oh that's nice ^v^
I've just got a magikarp, so maybe it's not worth adding it?
the only thing it could provide me that I haven't is super effective damage against ground type but I don't have any electric pokemon, and have a immunity
unkempt egret
it's always good to have in the wings for future fights at least, gyarados is always good as a backup

alright, noted!

If other evil teams had the naming conventions of Team Macro Cosmos, Team Galactic would probably be named Team Gods of Time and Space
Tbf I guess they're kinda like that considering Kyogre and Groudon are associated with water and magma
But like
So many other Pokemon are
Macro Cosmos is a very specific descriptor that only applies to Eternatus
Is there any other big alien Pokemon that has the power to turn other Pokemon big?
That's what I thought
unkempt egret
the closest one I could otherwise think of would be... palkia
but that requires two very generous readings of the word "space" lol

I am in hell
The game corner is so mind numbing, i walk 5 steps, spam inputs on the machine for five spins, if not an instant hot streak reset

i been grinding money for few hours now
idk how im suppose to get multiple mega stones im not even close
graceful hornet
@broken temple cest quel jeu
broken temple
im sorry?
i speak english
coarse viper
i barely able to get that because born in latin country xDE
broken temple
good enough
also
game been running for like 13 hours and im only at 28mill
a single stone is 100
im not getting these megas anytime soon
coarse viper
yeah imma give Stakataka that amulet coin, or to Clawtizer
coarse viper
high damage on multiple targets the only downside is the long recharge time
broken temple
hmm i guess 200 dmg at level 1 is alot
i might inveset in it
level 100 5500 damage
seems strong
broken temple
that circle is pretty good
just need to find a good position
huh well now that i look at it
it has higher range then other circle mons
making it harder to palce
place*
coarse viper
yep
broken temple
like decidueye has the perfect size for most maps
ill try him with priority to attack high hp for now
ill see how it goes
coarse viper
also endless mode in Pokerogue is pretty rough at the beginning
broken temple
yep
its near impossible to get far without pickup and honey gather
imma try this setup for money grinding for a bit
i invested quite a bit of money to level stuff up so im a bit behind i hope it will be good
stakataka and inteleon kinda leach off eachother since both do the same thing kinda
but i hope the rest of the mons can clean up
and ill put it on auto restart instead of retry incase i accidently reach the boss passivly
since no way i can beat it without lookin
coarse viper
i was gonna ask if it stops before the boss does it reset to 75?
broken temple
if you lose to a boss you just retry the wave so you will endlessly fight the boss even passivly
auto restart just puts you back to wave 1 of the stage incase of that
i feel like for passive farming its better
coarse viper
fair enough
coarse viper
ngl i kinda hate the Endless mode xD
okay seriously no matter which one i get as my sweeper the next biome is just the direct counter
broken temple
for endless you want something that gets a setup move rather early
and use barries from pickup and money from honey gather to heal and restore pp
coarse viper
man i picked a rock starter i got send to the lake 
i was with Meloetta i got send to Dark type land
coarse viper
i have almost a full team of them
would be nice to get a map
fudge it i will just Regigigas
coarse viper
Alright Regi was the answer
broken temple
oh gee its like the giant titan with 160 attack was unexpctedly good
coarse viper
its not just that as much as Regi has the answer to its counters
he can hit ghosts and kills most fighting types before they get a turn
broken temple
well expected
broken temple
i made like 7 mill since i started doing this
i think it works
like 50 minutes or smtn like that
i think this is the way
coarse viper
i am sitting at 13 mil i made it so i reach around wave 95 then it fails and retries from 75
broken temple
the map im using is very tricky since 90% of the spots are mountain and i dont have many of those leveled up
but it works
coarse viper
i am using 1-1
broken temple
it probably cant make it to level 100
im using this map because of the higher money yields per mon
the most common mon post wave 50 gives like 715 per kill
and the rarer ones double that
i can go back to auto retry since they wont reach the boss
coarse viper
i am using a CLawitzer with amulet coin which made the map more comfortable in placement
broken temple
i would use clawiezer if i didnt have inteleon perma on my team
i dont like the cross formation at all
its really hard to use on most maps
coarse viper
Clawiezer can also get that item that turns the cross in the 8 ways
broken temple
ye but mine is always on inteleon
coarse viper
i really don't like Inteleon on some maps really xD he needs max range to be super good
and some maps ain't really having many corners
broken temple
even where i placed him on this map
he does like 2000 damage on entrance
and his damage will only increase the longer they are on the track
set him to attack high hp targets hes good at chipping them down
hes rivaling decidueye damage wise with this placement and decidueye attacks like 6-7 times faster
im going to try clawiezter on this specific map with the star item
i feel like he can be good
broken temple
watch out for sludge bomb
broken temple
isnt that just a weaker EQ
coarse viper
well found the ground type terra lol
that means only the dragon move is gonna do somethin
oh? Eternatus is not at 200 in Endless?
broken temple
in endless its every 250 i think
coarse viper
ah
broken temple
i could be dead wrong tho
its been a goodwhile since i played pokerouge and espically endless
broken temple
ok after testing clawietzer for awhile
on the shorter maps he preforms about 20% better then inteleon the only downside is the range difference
on the longer maps inteleon is far more consistant
and just to put it into prespective stakataka without any outside buffs still deals oveall 15% more damage then him
coarse viper
idk i still like Clawitzer more
broken temple
theres a use case for both
inteleon has more damage potential but less consistant on shorter maps
clawietzer lacks range but can deal alot of damage
unkempt blaze
i made like 7 mill since i started doing this
i think it works
no ditto?
coarse viper
oo that's hard should i put Multi Lens on Regigigas?
unkempt blaze
oh aight
coarse viper
hmm..nah not yet
unkempt blaze
grumpig is unique
broken temple
eh just needed a frisk mon
hes not that good
the other frisk mons cant be placed in grass
coarse viper
oh only first phase of Eternatus is there
no space hand
the fact that i can't just catch at least a version of him is annoying
broken temple
you can only catch etarn once hes the last pokemon you need in the dex
broken temple
im pretty sure hes also the only mon in the game with cost of 10
broken temple
what about err..the prehistoric and future type mons?
i think they are strictly from eggs
but i could be wrong
i got my first walking wake from an egg and he carried me for awhile
broken temple
they are broken enough as it is
walking wake used to have cracked egg moves back then
im pretty sure he got nerfed a bit
coarse viper
alright i am high enough to switch to Garchomp
sweet crypt
what about err..the prehistoric and future type mons?
You unlock them from eggs, but after hatching them you can catch them
HOWEVER
You cannot catch Eternatus or the Paradoxes in Endless

so far nothing seem to Outspeed me
so unless another FlutterMane comes i am good xD
broken temple
the game scales with you
just wait till they get more speed boosts
that -10 speed will be noticeable eventually

i am more in a pickle at the fact of just not having enough candy jars to keep up with Eternatus

you still need atleast 1 mon for ghost types

yeah i had Coballion for that
it just so happens that the one ghost the rival has its the one with the fire type
and my boy is missing his claws
broken temple
sounds like an issue in the planning stage
coarse viper
fair but i picked Coballion because he usually has flying types countering my fighting types
sooo i picked Coballion cuz steel
but now he has a litwick
broken temple
if i had to do a fighting run today ill have more then 1 answer lamo
broken temple
the grind in pokepath gets ridiculous i think ill stop for now
it became a massive time sink for so little in return
im not a fan with the insane prices being used for the new stuff
coarse viper
i have it opened in the background
broken temple
ye but i dont feel like having the game open for another 18 hours to get one item
coarse viper
i am letting it there and i get everyone to 100 and shiny
oh yeah i agree the prices are silly
broken temple
i think its leaning to far on grinding and a time sink instead of providing a gap in the market for a pokemon tower defense game
coarse viper
it tries too hard to extend time play and in the end it just turns in to a background game
broken temple
the concept is cute for the first 10 hours
and after that its just a grind
idk if ill open it again
coarse viper
well i am a completionist so there is not much i leave without 100% the content
so i don't mind it as much
i will complain if it sucks tho xD
still do it but i will not be as happy about it
broken temple
after getting like 2 mega stones the shop updated to show me goldengo that costs like 100 times the cost of the mega stones
coarse viper
soo it costs as much as the shiny charm
broken temple
it took me 18 hours
to get 2 stones
imagine how much it is to get that fuck
coarse viper
yeah like i said it tried to maximize replayability and instead they turned the game in to a background checker
broken temple
like the original pokemon tower defense game was grindy sure
but it focused more on strategy then the grinding

this is looking good so far

Here's the finished Bingo card. Probably the most confident in the second column...
B1: Pretty safe bet considering they always do a segment on their shitty mobile games
I1: Pretty likely
N1: God I hope so
G1: Since we already have all of the Gen 6 mythicals in ZA, I don't see why they'd do this. MAYBE they could give us one in SV, but I doubt it
O1: Pretty safe bet considering they always do a segment on their shitty mobile games. Whoa, deja vu
B2: Even if we weren't at the end of a generation this would be unlikely, but since we are it's pretty much guaranteed that this isn't happening
I2: yada yada shitty mobile games you know the drill by now
N2: I could see them doing this, but it's far from guaranteed
G2: since pokopia is on the way, it's highly unlikely, especially since we're at the end of Gen 9
O2: I could see them doing an event for one of the shiny locked legends
B3: I highly doubt it
I3: the next main series games are going to be Gen 10, so this isn't happening
G3: Do I even need to say it
O3: This is pretty likely
B4: No chance in hell, especially since we're at the end of Gen 9. Edit: actually on second thought they might add one to NSO, but the only one that I can think of that isn’t already on there is Pokémon Pinball
I4: I'd be shocked if we didn't get this
N4: I have no gauge on how likely this is
G4: Probably
O4: Unless it's a distribution of the shiny locked legends, I don't see what they would do with this
B5: This is a pretty safe bet
I5: I'd say this is more likely then not. They'll probably do this before the Gen 10 reveal
N5: Not completely impossible, but I doubt it
G5: It'd probably just be a rerun, but there's a solid chance
O5: Same thing as with Let's Go Johto, though I'd say this is likely to be the next region we revisit

since this is the 30th though I very much expect it to be KANTO KANTO KANTO mobile updates KANTO KANTO KANTO WE SURE WISH IT WAS 1996/1998 AGAIN KANTO for the entire runtime
brisk hedge
God I hope not
We already had an outrageously unacceptable amount of Kanto pandering in Gen 7 and 8, and we haven’t yet had a game where Kanto got nothing to make up for it
If we absolutely HAVE to give even more love to Kanto (which, I remind you, we don’t) at least give it a reasonable amount compared to everything else.
And for the love of Arceus, DO NOT give anything to Gen 1 mons that already got something
It’s the 30th anniversary of the franchise, so you should be celebrating the entire franchise, not just the worst part of it

Pikachu might be the exception since it’s the series mascot

"Worst part of it" now that's too subjective
Tbf though, Gen 1 definitely is the objective worst from multiple angles
unkempt egret
except for the most important angle for most people: "being first"

There is no doubt, for example, that it is the most glitch-riddled generation of Pokemon
And also the least well-balanced
But with how old the games are, and with this being the first installment in the franchise, this isn't too surprising
smoky gyro

If we're talking about Gen 1 mons then yeah no I'm not even gonna try to argue about objectivity
Because there is no objective for the Pokemon themselves apart from how strong they are in gameplay
And even that is somewhat nuanced
Since there's stuff like whether you're talking about casual playthroughs or competitive play or challenge runs
And which generation you're referring to
Because a Pokemon like Gyarados has a very notable rise in strength from Gen 3 to Gen 4 due to the Physical/Special split
sweet crypt
Or Gengar when it got its Mega Evolution
sweet crypt
Because Mega Gengar is all sorts of fucked up
sweet crypt
I mean gen 1 didnt really get that much tlc imo
Kanto is still pretty easily the region that appears the most in the games
smoky gyro
I cant think of any Kanto appearance
sweet crypt
And the region with the most games directly centered around it
sweet crypt
And that's already more than every other region
Because it's not like the other regions are appearing much at all outside of the games surrounding around them
The only other one that TECHNICALLY does is Unova because Blueberry Academy is TECHNICALLY in Unova, and let's be real this doesn't count
It's like if we specifically went to Sky Pillar and only Sky Pillar in a game and considered it an extra appearance for Hoenn as a whole
I guess technically the same could be said for Lumiose in ZA though, so fair enough if you consider it I guess
But I probably wouldn't
Idk if it's better that this is a previously not established area in Unova or worse

rich tundra
Artic animals only
arctic
sweet crypt
Yeah to also include like piplup
I'd also have to exclude stuff like Frosmoth
Because yeah no fun fact moths do not really exist in cold areas
Shocker I know
Technically Piplup shouldn't be allowed since penguins are a southern hemisphere thing
And the Arctic is literally the north pole
But I get that you mean both Antarctica and the Arctic
Would it be really funny if I just included Camerupt?
Because you cannot convince me that that Mega is NOT based on some sort of yak or some other cold enjoying bovine
I want to see if I could do this run without bringing an Ice type actually
I mean
You already mentioned Empoleon
There's also Ting-Lu, who's based on a moose
The Ursaring line also fits since they are brown bears
Multiple Lynx species live in the Arctic Circle
So I could include Luxray
But like
That's Luxray
There's also quite a few Pokemon that, while not based on any arctic/antarctic creature, does live in cold areas
Hisuian Zoroark for example
coarse viper
seals
sweet crypt
Garchomp, too
Which has always been funny to me
Bro lives in cold areas with a quad ice weakness 💀
A few Fighting types also sometimes appear in cold areas. I couldnt tell you why, but they do!

resistance training i guess
cinder iron
I wonder if Hisuian Zoroark's inclusion was to mirror Cironnup Kamuy, an Ainu fox god

Which is really not a Pokemon I'd ever expect to be a cold-loving Pokemon
rich tundra
Reuniclus also appears in Blueberry's Polar Biome
I've been summoned

Speaking of the Polar Biome
It also grants me access to the Porygon line, Smeargle, the Beldum line, the Snubbul line, the Chimchar line, the Minccino line, the Golett line, Minior, the Scorbunny line, the Duraludon li- ok, why the HELL are most of these Pokemon in the polar biome?
Oh hey I was joking about Camerupt looking somewhat like a bovine you'd find in a cold environment despite supposedly being a camel
But uhh
Yeah it does actually live in the Polar biome
cinder iron
Chimchar's probably because of the monkeys that live in the cold part of Japan
sweet crypt
No but seriously why does Mega Camerupt look like a yak instead of a camel
Camels aren't even bovids btw just making sure y'all know that

thinkin of doin ice ultra sun as my next run for monomasters. what starter should i pick
unkempt egret
how about Popplio? mostly since that gives you the easier rival fights I think
(well, easier for mono-ice)
coarse estuary
popplio isnt an ice type
brisk hedge
how about Popplio? mostly since that gives you the easier rival fights I think
If he picks Popplio, his rival will have Litten, which is super effective against ice
coarse estuary
i wouldnt pick it anyways as it is not and doesnt become ice type

I’d say to go with the earliest ice type you can get (which I believe is either Delibird or Smoochum)
coarse estuary
im thinking i might go with burgmite. its in the allowed bst range and can evolve plus i feel its physical bulk will help me early game

he does thus if i picked poplio hau would have litten

riiight I'm thinking SM (and Swish actually) where the Final Boss gets what you're weak against
while in USUM the one you're weak against kinda just disappears
coarse estuary
well it appears for teacher emily
cloud lark
I don't get why Gamefreak doesn't just do with the starters what they did with Shauna and Calem/Serena if they're so concerned about the 5 year olds being upset about losing type matchups. Have one rival take the strong one and the other take the weak one and you fight the weak one immediately with the strong one coming later.
coarse estuary
tbh they need to do a gen 5 again where you have 2 rivals and you fight each an equal amount and have one take the starter weak to you and the other take the one strong to you. im tired of the rivals taking the starter weak to you
unkempt egret
the consequences of giving you early STAB instead of the first fight being a tacklefest
which itself is solvable, give the stab at level 6 rather than 5 or 8
which also gives a hint to the idea of "try out this new move that's much better than what you just slogged through"
coarse estuary
yeah i like it when you dont get stab right out the gate but you get it right after the tutorial rival fight
brisk hedge
Honestly, I prefer having stab for the tutorial rival fight, since sitting there spamming tackle several times is kind of boring. But I think there should be a second rival that takes the starter strong against yours that you fight after getting a chance to catch a few mons
Its also nice to see the evolution lines of both starters
coarse estuary
also when a game only has 1 rival it forces you to have to buy another copy of the game if you just so happen to not have a way to see what the non picked starter is
coarse estuary
at least on the switch you can have a save per profile
coarse viper

This game is so funny
Ooh, Relict. Love that game
coarse viper
oooo got the doggo
sweet crypt
Ngl, it's kinda sad how even in Pokerogue, Solgaleo is overshadowed
Like, compare it to Lunala, and you can clearly see that Lunala is just the superior option
coarse viper
eventually i will get there i think xD
sweet crypt
But you can only bring 1 Cosmog
And Cosmog is so expensive that it'll be lilely that whatever it evolves into will be the strongest Pokemon on the team
So why evolve it into the inferior option?
Like sure you could argue that there's probably some matchups Lunala cannot handle that Solgaleo can
Except your argument would be invalid
coarse viper
imma try both eventually and see which one i had an easier time with
sweet crypt
Because both of Lunala's weaknesses are also weaknesses Solgaleo has
And the former is better at handling them despite alsp having a quad weakness to them
Because Lunala has Moonblast by level up for Dark types and STAB Moongeist Beam for Ghosts
And Shadow Shield halves damage taken when at full HP, so it isn't even going to die in any less number of hits than Solgaleo, it's gonna be a 2HKO on bith
Lunala is also a better abuser of Calm Mind, should you get the TM for it
And Ghost is quite the superior offensive option compared to Steel
Steel is defensively better, but I personally still never found a situation where Lunala struggles against any Pokemon that wasn't a Dark type
And even then it'd be specifically like, Bisharp or Kingambit
coarse viper
Eternatus also gaining Flamethrower makes the steel argument not as a great of a stance xD
sweet crypt
Shadow Shield and reliable recovery makes Lunala nigh-impossible for any Pokemon that doesn't have a Dark or Ghost move to put a dent in
And even Pokemon with those moves can struggle if they are non STAB, and if they are most of them are getting hit by Lunala harder than they are hitting it
Even if Solgaleo wasn't bad, it's just
Why pick it over Lunala?
Genuinely if you get a Lunala and know basics about Pokemon, you win the game
The only difficulty in a Lunala run is getting a Lunala
You just turn your brain off for 99% of the rest
If you see Kingambit just use the Tera that you do not need for anything else
That's basically all there is to it
On the bright side, it isn't directly competing with NDM anymore
Because NDM is extremely RNG reliant to get
But of course NDM is still far superior
Base Necrozma is notably not a very ideal Pokemon
However, Cosmog->Solgaleo does face competition from the far cheaper Beldum
Who I generally find to be infinitely easier to evolve into Metagross
And though Solgaleo's probably better than base Metagross, Mega Metagross is certainly superior to Solgaleo
In general I'm not a fan of Cosmog in Pokerogue because RNG is involved to make it not worthless garbage here
And my luck is horrible, and will always be horrible

Recently did a Mega Kanga run, myself
Base Kanga was a bit too weak for my liking to consider it a good carry
coarse viper
i just used Meloetta for my normal run
broken temple
meneged to snag the mega stone at like 104
sweet crypt
But as a standalone, Mega Kanga is probably S-
broken temple
so big chilling
sweet crypt
Maybe S tier?
Certainly not S+, I save S+ for Pokemon that could solo the game without egg moves or passives or RNG
Or evasion/confide shenanigans
Because most Pokemon could solo with that
Only Eternatus and Xerneas are there so far
sweet crypt
Only Eternatus and Xerneas are there so far
To elaborate, both Base Eternatus with Tera and Eternamax are easily able to tank the opposing Eternatus' moves and set up in front of it, while staying healthy with Recover. The opposing Etern is just incapable of stopping this. Nasty Plot is the preferred option with Egg Moves, but Cosmic Power works perfectly fine
Xerneas just pops Tera, Geomancies up and wins
It doesn't really have reliable healing, but you should have enough Sitruses by now for it to not matter
Alternatively you can try to overlevel with Xerneas and abuse the fact that Eternatus' only method of punishing overleveling is a Dragon move
That way you could even tank Poison moves and also abuse the heck out of Enigma Berries
Honourable mentions go to Volcarona
Volcarona can solo Eternatus and most of the game without egg moves or passives, but considering how it really cannot get past Mega Rayquaza even with egg moves and passives, doing so without them is also impossible
And also to Lunala, since the only thing stopping it from stomping the game is Cosmog
Lugia could also solo the full game with Multiscale
But that's a HA
And for that reason I'd only really put it in S tier at most
Though keep in mind, this is my opinion
Pokemon like Eternatus, Lunala and Lugia where you simply wall out any opponent you can wall out, set up on them while healing up with your reliable recovery move and sweep once you're at +6 aren't favoured by all
Though I find them to be the most consistent types of carries
Also note that this is from a Classic PoV
Because I dislike Endless
And don't play it
coarse viper
only purpose i see for Endless eventually is to shiny hunt or to easily farm a mon to get their passives and eggs moves
coarse viper

my plan innetially was to get tera ghost
and use entrainment with delcatty
but i didnt get tera ghost
coarse viper
I had to use tera flying Flamingo to be able to get rid of his mega rayquaza so I didnt have the tera move
So I couldn't even tera in to the poison type with Cobalion like I wanted
and my pokemons were tad too slow to use switch tactics
but hey i won in the end
and i know the nature is weird on Cobalion
but its the only nature i had for him
broken temple
OOO
coarse viper
Dang Gg
4 shinies not bad
So yeah with eternatus taking in consideration the easiest run must be a ground type run
2 of his moves are borderline useless against ground
And the one move he can use might not even be a one shot
broken temple
i want to forget this thing exists
but the universe keeps reminding me
coarse viper
Is it wrong to say I like Enamorus design more than the other three?

coarse viper
geniunenly IF the game had no such obnoxious puzzles it will be a 10/10
this water puzzle genuinely is the worst so far
and that's somethin
uhh finally
sweet crypt
So yeah with eternatus taking in consideration the easiest run must be a ground ...
Ground can struggle with 195 though
And it doesn't have any easy "One Mon Carry" answer
coarse viper
ground has Garchomp
sweet crypt
Depending on RNG, the rival could send out Rayquaza to answer Garchomp
And Garchomp won't be OHKOing Mega Rayquaza from full at +1 unless you have really good RNG
It usually works
But there's runs that always win
So "usually" winning isn't enough
The likes of Eternatus, Xerneas, Tapus Fini and Lele, Terapagos, Ho-Oh, Lugia, Ttar, Dialga, Giratina, Dnite, Swoobat (yes, Swoobat), Nihilego, Cinccino, Iron Moth and Hoopa are consistent in beating 195 and 200 in my experience
So that's Dragon, Poison, Water, Psychic, Fairy, Normal, Fire, Psychic, Flying, Rock, Steel and Ghost covered
Swoobat's probably the Pokemon that surprised me the most
I mean, it already normally has Simple Calm Mind Stored Power
And it's garbage even with that in the mainline games
So I wasn't expecting it to pull its weight to this extent here
Cinccino on the other hand I fully expected they gave this mf Population Bomb 💀
sweet crypt
Fun fact: Even if there was a Pokemon that had a Ghost quad resist with either Purifying Salt or Fur Coat with 255 HP and Defence and 252 EVs in both stats and a +Defence nature
Last Respects Basculegion can still OHKO it
Not just that, but it could OHKO it 100% of the time
If you were to have a Pokemon on your team faint a grand total of 100 times through the usage of stuff like Revival Blessing cycling with Lunar Dance to heal PP or alternatively just Revives, you can make Last Respect's BP increase all the way to 5050
Which is a giga shitton
This is obviously unrealistic, but it is technically possible
I've probably shared this info before since I've known this for a year or two by now
But I was reminded of this when someone abused this to beat Pokerogue Endless with nothing but brute force
That and, y'know, and 60 million uses of Revival Blessing
So you can technically brute force Endless
Y'know, with a method that's even more tedious and boring than the current damage over time meta
But still

I'm in one of those clans but the leader and his friend are kinda no lifers with the game so they're basically holding the wars hostage if I don't keep my defences low (apparently if U have low defences it makes it easier to do wars :/ ) meanwhile both of them have maxed out everything and I just started

supple basalt
Ngl I've been playing Pokémon since gen 1 and I can solidly say gen 6 and onward were too easy. The most difficult game was PLA with USUM having a few hard fights but other than that, that's it
I'm not saying older games are difficult as a whole. But they lack the QOL changes and type diversity that's there nowadays which doesn't make them more difficult, it's just more tedious with not a large amount of interesting gameplay mechanics to keep people interested

I will say that the type diversity (or lack thereoff) is a factor in difficulty
However, it isn't a good kind of difficulty
