[@Digizel] You are the first person to bring this up, but it's not a bad thing. Now, not that you're wrong, and, again, if it proves to be a problem, I will find some way to correct it. What that way is, I don't know. Maybe it's just me, but I do like the slight randomness. And, well, there's what someone wants, (speaking in character, with your Agumon still as the example) and what they can feasibly do. Agumon may want to be able to flail to his heart's content, but if he were sickly, for one reason or another, he'd be less likely to be able to do that. Like, anyone may want to be able to be an olympic runner, but they can't always be in that physical condition.

(Also, not to be derisive, but on the subject of "odds are", that's all you can do in the way of the plot getting past the first major fight- you guys could lose.)
