damn it of course they do
Okay ignore my stupidity. With that in mind this looks more balanced. Approved.
Er, moves generally cost more energy depending on their strength. That's just... how they're reffed. The 9% energy is just the cost of Spotlight itself; if the move she's using gets continuously stronger it will naturally cost more energy. I increased the usage gap, just uh, to change something I guess.
[Rachel] starmie (x) <Natural Cure>
Signature Move: Spotlight
"Metaphors are important. My gold stars are a metaphor for me being a star."
Rachel is a go-getter. Nothing can get in its' way. A crowd of people shouting at you doesn't sound much different from a crowd of people shouting for you; it all depends on how you look at it. And Rachel looks at the world through rose-tinted glasses.
Sometimes it gets a little hard for Rachel to see other pokemon for who they really are. Sometimes all it sees is a cheering crowd. And sometimes that gets to Rachel.
Normal / Other / Damage: Progressively adds +2 to total damage for 2-5 actions (adds +2 on each action) / Target: Self / Energy: 9% / Duration: 2-5 actions
Effects: this makes Rachel get stuck in an encore. It repeats its last-used move for 2-5 actions. However, unlike a normal encore, during each progressive attack, +2 damage is added to the attacks overall power.
For each successful hit she makes during the effects of Spotlight, the boost to her confidence raises her special attack and special defense +1. This comes into effect after Spotlight ends.
During this performance, the effects of negative moves such as taunt, torment, swagger, scary face, leer, etc. (anything that's effect would depend on Rachel loosing confidence) would fail.
Usage Gap: Every 6 rounds
