Tactical Reversal

Description:

Using its focused mind to watch its opponents actions, the Fighting Pokemon attempts to read the motions of the enemy's body and then evade, and use the force of the enemy's blow to push them off-balance. The Fighting Pokemon then counters the attack with a strike of its own.

Usage:

User may attempt to reflexively counter an incoming Physical Attack that an opponent sends at them. User rolls a d20 against the opponent (with any appropriate modifiers). If they are successful, the User performs its own action instead of receiving the incoming attack. (1pd)

Example:

Hariyama fights against Honchkrow and is wary of the creature's Flying attacks. The bird strafes in for a strike and Hariyama watches the motions carefully. Hariyama activates Tactical Reversal and attempts to counter the Wing Attack. Hariyama rolls against Honchkrow and gets a 17. Honchkrow rolls a 2. Hariyama shifts its body to evade the bird, and instead, slams it into the ground with a Force Palm. The Honchkrow receives the damage from Force Palm and Hariyama loses 6 FP.

Notes:

Tactical Reversal is a Level 2 Feat from Focused Precision. It can only be accessed by Fighting-type Pokemon.

Failing in the roll against an opponent does not use up Tactical Reversal's use. It will only be activated with a successful counter.

The User's FP for the attack it chooses is used normally.

Tactical Reversal does not affect the User's turn in the round. It occurs as normal.
