Pokemon Umbral Discussion 12: Is Impact the Piccolo of Pokemon Umbral?

[Geminex]

HELLO THERE. GUESS WHAT THIS FONT IS CALLED? YEP.

GUESS WHAT I'LL BE POSTING IN FROM NOW ON? YEP.

GUESS WHAT'LL BE FAR TOO MUCH WORK TO KEEP UP FOR MORE THAN A DAY, I MEAN SERIOUSLY, 4 FORMATTING OPTIONS THAT I NEED TO APPLY?
YEP.

STILL, MAYBE I CAN HAVE IMPACT TALK LIKE THIS IF HE GETS POSSESSED BY A DEMON LORD OR SOMETHING.

AND IF IT'S HALF AS ANNOYING TO READ AS I THINK IT IS, THEN ONE DAY SHOULD BE MORE THAN ENOUGH TO PISS EVERYONE OFF. THOUGH ADMITTEDLY, THAT'D BE MORE OF A BONUS, THIS IS PRIMARILY A MANIFESTATION OF MY RAGE AT HORRENDOUS PUNS. IF IMPACT WERE A VILLAIN IN MSPAINT ADVENTURES, HIS ONLY WEAKNESS WOULD BE PUNS. BECAUSE MY ONLY WEAKNESS ARE HORRENDOUS PUNS. I HATE THEM. HAAATE THEM. AS THE FORMATTING OF MY POSTS CURRENTLY INDICATES. YOU CAN THANK BLUES FOR THIS, BY THE WAY. GEM IN AN X, SERIOUSLY. HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO REACT?

ANYWAY, POSTING NOW.

[Menarker]

Trust me, the silliness is over, so nothing like PACTAzord by PMs.

And no, I'm not plotting that you all die horribly, why do you ask?

... As a show of good faith, I'll show my sixth pokemon that I was hiding since the way my writing had turned, hiding it is no longer needed. (Plus Pierce revealed his after all.) Note that it has all been approved, so no griping! (Renny's pokemons base stats are lower than Pierce's intended and approved dream team stats.)



6th Pokemon: A previously unknown evolution of Shuckle. Rumor has it that a Moon Stone is involved.
The evolution granted it more stamina and power as well as a more diverse moveset based on defence, support and cosmic ability. Shiny for kicks, since it doesn't really make a pokemon more powerful. Just something unique which no one has brought up yet.

Name: Mollesk (A pun on Mollusk and Molest... it does have tentacles after all :3)
Type: Rock/Bug
Ability: Simple > Doubles all changes to stats whether it is good or bad. Cosmic Power which normally boosts Defence and Special Defence by 1 stage would boost both by 2 stages instead. Similarly, Screech which reduces Defence by two stages normally would reduce it by four.

Stats: 680 total
HitPoints: 118 (Huge boost from Shuckle's HP stat of 20)
Attack: 100 (Huge boost from Shuckle's 10 and prevents every use of Mollesk from turning into a stall match.)
Defence: 230 (Unchanged from Shuckle)
Special Attack: 1 (Slightly lower from Shuckle's 10)
Special Defence: 230 (Unchanged from Shuckle)
Speed: 1 (Slightly Lower from Shuckle's 5)

Move List: All the moves that Shuckle has and the following. (Some of these I chosen just because I don't know if I'll ever come across a situation where it might come in handy. I might ask for a different one if I think it really apply, but these are what I came up with.

Any chance of asking for a custom move or two such as a combined version of Light Screen and Reflect? Otherwise, move list is unchanged from my last submission.

Cosmic Power
Light Screen
Reflect
Follow Me
Aromatherapy
Iron Defense
Amnesia
Recover
Destiny Bond
Gravity
Mimic
Power Swap
Teleport
Torment (Tentacles anyone?)
Trick Room
Drain Punch
Gunk Shot
Leech Life
Absorb, Mega Drain, Giga Drain
Bug Buzz
Extrasensory
Future Sight

Also, Mollesk isn't affected by Rain Dance as other rock pokemon because ingames they live by the ocean especially on the beach and occasionally even IN lakes.

[Dracorion]

I'm going to protest. Because I can.

It makes no sense for Mollesk to not to be affected by water if it's a Bug/Rock type. I mean, I get it's still going to take double damage from water, but you're making it immune to environmental factors. Which in this RP actually matter.

Tentacles? Really? I mean, Renny is already a shota boy, and you're bringing tentacles into the mix? Especially with all the ladies around?

Also, a description of what it looks like would be nice.

That's either going to go wrong or very very right.

[Menarker]

Description will come when it is introduced, but it's not a big stretch from a normal Shuckle. The shell btw, is blue as in later generations not purple like it was in the original generation.

The original form had tentacles too. This one is just a bit more obvious about it. ^,^

And there is a different reasons why you should worry about the tentacles. :3 Revealed at a moment more to my liking. ^^

I'm only half arguing the environmental issue because it's a valid opinion although AB said that these things are kinda subject. Like how Sunny Day while it boosts fire types, also boosts grass type despite being weak to fire. Typing isn't the supreme factor to the entire morale thing which itself was an invented concept. Mollesk actually got a legit reason which wasn't just made up but was actually in the games by the locations they could be found (and in real life is based on a sort of porous rock but I'm going overboard here.).
If AB thinks that part is a problem, then I'll accept it.

[Dracorion]

You know what? I don't wanna know anymore.

About Mollesk, I mean. You still have to come clean about everything else you and AB have been discussing behind our backs.

EDIT:

Oh come on. Shizuka at least had the decency to beat your character around. All she deigned for Pierce was a jerkass-kiss and a shove.

Besides, you already get to be more effective by not being the one in front.

EDIT 2.0: Y'know, I've been wondering why Impact is okay with the Kimonos. I mean, they're the ultimate Slayers, sure, but they have no problem with Pokemon.

NEVER! You're already blessed with this previously hidden info. :3 Just wait for what is expected to come. (Also doesn't help that I'm mainly just inputting my overall design of Renny's sidequest while AB fills in the gaps with his personal touch. It's like I'm Canada and he's USA and we are two totally seperate superpowers who don't actually share everything, open the gates briefly for diplomatic purposes then close it again. :3)

[Dracorion]

Oooh, interesting.

That doesn't immediately shoot down my theory.

Yeeeeah. It'll be awesome.
Or maybe I'll just have it exist OOC. Yeah, that'd be fun! Depending on characters' and player's actions, they'll move up and down on the list, I'll post regular updates, and whoever's still on it when the RP draws to a close gets an attempt on their life! Mock me now, and I'll double the offer, and throw a second attempt, FREE! No other sociopath'll do that!

What happen if you succeed on the first attempt when they mocked you?

This definately reminds me of Black Mage's alleged kill list. ^^

I did think before of having a sort of "Trust List" with a list of PCs/NPCs, a percentage representing his "trust ratio" and a short explaination of why. 100% would be like total acceptance and almost brainwash quality, while 0%... is pretty obvious.

[Dracorion]

Oh, Impact could never kill any team members.

He'd either die himself or end up shoulder-deep in shit.

[Menarker]

... Why does that sound like something Thief would say...?
