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

[Iron]

That's correct!

[Lord Windos]

Huh.....looks like Nathan ended up catching a real wooper of a Pokemon! And a variant of one I allude to in A Whale of a Story to boot! Perhaps the story was a good/bad blessing of sorts...?

[Dragonstrike]

Oh geez, the wiki says that Tubareel are 25' long...

...but then again, considering Nathan's stats, the situation, and some of the stuff I've been throwing at you guys in those PMs, I think it'll probably be fine.

Huh, now that you mention it, now that hint of yours makes sense, Windos.  Neat.  Don't know why I didn't think of that, tbh.

Poorly kept secret: I hate the Tubareel redesign. I even watched Twitch sprite it. : /

Spoiler

Gym terrain is pretty much always considered destructible. I'm not sure how an Explosion could be rendered nonlethal - maybe while the opponent happens to have cover?

Gym Leader Tanuki vs Terra Round 2

The little old ladies get a knowing grin, and mouth the word together with Tanuki -

"Spinda, ENCORE!"

Encore 1
15 allure dice
(3)(1)(3)(5)(5)(3) (4)(1)(2)(4)
Basteele's actions are locked!

Stealth Rock 1
No effect!

Feint Attack 2
(3)(1)(1)(3)(3)(1) (4) It hits anyway.
(3) But deals no damage.

Spikes 2
The battlefield is COMPLETELY littered with Spikes now, but you can only enter at one point so it doesn't really matter.

Feint Attack 3-5
(6)(2)(3)(4)(5)(3)
(3)(1)(1)(1)(5)
(4)(5)(4)(6)
(3)
(3)
(4) Basteele takes just 1 dmg after all that. 7/10hp -1 pain.

For my own record keeping, Spinda has used 3 out of 4 moves.

(I thought you could make ANY Move Non-Lethal, if you order your Pokemon to make it so? Heck, their's president for such with Explosion, given that Weezing unleashed a decidedly not so deadily one all the way back in the beginning of the game, so I don't see why a much more well trained Pokemon can't pull off the same trick)

Weezing actully used Self Destruct from what I remember and did overkill Lethal damage with it.

I actually didn't know that, so it was a nicely kept one for me! Truthfully, I like the new design over the older one, but I find both to be nice and have their own appeal. OG Tuba looks like a lurking catfish monster that's a force of nature, while Neo Tuba appears like a wicked cool dark eel, ready to devour its enemies and enact its vengeance against mankind!

Weezing actully used Self Destrect from what I remember and did overkill Lethal damage with it.

If that's the case, then so be it! Still, if Self Destruct can be naturally Non-Lethal, then I don't see why an Explosion can't be made that way, since its only slightly more powerful (+10 to SD's + 8). But that has already been sorted out, so no need to argue about that!

[Iron]

The new shiny is pretty good.

[Dragonstrike]

Yes!  Finally!  Had a feeling Princess was going to evolve after that battle!  She still has a lot of growing to do exp wise, but I can't help but be proud of her even now!

I'm pretty excited about that too! Now we have what amount to small army on your beck and call, provided you have the Will for it! All hail the queen!

If she tries to boss around Terra, though, he'll just ignore her until she asks nicely for help, or tries to force him to (In which case, she'll have to prepare for trouble then!). He's no pushover, even if he acts like it at times!
