  1. If I remember correctly, a Ground/Steel pokemon like Steelix or Excadrill can wall it for dayz. There is always the option for: Curse, Destiny Bond, Perish Song, Soak, Mirror Coat etc
  2. Scizor and Aegislash are definitely not getting in there until we beat Hardy. Skarmory and Ferrothorn should be already considered in-game due to the desert. Gengar got a huge nerf in gen7, meaning EQ hits it hard now. I would expect it to return as an event in the Wasteland, probably replacing the old Misdreavous event. Gyarados is a running gag by now, and quite powerful. We should be able to complete this series of events by now. If you are persistent enough to get it, you should own it by now. As others have pointed out, Salamence and Dragonite are way too powerful for the remaining gym leaders. Thematically they belong to the Victory Road. Talonflame is pretty much in, right after we beat Titania. The bird got a nerf for its flying type attacks, yet it still is an incredibly fast fire type that could even solo Titania. The remaining 3 are: Garchomp, Hydreigon, Tyranitar. Arguably Hydreigon is the weaker of the 3, yet quite problematic for Saphira. Garchomp is problematic for every single gym so, even if it fits thematically for the desert, the AI won't be able to cope with it. Perhaps later, with an event. Tyranitar is good right now to be included. As long as access to Larvitar does not equal access to Deino, I see no reason not to have access to another Pseudo-Legendary.
  3. As others have said, design is important. Before you release the game re-work on all the fakemon designs. Usually the creation goes like this: general idea of what the pokemon looks like --> give type(s) --> give abilities and stats --> provide movepool --> make design --> improve design --> finish I avoid all fakemon whose design was lazy or overcomplicated. It's funny because it has also happened with canon pokemon, so this is a really important thing to consider. I played till Gen3, then returned in Gen5 with no knowledge of what new pokemon exist, so I started with hacks. When I saw the elemental monkeys I thought they were lazily made fakemon and avoided them. I think I speak for many when I say that design plays a big role in a pokemon game. Therefore I have this proposal for you. Since the artwork for your fakemon will probably not be similar to that of the canon pokemon, and thus the difference will show, you should make your world completely with fakemon. I understand this might turn out to be a lengthy process, but it's a winning strategy. When the folks that tried to create Se7en tried to do it, they were working on it for months. They even launched a huge marketing campaign to get people to play their game. The first episode was a huge success as it was a new experience to most. I believe any creator who wishes to make a new pokemon world with fakemon, should aim at this; a new experience. You may achieve what others could not. The designs are not half bad, but they still need work. Before taking this seriously, I suggest you make contact with a few people capable of coding and designing as that would speed up your process. It also makes up for any silly idea you may have. Furthermore I suggest before creating the game to have the story written down and revised a few times, so that when you start building your world, you don't end up making something so generic that it will be easily forgotten.

  5. I don't know if I'm getting old, but my favorite is Roosevelt Vs Churchill, mainly because every line was a reference I understood.

You might consider me a "veteran" around here. I have been absent for quite some time, due to health reasons. Then I decided to lurk, as I no longer had the time to be as active as I used to be. My name is Nick, as you've already seem above, and I am a medical student in my 5th year now. I have interacted with most of the people who already posted here. Some I consider my friends. Others I can respect. As for "who" I am, that is difficult to answer. I am an arrogant overzealous man, who tries to broaden his horizons and specialize at the same time. How did you get here? I've been around since 2013, when I first entered college. I was actively seeking something to entertain me while I would be working abroad, since my house didn't have internet connection, and childhood nostalgia brought me to pokemon fangames. After deciding to test Reborn, I got so immersed in it that I decided to learn to play competitively. I entered with full enthusiasm and participated in the tournaments they organized. I wasn't particularly good at it at first but slowly learned. If by "here" you mean this thread (of course not but w/e), I wanted to return to Reborn. What other place is more suitable than a thread that actively works as an introduction? What are you responsible for? In Reborn, nothing. I have never been part of the auth, primarily because I lack the coding skills. While I was actively participating in the forums, I was focused on the competitive part of the community. Along with others we made projects about Teambuilding, using and dealing with specific megas, RMT's and how to become a better teambuilder, and organized some of the battle tourneys whose descendants you may participate in. Fun times. I really hate I was out for most of Gen7, and I hate much more that due to real-life obligations I could not be more active in the forums (to get promoted ofc) Which post best describes you? There is none. Only part of me is revealed in each of my posts, and frankly, you won't get a clear idea about me by randomly checking them. In some I am childish, and others dead serious. You need only message me to get to know me better (wink wink, nudge nudge). What can we talk about? Pancreas, and how much you really need yours. Unless you wish to talk about celebrities or sports trivia, I am open to any form of conversation. There is no subject that I am not capable or willing to discuss, given my partner does not resort to personal offense to prove a point. If there is interest in a subject, and enough information to go back-and-forth, we can indulge ourselves in it for hours. Probably not hours per se, or at least not continuously. Sometimes I need to sleep.. I understand that was way too general, so here are my favorite subjects: Medicine, Astro-Physics, Politics, Mythology, any-freaking-thing Closing Statements: 1. I am uncertain if I am still allowed to call Azery a Duck, Viri a rusty Magnezone, and Bibs a Pineapple. 2. Live to see yourself become better than the person you've always admired.
  7. I don't think you believed I forgot you. Happy birthday! Be happy. You are still an Ace of Spades to me.
  8. I'm very sick, so I probably won't be around the following days. Therefore, I would like to wish each and every one of you a Happy New Year, full of joy. Let the new year bring you all the previous years have not been generous enough to give you.

  9. Victoria II . I just became a world power with Cambodia. It took 50 years, but I did it. 

  10. Is YouTube down, or could it be a problem with my connection?

      Youtube is fine for me. 

  11. Reborn has shown me that I too can be spiderman. I too can destroy an orphanage and burn the orphans.

  12. Chocolate Melomakarona. I rest my case. No more replies shall be taken into consideration.
  13. You can't handle the beard, mate. The lake is frozen, so the snow fits nicely with the picture.
  14. Unfortunately I had serious connection problems and could not attend the Winter Party. Can someone please fill me in on what happened and who the new royalty are?

      Congratulations! It probably is Bibs as well 

  15. Welcome. Most people are nice, so I guess it must have been misunderstandings for you to get that much annoyed and leave. We wholeheartedly welcome you, and since you've been a member, you know where to find us and what we do.
  16. \o Welcome to the forums! If you need anything, we redirect all questions to Njab
  17. I have been waiting for this to start a new playthrough. Apparently the Gen2 monorun ended up pretty well. So, for everyone wondering, I shall be handing out precious mons for all of you to grab. Gen2 all of them, so don't expect anything crazy.
  18. I used to think of sleep as wasted time, and after a bit it actually is. Biologically I need 5 REM cycles which is 6-7h to be fully functional. I can live with less, and during the week due to my heavy schedule and little time for other activities, which I steal from my sleep time
  19. Take a step back and look at your situation logically. Your family has a high budget. Therefore you apply measures of austerity which you should follow in order for the budget to manage your needs. If you go beyond that budget, cuts will need to be made. Thus no chocolate milk at all. So it can be a question of short-term personal gain versus a long-term reduced but still existing privilege. You probably thought you were bypassing your family rules, but all you end up doing is making it harder on all of you. It's small, but if everyone does their small 'bypass' money will come short really fast.
  20. Me: Have you felt pain in your chest, and if yes, how would you describe it?

    Patient: No, never. All I felt was 'discomfort' during breathing.

    Me: Ok fine *moves on with Hx*

    Me (later): Is there anything else you'd like to tell me that you think is important?
    Patient: Yes, past week I felt pain in the center of my chest, which reflected on my left shoulder.

    Me: (internal screaming)

  21. Welcome and have a nice time here. If you need anything, most people are happy to help.
  22. Not all bugs happen in all save-files. The fatal ones are dealt with during the beta. "A" is an alternative to "Z" and it has few uses, therefore there is a way to avoid those bugs you 'read about'. You can always wait for the public release. Just don't think the bugs are enough to ruin the experience. I personally ran through the game enough times during the development stage and after, and hardly came accross any serious bugs.
