I deliberately meant debut move for Heart's Pokemon, as he said we wanted to have it on Phantump.

While Charging this Move, other moves will not affect the user. If the target made a Shielding Action the Shield is destroyed and wont have any effect. Neat huh?

It indeed is. Make me proud on your debut, namesake move! (ノ°∀°)ノ⌒･*:.｡. .｡.:*･゜ﾟ･*☆

Well, technically, it debuted all the way back in the gym battle against Chuckles...it just wasn't used by a player at the time.

Thanks Phantom^^I just hope Phantom Force cause a good damage against that Lairon (I already think it will). Its a shame its a Charging move, or I should cause a mess. At least when charging Viktor is imune to any kind of attack. Witch is a good thing.

Also: Chuckles?

"Focus Viktor! Lets do our best against Lairon! First of all, use your new move: Phantom Force two times against Lairon! Lets see how he can handle against this kind of move! Then finish with Confuse Ray!"

Spirit, one VERY important thing to note about Phantom Force is it is a Charge Move.  That means you have to take one action to charge it, then the next to attack.  Using it two times in the same round would require 4 actions (with the appropriate accuracy penalties) unless you'd used your last action of the previous round to begin charging the attack (then you'd only need 3 actions to use the move twice in the same round).

Your current orders would require 5 actions to perform, which you don't have enough dice in the accuracy pool for Confuse Ray unless you want to try using a Luck die (you'd have to roll a (6) to succeed, or something really bad might happen).

Now I know where to invest my XP. In Dexterity and Fight

Some Brawl and Canalize would help too.

However, your accuracy calculations still aren't quite right.  As I said, 4 actions to use two Phantom Forces, meaning you have to apply a 4 action accuracy penalty because your round looks like this:

Charging PF 1 (-4)

Phantom Force 2 (-5)

Charging PF 3 (-6)

Phantom Force 4 (-7)

Accuracy is rolled when the attack is made, so your accuracy pools look like this:

3 Dex + 3 Fight + 3 Brawl - 5/7 Actions = 4/2 D6

However, if Charging a Charge Move is your last action of the round, then your first action of the next round is to attack with the move (with the appropriate accuracy penalty applied from the number of actions you're taking in the next round).

Okay then let me make some changes then

[Iron]

The charging part takes an action. To use Phantom Force twice, you need four actions, which means your very first use of it will have a penalty of -4.

You can also charge/use/charge for only three actions, and then next round use/charge/use.

Also: Chuckles?

Not gonna say much more on him here besides this: he's the gym leader of Corsage Port.  Nathan and Ventus faced and defeated him some time before Heart joined the party.

@PhantomUnderYourDesk

Razor Leaf has a -1 accuracy penalty you need to account for, so that's 7 D6 accuracy. Ledyba is Bug/Flying, so that's -2 damage from Razor Leaf as well. Ember should also have 5 D6 accuracy due to the -2 pain.

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Edited. I probably shouldn't calculate dice pools after 2am, lolz. Means I'll off to bed then.

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Alright @Iron, I've just edited my battle orders a little to have Braixen use a different move than Ember, the Round can be rolled out now. I rather risk not defeating Ledyba within this Round than spectacularly fainting her. ._.

Just went back and checked the Fountain of Pokemon Brotherhood's list of water pokemon contributions (which is here) on a whim. Kingdra's on there! As is Castform! Of course, one of those is disobedient, and the other doesn't currently know any water moves...hmmm....
