[Game thread] Skull Ruins Pokerole

[Spiritmon]

Having fire in your hands will allow you to use Intimidate, though there's a chance Venomoth will just be drawn to that light.

Intimidate: (2)(2)(6)(6)(6)(5) (3)(3)
(2)(2)(2)(3)(2)(1) (3)(2)(1)(6) Wow. Ok, Venomoth flaps off after the first Ember from Rose. Take 1XP for Rose and Heracross and Heart.

What Area are you heading to? You're already in 6.

Well, still gonna stay in area 6 but I will do a search. Gonna find any Pokemon who might have support moves who might help in the competition and might be more easy to bond. Gonna search in area 6 who is the most difficult area. Something similar to Mareep.

Nathan - Safari 4

Aggro: (2)


Rarity: (1)(2)(1)(3)(5)(4) (4)(5)(1)(4)(3)(5) (6) We have a new record.

As you're struggling with Seaking, a PINK and GLOWING little head rises from the water and watches you carefully. It decides to join in the fight!!

*gasps*

Spoiler

Now I want to know what color Shiny Dragonite is in Creshire Because let's face it, standard Shiny Dragonite, while kinda cool, is also kinda dull compared to its prevos.

And the little guy/gal wants to help out with Seaking?  If that's the case, awesome!

Nathan's choice of pokemon in this fight: Juliet (as per usual) and Solomon!  Time to status this Seaking and catch it so we can properly say hi to the adorable little Dragon.



First question, obviously: what gender is Seaking?  Typically, you can tell by the size of its horn!

Second Question: what are the initiatives?

Once those are answered, I'll have an idea of what I want to do with the orders!

Safari Zone 4 - Shiva

Aggro: (5) Just a little problem/encounter, then. We'll get to that in a minute.

Rarity: (1)(1)(4)(4)(3)(2) (5)(2)(3)(5)

You find a perfectly intact pair of late-spring Sawsbuck antlers! The horns are a mix of keratin and cellulose. In other words, they are not truly made of wood, but the twigs and branches and even the flowers will stay hard even after they are shed. They never rot.

A beautiful woman tromps up to you, and stops by your side to shake a pebble out of her boot. She's blonde, and seems not to care about the mud on her fine clothes.

"Oh, lovely Sawsbuck antlers you've found there! Do you craft? I might be willing to buy any spring-themed jewelry you form out of those. Say, you're a volunteer Ranger, right? So you've been on patrol? I'm looking for a Gloom around here, seen one?"

Safari Zone - Heart 5

Aggro: (5)

Rarity: (4)(1)(3)(3)(1)(1) (1)(2)(2)(6)

You see a cute little Pikachu, being mobbed by three Gligar. Naturally, this Pikachu's attacks do very little on Gligar. One of the Gligar immediately turns to fight Heart when he joins the battlefield.

With your alertness, you notice a few tiny details are different about Pikachu. It has tiny little fangs, and the tips of its ears are dark purple, and its eyes are cruel and fierce. There's definitely something unusual here...

Yeah I hate shiny Dragonite. In Creshire, some stay pink, and some become a pure metallic silver color.

(2) Seaking is female.

Solomon: (6)
Juliet: (5)
Seaking: (4) + 4 + 4 = 12
Dratini: (6) + 3 + 3 = 12

Alright, so it's a female Seaking.  Got it.  Or is it Seaqueen in this case?  Hmmm...well, let's get to the orders...

First off, if Seaking uses Horn Drill or Megahorn, Solomon and Juliet are 100% going to want to try and Evade that if it's coming their way, and Solomon will Disable the offending move the first chance he gets (which should be easy since he's the fastest thing on the battlefield, ironically). I've worked in some damaging attacks as filler to allow for a move for the evade to replace, as the status moves are the one's I'd like to prioritize using.  In short, if an Evade occurs, continue with the listed move order, but don't use Confusion/Psywave, and modify the status moves' accuracy as appropriate!  Make sense?

Evasion: 6* + 4 + 3 = 13 base  (oh my, it appears I've been doing my previous calcs wrong...whoops.  Maybe I shouldn't try to do things from memory for the time being...)



Solomon's orders:

Hidden Power 1
Acc: 3 Insight + 5 Knowledge + 3 Lore - 3 Actions = 7 D6
Dmg: 2 + 4 + Hard Stone = 7 Base
Effect: Old Unown symbols reveal info!  Maybe they'll say for sure if Seaking knows either of those ultra dangerous moves!  Knowledge is power, after all!

Disable 2
Acc: 13 - 4 = 9 D6
Eff: Disables whatever Seaking's last move was for 4 Rounds!

Confusion 3
Acc: 13 - 5 = 8 D6
Dmg: 2 + STAB + 4 = 7 D6
Eff: Confusion (1)




Juliet's orders: (and she's still holding an Eviolite, too!)

Telekinesis 1
Acc: 13 - 4 Actions = 9 D6
Eff: Levitates Seaking and makes sure all following moves will hit!

Hypnosis 2
Acc: 13 - 4 Acc - 5 Actions = 4 D6
Eff: Sleepy time! Except Seaking isn't going to be sleeping with the fishies since it'll be midair.

Confuse Ray 3
Acc: 13 - 6 = 7 D6
Eff: Confused fish that also happens to be levitating midair! A rather comical thought.

Psywave 4
Acc: 13 - 7 = 6 D6
Dmg: 4 D6

Once Juliet's fired off her Confuse Ray, Nathan's gonna toss some Safari Balls at Seaking!  Hopefully we can end this fight sooner rather than later!  An experienced Seaking is a dangerous fish!

If the wild Dratini happens to know Thunder Wave, it'd be amazing if (s)he Paralyzed Seaking with it. Nathan's got his hands full with his own pokemon, though, so he can't exactly give the Shiny Dratini any suggestions!

Hmm...tiny pokemon, fangs, ears with dark purple... I have a suspect what this Pokemon might is but let's help beat a few of those Gligar. Heart summon D-ONIX and Gustav. "Oi! Don't you guys never learn to not attack tiny Pokemon? I don't want to fight any of you so let's calm down!" Say Heart trying to stop the fight from continue. If not, roll the initials @Iron
