Lumineon is one that really surprised me, it performed very well

Quiver Dance + Water Bubble moment

And Bouncy Bubble too lol

[sonic sky]

Hear me out, kricketot with multilens and a multihit move that i dont remember the name (egg move) used to swipe later rooms

[sweet crypt]

I think it also has Oblivion Wing?

[sweet crypt]

Tried that

But I eventually gave up because PopBomb was so hard to set up

[sonic sky]

Yeah

[sweet crypt]

And if I was gonna use it

I should use it on like

A Pokemon that isn't as terrible

Like Cinccino

[warm rose]

I now am playing an A- luck classic mode 🔥

[sonic sky]

Fr

Its pain to run him

At least his a 0.5 cost

Sprite so clean

[sonic sky]

Peak

[warm rose]

did you name your character sponge

[sonic sky]

Missed that, just called him joe

[warm rose]

reset

[sonic sky]

Sure

[warm rose]

another epic, another chance at iron valliant

sponge

I had a stop a run that was super close to eternatus fight because I found a shiny iron valliant

and cant catch it

[warm rose]

because i dont have it unlocked yet

[sonic sky]

Thats what happens bro

[warm rose]

.

[sonic sky]

Had to stop an endless run once because found a roaring moon shiny and even had a masterball, but not him unlocked

[warm rose]

rip

[sonic sky]

Its so clean

[sonic sky]

Hes rlly good

One of the best

Paradox or idk how to call them

[warm rose]

one more chance for iron valliant

[sonic sky]

Its rlly low, but you can get it

[warm rose]

current evil team: team plasma

[sweet crypt]

Man I spent the entire day grinding my ass off on Pokerogue

And holy shit am I tired from doing so

[sonic sky]

But its so addicting

Thats the problem

[coarse estuary]

if its so addicting how come i get so bored so quick playin it

[sonic sky]

Idk maybe gambling isnt for everyone or rogue like games

And i just did a randomized nuzlocke on pokemon quetzal that ended on the very first encounter

My starter was geodude and my first encounter was a tatsugiri

Died hit kill to a water gun

[coarse estuary]

i like rouge games i just hate how pokerouge is like if you want to have consistantly good runs you need high luck which can only be gotten with rare shinies which is luck so it rewards the lucky players who get lots of rare shinys of high point value mons and punishes people who barely get any shinys at all

[sweet crypt]

High luck most certainly won't give consistently good runs

The only thing that gives consistently good runs is an extremely sound strategy

Trust me, I'd know

My luck is the best when it's low

[warm rose]

Ivy battle 3:
Incineroar
Staraptor
Sigilyph
Feebas

[sweet crypt]

The stat barely matters

[coarse estuary]

either way my complaint still stands that higher luck is determined by how many rare shiny mons you have is stupid

[warm rose]

do i go for the gamba money

i will go for da money

[sonic sky]

exactly

[split yoke]

Pokerogue got fusions too!

I couldn't find a good reason to fuse anything in the run, but still.

[mossy linden]

Il y a quoi comme autre bon Fan game pokemon ?

[sonic sky]

english please

[mossy linden]

My english is poop

[sonic sky]

oooh

Je ne sais vraiment pas

[mossy linden]

Mais keske

[sonic sky]

i cant communicate at all😭

j'ai pris des cours de français il y a plusieurs années (i dont know anything)

[hard plume]

discord needs an update where you can translate messages

[hard plume]

There's a lot of them if you know where to look
In terms of rom hacks, I do recommend Pokemon Evolved
It's Pokemon, but they keep evolving

[warm rose]

rip... no iron valliant...
guess ill have to wait longer to beat the game again

woo!

Ivy battle 4:
Incineroar
Staraptor
Sigilyph
Milotic
Gholdengo

ICE BEAM!!!!

[warm rose]

oh my god these random typings are peak

[warm rose]

one shot!!

i win!!

[spare hare]

what game is thisone?

[warm rose]

pokerogue

[coarse estuary]

ok my nidoran just evolved into nidorina, when would be a good level to evo it into nidoqueen

[sonic sky]

any level but if youre looking for a recommended i would say 32-36

guess this game wasnt meant for me

[unkempt egret]

oooh nice god pack

(also two different wugtrios is hilarious)

[bleak apex]

how many packs have you opened in TCGP

cause ive opened over 500 and havent gotten a god pack

[sonic sky]

this wasnt mine, this was a guy on a pokerogue server that i found

[bleak apex]

oh

😭

[sonic sky]

yeah kinda sad to hear the news

[unkempt egret]

I've opened a lot of packs and I've gotten... exactly one lol (at one point last week)

mine wasn't as good as that one though

(shoutouts to that being the fourth copy of the alt gholdengo I've gotten rofl)

[static hatch]

Yo, anyone have pokemon shield? I need the shield dog for my Pokémon sword pokedex

[tight granite]

my only ever god pack had 2 doubles

[unkempt egret]

rip, at least it was a new double though

speaking of pocket TGC I'm finally done with expert missions up to space time smack down and heeeck the darkrai/weavile deck

managed to get the psychic win after 20+ attempts purely off sleep luck with hypno popping two turns in a row

[tight granite]

are those the battles against a.i

i do them sometimes for fun but i only ever do blaine deck for everything

[unkempt egret]

...which also got the "only use tier 1-3 cards" award since my only mons were togekiss and hypno rofl

also understandable, blaine deck's my go-to for fire weaknesses

[tight granite]

i use it for everything

outside of the first 3 tournaments i have gotten every medal

im not really into the currect ranking fight shit, i hate how much grinding that is

at this point i only do 1 battle a day when i get home from work

and i am sitll in the pokeball stage at the 4th stage

[unkempt egret]

I haven't bothered with PvP lol

[tight granite]

i liked collecting the medals

its more fun to use those on your profile then the inshop badges

[unkempt egret]

I'm still sad I was two gold off from being able to grab the leafeon coin last rotation

[tight granite]

at this point i mostly only do the a.i battles when there is a new promo card grind

have every promo card exept for mewtwo ex, the very first one

[unkempt egret]

mostly same but after I finished up balatro I may as well fill that void in for now with the AI battles I have left

[tight granite]

ah wait i am also missing the very first clefairy wonder trade promo card

[unkempt egret]

rip

I forget can you trade promo cards?

[tight granite]

so this and this but got everything else

[tight granite]

sadly nah

and not sure they will let you, since they are supposed to be exlusives

[unkempt egret]

rip

I believe the only non-premium one I'm missing is the moltres since I just got unlucky with my picks

[tight granite]

even if i could trade, the celfairy would be easy, the mewtwo tho would be very hard sicne you can only max own 1 of them since it was a shop card, so only way i could trade that would be with someone who quits the game

[tight granite]

isnt the moltres a premium

[unkempt egret]

was it? not sure

[tight granite]

it was a free card you got when logging in

[unkempt egret]

aaah

thought it was part of that fire type wonder pick thing

[waxen grail]

https://youtube.com/shorts/FGAnxRWNBVA

[shrewd mauve]

Am doing a bdsp run in which I traded in all my pokemon and I learned that Traded Pokemon have always had an obedience mechanic. Depending on the amount of badges you have, there is a level cap before traded pokemon stop obeying you. In Gen 4 it goes up every 2 Badges.

0-1 Badge is Level 10

2-3 Badges is Level 30

4-5 Badges is Level 50

6-7 Badges is Level 70

8 Badges is Level 100

I like to level my whole team up to the aces highest which dev Decided this is good GYM 2'S ACE IS 22

I'm only playing Bdsp cause it's the only legit game where I can have a team of my 6 favorites without having to do DS trading

[unkempt egret]

rip

that should be the last time it's an issue thankfully unless you end up going over 30 before the fourth gym

[shrewd mauve]

Hopefully not

But what about the 5th gym?

It's still gonna be at 30

[waxen grail]

Gonna have to get c r e a t i v e, friend

[unkempt egret]

no by gym 5 it should be level 50?

yea once you beat gym 4 (wake or mayline, I think you can do either as the fourth but the game somewhat intends for wake to be 4th) then it bumps up to level 50

[junior otter]

Anyone wanna play pokemon quiz?

[sonic sky]

this was my best😭

[nova marlin]

standoff

man this guy is hard to catch

nvm just caught him

[coarse estuary]

U using the chuggaa team? If not what is your team

[sonic sky]

uh oh

[coarse estuary]

Catch the warden in a master ball lol

[sweet crypt]

Simply don't get caught

Alternatively, turn KeepInventory on and fucking book it, stealing as many things as possible

AKA what I do literally every time I find the Deep Dark

Don't forget to sacrifice Squirtle for extra time

[nova marlin]

chugga team?

[coarse estuary]

Yeah chuggaa team

[nova marlin]

never heard of it

[coarse estuary]

You've never heard of chuggaaconroy?

[nova marlin]

uhm

no

[coarse estuary]

I'm highly saddened. The best YouTuber on the planet is becoming unknown to younger generations.

[nova marlin]

im

still highly unfamiliar with pokemon

[nova marlin]

pokemon infinite fusion was my first actual pokemon game that i played

[coarse estuary]

I hate that on so many levels

[nova marlin]

i wasnt allowed to play pokemon games before😭

[coarse estuary]

Why? Religious parents?

[nova marlin]

i just recently got myself a 3ds and some games for it

[nova marlin]

they dont like games

[coarse estuary]

So they were like because we don't like playing videogames we won't let our child play. That's dumb

[nova marlin]

so i wasnt rly able to play that much

[nova marlin]

pretty much

only when i turned 16 they let me do what i want with my money

cant complain that much tho

i see it as an opportunity to having a massive options to playing many unkown games

[coarse estuary]

Oof. Well to get back on topic chuggaaconroy isn't a poketuber if that's what you thought

[nova marlin]

i defenitly wont run out of games for a while now

[nova marlin]

oh

my bad

is he an english youtuber?

[coarse estuary]

It's all good.

He is a YouTuber who does the practically dead gaming style of let's plays

[nova marlin]

ah

well it might be because im german

and still learning a bit of english

why ive never heard of him

i dont watch lets plays in general

dont like spoiling myself for when i get the games myself

[coarse estuary]

Could be. Though I won't be shocked if even people who natively speak English and are in younger generations don't know him because they like mr beast and overstimulation content

[nova marlin]

mr beast is that uh

money guy?

[coarse estuary]

Also there is no rule that states you can't watch a let's play of a game after you've beat it and yes that is money guy

[nova marlin]

i think?

[nova marlin]

oh yeah ik

i was planning on watching stuff like that

once i beat the game

[coarse estuary]

Well for gens 1-5 of pokemon I highly suggest chuggaaconroy of you don't mind the English.

[sonic sky]

"ribombee please survive that!"

[undone aurora]

Listen here- I’m younger and don’t watch any of the above okay- I prefer not to be overstimulated I have enough Tism issues I know this wasn’t targeted but I’m younger and therefore must mention smth

[sweet crypt]

Alright chat, give me recommendations on what to use in Pokerogue, we doing some rec runs

[abstract hedge]

Guys, I don't think grubbin evolves into silvally

[sweet crypt]

Must've meant Skwovet, they both start with S after all!

[coarse estuary]

I assume you mean the Mr beast and overstimulation content and not chuggaa

[undone aurora]

Yeah I don’t watch those or the other dude

[undone aurora]

Endless or normal?

[sweet crypt]

Normal

[undone aurora]

Ahhh

Is it your first run or?

I like endless for shiny potential

[coarse estuary]

This just proves my point that the younger generations don't watch lp content on YouTube anymore and the only people who do are the people who watched it while it was popular

[sweet crypt]

I have every achievement in the game

So uhh

No

[undone aurora]

Goddamn-

[sweet crypt]

I do run recommendations because I like seeing what other people use

[undone aurora]

Idk what you mean really. I mean I watch some popular people but I haven’t heard of that dude

Mostly I like watching the same people I’ve watched for years over and over so I don’t tend to go looking for new content

[coarse estuary]

It's not "new content" chuggaa has been posting lps of Nintendo games since before 2010

[sweet crypt]

Let's Plays are an almost entirely dead subset of video type that you would need to go out of your way to find nowadays

[coarse estuary]

That's exactly the point I'm making

[undone aurora]

I’m okay with lets plays I’m just saying

I wasn’t on YouTube in 2010 lol

When I say new content I mean as in ya know, stuff I haven’t watched before. Like if I’m looking up pokemon I have people in mind already. New content would be other people

[sweet crypt]

I do not think I could list a let's play I remember that is less than 3 years old I don't see any anymore

I probably would watch one again if it's of a game/franchise I show interest in

[coarse estuary]

Bowsers inside story chuggaa or pokemon black and white 2 chuggaa or pokemon new old world dawn herovoltsy that's 3 right there

[sweet crypt]

B2W2 mentioned 🔥 🔥 🔥

Anyways while waiting on recommendations I'm gonna play a randomiser

Of what?

I uhh

I dunno

[coarse estuary]

You could do usum randomized or bw1 randomized

[lucid phoenix]

Do you think drayton would sounds like ben schwartz

[uneven blaze]

it also says grubbin and skwovet are grass type

[coarse estuary]

do you mean drayden the gym leader

[lucid phoenix]

The guy who called kieran ex-champion

The toothpaste hair

From indigo disc

[coarse estuary]

oh yeah him forgot bout that bro. idk tbh what he would sound like

[lucid phoenix]

This kid

[warm rose]

another non-iron valliant epic egg 😦

[warm rose]

this wasn't even yesterdays legendary.... wow

[warm rose]

shiny!!!

!!

[unkempt egret]

could feel the AI seething on every minute+ delay on the sleep coinflips

also good to know that wugtrio can overkill something

(also yes I made a misty deck because heck some of these later challenges)

[nova marlin]

i honestly

dont know if in this game

the armor is needed

[unkempt egret]

interesting effect though but probably only useful if you can self-burn yourself and don't have some other way to remove the attack drop

but yea trade evos are for the main series lol

[unkempt egret]

speaking of statuses interesting that you can overwrite a sleep status with a poison one in pocket TGC

wouldn't have won without that lol

doing all of the trainerless missions now so I don't have to bother later

(I dunno why I went water vs the crobat deck but gyarados got a lucky snipe on its weavile and it was all over from there)

[vague anvil]

Is there still a chance for an egg even when the nursery worker says the pokemon don't like playing together at all in sword?

[unkempt egret]

I don't believe so. what's the pair you're working with?

[vague anvil]

Ditto and riolu

Do I have to increase the friendship of both of them or only one?

[waxen grail]

Riolu can't breed

it's a baby

so it's in the No Eggs Discovered egg group

[waxen grail]

raise riolu's friendship til it evolves

[vague anvil]

Oh

[nova marlin]

i cant tell if this lugia is a female or male

like

sometimes its "he"

then "she"

[unkempt egret]

late but yea it's easy to forget that riolu is a baby mon since it's not really babyish like the other two "introduced as baby" mons, togepi and toxel

[vague anvil]

Man why the hell did I get a lvl 100 hacked shiny Pichu

That thing can't even evolve

I'm just going to release it

[waxen grail]

in SW/SH it should be able to

get friendship

then use a rare candy

[unkempt egret]

I mean release it anyway if it's hacked but there is an evolve option at least which is nice

ok that should do it for poke-only

moltres ex was getting KO'ed to much so I leaned on more aggro mons that could OHKO skarmory

[shell oak]

Then there’s also mons that look baby but aren’t, like chewtle and tinkatink

[brisk hedge]

Did somebody say Weavile

[warm rose]

SHINY MANAPHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[warm rose]

and another non-iron valliant epic egg....

[supple basalt]

Lol I just got Softlocked in the Explorers of Alpha game I've been playing

The creator of the romhack is looking into it (Which I think this is the first time I've ever had the creator of a romhack reply about a serious issue in less than 24 hours)

[warm rose]

so close....

[shell oak]

Egg moves

• nature power
• cosmic power
• ancient power
• the ultimate power

[sonic sky]

thats crazy

love the pose

[sonic sky]

final team

[hard plume]

you know what would enhance that image?
gengar looking at its trainer with that smug smile on its face

[coarse estuary]

id love to replay shield one day but i hate how its so difficult to get gigantamax pokemon anymore

[warm rose]

Woo! I Win again!!

[shell oak]

Experience the cool and refreshing taste of Mountain Dew Baja Blast

[nova marlin]

what happened to my pokemon😭

[tight granite]

would there be any reason it couldnt?

[unkempt egret]

was just wondering and not sure what the heck happened with GO there, maybe try rebooting the app?

[void wind]

I think I got all shiny ex cards

[hard plume]

damn that's all of them?

[hard plume]

your grookey ascended to a higher plane of existence
that's not a grookey anymore
that's a being beyond our human comprehension

[void wind]

Yeah that’s all the shiny ex I think

[hard plume]

i'm surprised there even are shiny ex cards

[unkempt egret]

I think there are more shiny cards but those are the four that got EX'ed and shiny

[shell oak]

There’s mewtwo but that one is paid only so it smells bad

[smoky gyro]

Random thought

What if Volt Absorb mons get a heal at the end of each turn if theyre grounded and electric terrain is up

Same goes for all the other terrains and the respective "absorb" abilities

[covert fiber]

emboar might be the successor to charizard

shiny mega emboar will look so tuff

[coarse estuary]

almost had a murder on my hands. i caught my sibling playing my white save with my favorite team of all time on a new game. they didnt ask if they could play just started playing. lucky for me they didnt delete the save and didnt try to save before i saw them play in order for them to see if you want to save a new game the previous save file must be erased message and think to delete my save

[sweet crypt]

Sap Sipper users getting +1 Attack every turn:

And Lightning Rod users getting +1 SpA every turn too

And Motor Drive becoming wish.com Speed Boost

[smoky gyro]

Not +1 atk but just further healing
Which is still solid cause with grassy terrain you get double heals

[sweet crypt]

The issue is why would Sap Sipper grant heals in Grassy Terrain

It doesn't grant heals when a Pokemon is hit by a Grass move

It grants Attack

It simply makes no sense for Grassy Terrain to give it double the healing

Instead of healing and +1 Attack or, even better

Just healing

I dont think the terrains need any boost apart from their current ones

[smoky gyro]

Cause +1 stat will definitely be WAYYY too broken

[sweet crypt]

Except maybe Misty Surge since the main effect there is literally just halving the damage of Dragon moves and like

Bro

[smoky gyro]

You dont see wind riders get +1 every turn of tailwind

[sweet crypt]

Both Misty Surge users are Fairy types

Why the fuck are you halving the damage of Dragon moves

You're already immune to Dragon

It does also grant status immunity which is nice

[smoky gyro]

Whos the second one, I only remember Lele

[sweet crypt]

And buff Misty Explosion which is inconsequential

[sweet crypt]

Lele has Psychic Surge

You're thinking of Fini

The 2nd one is Galarian Weezing-Galar

[smoky gyro]

Yea one of the tapus

[sweet crypt]

Autocorrect turned Weezing into Weezing-Galar

I did not realise I talked that much more about Galarian Weezing than base Weezing

[smoky gyro]

That thing doesnt even run misty terrain 90% of the time

Its either levitate in singles or neutralizing gas in doubles

[sweet crypt]

Yeah it's busy running Levitate like 75% of the time

And NGas like 25% of the time

It is not running Misty Surge

Status immunity does not matter nearly as much when you're a slow, special attacking Poison type

Levitate is Levitate

And it's on a Ground weak Pokemon

And Ngas allows it to Defog vs Gholdengo

[smoky gyro]

Its funny though cause there have been times in randbat where weezing (either forms) is my only tspikes removal

And then levitate just ruins it

[shrewd mauve]

Little update from my bdsp run, my wartotle,shroomish all hit like ~70-90 percent of the time despite the obience, Aron is litteraly 50/50 each turn, Togepi I havent really used much but it ok previously but most recent battle it got 1 hit off, meanwhile my houndour it's a 50/50 each battle it either nearly always hits or nearly always misses, and my swinub hits maybe ~10-20 percent of the time each battle, also I learned in bdsp Swinubs best level up move till LEVEL 30 is Tackle... litteraly tackle has the most power till level 30

I swear if this game keeps it up then this will be my one and only time beating and playing it

Also the watch thingy wouldn't let me exit it even after we hitting the Exit button

[sonic sky]

Just make a max soup, but its easy only with dlc

[sonic sky]

😭

[warm rose]

these is now my absolute peak manaphy starter moves !!
heart swap will be replace with take heart
and if i find ice beam, frost beath will also be replaced.

best nature for manaphy would probably be +spatk -atk right

[sweet crypt]

The best natures I can think of for Manaphy are Modest (+SpA -Atk), Timid (+Speed -Atk) and Bold (+Def - Atk), depending on if you value damage, speed or bulk the most

Doing a Random run because why not, this is my team

[warm rose]

peak....
2 shinies too

[sweet crypt]

I have a hilarious idea for Eternatus

Use Skitty to Entrainment Normalise onto it

[warm rose]

ive never in my entire time playing pokerogue gotten a wave 20 gym

[sweet crypt]

And then Cofagrigus instantly wins

[warm rose]

nice

[sweet crypt]

Cofagrigus is already great for Eternatus since it is bulky enough to tank a hit and land a Curse

[warm rose]

what does normalise do

[sweet crypt]

Turns every move used by the user into a Normal type move

[warm rose]

oh that is peak

[sweet crypt]

Rival uses Sprigatito, since my main carry is Salamence I need to be cautious of Triple Axel

However Salamence probably has enough type advantage to force a switch

Allowing me to Dragon Dance up

Oh hey blue shiny Spritzee

[warm rose]

if i lose to my own pokemon do i lose the run ?!

its the training thingy

[sweet crypt]

Yes

[warm rose]

man.... i shouldve brought my Unown....

[warm rose]

cuz of this

[sweet crypt]

Anyways Mega Salamence has Rock Head as a passive, so if I get there I am going to abuse the absolute hell out of it with Aerilate Double Edge

[warm rose]

nice

[sweet crypt]

Before then, Salamence has Gale Wings

Which is awful

As Salamence does not have many Flying moves at all

[warm rose]

which nature would be best for charmander?

[sweet crypt]

Depends on if you want X or Y

Or Gmax

Gmax I'd say probably Modest

Y can be Modest or Timid

X I'd say probably Adamant

[warm rose]

wowie

alr have it

[sweet crypt]

I've seen people complain about early breeder encounter showing up with 4 Pokemon

But I like it

[warm rose]

ez xp

[sweet crypt]

Since it's free exp

Without it, if you don't get gym leader on 20, you may not reach the level cap of 16

It barely matters but like

I need to reach the level cap or I become sad

Alright, I am on a 20 cycle

Me after realising Bewear's passive is Scrappy: (There has been a severe and continuous lapse in my judgment)

This also serves as me after realising Clobbopus evolves via learning Taunt

Got the V-Create Rayquaza

Yippee!

Nice, I ACTUALLY got the Salamencite

Apparently V-Create has 95 accuracy and always had

Which probably makes it the only move that can miss that I have never seen miss

And I actually have seen it a significant amount

"Wait why did Dragon Darts not OHKO"

• Looks at item bar
• 5 Fucking Irons
  "Holy shit"

Thankfully for me, I had 3 fucking Zincs for Rayquaza's Dragon Pulse

[sweet crypt]

Anyways gg ez

Salamence actually held its own vs Eternatus due to an X Speed, X SpD and Mantine's Freezy Frost

And the previously mentioned 3 zincs, of course

[raven bison]

Time to play Pokémon Y again. I'm going to pick Chespin this time. I probably will pick Charizard / Blastoise as a second starter

[raven bison]

I got hardy nature, I'll take it.

[sonic sky]

looking for a dreepy in pokemon sword is pain

[warm rose]

isnt there dragopults on that island

[nova marlin]

Cmon palkia

Nothin 💔

[boreal storm]

So dot just saying cursed word on a kids cartoon

[nova marlin]

In what kind of World does this person live in?

[boreal storm]

A world where you could just walk in the street with a god level treat without anyone staring at you

[last egret]

You know what I’m also gonna say it. HG/SS also had pretty big flaws. The level curve in Johto is horrendous

[unkempt egret]

johto doing a split mid-exercise and sends itself to the ER (dang there aren't any towns in gen 2 that start with R)

also I'm only missing two cards in genetic apex in pocket TGC and both of them are somehow 3-star cards in the mewtwo pack (beedrill and normal articuno)

[gusty umbra]

deciding who to drop in pokerogue is hell cause one wrong choice and I WILL get cooked

all this decision making for a breloom...

[sweet crypt]

This a Gen 3 run?

This team has 0 way to get past Rayquaza right now, Breloom could help with Spore I guess but Gen 3 in general has lacking options for Mega Ray

Breloom with Spore and Leech Seed is handy for Eternatus and Mega Rayquaza, the former since it's a double battle which may allow you to actually use the moves and the latter wince Mega Ray will likely switch into Breloom allowing you to Spore/Leech Seed on switch in

I'd probably replace Mightyena or Banette

More likely Mightyena

[shrewd mauve]

My pokemon now have decided to only hit 10 percent of the time

Non Obience shouls work like sleep talk

Not like how it originally is

Why does it makes sense if you not obeying someone to just hit yourself ?

[shrewd mauve]

I realized a workaround I have a piplup FROM my brillant diamond game, i will level it up a bunch in scarlet, so that I can use it to kill everything till I can actually use my pokemon, abd since the piplup is from brilliant diamond it will obey me it that game

[upbeat aurora]

Is this a good team for 6v6 doubles?

Archaludon has electro shot & Pelipper has drizzle, electro shot usually takes 2 turns, but with rain it only takes 1 turn. This strategy falls apart if an opposing pokémon has drought, snow warning, sand stream, or delta stream (Nullifies all weather conditions)

[unique topaz]

Is there a wiki for the older games like the one for pif

[warm rose]

Woo! Another win

[coarse estuary]

there are resorces for all main line pokemon games

[unkempt egret]

yea for mainline the main sources are bulbapedia and serebii with their own benefits and drawbacks (and pokemon database which I mainly use for sprites but I know others also use it as well)

[dire robin]

Chespin is my goat. Underrated little fella

[raven bison]

Bro, learn all of these moves early on. I have good coverage movesets now.

[dire robin]

yeah for real, early move coverage is really good

Tbh pokemon x/y is easy, I probably going to use Pokémon native from Kalos region this run. I'm not going to use the Kanto starters.

[unkempt egret]

that was an... odd raid.

thought we ran out of time at the 60% marker but somehow a tera miraidon did enough damage to take out 50% of the salamence's health in the last second to win

also looks like a good 'pin so far

[raven bison]

Just caught this Litleo & finished the bug gym.

[unkempt egret]

she has one thought and head still empty

also dang I am not getting tood luck with Tinkas in GO, at least they're common in 10k eggs now?

did just hatch a 13/15/15 hattenna though which is nice

[supple basalt]

I should play USUM again. Maybe a legit playthrough this time lol

Nah I'll just continue stealing

Sightseer Mariah is currently giving me her team

[nova marlin]

Surrounded by Satan, time and space

[supple basalt]

[nova marlin]

Glorious leader

[supple basalt]

Wonderful

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-gen5-gif-25623300

[supple basalt]

Unironically Cyrus is probably my favorite team lead lol

Ghetsis isn't bad but he gets overshadowed by N as the antagonist of Black/White

Doors are Arceus' biggest weakness XD I can't get into the biome when in Synchro mode as Arceus

What the fuck why is this smeargle MASSIVE

IS SMEARGLE ACTUALLY THAT BIG?

[raven bison]

Smeargle is 1.2 m tall.

[supple basalt]

What the hell I always thought it was knee height lol

[jaunty trellis]

A photo of some of my Bruxish is Pokemon Go

[supple basalt]

Okay I'm really happy I worked for that better nature Poochyena in BlazeBlack

Because Mightyena at level 20 learns the three elemental bite moves AND Crunch. So I got the coverage of a god hyena lol

I don't think he normally learns these at 20. This is a romhack

[warm rose]

i got like 3 legendary eggs when calyrex was in the legendary up
did not get calyrex 👍

and now a cosmog from a mewtwo up legendary egg

[warm rose]

that lycanroc version is normally 0.8m tall

[sweet crypt]

To be fair, Calyrex is a bitch to actually use

Since you need to get the reins of unity

And if you don't it's a dead weight

If you do it's broken as shit but it isn't the only broken as shit thing

[warm rose]

also

[warm rose]

i believe i got miraidon from the 3rd egg (first technically)

[sweet crypt]

W

Which egg move did you get?

[warm rose]

spacial rend

[sweet crypt]

Pretty good

Rising Voltage would've been better but you can't have everything

And Miraidon still has a 100 BP Electric move

[unique topaz]

Can you send the links

[sonic sky]

yo huge

[sharp cedar]

Anyone know how to install pokemon:Evolved?

[nova marlin]

wait. is that legal?

😭

[sharp cedar]

Bro pulled a whole Meowth

[undone aurora]

He always does that it’s okay

[nova marlin]

gg. both my attacks moves dont work. and my other 2 dont damage it. and i cant switch out

[sweet crypt]

Got both Alolan and Kanto Rattata via random pick for this next Pokerogue run

[sweet crypt]

That is a lot of ice cream

[sonic sky]

Missed the community day...

[stray ibex]

(Idk if we can talk about TCG here, but I’m going to try)
I pulled a secret rare N’s Zoroark from Journey Together ETB

[coarse estuary]

there is 0 rule that saus you cant

[sonic sky]

Absolutely can

Its a pokemon game

Even the mario rom hack you can talk about

Since its based about pokemoj

[stray ibex]

Ok

[warm rose]

BETTER MANAPHY SHINY!!!!!

[stray ibex]

:O

[sonic sky]

what a luck

i need to find a shiny legendary in pokemon sword and shield asap

team is getting ready

[broken crater]

Yo guys pokemon go got pretty realistic last update

Look at this shiny litten

[verbal knoll]

that's wild dude,

catch it

[broken crater]

I did

It was shundo

[verbal knoll]

shundo?

[broken crater]

Shiny hundo

I dont have a shiny

But this is a normal hundo

In case you didnt know

[unkempt egret]

as opposed to the other kind of shundo

shadow + hundo in that case (Shando?), amusing that one of the two I have is also a hitmonchan (the other is a persian)

but yea usually shundo is shiny + hundo

[broken crater]

Mine got hundo bc of purification

[unkempt egret]

nice nice

[broken crater]

Or else I wouldnt have done it

[unkempt egret]

yea usually if one's like a 13/13/14 then I'll fire away on the purification lol

as for my shundos uuuh

[broken crater]

Still happy with this tho

[unkempt egret]

discounting trades I have these 3 (groudon was from a raid day, metagross was from the 2018 com day, and purugly was a random nesting mon lol)

[broken crater]

I dont have shundos

Honestly dont even have much hundos

[unkempt egret]

for shadow shinies I think my most notable one was I had the absurd luck with shiny exeggcute and got one before the alolan day

which I usualy use if it's UL day and I see too many swamperts in a row

[broken crater]

Lol

I got the devil

You got melmetal?

How the fuck do I have lugia

[delicate hollow]

What if there was a Pokemon and Kingdom Hearts crossover game where you play as a Keyblade creature capture class or trainer who catches wild Heartless, Nobodies and Unversed (or Dream Eaters) in order to be the very best like no one ever was?
That would make an excellent Pokrmon rom hack if I do say so myself.

[broken crater]

Hm

You

Know

[warm rose]

Another win! Last win with regular shiny manaphy, time for rare shiny manaphy

[flint grotto]

What game is that o.O ?

Lv200 mons, and so much buff effects on Eternatus wowie

[warm rose]

[raven bison]

I'm replaying pokemon Y right now, I'm planning to use only gen 6 pokemon. I just notice the only pokemon from gen 6 that can mega evolve is Diancie, and I can't even obtain the mega stone(Diancite) for Diancie on Pokemon Y. Damn, I guess I'm gonna replace my Pyroar with Charizard Y.

https://tenor.com/view/hardest-choides-thanos-avengers-strongest-wills-gif-15279882

[wispy osprey]

you could just not use Megas

I didn’t

I had 5 gen 6 pokemon; I did include a pokemon not from gen 6 not because I wanted to use mega evolution but because I needed water and electric coverage so Lanturn was my best option

[raven bison]

That's right, but pokemon x & y gimmick is mega evolve, the gen that introduce mega evolve only have one pokemon that can turn into mega?.

Agh fuck, after I think about it I guess I'm not gonna use mega this run. For the sake of only gen 6 pokemon.

My team right now

• Chesnaught
• Pyroar
• Vivillon
• Florges
  The other two I haven't decide yet, I probably will pick these
• Clawitzer
• Aurorus

[pure temple]

is there any firered romhack with a lot of pokemon like radical red? but not difficulty

[sweet crypt]

I remember my XY starter was Greninja because

This shit so ass

[warm rose]

Hi latios

[sweet crypt]

When your only Dark STABs by level up are fucking Feint Attack and Night Slash, both being garbage moves, one being learnt before you evolve and the other at level fucking 70, going off of your worse attack stat

Your level up movepool is hot garbage

[warm rose]

Lookie here !!!😀

[sweet crypt]

And Dark Pulse is like post Gym 6

And right before the fucking Fairy gym

Where you aren't gonna be fucking using Greninja because it's the Fairy gym

Also, looking at Bulbapedia

It claims that you need Waterfall to get it

So forget that

It isn't post Gym 5

It's post gym 8

Fucking dogshit

[sweet crypt]

Gg

Anyways TLDR

Don't use Greninja in XY

Because it basically is Pure Water type but a lot worse

Which is lame

Oh you have to be shitting me Chesnaught is the exact same

At least you get Low Kick I guess

65 BP is low

But it exists

Unlike Greninja's Dark STAB

Delphox actually gets both Fire STAB and Psychic STAB

And good ones too

Mystical Fire via evolution, Psyshock a mere 2 levels after, then Flamethrower 7 levels away

[brisk hedge]

If you get a hidden ability Greninja, all of its moves are STAB

[sweet crypt]

Actual fucking STAB

Holy shit

[sweet crypt]

I love getting a Hidden Ability Greninja in Gen 6 that's so possible

[raven bison]

Meanwhile chespin learn coverage move early.

[brisk hedge]

Just like getting Eternal Flower Floette

[brisk hedge]

Rollout actually makes it insane against the first gym, despite being weak to it

[sweet crypt]

Thank god for ability patches man

What a godsend

[raven bison]

Yeah roll out carried

[sweet crypt]

Looking at the level up movesets I have to say Delphox's here is the best

Good STABs for both types not just before level 60, but even before level 50

I cant believe my eyes

Wait shit I was looking at the SV level up learnsets please Delphox don't be dogshit like the other 2

I still have hope

Since the other 2 also have dogshit level up movesets in Gen 9

Flamethrower is even earlier holy shit

Yeah no Delphox is just the GOAT

[unkempt egret]

to slightly clarify on greninja you don't get special dark STAB until waterfall which is level 59

[raven bison]

We can find hone claws early, I can teach it to my qulladin to boost my rollout & pin missile accuracy a bit.

[unkempt egret]

also picking fennekin means I don't have to put up with either of the rivals getting fire spin

(see also: denying nemona/clive torch song in gen 9)

[sweet crypt]

Difference there is that Meowscarada and Quaquaval actually have good movesets in their own right

Like they can have a reasonably good movepool by the time you're reaching the endgame

And even quite a bit earlier

Chesnaught has to use Low Sweep for STAB

And Greninja has to use Feint Attack

[unkempt egret]

yea it's far more the "I don't wanna put up with that nightmare in the lategame" in gen 9 than the starters not having the moves they want

[sweet crypt]

Delphox having both Psyshock and Flamethrower this early is a fucking MIRACLE when you look at the other 2

You even get Grass Knot so Ground and Rock types aren't nearly as scary

Since they tend to be heavy

[warm rose]

Woo

[broken crater]

[coarse estuary]

next time i do a casual xy playthrough im tempted to do the 4x leftovers glitch

[warm rose]

First ever wave 20 gym i got in pokerogue

[brisk hedge]

Hey, it’s the first gym leader I ever fought

[last egret]

UNPOPULAR OPINION
Diamond and Pearl were very flawed and unrefined games. They got bailed out by Platinum

Everyone loves to glaze D/P but I’ll be the first to say they are a bit overrated

[untold hill]

ur unpopular opinions r always not so unpopular

[sweet crypt]

You're not the first to say they're overrated.
You probably are the first to say they're overrated like 10 times though

You've definitely said this before

Like many multiple times even

[unkempt egret]

at this point everyone's said everything pokemon-related so trying to rate opinions in terms of quantity is pointless, there's just too many

[sweet crypt]

I dunno, I haven't seen the opinion that Karrablast is a great Pokemon

I'd say that'd probably be an unpopular opinion

There's definitely some people who think that but probably not more than 20% of the fanbase

Besides, unpopular isn't dictated a direct number, anyways

It's dictated by a percentage

[wispy osprey]

karrablast is a silly guy

[cloud lark]

Gen 5 bugs in general are all awesome. Volcarona and to a lesser extent Scolipede may have gotten the lions share of popularity, but they're all neat.

[hard plume]

we met a guy a while back that said this about clodsire

[cloud lark]

Karrablast and Shelmet having such a close relationship like that is especially cool. They would probably be way more beloved if they simply evolved in proximity to one another rather than being a trade

[coarse estuary]

lol reminds me of all the people who tell me to erase my saves or make a new team because they didnt like the mons ive chosen for my casual playthrough

[wispy osprey]

scolipede is SO COOL

i used scolipede for the whole game in BW

[hard plume]

wouldn't be the first time a pokemon had a proximity evo

would be 100% down with more of those tbh

[cloud lark]

I keep forgetting about that one

[wispy osprey]

and pancham needs a dark-type in party to evolve

[cloud lark]

Mantine to me has always been one of the Pokemon that never takes up space in my brain, but I always appreciate whenever I remember

[hard plume]

Though I think its having two evolutions happening at once that I don't think has been attempted yet

in official games, anyway

[hard plume]

that clodsire comment was the reason why that person hated said pokemon btw

[cloud lark]

What I'm surprised hasn't been done yet is Pokemon actually combining when they evolve. Like what happens with Magnemite and Beldum lorewise but isn't backed up by gameplay

[hard plume]

...even though the pokemon that was getting memed on was wooper, not quagsire.

[hard plume]

You sir have an excellent point

allow me to give a counter argument, at least for beldum's case anyway.
....
HAVE YOU SEEN BELDUM'S CATCH RATE??

DUDE HAS A CATCH RATE ON THE LEVELS OF FRICKIN' LEGENDARIES

TELL SOMEONE THAT THEY HAVE TO HAVE TWO OF THOSE IN THEIR PARTY IN ORDER FOR ONE OF THEM TO EVOLVE WOULD BE HELL ON EARTH

Magnemite? Understandable. Beldum? OH GOD NO

[coarse estuary]

on an unrelated note, if i was to make a little like diy pokemon league based of of bw1 or bw2 who would be interested in joinin? how it would work is like we would all collectively do casual playthroughs of the chosen game pair with 13 people being chosen for gym leader elite 4 members and champ then throughout the playthrough after you beat that thing in the game you would do an emulator battle with the person who would give their own reward (if they are a gym leader)

[sweet crypt]

Pokemon vs 1 billion lions reference?

[last egret]

I forget what I had for dinner last Tuesday

You expect me to remember every single message I sent

[brisk hedge]

I’ll say what I said the last time you brought this up: that’s not even remotely an unpopular opinion

[broken crater]

Wait thats a thing

Since when does gmax exist

[smoky gyro]

I was today years old when I learnt that grass knot is contact

Its like how electro drift is also contact

Im not used to special atks making contact

[broken crater]

What about psyshock

It deals damage based on atk stat

[last egret]

You can’t expect me to remember every single thing I’ve said before. I’m in like 20 different servers

[broken crater]

Guys are we fr blaming a goldfish for bad memory

[last egret]

Exactly

I forgot what color shirt I wore last Thursday

[broken crater]

I dont

Its black

Bc I have only black shirts

Except 1 that I always wear on lazy sunday

[last egret]

Minimalism is probably more efficient

You never have to decide what u need to wear

[warm rose]

woo!

[unkempt egret]

since... december I think? it might have been jan or feb though

I don't have one yet myself though since I haven't found anyone trying to tackle one

also I think petal dance also makes contact but that one does make kind of sense with the move animation

[raven bison]

I'm playing Pokémon Y right now; this run I can only use Gen 6 Pokémon. These are my team.

I might want to change Amaura & Diggersby for something else later.

[unkempt egret]

looks good so far

[wispy osprey]

I thought you didn’t wear shirts

[broken crater]

Hey, its lazy sunday

[coarse estuary]

on a tuesday?

[wispy osprey]

ig alola is in a different time zone

[unkempt egret]

only in Moon/Ultra moon?

[sonic sky]

need to keep the shiny legendary hunt in pokemon sword

[coarse estuary]

ok for my final member of my bdsp team should it be glalie mamo or something else
the 5 members i have rn are empoleon, alakazam, evire rampardos and toxicroak. (going into veilstone for gym 3)

[sonic sky]

i just now realized you become the thumbnail of sword and shield once you beat the game

[tulip moss]

its been a thing in pokemon go for awhile

[broken crater]

I knew dynamax existed

But gmax is new for me

[hard plume]

welcome to gen 8

[unkempt egret]

yea as I said in GO it was some point in the past two "seasons"

also on swish you can also change the title screen by re-fighting the champion which is neat

this far back for normal dyna, I forget when exactly giganta was added

also doing a reverse nuzlocke of Vega and I SOMEHOW found a pineco (5%) before glachild (25%) on route 501 rofl

reverse nuz is basically i catch the last thing I see on a route instead of the first, playing with Viva for the 235 extra mons

[sonic sky]

i love the amount of legendaries

[unkempt egret]

heck I just realized I have like 9 mons and 5 of em are weak to ground

[pure plover]

it happened y'all 😭

[lost karma]

Hello, everyone! I am making my own pokemon fan game (rpgmaker) for the first time, and it's going to about remaking how everything works; changing the types, abilities, moves.. functions basically, without changing the pokemon (too much) or creating fakemon.

So far - i've remade the entire 18 types and i need your input.

Important: I understand that the list that i'll present to you, might look convoluted but it's my first time trying to both rebrand the types and remake their strengths and weakness to be based on logic and balance.

The types will be the first which will be changed and reworked -- and this first instance will be based more on logic (either concrete or far-fethced) and less on balance. Second instance is about balance, and rechanging their strengths, weaknesses, resistances and (possible) immunities, and this is where you (hopefully, if anyone responds to this) comes in.

Also, as you'll see; the types will be changed so that it's more than what the type initially represented; for example, i changed the water type to Liquid, so it can include oil, milk, tea, honey.. etc. While the fighting type is changed to martial, to represent both martial artists and martial laws (weapons of war/soldiers); Psychic has been rebranded to the Mystic type, which will not only incorporate Mental Powers but general magic as-well as Cosmic forces (Basically, instead of making a magic or cosmic type, both of those are integrated with this mystic type.)

---

Martial = Fighting | Liquid = Water | Nature = Grass | Energy | Cold = Ice | Toxic = Poison | Earth = Ground + Rock (merged) | Air = Flying | Exo (-skeleton) [Exoskeleton] = Bug | Metal = Steel | Beast = Dragon | Spectral = Ghost | Mystic = Psychic | Light = Fairy

[sweet crypt]

Tbf general magic and cosmic forces were already all Psychic moves

[sweet crypt]

Except for specifically moon based stuff

That's Fairy unless it's a signature move

[lost karma]

(i mean to put the pictures with the initial message lol, oops)

[sweet crypt]

Both Ice and Electric are now glass cannon types

[lost karma]

Yes, i know, the rebrands are not anything that special, just name changes so it fits more thematically and logically; it also allows me to change the other resistances, weaknesses or strengths easier

[sweet crypt]

Boltbeam brought to another level entirely

Fuck defensive prowess we ball

[lost karma]

Yeah....... that's why i said in my initial message that it might be convoluted at the end there. With the ice and electric type, i shot myself in the foot when i made those types the last ones to be remade

[sweet crypt]

I'm a fan of Ice continuing to be a glass cannon type

Though not so much Electric joining it as a glass cannon and arguably being even more of a glass cannon than Ice

But you could probably make it work

[lost karma]

what's crazy now, with my chart... that abomasnow went from 7 weaknesses to only 2

[sweet crypt]

Generally I just like the idea of a type leaning more in one direction than another

Also, Bug type Buff W

Ferrothorn is massively nerfed by this which is unfortunate

[lost karma]

Plus i'm planning to change so many abilities, stats and movesets; eventually, i can give the cold type a "Solstice" ability (like rain dance) alongside hail. Hail might boost a stat, while solstice can make up for cold's lacks of resistances

[sweet crypt]

Hail should boost SpA frfr

Actually nah

Make it boost Speed

[lost karma]

Exactly what i mean, i can give ferrothorn something that's unique to him which will make him good.

That's why i'm hyped for this revamp of mine... and why i want other people to help me

[sweet crypt]

Ferrothorn is already top tier usually is the thing

But its type just went from best defensive type to not great

[lost karma]

Maybe something to make it balanced? Either way, the types are just the first part of this revamp.

I get what you mean tho.

In due time... generally though, what do you think? For now, good, mid or bad?

[sweet crypt]

Quad weak to Fire and Ice, weak to Poison, Ground/Rock, resists Normal, Flying, Bug, Grass and Dragon and immune to Fairy

It isn't as bad as I thought but that's most definitely a massive step down

[lost karma]

Also, sorry for speaking so randomly, i have way too much energy rn

[sweet crypt]

I wish you listed what types resist each type

Since otherwise it's difficult to check since you need to check every type

[lost karma]

i can do that

[sweet crypt]

That said from what I see, Volcarona's STAB is not resisted by any monotype

So this is a Volcarona buff

So I cannot complain too much

[lost karma]

Wait, you mean "is resisted by", right?

[sweet crypt]

Yes

[lost karma]

alr

To take this project further, i believe it'd be best to post it on pokecommunity and eventually make my own discord (if it gains traction)

[sweet crypt]

Sadly Heatran still resists the type combo, even without Flash Fire

Wait nvm I am blind

The type MU vs Volcarona stays the same

Including needing to run Flash Fire for Fire

[lost karma]

@sweet crypt What do you think about the Beast type compared to the original dragon type? Did i make it stronger or is it fine?

[sweet crypt]

It's hard to make direct comparisons to normal

Since the entire type chart is different

So it's hard to say whether the types it is weak to/SE against/resists are more or less impactful

At least without a full analysis

[lost karma]

I see

i'm glad that you're atleast looking at it tho lol

[pure plover]

its just pokemon black!!

ive been playing pokemon since my childhood and im pushing 20 rn but this is my first shiny ever

ive never hunted i wanted one to approach me casually so it'd be more special

All of my main line shinies are from L:A and SV

?tag rule6

[ebon pond]

Make sure to follow the #rules!

Rule 6 DISALLOWED CONTENT: Resources to illegal content (ROMs, pirated movies, etc). We are sure that there are ways and means of finding these that do not involve a Pokémon Fan Game discord server.

[wheat salmon]

you can talk about many things, but not about roms.

[raven bison]

That's cool, good luck with that bro!.

[lost karma]

Thank you!

[unkempt egret]

--> delcatty

man with that addition I can probably just make the cat deck mono-fire rofl

if only I could find one tho

[pure temple]

sorry my bad

[coarse estuary]

I think you are miss understanding the rule. The rule only states you can't link to direct sites for roms. It doesn't say you can't talk about rom hacks or fan games

[wheat salmon]

i think there is a miss understanding yes, i've not talk about " other fan games " at all, it's the perfect chan for that, just i've already see people starting by talking about roms and start asking information about them, then the discussion degenerate, so i've just put a remember about roms.

[unkempt egret]

from what I remember my other chat disallowed discussion on the roms themselves, talking about hacks and where to get patches was fine but we may be more strict on it then that chat is

[wheat salmon]

from what i learn on others chans, even informations are " ressources " and that's bring some problem after that. But I will grant you that's a lot confusing and i've put my understanding / learning on sight. I will find more information and come back soon.

[wheat salmon]

So i've talking a bit about a clarification, and... talking is ok as long as you don't ask about " where " or " how " you can find it or post link... I'm sorry for that and i apologize, it was due to a different point of view of this case. Have a nice days guys

[wheat salmon]

So forget what i've say it's ok, wrong point of view and sorry for that.

[pure temple]

oh ok

[unkempt egret]

crit pursuit on my mon ya hate to see it

was a pre-nerf steel type too rip

[nova marlin]

lord have mercy

[unkempt egret]

good luck

also I'm glad viva removed the drill run on the first skarmory so the fire starter can actually exist against it

SIIIIIGH

it happened, shiny obtained

the exact same species I found in my JP run

I wanted the shiny sune but sadly was on the wrong route for it

-> jolly

hmmm that does line up with the steel branch so I have a mon to replace the one that just got pursuit'ed

and I guess I do lack a psychic now that I think about it

I dunno if viva changed it but I know vanilla still uses the 8192 odds

without the fairy type (vega was 9 years before swish) but kinda yea

Only real Pokémon fans would get this question right

Pokémon Movie
Which one of these Pokémon we’re not in the detective Pikachu movie.
(I am not counting any signs, shirts, or posters. Has to be an actual living and breathing Pokémon.)

[wispy osprey]

i think it was greninja that wasnt in the movie

i know for sure that Loudred was (they're the DJs in the club scene)

and i'm pretty sure Audino makes an appearance as a nurse or something

and i'm remembering vaporeon being in the movie at some point but i might be gaslighting myself

[sweet crypt]

Mfw I don't watch the Pokemon movies so I'm not a fan:

[unkempt egret]

I think vaporeon since the only eevee in it evolves into flareon I think? I know it's between the bottom two but I feel like one of them had like a tiny background cameo or somethin

[wispy osprey]

oh wait you're so right

greninja was definitely in the movie

so i think it is vaporeon

[graceful mirage]

I'm doing a monotype psychic run of scarlet here's me team so far.
Indeedee F
Armorouge
Malamar (cheated starter inkay)
Gardevoir
Gallade

I need a suggestion for my last slot

[unkempt egret]

hmmmm

you've covered yourself pretty well between gardevior (bug & dark) and indeedee (ghost)

my guess would be something like bronzong, bruxish, or veluza for a third souce of physical damage?

bronzong also gives you some nice physical bulk outside of arma and a set-up malamar

[unkempt egret]

after thinking about it for a bit, bronzong might also help out against the final boss (glad you clarified scarlet here) but you'll need to use indeedee to piviot into the mon I'm thinking of and you'll probably want a ghost resist berry for what follows

Looking at the final boss of each storyline, as well as the penultimate bosses of the gym storyline, team star storyline and Indigo Disc storyline...
||Arven's Mabostiff is problematic, as it outspeeds your entire team, has SE STAB vs 2 and SW Coverage vs the other 2. If you can, EV train Gallade or Gardevoir in Speed to be able to outspeed it, or get a Choice Scarf if one is available this early on. Unless you're willing to get a Hatterene, which has the exact same type as Gardevoir, there isn't much you can do about it. Hatterene's bulk should be high enough to tank even Tera Dark Crunch and it has more than enough SpA to OHKO in return with an SE STAB Fairy move.||
||As long as you keep Armarouge away from Veluza and Gallade away from Espathra and Gogoat, mainly the latter due to its Play Rough targeting Gallade's weaker PhysDef, you should be fine. Be wary of Avalugg's extreme physical bulk if Gallade is damaged. Bring healing items to heal between each E4 battle. Especially important for Poppy, who has 2 Pokemon that are neutral to Gallade, though Armarouge should be capable of handling the team. Be careful for the possibility of Sturdy Magnezone landing a paralysis with Discharge.||
||All 3 of Nemona's starter choices can be scary, due to their extremely strong STAB moves boosted by Tera. However, her Quaquaval does not have SE damage against more than 2 Pokemon, Meowscarada does not have Dark STAB, and Skeledirge is slow. Funnily, due to the slow speed of your team, Pawmot could be an issue, landing 1 strong hit if you don't have enough Speed EVs/Level lead. Lycanroc may also land a hit due to speed, but you have a Rock resist. Meowscarada will likely always land a hit due to its high speed.||
||Clavell's starters hold the same threat as Nemona's. Be careful of Shell Smash Polteageist (always present) and Houndoom (present unless the starter is Skeledirge). Gyarados can also pose a threat, with high SpD against a team with 3 special attackers and Crunch||

Continuing in another message...

[graceful mirage]

for the issues with speed I may try to run trick room

i might run low speed natures on some of them

[unkempt egret]

are you thinking ||mabossiff has speed EV's? I don't recall any trainers in the maingame have any EV's outside of HP and maboss's speed stat is only 85 (on-par with gardevior/gallade, and that fight is over level 50 so it can be capped if the IVs got bad rolls)||

from what I remember ||clavell's lead isn't super dangerous but it does carry foul play so if you're gonna set up, don't do it with gallade. everything else latios said also applies though if you don't plan on a set-up strat.||

just checked. ||252 EV's in HP, hardy nature with a 25 IV in speed. not too difficult for the ga's to outspeed even with just a vitamin boost, but tera boosted crunch will put a dent in both with their low physical defenses. and unless you close combat it with gallade there's a decent chance it'll still live a hit.||

thankfully most of your other bad matchups besides poppy come pretty early (Dark's at level 20, bug's at level 14 or have some other gimmicks on there like ghost does)

incidentally I'd still call bug a bit scary because you pretty much have to ||rush down that teddursa before fury cutter gets out of hand|| but if this isn't in some kinda permadeath setting it shouldn't be too bad

I think you can actually get access to gallade at level 20 if you go snooping hard enough for the dawn stone though so dark basically just goes Existisn't* rofl. the titan might be a bit more scary but I forget if that has any actual dark moves

also I just now realized I'm not sure how I'm gonna handle water encounters in my reverse nuzlocke

[sweet crypt]

||Penny is using an Eeveelution team. She may be the only trainer that has a handicap heavier than you. That said, be wary of Sylveon, as it has SE damage for your entire team, save Indeedee. (Moonblast/Shadow Ball). Its low speed should allow you to win anyways. Umbreon may be threatening if it wasn't an Umbreon and thus had low offences, but still be wary of STAB Dark Pulses. You have 3 Pokemon that handle it though lmfao||
||AI Sada leads with Slither Wing, so lead with Gallade on it to target its weaker Physical Defence while avoiding SE damage from Bug. Scream Tail's bulk and Psychic resistance could cause issues, so you may want to prepare for it to some extent. Be extremely cautious of Brute Bonnet, as it has STAB Sucker Punch. Indeedee should hopefully handle Flutter Mane, but if you're scared, bring Farigiraf just in case. Roaring Moon outspeeds your entire team and your Dark resists are physically frail. Along with that, it will have a Protosynthesis Attack boost and Edgequak Coverage. You may want Hatterene, Trick Room or Trick Room Hatterene for this.||
||Ogerpon will outspeed you in all forms unless you have a lot of Speed EVs, and the stat boosts will make it quite tough to deal with, especially Hearthflame's Attack boost. You may want to get Trick Room up for this one... If you're allowing yourself to, you could go for Iron Leaves to try to set up Swords Dance, but you will need to burn Tera on the lead as the 1st form it takes is Hearthflame||

||Kieran's Incineroar could be an issue, but if Gallade has Inner Focus, it is immune to both Intimidate and Fake Out. You can see what happens from here. Make sure to keep it away from the lead position, as Dragonite will spam Rain boosted Hurricanes. Speaking of Dragonite, it will have Multiscale. If you're allowing yourself to use it Solgaleo's Sunsteel Strike will bypass it and deal big damage, and it can also deal with Grimmsnarl and even Incineroar if you give it Close Combat. Keep in mind that Grimmsnarl is Focus Sash. Kill Porygon-Z with Gallade ASAP. Hydrapple may have been an issue if it wasn't Tera Fighting. You get bonus points for getting Latios, because I really like Latios.||
||Idk what advice to give for Terapagos, apart from that its type goes from Normal in Phase 1 to Psychic in Phase 2 to Water in Phase 3||

[unkempt egret]

||yea flutter mane was the one I was thinking of with the bronzong but indeedee can handle that, it'll just be a slugfest since it's 55/135 bulk you're firing unSTAB'ed shadow balls at. Roaring moon is another difficult one, I think Latios might be right with trick room since that 119 speed stat is a tough nut to outrun. you can also try to tech a tera with gardevior to try to tank crunch but I have a feeling you'll get mulched even with tera fairy.||

also, ||brute bonnet also has payback in addition to sucker punch so I wouldn't feel super safe setting up on it either. that's another scary one.||

[sweet crypt]

||Latios can actually outspeed Roaring Moon with EVs, which doesn't apply to the current members of the team. However, Roaring Moon has great special bulk, and even then, Latios is Post AI Sada, as you need to beat both AI Sada and Ogerpon to gain access to Indigo Disk, where you unlock Latios.||

[unkempt egret]

right. thankfully ||sada doesn't have any EV's (though 25-30 IV's) so that does help ease things up a little bit||

my brain just got unhinged for a second because it suggested ||veluza filet away while scream tail is screaming at how low its offenses are||

[sweet crypt]

||105/101 Special bulk is a bit dicey, you may want EVs and Dragon Fang/Soul Dew/Specs if you do somehow get Latios early||

[sweet crypt]

||Simply don't get Sucker Punched fr||

[unkempt egret]

...dang I didn't know espathra had 105 speed I thought it was in the 80-90 range rofl

[sweet crypt]

Hatterene is probably one of the best Pokemon here I'm feeling

[unkempt egret]

that being said yanking a scream tail of your own might not be a terrible option there but

[sweet crypt]

A lot of the issues I mentioned seemed to be resolvable by adding a Hatterene

[unkempt egret]

I like how I just passivley assumed scream tail learned charm rofl

[sweet crypt]

Hatterene may even be bulky enough to tank ||Roaring Moon||

[unkempt egret]

noble roar doesn't nerf quite as hard

[sweet crypt]

Since Hatterene's bulk is pretty good

[unkempt egret]

57/95 bulk on the physical end

[sweet crypt]

Though tbf I'm thinking of Competitive where it's gonna be 252 HP 252 Defence

Like 100% of the time

[unkempt egret]

...dang I didn't realize it's HP stat was that low

[sweet crypt]

That's kinda crazy to me ngl

Because that mf keeps tanking physical hits like crazy in competitive

EVs go such a long way

[unkempt egret]

scream tail has 115/99 there but it also has attacking stats of like 65

[sweet crypt]

Hatterene can just Trick Room anyways its fine

[wispy osprey]

but don’t forget, scream tail also has perish song 😄

[unkempt egret]

that being said I can see trick room doing work th-

[sweet crypt]

And if Hatterene doesn't fucking OHKO ||Roaring Moon|| instantly I'd be shocked

[unkempt egret]

I mean you can also go gonzo mode and do that

but probably better to save that one for Keiran to force a double switch

[wispy osprey]

or use Gothitelle -

[sweet crypt]

OK but I'm trying to work with the 5 current Pokemon

So like

[unkempt egret]

meanwhile my fight with keiran was basically just

[sweet crypt]

No Shadow Tag Perish Song sadly

[wispy osprey]

I just feel like it’s worth a mention 🤷

[unkempt egret]

(I was looking for a gen 8/9 one but that one's sillier)

[sweet crypt]

My first Kieran fight was me being hyped up about all the rumours and bringing shit like Calyrex-S and instantly stomping him

[unkempt egret]

in my case I was doing NFE only and ran focus energy seadra

[sweet crypt]

So uhh

Yeah

I probably should fight him but more fairly

[sweet crypt]

Focus Energy Scope Lens Sniper 🔥

[unkempt egret]

I think he did get some things going though figuring out that was fun

[sweet crypt]

We're NOT dropping Dracos with this one because that's only for Kingdra

[unkempt egret]

and also getting good use out of A-graveler (wide guard) and electabuzz (follow me)

[graceful mirage]

Kieran might actually be tough this time the first time I completely stomped him

Although tbh the classic armorouge indeedee F trick room core with expanding force might just kill Kieran whole team except for incin

[sweet crypt]

Grimmsnarl:

Multiscale on Dragonite:

[graceful mirage]

Ah fuck I forgor

I forgor about grimmsnarl

I'm not concerned about dragonite

[sweet crypt]

It's getting one good hit off on you unless you double target it turn 1

And if you double target it turn 1, Trick Room isn't up

[graceful mirage]

I could have follow me on indeedee and make ceruledge use trick room. Indeedee F is quite bulky and might be able to take it

Sorry not ceruledge

Armorouge

Then indeedee can helping hand expanding force which should be enough to deal with multistage turn 2

And I keep doing that until incin or grimmsnarl come in

Hmm I really don't have an answer for grimmsnarl

By the time I fight Kieran I could probably grab iron crown

Iirc

Ah shit wait I'm in scarlet

I can't grab iron crown

Fuck

Can you even get metagross in scarlet?

You can in the indigo disk

Smh where's my psychic type ogerpon

[supple basalt]

The text on Luminious Spring where it prevents you from evolving because of plot gets funnier when you're a pokemon that can't evolve :P

[graceful mirage]

Man I forgot how dripless you are in scarlet and violet

[supple basalt]

dripless?

[graceful mirage]

The fashion sucks

[supple basalt]

Truth!

[graceful mirage]

My only four options are all terrible

[supple basalt]

And the only way to get more is with the dlc bleh

[graceful mirage]

I have those extra 4 too and they aren't even better

At least the orange suit covered in orange patterns is funny I guess

[supple basalt]

I like to use the teal mask clothes but I also dished out a lot of work to get the colorful fancy one lol

So I'm obligated to wear it

Literally in Alola, when Looker gave be a shitton of money I spent it all on clothes. What S/V did to the clothing was awful :/

[graceful mirage]

Some of the BB academy ones are fine I guess but it's gonna be awhile before I get there

Swsh sucks but it did have fantastic fashion

[supple basalt]

I forgot you got clothes from BB academy

Cause why wear clothes when you can run around as god

Just mind controlling Arceus

[unkempt egret]

I mean Scarlet/Violet does have a lot of customization... shame that the most important area to customize is the only one you're given very limited options on "for plot reasons" which kinda blows the whole thing up lol

also I thought you said "what S/V did to coloring was awful" and compared to alola uh i have some words rofl then I re-read and was like "oh nevermind"

since in alola colors were both game-locked (Sun got warm colors, Moon got cold colors) and you had to use festival plaza to get different shades or colors from the other game

[coarse estuary]

going to go mop the floor with the orthworm then go finally catch a bisharp so i can use kingambit in my mono dark replay of violet

[unkempt egret]

also nice

meanwhile one of my runs accidentally gave Arven a Moment

(context: I used soak before switching out and 100% forgot arven existed for a second)

[raven bison]

No way, I'm lucky, I only use one ultra ball & I caught ||Yveltal||.

Bro rage quit .

https://tenor.com/view/oh-come-on-lysandre-rage-quit-gif-25494766

I guess I'm going to replace my Aurorus with ||Yveltal||. Damn, Aurorus sucks, it has 2 quadruple weaknesses. I don't know how it's supposed to be used.

[sweet crypt]

Gonna do a Groudon run

See if it lives up to the hype

Personally, I think its relatively low Special Defence will prevent it from being as good as the hype built it up to be, as Eternatus and Mega Ray both have strong special moves

It also doesn't really have a great move for Mega Ray

It does, however, have Morning Sun

One of Groudon's biggest weaknesses was being a more defensive Pokemon yet not having reliable recovery

And now, having reliable recovery that is boosted by its Sun?

It is far stronger

Getting a lot of rare egg moves because I pulled on the rare egg move banner, Boomburst on Altaria, Flower Trick on (Hisuian) Lilligant, Eruption on Salazzle and Thunderclap on Pincurchin, as well as Mienshao's HA

S+ luck and it's the worst item luck I've had in ages

Why do I even try...

Ooh blue shiny Mimikyu

I think Mega Ray's only special move is Hurricane

Which is only at halved accuracy if I swap Groudon out and back in for Desolate Land, assuming I have the primal by then

Well not halved accuracy

Straight 50%

While it's usually 70%

[sweet crypt]

Pdon obtained

I want to note that since Sacred Fire is a non contact move, it has 200 BP vs Fluffy mons

As luck would have it, the evil team this run is Team Star

Since Rayquaza 1 uses Dragon Ascent, Pdon handles it with ease

Rival's Kingambit rolled Supreme Overlord AND Sucker Punch, annoyingly

[sweet crypt]

Yeah uhh

Mega Rayquaza tried to Hurricane a singular time

And had 4 turns to use it

The 1 turn it did use it, it missed

Y'know if it was using it those 4 turns maybe it'd have OHKOd me eventually

Considering how much damage fucking Boomburst Swellow did

Hurricane Mega Ray is gonna hit a lot harder than that

Thankfully, I had a good strategy for Eternatus
