  1. Welp they largely differ not just in roles and gameplay, but also in tiers, with Flygon, Noivern and Camerupt being mid-tier mons (I am not up-to-date on the last Smogon suspect discussions, but they should all be RU or UU at most IIRC), Gardevoir being firmly in the top tier OU (and an effective one at that, her mega form being one of the dominant special attackers of the tier), Cryogonal seeing respectable usage in NU (or was it RU? My memory plays tricks on me sometimes) and Tropius being... Welp, I honestly cannot think of any kind words to say about Tropius, sorry. So yeah, some better knowledge of the tier system, some deeper understanding of how the current metagame works and more importantly some more precise info as to what Pokemon you want to use in what team for what tier would be required, before talking about individual builds...
  2. 98 episodes and counting. At this rate, even if I slow down a bit to save internet connection, I should have the whole first series in my hardrive by the end of the week, and then I'll see what to do with the (currently ongoing) relaunch...

      The individual episodes are actually pretty small (not even 50 MB each), and my computer's memory is more or less empty anyway, as I have many external storage devices in which I keep... Pretty much everything really. This FT collection itself, once completed, will be put in a compressed folder and moved to one of said devices (or more than one, this is a very precious collection I don't want to get lost).

      Not even 50 mbs? What kind of shit quality

    4. Tomas Elliot

      Tomas Elliot

      Dunno the exact quality, but they are actually pretty good. As in, not worse than my TV screen, which is all I ask from a video anyway. I am not one of those people who deem everything non-HD as "shit".

  3. Ok since it was brought to my attention that the form for contributions was still in the OP, I have edited it out since we are now in the final phase of development, so we are not accepting contributions anymore. Unless you are a music expert willing to help with the OST, that is.
  4. 40 Episodes downloaded in roughly 3 hours. Gotta keep at it.

      Holy shit bro slow down you're gonna die of fairy tail overdose.

      That would be a honorable death.

  5. As of this moment, I am officially dead. I got my hands on a device that lets me download literally any video I want, from any given site, without any limitations or issues. Fairy Tail (old and new series), YGO Arc-V, what else could I download? Sky is the limit... I am gonna create a library of memories for when I am old!

      B-but... What about Se7en?

      Don't worry, I got that covered ;)

      nice knowing you tomas

  6. Uff, I want Wendy to do the shadowy face, glowy red eyes thing all other Dragon Slayers do <.<

  7. Guys could you please quit the random blabbering, like, right now? We were already warned by a mod once, this topic is vital for Se7en as a project and I don't want it to be locked. Thank you.
  8. While you might want to elaborate on why exactly you are not sold on Lucario, I do agree that, sometimes, I don't get why it got all that popularity. I mean, we are talking about a Pokemon that got its own movie, its own Smash character and, as mentioned, has a prominent role in X/Y, but of all the cool Fighting-type we got in Gen 4, why did they give all this attention to it and not, for example, to Toxicroak or Infernape? We might never know...
  9. Sorry but I must correct you there. A Pokemon that finds room in a low-tier team is a Pokemon that is GOOD in battle. Being good in the lower tiers is still being good: for example, Exploud is good in battle, and so are Camerupt and Garbodor, just to name some examples from your signature. But most Pikaclones (the Hoenn bunnies for example, or Pachirisu) aren't even that, they are just bad. At least Ame went out of her way to make Pachirisu surprisingly useful in Reborn, but in its original game? It just sucks, being overshadowed but virtually every other Electric-type. And sorry, but I am afraid Dedenne came out of the same mold.
  10. Uh, Star-kin, I must defend Game Freak here. Pandering of the core target demographic (because let's be honest, if you were there to play RBY and you are still here to play Gen 6, you ARE the "core target demographic") is a legitimate commercial strategy because, let's face it, the core target demographic is basically the group of people that brings the company the most money. So making a game specifically tailored to give the spotlight to the mons that have enjoyed the most popularity over the year (PokemonAmie to enjoy Eevee and Pikachu in all of her cute glory, Charizard and Mewtwo getting two distinct megas, Lucario being in the spotlight throughout the whole Mega Evolution side-quest etc) is a sound, economically safe strategy to guarantee a reasonable income in these times of crisis, and it has nothing to do with the whole "genwunners" diatribe. Remember, the bickering of the fanbase rarely has any effect on the actions of the executives, who think on a completely different scale. And besides, Gen 6 did offer something completely new in the form of Mega Evolution, although I myself dislike that. Now to get back on topic, I am definitely not sold on Pikaclones. I mean, I am not sold on Pikachu/Raichu itself, but the futile attempts Game Freak makes, in every single generation, to make an Electric-type rodent just as popular really get on my nerves... Because yeah, they are cute, but they are also atrociously weak from any possible point of view. Not a game goes by without other Electric-type mons completely overshadowing the regional mons (ironically, in Dedenne's case the Pokemon overshadowing it was PIKACHU ITSELF, because they had the brilliant idea of putting both in the same region). So yeah, can we PLEASE get an Electric-type rodent that has something more to offer than just the cute look? Like for example, oh I don't know, ACTUAL EFFECTIVENESS at least in the game, if not competitive-wise? This coming from a member of Project Seven, you should expect something out of it
  11. Who let a plague knight into Se7en?

      Never heard that one before. Only heard of the the shovel. HEE!!!

    3. BlueMoonIceCream

      BlueMoonIceCream

      I guess it's because spades are black on cards?

    4. BlueMoonIceCream

      BlueMoonIceCream

      That's also why I find it funny that Black knight has a spade instead of a shovel

  12. How comes so many people are saying that forums have been down? I have been able to access them just fine throughout the morning o.O

      Oh I see. Must have been while I was at uni then. I thought you guy were talking about some kind of attack like it happened in the past...

    3. zimvader42

      zimvader42

      Nah just offline the usual way. It still got in my way when writting a message, but it is always better than a forum attack.

    4. Raindrop Valkyrie

      Raindrop Valkyrie

      It was just maintenance yea. Nothing to worry aobut.

  13. I thought that too. Of course, Zim had to go and spill the beans like he always does.
  14. I would like to have an Electric/Grass Pokemon with an ability that boosts its strongest STAB moves, can we please have such a Pokemon in this project? Oh wait...

      How'd a Wob outspeed Skarmory though?

    3. Tomas Elliot

      Tomas Elliot

      I run speed investiments precisely to outspeed defensive Pokemon. With those ridiculous HPs, it's not like Wobb needs defenses anyway, also because investing in defenses reduces the damage output of Counter/Coat...

  16. Personally I am against making any sort of "Se7en-pedia" at all. If ALL of the project staffers agree that they want one we will make it, but only after the main story is complete. The reasons for this opposition of mine were explained throughly in a post a few pages back, I don't feel like repeating myself but feel free to dig that up
  17. WHY DOES EPISODE 48 OF FAIRY TAIL ALWAYS MAKE ME CRY?

      FT really does have its moments.

    3. Tomas Elliot

      Tomas Elliot

      Yeah, it does have a lot... But still, about 150 episodes later, I still find that one moment with Laxus to be the most moving. I cannot explain why, that's just how I feel I guess.

    4. Simon

      Simon

      The music was superb for that moment, I almost cried cuz of that.

  18. Eh, it's true it has many weaknesses... But its evolved form shall have an ace up its sleeve that will make it able to overcome such problems. Similarly to Volcarona, this is a Pokemon that offsets its defensive shortcomings with sheer offensive power... And the aforementioned ace up its sleeve, which I am not going to reveal
  19. I've grown up in a place where directing heavy insults at another guy's mother is considered a sign of affection and camaraderie. I don't really think I am the most qualified person to provide advice in regards to politically correct expressions...
  20. I spend more time re-reading my posts to fix spelling and grammar errors than I do actually writing the posts to begin with.

      I have the impression that's a common, relatable thing.

    2. Raindrop Valkyrie

      Raindrop Valkyrie

      Not for me... I don't give a daaaaaamn... okay I do but I rarely spend that much time on it lol.

  21. Since the new series seems to have gotten quite far, I have decided to have myself a full rerun of the entire show, starting all the way back with ep 1... Watched 3 episodes so far and I already have tears in my eyes for the laughter... Geez, how have I missed this...

      Whooops, didn't I write it? Fairy Tail...

  22. I absolutely and completely agree with this. I might in fact have made a similar comparison in an earlier post of mine. So I shall repeat my question: your post perfectly detailed the theory of what needs to be done, but what about the practice? When I asked if something concrete was coming out of this discussion, I didn't mean to ask "are mods actually going to add sub-sections?" because I kinda see that it would be a solution that would fail to address the main issue at hand. What I meant to ask is: what is it that we, as roleplayers of this community, need to do, here and now, to address the issue that you so throughly eviscerated? Hell what is it that we CAN do? If each of us started from what can be done and moved up from there, it would already be big progress.
  23. Not that I want to be the one who yells at the new guy, I mean he couldn't have possibly known on the account of being new, but... Can we please do something about all the Garchomp/Arceus/Abra threads? I mean those boss fights have been out there for quite some time, we have approximately 57493758 topics about them, could we just... I don't know, write a FAQ or whatever about them, sticky it, and be done with it?
