[OOC] Pokemon Spiral

[Heckno12]

@OtomostheCrazy As for wild Pokemon, there are the obvious normal types scattered around. There are a few caves down the road (which I should mention is the only way in and out of the town) I wouldn't be opposed to people making up random trainers either, seeing as there's a gym in town plenty would congregate.

[fer1323]

@Heckno12 The only wall for most people is the Furfrou atm. Most of the others are tough but have weaknesses that balance them out but Furfrou has no weaknesses that I can see. Growlithe and Torchic are the pokemon that Oscar has that might be able to deal with Furfrou but barely.

@LuckyBlackCatI am stuck waiting for your response so yeah.

[LuckyBlackCat]

@fer1323 Working on the response right now.

[fer1323]

@LuckyBlackCatGreat. Oscar might have better luck than Sophia but that Furfrou is going to be a menace.

[LuckyBlackCat]

@fer1323 It'd help if we gave our Pokemon held items, like berries. That's one thing Sophia forgot to do.

[fer1323]

@LuckyBlackCatYeah, Oscar does not have held items. I feel that held items would help but stab moves and special vs phsyical moves are what is going to be a difference. My torchic and Growlithe are able to deal with Bunnelby and Doduo with relative ease.

[LuckyBlackCat]

@fer1323 Be careful of Ground-type moves, though. You'd probably find berries helpful, all the gym leader's Pokemon have held items.

[Heckno12]

@fer1323 Yeah, physical attackers are pretty trivial to Furfrou, especially if it gets a cotton guard in. It'd also be good to remember Bunnelby's dig for your fire types.

[fer1323]

@Heckno12It would be a problem but I think it is still counterable.

@LuckyBlackCatWhat held Items do you suggest?

[Heckno12]

@fer1323 Well if you're trying to counter dig, you may want to see if you could possibly find shuca berries.

[fer1323]

@Heckno12That is an option

[Heckno12]

@fer1323 It'd only counter one hit, but that could certainly be enough to get another hit in. Huge Power is a powerful ability for a physical attacker like Bunnelby, so a super-effective attack could easily be a one shot. If you can keep your fire types away you may have a better chance to be honest.

[fer1323]

@Heckno12Yeah, two out of my four are fire types so I have to choose one. If my ralts can deal with the Bunnelby and Doduo, then I might have a chance with Furfrou with torchic and growlithe.

[LuckyBlackCat]

@fer1323 Yeah, Shuca berries would be helpful, as would Sitrus berries or other healing ones.

[OtomostheCrazy]

So...I guess I'll make a post for Deneb as I wait.

[Noxx]

@LuckyBlackCat how you propose we do NPC battles again?

[OtomostheCrazy]

I was just going to have Deneb walk away from a pokemon center with a bunch of random trainers crowding each other to get their pokemon healed. =P

[LuckyBlackCat]

@Noxx There'll be no need for Showdown for random NPC battles (unless you want to, and in that case, Heckno or I could throw together a team). You can just make it up and write it out, like a wild battle.

[OtomostheCrazy]

I can help out playing the part of the NPC as well if you wanna do a Showdown!

[Noxx]

I'd much rather the pokemon showdown option, controlling both sides of the battle just seems too meta lol
