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

[Dragonstrike]

My turn to ask a question for clarity: do we or do we not have the Hauberk with us right now?  Because last I checked, Heart has the Helm, and Terra hadn't retrieved the Hauberk from the League yet.

[Spiritmon]

Water Pledge isn't on your Pokemon's lists, but they can still take the Pledge without obtaining the move. And Kingdra can be a tutor for any levelup moves they still need.

A shame though that Clawitzer line cant learn Hydro Canon...He have a freaking canon in the place of the claw Nintendo!

Welp, gonna make my next post.

[Iron]

Oh, I thought he got it all that time ago.

anyway, he can go get it and come back anytime in the next ten years, so it's a moot point really. We should decide for the future, though, whether he has it or not.

Terra's not going to get it by himself until he has a chance to talk to Cosh about it (IE: Ask if its okay with them, since it is 'theirs' ) , which I plan to do after the Garliburg Quests are all wrapped up. Been putting that on the backburner for too long, so might as well get it done before the next big quests start!

Remember, @Spiritmon, Skull Ruins refers to the corebook for movepools, not Bulbapedia/Serebii.  If the move isn't listed for the pokemon in the book, Primal Kingdra can't teach it to Netune.

iirc, all Water moves listed for Swampert and its prevos in the book are eligible so long as you're able to pay an equivalent monetary cost (ask Iron for the cost if you're trying to learn a ? move).  Scald, Water Pulse, Water Pledge, and Hydro Cannon are free. (Water Pledge and Hydro Cannon require a Pledge to stop the Scims or similar)

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Yeah the Bulbapedia lists are irrelevant beside the corebook, but I have been lenient with Rain Dance in the past. If you really want that move on any water Pokemon where it makes sense, you can get it.

*puts fingertips together and turns rather meek* I would actually really really like to have Water Pledge on Azu... This move involves chanting and has a magical touch to awake the power of water, and Azu is with Shiva for soooo long that she could almost be counted to her few starting Pokemon.... Furthermore, this move would so wonderfully synergize with Raphael's Serene Grace Ability. Oh, and then Shiva would have all three Pledge Moves on Pokemon of hers, that too. Can I have it then? Please??

[Dragonstrike]

Whimsi got Grass Pledge because she was Shiva's actual starter, though.  Very special exception.

Outside of Starters and Sketch mons, no pokemon should be compatible with the Pledges, imo. Ya make one exception, and then it sets a precedent for more in the future. If Azu gets to learn it, then why couldn't Nathan's Starmie as well? Or Swiftfire pearning Fire Pledge (which she did not and cannot)?

[Spiritmon]

I must say, I surprise for this turn of events. Never think the assassin of Heart Clan would be in Cheshire.

But if she was strong enough to kill a whole Clan with skilled trainers inside, we might need to be extra careful. She problably have their ways to cause PD damage for sure.

[Iron]

I'm definitely thinking of her as an interregional villain, if that's alright with you!

[Iron]

Yeah, Pledges are reserved for starters. Perhaps it's time to pay the Adoption Agency a visit?
