[Game Thread] Pokerole: Mount Coronet Mystery

[Lord Windos]

Spoiler

"If you're accompanied by someone who's proven to me that they're able to handle themselves already, I can maybe let you into the temple even if you don't defeat me, so long as I feel you can also handle yourself.  I'll go and check it out myself later when I have the time as well.  I don't want to see something causing Sinnoh trouble any more than you do.  If something might be affecting the Temple, it's definitely my problem, given the Snowpoint Gym Leader traditionally watches over it."

Pretty reasonable, right?

Candice makes her way back over to her side of the arena and gets ready for battle!

Given that you specifically approached her to try and get access to the Snowpoint Temple, Candice is gonna be starting off with a slightly more difficult pokemon than usual.

Gym Leader Candice would like to battle! (Fun Fact: her sprite from Diamond and Pearl is different from her Platinum one)

Candice's first pokemon is a Glalie!  "Show 'em how we run things around her, Glalie!"

Round 1 Initiatives
Glalie: (2) + 10 = 12
Puck the Mawile: (3) + 6 = 9

Puck's Intimidate activates, decreasing Glalie's Strength by 1!

Indeed it does!

"Heh, your bargain is sounding downright generous right now, but I ain't complaining! Everything's settled, then! Mögen die Besten von uns siegen, Candice - May the best of us prevail."


Fast-forward a scene, and out comes Puck the Mawile, striking a coy but menacing pose as he smiles deviously at the Glalie before him with both mouths. Oh, he's fighting an Ice type, is he now? Well, isn't that a cool deal - for him.

Soon after his Intimidating pose takes effect, Ran wastes no time issuing orders!

"Puck, mess with that Glalie a bit, before hitting them hard and then hunkering down! Don't underestimate your opponent here, or it will bite'cha harder than YOU can yourself!"

Orders: Knock Off, Power Up Punch, and Iron Defense for the spritely fae, in that Order please! If Glalie uses Protect at any point before Puck's Third Action, though, he'll just use Iron Defense then to set up in there face, and move the Move that would be perform then to the next possible Action. If it would be impossible to perform said Move, a Will Point will be conditionally spent to give it + 1 Success. If its possible to use Items in a Gym Battle (Specifically Potions), Puck will get one (A Potion) if his HP fall at or bellow 1/2 its Max Value right before he preforms his next Action.

That the starter plans for this Round! Will magical Steel yet again withstand the supernatural Ice? Let's find out!!!
