I've been offline because I haven't 'felt' like getting on. But, next time I update '493' I will be adding several chapters to make up for my absence. Around that time I will also come out with new roleplays for my forum; many different choices that you can join in on.

Title:493

Info:I have 493 Pokemon each to dedicate a single chapter for an individual story for all of them. This is basically for practice and the desperate need of criticism, because I want and need lots of feedback on my writing.

In progress:

Pokemon Battles:

Here, I would like to explain just how I figure out my Pokemon fights, with the help of www.psypokes.com

First, with the 'Stat Calculator' I figure out all the stats of the two or four fighters, then write them down.

Second, pay attention to the speed of each fighter to see who goes first (unless they use a move which enhances their speed). Then if the move you're are going to have them do doesn't have a 100 percent chance of hitting, I use a dice to see if the move hits the target, but it also depends on the percentage of the move hitting.

Example (with a single die), if the move has a 75 percent chance of hitting then I would have it like if you roll higher than a two it hits, if a two or lower then it misses. This all is just a random number (the two), it was not figured out with math like the next example.

Example (with 2 dice), if 75 percent chance of hitting, times .75 (the percent) by 12 (the total number of the dice) which would be an even 9 (round the result if uneven). So, if you roll lower then a nine, the move hits. If you roll a nine or higher, the move misses.

Plus, don't forget to look at the immunities and abilities of the Pokemon, that is also very important!

Third, using the 'Damage Calculator' I see how much damage the attack does to the Pokemon. Minus the damage from the target's health then continue.

And that is how I do my Pokemon battles!
