Pokemon Umbral Discussion 24: I Can Has Pokemon? - Page 9

Wasn't your plan to play defensively?

DanteFalcon · 05-31-2010, 03:34 AM

Because they were requested. Matthias's Special moves are

Venomoth: Does Poison, Sleep, Confusion and Paralysis to a single target with a 100% hit chance.

Castform: Changes the weather to whatever I feel like while still letting me throw in an attack for good measure.

Geminex · 05-31-2010, 08:21 AM

I think we could buff the Castform ability. Seems a bit weak.

Anyway, Hear Me, Mortals! Your Leader Has... DECIDED!
Basing this
a) on Menarker's plan
b) on AB's statement that our foes will run away if we do sufficient damage this turn.

Soldier A: Impact Fire, Charlotte Fire Fang, Mollesk Rock Slide
Soldier B: Empoleon's Ice Beam, Matthias Fire Blast, Nidoqueen's Sludge Bomb, Lanturn's discharge
Soldier C: Lanturn's Discharge, Moon's Kingdra's Dragon Pulse, Swampert's Hammer Arm, Wilhelmina's snipe
Solider D: Any remaining attacks
Charizard: Mollesk Rock Slide, Blissey double-edge, trainer attacks
Blaziken:
Typhsosion: Sleeping. Can ignore.
Infernape:

We'll get 4 kills, I hope. Enough to seriously demoralize our foes. Nothing big happening this turn... If you all agree with this, one of your characters can give orders. Renny, preferrably.

...

See? Not power-hungry at all!

Oh, and what should Impact's second item be? Another adrenaline boost?

Menarker · 05-31-2010, 10:31 AM

@Gem regarding above: No, my plan wasn't to play total defensive. My plan was to press the attack but using just enough lockdown to stop the ones who wouldn't be defeated, and thus focus the attack on the ones who aren't locked down, ensuring victory and safety. The turn after, the attack would be resumed on the ones who were locked down the previous turn.

I see you you didn't put Pierce in there at all. We could use his Gal Tech there to ensure that the enemy pokemons don't get a enemy phase before running away or such. (Not that important) But otherwise, we can add two of his attacks to the plan, especially if we use focus on both of them.
Also, Gem is there any reason why you removed the second "Impact Attack" from my plan? I thought you might wanna use the sweep ability so you can do the attacks full damage to adjacent target.

Anyhow Swampert is going to use Ice Beam, because there is a special attack device for 2 stage boost.

Anyhow, Renny and Pierce can use Focus to double the attack power of their pokemons to increase the chance the foes will die (Charlotte can too if Bard wants to edit his post a bit so she's using focus or Sol-lek is attacking or so)

Adrenaline boost sounds good if the battle is going to end soon.

Also, I would really appreciate if we had Blissey sing Infernape. Blissey has one of the crappiest attack stat ever in Pokemon and Double Edge barely helps. Infernape has Solarbeam out during a Sunny Day. Swampert is quad weak to Grass type.

And yes, don't ask me why Harriette gave 2 phsyical attack moves when Blissey is so much better with special attack moves. 75 Special Attack is better than 10 Attack. (And didn't give a move that could trigger Blissey's Serene Grace like Thunderbolt or Ice Beam or something) Guess she's not that good a trainer.

AB: Is there any possibility that NPCs might consider becoming demons in the future? I was thinking of having Renny chat up Lola incharacter. Seeing how she said she won't stay young and beautiful forever (and that she seemed worried about it)... and how the demonification form makes it permanent, Renny might suggest it. Of course, I/he could totally understand if she's afraid of it, grossed out by it or what not.

EDIT: I just remembered that I got enough RP for a Testament Drive by Mollesk! >_> *Insert Multiple Tentacles of Rapidly Forced Intrusion!* I bet AB would have fun showing everyone's shocked reaction (Rayleen might be pleased by a HPG soldier being fucked to hell) to Renny's horror who only decided to experiment to see if Mollesk really WAS legendary...

Dracorion · 05-31-2010, 12:16 PM

Oh, fuck your Swampert.

And yeah, you can do your Spiked Tentacles of Forced Intrusion all you like. It's not like when you pull that crap it isn't a ridiculously transparent method to inject some maturity into Renny.

Menarker · 05-31-2010, 02:34 PM

I didn't intend anything like that. Mainly comedy. Renny doesn't really know for certain if Mollesk is legendary since there has never been such a thing as a non-legendary pokemon evolving into a pokemon that supposably is one. In Renny's sidequest, someone suggested that he might have been legendary because he was forced summoned. Basically, he's experimenting with the notion by requesting that Mollesk does a Testament Drive. With results he could not predict.

"Mollesk! Can you do a Testament Drive!?"
*Cue horrible results as he watch dumbfounded*
"Mollesk... That wasn't what I wanted!"

And still maintaining that my request is strategically sound for reasons already listed above. Getting Blissey to sing a pokemon asleep is better than any piddling damage that would result, especially if it'll remove the chance of one of my pokemon being knocked out.

Astral Harmony · 05-31-2010, 03:18 PM

Lola wouldn't do it. No way in hell would Lola do it. She envisions herself a sexy angel in white, so there's no way she'd become a succubus.

Yes, a succubus. With a woman like Lola, a succubus could only result.

Anyways, I'll post in the RP this afternoon. Time for work.

Dracorion · 05-31-2010, 03:37 PM

Your posting in the RP relies on us getting off our collective asses and deciding on a strategy.

An angel in white with black garters and lingerie. =P

Anyhow, the hard part about this current set-up is having to run everything by Geminex. But we're pretty much almost there.

Only thing that needs to be clarified is:
1: What Pierce is going to do. Is he using Gal-Tech to flinch 6 foes? Is he spending Focus on both his attacks? Got something else in mind?
2: Will Mollesk be using his Testament Drive instead of Rock Slide? (Personally advise that)
3: Will we use Blissey to sing to Infernape to protect Swampert from potentially being OHKO by a Solarbeam as opposed to using Double-Edge which is utterly weak on a pokemon with only 10 Attack (Similar to a ordinary Shuckle)
4: Is Impact going to use Sweep (25 rage) to hit two adjacent targets for the full damage?

Geminex · 05-31-2010, 06:34 PM

From AB's post, I assumed that we really wouldn't need to do that much damage to finish this fight. That's why I refrained from using and rage points.
As for Blissey, I know that its attack stat is crap. I was hoping AB woulnd't realize. ^^
Also, I couldn't find the post where he discussed all the things that's cause negative morale effects to the enemy. Will status effects lower the enemy morale? I did't think they would, hence Blissey's attack.

But I could edit a bit...

Soldier A: Charlotte Fire Fang, Mollesk Rock Slide, Moon's Kingdra's Dragon Pulse, Swampert's Ice Beam, Wilhelmina's snipe
Soldier B: Impact's fire attack, Lanturn's discharge, Pierce's Kingdra
Soldier C: Impact's second attack (yeah, he'll use sweep), Lanturn's Discharge, trainer attacks
Solider D: Empoleon's Ice Beam, Matthias Fire Blast, Nidoqueen's Sludge Bomb Pierce's Blaziken,
Charizard: Mollesk Rock Slide
Blaziken:
Typhsosion: Sleeping. Can ignore.
Infernape: Blissey sing

I think they'll run.

Edit: Ok, so I forgot sweep can only hit to adjacent targets. That should be fixable, though. Just a minor rearrangement...
There, fixed.

And did you all know that we had a Psyduck emoticon?
