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

What you people think of that ideas/suggestions?

If I am allowed to give you a small advice, don't spam the @everyone like that, sooner or later we, the players, end up reading this thread anyway. I see the importance of tagging everyone in this case through, I'm just biased by semi-pointless taggs. Don't hold it against me please!

Now, concerning your idea about wielding that Swordmon of yours, I actually like what your thinking there: Yes, sounds pretty costy as well as dangerous, but if you're really willing to go that route, do it. It sounds very special, unique and useful, and it's something that fits Heart (as a character) pretty nicely. Just takes time to gather these 100XP, I assume.

Sorry, I will avoid spam @everyone in the future to avoid such thing don't worry.

Thanks. I have no great problems with that. After so many battles, Doublade already gather 90 XP. With more 10 I could unlock that surprise and after I can focus in gather the rest of the XP to level up the other stats. I was thinking in keep Doublade XP to unlock Iron Head, but then the wield idea struck me.

Of course like Dragon mentioned, it is needed Iron input in this.

You could theoretically hold Doublade already, no surprise needed, as long as he's obedient. But it wouldn't have many benefits.

A 100XP Surprise should come with some kind of awesome benefit, like maybe adding extra damage dice at the cost of Heart being targetable by foe Pokemon, and the aforementioned risk of life drain!

I'm on a borrowed laptop so some things might be weird for the next week. My real laptop is in the shop on a warranty claim to fix those pesky s, x, w, 2, and caps locks keys.

Yay! But what kind of benefits I would have along with extra dice damage?

Is there a way to avoid energy life energy drain? Like those berries who has a 50/50 chance of restore Will?

[Iron]

Here's a second benefit! You could have three Pokemon on the field: Doublade in hand with two extra dice of damage on all his attacks, plus any two other Pokemon to command as normal.
Thirdly, Heart himself can have +1 Defense while wielding Doublade. Not the Pokemon, you understand, but Heart himself, since he will be subject to Pokemon attacks.

The more obedient Doublade/Aegislash is, the less often it will drain life energy. You could also let it drink the life force of defeated foes (which deals Lethal damage, so use it wisely). Finally, as an Aegislash it will be much less likely to drink from its wielder.

[Spiritmon]

Extra damage with the plus of control two other Pokemon or have extra defense...that's kinda a difficult choice. Is there other surprises I could choose over the ones you mentioned?

Also another question: If I wield Doublade, will my char have access to his moves such as Shadow Sneak or Sword of Justice?

[Iron]

You won't, but Doublade still will, and you can kind of go along for the ride.

You can think of just about anything for a Surprise. You want a talking Pokemon? Spend the XP. A third type? Costs XP. An invisible Pokemon? We'll think of a price.

The 100XP gets you all those benefits, you don't have to choose among them.

Hmm, I very much willing to the thing with bonus damage and command two more Pokemon. But I was wondering about other perk. Some sort of mix of Heart Earthpower and Doublade ghost skills to form some sort of armor to give extra protection. 

Or maybe, if this be too much OP for 100 XP we could make Heart wielding Doublade give a bonus of +1 Defense and +1 Damage instead of +2 Damage, and still command two more Pokemon.

People. Any other suggestions of ideas, I open to hear them. Dragonstrike? Windos? Phantom? Mikaruge?

Another question I have @Iron is about the moves and Held Items. Let's say Doublade is in Heart hand, and I ordered him to use Rock Smash. Within Heart hand, Doublade would summon Rock Smash?

And about held items. If Doublade would held Leftover's, Heart would benefit in the restoration or only Doublade?

[Lord Windos]

Wow. You just got access to DIVE, Dragonstrike. That's.....well, that'll certainly make searching for the big Genesect Fossil easier, now won't it? Only bad thing about that is that nobody else can follow along with you, unless we get DIVE capable Pokemon in the future. Drat....
