Psychic has three elementalist classes. So here is a new normal elementalist, focused becoming a mirror of the current battle environment. Tell me what y'all think of it. Mime [class] [+Speed] Prerequisites: Elemental Connection (Normal), Novice Guile, Novice Charm Static Effect: You gain the Copy Master Ability You also learn the move Copycat. Mimicry [+Speed] Prerequisite:Mime Static Effect: You gain the Mimictree ability You also learn the move Mimic. Trace [+Speed] Prerequisite: Two Mime Features Static Effect: You gain the Trace Ability Watch and Learn [Ranked 2] [+Speed] Rank 1 Prerequisites:Mime, Adept Charm or Guile Rank 2 Prerequisites:Rank 1, Expert Charm or Guile Static Choose two moves to learn from features rank or below.
Morph [+Speed] Prerequisite:Three Mime Features, Expert Charm or Guile Drain 1 AP - Standard Action Effect: Use the move Transform, this effect lasts for 4 rounds. Master Mime [+Speed] Prerequisite:Master Charm or Guile, Watch and Learn Rank 2 2 AP - swift action Trigger: You use a Mime Move Effect: The effect of this Feature depends on the Triggering Move. You may only use Master Mime with each Move once per Scene.

Please be aware that trainers do not learn Moves just by having Connection Abilities. | ||||||||

Unless that's a Word of Dev ruling, Domo, I don't think that's true. In fact, as far as I can tell, there's no official way for a Trainer to actually GET a Connection ability so it's never actually been a rule that's needed mentioning one way or the other. | ||||||||

Domo is correct. You can also essentially treat Domo rulings as dev rulings. He's basically a dev now with how much he helps us out, and he's been in our playtest campaign for nearly two years now. | ||||||||

Fair enough. Out of curiosity, why is that, though? Because I know that in .05 the only thing vaguely similar is move-based Capabilities and Trainers do get those. At least, I'm 95% sure they do. | ||||||||

In the Blessed and the Damned, Palkia's Major Gift grants the Transporter ability.

First there was the new Charlatan class, now there is a new Mime class. Now we're clearly due for a new version of Ice Cream Man. I jest. Granting a move and an ability on the same feature (which I assume is your intent) seems pretty powerful. Perhaps have the base feature grant copycat and mimic, and the next one grant one of the connection abilities? |

Thought it did. Ill fix that.
I don't really value combat stages as powerful. And the moves copycat and mimic are really situational, with little control over what will be available in a given scenario. But getting both moves as the base would be neat, if getting both features would be possible without becoming a eight feature class. |

I vaguely assume the ruling is because Skill Swap and Entrainment. I've certainly daydreamed before about the shenanigans possible if this were to work - particularly due to the abilities for Transform and Mimic. (Sylveon and Gardevoir have access to both Skill Swap and Trace, allowing a trainer to temporarily gain any Ability in the game) |

Doesn't seem to have a specification for Pokemon or exception for trainers. |
