I've been challenged to draft rules for some additional rotom forms (like trash-compactor Elec/Poison Rotom and talking-furby-doll Elec/Fairy Rotom) and was anyone else had done any work with this.

I'll be sure to add my drafts when finished.

Page 56 of Do Porygon Dream of Mareep? has some ideas. I need to write down Abilities and also add the Fairy Type (just had too much to do for 1.04 and a few things slipped through), but it's a good start.

If you have a theme park you could have an animatronic Abraham Lincoln or something for an Electric/Fighting type. Electric/Steel could be something like a monster truck, paper shredder, or robot dinosaur (sorry saw transformers ad while I was writing this). I personally had one control different rides and attractions at a mall of america stand-in for a gym battle. Mostly steel, fighting, and fire types.

Thanks! I haven't read the supplement books (GM wanted a vanilla game for our first setting) but this the base line I am looking for.

(If you're in my campaign, please don't read this post!)

I've been thinking of having my players get called back to the lab a little ways into the campaign because something's making everything go haywire. At first they can't figure out what's going on, it's just like someone's hacking the system: the screens are going nuts and the transfer system isn't working. It'll turn out that there's a particularly interesting Rotom that I think my Engineer PC will be interested in: Rotom seem like they'd make good characters in a game.

I'm thinking of statting stuff like an Oven Rotom (based on Microwave), Cieling Fan Rotom (fan), Backup Generator (Electric-Electric), Lamp Rotom, and Server Rotom (Steel-Type boss), and also figring out what it'd be like if Rotom was controlling stuff without posessing it.

It's a mini-boss and a special-interest pokemon, so it's gonna be as tough as whatever Pokemon they use and it's gonna be decked out with a bunch of servers by the time they have a chance to catch it.

Any thoughts?

This probably isn't quite what you're looking for, but have you looked at the Claydol encounter at the end of Do Porygon Dream of Mareep? I think it's a good example of what you can do with a Pokémon that's controlling a variety of machines in a battle, though it will obviously take some adapting for your Rotom scenario.

Oh thanks! I'll have to remember this when I get to that part of the campaign. It's a couple gyms in, so it's on the backburner, but I do think ny Mechanist will enjoy a particularly posession-happy Rotom to go with his Magnemite...

EDIT: moreover, he hasn't followed Pokemon too much since generation 3, so he might not know what Rotom is, but I'm sure he'll love it as much as I do. He likes Magnemite and Gastly...
