[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Iron]

Initiatives:
Helios (1) +5 = 6
Chansey: (1) +4 Dex +3 survival = 8

Director North Round 1

Double Edge
4 Dex + 1 Fight + 1 Brawl -2 actions = 4 dice
(4)(2)(4)(5) - 3 successes
Evasion: 5 dice -3 actions = 2 dice
(2)(1)
1 Str + 5 power +1 STAB -3 vit = 4d6, holding back
(4)(2)(2)(6) Helios takes 1 dmg
Recoil: (5) Chansey takes 1 dmg

Chansey comes barreling up, but Helios is too focused on his new move to dodge properly. Chansey stomps his toe. All the many copies of Helios clutch their foot.

Double Team
(6) +2 Evasion

"Excellent. Your Pokemon succeeded in using Double Team despite being surprised by Chansey's speed! That shows good control, as does the evolution to Kadabra. Now may I see an attacking move in response to Chansey's next move? Chansey, get under Kadabra's skin!"

Growl
(2)(4)(3) -1 str for Helios

Confusion
(4)(1)(4)
5 dice -4 Def = 1d6
(3)
Chance: (4)

"Great job. I'm happy with what I see. Chansey, used Softboiled and get ready for Ventus."

(Normally I'd replace the first move with Evasion, rather than the second, but I figured you'd be willing to accede to the Director's requests for moves that demonstrate difficulty. Since Double Team is new to him in combat, I picked that one.)

Director North Round 2

Initiative: (1) lol. Chansey goes first again.

Chansey is holding a Soothe Bell.

"Chansey, knock this Noibat around a bit until he sees sense! Or stars, as the case may be! Really rattle him! No need to hold back!"

Double Slap
(5)(6)(2)
(1)(3)
(1)

Just one hit. This can only do one dice per hit.
(3) No damage to the little tank, but Noibat is spun 90 degrees in the air. It does anger him, but Ventus is radiating control. The loyal dragonbat gives a very calm Screech, which is actually kind of a difficult feat!

Screech
(6)(1)(1)(5)(5)
-2 def for Chansey

Gust
(6)(3)(6)(3)
3 str +2 power +1 stab -4 vit = 2 dice
(1)(1)

Gust
(6)(6)(5)
(6)(3) Chansey takes 1 dmg.

"Ok! I'm more impressed with the careful Screech than the simple attack moves. That shows real skill! If you'll wait a few minutes, I'll put my offer in writing and you may sign it. This offer does not chain you to any obligation, but it will give you peace of mind that Gothitelle and Kingdra will be yours at the end of all your hard labor!"

The not-a-contract he gives each of you seems to be exactly what he said.
