Skill-Last Stand

Info: The active Pokemon gains a 95% chance that they will survive the next attack. [Can't use unless Pokemon has 10% or less health--With a 100% chance their next(last) attack will hit.]

*cough* COD *cough*

Modern Warfare? Totally wasn't even thinking that until you said something.

Isnt that like... Endure?

Probably, I'm just trying to think of things thatll make PvP insanely fun with all the twists and turns that could happen.

And the skills, uh trainers use them?:\

[Pokemon Type]Guard Spray: Guards against type moves for two turns, no matter the Pokemon Type.

Example:[Geodude Vs Mudkip. Player uses a Water Type Guard Spray on Geodude. Mudkip uses Water Gun...the attack is only 1.0x effective.]

That's not to say the opponent wont switch out with a Grass Type and use that for a super-effective attack. [X] Guard Sprays can't can't be stacked or anything like that.

*Post Below*: Not at all. ;P

Guys please. One of you thinks that a few items should be allowed, and the other thinks they shouldn't. If you don't like someone else's idea, say exactly what part of it would be bad for the game. Don't resort to cheap shots like mimicking. In a game that will involve a lot of PvP I personally think they should be allowed with the multiple use penalties.

It is a valid point about not wanting to answer a questionnaire about the battle every time you are challenged, and to that end I think the rules should either be fixed or be set by the challenger. This way once the challenge is made, it's just a matter of clicking accept.

Yes ma'am!

Im astonished by your ability to argue against my suggestion by completely avoiding my arguments and not adding any of your own.

So to help you out a bit here, im going to re-frace my response into a question.
Why should there be items allowed in battle?

My suggestions are a couple posts up if you didn't see them before.

Why not? Players use them all the time in battles with NPCs. If restricted right, items can add a new twist and layer to PvP battles. Although, yes, I wouldn't want to debate on what items to use/not use before the battle. My thought was banning the use of some items altogether, while continuous use of others raises the chance that those items will fail.

 

Then how about this: only certain items are allowed AT ALL in the PvP battles. No revives, no full restores, none of that. Potions through Hyper are allowed, Heals are allowed, Held items are allowed, stat boosters are allowed.

Item Stat standing:

Use of a Hyper potion: 75% rate-->down 10% at every use (all the way down to 1%) etc.

Or how about this: Just put the use of items as a PvP option that both players decide on before the battle.

I think it's a good quest, but it needs more of the basic elements, such as how big is the cavern and are there trainers inside etc...

There are going to be trainers somewhat, but a lot of the fighting is with Pokemon. That's why I didn't really mention any of that.

yeah, all the stuff that you said you were planning on writing, but would only do so if people asked for it. well im asking for it. email it to me. do it! do it now!

just click on my account and click on my email, that should work nicely

Oh all right. Just give me some time to make it look decent.

There aren't only potions in the games! There is the item 'revive'. Say a pokemon gets OHKOed by an attack, a revive would quickly get that pokemon on its feet, while the PP of the attacker will be decreasing. This also means that in a particular battle, one player might be fighting against 12 pokemon (6 revived) instead of 6.

The chances of success or failure of using an item isn't bad, but it will put the weaker trainer on more of a disadvantage. That doesn't sound that fair to me... I think it's the stronger trainer who should have a handicap I know, now that's unfair because he has more experience, but this handicap should be agreed by both trainers before battling), to make it more fair to both trainers.

My post explained that no matter what item the trainer uses, there'll be some kind of percent chance that it will fail. If a low leveled trainer decides to use a Revive on their next turn, it might fail, wasting that turn and letting the opponent attack the active Pokemon. It goes for any player item in battle.

Besides, if a weaker trainer goes knowingly into a battle with a higher leveled trainer, then is it no fault but their own. That higher leveled trainer might not even have a high item stat either. I also explained that even if the trainer is high leveled and they have a high item stat, the chances of them using any kind of item (including Revive, Full Restore, Max Potion, Whatever) again and again with success will go down.
