    when did charmander get dragon rage at lv 16? is this reborn exclusive cause i definitely remember it being metal claw at lv 16

    Reborn uses gen 6 learnset iirc and it does learn it at lv 16 right after smokescreen at lv 10.

    if you wanna mono run I would suggest maybe getting someone to trade you in the first available mon in exchange for your starter asap. or if you dont feel like doing that you could just spam wondertrade until one of your type pops up and roll from there. (both have their advantages and disadvantages, but imo they both beat running through the game until you find your type)

     

    Yeah I know about that option but generally I wanna keep it singleplayer only mostly cuz that's how I do in the original games too.

     

    I'll prob go with Charmander then, lv 16 dragon rage sounds really OP indeed o.o. Thank you!

  3. Hello, with some research I've already came into conclusion which starters are regarded as the best, but after going through a run with 3 of them (blaziken, serperior, greninja), I noticed how they are reasonably underwhelming early game and only get OP later on.

     

    So I wanted to know which starters are straight up amazing early on, even if they lose their shine later.

     

    Reason for this is that I might attempt some mono runs soon so in case I go with a type like Bug, I want a starter to get me as quickly as possible to the first available mon of the mono type I'm running.

    I quoted everyone. so hence the following spoiler

    As it was mentioned before, I'm not questioning it's role in the actual game since what you said its true (about having him as your starter while advancing through the story of the mid and early game). I'm specifically talking about facing a Lvl 100 protean greninja with a full moveset in an online random matchup.. It just feels unfair, given the other limitations placed on those same battles.

     

     

     

    Oh forgive me, still not used to this whole online side of reborn yet and I'll prob never be since I'm not that much interested in it :p. Ignore what I said then.

    I'm pretty sure there are a lot of quests that get "time locked" once you get to the circus since the old Reborn town transforms into the new clean Reborn (and I'm pretty sure those are two completely separate maps). But I can't really name any specific quest that becomes unavailable (other than the "stolen pokemon" sidequest).

     

    Spoiler

    Hmm... that makes sense. So my plan would only work if I stopped right before heading to Agate Circus to do everything available, then complete the story up to ep16, then do the rest of side quests & stuff including the new ones from this release.

     

    I suppose I could do that.

     

  6. Hello! Er... I've already gone through reborn twice, my first playthrough was back when there were 13 episodes and my second recent playthrough was done during the community release of episode 16. However, I'm still up to some more pokemans so...

     

    I was thinking about starting a new game and just "rush" through it, not caring much about side quests and what not, only grabbing some pokemon here and there that I do find useful for certain fights. The catch is, once I finish the game I'd basically try to do all events at once and try to have all pokemon that are available as of episode 16 (except some of the ones tagged as limited event).

     

    My question is if it's possible to do that or some pokemon/important items are like "time locked" and once you go past "x" gym or "y" point in the storyline you can't have access to them anymore. I don't mind scenarios like this though: (spoiler tag I guess)

    Spoiler

    Apparently you can only grab Whismur before Julia, but later on you can buy Loudred then breed for Whismur so that's fine.

     

  7. Greninja is the most fun starter imo simple due to its versatility, however I don't think the frog is overpowered or even the best starter mainly due to the fact that in important battles where we have field effects and such which are basically a secondary or additional stab, Greninja will still take a lot of damage even switching to a type resistant to an attack because it's super frail. I do believe Blaziken and maybe even Serperior are better starters, though Serperior takes a lot of levels to show its true power (basically when you have leaf storm).

     

    About Gengar and Gyarados I'm not sure tbh, we're already kinda far into the game and we do have access to a lot of strong mons so I'm a little surprised as well that those 2 are still not obtainable, maybe there's an some sort of event planned for those 2 who knows.

  8. So right now Leech Seed works on a pokemon with the Sap Sipper and I'm pretty sure the ability should make the pokemon immune to any grass-type moves, be it damaging or not. It does absorb other grass moves though, I'm not sure if it's only leech seed that's bypassing it or it's something to do with non-direct damaging grass moves such as Stun Spore or Sleep Powder, so you guys could test that maybe?

     

    Here's a bunch of images to illustrate the bug, spoiler tag cuz space:

    About overleveled pokemon... Spoilers I guess?:

     

    Spoiler

    As soon as you get Rock Smash & Shelly's badge, you can explore this area near the Abandoned Power Plant called Citrine Mountain 2F and in there, all pokemon tend to be around level 25~30-ish, but for some weird reason the evolved form of those wild mons are level 50 like... you'll find a cute lil' level 30-ish Phanpy and then boom lv 50 wild Donphan. Not only that, there's also a Smoochum event in there that I also had access this early and I had to face a level 50 Beartic. I'm not sure whether the event is intended or not to be available this early, but I suppose the wild 50 mon aren't.

     

    Here's a bunch of screenshots. I took them now with my lv 60-ish team, but like I said you can get there as soon as you have rock smash and the badge:

  9. Don't base the difficulty off Venam. She was made much easier because she's only the first leader. After this it alllll goes downhill. Only a few people know of her true power

    Yeah I know, it's kinda like the explosive girl in reborn.

    Thanks for letting me know and I'm also curious about Version 2 Venam hehe.

  10. Hello, I've started playing on Insane and I kinda wanna know how hard it is compared to Normal difficulty.

    Like... idk, important trainers' mons are 1~3 levels above, things like that.

    So far I've beaten the first gym and only her ace gave me some trouble but I'm not underestimating the game or anything, just curious.

  11. Once the game is completed I'd put Easy/Normal/Challenging difficulty.

    Easy would be there just to attract more players

    Current = Normal

    Challenge = the difficulty wouldn't increase too much, but hidden abilities wouldn't be obtainable till X gym. (Idk how exactly it would work like a NPC or a function to or idk, but that would certainly make the game more difficulty plus no speed boost torchic in the beginning).

    Idk if this is already in-game or not but I'd give a STAB move to all starters because it's a bit unfair imo that some starters only get their STAB moves at level 9 or something (e.g.: gen 2).

  12. Good luck.May all your hits be critical and your focus blasts never miss.

    xD nice reference.

    > Safe Side

    > Not even overleveled

    Youngsters nowadays. It was still easy cuz Magic Bounce OP.

    Baltoy a.k.a Ecchi joins the team!

    0dtMq4D.pngpjgDM46.png

    Facing the rival for a second time.

    Woah bro no need to be so overleveled.

    Got a Quick Claw in Floccecy Ranch and decided to give it to the slowest in my team, unfortunately it's a tie between Baltoy and Gothita, so I gave it to Baltoy because wynaut.

    So my rival gave me an exp. share, can I even call him a rival? :/.

    ... and the Team Plasma dude gave me TM21 Frustration. Kind.

    JEleWuy.pnghiGj6on.png

    Staryu solo'd 2 level 11 pokemon being 6/7 (Alder's er... apprentice I guess). It was so fast I didn't have time to screenshot lel.

    UEO1rHr.pngCx7rVvZ.png

    Before facing the Gym Leader, how about a friendly battle with Roxanne? Yes, RSE gym leaders are here too and they're supposed to be beaten before the Gym Leader, although it' not mandatory. Anorith could've potentially solo'd my team, but thankfully this is not a nuzlocke so I can sack pokemon.

    Now the question is... which pokemon shall face Cheren. I'll decide tomorrow #cliffhanger.

    This is pretty much the first time I'm playing while posting what I've done so any feedback is appreciated c:

  13. So... I'm about to start a Custom Mono-type Run in Volt White 2 challenge mode so wynaut create a topic here.

    Since I'm doing a nuzlocke already, I decided to do something different this time and since a name is obligatory I decided to name it "pursinlocke" although it's not a nuzlocke, it can still be done as so.

    Rules

    Pursinlocke (although it's not a locke)

    1- You can only catch one pokemon per area and none else.
    2- Any pokemon you catch must be randomly swapped for an egg that is in the PC. (I'm gonna use random.org)
    2.5 - All Pokémon must be of the same type. Dual typing counts as always.
    3- Any pokemon hatched may be leveled to the level matching the pokemon that was exchanged for the egg, through the use of Rare Candies. Because of this, any Rare Candies obtained in the game must be used immediately, for authenticity purposes.
    4- All of your pokemon who fought against a Gym Leader must be boxed right after the battle.
    5- Pursinlocke ends when one of these 3 conditions are met: (1) the player loses a battle /
    (2) the player doesn't have any more pokemon available / (3) the player rematches the elite 4 + champion and wins.

    The Psychic Box a.k.a dem lolies (don't ask me why please xD)

    21 - Beldum
    22 - Bronzor
    23 - Ralts (Gallade)
    24 - Munna
    25 - Woobat
    26 - Darumaka (Replaced with Darmanitan-Z because in this hack it's a different pokemon, not a Darmanitan form).
    27 - Sigilyph
    28 - Gothita
    29 - Solosis
    30 - Elgyem

    The "Retirement" box a.k.a S-senpais (don't ask me why please xD²).

    None for now.

    Encounters

    Aspertia City: Oshawott <-> Woobat
    Route 19: Patrat <-> Gothita
    Floccecy Town: N/A
    Route 20: Seedot <-> Baltoy
    Floccecy Ranch: Houndour

    Random.org picked number 25, so Oshawott <-> Woobat.
    Random.org picked number 28, so Patrat <-> Gothita.
    Random.org picked number 19, so Seedot <-> Baltoy.
    Random.org picked number 06, so Houndour <-> Staryu.

    If I messed up/forgot anything I'll edit >.<.

  14. I could never wait that long to watch them. Its just the knowledge they are there and they are good + to much free time, that would drive me crazy.^^ Also the seven deadly sins are not ending in the next 3 months.

    Manga it is then :(. Tbh I don't have the patience to watch 1 episode every week, I end up procrastinating and starting from the beginning later xD.

  15. On this season i personally enjoy Parasyte, Cross Ange and Nanatsu no Taizai, the most. Grisaia no Kajitsu is pretty good too in my opinion.

    Also against the seemingly different opinions, I liked SAO 2 pretty much, even more as the first season at some points.

    Just watched SAO ll yesterday and I can say it was enjoyable as well.

    Am I the only one who likes to wait till an anime ends just so you can marathon it? I can't wait for ubw and seven deadly sins to end >.<.

  16. I recently mixed egglocke with monolocke and the result was this:

    It takes some time but with I pokegen all base forms of x type. For example I used bug-type in Volt White, there were 30 pokemon plus Genesect.

    Dem Rules:

    1- Any Pokémon that faints is considered "dead," and must be released or stored in a specified PC box for "dead" Pokémon.
    2- You can only catch the first Pokémon encountered in each area, and none else. If the first Pokémon encountered faints or flees, there are no second chances.
    3- Any Pokemon you catch must be swapped for an egg that is in the PC.
    4- Any Pokémon hatched may be leveled to the level matching the Pokémon that was exchanged for the egg, through the use of Rare Candies. Because of this, any Rare Candies obtained in the game must be used immediately, for authenticity purposes.
    5- You must also nickname all of your Pokémon, for the sake of forming "stronger emotional bonds."
    6- All pokémon that are gonna be used must be of the same type. Ofc dual typing is allowed.
    7- Pokémon given by NPCs do not count as an encounter, but still be swapped for an egg.

    8- Non-legendary pokemon can only be swapped for another non-legendary, but legendary pokemon can be swapped for a non-legendary in case there are no more legendaries available.

    9- The locke ends when all available pokémon are dead, the player loses a battle or when the player rematches the elite 4 + champion and wins.

    I use random.org to decide which egg a pokemon will be swapped for.

    Ps.: my rules are a bit unorganized but well...

  17. I'm playing the steins;gate visual novel right now xD. Although, I've been distracted by other things, I'll marathon it eventually.

    @above: I plan on watching Seven Deadly Sins, I actually wanted to read the manga first, but since the anime was released, wynaut checking it first.
