Get creative boys. Personally I'd crunch the bugger and try to throw it into the ocean... just cause it's a water type doesn't mean it does well in cold ocean waters...

Yay...but also you guys so it defeats the purpose XD

and theres alot more folks like them where these three came from. sacrificing yourselves to defeat them would... honestly be just a waste of life when one considers the small amount of overall impact it would leave...

Also want to just say: Field Effects is an actual thing here. and it's more extensive than just moves like electric terrain or whatever (Think of like with Reborn's field effects. that's how much raw variety is possible)...

like this big ass ring of fire encircling you guys right now... but oh, I'll just demonstrate tommorow when I'm hashing out Felix's section of the update...((Lols, like that shit is just ordinary fire...oh please, it was able to part before and close behind a man as he approached for heaven's sake XD))

Y'know mate? I'm really fucking stupid because it blew over my head that Porygon-Z can't get Trace. It gets Adaptability. It's because I know Porygon2 has Trace. So that whole Blaziken part can't be justified unless either Abilities are less relevant, or Download or Analytic can in some way in hell justify what is happening between that Porygon and Blaziken.

Huh... well damn, I'm stupid too in that case for not catching it in the sign up... ((SEriously, how the hell did i miss that for SO damn long?))

Well, that's a no on the download/ analytic thing because download only affects the offensive stats to take advantage of whether the foe has a lower defense or special defense, so yeah...

guess you uh... you should get editing then.

EDIT: *Now feels the need to check everyone's sign ups to ensure similar screw ups haven't occurred...*

I'd also note in your last post that part of your reasoning for taking the Discharge so well was that the Mirror Coat(? I didn't click the link) Discharge wasn't as strong as the original when it says in strats post that it attacked with as much strength and skill as the original. So yeah.

jesus so many mistakes... why am I missing these? and it was Mirror Move.

Very similar in look and execution to mirror coat (hence the understandable confusion and my reason for including the link in the first place), but different in that it just reflects the attack back without any amplification, unlike mirror coat. (Both moves also have a cooldown period and heightened failure rate like protect here, but that's besides the point...)

but yeah, he's right about that too.

...Jesus Christ I swear. I caught the Mirror Coat part Dobby is talking about. I knew it was Mirror Move, because how da fuq can Blaziken learn Mirror Coat?

I didn't even notice until I decided to look up the BW tier status of Porygon-Z earlier today and wallah.

I mean, concerning the Porygon "taking the Discharge well", that's more of an exposition part like where Stratos said the RP won't always follow game logic. And the "copy is never as grand as the original" is more exposition. The Porygon, like some of the other Pokemon was conditioned to take electricity better (because of past experience).

Yeeeup gonna get to editing. Probably gonna turn the first blow into a lucky miss, because Blaziken is outsped by Z until 1 Speed Boost. And so it begins.

EDIT: Actually based on the writing, there was much less editing than I originally thought. Also Strat, feel free to change Pory's ability to Analytic.

yeah yeah...

well, seeing as everyone has at least gotten something up to get them into the fight now, I might be able to chuck out one more update for today...

and I just love how he keeps trying to nail this hell chicken with lightning...gotta have coverage against water types, afterall...

Oh my god... soooooooo much fire...

I think I enjoyed writing that Homicidal Camerupt a bit too much... that thing is just begging for a rematch at some point... It's easy enough to defeat the thing when it has to fight relying solely on it's own judgement...

but when it has it's master is backing it up with orders and insight...

And Hell Chicken is more of just a slight term of endearment rather than an insult. Cause i'm 90% certain the first starter I ever had was Blaziken... the name Hell Chicken came years later after I saw it on the web.

EDIT: No, infact, this thing definitely deserves a rematch at some point later in time. It's relatively easy to take advantage of a lone pokemon's confusion/ surprise when there's no trainer to give it direction in battle...

only question is, who...

oh wait, I already knows...

Man 2 things I gotta say. One, don't you pull that more moves bullshit on the Blaziken, unless you're willing to give some good justification why. I already got the moveset mapped out, and I gotta say that's prolly the worst Blaziken I've ever seen.

Also two, not sure what you're planning with that bitch-ass thing if it's gonna hide like that. Maybe it's because I didn't realize the boat is practically on fire right now.

1: That ain't bullshit as you call it. All the moves of these mons were plotted out in advance before the attack on the site occurred and shit went down. I mean, if you want an uber moveset, I can go and create one just for you.

2. I'm trying to give you the opportunity to bring that thing down like you've been trying to do. given how it and it's allies have behaved, it;s pretty obvious that none of them are just going to up and run from the fight like a pansy. It's preparing to strike from where it's least expected.

But while it's trying to be slick and take you by surprise, this is the perfect oppurtinity to set up a trap with discharge. It would be simple enough to just charge it up subtly now, take a step back, and unleash it right in it's face when it attempts to reappear and attack. And it can't do jack shit to prevent it or counter if it's preoccupied and not expecting a counter like that.

The reason your two previous attacks failed my friend, was not because I'm being bullshit, here, it's because they were predictable to your opponent. it reacted the first time by sending it back, and when you used it again, it was even easier for the thing to react. Spamming the same attack without any variety or change in technique or how one uses it, isn't always going to be the answer. in fact, it will probably never be the answer.

I'm not pulling bullshit here, my friend, I'm trying to get you to consider the alternate paths a bit more and adapt.

Definitely some good points you raised friend. It's just....weird movesets are really bleh to me.

again, bear in mind that less than ideal moves competitively can be fantastic in an RP. look at Aethor, Magnet rise on something as frail as Electrode? It'd get one turn before being destroyed by another move. Here it pretty much grants him more speed and manoeuvrability than anything short of a flying type.

Yeah like dobby said pretty much.

certain moves that may be more useful in IRL competitive outlets, might be out-shined by the versatility of certain moves that are less well loved for it. This is an RP setting, so what one can actually do with the move through just some creativity is pretty well expanded on.

Like Vacuum Wave for example. Pure shit in comp, but in an RP setting, I pretty much figured out an application for it that rendered one of my OC's scyther with a pretty damn good defense against fire moves. (Even though I technically only got to use it that way once and it was really freaking vague on my part... all the other times were pretty much hand-waved as off screen)

And similiar things can be said for hidden power and the like. Just a bit of appropriate creativity can turn alot of things far more useful than they at first appear to be. Like the Blaziken using HP Electric to sheild against discharge? Well HP Electric has...other applications. If one can cloak their body in an electric field through one possible use of it, and then strike the opponent with a move... yeah... that's why Mr.Hell Chicken has it. can provide both ranged and close quarters coverage to water depending on what's needed.

So yeah... certain characters are going to run some strange sets.
