[normal cave]

@warm sky

[warm sky]

rare model accurate hex maniac.

[pseudo goblet]

Hah

[sonic inlet]

can't gengar just float above the water

[normal cave]

yeah if she's that willing to trade away her gengar then gengar can do better

[pseudo goblet]

sure you try fly above pool next time in a swimming contest

[obsidian juniper]

I wonder what you need to do to qualify for certain trainer classes

[normal cave]

gengar can phase through matter, it can swim through the floor

[obsidian juniper]

Like, doed the pokemon leagur hand out licenses

[pseudo goblet]

prob just people doing their hobbies

[normal cave]

probably for some classes like ranger, nurse, etc

[pseudo goblet]

if Im out there Im probably collector or Poke Maniac

[normal cave]

jobs that require training

[pseudo goblet]

https://tenor.com/view/james-pokemon-malewife-cute-kawaii-gif-25090462

[obsidian juniper]

I imagine acr trainer also has some kind of requirement

[pseudo goblet]

Wish I treat my stuff like James do

[fading stratus]

I'm thinking a mega charizard x team for first format

zane

ig it depends on if ZA online is doubles or singles ig

[pseudo goblet]

[fading stratus]

[pseudo goblet]

Ayo perfect frame

Oh wow cross chop only done bit more than half

Okay, wasted his fire z

Really should start Groudon sweep

Might need Leppa berry

... TIL Groudon is faster than Braviary thx to max speed

[fading stratus]

braviary has like 60 base speed vro

[pseudo goblet]

Tf

[fading stratus]

oh its 80

hisuian is the one that has 65

80 isnt that fast either

groudon naturally has 90 base speed

[pseudo goblet]

Groudon runs faster than birds flying

[fading stratus]

https://tenor.com/view/get-out-groudon-pokemon-kyogre-meme-gif-15823408130104846009

[normal cave]

weezing toedscruel rain

[pseudo goblet]

Magnezone

Tf I do

Hope its sturdy and only electric attacks

Surely it doesnt know water

Okay sturdy, thank god

Percipice blade ran out tho

[normal cave]

why are you happy that it's sturdy, it doesn't get levitate iirc

[pseudo goblet]

HA no?

[fading stratus]

dude woulda 2-0ed lost game 2 to 2 fissures

lmfao

[normal cave]

no

it gets sturdy/analytic/magnet pull

[pseudo goblet]

[normal cave]

it learns magnet rise

[pseudo goblet]

whose the steel type I think has levitate then

[normal cave]

bronzong

[pseudo goblet]

other than Bronzong

[normal cave]

[pseudo goblet]

ninetales last tho, should be w

[fading stratus]

bronzor

[normal cave]

no other steel type gets levitate

only the bronzor/bronzong line

[pseudo goblet]

[fading stratus]

chingling gets steel types in some fan games

[pseudo goblet]

alright, 15 pokemon done

so much more to do

[fading stratus]

I just saw 4 fissures hit in 2 games holy shit

[mighty storm]

btw the mega raichus weren't on the leaked list

likely because of them being in the DLC rather then main game

[fading stratus]

yeah the dlcs werent in the teraleak

we do know ||there are 2 dlcs tho from the leak if its true||

[pseudo goblet]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-pokemon-legends-za-legends-za-malamar-malamar-pokemon-gif-965430918291052820

still the cool one

[fading stratus]

its pretty cool yeah

[pseudo goblet]

it really does jab its own brain

[pseudo goblet]

dont have too many interesting picks left

Probably this

after this Im probably picking two strong pick to level up with to sweep easier

[fading stratus]

just make a lv100 groudon

[pseudo goblet]

https://tenor.com/view/whitebeard-annoyed-one-piece-young-edward-newgate-gif-20832679

Idk why, simply dont like the idea

[fading stratus]

make a lv100 dialga

[pseudo goblet]

Been like this since I started playing Pokemon

Having them maxed level

[fading stratus]

ah

lv 95

[pseudo goblet]

That would be acceptable

for some reason

[ashen barn]

@sonic inlet

[sonic inlet]

Nice

[mighty storm]

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G0usHoTXkAAP6Pc?format=jpg&name=large

👀

[fading stratus]

its probably flygon

[long stone]

If flygon gets one

Milotic will too

[pseudo goblet]

idea, all starters gets one

[mighty storm]

Mega Incineroar with a second kind of intimidate that triggers when it enters or when it megas

[pseudo goblet]

maybe just sp atk Intimidate

you can stay normal or go mega, fun with open sheet

[long stone]

Ya know... imagine Mega Hoopa

[pseudo goblet]

poor Volcanian

[long stone]

I think he definitely getting one too

[pseudo goblet]

I only ask for shiny

[long stone]

I feel like Volcanion will get an X/Y megas

Magearna is also possible

[pseudo goblet]

Magearna is gen 7

[long stone]

Yeh but we already have non-gen 6 megas here

Ya know what would be silly but fun as a mega

Naganadel

Imagine it flipping back...

[pseudo goblet]

why would it, we didnt get malamar going non evil after mega lol

[dapper summit]

Is manaphy better than gyrados

[pseudo goblet]

in what context

[dapper summit]

I'm playing renegade platinum and just got it

And saw it's total stats were a clean 600

[long stone]

Not in that sense

Also malamar just becomes a giant M

The M mega...

[pseudo goblet]

Inkay flip, Malmar couldve flip again, but nope

[fading stratus]

manaphy and gyarados serve different purposes in teams

they arent comparable

[pseudo goblet]

https://tenor.com/view/misty-pokemon-gyarados-gif-21588524

[fading stratus]

also regardless of bst this isnt even that good of a spread

[dapper summit]

Mew energy

[warm sky]

I mean, Manaphy's power always came from being able to tail glow tbh

[fading stratus]

I'm just saying this because they said manaphy must be better than gyaraods because it has 600 bst

[warm sky]

Like it was OU until gen 9 I think

[pseudo goblet]

https://tenor.com/view/manaphy-sleeping-manaphy-flight-no-more-battles-gif-23118370

[long stone]

Like this

[pseudo goblet]

[fading stratus]

where's ma boi's hamma

[pseudo goblet]

One shoulder blade becomes axe, what if two makes hammer

I kinda want them move down to its arm

I like arm blades, dont know if they re practical, dont care lol

No buddy ever talks about Chesnaught’s Chlorokinesis, it be cool its weapon can actually shape into anything

[fading stratus]

[pseudo goblet]

Brain going wild with Chesnaught using Leaf blade, Solarblade, Wood Hammer

[shut loom]

Stumbled onto this on my recommended, and this video is most likely about the game not having that much water compared to the land or maybe the other games or smthg.

[swift jasper]

I mean the island region should have water

[shut loom]

I just wanted to say as much as people clowned on IGN for this. They are 100% right. I remember one of my earliest memories of playing Pokemon being Constantly surfing/diving in Sapphire to the point of being miserable and quitting and playing Fire Red instead.

[kind vortex]

the video

anyway it's a fairly reasonable take, he doesn't just harass the article writer or anything like that

[twin shard]

I still have the gen 3 surf theme stuck in my head

[hasty anchor]

I think it's less the quantity of water, and more how open-ended a lot of Hoenn's oceans are

Before, most of the seas are just a straight path

Doesn't help that one route was just an absolute mess of a maze involving currents that are impossible to push against.

[dapper summit]

Shiny unown D caught

[mighty storm]

the mega dimension trailer is causing so much speculation 💖

(and the leaks didn't cover the megas in the DLC)

BABY PACK!

what Im missing of the main stuff

still no playset on entei though, only got the one entei

wonderpick

[dapper summit]

I just looked at some images online

Is pokemon blue, red with a blue filter, or does red use a red fulter also?

[mighty storm]

flygon?

[magic thunder]

||Decidueye||

[mighty storm]

also we thinking mega hoopa may happen?

Certified VGC bullying moments

[fading stratus]

Good for her honestly

[pseudo goblet]

Brutal

[fading stratus]

Was the bastiodon also encored yozz

[fading stratus]

you should also learn to be as good as yozz

you need the grind zane

[spice rivet]

Yup lmaao 😂

Also, starting my Violet + DLC playthrough and this is a real hydrogen bomb vs coughing baby moment

@pseudo goblet

[pseudo goblet]

Doing it for the flash

Still thinking about buying Violet, and ZA

[spice rivet]

Still need to decide on my Violet playthrough team. I avoid repeating mons even accross gens, and since it obviously has the DLC I plan on adding 1 Kitakami and 1 Indigo diskon to the team atleast

[pseudo goblet]

They knew its better for everyone do raids for the raidons but no

[spice rivet]

Honestly, you dont need to buy Violet at this point

[pseudo goblet]

Why

[spice rivet]

Assuming your budgetting $$$

You'll need to save some of that money for Beyblades too

[pseudo goblet]

Forgot you re in there as well lol

Honestly… kinda

Some of the rare beys are TOO pricey atm, next sets are random boosters and, well, the stadium set

[pseudo goblet]

Btw would the raidons OT be the players

[spice rivet]

We dont know at this time, I'm assuming no though

[pseudo goblet]

Oh dw btw, I aint fucking buying black color phoenix for A THOUSAND CASH

[spice rivet]

I need to import the remakes of old Beys still one of these days.

[fading stratus]

did you figure out if you can gurantee get a shiny korai/mirai zane

[pseudo goblet]

Who the heck is Arthur and Lancer

The brothers??

[spice rivet]

I assume theyre references to King Arthur and Lancelot

[fading stratus]

yeah I think so too

[spice rivet]

Fate Grand Order joke here

[hasty anchor]

Man, everyone talks so much about Excalibur

But come on

[fading stratus]

https://tenor.com/view/soul-eater-anniehasleftoop-gif-20457390

[hasty anchor]

Arthur's spear, Rhongomyniad was pretty cool too

[fading stratus]

the goat excalibur

[pseudo goblet]

Oh definitely scripted OT, same ID

[hasty anchor]

Just to remind people: Rhongomyniad is the Xyz monster that was threatening enough to be forbidden, not Heroic Champion: Excalibur

[pseudo goblet]

Man had a spear? Lol

[hasty anchor]

Well, it's kinda hard to stab someone on horseback with a sword all the time

Also it's not even magical like Excalibur, it's just a very nice spear he liked

[pseudo goblet]

I assume Yozzoy had to visit four different stores

Havent found the time to… ya know what

@mr.ducky mind I bother you for a sec??

[fading stratus]

oh so yozz promised to get for you

[pseudo goblet]

Wth

@waxen moat

edit just so easy context, Ducky theres an event with shiny legendaries in stores, Australia is one, think you can visit some stores for me??

Discord being weird

[spice rivet]

I only have 1 EB Games, but honestly so few people ask for the codes usually, I'm hoping they'll just give me a few if I ask nicely.

[pseudo goblet]

Assuming the new hire worker isnt being a prick

[spice rivet]

Also obligatory since this is a Yugioh server

[pseudo goblet]

Retail does things to you man

[spice rivet]

[fading stratus]

[hasty anchor]

Noble Knight lore actually is mostly accurate

to the Arthurian Legends

The only outlier is Lancelot is mostly alright, with a few screwups and moral failings

[spice rivet]

I'll try to get as many spare and after my own and Zane I can offer them out to people (Assuning I have any extras. Will keep ya'll in the loop)

[hasty anchor]

But here he really is just the big bad instead of Mordred/Medraut

[fading stratus]

goodluck yozz

[hasty anchor]

If you notice, a lot of the knights that end up going against Arthur in the myths in the end are monsters that are either DARK attribute, or become DARK attribute.

[pseudo goblet]

Again, THANK YOU AS ALWAYS!!!!!

[hasty anchor]

[Noble Knight Medraut]

[jovial goblet]

Noble Knight Medraut

LIGHT • Level: 4
[ Warrior / Effect ]

ATK 1700 / DEF 1000

Effect

This card is treated as a Normal Monster while face-up on the field. While equipped with a "Noble Arms" Equip Spell, this card becomes an Effect Monster with this effect.
●This card becomes DARK and its Level is increased by 1. Once per turn, if you control no other monsters: You can Special Summon 1 "Noble Knight" monster from your Deck in Defense Position, except "Noble Knight Medraut", and if you do, destroy 1 Equip Spell you control.

F/L Status: Unlimited (TCG/OCG/MD)

https://tenor.com/view/my-hero-academia-boku-no-hero-academia-anime-mha-bnha-gif-17532278

Cant do this living dex shit without you!

[spice rivet]

We already know the the best version of Arthurian legend anyways

[hasty anchor]

Noble Knight lore is cool for this reason, and they actually tied the lore in so well with how the series even plays

[hasty anchor]

Yes

[fading stratus]

I havent played the game sadly

[hasty anchor]

Also shockingly accurate to Arthurian Legend

[pseudo goblet]

Us young peeps

Also, kinda poor country

[hasty anchor]

It's hack and slash action mixed in with the usual Sonic gameplay

[fading stratus]

poor country doesnt matter when you can pirate

but yeah

[hasty anchor]

Also the music slaps

[pseudo goblet]

Bold of you assume I had pc at that time lol

[spice rivet]

Its worth setting up on dolphin if you're ever bored.

Also it has one of if not the best writing for Sonic as a character and is still used as a major baseline for his personality.

[pseudo goblet]

Wii came out like what, 2007??

[spice rivet]

2006

[fading stratus]

gotcha I'll try it if I ever bother setting up dolphin

[pseudo goblet]

2006?

Okay

[hasty anchor]

A right shame they ran out of stories to adapt after trying out this, and the 1,001 Arabian Nights

[pseudo goblet]

… man I thought of Wii pokePark and compare to Pokopia, not too much difference

Just way more chill

I mean, I doubt Darkrai is taking over the world in Pokopia but who knows

[hasty anchor]

Playing as Ditto just makes it more relatable compared to Pikachu

[spice rivet]

https://youtu.be/HAIKn4PiYfM?si=7y8SepbqO7hnNgdd

Speaking of Wii and Pokemon

Highly worth a watch

[hasty anchor]

Ooh

[pseudo goblet]

I need a wii

[hasty anchor]

...I keep forgetting that Wii did in fact have their own take on Box RS

[spice rivet]

Actually this video is about the first Pokemon Rumble game

[hasty anchor]

-Oh, ah

Well, that'd be a good watch!

Rumble was nice

[spice rivet]

https://youtu.be/5z2_GKzMRcM?si=enGj-1BhxCka6EDX

Heres another very good video on My Pokemon Ranch though!

[hasty anchor]

...What was there to hate about a storage app lol

[spice rivet]

Gaming Journalist moment

[hasty anchor]

Seeing all the mons just walking about, interracting with others was cool

[spice rivet]

SirToasty also has a 24/7 Ranch stream

[hasty anchor]

oooh

[pseudo goblet]

I asked my cousin for his skylanders stuff and hes able to give me unbox Chill(character) and Sypro adventure starter set, xbox 360 btw

Asking for full on Wii would be over stepping

[spice rivet]

https://www.twitch.tv/ourpokemonranch?sr=a

[pseudo goblet]

Idk if that name have zesty vibe or manly vibe

[spice rivet]

Pawn Shops/2md hand stores will likely get them in since the Wii was so popular if you have any nearby. Theyre usually cheap too

[pseudo goblet]

Never seen one in Malaysia lol

[hasty anchor]

Well I know what I'm gonna watch all day lol

[pseudo goblet]

Retro Gaming is that sad here

[spice rivet]

Oof

[pseudo goblet]

At least I never tried hard enough

[spice rivet]

If postage to Malaysia is reasonable, I honestly could keep an eye out for you here too

[pseudo goblet]

Maybe I try find one, planning to visit arcade for Pokemon Mezastar, maybe theres one retro game store

[spice rivet]

Sounds good, keep us posted! Anyways. Bed time now. Night ya'll

[pseudo goblet]

Oh right lol, again, thanks man

[fading stratus]

goodnight yozz

sleep well

[spice rivet]

One last unrelated sidenote: If I do stop being lazy and build a Reg J team, Im totally playing Grimmsnarl with Misty terrain for the Darkrai match up because it would be so funny in Bo1

[pseudo goblet]

Bolt is Zeraora in SV

If not, I only have Meloetta for SV

[fading stratus]

probably is

since its legal in smogon singles

oh not zeraora

I'm thinking the monke

zeraora isnt

[pseudo goblet]

Blasted

[mighty storm]

this gives you a free mew btw

[pseudo goblet]

Meloetta isnt that good I imagine

[mighty storm]

also a free phione

I'd imagine the masuda hunters got their mew back in DP days through her

[pseudo goblet]

Google not being much help

[waxen moat]

What stores?

Going outside

[pseudo goblet]

Iirc EB gamestore for Australia

[pseudo goblet]

I already asked Yozzoy with Canada, Im just doubling my chances https://game8.co/games/Pokemon-Scarlet-Violet/archives/550655

Never heard of the store btw

If Ducky got the code we could have Yozzoy redeem it without me buying Violet

[fading stratus]

[pseudo goblet]

I think Choccy is the other Violet player?? But, spicy switch lol

[fading stratus]

choccy is also brazillian

so there's no way he can get you the codes either

[pseudo goblet]

Different process

The problem being I need both games if I want both legends

[fading stratus]

the problem being you need violet for KORAIDON

[pseudo goblet]

Exactly

Really hoping the OT is scripted

Speaking of LGBT characters, Beauty Nova should get a reference in ZA

[icy heath]

[mighty storm]

The game only takes like a few years after X/Y so there is a chance

But yeah my profile pic is of Wednesday's werewolf roommate in Netflix's Wednesday

[mighty storm]

WONDERPICK FOR THE LAST CARD I NEED FROM SET

[dapper summit]

I decided to give heart gold another chance

[dapper summit]

The pokemon choice are horrid in gen 2, unfortunately, and imo

[dapper summit]

One could argue, gastly looks better than gengar

[tacit sphinx]

Yoz they have a Bastiodon this is mean

[normal cave]

And a Miraidon

[fading stratus]

its master ball

so there's no excuse

yozz is also on scale shot dnite

which is very uncommon

[normal cave]

Scale shot encore

Friendnite

[fading stratus]

btw bruial

the team I said a while back

is 10-0 rn

I was a prophet

this one

[normal cave]

Dnite...

Dopamine dragon...

[fading stratus]

dnite is literally the best mon of the format

alongside ghold

frosmoth is 9-1

espathra is 9-1

sableye is 9-1

yesterday's team is 8-2

slaking is 8-2

rotom wash is 8-2 as well

this team looks pretty cool hope it tops as well

it apparently won last gc

[normal cave]

Ofc it's cool it's a snow team

[fading stratus]

its not a snow team

it just happens to have ninetales

its just that ninetales has good MU against a lot of stuff like dnite rilla and stuff

[normal cave]

Disable double ice stab

And no Veil

That is a spicy Atails

[fading stratus]

not really

its standard

most ninetales probs dont even play veil

Pien Chao

[mighty storm]

I just learned one of my favorite magic youtuber's favorite pokemon

[pseudo goblet]

Huh

I thought both equal amount of fan, ig Delphox wins

Unless, certain group of people mixed in

Not sure if I want Chesnaught get an op ability, or thick fat but for flying type

[outer eagle]

Gren definitely has the most fans, but its mega form is pretty whatever

And people preferred Ash Gren anyways

Delphox definitely has more fans than Chesnaught

[pseudo goblet]

Even I have to admit Ash Greninja looks pretty meh

[outer eagle]

Mega-Greninja is almost indistinguishable from just upside down regular Gren

[pseudo goblet]

Well pre mega definitely, I thought both megas stroke peoples heart

[outer eagle]

Well yeah but having more baseline fans translates to more potential fans of alt forms in general

People aint objective beings after all

[pseudo goblet]

Can I just say, mistake typing Delphox in tenor lol

Im surprise they didnt do Greninja X and Y

[outer eagle]

Only gen one mons have the priviledge

[pseudo goblet]

Mega ZA starters still not shown but if no such thing, this is XY duo starters all over again but worse

[outer eagle]

As popular as Gren was, it is still a new gen mon at the end of the day

[pseudo goblet]

Again, fuck the company abusing my fomo

[outer eagle]

Especially given GF's complete eradication of Ash-Greninja from history

It's more likely for us to get Mega Clefable X and Y

[pseudo goblet]

That seems busted

I was gonna say that seems busted

Then I remember supporter mega reputation

[outer eagle]

Baseline Clefairy is still the most broken one anyways

[pseudo goblet]

Mix probably? Idk clef that well

[outer eagle]

Maybe this

It's yellow and black

Could be heliolisk

Tbh I'd prefer a regular evo

[pseudo goblet]

Yea yea evo first, mega later

Although goddamn, Sunstone THEN a screw ya ass evo method

[warm sky]

481 isn't that high of a bst

But tbf I suppose heliolisk doesn't have terrible stats

109 speed and special attack

+20 to both defenses
+30 speed / special attack

[pseudo goblet]

Huh, for the stuff like, idk Bug normal, rock normal, they could just copy Heliolisk

AT THIS POINT LIZARDS IN POKEMON IS JUST NORMAL, WAIT HOLD UP

[warm sky]

Now you've got
62/72/114 bulk, meaning you can take special attacks

And then insane damage and speed

The real question is what ability

Solar power, sand veil and dry skin suck

[pseudo goblet]

Cyclizer, Kecleon, Heliolisk, wait did I crack the method to easily solve the unused normal type combo

Bearded lizard pokemon, come on GF!

I kinda want pill bug for normal bug

Ig gotta wait for gen 10

[pseudo goblet]

Also do we want to give it dragon like most people want

Volo jumpscare hello

What did I missed

[warm sky]

No

It's more sun related, if anything replace normal with fire

And give it fire moves

[pseudo goblet]

Wait have we not got electric fire yet

[fading stratus]

just give it punk rock and overdrive and hyper voice

[pseudo goblet]

Also, scratch lizards to reptiles, Dunsparce

Which kinda sounds dumb

‘Earth dragon little brother’

I've seen people guess like everything

realistically if you guess a bunch you're bound to get atleast one right

[vocal torrent]

Put everything in each basket to at least get one

[dapper summit]

What's so great about umbreon?

Stats seem well rounded

I didn't get/screwed up and didn't put confuse ray

Unless gen 4 just didn't have many good dark types, between it and houndoom

[fading stratus]

Umbreon in general is a very good defensive Mon

It has really good stats

Reliable recovery options

It gets stuff like toxic foul play

[dapper summit]

For a while its only atk was bite which kind of sucks and it learns dark pulse eventually but I grew to hate it

[fading stratus]

And in renegade platinum specifically umbreon singlehandedly solos the ghost gym btw

[dapper summit]

I was thinking about replacing it with garintina

Also I'm running gyrados and blastoise

And while I like both, running two water types seems excessive

Blastoise knows yawn which is op

Also I beat famina(?) on the first try which was supposedly the hardest gym

[fading stratus]

Do you mean fantina

[dapper summit]

Yes

[fading stratus]

It's hard if you're playing a nuzlocke

[dapper summit]

This is my current team 33 hours in

also 3 gyms

[fading stratus]

No wonder you beat fantina easily lol

Over levelling does fix hardness for most fights

[dapper summit]

I was relative at the time iirc

I had alot of trouble at the mansion against the old man and team plasma commander though

[golden lance]

I like contests as a concept but was never too fond of the execution

[warm sky]

Doesn't help they never perfected the formula yeah

oras contests were the worst ones

[hasty anchor]

Contests were nice.

Definitely impractical to juggle between it and taking on the league for most though, but I am glad OmegaRuby/AlphaSapphire tweaked it a bit

...Well, I say "tweak" but mostly, it was making it far easier to train up on condition, and stuff that was just introduced later down the line than anything else

The concept was really cool!

Dear god i didnt realize juat how bad the movesets would be

Half of the hoenn dex relies on hidden power for stab

Mons gets no coverage outside of tms which are mostly banned

Actually that's fair, but I'm in the boat thinking it's alright for trainers to do this

[tacit sphinx]

It seems unsustainable

[fading stratus]

rom hacks has existed ever since like rom hacking tools were made

[fading stratus]

even then there were bunch of hacks

[golden lance]

the original comic and most people's play thrus was about that yes

run & bun was designed to be more mechanical in its nature tho

[hasty anchor]

Nuzlocke culture has shifted from that, which is a bit disappointing

[fading stratus]

you dont have to be disappointed in what others do

nuzlocke are about you

[fading stratus]

idek what it means

[pseudo goblet]

What? You played MC too didnt you?

[fading stratus]

I'd try a soul link but probs not because our times just dont match at all

[pseudo goblet]

We all did, in realm

[fading stratus]

and I play games whenever I like

[tacit sphinx]

i did but like only because i was paying for it

[pseudo goblet]

MC minecraft

[golden lance]

Like the gameplan pretty much hands you a degree in chemisty and engineering by the end of it

[pseudo goblet]

Dwai

[golden lance]

Bc it actually uses irl processing steps and stuff

Up to and including making rocket fuel from scratch

[pseudo goblet]

Did you not enjoy the builds

[hasty anchor]

Insane as it is, the modpack is very well put together.

[tacit sphinx]

FUCK I’M STILL PAYING FOR IT

[hasty anchor]

I just can't for the life of me get well into tech-related stuff. I'm always just gonna be the adventuring modpack person

[tacit sphinx]

GOTTA GO

[golden lance]

Imma be honest its the best modpack ive ever played and i do recommend it if you're even remotely close to liking that sorta thing

[pseudo goblet]

Wait what????

[hasty anchor]

Well if I ever get better at using tech stuff I'll give it an honest try

[tacit sphinx]

I FORGOT TO CANCEL IT

[golden lance]

Ooooooof

[pseudo goblet]

You did cancel it tho right????

At first

Dang I couldve visit my realm house any time between this

[golden lance]

Btw @fading stratus i'm FUCKED

[fading stratus]

oh why?

[golden lance]

Bc my coverage is so limited i need to find a ton of ways to deal with hax

[fading stratus]

haxorus?

[golden lance]

Like, evasion spam, curselax, ohko moves

Crocune

The way ppl usually dealt with this is like explosion and toxic but those of those are on non renewable resources

[hasty anchor]

Believe in yourself!

...Or alternatively, yeah, Toxic or Explosion

[golden lance]

Btw symph

You saw my ruleset yea?

Just to check

[hasty anchor]

-Oh, uh, nope

[golden lance]

Aight to summarize

[pseudo goblet]

Omg Raz

Nearly 2 years

[tacit sphinx]

don't

i don't want to know

just let me cancel it

[pseudo goblet]

Quickly

Also calmly

[golden lance]

All hoenn battle frontier gold symbols

I cant use the same mon on 2 or more facilities

0 ivs
Ev spreads must be 252/252/6
No one time only tms/move tutors
No glitches
No trading

[hasty anchor]

Ahhhhh

Oh, no IV's, that'd be rough

Is getting Scott's respect worth it, though?

[golden lance]

Scott? This is for me

[hasty anchor]

Ah yeah

[golden lance]

I attempted this 10 years ago

[pseudo goblet]

Sidenote, damn I really do miss that world, so many needless builds

[golden lance]

And never finished

[hasty anchor]

Who cares about that guy, anyways?

Here's hoping it goes well!

[golden lance]

Oh yea one more

No legendaries

(in practice thats just latios and the regis)

[fading stratus]

I mean latios is very good

and registeel is probably pretty good as well

[golden lance]

Registeel is ok ish

Apparently ppl found more success with ice

[pseudo goblet]

By me I mean, the underwater train, enchanting room, the fricking tower

I have a problem okay

[hasty anchor]

I just now learned that Meditite can't be found in Emerald

WHAT

[golden lance]

Yea...

Neither is lunatone

[pseudo goblet]

Is this like, the same shit as Gliscor cant be obtained in DP???

[hasty anchor]

Yeah, I knew Lunatone and Zangoose can't be found, but Meditite?

[pseudo goblet]

ZANGOOSE?????

[hasty anchor]

I'm still sore from knowing Mareep isn't found in Crystal, and then I learn this

[pseudo goblet]

Nonono Meditite is one thing, BUT ZANGOOSE???

[golden lance]

Its to "compensate" emerald having the version exclusives

[pseudo goblet]

https://tenor.com/view/what-cartoon-shocked-gif-12201045

[golden lance]

So that you still needed to own ruby and sapphire to get a full dex

(or the gamecube games those also work)

But rn i'm mostly seeing how awful the gen 1 tms are

https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/List_of_TM_and_HM_locations_in_Generation_I

Like look at this

[pseudo goblet]

Yeah uh, I know I shit talk on modern tradings, but, god bless

[hasty anchor]

Ok, well, aside from that screwup of having missing mons in Emerald

[golden lance]

Why would you make a tm

With a move only 1 mon can learn

[hasty anchor]

I think most new stuff in Emerald is like

[golden lance]

O N E

[pseudo goblet]

I never seen anybody play on Gameboy stuff here, I only seen it ONCE

Same goes for that one PSP kid, which is within last week

[golden lance]

Like poor move variety and low bps across the board i can forgive since they didnt know what they wanted tms to be yet

[icy heath]

https://tenor.com/view/happy-anniversary-gif-6529547734443524150

[golden lance]

But TM41 is some BS

[hasty anchor]

Hoothoot, Spinarak, Mareep, Aipom (lol), Sunkern (lol), Gligar, Snubbull, Stantler, Wooper, Remoraid, Ledyba (lol), Pineco, Teddiursa, Houndour, Miltank, Shuckle, Sudowoodo, Smeargle, Meowth and Ditto

[golden lance]

Like damn mew really needed that recovery move

[hasty anchor]

...I dunno if Meowth is usable since it's something you need to trade for and may have IV's above 0, but it's a thing

[golden lance]

I'm allowing breeding

[pseudo goblet]

https://tenor.com/view/meowth-pokemon-jojo-pose-red-gif-10112531060678267952

Anybody getting jojo vibe

[golden lance]

Discord's really a fan of duping gifs today huh

[pseudo goblet]

Try 3 days iirc

[hasty anchor]

Ah, ok

[pseudo goblet]

Not even my fault

Maybe 4???

[golden lance]

But yea i'm looking at the gen 3 movepools

Everything gets really shallow without tms

[tacit sphinx]

Because tutor didn’t exist yet

[pseudo goblet]

Can you trade tms while holding them

[golden lance]

It wasnt good with them either bc salamence still needed to run HP flying and the like

[tacit sphinx]

The funniest part of gen 1 is that most Fighting mons use S U B M I S S I O N as their stab

[golden lance]

But it helped

[tacit sphinx]

No

[hasty anchor]

Well, at the very least you got Ditto, which should make things easier

[pseudo goblet]

Shit

[golden lance]

You can

Guess what i banned

[hasty anchor]

...Man I wish Submission was better

[tacit sphinx]

Gen 1 has no held items

[pseudo goblet]

Wait which is it

[hasty anchor]

It's got such a cool japanese name

[golden lance]

No trading

And no one time items

[pseudo goblet]

Even just tms??

[golden lance]

Yes

[pseudo goblet]

Welp

[hasty anchor]

Wait, are TM moves still passed on via breeding?

[tacit sphinx]

Choccy why are you doing all this though

[golden lance]

1 cartridge and a dream

[hasty anchor]

Or was that something introduced later?

[golden lance]

Because i feel like it

And i want to do it

[hasty anchor]

There is a mountain and his name is Scott

[pseudo goblet]

We asking the guy that plays GRINDING the mod

?

No offense btw

[golden lance]

None taken

I quite enjoy the process of optimization

[hasty anchor]

-Oh, right

You can get Chikorita, Cyndaquil or Totodile in Emerald, I realized

[pseudo goblet]

How come I never seen them in gen 3 plays

[golden lance]

The requirement is just completing the hoenn dex

[pseudo goblet]

At best maybe Feraligatr because only the, uh, the meme

[golden lance]

All 202 mons

[hasty anchor]

-Oh, right

So, unobtainable

[pseudo goblet]

Ah

Btw was the feraligatr sprite gen 3 or gen 4

[golden lance]

3

[pseudo goblet]

Ah

[fading stratus]

caked up croc

[golden lance]

They do but only the father's tms before gen 6

[pseudo goblet]

There it is

[hasty anchor]

Ahh. Well, still possible!

[pseudo goblet]

Huh

[fading stratus]

sexism

[golden lance]

6 onwards its both parents

[pseudo goblet]

So not just egg move, tm can pass down too, neat past feature

[golden lance]

You would like to hear more about how DVs work

[pseudo goblet]

I did not enjoy breeding Buneary with all 3 elemental punch during Brick Bronze days btw

[fading stratus]

sure

[pseudo goblet]

Weird I remember it just now but~~

[golden lance]

DVs are the gens 1-2 equivalent of IVs

You probably know that

The way genders were determined in gen 2 was via the attack DV

0-7 is female, 8-15 is male

[pseudo goblet]

… wait isnt IV a gen 4 thing?

[golden lance]

IVs started on gen 3

[void herald]

ivs have been a thing since gen 3 yeah

[pseudo goblet]

The whole shtick with Paul

[pseudo goblet]

Ahhh

[golden lance]

But the whole hidden stats thing was a mechanic from the start

[pseudo goblet]

So pokemon saw Gen 3 players and ended up making Paul

[golden lance]

The exception is gender exclusive mons ofc

[pseudo goblet]

Wow easy guess much?

Wait wtf they do with no genders then

[golden lance]

The DVs still work the same

But they dont determine gender because there is no gender to determine

[pseudo goblet]

So, even more hidden lol

[golden lance]

Btw, DVs were also how unown forms were determined

This meant that some forms were exclusive to some genders

DVs also determined shinyness

[pseudo goblet]

Reminded how only I and V Unown can be shiny

its just perfect

[golden lance]

Which also meant running a shiny pokemon was a detriment to a comp team

But that also meant

That in gen 2, breeding with the guaranteed shiny gyarados gave you pretty high odds of a shiny offspring

And you could chain those eggs together

And get an easy 70 ish % of the dex as shinies

[pseudo goblet]

Or Ditto
