[Meta Thread] Dragonstrike's Pokerole Test Game: Mount Coronet Mystery

[Lord Windos]

@Dragonstrike, I have a question: Would Sparkling Aria Clash with BOOMBURST only dampen the Damage against Primarina , or would it dampen the Damage for everyone? If it the later, I'm not okay with the Clash, since if it blunts BB's Damage too much, then what was the bloody point of using it in the first place?

It's going to dampen the damage against everyone.  Sparkling Aria would also hit everyone at the same time, though (also with dampened force, but Mat Block should lessen the damage most of the trainers will take)

This is part of the reason why I didn't need to roll Boomburst out in advance.  The mere act of saying your going to use it in this scenario means everyone has to account for it, or you're going to end up wrecking yourselves as well as the enemy.  Sure, you're not okay with the Clash, but not everyone in the group is okay with using Boomburst since it hits them as well.

I can roll out the orders now since I have everyone's for the current course of action (Boomburst with a Clash and Mat Block to prevent it from wrecking the trainers' HP).  OR you can discuss a change in plans with everybody before I do so.

The ball's in your court, Windos.

.....I will commit to my current course of Action with Beethoven, even though it'll like go to pot completely if Sparkling Aria does too good of a job soaking the Damage. As I said earlier, I am adamant in my decision to using BOOMBURST, as I want to resolve this Encounter ASAP and prevent the A-Sands from causing more problems altogether than a single BB could cause. He's hoping that BB Crits and Rolls high enough to mostly bypass SA.

If I knew of a way to bypass the Clash altogether, I would try to do that instead, but I don't, so I won't.
