[Meta thread] Lord Windos' PokeRole Adventure : Celadon City Vandels

[Lord Windos]

2 things I'd actually like to ask here before we continue:

1. How does Arial's masochism trait work?  Is it something he has to declare for his pokemon to benefit from it, or is it passive?  If it's passive, Baltazar would have one extra strength for that first ancient power (or +2 for both its APs if it works off of Arial's pain instead of Baltazar's. Or maybe even +3 for both their pain combined?), and if the extra damage die added is a success, Volcarona is KOed before it can use the second Bug Buzz and Fiery Dance.  Coud make a big difference if that can happen...

2. Why is it the pink pokemon are the ones that seemingly have the ability to break the fourth wall? Just a random thought I had.

Works off only Arial's Pain, not his Pokémon, and its passive by default but can be 'turned' off at will, if they are knocked out from, or if the opponent has some method of disabling/neutralizing it. I'll add the Dice and see if that changes anything, but keep in mind that all his Pokémon suffer from a - 1 Defense Debuff while its active, so they are still going to suffer rather harshly under the Vampire's wrath.

Pink Pokémon are just so sensitive that they are aware of their own nature as fictional character, and can use that knowledge to break the forth wall in all sorts of interesting ways!

Also a few other things:

Big Buzz
Accuracy: DEX (*3) + Fight (2) + Channel (5) - 3 Actions - 1 Pain = 6D6 Dice
(3)(6)(4)(6)(2)(1) Hits!
Damage: STR (*4) + 3 + STAB + SE - Vitality (*4) = 4D6 + 1 Damage
(5)(1)(1)(6) Baltazar takes 2 Damage; 3/8 HP, - 2 Pain!
Effect: (3) Nope

The ones (1) shouldn't neutralize the other his, or am I wrong?

Big Buzz 2

(2)(5)(4) Hits!
(4)(6)(4)(1) Baltazar takes 4 Damage; 3/8 HP , - 2 Pain!
Effect: (5) Nope

The same reason. Baltazar in this case should be 3 no 4.

Fiery Dance

(6)(3) Hits!
Damage: STR (*4) + 3 + STAB (*2 [Surprise!]) + SE (*2 [Surprise!]) - Vitality (3) = 6D6 + 2 Damage!
(5)(4)(5)(6)(1)(2) Sekmet can't take the scorching hot moves of her opponents any longer, and collaspes on the ground!
Effect: (3)(4)(3)(6)(2) Volcarona is energized by his performance, gaining + 1 STR!

I count the total damage and was 4. So Sekmet would be able to survive with 2 HP

Double (1)s cancel out 1 Damage, not just individual (1)s, and Baltazar stakes SE damage from Big Buzz, so it still takes 2 Damage. Same deal with Sekmet, she takes 6 Damage due to QE damage from her Surprise! + 4 Damage from Fiery Dance. Unless Baltazar gets lucky with those 2-3 Extra Damage dice, the battle outcome is going to be the same regardless.
