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

That's a difference indeed, but I still can't see why one shouldn't be able to dig up stuff or mine valuable ore with pitons if the Pokemon can't help or fail on the task. It may take a bit longer with these tools, but if comparing these and a pickaxe, it should definitely work I'd say!

But please let us not be nitpicking or start arguing about this, that's no use nor necessary. Okay? Just, eh, let think a little outside the lame box and put things into a different usage than they're intended for.

Mining with pitons is not something I think anyone would normally recommend.  Pitons aren't exactly great tools for that job, and using them instead of a pick would probably be much, much lengthier and more difficult...

Nothing says you can't try, but I doubt it will be easy...

Oh... Keeping our homemade rules for Psywave/Nightshade etc. in mind -

Psywave/Counter rules: Psywave and similar moves now deal 1 dice of direct damage for every gym badge you have. Ignores defense, STAB, and type effectiveness (EXCEPT immunity). These moves can crit and miss as normal.

- I just realized that I'm not such a lost cause with Litwick's Nightshade Attack as I originally thought. (Means, I already got more Gym Badges that I believed I would with Shiva). That's a nice realization! ^^

Yeah, it racks up quickly.
