Pok�mon Umbral Discussion 8: I'll Guard Her Voir! Wait, That Makes No Sense... - Page 8

Let me guess. You want to be cast as the main villain?

Geminex · 04-05-2010, 04:45 AM

That would be the case. I mean, Impact's entire reason for getting the fully-demonic upgrade would be eventual domination of Homnyr (and after that... who knows?). He's definetly going to apply them. A lot of stuff can go wrong, of course, but I've already described a fairly reasonable scenario. A scenario which would embody all of Impact's ideals, but involve a lot of trainers losing their pokemon. A scenario which Renny and Pierce would (as Pierce said) rebel against most vigorously.

Even if I don't join the sequel, as long as the others want to, I'd be totally happy with Impact being the main villain in that one. As long as he isn't defeated too easily. I might even make a cameo appearance or two, where I actually write him.

Though if all that's gonna happen, I'll really have to work on giving him some more character, as well as making him evil (he's still true neutral at the moment) over the course of the RP.

Pok�mon Obsidian: The Impact Felt Throughout the World, a tale of one man's ambition to abolish Pok�mon training. A tale of one man's determination to change a world engulfed in the eons old practice of raising combat animals. A tale of one's man internal struggle over conquering the world or being able to eat Chizuru's cooking. Coming this September. Rated R for graphic violence, graphic sex, sexy violence, sexy nudity, and sexy nude graphics.

And comical nosebleeds.

I like it. We could totally make a manga out of that.

And I just read the post.
You fucking bastard.

Now, I don't know, what fear aura does, but I can guess. "Some kind of defensive move", eh? Perhaps the kind of defensive move that prevents all damage for a turn? Including the damage that Phantomere would take from three effing signature drives? That kind of damage?

Now, perhaps I'm wrong, and if so I retract the "fucking bastard", but it's exactly the kind of very annoying thing that I'd do if I were GMing. So we'll wait and see, yes?

Edit:

Yes. One on every page. Though if Impact is the villain, does he miss out on the fanservice-fest? Because the only female so far is Charlotte, and she's not fanservice fodder. No matter what fanfics Drac writes.
Or does Impact just get lots of sidekicks?

It is quite likely Matthias will finally be pulling out his paradigm shift. Hopefully he'll be able to help in the damage against Phantomere.

Geminex · 04-05-2010, 05:55 AM

I was actually hoping to focus on killing zombies this turn. Phantomere's used some sort of defensive technique, and I don't trust it. Sure, we could all focus fire on it again, but what I'd do much rather is kill zombies this turn, so that we can fully focus on killing Phantomere next turn. He doesn't seem to be capable of healing himself again (I hope), so we might actually be able to finish him off. The only problem is that we'll be down a few fighters, thanks to the death clock, but Phantomere'll take three testament drives that, I hope, his ability won't be able to fend off.

TL;DR: Paradigm shift is great, but perhaps attack Breloom with an air-type move, instead of hitting phantomere. Also, here's what I've got planned for attacks this round:

Breloom: Flying (possibly matt?), failing that, psychic (Latios/as). 2 pokemon attacks, along with Shannon's machete.
Kabutops: Grass (2-hit) Shannon's pokemon
Forterress: Fire (1-hit) Blaziken (Pierce should deploy)
Tropius: Anything (1-hit, Charlotte's shotgun?)
Cradily: Steel 1-hit, Rachel's metagross?
Heracross: Flying. Failing that, psychic. Probably not gonna die this round.

I think it'd work well enough. As you see, even if we take down 5 zombies this turn, we'll still have quite a lot of attack power left over.

What d'you guys think?

Dracorion · 04-05-2010, 09:09 AM

Oh boy, where do I start.

Pierce did order Kingdra! It was right there at the end of my last post, Kingdra was attacking Omnisroth with a Dragon Pulse! How'd you miss that?

Also, Pierce is not happy. Pierce is not happy at all. He didn't get a badass machete or a shotgun. Well, maybe a little happy. Aside from having Tyranitar downed he's been completely ignored by the enemies. Probably because he's downing his own pokemon.

Or maybe Pierce is the Ruin Commander everyone's been looking for! THAT WOULD BE TOTALLY FREAKING AWESOME. Either way, maybe we should take advantage of it and revive Tyranitar.

And you son of a bitch, Samantha was going to be Pierce's sister's name. Name-stealin' bastard. (No, Harliette is not Pierce's sister. Are you freakin' kidding me?)

Sounds good, Gem. Consider Foretress down, courtesy of Overheat. There ain't no kill like overkill, after all. I'll have Kingdra test Phantomere's defenses with a Dragon Pulse, y'know, if AB doesn't miss it.

EDIT: As an afterthought, if Impact tried to take over Honmyr, Pierce would set things up so that, if Impact killed him, he could go "If you strike me down I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine" and it'd be true.

First of all, I agree that the aura is suspcious. Secondly, you should re-read the summary since Breloom is already knocked out.

Agree with Kabutops, and Forterress. Tropicus is being dealt with by Latias for quad damage due to ice. Targetting Heracross with Outrage since I can't switch out or have Swampert do another move. A Psychic or flying move on top of that would be good, or even Charlotte using her shotgun here instead of Tropicus.

Question. Will the shotgun ber any actual effect against Phantomere, or will it go through him like a fighting/normal type against a ghost.

Dracorion · 04-05-2010, 12:27 PM

Well, Explosion is a Normal-type attack and it hit Phantomere both times (though why it did beats the hell out of me), so the shotgun should work.
