[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Trying to get a Safari Zone Pokemon used to one via occassional feeding sounds like an attenuated form of or preparation to acquirering, sweet - I like that a lot.


Shiva doesn't have her anti-ghost wolf with her at the moment neither are the Skull Ruins close enough for Nightshade to call this place's spectral power for help, but given how eager and unafraid the waterly Eeveelution looks she should do just as well 'gainst pesky Haunter! This encourages Shiva a lot, her desire to get that curious purple herb is definitely stronger than her fear of that poisonous ghost.

She's almost shouting at it now, and that's also the moment where her 'Don't mess with me'-traits shine through a little stronger than they've done before: +1 Intimidation for Shiva, now being at 3 points (-12 xp). "I'll tell you ONCE and I won't tell you again, this is MY plant. Go and poison somethingelse, go and haunt the sleeping campers, go and do WHATEVER, but LEAVE.US.ALONE. Vaporeon, up with your defensive please before drenching that ghost in pulsating water. YOU ASKED FOR IT, now TAKE THAT." Haunter must have hit a nerve of her if she acts so merciless.


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

Accuracy Roll Vapo's Acid Armor 1: 4 Dext + 3 Survival + 5 Nature - 3 Actions = 9d6
Effect: +2 Defense for her, bringing Vaporeon to *6 Vitality.
Secondary Effect: Loosely dissolves her skin into water molecules.

Accuracy Roll Water Pulse 2: 4 Dext + 2 Fight + 5 Channel - 4 Actions = 7d6
Accuracy Roll Water Pulse 3: 4 Dext + 2 Fight + 5 Channel - 5 Actions = 6d6
Damage Roll: 3 Strength + 2 power of the move + STAB + held Electruxo's Umbrella = 7d6, neutral damage
Additional notes: This move has 3 CD to confuse Haunter.


That Umbrella is illegal to use in official battles, but this isn't an official battle and I'd be suprised if Haunter goes to rat on us or even cares. If there's a risk that nearby campers could do so, she'll have to ask Vaporeon to hand her the umbrella. Not interested in catching Haunter, Shiva's main goal is it to chase Haunter off and gather the Aromatic Herb (She'll collect just enough that'd be needed to evolve a Spritzee).
