. BIO

a strategist plain and simple. aids its team by manipulating the battlefield. always stacks in a grid pattern, never offset. afraid of water. very docile and calculating, in the rare case its temper is ignited its "eyes" invert-- black glowing shapes on white squares, not many have seen Checkers in this state. performs best in and is suited to team battles. struggles when fighting alone. would love minecraft.
'speech' sounds similar to a reverbing guitar and can vary in pitch, can also make the presumed clicks and clacks. is better understood by other ultra beasts or those who have experienced other planes of existance/alternate worlds.
particularly likes sharing enigma berries with others rather than eating the berry itself.

. NOTES

inspired by deep blue and chess computers.

connects a foe physically touching it with itself or an ally, then employs its power to exchange the targets' abilities. this move is more likely to fail on those with levitate and may not affect floating pokemon.
