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

[Lord Windos]

It's undeniably my favorite Stat, even if mostly because what is possible with it outside of battling. And I'm finding it interesting that apart from Ventus I'm the only who's been serious about+working on it from an early point on maxing it out. ^^

Fielding three Pokemon at once is kind of a legendary move. Something a Marco Warren or Dagny might do.

:O Now I want Shiva to carefully try that at some point too, but preferably in a safe scenario where experiementing won't fire back at you at twice the force.

I wanted Ven to be an INS focused chara. at the start, but then I figured out I liked battling/him being a morally dubious individual, so him being especially Insightful became less of a priority beyond VIT (Still focused on using INS as much as possible, though!). Had I realized the hidden power of INS, though, I probably had him exploit it more often in the wild or non-League Battles , but hey, hindsight is 20/20. 

Problem with fielding +3 Pokemon is that unless you have a Plot Device on your chara or you exclusively train with three specific Pokemon enough that they can battle together seamlessly, you'll never be able to entirely eliminate the inherent risk/cost of fielding 3 or more Pokemon at once. Moreover, the times you would want to utilize that strategy is when up against a especially Dangerous foe, so using/experimenting in other situations is sort of superfluous. Still, if you shan't field three Pokemon in the upcoming battle, I'm not going to judge you harshly, so you do you dear!

On the note of my chara, I don't think I'll go beyond 3 INS until I max out Nature and/or Channel, as I want to get those Specialties finished beyond I move on to other things. Terra was never meant to be super smart/Insightful, so don't worry about him suddenly becoming a brainiac/super wise guy and fielding three Pokemon to CRUSH everything in his path. Speaking of specialties, has his Nature sense found anything useful beyond/besides the KCs, Iron?
