Target: Self
Effect: For the remainder of the encounter, none of your Pokemon receive movement penalties for moving through Rough Terrain, nor Accuracy Penalties when targeting foes in Rough Terrain.

While other Trainers seek to overwhelm their opponents with powerful moves, the Strategist knows that there's more than one route to victory. Masters of manipulating the terrain to their advantage with weather, walls, and hazards, the Strategist takes any advantage they can take and uses it to outmaneuver their opponents.

Terrain Tactics
Prerequisites:: Strategist
Static
Target: Your Pokemon
Effect: Your Pokemon with the Fountain, Freezer, Groundshaper, Materializer, or Sprouter Capabilities may, instead of performing a Move on its turn, target up to X square meters within 6 meters, turning the targeted spaces into Rough Terrain. X is equal to half your STR Modifier plus the Pokemon's Power or Intelligence Capability, whichever is higher. This ability may be limited by the targetted terrain; for example, while a Pokemon with Fountain could turn dirt into mud to create rough terrain, it may not be able to create rough terrain when fighting on concrete.

From that space originates a Blast with a radius of up to 4 meters, though it may be smaller if you wish. Your Weather move affects only this area, and acts as normal within this area.
