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

[Lord Windos]

Ah. I have no idea how much Special Antarki has, but since Vulpix's using Kee's Stats it'll be 4, so a good chance that she's able to keep that sunny weather up. Got another question if I may, could he keep Vulpix in his arms = not 'send her out' to be among the fighters of the other charas and still have her keep that drought up and fire off one or two Heat Waves still? Because, Kee'd be a horrible father figure if he'd bring her directly into the battle, but he would be up to let her join if he can, say, keep her in his arms during the fight and protect her from any incoming attacks. On the other hand, that'd make HIM vulnerable and a target, does it? Maybe it'd be better to have Vupix out but not attack the Abomasnow as otherwise they'd figure out that this fox is responsible for the sunny weather and lash out at it.

Neither do I, but that ruling pertains to Weather Abilities, so it may or may not apply to manual Weather setting. I can easily imagine Dragonstrike stretching that ruling there, though, so that isn't a guarantee it'll work.

From the way Dragonstrike worded things, Vulpix has to be a direct combatant in order to utlizie Drought, so unless your chara is willing to act as mobile Cover for her and enter the battlefield in your arms.....

If Vulpix has lower special than ANY of the Abomasnow/Snover, Drought will fail to trigger, and while I have ways of shenaniganing Special Boosts onto Pokemon via Puck, that strat would likely not work so well in battle unless Dragonstrike allows BP to pass its affects to any Pokemon that is either in Ran's party unsummoned or any currently summoned Pokemon (Which I highly doubt they'll do). Outside of battle, the Stealth Roll would be so high it would be impossible to do, so no dice there (literally).

If Vulpix is out on the battlefield and not attacking, but is able to actively disrupt the Weather, they'd still be a Target of interest no matter what. If they don't affect the Weather and do nothing, then they're functionaly not a part of the battle to begin with unless one of the goons decides to be mean and attack it.
