Me but with Pokemon arcade tags
Im embarrassed to admit just how much I spent on those 
… Im afraid to know how long it took for this… finding Giant and tiny Shiny are difficult as is, let alone all the sizes
@pseudo goblet I literally opened shiny greninja yesterday and now I have a froakie for it
Lol
Lunala Magic Coated: Salazzle’s Toxic, Duraludon’s and Toxtricity’s Thunder Wave
BRUH 
Jesus second Magic Coat and the TW duo failed again…
@spice rivet @fading stratus come laugh at this
those are turn 1 and turn 2 btw
32nd Lunala secure
Nothing
Crawdaunt with Muddy Water, Facade, Sword Dance and Lash out, umm
why not Crabhammer
WHY TENTACRUEL LEARNS SWORD DANCE
Lunala Max Phantasm on Dig Marshstomp lmao
33th Lunala
Horse bug! 
@mighty storm @normal cave @swift jasper
Having Geomancy but no farmable Power Herb is unfortunate 
Oh I never caught Scolipede in this game lol
weird flex to get a pokedex with shiny
Shiny scoli pog
Zane is gonna fill the galar shiny Dex before lunala
Hope not 
Let's make a bet
Will you get shiny gen 1 starters faster or lunala
Well more like a assumption
Let's say shiny starters in general
1 Lunala vs 9 sets of starters? Probably Lunala lol
Since Im mostly hunting her
Finally, all the 3ds mon are done afk ev train, now to give them the lil bits ev
No I meant any starter
then Bat better be super lucky 
I think the factor being
9 starters total in DA but I has to pick their route during runs
vs
1 Lunala thats always at the end but possible to lose
This is a bad team… pray to arceus
Also Hitmonlee took Moonblast like a champ
Yeah definitely failed this one
assuming my win rate is 50/50, should be around 70 runs total now
35th
Nothing
...wtf team Doublade pick Normal gem as their item...
Thank god, npc Swoobat took the hint and switch to Mimikyu, this is a stronk team
Stress free fight 😇
~ nvm, Lunala somehow Moongeist OHKO mimikyu, WITH Diguise 
At least that still gives me Lunala 36th
Still nothing
Moongeist Beam inflicts damage, ignoring all ignorable Abilities during the execution of that move.
Okay thanks, I was just searching if thats the thing lol
Also @spice rivet wth is this starter pick 
Im too stunned and timer pick Sneasel for me
Basculin looked better
Because of sub
Also fun fact btw Zane
Lunala's shadow shield can't be ignored by Moongeist beam
NPC used it and it actually worth a damn for once
against Porygon

37th
nothing, thought I got a shiny barbaracle but nah
Im just not gonna stop till I hit another shiny, and hope that'd be Lunala

Another good team
Blaziken with Coaching is amazing
38th and still nothing
find path so good I decided on start of the run lmao
Dugtrio is meh but I saw Grimmsnarl and the ol faithful Kangaskhan
Kang is like a good luck charm to victory
Lol
also yeah I need her to be shiny for Mega quest lmao
its crazy she still doesnt shine for how often I pick her
whats Confide???
-1 SpA
and why did it fail on Drapion??
dark type is immune to prankster boosted moves
Why are you even trying to drop SpA of drapion
oh prankster, okay
ask enemy Grimmsnarl 
Sniper drapion is like a pretty good mon
Focus Energy Scope Lens moment
Hope for team Frosmoth to get the Kang, Grimmsnarl npc took it instead 🤦♂️
oh hey Frosmoth confused bat with Hurricane
hit itself 

Close fight just now
Moongeist killed Dugtrio, last life left
Moongeist again into Kang, we live
Kang sucker punch the final hit, 39th secure
What I tell yall 
Still no shiny tho 
So not really a lucky charm
Three tanks and Cinccino vs Lunala, its takings so long 
cinccino is a funny mon
I think its a decent low price mon in draft
idk in regular
bro became magnus carlsen after 40 attempts
look at what I was dealing with
I mean chansey has like good moves
non stop chip damage and stalling
and it walls lunala
switch need to charge
ooh
Cinc and Chansey look fine. Amogus is a clear smog effect spore rage powder bot. Gastro has the worst moveset I have ever seen.
Light screen and then spam technician tripple axel
Cinc is never taking damage thanks to amogus
Helping Hand Triple axel was the best move NPC can do and its still chip damage lol
And chansey
thats what heal pulse is for
Chansey doesnt heal itself 
I while back I learned that chansey is the best mon in a format where you can play Almost Any Ability on mons
Also it prioritize Cinc, so no heal Amogus that I can spam rage powder
Imposter Chansey op
Also Sturdy Shedinja
also that eviolite gets its boost still after imposter
Yeah Lunala wouldve been easier if I go and ask people to join, but me being me, the toll I’d take makes me rsther do it alone lol
Eventually gonna do that for the harder targets, rn Lunala I have a 69% win rate so~~
nice
Peak lifeform
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8wzS9Pfa_0&ab_channel=IGN So yeah that gamefreak trademark is not pokemon related
Check out the gameplay trailer for developer Game Freak's upcoming title, Beast of Reincarnation. Set in the distant future, Beast of Reincarnation follows a samurai named Emma who must defeat both yokai and mechs using a legendary sealing blade. With the help of her canine companion, Emma must save a post-apocalyptic Japan from monstrous beasts...
i like the aesthetic
So what you're saying is
I'm not fat
I'm a seal in disguise 
Yes

Peak lifeform
That poor letter box man...

Why do I immediately think about this
Well now we know it's a new game
I should have scrolled up a bit before typing that but lol
I just learned where Blacephalon's eyes are and now I can't unsee
Where
How I saw blascephalon's eyes versus where it's eyes actually are
I essentially thought it was a regi situation
I can see what you mean
You know its funny, Im not too familiar with the mechanism but if the team pokemon only has Normal moves vs ghost mons that the normal moves can hit, if they had other types move then it back to usual normal cant hit
@spice rivet am I insane here
No, like most of the Normal types have the Ability Scrappy in Dynamax Adventure
Okay I am inzane then 
Thought Scrappy was a less common ability, I did see the list just now and a lot of these ARE in DA
Wait blacephalon has eyes?
I thought it was to contrast with stakataka which is all eye
Dear god
Curse young zane prematurely caught the Blacephalon in his game lol
Now I have to hunt them in DA
Lycanchonk
Huh, 7 runs without a new shiny
Dragon 
Closest to fully copy Ash team in SM, but Naganadel 
Also yeah Melmetal but I have a Meltan on standby anyway
Thank god Solgaleo was honorary member 
Is it even possible to obtain a shiny melmetal?
Huh, it is
Shame you can't use it in vgc
Behold
With the free Shiny Meltan gift got completing LGPE HOME dex, the pair is complete
That's a meltan, not a melmetal
And also evolve the lil guy before transfer lmao
Is it?
Summoning Local vgc nerd lol @fading stratus
Tank role tho
Melmetal has better physical bulk
Oh we cant get Shiny Gmax Melmetal tho
Registeel is very passive
You can only get one gimmick, bling or toku giant scene
Double Iron Bash is also an insanely good move. Breaking sash is very useful on a nuke button, and a 30% flinch chance is a lot.
The only issue is that melmetal has 0 speed and 0 spdef
0 speed is fine for trick room
But it takes a ton from any special hit
With 135 base hp tho you can probably survive weaker special hits
Melmetal Amoonguss 
Rage powder
Amogus is always the answer
Heat wave was the one that spreads right
Rage powder ain't doing shit vs astral barrage tho
Ye
Chi Yu eats a Melmetal Amogus board for breakfast
Forces Amog to tera water
Not good against ice rider either
Amogus threatens Ice Rider with spore
Tera water Amog is a big threat to Ice Rider
Using Trick Room vs your opponent's Amogus is also asking for trouble
Ice Rider wants its partner to deal with Amog
At least to follow me enough times for IR to kill it
Flare blitz inci lol
Safety goggle
Oh right, Rillaboom 
Incin is better off using fake out on Amog
And you're using something like goggles Indeedee anyways
Or Ogrepon idk how modern honse teams look
What tera kamen rider Ice use anyway
Melmetal is better than registeel btw
If that was the question
Melmetal is broken
If you're even asking the question that shows you've never seen the damage of iron fist double iron bash
Snorlax
Bad boy, they did say wrong answers only 
IT'S PIKACHU
Jigglypuff seen from above
Electrode!
I realised after we all wrote this that the answer shoulda been
LeChonk
why he so smug
It’s the Ditto with the weird face clearly
Oh, false alarm, just the old one I havent watch https://youtu.be/Z_F4IEQFdM8?si=yR-44LZeGOhd1gof
Blossom has a dream: to become a Pokémon League Champion! Luckily, a chance encounter in the forest gives her an opportunity to test her mettle! Watch Blossom bloom into a full-fledged Pokémon Trainer in the POKÉTOON short “Blossom’s Dream!”

the consistency in solgaleo shiinotic is so refreshing after bricking on rampardos multiple times in a row
the good openings feel more potent than silvally too with a more tanky pokemon too
Oh Pocket? Lol
yeah. this deck seems pretty solid but I've only had a few games with it
ik buzzwole is the best deck representation-wise but I wanna see how this pans out over time
Im still trying to pull Immersive Lillie 💀
gl
I still don't think buzzwole is all that
@fading stratus @normal cave @waxen moat @daring pine
Also I wrote ‘fucky’ when I was typing Ducky’s @ 
TANDEMAUS FOR HOW MUCH?!?
THATS BARELY BIT MORE THAN THE KORAIDON PLUSH I SAW!!!
Actually I lie, 50 rm more, so its worse holy
What even are these
Ducky, Rev, would you???
These do not translate well to lego. They lack the rounded charm of pokemon.
Yeah I've seen the kits in stores before not too big on them but they're kinda cute 
I shivers seeing the prices but gotta admit they re pretty good compare to other Lego Pokemon brands
That Ive seen anyway
Heres your roundness, these shows up in this side of the earth
I… never saw this one until now…
Get the dnite one
i'm sorry but why does the pikachu look pregnant
wtf
Horrific
Dnite...
Heck my father somehow got a dreepy for me couple weeks back, show later, unfortunately I didnt open yet

Bro how strong is Basculin, it one shot Cofagrigus and Indeedee(male) with max Geyser
That should reduce its damage by a lot
problem, Im now at 2 lifes before even 3rd route
also looks like both basculin has different moves...
blue was the one with dark moves
90% fail run, good way to start huh
Lunala please magic coat a bunch
okay lets go, do that more
MAN It lived on 1 hit 
good way to start~~
The fact the breeder type character picked the Ditto 

43rd the charm
mark my word, the moment shiny bat does come, Ill be becoming monke jumping around screaming
Good team
Lamp doesnt have ghost move but instead they have Trick r- and last hit while Im typing 44nd
Nothing~
not only this was the first time in memory I encounter a Murshana, but also seeing this shiny color for the first time
HOOO! Diguise came in clutch! Survived shadow ball because of it
last life
45th, please give me bat 
nothing still wth
4 more today
Jesus lol
One more just for you 
seems like Bad routes tho
Oh wait shit I ran out of Luxury ball
crap its really the last, need to charge
goodnight then
Not yet 
Go to sleep
damn it, fail run
Okay that’s pretty cool tho, neat if it can switch the parts order, giant claw from Groudon
Strong gastrodon laying in grass vibes
Snom walking on concrete
Then you realise it's ability and it becomes fine
It is
Nyoom

LMFAO
THEY DID HIM DIRTY
It's so funny to hear Incineroar 1v2'd Miraidon and Farigiraf
Wolfey's Incineroar built different

Now kiss
The ultimate enemies to lovers story ♥️
Huh, Me using Gmax Orbeetle, and Imposter Ditto only gets Dmax, interesting
46th still, hopefully 47 after I try using this Ditto on Lunala 
Surely, It wouldnt backfire lmao
I was watching switch 2 gameplay and it looks very smooth
compared to switch 1
well online battles atleast idk about others
I'm surprised you're losing because of mime and not seadra
And you jinxed it lmao
Moonblast, no 47

Ditto actually works if werent for team
Team kinda looking pretty feminine(tho the lopunny is male), also good team
Nidoqueen gets Shadow ball, Salazzle toxic and Vespiquen Swagger
Venom Drench even, okay 47th is secure
Nothing
rivalry nidoqueen?
Im not sure
Also, Aurorus no good move on Lairon so I click Max Lightning, npc Manectric lightning rod it 
Oh cool, Max Strike becomes Max Hailstorm thanks to Refrigerate ability
Lilligant gets Quiver Dance??? 
Fine team this time
Yep
Shame it has no movepool
Otherwise it'd be a fine mon
Liligant is another flavour of chlorophyll sleep powder mon
it doesnt get tailwind like jumpluff but it gets after you for immediate burst damage
It also gets encore
48th secure, deathless
Pfft
well jumpluff gets encore too
Nothing again wtf when was the last time I get a shiny phase
Musharna
Also, it gets some hella nice support moves
Oh no Musharna was just me checking its color online
Feared I made you misunderstood and seems like thats the case lol
15 runs ago god
And you sacrifice 0 bulk for it while getting a dark resist
you just realised
it has been used as a sun mon this whole gen

Did we seen this and was it uncolor
it even has like multiple regs wins
I have not seen it over jumpluff ever
LiliH is a support beast with close combat
Even gets upper hand and coaching
Funny they couldve just nerf Dark and Dragon back then with like, Dark nerf in sun and idk Dragon nerf in hail, but nah they just make a whole new type
this was probably the best result by hisuian liligant
Whats the joke? Lol
Ew cringe team
Now this team is based
you love liligant but hates a strat its good in
DA moment, who tf gave Salazzle Cross Poison, I just noticed 
That is basic bitch tr with no fun mons aside from lili
this team is also just sun sleep powder spam
and take advantage of sleep with setup
Sounds like my kind of team 
I'll assure its not your kinda team
sleep powder is one of the most volatile shits ever
You do know all the team I used from you have Amoonguss right lol
Oh sleep powder, oh yeah that shit sucks 
they'll never make a fast spore user
for reference minus atk 0 iv bonnet will still never get a speed boost with plus speed 31 iv 252 ev
Fail run
bro really gunna stop on 47
Nah 48 already
Also Nidoqueen as starter this time, should be good
49th
Also wow done in 10 minutes, thats a record
Doesnt give a shiny tho 
Oh god Cinccino hello 
Bad routes seem like
Time to sweep everything except lunala
OH I JUST SAW KANG, ME LUCKY CHARM
lol
Problem is, do I abandon coaching Hitmontop for Kang or trust the NPC get and do good with Kang
I have to, I need the sucker punch
All four people wanted Kang 
BECAUSE THEY RE BLOODY NPC 
I never tried online but with Offline I can only blame the game or myself, also free arrangement
Could yall imagine instead of me rambling all night like now, I was here shouting at normie kid I cant touch or see lol
Also Kang saved the run, ez 3 turns, 49th get
Max darkness good
Nothing 
50th the charm
Think the estimate runs total maybe 95??
85 90 maybe, my lost counter aint that high I think
35 worth of possible missed shiny Lunala opportunities 
Pretty good team at start, routes looks good too 👀
2 dark attacker, one poison for fairy tank, and fish
Dies to ice aah team
I could try avoid those lol
Just get freya to replace the fish
I cant exactly control them 
Oh wow they listened, they picked the Hawlucha we fought
Team is becoming very anti ghost, wish it stay lol
Andddd Freya changed to Doublade, which does not get any ghost moves
At least it helps a lot with Mimikyu rn
Wooo Lunala No. 50 🎉
took you only half a year
Bro they straight up making Nebby bleed here
Little dude gonna die
I mean depend on the game it is eventually lol
POKEMON SCARLET AND VIOLET LOOK INCREDIBLE ON THE SWITCH 2..
This content is NOT suitable for viewers under 13 years old.
#pokemon #gaming #pokemonscarletandviolet #switch2
‘Shiny hunt while flying’ badddddd idea 
yeah the game is way smoother now
Removing all lag is a big upgrade
But idk if it's a "buy a new console and version" level upgrade
bro if the worlds is in switch 2 the spectator mode looks stunning it just flows
well would probably not allow switch 2 this year
to make it "fair"
second celesteel
chocolateon
Oh god lol
Oh, she who is not to be named hates pokemon. Not a shocker given her mid writing
The mold person yes
Do I wanna know
It's a very popular person famous for twitter racism
Or well transphobia
Whatever that was
I forgot
Both and more, a genuinely terrible person
Norse region 🎉

Yup
bro I stg this game hates me lately 😭
bad draws and now I just ran into a celebi that raw flipped 3 heads for exact ko
I play it as pull png simulator nowadays
It already uses a Moon stone
You could make a regional form that doesn't use a stone then evolve it
They also gave delcatty like
One of the abilities of all time
Which is something
Yup
That being?
Do you know what sylveons ability is
Pixilite? Normalize for Delcatty?
The rares from the new pack have been amazing
Probably one of the most budget friendly packs cause of the combination of buzzwole and just the long list of really good rares
Ex or fullart??
Actually, it just points to where the treasure of ruin vaults were.
Tl;dw. What's the toku
anyone else unable to get into pocket right now?
yeah servers are down
Servers of multiple things are down
F
I have like a pack or two to pull
Finally out for good
Talk to the nintendo switch to get a rare candy key item 
Is that Kitt?! 
server still down 😦 my packs noooo
OH ITS BACK
PUPPY
and another full art blacephalon
They do
P sure that was confirmed
They also eat other things
likely
Enjoying odyssey, man?
good luck
Thanks
what is it about?
After I'm done with it I'll play
Marine botany
why did I even expect the fish and water guy
AKA remember 1000 weird ass names
to take an exam that isn't FUCKING CENTERED around the sea
Well, I had physics Monday if that counts 
Though to this day I don't know why I have it
And yet I did not learn that
I had to take a Sociology exam. For international politics and Economics. I'm sorry, I didn't get how macroeconomics is tied to society except making me the Joker
IT IS KITT
It's official
I'm in the discord server
also not going to spoil WHY she's there
Wynaut
Are there mechas in the game for her to build
Kitt is just a tech girl
Doesn't need to be mechs specifically
As explicitly said by the creator in the discord
whoever completes Odyssey knows why she's there
So ig I just have to discover why
Btw they made the small guys vroken
Volbeat, Illumise, Plusle, all top top tiers
For...support
Also altaria with fur coat 
Plusle is also randomly one of the tankiest mons in the game
105 hp and 115 both defenses
Flygon also gets 100 special attack and quiver dance
If jumpluff is good I might use her
From EO3
Checks out
She also looks very good
Yesterday I ended up getting uh
Fearow, rattata, gulpin, krabby and poochyena

Fenrir pooch looks pretty sick
I love how they made the scissor crab the kingler line
It just fits
Also fearow is Iwaoropenelep from EO1
Yeah, thunderbird
Caught on camera
Nuero
I do have obvious bias
But
Come on
I do like wailord and aerodactyl too, though
There's also wailord

The last line in the document also looks like spoilers, so I'm avoiding that
With enemies all around and that thing as well
Keep in mind
At this point in the game, that thing is optional
And how long is 8 days in real time
But it's almost required to grind and beat the boss at floor 10
You have to walk around to make time pass
There's a recovery spot, thankfully
So you can grind a ton
So just walk around and avoid the wyvern like a plague
And it's like...yeah, actual days
She's also hyper-aggressive
She WILL chase you
If you enter her range
Makes sense
Giving you instant dreadscythe flashbacks
Floor 3.
First stratum
You are still a weenie adventurer
And you go down the stairs, finding yourself in an open space. 2 steps and the game tells you "this creature smells blood, and it's out for its next prey"
With also "there's no shame in running away"
Alright now I also found a jigglypuff
The thing has 900 hp, attacks that deal around 130 hp per hit with the best armor at that point, and it has a fucking oneshot
Keep in mind
You are like level 6
With 100 hp
And deal 50 per hit
And 50 is for a supereffective thunder hit
Otherwise it's literally 2
EO and Spartan tutorials, name a better duo. EO2 tutorial is straight up "find the exit without dying"
Dreadscythe then goes away
And you find its family
Stalkers
this thing is nightmare fuel
also because later on you realize that those are the weakest members that fled from their habitat because they were hunted by their own kind
and if that is a weak member, I'll let you imagine the rest
At least once you beat the first stratum boss you can get everyone to level 17 automatically
If I read it right
Ok, the music is something special
It's the Fafnir's Knight
Explorers of time meets EO music...god, it's beautiful
Hard mode immediately, I'm no picnic enjoyer 
Yeah
And that wouldn't be fair
But like, you having EVs but not the opponent is just boring
Love how you have to interact to get items that are important
Instead of most modern things that just "yeah, have everything already"
Graphics are insane, love this style of custom sprites and the old firered look
The warp wireeeee
And Pokémon ranger shadow of almia music
I could recognize this march everywhere...I need to play these gems again
Are you already farther than me 😭
I opened the map
I still haven't entered the guild house
And this music is something special
Yeah I like it too
Talrega port...and it's been so long
It's obviously degraded for the gba, but this is Pokémon ranger music
Battle music is EO1
Anything major I miss
Pokémon Odyssey is out
Got mareep and exeggcute
Tbh methinks fangame of the year just by the first 7 minutes
Whats the romhack about
Etrian Odyssey meets Pokémon and Made in Abyss
… is that one the one with body horror
...there's MiA here too? 
Yall havent answer my question yet lol
A great deal of references to it
Yes
Oh boy
Welp lol
Well there probably won't be any kids getting bisected thankfully
It's in the forest
Ok, bellsprout
I know
Wtf do I name the exeggcute
Mine's adamant 
Also jolly nidoran female
And brave male
Brave isn't awful but I wanted a bit more speed
Jolly female is the pits tho
Also because she's the one with adaptability
Methinks need 2nd nidoF and another spearow
Speak of the devil, hello there
Did any of the nidos get buffed
I assume not, at least king is solid
Oh they have adaptability instead of sheer force
Hm
Adaptability and sheer force are roughly equal no?
No
Sheer force is 1.3x to secondary effect moves, and removes effect chance
Also doesn't let you take LO recoil on those
Adaptability is 1.5x STAB
I think I prefer adaptability
Ah, different multiplier
Though I assume the game has competitive items
And conditions
Well it probably turns into 1.333* stab
Not 1.5
Because stab turn 2* instead of 1.5
I guess adaptability works better with physical
One of my favorite waters due to adaptability
Because of EQ
Yeah the cave has krabby or corphish
I'd have used krabby but I already have gulpin, soooo
But physical poison still works with adaptability, and is worse than special poison
You can adaptability special poison as well
Now it's a coinflip for the ability
And you still get the poison chance
You do lose out on ice beam sadly
It's pretty common even if you miss
Rock tomb found
Kingler is water steel
And...no sheer force
So it's probably good as early steel and that's it
Early steel with protect by level up
Which game is this
Poochyenaaaaa
Where do you find it
Bold unaware hoppip
OF COURSE
Yippie
Kinda
Didn't you have an exam?
In an hour
Is it a fan game or rom
Oh if it's playable on phone I should try it
Yes
I'm too used to candying nowadays tbh
Technically fan games are playable on phone too
Oh are they
You do have to grind a bit though sadly
Don't say you need a pc emulator 
I use Joiplay
Water absorb Gulpin
Both abilities aren't bad
Neutral nature
I have a geodude

I'd be fucking dead with a single droplet
Ok, there's a quest that results in a double battle vs explosions
… stopping myself thinking and finish the joke lol
The irony wasn't lost on me either
I think fine
Just means your opponents have 0 EVs
Geodude should survive an explosion
It has rock head
Ouch
But still
Are the 2 starter rats buffed or am I boxing em in a few minutes
Aight
Minun instead went full spatk and speed
Making my -spatk one hurt
But given the 75 65 65...yeah, no
This thing has 120 spatk and speed but it sucks in the defense department
While Plusle straight up is the best supporter
Short list of Plusle moves (with 105 115 115 for defensive stats):
Follow me
Fake out
Knock off
Helping hand
Heal
Heal bell
Both screens
Twave
Baton pass
Volt switch
And an ability to nerf incoming damage iirc
- etrian odyssey
Etrian Odyssey meets Pokémon meets MiA
Btw there's Kitt too
Thanks
Honestly idk how hard hard mode is but this game seems pretty awful to nuzlocke just for the fact that every battle is double battle
Doubles AI is so unpredictable

I'd say double ai is easier than single, but might be my experience
All it's needed is a bait with protect and a safe switch
in my experience its harder to prep vs 2 enemies than 1 enemy
That's true to a degree imo
Like, depending on the AI, you can absolutely pre-damage and bait several things
I'm too lazy to do predamage strats
I did Tate and Liza EK this way - 2 booms, then protect into shadow ball, to then swap into dark type into again shadow ball
I just go with the vibes
That's also a thing
thats why I dont like to try uber hard hacks where you need to plan for every battle
I'll probs never do a EK run
not my style
I do runs for fun but at some point it becomes too much stress

Growth is one of the few boosting moves in EK
Iirc it was the water one
Am I tripping or is it goldeen?
mudkip......
Because I also did another nuzlocke (failed) in the same period, and that was Garbage green

Ok, yeah I picked up mudkip anyway
Treeko is good for a bit and then falls off
chicken goated
I remember early EK people were like chicken unusable
And swampert has stats, typing and movepool to barely get by and always be usable
Swampert unironically helps on:
Maxie
Maxie 2
Basically the magma hideout hell section because protect by level up is a godsend
Wattson
Norman (same deal)
Etc
Sceptile is ok in the rain section and aqua hideout
But know what's way better there? Any fucking fast grass or ludicolo
Swift swim ludi hits like a truck
