If any of the above are in effect or you've had 3 of the above effects already today:

With 0 charges

• You open the bag and release a snail. Your opponent watches as it slowly crawls away. It's very boring.
• You open the bag and release a huge swarm of gnats. They fly down your opponent's throat, causing him to gag and sputter.

• You open the bag and release a flying squirrel. It dive-bombs your opponent for X damage.
• You open the bag and release a platypus. It simultaneously confuses and bites your opponent, dealing X damage.
• You open the bag and release a skunk. It hoses your opponent down, dealing X damage.

With 2 charges

• You open the bag and release a reindeer. It begins peacefully foraging in a nearby bush, but then something spooks it and it tramples your opponent for X damage. That something was you yelling at it, by the way.
• You open the bag and release a cow. It gores your opponent for X damage before calmly walking away in search of greener pastures. Literally.
• You open the bag and release a hyena. It stands around laughing at you for a while, before charging at your opponent and biting him for X damage.

With 3 charges

• You open the bag and release a stampeding hippopotamus. It tramples your opponent for X damage before thundering off into the distance. You like those things a lot more than you like squareopotamuses.
• You open the bag and release a massive, frigid wooly mammoth. It doesn't forget to gore and trample your opponent for X damage.
• You open the bag and release a 500 pound gorilla. In addition to sleeping wherever he wants, he beats your opponent silly, dealing X damage.
• You open the bag and release a shark riding on the back of an elephant. They maul/gore your opponent for X damage before thundering off into the distance, just eating and trampling everything they see.

X seems to be 5-10 for 0 charges, 10-20 for 1, 20-40 for 2, and 40-80 for 3.

Charges:

Using any sort of Mysticality-based skill (including Hobopolis skills) causes the bag to charge once per combat. Each adds a charge to the bag (up to 3 maximum), improving the type of animal you can pull out of it.

• First time: The Bag o' Tricks suddenly feels a little heavier.
• Second time: The Bag o' Tricks begins to wriggle around in your hand.
• Third time: The Bag o' Tricks begins squirming around more urgently.
• Fourth and beyond: The Bag o' Tricks continues to wriggle around in your hand.

• The message about the gorilla sleeping wherever it wants is a reference to the joke "Where does a 500 pound gorilla sleep?"
• The message about a shark riding an elephant references the following Deep Thought by Jack Handey: "Contrary to what most people say, the most dangerous animal in the world is not the lion or the tiger or even the elephant. It's a shark riding on an elephant's back, just trampling and eating everything they see."
