Heracross Round 1

Heracross just flits up and down, slurping honey from his fists, watching Neptune get closer and closer and run around and around him. He nonchalantly finishes all the honey from one claw, then at the last moment reaches out and slams Neptune with devastating force.

Close Combat 1
5 Dex + 5 Fight + 5 Brawl -3 actions = 12d6
(2)(4)(5)(3)(4)(5) (4)(2)(4)(4)(4) Critical hit
5 Str + 5 power + 1 stab -5 vit +2 crit = 8d6
(5)(2)(3)(5)(6)(2) (6)(3) Neptune takes 4 dmg 4/8hp -2 pain
-1 Defense for Heracross

Neptune finishes the whirlpool, but he's in a bit of a daze himself. I guess we're using anime whirlpool, of sorts.


Whirlpool 1
(5)(4)(5)
(5)(3)(4) Heracross takes 2 dmg 7/9hp -1 pain.
Heracross was trapped for as long as Mudkip is on the field!

When you wound him, Heracross doubles! Both copies in the small swarm fire poison needles at Mudkip and Heart respectively.

Pin Missile 2 & 3
13 ranged dice, -1 pain, -3/4 actions -1 acc = 8/7d6
(1)(1)(4)(4)(6)(6) (3)(2)
(1)(3)(6)(4)(1)(4) (4)
5 Str +1 power +1 stab + 1 Swarm = 3d6 each
(2)(3)(5) Mudkip takes 1 dmg 3/8hp. A potion brings him to 7/8.
(1)(3)(4) Heart takes 1 dmg 9/10hp

Heracross is firing pretty indiscriminately through the whirlpool. He doesn't seem angry at Heart, though he isn't excluding him from attacks.

Water Gun 2
(5)(1)(1)(3)(4)
(6)(3)(4) Heracross takes 2 dmg 5/9hp

Water Gun 3
(5)(1)(2)(4)
(3)(6)(1) Heracross takes 1 dmg 4/9hp -2 pain. Another clone joins the swarm!

Water Gun 4
(4)(6)(5)
(6)(5)(6) Heracross takes 3 dmg 1/9hp -3 pain. Heracross raises his hands in surrender - if you don't accept his surrender, he'll be KO'd for sure by the remaining Water Gun + Whirlpool's 2 dmg dice.

Either way, Neptune gains 10XP and Heart gains 5XP.

AND, Neptune begins glowing with brilliant blue light! It shines off the dew, the pooled rain, the rising steam closer to the volcano!

The light straightens up and fades, and Neptune has become a bipedal 'kip with a somewhat derpy expression!

Congratulations! Your Mudkip has evolved into Marshtomp!
