I shall give y'all a hi from Mika, he's doing fine! ^o^

Aww. Please tell him I also sending a hi to him
Hmm....I wondering what kind of Hidden Power move it could be from Rose and Gustav? Those was the two Pokemon who I used most of time in the campaign. Gustav Hidden Power perhaps could be related to his Mega Launcher ability?

[Iron]

I am too. This is wonderful rewards after the long adventure we get.

I have a idea of TM to me. Previously I was thinking in grab a fire move, but I think in take Hidden Power. We all begin as normal trainers, and then we make this long journey, and unlock our true potential. Including Heart himself who discover his potential in Earthpower. I would ask the effects of Hidden Power first @Iron and his effects.

I think we should keep the Ashes for ourselves for now. There still a few things to do and adventures to go in the rest of the campaign. So we might bring someone back to life is a good thing.

This is awesome. Imagine a famous person who travels the land and if you meet them, they unlock a completely mysterious unexpected ability that fits your Pokemon.
Same goes for Secret Power. I'll add the effect that Secret Power creates a Secret Base appropriate to the Pokemon who uses it. 
We nerfed Nature Power earlier in the campaign, giving it CD to cause sleep effects etc instead of automatically causing those effects. During Diceless this probably doesn't matter anymore.

TM availability lists are still determined by the corebook, with the exception of universal TMs. 


There are actually four Unown for EACH of you. No need to split them up.

?

So...what's that statement mean in context to what else was said, exactly?  I'm afraid I'm a little lost on that front.  Are you saying it'll act more like Hidden Power instead of how it works in the games/book rules or something?

Ah, thanks for clarifying that. In this case, Shiva's personal and infinite TM will be

Spoiler

Natural Gift. It's TM83 solely in Gen4, an underrated move and quite nicely fits Shiva's nature-loving attitude as well as her 'I have an ace up my sleeve'-style of battling. Whenever she's unsure what Item to give a Pokemon, she can just give them a Berry and catch the opponent off-guard!~

Any Pokemon that can learn a TM can learn this move.

The belt is worth a lot because, like the Medals, people will recognize the wearer as a person of great honor. Call it $25,000. Can certainly be crafted.

I see. Since there's so much honor attached to it, Shiva can and likely will wear it just for decoration, like in this sketch I made.

The Unown have 4 Loyalty and 5 Disobedience, making them generally safe but not great in battle. As if you'd use a single Unown in battle anyway.
The four of them together are enough to use Hidden Power with a small amount of effectiveness, creating small illusions or conjuring tricks of similar strength to Azu. They are especially good at summoning ORE.

That's also good to know, I was worried about those Unown being unhappy or not safe to be around, just waiting for an opportunity to escape from us.

What's ORE though?

Secret Power and Hidden Power are both good RP choices, because they will be different depending on the user. That's all.

[Iron]

I love the Primal Espeon : ) Take 4 XP.

Ore is stone that contains metal.

Hmmmm...I'm still not quite sure I get what the exact differences will be since Secret Power isn't normally dependent on the user at all (it's typically more affected by location than anything else, similar to Nature Power), but okay I guess.  Guess I'll go with a Secret Power TM in that case.

And now with that out of the way...I think it's about time I worked on some long overdue replies.

Oh I see. I'm saying the Secret Base it creates will be dependent on the Pokemon using it. Like every time Gallade uses it, it might create a crude model of Nathan's room. But if Grid uses it, it will create a spiderweb themed base.

Gotcha.  Well, that's kinda cool I guess...not exactly what I was hoping for, but I'll make do with what I've got.  At least the effect procs have a chance to be good in the right situations...beyond that, though, it's gonna be a niche pick in battles due to not being as powerful as some other moves...though that's not necessarily a deal breaker since Spirit's willing to share the HP TM.

By the way, I think you missed responding to this question, Iron.  It kinda got lost in all the other conversation.
