TANK POKEMON

WHAT MAKES A TANK?


Tank Pokemon are strong defensive walls whose main feature is their double HP. Tanks are hardy and survivable in a battle, but deal inconsistent damage in actual combat. If you prefer survivability to consistency, a Tank Pokemon will be your friend. Heavily reliant on Core Abilities, Tanks can be used to cover for more vulnerable classes to protect them in battle.

Equip this option for an easy roll of the dice, minimal math, and huge defensive power.

Actions: Basic Attack, Charge Attack, Switch Out

BASIC ATK A standard attack with consistent damage. Inflicts a flat 20 DMG + bonuses on one target.
• Take -10 DMG from the strain.

CHARGE ATK A massively powerful attack with varying accuracy. Inflicts your Charge Atk Dice + bonuses on one target.
• Take -10 DMG from the strain.

SWITCH OUT A conscious (non-fainted) Pokemon can be SWITCHED OUT for a different one as an action.
• The new Pokemon may not take actions until next turn.

Core Abilities: Disrupt, Guard, Escape, Sacrifice

DISRUPT Disrupt can throw off an enemy long enough to weaken its charging AOE attacks. Activate this special ability to reduce the damage an enemy deals this round by your normal damage amount (replaces your attack). When using this ability, roll twice and take the higher result.

GUARD Protect those who can't protect themselves. Choose a target under attack: they will only take 1/2 Damage for this round. In turn, you will take DOUBLE DAMAGE for this round instead.

ESCAPE Activate Escape to immediately switch out of battle without sacrificing the new Pokemon's turn. Any buffs are passed on to the new Pokemon. This ability can also be used to quickly move across large combat zones.

SACRIFICE In a heroic sacrifice for the greater good, choose a target on the field to 100% Protect from damage this round at the cost of your own remaining HP. Your Pokemon will faint after activating this ability.
