Healing between fights would make it, like, a relatively neat puzzle. I mean, it'll be absolute hell still, because it's Pokemon Reborn and also a boss rush where you have to beat back 108 most-likely-overtuned enemies, but at least you can kind of figure out how to knock them all down.

If there's no healing between fights, though...

I legit don�t understand how you�d do it without healing*. Even if you�ve got some crazy stall setup and a team with a priority move or high speed or etc and your healer drops and the strategy breaks.

*Barring Gameshark or weird glitch shenanigans.

A large part of Reborn (and indeed, of any fanfiction) is trying to frame the little handwavey mechanics and plot contrivances of the original as being, actually, internally consistent aspects of physics and/or society with logical grounding, and inadvertently revealing in the process that this is a deeply stupid thing to want.

Definitely, though to be fair, this isn�t remotely limited to fan fiction. Answering questions that nobody seriously asked or cared about just to show consistency happens a lot even in professional fiction writing, especially when you�re trying to fit it around and into existing works.
