Pokemon Umbral Theatre 4: Dedicated to Cosplaying Pokemon Trainers Part 2

[Menarker]

... did you just propose being able to stop, at most, 9 foes from acting, 3 foes at a time for 3 turns? One of us must be drunk. Either for me seeing things or you proposing it!

[Dracorion]

Oh, right.

I forgot to say it can only be used once per RPDA use.

My bad.

[Menarker]

Ah, ok. Still powerful, but definately more manageable.


I'm having a little problem with creating an ideal for my RDPA, (especially the overdrive) because AB said that those using RDPAs would function differently in terms of being limited to only RDPA actions (pokemons aside), as opposed to being able to use their other abilities while boosted by the RDPA itself...


Originally, the overdrive I had in my head was going to be something like...


"Inspired Devotion"
Description: A certain aspect of Renny’s mind sparks inside his mind, igniting a volatile source of energy that seems to be driven by nothing but emotion devoted to the wellbeing and success of his friends and loved ones, while in reality channeling energy from the RDPA itself towards that end.
Effect: Target Renny only! His rage gauge has no maximum limit. Add 200 to his current rage gauge. All Signature Techniques and Love Techs are free actions for the turn! He is able to use any items for Prosperous Gift that can be pulled from a Medic’s stash even if he doesn’t have it on his person. His Co-op techniques are usable even if the pokemons in question would be normally unable to help despite being physically present such as being knocked out. After this turn, Renny’s rage drops to 0.


Granted, it's pretty darn powerful, so I don't know if such a thing would even be passable, although it would be the epitome of support. Basically, spend the rage on the combined uses of Serene Blessing, Prosperous Gifts, three future techs and/or Valiant Rush way later on in the RP. Serene Blessing is 70 to start off with before adding protection for others, Prosperous Gifts gets expensive if you keep adding people up without care, Valiant Rush being the same (although a worthwhile attack for an RDPA) and I'm still thinking on future Techs...

Ah well. ^^;

[Geminex]

Eh, I'm thinking about changing it to Steel. How's that sound?

Coolio.

... You really wanna split 50% by three?

Oh come on, it's 16.7% if we're rounding to three figures. Easy!

...
Touche. Gonna rethink that suggestion.

As for how I'd change it, I thought it'd add a percentage of the base percentage. Like, 20% of the base probability. If she were attacking with fire to burn her enemy, she'd have 50 base, plus 20 percent of that would give her a 60% probability. If she were using ghost attacks she'd get one fifth of the base 25 percent, boosting her to 30%. Whereas with your current method, she'd rise to 35% percent, 45 if you hadn't dropped that second +10.
Nothing major, in other words, just to stop her insta-killing too much.

Yyyeah, I think I'll drop it to 25 Rage. Though I want to go 20.

Argh. You're piling on more and more shit.
25, fine. But be very careful. I'm watching you.
And that RDPA had better make you only slightly faster than Mollesk.

A certain aspect of Renny’s mind sparks inside his mind, igniting a volatile source of energy that seems to be driven by nothing but emotion devoted to the wellbeing and success of his friends and loved ones,

Wow, I threw up in my mouth there for a second.

As for the power...
I reeeaaaally think we should see your whole RDPA before we judge. But right now? I'd say OP.

Look, I don't wanna annoy you.

Okay, well, I do. But not on balancing shit.

What do you think is a good number for it?

Guess we'll find out.

[Geminex]

What do you think is a good number for it?

I don't know, that's the problem. I have a feeling you might be too strong, but weakening you excessively is just as bad as your being overpowered. And since it appears I do have the power, I'm actually worried that I'll abuse it. I'm actually trying to err on the side of too much power here, rather than too little.

So, yeah. Keep it at 25. If you say you want it as balanced as I do, that's enough to put me at ease.

And so we shall.

Also, guys: Most awesome crossover Pokemon/Animorphs or Homestuck/IT (By Stephen King)?

[Dracorion]

Awright then, finished!

Armor: Nanosuit ~ Sophia's invention. It can resist three types at the same time, and it can change one type with some delay. Basically, a suit that accomplishes the same purpose as Daphne (and functions just like her) for Sophia. It's a Daphne Suit!

Appearance Sophie is a small purple-haired girl. She wears a cute pair of glasses over her blue eyes. She wears an unflattering combination of a yellow turtleneck that's a size too big and long brown skirt. Underneath, she hides a rockin' body complete with supple breasts. Under her clothes, she wears the Nanosuit, and a wrist interface that controls it.

Backstory: Sophia is your regular genius Pokemon Researcher. Not particularly impressive, they're a dime a dozen in the Pokemon world, right? Regardless, Sophie was good enough to land herself a job in Ricewood Masterworks, and soon enough was leading her own projects. Among which were the Nanosuit, a handy item that combines every piece of Slayer armor in one place. She also works closely with Jeanette Ricewood herself on several projects.

Her current assignment is research into the capabilities of a previously undiscovered Pokemon. As it has no mouth and has shown no other ways of communication, no one is quite sure what it's name is. In lab testing, this Pokemon proved not to be weak to any of the known elemental types, even after using Gravity to rule out a Ghost/Dark type. In fact, it doesn't seem to have any specific type. Currently, Sophie's task is to test it out in the field. To that end, Ricewood volunteered her to join PATCA, as well as to keep an eye on Darcelle.

Personality: Sophie is your classic high school geek, except she's smokin' hot (to be fair, point me at an ugly anime person and I'll show you hateful lies). As a result of a rather sheltered upbringing, Sophie suffers from crippling social awkwardness. She gets extremely nervous talking to people in any situation outside the lab. In fact, that's the only time she seems confident. In spite of this, she has a brilliant analytical mind and an unquenchable thirst for knowledge. Whenever she comes across something new, a fire lights up in her eyes and she launches into a rant on figuring out the how and why.

She is an avid fan of anime, manga and hentai, and owns a rather large collection of all three.

Shock Trooper Skill: Pacifier ~ The amount of Rage generated by Sophia's attacks (and her Pokemon's) is deducted from the target's Rage, and the target recieves no Rage gain for being attacked.

Signature Technique: Test Amoeba ~ 70/100 RP, Sophie throws a test tube on the ground around four enemies. The amoeba occupies the space of four spots in the enemy formation. Enemies in those positions are Bound (target cannot use contact moves or be switched out) and take Badly Poisoned damage. Enemies that switch into those spots will become trapped. The amoeba can only be destroyed by two Fire-type attacks and trapped enemies can use contact-type Fire moves for this purpose.

TsujimiName: Tsujimi

Type: Almighty

Ability: Indifference

Stats

HP: 80
Attack: 80
Defense: 80
Special Attack: 80
Special Defense: 80
Speed: 80
Total: 480

Species: Feral Demon

Appearance: Height: 4'5"; Weight: 115.4 lbs
Tsujimi has a humanoid body that is entirely white. It has a long head with a point at the end. It's eyes have red irises and it has no mouth or nose. It's torso, arms and legs are long and slender, and it has simple feet with no toes. It has five-fingered hands tipped with razor-sharp claws, and a long tail. Simple, yes, but deadly.

Personality: Tsujimi's name was actually given to it long ago by someone else, and they became known as such throughout the Netherworld. Tsujimis are semi-rare denizens of the Netherworld. They are notoriously hard to kill, due to the fact that they have absolutely no weak points, they emit an aura that enables them to penetrate any defense, and their unerring aim. They are also known for their shapeshifting capabilities. Due to the fact that they don't care much for anyone else, even others of their own species, they often wander alone. Tsujimis require no substenance and they do not tire. A Tsujimi does not bother to hide their Aura, and it will always display as a dark blue. A Tsujimi's only motivation is becoming stronger by fighting anyone it encounters. Nevertheless, they are smart, and know to run away when they are outmatched, usually to pursue their opponent for a while and strike them unawares. A lone traveler meeting a Tsujimi is the proud new owner of a death sentence.

Sophie encountered a Tsujimi that had wandered into the Umbral world and, thinking it was simply a previously undiscovered Pokemon, had a long and grueling battle and finally captured it. She is currently unaware that it is a Fiend, although the implications of Fiends from the Netherworld being susceptible to pokeballs are definitely interesting...

- All stats gain 15 points.

-----
Demon Half (Level 4)

- +20% of the base probability to inflict status effects with Slayer weapons. If she were attacking with fire to burn her enemy, she'd have 50 base, plus 20 percent of that would give her a 60% probability. If she were using ghost attacks she'd get one fifth of the base 25 percent, boosting her to 30%.

-----
Overblade (Level 1)

- Base Rage generated is increased by 2 times.
- RPDA lasts for five turns.
- Sophia gains an immunity to one of the following Pokemon types (Dragon, Electric, Fire, Ghost, Ice, Poison, Psychic, Water, Ruin)


About Mix & Match: I actually thought this one up last night, but for some reason I didn't include it in her upgrades. I must've been REALLY tired.

Anyway, like it says, Sophie can generate one of the items available to Medics. You know, Restores, Revives, Status healers and X-items, you know. Of course, she can't use it if she's already carrying six items. And she can't use it for someone else, either.

Immunities: Fire, Steel.



Conditional UpgradesConditional Upgrades:

1) At Demon Half 2 and Slayer 4, Sophia gains Chemical Knowledge. The effectiveness of all status effects is reduced by 50%. Status effects that normally take two turns to heal on require one turn's healing.

2) At Demon Half 3 and Slayer 5, Sophia gains Transfiguration, giving her a 5% chance of turning an attack directed at her into healing for the same amount of damage it would have done.



Trainer ActionsTrainer Actions:

Morphine: Damage for both Pokemon is reduced by 20% for the remainder of the turn.

First Aid: One Pokemon recovers 50% of their max HP.



Stats:

HP: 90
Attack: 115

Special Attack: 110
Special Defense: 90
Speed: 110

Total: 600



RPDA:

Sophie's RPDA is her very own Vernier Armor Mk II.

Stats: 50 points in each Attack, Special Attack and Speed.

Equipment Slots: Five weapons, three armors.

Equipment:

- Weapon Two: Wrist Rocket ~ Medium Fire damage, 2 targets, 50% Plasmaburn. Fires a rocket from her left wrist.
- Weapon Three: Beam Blade ~ Heavy Almighty damage, one target. A fuckin' lightsaber!
- Weapon Four: Electric Net ~ Light Electric damage, three targets, 70% Paralysis, Bound for two turns.

- Armor Two: Force Field ~ Reflects 25% of Special damage back to the attacker.
- Armor Three: Self-Repair System ~ Recover 20% max HP every turn.

Weight: Sophia's RDPA is another heavy unit. Don't expect any criticals or evasion, but even shit can smell like roses once in a while...for some reason.

Overdrive: Power of Science ~ All allies recieve 25% less damage from all elemental types for three turns.


Gem, you figured out what to do about her Splash skill? We gotta figure out what her chances of inflicting status on the two adjacent targets are.

Unless you mean we should apply that "20% of the base chance" to it too, in which case I may have to slap you.

I'll be linking this post from Pierce's bio.

Well then, three down, one to go.

Dunno, if I should bother with Sam right now. It'll be a long while yet before the joins.

^^; I seem to be very good at making you recoil. Stuff like the most absentmindly placed red heart or the sappiest description of a technique...


Anyhow, let's see what I can come up with for the RDPA, although I'm just totally making it up on the spot here...

Name: *Haven't chosen one yet...*

Stats: 100 in Attack. 50 in Speed.

Equipment Slots: 2 weapons, 6 armors

Equipment:

-Weapon One: Extremity Fist! ~ Light Almighty Type damage. Increased chance of critting. Apply Null Turn on the foe's next action if this attack crits.
-Weapon Two: Threshing Strike ~ Heavy Dragon damage to any three targets. 100% chance of -1 Defense and Paralysis. Ignores all defensive or immunity based abilities of the target.

- Armor One: Impervious Guard ~ 25% reduction to phsyical attacks
- Armor Two: Repelling Field ~ 25% reduction to special attacks
- Armor Three: Impulse Booster ~ High Boost to Speed and Evasion.
- Armor Four: Impulse Booster II ~ HIGHER Boost to Speed and Evasion.
- Armor Five: Narrow Slip ~ 50% chance to reduce damage to both phsyical and special attacks significantly if Renny is significantly faster than the foe. (Think of it as a glancing blow instead of a solid hit.)
- Armor Six: Riposte Defense ~ If a foe attempts to attack Renny and misses or if the attack is a glancing blow, Renny counterattacks with Weapon One.

Weight: Low, especially with armor specifically designed to make the RDPA agile. Should be quite fast and evasive, able to take a fair number of blows, and pack QUITE a punch, although lacking actual diversity in the attacks.

Overdrive shown in post above...

Hope everything looks ok! This is off the top of my head!

[Geminex]

Ok, before this goes any further: Pokemon's stats. NOW.
I promise I won't look them up, but you look very intent on comboing here, and I wanna know how much is possible.

[Menarker]

Fine Fine. But the only one who really could benefit from that is Shaymin in terms of Speed with paralysis if you're thinking about crit. (and she uses special attack which does not combo with the defense stat reduction that is part of the effect of the second attack). The rest of the pokemons are actually average or low speed, so it basically mitigates the chances of them being critted on as effectively. That and half of them use special attack mainly or have low attack stats to begin with.
