[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Dragonstrike]

Insight/Survival/Alert checks for Terra and Nathan:
(3)(4)(5)(2)(4)(6)(4)(2) = 5 success. Terra spots the Bulbasaur right away, digging with good speed at some earth on the flank of the mountain. Wherever it digs turns into fine sand instantly.

The saurian part of the Bulbasaur looks just like a normal one, albeit with little curling ferns like tiny versions of Ivysaur's. As it digs, the little ferns twitch to reveal a spherical, lumpy stone where the bulb ought to be. It also has little bulbous stone warts all over, especially at the joints of its limbs and even over one eye, making it unable to see from that eye. The effect is grotesque, like a gargoyle or Quasimodo.

It hasn't spotted y'all yet.

When Terra inevitably points out the weird Bulbasaur to Nathan, the curious young man motions to Terra to stay back for now.  "I have an idea.  Looks like it's probably still a Grass type, so Sleep moves aren't likely to work on it...not out of tricks yet, though..."

Gonna try and ambush this Bulba with statuses!  Out comes Grid and...another Grid?  I imagine Terra is very confused for obvious reasons.

"Grid, Juliet, see if you can catch that weird Bulbasaur by surprise and make it easier to catch."

Ambush!
Stealth: 6* Dex + 3 Survival + 2 Stealth = 11 D6
Alert: Bulba's Insight + Survival + Alert

If their ambushes succeed...

Juliet will attempt to use Attract (6 + 3 + 4 = 13 D6 accuracy.  Infatuates the target if they're the opposite gender.  Given that this is a member of the Bulbasaur family, it's probably reasonable to assume it's Male) and Grid will use Thunder Wave (12 D6 Accuracy.  Paralyzes the target)  

Gonna be real hard for that Bulba to move if it has -2 Dex and is reluctant to fight Juliet and her allies due to Infatuation's 2 success Insight check.

And if both status moves land, Nathan will immediately follow up with an Ultra Ball.
