Jeod Posted March 1, 2019 Report Share Posted March 1, 2019 It's odd that we haven't had any double battles yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want in on the fighting so we can progress this damn game Sunflower was apparently having some IRL conflicts that kept her from being active, which is why KY replaced her. Give him some time to catch up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have to reread the battles, but other than that I've got kind of the gist of it. Brigitte's still my only real solid read. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killing_You Posted March 1, 2019 Report Share Posted March 1, 2019 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. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrangeP47 Posted March 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2019 On double battles: They're somewhat more rare to allow for investigations, but I have a formula I follow where each progressing day is more likely to be a double battle than the day before (until such time as a double battle happens). I won't reveal exactly what the formula is, but I will say RNG has been extremely in favor of single battle days so far. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrangeP47 Posted March 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2019 And also, there is a point where a double battle becomes 100% chance on a given day, so they will happen eventually, even if RNG has been deciding otherwise. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeod Posted March 1, 2019 Report Share Posted March 1, 2019 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? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrangeP47 Posted March 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2019 Just a heads up btw, but I probably won't be around for hammer today. However, the normal time still applies. I'll be back fairly shortly after hammer, and I'll check the timestamps of any votes that appear to be close to the line. You can expect a delay of around 30 minutes to an hour. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shade939 Posted March 1, 2019 Report Share Posted March 1, 2019 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. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killing_You Posted March 1, 2019 Report Share Posted March 1, 2019 Well, sorry guys. I just got called in to work AGAIN, so I won't be around to battle for about 4-5 hours. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's fine, and technically faster than Irish's schedule he always harps about It gives me time to complete this season on Football Manager, and boy is it a good one.

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. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also reminder that I myself will be somewhat late.... because I'm going to pick up Fried Chicken But yes, this is also an option. I can just resolve it when I get to it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
