[Meta thread] Iron's PokeRole Adventure: The Skull Ruins

[Lord Windos]

Lol
Ven, we should sleep over there once as soon as he recovered from Chandelure-Encounter. Shiva will pay.

Oh, and lucky you for having hatched the base form of Ghetsis' Signaturemon!~

Hehehehehe, I didn't notice that until you pointed it out, but I and Ventus would be more than willing to spend some quality time after such deadily business!

Yeap, and that is partially the reason why he was so stunned to see it, as he never expected to run into the line again in Cheshire of all places and remembering his old boss' fiercesome hydra. That memory won't diminish his love for the black 'n blueberry that is his child now, though, so happy times are soon to come!

Yeah, Nathan's had a rough day, and he's...incredibly frustrated right now.

And he's got pressing concerns for both Ralts and Furret (plus her egg), so that's another factor. Among...other concerns as well.

Looking forward to seeing just how much havoc the almost-was-a-tank dragon is going to dish out on the battlefield since it can properly utilize Hustle (unlike poor Ariel)

Though on that note...this is another weird case in our campaign style of a pokemon having a noticeable advantage over its evo that it otherwise wouldn't have...first case is Dragonair and its MASSIVE HP stat (Dragonite's only advantage without changes/surprises is a slightly larger movepool). And now we have Zweilous arguably having higher offensive potential for physical sets (though Hydreigon has a much better potential movepool to try and make up for that, particularly on the special side)

Which was a damn shame, since it started so well for him..... Darn it, why can't Nathan be happy for a long period of time for once? It would make it sooooo much easier to like and bond/re-bond with him if he was like that, and actually become more understanding and sympathetic to his plights/views.....

Me too, especially when Azrael acquires Crunch and Fire Fang later on to rip and tear her enemies into nice blood chunks, and Dragon Breath to take advantage of her draconic nature! Having Dragon Rage from the get go is also nice too, since it can be used to quickly burn down anything but Fairy types in short order if their HP is below 6-8 due to spam. Which is most Pokémon even with max Vitality, now that I think of it! Fire in the hole, *Fwoosh!*

Eyup, that is a bit of the proverbial pain in the kiester when it comes to those two, but like you said Dragonite gains several moves that Dragonair doesn't get and can take advantage of being part Flying type to avoid ground moves (Though being Flying has its own disadvantages too), and much the same can be said for Hydreigon, particularly since it gets Hyper Voice, Tri Attack, and Outrage right off the bat to do some truly atrocious things to whatever crosses them. Levitate is nice too, since it means it has one more immunity and can be flown around on!

[Dragonstrike]

Well, the circumstances weren't exactly entirely under my control since Ralts is...well, a Ralts. Though even if he was a Kirlia, the Chandelure thing might have still had some kind of effect...and before you ask, yes, this whole emotional bond thing is something I'd planned to do from the very start of the campaign.

Plus, Ventus went and partially pushed two of Nathan's most sensitive buttons as well...that definitely didn't help matters any at all...

Random post for today: a size comparison of (almost) all existing Pokemon and UBS! (and the Tapus' guardian of alola form as well)

Here's the original post.

Yay! I'll have Shiva investigate them a litte and eventually bring them to Ven's attention somehow. Quality time is alwasys good, especially if he'll be in a content and relieved mood after having gotten his revenge!~ It'll need a bit of ccordination from both our sides though, as Ven's secret trip back to the Candelabra will certainly take at least one Encounter Slot and there's no cell reception within Mount Sentry.
Feels like a good opportunity to also hand him that Reshiram-Plush?~ Whether all that will be the trigger that'll make these two boyfriend and girlfriend depends on reactions + mood and how we outplay it... But I'd be happy if it'd be, and that much won't change in their interactions either (or so I feel)

Hydreigon is a cool Pokemon that I outta-chara kinda like, and Head Smash is a great eggmove, I intented to breed it in Gen.5 before I got lazy. Will smol Deino become a firm team member then to eventually evolve her? So many dragons that need and deserve his attention.

[Dragonstrike]

Huh...Carvanha...not exactly a common pokemon in caves...at all.  Makes me wonder where Furret found that egg...

...but then again, I suppose Basculin can be found in caves, so Carvanha (and maybe also Tubjaw) could theoretically be found in a cave as well...

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Sharpedo are named and handled as the bully of the sea and have max. Disobediance, that scares me a bit and makes me dislike it somewhat although they're actually decent Pokemon. :C

Carvanha are fine though as long as they're alone. Would you keep it?

[Dragonstrike]

Oh wow, BILL is in the region?!

Nathan's going to DEFINITELY want to meet him in person!

Side note: @Iron, I, uh...kinda already used the Route 10 label for Botanville -> Arrowroot earlier.  We seem to have a route numbering discrepancy this time...whoops.

[Iron]

No problem, I'll just swap it with Route 12. Then I'll post the list in the first comment.
