[Game Thread] Pokerole: Mount Coronet Mystery

[Lord Windos]

Spoiler

Randolph vs Candice Round 7

Puck's Initiative doesn't matter in this case.  Intimidate does, though!

Weavile keeps on attackin'!  Even the threat of a Power Up Punch isn't deterring her!

Brick Break 1
(3)(1)(1)(1)(2)(4)(3)(4)
3* + 3 - 4 = 2
(1)(1) Candice is having a REALLY hard time against these Steel types today, isn't she?

Iron Defense 1
9 - 2 - 1 = 6
(2)(3)(6)(1)(6)(3)
+2 Defense for Puck! (For anyone wondering, BP will work more like it does in the games, rather than the Pokerole interpretation, which is why this worked at all)

Ice Punch 2
(2)(2)(2)(4)(2)(4)
3* + 3 + STAB - 6* - NVE = 1 D6 - 1
(-)
(4) Still no luck for Candice

Baton Pass 2
7 - 4 - 1
(1)(2) +1 from Conditional Will.
Spend that Will Point!
Puck passes the baton to Diam!

Candice nods approvingly at Randolph's choice of actions.  "Exactly the kind of strategies I want to see.  If you find a weakness in your opponent's tactics, exploit it!  That's how the Ice type rolls.  Ice has a lot of weaknesses in exchange for how easily it can exploit others', though, so I try to mitigate them as much as possible."

Round 8 Initiatives
Weavile: Still 13
Diam: (4) + 6 = 10

Randolph nods back in appreciation to the gelid gal, though his expression remained unchanged.

"Wasn't my intent for my strategy to catch ya eye Candice, but I got no complaints if it did. Anybody worth their weight in salt knows how to properly read a situation,and come up with at least an idea of what to do, and I'm worth a premium. *Shakes head* So many of the young hooligans I've fought don't know Scheisse how to cobble together a half decent plan o' assault, or don't have a lick of appreciation for what good planning can do and end up doing arsebackwards things in a fight. Can't tell ya how glad I am that you're nothing like them brats, even if you're giving me a good rubbing 'cause of that! If nothing else, the battle of ours is giving my old grey matter a work out, so I'm going to get something out of this, no matter what!"

The very next thing he says are his orders for Diam, whose's just plain eager to keep annoying the hecky out of that Weavile! Their reactions were so cute, so let her continue to be so rude, we he he!

"Diam, get yourself patched up, then bedazzle them with that light of yours, but be ready to block any Ice Punch from them!"

Orders: The gemlin will use Conditional Will Point Recover, followed by Metal Burst and then Flash Cannon. If Weavile attempts Ice Punch at any time during that que, however, replace the appropriate action with Detect to blank it (If it does no Damage Dice, no Chance Effect!), then attempt to continue the que using the Move it replaced as the next possible Action. If Weavile's last Action is Avalanche (It always goes last) and Diam's last Action is Metal Burst (And it hadn't taken any damage prior to using it), replace it with Flash Cannon. Let's continue with forcing the black cat out of its comfort zone, shall we?
