Ongoing Games (In-Character)Play-by-post games are going on in this forum as we speak (well, read). All threads on this board are actual games, so please, only post on a thread if you are a player of that game.
Re: Team Rocket: How the Muk are They Still Alive?
Ethan lurches backwards as the barbs pierce his flesh. Despite the excrutiating pain, a smirk is plastered on his face. I love when a plan comes together. Ollie, muk them up. Bulldoze. Ollie trumpets loudly and rolls straight at the amassing swarm. A flick of the trunk and the elephant goes airborne for a moment before landing hard G5, sending out shockwaves beneath the mechanized abominations feet.
Ethan, however retreats to the safety of the platform, scrambling past Zippo and up the back end to K11.

Roll of fate here. The AoE should cover Skorupi # 1-6, 32-34, and 27-29. (1d20)[9] AC 2 Phsyical Ground, 3m Burst, -1 to oh who are we kidding, they won't survive if hit. (2d10+21)[27]
Re: Team Rocket: How the Muk are They Still Alive?
Will burrows through the soft dirt underneath the metallic monstrosities, and the ground erupts underneath Steelrupi #23, sending waves out to catch 21-25, 12, and 16 in the blast.
Re: Team Rocket: How the Muk are They Still Alive?
"Yep. Noncombatants, right side, antidotes, fresh waters, and prepare for boarders! Shout when the big things get near, I have a trick for one at least! Wagner, with me!"
Gerald moves to F16 and takes aim at 30, firing. Wagner nods, these...these uncouth braggarts would not take this day! (1d20)[20]-Gerald's shot (incendiaries) (1d12+6)[14] (1d20)[5]-Wagner with ember
[roll]1d12+16[/foll]
Ah...shooting steel types with incendiary rounds. So very cathartic.

Romeo also sent out Puck last turn, in his square. Has speed
Romeo has not much to do. He shifts to M27, and Konoha moves to M 26.

Re: Team Rocket: How the Muk are They Still Alive?
The bursts of earth are more than effective. The rushing sand from Ollie’s clogs of the machinery of the Skorupi, causing them to power down as their wires are blocked. Willy’s, on the other hand, whether it be due to simply being stronger or attacking from underground, completely annihilates the robots, sparks flying in the cloud of dust, twisting metal, leaving burnt, smoke shells on the ground. Ollie catches the Zebstrika to cry, causing it to stagger and getting a shout from Mark.
Wagner fires a burst of flames,almost taking down a Skorupi. It barely stays standing, chattering angrily.
Nobody else is in range to do anything as the carts race towards the front lines.

Artemis sits. Opening the tarp would be a good idea, but the sounds of the fighting ahead were too far for anything to be in range. Didn't want to give the Skorupi the first shot as the group approached them.

Re: Team Rocket: How the Muk are They Still Alive?
Ethan draws a Super Potion and plops it in Mark's lap. Sorry 'bout that mate. I'll make it up to the both of ya in Lavender. Buy you a beer and Zebstrika some oats. But first, lets mush some bugs. He hated the accent, but it should sound friendlier. Should. Ethan then books to the raised platform, raising himself next to Paul (J11). The intense pain in his stomach made him ignore the unpleasant aroma wafting from the older 'gentlmen'.
Re: Team Rocket: How the Muk are They Still Alive?
Romeo moves to M27, and sits there, still useless.

Re: Team Rocket: How the Muk are They Still Alive?
Gerald’s fire strikes true, small patches of flames erupting over the Skorupi. It succumbs to the flames, falling to the ground twitching.
Mark looks at you incredulously as you hand him the Super Potion. “You’ll owe me a lot more than a muking beer if this goes bad,” he says, pulling back on the reigns to stop the cart as he applies the Super Potion to the Zebstrika.”Muk, they’re gonna board if we don’t get through fast.”
Just before Paul throws, he finds the Pokemon he was about to catch knocked unconscious by Geral.d

Re: Team Rocket: How the Muk are They Still Alive?
"Don't worry. We'll be of aid soon." Diluvium flares again, getting anxious to finally act. The sounds of fighting up ahead were reaching them, but there was no way to help yet.

Zippo’s flame strike scorches the hide of the Skorupi, dropping it.
The other two carts swerve around the first, trying to avoid hitting the lead cart. The Zebstrika must hold still for the Super Potion to take effect, allowing the Skorupi to launch another barrage. Instead of shooting at the Lairon, they close and claw it. It retaliates by crushing one of the ones attacking it. The Zebstrika winces at the attacks, almost going down.
The Skorupi begin to close on all sides. They scurry in from either side, racing across the battlefield. They seem to be endless, innumerable. Behind the Drapion roar; thirty yards away maybe? Less?
Some Skorupi close on the front wagon, firing at Frondly. While the attacks barely harm the Ghost, they do enough. Four more attack Ollie; two only getting close enough to fire darts, another two closing to see how that works. The other Skorupi give the elephant a wide berth, as well as were Ollie blasted them other than the two attacking. The darts do very little; the thick, earthy skin stopping them dead, but the claws do far more, raking through the hide, leaving small lines.
The Skorupi that just raced onto the field are unable to act, but they do look hungrily at the Rhyhorn mounts.

"Fry'em, Sparky. Have your totodile help out. Get ready to throw balls at wounded!"
She nods and shoots a small line to Sim's head, dragging herself there. She then takes aim at 44, launching the electroweb. (1d20)[14] (2d10+22)[29]
Re: Team Rocket: How the Muk are They Still Alive?
Romeo does the same as he'd been doing for the past few turns, Muk all.

The webs collide with the Skorupi, tangling it up. A few seconds later there is a cry from on of the lead Skorupi as Mjolnir slams into it. The Totodile fires a jet of water as well but it goes wide, missing.
Isaac and James deftly raise their rifles and fire faster than you though possible, a stream of flaming bullets flying from the guns to decimate the majority of the beasts along your left flank. Soon there is only a mess of twisted metal.

Despite the super effective nature of fire, Gerald’s shot just goes over the metal hide of the creature, leaving it unphased.
The driver looks at Artemis in shock, then in terror. “They- they’re gaining on us!” he shouts, pointing back at the Drapion, who are now almost close enough to start firing at you.
The cool rush of the enhanced water flows through Ethan, speeding up his natural healing to allow him to better patch up.
The carts surge forward, starting to break through the lines. A few Skorupi cry out as the carts roll over them, crushing them, but you hear the wheels groan at the shells crunching underneath.
The Skorupi begin to board, assaulting the wagons. One attempts to attack Mark, but even while driving he manages to dodge the blow. One claws at Zippo, but the heat emitted by the Heatmor makes the creature recoil. One tries to shoot a dart at Frondly, another claw it, but both miss, as if some god above is smiling upon you. One of the few not trampled fires a dart at the Zebstrika, hitting it in the throat, drawing a lot of blood.
A horde of darts fly at the kid’s Totodile on the other cart. He returns it, only to have a Skorupi climb the wagon and claw him. Another leaps at Kubota, raking her ample belly with small, sharp claws. Two attack a Rhyhorn on the parallel wagon, almost dropping it, but the beast stays standing.
The circle continues to close, a horde of enemies coming in on the sides.

Re: Team Rocket: How the Muk are They Still Alive?
Sim shivers and reverts to the not-so-familiar pink goo at the skorupi's clawing. Muk. This isn't good. Ollie clear a path for them, they'll need it. Ollie jumps over Skorupi 38, rolling to D2 before slamming the ground.
Re: Team Rocket: How the Muk are They Still Alive?
"Yeah, I see them now, hush and keep driving. Gonna go do something stupid." Why the Muk am I doing this? I am not being paid enough for this. Life or death. No choice. Artemis leaps out of the cart to S15. Here goes nothing. She presses her hand to the ground, and a burst of electricity comes from her and the ground in a 3m radius.

Romeo sees Artemis jump off. 'Hey, I'm supposed to be the stupid, reckless one. Don't show me up' he jokes.
He looks at his new Vulpix, then at the incoming Drapion. Not yet, but soon. He rolls over to Arte's now vacant spot and shoots an incendiary round at number 74.

Re: Team Rocket: How the Muk are They Still Alive?
"Wagner, give them their comeuppance for taking out Sim! You guys, toss pokeballs, heal wounded, or make a break for the front cart! Someone tell Sparky to get back up here! ETHAN, WE COULD USE MJOLNIR PUSHING OVER HERE!"
Wagner looks in front and barks his fury! Dastardly machines couldn't even put up a fair fight! (aiming at 45 (1d20)[13] (1d12+16)[17]
Meanwhile, Gerald tosses a pokeball at 43. (1d100+2)[17]
Re: Team Rocket: How the Muk are They Still Alive?
Willy tunnels over to T-6 and surfaces, using Bulldoze to wipe out Steelrupi 36, 64, 78 and 79.
Paul's SMG belches fire, much as Paul often does after a night of heavy drinking, as he attempts to bring down the boarding Steelrupi #7. (1d20)[6] (unsure of weapon damage roll, someone can do it for me when it is figured out).
(Will use Zippo next turn, let me know when you want his actions since they go before the next round of rupi ones).
Ollie rolls forward, his mighty stomp quaking the very earth, dropping a Skorupi. Wagner’s target takes the blow, still standing tall. Willy demolishes even more Skorupi, dropping them all underground in the powerful vortex. Taylor’s Sandshrew digs down even deeper, likely to prep for Dig.
James and Isaac take aim, dropping the two Skorupi attacking their wagon. Romeo, being a terrible shot, almost misses, but manages to actually hurt the beats a little. Gerald’s ball handily captures the Pokemon; it stops shaking almost immediately. Paul’s shots miss, leaving scorch marks over the back of the wagon.
The shockwave rolls off of Arte, dropping all the Skorupi in a wide radius, their technology short-circuiting as they fall to the ground. Taylor sends a swarm of sand at one, crushing in in a vortex, while Jessica lobs one with Psychic powers, crushing it mid-flight.
