  1. Oh man I love reading about the users behind the actual characters. It can really provide some more insight too, like I see Sigmund and bratty heather(jeez playing again she is absolutely insufferable at first, especially the scene with cain/shelly).in a completely different light because of it.

    I completely agree about the Heather thing. I liked her most between saving her from the orphanage and the moment she flew off at the exit of the underground.

  2. I was honestly taken aback by her entire team. I always thought of Ciel having graceful, beautiful, elegant flying types, like her character would suggest.

    Mega Pidgeot, Togekiss, Jumpluff, Drifblim, a bug like Vivillon/Yanmega/Beautifly and something like a Braviary/Skarmory/Starraptor/Unfezant/Sigilyph/Swoobat/Xatu/Swanna/Crobat/Honchkrow to finish it off, would have fit her more. Just gotta make some nice sets and it should work out.

    Her team right now is just a complete 180 of what her character seems to suggest.

    It's because I like to imagine the leaders doing activities with their Pokemon in their free time, I can totally see Shelly reading books with her team. Julia blowing stuff up and having coffee with hers. Charlotte chilling out with her team and Luna playing hide and seek in the valley.

    Samson working out with his.

    But I don't see her current team giving shows in the circus with her, Noivern, Gliscor, Archeops, and Talonflame look way too aggressive and intimidating for that.

  3. I'd love to draw attention to the most obvious Absol in the game: in the introduction when ingame Ame is asking you some personal questions and introducing the PC to Pokemon. Ame sends out an Absol. And what happens within minutes of that event? The explosion at the train station.It's my personal theory that the Absol on the train is the same one we continually encounter as it is then tied to the catalyst of tragedy- the player him/her/xyrself.

    A few weeks ago there was this whole Absol Cover art where it was also brought up how awesome it would be if it were to show up before any disaster would strike. Even before that it would have been suggested as well.

    But I never realized that this was seriously a thing, Absol coming out of the Pokeball before the train got rekt.

    So that would mean.... The Absol showing up everywhere is Ame's Absol!!!

    WAKE UP, REBORN. AME KNOWS WHAT'S COMING EVERY TIME.

  4. Yanmega or Dragalge fit on any team, but since I like bugs I went for Yanmega.

    I've heard good things about Vespiquen but zero experience with it since it's so slow....

  5. I think it's also important to note that most people playing this game play on shift rather than set. This means that any player will have a literal HUGE "unfair" advantage over the computer. At this point in the game I'm hesitant to think that it's going to be possible to create a legitimately challenging trainer for people with this advantage without making uber strong pokemon.

    Now that I'm thinking about it I believe Ash had the option to switch his mons during gym battles as well from time to time. So it's not all unfair imo. If Ash van do it, we can too without feeling bad about it.

  6. Actually going by that logic any physical poison move should do some normal type damage to a steel type. Poison Jab, Gunk Shot, Poison Tail, Poison Fang, etcetera.

    But by that logic something like Wild Charge or Thunder Punch should do some normal damage to ground types.

  7. I'd love it if we'd at least see her fight, like overworld sprite with her Absol out against some grunt or even a Blake or Taka.

    Fingers crossed for a double battle thotho. Nothing major, just defending the great Hall together.

  8. How's that for a non-suspicious title?

    SO HOW DID Y'ALL FARE AGAINST CIEL?

    I'd like the full run down, your team, what you thought of her team, what strategy did you use?

    For me :

    I found her to be pretty easy. Her team really did not even come close to what I imagined for her to have. Where's the elegance? Where's the beauty? Very misleading.

    So, my team consisted of Whimsicott(47, still have to train it more), Gigalith(56,only there because Sturdy and Stealth Rocks), Dragalge(74), Galvantula(75), Swampert(75) and Houndoom(73).

    So I started off with Whimsicott against Togekiss, Stun Spore, it got hax, Leech Seed. Switch for gigalith, Togekiss still out sped, Gigalith flinched. Second round it got haxd again so I set up stealth rocks and have it a stone edge, plus hax and Leech Seed damage it went down. Out came Gliscor, so I switched into Houndoom, hoping to out speed. I did and landed not only a crit with Flamethrower, it got burned as well. Houndoom got KO'd by a crit from EQ I believe. Then I sent out Swampert, Ciel used a potion, I hit it with Waterfall, that went on for three rounds, Gliscor still alive, I go for another waterfall and that dumb git switches in her Talonflame! Like what? Takes massive SR damage of course, walks into a waterfall and goes down. It comes Archeops, I switch back into Whimsicott to sun it cuz this thing is fast, but the stun spore misses and it takes down Whimsicott. I send out Dragalge but it out speeds as well, I believe hitting an earthquake. I send out gigalith while I max revive Swampert, gigalith goes down and out comes Swampert. I manage to take it down with a waterfall as well. Back into gliscor, which also went down again to waterfall. Out came Altaria, so I healed Swampert up a little, then went for a rock tomb (good thing I found that tm in the water treatment center) which dropped the speed, after which an earthquake took it down. She really shouldn't take the flying part out of a flying gym.

    I forgot her 6th Pokemon tho. Was it Chatot or Arodactyl? Either way it probably went down to Galvantula.

    What's your experience with Ciel? Still stuck? Or all set for E16 with a fresh badge?

  9. If a situation like this were to occur in real life I would probably panic, say I'm going out to get some milk from the store and never return(like my father).

    In game however this option wasn't available so I saved progress, closed the window and went to get some milk at the store. Haven't played since.

    I think I kept the truth from het but if she didn't find out I'd have a serious talk with Titania about telling her. I have a feeling Titania was originally dating Florinia but thanks to the whole Amy deal it went wrong.

  10. I find this offensive, can we please stop generalizing?

    Maybe I should have mentioned that I too, am male.

    Don't let the name, avatar or signature fool you (the signature actually is a man as well)

  11. I honestly only changed the field once and that was by accident against Noel trying out Sludge Wave on my Dragalge. It wasn't until much later, when I was washing the Fairy Blood of my hands, that I knew what I had done.

  12. I ran into so much trouble with Maractus in the Desert Resort while playing black. Spamming Acupressure until it was too hard to beat it.

    But Florinia now has a Cottonnee again? Where did Grottle go? Does she still have the Desert Field tho?

  13. Interesting suggestions!

    I've tried the gym battle a few times, and I've gotten to the point where I can semi-reliably kill 5/6 of their pokemon (rock tomb ftw) ...until the last one shows up.

    Any suggestions for dealing with it? I initially thought about Dragalge, but I realized their pokemon has a counter move.

    My Swampert Earthquaked it. It loses it's flying type upon Mega evolving huehue.

    Poison and Steel are VERY handy against it tho.

    Do you have a Stealth Rocker tho? One of hers does not take very kindly to it, especially if it also switches INTO an incoming Waterfall. Dumb bitch.

    But simply put any pokemon with Prankster and at least 2 usefull status moves is a great addition to your team. Meowstic, Liepard, Sableye, Volbeat and Illumise each have their great points, but I prefer Whimsicott because aesthetic.

  14. Honestly In the first part of E15 our partner did almost all the work for me. Damn that thing they have is a BEAST.

    Anyway, may I suggest Whimsicott and Galvantula for some type coverage?

    Whimsicott - Prankster Leech Seed/Stun Spore/Moonblast/Hurricane or Giga Drain. Great support, mine was level 47, playing a MAJOR part in the last gym battle.

    Galvantula - Compoundeyes Bug Buzz/Electroball/Thunderwave or Discharge(thunderwave isn't needed much with Prankter Stun Spore from Whimsicott)/Filler move such as Spider Web, Agility, or HP Ground

    Galvantula has great Speed and Special Attack, and has been a big help right from the start.

    Dragalge IS a good mon though. Not only is it VERY handy this episode, It is a Special Wall for a longer period of time. Fairy Types? where? Sludge Wave the fuck out of them.

    Adaptability is a killer ability, Dragon Pulse is still decent STAB neutral coverage, It's movepool is pretty nice and it can be your Surf Slave.
