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

[Dragonstrike]

Spoiler

Electric, Ground, and Grass types take no damage/minimal from that Terrain Combo if I recall correctly, and Flying/Levitating types are entirely immune since they don't make contact with the ground, so it isn't TOTALLY unusable. Just takes the right setup and careful management, really!

*stares at Reiner's list available pokemon*

Ah yes, a whole four of Reiner's pokemon work spectacularly with that combination.  

- Raijin, who has to seriously worry about Rads
- Adam, who will be extra Pained in the Rain despite losing her weakness to Fire
- Rhyxemplar, who doesn't really benefit at all from either field condition
- Mew, who has to use Reflect Type or Transform to even work with this combo at all

No Flying types (unless Yang evolves) or Levitate users in his ranks.

Yang as is still at least resists the Electric damage and benefits from both field effects though, I guess?  Ridia resists it too, but no real benefit for her other than that atm.

Yup, great combo.

...and we'd have to worry about tazing the human characters, too.  Extra fun.

- Baltazar would have difficult against the Terrain and Nuc attacks... unless he could use Magnetic Rise. Since it's a move who make a Pokemon have abilities to become imune to Ground attacks like Flying/Levitate users, in theory this would make him Levitate from the Ground to not be affected by the Eletric Trap. At least this is what I think.

The Eletric Terrain would be a Trigger for Arial ability masoquist...but considerably last battle of nucmons I prefer to refrain myself from suicidal tactics.

Yes, Magnet Rise would get Baltazar off the ground and away from ET (Telekinesis does too).  The catch is that airborne stuff can't benefit from any of a Terrain's effects.  Baltazar doesn't really benefit from either of the field effects, though.  He is also at least resistant to rads though, unlike Raijin.

Personally, I'd prefer exploring other potential combos first.
