The raid one
#other-pokemon-games
sweet crypt
For an explanation, Funbro is a set meant to permanently stall a match for all eternity
And is banned even from AG for being damn good at it
graceful osprey
It's also oblovious
sweet crypt
Leppa Berry with Heal Pulse, Block, Recycle and Slack Off
The idea is to prevent switching with Block
Then endlessly heal yourself and your opponent
sweet crypt
Recovering your PP with Recycle Leppa Berry
And healing them when they Struggle
It's evil
You could theoretically kill a mon with the set
But it was mainly used to infinitely prolong battles
Until the opponent quits
graceful osprey
I'd never quit
sweet crypt
And probably doesn't deserve the name of "Funbro"
graceful osprey
Not fun thing
I found a shiny metang
On sword
Fuck you raid dens
I'm still going for it on my scarlet game
sweet crypt
Use Home to transfer it over I guess
sweet crypt
Then get enough badges so that it will
graceful osprey
That's the only reason I'm grinding eggs
No
Again
Stubborn
Lemme get the egg count
sweet crypt
You don't say
sweet crypt
This is a moment of all time
graceful osprey
This is a moment of all time
sweet crypt
People call Funbro the most powerful Pokemon of all time
But it isn't too different from something like Mega Gengar in terms of power
It traps and KOs Pokemon
The problem is not power
It's the fact that Funbro can prolong your suffering infinitely
It doesn't win games based on power, it wins games based on torture
Competitive Pokemon is meant to be competitive and fun
Funbro's name is clearly sarcastic, as it is the very opposite of fun
graceful osprey
You got a weird way of having fun
Comp pokemon seems stressful and annoying
I'm just gunna enjoy my zygarde
sweet crypt
Some people like thinking and strategising about their teams and moves
I'm one of those people
sweet crypt
That being said put pressure on me to perform well and I'll implode
graceful osprey
Gen 8 hasade this habit or 2 buttons worse
sweet crypt
Because like I said I play for fun
I don't play to win
It's just that strategising and thinking about what move to do is fun for me
Base game doesn't give a challenge
Even the hardest battles can be completely scripted if you learn how the AI works
And once you do there isn't really any fun to be had in completely dumpstering a champion or two
I guess for the first playthroughs before you learn how the AI works it would be fun though
I guess that's why I play randomisers and fangames often, you don't really know what exactly to expect in those since they change fundamentals about Pokemon
Maybe an old Pokemon has a new type, stats or move
Maybe the AI is upgraded
Maybe it's a completely new mechanic
It's nice not knowing what to expect
Oh fuck I ranted about random mildly philosophical views on a children's game again
This always happens

anyone know what the full odds of getting a shiny are in ORAS

anyone know what the full odds of getting a shiny are in ORAS

Anyone here playing Pokémon Sleep?
Bc I just gotta say, being this lucky as soon as you wake up makes the whole day feel great
Just wanted to share how cute a shiny sleeping bulbasaur is
Also if anyone wants to friend me on that game so we both get more candies, that'd be cool
Especially bc of the suicune event coming soon, gotta level up those water types to help

I'm now doing a pokemon blue nuzlocke
Any tips and advices?
I have 2 Pokemon in my team.
unkempt egret
maybe get more if you aren't like right starting?
even then, don't be afraid to throw pokeballs at full health on the earlygame routes
runic canopy
Ok
Pokemon Center is my only friend
Repels and Escape Ropes are allowed
And. . . All set.
BTW my Weedle named Lancelot turns into Kakuna.
runic canopy
Welp. . .
I'm stupid.
I was gonna catch a Pikachu but I forgot that the poison is active.
Dangit Kakuna.
wraith musk
I l9ve zygarde
man istg feels almost overpowered using substitute with zygarde
abusing the ability
graceful osprey
Ha
Hahaha
502 hp
At level 81
What's the shit is Zygarde
I love this thing
Giving it access to substitute was a mistake
So like
Was zygarde man made?
It's it just better mewtwo?
tight granite
its dna
graceful osprey
So
tight granite
its just a collection of cells across the world, forming a being
graceful osprey
Yesnt?
tight granite
there is no yes lul
graceful osprey
Oh
graceful osprey
I mean a mon counter
With like 2 or 3 dragon dances it beats out mega gengar
Granted That's with full speed evs
But that's still huge that it beats mega gengar
You know I had to name it Squishy
And it's in a friend ball
I like how zygarde is just a lil' guy
Then he has the power to take down eternamax eternatus
It's just
Hit me
I dare you
sweet crypt
With like 2 or 3 dragon dances it beats out mega gengar
I feel like you beat the Ghost/Poison type without 2 or 3 Dragon dances
Idk just a gut feeling
graceful osprey
Yea thoudand arrows probably does but like
One shooting is always a better option
And it's like like you cam switch out with mega gengar
sweet crypt
Mega Gengar isn't very bulky
sweet crypt
Zygarde generally struggles with Toxic
sweet crypt
The bulky Pokemon that needs to set up to do major damage struggles with the move that punishes bulky Pokemon the most, wow
sweet crypt
Ice moves obviously put a massive dent in Zygarde
sweet crypt
Zygarde's special bulk isn't very high
graceful osprey
Also true
sweet crypt
But a strong enough special attacker may just instantly KO you
sweet crypt
95 is not higher than 95
graceful osprey
I was thinking of speed
Wait
Speed lowers?
I guess that's fair
With my 502 hp
sweet crypt
Tanky Pokemon can threaten Zygarde with their own attacks whole Zygarde can't threaten them in return
graceful osprey
I don't need 200 speed
sweet crypt
Obviously this isn't the case if they're weak to Zygarde
graceful osprey
Really?
sweet crypt
And have reliable recovery
graceful osprey
Tangrowth?
sweet crypt
They have extremely high physical bulk
sweet crypt
Zugarde can use special attacks but generally you want all your moves
graceful osprey
I wanna see hoe foul play works
sweet crypt
It would
BTW you know how someone was like "it's part of a trio" when you asked for counters?
graceful osprey
Umbreon could probably tank a hit
sweet crypt
High bulk and Fairy Aura Moonblast just destroys it
I wouldnt be surprised if it KOd before Power Construct activated
And don't even mention Geomancy
Since physical Dragon moves are either weak or Outrage, Zygarde generally doesn't run them
Though that does put it at a disadvantage against non ground weak Dragons
sweet crypt
Breaking Swipe isn't very strong so I'd assume most Dragons would be able to 1v1
Doesn't Zygarde get Dragon Claw at least?
graceful osprey
Nope
sweet crypt
Holy shit lmao
Yeah I see why it doesn't run Dragon moves now
Zygarde typically struggles with move choices
graceful osprey
In gen 8 it's kinda worth to run breaking swipe
sweet crypt
And I am just realising Dragon Tail counts as a Dragon move
But like obviously that's more for the utility
graceful osprey
Cause dynamax wyrmwind is 130 BP with swipe
graceful osprey
And I am just realising Dragon Tail counts as a Dragon move
So fun thing
sweet crypt
It also has Glare, Toxic, Substitute, DD, Thousand Arrows as options
graceful osprey
There's no dragon tail tm in gen 8
sweet crypt
Coil+Rest also works
sweet crypt
Zygarde can learn Dragon Tail in Gen 8 according to Smogon
Same with Toxic
So there is a way to get those moves onto it
Maybe TR?
sweet crypt
Why does a 502 ho mon get rest
Rest and Sleep Talk are universal moves
graceful osprey
Yea so
To get it with dragon tail
It needs to go to gen 7
Where it can have the move transfered to gen 8
That's the only way to get it with dragon tail in gen 8
For some reason
And it can't be transfered to gen 9
sweet crypt
I could've sworn people were complaining about the massive Toxic cut
But if you could just transfer Toxic I don't see why you would
sweet crypt
Eh, Glare works wonders anyways
graceful osprey
I run substiute
sweet crypt
100% Paralysis that effects Ground is insane
sweet crypt
Zygarde tends to be DD, Defensive Coil or Scale Shot Coil
sweet crypt
Oh funny thing yknow how strong special moves overwhelm Zygarde
If Yveltal is using its best set (which admittedly isn't any of the ones that can handle Caly-S), it is one of the mons that can beat Zygarde down quickly
So it loses to both other members of the trio
Lmao
Yveltal is the best Pokemon in the metagame though
With a 90% use rate
So that isn't particularly surprising
graceful osprey
I hate the swords in gen 8
Specially getting them
This feels awful
Why 2%
That's so much small shit to find
sweet crypt
Wdym by "the swords"
graceful osprey
Verisipn
sweet crypt
The Swords of Justice?
sweet crypt
OK the first 2 I know are typos but Cobalion isn't spelt right
graceful osprey
Ain't no fucking way terrakians massive stompers are making this smapp of a footprint
sweet crypt
Ain't no fucking way terrakians massive stompers are making this smapp of a foot...
LMAO
graceful osprey
I've never been good with spelling
sweet crypt
I never thought of that actually
I just searched up where they are on Google because I couldn't be bothered
sweet crypt
Also Shedinja is mentioned for Zygarde as well, though it isn't very common and Zygarde runs Toxic specifically for it
Neither is Tangrowth tbf
But Buzzwole is decently seen
Man, I love how Ferrothorn is consistently one of the best Pokemon in both OU and Ubers
graceful osprey
STAY IN THE BALL YOU FAT FUCK

We are one Galarian Rapidash (replacing Toxtricity) from completing the team

lucario predicted gen 5 confirmed?
graceful osprey
Didn't hidden abilities get added in gen 5?
coarse estuary
yep
graceful osprey
Via dreams
Now it's just
Smack a patch on em
I honestly like it a lot more
I'd love to use hidden abilities in gen 5
But I cant
coarse estuary
like i get the idea but the way they do it now is just better. same with the psysical special split pre gen 4 and tms and using items on pokemon pre gen 5
coarse estuary
goated idk

Final team member found! Alright, the full team is: Cinderace, Galarian Ponyta, Copperajah, Runerigus, Drednaw, and Appletun
coarse estuary
w team. but i must ask what is your favorite team youve used in any game and why
sweet crypt
Making curry is tiring
Not too bad for me but I also play rhythm games so it's to be expected
coarse estuary
blissey be like
graceful osprey
I l9ve Zygarde
This is so funny
I just dont die
Unless they have an ice move
Then I jist fold in half
sweet crypt
The 3 Pokemon with the highest HP stats are Blissey, Chansey and Guzzlord
coarse estuary
this is very funny
sweet crypt
That said Zygarde is far better than all of them
sweet crypt
Guzzlord is very cool but man why does its stats have to be so ass
sweet crypt
How is bro eating worlds when its stat spread is that bad
graceful osprey
Max quake raises sp def as you know
So that just
Gets rid of his major weakness
sweet crypt
53 defences 💀
sweet crypt
Dynamax is banned from Ubers btw
sweet crypt
Dynamax is just broken
graceful osprey
Also setting up sandstorm while damaging is dumb
sweet crypt
Who the actual fuck decided Max Airstream should boost Speed and not have lowered BP like Ooze and Knuckle
I am going to debone them
sweet crypt
Ah also about your question as to why Guzzlord has 53 defences
Gosh, I don't fucking know
223 HP but yet you're still only average bulk
graceful osprey
I guess technically it's not a legendary
sweet crypt
It does have legendary-tier BST
570 is similar BST to minor legendaries
Think legendary birds, legendary beasts, Loyal 3, Treasures of Ruin
Legendary Titans
Lake Guardians
Swords of Justice
graceful osprey
Lake Guardians
Ew
sweet crypt
Forces of Nature
graceful osprey
Why are the lake guardians so niche
sweet crypt
Except Landorus he gets 600 BST
sweet crypt
Why are the lake guardians so niche
Because 2 of them are trying to be defensive Psychic types with 0 recovery
sweet crypt
Azelf is in a good spot
graceful osprey
They have nothing
sweet crypt
I love how the being of willpower is an exploding suicide lead
graceful osprey
My main goal is to blow up?
sweet crypt
It's actually a good Pokemon
sweet crypt
My main goal is to blow up?
And to act like it doesn't know nobody
sweet crypt
High speed with Taunt, Hazards, good offences and Explosion is nice
graceful osprey
So 1236 isn't max
sweet crypt
It can also go for a Nasty Plot set
graceful osprey
Hop
sweet crypt
Zygarde-C has 636 HP max
sweet crypt
Meanwhile, Blissey has 651 HP without any EV investment (but max IVs)
Blissey's HP is insane
Who could've seen that one coming
sweet crypt
Blissey however is physically frail
graceful osprey
Endeavor
sweet crypt
Yknow what beats blissey
A wide variety of aquatic lifeforms?
graceful osprey
That too
sweet crypt
Does Chi-Yu even count as aquatic anymore?
Fish are generally aquatic but I'd imagine beads are not
Much less beads that are surrounded by magma
graceful osprey
Ok good
He does have zamazenta
So why does he have 5 mons....
He had a full team in post game final fight
sweet crypt
Where are you fighting him
sweet crypt
Hmm
sweet crypt
Good question actually
graceful osprey
This is how it would feel to have a legendary in the pokemon world
You'd basically be unbeatable
sweet crypt
Most box arts no diff the entire game
Zygarde is on par with box arts in Complete form
So it makes sense
sweet crypt
Both
graceful osprey
In lore its on par with fucking
Etrnamax
It's meant to stop world ending threats
sweet crypt
Is it? I'm not sure about Pokemon lore
sweet crypt
Especially not with extremely varying canons
graceful osprey
Not anymore
sweet crypt
If Zygarde is supposed to protect the world it does a darn terrible job
graceful osprey
True
sweet crypt
Like 90% of Pokemon games have the villain putting the world into peril
Eternal drought/downpour
graceful osprey
I guess it doesn't count that as a real threat?
sweet crypt
Universe Resetting like mf Pucci from JJBA
I think Ghetsis just wanted world domination
graceful osprey
Also games and anime are different
sweet crypt
Lysandre wanted to nuke Kalos
graceful osprey
I wanna see the anime pit 100% complete Zygarde against Eternamax Eternatus
sweet crypt
Idk about the world but Kalos is pretty big
Necrozma wanted to steal the light from the world, I didn't see Zygarde there
graceful osprey
What came first
sweet crypt
That was where it first got Complete form tbf
graceful osprey
The game or anime?
graceful osprey
It should
But I'd jt did
A ten year old would have god
And none of the legendaries would roam
sweet crypt
Why would Hoopa-U be able to beat up fuckinf Dialga and Palkia so hard that they become mind controlled
sweet crypt
Idk if the main character is even fully canon
sweet crypt
I know Red is
graceful osprey
Ggs
graceful osprey
I think...
sweet crypt
Ah well
graceful osprey
Black and white 2 had the mcs
sweet crypt
Ik b2w2 had them canonically exist
graceful osprey
And one of them used a fully evolved starter on gym 1
sweet crypt
I think Cynthia mentioned them
But she's also still champion?
Idfk man
This shit's confusing
sweet crypt
I love how Zygarde Complete has "the power to overwhelm Xerneas or Yveltal"
graceful osprey
How can I have like 6 xernias at once
sweet crypt
And it loses to both in competitive
graceful osprey
In lore complete Zygarde is a monster
sweet crypt
People theorise that each game is a different universe
It sounds stupid but like
Is there any other way to really explain it?
graceful osprey
That's the only thing that could explain it
sweet crypt
Pokemon games aren't known for their good story and lore either ways, it's fine
graceful osprey
Pokemon games aren't known for their good story and lore either ways, it's fine
Take that back
Gen 5 and 9 have a great story
I forget gen 8 had a story
coarse estuary
People theorise that each game is a different universe
well we know thats not true bc people come from other regions to vacation to unova and there is this one rocket grunt in iccurus city that talks about the downfall of rocket from johto
graceful osprey
It's just
Old man throws tantrum about a problem a thousand years away
Causes appocalpace
sweet crypt
well we know thats not true bc people come from other regions to vacation to uno...
Then it happened in that universe as well I guess
coarse estuary
flawed logic debunked
sweet crypt
Either that or catching Ho-Oh/Lugia isn't canon
sweet crypt
Idk, there's multiple Gods of Time and Space we have to explain it somehow
graceful osprey
Hop and yourself 100% caught zacian and zamazanta in canon
sweet crypt
At least Arceus we know has like 1000 "hands" in the form of the Arceus we see
graceful osprey
I like to imagine it's like a slow poke tail
sweet crypt
Would 1000 be Arceus' max though?
sweet crypt
Or would it be logically just infinite
graceful osprey
This girl
Is slownin the head
Yk ow what
I wanna bully leon
I will say
I like Leon as a champion a lot more than Geeta
Cause Leon actually does his fucking job
Geeta dumps her work on literal children
sweet crypt
Leon is like the only champion who tries to stop the big bad
Cynthia kinda just watches you do it
graceful osprey
Why did he use a pokeball
graceful osprey
Alder gets challenged by the big bad
"Big bad"
sweet crypt
Idek if Iris knows what is going on
sweet crypt
Well I guess N isn't really the main villain
That's Ghetsis
Iris' theme makes it feel like she's beating the shit out of you for fun instead of actually taking it seriously
I like that
It's funny
sweet crypt
I like Iris because that's relatable
graceful osprey
A fairy type just invalidates iris
sweet crypt
A fairy type just invalidates iris
Not quite
graceful osprey
And her full dragon team
sweet crypt
She does have an Aggron
graceful osprey
She does?
sweet crypt
You really think they'd make a Dragon specialist with a full Dragon team in an older gen?
Lol
wraith musk
as there were only 4 useable lines
sweet crypt
Ykw good point actually
sweet crypt
I love how Drayden canonically 1v1s Haxorus to train it
I'm pretty sure the game says that
Not to train himself no
graceful osprey
Drayden is that guy
sweet crypt
He 1v1s his Haxorus to train the Haxorus
graceful osprey
Why don't they have items
I guess cause this isn't battle tower?
I feel like bracket fights should have held items
sweet crypt
Also Drayden is alive during the events of SV
graceful osprey
Yea
sweet crypt
So that's cool
sweet crypt
Grandson
sweet crypt
Drayton
sweet crypt
Bro's really just one of the best trainers in the academy without even trying
graceful osprey
Deal with it
I love how chill he is
Minus when kiwi loses
He rubs salt in that wound
sweet crypt
A little bit of trolling
graceful osprey
We do a bit of trolling
sweet crypt
Honestly the main story of Drayton is that he saw you arrive to the academy and decided at that point that it was time to troll Kieran
sweet crypt
It's pretty funny actually
graceful osprey
In his own way he wanted to help him
With was
Us beating his team up
To help him snap back to his senses
Amd realise he's not that guy
sweet crypt
I guess partially
But it's definitely partially because he also wanted to say that line
sweet crypt
Kieran actually could've KOd Caly-S
But he decided to yknow
Not target it with Sucker Punch
And instead target Koraidon with Sucker Punch
graceful osprey
Genius
sweet crypt
??????
You're a Fairy type use the Fairy move
I was kinda just expecting Light Screen/Reflect
Luckily he fumbled even worse than I did because it's Pokemon AI
Anyways Calyrex swept that one
I really need to redo that DLC
I was expecting something extremely sweaty with what I was told
Anyways on the topic of SV's DLC
Can wr just talk about how undeniably evil Raifort is?
Like bro she isn't even trying to hide it 💀
Jacq is cooked, bro's about to get sacrificed
sweet crypt
Like ngl I kinda respect Raifort for being so evil without even trying to hide it
I just need to know how nobody suspects her yet
sweet crypt
The history teacher
She literally tries to use you for her own gain to free the Treasures of Ruin
sweet crypt
She also straight up admits she doesn't have a pure heart
Right before giving you Nasty Plot
graceful osprey
She's hot
sweet crypt
This is so amazing holy shit
graceful osprey
So she gets away with it
sweet crypt
She also nonchalantly talks about stealing artifacts from museums and graves
And she's also about to sacrifice Jacq (the teacher guy who's basically the actual professor since Sada and Turo don't fill that spot much)
graceful osprey
The nurse is the best staff member in the academy
Partly cause she's hot
Mostly cause she had a goal
And she achieved it
Ultra beasts unlocked
Oh
Necozoma is actually in the picture
In the hint
It's just so small you can't tell without zooming in

not the originals something fun
well for fan games there is spork and hidden place and africanus and opalo and xenoverse, and for rom hacks there is crest and moon black 2 and unbound and prismatic moon
coarse estuary
the only reason n has "shit" mons is because if his ideals he only uses mons when he has too so anytime you fight n he only uses mons you can find in the immediate area then releases them after the fight

He uses mons found in the general area as his gimick iirc. I think the implication is that Plasma had them prepared for N or something

I don't know the ultra beast types

Buzzwole: Bug/Fighting
Nihilego: Rock/Poison
Xurkitree: Electric
Celesteela: Steel/Flying
Kartana: Steel/Grass
Guzzlord: Dark/Dragon
Poipole and Naganadel: Poison/Dragon
Blacephalon: Fire/Ghost
Stakataka: Steel/Rock
sweet crypt
Can I just rant about something
So we all know Vileplume is based on the Rafflesia
Not only does it look like one, but the dex entries mention that Gloom smells terrible
And the rafflesia is known for smelling like rotten flesh
Here's the thing
Not only are Rafflesia non poisonous
But they're also edible
And they are parasitic plants, completely reliant on stealing nutrients from other plants from having no chlorophyll and thus being unable to undergo synthesis
Vileplume has both Chlorophyll as an ability and Synthesis as a move
graceful osprey
No ice....
sweet crypt
TLDR: Vileplume is a fraud pretending to be a Rafflesia
graceful osprey
Who else is ice aside from articuno?
sweet crypt
Who else is ice aside from articuno?
Regice
graceful osprey
Hes not in raid dens
sweet crypt
Iirc yeah
graceful osprey
sweet crypt
But you need to go to some guy in the Fighting/Ghost city
And get them along with other legendary specific items like Solariser from a random NPC
graceful osprey
Triple axel is so stupid
graceful osprey
It's great for so.eone like zygarde
sweet crypt
Tbf it's basically 120 BP 70% accuracy
graceful osprey
Does it not always hit 3 tjmes?
sweet crypt
No, each hit has a seperate accuracy check
sweet crypt
Unlike most multi hit moves where they always hit all/have a seperate function determining how many times it hits apart from accuracy
graceful osprey
I guess that's fair
Sewing how it ramps up in power
Does loaded die bypass this?
sweet crypt
It's a 72.9% chance to hit all 3 if I did the math correct
sweet crypt
Does loaded die bypass this?
Not sure, but Ice types would prefer HDB
And some may even go Choice Band
graceful osprey
Hdb?
sweet crypt
Heavy-Duty Boots
sweet crypt
It may perhaps be the best held item in the game
graceful osprey
That's valid
sweet crypt
It's definitely up there
graceful osprey
Stopping all entry hazards is great
sweet crypt
It turns defensive types that one may consider shit like Fire/Flying into an actually great defensive type
Because the biggest weakness of that type are the sneaky pebbles
Rock types are otherwise uncommon
And if they exist they're Garganacl or a suicide lead
graceful osprey
Salt cure low key broken?
sweet crypt
In Gen 8 there was Ttar
But no Garganacl
So it evens out
Especially since there was also no Glimmora
brisk hedge
Purifying Salt is like 3 abilities at once
I bet people are pretty salty about that
sweet crypt
Halves Ghost damage, makes you immune to all status
brisk hedge
I’m not sorry
sweet crypt
I bet people are pretty salty about that
badum tss
OK I need to stop typoing
But yeah people are pretty salty about it
graceful osprey
I could care less
It's a pile a salt
Just splash jt with water
Isn't it's special defense bad?
sweet crypt
Just splash jt with water
That's where Terastalisation comes into play
sweet crypt
Isn't it's special defense bad?
No not really
graceful osprey
I forget about tera
sweet crypt
The special bulk is 100/90
sweet crypt
Since the physical bulk is 100/130 it can afford to invest more into SpD
Which makes it just very tanky on both ends
sweet crypt
Simply Salt Cure+Recover
sweet crypt
It's definitely a slower playstyle
graceful osprey
My boy?
sweet crypt
And in casual things are easy enough for you to click button and win
graceful osprey
MY GOAT
graceful osprey
And in casual things are easy enough for you to click button and win
Exactly
There's a small chance
A very slim chance we win this
Honestly
I might shiny hunt you
I hate my fucking life

I FUCKING HATE AI
sweet crypt
Oh
Ai trainer moment
I think between my 6 favourite Pokemon (Latios, Lunala, Volcarona, Ogerpon, Chi-Yu, Scizor), I dislike Ogerpon's shiny (unreleased anyways), Volcarona's is eh for me, Scizor and Latios have decent shinies and Lunala and Chi-Yu have amazing shinies... but I prefer the base colouration anyways

Weavile looks less like a weasel than Chien-Pao
Weavile is slower, weaker, has less BST, is less weasel-like and is less cool than Chien-Pao, while having a similar stat spread, role, and even the exact same type
They don't joke when saying Chien-Pao is Mega Weavile, huh?

Most of these are objective
The "less cool" part is subjective tbf
The rest is fact, unfortunately
Have you seen a weasel IRL?

Don’t care, you still insulted my boy

Don’t care, you still insulted my boy
Chien-Pao is simply too broken for Weavile to keep up
What can I say?
Weavile is still a great mon
It's just that Chien-Pao isn't just great, it's broken

Yknow the guy who was top 1 and 2 at RandBats at the same time once, is a skilled Singles player in general and also got runner up for last year's VGC worlds?

yeah as i said i wish i had cool ones. i mean if you count my full odds shiny magikarp i got in an old heart gold nuzlocke
sweet crypt
My shiny luck is horrendous and I'm very impatient
sturdy sparrow
never got a golden boy
coarse estuary
yeah the only 2 shinies i own are full odds random ones
sturdy sparrow
still respectable
coarse estuary
i will say though despite it being a bad shiny i will always hold the full odds galv in my heart as super special as galv is my 2nd favorite mon of all time and on my favorite playthrough team of all time

Anyone Wanna help me with my Snaplocke. Need pokemon banned. It's blaze black and all of gen 1 has already been banned. So anyone from gen 2 through 5 , I need 110 more bans. Not asking you to give all of them. I'll tell you if any you select is banned. One pokemon on a line bans a whole evo line btw
graceful osprey
Why are Leon and Mustard allowed to team up
Mustard teaming up with anyone is a crime
graceful osprey
Mustard js a threat
Pair him with leon
The only other kinda threat in the game
And we have an actual danger
I have a level 100 Zygarde and I'm almost losing
wheat pebble
That's Cynthia levels of danger
wheat pebble
Is it a nuzlocke?
graceful osprey
Scarey*
No
It's not
I'm not used to steamrollong everything in gen 8
Anything challenging is a shock
wheat pebble
Cuz I'm currently snaplocking blaze black and still need suggestions for 109 more pokemon
wheat pebble
So I'm asking different servers to ban until I have 325 mons banned
graceful osprey
Rng wheel with dex numbers?
wheat pebble
And uh. Throughout the servers they already banned all of gen 1
wheat pebble
Nah lol
graceful osprey
Yea I'm joking
Uhhh
How many grass types you got left?
Why was grass the first that....
Whatever
wheat pebble
Idk I'm just making a list of everything that's banned
graceful osprey
Uhhhhhh
Can I just
Delete a type?
Say
Dragon types
No more of them allowed
Granted that's not many
wheat pebble
Nah. I'm doing individual Evo lines per the rules
graceful osprey
Ok
Uh
Can I ban the elemental monkeys?
All 3 and their evos
Granted the only one that really matters is simisage
The other two are kinda meh
wheat pebble
Those have already been snapped in another server lol. Someone just snapped away rotom and it's forms
wheat pebble
Nope
wheat pebble
Just the gen 1 and leafeon
graceful osprey
No fun for you
wheat pebble
Damn
graceful osprey
I'm sorry
I can't think of anything else
Beside it'd happen eventuallt
I feel bad
Eevee and it's eeveeloutions are so fun
Are any of then actually good?
Like viable
I just run umbreon cause I love umbreon
wheat pebble
Need a tank? Umbreon. Need high damage? Flareon and Leafeon
Need speed? Jolteon
They all are good in different eays
wheat pebble
I'm talking base stats not after calcs
All the eeveelutions have the same base stat values just switched around to different stats
unkempt egret
incidentally it's also impossible to raise umbreon's special attack stat that high in any gen, the highest it'll go is 240 assuming optimal conditions on everything.
but yea in-game all of them are viable to some extent though flareon and glaceon might take a bit more work and for leafeon you're probably better off using tsareena if it isn't gen 9 (or you banned Z-moves/tera)
looks up* blaze black, not sure if they've been changed at all there.
sweet crypt
OK so both Gyarados and Blissey are already banned?
Fuck
Those would be my first 2 choices for banning
Since those 2 are insane and would make things far easier
Clefable would've been nice to ban as well due to Magic Guard
But speaking of Magic Guard
Ban Reuniclus
Or rather, the entire Solosis line
No Magic Guard allowed
Or Overcoat, or Regenerator
And maybe also Garchomp because it's just a strong Pokemon all around
graceful osprey
Guard swap
Or whatever it's called
I think it swaps my def and atk stats
Sp as well
So like
sweet crypt
Wait actually hold the phone
Has anyone banned Shedinja or Excadrill
Wait actually there may be entry hazards since it is a romhack
So ykw yeah actually forget Reuniclus, forget Garchomp
I'm banning Excadrill
Actually maybe Salamence?
Intimidate is crazy
And Salamence is pretty versatile
Physical with Dragon Dance
Special going off that 100 SpA isn't bad either
You can run mixed since you cant just find an optimal nature for either stat
But I feel like Salamence might already be banned?
And it's obtained at like level 50
I'm gonna say Excadrill or Salamence, if neither are banned Excadrill takes priority
But if you allow multiple bans I ban both lol
unkempt egret
I know I banned shedinja for being cheese in my runs rofl
but that's just a me thing and I've banned other things most people consider fair like the 600 BST pseudo-legends and slaking
