Buh.

What does this mean? I think you're saying that pokemon go rogue when their masters are attacked after they've been knocked out, but that's retarded.

I mean, "HEY GUYS THAT DUDES ATTACKING RAYLEEN LET'S GO PROTE- Oh wait, he already drove a sword through her chest nevermind". The way it would plausibly work is if the second the trainer is knocked out, the pokemon go rogue to defend them. Not when the bad guys decide to shoot them in the head because by then it's far too late.

Not so much tell you how to do it. More like set some limits. As in "No moving, no talking. Feel free to have out-of-body experiences". Or something like that. I'm not AB.

Oh yeah, forgot about that. In restrospect, yeah, makes sense that we would only be able to switch out with our assigned Enforcers. Otherwise, what's the point of assigning them to a specific PC in the first place?

Then we can use Grill Gore on one target that we can't or don't want to deal with, and knock it away for two turns, while using the Laser on the same turn.

Um. Lexhur's Rage was at 400 last turn. When this turn starts, it'll be at 500. If we have him spend 100 RPs this turn, he'll still be at 500 RPs at the start of next turn.
