  1. whoa that was really nice thank you. :OO I didn't know that was a thing, that's a neat coding thing going on. I agree with you about the characters-- some feel more developed than others -- but I think that's largely due to the screen time they've had; Cain and charlotte for example, were all pretty early, but some others were kind of latergame and you have to find sidequests for them instead of meeting them in the story to find out about them as far as I can tell, so I think that explains some of it. Nevertheless, I was always pretty excited to find out more, even about the villains I detested, haha! That kind of feeling of curiosity is just really good and that kept me playing it. Your favorites are good favorites!! I think my favorites are Shelley, Cain, Charlotte, Taka, and Laura. I liked a lot of them though, so it's actually incredibly hard to pick, especially if you factor in different reasons for liking them. I took a look around Team Showcases (Thank you, btw! I wasn't sure if that was indeed where playthrus were!), and yeah, I'm definitely gonna have to spend a while reading some of these. Absolutely! I have to say I agree there too; that's the feeling I had, even when i had to look up where to go because I'd just plumb forgotten thanks to sleeping or such (which thankfully didn't happen much, weirdly). Quite a few areas - basically any new area - gave me that feeling, and even some events, with factoring in pronoun changes and stuff, helped a lot. It's really impressive how much work went into making even static things change a bit.
  2. At level 11, Jigglypuff (not Igglybuff!) learns Disarming Voice (40 base attack, which is kind of piddly compared to other things); you could use common candies to level it down so it levels up to 11 after you've evolved it, and that Disarming Voice - unfortunately the only move for it that's fairy - will probably have to carry you as far as it can. Wigglytuff also learns "Play Rough" at.... an indeterminate level. I think it's when it evolves, but I can't be sure; but you can teach it, once it's a wigglytuff, regardless of how late its level is, Play Rough, at the move relearner for a heart scale!
  3. I'm not sure how good of a recommendation it'll be -- I don't read many book series-es these days anymore, unfortunately -- but here's some books with sort of similiar things, but they're also "kids' novels" (that kinda deal with things like a lot of what Reborn/rejuvenation do?? weirdly). It's kind of hard to go into detail about stuff without either spoiling things or basically summarizing them. Feel free to disregard my suggestions if they're too out there or kiddy for you! -Warriors, by Erin Hunter (the first two series at least; I haven't read the further ones yet) This is the (in)famous line of books about talking cats who fight each other. In seriousness, it's a pretty good read for the most part-- I've heard bad things about the later series in it, but I've yet to read them and judge them. What I do know of the first 2 series I've read in it are pretty full of intrigue and ~*Drama*~. There's cats betraying each other, full-scale mutinies, hurt feelings, delusions, secrets and all of that sort of thing. I enjoyed them a lot, though it being cats could also be a little offputting; YMMV. It goes into detail about blood and stuff, including death screams and such, so be warned of that. -A Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket This one is a little more comedic - it doesn't take itself seriously, but it also does? it's a weird feeling - and it's very much about dealing with depression and grief and having to figure out things in life. It constntly talks about how unhappy it is and asks you to stop reading it, and it can come off a little "pretentious" sometimes, but I found myself enjoying it a lot, especially as a kid. I'm cluding it here, because it does go over things, and is wierdly a little more postivite. -Animorphs, by K.A. Applegate This one is the closest to Reborn/Rejuvenation as far as I can tell; there's a lot of darker themes in it, including betrayal, deserters, etc; it has a real sense of morality and mortality in it. It has a lot of world-conquest stuff in it sort of similiar to reborn again, but it's... a lot more subtle than Reborn's is. Like, in a terrifying way. I haven't read any of them for a long time, but I remember there's a lot of them and some of them kind of frightened me. Same as Warriors; it goes into detail about blood and stuff. Of note, when I read these books I have that kind of feeling of I have to keep reading to figure out what happens, and what's going to happen to these characters, especially ones I get attached to, and that's what reborn/rejuvenation did/is doing for me(respectively), so maybe it'll work for you.
  4. @Candy (is that how you ping?? I'm new to forums with ping abilities) Edginess is definitely there! Reborn is... mm, very edgy, I'd say - but not in a bad way - it's just, YMMV for lots of different people. different people like it, some don't, etc., it's all valid \o/ i'm jus personally a fan of hte kind of edginess it had, particularly how deep it got with the story and whatnot; it felt "tragic" in a lot of places and I tend to like tragic stories/characters/things like that so it was basically a perfect fit, especially since it was very respectful of a lot of things addressed, which's always nice. The comedy also had me laughing hard, haha, I didn't go over that much in my review, but, I remember a few times my ribs hurt so bad a hour later from how hard I'd laughed; cain moments were some of the biggest ones for that, and Charlotte was great for that as well-- it was a really good balance imo, not sudden, non-gradual shifts from "oh you're sad now" to "haha funny!" to "oh you're sad again," it was more slow and sometimes tried to lighten moods with jokes like real people do, and it felt a lot more human and interesting in terms of the balance of mood (comedy versus darker moments) which I really appreciated. Thank you for the welcome too! \o/ I actually made this just to post this review and thank people for the work they did on mods I had used to help myself play it, but I'm probably going to end up sticking around - at least, for a time - to try and hang out. I've definitely already been poking around, and seeing others' experience of the game and reading their playthroughs has been really fun, and I only just started that too!
  5. Thank you so much for this thread. I'm deaf, so this was impossible for me, but I googled "e18 gym puzzle solution pokemon reborn" and this thread popped up; thank you so much for being willing to post this EDIT: Sorry, didn't see it was dec 2018 last posted. Apologies!
  6. -I tried to find the proper area for this, but this is the general thread for the Reborn Game converation as far as I could tell, so if this would go elsewhere, I apologize in advance! -Hi! so, uhm, this might be sort of long! I'll try to keep it more succicnct though. I'll try to summarize up parts of it - this is basically a review - under readmores ("spoilers"). I'm pretty bad at categorizing things though, so please excuse me if something would fit better someplace else re: the categories! I'm also not very good at articulating things, so I apologize if anything's confusing; if something is, just paste it at me in a spoiler and I'll correct it. First off, I got into it, and started playing it a few days ago - I'm not sure when, time's hard for me to keep track of, particularly with my insomnia - but I kind of... Got... Super hooked? so I've been playing it nonstop, and I just finished the last chapter (no spoilers here, no worries, just mentioning). The most spoilers are re: an earlier chapter (where you meet Anna), which iirc is one of the first few chapters you play anyway, but if that's an issue, let me know and I'll edit out the spoilers and names and whatnot. Writing Player Agency Game Difficulty Design & Visuals (And some Mechanics, too!) Final Note - not under an cut -In summary, I really like pokemon reborn y'all. I actually cried - a lot - playing it because it was just so gorgeous, and a lot of things hit me pretty hard, especially dealing with a lot of the issues that are addressed in it. Some crying was postivite, and some wasn't, but the matter of the fact is, Reborn made me feel emotions so deep, and i'm so glad I gave it a try. It may be "edgy", and it may be "too dark" for some people - and that's fine; people have preferences, and some can't handle "dark" and "edgy", and that is entirely valid and respectable - but sometimes, it's also carthartic and helpful for other people, or more engaging. Thank you to everyone who worked on this game, and who had some part in its creation in some way; it's only been a short time (120-140 hours logged for me) but i really enjoyed it and will continue to enjoy it.
