Here's a Sylveon being cute to soothe any conflict in the air. ._. I'll head to bed now.

Dont need to be worry. Conflict already over.

......I can't leave for a day to do some work and studying without the thread having a near meltdown, eh? My my my.........well, at least everything resolved itself more or less in a sastifactory manner, so I don't really have anything to add to the ongoing dialogue of releasing Merspirt early other than 'Eh, its not so bad, Nathan knew what he was doing' and 'Finding them will be harder, but Iron has it covered well' .

Ven himself would be a little surprised about that, but it be a pleasant/proud short of thing rather than bad, as the boy has honestly accomplished a great deed by freeing a Legend and further proved he's willing to do what's necessary , even if its costly or requires tons of self reflection.

Not going to post right away , since I STILL have other stuff to do, but I'll close out the Flashback when I get to it and start on catching up with my stuff for the day. Its been REAL busy this past week......Exam studying and note taking, bah......!

Oh, Iron, I noticed something... Thanks to Helios' Inner Focus Ability, he doesn't flinch from the Rock Slide and therfore is able to perform the asked second Kinesis on Solrock. Can you quick-roll out this Action (4 dice in Accuracy) to see whether Solrock will suffer -1 Accuracy as well?

Seems so, my dear? Nope, seriously, with that affinity of the group to get into inner-party conflicts without too much of an effort I'm feeling very relieved and delighted that Ventus and Shiva have developed a close allience during Chapter I despite their clear differences and age gap of 7 biological years, and will soon even forge a bond of love. It feels like it's slightly/subliminally their job to bring some positivity back to the group, but even if it's not really, I still enjoy it. ^^

Please don't you forget to receive and quick-react to the paper note she has left you there when Ven does return to dorm and turns in for the night, Windos! Here, I'll link it just in case: http://pokemonuranium.co/forum/showthrea...1#pid38641 When you're having more free time, that is.

@PhantomUnderYourDesk

I'm curious why you are not using Bubble with Marill, as while Bubblebeam does more damage a Spread STAB SE move will quickly rack up damage on BOTH of them, dealing at least 2 Damage to each and 4-5 Damage max.

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Because Marill doesn't know Bubble, only Water Gun and Bubble Beam as Water STAB. Humm, she could learn Bubble for 7xp, but I'd rather save some XP for somethingelse... For now, at least. Oh, and I don't want to instant-defeat my foe via SE-STAB-Spread move.

@Iron

So, what's the exact ruling we're using for what kind of damage Light Screen/Reflect reduces? Are we just doing -1 damage for everything, or is there a split between them for balance purposes?

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

I was told that my Light Screen reduces the damage of all ranged attacks.

[Iron]

Yep, it works on ranged attacks, including something like Rock Slide or Poison Sting. If in doubt, I'll just look at whether the move is Special or Physical, or use Brawl vs Canalize. Counter/Mirror Coat works the same way.

[Dragonstrike]

I was told that my Light Screen reduces the damage of all ranged attacks.

Ah, so that would include Rock Slide...gotcha.  Makes sense.  Just wanted some clarification for my notes.  Carry on.

Wow, Grid wiffed Thunder Wave so hard that Valder's frog ended up evolving because of it! Now that is what I call 'lucky!' Still, Thunder Wave feels a little bit......scumy to use, especially when you specified no items are to be used and therefore no curing Status Ailments will go away. That, and now with Sticky Web all of Vald's Pokémon but Ghastly will be getting the DEX debuff. Ouch....
