>Ajeel

>Doesnt use hippowdon or pallosand

 

[AnonymousBlank]

Apparently, yes.

On topic, Ajeel makes a giant sandstorm and dessicates Aerdactyl. How does it counter?

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Aerodactly gets an durability boost in a sandstorm so a sandstorm will be nothing but benificial

 

[Kisaragi_Megumi]

shameless plug

 

[DragonEmperor23]

Ajeel's sands absorb the moisture of the opponent which is a pretty large negative.

 

[AnonymousBlank]

Your shamelessness sickens me ovo.

So Aerdactyl gets an evasion boost while in a sandstorm but he has to be in the attack to get it? That doesn't counter get the water sucked from his body. The sandstorm also slows people caught inside so the boost gets cancelled anyway.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Durability boost actually. not evasion boost, my bad

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Also aerodactly has multipel moves capable of dispersing a sandstorm

 

[The_real_cal_howard]

Isn't m-Aerodactyl like, made of stone? Doubt desiccation would really be a problem for it.

 

[DragonEmperor23]

I mean, sure parts of it's body are stone. It's not completely inorganic like a Boldore or that one blue robot pokemon whose name is slipping my mind.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Aerodactyl also has several iq skills that would let it know to stay out of the sandstorm as its a trap that could kill jt

 

[DragonEmperor23]

Which IQ skills does Aero have?

 

[AnonymousBlank]

So it stays out of the sandstorm and Ajeel just spams a bunch of flying golems to attack it instead. How does it deal with being outnumbered by creatures that can harm it?

 

[WeeklyBattles]

@Anonymous Speed amping itself, speed reducing ajeel and his golems, and spamming ranged attacks as is in character for an aerodactyl

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Which IQ skills does Aero have?

Trap seer and Trap avoider

 

[AnonymousBlank]

The golems are on thing but how does it hit Ajeel's logia body?

Foresight

 

[DragonEmperor23]

PP's game mechanics, right?

 

[Kisaragi_Megumi]

All pokemon can hit non-corporeal/intangtible thing like Gengar or Dusknoir, so yeah Aero can hit Ajeel logia body.

 

[AnonymousBlank]

Aren't those spiritual intang? Elemental intang is a different thing.

 

[DragonEmperor23]

There are different types of intangibility.

Immaterial: This type of intangibility allows the user to phase through most attacks due to not being made up of a physical substance, such as ghosts or characters who merely exist as a disembodied soul. It also includes characters that are made up of things like energy. Of course, this intangibility type still has its own weaknesses - a soul is vulnerable to soul manipulation, for example.

Gengar and Dusknoir are Immaterial.

Elemental Intangibility: The ability to become intangible by transforming into a substance, such as wind, fire, or water, making it so that most attacks merely disperse them instead of truly damaging them, allowing them to regenerate. However, this would still leave the user vulnerable to many forms of attack, such as sufficiently powerful energy or elemental attacks.

Ajeel is elemental.

 

[Kisaragi_Megumi]

Non-Corporeal =/= Spiritual Intang, no?

 

[Drite77]

There is this guy that every pokemon can hit

 

[The_real_cal_howard]

...

Mega Man?

 

[DragonEmperor23]

Do you have a scan of Cryogonal being hit while being mist and not solid ice?

 

[DragonEmperor23]

...

Mega Man?

I found him

 

[Drite77]

Do you have a scan of Cryogonal being hit while being mist and not solid ice?

Shit, they got me It is caused by Acid Armor, who only increases the user defenses, though i can look more deep if you want

 

[DragonEmperor23]

What do you mean by it is caused by acid armor?

 

[Drite77]

Acid Armor is a move that modify the user's body according to some description, here

 

[DragonEmperor23]

I mean, an elemental attack would still work on it. Is there a depiction of a pokemon landing a physical hit on a pokemon using acid armor?

 

[Drite77]

There is barely any use of Acid Armor in the anime, but since pokemon can still hit other pokemon that used Acid Armor in the games, i think it is safe to consider that IMO. Even later games who go into more game mechanics explications lists Acid Armor as liquifying the user's body, but that can be game mechanics

 

[DragonEmperor23]

Yeah, I'm not disagreeing with Acid Armor liquifying the Pokemon, I'm saying that even if it did liquify the pokemon, the liqufied pokemon would need to be hit with a physical attack for it to be elemental NPI. Physical attacks working in game might just be game mechanics.

 

[The_real_cal_howard]

But...acid armor raises physical defense (somehow lol)

 

[DragonEmperor23]

yeah that confused me too
