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

[Dragonstrike]

Yeap! Encore is awesome, as its like a lesser (if still awesome) version of Sleep, and its rather nice if you end up locking them into Stat Boosting moves or Recharge moves (As was in the case with Gyarados). If you want, I can have Ventus tutor Kirlia the move once he gets 2 more XP points, as the Speciality only costs 6 XP, right Iron?

You'd have been in much bigger trouble otherwise, 'cause Gulpin was going to Encore Kirlia!

Is that why you went Dang it before you announced the battle roll out?

Yeah, Move Tutoring is just like any other specialty.  It's under the Fight tab.  I have the rules for it in my notes as well.

I thought that was obvious.

Anyways, I knew Encore was a thing on the Gulpin line.  Nathan knew it.  But Kirlia doesn't necessarily know that on his own.  All he was concerned about was damage and dodging poison attacks!  That's why there wasn't a conditional evade for Encore.
