[Spiritmon]

And there Mega Garchomp, with that scythes in his hands is simple his arms melt and revamped thanks to the energy of the Mega Evolution...thats make me rethink about use Mega Evolutions.

Ven's not going to butcher clearly Rare/Sought after Pokémon, as that is just a waste in all sense of the word! Well, except if they are Fairy types and/or if that particular 'mon did something to warrant him wanting to murdalate it. He'd respect them keeping their distance, if they don't give him hell about it.

Noooope, not Fairies please! D: Give them all to Shiva to enjoy or make sure she never ever figures out what he did to it... It seems ike members of Fairy Type are kinda rare in Chreshire anyway as there haven't been a single wild Encounter of one so far since the Journey/Campaign has started, and you said that Ventus would leave them alone unless they openly are up to no good/mess with him; remember, dear? And even if, let Shiva handle the situation if she's present or nearby while Ven and/or Apsis make sure she's not in open danger to allow him to keep the protectiveness over her and ease his fear and anger a little.

And acording the Pokedex from Alola, when Gyarados Mega Evolve, his mind become ferocious and his only think is to turn everything to ashes. Neat huh?

That's not neat, that scares me. o.o I'm not much of a Fan of the concept of Megaevolution anyway in the games, the only one I sometimes trigger is Mega-Metalynx in Uranium because I like how it looks when m-evolved. *shrugs*

Well, one detail the alolan pokedex neglects to mention is if a strong bond with a trainer helps prevent the doom and gloom in most of the entries for the mega evolutions.

In the anime, Korrina's mega Lucario acted like the alolan dex entries described: ruthlessly and uncontrollable.  Once her bond with Lucario was more solidified, though, she could perform the mega evolution with no adverse side effects.

And in Super Mystery Dungeon, all pokemon that Mega Evolve go Berserk if they maintain the effects of Mega Evolution for too long, but can handle it perfectly fine for short periods of time.

So I personally think that having that strong bond with your pokemon is essentially only a requirement for a safe mega evolution with no drawbacks.

I just had one of the very best sessions of D&D I've ever had, folks!

Back to this game for a time, then I'll be locking the threads from dinnertime today (New Year's Eve) until January 3rd (I'm traveling).

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Oh, really? Neat. What was so great about it, if I may ask? ^^ Also wishing you safe traveling!

Scanner seems to work normally again, so I was able to edit in the mentioned sketch here.---> http://pokemonuranium.co/forum/showthrea...5#pid34615

Now I'm tempted to give Shiva a second point in Intimidate-Speciality.

My brother ran it. It was the Starfinder RPG, which has rules for space opera roleplaying. The plot was really cool, with a mysterious physicist hinted at behind almost everything important. It felt awesome, like Cave Johnson in Portal II. Like we knew every clue would come back to the Elliot family, but we were never sure how!

And then the plot was based on Midsummer Night's Dream, but everything was technology instead of magic. Ventus would hate it lol. The FAE were "Fabricated Autonomous Constructs" - cubes that projected an elven avatar. The elves lived in what is basically hyperspace, in the tail of a comet.

Just all in all really cool, and all the roleplaying went great. I wish I could say the dice rolling went great too, but it did not.

But only because he has a temporary weakness to it.  Won't always be the case.
