[Iron]

(1) Kirlia traces Sturdy. Nice one.

Ligno Round 1

Ligno's creepy flowing pink eyes open wide, their wooden shutters moving aside.

Glare 1
4 Dex + 2 Fight + 3 Intimidate -1 acc -3 moves = 5d6
(5)(2)(1)(6)(6)
Kirlia is paralyzed.

Hypnosis 1
(2)(1) It misses!

Incinerate 1 on Ditto
7 dice -2 actions = 5d6
(5)(2)(1)(2)(1) It misses, as the Ligno moves its rubbery leaves to protect its team.

Magnet Bomb 1
2 Dex + 1 Fight + 0
(2)(1)(1) The missile, though fired without finesse, zooms unerringly toward Kirlia.
2 Str + 2 power + 1 stab - 3vit = 2d6+1
(3)(6) Kirlia takes 2 dmg 5/7hp -1 pain

Ligno quivers. You aren't quite sure what he's doing. Your best guess is that it's charging an attack, since its leaves are twirling.

Hypnosis 2 on Ditto this time.
(3) Another miss for Kirlia's newest move.
Actually 0 dice, with pain and paralysis.

Incinerate 2
(2)(2)(5)(4)
2 Str +1 power + 1 stab -2 vit = 2d6
(2)(2)
The little monkey is getting upset at how fireproof these rubbery foes are.
"Do not take it so personally, Pansear. This is Nathan's battle, not ours."

Ligno does something else! It's still charging or still waiting.

So...not much has happened! During this battle, Ligno doesn't move much until the moment it makes an attack. It can then move its roots with some speed, wriggling them like a spider's legs, but despite all that movement it only progresses a few yards in a round. In terms of movement speed, a human is about 3x as fast as this Ligno in combat.

Ligno Round 2

"Nathan, I could try Pansear's Yawn instead, if you wish."
