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

[Lord Windos]

Those giant, ultra bulky pokemon are certainly a lot less scary when you're able to constantly exploit those 4x weaknesses And when you're allowed to use multiple pokemon against them.  And when they don't have increased stats.  And when they have no way to heal themselves.

If you could Curse it, that'd be great.  Flinch probably won't be effective since it's KOed, unfortunately (and Fake Out might also do Lethal damage to Onix).  Burn and Poison might be unnecessary.  With the combination of being KOed while Asleep and Curse, that's a -7 Penalty to Onix's Pokeball resistance.  -8 if Force Palm Paralyzes it.  Enough for a Great Ball to have decent odds of catching that Onix.  Dunny being out might make Nathan a little nervous still, but he'll be able to stay calm(er) once it's clear that the Duskull is not Disobedient (for now).  Gallade will still be sticking close to Nathan, ready to use Night Slash if necessary, though.  Ya know, just in case.  Can never be too careful where Skull Ruins Ghosts are concerned.

So Lapis is still a big enough threat for Nathan, since he has pretty much none of the issues that Onix had? Hurray! Similar things could be said for Angie too, except she has no Recover Move (Yet) and that pesky 4X Weakness to Ice (Which your chara. may or may not be able to exploit).

If possible, that is what will be done, with the Burn not being applied unless Nathan specifically asks for it! Not going to post right this second, though, since I need to get Iron's input on whether or not its possible to Evolve Anubi + Learn Final Gambit simultaneously. Regardless of that, Terra would have Dunny inflict Curse if possible, just to save time for everyone involved if I'm not around to post when Iron is.

Terra would be understanding of Nathan's reservations about Dunny (Since they're all too justified, and would keep them (Dunny) at a respectful distance/by his side to prevent shenanigans on anyone's part. He'd take notice of Gallade's readiness, though, and kindly/politely request they leave any disciplinary action to him alone, as he doesn't want his Ghost to have any reasons to loathe them/their trainer and rather have their (Dunny's) ire directed soly towards himself in the event of shenanigans. That, and because its his obligation to look after his trusted partners, so letting Gallade's attitude slide by would run counter to that and wouldn't comfort Dunny in the slightest. 

As for Dunny's own reaction to Nathan/Gallade, that I'll have to leave to Iron. The only people they've really interacted with outside of Terra is Heart, and that was for only one brief conversation, so I don't really have a metric establish to how he would treat other non-special humans/Pokemon.
