Maybe blast and cannon moves as well? Unless I'm forgetting something that would be super op
turbid horizon
No I mean it could to make it better, it's not got a lot of diversity overall
Less than similar abilities
turbid horizon
I draw MY line at terrain pulse
dull crow
clawlitzer can learn it
turbid horizon
I'm down for anything but that, hate this move
All my homies hate terrain pulse
They scrapped return and added that?
dull crow
it is again literally just weather ball ut terrain
maiden pivot
- can give some mons interesting covetage
turbid horizon
But mah return
maiden pivot
All terrain stuff works if user or opponent touches the ground
dull crow
separate issue epoch
turbid horizon
The only good move for physical normal types
dull crow
double edge
maiden pivot
Return was too good
turbid horizon
I wouldn't call double edge good.
maiden pivot
Very powerful with enough PP and no drawback
turbid horizon
Yeah but it's got no super effectiveness
dull crow
body slam
maiden pivot
I'd nerf Moonblast just a bit, maybe 5 power points away
Or even 10 but fairies don't have much variety
dull crow
scald level paralyze chance
turbid horizon
Not awful, to be fair
maiden pivot
Body Slam is nice
turbid horizon
But I still don't think return was too good
turbid horizon
It was maybe busted with abilities like pixilate
maiden pivot
Extreme Speed is amazing but with a good drawback of very limited movepools
turbid horizon
extreme speed
Extreme speed is mostly good on non normal types as far as I'm aware
maiden pivot
I like Facade a lot
dull crow
megakick is still 120
turbid horizon
I can't think of a popular normal type that uses extreme speed, I know Arcanine and Dragonite see a lot of use with it
Scrap that
Linoone
dull crow
multi attack 😛
maiden pivot
It's not like I dislike Return and Frustration, I just... Eh, I never missed them that much to be fair
turbid horizon
I miss them because they served to make normal types which aren't naturally strong somewhat usable
cunning parrot
I can't think of a popular normal type that uses extreme speed, I know Arcanine ...
maiden pivot
Removing them forces you to use more interesting options
dull crow
rapid spin
turbid horizon
Maybe on strong normals
maiden pivot
Rapid Spin recieved a really nice buff for singles
turbid horizon
But I want normals like Stoutland to be somewhat better
And what options do you have outside of return for Stoutland? Crunch?
cunning parrot
Those are the only normal types that learn the move, Arceus and the normal Zigzagoon line
turbid horizon
can he learn double edge?
If you want him dead in two turns
Stoutland did decent damage with Return, it's not tanky enough to use other stuff
maiden pivot
I find it more interesting to use Double Edge or Body Slam than just a plain strong move
dull crow
just dynamax him, no recoil
maiden pivot
It's like Scald vs Surf in singles
I like watching fun battles 
I'm an audience, give me some action
turbid horizon
Using weak normal types and actually doing damage is more interesting to me than them possibly paralysing an opponent
cunning parrot
I like when they use Pokemon other than ones like Garchomp and Landorus T
maiden pivot
Double Edge still exists
dull crow
facade too
maiden pivot
With recoil, yes, but at least you have to think if you want to have it over Body Slam
Facade is really fun
turbid horizon
Facade works well on specific Mons with specific setups
maiden pivot
I like when they use Pokemon other than ones like Garchomp and Landorus T
Even tho I really like Primarina, like, a LOT, I hope gen 9 won't have Alolan starters cuz I'm sick of Incineroar

regional incineroar, (sprigatito)
maiden pivot
Yea I don't dislike Incineroar, it just presents in most of the doubles teams
turbid horizon
I appreciate diggersby, it's a decent Pokémon
dull crow
Yea I don't dislike Incineroar, it just presents in most of the doubles teams
run something with defiant or contrary?
maiden pivot
I'm afraid to lie here but I remember something about 70% of usage in VGC doubles format
maiden pivot
run something with defiant or contrary?
People use Incineroar not JUST cuz of intimisate
turbid horizon
Incineroar is famous for its ability inseminate
maiden pivot
I didn't say "not because", I said "not just because" :P
dull crow
thats not the part they were commenting on
turbid horizon
I like Incineroar cuz of smash but I kinda resent it for being better Scrafty
Disrespecting my fucking boy
turbid horizon
He does and it's actually a move I really like on it
I think that's a cool move for it to have
maiden pivot
- he's defensive
- with good defensive typing
- with Intimidate, yep
- with amazing supporing movepool (Fake Out, Parting Shot, Burning Jealousy, I probably forgor something)
- and it can actually hit, unlike some suppors
It's too perfect as a support mon and I don't hate it, I just wanna see more variety when I watch and try teams in VGC
There will always be some meta and different rulesets can deal with it but Incineroar is one mon that I wosh don't present in gen 9
turbid horizon
What I will say about Incineroar is, as overused as it is, I think it's one of the most well executed starters to date because the way it plays perfectly encompasses what it is
maiden pivot
Yea, it's very well executed
turbid horizon
It's a wrestler, so it hits hard, makes enough sense, but more importantly it's the Heel, the bad guy
A semi-support Pokémon based around pissing off and weakening your opponent is perfect for what it is
dull crow
There will always be some meta and different rulesets can deal with it but Incin...
monkeys paw, its not there but theres a more annoying intimidate mon
turbid horizon
As someone who didn't like it from the get go due to it feeling like another Fire/fighting, it's easily my favourite gen 7 now. Don't enjoy Decidueye. Too slow for what it is.
maiden pivot
So let's overpopulate the Pokemon world with bad tiger guys and see what will happen 
maiden pivot
monkeys paw, its not there but theres a more annoying intimidate mon
Landorus isn't as annoying in VGC doubles, but it is in singles
turbid horizon
What's funny about Landorus to me is that the form that gets complained about the most is its weaker state
Because the other one actually got banned
maiden pivot
I really liked the early seasons of gen 8 VGC and that one season that banned top 10 mons from each format
They had much more variety cuz not all mons sucked compared to legendaries and Incineroar 
maiden pivot
More rulesets for different seasons!
I don't know if I want stuff like spooky competition to last the whole month cuz it allowed just a few mons to use but it was so fun
dull crow
Ban all but 151 different Pokémon every once in a while
ban og 151 because gen 1 favoritism
maiden pivot
I wish they have something like that more often and in VGC doubles format, not just as competitions for a few battle points
It's so silly but funny
turbid horizon
They could do like
Only elite 4/gym leader Pokémon allowed
That'd be neat
Because some of those are good
Others are ass
maiden pivot
Miltank 
maiden pivot
I also like that fan competition thing that I forgot the name of
Where each person picks 1-2 mons from each showdown format that can't be repeated between different people and makes teams based on what their current opponent picked
Like, you have your 15-20 mons including really weak stuff, your opponent has 15-20 mons, and you have to think which 6 mons with which movesets they can bring against you and what you can bring against their possible team. It's really fun
What's this thing's name damnnn
WBE! I remembered!

This is actually a decent set lol
5 of my Pokémon were knocked out in a Doubles match once, and with a Special-oriented Tapu Fini with Muddy Water, Protect, Wish and Moonblast whilst holding Leftovers (I think), I was able to win the match with just that Tapu Fini. 😄

But like
The 25% sturdy chance is cool
fair maple

subtle elm
Honestly I love the friendship mechanics
the issue is them being mandatory
west needle
I think friendship mechanics are a dumb
cunning parrot
I think they work fine for Pokémon who need friendship to evolve into their final form since it’s basically like you’ll have the Pokémon in your team throughout the whole game so their friendship will raise and you’ll still be able to battle with them, but it’s terrible for baby Pokémon since they’re so weak you’re never gonna want to use them in battle and so their happiness will raise much slower and you’ll just be stuck with a useless Pokémon for a large amount of time
Also it’s always been dumb that GameFreak adds new evolutions to expiating Pokémon and thinks they have to add some new evolution methods to get them to explain why they couldn’t evolve in past games
rain quarry
I assume that by the mention of the 25% sturdy chance, they're talking about those bonuses you get when you do the Pokemon Refresh and stuff, which would be the Affection stat. I believe Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee merged friendship and affection into a single stat or something too
cunning parrot
Yeah, they did since that’s how Sylveon is obtained now
And that’s dumb too because now it’s just certain that the game will get a lot easier as you just play normally, as if SwSh needed to be even easier with that stupid exp share always on

The reason why I hate friendship is because it

shell steeple
It didn't
turbid horizon
People have weird views on what Pokémon are basic
Saw someone say Machoke and Machamp were basic favourite Pokémon to have but praised people who have Mew and Blastoise as favourites
Like
I'd put Mew 👌 just above Pikachu in terms of basicness
Because it's one of those Pokémon even non Pokémon fans like
Everyone with the basic understanding that Pokémon as a concept exists knows what Mew is or has seen it before
shell steeple
Pikachu is definitely above Mew
People who don't know what Pokémon is know pikachu
Blastoise is a sleeper pick unless you're a gen wunner, but the macho bois aren't
slow ferry
Blastoise is frequently overshadowed by the flying fire lizard in terms of G1 fully evolved starters and has limited availability owing to being a starter, while the muscle bois have had regular appearances throughout the franchise.
turbid horizon
Yeah but it's a gen 1 starter, all gen 1 starters are pretty damn basic. I'd say being a trade Evo makes you a less basic favourite than being a starter
I reckon more people have used Blastoise than Machamp full stop
winter marten
if someone asks you what your favorite pokemon is, stare them dead in the eyes and say wobuffet. it's the only way to win.
steady edge
All starters are as basic as you can get, gen 1 especially lol
ember panther
Blastoise used to be my favorite mon because of its Blue boxart being amazing
crude isle

Why you would do that

Why you would do that
for fun and to surprise people

Although I don’t play the official games anymore since they are kind of boring alone and nobody want to play competitive
Also showdown exist, tho

glad to see you appreciate the design too, I honestly like it way more than the pre-evos. then again, gen 1 in gen-eral ba-dum tiss has some of the more... unorthodox designs
winter marten
Guzma's basically just a normal dude in a role usually taken up by wannabe world erasers that are usually made of cardboard

Guzma is what we get when the pokemon world doesn't put its trainers on a weird pedestal

Wasteman Guzma
Guzma's music is awesome
Honestly him and Ghetsis are my favourite of the series' villains
winter marten
if game freak hired character writers like they hired musicians, maybe there would actually be more than like... 3 memorable villains in the whole series
rain quarry
That is true. Something that I think they consistently get right is the music in their games
winter marten
so many amazing themes throughout the series. the music was basically the only thing that let me suffer through sword and shield without resorting to playing ORAS for the 99th time
finite prism

winter marten
some sort of type swap fangame?
I've only tried infinite fusions, I'm kinda nervous to get any others because my laptop is a potato and a single malicious file will kill it.
winter marten
i see. if y'all know any trustworthy fangames I should try, just tell me! imma go to sleep now, feeling particularly braindead if I do say so
turbid horizon
Guzma and Ghetsis are great villains for completely different reasons
With Guzma it's like "this guy is so likeable and easy to sympathise with, you can understand why he becomes a villain when you start to see the implications of his childhood"
And then with Ghetsis it's like "this guy is FUCKED UP and EVIL. He has BAD VIBES."
Friendlocke made me like him even more because Salty voiced him with a Plankton impression and it just...
It fits too well.
winter marten
ikr
why does plankton ghetsis work so well?
I now believe that any pokemon villain can be improved with the addition of a SpongeBob voice.
turbid horizon
why does plankton ghetsis work so well?
Green, one eye, menace
winter marten
this makes me think that squidward Cyrus might actually make the character more than human cardboard
turbid horizon
They have the same fucking expression oh my God
winter marten
WAIT WHAT
turbid horizon
CYRUS AND SQUIDWARD I SWEAR THEY HAVE THE SAME RESTING BITCH FACE
It's not the best 1:1 comparison
winter marten
this is the greatest discovery of all time
turbid horizon
Krabs works for multiple people. Lysandre is rich and red, but Giovanni fits the personality more because he's kind of just a dick
winter marten
I imagine Giovanni more, tbh
turbid horizon
That's because Giovanni is also just a dick
winter marten
plus, lysandre's already rich, Giovanni's a lot more easy to imagine trying to get boatloads of money
turbid horizon
Yeah but he already owns a pop up castle
WHICH IS NEVER FUCKING EXPLAINED
Ultimate weapon, it's a relic, makes sense it's just there
Other villains rely less on physical places, but ones that do have reasonably sensible secret bases or some sort of machine. Sometimes a tower.
GHETSIS JUST HAS A CASTLE UNDER THE ELITE 4
winter marten
yeah, that's uh... never heard of that until now
suppose lysandre makes more sense in that case
waitwaitwaitwait
turbid horizon
IT POPS OUT OF THE GROUND WITH LIKE STEAMPUNK MACHINERY HOW THE FUCK DID HE DO THAT
turbid horizon
Oh fuck sake
Nvm
I've been thinking of Ghetsis this whole fucking time
I want to fucking die
turbid horizon
*Giovanni is squilliam fancyson*
But with that in mind I am absolutely behind this
Cyrus has the Squidward scowel but we've seen Giovanni with that shit-eating evil grin that Squilliam has
turbid horizon
ORAS Archie was such an upgrade
winter marten
oras Archie and Maxie are some of my favorite designs
turbid horizon
When you see the artwork of OG Archie he just looks so out of place compared to ORAS
Black suit(????) Thing?? Just a blue bandana???
winter marten
it actually highlights the differences between them, their original designs just kinda blended together for me
turbid horizon
ORAS Archie looks like he'd be constantly wet because he was just in the ocean
Original Archie looks like he'd be constantly wet because he's a very damp man
winter marten
he refuses to use surf, he swims everywhere on his own
turbid horizon
Original Archie is the type of guy you shake hands with, then your hand feels wrong and you have to wipe it on your jeans
Just a sweaty dude
turbid horizon
ORAS Archie could turn you inside out
But instead he chooses to use his power to try and flood the world
winter marten
oras Archie shoved oras Maxie into lockers in high school and it shows
turbid horizon
ORAS Archie looks like a guy who gets loudly excited when he spots whales
winter marten
he looks like he wanted to summon kyogre just so he could see the lord of all whales
turbid horizon
ORAS Archie looks like he'd run at you sometimes to approach you, and it's not clear if he's about to beat your ass
winter marten
scenarios like this are why I've always wanted to abridge one of the games
turbid horizon
Ruby and Sapphire ROM hack where not much is different but every time Archie approaches your character he does so from further and further away
winter marten

ORAS Archie throws bigger and bigger rocks into the ocean for the hell of it
turbid horizon
Maxie looks like he invested in crypto or NFTs at some point and lost hard
The irony there being that that probably increased the sea level more than anything
winter marten
Maxie unironically says "uhm, ACTUALLY-" when someone gets something wrong
I mean, does the pokemom world have polar ice caps?

turbid horizon
Poke Antarctica is actually Hisuian Avalugg from PLA, it continued to grow and eventually integrated into the existing glacial landscape

I'm convinced they do it just because of an argument they had that both of them were wrong about, they just REFUSE to back down.

Probably, that feels pretty likely

Honestly the large-scale impact of the other legendaries makes me appreciate Ghetsis' plans because sure he had the separate people and Pokémon thing but like
At the end of the day that was just to aid in his actual intentions
Which were literally just take over Unova then the world I Guess???
Like Zekrom and Reshiram aren't fucking

pokemon villains are just crazy
turbid horizon
"I'm going to alter time so that I'm king of the world!!"
Or "I'm going to rebalance the food chain to create a new, perfect world for pokemon"
rain quarry
Or "I'm gonna kill everyone because they'll be happy that way"
turbid horizon
Zekrom and Reshiram are "this is a big fucking dragon, and it's going to help me be Super President"
winter marten
in hindsight, krabs would actually be a great pokemon villain
"why did you steal all those pokemon?"
"money!"
simple, straight to the point, nothing too stupidly high-stakes
I also love how throughout this entire conversation about villains rose has just been straight-up excluded
turbid horizon
I've maybe realised what I like about the Ghetsis scheme actually
Other villains use the box legends as like... A big machine, or a tool to do something large scale instantly?
Ghetsis uses the box legendaries like a big gun he found
turbid horizon
I also love how throughout this entire conversation about villains rose has just...
That's because his plan his stupid and he's stupid and ugly and stinks real bad/hj
winter marten
Ghetsis uses the box legendaries like a big gun he found
perfectly summarized
Rose is a literal joke of a villain
turbid horizon
Ghetsis, about to impale Rosa/Nate using his new Ice Dragon: up yours, woke moralists! We'll see who cancels who!
turbid horizon
God this conversation is hilarious but also makes me sad
How come?
winter marten
it reminds me that the upcoming games are probably gonna have a bland retread of the same darn trope, evil dude who wants to either send pokemon into the future or the past depending on version
turbid horizon
(also sidenote: the fact that PETA made a parody game of Pokémon about the generation wherein the evil team pretends to care about animals, steals said animals from their owners, and then abuses them is 👨🍳👄👌)
turbid horizon
it reminds me that the upcoming games are probably gonna have a bland retread of...
I dunno, I personally have hope
I think it's easy to not be hopeful based on the main series, Sword and Shield was pretty weak
winter marten
all things considered though, after we saw the gigachad professor I at least have high hopes on the other designs
the villain might be bland, but they'll at least look neat
turbid horizon
But PLA's story was actually pretty solid. As memeable as it can be, I really did enjoy the different characters. I even like Commander Kamado, which may not be a popular opinion. Honestly people expect the supposedly good characters to be too sensible and moral about their decisions.
Volo was done in a really interesting way, and pulled off Twist Villain in a way which entirely undermined Chairman Rose's attempt
winter marten
I zoned out for the entire story except for the part with comically small clay
turbid horizon
Fair, the game plays differently it's very easy to shut off your mind. Blessing and a curse.
I stand by defending Kamado though idc that he betrayed us for a bit
shell steeple
Zekrom and Reshiram are "this is a big fucking dragon, and it's going to help me...
He wanted to either achieve total ying or yang depending on the version
Breaking the ancient order
turbid horizon
Imagine your home gets destroyed, your wife is killed (not stated but implied heavily), you set up in a new place, get on surprisingly well with the locals despite basically showing up with a ton of refugees
Then you're faced with the slight issue of the giant fucking sky rift, the horrible eldritch abominations which show up in the time-space murder domes
And a child which suddenly landed in your lap and solved all that for you
I'm not saying he wasn't wrong turning on you after you helped
But I am saying if I went through all that shit?
I would also probably try to find and violently attack God
Kamado is just that straight-faced guy who's at his fucking breaking point and can you blame him?
winter marten
nope, just kinda stupid to kick out the guy with a bunch of giant pokemon
turbid horizon
Plus like you're what, 15, and can tank a direct hit from an alpha Garchomp when much smaller and weaker Pokémon have maimed many Galactic Exploration Team members?
I'll be honest I wouldn't fucking trust us either no matter how much they helped
In PLA you are a sky demon
You are a horrible monster who catches gods and barely speaks

turbid horizon
one's a solid type combo and the other is my favorite type combo
Both are very strong defensive typings, which whilst strong on H-Qwil(eviolite)/Overqwil who may be able to act more tanky for Pokémon with lots of setup potential, is SUPER good on a Pokémon with illusion because it means Zoroark now has way more opportunity to set up
I'm so excited for it

Eviolite dark/poison type qwilfish sounds terrifying

my favourite shiny I caught was a shiny alpha raichu during a distortion mainly because I didn’t even know it was shiny until like 30 minutes later
winter marten
then I caught a shiny oddish in the post-game
turbid horizon
I did my "catching all Pokémon" and my "all Pokémon research to level 10" at the same time because I thought both were necessary for Arceus and on one day while I was doing it I caught a shiny Machoke and a shiny Bibarel within 30 minutes of one another
It was a very green event
winter marten
my greatest catch in that game is still my shiny alpha drifblim
turbid horizon
Plus I obviously did my share of shiny hunting before the original was patched
Went through the game with shiny Sneasler
turbid horizon
Yeah honestly some are disappointing
Then you have like shiny Octillery
Who's just way bigger

You'd have a whole area which is basically a big ass crater

Ooh... DS romhacks...
fair maple
any suggestion on hacked rom with wild mega pokemon?
turbid horizon
They screwed up so hard with Coalossal. Should have had it keep steam engine, have steam engine negate water damage but only boost speed by 2x or something instead of maxing it out.
If it could be immune to water that would be huge
shrewd furnace
But it does keep Steam Engine?
turbid horizon
But it does keep Steam Engine?
Oh yeah I thought it swapped it for something
But that's how bad an ability it is on it
shrewd furnace
Yeah it just makes no sense.
Fire boost is whatever, but if it gets hit by water-anything it will not get faster, it will instantaneously combust.
Nevermind the fact it has a base speed of 30.
turbid horizon
Nevermind the fact it has a base speed of 30.
At base, steam engine brings it up to 180 speed 😐
Who thought that was a good idea?
At that rate you could have steam engine max out speed AND give immunity to water and it STILL wouldn't be strong

Colossal should have been a train. Not a lame furnace.

Why would it become a car, they don’t run on coal like some trains do
Not anymore Carcoal looked like it was going towards a car more than a train
And cars had steam engines too, even if coal ones were rare

Pretty sure the "car" is from "cart"
Because it's a minecart.
Which would be more of a train cart than a car.

Yeah, idk if you can say they "robbed" us of a car mon if he was never gonna be a car
Like, turning that line into a car and then a train would've felt weird
The train evo itself would've been awesome though
shrewd furnace
Imagine a car Pokémon that can evolve with the Magmarizer/Electirizer into a hotrod/smartcar.
rain quarry
That'd be pretty fun

You mean the mine cart?

anyone know some other good fangames/pokemon-like games i should try? already tried temtem, nexomon, and coromon, and nexomon was the only one I really enjoyed of that bunch.
winter marten
as long as none of them feel super similar to either coromon or temtem, I'm fine

Wonder how viable eviolite Ursaring is
Couldn't possibly justify not having quick feet active
But in doubles it could be scary shit

Pokémon Xenoverse.
winter marten
imma check it out, hopefully I can find a safe way to download it... my computer's a potato and a single virus will kill it
is the weedleteam download the safe one? it's what I was linked to on the wiki.
shrewd furnace
Weedleteam is the one who made the game, so likely yes.
winter marten
got it to work after having to make exceptions for so many files because my anti-virus hates games developed by non-english studios, apparently.
shrewd furnace
Hm, weird.
Hope you end up enjoying the game.

Pixelmon?
winter marten
tried it, it doesn't feel the same when you Don't have any friends to play it with
turbid horizon
Pixelmon also suffers from not having an upgraded ev training system
I need to mine and shit now to, I don't want to EV train in Minecraft ffs

Btw, have you been able to play Xenoverse?
I hope I am not too intrusive but I always care about hearing what people think about the game.

I mean alolan meowth gets fur coat so its not the most busted thing in the world
rain quarry
Alolan Persian's defence stat kinda sucks though. Charizard getting this ability is like giving Machamp Huge Power, lol
subtle bridge
but this is from a randomized abb playthrough
most likley this was given to regular persian
rain quarry
Ye ik, what I'm saying is Charizard having that ability is amazingly strong
subtle bridge
true
cunning parrot
A fangame gave a strong Pokémon an overpowered ability? How unexpected!
subtle bridge
nah man, radical red is pretty balanced
winter marten
currently trying pokemon insurgence, the ability to turn off the edgy is amazing
cunning parrot
It's still edgy, just no blood and death
rain quarry
Yeah the traditional story just feels weird, the game was definitely tailor-made for the blood and stuff
shrewd furnace
I assume mods are used?
