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

[Dragonstrike]

Spoiler

That does sound like a thought. The negative aspect would be that it beraves US of our supplies and we have to continue our way without food + rely on Tropius' fruit and slain wild Pokemon by Apsis and Yena. A normal human can go a few days without food, that's true, and we're having enough Water Types to not dehydrate...

On the matter of a 'fair trade', I've had a thought: Do a Tropius, an oversized Durant and at best a Galvantula count as a fair trade @Iron, meaning we give these two for the other captured Pokemon in return? I'm feeling it might, as a huge Durant would make a good soldier/leader of the other Durant and Tropius can provide fresh fruit everyday for the queen, while a Galvantula can provide something I can't think of at the moment (light, electricity? But why could Seika need electricity...?). I mean this in the way of leaving these with Seika. Of course Shiva would mourn endlessly for her rare grassy sauropode, cry bitterly for it, outta-chara it'd take a useful Pokemon from my hands and kill off any Natural Gift shenanigans.... I don't know how Ven would be fine to part with Turiel and Nathan parting with Grid, Windos, Dragon? If this would save us a fight full of lethal attacks however, I'd be totally for this action.

One way or the other, I'm scared of any aggressive actions as a fight will cost us everything we have on hand, and Seika has the capabilities to deal Super-Effective-STAB damage on EACH of my Pokemon currently on hand. ._.

*ahem*  Zippy's here too.  That's most of the reason I suggested we bring him.

O_O No, Nathan would not go along with that.  No way.  Grid is one of his favorite pokemon, one of the ones he's sunk a ton of care and training into.  And I'm not sure Seika would really value 'just a few more bugs' anyways.

I think the only ones who don't get nailed for SE damage by at least one move are Ralts, Aspis, Raticate, Patrat, Malphena, and Haunter.  Maybe Koa and Lucifer if Seika lacks any Ice moves for some reason.  I don't think it's the SE damage we need to be mainly worrying about, tbh...

Here's another idea: Ralts could try to hypnotize Seika, and then we have a few minutes to free everyone and book it instead of seconds if it works.
