Battles
>
At the end of the day, the game will enter the Twilight Phase. During this phase, all alive pokemon will battle a mod controlled enemy pokemon.
>
Before the battle starts, you may decide on if you want to use a move.
>
After both pokemon have decided to use a move, it is revealed to each individual what the move is and what it does.
>
After you have decided on using a move or not, you will roll a six sided die to attack. The amount of damage you do is modified by your attack modifier, so if you have -1 attack and you roll a 3, you will attack for 2. If you roll a 3 and you have +1 attack, you will attack for 4.
>
You will never attack, defend, or evade for anything less than 1.
>
The enemy will then decide on if they are rolling for Defense or to Evade the attack.
>
If they defend the attack, they can minmize the damage they take but they will always take 1 damage. Say if the attacker attacked for 6 and you defended for 4, you will take 2 damage. But if you defended for 5, 6, or 7, you will take 1 damage.
>
If they evade the attack, they can dodge the attack completely if the roll a number that is higher then what you are attacking with for attack however if the evade fails, you will take a lot of damage. So if you attacked for 3 and they evaded for 3 or anything below that, they will take 3 damage, but if you evade for anything above 3, you will dodge the attack entirely.
>
Each pokemon will get 1 turn to attack and 1 turn to defend or evade. After that the battle is over and the game proceeds to night.
>
Any damage taken by any pokemon is carried over into the next twilight. You're basically resuming the fight that happened in Twilight 1.
>
If your HP reaches 0 by a mod controlled enemy, you will faint. Fainted pokemon cannot act or battle until the end of the next cycle (If you faint during twilight 1, you're not getting a chance to battle or act until twilight 3).
>
If your HP reaches 0 by a played controlled pokemon in a battle, you will flip.
>
If your pokemon defeats another pokemon in battle, you may evolve if possible and/or learn a new move.
>
Battles will get harder the more mod controlled enemies you defeat.
>
Pokemon can only learn up to max of 4 moves.
>
Not all pokemon may learn 4 moves.
>
After night, if there are any battles between players, those battles will be resolved during the Dawn phase.
>
A cycle ends at Dawn and a new Cycle begins at the start of the day.
Status Conditions
>
Other pokemon may inflict status conditions to other pokemon. While not all status conditions may or may not be present, here are a few you can look out for.
- Burn: Lose -2 Attack.
- Paralysis: Lose -2 Evasion. Any actions you perform during the night or in battle have a 50% chance to fail.
- Poison: Lose 1 HP at the end of each cycle.
- Sleep: You may not battle or act. During Twilight, roll a six sided die and if you roll a (C-5) or higher wake up. C = Cycles spent asleep. If you wake up you will not fight anything during Twilight.
- Confusion: Roll a 6 sided die and if you roll anything above 3, you will hit yourself for 1 damage instead of attacking.
Sample Role PM
Last edited by Alisae on Mon Jan 11, 2021 3:14 pm, edited 3 times in total.
Role PMs will go out today but I would like to get a quick final review done before then. If this review does not happen then I'll send out role PMs regardless. Either way you WILL get a role pm today. Due to mechanics in play I expect this to be fairly hard to balance but I tried.
Role PMs are going out.
Though uh, someone hacked into the mainframe and cursed the role pms and there isn't much I could do about it so...
ANYWAY We'll start when we get 10 confirmations min. I'm not opening the thread until 4PM PST (7PM EST) anyways since thats the best time to end the day for these kind of games.
Also hydras should remind me to make them PTs if they need those PTs cause I am going to pass out now I've been up since 1am

Missed something in the rules.
Q: If I roll a 1 and I have -1 attack do I attack for 0?
A: No you attack for 1. You will never attack, defend, or evade for anything less than 1.
hello everyone!
and it's nice to see you again, kitty. also Pooky. :>
"Sibling," Farkran asked, starting slowly.
"The CORE is full of lasers, and Chemist1422's entire existence depends on her eye. If she looks into a laser, she will almost certainly die. Did you think about that?"
"Oh yes, my brother. I love thinking about that."

Hi I missed another detail in the rules that should have DEFINITELY been in there. I kinda wrote up that rules post not on a lot of sleep so this is how these oversights even happen.
Let's say your PvE enemy has X HP on Twilight 1 and you have Y HP. You attack and do 1 damage to it, they attack you and they do 1 damage to you.
Your HP will be at Y-1 for the Twilight 2 battle assuming it goes unchanged and your PvE enemy will have X-1 HP since in Twilight 1 you damaged it for 1.
Anyhow might as well clearify that and mention it in writing.
