RE: [Meta Thread] Pokerole Mystery Dungeon: Primal Shadows - Lord Windos - 09-20-2022
You know, I'm happy things are picking back up and old friendly faces are returning. Be even better if the other original members of the Skull Ruin campaign showed up, but alas I think they've forgotten all about us by now.

I've been skimming the thread, at least! The roleplay section of the forum is about all that's left, other than spambots.
RE: [Meta Thread] Pokerole Mystery Dungeon: Primal Shadows - Spiritmon - 09-20-2022
So people: Sneaking Attack or pass though the enemies?

Aiy, you have, and I still appreciate you popping by for a visit every now and then. Nothing can be like the old days when this place was all hustle and bustle, but we still have all our memories and good times preserved here at least. Until the server shuts down, that is, by which point I hope we all have our favorite threads backed up!
On another subject, I do hope your life and work has been treating you well. Is you dog doing okay, and how's the book coming along?

I can only imagine how big the file for a backup of the Skull Ruins thread would be (well, until if/when I actually do decide to back it up. Then I won't have to).

Sneak Attack. We could all use a good fight and the XP it gives, and it isn't a wise idea to leave potential enemies that can Move around an Ambush us later. We could try Diplomacy - and normally Platina would all be for it - but the presense of that Chandelure is enough to make her rethink her typical stance and just pummel it into the snow.
Speaking of which, Chandelure - we're dogpiling that sucker immediately, no debate. If Dragonstrike is referencing it's Movepools prior to Gen 8 we have to deal with Spread Smog that'll likely Poison us (Well, not Platina, but still), on top of Confuse Ray and Hex to rub salt in our wounds then immediately ignite them with Flame Burst - an that's not counting anything else it learn in its previous Evos or it's Lore threat potential. If it has it's Gen 8 Learnpool, however? Three words: Inferno, Memento, Curse. The first is the most Lethal Move that would instantly murder Platina almost guarantee if Keldeo didn't immediately go on firekeeping duty, Memento would cripple a Party member for who knows how long in the MD, and Curse is just as bad since it'll probably linger much longer than it should. We absolutely don't want to deal with anything this Ghost can throw at us, so we're going to focus it down and KO it ASAP.
The rest are threats, but much lesser ones. Platina hard counters Trubbish unless it has a Nasty Surprise and it doesn't know many threatening Moves until Lv 27 (unless it tags someone with Acid Spray for someone else to exploit). Cubchoo has Powder Snow and perhaps Icy Wind as Spread Moves, but it likely doesn't have that much SPE to really exploit them to the fullest, though we should be mindful it may be packing Frost Breath (Crit Move) and Slash (High Crit AND Lethal Move). The Mief, on the other hand, is likely going to be completely screwed over by Emolga just Nuzzling it to uselessness and then getting wombo comboed by their's and Platinas Flying STAB. It DOES have Detect and likely Fakeout, however, so it can become an annoyingly persistent threat if it plays smart, not to mention using Reversal or Fury Swipes to blitz someone down.
On a final note, how does an Ambush work exactly, @Dragonstrike ? Do we just get a free Round to pummel one Pokemon, or something?

One action each, same as the typical pokerole sneak attack rules. When the entire team gets to do that, it's quite powerful.

Can you Roll Initiatives in the Meta Thread later, so we know what order we're working with? Because if Platina can manage to go before any of the Special Attackers then Metal Sound is practically a free + 2 Damage to everyone with a Non-Normal Special Move (which I think everyone but maybe Kogeki has).

If you guys are going to engage, I'll roll intiatives for everyone, friend and foe alike. Just ignore the initiatives for the wild pokemon for the duration of the surprise round since they'll be ambushed. No takesy backsies once I roll initiatives though! You'll be committed to fighting at that point.
Just let me know when you've settled on a course of action.

Fair enough. I want to engage, as I said, but if Spiritmon and Phantom doesn't want to then that is that. Platina is Leader for this mission, but I don't want to drag my friends into a fight they don't want.
