Impact said he got Kurika. The one person you said you thought no one would use due to being "sucky" or something.

Well of course he was going to get Kurika. The only other options he had were Pokebrids or Trainers.

By the way, for future missions, Bard/Dante you have to make sure to take a Slayer Enforcer. If we take all the Slayers then Impact will be screwed!

I can't keep making it as easy as it's always been, Geminex. I'll almost never allow for a one-shot on something that isn't ultra (x4) effective against a wounded target. Fortunately, I intend for it to only get worse, where those crafty li'l techniques y'all're thinkin' up are probably to be absolutely necessary in order to get by, or possibly very ineffective.

If a Pokemon is flinching, you can still switch it out, though the effects won't go away until the third turn is over. But since people like Moon and Rachel cannot switch out, they're stuck.

Dracorian's got PMS? He's gonna be more dangerous than Impact on an ego high.

Hey, I'm writing up Charlotte's legendary right now, can someone give me a link to Enmakki so I can get an idea of how to put it together? I already have the stats, but I think it would help to see one that already exist.

Well... Why not? Just because it's a one-hit?
I'm not saying that Impact should be able to one-hit-kill the engineer because OMG HE IS SO AWESOME AND BADASS EH OHKO'S EVERYTHING
If he had used one normal attack, without much in terms of bonuses, I wouldn't be talking. I'd be in the corner, shutting up.
But see, I had bonuses. I had Stab, weather, boosted stats, super-effective damage... All that adds up.
If two Mewtwos were to fight a Foot Soldier. I don't know why, maybe he insulted their mother. And they each used Psychic 4 times. They would do about as much damage as Impact should have done in that attack.
If you had 4 Electrode. And they all used a focused explosion on the foot soldier. They would do less damage than Impact did in that attack.
If you had 10 Dragonite. And they all used Hyper beam. They would do about as much damage as Impact.
I have no problem with us getting tough enemies, god no! I like a challenge. But if the Engie's defenses and HP are comparable to the rest of the enemies', then said engie should have died or taken critical damage.

But saying that Impact can't one-hit-kill because you don't want to let us one-hit kill?That seems sorta... arbitrary.

It's allright for now, the enemies aren't doing much to hurt us. We can finish them off easily. But where trainers have 4 pokemon in reserve and only two on the field, Impact has only himself. Isn't it reasonable that he'd do as much, or more, damage-per-turn than a trainer?

I found Enmakki on my own, also found this on my escapade. I've chopped it down to mostly PCs.

Here are most of the relevant character sheets.

Slayers
Geminex (Ray Green:Impact)
Armored Bishoujo's NPC (Rayleen)

Trainers
Bard (Charlotte Beaufort: Madame Ursurang)
Menarker (Renny Tresserhorn)
Dracorion (Pierce Granger)

Pokebrids
DanteFalcon (Matthias Sona: Oberon)
Armored Bishoujo's NPC (Rachel McConnelly:Princess)

Impact also has six items, interchangable weapons and armor so he can always have STAB, and even if he doesn't one-shot everything he still does damn good damage.

Bard The 5th LW · 05-29-2010, 09:04 PM

I'm under the general assumption that anything we aren't allowed to one-shot gets knocked down to about 1 hp when hit by someone like Impact. Not sure how much truth is behind that.

Dracorion · 05-29-2010, 09:08 PM

The Engineer took two more hits after Impact hit it.
