I think there’s a risk that if a rocket wins the investigation the trainer will name a pokemon owned by a town player.
Possibly, honestly, it's one of those things that the GM could try balancing in any number of directions and it would still be fair to everyone.
That's why it's more important to focus on getting a second result than it is on actually figuring out what the first clue means at the moment.

It doesn't really matter who we send in. If we send in a Rocket, they have to win or lose one of their Pokemon. If we send in a Trainer, same deal. The investigation info is publicized. What isn't publicized is what benefits a player receives after winning one. I assume it's just an item and extra coin, same as a player v. player battle. @TheIrishman?
Except it does, you still want your own side to get the benefit of the investigations since that counts as a free nights worth of actions, just from winning the battle alone.

Yep, today's probably the best day to send in @Brigitte for the investigation if they want to go.

I'm willing to investigate route 30, since it's not too far into the game, so hopefully it won't be too difficult but I feel pretty confident regardless though with all the items I have.
Hugh, so far you haven't really given me enough information to form an opinion of your alignment this game, which gives me more reasons to distrust you than anything else at the moment.

Well, I'm completely unprepared for an investigation today, and that's still the best course of action at the moment.

Frankly speaking thought, the mere fact that Category 5 is voluntarily revealing all of this information now is a bigger indication that he would be scum.
Although, things aren't much better for Jeod if he had a level advantage that he hasn't been using to actually help Town, by investigating....

Good to know, the level 30 Jolteon wasn't sent in to fight the Psyduck day two then I guess, or a level 40 Jolteon day three.
And good to know this information is only being brought up now instead of immediately.
How are those gambles working out for you two?

Well, sorry guys. I just got called in to work AGAIN, so I won't be around to battle for about 4-5 hours.
You could probably win in the first turn, so you might prefer to just PM Orange your attack move and see if that'll end the match without any further input.

So then why did Cat5 nominate me? Still waiting for an answer.
To be fair, you already saw the odds for your Jolteon fighting against a Psyduck, so we're talking something like Killing_You having a 3% higher chance of winning.
But that's not the only thing to take into consideration.

But that's something like Sunflora being unable to hit it for 10 rounds in a row, so you get the idea of what the odds are.

While we still have time left until hammer, can we get a calculation breakdown of a Lv30 Jolteon w/ Thunder against a Lv30 Psyduck, vs. a Lv40 Sunflora against a Lv30 Psyduck?
Easily Sunflora, the only reason why it's not guaranteed is Psyduck is faster so it could beat Sunflora with a combination of luck and some extremely cheap tactics based on what moveset it could have.

It only works that way if the user is ghost type. If any other type it just raises both attack and defense stat. As such it's used on Snorlax a lot in competitive.
I was thinking maybe of making an off topic pokemon thread, where we can all talk about SG and other things without cluttering up this thread. Good idea?
I'd assume we'd actually be on topic if there was something to actually be on topic about though.

Quick Sidenote: This move is pure evil. Basically, it does a little bit of damage to the caster, and then the target takes damage every turn for the rest of the match. Combined with Mean Look (which keeps the target from leaving, whether by running or swap out), this can be a real pain in the ass.
I had to comment because a friggin' Ghastly used those two on my Machop once, and I basically had to wait for him to die because I couldn't do anything else. It's gone down as my most hated Pokemon moment ever. Petty? Sure. I don't care, though, I was mad.
Alright, back to the game.
It's a non-damaging stat changing move for non Ghost types though.

Agh... this is quite the conundrum. The only one who's had any active resistance to progressing the game is Shade, and I've already stated why I don't think he's scum. I'm not exactly sure what to look for in these kinds of setups apart from that.
If by progression you mean failing an investigation, and someone losing a pokemon over that...

You know, mainly because why not at this point?

Tis a level 40 Sunflora.
Psyduck has the first move, but just about anything I could expect you to hit it with should one shot it.

I do have a grass-type as my primary. I suppose that could work against a Psyduck.
What's the level difference if you go up against a level 30 Psyduck? A type advantage won't get you very far without the base stats to back it up also.

Nevermind, I'd be 2 HP short of killing it if it's back to full health. And then I'd be OHKO myself. If there is someone who has better odds, great, although I'm not getting a super good read on TheIrishman, and I'd prefer not to send him.
Massacre a Psyduck you say?

Yeah, he probably had multiple things happen to him Night 1 and mis-attributed the egg to me. My visit should have given him a different effect. I gave him a bonus that should have helped him make up for his loss on Night 1, or at least put him in better position than he would have been otherwise.
Despite the fact he was probably only trying to rush Route 34 because he would help himself out by likely getting some benefit from the Pokemon Daycare there, before anyone else could clear it...
It also makes more sense why he thinks I'm scum and was panicking just because I actually thought certain players might get bonuses for visiting different investigation locations, so it's also important who completes an investigation instead of it just being completed.

Or that Jeod was claiming you gave it to him at least.
0 -
And yes, that is directed at you Category 5. That's the quote suggesting why I thought you might have given it to him.

Well, if it was an egg, you should have had a much more clear reaction to it considering my interactions with Category 5 on Day 2 and Day 3. The soft communication was pretty easy to see for anyone who understood the references.
Good to know, it made more sense if Jeod had an egg in his inventory from game start all things considered, he's a bit obsessed with route 34 after all...

Huh, I thought the damage formula stayed the same throughout the games.
Yeah, it was a mismatch of stats, based on a pokemon being level 1, while it's actual stats were based on it's effort values earned.
So a Chansey would have the following stats.
250 Hit Points
5 Attack
5 Defense
105 Special
50 Speed0 -
Yeah, for example, if this was Pokemafia 1 then your Houndoom using Crunch on Psyduck would have only done 11 damage, and Psyduck would have 50 HP in total.

Because I was planning on fighting in a double battle today, since that's a bit overdue, and I don't really care to win a Double Battle given the odds of helping Rocket or hurting Town.
