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

[Spiritmon]

Spoiler

Hmm...who I should choose to learn Fire Punch? Since I certainly going to teach Golett Thunder and Ice Punch for better defense against Water and Grass types and get the benefit of Iron First, but what about Fire Punch? I very tempt to teach Rose such move, but she already have some cool Fire-moves such as Fire Blitz. Should I teach Fire Punch too to Golett or should teach another pokemon? Since Geodude learns too.

Geodude learning it would require GM approval since Fire Punch isn't listed in the book.

If you want to get the most out of Fire Punch, I'd say definitely teach it to Golett or Rose.  Iron Fist Fire Punch is just as strong as a STAB Fire Punch.  Golett would mostly get additional coverage out of it (it's pretty strong coverage, though), while Rose would get a more spammable STAB that has more than 2 Power without any major drawbacks.

Teaching it to one doesn't mean you can't teach it to the other, either.  You could always get another TM somewhere or get the move Tutored to the other as well.

Hmm but still is a difficult choice. Some of Golett main treats have some good defenses against it: Thunder Punch for coverage against Water, Ice against Grass, and Rollout against Ice. Against Dark Golett have Rock Smash, but I cant use that move in no-official battles, and against Ghost he have the ghost moves. 

Rose indeed could definitive get some boost of power with Fire Punch with a good Fire Move without drawbacks. But I may feel a little redudant because she already have her most powerfull Fire-move, the Flare Blitz even with the negative effect of Recoil. Maybe I could change her ability in the future when I get enough XP to let her use Iron First (who is her hidden ability). That way the power would be: Power(3) + STR (3) + STAB (1) + Iron First (1) = 8d6. More or less the same power as a Flare Blitz.

Dont know yet what to do...
