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

[Dragonstrike]

Good choice - the Bugcatcher sends out a Butterfree!

"Oh no. This won't take long, will it?"

Ventus just gives the man a small smile, before shaking his head in affirmation. Ariel, noticing that she was fighting a Bug-Flying type of all Pokémon, smiled deviously and let out a malevolent chitter. She liked battling, of course, but she will enjoy this one. Still, she though, it was better safe than sorry, so its steeled herself for combat, before she let loose a stream of Bubbles at the butterfly!

Order: Ariel will use Harden as her first action of the round, then follow up with Bubble attacks until she can't do them no more! If she somehow didn't get off the Harden, she'll just focus on using Bubble as much per round, then.

Moves

Harden
Accuracy: VIT (2) + Survival (3) - Consec. Actions (2) = Pool 3
Effect: Raise Def. by 1

Bubble
Accuracy: DEX (2) + Fight (2) + Channel (2) - Hustle (1) - Consec Actions (3 and 4) = 2 Dice on first Attack, 1 Dice on second
Damage: STR (2) + 2 + STAB (1) + Hustle (2) = Pool 7
Effect: *Lower DEX [ 1] 1*

Are you trying to do 3 actions in one round? You don't actually have enough dice. You have to subtract the number of actions you're doing, then -1 cumulative on top of that.

So your base pool for Harden is 5, then you'd subtract 3 for your number of actions, giving you 2 accuracy dice total.
Your base pool for Bubble is 5 after Hustle, subtract 4, 1 dice total.
Then the final one would be 0 dice, so that's not possible.

Hustle should only affect damaging moves, no?
