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.

Gobble butts!
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 scaryand also one of my favouritesand fairies fuck our team up really badly.

Yeesh, this is going to be a rough one.
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.

>>47029448
>Nah /qst/ a shit so we run here.
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.
>>47029651
Hasn't every major /tg/ QM that's used /qst/ reported a large drop in player participation?
>>47029651
Honestly after last night id rather quest on /tg/. Apparently /qst/ makes QMs go full fucking retard.
>>47029751
I said replies not voters
>>47029766
Just skimming through them all the ones on /tg/ are mostly 0-100 or 100-200 replies and the ones on /qst/ are usually several hundred
>>47029826
Replying to bait buuut /qst/ has a much higher reply limit.
>>47029766
Except for Soma and Planefag. After last night, planefag will probably stay there out of spite, because he's an ass like that.

>Want to throw us into the jew-oven with fucking /b/ risk threads.

>>47030342
Yeah but they look the exact same to me. How do you even tell them apart?
>>47030375
Where you are.
>>47030375
Gators have a round nose, crocs have a pointed nose.
>>47030375
There is something with how the teeth overlap I think. Zoology was a long time ago.
>>47030375
The jaw and snout is different, also they tend to live in different areas. But I'm from Florida and Alligators just show up in my back yard so I may just have experiance
>>47030375
Crocodile's teeth are all visible when their mouths are shut. Alligator's are not. Also snout shapes, I think.
>>47030380
What if I dont know where I am?
>>47030395
Also Caimans have needle noses
>>47030295
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.

>/tg/ is simply too small to exist as a board (at least in my opinion) without them
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
>>47030451
The only place alligator and crocodile habitats overlap anyway is in the everglades.
The two don't share habitat most of the time, and alligators are only in north america and china.

After its paralyzed, it would be great if we could do something with echoed voice and the echo rocks and just flatten the entire stadium with sound waves.
>>47030641
But that would kill everyone!
>>47030559
I only know of two qms that went on hiatus because of /qst/.
>>47030611
Planefag is the cancer, though. Plus all of /qst/'s "features" being annoying crap you can't disable. Except for text editing, that one's okay.
>>47030641
If that effects all moves than Hyper Voice is still better
>>47030656
The fighting arena part only, of course! Collateral damage is a no-no.

>>47030825
I still don't like seeing low numbers, but yeah maybe there's hope
>>47030849
Well, my argument is more that there probably isn't hope, since Noivern is most likely faster than Meloetta, we really needed Geno to roll badly. But the dice we rolled didn't really alter that outcome.
I don't think we're gonna die here. Aria has great Sp Def and isn't wounded that bad. She'll probably be pretty low but not out.
>>47030902
You are a cruel anon
“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.
>>47031269
inb4 Fel jobs like a bitch butterfly
>>47031298
Save Dan for Altaria since he's probably gonna Mega it.
>>47031298
We should save Zappy Dan for a tight spot, he's probably going to be a trump card in this match.
If Noivern stays in I say we go for Destiny because Ice Beam hits EVERYTHING and evasion.

>>47031413
I don't know, Noivern has the speed advantage here, it all depends on whether he can beat his paralysis.
>>47031550
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.

1 roll won't count for the paralysis and the confusion. Should be in 2 separate rolls. Otherwise the odds are lowered.
Odds are funky like that.

Gobble i forgot how you do status effects.
Do you roll separate dice here or do you do it behind the scenes?
[From now on, I'll roll for each status using /tg/ dice. Keep in mind that the DCs for specially trained Pokemon or circumstances might adjust it beyond what you'd see in the games a bit.]
>>47031883
S'all good in the hood boss.
>>47031883
mmk.
Makes sense that's he's trained for status effect negation to prepare for us. We already saw the Sleep one he did.
>>47031883
Fair enough, he's the top trainer of the Elite Four for a reason and all that.

>>47032031
what's the crit range?
>>47032031
meh, even if she doesn't crit that's still pretty darn good.
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.
>>47032160
Ehh. While we probably can't take another Boomburst any other move and we'll survive.
>>47032160
Good news is that if it is paralyzed this turn it means that the confusion doesn't have a chance to go away.
Maybe with the 93 and the nearly confusion and paralysis fucking with it we'll be able to Dodge it?
>>47031883
>>47032008
Seeing as you didn't before this, and we're so far into the game, I don't feel like you need to do that because of me. Like I wasn't really complaining, I was more just observing the role the dice play.
>>47032403
ehh, I would like it just so we can plan between updates better.
It's not like it's hard or time consuming.
“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.
>Hyper Voice! Try to counter any noise it uses

She's done more than enough. Any more and it'll probably hurt her badly. Pride before the fall and all that.
Zappy dan now perhaps?

>Tell her she’s done. She needs to not push herself like this.

She needs to not let her ego get ahead of her health.
