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

[Dragonstrike]

@Spiritmon and @Lord Windos, how do you want to coordinate this poisonous lumineon battle?

Hmm.....well, if its possible, I'd have Terra summon Oinari in the form of the giant Tentacruel he fought with her so long ago underwater, have them use the Frozen Roar in that form to instantly force the Leomineon to instantly route in sheer terror caused by the trickster fox's appearance and that Moves own mechanics, then quickly return Oinari before she could start drowning. If that's not possible, I'll have to look through what Pokemon he brought with him, and see what I/him can cook up against them....

That might account for half of them, seeing as there's 12.  Probably good to have a backup plan for a more drawn out battle regardless. We're definitely not going to get out of this completely unscathed. I'm expecting Nathan will have to use at least a few resources to deal with the negative statuses quickly. And someone's gonna get stung, too...

[Lord Windos]

Also, I volunteer Terra to be the one stung , as he has the most Vitality out of everyone, and his Steel Blessing may or may not blunt the effects their toxin has on him.

That, and I have an alt plan if Operation Scare the Leo Fish don't work (Or it doesn't work entirely), I'd send out Sar alongside Oinarii, whose Ability Own Tempo would completely blank the Leomineons Confusion, and have her spam Confusion whenever she deigns to do so. She could also use her Plot Device to try and call forth a random Water Pokemon to help the group out, or get one of those poisonous fishies to turn traitor to the glorious sparkly sloth queen.

@Spiritmon and @Lord Windos, how do you want to coordinate this poisonous lumineon battle?

My idea is use Heart Earthpower to call Wide Guard to use as a strong defense to everyone. That way those Poison fish will not cause us problems. That way you and Terra can act in the offense. Netune could use many attacks as possible of Mud Slap while Elektross use Charge Beam, Spark or any other Electric move.

Or a more dangerous method: Everyone to stay behind Mega Swampert while me and Elektross use Discharge. It will hit most Poison Lumineon, if not all of them.

Risk? A lot. Heart and Elektross can hit the soldiers or you guys. That's why stay behind Swampert is a idea. He is immune to electric and might be big enough to protect most people. You could even use that Sword on me or Elektross if you want.

[Spiritmon]

I could also try to calm down those Lumineon using Heart Earthpower and tell them to back off. And summon Aegislash and wield him, since he would be wield by Heart.

*hinthint* Terra, not Ventus. ^^

Derp.  Fixed.  Thanks for the catch, Phantom.  UCC's been really busy lately due to the suspect tests.  And I'm prepping for my Pokerole game, too.

Speaking of them (The UCC), how are they fairing? I can't get on their to check myself, as either my computer or my internet provider just won't let me ever join Discord anymore. Otherwise, you'd probably see me a lot more on there actually helping out in these long quiet periods.

Also, how'd they like my Guide I sent them via you? Kinda curious about that, now that I think of it/them.

[Dragonstrike]

I like the Wide Guard idea, honestly.  And using Sari to counter the Confusion completely sounds like an excellent idea.

Discharge sounds like an insane risk underwater, particularly if it were PDed.

Err.....Discharge underwater in saltwater? That's practically BEGGING Iron to come up with a way to give everyone in Range of it Lethal Electric Damage, plus whatever nasty effects he'd cooked up. Salt Water is ESPECIALLY conductive, so Electric Moves in it could have AoE effects easily stapled onto them, or worse. 

I'd much prefer the Wide Guard tactic, followed up by Ground Move spam from Swampert onto however many Leomineon remain after Oinari Frozen Roars the lot of them. 

Oh, and that reminds me: does Nathan's Kingdra have Twister? Because that's a Spread Move that can easily be Sworded and spammed, and Sari can be convinced to body any Confuse Moves to prevent them from getting dazed and Targeting the group with it.

Ubers so far:
Urayne (both forms)
Lanthan
Nucleon
M-Inflagetah
Xenoqueen

Current Suspect:
M-Archilles (on hold because...)

Current Emergency Vote (just started):
Banning Nuclear Moves and ways to use Nuclear moves on non-Nuclear types (Hafli Natural Gift, Sketch, Assist)
(M-Archilles suspect will be extended a week if this passes)

A lot of new people have been joining the server lately, and the activity levels seem to be going up.  We also recently recruited new staff members to help with managing things (meaning I'm not the only active Staff member anymore) ^_^

Haven't brought up the guide yet because it's been busy and we're trying to sort out the current suspects right now.

He doesn't, unfortunately.  Mizu could learn Twister if I spent some of her exp, but I'm trying to hold off on spending exp on it if I can since Dragonair learn it for free.

And due to the risk of Storm Drain, Bubble and Surf probably aren't very good ideas either.

I am curious if Sniper would have any kind of effect on a critical PDed move, though, honestly. If not on the power of the move, at least the appearance of it.

Hmm....the Ubers right now is what I thought it'd be, but I'm somewhat surprised that regular Inflagetah hasn't gotten on there yet, seeing as it can completely outclass its Mega with just a Life Orb and Sword Dance. That, and N-Jerbolta, as Quick Charge Radio Acid is mega scary, especially Choice Specced.

Nuclear Moves ban on Non-Nucmons? Sounds reasonable enough, but that won't stop the root of the problem (IE: Nuclear Moves in general). In the sim, a Corrupt Nucmon with perfect IVs and the right is perfectly possible unless they specifically only allow you to use 'uploaded' Corrupt Nucmons, so they'll still be problematic enough if players dedicate whole team styles to facilitate their devastation.

Oh....well, that sorta bums me out, but I understand. Can't clutter the sub with that while suspect testing of other Pokemon is taking place. Great to here the UCC is thriving right now, though!
