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

Might want to take another look at Glare's accuracy.  It uses Intimidate for its specialty, not Canalize.  And it has an innate -1 Accuracy Penalty, too.  Gonna be a hard move to pull off.

Told you the battle Terra vs Shiva will look vastly different than the one vs. Nathan as I'm approaching things from a different angle. C: Or, I'm trying to use any resources I can get to break through your 5 Vitality!

Hey, in my defense, I didn't know what I was up against when we did Nathan v Terra :/  I figured a more straightforward approach would be a good way to start things off.  Can't really go wrong with that in most situations (the key word being most).

I didn't say anything bad or mean it ill, I'm sorry if it came off like that! D: By 'vastly different' I'm more meaning that our approaches towards battles + Stats are rather different anyway, so naturally the Introductory Battle will take a different direction as well.

Terra has contingencies against those that try to be tricky against him, though, so watch out! That, and once A-V is Fainted and Recalled, the Hail goes away automatically, as that is what it says happens in the Core Book (Weather Change Pokémon generate it when out, and it goes away when they are returned/Fainted), so no more unavoidable chip Damage....well, for Terra at least!

So...? Well, curious then to see those contingencies, my dear!~ I know that the hail will go away once the snowy fox is out of of battle, but I'm having more ways to deal chip damage. *mischievous chuckles*

Took more time to come because of error 502 in the forums. What the hell?

Happens sometimes, I saw it as well. As long as it's only temporarly there's no need to raise alarm though, maybe Cody was moving some files again.

Ah, I only now remembered: You told your new laptop would arrive today (Thursday), didn't you, Iron? So, ehm, did it and does everything work as expected?

Got delayed until Monday.

@Iron, Steel resists Ice, so those Ice Fangs wouldn't do any damage at all to Percival.

Oh yeah. Thunder Fangs then.

Also, Sandstorm will need some kind of setup in Tanuki's gym, which isn't currently dusty or sandy.

….Well, Foreright is not going to have a good time with that fact brought up. Not to sound like I am complaining, but if Weather utilization is entirely based on environment conditions (Something I find not fun/convenient for gameplay, but its your game and mechanics, Iron), then clear indications of whether or not its possible to set it up from the get go would be helpful. That way we players don't end up bringing a Weather using Pokémon to battle and/or sending them out with a plan in mind, only for it to get derailed and left in a bad spot.

I've let GM know which Pokemon gets send out to replace Vulpix, @Lord Windos, I just wanted to let you know. Will get to further things after dinner, roughly 30 minutes!

It's naturally that you can't just change the weather indoors, scenically that'd be just weird - and it's known, or so I thought? I had to take some Actions to set up sunshine in Zamboni's Gym as well.

Hmmm...
