    No it, literally just one shots Chansey with Dark Pulse as the base. Black Hole Eclipse gets boosted by 6x on the New World Field lol. (4x to just Black Hole Eclipse, 1.5x to Dark moves in general.)

     

    ;

    +6 252+ SpA Hydreigon Black Hole Eclipse (160 BP) vs. 244 HP / 12 SpD Eviolite Chansey: 705-831 (100.4 - 118.3%) -- guaranteed OHKO
     
    (+6 = 4x boost to SpAtk, Specs = 1.5x.)

    ah, okay.

    It wouldn't be good vs Black Hole Eclipse. That thing's Black Hole Eclipse one shots Eviolite Chansey's, no way Primarina is living lol.

    I mean, Chansey doesn't resist. and Drei has decently high attack so it could be based on Crunch in that situation

  3. Reborn is, to an extend, trial and error. you test a strategy if it fails your try another or the same altered a bit. Granted if you try the exact same thing over and over expecting things to change... well, lemme ask Vaas about that

    thanks boy

    I have no problem with Leon S. Kennedy as a playable fighter. In fact, he replaces Zant on my list of most wanteds.

     

    But he will be fighter #69. Are you sure you are OK with this?

    why would I care about what number he is? so there are people who will try to meme it, but Bellsprout has been number 69 for many years and hasn't really got memed so I'm not scared.

    Can't remember if it was the episode before the last or the one before that but nappy use to defend developers now he's spamming outrage it feels like. Though I'm not hurt I didn't design the feilds 😏. Regardless they haven't quit so maybe nappy will come back around and defend.

    he's said that he likes the game, but the "bullshit" is something he hates. Granted he basically put the bullshit on himself with the Nuzlocke...

  6. Fangames are morally wrong. The main way I believe this is the case is the simple notion of "Why buy a console and a game at full price when there's a free form of that game for PC, albeit slightly different." There is a chance that a fan-game will impact sales, that chance existing, no matter how small it may seem, is already a big part of why. The second part comes from using the name of something to create your own thing. The way Nintendo handles them may not be 100% correct on a moral point of view either, but legally it's 100% the best thing to do. Take for example AM2R and that whole thing. The game was released fully functional and the creator got a DMCA. As little as it did, this did affect the sales of Samus Returns. There were people boycotting a game they would have loved just because Nintendo did the legally correct thing. Even more, AM2R would have been a direct competitor to SR due to both of them reliving Metroid 2. Closing statement: Fan-games are a wonderful thing, but that can't save them from technically being morally wrong.

    @BIGJRA

    I agree with all the mons you listed, especially Krook and Escavalier. Trick Room is a pretty rare move, even with the TM, but it's really good for the whole Agate-Ametrine segment because of the sudden EV-trained enemies. Jagen Kricketune is honestly why people don't really care about the earlygame's difficulty, and I'd argue is the best non-starter Pokemon for said segment, though it isn't particularly good against Corey and Shelly.

     

    @Azery then

    The thing with Pokemon like Garchomp, Gyarados, is that they all come at the end of a game and fill similar roles to previous Pokemon available. Yes those three are nigh-unrivaled in their field sans legends, but In-game Pokemon isn't nearly as picky stat-wise as competitive. I don't think Garchomp is anywhere near as good as the utility the likes of Krookodile, Excadrill, and Flygon bring because he isn't around for many fights that the others contribute in. Excadrill is an ungodly wallbreaker (albeit locked behind RNG for the most part) who evolves early and packs some of the highest Attack ratings available. He can start stomping teams from Shelly, whereas Garchomp comes something like 12 badges later, and then comes at like level 30, so you have to grind it up to speed, which is something that a trained Flygon or Krookodile (Who is also a good rocker if needed) wouldn't have to deal with. Garchomp's roles can also be filled by Flygon and Krookodile. Gyarados faces the same problem as DD sweepers like Scrafty, Feraligatr, and the aforementioned Flygon exist and are more readily available. and I personally don't think Gyarados brings enough. I could understand Garchomp and Gyarados, being a dominant force if there was some huge strength gap between his contemporaries that a 'mon like Aegislash has, but Garchomp and Gyarados fill roles that could have been comfortably filled long before they arrived.

     

    Scizor gets a pass, as while sweeping two endgame fights isn't really what I'd call top-tier (my Clefable did the same thing), he's second to Blaziken as a sweeper, and like you said comes at a relatively high level. Depending on how E19 goes, Scizor could be a late-game superpower as there are very little natural SD sweepers, and who knows when we'll get the SD TM.

     

    I always seem to sleep on Typhlosion, mostly because I personally hate it, but to each his own. Typhlosion is a real good one-trick pony, I just don't think it's really worth choosing as a starter as he's really only average until it gets Eruption Typhlosion can certainly run through Charlotte, but I'm not too sure about post E17 Blake, as he has a lot of Fire-Resists now (I think Starmie, Gyarados, and TF Walrein) and half his team is above base 100 spd (Weavile, Starmie, Slushslash). Other than that, he's really good at double battles, and has pretty good coverage thanks to Nature Power and possibly Extrasensory.

     

    Those days are long gone, my friend.

    maybe, but the legacy alone is enough to warrant the mention

    Ice and Bug types sharing two common weaknesses, Nappy's argument is not valid this time. He must have been severely bugged by Bennett.

    let's not forget trying to bring a flying/dragon type to an Ice arena (granted I believe he wanted to use Noivern to shatter the field, but I could be wrong there)

  9. They act like Ame put a gun to their head and told them to Nuzlocke reborn. She would probably not even do that to her worst enemy (as evil as she is). Reborn is not meant to be Nuzlocked, especially not blind. The game throws you curveballs as far as the eye can see, subverts your expectations and, most important of all, give you space to breathe before telling you to put up or shut up. Everyone and their Pikachu warned them this was gonna happen. did they listen? well, as we know they don't listen or read so... fuck reborn right? As for blaming the devs... Why? You notice that this game is hard in a way that isn't Dark Rising. It's not level up to win. It's more like: strategize, Trial and error. No more, no less. if you know what to expect, the game will still send you packing. but all in all, it's all fair.
