Redo.

Rotation is not a problem when you can easily maintain 18 with some shitty 'mons like Butterfree, and I got 'em all to Lv75! Still the NFE challenge got that problem of not cutting through the mid-late of the game anymore (Except a few expections. like Rhydon or Electabuzz, that are awesome), add the problem that GameFreak love to throw Lv1 move to all fully evolved pokémon that the NFE would love to have and call it a day. Yup, perfect challenge, tons of fun, now is the link you gave me the updated version up to Shade? If so I'll start this in a moment.

Look on youtube, there probably are a lot of guides there on how to beat the chess puzzle.

Hey, is that the updated version up to Shade? Thanks! And while yes, a few low tier pokémon are way too good, the lowest tier may not be good enough in the late part of the game, most of them lack the base stats to do so (Like Butterfree in this run, yeah, he was very useful, but in the postAgate he was just not fast enough sometimes, lacked the raw power he needed without Quiver Dance and died from a lot of things). So yeah, this are the only things I'm interested in doing right now: POTW, we make a poll on what pokémon you want to be covered, and I do a full review of it, with when it's availeable, movepool, it's usefulness against the important battles and other options. Hardcore mono Bug, a lot of derpy options, all the fun of it. Hardcore flippin' NOT FULLY EVOLVED (NFE), I don't know if this is even possible, I have to ask Commander about this, but it's going to be a lot of fun and death.

Okay, but you can't expect me to know all christmas song in ENGLISH when I don't even speak the language... Hell, I don't even know them in my own language... Also, do people still sing that? Like, Christmas is all about alcohol, good food, family and tons of gift. Well, I'll wait for Hardcore 1.8 before starting my next run, but please help me to decide what the hell I'll do with it... Guys, why not a NFE challenge or a PU/FU challenge by the current smogon tiers... when your best pokémon is Electabuzz or Fraxure you're in a bad spot.

>Googles Patridge >It's a bird >A bird in a tree >Probably a deep phrase about you should be where you belong >But because it doesn't make sence in Spanish, I don't understand Ok guys, for now it's a 18 pokémon run on hardcore, now will it be in TCU fashion or in Random Pokémon Generator. In b4 you guys make me go 1v6 for a long time with Chikorita.

Well, for now I'll go with Omega Ruby, and later I'll see if Z is an upgrade of XY (Like Yellow, Crystal, Emerald or Platinum) or a sequel (Like Black 2/White 2). Also, I know I should ask in gaming in general but I don't want to open another post, so... Tell me 1 or 2 games (At most) that are must own for the console, I was thinking in Smash Bros and Fire Emblem Awakening, but maybe there are better gems I'm missing.

If my calcs aren't wrong, if I go with a good 3DS model (I can go with a 2DS and get more games) I can afford at most 2/3 games (Probably 4 if I choose a 2DS). Also, I want another games like Monster Hunter, Smash and Fire Emblem in my collection, so 1 pokémon game for now is enough (And in the future, when the price drop and I have money again, I can buy the other game, like I did with Platinum, I bought it at the same time I bought W2 becaue it was very cheap by then). So yeah, I know the original Ruby & Emerald (Never played Sapphire tbh) very well thank to a lot of playthrough, but with a future Z I have my doubts (Also, XY metagame is dead).

Long story short, I'm going to buy my first 3DS (Hopefully, a New 3DS XL) in mid november, but with my current economical status I can only afford 1 pokémon game (Because I want other games too). So my question is, which pokémon game should I buy, and before you ask, my last pokémon game is Pokémon Conquest Pokémon White 2. Pokémon Y, Yvetaal is awesome and you should experience Kalos at least once. Pokémon Omega Ruby, because the new megas are cool and it's the current version of the Metagame, and Pokémon Z will be out next year.

F*CK YOU CHUBB, YOU BEAT ME WITH MY IDEA!!! Yes, actually the weakness run would become a grinding fest, probably not so bad thanks to the trainers in the Grand Hall, but still bad. Also, while Solaris is hard, it's not THAT difficult, considering my pokémon up to that point are: Spinarak, Combee, Pineco, Caterpie, Ledyba, Wurmple, Burmy, Kricketot, Surskit, Venonat, Beedrill, Scatterbug, Sewaddle, Paras, Larvesta, Shuckle. This include 5 Sticky Web users, and a lot of Set Up Sweepers (Swords Dance or Quiver Dance), obviously he will make a huge dent to my team, but if I can set up thanks to EV grinding, Sticky Web and sleep moves the chance is there. The POTW idea is cool, if people want it, I can easily work on it (And probably would take less time to do than a full run). Thanks, Lilligant was a true sis, and pulled the team more than expected. This is another option, but I have to ideas for it: Let the RNG decide again, but this time I'll abuse so I don't have deathweights like Sigilyph, Sharpedo or Beartic. That TCU idea but in Hardcore, you choose 18 things (Obviously I'll filter some so my team is not Unown and Combee male), but still a hard one. So guys, a Hardcore run (18 pokes or Mono Bug), or a POTW thing.

Replies: ________________________________ UPDATE#16: NEVER GONNA GIVE YOU UP Please click here for this run theme. Joke here is the true theme. Okay guys, Froslass is up to par with the rest of the team so I decided to do a Hall of Fame or something like that, thank for reading my run and stay with me for the end of this post when I'll talk about my new project. Blaziken Butterfree Ursaring Sudowoodo Lilligant Ampharos Ambipom Arcanine Sharpedo Beartic Crobat Marowak Gardevoir Dragalge Altaria Metagross Sigilyph Froslass The illegal box Main team for EP16: TRIVIA: And this is all folks, it was a pleasure writing this for all of you and I will revive this post once EP16 is out (So in 6 month I guess by reading the Development forum), but for now YOU can vote my next project. A Pokémon Reborn Hardcore Monotype Bug, Bug is my favorite typing, and with a lot of derpmons it will be quite the challenge. A normal Pokémon Reborn weakness run, so I can only use pokémon that have weakness against the main type of the gym. Clearly one of the hardest things you can do in the game (For example, vs Julia I can only use Pokémon that are weak to Electric, and for Rini pokémon that are weak to Grass. Also for added challenge I can’t cheat with the abilities, so I can’t use a Levitate Bronzong against Terra, or a Heatproof one against Charlotte). No run in this one, but the current guide is incomplete and outdated, so pull all my time in making a new one. While a lot of us know how to play the game, it will help new people to have a full guide. Also, I can give a strategy view to the gyms so it's easier for those who use it. Another type of run, you can reccomend me something! DON'T. DO. ANYTHING. Your stuff is boring. Doing this took me a while, I'm not going to do this again.

6th Gen pokemon started in EP10.5 if I'm not mistaken (Some of them had the wrong typing back in the day and some abilitie didn't work). If you want to start in an early epiode, EP9 i your best bet, with few glitches and few axed pokémon (Very early Ralts, Togepi and Magby for example).

IMO I recently used a physhical Crobat (Acrobatics, Cross Poison, Confuse Ray, Rain Dance/Sunny Day) and it worked very well. Your team is very physhical oriented, but if you don't mind that Azumarril is one of the best Water type in the game, or Sheer Force Feraligatr with Dragon Dance can destroy everything too. Aggron is just OK, not gamebreaking, but does the job with the correct set, if you want a Steel type that's more reliable Durant, Metagross and Escavalier are better options. Gourgeist need another ability (Pick Up can help you get cool items, and Frisk can help you against some stuff trollAme may have prepared). I can't say much more, probably your team lack a good Fighting type (Lucario? Medicham? Gallade?), but not much more.

Best way to get one is on the Candy Shop in Obsidia Ward. First get a normal chocolate Ice Cream. Talk to the kid that wants it, and give it to him. Then buy the Vanilla Ice Cream for 1000: Go out and enter the shop again, now the Vanilla Ice Cream is 300, spam buy them until you get a free Blue Moon (About 1% chance), but it's faster and probably cheaper than the Ice Cream vendor.

Ninetales bulk is non-existant... at least this late in the game, going for Timid/Modest and Speed IV's is the better choice. Sturdy (Or Rock Head if you plan on breeding Head Smash) is more useful in Aggron than Heavy Metal, maybe going with Head Smash, Iron Head, Earthquake and Automotize/Rock Polish do wonders. Obviously Adamant and full Speed & Attack. I don't like recoil moves in game, and Acrobatics do virtually about the same damage, so maybe that's an option for Crobat. For Kingdra you got two great options: Offensive Dragon Dance, with Waterfall and Outrage (Breeding with Axew). Last move is up to you. Sniper abuse, give it a Scope Lens and Focus Energy, and all attack will Critical Hit. So now your DPulse (Best option while we wait for Draco Meteor) and Surf will kill everything).

Replies: ________________________ UPDATE#15: EARLY GAME MVP SAVED MY ASS So now I have to go back and save Amaria and Titania. Down the Waterfall I go... Oh hi Victoria, I haven't see you since EP7 more or less. And Titania, famished and all, proves to be someone you don't want to be on her bad side by killing in cold blood some Meteors. Also, explain me again by do you only have yor Aegislash with you... Well, I'm going to talk breafly about the Water Treatment Center... I HATE IT, like gosh, how I was suppoused to know where that Swalot, it was way too hidden for me to see it, add that this place is a lot of trial and error and you will never want to be back here. At least I got the Blue Moon Ice Cream scene from Titania, which was worth it. Also for PULSE Swalot... Metagross killed it, plain and simple. blablabla plot and beat Taka because he doesn't deserve the Meteor's shit, and he is a cool guy. And for the mansion raid... Believe me, I wiped at the scumbag double battle (Fern + Blake) once because they both double teamed me and Flobot didn't do anything with her Hippowdon, but beat them in my second try... Solaris and the Oderly felt way easier, no problem at all. May we kill Fern after the Flobot scene, like he doesn't deserve to be alive at all. And the final gym leader Seel, I beat a lot of wild ones like Julia told me until one gave me the badge Ciel... okay, I got cooky with type advantages and though this gym was a joke, a joke so big that my 6th member was Butterfree because Vinny and I concluded that it was the maximum disrepect for Ciel. Metagross started killing Togekiss, Noivern and Archeops, but died in hands of Gliscor. Gliscor was destroyed by Beartic, but he was killed in the hands of Talonflame. And here a bunch of bad missplay if my part (Kept forgetting that Mega Altaria is fairy) finished my Ampharos (Damaged by Talonflame), Sudowoodo and Crobat, so it was basically Mega Altaria (With full health) vs shitty Butterfree, for me I was done, but the early game MVP did the same strategy that the early game taught him, Sleep Powder and then sweep, a Quiver Dance was enough to kill the dragon and bring me the glory! Team: What to expect in the next update: Special last update. The wait for EP16.

Replies: ________________________ UPDATE#14: STUP1D HAX0R Now let's go to Ametrine City! PULSE Avalugg, here is Altaria, who knows Perish Song and now you're dead. I hate most of the puzzle, but the ice one are the worst. ZEL backstory was actually quite interesting also like Adrienn I though it was a girl. Meet one of the most hated guys in Reborn, Blake, and I don't understand the hate, yes, he is an scumbag who wouldn't care more if all the city starved to death, but he isn't like, insufferable. About the battle against him... the duo of Speed Booster Blaziken & Sharpedo destroyed him. Also I got the last sticker I can get. Mewtwo was way harder than my initial plan, I though a simple Perish Song was his doom, but no that bitch could 0HKO my bulkier pokemon like it was nothing (Altaria), luckily he didn't destroy Lilligant in one hit and Sleep Powder + Quiver Dance strategy proved victorious again. Finally Terra, who was close to being Noel 2.0... but Lilligant only KO 5 of her pokémon and failed to do so with Garchomp, but well, Perish Song is a thing and Garchomp was destroyed too. Team: What to expect in the next update: ??? Ciel. ________________________ TRIVIA: Only 2 updates left

Replies; ________________________ UPDATE#13: BURN ME BABY ONE MORE TIME I think most of the people aren't old enough to guess where the tittle comes from. So... let's go back all the way to Amaria and Titania's home At least the Crustle puzzle is still there. I got Surf, and I told her I read her diary. Also, I told Amaria the truth, she need to grow as a person and not live in a emo/suicidal way... also I want to see the world burn. Okay guys, I'm pretty sure Titania will stab me in the future with her Aegislash. I WON'T DO ANOTHER CRUSTLE PUZZLE, so I went through Celestine Cave. Found our friends and that Heather will probably starve to death... I don't really care about her. blablabla Route 2. Okay this battle with Aster and Eclipse was HARD, mostly because Aya is bad and very underleveled... also that Eclipse death was a bit overkill. Yup Charlotte, I love you and you're more important than the ring. If it was Bennett, Fern or Heather I wouldn't care less for the lions, but I want you to be safe. Also I caught a Snorunt... but because I forgot to get the Dawn Stone it goes to the Retirement box for a while. And Charlotte... ngl, I actually though her field was Burning and not Super Heated... anyways while she managed to kill 4 of my pokémon I destroyed her in my first try, so it wasn't very bad. Names: Team: What to expect in the next update: ??? M3G4 T3RR4. ________________________ TRIVIA: Yeah, I forgot that the only Dawn Stone is with Mr. Bigglesworth and I can't go back to fight him, so if nobody want to hack me one in, Froslass won't be used until we are back in Reborn City (EP16)... And while it would have helped against Terra and Ciel, it can still show is worth again Sapphira.

Replies: ________________________ UPDATE#12: AT LEAST IT WAS FUNNY ​Yay Agate Circus! That means no way to ge back to Reborn City for now. Got that Dive HM, when I'm gonna use it, I don't know. Also, the little kid sticker quest was pure gold. I found Aya, so now is time to find Hardy. Best quote in all the game, hands down. No really, I can't understand why Cain hated Aya some episodes before, those two are a joy to watch. Also I want to marry tease Ciel too. M3G4 T3RR4 is awesome, I don't understand the hate and she tease Ciel too. Found Hardy is Amaria's/Titania's house, or mansion, or whatever... Here we see a way happier Amaria and Titania is awesome too. So I beat to crap out of the shard's clown, now all my team is Lv67 and I got a shards stock for a lifetime. Some movepool where revamped thanks to the tutors. And finally Samson... if Dragon116 wanted it to be done in one single step here is how: Crobat use Acrobatics, it destroy everything. Team: What to expect in the next update: ??? Finally I can catch a Snorunt and have the full roster. Charlotte. ________________________ TRIVIA: I guess I will play Reborn Hardcore after this because... I want some kind of challenge. Finally all my pokémon toke part in at least one gym battle! Also guys, what do you recommend for my awesome Nasty Plot Technician Ambipom, Water Pulse or Hidden Power [ice]?

Okay guys, got it on my own, and I will never farm Honey again in my life. ________________________ UPDATE#11: LUNA=NOEL Yay Luna was abducted in the darkness more babysitting missions. 7th Street = Psychologist = I maximized most of my pokémon natures. Also I got both Sunny Day & Rain Dance. Both of the cult puzzle are bullsh*t. Saved the little girl, like a boss. Iola Valley puzzle is bullsh*t. After hours in the Adventurine Woods I got the Tech Glasses, that means I fixed all my pokémon EV's, bellow is a chart of how many berries I bought. Also I grinded everyone to level 64. Dragon116 told me 3 steps was too much for Sislligant, go Broziken did it in two: Blaziken used Bulk Up. Blaziken sweeps through Luna with Hi Jump Kick and Blaze Kick. Really Ame, nerfing the gyms make this too easy, since Serra I don't have any kind of challenge and Serra was hard because my team couldn't break her field. Team: What to expect in the next update: ??? Samson. ________________________ TRIVIA: SO MUCH GRINDING AND SOFTRESETING. First time I used Wishy Washy and Fool in a gym even if they didn't do anything.

The Good Rod is in Spinel Town, the place where the next gym leader is.

Growlithe isn't gender locked, you can get a Male one, if that is the case, you have to wait until Ditto (Before Kiki if you dn't forget about the event, after Radomus if you forget).

Team Flame and that Bellsprout does that... but better

For the Move Tutor, you have to find the key for her house. The key is in the second part of the Railnet (The part you gain access after the Yureyu Building), if you look closely you will see parts of the wall that are cracked, you can use Rock Smash there and small room will be opened, one of them contain the key. And the house is in the Onyx Ward, a few steps left from the Casino. If you want a Water/Flying, Swanna is faster and stronger than Pelipper, or you can fish (with the Good Rod, that is in Spinel Town) Mantyke, and mantine is a wall. Also, for Aggron, it is way bulkier than Muk and Donphan, and go with Sturdy so it can tank one hit anyway.

Drop Donphan for Golem, or if you wait a bit more for Hippowdon, trust me in this one. I don't know if Muk can still work at this point of the game, but you can always swap it for Crobat. Swap Meowstic for Gardevoir, right now. And for the last spot you need a Water Type, go with Omanyte and HAIL HELIX! (Ok no, go with Omanyte because Shell Smash destroy everything, and Sturdy may save your ass). Also, did you beat Garchomp?

Humm Chubb, two things: AWD is twice. You could have put in a spoiler how each team is formed. So I will do point 2 for you (edit your post later if you want): AWD Meanies Skull Charm Tasty A.C.T. Shifty Constrictor Hydro Rumblerock Fakers Raider Razor Wind Glee Seedgey Ebony Poochy Slacker Flame Frontier Rogue Go-Getters Poképals Ginji's Rescue Team Blaze Also, Team Rumblerock is the best one by far.
