Pokémon Academy: Ymora Region [OOC / Registrations Closed]


Chim

Recommended Posts

I know that wasn't my best posting, but I tried keeping to as close as the Pokemon personalities and the storyline as much as possible. I may edit it later to make it a bit less sloppy, but my priority is getting this finished. Tomorrow afternoon or tomorrow night, I'll post the rest of it up.

My intention was to allow anyone to post at almost anytime, but each PC would have one Pokemon take a lead role during different segments (aka divide the involvement equally). If we do another group effort, I'm, and hopefully everyone else, is not going to let it drag on this long.

Welp, my apologies Chim. It's pretty much my fault. I thought I'd be able to do it after a good night's sleep, but I still felt like crap (and I still do).

So yeah, I apologize for not keeping up with what I've written and made you expect from me :c I feel really bad now.

P.s. I won't be posting for the remainder of this week/until I start feeling better so feel free to skip Shiro and/or bunny him if needed. However, I'll definitely be back for Winter Cup so dont make him lose that npc battle.

Alright I was just confused because it didn't look like that was the last part. Anyway I'll wait to update until it's finished. I just wanted to see some movement after days of barely any activity.

Truthfully, I was a rock in a hard place because my character doesn't seem the type to narrate something. I kind of turned it into more of a synopsis to get around that issue. The main purpose of the play idea was to give more Pokemon a chance to use moves to create visuals, but I cut a lot out because I needed to get through this thing ASAP (and I actually have a chunk of homework still left to do).

And thus it begins....

Also this might sound a bit ignorant but did Java actually evolve?(Sorry if it seems obvious)

Um yeah... I thought I made a pretty strong implication of that with the whole flashback scene from after the show... and the mentioning of him being "Sleek and rounded" in the scene in the challenger Waiting room

@Azery: I just wanted to give you a heads up that Henry disabled her Vullaby's Gust, not Skrelp's Acid (I even checked to make sure I was clear on that).

Just out of curiosity, if this was a real fight between Kristen and Henry and Kristen wasn't nervous, who do you think would win? I'm just a bit curious and it doesn't bother me if you say Kristen.

Hmm... well, in terms of overall teams, I think they'd both have a decent chance to win since it's kinda evenly matched (Like, no one has a complete type pwnage over the other)

Though, it seems that Henry's style is more effective and tried and tested in terms of his past experiences, while IMO Kristen appears to not have that level headed advantage given what we've seen of her battles so far. She seems a bit rash in her actions at times during a fight, allowing emotion to influence her orders instead of analyzing the situation and using that to determine her response.

So I'd give the win to henry due to seemingly slightly/ moderately superior scenario and combo training with his partners ((EX, like the combo he used to test her reaction this match. I have yet to see Kristen actually use a preplaned combo in a fight... but then again, I just kinda skimmed over them, so might be wrong about that.)), the ability to keep a level head, and more past overall experience from his time in Ore

When it comes to teams, I actually think Kristen has the better team of the two, but it's Henry's skills that give him the advantage over her. Even at this point, some of Henry's Pokemon have checks to counter their weaknesses such as Gypsy's Disable, but Kristen's hit very hard with her Skrelp's Adaptability and her Azumarill's Huge Power (unless it's still a Marill).

My impression of Kristen is that she likes to go all offense. Just looking at the past battles, it looks as if Henry is much stronger on the defensive side of things. This also is a double battle, Henry's strongpoint, which most of Kristen's Pokemon don't seem designed for. In the current situation, there really isn't much Kristen could do. Gypsy could easily shut down her Skrelp's Water Pulse which would allow Gypsy to easily overpower it. As for the Vullaby, Rose could shut down just about everything else it could do except if it had Nasty Plot with Snarl, but I don't see her Pokemon knowing that combination of moves. Inevitably, I think Henry would win this battle one way or another.

If this were a singles, that's a whole different story. I could see Henry having a whole lot of trouble trying to fend off her Pokemon attacks. All of her Pokemon pretty much shut down Burrows and Rosie easily leaving Gypsy as the main fighter. It'd be a lot closer of a match compared to the doubles, but I'd say Kristen would win because Henry's Pokemon don't have too great of an endurance.

Kristen still has a Marill. Aside from the Vullaby (which I only added because of Avis) her team will be all out offensive. In a one on one she could easily take Henry if there wasn't an audience. In a double battle she's at a disadvantage because I didn't give her decent support moves compared to the Skitty's Sing or Assist. Anyway I made her give in to her nerves because I have other plans with her in the future.

Uh Chim, you could've told me disable only works on one move at a time instead of one move per Pokemon like in the games. Would've probably used it on Skrelp's Water Pulse instead.

Edit: Henry really has been toying with her. I'm pretty sure he wouldn't go full out on someone who is breaking down like that (mostly because he loves screwing with people). Also, Henry taunts are fun to write.

I decided that on the spot xD I felt like it would be a bit too much if you could freely disable whatever attack you want without restrictions. Also the gust would be more annoying for Henry to deal with since that's Kristen's only counter against Sing / Stun Spore.

I agree,the begining is tricky to make out but it gets intense as it progresses.

It has the creepy vibe to it which fits James and it keeps all the intense power!

I didn't have the Vullaby hit with the attack yet because I don't know how under control Kristen is with her Vullaby. Since Disarming Voice does "emotional damage" I figured the effect would vary from Pokemon to Pokemon. I'll use Gypsy as an example. Seeing how Gypsy is emotionless and really doesn't give a crap about anyone, it'd basically do practically nothing. Burrows, however, is a bit overdramatic and he'd probably halt his attack after hearing it.

As for Charm, I'm just going to say there's a bit of magic to Rosie's (well if you look at her movepool, you practically could consider her a magician). Basically, think of it like your Pokemon is now thinking they're up against a cute, innocent little puppy Skitty that they have to hit. Unless they don't have a soul, they might start holding back to make sure they don't severely harm it. (Infatuation would be the next level up, but Cute Charm and Attract would only affect Male Pokemon).

Just wanted to point that out in case anyone wasn't sure when it came to battling. Most of it's current moves aren't going to be used in future chapters so it's not really that big of a deal.

The Vullaby is her ace and has a similar personality, only a little more cruel and unforgiving. Kristen has her under perfect control.

Normal types in general have the most diverse moveset, iirc. naturally, I find the lack of Dark/Electric, Dark/Normal types disturbing

Also, for Lucifer and Shade: Achievement Get: Rivalry!

Well one's final evo's a Soul Burning Chandelier while the other's a Grim Reaper Cyclops.

RIVALRY!
