Recently: You had a chat with Robert and you're less than enemies you think maybe. Vernon helped you with critical hit mitigation training. You've learned there's a more advanced type of mega-evolution. You just started your battle with Geno, the last Elite Four member.

General rules:

There is a 10 minute voting period after each post. Non-contradictory votes will be combined as best as possible.

Write-ins for all votes are always welcome and encouraged. They may not all make it into the post or be altered to fit in, but I'll do my best to at least try to address the spirit of the write-in.

Very important or contentious votes may be redone in a stricter voting system as it comes up.

Combat involves rolls! Once there's a clear vote winner, we roll for the move accuracy/crit/secondary effect. Usually it's just three 1d100s. Sometimes you can get a modifier from circumstances, so be creative! Add flair, do tricks with moves, mess with terrain, whatever! This is not a video game.

Call me out on a mistake and receive an apology butt or suggestive picture.

Meloetta just transformed back into her regular form. You were able to calm her nerves a little, but not fully.

The crowd cheers as you take your spot to fight Geno, the last member of the Elite Four. The announcers play things up, doing a short bio on you both.

Geno is an industry leader at Prosapia Corp, a dragon master, and a certified genius. He rose to the top of the Elite Four at a young age, and holds the regional record for most recorded one-shot moves in league matches.

You know a bit more. He used to run Team Imperium in an attempt to minimize the total amount of crime in the region. He changed his mind about the approach and has been spending time trying to dismantle and fight it instead.

They do a short bio on you as well. The orphan from a small town that rose up from nothing. A badass with a heart of gold. The background music on your bio has a slightly evil sounding guitar. They do a lot of comparisons between you and Robin, framing her as an innocent sweetheart. It’s all technically accurate stuff and of course a lot of what you've been up top, good and bad, isn't public knowledge, but they’re clearly going for a theme. Nothing slanderous or mean, just mild bad-girl stuff.

Geno’s predator eyes narrow on you. He’s sizing you up. Aria takes a fighting pose, but you can see a nervous twitch.

“And let. The games. Begin!”

Geno reaches for his first Pokeball like a quick-draw cowboy. Who will you send out first?

“Go, Ancalagon!” He throws out his Garchomp. You note it’s ability, Rough Skin.

You look down to Aria. “You’ve got this. You’re the best.”

She nods, emboldened by your confidence in her, and she takes the stage. There’s no fancy twirls are showmanship, just a careful, cautious fighting stance. It’s not as tight as when she’s in her fighting form, but that’s fine. This form favors special attacks.

The battlefield is balanced. There’s a few small gatherings of trees and bushes, three small watered areas, and two rocky sections on each side. He’s likely to get physical. You can probably dictate where to fight.

He's probably gonna try to rush us down if he's using Garchomp, so.

Hey guys, I won't be standing around for long, but for the love of everything, save Dan for Altaria. It's most definitely his mega, since the rest of his possible megas are threatening as hell without evolving. Besides, M-Altaria is pretty fucking scary and also one of my favourites and fairies fuck our team up really badly.

You send Aria over the water. She doesn’t have the ability Levitate, but she can keep herself from being slowed on it.

Garchomp fires over it like a bullet, slashing at her with Aerial Ace. It’s a precise and deadly hit, but Aria takes it well. She skids over the water before righting herself. Her toes trail along the surface.

Geno narrows his eyes. That should have been a critical hit. It hurt, a lot, but Aria should be doubled over, not singing. With Aerial Ace, you guess he thought you’d switch forms to fighting. He looks like he's assessing this new dynamic and figuring out how to handle it.

Their speed seems relatively even over the water. Looks like whoever acts fastest depends on a little luck.

Aria’s singing gets to Garchomp as it comes to a stop at the water’s edge. He turns around, ready to kick off and go at her again, but he slows. He’s falling asleep.

But he’s struggling. You guess Geno isn't at the top for nothing. He pushes and slaps his own face, but he can’t hold it. His eyes close. Who knows how long that will last, though.

Aria fights the urge to bounce in giddiness. She was sure she was going down. Her hand holds her gut where she was hit.

“That Meloetta is tougher than it looks!”

“Indeed, Chip. Geno’s Pokemon are famed for their hard hitting, precise attacks. It looks like Garchomp landed a solid blow, but not one that could penetrate her defences.”

“Status Queen! Status Queen!”

Aria rocks back and forth slightly to the rhythm of the chant. You thrust out your finger and give her her next order. “Teeter Dance!”

Aria performs a twirling, spinning dance. She moves like the most graceful drunk. You try not to look too closely.

“Crunch!”

Garchomp, with eyes closed, snaps his jaws a bit at the air around him. He goes back to snoozing right after.

Geno keeps his eyes on the situation, but shows nothing on his face.

Been there the last two days, it's been pretty solid, sure some trash /b/ tier quest are there, but there are other good ones without trolls.

>>47029651
Considering how all the quests I'm currently following on this board still get plenty of voters, you are completely and factually wrong.

Just for the record, echoed voice is kind of pointless.

It takes two uses to get to hyper voice level, with our training to make her sound based moves better, just spamming hypervoice is better.

sorry for replying to bait and shitting up your thread gobble.

You're fairly shortsighted in wanting to remove the quests from /tg/ other then it being appropriately themed and arguably more on topic then a lot of threads on /tg/ the main problem is that /tg/ is simply too small to exist as a board (at least in my opinion) without them. Think about it how many discussions can you have about action figures and cards and screencaps and such at once?

Ultimately it would lead I think to such slow moving action that the the posters would dwindle to a laughable number and the boards continued existence would no longer even be viable.

I'll shut up now
>>
>>47030342
They're actually more distantly related than wolves and coyotes, which can have viable offspring in the wild.

>>47030375
A crocodile's snout is much narrower and has visible teeth. An alligator's snout is much more U shaped and rarely has visible teeth.
>>
>>47030410
Then you got far worse problems than exact classification of nearby predators.
>>
>>47030424
Caimans are weird, they can have alligator shaped snouts and croc shaped snouts, but they're more closely related to alligators.

“Fury Cutter! She’s staying in Psychic form!”

“Aria! Dazzling Gleam!”

Aria floats in close, apparently looking to land the best possible blow.

Despite still sleeping, Ancalagon slashes out five times. Aria casually leans back and forth while his attacks miss by miles.

She closes her eyes.

You see a blinding flash of pink, and hear the crash after your eyes adjust. Garchomp goes sailing back to the rocky area by you, crashing into a large boulder. He falls onto his face.

There’s a few second pause before the flag goes up. “Ancalagon is unable to battle.”

Geno breathes in, then out. Not in frustration, though. He grins while staring down the field. He retrieves his Pokemon and sends out his Noivern.

“Nobody can match Desghidorah when it comes to sound based attacks!” Geno runs his hand through his hair then points dramatically. “This will be no contest!”

The announcers chime in. “That’s no idle talk. Geno’s Noivern boasts some of the best lungs this announcer can think of.”

“Indeed, Chip. Strong enough to knock itself out with an echo.”

You smile as you think back to Robin’s match.

Not whoever you disagree with but /tg/ survived with little to no quests for most of its life and will after. There have been lots of points where there have been no active quests at all on this board since /qst/ was made and it simply ran like how it did to before they came around

“Counter her sound out! Boomburst!”

“Aria! Get to the bush and and use Thunder Wave!”

She gets to the brush in time. Bushes are blown away and trees have their leaves mostly removed. You hold your own ears at hearing it. It’s intense! The leaves blow onto one of the ponds, forming a blanket over the top that can obscure anything under it.

Yopu hold your breath, waiting to see if Aria is still up.

A narrow yellow band of electricity fires from a bush, hitting Noivern. She emerges looking just awful. You wonder if she would have been able to take that without the bush.

“Good job, Aria!”

She doesn’t react.

“GOOD JOB, ARIA!”

She heard that. She weakly offer’s a thumbs up.

“Clever, Kat. Very clever. I thought you’d use sing or a sound attack again. You were wise not to directly try that against us.”

No matter what though we should switch her out at the next prompt though I feel. Who would be best for going against Geno's remaining pokemon? Is it time to bring out the hidden weapon Fel?
>>
>>47031269
Zappy Dan is good against everything except Flygon, Fel is weaker but can be super annoying. Everyone else is double edged blade due to being part dragon.

Well Paralysis makes you super fucking slow.

>>47031550
He HAD the speed advantage, now even if he doesn't get full-para'd he's still going to be way slower than Aria.
>>
>>47031375
u rollin the d4 for paralysis?
>>
>>47031623
I think it just gets factored into the regular roll, where 50 or under means full paralysis. I could be wrong though.
>>
>>47031550
Paralysis reduces to 25% of what it was, aria should get the confusion off.

Then Noivern has to beat the 1d4 for paralysis and the 1d2 for confusion.

Means there's roughly a 75% chance Noivern isn't doin shit this turn.
>>
>>47031692
Too bad he rolled a 78 then!
>>
>>47031692
Which then rolled a 78
>>
>>47031686
Well there's still the 50% chance of it being stuck in confusion.

Which I am gonna assume gobble is rolling for behind the scenes. Because there's no way in hell Noivern is attacking before us. Unless is has an increased priority move, which still might not kill aria.
>>
“Teeter Dance!”

“We can’t let her continue. Taunt!”

Aria performs an amazing, drunken dance, twirling and spinning, shifting her weight all over in sudden, smooth swings. She really likes doing this move. She twirls into the next brush after.

But when she’s done, Des...Desghettit-dory. Darghidardar... Noivern, taunts her. You’re not sure what he said in Pokemon-speak, but she’s fuming. She’ll have to use damaging attacks until she gets over it.

Well, that’s probably a smart move against you.

He locks eyes with you from across the arena. It’s an intimidating stare. There’s no malice or anything in it, just the eyes of an animal waiting for you to run before pouncing.

So confusion didn't work, paralysis might have worked, either way we get our attack off and do lots of damage but probably don't kill it.

He probably knocks us out this turn though, unless he was using a very low accuracy move.

Ehh. While we probably can't take another Boomburst any other move and we'll survive.

Good news is that if it is paralyzed this turn it means that the confusion doesn't have a chance to go away.

“Boomburst!”

His Noivern takes a second to react. That second is all you need.

“Dazzling Gleam!”

Aria spins into position and you see another shining, brilliant pink flash. It hits Noivern straight in the gut. You have a feeling that it was just barely outside of what you needed to get around it’s defences. It hurts, a lot, but Noivern doesn't go down. It fights against it’s confusion and paralysis. You suspect that a Pokemon that wasn’t trained by Geno wouldn't be able to fight both after such a blow and strike back, but Noivern does.

Noivern opens its mouth and flattens Aria down from above. Her face goes into the dirt hard. But thanks to all the factors working against it. She’s not instantly out.

But Aria pushes herself up. She blinks heavily, dazed. She’s pushing herself beyond what’s healthy. You can read on her face that she’s determined not to let her performance be less than amazing here. She can take any regular hit and just be knocked out, you suspect, but a critical here might be really bad.

It’s still confused.

Inb4 he pulls a Hellborn and says he needs to rethink some things and ends the thread.
>>
>>47033063
I would understand that if we rolled bad and HE got a crit, but we got a fail while he is still paralyzed.
>>
>>47033075
fuck I fell behind on hellborn what happened?
>>
>>47033077
I still don't think he did. Like I feel like with status effects rolling low is better, since when Noivern rolled a 22 he wasn't paralyzed.
>>
>>47033101
He rolled a 3. A 22 is very close, but a 3 is a fucking 3.
>>
>>47033097
Last thread everything went off the rails and Languid peaced out.
>>
>>47033127
How off the rails we talking?
>>
>>47033063
you honestly expected the dice not to fuck us?

Honestly it was a "what could possibly go wrong" kind of situation you thought the dice gods would not fuck us?
>>
>>47033101
Gobble has always been roll high=good
the reason 22 wasn't enough to stop is because normally paralyzed only has a 25% chance of stopping it
Geno being a top class trainer probably has a bit less than that for his pokemon maybe 20% or even 15%
>>
>>47033124
No I mean I feel like that might mean he REALLY shook off the paralysis, like instead of it being Noivern rolling to resist being parlyzed, it was Gobble rolling on how effective the paralysis was.
>>
>>47033101
Paralysis is 25% chance and gobble said it has training against it and it rolled a 22.

Even if that were true then it would be confused.
>>
>>47033141
No, I voted for "Done". And honestly so did most of the players, until a sudden burst of Dazzling Gleam voters came in at the last second. And then the final destination vote was poorly worded.
>>
>>47033154
u r dum
>>
>>47033140
rolled a hundred at a diplomatic moment surrounded by hundreds of demons. rolling high is bad. What was supposed to be a duel will now be either a massacre of truly epic levels or a curbstomp on poor Sierra's head. Kinda sad to because the last 5-10 threads were almost purely prep for that exact moment.
>>
>>47033173
u r salty
>>
>>47033173
The vote was close and no vote was the same, same fagging for both sides was likely.
>>
>>47033173
I did too, and honestly I hope it does not turn out as horrible as I am imagining. But when it comes down to it, it is in gobbles hands and all we can do is wait to see.
>>
>>47033182
I'm scared because we rolled a 1 on a really fucking dangerous vote, something that could result in our pokemon being killed.

>>47033193
I'm terrified.
>>
>>47033210
Everyone is scared, but lets be realistic. We rolled a 1 with 2 other high votes. The guy is very likely paralyzed. Gobble also isn't a dickhole QM.
>>
>>47033226
But I don't think those higher rolls matter at all.
>>
>>47033226
you knew the risks, gobble would be justified in fucking us or not fucking us. We just have to wait and see, hopefully soon; waiting is the worst part.
>>
>>47033250
We could atleast pray for pity since we did get 2 crits and a crit fail. That has to count for something in a situation like this.
>>
>>47033259
Yeah that's what I hate, that anons fucking brought it on themselves.
>>
>>47033250
They do because they too were crits.
>>
>>47033259
This is why I hate crit systems, it just shits on all momentum.
>>
>>47033250
>>47033226
How many time do we have to say it. Crits cancel. It's why we increased our critrange.
>>
>>47033274
It was a random fucking dice roll, calm yourself man.
>>
>>47033278
3d10 system best system
>>
>>47033292
I can't, just because of how bad this could be for us.

Like I don't know why people keep making this mistake, since it's not like Kat herself would ever choose pride over safety.

Aria has something to prove. She’s not just some complacent pokemon that happened to be born strong. She’s earned her place with as much sweat and effort as anyone else on the team. She’s not going to screw this up with whatever weakness she has. She keeps herself steady and prepares to attack. You nod and point to her opponent. “Alright! Let’s do this! Dazzling Gleam!”

“Boomburst! Summon your strength and push past this! You are a dragon!” Noivern shakes it’s head, finally getting over it’s confusion. As it inhales though, it has a small spasm and isn’t able to attack.

Aria unleashes pink hell all over the sky. Devastating flashes shoot out. She’s giving it her all, screaming from the effort. You’re amazed at the brightness and power of the lightshow. Noivern tries to dodge, but due to the blinding flashes and paralysis, it flies into one of the beams and tailspins down.

You sigh in relief. She does too, but then she freezes. She tries to sing or say anything, but nothing comes out. Her small hands grasp at her chest and throat and she looks back at you in confusion. She through out her voice. Hard. There’s a heartbreaking look of panic on her face before she passes out.

That sort of thing isn’t permanent, right? You have nothing to worry about. She probably just won’t be singing for awhile, right? You think you remember reading something about people permanently damaging vocal chords, though. But you've known people that have done it and be fine?

You shake your head. You can’t let that get to you. You didn't do anything wrong, and nothing permanent happened.

Right?

OH SHIT.
>>
>>47033569
......It wasn't even a singing attack
>>
>>47033569
Damnit Gobble, why did you do the worst thing?

Now I can't focus on the fight at all. Because it is permanent and it's all our fault.
>>
>>47033569
Okay, she lost her voice. Nothing pokescience can't fix.

Shit I was worried for a second.
>>
>>47033569
you sick fuck

not even letting us know if we fucked up or not
>>
>>47033589
So what if lasers don't use her voice, and she only in fact used one sound-based attack. We rolled a 1 when we were told the situation was dangerous, so we deserve all the suffering.

Why didn't you guys back down? Why do you guys keep risking our pokemon like this?

>>
>>47033589
Did you not read the part where she was screaming during the attack itself?
>>
>>47033569

So, Aria is unavailable for the remainder of the tournament... Though she definitely gets doting later.
>>
>>47033569
“Y-you did good, Aria.” You retrieve her. You fight every instinct to run her down to the Pokemon center. Calm down. Nothing bad can happen now that she’s in her Pokeball. If you panicked and lost here, she’d hate herself.

That small scar on Devon’s leg flashes in your mind. Do you let them continue for their pride’s sake, or your own?

You take a deep breath. You hate doing this, but you push your worry down. Not knowing makes it so much worse. She didn't even use a sound attack, she just shouted at the effort. You're just psyching yourself out. Relax.

You reach for your next Pokemon. Geno reaches for his. You weren't even paying attention to what happened with Noivern but you guess it’s out.

But you fucking idiots don't do calculated risk.

Like if one of our pokemon can get REALLY hurt, as in permanently, if there's even a one percent chance of that, then that means we shouldn't fucking do it. Nothing here is worth more than our pokemon, especially not their pride.

nope Gobble has always been really good at telling us when our choice has an possibility for permanent damage, with one exception which was why he started doing it I think.
>>
>>47033359
Hey gobble, can we train our Pokemon to avoid crit fails or at least mitigate the damage a crit fail would do?

"well well well, maybe a certain someone should have just stayed at that orphana- *insert fist to face noise*"
>>
>>47033622
because the odds of this happening where miniscule. We have maybe 3 or 4 more serious fights before the end game, so a 3% chance of something bad happening isn't terrible.

we just got really unlucky.
>>
>Magnezone

Damn, daniel
>>
>>47033916
But the way I see it, normally there's a 0% chance of this happening to our pokemon. If there's even a 1% chance of them suffering ACTUAL damage, even if the championship is on the line, then we fucking back down because we shouldn't fucking gamble on our pokemon's health, regardless of their feelings on the matter. Like the fact that so many people insisted on continuing, just to take down one more pokemon is just baffling to me. You should always act like the dice gods are alive and eager to punish hubris.
>>
>>47033985
Like I don't know, to me this is a really basic thing if you actually want to put your money where your mouth is when it comes to how much Kat values her pokemon.
>>
You consider your options and try not to show that you’re shaken. You wonder if being in this sort of frame of mind will hurt your ability to mega evolve. You wonder if Aria is okay.

“Don’t worry. She won’t hate you. She’ll blame herself.”

You glance over to Dark Kat. “Shut. Up. You can’t deal with that right now.“Destiny! Come on out!”

Destiny is a safe choice. She’s reliable, has no major weaknesses, and she can dodge.

She bubbles happily. You look across the arena to see Geno’s choice. The Dragonite. “Saphira. Show them the fruits of your training!” His voice isn’t as booming as Roberts, but he has this fierce, authoritative quality that carries well. Even when he shouts, he sounds completely in control.

It’s a nice, respectable hit. Multiscale really helps take the edge off, but you know that he felt it.

Saphire...Sulfer...Saphaphafrisan...Dragonite uses Thunder Wave, but Destiny dodges it with a graceful twirl. The yellow band slaps the ground near the pond harmlessly and she lands in the pond.

“Keeping with it’s reputation, Kat’s Kingdra, Destiny, pulled an amazing dodge.”

“And what grace, Chip. Just like her Meloetta, she’s a bit of a dancer.”

“An unusual move from Geno. Perhaps he’s changing things up to keep the Status Queen on her feet.”

You remember him using Dragon Dance with Saphira against Robin. Maybe he’s looking for a chance to do that against you by paralysing Destiny.

You feel like you've gotten just an inch of your groove back, witnessing that. You smile as Destiny bubbles happily. Still, if anything happened to Aria, you don’t know what you’ll do.

Dark Kat appears at your side again. “You’ll-”

“No!” You dismiss her. Not in the middle of a match.

What if we pushed too far in the temple, and quested as Robin for a while, and Kat was the one waking up in a hospital bed? What if we got soft on our marks much later on? What if Violet never left Rob? I'm sidetracked now...

I'm going to have to remember my phone tomorrow.
