...even though i could probably do it
iron barbs + rocky helmet + ingrain ferroseed does a lot in avatar battles
got all the 'mons that don't require crossing the eleig also
eko is gonna be Interesting with this party, seeing as most of the crew is weak to one of their types, or to fighting (thanks dario)

simply hit the bird with a big rock 1head

though frogadier can mutable into being rock-type which helps

aerodactyl might be our +1 for exactly that reason
that's for tomorrow's flight though. for now: i sleep
stiff summitBOT
okay once we have wifi i have videos to send
eko was good until i kinda fucked it at the end
but we got there anyway
stiff summitBOT
alright, lessee about some carnation crest gaming.
stiff summitBOT
...y'know, i probably don't need to try this hard to get shelmet and foongus before helena. 
stiff summitBOT
one day we'll remember to send videos LMAO
we beat helena though! and picked up foongus and shelmet afterwards
thank god for stink bombs
turbid gulch
Yoo
stiff summitBOT
okay the issue we're running into here is that of the eight pokemon who have assassin and deceiver
maybe 3-4 of them feel good to use right now LMAO
thievul, skrelp, liepard, and frogadier
we've never been fans of impidimp, mrelp is sadly underperforming (though hopefully evolution changes that), shelmet of course can't evolve yet so its use is very limited
...what's the eighth one again JDJSNDKFJSKF
oh foongus
yeah it just doesn't do enough
if it got leech seed or something, or any way to do passive damage, it'd feel muuuch better to use (for me)
but as-is it just sits there and has lots of health
granted we've used it in exactly one battle so far
and it evolves after raphael
so like, remains to be seen
gloomy drift
Can confirm from my own testing that Mrelp kinda has Rafael Syndrome but it feels better once you're over that hump
And can be used before then since it's caught back on the Fin, though obviously that's no consolation right this moment
stiff summitBOT
yeah, it just felt middling-to-bad after catching it too

and helena!
gloomy drift
why were there two different filesize warnings lmao
stiff summitBOT
that's a great question
gloomy drift
also helena's recording actually proxying gives the humourous impression that she went down much faster than the other two
gloomy drift
wait. ok that's even more confusing lmao
stiff summitBOT
maybe it's a serverside permissions issue...?

I don't think we've fought Terrakion at all since we first beat Tectonic in... 2.2, maybe?
So this time we're trying it out.
M. Dragalge, Amoonguss, and Grimmsnarl form a nice core for the first phase, but I'd be surprised if we beat Terrakion on the first try like this.
Well, never mind. 
stiff summitBOT
Now that we're in Prizca, Bence seems like the obvious pick to fight. We have a surprising number of Grass types.
Of course, we have to say hi to Luna first.
stiff summitBOT
Oh, they both combine both types. Of course.

bored at work and trying the world tour demo got us interested in tectonic again after burning out trying to do challenge runs
so i'm doing a fully randomized run for funsies
randomizing trainer parties and encounters and not keeping similar stat totals for MAXIMUM CHAOS 
and the naming scheme will be getting a random word from the dictionary
...awww, are the starters not randomized? that's a shame
these guys are exempt from the nickname scheme then
i am gonna use all my balls on this fucking porygon-z
NEVER MIND COMPLAINING ON THE INTERNET ALWAYS WORKS
stiff summitBOT
You have absconded with my fungus.
oh my gods the CATCH RATES ON THESE THINGS
wrong proxy
gloomy drift
...awww, are the starters not randomized? that's a shame
yeah fixed encounters aren't randomised
gloomy drift
wrong proxy
i saw minnie. i was scrolled up and didn't see the gif or read the context. i scrolled down. it was not what i expected minnie to post

bored at work and trying the world tour demo got us interested in tectonic again...

jesus christ boy why you so Everything
the beach has meviper (me) and mmantine (wife) so i am Very happy and catching them both
never actually used mmantine or seen it before ingame so i'm excited
stiff summitBOT
i'm sure i will at some point
...attea is your pfp moemon makyan mantine
that fucking rules
gloomy drift
It is
One of the Moemon artists is in this server (not Mormon, autocorrect) and is working on a Moemon mod for Tectonic, including edits for the Makyan forms
stiff summitBOT
THAT FUCKING RULES
abstract jetty
mormon artists 
gloomy drift
Inherited from Cosmog but yeah really funny
Z-Splash Solgaleo was real in Gen 7
Since as a joke the Z effect for splash was a mondo stat boost
stiff summitBOT
SJKHGSBKJGHBSEKJHGSE
this thing's moveset is splash/confuse ray/pacify/sunsteel strike
what a fucking set of moves
This ball has a close to 5% chance of catching Solgaleo.
well i have 20 balls so that's 100% right? right
gloomy drift
Around 64 if I remember my binomial shit right
But also failed catches boost the chance
stiff summitBOT
THAT EXPLAINS A LOT
it only took like four balls
solgaleo also isn't marked as having a unique - i assume it's sunsteel strike?
gloomy drift
Yeah because Necrozma fused form also has it the thing gets confused
And it's ability isn't unique because it's a clear body clone and we just made every instance of clear body that one
gloomy drift
Yeah because Necrozma fused form also has it the thing gets confused
This is fixed on Dev btw so we can make something read as unique if it "should" be even if it's technically not
stiff summitBOT
Okay, right before the gym, our team is Solgaleo, Chandelure, Porygon-Z, Relicanth, M-Seviper, and M-Mantine. Not too bad.
we found a porygon-MAV earlier that i put a shitton of work into trying to catch but the fucker doesn't get any physical moves until level 30-something so it's staying boxed 
stiff summitBOT
having a very bad time at work so time for gaming
gloomy drift
gaming!
stiff summitBOT
debating whether or not i should use the poke x-ray
i think it's more fun to get surprised by enemy teams
gloomy drift
yeah that makes sense for a rando
stiff summitBOT
it is very funny to see that lambert's team is snom, yungoos, illumise, scorbunny, and fucking dracozolt
actually yeah let's do this cursed why not
THE FUCK YOU MEAN LICKILICKY
oh wait cursed adds an extra pokemon right SJHBFKSJHBDGKS
gloomy drift
yep ajdsf;lkj
...i was looking at the sidebar like "who the fuck is togetic and why did they join this thread when they're not active in the server" then i remembered we accidentally pinged them while talking about the pokemon 
stiff summitBOT
LMAO
i think that might be their one and only message in the server yeah
oooh, important tactical note
randomized pokemon no longer have bespoke movesets
stiff summitBOT
yeah that makes perfect sense
G. GLASTRIER...
I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW YOU WERE IN THE GAME WHAT THE FUCK
okay that actually super wasn't a problem never mind

posts that fucking curse of ra meme but it's sunsteel strike instead
i hate this meme but i can't get it out of my head unfortunately
...oh i forgot there's another 'mon left
there we go
tired kettle
gloomy drift
That's clearly sand tomb not sunsteel strike
gloomy drift
Uh ora is magnetic gauntlet
stiff summitBOT
RIGHT that one
gloomy drift
Launcher is partial dex completion which in a rando is... Not necessarily impossible?
But the glove is nice yes
stiff summitBOT
the catch rates on some of these pokemon are completely bonkers so i feel like i'm gonna need it LMAO
oh that kitty is Not Randomized
gloomy drift
maow
Oh yeah the avatar
Yeah avatars are uh. Always a customised set. And we don't have sets for basically anything that's not already an avatar in game. So it would be kinda. Awkward
Also the randomiser wasn't written by us and so doesn't know avatars exist
stiff summitBOT
makes sense makes sense
also hey hybrid fighter is one of the coolest fucking abilities ever

(I say this not because I feel like it needs justifying per se more because it's potentially interesting technical detail)
