Well, there is a way I been thinking to make Arial get buff of strengh. TPK have the power of three types of shoot, been the body shoot to cause pain in the target. Remember, any kind of damage TPK causes, its reflect on the user. Its just like what happened in the battle against Gyarados.

Pain Split is fairly counterproductive to optimizing that Strength buff, however.  What makes Pain Split valuable is taking away Pain Penalties from Geigeroach and giving it to something else so she doesn't have to deal with them as much.  If Arial stacks huuuge Pain Penalites on himself, they'd start getting shared with Geigeroach and start crippling her rolls quite heavily, even if she still has a lot of HP remaining.

So basically, there's no real way to take advantage of Pain Split to give Arial even more Pain unless Geigerach is the one accruing 'bonus' Pain.  And she probably wouldn't appreciate becoming a pin cushion on purpose at all, no matter how 'helpful' it might be.

But didnt Masoquist ignore pain penalizations? For Arial and all his pokemons? Sure its have the dowside about -1 Defense but still very powerfull

Key words: Only his Pain, and only for him and his Pokémon. Giegeroach isn't his Pokémon, so any Pain he gains and shares it to her....well, that will suck for the big Bug.

Oh. I understand. Any pokemon who dont have a bond or its not in Arial team if get the effects of masoquist...will accumulate pain and eventually this will might affect the dice of rolls...yikes! Its a smart weakness to be honest...

Yeap! Only Arial and his team benefits from Masochist, and anything else just suffers tremendously. Yikes indeed!

Keep in mind that if Pain Penalizations = the total number of Accuracy Dice you have for any one move WITHOUT Bonuses, then Arial or anyone else passes out for awhile. Since Arial has I believe 8-9 Dice for basic Attack Rolls, he can only get 8-9 STR Point before he passes out. That still can give a monsterous 11-12 STR to pass onto his Pokémon, but building up to that level is literally arduiously long, and exceeding the regular - 3 Pain has its own consequences...
