Odybld

Bed: Serra (and then I'll shove it to Bennett's face non-stop) Also: the redhead sisters Wed: Amaria (if only) Dead: Cal And as a lovely husband, I'd also like to get my family a dog. Fetch my newspaper, Fern! Eat canned food, Fern! Catch the tennis ball, Fern!

Just a tiny wee bit I'd like to add. The reactor room, the wasteland wall and the door there are reachable before beating Radomous, at least in 14.1.1. When Adrienn leaves from the Coral Ward and Radomous asks you to come or not to his gym directly, I declined. I roamed around looking for stuff and I found the path back to the wasteland, completed the strength puzzles and got the Y Key.

As of Pokemon that could appear a bit earlier in the game, I'd suggest some/any nice water pokemon. The only ones obtainable before Shelly are Golduck (1k coins), Azumarill (trading down from a Growlithe to it)... Bibarel and Ducklett?! God I hate that duck thing. Then come Chinchou and Carvanha, not exactly world beaters. At the same time, you can grab great fire type ones like Growlithe for free, Ponyta and Houndour for free and Vulpix after that bloody Klinklang. And you can have an artful selection of grass types evolving with evo stones, but with a high ceiling nonetheless starting from Budew, going to Oddish and Bellspout. So, more water types please. Also, the Gigalith + Trick Room against Charlotte could be resolved just by having Radomous hand out Psyshock or Psychic, the onle available damage dealing psychic TMs. I'd love that. As of the imbalance between starters, there are two ways to fight it. The first is, choosing a starter influences which starters you find later in the game. Split the starters in tiers and leave the ones picking Froakie or Torchic finding the worst of starters later in the game. That would also solve that thing of getting the same starter twice. The second way to fight starter imbalance is simply more checks and counters to them, especially in rival battles. I am a devoted Mudkip picker, and I absolutely can't do anything with it against Fern's grass type. Serperior is too fast AND too good defensively for me to try and either outspeed or OHKO it with Swampert, not to mention achieving both. Actually, Swampert is dead meat against any grass attack, and a free Super to Ultra Potion against draining attacks. There are not any measures as good as grass vs Swampert for Blaziken. Greninja I guess has to kinda respect Victorias fighting types. Cain could maybe get a Tentacruel to kinda deal with Blaziken, and Fern could get an Exeggute. It's not as if Greninja and Blaziken help the player in the early game to take away things like money or items right off the bat. Put the 'Karp back in. 50.000 coins.

The thing is, Sentrets don't appear where you're looking for them. You can catch them in Obsidia Park post-Tangrowth. I'm not sure you can get them in the version of the park when Tangrowth is active. So you better have to KO that thing first.

I personally really like getting a Psyduck in the Onyx Arcade (no need for Voltorb flipping, the scattered coins are more than enough) and grinding the heck out of it against the Jasper/Malchous Beedrills to make it a mixed attacker. It learns Zen Headbutt which is really useful against Corey, Kiki and Aya, and also Aqua Tail at 32 just before evolving. But there are really few water pokemon in the early part of the game.

Whoops, you got me. I have to say, I make that mistake frequently. Well, english is neither my native tongue nor the first foreign one I learned, so I gladly allow myself the luxury of these cute mistakes. Being Ace members, I'd like to wish you to have, amongst others, a good time in that sweet hi-class nightclub in Obsidia. Especially with Shade making a guest appearance on the decks.

Hello everyone! I'm glad to meet you in this wonderful space. I'm Odybld. The first half of my nickname refers to my real name, the second half to the rather unfortunate fact that I'm going bold although I'm in my early twenties. I joined 'cause I really enjoy playing this game (at least when not grinding like crazy, which I'll have to do soon, yet again. If you want to know some things about me, I'm european and I'm a student. If my presence on the board, or lack thereoff, untill now, reveals something, it's that I like flying under the radar, keeping quiet and using stuff (in this particular instance, this very forum) to my gain, searching and finding the stuff I want without writing anything or introducing myself. Also, as you can see in my profile, I have mistakenly written on the status field instead of the search field a couple of times already. Jasper. Quick claw. Blablabla. As of the game, it's the first pokemon game I play since the Ruby and Sapphire years ago. I really love the gameplay, the degree of difficulty and the story that is woven throughout. I'm currently near the middle of the game timeline, just before battling Noel. The only thing that kinda sours me is the axing of the 'karp, to be honest. Also, the overload of child prodigies in various degrees. I mean, is there any capable trainer in that place over 30? And the design of the pokemon after gen3. Especially some evolutions of older pokemon. Magneton evolves into a flying saucer, for gods sake Magmortar looks like a huge wine barrel with two cannon barrels for arms. The barrel Pokemon, if it makes sense. Yup, I was long enough out of the business of playing pokemon games that they make me sound like a grumpy old man. It was all much better in my time! Well, that's about rambling. Once again, pleased to meet you, everyone!
