Sutoratosu Posted August 14, 2015 Author Share Posted August 14, 2015 Yes, I mean the standard skill level and team strength of a standard E4 member from any of the common regions. So basically his team is between level 60-66. basically the same challenge someone would face if they made it past the finals of a League cup tourney.

Darvan Korematsu Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 Ahem, I kinda hate to be "that guy" again, but what I had in mind to combat the Blaziken could help and harm everyone at the same time. It's kind of a dick move, but would y'all mind if I Discharged? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sutoratosu Posted August 14, 2015 Author Share Posted August 14, 2015 Think I should mention before you screw over everyone that the attack paths of moves like Discharge and Lavaplume can be controlled if the user is skilled enough and has practiced them enough. The reason such moves are constantly classified as hitting everyone is because when most pokemon first learn the move, they aren't used to handling the raw amount of power being discharged and as such aren't able to control it as well as it would be for something like Flamethrower... and so the attack ends up going literally everywhere and hits everyone ((I shit you not, not even trainers are safe if they stand too close to the field.)) Basically, it's akin to the trope of dropping cluster F-bombs versus that of the Precision F-strike. When they first start, they'll be dropping destruction everywhere, but as they develop, they become more and more able to focus the force into it's designated target and purpose only.

Darvan Korematsu Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 Yeah. That and the Porygon Z was conditioned and upgraded to handle electricity better. But the random nature of Porygon itself is why I'm questioning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Support Squad Felicity Posted August 14, 2015 Support Squad Share Posted August 14, 2015 I mean I assumed we'd all be spaced apart to deal with our own opponents sooo, shoot. Aethor doesn't care anyway. And within that post is why I wanted to use a magnet rise Electrode. It is literally a flying cannonball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Support Squad Felicity Posted August 14, 2015 Support Squad Share Posted August 14, 2015 Howmany decks does the ship have? And the deck is made of wood right, that should have been damaged, Riiiight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sutoratosu Posted August 14, 2015 Author Share Posted August 14, 2015 It's only one deck, but it's a very heavily fortified ship, hence why the trio of baddies decided it would be too difficult to damage from the outside. And it's very strong wood by the way... stronger than any of the common species. And there's still reinforcing underneath it. The fact that the camerupt's attack was able to damage it from the raw force, but not Aethor's maneuver of causing it to go face first to the floor of the deck, is supposed to show something.

Support Squad Felicity Posted August 14, 2015 Support Squad Share Posted August 14, 2015 So no chance of breaking the deck beneath the Camerupt to send him into the depths of the ship That's... a ridculously strong boat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darvan Korematsu Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 I see what you did there Stratos. You selected our opponents (minus Johanna and Joey's) based on type advantages. Case and point: A Ground dual --> Electric A Ghost dual --> Psychic A Bug dual --> Dark A Fighting dual --> Normal Also I figured out your beast. Hell, even if you showed me a picture asking what it was, I could never accurately say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nooooo I would never do such an underhanded to my players Hell yes that's exactly how I assembled Exon's Team. But wait, you figured out the beast already? How strange... afterall, it wasn't like I was being SUPER obvious about it's identity with the context clues and the move it starts off using...

Darvan Korematsu Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 It took me a minute and a half to figure it out, considering how cliché it is like in ORAS/XY. It's so akin to why we can't have nice things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hiss13 Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 Yuzuki is at no obvious disadvantage, yet…though given the pattern for the rest of the pairings…the disadvantage will probably show soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Support Squad Felicity Posted August 14, 2015 Support Squad Share Posted August 14, 2015 Nikki is making a dangerous gambit here. Here's hoping the Camerupt is smart enough to be able to over-estimate its foe EDIT: Because like hell am I playing into your hands Stratos >:C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raindrop Valkyrie Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 *coughWaterAbsorbsoJoeycan'ttouchitcough* Can;t touch is a bit overboard... you have Return and Crucnh... both can hit for Neutral ((which is what Waterfall would hit for anyway just with STAB.))

Raindrop Valkyrie Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 Seriously though guys don't go too fast here... I literally can't post today so I really don't want weird "suspension" time to happen where all these battles happen while Johanna sits in temporal space time doing nothing.

That was honestly the last update I'm doing today anyway given most people still haven't gotten something up either. it's only day 1 of the 5 days before chim won;t be able to post till the 23, and it's starting off pretty good, so we have time.

Raindrop Valkyrie Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 Of course lol. Three days of the forums being down were not fun for me and lots of stuffs to catch up on honestly, so yea I really dobut I'll get a post up today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure Stratos has a counter for that. For example he can easily lure Ismael in and burn him with Steam Eruption. Aqua Tail is the only way I can attack from a distance by shooting the water instead of smacking it right into Volcanion's face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'a already a mythic and everything, and while I could do that luring tactic... I won't. That ah...beast is kinda the black sheep of the team. Which will become a bit clearer as you two fight it... and observe and compare it to the reactions of the other pokemon under Exon's command.
