[Meta thread] Iron's PokeRole Adventure: The Skull Ruins

[Dragonstrike]

So, Iron, finally got the time to update my Charasheet and make notes (on paper) about things to remember. Stumbled over two questions.

1. You told me to replace Cute with Dexerity as it called for that in a roll. From that and given there will be more rolls from my side using Social Attributes (currently Entertainment and Nasty Plot), am I right in the assumption that whenever these are needed, they use the Chara's Dexerity Stat? I planing to level up on that stat after the Shellder-Encounter, because it would be weird doing so mid-battle.

2. Concerns Plus-Minus ability. Effect is known, raises Strenght by 2 points. We're not inside the games, so... what if I only use one of the pair (Minun) actively in a 1-vs-1 Trainer battle, and the other one (Plusle) is standing next to me, a few meters apart? Will Minun's ability still be triggered?

3. Seeing that only Plusle knows Nuzzle, and Minun's XP cost for this move are 0, I'm quite interested in teaching this move to the negatively charged rodent as well. Possible?

I can answer number 3 for ya.  Moves that cost 0 exp are free to learn for that pokemon.  It's as simple as taking the time to teach it since the pokemon essentially already knows how to use the move at some level.

All of a sudden, I'm glad it's Nathan with the pink pearl instead of Ventus. That swimmer would have been mesmerized by it in all likelihood...

[Lord Windos]

On the other hand, Nathan would have been flirted with by an older woman, if he elected not to get the *Valuable Item. Which would have been equally funny in its own right~

Oh, and you can have the pearl. Its more useful for Psychic types, anyway, but be sure to show the rest of the party. Ventus might have something to say about it, after all.

1. Yeah, pretty much all attack rolls are now based on Dexterity, unless there's a good reason to use something else. So just as Strength and Special were merged, Dex and Social were all merged too.

2. They both have to be in the battle; it's an emotional response.

3. Just as Dragonstrike says. I thought the wild encounter would be more interesting if only one knew Nuzzle, but the moment you take a bit of time to teach them a 0 xp move, they'll learn it. Learning it from their partner in battle would be one interesting way to do this.

I wonder what that swimmer would think if she found out Nathan not only has a Staryu, but a giant, really rare, and incredibly valuable pink pearl...probably better for Ventus that we don't find out, though.

Shiva is there a reason you gave STAB to Swift and Quick Attack?

Probably just copy pasta errors.

[Iron]

That is what I figured, I checked for abilities like Energizate or to see if the moves had changed flavor in this game or something. I'll type it up as non-stab for now.

[Dies Irae]

Not bidding on the Shellder. Bigger fish to fry. Seriously @Iron?

A Voltorb in the middle of nowhere on a public route? Not that I want one personally, but unfortunately, these things are way too dangerous for Vincent to just leave lying around. "Setia dan Bakti" (Loyalty and Service) and all that jazz.

[Iron]

Great, now Larry AND Vincent think I'm coldhearted.
