  1. God Hand. I see people here mentioning I Wanna Be The Guy, and that's not a difficult game, it's a trial-and-error memory test. God Hand is difficulty done right. No part of the game is unfair or putting you at a disadvantage or any artifical difficulty, it's aaaaaaall about how skilled you are and nothing else. You have all the tools you need to succeed from the very start, you just need to learn to use them right. And it's gonna make you learn them, or rage-quit. Hard mode is best mode. Also Nuclear Throne...though that's a way different story.
  2. Internet. Especially since I'm studying programming and we don't even have/use books for most subjects, we do everything digitally. Or if you want a non-generic/obvious answer, morning showers.
  3. Right now, no, it gets no special Dark moves it can use. You can give it Crunch and try that, but it really won't do that well. And lemme ask, are you stuck on Radomus and can't beat him or are you just grinding in general? If you're stuck, just get a Galvanutula, it's really close to there and does well against him and the next gym. If you're just grinding, he's rather easy, only 1 of his Pokemon is pure Psychic type and you can hit everything else supereffectively in other way. Cause this is the worst time to get a Dark type if you want it for more than just this fight, the next 2 gyms are really bad for Dark types.
  4. Yeah, only once....but to be honest, non-mega Banette is real bad.
  5. Honestly, if you only want something to beat Radomus with, you could go get a Heracross or Galvantula (use the search feature for details), they're nearby and Bug is also good for the gym after that. But if you want a Dark/Ghost Pokemon oyu can keep for the long run, you have access to Crawdaunt, Krookodile, Drapion, Malamar, Honchkrow, Cofagrigus, Mismagius, Drifblim and Gourgeist, they're all pretty good.
  6. Just cause we saw the screens only after what happened with Corey doesn't mean that's when the videos(?) were recorded, it would've been foretold if they were created(?) before it happened. My interpretation is that it doesn't Corey because it talks about fortunes being taken, not lost. Corey didn't really have his taken, he himself chose to throw it away.
  7. Ahhhhhh, Sigi putting in that WORK! Was surprised by the turn 1 Tail Glow, but other than that, the game went exactly as I had in mind. Rarely have a game this perfect. OUsuspecttest-2015-12-07-etesian-speedygonzalex.html
  8. Yeah, no, I half-guessed as much. It's just that, on those screenshots, the first field's "Certain moves" thing doesn't have a star while the second one's does.
  9. I know I'm kinda late for this but So would that mean that system will be the only in-game way to see what field effects do what? If so, I'm hoping there's a more detailed view of these, would suck to be left with just "Certain Attacks ^ x2". And I had to go to the text file anyways to see what that thing under WoW's accuracy is (that no Pokemon can be frozen), cause I couldn't make out the symbol, so that's also a thing I think should maybe be shown differently.
  10. Ansatsu Kyoushitsu's author has another lengthy manga, so that should work out for you (i don't remember the name, google the author). Same for Fairy Tail's author. His older one, Rave Master (not what it sounds like lol), is better than Fairy Tail IMO.
  11. Holy hell, Sigilyph in OU is doing WORK!

    1. Shanco

      Shanco

      A hella underrated pokemon in OU.

  12. Absolutely. I've always been interested in writing and would love to know the thought process of someone as they're writing. Why they're doing something, why that way, why not any of the alternatives, etc, I'd love that.
  13. Iirc, I don't think they need nicknames, you just have to have them be first in your party and also have a Helix Fossil in your bag. Or if that doesn't work, one of the guys there tells you what to name it, ABBBBBBK (so max name length, first A, last K, everything in between Bs).
  14. Progress more, he won't show up if you haven't beaten Aya yet. And...you sure you're in the right place? The little hut on Azurine Island? Cause it's not a hiker, it's just some guy.
  15. Looks great, thanks! Also, never used AV Metagross, always wanted to take it for a spin. And since Sigi is basically that team's hazard-setter remover, should I ditch Shadow Ball for HP Ground for Heatran? Or idk, Enegry Ball for Rotom? I just put SB there randomly, but does it hit anything relevant (that doesn't outspeed and kill it)?
  16. As bad as it may be, I love Sigilyph, so: Sigilyph @ Life Orb Ability: Magic Guard EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe Timid Nature - Psyshock - Heat Wave - Ice Beam - Shadow Ball? Change what you will on it.
  17. We don't, but you can go back to E12 and breed for it. Skorupi/Drapion>Nincada.
  18. The thing with Shedinja is that it works really well if you know what the foe's packing, cause of all it's immunities. And that's actually not that hard, cause Flying, Dark and Ghost are very rarely seen on something other than Flying, Dark and Ghost types (and Psychic types). Seriously, I gave myself an extra Shedinja starter and Crunch Avalugg was the only surprise I had from those types. So you should be able to find plenty of opportunities to use it. You can either go with 4 attacks (X-Scissor, Shadow Sneak, Phantom Force (or Shadow Claw from TM (give it a scope lens)) and Dig (E12)) or what I think is better, STABs, Shadow Sneak, Hone Claws. The AI switches out very rarely, even when they have absolutely nothing to hit you, so you should be able to set up a good number of boosts pretty easily. Then just push buttons and see what happens. It sucks that you have to switch out if something can hit you and you can't kill it with Shadow Sneak, so you gotta switch out, but you can set up again easily, so it works out.
  19. Yeah, like I said, Venomoth is eitger fantastic or trash, it reappy depends on the opponent. There are other, more stable things (like Durant, that tging awept even Charlotte for me) If you're iffy on Venomoth, there's all the othr Bug types I recommended. Want any sets for those?
  20. IMO, this would've worked out a lot better with a better video. Or at least one that isn't an hour long. I was really curious at first, but I gave up on the video after the first 10 minutes which were just saying how great it is over and over, not giving any useful info. Though I was a bit skeptical from the start. Call me an idiot, but the link made me iffy about this before I even started the video. The "&h=true" at the end of the link, you could've linked the video without that and it would've worked. Yes, I know, that doesn't have to mean anything, &h= in the URL is usually a thing that's put there if a site's search feature got you to that topic (even Reborn does it, but I think we use hl instead of h). But still, just reading the word true in the link of the video of this NEW REVOLUTIONARY TECHNOLOGYTM made me iffy. Especially cause I watch the news a lot and never heard of this before, and now apparently "MoneyMapPress.com" is so far ahead of the world that they're offering you to invest in something the rest of the world has yet to even report on.
  21. I'm perfectionistic in all the useless things Nah, why bother with Mamoswine if you don't like it. It's good, but you have other options. -The first that comes to mind is Avalugg, that thing's Avalanche is stronger than Mamo's Icicle Crash. You've got 2 options... 1)Mirror Coat, Avalanche, Crunch, Rock Tomb/Bulldoze. 2)Gyro Ball(E12), Avalanche, Crunch, Rock Slide(E12)/Bulldoze. ...cause you can't breed both Mirror Coat and Gyro Ball. The chain for GB and RS is in the guide. For other Ice types, there's Cryogonal, Vanilluxe, Weavile, Aurorus and Lapras. I already did this, so mind if I copy-paste? With Venomoth, the thing is that you either outspeed, hit a Sleep Powder set up and sweep some or you get outsped and killed in one hit. The set would be Tinted Lens with Sleep Powder, Quiver Dance, Bug Buzz and Sludge Bomb (E12, Skrelp>Wooper>Snubbul>Roselia>Paras>Venonat). It's a lot like Vivillon. Vivillon is more accurate and has the strongest move (91% accurate Hurricane) cause of Compound Eyes, Venonat is slightly specially bulkier + better defensive typing and can't be walled cause of Tinted Lens.
  22. Isn't this like your 4th topic about your team? Not that I'm complaining, glad you're keeping me busy (especially cause I remember almost nothing from the last 3) Anyways! -I think you got that Charizard set from me, but I'll say it again: Charizard is bad. It's somewhat useful with DD, but I'd still use a different Fire type, at least until we get the Mega Ring and appropriate stone. Want any suggestions? -Already discussed that in your other topic, so moving on. -Personally, I'm no fan of Belly Drum Azu, I like 4 attacks a lot more. Anyways, Aqua Ring is terrible. It provides very slow recovery and even if it was quicker, who cares, we have healing items for that. And where's the Play Rough at? Also, instead of BD (which works, but you should run BD, Jet, Waterfall, Play Rough), I'd go for either Bounce (tutor at the circus) or Body Slam (breeding). (Bounce is somewhat inaccurate, but if you give it a Wide Lens, Play Rough has 99% accuracy and Bounce has ~95%) -I can see what you're going for with Toxic-Venoshock, but it's not worth it, Crobat isn't bulky enough for all that (but you can get somethign with Toxic spikes instead, a sturdy level 1 Pineco will do if you don't wanna bother training something and you really only need one layer for Venoshock). Instead, get a good Hidden Power (FIghting/Ground are perfect) or Dark Pulse. -Luxray is pretty bad, mediocre Speed and Defenses. It's offenses are good, especially if you get the Toxic Orb and activate it's Guts, but you're not even using Wild Charge, so I really don't think you should keep it. If you're looking for a good Electric type, there's Heliolisk, Eelektross, Magnezone, Galvantula, Stunfisk and Ampharos that I'd say are all better (well, if you go to E12 and get Galvantula Thunder or Energy Ball). -Mmmmmmno. It's fast, but it's got mediocre special attack and trash defenses. And you can't even get Focus Blast. The only use I can see on it would be a quick Final Gambit, but that's it (and I don't even know if FG works properly). I'd really just say swap it with something. For other Bug types, there's Venomoth, Vivilon, Heracross, Shedinja, Leavanny, Galvantula, Scolipede, Crustle, Escavalier, Durant and Armaldo. I'd recommend you something with Sticky Web or Scolipede for Baton Pass. Next, for your back-ups...they're better than your main team IMO. -Gyarados is Gyarados, all you get is that one same old boring good set. -Don't bother with Iron Tail, that accuracy is trash. Also, look into E12 breeding, my guide gives chains for Poison Jab, Dig, X-Scissor and/or Night Slash. I'd run DD, Dragon Claw, Poison Jab, Dig on it, cause Fairy and Steel are the only things standing in the way of you spamming STAB moves. Also, it depends on when you started, but if you fought Shade in E15, you have Shadow Claw, which is another, easier-to-get alternative to Night Slash (if you run SC or NS, remember to get a Scope Lens so that you have a 50% chance to crit with that move). -Ninetales and a Rain Heliolisk, y u do dis. But seriously, Drought Ninetales + Solar Power Heliolisk tear through the game and Azu doesn't even benefit all that much from rain anyways. I'd recommend you switch it to Solar Power and get Thunderbolt, Grass Knot (TM or breeding), Dark Pulse and Hidden Power (Ice is absolutely perfect for it). -Ninetales is a great attacker and I'd definitely use it over your Charizard. For moves, while it has alright special bulk, but the physical side is bad even if you get that Will-o-Wisp off. I'd go back to E12 and get it Energy Ball, maybe a good Hidden Power (Rock and Ground are perfect) and keep Extrasensory or get Nasty Plot or Dark Pulse. -Definitely make Drapion Sniper and grab a Scope Lens, you'll be criting with Cross Poison and Night Slash 50% of the time. On that note, Poison+Dark is pretty good coverage and Sniper crits do over double the non-crit damage, so you can look into Swords Dance and Agility over Toxic Spikes and Ice Fang. You don't even need any Speed EVs, Adamant no-EVs at +2 outspeeds even max speed Electrodes. Or if that's not your thing, keep Ice Fang and ditch Toxic Spikes (unless you plan on using Drapion and Crobat at the same time a lot). Instead of T-Spikes, there's Dig from E12, other fang moves, Brick Break, X-Scissor from E12 and Rock Tomb. -Just no. Froslass has alright speed, but 70s in bulk and 80s in offenses. You can try some Hail+Snow Cloak+Bright Powder thing, but I'd prefer not to get OHKOed just cause the opponent didn't get unlucky and hit. There's other Ice and Ghost types that are simply better. Want suggestions?
  23. Actually, LS and PF are level-up moves and the chain for WoW and Protect in E12 is literally just Yamask>Pumpkaboo And I'd usually agree with running an offensive set, Gourgeist can do it well, but there's a good number of other things that are simply better at it. And OP is already running a defensive-y set anyways.
  24. Yeah, no, that F1 menu doesn't work. And Reborn itself has no options to mess with that. There's 2 options I know of. 1) Getting a Registry Editor. Among other functions, those let you rebind keys, so you could replace your arrow keys with whatever. But that change would affect your entire system (you can change it back whenever) and you'd have to restart your computer every time you make a change. I mean, It works, but typing is a huge pain. 2) Custom keyboard layout creators. All I know about those is that "they exist", so try Google, I guess?
