Battle[]
Hell Bubbles.
Blugu has two attacks that it may use, Bodyblow which is a weak attack, and Hell Bubbles. Blugu seldom uses Hell Bubbles, which may inflict Sleep on a single character, and never uses if all characters are under Paralyzed status. However since neither Blugu, nor any of the opponents it appears alongside with, use attacks that inflict Paralyzed, this scenario never happens under normal circumstances.
It is weak against Lightning, so it is a good idea to use Bolt on it, however, regular attacks will suffice as Blugu is not a powerful enemy.

Declare Count = Random[0..3]
If (any opponent has Paralyzed) Then: Use Bodyblow on random opponent with Paralyzed
Else: Use Bodyblow on random opponent
If (Count == 0 OR Count == 1) Then: Count = Count + 1
2/3 Chance: Count = 1
1/3 Chance: Count = 3
If (any opponent does not have Paralyzed) Then: Use Hell Bubbles on random opponent without Paralyzed
Else If (any opponent has Paralyzed) Then: Use Bodyblow on random opponent with Paralyzed
Else: Use Bodyblow on random opponent
Count = 0
Etymology[]
Its English name may be a portmanteau between "blue" and "fugu". The Japanese name is a portmanteau between the French "poisson" ("fish") and "cute", probably derived from "execute".
