Ok so we got to hearthome and I'm conflicted on whether to keep Dusty in the main battle team for a while longer or to start getting her ready for contests
Bc moveset needed will be quite different
proven geyser
so you find dustox to be a productive member of the battle team, or is she just kinda sitting there?
had to do some shit first but on my 4th sr my fennekin is again female, making my ratio 50/50
but if dusty isn't a productive battler, you can safely swap her to contests
i know bugs don't normally do very well in battling

Not sure if it's been posted yet but from what I can tell some of the most accurately filled info on the leaks of what the Sinjoh ruins symbol means
proven geyser
it has, and is very suspect because a lot of things are either missing, have no equivalent, or make little sense
my personal thoughts is that it's an early try at the pokemon mythos before it stopped being connected
that's it
as of unova, but especially as of kalos, the legendary connections have ceased almost entirely, and this wheel is just a relic of when they tried to keep things connected, and before they finished all the sinnoh mythicals and legendaries
tbh im sick of seeing this stupid summoning wheel
tho in my annoyance on seeing it constantly, i didn't quite process the full statement, and i do agree it's a graphic for the concept of the ruins wheel's signifigance, but has since been scrapped

doesn't help that in plat you're really cut for anti-ghost options

proven geyser
special split exists by then, ye?
simple quartz
unkempt egret
in gen 4 yea
proven geyser
i was checking defenses
SE isn't the issue if your options are nil, staraptor line is physical, and magius base phys defense is aids
unkempt egret
yea the first dark STAB you get is bite at level 29... on eevee
...and fantina caps at 26
proven geyser
a STAB flying hit could do it
unkempt egret
you can go flash and debuff your way to victory by sending out something that resists grass afterwards though togetic can do that too
also yea something like 65/65 for physical defense
the best it can do is hit you with confuse ray psybeam
proven geyser
anything with physical STAB and good special defense, plus persim or lum berry item should help
this thing is the OG flutter mane, bro literally had the same spread but more minmaxxed
unkempt egret
I think when I was doing plat I flash debuff'ed to victory with togetic lol
I wouldn't say more min-maxed, it's the third step of evolution but just exists on its own
(65/85, 65/105, 65/135)
proven geyser
very true tbh
magius' lower stats are only 60 across, actually
special and speed are all 105
unkempt egret
60 that's what it was
unkempt egret
oh huh flutter's actually is lower at 55 on HP/physicals
proven geyser
more minmaxxed
unkempt egret
probably because the BST would be like 600 if it was still 60
I was gonna say "imagine if it was 60/130" but then I remember jolteon and crobat making me think that 130 is a way more common speed stat than it actually is
proven geyser
what eeveelutions do to a mf
unkempt egret
Jolteon, Aerodactyl, crobat, Eiscue (faceless), mega gengar, Mewtwo/mega mew X, tapu koko, Eternatus (both forms), and spectrier is the full list of 130's
I'd almost say it's more crobat than jolt but lol
so until gen 6 literally just a pool of four mons
proven geyser
but anyway, i think the bulky threat on fantina is her duskull, with 90/90
or it would be
if the base hp wasnt 20
unkempt egret
tanky but the worst it can do to you is probably just burn ya with WoW
...and I guess pursuit if you brought a psychic type in for some reason
proven geyser
so, her damage is mainly special
with 2/3 of her team being weak to phys attacks
haunter is not writing home with 45/55 tbh
so you need physical attackers not weak to their moves, at least neutral, and with a fair special defense stat
proven geyser
Time to go reorganize the team and hope no one dies with the gym trainers

For the Spheal and Penguin pin Pokémon I have a theory
We had a lot of duos introduced in Gen 3, probably because of Double Battles being a thing
Plusle and Minun, Volbeat and Illumise, Zangoose and Seviper and finally Solrock and Lunatone. You could even argue Mawile and Sableye are one as well.
I think Spheal and the Penguin Pin was supposed to be another one.
Spheal was never meant to evolve, it was gonna stay like that and be available in one version and the Penguin Pin be available in another version.
Both would be found in Shoal Cave
Don’t ask me which version because I have no idea
Probably whoever is first in the Dex entires.
That’s how it worked with the others
But then they scrapped the Penguin Pokemon, kept Spheal and made it an evolution line.
So Sealeo and Walrein was never meant to exist
The Glacia fight would have been SO MUCH different if that was the case.
And then Penguin Pin got reused for Eiscue many generations later.

Xy was gonna have low hp music heres an early version of it

That just sounds like B/W's low Health music in 3DS soundtrack
Ands that would be more fitting for the Mewtwo fight in X/Y and the Legendary birds
As basically the 8bit stuff is not there.
Speaking of Kalos we found a map with Southern Kalos fully mapped out in it
What do you think about Bergmite being a 3 Stage line rather then 2 stage?

Some of those leaks Pokemon sprites were low-key fire

Here’s my question to you all. We know the leaker has access to PLZA, and info on Gen 10 and Synapse.
They also said they won’t release all of it until after those games come out
Is that decision because they don’t want TPC going full nuclear on them or because they would recieve hell from the community? Or is it both?
Because the hack was big and personal info is leaked, they are ALREADY in deep shit legalwise. I just can’t understand the morals of the leaker/hacker.
I know people genuinely don’t care if past stuff is leaked, but a lot of people will get mad if future stuff gets leaked.
proven geyser
probably released codenames and some future projects as a litmus test
got backlash upon leaking personal info(rightfully), and is treading carefully bc they're probably already looking into the guy, no need to give more of a reason to start a manhunt

Just very skewed priorities too
Only partly related, y'all think we'll ever get a way to mod the games to add voices?
It may theoretically already be possible with the gba romhacks, just gotta make a sound file play along with some text
And we know that even the GBC games could have voice clips... Although that'd be ear-bleeding
If Pikachu's voice in Yellow is anything to go by

They're all healing from their wounds
unkempt egret
I know theres one there in DPBDSP but I forget about plat
proper iris
Also I don't remember if there's any round areas in sinnoh
Anywhere I can just put a weight on a button and let the character run in circles
proud igloo
Togetic is a very good debuffer
Yawn, Flash, Sweet Kiss and Charm can mess many Pokémon up
proper iris
Bc if there's a round area like that, will let the game run to get some friendship
unkempt egret
sweet kiss may be lucksy but the others yea
proud igloo
Maybe replace Sweet Kiss with a attacking move
proper iris
Probably a good idea
proud igloo
Metronome is a big no due to RNG
proud igloo
But Ancientpower and Magical Leaf are decent
proud igloo
And if you keep it alive by the time you hit Iron Island you can get a Shiny Stone and Togekiss.
proper iris
Hopefully that'll be doable
proud igloo
Have you got the Happiny Egg?
unkempt egret
i dont trust metronome in any way regardless of which side is using it
proud igloo
Blissey is phenomenal in Nuzlockes
proper iris
Not really
proud igloo
As yes it dies to a physical move but it’s such a special wall that special attacks might not exist
proper iris
I'm just pre Fantina, got the togepi egg
proper iris
I gotta go there and pray i find a gible
proud igloo
And depending on your dupes cause that means Gible
proper iris
I do have a dupes clause but that'll depend on luck still
Bc bronzor is also a possibility
proud igloo
You can get Bronzor in the grass outside of Wayward cave
Encounters are Geodude, Zubat, Onix, Bronzor and Gible
proper iris
I actually had gone there yesterday and got dismayed bc bronzor, but for once, my oversensitive on/off switch was on my side
I already got something on the grass outside, I think
Can't remember what
proud igloo
Check the PC if you caught it
proper iris
Yep
proud igloo
That just leaves Onix
proper iris
Got onix
proven geyser
How the hell am I meant to beat Fantina with *these*
AHEM
proud igloo
Thus it’s only Bronzor or Gible
proven geyser
probopass is an excellent special wall at this point in time
it has a very high spdef relative to the fact it's not even remotely a special pokemon
proud igloo
Is it worth risking Wayward Cave for a Gible if Bronzor isn’t ruled out.
I meaning Bronzong is a good wall.
unkempt egret
it also still resists ghost and dark at this point in the series
proud igloo
But you have Probopass
proper iris
Yep but she can't do much more other than that
She has no moves that do much of anything
proud igloo
Walls are good in Nuzlockes because they can help with pivoting.
proven geyser
she can hard swap, and are rocks an option? or does levitate on everything negate that
proper iris
No use stalling if there's nothing to do with the staller
proper iris
PP depletion is a waiting game a bit too risky for me
And she got Sturdy
Not Levitate
proper iris
So that is out the window
proud igloo
Plus Sturdy is shit pre Gen 5
proper iris
No really what do I do with this
proven geyser
not that the only OHKO move her mons would have is destiny bond or anything
proud igloo
Unfortunately Protect isn’t an option until post Fantina.
proper iris
Only creature in my team that has protect is currently healing
So can't be used in this fight
proven geyser
a special wall is a start thankfully
proud igloo
And plus you need leftovers for full stall strats
proven geyser
even if peach cant do much, you can built strategies from hard pivot behavior
proud igloo
This is why Gible if caught can be handy
As it will evolve into Gabite before the level cap
proper iris
And plus you need leftovers for full stall strats
I mean. I'm rich enough to get a ton of potions at this point so
Even if not a true stall strat
proud igloo
And Gabite is very handy against Fantina.
proud igloo
And hope no Bronzor
I mean Bronzong isn’t bad but it’s just…
Like if Probopass is unavailable it’s a good replacement
proper iris
It's bronzong vs a pseudo
proven geyser
gabite better lmao
proper iris
Exactly
proven geyser
tbh garchomp is just good period, bro was OU until sv
and that wasnt his fault, we can blame power creep for that
i follow stunfisk reddit and everyone went nuts
proper iris
...........
Bronzor.
......................
I closed the DS in rage so hard it turned off.
Now i don't know if I take that as a second chance or consider it a failed catch
Not even joking, it's apparently a thing this DS does now.
proud igloo
I would consider it failed
But then again this isn’t a traditional Nuzlocke
If it was I would say failed catch
proven geyser
game failure vs user error, retry
if the game shuts off unintentionally then i wouldn't count it failed, since it's not a deliberate sabotage of the encounter, nor an unintended consequence of it or your Pokemon's attack
proud igloo
Anyway I’m looking at the leaks again and it seems there’s a fully modelled Gen 5 Maxie sprite.
Which is interesting
Theory is maybe there was a PWT tier for Evil Teams
So Maxie and Archie would have been there, then Giovanni and Archer, then Cyrus and maybe N could have shown up as well?
Ghetsis wouldn’t have done so buttt…
proper iris
Would've been fun
proud igloo
I would be more interested in the music.
At least the lack of psychic Pokemon means I could not do the Zoroark cheese on those battles
But I think the real reason is team wise there isn’t much variety.
Evil teams tend to use the same Pokémon
Plus lore wise how could you convince them to come?
I know Archie and Maxie reform at the end of the Hoenn games
And Giovanni does soul searching
But Archer is a enigma, Cyrus is trapped in the Distortion World for all of eternity and while N comes back in BW2, Ghetsis turns into a lunatic
proven geyser
serebii did not mention the trade of bunnelby for farfetch'd in santalune
this bitch is jolly
proud igloo
Probably because most people don’t do it
You can get both Pokémon in the wild at that point
I think
proven geyser
it's alert to sounds and apparently the calc hates something about it
the speed or everything else is wrong
proper iris
.... Bronzor again.
proven geyser
Ohhhh quacklin has a perfect speed IV
well, it's just fate then
we take what we get ig
proper iris
I'm not happy about this but it is what it is
proud igloo
That’s Nuzlockes you don’t get to choose what you get
proud igloo
Besides now you have two walls for Fantina as while it won’t evolve by then it can help Peach soak up the damage.
Assuming you catch it
proper iris
Now to not ko the little guy
proven geyser
make sure it doesnt learn take down
proper iris
Recoil moves are a nope anyway
proud igloo
Self-Destruct and Explosion could be handy for Hail Mary strats
I know Bronzor doesn’t learn them but could be useful on Pokémon who do
proper iris
Honestly I'd rather not.
Usually pokemon who learn those moves can have better plan B moves
That don't kill them
ARE YOU KIDDING ME
IT CRASHED AGAIN
At least I think I saved after getting the bronzor
Ok, I did, it's listed as caught in the dex
proud igloo
A conversation between Game Freak and the anime staff has been leaked.
Basically they aren’t happy Horizons has forgone a lot of Gen 9 stuff and they are trying to not take too many away from Gen 10
Basically what this confirms is the Gen 10 region is gonna be a set of islands we travel between ala Alola.
This could confirm Greece
But if we are going outside Europe we could equally have a Indonesia like region
proud igloo
If the open world is there it will literally be Wind Waker all over again
I will bet a sizeable money if that happens, someone will play Great Sea music
proper iris
I had forgotten how annoying berries were pre-HGSS
WHY ARE ALL THE FIELDS SCATTERED

I want to watch all the leaks but there so much im unsure of where to start
proper iris
I want to watch all the leaks but there so much im unsure of where to start
Just scroll randomly through centro_leaks on Twitter
You'll see it all
ruby marlin
Oh okay
proud igloo
Btw I have a theory that the Gen 10 region could be one of the motives why Nintendo decided to sue Pal World.
Because if the region is an archipelago which Pal World is also an archipelago they could have decided to go after them to prevent Pal World from stealing sales.
proper iris
That makes no sense
ruby marlin
Honestly the trial does more marketing to pal world then anything
proper iris
Also the game genres are entirely different.
proud igloo
And I also think many people are buying Pal World stuff out of spite
proper iris
So gameplay aspects aren't gonna be that meaningful in this
ruby marlin
Also funfact a pal world mobile clone appeared
proud igloo
More money for Pocketpair = better they can fight the legal battles.
I know and I hate these mobile clones. YouTube has ads for Pokémon clones all the time and I wish I can report them.
proper iris
The problem is if Nintendo wants to go with this as long as possible
Bc that's a strategy they can pull
proud igloo
Which is why people are buying as much stuff as possible.
To stop the war of attrition that people are foreseeing.
proper iris
Usually in these kinds of cases, it's likely they'll settle
proud igloo
I wouldn’t even be surprised if the lawsuit was a motive for the hack.
proper iris
Bc we're talking a billionaire company
It's usually just plain impossible to beat them.
proud igloo
Because this would be a headache for the legal team.
proper iris
Could be
proud igloo
I don’t know how big Nintendo’s legal department is but dealing with a patent infringement case and a major data breach at the same time is a logistical nightmare.

I don’t know how big Nintendo’s legal department is but dealing with a patent in...

ruby marlin
Also guys what do we know about z-a from the leaks?
proper iris
Way huger than you and I can imagine
Not much, plus let's keep it spoilered.
Not everyone wants to know
proud igloo
||Zygarde and Zercora are getting Megas||
||Stunfisk is in the game ||
Spoilering it so you don’t see it if you don’t want to
proper iris
But yeah. Nintendo is still going after people all the while this stuff happens
ruby marlin
||Stunfisk is in the game ||
Why is this one important ?
proper iris
So they got enough people in the legal team to go for multiple cases at once
proud igloo
||Don’t ask me I think it’s because the leaker found a full odds shiny Stunfisk during their Playthrough of ZA and they wanted to brag about it.||
||And they also confirmed shiny sound from PLA is back.||
ruby marlin
||Don’t ask me I think it’s because the leaker found a full odds shiny Stunfisk ...
||oh okay but is that it , also so happy about the sound||
proud igloo
||It was also due to come out in 2024 but got pushed back. Why we don’t know.||
||And the PC port the leaker has the main story complete and is just missing 55% of its sidequests, and has tons of lag and glitches due to being unfinished.||
But aside from that, they are not saying much due to the community backlash if they do so and plan to only leak it when PLZA comes out.
Assuming of course the Greninjas don’t get them before then.
||But my main question is is both normal and Galarian Stunfisk in the game?||
||In addition the anime conversation also mentions Mega Zygarde so that’s double confirmation it’s in the game.||
||After all Alola forms are in PLA||
But even if they have multiple legal teams that’s two major cases.
proper iris
Making poffins isn't as fun as I remembered.
Maybe it's because there's no one to make them with.
proud igloo
Sending a DMCA to a rando on the internet doesn’t take much.
Especially if they outsource it to AI
Not to mention it was someone high up Game Freak who got phished.
unkempt egret
yea with AI it's basically like trying to fight the ocean for getting someone wet
proper iris
These older games feel sadder now they're old and no longer are played as much and have no more connectivity anymore.
unkempt egret
(tbh with all of the AI we should really as a society start pushing to move important stuff back to physical mediums)
proper iris
Not like I ever had many people to play them with anyhow
proud igloo
So that’s gonna be a disaster in the company as I suspect it was someone quite important who got duped.
proper iris
But still
proud igloo
So you are dealing with company fallout, a data breach AND a patent infringement case.
The legal teams might be good but even all of that is too much for them.
And cracks will start to show.
proper iris
You underestimate the power of billions of dollars, I'd say.
I hope you're right, don't get me wrong
I'm just not as hopeful
Knocking Nintendo down a peg could be great
proud igloo
Besides depending when the ninjas close in I could see the leaker just leaking all the future projects onto the Internet out of spite.
Sure it will doom them to a severe sentence.
proper iris
And that's assuming it's one leaker.
proud igloo
But that could hurt the sales.
unkempt egret
yea you all underestimate how powerful the Cycle of Money is when it has to jump to sustain itself
proper iris
Could well be multiple people but one in front
I don't doubt we'll get all the info these leakers got bc
Well, people are wild
But I'm not so sure it'll be that big an issue for the company in the long term
Or even the medium term
proud igloo
I know it won’t hurt the Japanese sales.
As I’m sure most Japanese players are boycotting the sites where the leaks are going
proper iris
It won't hurt almost any sales.
proud igloo
As Japanese people HATE this sort of stuff.
proper iris
Most people aren't really aware of what's going on
Most fans aren't aware
Bc we here are an exception
The internet part of the fandom is the exception
Most fans are really casual
unkempt egret
also yea people underestimate both A. the silent majority, and B, the home market of japan
proper iris
At most these casual fans will get like, a news article or a YouTube video on it
unkempt egret
who for the most part have been MUCH more approving of the changes to the series since gen 6 than the online US has been
proper iris
And that's about it.
proud igloo
You could chalk that up to cultural reasons though
Japan is a extremely conformist country
proper iris
But also
unkempt egret
which makes sense as they're the main focuses, not us. if we weren't paying then it'd be fair to call us parasites lol
proper iris
Remember
It's not just the US
This is a worldwide franchise
The Americans may complain, but there's a ton of other countries where this franchise is big
unkempt egret
ostensibly anyway, it still has a japanese heart as much as it's tried its best to downplay that since gen 3
proper iris
Countries with even more people and more opinions
unkempt egret
hence why i said "online US" and not "the west"
proper iris
Yep
unkempt egret
since I think the US is really the only one complaining here lol
and even then, only some of those within a specific age range that's much above the target audience of 5-12
proper iris
still waiting for the day "Portuguese" is a language we can pick in the games. Come on, Brazil is one of the biggest markets they have.
unkempt egret
but we wanna make it our issue so of course we try to make a stink about it
then complain when every other part of the franchise rightfully shuts us out of influence for it
proper iris
America being America. No offense to y'all as individuals, but full offense to the mass that does that.
unkempt egret
I wouldn't even say "america" because I'm sure canada, mexico, and central/south america are better with that
mostly just the US and its turbo aggressive "all about me" culture
proper iris
Definitely
unkempt egret
but this is getting a bit off topic
proper iris
Here in south America we'd likely meme about it rather than complain bc that's how we roll.
Anyway.
In other news.
Still angry at the berries in Platinum
unkempt egret
basically long story short for them, nothing's gonna change with the franchise and instead of complaining I'd advise maybe looking for something more attuned to your tastes

since sun generally locked you to warm colors while moon generally locked you to cold colors
proven geyser
i think if you have the berries you can do whatever, yeah? the online is just active availability, so you can only get warm colors in sun without berries

right if you have the facilities you can still do it

my selection was only warm but i saw the option for purples and blues in dyes

That's all.
If you're using a jailbroken 3ds, you can still get them online

That is the hard part

is pretendo not jailbreaking or is this post jailbreak?

Pretendo is post jailbreak
