Do the characters get better further on ?
Because I don’t like anyone except doctor calvel rn

dunsparce gets worse further on

And I don’t buy it so far

I kinda figured a lot of pokemon would be squishy

You lost me at clams

viscid adder
You lost me at clams
yeah I figured
explosion really doesn't count as an unit of measurement
devout sigil
I disagree
I think the movement of mimicking the explosion would be a set number
Just a dab of peanut butter or a sprinkle of salt
viscid adder
OH MAN that sandwich is gonna ascend into heaven with those ingredients

oh lord my bigun is sooooo large

Explosion is just the opposite spectrum

viscid adder

god... but sure cans is the store where the rice is located

who needs normal type moves when you got some dark type moves at your disposal!
hazy scarab
i know rollout and drill
viscid adder
(also, if you are ever going to have a dunsparce party and take on the dark type guy, you might need to evolve one and teach it body press)
so yeah... it's biggun's time to shine
hazy scarab
why would i need body press
viscid adder
fair point
i forgot bug and fairy can take care of that
time to teach one of the boys pounce
and luckily, you don't need to evolve it
hazy scarab
pounce seems not good
im very overleveled anyway
they stopped listening to me
WAIT DOES THAT MOVE YOU WERE ADVOCATING FOR THAT IS BASED ON WEIGHT GET EFFECTED BY THEIR SIZE

Increases the moves power by 50 everytime anihillape gets hit
goddamn
it's like revenge and power up punch had a baby
viscid adder
And I think that’s a missed opportunity
I agree!
hm
gotta say
it's interesting to look at these two side by side
I think what I like about paldean tauros is that they took on a realistic approach on making the form different from the original
The horns are less pronounced, the fur is more untamed.. it even looks a little thicker!
plus the animation makes the tauros less angry ready to headbutt your face and more of a tranquil yet angry beast.
One that is charging its energy to kick your ass and is not letting that anger take over
Here, the fire build is slimmer and the idle animation is more akin to the regular tauros.
both of these bulls have anger that is ready to be unleashed.
The tails twisting to become this cat-o-nine-tails, the horns being turned to face directly at their target, plus the raised fur are really good touches.
Water build has wider horns and a tail that's shaped like a propeller.
It also has the same idle animation as regular tauros and fire build.
Since the fire build has horns that heat up like a branding iron, I'm guessing the horns work like blunt objects that can swinged.
One set of horns for poking, the other for smacking
I think what's interesting is the breed's weights
Combat breed is the heaviest of the bunch, while blaze breed is the slimmest (even slimmer than og!tauros)
and pokedex entries?
Oh yeah I figured. The combat breed is pure beef. A well tempered bull that can precisely strike your ass in 500 places.
how bout the other two
HOLY SNAP
water tauros can shoot water from their horns??
Ok that changes everything
And that's just super cool
clear crest
Pew pew
viscid adder
I was expecting some different stats for the bods, but
nope. all of them share the same stat pool
Honestly I love there's three different kinds of bulls for different play styles
and that can be seen with their TM pool
like goddamn that's a lot of fire
honestly I think the builds should have their own unique stats
One for close quarters combat, one for precise attacks and defense, and one for long ranged attacks
because they're giving this bull special moves and his special attack stat is super sad
hell, water bull should have a higher special attack stat
it would make sense since their horns do all the talking
Ok, now this is interesting
The textures for the hoopas are interesting
especially on the hair and their colors
Hoopa has this cartoony kind of look with their shading. Hell their hair is shiny!
they kind of remind me of a toy.
But unbound hoopa's hair and rings get realistic shading
I just think that's a cool little thing they did to make them stand out further
one captures the childish trickster vibes while the other means serious business
prime topaz
I think what's interesting is the breed's weights
all that water weight
viscid adder
yep! all the water weight
OH! and I'm currently checking out the food reactions

I meant strictly for games but yeah
forest egret
Ah right
patent rivet
Neither of those things are really relevant to how much the game is gonna sell
prime topaz
it does because it's more than just the game they have to think about
forest egret
No. They just want them out faster because it means money faster
prime topaz
it's all the multimedia stuff like merch or the anime (not a concern anymore but it used to)
patent rivet
So, what you're saying is that since they clearly make more of their money from stuff besides the games, that gives them even more reason to actually take their time with the games since they'll still be making obnoxious amounts of money

Can you do tera raids without buying the online thing?

You can do them single player

How'd you get the armor?
I still haven't figured it out

The terra Pokémon ai are STUPID

How'd you get the armor?
defeat 10 sinisteas and trade for it in east zapapico

Or bronzor in violet

you can find sinisteas in the wild at alfornada

also, has anyone looked at the huge fuckoff cliff in the northeast

I saw some near the hammer girls in the crab titan canyon

the siniseas in that area are level 40-42 but they're very easy to beat at level 28 with a fully evolved pokemon like kilowattrel

But they’re gonna just stick with doing dumb shit like haze
Or ally switch
Also kinda exploitable if you have an immunity
prime topaz
not sure why this one is 45 but the lucario in the cave was 75
bronze pawn
Is there any way to tell if a sinistea is antique or fake?
Just in battle
Why is there an army of banette here
Oh god I've decided to do something painful
I'm going to shiny hunt sinistea
prime topaz
get the phony one shiny but make people mad by insisting it's antique
prime topaz
it fainted because i took it down to 1hp before the tera broke
and the burn got it
fucking wow

Is there any way to tell if a sinistea is antique or fake?
sorry dude, but the only way you're gonna find out is if you inspect the cup

Clodsire is the most used Pokémon this gen
Strong , can get early game, and decent design

i wish the gyms scaled with your progress because I only have the last titan left and then I'm going to mop the floor with the gym leaders

See aside from it being a rock type, Garganacl is essentially how tanks should be done
Especially with salt cure making it good against two other great types for bulky Mons (which it would otherwise be pretty defenseless against)
prime topaz
meager oasis
Majority of the new mons in this gen seem to have around the same BST
Like 480-520
But then there’s randomly spidops at 404
Lokix is at 450 but it has tinted lens which makes it a lot better
Wait are clodsire, lokix and spidops the only new fully evolved mons with a BST below 470?
There’s rabsca and the mouse family with 470 BST
forest egret
I like that dude but I genuinely forgot his name was Rabsca
meager oasis
Same I had to memorise it
I like the name though
Oh right there’s also squawkabilly at BST 417

I'm surprised that out of the bugs, the Dung Beetle is the one with the highest BST

It doesn’t have any moves that could swap the ability onto something else though

finally got my first shiny of the game!
Awesome I love espathra
white jungle
Espartha's shiny is a straight upgrade to its palette
compact sequoia
I've heard it's one of the proper noticeable ones
compact sequoia
it's almost there rn, can't wait to see it
white jungle
It also gets speed boost, calm mind and stored power
I don't think it's great but that's definitely some major sweeper potential
It's kind of a Sigilyph level thing where it can be super op with its setup moves but it takes some effort
Doesn't get any bug countering moves.
In fact with multiple First Impression users this gen bug is pretty scary
But it gets dazzling gleam
compact sequoia
I don't really think about strategy too much, I just choose the mons i like the designs of
though I try to avoid having dead weight on the team
compact sequoia
dang the shiny espathra pallete is nice
welp, time to blast through the game with my new shiny ace so i can curate a shiny team for my scarlet run, prolly just the shiny versions of my current run with some substitutions.
white jungle
Houndstone being banned from ou is bullshit imo
It's not, like, a super op Pokémon. It's easy to check and prepare for with very little pressure to change your team to combat it
And it's at it's best when most of its team is dead
It's in no way comparable to ||Flutter Mane||
And banning it just feels like a knee-jerk "I don't like this" reaction
For god's sake it's a regional dog
Especially when Cyclizar DIDN'T get banned

He has haunted me for HOURS, this must be a bug, he's in every cutscene and almost every building T-T
white jungle
or palafin
Exactly
Houndstone is a great Pokémon, but by no means an overpowered one
It's a very balanced option, especially with so many priority attackers running around to deal with sand rush choice scarf
Even THEN who the hell runs a comp team that doesn't have one resistance or immunity to ghost?
clear crest
I think the problem card with houndstone is tera dark
NOT houndstone itself
And I mean hell
Maushold is tearing ass too
But it isn't being banned
It's prolly shitter tier
white jungle
Even with tera dark, tons of non-contact moves are flying around, it's EASY to run a fire counter
