[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Dragonstrike]

Did you have Juliet in your party when you first encountered the fishies?

If so, Heart can expend a colossal effort via the Helm to rewind to the point where the Lumineon are about to rewind time themselves. And all his Pokemon will be exhausted from lending their energy to him.
You'll still have to find some way to stop the Lumineon from rewinding time again.

If you had to go back to the PC to grab Juliet, then it's all too far in the past.


Has this given you a headache yet? I know my brain hurts from trying to get all the tenses right.

Juliet's been in Nathan's party the entire time.  He's not changed it since he got to Garlicburg.

Yes, but not from the tenses.  From trying to solve this dang puzzle using only what Nathan had on hand when we got stuck in it.

I did have another idea, though. Instead of trying to catch just one, catch ALL of them. If catching them after they were KOed doesn't work though, since you stated the Ability works like Aftermath, catching them without KOing them might also do the trick. It should only take 1 hit from the Sword to bring them down to 1 HP, and one of Nathan's Dratini can use Twister to hit half of them in a single move (and possibly Flinch them to lessen the number of attacks we have to worry about).

And if someone has to take a sting (or two), then I've got an idea for that as well that I'll state if/when that's confirmed.
