So, I've come up with a situation that makes absolutely no sense, simply due to the natue of the move 'Encore', but it's there nonetheless, so: When Encore is used on Focus, can the target choose to change what it's focusing on for the next 1-4 moves? For example, my Chilkit used Focus to up her defence, then Ilumise used Encore. Can Chilkit use the next 1-4 Focus' to booste her Attack/Speed/Specials, or does she have to keep boosting her defence? In conclusion: Encore's a stupid move that makes no sense! |

I'm guessing any other stat, due to the nature of Focus ... but you're welcome to kill me. |

Overlord of Random

I see your personal Opinion, but Encore was made as a move wasting annoyer. It forces the last move used to waste energy of the opponent and leave an opening for the enemy. When Encore is used and you chose a specific stat to increase, you are stuck upping that stat only. Its almost the same as Encore vs Acupressure. Focus you can choose, Acupressure is at random. Therefore if you were inflicted with Encore using Focus you are stuck upping the same stat for a few turns, while if you were using Acupressure, the stat would always be random. Encore is a fairly good move actually >> |

I'll admit that Encore is a good move, strategically, but it makes absolutely no sense. The move description says that the opponent claps and shows theiir excitement at the move last performed. You'd reckon that if you were in a battle and your opponent liked what you were doing, you'd stop doing it. IMO, the move is ridiculous for an RP like this. Anyway, I guess it's only fair that I continue to up Chilkit's defence... |
