Other technique ideas
Move lists and techniques
Battlefield Effect
Some techniques cause battlefield effects, which apply to both monsters in play, and remain in place until replaced by another battlefield effect.
- Resist X (Resist Fire, Resist Water, Resist Wood, Resist Metal, Resist Fire): Both monsters halve damage from the specified type.
Technique Riders
- Charge Up: The technique has no effect this turn. The rest of the technique takes place on the attacker's next turn.
- Shelter: The technique has no effect this turn, except the attacker cannot be hit by attacks except Area attacks. The rest of the technique takes place on the attacker's next turn.
- Backlash #: The user takes #/16 of their hit point maximum in damage (unmodified).
- Recoil #: The user takes #/16 of their hit point maximum in damage (unmodified), if they hit.
- Disarm: The target loses its item, and the other creature picks it up if it is not holding an item. Otherwise, it is not accessible until the end of the battle. In any case, all items are returned to their original owner at the end of the battle.
- Scope: The opponent's stats are revealed.
- Contrary Healing: This technique heals the enemy, not the user. (How much it heals is determined by healing_power)
- 1HKO: If the target is lower level than the attacker, they are reduced to 0 HP.
- Proportional Damage #: This technique does damage to the enemy equal to #/16 of the enemy's maximum HP.
- Proportional Damage (User) #: This technique does damage to the enemy equal to #/16 of the user's maximum HP.
- Multiattack (Random): Do one attack (25% chance), two attacks (50% chance) or four attacks (25% chance).
- Multiattack #: Do # attacks.
Vaguer ideas
- Stall or stop swap-outs, or punish them
- High critical hit ratio (currently we don't have any critical hits)
- Change the user’s Type to (a) the target’s Type, (b) this technique’s Type, (c) the Type of the last technique used on the user
- Interact with items - eating your opponent's consumable item, stop opponent from using items, etc
- Target: Own Team (target one or all of your benched creatures)
- Switch out one monster for another
- Multiattack (Uses): Do # attacks, where # is the number of times in this combat that the technique has already been used.
Conditions
- Flame Shield: Creatures that hit you with a melee or touch attack take 1/16 your maximum hit points in damage.
- Retaliate: Keep track of all damage you take between entering this state and next doing damage. You do additional damage equal to damage taken.
- Earthy, Watery, Metallic, Woody, Fiery: That Type replaces your other type(s)
- Harpooned: If you swap out, take damage equal to 1/8th your maximum HP
- Spiky: If an opponent swaps in, they take damage equal to 1/8th your maximum HP
- Lockdown: Cannot use items
- Prickly: Each time you are hit by a Physical move, the attacker takes 1/8th your maximum HP in damage
- Feedback: Each time you are hit by a Special move, the attacker takes 1/8th your maximum HP in damage
- Enlarged: Your maximum and current HP increase by 1/4, but you take that much damage when you lose this condition
- Wasting: Take #/16 of your maximum HP in damage each turn, where # = the number of turns that you have had this condition.
- Charmed: Techniques have a 50% chance of not working if they target the enemy.
- Flinching: 50% chance to miss your next turn. If you do miss your next turn, this condition ends.
- Wild: 1/4 chance each turn that instead of using the chosen technique, you take 1/8 your maximum HP in unmodified damage.
- Frightened: 1/8 chance each turn that you swap out for a randomly chosen alternative tuxemon on your team. If there are no others, you attempt to retreat.
- Slow: Do nothing on the first turn that you become Slow. On each later round, do the thing that you were commanded to do one round earlier.
Healing
- Healing (Reliable): This technique heals the user exactly its Power in damage, unmodified.
- Healing (Proportional, User) #: This technique heals the user equal to #/16 of the user's maximum HP.
- Healing (Proportional, Enemy) #: This technique heals the user equal to #/16 of the enemy's maximum HP.
Expanding the Concept
- “if” statements, e.g. “if target Asleep, user heals 4 maximum HP” . If enemy attacks this round, X. Otherwise Y. If attack misses, user takes X damage
- fields, e.g. “user heals DAMAGE DONE BY THIS ATT” or “do 50% of enemy’s CURRENT HP in dmg” or “user heals USER’S CURRENT DAMAGE and enemy takes USER’S CURRENT DAMAGE”)
- tags, e.g. Aerial (can hit Swooping), Underground (can hit Hibernate), Gaze, Light, Sound (some are immune to conditions/pseudo-c/pro-c from Sound techniques, and take half damage from them), etc
Ideas for particular techniques
- Verdigris (Resist Metal), Drought (Resist Water), Salt (Resist Wood), Sinkhole (Resist Earth), Steel Beams (Resist Fire). All Aether techniques with accuracy 100% and no recharge time.
- Scope (Aether, accuracy 100%, no recharge time): The target's Stats are displayed in the text box.
- Panjandrum (Earth, accuracy 100%, recharge 2): The target takes damage equal to 1/4 of their maximum HP.
- Evil Eye: Damage. If you have previously used Glower this combat, do an additional 50% damage.
- Eruption: The attack occurs as normal in the first round, and then in each of the following four rounds, unless interrupted (e.g. by a miss). Each subsequent attack has double the power of the one before it. Each attack has a 10% chance of imposing the Burn condition.
- Swallow: The attack occurs as normal in the first round, and then in each of the following four rounds, unless interrupted (e.g. by a miss). Each subsequent attack has double the power of the one before it.
- Revenge Stance: The next time you are attacked, your enemy takes the same amount of damage that you do. You heal as much damage as you dealt.
