[Meta Thread] Lord Windos' PokeRole Adventure 2: The Wild Lands

[no one]

I'm not entirely sure I understand what Iron was discussing with Windos, can someone please explain? Do your Pokemon's stats depend on your own?

For Reguler Mons, mostly yes. You use and Level their Special Stat, their Better Defensive Stat (Cap wise - if a Pokemon had a Cap of 8 on VIT but a Cap of 4 on INS, you'd use/level their VIT for Rolls), and all their Specialties, Moves, and Surprises! . Everything else (PC's STR, DEX, Not Used Defense Stat, and their Skill Scores) is supplied by Leveling up your PC's Stats. Half and Half, basically. 

For Pseudo Tier Mon, you combine all their Scores together for that Mon's Ro11s , but you have to 1eve1 A11 that Mon's Stats , like you have to level all your PC's Stats. In other words, Pseudo act like how Dragonstrike did Pokemon Stats (They're independent of your PC's/other Mons stats and you have to 1eve1 them to increase them) whi1e benefiting off your PC's Stats (1ike how Iron treated Pokemon Stats in his Campaign - he just used the PC's Stats for all their Mons). Pseudo double up and get ALL the Stats for themselves, but you have to worc them HARD to get them to their MAX potentia1, to sum it up.

Uh... So... If you have a physical attacker, their strength is entirely dependent on your own strength? I'm genuinely confused. So if for example, you're playing a character with some kind of degenerative muscular disease, your Machamp or Conkeldurr ends up being a wet noodle? Just a hypothetical, I'm having some trouble wrapping my head around the concept.
