[Meta thread] Lord Windos' PokeRole Adventure : Celadon City Vandels

[Dragonstrike]

Tsk tsk tsk, temper temper, puppetor! We wouldn't want you to end up embodying your tile, and have the odious burden of living with the consequences of such OUTRAGING reactions, yes? Or are the sort that likes to live dangerously, hm? I would hope not, if only for the sake of the drake dangling from your strings. Windos would do an adequate enough job bandying them about, if necessary, but nobody could make them put on a performance quite like you, hehehe....

Oh no, I'm aware you're a rather astute and clever headed person, and the news you bring is old hat to me indeed. It's why I only called you and my horrible sister only hilariously naive, instead of simply the most adorable and inept of fools. Hehehe......then again, arguing and taking such a deplorable attitude with me could be considered the very epitome of foolishness for a whole suite of reasons and by many definitions. Either that, or courageous beyond belief, but from personal experience I've seen that excessive levels of courage and foolishness are so similar as to make no odds, so I guess we come to the same conclusion regardless of the route taken, eh?

Fortunately for you, I've always found your insolence and defiance charming and highly amusing entertainment - or perhaps entertainingly amusing? Or, dare we say, both? HeheheheHA! Oh......anyway, I have no desire to inconvenience you, so continue on being so plucky Dragonstrike! It never ceases to amuse, hehehe.....

I could go on, but I won't. All good and fun in moderation, especially when it comes at the expense of others so less fortunate than yourself. I do hope you enjoy the rest of the story poor Windos crafts - they've taken a great many liberties with it to give you a ending you'd be happy and satisfied with, after all.

Hmm......yeap, that whole list looks right and sound to me!

 You can replace Roar with Whirlwind on Hope's Level Up list, and if she learns the Move I'll create new mechanics for it under T.S.

Sandstorm will become more relevant to Hope as she Evolves, as will Rain, but that is all I will say about that matter for now.

Clear Smog won't count, since I consider it being more a Poison/Cleaning Move than a true 'Wind' Move.

Hope can learn all Wind based Moves at some point along the line, even Shadow and Nuclear Wind Moves if you don't mind temporarily find a way to close her heart or let her hold the Uranium Slug long enough. Right now, though, she's restricted to the Wind Moves she can learn now, and via TM/Tutor.

Razor Winds would skip the Charge Time and become Lethal + Hi Crit, Bounce would still have charge but would deal 2X its normal Damage Dice Roll (Its not a true Wind Move, but all the momentum generated by the favorable Extreme Weather would be quite effective in smashing into things from on high), Sky Drop would work the same (It takes time/care to bring up the target up high + Auto Flinch them), and Sky Attack doesn't need Charge, but can Charge it anyway for Always Accurate and Auto Extra Lethal Sniper Critical Hit against a Target that has a 7D6 to Flinch - Otherwise, the Move loses its effects in T.S. in exchange for spammable raw power. Hope/Any Pokemon with Charging Sky Attack would get auto Crited in turn, but its a worthy trade off imo for such an overkilling effect.

I'd say that you could replace Thunderstorm with Typhoon , but I say its redundant to go after it, since a Damp Rock and/or partnering her up with a Damp Pokemon would extend her weather for enough time to destroy anything short of the Ultra Strong or Legends. If you want to grab it, though, okay with me!

If you're trying to emphasize some of the main reasons why I dislike you (to put it mildly), you're doing a spectacular job of doing so.

*exhales again*

...I've said what I needed to for now.  No response to this is necessary.

------------------------------

Alright, I'll replace Roar and Thunderstorm with Whirlwind and Typhoon respectively in Hope's level up moves, then!  Still not quite sure if anything needs to be done with the second instance of learning Spark, though...

Alright, so Sandstorm and Rain Dance will be relevant later...good to know...I'm guessing Hail and Fallout aren't since you didn't mention them, though?

Fair enough on Clear Smog. I assume Vacuum Wave and Vacuum-cut don't count either?

Oh?  Oh right, Shadow Storm and Shadow Blast are technically wind based, too...of course, Shadow Blast is a variation of Aeroblast, so...hang on, if Hope can learn ALL Wind based moves eventually, does that mean she'd be able to get Sparkly Swirl/Storm (some of the Japanese names for the Let's Go signature moves sound a lot cooler), Aeroblast, and Glaciate naturally?!  Oh my...well, and I guess that also means Hope can learn Gust (wind based Flying move, obviously) through some means evenually as well...and she already has potential access to Air Slash as a ? move, and Air Cutter through leveling...I guess just for the record, I'll also add Shadow Storm, Shadow Blast, Gust, Air Cutter, Air Slash, and Aeroblast to the list of wind based moves in my notes as well.

*also takes notes on the Flying type Charge moves and Razor Wind* Hmmmm...Razor Wind is already a high crit move, actually. Is that particular effect from Typhoon weather redundant or double up as a result?

EDIT: Oh, and I also found another 'wind' based move that I missed somehow: Leaf Tornado! Adding that to my notes too! And I think Leaf Storm and Petal Dance might also count as well based on their descriptions in the book...thoughts?
