Yep. The place you last saw Chris, too. She's basically asking to meet in the reception area.

Re: PTU Divided Age: OOC Thread
Eh, the thing with weather moves still is that it's for all intents and purposes, a set-up move that works for your opponents as well, and in many occasions can try to make it work in their advantage as well. Coupled with the fact that it's on a timer... Yeah, +5 damage can make a difference, but unless you can get it like a free move like a few select pokemon can get, probably not worth wasting a turn when you can just as well get a move that raises your CS.
So yeah, it can probably do with a buff. Not sure if the +2DB or the +10 would be best though.
Also, I'm torn on the meditite. On one side of my brain it's like "Okay Mort, you don't have to jump on EVERY single pokemon you meet."
On the other...

Re: PTU Divided Age: OOC Thread
The fact that we get levels for catching many kinds of pokemon don't exactly help either.

Re: PTU Divided Age: OOC Thread
Eh, it is kinda what pokemon is all about. I mean, many people play pokemon just for the collection part. I remember spending HOURS walking over that tiny strip of land deep down in a cave system hoping to get a bagon. I got a damned shiny before it finally spawned...
Besides, there's no real need to feel too bad about all it, since Dusk has already said that the current "box" is more of a simulated environment than a "Your pokemon is frozen in time" kinda deal. (At least I think I remember him saying that somewhere IC..?) It's probably not too far off to think pokeballs are this then:
And it's also confirmed that even if you're not alright with that, you can release pokemon and keep the exp. I'll admit that might make me a bit trigger happy, although I'm probably still not going to capture pokemon "just" for the exp. Not sure if it's necessarily a bad thing either.
Anyways, Nul is trying to convince it to join it, so I'll just wait until he eventually pisses it off and intervene.

Re: PTU Divided Age: OOC Thread
Btw, I would need some examples on how to write this out. Whatever I'm trying just replaces the #N/A with #ERROR, so obviously I'm doing something wrong.Nioca wrote:For the ones like type resistance on the pokemon sheets, where you're unlikely to have a bad (unfindable) value, simply bracketing the equation with the following should do the trick:For the more complex ones, where an #N/A result might be desirable (to indicate the result you were looking for simply wasn't found), you'd be looking to encase the whole thing an an IF equation using ISBLANK on the lookup cell to determine whether there's been anything input or not:Code: Select all
IFERROR([Original Formula],"-")
It's a simple fix, it's just that is has to be done on every freaking cell that has a VLOOKUP on it.Code: Select all
IF(ISBLANK[Cell with Lookup Value],"-",[Original Formula])

Example;
Previous Formula:
New Formula (basic):
New Formula (complex):
Previous Formula:
Code: Select all
=vlookup($A17,'Moves Data'!$A$3:$K$794,2,false)
Code: Select all
=IFERROR(vlookup($A17,'Moves Data'!$A$3:$K$794,2,false),"-")
Code: Select all
=IF(ISBLANK($A17),"-",vlookup($A17,'Moves Data'!$A$3:$K$794,2,false))

Re: PTU Divided Age: OOC Thread
Alright, so that'll solve most of the problems with the sheet. I have no idea what to do for #N/A cells under Active Pokemon Team on the Trainer Combat page, though.

Re: PTU Divided Age: OOC Thread
The IFERROR approach seems to work fine for that too.

Re: PTU Divided Age: OOC Thread
Okay so lets say i have tri attack corrupted and I use conversionwith corrupted tri attack as the base, what would happen?
Would she change to a random type?
Would she change into the type that tri attack rolled each time it is used?
Would nothing happen at all?
I am contemplatig corrupting tri attack but i do not want to loose the stab she has with it

Re: PTU Divided Age: OOC Thread
Let's say using Conversion on any Corrupted move results in a random type being rolled. It's the only option that really makes sense.

Re: PTU Divided Age: OOC Thread

Oh, right. Err....no, sorry. Not unless you make Holly a Glitch 'mon, and I'm sure I don't need to tell you the risks that involves...

Re: PTU Divided Age: OOC Thread
Not going to happen.
Okay so if i would lose unique abilities Via glitching, I presume this is the same with other pokemon that have negative unique abilities like archen or slakoth?

If the dice rolled that way, then sure, they'd lose them. No guarantees, though.Arch Lich Burns wrote: Okay so if i would lose unique abilities Via glitching, I presume this is the same with other pokemon that have negative unique abilities like archen or slakoth?

Re: PTU Divided Age: OOC Thread
Nope. Corrupt Reality doesn't affect meta rolls, only in-game rolls. Also, I'm not a foe

Re: PTU Divided Age: OOC Thread
So Flare, with high jump 2 and high acrobatics could likely jump down without issue, and only take marginal issue if she messes up the roll. So I'll take Gust with me down that slope, and Flare is jumping down for a surprise attack. Need any rolls off me?
Flare acrobatics: 4D6+3 = [5, 6, 5, 4]+3 = 23
Flare acrobatics: 4D6+3 = [5, 6, 5, 4]+3 = 23

Re: PTU Divided Age: OOC Thread
Ok, I've updated my post with actions to take, I made an acrobatics check since it's narrow ledge in addition to carrying a pokemon.
Also what would happen if Bubbles used bubble while I'm holding her?

Re: PTU Divided Age: OOC Thread
I have an idea, she could temprarly become a glitch mon until conversion ends. That way she can get stab on Corrupt tri attack.Dusk9 wrote:Oh, right. Err....no, sorry. Not unless you make Holly a Glitch 'mon, and I'm sure I don't need to tell you the risks that involves...

Well since it isn't a Friendly move, April would get hit.Natrivv wrote:Also what would happen if Bubbles used bubble while I'm holding her?

Maybe Percival should have stuck around. It would have been... Interesting to see Grace pull a gun on him.
