Ability Choice Pokemafia [Game Thread]

You know, I had a notion to block Stormecho but decided against it.

Stormecho then. Also, the "RB/No Kill" thing worked twice, so while it can be flawed it's also good
 
The remaining townspeople wheel first on Dazel, but after their passionate defense the abilities converge on Stormecho. After the lynching is carried out, a thorough search of the remaining abilities' houses reveals that all of the mysterious killers have finally been eliminated, and the citizens of Abilityville go to bed at sunset feeling inordinately happy.

Stormecho was lynched. She was mafia.

All mafia are dead. Town wins!


1. Zero Moment - Trace - Universal Backup

Gardevoir "The Pokemon copies an opposing Pokemon's Ability."

You are innocent. You win when all mafia are dead.

You have the passive ability to Skill Swap. Your high sense of empathy allows you to exactly mimic the power(s) of the first innocent who dies.


2. Mawile - Magician - Cop

Delphox "The Pokemon steals the held item of a Pokemon it hits with a move."

You are innocent. You win when all mafia are dead.

Every night, you may use the night action Psychic. By seeing into your chosen target's mind, you can discern their alignment.


3. Wargle - Wonder Guard - Jailer

Shedinja "Only supereffective moves will hit."

You are innocent. You win when all mafia are dead.

Every night, you may use the night action Phantom Force. By extending your mystical protection to your chosen target, you prevent any other night action from taking effect on them. However, this also prevents them from carrying out their own action.


4. I like Squirtles - Contrary - Swapper

Malamar "Makes stat changes have an opposite effect."

You are innocent. You win when all mafia are dead.

Every night, you may use the night action Switcheroo. By swapping two people with Dark trickery, you can direct any night actions targeted towards one of the people to your other target.


5. Grass King - Overgrow - Vigilante

Sceptile "Powers up Grass-type moves when the Pokemon is in trouble."

You are innocent. You win when all mafia are dead.

Every night, you may use the night action Leaf Blade to kill your chosen target. However, your claws are not infallible, and if your chosen target is being protected for the night, your attack will fail.


6. Metallica Fanboy - Truant - Watcher

Slaking "The Pokemon can't attack on consecutive turns."

You are innocent. You win when all mafia are dead.

Every night, you may use the night action Slack Off. Lazing about around your chosen target's house allows you to catch anyone who targets them. Unfortunately, you won't be able to find out what the visitors were trying to do, and in the morning the order in which they visited will be randomized.


7. Stormecho - Super Luck - Mafia Goon

Honchkrow "Boosts the critical-hit ratios of moves."

You are mafia. You win when mafia comprise more than half of the living players. Your fellow mafia are Vipera Magnifica (Prankster) and Dragon (Gale Wings). You may communicate with them outside of the thread.

At the beginning of the game, Vipera Magnifica is the only mafia member who may carry out a killing action. If he dies, the action will pass to Dragon, and if she is dead, it will pass to you.

Every night, if a mafia member other than you carries out the killing action, you may use the night action Night Slash to supplement the mafia's killing action. By increasing its critical hit ratio, you will allow the killing action to bypass one layer of protection around the chosen target.


8. JackPK - Pixilate - Inventor

Sylveon "Normal-type moves become Fairy-type moves."

You are innocent. You win when all mafia are dead.

Every night, you may use the night action Helping Hand to give your chosen target a one-shot power of your choice of the following options: killing, healing, inspecting, roleblocking. You may only give out each type of power once. If you do not specify which power you would like to give out, it will be randomized, and you will be notified as to which one you gave out.


9. Altissimo - Cloud Nine - Dreamer

Golduck "Eliminates the effects of weather."

You are innocent. You win when all mafia are dead.

Every night, you may use the night action Foresight, supplementing your natural Psychic ability. In a dream, you will see visions of either one person, who is innocent, or three people, one of whom is mafia.


10. Vipera Magnifica - Prankster - Mafia Don

Liepard "Gives priority to a status move."

You are mafia. You win when mafia comprise more than half of the living players. Your fellow mafia are Stormecho (Super Luck) and Dragon (Gale Wings). You may communicate with them outside of the thread.

At the beginning of the game, you are the only mafia member who may carry out a killing action. If you die, the action will pass to Dragon, and if she is dead, it will pass to Stormecho.

Every night, you may use the night action Dark Pulse to kill your chosen target.


11. Superbird - Marvel Scale - Doctor

Milotic "Boosts the Defense stat if the Pokemon has a status condition."

You are innocent. You win when all mafia are dead.

Every night, you may use the night action Safeguard. By extending the mystical power hidden in your scales to your chosen target, they will be immune to any killing actions made against them.


12. Dragon - Gale Wings - Mafia Goon

Talonflame "Gives priority to Flying-type moves."

You are mafia. You win when mafia comprise more than half of the living players. Your fellow mafia are Vipera Magnifica (Prankster) and Stormecho (Super Luck). You may communicate with them outside of the thread.

At the beginning of the game, Vipera Magnifica is the only mafia member who may carry out a killing action. If he dies, the action will pass to you, and if you die, it will pass to Stormecho.

Every night that the mafia faction does not attempt a killing action, you may use the night action Quick Guard to protect your fellow mafia members from all night actions.


13. Dazel - Zen Mode - Two-Shot Bulletproof

Darmanitan-Zen "Changes the Pokemon's shape when HP is half or less."

You are innocent. You win when all mafia are dead.

You have the passive ability to Endure. Your innate danger sense allows you to change form and survive any killing actions made against you whenever you are targeted with a killing action. However, doing so is energy-intensive, and this ability can only activate twice. In addition, this ability does not prevent you from being lynched.
