If Mizu was wrapped specifically around one of Poliwrath's limbs, would it be any more difficult to hit her with the full accuracy and/or force of Body Slam (since he wouldn't be able to use the full weight of his torso to hit her without potentially hitting himself as well) and Hypnosis (she doesn't have to look directly at Poli's torso/eyes to burn him the same way every time with Dragon Rage)?
Can't do much about Mind Reader and Wake Up Slap since the nature of those moves is different, obviously, but preventing 2 of his 4 moves from being effective would be rather strong.
Nah, it's just not possible to be that specific in the heat of battle. One thing you can use is the mud at the bottom of this rather shallow lake - I could apply the exact same rules Shiva used, where -2 accuracy on a move stirs up 1 CD worth of mud. Something like that.
Actually, thinking about it, I could use the same rule of thumb for an attempt to wrap around a limb. Your Brawling would be less accurate but if successful you'd have a chance of getting in Poliwrath's way.
But it will always be worse than an official move designed to lower accuracy.
