[Meta thread] Lord Windos' PokeRole Adventure : Celadon City Vandels

[Spiritmon]

Good morning guys (depending your region). How are you people?

[Lord Windos]

Doing rather well myself, if I do say so myself Spirit! Hopefully you are having a good morning as well, my friend!

@Spiritmon: Since Gasper is going to Transform into Metagross mid-battle, I'm going to tell you which 4 moves its going to have, and let you decide which move to use. Otherwise Gasper goes on autopilot for whatever move I CHOOSE, and I don't think that is too far....

Moves: Meteor Mash, Explosion, Zen Headbutt, Hammer Arm

Lets see...Gardevoir have HUGE Sp. Attack and she have the lower weakness for now. I choose Meteor Mash. Since its a strong steel type attack perhaps can cause great damage. Also it will raise the attack of Gasper. 4 Times Meteor Mash. If she die my that attack I will attack Gallade with that attack.

@Dragonstrike: Alright, I forgot to factor in the - 1 DEX in your Pokémon's Initiative from the twisted ankle, and since I don't feel like re-rolling them all for your Pokémon, how about I change the battle Debuff - 1 Pain instead? Functionally, this change has the same impact it has on your moves as - 1 DEX,  but its easier for both of us to keep track of and doesn't cause unneeded weirdness in the INI. How about it, mate?

Sounds fair.

[Spiritmon]

After all we make we could only do 3 damage in Gardevoir? Damn. I must think about a good strategy.

The only thing you can do right now is switch out Gasper with someone else, and just hope that they don't get Disabled/Encored into submission. Full Heals do jack against those special statuses, so...

I cant afford use to much items. We dont know what others Pokemons they have. I think its time to bring my our Colossus. @Dragonstrike can I trust you to take care that damn Metagross?

That's not how Encore works in Pokerole, Windos.  Book says it locks the user into the same action sequence for 4 rounds, not a single action, so Arbok would still get off those other actions.  And the move has priority, so it'd have to be used as the second action for it to work in round 1.

You do realize that I have to redo rolling for the whole round because of this, mate? And I mean ALL of it, since this revelation gives me an unfair disadvantage as DM, and you guys more advantages that you otherwise would not had have? And that I THOUGHT that it worked the same as it did in the game, judging by how I read the move's description and the way it worked in the games. 

If you want me to do this, I'll do it, but I'll have to employ Plan B , which is SIGNIFICANTLY different from this course round, and spend another 2 Hours making a post for this session. My compromise is just have it work like it does in the games and have it last only 2 Rounds, after which it wears off and can't be used on the target again for the rest of the encounter UNLESS they are switched out, since I really don't want to have to redo everything over this blunder of mine.

[Spiritmon]

Lets just be in that way just this time. Its complicated to remake all the round because of that. Besides we already some advantages so lets pass just this time. Just saying what would be fair for all of us.
