Games [GAME OVER] PokeMafia Generation I

[Category5]

Move 4

[Killing_You]

Huh. Neat.

Disable on Snorlax!

[TheIrishman]

Too bad Disable won't work because I was paralyzed >.> So there's no previous move.

[TheIrishman]

Even though Magnemite should be dead this turn, (2.4 x 70 x 110 / 50 / 70 + 2) x 2 x 2/3 = 9.70. I don't remember if we round up or down, but at least 9 dmg, so Magnemite is at 16 HP.

Seems like it only effects executed moves, which Seismic Toss was not executed due to Paralysis.

Exactly 😄

[Killing_You]

Damn it, I skipped over that detail 😕 Too late to change, I suppose

[Retaliation]

Eh, Jeod might be lenient on that one. In any case I'm not going to do another tonight.

Jeod hasn't allowed changes to orders in previous battles. I am, however, curious how he wants to resolve the effects of Reflect, as he may not include the double battle provision of it being 1/3 instead of 1/2 damage reduction.

I'm a little biased on disable, because that move trips me up way too much.

This is where I found out that they wouldn't be reduced. What did you find, Shade?

And I'd imagine he'd go with the 1/3rd dmg since he's basing his Double Battles rules off Gen 3 since there weren't any Double Battles in Gen 1 or 2.

[OrangeP47]

Well to be fair too, in gen 1 Disable just picked a random move to disable rather than last move used, so we have a change there as well.

In this case, it's just the gen 3 version.

[Shade939]

Which we're using for most of the moves in games, with the odd exceptions...

Well, I'm pretty sure what my gameplan will be from here, so I'll set to building a set of rules for an autobattle.

Jeod didn't let me do that when I asked, though...

Actually it's the Gen 5 version. It only at 55% accuracy in Gen 1, 80% accuracy in Gen 4, and 100% accuracy in Gen 5, granted the duration's been shortened.

[OrangeP47]

That said, I should go to bed too, so I'll check back in on this in the morning.

[TheIrishman]

55% accuracy until Gen 4 might've been a better way to put it.

Same, honestly. If the battle continues while I'm asleep, continuous Psychic on Snorlax. Hopefully won't be necessary, though.

Hmmgh, actually, considering how many moves are at something like 110 power, it seems like we are using something like Gen 5 - 7 version for them instead.

I don't understand why he didn't. He followed my two-step orders for the Dragonair/Pikachu battle.

The orders I just sent him include 13 different rules, so he might not go for that one. That said, if he doesn't want to do it, then the battle can wait.

[Jeod]

I was hoping to see you do the rest, Retaliation!  Not bad for your first time. I’ll do the autobattle rules Cat5 sent. As for Reflect, refer to the last battle—damage was halved. I’m not using a specific gen’s rules here.

Disable does what it says: disables the move used on the previous turn. No move used, disable fails.

[Category5]

Just to be clear, the point of contention was if Reflect also halves damage when used during a Double Battle, as apparently it didn't do that in the games that feature Double Battles. We already knew it did so in a 1v1.

Ah, well in that case it does 1/3, correct. I suspect the reason they made it that way in doubles is for balance.

[Jeod]

The battle so far:

TURN 1:
Alakazam used Reflect!
Damage taken by team from opponent's physical attacks is halved for 5 turns!
Scyther used Slash on Magnemite!
A critical hit!
Magnemite took 8 DMG (17 HP left)! **Reflect halves by 1/3**
Magnemite used Thunder Wave on Snorlax!
Snorlax is Paralyzed! It may be unable to move!
Snorlax is paralyzed! It can't move!

TURN 2:
Alakazam used Disable on Snorlax!
But it failed!
Scyther used Double Team! Foe's accuracy was lowered by 25%!
Magnemite used Thunder Wave!
Scyther is paralyzed! It may be unable to move!
Snorlax used Seismic Toss on Magnemite!
Magnemite took 27 DMG (0 HP left)! **Seismic Toss ignores moves like Reflect**
Magnemite fainted!

[OrangeP47]

Since Shade seemed eager to help me as scum, I guess it's only fair to repay that.

X-Defense, Alakazam!

[TheIrishman]

Yeah, but his items didn't actually help you.

It's the thought that counts?
