So, I've noticed that PS automatically treats moves as having the max number of PP Ups applied to them. Is there any way to use moves with less than the max number PP Ups, e.g. a Fire Blast with 5/6/7 PP or a Headbutt with 15/18/21 PP?

"Alright, hope these pokemon don't let me down. More importantly, I hope I don't let them down, either." Heliolisk (Helios) Ludicolo (Tango) No items for now. I actually don't have any non-training items yet, so it's probably in my best interest not to try and use them!

Vs. Jayy +2 CC, bringing me to 3 CC in total. For Archen: +1 EC, bringing it to 2 EC in total +2 MC, -2 MC to unlock Substitute, bringing it to 1 MC in total. For Cacnea: +1 EC, bringing it to 1 EC in total +1 AC, bringing it to 1 AC in total +3 MC, -1 MC to learn Sucker Punch as a...

Archen @ Amulet Coin Stone Edge - Stone Edge - Stone Edge

Hah, whoops! That should've been obvious to me after already knowing about using [ONCE] in subs. Hopefully I won't make that mistake again... Even if I didn't do great this match, at least I feel like I've learned a few things! Archen @ Amulet Coin Roost - (Stone Edge + Stone Edge) - Cooldown

Cacnea @ EXP Share Dark Pulse - Energy Ball - Dark Pulse IF Dark Pulse is disabled, THEN use Magical Leaf A3 IF Slowpoke uses Yawn, THEN use Substitute (20)

I understand what you mean about stalling when I have no good reason. Now that I think about it you're right, I don't really have reason too. I guess I'm just so used to normal play that I think SE hit = KO always, especially on something as frail as Cacnea, even though I know it's different in...

Thanks for tipping me off to my Archen's nature, I probably wouldn't have caught that for a while (if ever). And whew, I'm making plenty of mistakes my first time around, hopefully this will be the only time I make them. Speaking of mistakes, I'm really hoping this is actually Slowpoke, and not...

Shoot, yeah, that one was on me again. I'd thought that rest healed the 12 HP during my action, not at the end of the actions. "I'm worried about sending in Fargel against a pokemon that knows thunderbolt and gyro ball, but I'm even more worried about not keeping my Cacnea healthy for...

"Alright Stjorn, let's see if we can't hold out for just a little bit longer." Yawn - Rest - Sleep Talk (Facade, Double Edge, Seismic Toss, Lick)

No counterswitch for me, I'll keep Teddiursa in. Counterswitch Denied To be honest dig was exactly what I was trying to stop with my orders, because for some reason I thought moves like dig/bounce were counted under P/E moves. Guess I just learned my first lesson already!

I was worried about going purely on the offence, since repeated night dazes could force me to switch out with all the accuracy drops, unless I wanted to miss half of my attacks (which I still might). Brick Break - Play Rough - Brick Break IF Zorua uses counter, OR is to use a P/E move, THEN use...

"Alright Stjorn, let's show that you're not just a cute face!" Double Edge - Yawn - Double Edge
