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

[Dragonstrike]

And my expectations of you shutting down my compromise have been precisely meet. Whether that is a good thing or not is up to debate, but it can't be argued that you're very keen on balancing any ideas that could grant us advantages back into neutrality at best, and made completely unfeasible/bad at worst.

In any case, if the book says that having the Higher Special is necessary to win the weather wars, then having Vulpix out (by whatever defination we subscribe to here) would be pointless, as the Abomasnow/Snover likely have higher Special than it or Dragonstrike could increase their Special to ensure that their Snow Warning is the dominate Ability active. At the very least we still have access to Nagi's Hidden Power Fire (Which has Priority from Prankster, to boot), which would at least manually override the Weather for a bit before the mean greens reset it at the first opportunity (Via Ability or using Hail), so the plan to dispel their Weather ain't a total bust.

Mainly just reading the book rules, to be honest.  I am going to have my own spin on things in certain scenarios, though.

Another thing I will note concerning weather abilities that the book does not address: if there is a tie between two pokemon's Special stats, then either user may change the weather to theirs by spending an Action (no accuracy roll required), thus creating a weather war situation.

Manual weather temporarily overrides Ability created weather in most scenarios.
