[Meta thread] Lord Windos' PokeRole Adventure : Celadon City Vandels

[Lord Windos]

Yeah, considering how similar Reiner and Clairs' personalities are, I'm not surprised she's taking this rather personally.  And his Kingdra knowing Draco Meteor is practically certain to tick her off to no end.  Oh, and the fact that he now has an Extreme Speed Dragonair probably will too if she finds out.  Yeesh...the elders still not passing her on that compassion test of theirs probably still annoys her too, seeing as she still hadn't passed it by the time of the Johto games.

And fair enough on the surprises.  Gotta keep it challenging somehow, right?

Oh, 'ticked off' will be putting it softly as possible when she figures out you have an Extreme Speed Dragon and Draco Meteor Kingdra. 'Murderously Enraged' is not quite right, but she at only 2 or 3 level down from that Anger Point at most, mate. I don't think lives will be lost, but there is a very strong possibility of property damage is things are not negotiated right....

Well, that last post did an EXCELLENT job of putting my thought process through the ringer. Had to think VERY carefully about what I was going to have Reiner say...

If you have been thinking of what to post for what seem to be the better part of 3 Hours, perhaps I should stop throwing curve balls and unexpected surprises like this, and keep things simple for the most part. To many cooks spoil the broth, and too many exciting/interesting things can prove...overwhelming.

Don't worry, I took a good break from thinking about it for an hour or so at least (played some LoZ: BotW so I would have to think about other stuff.  Wasn't actually paying attention to the time, either, so...).  It was a good curveball, just one with a lot of careful wording involved because of the nature of it.  

Plus, it helped Reiner realize he might be able to use Trick, so there's that too  

You're not wrong in that too many interesting events can be overwhelming, though.  I definitely agree on that front.  Still, I don't think it's gotten to that point quite yet.

Well, I glad you liked it! If Chancey won the second roll, she and Officer Angelica would have had massive nosebleeds and passed out, forcing you to flee the scene and drop the Big Nugget. How you did so would determine how much Warning Level points you got. Glad that didn't happen!

Oh, and you have a Police Officer under your control now, even though you didn't mean for this to happen! I was expecting you to yank your hand away from the contact or use your psychic awareness to snap them out of it or cut them off from you, but nope, you kept them linked up with each other and YOU, and now you have two pretty sleeper agents, to do with whatever you choose! Hehehe!

Basically, they will hang around that same area in the whole festival, and when you ever want a task done, they will do it to the best of their current abilities. They can divert attention away from you (Reducing Police Scruitiny) , cover up a crime of yours once per day, serve as your personal backup as your control over them strengthens, and even have them do encounters for you after a certain point. They have a Chansey, Golbat, and an Alola Dugtrio as her Pokémon, and have their own items and resources to call upon, at your leisure. You can only have one Mindcontroled person during this campaign, but you accidently choose a pretty good one!

I'll handle their stats and specialties, but if you want a list of her Pokémon's moves, just ask!

Huh...well, that worked out...sorta well then...this has some interesting implications for Reiner in the future, that's for sure...

Yup, a list of available moves would be great.  I'll note it down in Rocket's PC for reference.

:Chancey:
HP: Base + Vitality
Suprises: + 2 Insight, can use two items
Items: Lucky Punch and Lucky Egg
Moves: Wish, Protect, Softboil, Seismic Toss, Heal Bell, Thunder Wave, Stealth Rock, Helping Hand, Counter, Shadow Ball
Ability: Nature Cure - Works as in the rule book, and can produce an Egg once per day or activation of ability that, upon use, cures all Status and heals 2 HP; no HP reduction applies to this item
Notes: Has 4 Happiness and 5 Loyalty to their master, but has 7 Loyalty and the same level of Happiness to Reiner. Will do anything for them, including wanton destruction and serial killing, the same as their master. Yikes! Normally sweet and kind, if a bit to curious for their own good...highly empathetic for its species, and knows how to determine the intensions of most people almost instantly. With a Chosen one like you, though, that got turned on its head...

:Golbat:
HP: Base + Vitality
Item: Sitrus Berry
Suprises: + 1 Evasion and Fight
Moves: Snatch, Heatwave, Nasty Plot, Acrobatics, Poison Fang, Mean Look, Confuse Ray, U-turn, Roost
Ability: Inner Focus - Prevent All Flitching, let's user ignore all Pain Penalizations and Accuracy debuff.
Notes: 4 Happiness and 5 loyalty to master, but (currently) holds no loyalty towards you. Once they since up with thier master, though... Normally a flightly and dodgy bastard, they focus move on locking down an opponent with Mean Look, Confuse Ray, and Toxic Fang, and then keep dodging as they slowly wear themselves out. Was originally a Team Rocket member Pokémon, before it was taken by the police and 'reabiliteated' and given to Angelica. Despite future mind control, they would be more than thrilled to return to a life of crime; it was what they were born and breed to do!

:Alola Dugtrio:
HP: Base + Fight
Item: Rocky Helmet
Special: + 2 Defense
Moves: Earthquake, Pursuit, Iron Head, Memento, Stone Edge, Flash Cannon, Sleep Talk
Ability: Tangling Hair - As described in rulebook, + 1 Allure and Binds foes that make contact with this Pokémon for 3 rounds. (only Ghosts, Shed Shell users, and U-turn users can escape)
Note: 2 Happiness and 2 Loyalty, unaffected by mind control (Steel typing is tough to get through!), but doesn't seem to care about their master's condition anyway. They were trained to follow orders, not to question them, so that is what they will do! Even if it means doing things that blatently go against good sense, morals, and decency!

NOTE: These Pokémon don't count towards your quota, since they still are technically owned by Angelica. Of course, if you asked her, she would be delighted to give them over, but that would just be a waste of a valuable resource....a willing servent, hehehe....

I'm calling it a night, Dragonstrike, since I want to get some rest, and let you get some rest as well. Hope you have a productive and easy day at work tomorrow!

I actually don't have work tomorrow, so it'll definitely be an easy day!    This was an excellent week to pick up my Switch and do some quality roleplay as well!

Thinking about it, was Shiinotic holding an item during the Shroom Doom battle? I just remembered that Breloom was holding a Miracle Seed, so that's getting added to the Inventory. I also assume Growlithe hadn't been holding anything when he was snatched, so is that accurate as well?
