Alright, since we're pretty much on the cusp of the climatic battle against DEOXYS, I say it's high time for another round of strategy discussion and rampant brainstorm as to how we're going: A) Decide which Pokemon we're going to bring in the final battle against it, B) to best approach it for said final battle, and C) actually fight the interstellar menace.
To start things off, Iron, would that Arceas Mural happen to have legend(s)/Lore associated with DEOXYS, and can Nathan possibly do a Lore Roll with Solomon and/or Sari to translate and get all the useful Knowledge we can about it?
Secondly, Teams. Who are we going to bring in the final battle against Deoxys? And not just Pokemon wise, but actual allies too beyond the Scimitars? I certainly wouldn't be opposed to making a detour to try and convince either Howl or Chuckle to lend a hand, as their stronk and sly Dark/Ghost Types would really be a nice thing to leverage against the super space virus. Dagney could also be of help, especially if she has a couple of tame Steelixes that can act as meat shields to soak up a three Plot Device attacks (Or one big one each). Then there's the matter of Terra, and the unfortunate possibility of him being a liability in the fight.....we have to decide on whether he stays with the group or stays well out of reach of Deoxys, just in case.
Thirdly, when exactly are we going to engage Deoxys? Going to do so ASAP means we mitigate anymore havoc it can wreak, but everyone is bone tired from their day's trek through the last layers of the Ruins, and Will Power alone can't deny that unless Iron says so, so we'll be at a disadvantage (Well, more of one, anyway). If we delay and gather our resources/allies/power and let the League try their best to contain it, then we'll have a much better shot of beating it.....but then we're letting it fuck things up for who knows how long that takes for us to get fully into gear. Pick our poison, I suppose.
Fourth, Items. What should we bring to use against it or for ourselves (Beyond the Artifacts, obviously)? I'm particularly curious as to what those Plates could do for the group as a whole, but what other goodies do we have up our sleves? Oh, and keep in mind that Max Potions/Full Restores are the only things that can treat Plot Device Damage (Though how much of it?), so everyone should at least by 6 of them with the Loot Money we'll be getting once we sell all of Sarimanok's old odds and ends. Shiva's Shield can only do so much to prevent Deoxys from wrecking us, you know.
