  1. So Talonflame can be obtained legitimately now. Ha. That's adorable. Like I need your flame birb now...

    1. Dreamblitz

      Gale wings more like Fail Wings now right?

      tbh even old Talonflame would probably be fine at this point, though I'm guessing he won't even be that late in E17.

      Talonflame never should've been this late, even before Gale Wings got nerfed. It's strong as heck after it gets any moves but before that it is absolute garbage.

    3. Dreamblitz

      Dreamblitz

      I guess anywhere post-samson would've been fine for old talonflame.

  2. I might restart my bird-themed run once gen VII content gets implemented and I get to have a Decidueye on my team. Because, Decidueye, man. You literally cannot go wrong with birbs and ghosts. I love both those things!

      Oh, and Oricorio. It probably won't last for THAT long in Reborn, but I still want one...

       

      Oh oh, and Toucannon, too. Because it's literally an angry toucan that burns you with its beak.

       

      Gen VII has some great pokes.

      Imagine a full birb team with no flying types.

    3. Wolfox

      Wolfox

      Owl the Bowtie would be happy

  3. Well that was a long hiatus, but I'm back and recharged and ready for more pokerminz. I take it the new Sandbox mod has made the Request-a-Mon thread obsolete? Cuz I might just scrap my canine-themed run and start a new one, based on the object-themed Pokemon that everyone hates.

      Sounds interesting. Trubbish, Klink and Vanillite would be some good ones from the start of the game, and if you wanted something strong as an "Ace" to start with that could be a good excuse to use honedge.

      Happy Birthday by the way!

      Thanks! I'm totally down for using Vanilluxe. It's one of the prime examples people go to as proof that Game Freak is running out of design ideas, but it's an awesome Ice-type. I might not use Honedge for this run, actually. I'm already using one (illegally) for my Ghost monotype, and I think people actually like Honedge -- there are worse objects to look like than swords.

       

      I'm just determined to make Garbodor a competent battler.

  4. I'd thought that ep 16 would mostly be a sidequest-y update with far less hate and pain than I'm used to in Reborn. How foolish I was. This dungeon is murder.

  5. How specifically are you having trouble? Besides Blaziken, your team seems like it should be okay, but I'll see what I can do anyway. Psychic-types in general tend to have high special defense but low physical defense, so moves like Mamoswine's Earthquake and Crawdaunt's Crab Hammer should do good damage, especially after Swords Dance. Gallade with Close Combat should be KO'd ASAP. I suggest leading with Drapion and Eelektross and having them both gang up on Gallade with Crunch. Eelektross can use Thunder Wave then afterwards support Drapion in attacking. It's also possible to lead with Garde
  6. I'm so used to Reborn's early-game poverty that when S&M hands me things like Ultra Potions and 10,000 money rewards, I feel like I'm being mocked.

  7. At first I thought that all this attention given to Aegislash meant we would finally be getting an Aegislash for ourselves. Then I found it suspicious that Ame would seemingly be so generous, and then I read further and realized we'll most likely be on the receiving end of that Aegislash. Now I am sad and afraid.
  8. Go get that Kricketot from the apartment in Peridot, evolve it, and wreck Florinia with Fury Cutter. Seriously, Kricketune is, like, custom-built to take down Florinia, and it's a decent battler in general until around Shelly. If you'd rather use the mons you already have, Litleo could probably pull a lot of the weight while Pancham (after some leveling) could handle Cradily. Poison stalling with Stunky and/or Arbok is also an option, but just beware that Breloom heals poison damage and Ferrothorn is obviously immune to it.
  9. Would you say the Eevee line and Absol could fit into a canine-themed run, or are they too cat-like/ambiguous?

      o.o

      Oh. So it does. That's good, at least one member of the team isn't afraid of the water! Thanks.

      Takosher

      Well, poodles are made for swimming

    4. Takosher

      Takosher

      Smeargle can get Surf as well, of course

  10. I usually go for the 'fight fire with fire' strategy with Charlotte, so Blaziken can be your MVP here, especially if it has Speed Boost (Charlotte's team is insanely fast, which is why it's popular to use Trick Room against her). For Blaziken, I'd say scrap Brave Bird for Flare Blitz, let the field turn into a Burning Field, and have Blaziken sweep everyone with its Fire attacks. Give it with a Charcoal or Flame Plate and set up a Bulk Up or two, and you could probably OHKO most of her team. All Blaziken would need is a proper meat shield to keep it healthy so it can do its job safely. A good
  11. Aww shit it's a video. Watch me sweep Terra with a dead jellyfish.

    1. AeroWraith

      AeroWraith

      spooky jellyfish are the best kind of jellyfish < 3

  12. Methinks my bird-themed and Ghost monotype runs will be in video format now. Yay?

  13. Is it possible to embed videos into a post? I don't mean linking to a Youtube video, I mean putting in a video file from your own computer that others can view.

    1. Felix~

      Felix~

      you need some sort of site to store and share it. Best bet is just uploading it to youtube, there's an opton to hide it from random searches if you don't want it public, and then linking it to a post

  14. Yeah, I kinda suspected it was too early to see anything in Labradorra, since reborn Reborn seems to be the main focus and we haven't addressed Agate yet. It was just a thought because I don't know how much content ep 16 will cover. And even if by chance we do get to Labradorra around then, that wouldn't necessarily mean we'd fight Saphira immediately, which I'd be thankful for. She looks terrifying to fight.
  15. It's also possible that Sigmund might be the one to get offed. Saphira is gunning for his blood after all, and assuming ep 16 covers anything to do with Laboradorra, well, there's only one barrier between him and death by Hyper Beam.
  16. Your team seems like it should be fine against Shelly. Meowstic would have trouble against Bug-types, but I assume she's just there as a placeholder/meat shield. Growlithe and Unfezant would obviously pull most of the weight, but be warned that Masquerain has Icy Wind and Yanmega has Ancient Power.
  17. I forgot, does Shade give you Shadow Ball or Shadow Claw?

      Ojama Yellow

      I remember he once gave the one and once the other. seeing the tendency to nerf, its probably claw now.

    3. Lugruf

      Lugruf

      Shadow ball ep 9, shadow claw ep 15

    4. Anstane

      Anstane

      Yeah, he gives Shadow Claw now.

  18. You can fight repeatable trainers in the Grand Hall in Opal. Alternatively you can grind off Unowns beneath the Grand Stairway, in the bottom room with the long staircase, which net you an EV in Atk and Sp.Atk if you care about such things. You might as well grind up to evolve Braixen and Pidgeotto, then give them one or two Common Candies to bring them back under the level cap. It might also be worth it to have any Dark-type in your team and make Pancham level up so it'll evolve too. I also suggest benching Munna for this fight since it's weak to Bug-type. Do you have any other mons in your
  19. I don't know why I'm suddenly getting that 'crashes while cancelling to use an item' bug when it's never happened in any of my runs before...

  20. Did my 'So You Wanna Play Pokemon Reborn' thingy get moved or deleted? I kinda felt like updating that.

      Should you revise it or simply come out with a version 2.0 and let the old one be archived in its original glory?

    3. Timber Dragon

      Timber Dragon

      Hmm, good question. I thought that I was just gonna revise it, but maybe I'll just make it a separate thread so there'd be some fresh discussion.

    4. Jericho

      It's no longer pinned because we were accruing an overabundance of pinned threads.

  21. Yup, Terra's a gym leader, complete with badge and level cap raise. It's always nice when things go according to plan. I'd be careful using Yanmega and Honchkrow because Terra's team has some Ice- and Electric-type moves, but it seems like Walrein and Golem with Earthquake would be able to handle things okay. If you level up some of your mons closer to 70 then you should be fine.
  22. Trubbish > Grimer. You may smite me now.

      Yeah, I'd love to use Garbodor in Reborn if we had access to TMs that better complimented its stats. Otherwise it really is just an adorable giant trash teddy bear.

  23. Okay where is Golduck? The guide says surf in Ametrine Mountain, but I've been doing that for some time and no Golduck.

    1. Plok

      Plok

      celestinine and citrine mt

    2. Timber Dragon

      Timber Dragon

      Celestine, not Ametrine? And do you need to surf or can it be found on the surface?

    3. Shad_

      Shad_

      You need Surf iirc

  24. Huh? How come Shelly doesn't help break out Heather in Ametrine? That's what happened in my previous run. What'd I do differently?

    1. Commander

      Commander

      Depends on what you choose in Blake's apartment

    2. Timber Dragon

      Timber Dragon

      Choose? You mean there were choices? I thought it was just the puzzle that I had to do, and I solved it the same way I did in my last run.

  25. You can catch a Braviary and a Hawlucha over in Route 2 for some good Flying-types.
