Sure, do as you please, dear! I don't have time to post now anyway, and me/Kee kinda want to move onwards (as otherwise he MIGHT snap at Chimi). Just make sure that we won't run into their 'ally', alright?

Up to Kogeki/Spirit as to which direction the group will head further in the M.D. , but I'll try to have Pyra steer the group away from further trouble with Team Art. !

Now I need No One's opinion before I can post, since I can't really make one if it could potentially step on their chara's toes if they want to have them give one last biting remark or something.

Oh? What's up windos?

.....I was going to ask you to not comment as Dax in retaliation against Team Art's blatent taunting/baiting so that Pyra and Kogeki could handle it diplomatically and with good (enough) grace, but I apparently overestimated the ninja's capacity not to rise to them and escalate the situation into a high risk scenario or degrees of humiliation for our Team. *Sighs* Why does the best laid intentions always go awry......?

Given what has happened, I don't really have any desire to participate in the Team OS vs Team Artifcer's Swagger games, so I'll just say that Pyra is on high alert and defensive because of said games and is disappointed in her own way in the group for being so touchy about their words. She'll say why she's disappointed later when the group is alone once more and in non-danger, bluntly tellimg everyone that causing trouble with other non-Feral/'civil' Pokemon isn't a thing that should be done unless given great reason or an outstanding and/or long standing grievance (and self defense, but that goes unsaid). Doubly so if it's against other Teams, which Delphox explicitly told her/everyone else not to start shit with. It was a lesson she had to learn uncomfortably first hand, but she learnt it well and she expects her friends to internalize it too for the wellbeing of all going forward. That, and if you're going to attack somone, the best way to do it is suddenly and unannounced, not trading barbs and subsequently raising their guard (She'd say that in a more chastising manner, as if that should've been obvious). Feel free to sockpuppet my chara. to do all 'on screen' if you wish, Dragonstrike, or just post the bolded and underline parts as Pyra's 'response' to the Event in your subsequent post to it.


Also, sorta called their ally would be a Golett. Felt like the only thing that could 'recharge' in a Magical/Spiritual place , other than perhaps Claydol lines and other 'artificial' Pokemon.

I didn't expect things would scalate that much. In this case Kogeki it's not exactly the guy leave to go unnoticed with that Chimical.

And Kogeki by now had enough of that Guild members bad behavior too. He already didn't had a good image of the Guild members behavior.

Situation averted.

Ohhh, looks and sounds like another horde fight after these Litwick not too long ago, yay!


I'm saving up XP to enable Ziggy Kee using multiple actions, and will now target Spoink and Driftloon for the STAB-SE-damage. If being lucky, that combined with Dax's Bubbles will KO these two already.

Uh, if taking a look at the opponents, Magnemite likely has Sturdy Ability, Driftloon may have Aftermath and Spoink Thick Fat, which efficiently makes them more dangerous/tough respectively:



So, at best use ranged moves for Driftloon once it's pained enough to likely faint from a next attack, and avoid Fire Type'd attacks on Spoink, okay?

[no one]

Yep. Multi-Actions should be neat. Idk if the Scratch will hit, but I'm hopeful. And uh, I think the only Fire or Ice move we have is Ember on Pyra, which I think she should use on Drifloon while Kogeki can maybe go for Magnemite or Spoink with Bite. And then maybe Karen can use Disarming Voice for the group damage too. I don't think this will be too bad, especially considering Dax can hit all three of them.

@Spiritmon and @Lord Windos, waiting on your orders for the current encounter before we can continue.

@Spiritmon and @Lord Windos, waiting on your orders for the current encounter before we can continue.

Well, at the moment I don't exactly know who I should focus. I was expecting Dax and Kee could use Bubbles and Snarl to quick dispatch Dlifflon and Magnemite and if necessary to Kogeki finish either of them with Bite. Since we need to save items and because I want to avoid what happened with Litwick battle.

Strategy plans Windos?

 @Lord Windos, waiting on your orders for the current encounter before we can continue.

Sorry about that, mate, but life has been keeping me away from the forums beyond the occasional peek. 

@Spiritmon : Kee's going after Drifloon and Spoink, while Dax is waiting to use his Bubble until Magnemite and co acts malicously ( a decision I find mute, if Kee just goes ahead and attacks without waiting and provokes them into violence) . Magnemite and Drifloon are above Pyra and Karen in INI, while Spoink is only above Karen. Taking all that together, the most optimal strat. to clean them up is as follows, imo ...

1. Kee and Dax do as they planned already, except for the later maybe just attacking straight up like Kee if the former doesn't wait to see his enemy's reactions
2. Kogeki uses his Bite on Drifloon to try and KO or Flinch it to prevent it from Targeting either Karen or him when it turn comes up. If Drifloon ends up KOed by Dax and Kee (Presuming Dax doesn't Hold his Action after Kee attacks, because why would he at that point), switch Bite to Magnemite in order to try and Flinch/KO them instead.
3. Pyra uses Bite on Spoink or Drifloon to KO them, or Ember on Magnemite if Kee/Dax/Kogeki manage to KO the oiker and spirit before she can sink her teeth into them. She'd then try to use an Ember/Bite as a 2nd Action to finish off the remaining stragglers if they don't use a 2nd Action.
4. Karen....well, can't plan anything for her, since she's firmly in Dragonstrike's control, so....hope she uses an appropriete Move to clean up after everyone else?

That should do it! I'll get to my post when I can, so I'm sorry to keep you waiting a bit longer!

[Lord Windos]

And yes, I'm accounting for Aftermath in my strat. , mates. If Drifloon can be taken down ASAP, then the 2 Damage from it shouldn't be a concern after cleaning up the rest of the Pokemon and then exploring two tiles. That, and leaving it conscious instead of finishing it off could lead it to using Astonish, Payback, or Ominous Wind to thoroughly screw over anyone in the party more than one chara taking 2 Damage from Aftermath.

[no one]

I changed my action once I saw that Kee was going straight for the offensive. No holding action, just attacking.
