[Meta Thread] Dragonstrike's Pokerole Test Game: Mount Coronet Mystery

[Dragonstrike]

I'll save you guys a little time.  

Don't plan to far ahead, as you don't know what I'm planning for the second Round yet!  Decide on your pokemon first, then plan around anything I might bring up once I've rolled any initiatives that need to be rolled.

Though in this case, I guess that means we're probably just waiting on Phantom to decide who she's sending in before I roll Round 2's initiatives since Nami is probably staying out for Bad Dreams abuse and Windos is already committed to keeping Paula in.

You right Dragonstrike. Bad Dreams has been prove super duper powerful against the Legendary of Time, so she gonna stick out in the battlefield. And as for Moves, like Dragon said, I want to hear out Phantom opnion about it.

[Lord Windos]

From what I can tell at a glance, Bad Dreams Damage alone was responsible for roughly 1/2 - 1/3 of the Total Damage its taken so far, so yeah it IS super duper useful! Keep that literally nightmarish feathered fiend out for as long as possible!

To be exact, the Sleep did 9/39 damage, which is around 23% of the damage that was dealt in Round 1.

To compare, Giratina did 13/39 damage, which is exactly 1/3 of the damage that has been dealt so far.  And that's while they've been on the 'defensive'.

The remaining ~45% of the damage was dealt by everyone else.

Kee's choice of Pokemon for Round 2 is his closest companion and signaturemon:
☆*:.｡..｡.:*☆
Since Giratina can't gran cover anymore due to switching into Origin Form, is it possible to seek cover behind one of the pillars of Spear Pillar instead, how much cover will it grant from Dialga's attacks?

Half cover from ranged moves.

And what about non-ranged moves? Or to phrase it differently, how high is the risk of Dialga accidently or on purpose trying to knock down a pillar and bury Octavia beneath it? (That's not an idea for you) On the other hand, she's so small compared to the other battlers on our side, Dialga might not directly go for the faeeveelution...?

Cover can't usually protect you from non-ranged attacks since the attacker is typically right next to you when executing those.

As long as Dialga's pseudo asleep, its targets and move choices are random (mostly).  Octavia has the same odds of being targeted as everyone else.  When Dialga's awake, who can say what it will do?  You didn't leave it awake long enough to figure out how it might act 'normally'.

As stated previously, the pillars look fairly sturdy for the most part, but there's a chance they could be destroyed if they're hit hard enough or hit too many times.

Hmm, true words you're saying... Okay, that's all the questions I wished to have clarified beforehand, thanks for answering!~
