Endeavor Lead

Endeavor sets the target's HP to the user's own — so from 1 HP it drags anything healthy down to 1 too, whatever its bulk and whatever it just did. Getting to that 1 HP is what a Focus Sash is for, which is why the gate is not an Ability but a BODY: fast enough (90+ Speed) to act on turn one, frail enough (260 or less bulk) that surviving at 1 HP is the expected state rather than a surprise, and carrying its own priority move to finish the foe before it heals or switches out.
