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

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Windos, don't you at least want to recall Oinari and Arete into their Pokeballs?

[Spiritmon]

Sounds like a plan to me. Quetzal can at least reduce Deoxys move with Wrap. It will not cause any damage, but at least will reduce his movement towards Nathan. I will also try to use Viktor to control some of the trees to at least wrap Deoxys too.

If you didn't need any healing after the first fight, you wouldn't have gotten a Max Potion.

 Okay, Terra would have done that the instant both Fainted (they did so before he kicked it, I think), but if not he'll spend his Trainer Action recalling them before just sitting tight as he can, too out of it and crippled to do much else. Don't think I need to make a post specifying this in the Game Thread, so I'll just leave it here for the record.

Oh yeah, I usually assume a fainted Pokemon is withdrawn unless something prevents it.

That's generally my assumption as well since that's been the case the entire campaign.  And there was definitely plenty of time for Grid to be withdrawn before the landslide.

...so, does that mean Grid could have been withdrawn instead of buried? I didn't get the impression that anything would have prevented that. And the Clones were all KOed by that point as well, which was the main reason I had Grid out in the first place.

Also, @Spiritmon, I'm not sure if you missed it (and I'd honestly be surprised if you did), but Heart's bag is currently glowing.  I would highly recommend pulling the egg out and checking on it immediately. Someone's bag glowing sounds like a pretty dang big deal to me, particularly since there was emphasis placed on the egg itself.

[Dragonstrike]

Additional note to your edited orders, @Mikaruge108: if you want to test how effective Sheer Cold is, I'd highly recommend using it first instead of second.  And then if it turns out that it can indeed harm Deoxys to some degree without the Sword, then put in some conditional orders to keep using Sheer Cold.

Otherwise, using moves that can Flinch, Freeze, and Burn Deoxys (particularly Burn 2 and 3) are going to be the most helpful ones if they aren't being powered up by the Sword (assuming the Helm's effects haven't been shifted).

Well, because Marco Revived him, he wasn't withdrawn. I suppose he could have been if you'd tell Marco not to bother.

Unless Nathan had been able to use that Max Potion on Grid, he wouldn't have bothered to Revive Grid, no.  Not at that immediate moment, anyways. PDD sticking unless it's healed by the most powerful medicines makes simply Reviving someone a fool's gamble if they don't have any orders to try Evading.
