AND I'M A DUDE

Laugh, and the world laughs with you.

Cry, and you cry alone.

You wake up at the side of a little lake. It looks peaceful. You spot some other Pokémon moving about, as well as a human sneaking up on you...

Dude! Welcome to the game! What do you do?

You're a Dratini, so your type is Dragon.
You start with 12 points and a Dragon skill of +0. You can add up to three additional skills at any time.

I should add that in order to evolve, you need to defeat in battle ten Pokémon that are stronger than yourself.

Oh, that's legit ^-^. By the way, you should add a cap on the whole "betting" thing. I could see that being RETARDEDLY over powered.

Think of it. What if I never used any of those points. And bet all 12 on anything that ever happened. That chances of me getting a 1 out of 12 is rather high.

WOW, okay. I was trying to figure out what the exact percentage of getting at least a 1, on a 6 sided die, with 12 chances... I'm totally drawing a blank on determining this percentage... 1/6 + X right? X being 12, but nope, that'd mean I have a 200 percent chance... Derp?! Got any ideas? My mind is being dumb right now xD.

I'll jump in the water, and examine the situation from below.

My bold text will determine in-game text. As your italics do.

I'll keep the points for now.

Getting a 1 on twelve dice has a chance of 1-(5/6)^12, which is 88.78%. So you'd have an 11.22% chance of blowing all your dice at once. I wouldn't gamble everything on those odds.
Regardless, there's actually a cap of betting at most six dice at once.

Alright!

The human lurks a while near the water's edge, then moves one. Other humans check out the area as well. Some ride on a bike.
You see a Psyduck get hit by a Pokéball and get captured. Some more observation shows that Pokéball are thrown left and right, but no fights are taking place.

OMG YES! Chance of failure, not the chance of succession! awesome, totally forgot

Hrmmm, 11~ percent? That sounds like something I'd definitely gamble on. Thats not low at all ^-^.

But yep - good call, I suppose I looked over this or something xD! (again lol!) I should really trust your analysis and not try to out-cheat any systems xD! Oh well, a little curiosity never did much harm :3

Hmm, doesn't look like a great situation.
I'll dive deeper into the lake - to avoid human-conflict
