Pokemon Umbral Discussion 27: Prepare For Trouble... - Page 9

Wait, which one? Chizuru's flinching? Hey, yeah. Nice one.

Any thoughts on which pokemon you all want to deploy? We have one rounds' worth of time to prepare, so maybe something with a buff move. Pierce should send out Aria, we shouldn't use too many fire types.

Dracorion · 06-07-2010, 07:35 AM

Pierce's second can be Tyranitar. Again, get some sand all up in Wildfire's gears. Y'know how AB is with the environment, it might work! Although keep in mind that Aria's Drizzle would fuck up any fire attacks you want to throw at the footsoldiers.

I do agree with sending out Aria. I seem to remember AB saying or implying that Cerulean Wildfire and the rest of the HPG mechs can be inflicted with Overload and Short conditions.

Plus, if Pierce revives Tyranitar there's no need to use a Rage Rocket on him.

Geminex · 06-07-2010, 07:48 AM

Well, before AB replies regarding Prosperous Max Revives, we shouldn't get ahead of ourselves, I think. Assuming we can't get max revives all round, we should focus on reviving our more valuable pokemon, and giving the rest prosperous Full Restores.

Hammond, Tyranitar and Swampert look like the only ones we couldn't do without... and I'm not even sure about Hammond and Swampert. Maybe one of moon's pokemon as well, just to give him some rage.

And what poison attacks do we have at ready? What with all the rain, we probably shouldn't use fire against the foot soldiers.
Unless Pierce only deploys Aria at the beginning of the second turn (after wildfire arrives)
Then we could get one rounds' worth of sunny-day boosted fire attacks against the humans. Pierce could start the next round by sending in Aria, for the rain. The only problem is that we'd take increased fire damage from wildfire...
I still like the thought of using fire again, though.

Dracorion · 06-07-2010, 08:04 AM

Poison? We have Matthias, Harliette's Nidoqueen (Sludge Bomb, Toxic), Shannon's Shiftry (Toxic), Shannon's Roserade (Poison Jab). Matt hasn't taken an Enforcer yet, I think. So there's either Aster (Gastrodon or Lucario forms both have Poison attacks) or Hector's Skuntank (Sludge Bomb, Toxic)

Geminex · 06-07-2010, 08:07 AM

Cool. I think fire's still better, though. Particularly cause we already have sunny day in action, don't we?

Dracorion · 06-07-2010, 08:13 AM

We should still have it.

Anyway, we have a free turn to heal and get ready 'n' shit. I imagine Menarker is practically orgasming because he can buff Mollesk without anyone whining about him wasting an attack.

Geminex · 06-07-2010, 08:19 AM

Let mollesk actually buff itself?
Naaaah. There's got to be better things we could do with that action. Like have it try to tapdance. Or bake a cake.

...

Ok, ok, I'm joking. I'm not sure whether it's the best possible choice, but it's a possibility.

How come future shock did nothing with no explanation to why it did nothing? Did Zeus rod absorb it? Why did I just waste the RPs for nothing to happen?

Anyways, I'll probably need Hammond revived or Spitz healed. Maybe send out Sol-leks for Nasty Plot, but it seems we won't need fire.

E: Charlotte may be a little OOC with that speech, but I felt it necessary to point out to the Pokegeddon all of the things wrong with what they just did in the RP itself. Maybe they'll think before cheating next time.

Dracorion · 06-07-2010, 11:12 AM

I have no idea what happened to your Future Shock. Lopunnish didn't really deploy the Zeus Rod until Lanturn's move, so it should have hit all three targets.

Hey AB, I demand that Future Shock hit it's intended targets and that Lopunnish dies!

DAMNIT BARD! YOU FUCKING STOLE MY SPEECH.

Bard The 5th LW · 06-07-2010, 11:51 AM

To be fair, Charlotte is mostly exasperated and confused with their idiocy. Pierce is abhorred and disgusted with it. Same meaning, different emotions behind them.
