DK Vs Red, With Red As An Active Participant - DK wins. Like my man kidnapped Little Mac for a laugh. Pikachu isn't beating Little Mac.

DK Vs Red, Espeon Lead - If Espeon looks into DK mind, it will realize that it's a video game character and its reality is false. DK is completely aware of this fact and is glad to eat bananas, but Espeon is a weird cat who probably won't like that. DK kidnaps Red in the confusion. If Espeon just goes to attack DK, he has some psychic resistance (Returns) and the coconut gun has homing properties, he probably at least beats Espeon, though not without damage.

DK has to survive the guantlet, Pikachu lead - Depends 100% on order - namely, when Blastoise comes out. DK has the power to summon lightning on Storm Hill in Jungle Beat by clapping really hard, so if rain is active, that makes a LOT of his bad match-ups free (Charizard, Espeon is much easier, Venusaur's attacking moves are slowed down considerably). Pikachu and Snorlax are gimmes, but if DK has to fight Espeon and Charizard back-to-back, or 'zard gets Sunny Day up and is followed by Venusaur, I think he eats the L here.

DK has to survive the gauntlet, Charizard lead - Almost definite loss for DK.

DK brings a team of Squitter, Rambi, Squawks, Expresso, Enguarde, and Winky to battle Red's team - I feel as if Squitter is a stronger lead option than Pikachu - Sticky Web helps out against everyone other than Charizard tremendously and Squitter would lower Pika's speed enough that a Rambi sweep might be possible. Blastoise is potentially a spinner who could interrupt, but past Pika, I don't think anyone outspeeds Expresso, who has had everything but the ability to race bred out of him through Cranky Kong's abuse of golden feathers. I know the double flying coverage would normally hurt, but Red having Pikachu as his lead mitigates that - as long as DK gets the Squitter set-up before Rambi comes in and has Squawks to at least weaken Charizard fo Enguarde to finish off, he's golden.
