Pokemon Umbral Discussion 16: Should We Throw a Sweet Sixteen Party?

[Menarker]

As much as I would like to make my post, I still need the answers to quite a few questions up above. Also, we're going to likely end up with another discussion thread... ^^

Also, I'm sure you already know this, but this particular ruin general is somewhat resistant to dragon moves due to steel type resisting it. Its still the best element to use, but don't expect him to be terribly agonized by any single hit.

[Geminex]

Impact would fraternize with the epitome of everything he despises?

Toche. Very good point. So I guess I'd have to have them terrorize the population to rile it up against pokemon. That works as well.

Ooh, and I'm going to make a commitment here:
For the next 4 weeks I will make little, if any, complaints about things being OP or other balancing issues. I'm curious as to how things will play out. Possibly horrible, but I'm going to trust AB.

...

This would be Drac's and Menarker's cue to make posts filled entirely by this guy:

[Menarker]

So, basically, if "Geminex military profile report" (your bio) is correct, Impact is going to instigate the very incidents of pokemon terrorism that he strove to eliminate since he suffered from them since childhood? I wonder if his morals (if any) or his vengeful emotions could cope with the hypocrisy.

As for your offer...

GONNA CHEAT! GONNA CHEAT! GONNA CHEAT! GONNA CHEAT! GONNA CHEAT! GONNA CHEAT! GONNA CHEAT! GONNA CHEAT! GONNA CHEAT! GONNA CHEAT! GONNA CHEAT! GONNA CHEAT! GONNA CHEAT! GONNA CHEAT!

<(^.^<) "(^.^)" (>^.^)>

You'll go "Oh, why did I make such a stupid promise?" "Now everything will burn!" You will wail.

You're assuming legendaries are susceptible to mind control.

Need I remind you that a lot of them are psychics?

Meh. I won't celebrate until Pierce emits a pheromone cloud that immediately makes any woman fall in love with him.

Menarker's suggestion for Charlotte to star in Pokemon Snap 2 is brilliant! I either need to stop sucking ass at programing or phone Nintendo.

And by next mission, I have a little test planned for Impact. Shits gonna get real once it happens.

Would this require Charlotte to be in Impact's team?

1: He's gonna get massively corrupted during my sidequest.
2: If you can even call it corruption. It'll simply be a "greater good" sort of scenario. A few will get terrorized so that he can get power, he'll use this power to improve the lives of everyone else. And then he'll take over the world. And then make the world a better place. And then everyone will be happy. THE END.

*Just kidding*

This is gonna be a test of willpower.

Oh, I'm sorry! What a foolish mistake! Of course, an incredibly powerful, primal being that can crush us like bugs if it so pleases, yes, can even control space and time, would never, ever allow itself to be controlled by a mere mortal, no matter what magical or technological means said mortal has.
OH, WAIT.

And by next mission, I have a little test planned for Impact. Shits gonna get real once it happens.

*grins*
Fuck yeah. Bring it on.

[Bard The 5th LW]

It will be a pre-mission thing. Although Impact is going to have to fail it, or else things will be a bit off-kilter. It relies on Impacts hypocracy not getting the best of him. Since you guys probably don't care, I'll put it here under spoiler tags.

For all but Geminex. Charlotte is going to follow through with Impact's sentiment about pokemon being 'monsters' and see his reaction if she offers him Latios. His reaction should tell them enough.

I totally know Gem looked at that. You can't lie to me. Never goin' to forgive you bro.Totally broke my trust pre-emptively.

[Geminex]

Dude. You wound me. How can you assume I'd be so base and mean to break such a valued trust?


Edit:
Ok, now I looked. But I hadn't looked before.
Though how's that gonna test him? All that world-domination? He doesn't intend that, yet. He wants political power, but, hell, he's 22. He's barely thought that stuff through. He doesn't even really lust for power, yet. He's an evil genius in the making, but I've been describing what he'll be like, not what he is, or what he's planning. So yeah, he won't see any use for it, yet.

Renny/Impact is the only person pairing who hasn't teamed up at all and there are a few pairings which hasn't happened often. All together battles like the safe battle and the first Ruin General don't count!

Impact with...
Renny: Never happened
Pierce: Twice already. Mission 2 and Renny's sidequest.
Charlotte: Only at the start of Mission 1.
Matthias: At the start of Mission 1 and during Mission 2.

Renny with...
Impact: Never happened.
Pierce: Only on the rooftop during mission 1.
Charlotte: Mission 2
Matthias: Renny's Sidequest

Pierce with...
Impact: Twice. Mission 2 and Renny's Sidequest
Renny: Once on Mission 1's rooftop.
Charlotte: Renny's Sidequest
Matthias: Mission 2.

Matthias with...
Impact: Mission 2.
Renny: Renny's Sidequest.
Pierce: Mission 2
Charlotte: Only at the start of Mission 1.

Charlotte with:
Impact: Renny's Sidequest
Renny: Mission 2
Pierce: Renny's Sidequest
Matthias: Only at the start of Mission 1.

So, it seems that if we're working on pairings we haven't seen yet, it would be Renny/Impact and Matthias/Charlotte. Pierce either way will either have a second turn with Renny whom he hasn't spent much time with either or a second turn with Charlotte/Matthias.
