#

And then like

#

Actually 3rd can be a few things

#

Klinklang, Bastiodon, Gunfisk at the top of my head

supple basalt
#

Proud of this team

unkempt egret
#

looks good so far

sweet crypt
#

Bro wtf

#

I've been sleeping on Corsola

#

It's better than literally every Water type I mentioned while talking about potential worst Water types

#

Except for Qwilfish and Basculin

#

Which I was only mentioning to point out how they're far better than most realise

#

And evidently Corsola is too

#

I mean yeah it's ZU

#

But it actually finds niches in ZU

#

I expected it to be absolutely worthless

lavish dune
#

the insurgence e4 is pissing me off

  1. theyre weather teams, cool idea but their movesets are annoying
  2. sand e4 opening- Hippowdon with the moveset stealth rock, slack off, whirlwind, and earthquake
  3. cant even overlevel, their team always matches your highest level

why???

sweet crypt
#

Idk if you've noticed but Insurgence typically tries to use competitively viable movesets and I think EVs?

lavish dune
#

not to mention perfect IVs and shit yeah

sweet crypt
#

And that Hippowdon is basically just a bog standard Hippowdon set

#

Hmm...

lavish dune
#

doesnt make it any less annoying

sweet crypt
#

Actually, is Wugtrio worse than Lumineon?

#

Like if you were to keep making tiers below ZU

#

Who would see usage first

#

Lumineon or Wugtrio

unkempt egret
#

probably wugtrio

sweet crypt
#

Wugtrio has better stats

#

But Lumineon has Pivoting, Storm Drain and Encore

unkempt egret
#

yea an attacking stat of 80 compared to Lol and a speed stat of 120 compared to 90

sweet crypt
unkempt egret
#

but yea its abilities and utility are better than Wug who only has its stats on its side

sweet crypt
#

They're also both frail

#

And both will fall quickly to neutral hits

#

But Wug will fall quicker

unkempt egret
#

I would say "isn't floatzel" but then floatzel has swift swim and a 115 speed stat

#

so floaty's kinda like if both of them pulled a fusion thing

sweet crypt
#

The main difference is Floatzel has somewhat existent bulk

#

And better moves

#

Mainly for murdering things

#

Yknow, like Wave Crash

#

And since most of Floatzel's bulk in in HP, it can afford to take recoil

unkempt egret
#

Lumineon - 69/76/86
Wugtrio - 35/50/70
Floatzel - 85/55/50

#

it's in the middle but yea the moves and ability are key

sweet crypt
#

Floatzel has like Lumineon level bulk and Wugtrio level offences

unkempt egret
#

also dang does lumineon really have 3 69's in its stats

sweet crypt
#

And an offensive moveset that sorta resembles a combo of the 2

lavish dune
#

why would you need to use will-o-wisp 4 times in a row

unkempt egret
#

also since we did duraludon a week or two ago uh things more physically bulky than wugtrio

sweet crypt
#

As in babies?

#

Alright, bet

#

Here's a good one

#

Ditto

#

Paras

#

Togepi

#

Vanillite

unkempt egret
#

Paras, Vanillite (barely but still), Dewpider, Togepi (yes baby), voltorbs, kakuna, mudkip, vibrava, partner pikachu (which says more about PP but), deoxys-N, eevee, the afermentioned ledian, ok I'll stop at A-raichu

sweet crypt
#

Fidough

unkempt egret
#

I think that says a lot about where I stopped since dang I assumed A-raichu was bulkier than 60/50/85

sweet crypt
#

Yamask seems funny

unkempt egret
#

Generic_Electric_Stats.txt

sweet crypt
#

Applin

#

Baltoy's actually bulkier both physically and specially

#

Rather insultingly, so is Morelull

unkempt egret
#

also casual reminder that 2/3 of the dugtrio forms have abilities that only activate when taking contact damage

#

...and in both cases replace ARENA TRAP

#

which is a mechanic-breaking ability, and the one that singles revolves around to boot!

sweet crypt
#

Yknow, Wugtrio is extremely similar in stats to Sneasel

#

20 less HP, 5 more Attack, 5 less Defence, 15 more SpA, 5 less SpD, 5 more Speed

#

It's like a more offensively minmaxed Sneasel

#

And yes, it is frailer

#

Than SNEASEL

#

Famously frail, fast offensive NFE Ice type Sneasel

lavish dune
#

fuck you, depressed mr. bean lookin ass

unkempt egret
#

giovanni but

modern oar
#

What even is that?

lavish dune
#

pokemon insurgence

narrow pine
#

Anytime I've tried that game I do not get far as I don't find it very good

lavish dune
#

ok

terse pollen
#

It's stupid difficult

#

I never made it past the first gym

marsh viper
#

Insurgence was decently fun, but the game tries WAY too hard to be edgy

lavish dune
#

agreed, but the music goes hard af

nimble coral
#

does anyone else here play pokemon tgom

sweet crypt
#

Which isn't even how Insurance is spelt

past cairn
#

If y'all could only own 5 of the Pokemon games which 5 would U pick (mainline only)

wild ore
#

Ah fuck

#

I didn’t read games

past cairn
#

No the games not Pokemon heehee

wild ore
#

I thought he said pokemon

#

FACK I CANT READ

wild ore
#

So

#

Gotta take omega ruby and X

#

Those games were fun

#

Then ultra sun which was fun and kinda hard

#

Then.

#

Fuh

#

I’ve only played the gen 6 games and above

#

Even tho my dad has the other gens that I can play at anytime

past cairn
wild ore
#

Ok

#

But like

#

I TRIED key word tried

#

To play soul silver

#

But

#

Bro

#

The leveling

#

Is

#

So

#

SLOW

#

LIKE

#

It hurts my soul to do so much grinding for one level

past cairn
#

What were U going up against???

#

And what we're U leveleing

wild ore
#

Ok so uhh

#

Call me a dumbass but

#

I did the rival fight before the bug gym

#

In which I spammed sleep with leers

#

With my lvl 16 tododile

#

So yes

#

I forgot to do the bug gym before the rival

past cairn
#

What were the level of the Pokemon around u

wild ore
#

Like

#

8

past cairn
#

Oh dude that's why it's not the games fault Ur in a area Ur overlevel for

#

Most games would be like that

wild ore
#

My rival

#

Had a lvl 18 starter

#

That’s the problem with soul silver

#

The wild pkm don’t scale

#

That’s why leveling is so hard

#

You primarily need to do it against trainers

past cairn
#

No Ur over level for the area not progress

wild ore
#

Twin

#

The gym and rival fight were way higher then the wild pokemon

#

In soul silver

#

The wild pokemon

#

Do

#

Not

#

Scale

#

Alr gtg

flint lagoon
#

so in This Gym of Mine the Fighting type options are Riolu, Tyrogue, and Makuhita

brisk cradle
#

Riolu

flint lagoon
#

yeah I am thinking ahead since there are some trainers with the dragon/steel Aron line

brisk cradle
#

Lucario is lucario, bunch of management to get the chan you want out of tyrogue

flint lagoon
#

and that is weak to ground and fighting

brisk cradle
#

and idk what hariyama does

nimble coral
#

40 dmg

brisk cradle
#

i have bagon, gible, or deino

flint lagoon
#

yuppp

#

dragon rage is hell

nimble coral
#

ik but i got syther he outspeeds

brisk cradle
#

shelgon at 30, salamence at 50, gabite at 24, garchomp at 48, zweilous at 50, hydreigon at 64

#

im doing bagon

nimble coral
#

50 48 or 64

brisk cradle
#

im doing 50

#

no way in hell im waiting until level 50 for a mid-evo

flint lagoon
#

know what I rarely do things with fighting type so I may as well go Fighting

brisk cradle
#

what is this pocket dimension oak puts you in to choose your starter?

#

is it just a really dark room with glowing pedestals and an ethereal voice?

flint lagoon
#

okay first off my starter has a Speed raising nature. that's fine

brisk cradle
#

uhh i got a +spe -spdf which results in level 5 bagon having a spdf of 8

#

if anything has a special move im cooked

flint lagoon
#

yeah I got a special def lowering nature too. but speed increase is good

brisk cradle
#

true i just outsped a starly twice

nimble coral
#

ive played for fifteen (ingame) days

#

and they are hard

#

i chose the grl

#

which means i get harder trainers

brisk cradle
#

wait choosing the girl pc gives you harder trainers?

flint lagoon
#

omg I fought 3 trainers on the way to town and ended in 2 health left

brisk cradle
#

1 trainer and 1 wild pokemon

#

i lost to a level 7 yawnma

flint lagoon
#

at least I got some good exp ig

#

I picked Riolu

#

and he learned metal claw on the way

#

now to find out what the type move is

brisk cradle
#

sent back to the ship i got a potion now

nimble coral
#

what lvl does axew evolve

brisk cradle
#

38 and 48

flint lagoon
#

signature move is Brick Break

#

for fighting gym

nimble coral
#

wow

#

lvl 38 then just 10 levels more

#

cool

brisk cradle
#

HELL YEAH

flint lagoon
#

???

brisk cradle
#

my signature move is dragon claw

nimble coral
#

lots of pokemon can learn that

#

...

flint lagoon
#

also what gen is this game following so I know what Pokemon to look for that can learn Brick Break

nimble coral
#

imagine ice

brisk cradle
#

i might be a lil shidded

flint lagoon
#

huh

brisk cradle
#

at least gen 5

#

bc axew

nimble coral
#

is drudiknaw before or with axew

brisk cradle
#

nimble coral
#

the pokemon drudinaw

#

lie what gen is it from

brisk cradle
#

druddigon?

nimble coral
#

yes

brisk cradle
#

also gen 5

nimble coral
#

sorry about my spelling i just saw him a split second and then a ran away

brisk cradle
#

dragon claw is amazing

flint lagoon
#

oh

#

there is a guy in the Pokemart that sells evolution items btw

#

including metal coat

nimble coral
#

yes

brisk cradle
#

theres a guy in the tall building to the right of the town hall that sells stat items

#

its all 10k though

flint lagoon
#

oh I might have to buy this locked this lady sells since Riolu evolves with friendship

#

heyo, Gengar can learn brick break if this game is going by gen 7 move rules

brisk cradle
#

nice

flint lagoon
#

and the second hit was crit and the ghastly I was thinking of catching died

#

rip

brisk cradle
#

theres a whole wiki

flint lagoon
#

yeah but I don't feel like it

#

found a cave near the starting area and it had a Golett in it

#

may try and catch one

brisk cradle
#

ok so the pokemon go to gen 8

flint lagoon
#

oo nice

brisk cradle
#

this wiki does not give me all the choices i have

#

its only telling me the final evos that can learn dragon claw

flint lagoon
#

Golett caught

#

yesss it can learn Brick Break

brisk cradle
#

oh balls im done for

flint lagoon
#

what happened?

brisk cradle
#

i just threw level 7 bagon into a level 24 dragonair

nimble coral
brisk cradle
#

yeah i got caught by a trainer trying to get into dragon's den

flint lagoon
#

dang

#

I ran into the regional Aron in the cave

#

caught it, but it can't learn Brick Break sadly

brisk cradle
#

i've encountered a druddigon

nimble coral
brisk cradle
#

bagon got bit and fainted

nimble coral
#

because it has hands

flint lagoon
#

true

nimble coral
#

but then again this is pokemon

flint lagoon
#

checked the wiki and it didn't show what moves it can learn via tm

nimble coral
#

wooper can learn ice punch

brisk cradle
#

i just got slammed by a level 18 jumpluff with fairy wind

#

welp im out of pokeballs

flint lagoon
#

I just bought 10 Pokeballs after using the 2 I had gotten from someone

#

I also got the free fishing rods from the guy in the area to the right of the city

brisk cradle
#

i spent my money on potions

#

bagon fainted again

flint lagoon
#

speaking of the woopy boi though

#

quagsire can learn brick break

brisk cradle
#

none of these children will give me enough money for pokeballs

nimble coral
#

who did you get as your supervisor

#

for the gym

brisk cradle
#

the gym guide?

#

the girl

flint lagoon
#

got the gym guy

brisk cradle
#

the problem is i need pokemon and dragon types dont like staying in balls

nimble coral
#

you dont need dragon types

#

you can get something to learn dragon clw

brisk cradle
#

true but its easier to get dragon types than know which pokemon learn dragon claw

#

bagon keeps getting obliterated

nimble coral
#

beat up all the little Timmys and Timmyettas's

flint lagoon
#

pft I have caught two Pokemon that can learn Brick Break but only once they are fully evolved

#

Wooper and Tympole

nimble coral
#

...

#

Wooper doesent have hands

flint lagoon
#

time to go back and and continue looking

#

I said 'once fully evolved'

nimble coral
#

wait you can use your fighting type without it learning brick break

#

or am i confused

flint lagoon
#

idk, I caught a Golett that learned Brick break, but I think I need to still catch a third mon that can learn it now

nimble coral
#

ok you can use any fighting type for your gym, regardless if it knows Brick Break and 2 that know brick break

flint lagoon
#

yeah fighting types and anything that isn't fighting has to be able to use brick break

nimble coral
#

yeah

flint lagoon
#

apparently Sandshrew can learn brick Break

#

there's my third Pokemon to be able to start doing battles at the gym with

brisk cradle
#

bagon still struggling

nimble coral
#

rip bagon

brisk cradle
#

i might as well teach it frustration

nimble coral
#

yo wait

#

actually

flint lagoon
#

good strat

nimble coral
#

becuase if you lose battles it hates yu more

#

which makes you win

brisk cradle
#

i lose friendship by letting him faint

#

so he just has to faint more

nimble coral
#

ye

#

but faint by wild pokemon

brisk cradle
#

ofc

flint lagoon
#

oooo a shroomish

nimble coral
#

imagine seeing the gym leader that you couldn't beat get killed by a Yanmega

#

over and over

brisk cradle
#

did that

nimble coral
#

oh did you fix the fonts?

brisk cradle
#

yeah my fonts have been fixed

nimble coral
#

cool

brisk cradle
#

im talking about dying to a yanmega

nimble coral
#

no just asking

flint lagoon
#

okay trying to catch a shroomish is pain

#

leech seed is a pain dfor when you want to lower the health of something you want to catch

nimble coral
#

omg

#

syther is a trade evo

#

with the metal coat

flint lagoon
#

game you underestimate how many times I am willing to f12 just so I don't waste balls trying to catch a stupid Shroomish

brisk cradle
#

this game is testing how many times i'll lose to a stunfisk before i crash out

flint lagoon
#

early game shroomish is pain

#

stun spore, absorb, leech seed

#

half my team is weak to grass btw

brisk cradle
#

bagon's awful spdf means mud-shot takes out half his health

nimble coral
#

um i cant trade to evo my syther

brisk cradle
#

yup

nimble coral
#

How to evolve Scyther
To evolve Scyther into Scizor in Pokémon This Gym of Mine, follow these steps:
Hold Metal Coat: Ensure Scyther is holding the Metal Coat item.
Level Up: Level up Scyther while it is holding the Metal Coat.
Max Happiness: Achieve maximum happiness in the battle.
No Trading Needed, cool

brisk cradle
#

mhm

nimble coral
#

i found it

#

syther going to sweep

flint lagoon
#

okay finally

#

I spammed Sandshrew's sand attack on the shroomish so it couldn't land any leech seeds on riolu

brisk cradle
#

i can finally afford a singular pokeball

flint lagoon
#

Tynamo? -checks things- huh

brisk cradle
#

of course i had to run into a mono fairy type

flint lagoon
#

Electross can learn Brick Break. so I guess I am catching this thingy

brisk cradle
#

i just lost to a rattata

flint lagoon
#

oof

#

I need to find something that isn't ground type that I can teach Brick Break to as soon as I catch it

#

most of my team currently has to wait until they evolve in order to learn it

brisk cradle
#

stg im gonna have a salamence by the time i can open my gym for the first tim

#

||GOD||DAMN FAIRY TYPES DUDE

nimble coral
#

catcha aron

#

wait im dumb its steel/dragon

brisk cradle
#

that involves having money which i have none of

#

the bitch took my 288 dollars

nimble coral
#

do beating up pokemon give you money?

flint lagoon
#

oh grace

brisk cradle
#

no

flint lagoon
#

Timburr

brisk cradle
#

you get money from trainer battles

flint lagoon
#

finally a fighting type

nimble coral
#

maybe just start your gym and see what happens

brisk cradle
#

i cant

#

i only have bagon

nimble coral
#

most trainers have a rattata

brisk cradle
#

not the ones in miser marsh

nimble coral
#

or like starly

brisk cradle
#

and i fought all the trainers in new day plain

nimble coral
#

miser marsh is for whan you reach day 15

brisk cradle
#

well miser marsh is day 1 now

nimble coral
#

just try and open the gym

#

you cant lose your gym from the first day

brisk cradle
#

i still need 2 more pokemon

nimble coral
#

o

#

i forgot

brisk cradle
#

why must wild pokemon scale with my level

#

i sold my only item (antidote) for $100 and i just dropped it running away from a stunfisk

nimble coral
flint lagoon
#

okay, the regional Onix does not want to be caught in regular Pokeballs. noted

brisk cradle
#

Smeltix looks cool

flint lagoon
#

I don't even know if it could learn brick break but I am not wasting all of my Pokeballs trying to catch one

brisk cradle
#

smeltix slammed bagon

flint lagoon
#

I am keeping the regional Aron on my team cause I know regular Aggron can learn Brick Break

nimble coral
brisk cradle
flint lagoon
#

oh hi Heracross in the first area

nimble coral
flint lagoon
#

yupp

#

sadly couldn't catch him. gunna f12 and try again so I don't waste balls

#

I am making sure to save before encounters

#

ooo, there's a sooth bell in the first area

nimble coral
#

where ?

#

wait i cant hold metal coat and sooth bell

flint lagoon
#

in the grass area above the water on the left side

nimble coral
#

?tag friendship

ebon pondBOT
#

dynoError No tag friendship found.

flint lagoon
#

umbal chinchou is uglyyy

nimble coral
#

i call demon chinchou

smoky gyro
#

Thanks game thats very nice of you

nimble coral
#

chinchou looks like this

flint lagoon
#

also Umbal Chinchou knows Thunderwave, Super Sonic, and Bite

#

it's basically a zubat

nimble coral
#

yeah its dark electric

#

it's probably umbalian chinchou

flint lagoon
#

oh um

#

so I have that Aron right

#

it knows dragon rage

#

I went to use it in a wild battle to gain exp

#

and I used the dragon rage attack

#

but now an error message keeps popping up

#

rip

nimble coral
#

show

flint lagoon
#

too late I quickly pressed f12 at one point to reset it

#

once I save I can try it again in another battle

nimble coral
#

ok

#

also rip

flint lagoon
#

that's what happens. if you click the OK or X the window it makes the Aron try to use Dragon Rage again and causes the window to pop up again

nimble coral
#

...

#

well, I can't really help more unless I have a version of your save to see

#

what happens

flint lagoon
#

rip. it's fine

#

I just have to not use Dragon rage for cheese

nimble coral
#

wait i have 1 question did you fight a trainer or a wild pokemon

flint lagoon
#

wild mon

#

both times

nimble coral
#

ddi yuo save before

flint lagoon
#

yup

nimble coral
#

...

flint lagoon
#

dude I've been saving a lot

nimble coral
#

okay i have 0 idea

flint lagoon
#

but this should only be a problem if an enemy trainer's dragon rage causes an issue

nimble coral
#

maybe the animation

flint lagoon
#

if it's just whenever I use it, then I can just avoid it

nimble coral
#

or maybe some code is broken

flint lagoon
#

found a second heracross after much searching

#

made me waste all my pokeballs and didn't get caught

#

btw, the Golett I caufght has Iron Fist

nimble coral
#

does it has punch boosting ability

#

?

flint lagoon
#

ye

nimble coral
#

noice

flint lagoon
#

any punching moves get boosted

#

just learned Shadow Punch

nimble coral
#

have you opend your gym?

flint lagoon
#

nuu

#

I wanted to even out the levels of my mons first and catch some stuff

nimble coral
#

ok

#

im on day 22

flint lagoon
#

ohh

#

um

#

level 13 and my Riolu is evolving

#

S-Sure I'll take Aura Sphere

nimble coral
#

cool

smoky gyro
#

Bro has been neutered

flint lagoon
#

nice

smoky gyro
#

Its honestly so mean

#

But its funny

#

Therefore its okay

#

Lmao

flint lagoon
#

one of the dangers of having low PP moves

#

they can be strong/useful

#

but you can put yourself in a ditch real quick

smoky gyro
#

None of us wants to forfeit lmao

#

I dont know what tera he was but he couldve technically teraed

#

Away from ghost

#

So seismic toss can hit

#

The game was just sealed honestly

#

Like 50 rounds ago

fierce chasm
#

lol, btw a question, wat if u throw a shuckle and blissey in it, but give blissey assault vest, and let shuckle use gaurd split on blissey, would that be valid (asuming this can work during trick room)

supple basalt
#

I'm getting more addicted to Pokerouge the further I get lol

#

I'm on fight 88 at the moment

nimble coral
#

how's my pokerouge going? sidenote what does the golden pokeball do?

terse pollen
#

You get the golden pokeball every 50 waves, and it stacks at 3

#

Each golden pokeball lets you choose between more items after a round

#

So at the start you get 1 out of 3 and by the end you get 1 out of 6

nimble coral
#

ah so thats why i have 4 items

terse pollen
#

Yep

#

Btw you can hover over items at the top left to see what they do

nimble coral
#

also fire paldaen tauros is op

#

ive been solo'ing with him

modern oar
nimble coral
#

wait ima show you him

modern oar
#

I used a Paldeon Tauros Fire Breed to get to wave 170.

nimble coral
#

i gave him a black belt and a soul dew

#

170

#

what was the rest of your team?

#

this is my whole team

modern oar
nimble coral
#

how do yuo get dynamax

modern oar
#

I had only fire types when I faced Cress, which is why I lost.

modern oar
nimble coral
#

and same for terrastalazaion and mega-ing right?

modern oar
#

The Dynamax Band allows you to get Max Mushrooms.

modern oar
nimble coral
#

because i fought a breeder with a terrastalized cleffa

modern oar
nimble coral
modern oar
#

If you lose to that, I believe you lose the run.

#

There is an option if you want it to be less unforgiving though, but I won't tell you how you enable that.(It allows you to retry from the start of battle if you lose)

nimble coral
#

...

#

ok

modern oar
#

I mean, I did say it is a setting, so it should be easy to find out how to enable it yourself if you actually look at the settings.

nimble coral
#

no i cant beat it

#

i almost died and then closed out the window

#

how do i back out

#

wait il just rouge ball it

supple basalt
#

Guys I'm screwed the giratina girl lowered the levels of all my pokemon and it's just been MASSIVE struggle ever since

modern oar
#

I may do another run of Pokerogue eventually, but I really don't feel like doing one for a while.

nimble coral
#

yes i caught it im free

#

the run goes on

supple basalt
#

I've come so far and I'm going to white out to Whitney

#

Which feels incredibly poetic lol

modern oar
#

Well, nothing that can really be done about that I guess.

supple basalt
#

Can you tell who my carriers are? XD

nimble coral
#

...

#

nice team

supple basalt
#

Thanks

Boutta lose it but I also hatched a Mew which was nice

nimble coral
#

stoutland is good

#

also im fighting olean from swrd/sheild

supple basalt
#

Who's Olean again

nimble coral
#

the wife of mr chairman

#

the villian

rugged comet
#

Secretary

supple basalt
#

Oh yeah

nimble coral
#

oh

supple basalt
#

I always forget about her and Rose

#

XD

nimble coral
#

rose i never forget his pants

supple basalt
#

They're just that forgettable

#

I would say yes but I'll be here for an hour so I'll take the L

nimble coral
#

how do you enable that?

supple basalt
#

Wonder what it is...

#

Fennekin getting an upgrade...

nimble coral
#

who do i keep azumarill with thick fat or empoleon?

supple basalt
#

Empoleon

#

Water/Steel is a fantastic type

nimble coral
#

ok

I lost half my team trying to get it but I got Flamigo lol

I blame catching Flamigo as the reason I died just now lol

I dunno canon legendary/mythical kinda devolved into "whatever we say so" territory around the time of meltan/melmetal lol

#

that being said legendary/sub legend is mostly just for the eggs I believe

I actually got Enamorus from my first black+yellow egg

Don't use it cause I don't like Enamorus but I have it ig

#

btw my first shiny was a poochyena in emerald

#

technically ralts but that was for rival

supple basalt
#

My first shiny was a Marrill in like Pearl or something. I don't remember because I killed it on accident lol

unkempt egret
#

mine was a gyarados... as a magikarp in emerald

#

I recall I was trying to look for a feebas and one of the magikarp was just gold

#

young me caught it but didn't evolve it until the mid 40's because young me thought it'd lose its yellowness

#

I think even back then I decided to just save and reset if it lost and sure enough red gyarados! I sadly don't have that emerald cart anymore though, lost it before I got pearl 2 years later

I'm happy

I caught Ursaluna. Who should I boot from the team?

#

(Sacrificed Ludicolo to get said Ursaluna lol)

flint lagoon
#

depends on type overlap or not

terse pollen
#

Sylveon

supple basalt
#

Ursaluna is Ground/Normal

#

So type would overlap with Furfrou

terse pollen
#

Furfrou is not good I'm ngl

supple basalt
#

It's decent. But mostly early game which is when I caught him lol.

flint lagoon
#

I have never used Furfrou but I figureed that like with any pokemon that doesn't evolve it was probably great in the early game

supple basalt
#

It was. I encountered it at... like level 18? And at that level it having Headbutt helped me a lot

#

XD

flint lagoon
#

pft

Headbutt is nice

supple basalt
#

Omg he's so much lower level XD

and yet he did still take out a member of the team

Tbf I only have pokeballs and really wanted him so Ludicolo took one so I could weaken and obtain the bear XD

have you caught the chain trio yet?

whatever their trio group is called I forget

The evil poison guys from mask teal thing

supple basalt
#

No. I was on rount 117 but due to the lady who can change your pokemon/battle against legendaries with your pokemon's movesets I opted to simply bail which put me severely underlevelled

So I've had to start over

Currently on 106

modern oar
flint lagoon
#

yeah been a bit since I've played so I forgot. but I think it was Loyal Three

#

look I 100% the game on a second save and then after catching like one pokemon I really wanted as a shiny I got focused on other games instead hahaha

modern oar
flint lagoon
#

nice

modern oar
#

I played through the entirety of Pokemon Scarlet twice, and I never actually got a shiny I wanted or completed the game.

flint lagoon
#

the Pokemon I actively shiny hunted for was Slitherwing btw

#

hunting the paradox mons is

#

annoying

#

cause you have to leave the area completely in order to set up a picnic

modern oar
#

I want a shiny Eevee, but I have not gotten one in an actual Pokemon game.

modern oar
flint lagoon
#

have to save before making the sandwich, make it, go into area zero, look around the area the mon spawns in, then if the sandwhich runs out you quit and start again. have to make sure auto save is turned off of course

#

cause the shiny up sandwiches use up herba mystica and I am not farming a lot of 5 star raids for more of what I currently had

#

other then that, I had a random relaxed egg hunt going on in Pokemon Shield I think. For Galarian Corsola

#

got a shiny in under 80 eggs I think

#

after taking a break from the game for like months

modern oar
#

I don't want to try hunting for a shiny Eevee with sandwiches specifically because of the fact it uses Herba Mystica.

flint lagoon
#

best bet would be the outbreaks

#

as you defeat the mons in the outbreak the odds of a shiny coming up increase

opaque palm
#

how tf did i manage this

#

how did i get a tie

flint lagoon
#

think once you beat 60 of the mons in the outbreak you can then set up a picnic or enter and exit a loading area to respawn the mons in the outbreak

modern oar
#

I think the closest I got to an Eevee outbreak was getting an Espeon outbreak.

modern oar
unkempt egret
#

I dunno how it'd involve a darkrai but going by the current event I'm willing to say the event raichu knocking itself out with recoil on the same turn it KO's you would result in a tie

modern oar
#

You replied to the wrong person by the way.

unkempt egret
#

oops, rip

brisk hedge
# opaque palm how did i get a tie

I’d say because you were using Rampardos (which does 50 damage to itself each time it kills something) but the fact that you’re using Darkrai indicates that you’re not

opaque palm
unkempt egret
#

aaah yea that might do it

flint lagoon
#

playing some Pokemon This Gym of Mine and tried to use roar to get out of a battle with a wild mon I couldn't run from

#

it failed

flint lagoon
#

okay def gunna make sure to save before starting gym fights for the day cause I had an Aron trainer come in use dragon rage and got an error which meant I had to reset to my last save

#

thankfully, the trainers are randomized

#

but this does not bode well for me if enemy trainer mons or wild mons can use attacks that cause that stupid error to pop up

modern oar
#

What Pokemon fangame should I try that I haven't tried already? The only one other than Pokemon Infinite Fusion that I've played is rejuvenation.

flint lagoon
#

I'm currently trying This Gym of Mine, it's odd

#

my game's a bit buggy

#

sometimes me or an opponent will use a move and an error pops up

#

but interesting thing is the wild pokemon scale in level

static spear
#

This caught me by surprise

flint lagoon
#

grats

modern oar
flint lagoon
#

yeah other's have not seen the same issues I have

#

so it might just be my computer

#

the main points of the game are, you are a gym leader, you get to pick a starter based on type rather then generation

#

kinda difficult game to make money in to start with

modern oar
#

I play on a Linux computer, so I know about having a lot of issues when playing certain games.

flint lagoon
#

mhmm, you can try it out and if it works, then yay. if not you can find another game to try

modern oar
#

I want to try a different fangame as Rejuvenation was not that great, I can't even bring myself to play any farther than the first gym in it.

flint lagoon
#

I would have suggested Pokemon Sardonyx: Raised to Win, but it's not completed even though it had a good amount of content last time I played. I don't know if it's still playable

#

last I remember they have 2 gyms done but not the rest

modern oar
flint lagoon
#

older game I think. I remember watching Pikasprey Yellow play it on YouTube

#

has regional variants and plans for mega evolutions

#

they even planned for mega Eeveelutions

#

which made them all dual typed

#

game also has dark stuff. like built in death for mons

modern oar
#

I've watched videos on This Gym of Mine, and it was an interesting concept. I just don't feel like it would be fun to play, at least for me.

modern oar
flint lagoon
#

it basically tells you before you go to talk to someone 'hey they don't look friendly, you might not want to talk to them' and if you ignore the warnings you get pulled into a battle where your mon can and probably will die at the end cause the other was too strong

#

then you go to a Pokemon center and the Nurse tells you they can't do anything for that Pokemon

#

game makes you pick the Pokemon you sent out to fight in that battle

modern oar
#

Permadeath is why I don't like Nuzlockes, so I don't like that.

flint lagoon
#

yeah I mean, the game does give you warnings. and those battles can be avoided

#

I think your playstyle would also effect things as you play too

#

or your choices

#

sorta like the karma in PIF

#

besides that the main things I remember about the game is there is a thing that prevents you from overleveling your mons

#

and they have other variants of Pokemon besides Shinies

#

Metallic variant I think

modern oar
#

The name and the fact your Pokemon can permanently die makes me not want to play that much. Raised to Win sounds like it would have a story I wouldn't want to see.

flint lagoon
#

fair enough

#

I tried it out years ago

unkempt egret
#

yea I'm used to permadeath permabox but it's very much a "me" thing lol

flint lagoon
#

but stopped cause I hated the fact my pokemon stopped listening to me cause of the level caps

unkempt egret
#

oooh yea I can see that getting rough, especially with forced faints

modern oar
#

If there are not hard level caps then having that happen is not good.

#

Hard level caps meaning your Pokemon stop leveling up at a certain point.

simple quartz
#

I've mentioned it before but part of the reason I never got into the fangames is that it seems like they all tend to perpetuate the design fantasy of "What if Pokemon but HARD AND FOR US GAMERS" and like way too many times it just means "hey you wanna play a fun team? Well fuck you, grind your shit and fight it out with these sets of mons to counter exactly this opponent!"

flint lagoon
#

mhmm, but also for the death matches to be fair to the game the characters that would pull you into a death battle actually warn you beforehand. if you ignore it and decide to fight this trainer with one of your level 10 mons he just sends out a regional Luxray at level 70 to beat yo butt

unkempt egret
#

right like how with IF and super mariomon both handle it

#

(and notably, it's optional in both cases)

#

also we've said it before but pokemon does not lend itself well when it comes to designing to be difficult

flint lagoon
#

also Sardonyx is based off an rp between the main devs of the game they had back in 2011

#

so of course it's weird

#

your starters are Solosis, Eevee, and Meinfoo

unkempt egret
#

at least not for maingame stuff, postgame challenges like the battle frontier are meant to be min-maxed for (Factory aside) so that's kind of a pass since you're not required to engage with it

flint lagoon
#

they said the difficulty is curved like Pokemon Platinum

unkempt egret
#

makes sense

flint lagoon
#

ye, I honestly just like the concept art they had for some of their megas

unkempt egret
#

I dunno why I usually order maingame comparasons like plat -> B2/W2 challenge mode (items) -> S/M (EVs) -> BDSP endgame (items + EVs)

modern oar
#

If you actually have trainers that are almost unbeatable at that point in the game, why would you even add them in the first place? It isn't fun to have that kind of trainer in my opinion.

unkempt egret
#

that being said I've only seen one hack that outright took away EV gains from the player but at least it was one that didn't give any to the opponents either and wasn't specifically aiming to be super difficult

modern oar
#

Unless it is specifically a story progression fight.

unkempt egret
#

I'd actually argue the reverse in that having those trainers is fine but only if they're both optional and give a warning as to what they're about

unkempt egret
#

kinda like the route masters in gen 7 now that I think about it

simple quartz
#

You just need to specifically grind an entirely new team for exactly that almost unbeatable opponent and you're good to go! ohyes 👍

modern oar
#

I said at the point in the game you find them, if they're unbeatable at that point I don't like it.

unkempt egret
#

reminds me of altered evolutions where the readme was basically "if you don't have roselia by gym 1 then go get one rofl" which is uuuuh

flint lagoon
terse pollen
unkempt egret
#

yea if it's optional like that then I feel like that's alright

flint lagoon
#

what happens in the game was based on your choices. if you decided to not walk away from the guy then you lost a pokemon

unkempt egret
#

but if it's mandatory to fight them at that point then you lose a lot of generosity

flint lagoon
#

yeah it wasn't mandatory

#

it was a lesson in choices basically

unkempt egret
#

also reminds me back of when so many hacks gave brock/roxanne/gym 1 equivalent shuckles because it was a rock type you could get at that level

modern oar
#

I still don't like it because I like to be able to actually beat trainers when I encounter them, even if they're a bit stronger than other trainers.

flint lagoon
#

the game does have a nuzlocke mode, but the devs suggest not doing that mode unless you really really wanted to

unkempt egret
#

pretty sure they've stopped doing that (most of them swapped over to lileep) at least but Vega was probably the most infamous with it by giving its shuckle spore + curse... and having a turbo specific counter to it in growl hoothoot... obtained from a trade by trading away a 5% encounter togepi

#

(Minus added in accuracy debuffing Flash as an alternate option and Viva outright got rid of the shuckle in favor of something else)

flint lagoon
#

but the only thing I liked about the concept of Sardonyx was mostly their plans for the eeveelutions. they didn't add more eeveelutions, but instead planned to give each existing one a mega form that was dual typed

modern oar
#

Either way, I most likely won't play it, even if the mega Eeveelution ideas are good.

flint lagoon
#

granted the concept art made it hard to tell what the types were, the art was still lovely~

#

think I saved the pics

#

if I remember correctly, in order, it's Water/flying, electric/steel, fire/rock, dark/poison, psychic/ghost, grass/fighting, ice/ground, and fairy/bug

#

the umbreon one had sprite models last I checked

modern oar
#

They look cool.

flint lagoon
#

art style gives many of them a sheen to them that throws off the typing a bit

#

but I like the idea of the Eeveelutions getting a dual type of the types that didn't get their own eeveelution

#

for mega forms

modern oar
#

Flareon really doesn't need a sheen to it.

flint lagoon
#

yeaa

#

I think it's just the art style for the concept art. cause the umbreon and espeon megas don't have that sheen

#

same for the Sylveon

modern oar
#

I can tell which ones have a sheen and which ones don't.

flint lagoon
#

mhmm, I like the idea of floofy Vaporeon

#

the cloudy floof

modern oar
#

From the art I could tell almost all of their secondary types.

flint lagoon
#

for Leafeon I had a hard time telling cause I guess I just didn't automatically see the wrappings around the front legs and think it had anything to do with fighting

modern oar
#

I mostly couldn't tell for Umbreon.

flint lagoon
#

true but purple does seem to fit with poison. it's spritework for the mega form is nice

modern oar
#

Nothing about its design looked like poison in my opinion.

flint lagoon
#

Apparently besides shiny there are two other color variants. Metallic and Radiant

#

Metallic and Radiant umbreon

modern oar
#

I like the Radiant Umbreon design more than normal Umbreon's design.

flint lagoon
#

it's vibrant. back when I first played there was no Radiant variant. just shiny and metallic along with an even lower chance of a mon being both shiny and meallic

#

guess they got rid of that combo and put in radiant instead

#

oh wow radiant Espeon

modern oar
#

I like blue.

flint lagoon
#

this is bold

modern oar
flint lagoon
#

from what I can see Metallic just basically turns most of the mon into greyscale besides some portions

#

Radiant Glaceon is at least very different compared to shiny Glaceon

#

but still odd

modern oar
#

I hate that one.

flint lagoon
#

I got godzilla vibes for colors

#

radiant leafeon

#

radiant Flareon is kinda... meh

#

okay woa. they really changed Jolteon's base Shiny form

#

Shiny Jolteon and then Radiant Jolteon

#

they have a lot of mons, regional variants, and even megas and megas for regional variants

#

neat

unless you're heckin poipole (UB but still) with a point count of 8

terse pollen

8 is crazy for Poipole

#

I love it but it should not cost 8

quasi dagger
#

is naganadel really that good

#

540 bst for 8 points feels high

unkempt egret
#

it does, especially since beast boost doesn't super stand out amongst many ways to stat boost

#

it's good yes but not 8 cost good on its own

sweet crypt
#

I think that if you started with Naganadel its performance is strong enough in spite of its 540 BST to warrant a 8 cost

#

However, that's the thing

#

You don't start with Naganadel

#

You start with Poipole

#

So you need to get Dragon Pulse first

#

I mean, Kartana's an 8 cost, ain't it?

#

And I'd rather have a Naganadel than a Kartana, easily

quasi dagger
#

i mean techincally you can start with it unless the movesets have been changed

or the evo method

Well, moved it to a later level

I could be wrong though

If I am then yeah no the 8 cost is deserved

ninetales cleared but if I was adding silly self-achievements to this game I'd add "use stellar tera blast" as one since I almost just did it as Drampa but I got crit

#

yea since you asked for eevees

supple basalt
#

How the hell did a Luvdisc outspeed a +1 speed Meowscarada

unkempt egret
#

it depends on a lot but the main thing is that if you unlocked eevee's passive it's not gonna stay whatever it is

unkempt egret
#

also if you're using No Retreat then don't use glaceon's special move, just use ice beam there

modern oar
#

Okay, I really am just planning on winning my first run, so I don't really have a set goal for what I'm doing.

unkempt egret
#

ah in that case uuuh... "not flareon"?

espeon and sylveon are probably the most useful for the bosses but leafeon can give you a leech seed source which can be helpful in a pinch

Should I take the wave 13 Dynamax Band? I lost the previous run very early so I started a new one just now.

In comparison I would over the other two items

This is the second early Dynamax Band that I have gotten.

supple basalt

I've gotten it once but my favorite early game item was the candy jar I got from the second battle five runs ago XD

modern oar

I believe my first run on this save had Dynamax Band before wave 10, but if not, it was definitely before wave 20.

#

I found the Candy Jar.

I think I would want to have a different Eeveelution than Jolteon, but the other items are so bad I would want to reroll the options.

But in any other context?

#

Lmfao no

#

Bonus points if you can "win" the unwinnable fight

Because it's funny

I FUCKING HATE SPRINGTIDE STORM INACCURACY

sweet crypt
#

(I know you've already taken these stuff but idk I still feel like commenting on these could help for future runs)

#

Even if you don't have Gmax-Capable mons, the Band can still be useful for making the item pool for Rogue items smaller, thus allowing you to get more coveted items like Leftovers

I know some people consider Phione better than Manaphy in pokerogue because it's cheaper and has water absorb when normally Phione sucks ass and Manaphy is always better

#

But how is Azelf good? At least in pokerogue

sweet crypt
#

So it can suicide lead and do shit like lay Hazards and Taunt while still threatening stuff

#

In Pokerogue, the high SpA and Speed still helps

#

And additionally Pokerogue gives it Tail Glow

#

As well as like

#

Aura Sphere, Ice Beam and Psystrike

#

Also it does technically have the same Attack as SpA iirc

#

And that does matter in base Pokemon with moves like Knock Off and Gen 4 Self-Destruct

#

I see

#

I guess it's not as bad as I thought

#

I certainly didn't expect it to have a good movepool

#

also yea I recall that helping it out a lot as a suicide lead in gen 4

#

since unlike a lot of them it could very much take something out if it wasn't a ghost type

#

I should rank the Legendaries based on how well they typically do competitively

sweet crypt
#

And Phione's conversely a Pokemon you'll likely get full unlocks for without even trying

unkempt egret
#

yea since phione is a 7/8 hatch from the eggs compared to manaphy's 1/8

sweet crypt
#

And it certainly works well enough

#

I feel like if I was doing that tier list I'd have a seperate tier for "defensive without Recover: dead on arrival" legendaries

#

since I recall that being a decently collected list

sweet crypt
#

... Except Regigigas

#

But that's Regigigas we're talking about

unkempt egret
#

I can see that since I recall them having decent niches in gen 3?

sweet crypt
#

But yeah no every Regi except for Eleki would really like Recover

#

Eleki is hard to judge

#

Because there's always shit getting in the way of correctly accessing its strength

#

Whether it's usage keeping it in Gen 8 UU despite being kinda bad there

unkempt egret
#

also I dunno why I keep thinking moltres is worse than it actually is since it was only below UU for two gens (1, where all fire types are bad by default, and 5 when flying types in general had high competition)

sweet crypt
#

Or Tera making it broken

#

I would say "even zapdos dropped in gen 5" but I believe that was thundurus's fault specifically?

#

actually I'm not sure since base thundy got banned and theiran does things a bit differently? I do know that's the only gen of all 9 where zapdos wasn't in OU
