My first Reborn competetive team is ready, idk why it took me so long, but I'm glad It's there now.

I would like to thank Logan_the_balalaika from the bottom of my heart, for helping me track down 2 more of the episode 14 updates I was missing. They're now safely backed up.

I typed this up like an hour ago, but turns out I didn't click send, that's such a me thing to do.

The current version of the archives have been released on the Patreon Discord server with Ame's permission.

I think I just got a win of the CENTURY, an absolutely incredible turn of events, a major breakthrough and an absolute miracle. Thanks to the illustrious MonkeyDog and his quick check with Amethyst, POKEMON REBORN EPISODE 11 has been kindly donated and added to the archive. Yes THE Episode 11. I am still shaking. Episode 11 was lost as far as I could tell, there were no traces of it after Episode 12 came out and eventual Monkeypro.net (a website that used to host Pokemon Reborn, owned by MonkeyDog) shutdown. I've searched far and wide and I could find a single reaupload anywhere. Along with Episode 11 MonkeyDog provided me with a version of Episode 12 that was earlier to the one I had archived. I can't believe this is real, I am so happy right now!

As a distraction from everything, I finally got around to playing the Starlight Divide demo.

Day 4 of searches. Rogue links, I will find you, and I will DOWNLOAD you!

3 Days of search, I don't think it's possible to find anything more. Whoever said that "It's on the interner forever" was full of ..... Because Unless someone has them locally on their PC, Im pretty sure episodes 1-8 and 11 are lost media at this point.

2 Days of search so far. I want to also mention that if at any point the staff would prefer that I stop digging for old clients, please let me know and I'll stop.

So since I made my last status, like 10 hours ago, I went on a detective spree, trying to Speedrun ruining my pc with trojans  find as many past Pokemon Reborn episodes as I physically can in order to have a some sort of archive of them. I looked through every forum topic I could find both new and old ones, every announcement I found, every shady site I went, my best friend who had an old client,  I went even as far as the 2nd or Goth Forbid 3rd page of Google Search list, to find any sort of rogue download link I could click, and to my surprise, it did not go that bad, I'll show my findings at the bottom. I understand that staff expressed that there's no real reason to go back to older episodes except exploits of course but shhhh, let's not give people ideas, but in all honesty, It was an immense amount of fun trying to get them, I guess my ex shiny hunting and IV breeding nature is showing. I would love to be able to get my hands on all the episodes I could, I'd love to archive as much of them as possible, mostly for myself, but Im pretty sure there's a lot of other people curious about the olden days of Pokemon Reborn the game.

Here's what I have so far. I actually tested all of the clients and to my surprise, they work. If by some miracle you have an episode I don't have, I would loooove to have it... please let me have it.

The thing I'll miss the most when ep 19 drops, are the trailers like at the end of episode 18, I wonder if someone archived them.

OOF, I went offline for like 2 seconds, hope no one noticed.

I love seeing my friends play, we have completely different playstyles, like I like to set up my sweeper, but I also like a bit bulkier pokemon who can still pack a punch even without setups, my other friend just goes all out offensive "You can't kill me if you're dead" kind of team, my other friend, who keeps beating me on showdown, likes to have a very gimmicky teams that work exceptionally well... agaist me at least. I love that all of those style work and do produce wins, and they manage to do so in completely different ways, it's beautiful.

I know I am a steel type trainer at heart, but Goodra will forever be my favorite, even the non Hisuian one.

Happy international women's day everyone!

I love reading through some older forum topics, seeing past points of view, or what is still relevant, past struggles and victories of people in the Reborn world. It's facsinating. I want that meta Reborn lore!

With the announcements of SV, I lack the motivation to play compatetive Sword anymore...

So, which starter are you going to pick? Which do you usually pick? I went for:

-Squirtle Gen 1
-Cyndaquil Gen 2
-Treecko Gen 3
-Piplup gen 4
-[Error 404] gen 5
- Fennekin gen 6
-Rowlet gen 7
-Grokey gen 8 (Though boxed it and used a Rookide)
-Snivy in Reborn.

I would love to pick something other than grass type for gen 9, but somehow they make grass types look the most appealing.

I am so very much NOT hyped for gen 9.

I am retiring my season in pokemon SwSh. I managed to get to poke ball tier rank 6, that was the last rank before great ball, got pretty close, but Im satisfied for my first ever ranked season. I have to say, Dynamaxing in competetive leaves me with mixed feelings, I'd much rather have the showdown format as official, but I guess gotta play with cards given. Wish me luck next season! I plan to get much further next time.

I am misplaying left and right in pokemon today.
