Sorry Shiny, I'm sure it must suck to get lynched day 1 while being townie. At least you confirmed to the rest the townie win con, that's something.

And using the masterball willingly on day 1 and against a player who had no skills whatsoever would be stupid IMO, so I'm betting on it just being for flavor. And since we got the role info I don't think it's a cult leader, or at least he didn't use that skill during day 1.
I don't think the master ball was used on shiny, Shiny fled. A pokemon fleeing in this setup looks to be the flavor for lynching.
We don't know who the masterball was used on, or if there was a masterball even used. Though like I said if there is a masterball it was used on someone still alive.

Sorry for what happened Shiny. Trust me, I hate Day 1 mislynches and i'm glad I didn't vote for you.

With that being said, the flavor does confuse me. The Master Ball is supposed to be without fail but flavor implies that it might have not been used.
Hey, do not be sorry. It was my fault.

I thought that my win condition was a third party, so that is why I got confused. I thought killing the trainer would make me look bad, but as soon as you all said the trainer was evil, I was doomed.

Oh yeah you're right, I guess I misread the flavor. Now I'm confused, I don't know if other Pokémon was catched or not, since Shiny ran away.

I'm going to go ahead and say that it's only flavor and nothing happened, we are looking too deep into the master ball issue. It could exist, but seeing that the bastardy of the game is low having stuff like that I feel is unlikely.

I'm thinking someone was caught, why else show a masterball gif, along with flavor text saying good choice it never fails...
I honestly think there is merit into looking into the masterball issue. why not just have it be a standard pokeball or safari ball gif, there's definitely plenty of those.
Given my role says I can not be caught, I'm thinking the Trainer gets to pick who he catches at each phase, but also has one guaranteed catch with the master ball to counter certain abilities like mine, and I'm assuming roleblocks or something.
So what I'm thinking is that if we lynch whoever the trainer is trying to catch this phase he will fail as well, cause the pokemon would run away.

It's a bit late and I'm asleep, so it seems I'm missing out on info while posting lol.

If one of your abilities specifically states that you can not be caught, then yeah, the pokeballs are probably the trainer's skills and should definitely be looked into. This would mean that each phase we take someone out by making him flee while the trainer can catch someone else... This could end bad real fast.

I'm going to sleep, hopefully my thoughts are more clear when I wake up lol.

On one hand, I think having the flavor point out the Master Ball thing is probably indicative of the trainer having a super-recruit method. On the other hand, the flavor has been inconsistent, so maybe it isn't indicative of anything. Hmm.

Just a friendly reminder to everyone that there’s no night phases in this game.

uh excuse me?

Also Z25 Z25 how does your roleblock work? It's a Day ability?
Okay, I'm assuming that gif and flavor text means the trainer caught a pokemon to switch to his side. Given by the info lynching can be inferred as the pokemon running away. Anyways, I'm going to reveal my role, since I feel like I can do pretty safely in this setup. I'm :063:. I have an ability called teleport that prevents me from getting caught, but the downside is my vote doesn't count. Though, I think it's more beneficial for me to keep using that ability for right now as it means there is a guaranteed town voice. At least if you believe I'm telling the truth. I am btw.

Honestly, if the gifs do matter then the masterball is probably a one use item that can catch uncatchable pokemon like myself. Though I haven't been informed I was captured so it must of been used on someone else.

So in the hypothetical that we're dealing with a Cult instead of an actual Mafia, if we kill the Trainer, do we still have to kill whoever the Trainer caught, or are they "free"?

according to our win cons, i think all non cult pokes win the moment the trainer dies

cause it just says to lynch the trainer, not anything else, just the one

I'd hope lynching the trainer would be enough. "Great, we killed the oppressor! Now to spend 5 days killing their capture Mons!"

I’d imagine that just lynching or killing the trainer would do if it is a cult scenario.

It would definitely suck otherwise.

Yeah I'm practically certain that once the trainer is dead, we win. The threat has been (presumably, unless somehow the trainer caught an Oranguru since they can use Poké Balls but that's REALLY bastardy) neutralized at that point.

My win condition says I win when the trainer loses.

That said I've been sick in bed with the flu. :(

I've been wondering that too. Normally, in a Mafia game, that would have gotten him killed. Power roles keeping their abilities would make sense with the flavor and would be an incentive for the trainer to go after them.

Who did you roleblock? Also, what Pokemon are you?
