Redo.

Hey Commander, it's too much to ask for the link of the lastest version of Hardcore?

Hey, I'm the only one who wants to talk again to Victoria and see how she's doing?

Thanks, I was out like, 3 or 4 months, but it's nice to be welcomed back (I'm sure that what I just wrote wasn't proper english, but I don't care lol). My last run (Also known as death and pain, as I suffer in Hardcore) is in my signature, also you can read "Let the RNG guide my actions: a Random Pokémon Generator run." if you want.

This one sounds interesting, shame that if no one edit my save file I would have to use 4th or 6th gen, which one is OP (4th gen with all those evolutions from previous generation's pokémon) and the other one being quite weak (Only like, 60 pokémon to use, and Fennekin comes just before Ciel with Lv15, that means that I have to EV grind and train 60 Lv a mediocre pokémon, not exactly worth it). But yeah, if you guys want it then I will do it. Actually, I started playing that save again (Since November 14th that I didn't touch it), and I'm not that far from Shade (Need to EV Magnemite, Porygon, Sniwub and Duskull and then grind everyone to Lv39), if I'm lucky I will update it today. Also guys, can someone give me the link to Hardcore 2.0, my version is 1.9 and I think Commander did update it.

Right now I'm playing grinding fest, or also known as the NFE Hardcore, yeah, it's pure grinding at this point, breeding, EV's and then wishing for winning the boss battles in less than 10 tries. For a Monogen, which generation would you like? Also, in normal Reborn or Hardcore?

Hey guys, do you remember me? Well, sorry for dissappearing, real life kicked in an after that I finally bought a 3DS (Pokémon OR, Smash 3DS and FE: Awakening destroyed all my free time left) anyways, I'm back and I still want to find the hardest way to beat Reborn or Hardcore. So yeah guys, here you can decide what do you want me to tackle next: Continue your NFE Hardcore suicidal, it is hard as hell but if you guys want me to continue it... Do your NFE stuff... on normal Reborn, so it's a bit easier and less or a grind festa. A Monogen or Monotype on Hardcore? A Nuzlocke on normal Reborn? Something else. So yeah guys, you tell me what you want and I fulfill your wishes... I hope.

Victoria's Emboar. Oh, and what I said of the the team was true, before the massive EV grinding it was BAAAAD, mostly my Special Sweepers because they didn't have more than 10 EV's on that stat. Now my team feels OP (I'm sure a 252 Atk Graveler is as strong as a Golem without EV grinding), so probably my team will pull it's weight until Noel or so when the EV's are not enough anymore.

Sorry guys, sorry this took so long, but an issue with the game (explained later), university and real life kicked in and... well, you know it. At this now updates should be faster. Replies: Okay, Pumpkaboo won and really, I didn't care, like, my team was so antiShelly anyways. _____________________________ UPDATE#4: SHELLY AND THE EV'S Caught: Gothita Ponyta Murkrow Drifloom Geodude VS Psychic Inuki: Before you guys ask WHY a normal trainer was listed here it's because I wiped to him... BECAUSE OF A DOWNLOAD PORYGON2 WITH A MOVEPOOL VERY POWERFUL FOR THIS TYPE OF TRAINER. Calling for a nerf. VS Aqua Gang Mannie and Razzie: I wiped with these too... But I admit it was my fault THIS time for going with a not optimal team. A fast team change (to a full anti-Water type team) and I won. VS Aster and Eclipse: Wiped the 1st time... YES MY TEAM IS UNDERLEVELED (LV30 TO LV32) AND I HAVE BAD POKEMON LIKE SEWADDLE BUT SUE ME. Also in the 2nd, okay once more and I go with a good team. Well, time to change my team. So I did, a full team change later and only 3 pokemon overall fainted (Herdier, Servine and Emboar)... my team is like 6 good pokemon and the rest are horrible. VS Oderly John: Also wiped against this guy once... Well, team swap again and the job was done. VS Victoria: Wiped in my 1st try... Aren't the trainers now over the damn level cap? That's not fair. So I did in my 2nd try... Fuck it I'm going to EV train now. Believe me when I say I took me 10 REAL LIFE HOURS to EV grind the 19 pokemon I have in rotation... Well, the 3rd try and I won by luck, Murkrow destroyed half of Victoria's pokemon with brave Bird but Emboar and Gallade where a pain, and at the end if Gllade's AI didn't derp and used Shadow Sneak I would have lost. VS Shelly: Okay, let's go, 1st try... I started with Stealth Rock with Onix, but the RNG decided to f*ck with me again and two "It hits itself with Confusion" didn't let me burn the forest. And THAT was the reason I lost :badloser: 2nd try... AND YES IT WAS THE FIRE WHAT I NEEDED, like, with the sh*t ton of damage the SR did and boosted Flame Charge/Flamethrower destroyed Shelly and proved my point that she's one of the easiest gyms... I would have easily destroyed her on my first try if the RNG didn't troll me (Like, she could only KO 1 of my pokemon). Probably fully EV'd pokemon is a bit cheap at this moment but I don't care, the NFE is challenge enough and if I can get some help somewhere, I'm going to take it. Team: _____________________________ Okay guys, now vote for Shade.

IDK if Ame wants to make Reborn the Hoenn 2.0: water routes simulator but all the Azurine Lake (if cleaned) or the Super Rod will give us access to Tentacool (yeah, Water types in Reborn are somewhat bad and the best one are nowhere to be seen).

Wow, you went a bit underleveled for Julia. Personally I would have gone with Totodile because it's the best starter of the 2nd Gen thanks to Sheer Power and both Cyndaquil and Chikorita events are earlier than Totodlie's. Also, 2nd Gen is not hard, it's a middle ground monogen (4th and 3rd being easy, 2nd and 5th being medium and 1st and 6th being hard), a lot of good pokémon will come later and fix a probably slow start.

>Implying the AI works >Implying you don't use entry hazards. Volcarona IS the best non-Mega bug hands down (Even better than Dennis Genesect), hell, it can even be on par with some Mega bugs too. If you don't use entry hazards it's the best candidate for Focus Sash, as it should go for Quiver Dance and then it has Fiery Dance to even boost more it's Special Attack, and that's Yanmega other weakness, it doesn't have any mean to boost itself, meaning special can sponge the damage. Yanmega needs to Life Orb, and for the Mega, well, Scizor is a good choice if you don't go for the easy Choice Band, or Pinsir is a good bet too.

If the AI doesn't work, then go for CM.

If you beat some diffiicult battles earlier than me, I'll be mad. Joke mate, good luck, and don't forget to catch Butterfree, Mothim and a Vespiquen, those three can easily become early game bosses.

Oh yeah, if you make exceptions on Shadow Ball I call the same treatment for Calm Mind. Before EP15 the last episode I played was EP10 and Radomus gave that gem. But in the RNG run I got the not so good Trick Room, Calm Mind is way better and give so much options for a lot of Special Sweepers.

I'm surprised you didn't comment on the BIG level curve between the double battle from Taka and ZEL and Corey, like, you jumping from Lv29 max to Lv31/32 min. Also, a quick fix is giving Illumise Rain Dance has it's only move, and then buff everything in her team (Probably even give her OP bug types) like an excuse for being a 5v6 battle.

With those base stats? And slow experience group? Good luck with that! But to be fair, it can somehow do something (If it isn't outspeed, because it has the bulk of a Carvanha) it gets Screech and Supersonic for confusion hax, and both Wing Attack and Bite provides decent neutral coverage... but after you get Noivern drop that ugly physhical et and go full special.

Being honest, after surviving the use of Noibat I don't care, at least Pumpkaboo is neutral (Not weak thanks to ghost), and I have to grind one anyways if I want the best movepool posible on Dusclops (Key member in Kiki's and Solaris' battle). Well. I don't know what to expect from Shelly, like, I can make a super anti-bug team right now with Onix for SR, Graveler for rock STAB, Growlithe for easy field swaping and Ponyta for Fire STAB... But knowing commander she will be a pain and take me 10+ tries and a lot of team swaping until I find the winning formula.

Replies: Well, at the end of the day both Falffy and Bunnelby got tied for the obligatory pokémon, normally I would let random.org decide, but this time I used both worst decision of this run. ________________________ UPDATE#3: COREY AND THE GRIND Caught: Mareep Growlithe Starly Sewaddle Pineco Aipom Bunnelby Hoothoot Phanpy VS Taka: In my 1st try... got destroyed by Lileep. On my 2nd try by PULSE Tangrowth. Also on my 3rd try... TIME TO CHANGE TEAM 4th try and again... THAT TANGROWTH. And 5th time is the charm again, thanks to Taka wasting the two Super Potions before that damn PULSE thing I could kill it after sacking all of my team with Luxio, who also killed the Chatot of doom (Pacham beated Lileep and Vanillite did the same with Gligar), at the end Klefki was beated by Leech Seed stall from Servine. VS Taka & ZEL: Guess who got destroyed on his 1st try? Also in his 2nd? I ragequit in my 3rd try after the RNG decided to give 2 Ancient Power boost to Lileep and Jolteon was also in +2. OKAY GUYS IF EVEN OVERLEVELD I GOT DESTROYED THEN IT'S MY TEAM WHO NEEDS SOME MEMBER SWAP. Nope, 5th try and tht still not not the answer. Not yet. After failing 7 times, I decided I will tell you once I win... I FINALLY beat them in my 11th try, my strategy was to first kill all of ZEL's pokemon and then focus on TAKA, and a duo of Flaffy+Klink Charge Beam + TWave + Electric Terrarin did the job. Here is a screenie of my team after the battle. VS Corey: I GOT SWEEPED BY FLIPPIN' QWILFISH IN MY 1ST TRY. ONLY. QWILFISH. ALSO COMMANDER WASN'T THE 'CAP' FOR THIS GYM LV30?! Yup Lv30 is impossible now I'll grind to Lv34 because fuck the level curve. (Also, I have to do this with no trainers). For my 3rd try I grinded everyone to Lv34 (Still legal by my ruleset)... and still failed horribly. Nope 4th chance and I still fail. And in the 5th... guess what guys, I'm going to tell you when I win. OKAY NOW I'M MAD, IN MY 7TH TRY IT WAS CROBAT IN 25% HP VS BUNNELSHIT, AND GUESS WHO DECIDED TO FLINCH WITH AIR SLASH, I WOULD HAVE WON, FUCK YOU COMMANDER, FUCK YOU GAME, I WON'T CENSORE THOSE FUCK AND DIE YOU ALL. (I'M REALLY ABOUT TO RAGEQUIT HERE). 10th try... Bunnelby is SOOO BAAAAAD. 12th try was SOOO CLOSE, like, 3v1 (Corey had Crobat has his only pokémon left, and I had Luxio, Drowzee and Bunnelshit), but after a Nasty Plot he easily 0HKO my three pokémon. I DID IT IN THE 13TH TRY, and all thanks to Vigoroth who was easily the MVP through all the battle, easily taking care of Scolipede, Nidoqueen and Skuntank most of the time (Thanks to Facade, Slack Off and Yawn). After that Drowzee did something right in winning the 1v1 against Swalot and finally Growlithe finished the job with Flame burst against Crobat. Bunnelshit was the only one left. Team: ________________________ Okay guys, now cast your voted for Shelly.

Oh God... the more I read this the more I'm scared when I face problems in early battles. Like, yes, the good catches for me will come... but most of them are in Agate and beyond so probably all this part will be a pain.

Overlord is awesome, different than OPM (Much more serious, and with less humor) but awesome. Also, I know, but try Dragon Ball Z for OP shonen characters.

Actually, those abilities doesn't work like that. When you walk the 128 steps the game makes like 2 Egg cycles happen and not one, but the step count should remain the same.

First congratz in your run, and Abra is not that hard mostly because of those lost turns with Hyper Beam, if you sack a pokémon then you can easily destroy it. So what do you say is the harder path? Sirius w/ Cain and then Sigmund or Sigmund w/ Cain and then vs Sirius alone? Also, about Noel, what is your idea? In my opinion Mega Audino is probably the worst normal mega, MKangaskhan is awesome but I'll probably go w/ MLopunny for type variety. Also, don't touch Clefable, it's Noel most famous pokémon because of Nomos and it wouldn't feel right without it, for the other pokémon Scarf/Specs Exploud, Band/Scarf Diggersbytho (Or SD w/ Quick Attack?) and troll Blissey (Toxic, Seismic Toss, Wish, Protect) could be good ideas.

tbh, good fighting types don't get much love from Ame, Medicham being one of the few who is good and virtually early. Machop and Timburr are preSamson (That means no Egg Moves for them), Riolu is preTerra, Chimchar and Torchic are not in game if you didn't choose them as starters, Breloom is locked to a 1/18 chance, Mienfoo is preSamson, Heracross is after Noel and Gallade after Aya, there, most of the good fighting types are after the 5th gym badge. Also, while it makes Shade a bit of a joke, it's not that OP, Fairy types laugh at Scrafty... This is not any kind of rant or anything. Also, don't compare a wall like Pelipper with a pokémon whose bulk is on par with Sharpedo's, Staravia only works in this run to breed Brave Bird (I would have loved to get a Fraxure and breed Dragon Dance instead).
