Pokemon Umbral Theatre 12: On a Very Special Episode of Pokemon Umbral...

[Astral Harmony]

Shizuka: "Pierce is mine!"
Violet: "But I love Pierce and I've having his baby!"
Shizuka: "And I'm having a lot more than you are!"
Chizuru: "Which is curious considering I'm the one he's actually trying to get with."

Lola: "Renny, I think I'm pregnant, and Impact's the father."
Renny: "That sonuva-"
Lola: "Renny, I think I'm pregnant, and Burkmont's the father."
Renny: "But we're still debating whether or not he's your father. So you did your own dad?"
Lola: "Renny, I think I'm pregnant, and Togekiss is the father."
Renny: "Incidentally, Lola, I heard that a delivery of fine Mollesk vintage wine came in the mail yesterday but couldn't find it. Any idea what might've happened to it?"
Lola: "Renny, I think I'm pregnant, and Sophia is the father."
Renny: "...'Kay, I think I know where the wine went."

Anyways, pictures. Yeah.







Yeah, I've clearly lost my mind.

Damrite.

Though, I'm curious, who's Violet and how did Pierce bone her without having met her?

Oh, wait. She's the Beautifly, isn't she?

I'll admit it, I laughed at that last one.

Oh AB, you lost your mind long ago.

EDIT: Also, Mudkip.

I don't know how that little bastard became so hated.

[Bard The 5th LW]

I had to go into the quote to find that, but the last image was worth it.

Yeah, I've clearly lost my mind.

Its why we love you.

[Menarker]

*Winch at the Lola omake* Ok, that made me chuckle a little, but geez everyone is lining up at her door ever since Mollesk way way back! ^^; Of course, she's drunk as heck and is probably only hallucinating the entire thing. :3

He's just a victim of over-meme-ization. That said, he's awesome. ^^ Mudkip family FOREVER!

And yes, Violet is the Beautifly pokebrid. AB said that once already.

Yeah, I've clearly lost my mind.

And yet, it's an overwhelming success!



EDIT:
Also, editing my last post of the previous thread here since I made the post mere minutes before AB made this new thread.

Just a little reminder Bard that Medics can use two items a turn. So she could put both X Attack on Kyrie. Also, you might want to have Kyrie buffed before she attacks. That and you'd want Super Fang to hit first so to take out the biggest chuck as possible.

Proposed revision of your plan, changing nothing but the order and giving Kirie an extra X attack.

Melanie: Two X-attack on Kirie
Charlotte: Spits to use Super Fang on Pulverot A. Hammond to use Dragon Claw on Narcham B
Kirie: Morphstrike (dragon) on Pulverot A. Entei to use extrsensory on Pulverot A.
Matt: Psychic on Pulverot A
Cassus: Dragonite to use Dragon Rush on Pulverot A. Scizorto use x-scissor on Narcham B.

Gem, reposting the battle plan for our side here. Also, I edited it slightly because I did a little rereading the past discussions and apparently Engineer constructions count as free actions according to AB.

Lola: Chimecho form. Use Gravity. X attack on Kurika? (X defense items would be useless against Almighty Type attacks)
Whitney: Shedninja and Armaldo both use X-Scissor on Kill dolls A and B for STAB damage, while keeping herself out of combat for the time being.
Kurika: Nerve Strike (Electric type despite kill dolls not having any nerves) for super effective damage on Kill Doll C.
Mirror: Build Fire Evolith. Bone Breaker on Kill Doll F
Fire Evolith: Casts Heat Wave, hitting kill dolls D and E with slayer-ish power.

Alternatively, if you want to risk getting knocked out, Impact is out instead of Kurika and Sweeps 2 side by side Kill dolls with water or electric weapon and Lola uses either X Attack or Special Attack (depending on what attack stat you're attacking with). Accuracy won't be an issue, courtesy of Gravity.

[Bard The 5th LW]

Yea, the way I posted it isn't meant to be the actual order of the attacks. I just sorta figured they get automatically placed in proper order.

Melanie: Two X-attack on Kirie
Charlotte: Spits to use Super Fang on Pulverot A. Hammond to use Dragon Claw on Narcham B
Kirie: Morphstrike (psychic) on Pulverot A. Entei to use extrsensory on Pulverot A.
Matt: Psychic on Pulverot A
Cassus: Dragonite to use Dragon Rush on Pulverot A. Scizorto use x-scissor on Narcham B.

If Any enemy dies, shift all remaining attacks meant for that target to Narcham I

This is what I was intending order-wise.

[Menarker]

Yeah, that's pretty good. Although for the sake of being nit-picky, Scizor could use Iron Head for STAB super effective damage on that Narcham. It's also a wee bit stronger and has a 30% flinch chance.

Also, Pulverot is quad weak to Psychic, so maybe Kirie should be attacking with psychic type, not dragon.

Might also want to say whom you want the group to attack if Pulverot gets defeated before everyone gets the chance. I mean, Super Fang, +2 attack boosted quad effective Kirie, and a few other psychic attacks would probably bring him down fast.

[Bard The 5th LW]

Actually, in my previous post I indictated that I want all other attacks shifted to Narcham I if Pulverot A dies. Forgot to add it into the revised though.

Forgot Pulverot was part fighting though. Mixed its type up with Gendom. Thanks for the reminder.

And I may have mentioned it earlier, but Arceus is going psychic type for this mission.

Y'know, I can't help noticing that that plan really hasn't changed very much at all. I thought I made suggestions? I'm sure I made suggestions.

I've stated that Mirror really shouldn't be constucting. If he does construct, it should be an aplifier. Evoliths just don't pay off in this situation. But we hardly need any more attack power than we already have. And defensive amplfiers won't pay off. So just let him wait for now.

Shedninja's gonna go down in a single killdoll blow. Really not worth it. Armaldo's fine, but there's no reason not to use Whitney. She can't get knocked out, and our opponents can't do status. She's safe, she can attack quite powerfully. What's the problem?

I'll think about Kurika or Impact. Although, why on earth would we use two sweeps? I mean honestly! Rage isn't free anymore, we're gonna have to work for it! Sweep gives you one extra attack for 25 rage. We have way better deals than that.

This battle's not gonna be easy, of course! But it's really, really not a good use of resources to go all-in like this.
I'm all in favor of all-ins, mind you. As long as the odds are right. But here? Nah.
Gotta know when to hold em, gotta know when to fold em. Gotta know when to walk away, gotta know when to run. I just decided that Impact's an awesome poker player.

Anyway, let's hold for now. See what they've got, how strong they really are. Then we can go all-in, if the situation warrants it.

And in regards to that last comment, look, antagonizing me with that kind of comment is Drac's job not yours. Unless you've actually forgotten about the whole 'weather effects' discusion? I don't think you have. If gravity's a weather effect, it'll get balanced along with all the other weather effects. If it isn't, it should get restricted to three targets.

Do we really want to see the bottom of the barrel? I mean, I'm usually the first one to go for something like that, but in this case it has the potential to go disasterous. And not fun disaster, either.

Y'know what? Let's do this. Let's go all-out, over-the-top. Let's jump Jaws.
Because heh, y'know what's a disaster? Trying to keep this logical and respectable. And y'know what'd be an even bigger disaster? If we succeeded.

I said a while ago that my goal when role-playing is to write a good story. There's more than one way to do that. And over-the-top? That's certainly a way. TTGL did it. Homestuck is doing it. Why not try to follow in their footsteps?

Mind you, all-out doesn't mean uncontrolled, or shit. If we do it this way, it'll probably take more thought than it used to, since we'd be on a fine line of awesome above a gorge of ridiculousness. Let's retain some basic logic, make the characters, the conflicts believable. It's very easy to justify things, and it's easy to hand-wave stuff if they're uninteresting compared to the boobs and explosions. This would take rather a lot of coordination. But heh, if we put effort into it, I'd be surprised if we didn't pull it off. I mean, come to think of it, AB's been writing it this way since the second mission. If we support him, come up with our own wacky stuff, justify each others things...

we could do this man
we cuold make this hapen

Mirror's a girl.

I hope you're thinking about Moon.

If I remember correctly, the only one here who thinks weather effects are unbalanced is you.

Menarker and I honestly believe they're fine as is.

I mean, hell, who uses weather effects in the game? There are a rare few situations where weather effects are actually viable instead of the ever popular "spam most powerful move" strategy. And in those situations, you're probably not going to use weather effects because you've been killing shit without them so far and you're not going to waste time or money giving a pokemon a stupid weather move for one freakin' battle when you're just going to go right back to killing shit the usual way anyway.

So yeah, compared to how useless they are in the games, I'm definitely okay with weather effects in this RP. They're, y'know, useful.

Why are you making a big speech about bands?

And sure, what the hell, let's do it.

But why are you making a speech?

I don't think you have. If gravity's a weather effect, it'll get balanced along with all the other weather effects. If it isn't, it should get restricted to three targets.

I was not trying to be antagonistic in any manner or fashion. I'm saying that Sweep would not miss and thus waste rage because of Gravity reducing evasion. Unless you're talking about some other comment, but I assure you I had no intention in being antogonistic in any of my recent past posts. But like I said before and Drac said, we don't think weather is overpowered, especially since there is heavy potential to be used against us when AB feels like it. >_> For that matter, maybe that was what AB meant the evoliths to be for, since they can change the weather. But I did suggest in the future that AB could have certain conditions preset before the battle start so as to make them balanced in the foe's favor (Weather and foes that can use them, spikes and other skills that can be prepared in advance) as examples of the foe's preperations for intruders.

The reason why I had Mirror put an Evolith is because the Killdolls have a low total amount of hitpoints and they hit hard especially in large numbers. An Evolith is not only an extra attacker (this one can practically knock out 2 foes per turn) but also an extra target that can take blows, spreading the damage out. Also, as AB said and I said in my previous post, constructing is a free action and thus Mirror can attack during the same turn. The killdolls main advantage is their double attacking, their Almighty type attacks, and their evasion to make up for their low stamina. Now, stamina is not an issue.

As for Whitney and Shedninja, I figured that it would be best for Whitney to stay in the backline and be perfectly untouched until she gains rage to do Paradigm Shift. Then she can go in the front line with enhanced stats, defensively and offensively. Shedninja being knocked out helps this, since when he gets revived, Whitney will gain a Rage Rocket courtesy of her leader pokemon being revived. Thus, we hold her back for one turn until she can get 60 rage (easy since she'll reach that with both pokemons attacking and giving her 10 rage on top of the 50 she has already), then we send her out next turn with doubled stats and thus able to sweep with Swift and such.
Also, I'm pretty sure AB said in a past thread there was restrictions on how rogue pokemons attack. Like 2 at a time or something?

AB: Can you clarify in more details exactly what happens and the rules and restrictions for how rogue pokemons under dead/fainted trainers act? Is it free for all or are there any specific rules?

EDIT: Also, the foes we're facing are all robotic and might not realize that defeating Whitney could unleash her pokemons.

And yes, Mirror is a girl. In particular, she's one of the girls latched onto Moon.

Also, the entire gist of my plan is to reduce the numbers ASAP before they start overwhelming with 20+ attacks and being able to do so reliably. All of this is supported by Gravity, powering up Whitney by keeping her healthy and giving her the turn she needs to get rage for Paradigm Shift the next turn, and that sort of thing.
