Pokemon Umbral Discussion 26

[Astral Harmony]

Yes, we know it's actually a Swampert.

Anyways, is that your final answer? I'm still not entirely sure what your strategy is, which is why I wished for it to be in orange. The color of Impact and Major Grant. The color of sunshine...on occasion.

[Geminex]

I'm still discussing with Menarker.
Give us a few more minutes? I think we're coming to a close, here.

And you're right, I did use to make Impact orange, didn't I? Awesome. His Word is Law.

Edit:

and for Menarker's convenience, I'm reposting my last post from the other thread here:

AB said that you can't use your Co-Op technique if they are knocked out. They can still use it if they not the active battlers or so, and status affliction like Flinch shouldn't be a problem. But knocked out stops it.

Riiight... then how about this:

Moon: Lanturn's Signal Beam at Gardenoir, Fathom to use Helping Hand on Impact.

Rachel: Leave combat to use two rage rockets on Impact. Leaves combat, so hopefully immune to damage.

Impact: Dark ambition, leaving him with 0 Rage. Use second adrenaline boost. Attack Frossqueen with Flamethrower. STAB super-effective. Request Swarm Bow in exchange for Flamethrower. Request bug-immune armor.

Charlotte: Spitz' Super Fang on Pegidash, Hammond to use Stone Edge on Pegidash.

Renny: Use Serene blessing (Charlotte's enforcer, Shannon, and Milsha to spend 35 rage to extend protection to Matt and Impact) Mollesk to use Rock Slide on Frossqueen and Altarisect, Swampert to Mimic Stone Edge on Frossqueen. We can test flinching another time.

Pierce: Blaziken with Overheat on Frosqueen, Tyranitar divide Stone edge on Pegidash and Altarisect (for 25 RPs)

Harliette: Mineral shot on Pegidash, instead of deploying second pokemon, use SigTech, "Desparado". Blissey's sing, also on Regina,

Matt: Venomoth form, use sleep powder on Regina

Wilhelmina: Nether Shot on Frossqueen.

Trainer attacks: Hit Pegidash, or, if that's dead, hit Frosqueen.

If it turns out that we need Pierce's technique next turn, Rachel can just revive his two pokemon (if they even die!), to give him the necessary rage. She can spend 25 rage to use extra items, so even is she does use her 2-item limit this way, she could still keep spreading the love, 25 rage to revive Harliette, another 25 to buff Renny.
It we don't need the technique, then we didn't waste rage protecting the 2 mons.

And besides, if we do it this way, then Harliette can use her technique this turn, and, if it turns out to have been effective, next turn as well.
Not to mention that we're weakening Altarisect already.

*Chuckles at the pic as Renny's Swampert smirks too.*

Anyhow, Gem, in regards to your last post, don't forget that each time we're losing pokemons, we're also dipping our morale gauge lower. I don't want it to go down too low since there doesn't seem to be a way to bring it back up easily. (We can bring them down too, but bringing it up is not as easy.) There are penalties for being too far down the morale gauge after all. I'd still think that Protecting would allow us to balance that, since we don't know their overall offensive power.

Otherwise, I would be fine with the plan.

[Astral Harmony]

Then I'll post with that plan set.

This is gonna be fun.

[Geminex]

In regards to morale: Even if we dipped below 50, it wouldn't be too bad. We'd get extra rage generation, for one. That'd be useful.

And besides, you fought a battle against cultists, didn't you? How many pokemon of theirs did you have to knock out before their rage dropped below 50?

[Menarker]

Well, that worked out less than expected, since the ones who fled were mainly the ones who had almost lost all their pokemons in the first place.

Still, Fear would suck on the Morale Scale.

But yeah, looking forward to AB's post.

And I wonder how AB will describe Renny and Togekiss's combination move, Serene Blessing. Hugs and billowing light that look like feathers all around and such? ^,^

[Astral Harmony]

I'll uhhh...do what I can.

[Geminex]

AB, make it tortured screaming.

And could Impact request Lexhur's support?

Hell no. What sort of relationship you think they got going? Heck, you could imagine the fact that it drains Rage points from certain allies as a sort of calming influence that somehow doubles as divine protection like the semi-angelic pokemon it is.

Although Charlotte/Impact/Pierce's reaction to it might very well be screams...

[Astral Harmony]

It'll probably end up with there being nekkid females in all the feathery fluff bullshit. After all, it is an Armored Bishoujo RP.
