Speaker: Hello everyone and welcome to A Path Through Time. My name is Dakota, your PM, your DM, your GM. And sitting to my left is somebody who has a morbid curiosity as to what dog food tastes like.
Speaker: It's me, Evelyn. I'm tasting it right- I'm eating some dog food right now. It's um... It's kind of... I mean... At least it's not making me throw up.
Speaker: And sitting to my left... is somebody who is joining Mansour on his quest to find the newest D&D move.
Speaker: Uh, yep, that's me. Uh, Eli, I was incredibly honored when Mansoor reached out to me to join him on the quest.
Speaker: I cannot give you any details because his location is currently highly confidential and I'm not even entirely sure if the location I have is correct because it's been a few days and he may have moved on, but glad to be part of the team.
Speaker: um He said he was in the 21st dimension. Well, that's, ah yeah, he's not there anymore. yes Last I heard, he was over in the Argon forest for some reason, searching. Did you say the Argon forest?
Speaker: Yeah? That's probably pronounced wrong, but people probably know what I'm talking about. I don't know what you're talking about because when I think argon, I think like the inert gas. Me too. So i just think out of a forest made of gas.
Speaker: No, it's a forest in Germany. i don't think I'm pronouncing it correctly, but that's... It's like A-R-G-O-N-N-E, I think is how it's spelled.
Speaker: Argon Forest, Jeremy. I'm gonna see if i know you're talking about. Because I used to live in Germany and that does not- The Forest of Argon. I have absolutely no idea.
Speaker: Oh, it's in France. France. was gonna say, all this stuff looks French. Yeah, I'm looking at all this, and I see like, Forêt de de Haute Cheve Voucher, or whatever the fuck. Okay, well, if it's French, it's absolutely pronounced wrong.
Speaker: I have never claimed to be able to write pronounce French stuff anyway. in the center of the forest, it literally says Le Chalade, French National Cemetery. I wonder if it's in France.
Speaker: I'll let you continue. Yeah, but moving on. Sitting across from me is someone who believes that jelly beans are not just a candy for Easter, but they can eaten year-round and enjoyed. Have you never done the challenge of the good jelly bean versus the bad jelly bean where one could be chocolate and one could be dog food?
Speaker: Fun fact, I got offered $100 trying to eat a dog food jelly bean and I threw up immediately. It's me, Jake. Yep, I didn't get the 100 bucks because I had Swallowed. Wait, did that actually happen? Oh,
Speaker: dang. They're bad. How bad could it have been? 100 bucks is a lot of money. They're bad. They're real bad. For at least, like, a week.
Speaker: So is this like that Harry Potter candy like Birdie Bots every flavor beans or is this like a different thing? You just gotta take one. Like so half of them are good and half of them are really bad. One could be chocolate. Yeah. It's... I can't man, it's been so long. Oh, what's it called?
Speaker: I can't think... You used do it for a Christmas game.
Speaker: Let's... Okay. Anyway...
Speaker: Uh, Bean Boozled, that's it. Bean Boozled. So you have a wheel with a bunch of colors on it, and then you spin the wheel, and you got a bunch of jelly beans, and they're all colored the same way, you but there's a good version and a bad version of each color, and you don't know which one it is. Yep, you can have, um like, you can have green apple or freshly mowed grass.
Speaker: I'm looking at myself. Oh, I see that. It's like an actual board game. That is interesting. Because I i know what you're talking about. i've seen these these jelly I've seen these exact jelly beans before, but I didn't know it was a board game.
Speaker: Well, it's not exactly a board game. It's just a spinner and a bunch of jelly beans. Yes. Oh, because they're made by Jelly Belly. It's a Jelly Belly thing. Yeah, because I've had these before.
Speaker: Okay. I didn't know there was a game about it. That's interesting. That's funny. I looked up Bean Boozled, and one of the relevant tabs and next to it on Google says Harry Potter, because of, you know, pretty bots have a flavor of beans.
Speaker: That's funny. o Yep. Okay. So, with that being said, um let us roll for recap. Okay. Gotta get out my... That means I need dice, doesn't it?
Speaker: It does. Usually when we do these things, we need dice.
Speaker: Four.
Speaker: Three. so I also got three. Oh, okay.
Speaker: So, I think we we just, like, bum-rushed the house. Oh, no. Before that, um... We talked to... The party talked to... Selena, Glaceon.
Speaker: um And persuaded her and... i think Alfred to come accompany us. Also, i think Brie and Abriss? Not Brie.
Speaker: No, not Brie. Abiss. So, Selena, Alfred, and Abiss. To come to... yes Yeah, and I think we briefly talked to Bree and something was I know something was off about her.
Speaker: Yeah, this was technically two episodes ago. Oh, that was OK. um But anyway, we went back to the we went we teleported the six of us, I think, back to back to Bob's house in that town.
Speaker: What's the town called? It's Bree's home. Bree's home city. Okay.
Speaker: And then Hikaru decided to bum rush the front door. um at no one At no one's prompting. um And then the others followed followed her in and then they all just like vanished.
Speaker: And then similarly the guys on the other going in on the other side of the house also vanished. We ended up in this dark void with a bunch of enemy Pokemon plus Silver the Shiny Espeon.
Speaker: And Silver basically went on this big villain monologue about how about how having the ability to speak and think is apparently supposedly unnatural um and unfair.
Speaker: but somehow like inherent differences in Pokemon species abilities were not, um and basically announced her plan to use the to use the Divine Orbs to, well, turn make all Pokemon quote-unquote equal.
Speaker: Well, equally dumb. and equally dumb. Yeah. So... Hikaru didn't like that, so she... She engaged with Silver like a debate bro.
Speaker: Um... For like ten minutes. And... And like... And then, um... Oh, and Bruce's, uh... Bruce's bag got emptied.
Speaker: Um, all of the grimy foods fell out and got just got disintegrated. And, um, also the boots of... The Thunderous Boots of Silence, or whatever they're called.
Speaker: Thunderous Boots of Invisibility. ability Yes. Also got destroyed. And then Silver disappeared and we had a battle with all the remaining Pokemon and immediately wiped the floor with two of them.
Speaker: Using what move is that? I think it was Blizzard because it was a multi-hit move. Not a multi-hit, but field. Field hit? Area of Effect. It's an AOE move. Okay.
Speaker: And basically when we... um That is where the previous episode ended. Where we're about to start the battle. ah One major point I do want to point out is that as Silver was leaving the Void Era, she stated that she could be found in Icy City.
Speaker: Right. And she wants you guys to seek her out. Oh. Icy City. I'm going bet five Poké Dollars that she she is definitely... So, yeah. She definitely has the ability scare her minds with her guard powers. I probably can tell where the orb is.
Speaker: Oh, yeah. um I don't remember. It was... We did confirm in episode that ah Silver had infused herself with one of the orbs, right? Yes.
Speaker: Well... I feel like it's pretty obvious which orb. Was it the blue one? No, we have the blue one. Well, what color did her gem turn? So, does that mean she has the Dialga one? What was the orb? What's the... No, she definitely has the Giratina one.
Speaker: Giratina.
Speaker: That's not exactly... She's got the disaster Pokemon on her. Because she infused herself with the Giratina orb, the black orb,
Speaker: so she has the abilities of gyratina or at least the god-like abilities of gyratina which is why she was able to make herself gargantuan uh because she's able to manipulate matter and antimatter the
Speaker: hoopa orb this is where this is where i revealed that there's 26 orbs for all 26 legends there are
Speaker: There's a lot more than that. what's your job I know. I've never seen every new place has the least... to so There's warbs for all the unreleased legendaries too.
Speaker: We just haven't found them in this world yet. we just go find the That is where we left off last time, Jake, I would like you to give us a random move.
Speaker: Um... Oh no, not the Ultra Beast. I forgot those existed. that's you say it? Or is- did this thing have a name wrong? It's the Roar of Time. ro Roar Time, of Time, alright. Yeah.
Speaker: What, isn't that- Roar of Time? Dialga's? That's Dialga's special- er- yeah. Not Palkia. Oh, shoot. That's Dialga's. Well, that's ironic. Okay. No, that's Dialga's. Oh, I made it too low. I made it too, like, legendary moves. Well, I don't think there's a move called Roar Through Space. To stay on topic.
Speaker: Palkia says like spatial something. Spatial Ren. Like spatial rift. What is Palkia's... Spatial Ren. Spatial Ren. Spatial Ren. Spatial Rift is a dungeon.
Speaker: Is it? Great. Okay. So let us ah roar through time on end. guess that makes sense. Roar of time.
Speaker: Let us roar through time on end. Okay, so we are going to start the battle music right now.
Speaker: So I need everyone to roll initiative and I'm going to do the same for for the NPCs. Ooh, I got a 10. I should have...
Speaker: um
Speaker: I rolled a 2. 5? A 2.
Speaker: 21.
Speaker: That's 20.
Speaker: Alright, so we got a 2 of 5, and Eli, what did you get for Bruce?
Speaker: okay so uh 5 2 and 10 makes 17 plus somehow 21 for the other three uh gets you some number it's more than the 20 that the opposing pokemon got you guys are facing isn't it is just the ursine garchomp
Speaker: Is this even we gonna last a single turn? So it's basically- we It's basically our original plan. It's just the Elstnering and the Garton. We went to get backup, and they didn't get- had enough time to get backup.
Speaker: Oh yeah it is! It's the original from the house! Shit, all the backup got destroyed immediately. Yeah, so it's it's Alfred, Abyss, Selena, Bruce, Walter, and Hikaru versus these little twinks.
Speaker: So, the Ursaring and Bob, the Garchomp. So, oh okay, so you guys are going first. or You're using Ice Punch on the Garchomp. you to for action. Do you want to use...
Speaker: One of your fighting type moves on the Ursaring and let me look my ninety need play rough the Garchomp. I got Force Palm Thunder Punch. I could use Force Palm, but plus 8, but my Ice Punch is 2d8 plus 10.
Speaker: What do you want? Should I Palm? see if he's still up then. Since I have Super Effective, I'll go for the Ursaring.
Speaker: i'll do force palm on the ursing actually okay that is i'm so glad that's cocked because it's like force palm on the answer but if it did not get cocked that would have been nat one so glad that was cocked i'm so glad that was cocked oh yeah okay yeah go ahead and roll that
Speaker: that 14. that'll do it okay go ahead and roll your damage that is physical correct force palm um
Speaker: Okay. 40, and then you subtract and double.
Speaker: Oh my god.
Speaker: yep okay so 40 minus his defense is 25 times 2 is 50. so uh so the ursarane takes a massive punch to the gut and it reels over coughing up blood and he's like oh my god have i persisted so much harder than you did last time it's like an anime fight i lose and get stronger
Speaker: right Who wants to go next? I'll have all the NPCs go last, unless you either tell them otherwise. Garchomp and the Ursa Ring. Who are we facing off against again? The original foes. guys are facing against Bob the Garchomp and the Ursa Ring.
Speaker: Okay, Ursa Ring Garchomp. You could finish off the Ursa Ring, since we already have two a Dragon and Ice-type to attack the Garchomp.
Speaker: Yeah, why don't we do that?
Speaker: um let's see if you guys would if you guys want the npcs to attack instead of you you probably want selena and um alfred to attack the um uh uh well well i i want i would like a shot at the guard shop at least steal the kill okay and don't worry you you guys are getting xp just for being in the battle so don't worry about trying to get a hit off for xp's sake okay then i'll i'll hit the i'll hit the earth ring too using you know what let's use trailblaze all right trailblaze on the earth ring
Speaker: By the way, do I still have my speed boost from early? I guess the battle before? It's been a bit. Yeah, you shouldn't do anymore. That was a 10-3. The battle ends. thing Yeah, no, we've had time for our decks to rest out. yeah that that No, you would not have that.
Speaker: Yeah. this Especially since you had a heal session in between. Okay. All right, Trailblaze, here we go. Seventh wait 17.
Speaker: Isn't Ursaring a defense? Accuracy is six.
Speaker: That's what think. Oh the way I have him built he's very physically defensive. Because they don't have that many special attacks.
Speaker: So this is Yeah.
Speaker: yeah So this is a 1d8 plus 8 move. um Just real quick, gonna fish out my... There we go.
Speaker: Oh, I got a 1. So plus 8, that's a 9. Plus Hikaru's attack. So plus 11 is 20, minus Earth's Ring's defense.
Speaker: Physical defense? That'll do 5 damage. uh-huh oh okay and then my speed goes up two points okay gotcha all right dear sirane just laughs it off as he looks at you menacingly like compared to that guy over there doesn't nothing all right who's next and he like put punches his hands so bruce is gonna go and uh Go over to the Garchomp and just say, all right, well, your Overlord just took away all of my grimy food that was nice and fun.
Speaker: So I guess I'll just have to beat you up fair and square this time. You should try to psych them out like you did. And go in for a play rough. You should be like, we have some extra. It's an 11.
Speaker: Uh, yeah, unfortunately, no. I did not think that. But I got an 11, so it hits. So that'll be 2d10 plus 10. that's so powerful.
Speaker: These final evolutions are getting butt walk by basically... 3 and 4, 17... what, 17, 28, defense times 2.
Speaker: so what seventeen twenty eight minus defense times two 28 minus defense. Uh, times two.
Speaker: Holy cow. Okay. That does 46 damage. What's that move? Is it special or physical? I gotta figure out what that is Alright, the Garchomp's do not have a physical. It's physical. It's non-existent. It shouldn't.
Speaker: Yeah, you're supposed to minus then multiply. don't think you did these stat blocks properly. You did? But. That means you had... Yeah, did.
Speaker: I think you broke the Rauh fool in these stat blocks here, but okay. 28, so that means he had 5 special defense. 28, which means that it only had 5 special defense.
Speaker: Oh, you said special defense? or No, physical defense, I mean. Unless you dump down these final evolutions for us. Yeah.
Speaker: Yeah, I don't think he did the stat blocks properly, but that's okay. Well, the thing is I i have all the stat blocks in my notes app on my phone. I don't have access to the stupid characters. Let me put this in reference. so i only I can't do it properly, but I can mock imitate them. Everything else is equal or way better than that.
Speaker: How are you still slower than Sammy was? Sammy started with six.
Speaker: Uh, well... That's also only because we broke the stat blocks because Sammy was initially starting with zero speed and we didn't want that to be a thing.
Speaker: Sammy was... No, yeah, Sammy would have had a speed of zero, which i just still think is so funny.
Speaker: Alright, on to the NPCs. Yeah, he gets his thought last every time.
Speaker: Okay. Oh, right, you guys all went, so it is the NPC's time. Uh, okay, so, uh, I'm just, I'm gonna have Selena go once again, cause she's the most effective one, and I'm once again, I'm gonna have her go for a Blizzard test. I'm just having an image of accuracy of 12 as I have written down. So, I'm gonna roll accuracy for......making this guy's ass really easily. It's like, I thought this fight would better.
Speaker: Okay, so, a Blizzard has an accuracy of 12. And i rolled a 9 for both of the opponents. o So, Selena goes out for a blizzard and it just whiffs over them. Like, powdered snow.
Speaker: not Not to move powdered snow, it's like she was coffee yeah actual powdered snow. It didn't do anything. So, it is now going... It is going to go to Abyss, if I could find where character sheet is. And he is going to go for a crunch on the Ursary.
Speaker: And that with an 11 that will hit which does 2d8 plus 10 damage which is dark damage which has no special effect. So we get sort four in a and a 2. 6 plus 10 is 16. Uh, 16 plus... I believe Crunch is physical so attack is 8. What did I say? 16. 6 plus is
Speaker: So, Abyss does 24 damage to the Earth's Sering, minus the defense. Isn't that hilarious? Will do 9 damage. That's my attack bonus. They're special attackers, not physical attackers.
Speaker: What? My dad what is twenty four well my power mirror attack is do have a power band.
Speaker: you right you do have a sour band Yeah, but I'm only sick. You better not do what Anirud did and slash your king half. I'm a glass king and I usually get one shot. I'm sick off of having more attack than HP. I'm sick off of having more attack than HP.
Speaker: Jesus Christ. Oh, I forgot about um bonus actions. i always forget about bonus actions yeah do you want to do the do you want to do all the NPCs and then do bonus actions for all of us sure sure since it's since it's still within the turn so uh in that case Alfred is going to go next Alfred is gonna look at the situation and see that the game is already almost over and he's going to go for a hyper beam which is 10 plus 20 little overkill buddy yeah hyperbe
Speaker: With an accuracy check of 19, he's going to stare Bob the Garchomp dead in the eyes and roll 4d10. He's got an 8, 4, 3, 15. And is plus is defense.
Speaker: sorry thirty eight physical plus his attack Plus his attack, plus his attack, which is 10. So what did I say? 28? Yeah, right? Yeah, 38. So it goes up to 48.
Speaker: Minus physical defense of 5. So that is going to do 43 Is that how that checks out? Yeah, 43 damage.
Speaker: Yeah. forty three days I think he did less damage than my play rough. It's because he low rolled so badly. He got so many low rolls. What's the math on that?
Speaker: Yeah. Oh wait. Special attack, not physical attack. Is it special attack? Okay, in that case it's going to do... Uh... Shit.
Speaker: think we're getting a math on that. 38 plus special minus special defense. Uh, well his special attack is the same. Special defense is different on the guard chomp, so that will do.
Speaker: Instead of whatever I said before, it's plus 5, so... God, too many numbers. Uh, what did I say he did? 48? that what I said? 43, so does...
Speaker: damage final. ys that that was Too many numbers. You mean like a all or nothing move. Yikes. Okay, so...
Speaker: So Bob the Garchomp just eats that Hyper Beam for breakfast, and turn order rolls back to you guys, so you guys get actions. only had bonus actions, got rid of all high power moves. Oh yeah.
Speaker: Yeah, Warcraft doesn't have any bonus action, so you can use your bonus actions for like... Alright, okay, here's my bonus action. No, you can't. TNT in for while. No, because it is just for moves, isn't it? TNT has a bonus action, please. what team here What a waste of a TNT.
Speaker: Okay. Okay, so who's going first? I'm gonna go. Hikaru's gonna use Charm on the Garchomp. Okay. Nice. And Charm does what?
Speaker: It lowers the foe's attack by four. I think because this is a bonus action, it's halved, right? That'll be two.
Speaker: Whoa, okay. 16, that'll hit. Okay. So, I have a question. Um... Can attack be negative?
Speaker: Is it already? What? It's... I'll be transferred to guys, said his attack to zero apparently. That's breaking the route rule. You've definitely messed something up. That's definitely not right.
Speaker: I know it is. Like I said, I don't have the actual character sheets to make this, and they made these like, what, like three, two, three weeks ago? So, I don't remember what my rationale was for that, if it's because I gave him powerful moves, or it's because I didn't expect you guys to do so well in this, but... Yeah, um'm I'd say probably was a 10 that you forgot to put a 1 in.
Speaker: don't think so. I didn't... Oh, no. Who can go for that? know i broke yeah um just I'm gonna stick with what's written down and it's gonna be a zero.
Speaker: So, to be fair to you guys, I'm not gonna jack the number I don't think it's unfair. Look at this fight. I don't think it's unfair at all right now. I do not think it's unfair.
Speaker: I mean, to be fair, this Ursura still one-shotted Malter last fight. yeah So, with zero attack, he's still one-shot. Well, the Ursaring doesn't have zero attack, only the Garchomp has zero attack. Oh no, okay.
Speaker: Anyway, Garchomp now has negative two attack, so... Ursaring. Eli. The Ursaring? Did you say the Ursaring? No, I hit the Garchomp. Oh, you did? I misheard them. Sorry.
Speaker: Okay. no Then i Bruce is going to back off a bit and shoot an ember at the Ursaring. Okay.
Speaker: Net 20. What a waste of a 20 on an ember. Nice. Nice. That's... nice all right nice that's yeah so that's that's max damage plus an extra damage day yep which is one d eight plus 6 so it's 14 but since it's a bonus action how did we do that was it total damage divided by two it's rolled it's rolled damage divided by two oh okay it's just damage is left
Speaker: Okay, so you can check the definite. It is in your definitions page, Oh, okay.
Speaker: Doubtful. Guess how the updated version. I remember if I did that for like 4.3 or jealous 5.0.
Speaker: Oh, yeah, no, I definitely don't have it. I'm too lazy. That was only the newer state. She said you lost access to.
Speaker: I'm just waiting for the 4 point whatever sheet to be fully updated to be working before i move everything over. I haven't done shit with those since I was in Washington.
Speaker: Yep. Yeah, i know Maybe after this I can go work on that. So... yeah now I got a 6, so that's going to be 20...
Speaker: So 10 plus 11, 21 special fire damage. And burned because of the nat 20. special fire damage and he's burned because of an act twenty Oh yeah, he- uh, did you say the Ursa Ring the Garton? Okay, well this Ursa Ring has Guts, so... I believe his attack goes also that, right? I don't wanna say anything, but... I don't wanna medigate, but like, this guy- Can someone look what Guts does real quick? Ring's usually, you should not attack with fire moves.
Speaker: Oh, it's just attack plus two. Yeah. Okay. So it just cancels out the charm, basically. It was on the Garchomp, not the Ursa Ring. But it's still on the 21. The charm still wasn't used on the Ursa Ring.
Speaker: Oh. Yeah, I didn't want to met a metagame, but I'm pretty sure Paul had it. Whatever.
Speaker: Yeah, I know Garchomp can have guts, but Garchomp, eh. Ursaring can have other things. Ursaring can also have something else. oh And I didn't know which one it was.
Speaker: But okay also, I feel like the burn is that the damage. It still takes damage from the burn. Yeah, it does. And that could make a difference here.
Speaker: Okay, so you said that was 21 damage, right? Yeah, 21 special fire damage. so that's divided by two minus, we're rounded down, is ten. What? Not divide- I already did the divided by two.
Speaker: Did you? You rolled 42 damage for ember? You said it was the damage roll divided by two, not the total damage, wasn't it? You said damage roll. I'm pretty sure it's total damage. I wish I had my character- Oh. Hold on, I- Okay. Well then, yeah, you said damage roll earlier, but if not, then it's 16 damage.
Speaker: let me use it Let me see if I can pull it up online. and basically you're not I be able to pull it up. Oh boy, this is...
Speaker: No, i have... I am able to pull something up. I don't have access to edit it, but... Because I'm not on my computer, but... What is this?
Speaker: Oh, this is your character sheet, Eli. Oh. opened your character sheet. Okay, so yeah, I'm not going to have it either. Okay, I'm going to say that's fine then. 21 damage final minus his... Special defense.
Speaker: Special defense. That'll do 11 damage to him. And burn... Burn is... I think that's 1d4 per turn, right? Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker: Okay, I'll memorize that. Final attack is halved until burn is resolved. Wow, so burn really is like... Got it. Guts is kind of useless in this. Walter, you don't have any bonus actions. In this kind system because can get plus two, but then you get halved. Yeah, because the Guts just...
Speaker: Okay, so interestingly, the only thing that any of the other NPCs have that I can use for bonus action is that Alfred has Protect. Protect. so it could be ready action we're just ready so that's a reaction move
Speaker: he like he's able to do that once yeah um yeah i'm gonna say he just used that i don't see how you would divide maybe a harder role maybe it's a harder number of bowls you have to do is double something like that it's react maybe well it's either way it's the first time it's a reaction move in the system i think so it's just it takes up your next turn you use it when you're attacked and then you just don't attack are they able to do it for other people ah i see okay yeah all right i'm not gonna have alfred do that well he can't anyway because i'm not gonna have him do that so selena doesn't have anything as a bonus
Speaker: Oh yeah, that's right. Okay, well in that case, it is Bob de Garchomp's turn. And he is going to use... to He's gonna look at Bruce and he is going to use my shot. That's a weird move for Garchomp to have.
Speaker: forgot he had that. So...
Speaker: I think I originally had him have... Now you're wishing you had it with all this AoE potential. So, I gave him Mud Shot. Yeah, I think the reason I had them weakened down is because you guys are so... You guys are all, like, specced into glass cannons, so... It's really hard for me to put anything really powerful out there without one shot on you guys.
Speaker: in
Speaker: Maybe we should get to a gem. Yeah. Okay, so... It is plus 8. Oh, after accuracy check, which I didn't even do. 17. 17 will hit.
Speaker: So that is 1 and a 2. So that's 3 plus 8 is 11. Plus his physical, I think, I'm sure that's physical. What I'm looking for, Mudshot, you said?
Speaker: Yes. Or, Mudshot is special. Makes sense. no Special. Spitting mud at you. Yeah. Gotcha.
Speaker: Which is good because he has a special attack of 10 as a opposed to his attack of negative 2. Hey, he's intelligent. He knows what to do. Darn it all. So that's going to do... So, Bruce, that is going to do 21 damage to you minus your special defense times 2. My special defense is 12. So that'll be 9. So 18 damage. Thank God, your line is basically supposed to be go a good against special attacks. Hey.
Speaker: Yeah, well I mean, my defense is 13, my special defense is 12. My defenses suck because I've pumped up almost all my stats to attack dom hu no As much as I can.
Speaker: Oh.
Speaker: Okay. Hello. So the Earths Ring is going to look at Walter and he is going to...
Speaker: Shocker. ah He's going to use Payback. Which... Which... I was looking through the moves I put down. plus 8 on last hit first. I'm just glad it's like the game where he just does double... I'm just glad it's not like the game where he just does double damage. So with a 13, he is going to hit. I'm just glad it's not that. 7. 4. That's 11. 7. That's 20 damage plus 10. That's 30.
Speaker: And payback is physical, I believe. So... That is plus 2.
Speaker: And it's a dark deck move. It's a dark type move, so not very effective on Walter. Okay, that'll be 32 damage minus your defense divided by two. So that would 18, so that'd be minus nine. He's like, Walter's like, I feel like he just gets punched he's like, shoulda done playing rough, buddy.
Speaker: well he did have play rough on here and i was like but uh 2d 10 plus 10 double damage i don't know about that one they say like last fight where he can do like a weak move and then like all right then i'll do next one no he's like okay next is this gonna
Speaker: i'm surprised this lasted more than one turn and we also our ice type missed You guys are up now. Yeah. yeah how old Would you like the NPCs to go first or would you guys like like to go?
Speaker: He's doing the anime gut punch and knocking him out. He wants to try it. Okay. Gotcha. Nat 20. Okay. Go ahead and roll for accuracy.
Speaker: Nat 20 again. That's the second nat 20 this episode. Nice. I basically get full damage then roll again. that right? Oh, is it a full damage plus one more?
Speaker: Alright, so... Yes, max damage plus a damage dice. Alright, so max damage plus a damage dice. 20 plus a 56. Point note.
Speaker: Yeah, 20 plus a 2, so 22 plus 24 is 46 minus defense times 2. Oh, he's also paralyzed if he's not knocked out.
Speaker: his def if he's not no no no so you said you said 46 right
Speaker: he did the enemy you did a total of 72 damage force palm what move you use force palm that brings him down to negative 51 health Oh, geez. It's true. Oh, you forgot to roll for his burn damage.
Speaker: uh fine it doesn't matter he gets a three he is now a negative 54. his body falls on the ground you see a little puff of fire is three extra fire damage is applied to him and he is knocked out for the count and bob the guard chomp is looking panicked as he sees six opponents who are nearly full or in good condition and he's like uh we that already could talk this out right hey Yeah, I believe we gave you the chance to talk it out earlier, typess and you said no? Hikaru.
Speaker: And then Hikaru puts her hand out like, wait.
Speaker: You said we can talk this out. Well, yeah, I'd rather not, you know, get turned into a pulp here. He starts looking at Selena, who gives him a smirk.
Speaker: Well, I won't turn you into pulp, that's for sure. That
Speaker: is true. It is protocol. don't Unless we could use our is what let's we use our badges to out of here. Whichever side knocks out the other side, gets to leave.
Speaker: i mean we yeah just He looks at the guy and is like, crap, right? And he readies his fists Sure. Why not? Do you want to try it? just see If we can teleport out of here... Then what?
Speaker: If we teleport out, then what happened? Okay, so you're pushing your badge. Oh, shit. Okay, you push your badge and you zap out of the battle. You appear back in the Flameback residence.
Speaker: We're trying to zap Garchomp with us though, aren't Bruce, your GBA starts ringing. oh Look how this whole fight just stopped out nowhere. I'll pick up my GBA then.
Speaker: and that
Speaker: Okay, so you pick up the phone and it is Miss Flameback. Hey, we're kind of busy right now.
Speaker: The call is silent. yeah There's a hologram of nothing.
Speaker: What did I teleport him to? Huh. That's strange.
Speaker: um I want Walter to work with this. I knew it! She could read her and she knew what the Lord is. The God's here. Alright, what do you want me to roll, Dakota?
Speaker: Go ahead roll perception.
Speaker: 15. fifteen Yeah, I think Bruce's reception is just bad. this dark void. What do you expect? Okay. Okay, so you...
Speaker: What's that? I got a 12 plus 2, 14. For perception. youre you You're still in the void. Walter's the only one that left the void area. Walter is back at base.
Speaker: I was testing it. I was like, see. Yeah, he hit his badge because he wanted to test it out. He was, in fact, able to leave. go and like That's how we came in. i thought he was he was trying to see I thought he was trying to see if he could take the out.
Speaker: weren't i I didn't say I was trying to do because the way we came in, it looked you made it sound like we opened a portal and walk through. So i thought we were opening a portal. I forgot we just instantly transmission basically.
Speaker: So, you know, I was not touching. I was not touching the guard shop. Yeah, I was not touching my teleportation.
Speaker: Okay, so with your 15 of perception, your perception of 15, you notice a pink GBA sitting on the staircase leading out of the your guys' base, and the door, the hatch that leads out, is left open for some reason.
Speaker: You notice that this GBA was left there very, very recently. And as you walk up to it, Bruce, you see Walter appear on the hologram.
Speaker: Okay, what are you doing with your mom's GBA, Walter? Yeah, um, we're having a fight quick. i think they knew they knew what the orb is because the hatch is open and your mom's GBA is on the ground, leading out.
Speaker: I think the psychic type ran our minds.
Speaker: Walters is gonna rush into the bunker. Oh my gosh, where did the... Where did the orb go? Where but what did... did Mom go? I mean, Caroline! She's a mom to all.
Speaker: i can't believe I called this. I called this that they were able to Oh my gosh. Okay. well Please don't tell Brie is a spy. Don't tell don't tell me that, because she wanted to stay behind.
Speaker: Did you want to look for Brie? I'm not saying this in character. This is- this this is- yeah I'm going to- I'm going to the bunker. you want to go look- Out of character, that is ah convenient that she wanted to stay at home, wasn't feeling up to it, and looked depressed, like she was about to betray someone she liked.
Speaker: Betray someone that she's friends with.
Speaker: She definitely gave up some vibes like- That's a good point. Someone who's been like- A cop who went undercover and became friends with someone, then had to turn them She was definitely giving that vibe. Yeah, none of us were watching. yeah He's gonna rush into the bunker.
Speaker: Yeah. while that's happening, Bruce is gonna go and play rough on the Garchomp being like, what do you know about this? What have you guys done with my mother?
Speaker: If that's okay. he that Oh, are you asking Bob the Garchomp? Yes. Oh, sorry, i didn't realize that. Uh, so, Bob the Garchomp's like, your your mother? what What are you talking about?
Speaker: don't have time to play games here, Bob.
Speaker: ah He's a street grr. He probably doesn't know anything. He's a street grr. He's a sacrificial card. He didn't tell her any information.
Speaker: i yeah I genuinely don't know what you're talking about. I'm sorry. It's not that I'm trying to weasel my way out or anything. I really have no idea what you're talking about. how
Speaker: Do you know anything about what Silver's been doing? I mean, yes. I've been carrying out her plans. I've been trying to hunt down to you four. Well, three. i don't know where the forest is, but... yeah Then you have to know...
Speaker: I would assume you would know about my mother then, if you know who I am. Look, I'm not playing any games with you right now. I don't know anything about your mother, and I really want this to be a way to either knock me out now, or I'm going to knock myself out, because I can tell that I ain't winning this fight. Hit me before I hit myself.
Speaker: Alright. I'll do it! I'm crazy enough!
Speaker: Okay. Fine. Okay, fine. And Hikaru rolls for a... Trailblaze?
Speaker: Okay, gotcha. Go ahead. he's He's inviting you to hit him, so don't even roll accuracy. It's just a fight back! Fight back! So that'll hit.
Speaker: And... Okay, that's a 1d8 plus 8 again. In his poor career. two Plus 8, 10. Plus Hikaru's attack.
Speaker: Oh wait, I just realized Trailblaze is grass type. Yeah. Okay, so what's your final damage? I always get Trailblaze's grass. It always just sounds like a fire type move. 21 minus... twenty one minus ten
Speaker: Yeah, I think it has to do with like hiking, trailblazing, whatever. Yeah, it's trailblazing. It's literally just before but i always forget a making a trail in ye forest, woods, whatever.
Speaker: Yeah, blazing a trail means to create a trail through the woods. Yeah. so So 21 minus his defense times effectiveness. Which is neutral. It is ground straying. Oh.
Speaker: Oh yeah it is. i forgot about ground. Yeah yeah. So it's neutral. 21 to 16 you barely make you barely make a dent in him and he's like it's really? You gotta try harder than that.
Speaker: Alright. bru bruce is gonna Bruce is gonna give him a temper flare then. i had a bonus action too. right Do we really get a we really get a bonus action every turn?
Speaker: The Garchomp looks at you guys and is like, you know what, I'm kinda sick of this. He just starts punching his own face. He just starts hitting himself. While we're arguing with each other bonus actions and damage dice, just starts punching himself.
Speaker: while we're arguing while we're like arguing about arguing with each other about about bonus actions and and like damage dice he just starts punching himself He starts hitting himself on the face and he sees like his nose start bleeding he's like, God damn it.
Speaker: He looks at the Glacier he's like, just fucking hit me already. And then... Selena's gonna go in for an ice beam and to end the battle, I'm just gonna say that she knocks him out.
Speaker: I didn't trust what she would have rolled though. With an ice beam on him. I rolled a 17 for my temper flare, by the way. Okay, I'll have you roll a Tempo Flare at the same time.
Speaker: Go ahead and do your Tempo Flare while I'm rolling while calculating this. plus
Speaker: fire damage special twenty second twenty seven when is yeah special yeah his thing Special so that'll 17 divided by four rounded down. No, just four.
Speaker: Is it? No, cause it's a fire. Fire is neutral on ground. Isn't it? No, I'm pretty sure it's not very effective on ground.
Speaker: Let me take a look real quick. Let's see here. Yeah, no, fire is just half damage on Garchomp. not Okay. cause it's Fire is not very effective against rock, but neutral against ground.
Speaker: Okay, so that's... you said uh... 17... So, gets frozen then reheated. Yeah, there will 9 Wait, yes, 8 damage.
Speaker: So... There's no point, he has 100 HP still at this point, or about. Wait, what? And Salin... You really buffed him up because the TNT thing I did last time. Okay jeez.
Speaker: no but it's that plot armor gave it gave him extra health so c selena did 26 damage minus his special does 16 times we can just say 64 we can just say he's knocked out uh so that's no no no he has 26 you guys are having so much fun with this you guys are like having a panic like in like where is everybody
Speaker: Oh my gosh, I just thought of something. we We took away the main protector of the orb to help us fight and left the orb unprotected, basically. That's why they probably made a move.
Speaker: Well, my lips Miss Flameback was supposed to be a decent fighter, too
Speaker: Okay, so, Selene is just gonna fire off a last ice beam and finish this stupid Garchomp off, because this is getting stupid at this point. So, the Garchomp willingly falls down and starts vanishing from the void. He starts eva- nah, he just eva- nah, evaporates. I'll say evaporates. Disappears from the void. He's gone.
Speaker: I like how um this whole time the Psychic type can listen and knows what's going on in this room. So, she little I wonder how she thinks about her subjects just giving up.
Speaker: Because we established that last episode she can't see this in here. So, okay. Do you guys...
Speaker: You guys are in Bob's house, right? Kikaru and Bruce, you guys are in Bob's house. Bob is knocked out on the floor. And Walter, you still have a hologram of Walter on your phone um your GBA.
Speaker: so the va Walter was doing stuff while we were fighting that battle. So if we want to go through what Walter was doing while we finished that up, Uh, that was pretty much it. Uh, you saw the hologram of it and then- It's because you see Walter running and that's him going towards the bunker. Nothing major happens in that time.
Speaker: I said I was running to- Oh, I'm in the bunker. What do you mean towards the bunker? You- You were in the bunker. Towards the On the way out? think that's what this goes. Oh. Yeah, you just- Yeah, because your badge takes you back to your guys' base, which is in the bunker.
Speaker: Oh. Which why said the- see the hatch is open. I thought was outside in like the house, not the bunker part. Oh. No no no, the pink GBA was left on the stairs leading out bunker where can that the was left open. Can Walter orascense? Cause I know he has a decent range. He's going to search for Ms. Flameback.
Speaker: So you orascense and you sense a very strong sense of an orb. And you look behind you and you see that the blue orb is still protected in its pedestal. So... Okay.
Speaker: Did Ms. Flameback get captured by the mafia people? That's something at least.
Speaker: I mean, I doubt it. No, the mafia wouldn't know about the bunker. Then did maybe. oh my gosh. I'm going to call out then.
Speaker: I'm going to rehatch everything like relock everything. Leave the bunk and go look for breathe.
Speaker: OK, so as you go back garden, ah Yeah, so you know, with that, let's cut out let's cut over to the others. So back in Bob's house... Do we want to...
Speaker: do Do we want to try to take Bob to a police place? To be fair, what do we have on him? no one... It's just the only description of it was a guard chomp robbing bank and many guard chomps.
Speaker: And we technically... You guys technically hope and we broke and entered into his home.
Speaker: We literally... There's nothing on him. that's true i get That's true. I guess if he doesn't have any outstanding warrants... Yeah, if he doesn't have any outstanding warrants as a criminal... There was no defining... Then we wouldn't really bring him to the police....thing on him, though, to show that he was the person... That he was ah in the... Just a Garchomp. That's a... Feature.
Speaker: Hmm. um'm I should be quiet. I'm not even in there. I'm not even there. So, why am I talking? i guess...
Speaker: And that was just a general group question. Oh yeah, that's true. You're on the phone, Oh yeah, you are on the phone. It's like... It's like that...
Speaker: What do you think, Ikaru? What should we do with a Bob here?
Speaker: Oh my god.
Speaker: I'm not happy, Bob. Not happy. say We say we take him back to the base. See if we can get any more questions out of him. Do we have a prison?
Speaker: Do we have a dungeon.
Speaker: I'm still on the theory that they're evil. I'm still on the fact that Ms. Playingback is evil. I don't think they have a dungeon per se. I'm still on that theory.
Speaker: Not evil, but she's gonna like destroy the world trying to make father.
Speaker: She's crazy, not evil.
Speaker: Okay, uh, Bruce, what do we do with Bob? That's what I'm wondering. I'm not entirely sure. We could try to recruit him. looks like he doesn't think they're joining us.
Speaker: Because we are how much stronger we were than other group. Is the Ursaring there too? Is the Ursaring there too? That's true. Yeah, that's a good idea. I think the Ursaring got... The Ursaring is knocked out and also on the floor, yes. i I forgot about him, but yeah, he should also be there.
Speaker: yeah Do we want to try to recruit one mechanic here? armor What do you think about recruiting guys from the bad side to our good side?
Speaker: Yeah, did we we didn't really have to do the whole recruitment mechanic thing though for them, did we? Is this our first real recruitment? I don't know if there's an actual mechanical record, if so I haven't used it.
Speaker: But I... It's a D100. It's D100 and then you've got recruitment percentage. Well, I think it would be a lot more fun if you guys tried recruiting him out of like actual like conversation stuff rather than a dice roll.
Speaker: So if you guys yeah try and physically reason with them, I think that' that would be a lot more fun, especially for the show. Me me and the Earth thing just get mad respect. We're both one for one right now. Okay.
Speaker: That's true. Okay. Yeah. If you want to try to recruit them, I think that's a great idea. just send them back with us and teleport here. There's a lot of things going on here. Okay. ah Isn't there an orb here? Oh, no. We already took that.
Speaker: Never mind.
Speaker: No, I mean, the orb we came for is behind you, Roger. You just confirmed it's still there. Yep. glad that that effort was
Speaker: not in vain. This is gonna be easy, because the Grouchomp is gonna so dead. gave up. He lost their orb for them.
Speaker: he let they he let ah one of their bases get found. Like, he is so dead if he ever returns to them.
Speaker: So is the Ursaring, basically. Because he was supposed to protect the house.
Speaker: i and If my anime logic is right, then they they will die if they return to the boss. Okay, so... yeah
Speaker: Okay, so are you are you guys trying to take the... And Ursaring. Because you guys can take people with you if you wish to return back.
Speaker: Yeah, I guess so. And the other NPCs are still with us. The other NPCs are still with us, right? Yeah, everyone's with you guys.
Speaker: Okay. Sounds like things... Sorry.
Speaker: I say we tag them out and badge back. Yep, sounds good. Sounds like things are happening. Brie! Where are you? So we should probably head back there.
Speaker: So all of you guys start holding hands as you teleport back to the base. And you guys all appear down in the bunker downstairs where you see Walter. i so I said I ran out and locked everything. I said I reset the latches and everything. So Walter's outside. And then ran out looking and yelling for Brie.
Speaker: Okay. Okay, okay, okay. So, walters Walter's outside as you guys zap back in. So, we're going to zap over to Walter then and your perspective as everyone else is in bunker. Why don't I do the orsense? Because i also get a sense of where Bree is.
Speaker: Did i get any of the did i recognize any senses near me? Because I said I was looking for flame back and you said orsense. Alright, um... No.
Speaker: No, you noticed the orb, but you didn't notice anything else on Ord- I am, he's basically- the ordinary no He's going to Breeze Room, he's going to every room, like, looking for anyone here. Like, hello, where are you guys?
Speaker: You search through every room you can, and I- As you get to Breeze Room, I want you to go investigation. These dice love me.
Speaker: Nat 20.
Speaker: With a Nat 20, you look at the bed and you notice that there is a tuft of red fur sitting on the bed.
Speaker: As you go over to investigate the red fur, you also notice that there is a strange glint of light that catches your eye, and you notice that there's a flashing red light on the GBA, which is indicating that it is recording.
Speaker: As you look at the GPA closer, you can tell that there's a background application running and you see it is the camera app ah recording a video. As you look at the recording, you pause the recording, flip back and you see that there is a about a 10 minute recording on it.
Speaker: As you hit play on the recording,
Speaker: You see Miss Flameback fumbling with the GBA.
Speaker: And this scene unfolds.
Speaker: Brie is in the base. And she's walking up towards Miss Flameback. And she does not look right. Miss Flameback looks at Brie and says, Brie, what are you doing?
Speaker: What is this? You've been acting so weird lately. I am not the Brie. You think I am? as Bree changes into a Zorowark.
Speaker: Now, won't you come with me? We need your help. You're seeking the White Orb, are you not? Well, so are we You can come with us, and you can help us find the White Orb.
Speaker: Well, where's the rest of my family? Oh, the rest of your family. Uh... And Zoroark picks up a tape recorder that is sitting nearby them.
Speaker: And he rewinds it a bit and presses play. You hear the voice of Arabella coming out of the tape recorder. Alright, Miss Playback, we're heading out to the store now.
Speaker: The Zoroark hits pause. Your family never went out to the store. If you want to see your family again, you're coming with me Sivertree City. You're gonna help us find that white orb.
Speaker: Cause that's the key that the Master needs.
Speaker: Miss Flameback looks at the Zora and says, I'm not going quietly. And she readies up a fireball and the Zora bites Miss Flameback on the arm. And Miss Flameback starts fidgeting with her GBA with one hand.
Speaker: The camera starts going all over the place as she's messing with the GBA, trying to fight the Zora work off while messing with the GBA. And you hear a phone call go off as The Zorowark drags Ms. Flameback away unconscious as the DBA clatters to the floor on the stairwell.
Speaker: The video continues. You see Ms. Flameback and the Zorowark heading up the stairs out the hatch where the hatch was left open.
Speaker: And that is when the phone gets picked up by Bruce. And you can hear the voice of Bruce echoing through the phone. After some time, the camera picks up Walter, who picks up the GBA, and you guys know what happened from there.
Speaker: I have been Dakota, your PM, your DM, your GM. I've been Evelyn playing Hikaru. I've been Eli playing Bruce. I've been Jake playing the robot. And we will see you guys in the next episode.
