Pokémon Umbral ~ Ruinous Origins Discussion 2

[Arcanum]

As much as the coward tactic would work to save our pokemon, we the trainers will still be exposed and judging by what happened to the leader of the EEE, them ruin types have no problem attacking trainers. Also Mike has Heatran out right now, not Charizard.

Oh and AB, Magma Storm's description says that it traps a pokemon in pillars of fire. I dunno exactly how that would work in the games (my extent of poke-knowledge is Red/Blue/Yellow, a little Silver, and Fire Red) but how would it work in the RP context? Would it render it's target unable to attack, or would it lock them into only attacking Heatran, or would it just deal continuous damage over a few rounds?

Actually, AB said that Darcen was killed unawares without any pokemon out, so they probably can't attack trainers as long as we have pokemon.

It would prevent them from switching out/running away if I recall correctly. It's like a temporary version of Mean Look.

But yeah, AB also said that those in the vault were in danger of being attacked. (Although the bank manager has so far been unmolested.)

But yeah, 1 Omnisroth, 4 Pulverots and 3 Narchams...

QUESTION! Is Syncstrike being all of them combining their attack into one massive one or all of them spamming the attack for multiple attacks? If it's the former, then I can just send Togekiss since it has Substitute as a sort of armor that blocks any one attack that hits once. If it's the latter or multi-hit like Fury Swipes then I gotta think harder...
