  1. Erm should this sub-forum be visible for non-members too? I haven't checked these forums in a few months so I spent the last 30 minutes panicking after I couldn't find any sign of Rejuvenation. I was about to login and make a thread when this sub-forum reappeared much to my relief.

  2. Really? Where'd you first see my game at, since my game has been posted on 2 other forum websites. The game is still being worked on, and probably won't have a release for another couple of months. I've been focusing on the custom programming and anime animations for the game, before anything gets released.

    The game will be released as one whole game, for the sake of convenience and consistency; also because my game's narrative doesn't cater to an episodic structure.

    I first found it in at pokecommunity iirc, gave it a quick once over, liked somewhat it and left. Then I heard you were interviewing Amethyst so I watched both those videos. Went digging around in your past videos and got interested further, subscribed so I could learn about its release date.

    Since it won't be following the conventional pokemon formula in terms of story (I vaguely recall hearing this in your above interview), how long do you think the game will be?

  3. Yep in Sheridan Village - but it's pretty complicated... (I would like to know details myself)

    IIRC, the move teacher isn't there initially - but her sister is there instead. I think her sister can re-teach moves in the meantime. You'll come across the actual move teacher in one of the quests in Kristilline Town. And even after rescuing her, she won't be able to help your Pokemon relearn moves at certain times of the day because she's busy teaching classes or something.

    Thanks for the info.

    I heard via searching the forum that there was a dusk stone near Odd Tower, I can't find it on the map, any idea where Odd Tower is?

  4. First time it happened when you have a Gyarados?

    So I'm assuming you didn't use the Gyarados in any of the other gyms? xD

    Gyarados wasn't a part of my team until really late, around ep 13 or so.

    I started playing the game at around ep 7 so I was able to get magikarp easily before the changes. But I just let it sit in the box doing nothing while playing with whichever mons I liked, which made the game a lot harder.

    Then I heard how powerful Gyarados was and decided to level it up and try it out. It was a strong team member but never a complete butcher (mostly due to my mishandling). Usually the opponent would have something capable of taking it down, be it speed or electric or field enhanced attacks.

    This was the first time for me the Gyarados destroyed a gym leader. Didn't even give Ciel a chance to use a hyper potion. Gyarados took no damage whatsoever.

  5. I just beat Ciel on my first try. First time I ever beat a gym leader without trouble. Literally the easiest gym battle I've had in the game. Everything went right and I just swept her team. Or nearly everything, things weren't going well after her first mon Togekiss easily beat my first two mons. I can finally see why gyarados was made a mid game pokemon that you have jumps hoops to get.

    First the Togekiss switches out, letting me get a dragon dance off. Then the slaughter began, through the use of STAB Waterfall and Ice Fang I destroyed her. It only got worse with Moxie. Literally one shot everything. At the end the destroyer was sitting on +2 speed and +6 attack. It was surreal, I felt vaguely insulted by the lack of challenge after the epic showdown with Team Meteor.

  6. Just defeated Madelis and her bloody Shadow Mewtwo after nearly two hours of trying. Just seeing her freak out afterwards made it completely worth it. Wiped that smug expression off her face. Shame it didn't alter the events after or more of the dialogue.

    Where do you get the itemfinder by the way? Just got the 2nd badge.

  7. I'm a stuck atm. I don't know how to get rock smash. I just beat Venam and the runaway kid said that a gang in Gearen has it. So I go to the place and the gang's leader, a woman with orange hair simply tells me to get stronger. I don't what to do, all my mons are lvl 19 or 20.

  8. 75.

    If you got Calm Mind from Radomus, when you would find Calm Mind later, you will find Trick Room in that place instead.

    Oh wow, thats an ingenious solution.

    Has it been released yet? I notice there isn't listing for Calm Mind in the items guide. So I'm guessing its coming in a future update.

    Anyway, its a relief to know this has been thought through. I don't mind the wait.

  9. Not currently, sorry. And he gave out Psychic instead..? I recall him originally giving out Calm Mind originally and now Trick Room.

    Ooops I competely misremembered. Yeah I got Calm Mind instead of Psychic.

    ^ Affirming that. Accordingly when Calm Mind is normally obtainable it will give Trick Room to players who have it instead.

    So theres no way of getting trick room for older players? I'm having trouble parsing this sorry, what are you affirming? Who gives Trick Room?

    Btw: whats the highest level cap of the latest update?

  10. Hi, I heard you can get Trick Room after beating Radomus. Unfortunately, in my playthrough I beat Radomus before Trick Room was put in the game and got Psychic instead.

    Is there any way to obtain Trick Room? I don't want to start a new save just yet.

  11. Hello, I'd like to ask for improvements and advice regarding my reborn team. I'm sure there are lots of problems since I'm not a competitive battler. I don't EV train at all... I've been playing the game for a year and been having a blast though its been super tough at times. Then I thought I might as well ask all the pros here for tips and advice. I haven't been paying too much thought to composition, just having fun with whatever comes along.

    My current team:

    1. Arcanine lvl 67 Intimidate HP206 A185 D138 SA167 SD126 S152

    Flamethrower

    Bite

    Strength

    Thunder Fang

    Comments: Yeah not the best move pool, I used to have strength and rock smash. Some advice on better moves would be appreciated. Thinking of bringing roar back, saw some hilarious stuff in one of Nickaboo's old videos with roar and stealth rocks. Unsure if I should remove strength since it is base 80 and attack is the best stat.

    2. Infernape Iron Fist lvl 70 HP199 A187 D135 SA170 SD122 S182

    Close Combat

    Acrobatics

    Grass Knot

    Flare Blitz

    Comments: My powerhouse, saved me many times. Grass Knot may be questionable but it did come in handy in the recent episode against Terra. Oh dear, just noticed his ability right now, thats negligent of me. Which moves would best suit it? Any room for improvement?

    3. Gyarados Moxie lvl 61 HP208 A155 D157 SA101 SD144 S110

    Waterfall

    Dragon Dance

    Ice Fang

    Bite

    Comments: recent addition, decided to finally take advantage of starting the game back in ep 8. Did not quite finish training him but he performed quite well.

    4. Scrafty Intimidate lvl 68 HP 173 A154 D196 SA99 SD179 S109

    Brick Break

    Hi Jump Kick

    Crunch

    Facade

    Comments: another powerhouse, been delivering since I got it. HJK is rarely used and could be replaced but the situations where it is used are desperate, still on the fence with it. I don't use facade at all but it seems like it could be handy. The tank of the team.

    5. Lumineon Swift Swim lvl 71 HP196 A113 D143 SA132 SD131 S167

    Bounce

    Surf

    Rain Dance

    Silver Wind

    Comments: This guy has saved from so many tight spots and close fights. Originally got it while desperately searching for a way to negate Serra's hail after the 30th loss (arguably my worst fight). Rain dance was a good substitute for sunny day and allowed me to finally win. Then Bounce unexpectedly saved me while fighting Samson. I was not expecting this guy to be the highest level mon in the team. I don't use Silver Wind much though and I haven't used rain dance a lot recently.

    6. Flygon Levitate lvl 68 HP203 A184 D117 SA132 SD136 S155

    Dragon Claw

    Dig

    Dragon Tail

    Crunch

    Comments: A result of my addiction to the coin flip tables. Came on board a couple of eps ago, has performed well.

    7. Alakazam lvl 66 Synchronize HP157 A103 D75 SA196 SD127 S177

    Psychic

    Future Sight

    Shadow Ball

    Recover

    Comments: Spends most of the time on the bench since he get XP so fast due to being traded. Only bring him out for important fights. He's a glass cannon. Considering something bulkier like a Gardevoir.

    8. Pachirisu Pick Up lvl 58 HP146 A85 D98 SA71 SD118 S136

    Discharge

    Charm

    Super Fang

    Thunder Wave

    Comments: This little guy has been with me virtually the start and played a pivotal role early to mid game with Charm and TW (such as Kiki). Though he has been outpaced in the newest episodes. Still need to level him up for his faithful service.

    9. Beartic Swift Swim lvl 69 HP219 A158 D118 SA119 SD116 S87

    Icicle Crash

    Rest

    Blizzard

    Hail

    Comments: Just caught him very recently for Terra, haven't changed the moves at all. Is he a worthwhile mon and what moves should I get?

    I've been looking around and caught a bunch of possible new pokemon to add (please suggest which should have priority to train):

    Sealeo (Walrein)

    Boldore

    Noibat (Noivern)

    Pawniard (Bisharp)

    Snorunt (Glailie)

    Ralts

    Haunter (Gengar when I get another linkstone)

    Staraptor

    Druddigon

    Luxray (still have a ton of coins left over from the addiction, could easily buy everything in the game corner)

    Furfrou

    Parasect

    Mienfoo (Mienshao)

    Golbat (hopefully Crobat if I can figure out happiness, which I think is winning lots of battles without fainting)

    Gligar

    Mareep (Ampharos)

    Which pokemon do you think I should catch and train? Which pokemon should I replace? Which moves should be replaced and with what? (I alway enjoy reading reasoning) What level should I train up to? Items? I'm always paranoid of level cap and fake "gym battles" so leave them underleveled just in case. This does come back to bite me though.

  12. Teleport as of now have not been a reliably safe thing to do so refrain from using it in the future til stated otherwise. Usually it would cause bugs that cannot be fix in game, but in your case, it can be easily fix if you go back to Calcenon then go south to the building connecting the city to the bridge that got destroyed earlier and talk to the policeman inside :D, this would also work for the OP as it is the same issue.

    Thank you so much!

    I didn't realise the dialogue for the southern guard had changed after the gym battle. Would have probably started over from the back up save if it weren't for your advice. Saved me a lot of trouble. Though I had to pay 40k to repair the road (not much of an issue for me who hoards cash like a miser) but if someone had less than 40k they'd be in trouble and need help.

    Will definitely stop using teleport now. Didn't know it caused issues, been using it consistently since Ep 9 when I first started playing. Hope it didn't cause any permanent bugs *shudders* haven't noticed any in my save until now.

    Once again, thanks for the help.

  13. Found out about the new episode about a week ago. Beat Samson a few days ago after an epic battle. Most of my mons were around lvl 60-62, but my lvl 48 Pachirisu utterly wreaked Hardy's team totally by accident, hence the avatar (via two crucial thunder waves and one hilariously unlucky switch out). Then the most unexpected mon on my team nearly swept half of his team. My unremarkable lvl 60 Lumineon which I'd kept for some slapdash water coverage from Cal and some bug coverage against Radomus, gave an unbelievably good showing via bounce (plus the arena's field effect, I'm still curious why acrobatics wasn't affected it). In the end Lumineon emerged as the highest level mon in my whole team (around lvl 63). Still it was a tough fight, it took around 5 attempts and my team was on all red. The first few times were brute force attacks with the main team to scout out what he had, then I decided to try out Pachirisu (which has earned some grateful grinding) and learned about bounce.

    Just want to ask a few questions:

    - Did Samson's badge actually raise the level cap? Because when I was reading the post battle script it mentioned nothing about it. So is the cap still lvl70? or did it go up to 75?

    - What are the prizes for the circus games? I've already got the clefairy and Dive.

    Also, that puzzle on Route 2 was mind-bogglingly complex. My hat off to Amethyst for crafting it. Even when I learned of the Crustle mechanism it took quite a while. I accidentally picked the north puzzle first and you couldn't believe how annoyed I was when it led to a dead end. This episode was a little short but it was highly entertaining.

  14. I'm kinda lost atm. I just reached 7th street and I don't know where to go. I've done the new Gang sidequest about Craudberry and battled the magma members and leader again. I'm not sure what to do next. I know I saw a dude who said he saw someone headed to the scrapyards. I don't know where that is...

  15. Hi, I picked up Reborn in ep 10 and this is my first time updating. I want to ask how to update to ep 11. I haven't found the answer in the FAQ so I'm asking here.

    I originally thought updating up to ep 11 involved downloading a separate file only containing ep 11 (I vaguely remember a Nickaboo video describing this) yet when I follow the downoad link it goes straight to the game page which has only has a link for the main game containig ep 1-11. So do I have to download the whole game again and then move my save file into it?

    I just noticed Reborn being updated a couple of days back so forgive me for being a slowpoke. Looks like I'll have to grind up my Flygon which I forgot to do *sigh*.

  16. He beat me a few times until I improvised. I caught a lvl 52 Paras, evolved it next level and taught it spore using a heart scale. That made Radomus much easier. Put 3-4 of his pokes to sleep and then killed them by spamming dark moves. Still, that gossip gardevoir could have steamrolled my whole team anyway. She did that the first time, 2nd time the AI stuffed up. Instead of using hidden power (fighting) to kill my scrafty she used 3 calm minds and a wish. All the while my scrafty was SE'ing it with dark moves and killed her. I felt kinda disapointed tbh.

    Thats Radomus and El in the banner of the forum isn't it? I wonder if theres a story behind that scene...
