Well, Reborn was always made for more Hardcore part of Pokemon community. It's bit like complaing about dark souls being too hard, while it's difficulty it's main selling point for franchise. Some people here, actually are disappointed that it's getting easier over last few releases. Also, there is funny read about Reborn difficulty, if you haven't seen it already. You might want to have a look:

Well, his Golem has Galvanize, and I don't think he remembers there are ability capsules haha I can imagine him fireblitzing Stelix instead of flamethrower, becouse he forgets it has very high defense. I guess we will see

Was wondering. Wouldn't Anna be last E4 before Lin? Since her field can change into "New World" field, that Lin will probably use?

Volcanic top? You sure thats a thing? I'm pretty sure that field effect at top of volcano is just "superheated field"

Hey i just realized that Windy weather is weather that did not exist in other pokemon games. Does anyone knows if it affects combat in anyway? Like rain halving fire moves dmg by 50%? Can it be generated by some moves?

Only think i doubt is lin having full flying / levitate team. I feel that if that is the case, it would be too easy just to set up trick room, especialy since it's duration is boosted in this field to 8 turns. I think she actualy might have gossip gardevoir on her team, and Arc beside her hydreigon. I would bet at her using other creation dragons, especialy giratina. Also i think Ana will be the last of E4, since her field can be transformed into New World field. After battling her Lin could arive and use pulse-arc to change field or stuff. I predict that whole E4 would go like this: We climb E4 from labradora, and fight Heather in the mountains. Than Bennett / laura inside. After that something happens, and we have to return to reborn, (lin finaly opens the gate inside city?). El tries to stop us in holy field, and than inside we finaly fight Ana on startlight field, before lin arives and changes it to new world.

Imo roserade is way more usefull in reborn. You get access to Grassy Terrain which lets you cheese so many gym leaders by changing their field On the other hand when I tried using dralage, she wasn't as good as I wanted her to be, and ended replacing her very soon. Another thing about dralage, as far as remember, you get it rather late in game. Even if you get it from other player, it evolves to dralage at lv 48. Soo leveling it will be a bit painfull as skrelp is bit weak Budew evolves to roselia by happiness, and can be usefull in early game

You can also give Air Baloon to Pokemon as well

Zel - I think he will might end up totaly insane. Does it count as redemption? Solaris - Maybe? At least in Reshiram route? Lin - Haha. No. Aster - I'm pretty sure that he resigned from Team Meteor. Dr. Sigmund - Maybe. He is curious one. I belive that he actualy belives that everything he does was in good intention. I feel Lin is only one he regrets, and she what he did to her hunts him. Thats why he creeps around Lin, not just curiousity but also guilt. I think he might realize in the end, that he fucked up. Blake - I hope not. He didn't care about people starving in Ametrine. He is really just selfish asshole >_< Fern - Yes. We learned in E15 that his behaviour is probably linked to his sister acting like Robot. You can see how emotional he got(probably only once in entire game), when she didn't care about him getting killed in E15 by Meteor. Rini also said that she would follow him and try to change him. Sooo i feel it actualy might happen. El - No, but I don't belive he needs one. He deeply belives in what he does it just doesn't sound right for me, for him to reedem. Bennett - I think he already changed a bit (as suggested by taka)

In E16 i always had at least 1 mon that could abuse any given field at the time. Later I got rossarede that would set up grass terrain, and than either typlosion for erruption sweep, or tanky dralage for toxic field. Always had at least 1 trick room user and destiny bound for bosses. It felt very cheesy, so this time i got more standard team. 4 - 2 special / 2 physical, and 2 tanks/bulky mons (physical / special). I use sword dance lucario / Sniper Kindra for sweep potential, and flygon /gardevoir as more all rounder attackers. Though i still have problem with amaria with this setup, even though i have 2-3 water mons for her Will probably replace 1 attacker for Aloan Ninetails, so it can set up auroa Veil
