you cant deny full 'vee teams are cute and fun

[opaque skiff]

Penny is actually my fav character in ScVi

[jaunty holly]

i didnt play but same

when she was first revealed a lot of trans ppl related to her so i immedietly latched on

eevee enjoyer with a short androgenous cut and very Very nerdy and online

plus, yknow, eevee based

[opaque skiff]

idk all that but I simply found her cute

[jaunty holly]

shes def cyute

its hard to make an unapealing nerdy girl

plus making a character obsessed with 1 pokemon/branch of mons is usually also a plus

[tender summit]

who's this one in the back?

[jaunty holly]

im gonna guess pumpkaboo

[tender summit]

well considering it's cat paired with cat

my guess is an espeon, cus those eyes don't really fit any other cat pokemon I can think of

and they (kinda) glow

maybe delcatty?

[jaunty holly]

this is ktiy

i love him dont take this from me

[tender summit]

I can see either or in terms of (the shiny part of) the eye

as I'm looking thru the delcatty dex entries, I'm feeling more and more confident it's them

I legit thought this was just called "weapon"

[haughty needle]

why are the names like that

[tender summit]

pokerogue has a fusion feature; that's 2 different pokemon fused together

so in this case, I think it's (wea)vile, and dra(pion) = weapion

[open panther]

this is one of those "wait wait wait" moments

@sage cargo your boi is finally officially An Uber™️

[sage cargo]

what is a uber

[solid mountain]

banned from Smogon OU

which is the "main" tier of Smogon competetive

basically "this fucker is really strong in the meta and we don't like that, so yeet that bitch"

[haughty needle]

In Smogon the default tier is OU

The list is:
Ubers
OU
UU
RU
NU
PU
ZU

How it works is that all pokemon (bar cover art legendaries) are allowed on OU at first, if it's too weak to keep up with stronger mons, it gets moved to a lower tier where weaker pokemon get a chance to shine (an OU pokemon can't be used in UU, it's too strong for that lower tier, but lower tier mons can be used in higher tiers)

Pokemon to strong for OU (and lower) are moved to Ubers, where all the OP stuff is at

This means that Kyurem was too strong to be running around in OU, and is now hanging out with the big boys

[solid mountain]

And then there's Anything Goes...

actually wait shit, they prolly got rid of that after Mega Rayquaza stopped being a thing

[haughty needle]

Nah Zacian Crowned and Zacian Heroes of Many Battles got the AG treatment in SwSh

it's so stupid

I lost the run to a levitate (passive) metagross

[jaunty holly]

scolipede numero uno ☝️

[tender summit]

i mean, with speed boost (and stamina once I get it), I'd fucking believe it

[jaunty holly]

hes my fav mon

[solid mountain]

clearly it's because you didn't nickname your Pokemon

[tender summit]

I only have 1 nicknamed mon

[jaunty holly]

[tender summit]

behold, the boy, my only nicknamed mon

[solid mountain]

you can get Partner Eevee?

[opaque skiff]

Roaming form always existed

[tender summit]

i didn't know it existed in pokerogue was all

[opaque skiff]

Oh ic

Well they have no reason not to have it

[tender summit]

out of curiosity; does it change their stats at all?

(in the normal games I mean)

[opaque skiff]

Yes

It is less defensive and fast

[tender summit]

packs the same punch tho I assume?

[solid mountain]

just some of my "great taste" in names

[tender summit]

also, adding onto the list of other things you wouldn't expect to obtain in this game

[opaque skiff]

Offensively yes

AZ's Floette is way stronger than OG Floette

[tender summit]

how does it compare to florges?

[opaque skiff]

Normal Floette : 54/45/47/75/98/52 (tot. 371)
AZ Floette : 74/65/67/125/128/92 (tot. 551)
Flogres : 78/65/68/112/154/75 (tot. 552)

Offensively AZ Floette is better than Flogres, defensively Flogres is bulkier, especially spdef

total IV almost the same

[tender summit]

makes up for it tho with the much higher speed tho

bulk doesn't matter if you don't get hit

[opaque skiff]

92 is too slow to not get hit tho

[tender summit]

it's faster than pikachu

man I want the game to grace me with a shiny legendary already

[jaunty holly]

i lowkey hate getting shinies in pokemon when its not the latest game, what am i gonna do with this shiny driftblim in a 2024 Y playthrough??

[opaque skiff]

Hey at least partner Pikachu is fast

(its speed is whopping 120)

[tender summit]

I have 62 shinies, and none of them are even psudo-legendaires

[tender summit]

light ball that bitch

[jaunty holly]

120 is much more than i excpected waow

[opaque skiff]

Flutter Mane 135

[tender summit]

wanna know something funny in pokerogue?

why stop at giving pikachu 1 light ball? you can have an unlimited amount if you're lucky enough

fast and buff as fuk pikachu

[opaque skiff]

I still cannot believe that they thought "yeah let's make a pokemon with 200 speed" and then they also thought "you know what we can do even faster"

[haughty needle]

Give Regieleki a choice scarf then have it spam Agility

[opaque skiff]

(Flutter Mane's base speed is 135, but with its ability it can start with speed faster than Regieleki with 200)

[tender summit]

priority be like:

[opaque skiff]

It's too fast it can't do anything else than going even further beyond

Regieleki do be too fast that it can break the trick room speed calculation

[tender summit]

oh i didn't account for the electric surge pikachu could have in pokerogue too

they literally turn into a light particle

wait oh dear lord, that'd be so good to get actually

earth eater heatran could nullify the "eight fucking ground types" meme

THE BRIDGE

[tender summit]

man, I wish I had Chien-Pao; I love the speedy creature on my team

sadly I haven't even seen them in the wild

[jaunty holly]

when me and kratta drove to seaquestriafest in the middle of may, the bridge incident was still pretty recent, and we had to drive over a really long bridge over some water for maybe 10 mins

with a huge boat coming our way......

i said either way were going to seaquestria

[opaque skiff]

I love Chien-Pao's dex entry

This Pokémon can control 100 tons of fallen snow. It plays around innocently by leaping in and out of avalanches it has caused.

Can casually murder a whole village and then play around over it

[tender summit]

also what the hell are these dex numbers?

8901?

[opaque skiff]

It's probably because Ursaluna is 901 but it's in a different form

Like how your AZ Floette was 2670 (og floette is 670)

[jaunty holly]

common chien pao W

[tender summit]

I wonder what's with the 1000's then

cus if it's from the generation they came from, it'd be 9901; close but no cigar

[tender summit]

I have a definite answer for you; yes, you can hatch them from eggs

[tender summit]

what the hell is "dada" form zarude?

[opaque skiff]

daddy

[tender summit]

wtf it's a movie tie-in?

[opaque skiff]

Why did I get bonked

It is daddy form

[tender summit]

you saying that unprompted without context is why ya got bonked

i just wanted to know what "daddy" form even meant in this case

I looked it up tho

and yea it's just a little boy called this specific zarude "dada"

Here's the thing

You can have multiple multi lenses

Pair that with population bomb, and you can hit an enemy 40 times at most

with 1 use

Also pair with with 3 kings rocks (which give a 90% chance to flinch per hit)*40 consecutive hits, and then you get... a number

Only way they's not get flinched is if they're a ghost type, or a gigantimax pokemon, which literally can't flinch

on the oposite end:

[rocky escarp]

First Ponymon update is out

Some minor fixes plus a nerf to Vinyl Scratch

[jaunty holly]

vinyl no boomburst!!

oh

i should finish reading

[jaunty holly]

i love you eiscue

[rocky escarp]

yeah she still has a boomburst-like move

just not Boomburst itself because well

that

[jaunty holly]

are all unicorns psychic?

its a cool gimmick if so

[rocky escarp]

they are not

I believe the only universal type across a pony race is all pegasi being Flying type

I guess all the alicorns share the Fairy typing

And almost all the unicorns have either a Fairy or Psychic typing. The only unicorn that doesn't have a Fairy or Psychic typing is Tempest, who is a Dark/Electric type

[arctic marsh]

New cards of the day

[tender summit]

I wonder if mono-flying type ponymons are gonna be far more plentiful than regular pokemon, where there's only like, 3

Bro what the hell, normally I only get 1 ex a day on a good day maybe

[jaunty holly]

her name is mega delphox

not equestria girl

[haughty needle]

could you tell me how you got custom megas working?

[rocky escarp]

This isn't a custom mega lol someone just nicknamed her something funny

But this is a mod!

[haughty needle]

ahh
yeah I saw the document you posted, congrats on having the Ponymons work in action!

pretty awesome

[rocky escarp]

y'all should join the Discord and play

[haughty needle]

could u DM me the discord

[rocky escarp]

Its in my bio!

[solid mountain]

LFG double shiny in today's Pokedoku!

[jaunty holly]

pretty sick

whenever i get a shiny in showdown i get so excited

[solid mountain]

gobleen

or as i nicknamed
"Gemlin"

(because gems? LAUGH.)

[tender summit]

Oh I thought you were making a play off of "gremlin"

Tho you likely were

And I'm just stoopid

Oh also, I made a realization about fighting the final boss in pokerogue

All you need to completely shut them down with a single pokemon, goes as follows

You'd need a steel type pokemon fused with a Dachsbun to just, completely shut them down

||Steel type: shuts down sludge bomb||
||Fairy type: Shuts down Eternabeam & Dynamax Cannon||
||Well baked body (Dachsbun's ability): Shuts down Flamethrower & buffs the pokemon||

[solid mountain]

hope to get a shiny one soon then

[tender summit]

[forest rivet]

A new frosty remix appears.
https://youtu.be/ZPS4ANZUMVI?si=ltRoihObpWfTylKX

[tender summit]

my brain can not comprehend how to do inverse type fights in pokerogue

[solid mountain]

i think i'm going to start a run with Bronzong and Fidough, since looking into it, I would lose Levitate but I would gain Bulletproof... Which isn't that useful, but it blocks some sources of damage and it's the best I have until I can get like, Earth Eater Aron or Levitate Varoom.

at least, if I'm reading how DNA Splicers work properly, should be fine since they're both primarily Steel type, while the ability draws on the sacrifice Pokemon (Fidough)

(Thank god Well-Baked Body isn't it's Hidden Ability)

and this is why Pickup is hella busted

[tender summit]

you should celebrate when you find the extremely rare golden egg

rather than increase the exp gained by 30% (?), it gets raised by 100%

[solid mountain]

yeeeeeee

TIL Raticate is slower than a fucking bug

[solid mountain]

Oh hey a shiny- TOO BAD IT'S A TRAINER POKEMON

[solid mountain]

PRUPL

[solid mountain]

lmaoooo

[solid mountain]

oh god what have i created

(That's Clefairy and Yamask for context)

[solid mountain]

shiny rock

[tender summit]

I mean tbf, that "bug" is essentially a horse

(Not to mention it also gets speed boost as their... hidden ability?)

Yee, hidden ability

[solid mountain]

it do be a heckin nyoom, yes

[tender summit]

Whenever I see scolipede in pokerogue now, I can't not think of LEEEAAAOOOST cus that was my go to music when doing a run with them

[tender summit]

Side not: I'm jelly that you have 2 different shiny legendaries just in view here

(There's probably more if ya scroll down)

And I'm upsetti spaghetti cus I only have 1 as far as I remember

[solid mountain]

they're not very good tbf

[tender summit]

That's why you back it up with actual good pokemon

Like lumineon

I'm not joking btw, I managed to get thru the end with lumineon on like, 5 separate occasions

It's primarily because water bubble + STAB + rain dance + bouncy bubble = that bitch will never die unless they're one shot

Also swift swim so they're more than likely gonna move first in the rain

[tender summit]

mine aren't that great either, but the bird did manage to lug me thru a run completely

out of curiosity @solid mountain what are your pokemon with passives?

[solid mountain]

[tender summit]

here's a list of mine

[solid mountain]

twilight sparkle garlarean ponyta

😭

[tender summit]

one of my first shinies, period

[solid mountain]

what's the heart next to Eevee mean?

[tender summit]

partner eevee

...which you can evolve or g-max for some reason

[solid mountain]

Well Gmax makes some sense, lol

[tender summit]

give it an eveolite, then that shit gets crazy

[solid mountain]

also epic shiny zubat looks SIIIICK

😭

[tender summit]

and dont get me started on parnet pikachu

you can give them an eveolite... & a fucking light ball

[tender summit]

my favorite shiny i have is the bundle of radishes that is arctovish

(in terms of color pallet)

[solid mountain]

i'm in pain

[tender summit]

Ay at least you got a shiny squirtle

[solid mountain]

Tru

[solid mountain]

Least powerful Furret:

WOOOOOOOO

[solid mountain]

this fucker is going to be a tad ridiculous in sun

[solid mountain]

Huh, that's not a Grass type.

Brute Bonnet would be a great pair with Cherrim's Passive but it just costs too damn much to make for reliable Challenge team. Maybe for an Endless run it'd be better.

bruh of course my rival has a fire starter

[solid mountain]

YEEEEEEEE

[tender summit]

Pair them with slugma

I'm not kidding: they gave slugma primal groudon's ability as a passive

[jaunty holly]

oh

I thought we were one hair off from r2

[solid mountain]

SLUGMA BA-

[rocky escarp]

Small Ponymon update

Next update will be dedicated to balance changes

[rocky escarp]

[solid mountain]

Scraggy?

[open panther]

I think I won this match

A KO every 11 seconds. 53 KO's, 6 Assist and 0 faints

[tender summit]

was varoom's hidden ability always slow start?

[solid mountain]

Yup

Because it's an engine

(It becomes Filter when it evolves)

[solid mountain]

i don't remember having a Manaphy egg.

PARTNER EEVEE

[tender summit]

just saw this now; you can eviolite them and g-max them to increase their viability even further

pair that with the passive pickup and adaptability as their hidden ability (and like, every partner move they learn as partner eevee) and suddenly you have a very strong pokemon that you could take very late into endless

[solid mountain]

any other recommendations for Endless?

[tender summit]

well, you need something with pickup, that's a given

you need something with good type coverage

make sure that most of the things have passives that you bring

bring 1 legendary (they increase the point total you can start with from 10 to 15)

and preferably something with pokerus, but that's not required

most important thing tho is the pickup, and to make sure your pokemon can keep up with the level scaling

[solid mountain]

Okay, so.
Partner Eevee, something with Pickup (Probably Zigzag or Sentret), Tyrunt (Shiny + POkerus)

[tender summit]

oh also shinies, so you can get things like the exp share early

cus without the exp shares, you're gonna get left in the dust

really thats it, your main focuses are: passives, pickup specifically (you can work with something like magician, but pickup is more consistent), and shinies

[solid mountain]

no leggos?

[tender summit]

the things i mentioned were top priorities, but you wanna bring at least 1 legendary as a safety net

not too many tho

cus they level up slow as balls normally

you're gonna want to try to pickup a few lucky eggs to balance out the slow exp curve

[solid mountain]

out of all of these, which would you pick?

ah wait shit i forgot the Pickup mon (Eevee doesn't have Passive yet)

[tender summit]

what form is that keldeo?

[solid mountain]

regular i believe

[tender summit]

hm, which do you want the passive of?

because gaining candies are the main reason you'd do endless (as well as tickets and shiny hunting)

I'd honestly go with glastrier

[solid mountain]

the ice honse?

[tender summit]

ye

chilling neigh is fucking nuts

[solid mountain]

i picked Manaphy

[tender summit]

[solid mountain]

Rearranging my party a bit i had an extra point

also Boomburst Eevee + a Ghost type

(or anything with Telepathy)

[tender summit]

keep in mind

that learnset

I guarantee you're gonna lose most of it

becuase the partner moves are just that good

also veevee volley is just, return, but special and never misses

[solid mountain]

But keep Boomburst, right?

[tender summit]

if you want

[solid mountain]

[tender summit]

but keep in mind, that can hit your teammates too

[solid mountain]

Hence the Ghost type!

[tender summit]

but what if they're dead?

[tender summit]

also nice

[solid mountain]

i mean, it's already dead, it's a Ghost type!

[tender summit]

[solid mountain]

but yeah, i'd have to spam Zing Zap

or the eevee thing

[tender summit]

the learnset I'd recommend (iir what their level up learnset is) veevee volley, bouncy bubble, baddy bad, and whatever else move you want

preferably a special move assuming you have a +spatk nature

[solid mountain]

i have bubble, i'll give it Baddy and Volley when they come up

[open panther]

Vee

Got this today

[jaunty holly]

aww

[solid mountain]

this is how my last run went

still got rekt by wave 200

[tender summit]

You saying you haven't seen eternatus on endless before?

[solid mountain]

needed Pickup on Eevee

[solid mountain]

YOOOO

almost a shame that i have a win with Furret, it's an amazing Pickup mon otherwise

essence of power

bruh, lmao

[tender summit]

Quit hogging all the shiny odds

[solid mountain]

I DON'T KNOW WHY THE GAME WANTS ME TO HAVE SHINY SENTRETS

[tender summit]

[solid mountain]

of any Pokemon not to have Punk Rock this is the biggest shame

[tender summit]

That's their passive

I was showing how it's regular ability (which is big pecks/keen eye normally) turned into one of the best abilities in the game

[solid mountain]

oh, good, lmao

[tender summit]

Pair that with a milti lense which basically is parental bond but an item and torch song which powers up their spatk each consecutive hit, not even mentioning how magician procks twice per turn and it has baton pass with their torch song... you can see the point

Also lemme say: bidoof is fucking funny

It gets moody as its hidden ability (or unaware as it's second regular ability), cosmic power, aqua step and power trip

That shit is nuts

[tender summit]

uh... meow?

[solid mountain]

[tender summit]

Wait, prankster curse is kinda hilarious to use against eternatus

[tender summit]

this is what happens when I fuckle with the shuckle:

[solid mountain]

https://wiki.pokerogue.net/starters:pokedex

pokerogue has a wiki now

[solid mountain]

Well it always had a wiki but now it has a detailed Pokedex ✨

For instance, I didn't know Hisuin forms could be evolved via time of day (At least for the starters in LA)

or Alolan forms requiring different Stones (Alolan Exeggutor needs a Sun Stone but Raichu require a Shiny Stone)

lmao someone really hated the regular shiny for Moltres

though i like the idea of making the standard shiny their Galarean colours, like how the Galarean forms have their Kanto colours

[solid mountain]

this is the funniest thing i've seen all day

[tender summit]

my favorite shiny variants are all of the tier 3 shinies for all the furfrou variants

[solid mountain]

KOISHI

I would recgonise that hat and colour combo ANYWHERE

[tender summit]

they're all eeveelutions

[solid mountain]

no that is defnitely a koishi

plus there's only 8 eeveelutions
I think

[tender summit]

7 eeveelutions, regular eevee, and shiny eevee

[solid mountain]

and for some fucking reason
Koishi

well she has a habit of popping up just about anywhere, I suppose

[tender summit]

regular eevee, shiny eevee, jolteon, leafeon, vaporeon, sylveon, espeon, flareon, glaceon, umbreon

in that order, left to right, top to bottom

[haughty needle]

this is partner eevee erasure

[solid mountain]

the koishi dog has made my day

[tender summit]

keep telling yaself that, but they're def eeveelutions

I also really like the tier 2 shinies as well

they just become red velvet dogs

very red, much velvet

[solid mountain]

i'm not crazy, you're crazy!

[tender summit]

vapo crying rn

wait no, ya erased glaceon from existence instead

[haughty needle]

who

[tender summit]

y'all aren't gonna fucking gaslight me, are ya?

[solid mountain]

Then what is the Debaunte form meant to be?

[tender summit]

vapo

the yellow ears are the thing that tell most

[solid mountain]

It's way too green to be vapo tho

maybe the blue form is meant to be both Vapo and Glaceon?
It's got a mix of pale and deep blue

[tender summit]

jokes on you, vapo is actually tinted green a little

[solid mountain]

this is like one of those illusion things
like two bears high fiving

[tender summit]

ok how bout this screenshot?

[haughty needle]

i think the issue is that they use too much of the dark blue on top of Vaporeon's head/back

[solid mountain]

look it's the hat

[tender summit]

yeah that is a bit of problem, but inverting the colors in that way just wouldn't look right

[solid mountain]

i'm not crazy

especially with both the base and regular shinies using a yellow ribbon

also it plays into the common meme of "Ghost Eeveelution" because
you know
invisible

[tender summit]

i think that was just one of those "eh, it was convenient" kinda things the devs did

[solid mountain]

the koishi dog is real

[tender summit]

it would have been hilarious if one of the variants was based off animal crossing villagers

[tender summit]

The koishi dog is

[solid mountain]

comedy

[tender summit]

I forget you play with a controller

[tender summit]

you pray 🙏

attack the higher level one, since the lower one will prob have lower attack stat

[tender summit]

the game just said "fuck this guy" cus once you exhaust all options, you literally exhausted all options (it's pre-determined on what the ai does, so once I didn't have any alternatives, I just had to give up )

Fucker looks S I C K

[haughty needle]

[tender summit]

half the shiny Pokémon i've gotten from the event are Pokémon shiniest I already have

Like I came across a random shiny shroomish 4 times now

The other half... are all boring as shit tier 1 shinies

[solid mountain]

i'm happy to have Iron Juggy and MANAPHY

just sucker punch out of nowhere "Here's a tier 3 shiny Mythical, bitch!"

manaphy is so good fr

i need to fuse it to a Steel type at some point

[tender summit]

[tender summit]

the alternate ending sprite looks really nice

[solid mountain]

i think this is slightly rigged

[solid mountain]

how do i encounter this fucker two runs in a row

[solid mountain]

the one time the fucking Esciue doesn't have Ice Face

LMAO GET ONE SHOT I D I O T

[solid mountain]

[tender summit]

so interesting fun fact I found about eiscue: if you were to use a super effective move that does not make contact (ala flamethrower) it just, ignores ice face

[solid mountain]

FUCKING LMAO

[tender summit]

noice

[solid mountain]

NOICE FACE

gamefreak knew what they were doing
cheeky fuckers

[solid mountain]

well asctually

Ice Face does not protect against special moves.

[tender summit]

close enough

[solid mountain]

so it did have Ice Face, but since Manaphy hit it with Bouncy Bubble, it just went through Ice Face

[tender summit]

it's just flamethrower is the main move I found out that with

[solid mountain]

Any Special move works

[tender summit]

also I don't like how they stare directly at you, not at an angle like how most games work

[solid mountain]

"what have you done"

i think this combo is a tad OP

[tender summit]

you took my only [face], now I'm gonna [freeze to death]

[tender summit]

what do ya mean, you just need stomp to deal with minimize

[solid mountain]

i meant my side of the party-

[tender summit]

ah

but yeah, fun fact: stomp has a special property with minimize

it stays 100% accurate, and deals double damage

[solid mountain]

yea it deals extra damage and bypasses accuracy checks

[tender summit]

you just fucking plankton the mini pokemon

[solid mountain]

Lightning Rod Iron Juggy with a Water type that negates Fire damage and boosts Water
And also both have healing moves that have STAB (Oblivion Wing and Bouncy Bubble)
AND BOTH HAVE SPECIAL BOOSTING MOVES. AND MOVES THAT HIT BOTH ENEMY POKEMON.

[tender summit]

oh also, an epiphany struck me last night when talking with a friend

[solid mountain]

wait, Lightning Rod doesn't affect allied Pokemon, right?

[tender summit]

no it does

that's why dishcharge is the best option when dealing with a partner with lightning rod

it hits the opponents anyways

[solid mountain]

But if it was just the enemy Pokemon it wouldn't?

[tender summit]

i don't follow

[solid mountain]

'Cus Manaphy has Wildbolt Storm and I was just worried that would get cancelled by Lightning Rod

Like if an Ally pokemon uses an Electric move

[tender summit]

it'd power them up, but I believe it should still hit the other mon

but I'm no pokemon expert

I'm no wolfey

[solid mountain]

i just tested it, Wildbolt Storm isn't affected

(It doesn't hit your ally)

but yeah, your thing?

[solid mountain]

sorry i tend to get kind of tagenty when i have thoughts

[tender summit]

anyways, you remember a few weeks ago I came up with the idea of [a steel type] fused with dachbun to deal with everything eternatus can throw at you?

well I found out that metagross is the best pokemon to fuse it with, cus you also get the passive levitate, which makes this hypothetical pokemon have... 0 weaknesses

the only way you can circumvent this is with a neutralizing gas pokemon, and using a fire type move

cus passives don't get deactivated with neutralizing gas

also, lemme say this

metagross

fucking carries you to the end of a classic run

[solid mountain]

too bad metagross is a pain to get

[tender summit]

especially if you can mega-evolve it to give it tough claws

[solid mountain]

i think i should have Manaphy lead, because Iron Jug is initially stronger and since I can't guarantee a double battle, it means that I waste less turns buffing Manaphy if they're in the lead slot.

[tender summit]

cus apparantly (and I didn't know this) but every move they had on their kit get buffed by tough claws; drain punch and triple axel are obvious (they're punching and kicking moves respectively) meteor mash is a little odd, but the really weird one is stomping tantrum also gets buffed

[solid mountain]

[tender summit]

and as you know, meteor mash and triple axel are both 90 acurate, which is like, the perfect accuracy checks in my mind when dealing with stomping tantrum

[solid mountain]

when will i get Origin Pulse Manaphy

[tender summit]

now stepping away from the mtagross rant, I should prolly mention that lumineon is like, my most used pokemon, period

I got thru 4 different runs with them in my team

[solid mountain]

quiver dance, freeze dry, O R I G I N P U L S E

ngl sounds like shitty Manaphy

[tender summit]

swift swim + rain dance + waterbubble + bouncy bubble/origin pulse + STAB is the funniest thing to me

that's not even mentioning it can get shit like tailwind... for some fucking reason

[solid mountain]

you know what would pair with it
manaphy

Well you'd need the Passive for Primordial Sea-
"Yes hc we're aware of your fucking Manaphy"

[tender summit]

why is this fucker out in the wild?

it's a paradox pokemon just, in level 52 for some reason

I got them, but doubling up on the wtf factor, why is it in a dojo?

[solid mountain]

i mean, it is the Xmas event!

[tender summit]

ngl, I forgot glaraing meowth existed

[tender summit]

something something red lobster

[tender summit]

this could very well be the most disgusting being I've ever seen in pokerogue

[tender summit]

bro, that was the easiest sweep of my life

[solid mountain]

DISGAUSTING

cool shiny tree

[tender summit]

thamk, i hand them for a while now

[tender summit]

oh also, behold, my first pokemon with every shiny variant

[solid mountain]

Blueberry my beloved
