  1. My Monorun has successfully distracted me from the impending doom that is Junior year of high school starting in 27 days! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!

      Very well, i'm glad to see this :) 

  2. So, as some of you might know, I've been doing a monorun of Reborn. I'll keep this brief, but I just wanted to say that I'm thankful to the Reborn dev team for making a game like this, and to the amazing people on this community that I've honestly started to feel at home with. I like this place, and I haven't had this much engaging with people online or playing a video game for a very long time, and I wanted to thank y'all for that.
  3. There's probably some logical reasoning behind it, but it's lost on me, at least
  4. This looks really neat, and I'm definitely playing it; will come back with thoughts, but the concept at least seems really cool, especially with the altered forms
  5. What advice have you for this new circle of hell into which I journey on August 28th? Btw, my courses are as follows (unless one of them fills up): AP Human Geography AP Physics C AP Language & Composition AP Computer Science Principles French Visual Communication (half-year) PE (half-year) Lunch (full-year thank god)
  6. ... based on the present results, it would seem like there's only 2 kinds
  7. Indeed we are; idk 'bout my man red here, but Marcello being a new guy is a Discord joke
  8. @Marcello hey guy, idk why I'm asking you, considering you're pretty new here, but do you have any idea when the servers'll be up again?
  9. 47 I just like how it sounds, I guess. I'm weird, man
  10. I'm mildly annoyed with my new computer, as I've massively overestimated it. Can't run Overwatch, can barely handle Minecraft, and generally isn't great for anything remotely PC intensive. Thankfully, I can at least still run Reborn relatively well, so I'll still be able to enjoy this, at least. 

     

    Still tho, my complete failure to adjust my standards for a computer that wasn't meant for gaming and sold for $429 has resulted in some disappointment, sure, but I'll learn to love the poor thing.

      I know it's already too late for this, but remember: It's always important to do good research, especially when buying tech products!

      As an advice, it is much better to select the components separately and assemble your pc yourself, or ask from an electronic to do it for you. It will cost you MUCH, MUCH LESS than buying a PC constructed by a company, where you pay 75% the brand and 25% the actual components, and the fee for the electronic will be like 75 euros tops (here). My PC was bought this way 7 years ago and can still run stuff like League of Legends at a beyond playable level. And it had costed 650 euros. 

       

      PS. I don't play LoL anymore, don't tempt me back into it, I'm clean for like a year.

  11. IT

  13. Aside from the badges section, I have to agree with @MartelloX that Pokecharms has a nice card maker
  14. Woot woot! Less that 36 hours before I can start The Bug Run from Hell 2!

      YOURS IS THE DRILL THAT WILL PIERCE THE HEAVENS!

       

      It's unfortunately been a while, but my friend I most definitely love Gurren Lagann. One of the most fun shows I've ever watched and I still haven't recovered from the ending.

      In my opinion, it's the most complete and satisfactory anime that exists, and has almost everything in it! The ending was absolutely phenomenal, and so was episode 8.

       

      It's been a while for me as well, but the music, the characters, the story and the overall vibe to it - i could go on for ages! :D

       

      WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK I AM?!

      Why did you remind me of episode 8? 

       

      Why must I suffer once more‽‽‽ 

  15. The Bug Run from Hell 2: It'll Actually Probably Work this Time!

     

    So, as some of you friends might know, I intended to do a Bug Monotype Run recently. It ended, unfortunately, very quickly because my old computer made up its mind to not cooperate or even turn on, and as such, my run was at an end.

     

    BUT WAIT!

     

    I come from a Muslim family, and long story short, we celebrate Eid al-Fitr, and I ended up getting a cool $220, which was more than enough to pay for half of my new computer. The thing has decent specs from what I understand, and it'll easily be able to handle Reborn. And it's coming on Friday. This Friday. July 7th. Hells. Yeah.
     

    So likely on Saturday, I'll have my first post on my new forum post up for this run. A brief overview of rules and such:

     

    Rules:

    • Only Bug types are allowed, including Pokemon that only evolve into Bug types (I don't think any such exist, but y'know, there's the rule)
      • Unlike my first attempt, Bug-Poison types will be allowed
    • One trade per gym is allowed due to the abundance of early-game Bug types
      • Any traded-in Pokemon must be below level 10, especially in later gyms, to make up for the inherent advantage in receiving Pokemon I could not obtain up to that point
    • Other Pokemon are allowed for the purposes of HM slavery and accessing otherwise inaccessible Pokemon/items/locations

    Non-Rule Sidenotes:

    • Right now, the posting plan will likely be one for every day I get to play more than an hour, but I'll turn that up or down depending on the feedback I get from y'all.
    • I'll be using at least one mod: the Any/Random Starter Mod by Walton assuming I can get it to work
      • Other mods are possibilities depending on how I feel about their usefulness and fairness, and I'll state at the beginning of each post what my mods are.
    • I'll include rough play-by-plays of every major battle within spoiler boxes to keep them from taking up huge parts of the screen ("rough" meaning I'll say every significant and distinct thing that happens; if both of us are just slugging it out with both using the exact same move for 30 turns, I won't say every time each individual move happens)
  16. So... there's been an issue... my computer's graphics card is more or less a fickle bastard, and until I get a new computer or if cooperates (which the last time it did this, it didn't work for a month, so don't bet on it), which won't happen for another week to two weeks, I can't continue the run. Also, I've lost Reginapis because unless I can somehow extract my save data off of my hard drive without there being a functional graphics card (and thus any visible output), she's on a save that wasn't backed up. And I have to beat Julia. Again. Alternatively, I've considered starting a new Bug run once I get my computer, maybe trading my starter away for a Bug and continuing fresh. If I do that, btw, I'm probably gonna be taking up a good few offers for Bugs because I'd like to be better equipped to fight Julia if I were to do another run. What do y'all think I should do?
  17. Ayyy, a fellow monorunner! I just started my Bug run yesterday if you wanna maybe check it out perhaps idk you do you
  18. In The Beginning... There was a Challenge I, my friends, didn't start this run without reason. I initially just wanted to do some sort of Monotype run - maybe Dark or Poison, perhaps Fighting or Flying - and I brought this up to my closest frenemy, Cat. She, being a nefarious fiend who'd grow annoyed when I'd bring up Reborn, decided that rather than shutting me down when I brought it up, she'd get nefarious on me. So, when I asked her what type I should do it with, she eventually came to a conclusion: Bug types. But not every Bug type. No Bug-Poison. No Scyther line. And with that, the gauntlet had been thrown, and I was ready to accept her challenge. Admittedly, this is probably gonna start as some very brief accounts and mostly just team updates, barring bosses and other notable events, like evolutions and such, but hey, I'm not required to have incredible writing skills for this sort of thing. And who knows? Maybe I'll get better. A Late Start to Documenting So, I start this account of my journey a bit late. I just finally finished Julia, and dear Arceus man, she was ridiculously hard to beat. I eventually beat her having only lost 3 Pokemon of my 5, but that took a combination of luck, RNGesus deciding one of her Voltorbs would miss Roll Out on Maestro the Kricketune, Maestro the Kricketune cooperating somehow while both paralyzed and overleveled, Aizawa the Swadloon secretly having a just powerful enough Bug Bite to 2HKO her Emolga I never noticed because I'd keep spamming Razor Leaf, and so many other flukes and bits of dumb luck there's no way I'd ever beat her again with my team. But I somehow did. And here, my friends, they are (admittedly, the levels are post-battle): Musashi (Male, Lvl 12, SHINY) No item Nature: Adamant Ability: Compound Eyes Moves: Leech Life Scratch Harden Sand Attack Cole (Female, Lvl 16) No item Nature: Quiet Ability: Early Bird Moves: Tackle Reflect Comet Punch Light Screen Meepmorp (Female, Lvl 14) No item Nature: Calm Ability: Compound Eyes Moves: Tackle Sleep Powder Confusion Poison Powder Aizawa (Female, Lvl 20) No item Nature: Adamant Ability: Leaf Guard Moves: Tackle String Shot Bug Bite Razor Leaf Maestro (Female, Lvl 21) No item Nature: Relaxed Ability: Technician Moves: Leech Life Bide Struggle Bug Fury Cutter And t'was these magnificent Pokemon who somehow pulled me through that hell gym. I am aware it's only gonna get harder, but with some more luck, strategy, careful team-building, and once per gym trades (I know, I know, I cheated this one time with Nincada and Sewaddle, but it ain't happening again) I'll be able to make it far on this run. Wish me luck! Oh, and I had 2 friends who weren't present for the battle. This gal was boxed: Katara (Female, Lvl 14) No item Nature: Serious Ability: Rain Dish Moves: Bubble Quick Attack Sweet Scent Water Sport Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand I have a new pokemon, thanks to Amine on the Discord server! Hail to the oncoming queen, Reginapis! Reginapis (Female, Lvl 10, SHINY) Exp. Share Nature: Jolly Ability: Honey Gather Moves: Sweet Scent Gust N/A N/A And with that, I leave you for now. I'll probably edit this later or add a reply if this gets some reponses, but y'all will definitely hear from me and my Bug Run from Hell again. And thanks to @Jess, a fellow participant in this damned thing, who finished her Bug run and has been providing me tips and general advice for the future, and has offered to help with breeding and the like as well. Thank you kindly, my friend.
  19. Any tags or some such before and after it? I received this info before... just mostly forgot it
  20. Is there anywhere where there's a list of formatting for signatures and how to do things like embed images 's such?
  21. Suffering through the beginning of a hellish Mono run

      Jess

      For this run is long and full of terrors...

  22. PRAISE THE ANCHORESS I DID IT
  23. @Zarc It isn't tho. Where I am in the picture, I got through the same cutscene, and there's nothing involving colors here
  24. @Zarc This video is, unfortunately, outdated; the new puzzle is fairly different
