Not at all, questions are good. Sorry about my slow replies and posts at the minute, I have a lot going on with work. We can decide it sooner if you prefer, though I haven't decided what pokemon Nika will use next yet.

Nika Valentine Spider was struck by the blades of air, tumbling over several times before regaining her footing, glaring up at Skarmony. Thanks to her typing Spider wasn't as vulnerable to flying types as most bug types were, but that didn't mean they could just shrug them off and ignore...

Nope, I understand what you mean. I can have Nika withdraw Joltik at the end of the Joltik/Skarmony battle if you like.

Sounds good to me. (You posted your last message to your own wall rather mine, by the way. I've done that so many times, like, at least all of them.)

Nika Valentine Nika failed to thank Tristen for her courtesy, oblivious to the fact that it was such. Her focus was entirely on the battle and the optimal strategy. Steel types were notoriously tough nuts to crack, which meant Screech could be a viable opening gambit to soften Skarmony up...

I'm happy to give your way a try. Nika's picked Spider, her Joltik, to go up against Skarmony. Do you have a preferred outcome for either Skarmony or Tristen's development? The type match up favors Spider (slightly) but Skarmony is a higher level, so either outcome would be plausible I feel...

Nika Valentine So, Skarmony was first... steel types could shrug off bug type moves, and flying type moves would be particularly effective against bug type pokemon. Steel types were weak to fire, fighting and ground... but flying types were immune to ground and she had no fighting type...

We can if it makes you feel more comfortable. So far I've played all my battles by ear and gone with whatever conclusion feels most natural. I don't mind either way.

Nika Valentine Nika squared her shoulders, her glasses flashing as the sunlight hit them. She had been considering how she would deal with that Skarmony if it came to a battle, and it seemed now that it might. Tristen had given her the option to decline, giving her more time to cook up a...

Nika, postpone a battle? Not likely. Girls too focused for her own good.

I agree, things have slowed down a bit. Either suits me, but a battle or some wild pokemon or something would help the pace out a bit. Depends on how eager you are for Tristen to catch her third pokemon.

Nika Valentine Nika pushed her cap back on her head as Spider popped her head out of one trouser leg before vanishing again. Nobody here had asked her about her time as a Trainer before coming to the Academy. "I spent quite a bit of time wandering around the Unova region, challenging...

Nika Valentine "I've been reasonably deep into the forest, though I've heard it's apparently dangerous if you go too far towards the center. I imagine the volcano is a smart area to look for fire types," Nika mused, "and I'm not sure about electric types. A lot of them, like Joltik, feed on...

Just wanted to check in and make sure you're enjoying yourself so far? I'm liking the pace of our RP, but let me know if you've got any concerns/questions/ideas etc.

Nika Valentine "You may be able to request a certain class, if you feel like your development is being hindered. I imagine you could arrange extra sessions with particular teachers as well." Nika didn't seem to notice, or at least pay much attention, as Spider made her way down the back of...
