Also, is Necrozma still imune to Half-life? Because last round this make a huge difference. Even if it become immune once, I afraid things will get way more complicated. Also, could I revive Volcarona or Gaspar again to have more Pokemon ready fight against it? Against such beast, any Legendary Ally or sun bug could make a difference.

Not going to run away or panic. I already do that and almost put things to lost. There is also the countodown to consider too until day 20th, so I have limited time.

Heck, the fact we have a Meta Gaming thread speaks volume to that assumption, really! But I can understand not wanting to spoil the surprise for Spirit, if that was your intention.

Making your hints a little more obvious was about all the meta gaming I wanted to do, really.  It's easy to forget some of those little but incredibly major details.  And I'm not the storyteller yet, after all, though I am still trying to squeeze in practice wherever I can in preparation.

My one question now is: are Gaspar and Buzz Burner no longer fainted/able to be revived?

I have a feeling I know how Gaspar is able to be revived, to be honest...

Not Windos, but I'll offer my 2 cents for this.

I think what was stated means that Dark and Shadow based moves just deal neutral damage (so Necrozma isn't going to be nearly as susceptible to Dark and Ghost type moves, but nor is any other pokemon weak to those types of moves).  Without Prism Armor, though, Necrozma's weaknesses are going to be more exploitable.

The 'weather' seems to be altering Flinch's effect, so I don't think the status will stack, but Windos could say otherwise.

Also, could Necrozma be affected by Glare or even Nuclear Waste or even that is useless?

No risk, all reward, so I have no reason to not bite, right?  And Spirit just asked me about what I was thinking in a PM, and again, I'm not the storyteller yet, after all.

Gaspar copied this wild Necrozma almost perfectly, yes?  So...does that not mean that Gaspar generally has the same capabilities?  A wild Necrozma, as demonstrated just now and in the games, can undergo Ultra Burst without a Necrozium Z.  It just needs to absorb enough light, as Necrozma-DM just did with its Morning Sun.

The catch: Necrozma-U is FAR more powerful than Necrozma-DM, so its powers might be even harder to handle than before by my guesstimation.

Thrash is a Neutral, 5 power Normal move that Confuses you after you finish rampaging (but allows you to break the 5 action limit in this campaign if used at the end of your action chain for the Round).  Great if you exploit the action extension and are prepared for the Confusion, possibly a little mediocre if not.

Dual Chop is a super effective, double hit, 2 Power, Super Effective Dragon type move (which has a 1 D6 chance to Flinch per hit thanks to that Razor Claw, but you can only use it twice per Round because of each use taking up 2 actions of the 5 action limit every Round)

I believe Windos stated that Necrozma-U is outright immune to Paralysis, Poison, and the like (the more 'permanent' statuses).  Anything more temporary (such as Confusion or Flinch), it seems to still be vulnerable to if I'm interpreting that correctly.
