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

[Lord Windos]

Yep, that basically the point. If I made my Pokémon into an egotistical macho man, I dang well want to correct that folly, and what better way than some training from hell? Essentially he'd do his best against your Pokémon, fail either miserably or valiantly, and gain some valuable experience in the process, all under the guise of toughening him up for the future ahead! It will also encourage him to take on a more...resolute/toughened mindset, rather than just DETERMINATION!

Sound like a plan, @Dragonstrike? It would be good XP for all your Pokémon, and I hope that Iron gives some XP to Michael as well, so win win?

Certainly!  Nathan will be more than willing to help.

Though it might have to be saved for a later day.  That kind of training is probably going to take an entire day due to the amount of resting that's going to have to be done in between battles.  Or maybe half or a third of a day if we're using a Center to heal in between.

Michael will probably also end up getting more out of it overall than any one of Nathan's pokemon, since all the exp he gained would be pooled into a single pile, as opposed to four or five.

Well, since I THINK the whole group is going to camp out in the woods for a couple of days, that would be the perfect time for that short of training for the both of our 'mons! It would also give your and my chara plenty of time to make a battle plan for the gym leader, so that's a bonus as well (on top of regaining some lost Will Points!)!
