  1. http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-249567781 TFW you send out Gothitelle to discourage them from sending Tentacruel, and they actually send out Tentacruel...
  2. I think the name of the tier accurately describes what the game will routinely tell you as you face the big bosses. On the plus side, you get to use Meganium as your starter! I demand that you raise it with love and care and keep it in your party to the very end! Starters ftw! EDIT: Meganium - Whiscash - Magcargo - Ditto - Meowstic seems a pretty olid team if you ask me, and you also have other good subs in Huntail, Shedinja (which is broken in most games), Swanna, Gourgeist, Tropius, Slaking, and the elemental monkeys... It could have been much worse if you ask me!
  3. A small house? In Platinum you get to buy a friggin' VILLA. Also, if Pokemon has taught me anything, it's that creatures that like to abduct kids, devour memories, cause ships to sink and ALTER THE ENTIRE LANDSCAPE IN A RAMPAGE, as well as creator deities and horrific aliens, are ok to be kept as pets... And will act all tender and friendly if you feed them sweets!
  4. Dat Oshawott tho... Turtwig and Chikorita would have been better choices IMO, Turtwig because Torterra is suprisingly useful in Reborn, and Chikorita because lolMeganium <.<
  5. Persona 1 ! Almost finished at that
  6. So people, we have vectorial artworks ready for a Ghost-type and for a Normal-type Pokemon, which one do you want to see first? Asking so that we can prepare the announcement for later this week...
  7. As you might have realized right now, this place is kinda lacking in the sanity department, although I suppose that adds to the fun. Anyway, if you know what Pokemon Reborn (the fangame) is (and I suppose you do, otherwise why would you google "Pokemon Reborn" in the first place?), well, then you know what this forum is about: here you can find announcements concerning new releaes, download links for the latest version of the game, as well as many topics meant to help you make it through the game (which is... Notably harder than canon cames), including guides, viability rankings, strategies for beating specific bosses, and so on so forth. OR, if you need a pause from Ame's sadism frustrating battles GHOSTS AS GYM LEADERS Reborn, there are lots of other things the site has to offer, including a section dedicated to competitive Pokemon battling (we have a server on Showdown), a section dedicated to forum roleplaying and creative writing (you have a fanfiction to share? That's the place for you), and a section dedicated who Ame wannabes who started fangame projects of their own, including the shofu-breaking always popular Rejuvenation and a bunch of up and coming new projects that are still in development phase, including the one I just happen tobe advertising in my signature *innocent whistle* Well, this is all. If you need help with anything, there is also a section dedicated to troubleshooting, but before you post there make sure you use the search function: chances are other people already experienced your same problem in the past, and a topic about the solution you need already exists. Enjoy your stay!

    Well this isn't entirely true either. Hariyama for example can and will stay useful at least until the Ice gym, provided it has Thick Fat. In general, Reborn is a game that encourages you to try different strategies for different battles, so yeah, your best bet is probably to simply catch everything, and then train what looks like is going to be more helpful for the upcoming boss fight, then rinse and repeat for the next one. This forces a lot of grinding, yes, but hey, welcome to RPGs... The canon games of the Pokemon franchise have kinda forgotten about their RPG origins, going the extra mile to make sure grinding is a non-issue and you have the tools to just skip the game and go straight to the post-game online competitive scene, but Reborn is not like that... Reborn is, simply put, an old-fashioned RPG. So again, my suggestion is to catch as many Pokemon as humanly possible, then train the ones that you think will be useful, rotating your team a lot and trying different strategies.
  9. CARL STOP THROWING NIRVANA IN THE WAY OF MY COMBOS! Stringing combos together with friggin' Tsubaki is hard enough <.<

      I saw sisters and shields and puppets and am curious

      We are talking about a 2D fighting game, Blazblue, in which there is a character, Carl, whose sister was turned into a weaponized puppet by their dad, who then proceeded to do the same to Carl's mom. And that is actually one of the least screwed up aspects of the plot. Anyway, Carl's fighting style revolves in making good use of his weaponized sister, performing synchronized attacks with her... And throwing her in the way of your combos when you try to attack him (he takes no damage i...

      ...f you hit her)

  10. http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-249225080 This guy was haxed in a crucial moment and fell for Zoroark twice, and yet not only he did not rage and/or quit, he even said "gg" in the end (to which I didn't reply because Ignore Opponent ;-; ). Kudps to him, I wish there were more such examples of sportsmanship around...

      Well, what were you expecting him to do? if the hax would have been too critical he could have forfeited, but other than that, you stay in battle to the very end.

    2. Sparky

      Sparky

      That's a true battler imo. Regardless of the hax, keep going to the very end.

  11. My ace is mine. What's that face? I answered the question as it is worded in the title.
  12. Welp, we'll come up with something in the next couple of days. In the meantime... I dunno, is there anything in particular you'd like to help with?
  13. My problem with this topic is not that you are having these issues. My problem with this topic is that ALL OF US had these issues in the past and thus, for the sake of helping people like you, we posted all kinds of guides, viability rankings, topics with advices as to how to beat specific battles. They are literally all over the forum. If you had put the search engine to good use and taken the time to read those, instead of going straight away for the rant, this topic could have been avoided. And don't say "I don't read guides because I don't want to spoil myself" because said guide are specifically built to be spoiler-free: basically, they tell you "it is advisable to run this" or "you might want to prepare that before that point", but they don't actually reveal any major plot turn. So again, instead of lamenting the issues you are having, have a look at the MANY topics made specifically to help newcomers like you. It's funny because they are in the same section in which you posted this topic, so it stands to reason that you should have seen at least one of them before starting this...
  14. Bla bla bla there are tons of topics about these matters bla bla bla those "BS Pokemon" you speak about can be beaten with proper preparation bla bla bla if you don't like it don't play it bla bla bla I swear the first time I posted in a topic like this I made a rather intelligent, constructive post, but 9001 rants later I am kinda starting to feel nothing but boredom... Seriously, what were you actually hoping to accomplish when you decided to start a ranting topic? What possible reason could you have for wanting to publicly complain about specific battles everyone and their mother know how to beat? Why exposing yourself to the inevitable wave of sarcasm and snark this topic will turn into, your abilities ridiculed and your shortcomings made fun of, when you could have just kept the rant to yourself or, at most, made a status update about it? Did you actually think a rant post could lead the developers to go back on their work and make those battles easier?
  15. I want to go on record and publicly make my bet in regards to the two serpentine Pokemon leaked by Corocoro: IMO, they are gonna turn out to be Mega Zygarde X and Mega Zygarde Y. And judging by the overall design, I think it is safe to assume Xerneas and Yveltal will have to do with the unlocking of the mega evolution, which will not require a stone much like in Rayquaza's case. Basically it's B2/W2 all over again, only with mega evolution replacing "absofusion". If this turns...

      Considering it is already all over the place on the interwebs etc... This is hardly the first place I've seen it.

      Tomas Elliot

      I mean, the "B2/W2-like situation, except with mega evolution that does not need a stone" thing, which I am pretty sure I came up with... Or at least, I never saw it anywhere before posting this status ;-;

      I merely meant that said past experience has taught me how to build up to a climatic fight, calm down everyone <.<

      We still have a former wrestler as a major character, so calm down.

  17. I was so used to maining Hazama in BBCS EX, that I actually had never faced his unlimited form as the Arcade boss... I was used to facing Unlimited Ragna instead! Now I have tried playing Tsubaki's arcade and wow, Unlimited Hazama is MUCH weaker than Unlimited Ragna, I brought him down on first try without even dropping in the red area, and I was using friggin' Tsubaki for crying out loud o.o

  18. I returned home from my night out to find cops breaking a party in a small pub nearby... All the fun always happens when I am away.

      yea that story really was cool :)

  20. You know I like paying attention to dialects, speech patterns and stuff like that. It is one of the reasons Japanese (and its insane amount of different patterns, each with its own set of pronouns, suffixes and syntax to boot) fascinates me so much as a language, which in turn is why I make a point of only ever watching subbed anime. Even if I don't understand most of the words, just paying attention to the minor aspects that give away the pattern a character is using (and thus deducing what the writers are trying to tell us about the character's personality) is something I love to do.
  21. I have made progresses for Se7en, I have written a new competitive analysis, and I have learned how to Tsubaki... I dare say this was a profitable morning. Now for an afternoon of study...

      Dammit, now I've got a sudden urge to play some Blazblue, maybe attempt to learn to Hakumen. He's a simple character, but something just doesn't click with him. Got any tips for him?

      Hakumen is a character I cannot play to save my life. Never ever managed to learn him, and God knows if I would like to...
