I hope he does Orphanage I, Victoria III and Shelly's Gym in the same episode, since it's only two fights and a gym. I wonder how he'll react to training so hard, only to find a whole gym of trainers between him and the boss. Regardless, my bet remains as it was: Tyranitartube will likely lose to Shelly. If he does not, with that kind of luck and/or skill he could easily beat the whole of episode 18, and I look forward to seeing him try. Otherwise....The Bookworm Devours All.
-
Really? Oh jeez. I personally haven't gotten there yet, so I'm kinda relying on hearsay. I don't know how far the Penta Op got, but Shofu quit after glass factory, so if t3 gets past that I will be very impressed indeed. Also, at this rate, he could end up being the first poketuber to cover E19 content, which makes me very excited indeed.
-
@ToDie Idk, he may still lose to Solaris (which is fine w/ respect to his auto-lose policy), which means he'll get Julia instead. Idk though, we have no idea what his team will be at that stage of the game.
-
@SansTheSkeleton I think if he can beat Shelly he can beat the game. Serra's no fun but her field is luck-based and T3's been getting nothing but jackpots so far. Aya's Nidoqueen is a problem, and she can get really bad if t3 kills Toxapex, but IMO Shelly's harder. Like, Rado+ might get him if he doesn't EV train, but given dream's help I think he will. Charlotte and Terra will be super hard though if he doesn't get the right strat/team right off the bat.
-
@ShogokiX True, he's only got about 20% of an orphanage to get through before the gym lol
-
@ShogokiX Technically he has to visit the orphanage, get introduced, beat orderly John, beat the gym, then come back for the raid.
-
Ah, that's fair. You're really doing a lot for this run, thanks!
-
Character profiles? From what I've seen you mostly offer your wisdom via T3's discord, but if you wanted to mirror them here that'd likely be some pretty valuable content for new players.
-
Plus the gang storyline, and beneath the Grand Staircase. I have to say, I think it will be amusing to see him react to that last bit, both with Sirius pontificating fueling his theories and him immediately leaving Aster and Eclipse to their fate.

Me: Luna's a kid (at least, she's not an adult), and as a 20-something it costs $0 for me to be normal about it.

Luna is an adult, though. She's at least 18, Ame said she might actually even be a little older - though she also said that Luna is younger than Taka, who is 22.

I need 3 more Turtwig in like 10 minutes to make it by the end of community day. (This is abt pokemon GO). It wouldn't be nearly as hard if my house wasn't a GO desert.
-
You know, with all the grinding and EV training I did before Radomus, I expected him to be just a little easier. As it was, I beat him with only one Pokemon remaining, my Drapion. Oh well, at least nothing got too out of hand.
-
"Aaaaand, Con-GRAAAA-tulations on besting one of the premier chess players in the world! Who does it feel to have claimed such a spectacular victory?"
My most recent match with Radomus was pretty neato- as a Type Mirror, it was pretty much bound to be, ya know?
SpoilerI spent the first 8 rounds letting him to make the battle go on his rules, with my mostly speedy team with against his slow one in Trick Room. The match was actually pretty even in the stage, as my one slow mon (the oranguru that messed up Dittoceus earlier) managed to nab a couple Ancient Power boosts while his malamar picked up a couple Superpowers. By the time the Trick Room wore off, both of us only had three pokemon left.
There was just one catch: I had managed to get my own malamar out in time. Since my raichu was already looking a little beat up, I knew that both his metagross and malamar would aim to finish that off, and since his squid was at either +2 or +3 Attack and packing Night Slash, that was almost guaranteed to do the job. But my malamar carries Topsy-Turvy for this precise sort of situation- I inverted the malamar's boosts (Contrary? What's that?) and set up my own Inverse Field in a single go, raichu somehow managed to survive Metagross' attack (still not sure how that happened
), and the rest of the match was a massacre from there.
Fair warning, though: you're at the point where the exp. curve decides to be utter shite, leading one to be slightly underlevelled for the next Gym even after a fair bit of grinding, and severely underleveled for the one after that to boot (at least, from my experience). Turns out that it's a bit tough to beat a boss whose levels are 6 over yours across most of the team, and whose ace is 6 levels higher than that...
-
Yeah, I've been worried about that. The EXP curve is always the bane of a pokemon fangame's existence. I'm definitely shaving off some rotation members so I have less grinding to do later. Unfortunately that probably means Klinklang is getting the boot. My one spot of hope is that Volcarona should sweep the next two gyms, provided I can find an opportunity to set up. I'm legitimately scared of Charlotte, though. I have prankster weather/fake out/etc....but is that enough? Can Flygon truly turn the tide? I might train some more rock types up just for this.
-
Honestly, the first time I've played Reborn, I experienced it with a Flygon in my team. At this time, Charlotte was easier to defeat than I expected. Using Earthquake along with Rain Dance would make this fight less difficult to handle. You mainly have to meditate on the ideal team member to defeat Rotom-H since this mon in particular is clearly the less frail of Charlotte's team.

If any of you hear "Eye of the Tiger" in the distance today, that's the sound of me EV training every single mon I own.
"Rising up, back on the street.
Took my time, took my chances~"
-
Beat El in the Citae d'Astrae fight. I was using Prankster/Perish Song Murkrow so it wasn't that hard, but I loved the associated story beats, especially with mx. spoiler and the foreshadowing for the reborn restoration project. For now, I've gotta EV train for Radomus.
-
I... don't think I've ever had to cheese Dittoceus, now that I think about it. My first run just had my flygon and chesnaught beat it into submission IIRC, and my current one saw Prankster!Light Screen into oranguru spamming Calm Mind until the "deific" mimic's false Judgements barely did a thing anymore.
I was pretty surprised that the second happened the way it did, though- the oranguru was freshly caught and thus was 5 levels lower than the rest of team at the time, never mind the lack of EVs. Don't mess with them apes, man...
Anyway, good luck with your upcoming 'chess tournament'! Seems like you've quite the nasty foe at the end~
-
Huh, funky. Come to think of it, I do remember my Flygon eating a hit from it, but it wasn't EV trained, so it took like 70%, and the perish count was already at 1 after that turn anyways...
I'm definitely excited to try Oranguru out at some point. I could pick it up now, or just grind up my own M!Meowstic and keep using it for screens+psy support.
I'm honestly excited for Radomus. My mystery egg Larvesta is finally about to evolve!......too bad it dies to a single chess!psychic. Apart from that, I have 2 ghost and 2 dark STAB mons, plus Crobat to help take out Gardevoir at the end, so I'm not concerned.
Anyway, thanks for the good wishes! You have a great day too!

Yeah Jesus Christ he barely even glanced at it. He read wayyy less than the desert field. Maybe he's trying to "avoid spoilers"?
-
Just got dunked on by fern in adventuring woods, immediately after dunking on Noel. Noel I thought would be easier considering how much grinding I did, but most of that went to Larvesta anyway lol. I was a little surprised when they called me out for burning the field, so I guess I'll use Sludge Wave next time.

@Autumn Zephyr That's super cool. Skill Link is one of my favorite abilities because of how it completely warps movepool building.
@Clutterfunky No, there's no way to save that last officer. Talking to the Growlithe looking where he fell counts for the quest, though.

@GreatNinjaWhat was your strategy? Did you just do the magma quest and lean into the rain with Floatzel? Because SS Anorinth is a MENACE. I don't see how a new player can get past the rain and the fast rock slides so easily, not to mention the constant struggle bug spam.
-
That was one heck of a fight! It's interesting to note that with Stockpile on Belly, all but one of his mons are setup-based. I want to be optimistic, but Shelly's next up, and she's imo one of the game's hardest fights. I can't wait to see T3 meet the orphan crew or the gang sidequest, though.
-
Lin's theme is a slowed down version of GxC's Cynthia remix. That's TERRIFYING. I LOVE IT!
-
Just like all the slowed down soundtracks of her
By the way, I have a list of all the other half speed themes if you're intersted:
Beryl Ward Bridge ----> Atmosphere- Explore (Speed x0.5)
Dr. Connal's theme when you meet him for the first time --> Battle- Countdown (Speed x0.5)
Amaria's Gym (Underwater) --> Atmosphere- Mirage (Speed x0.5)
Radomus' theme when you meet him for the first time --> Atmosphere- Rush (Speed x0.5)
Obsidia Slums --> Atmosphere- Dark Crystal (Speed x0.5)
Steelix's Cave --> Atmosphere- Crystal (Speed x0.5)
Devon Corp (Where you get trapped during Ame's raid by Lin) --> Atmosphere- Paranoia (Speed x0.5)
If you have Audacity, you can easily reduce the speed of it and hear the alternate versions!
Hope this was useful ^^

TFW you accidentally hit the speed mode button and speed through a critical plot choice

Volcarona: I'm a solid OU Mon who doesn't need any help
Big top arena: I'm about to Improve this mon's whole career
-
Bennet challenges you as soon as you come through the wall. Now I'm going to lose to a fucking MASQUERAIN. If I could just. Choose the right damn lead. That would be really nice. I guess if nobody does that, the extra mirror damage is meaningless, but.....
-
-
Looks like we are in the same boat. Bennett also made me bad during my own Monotype Run. If you have a Greninja in your team, you can still OHKO half of his team by using Smack Down. Sadly, it seems like there's not a bunch of Dark Pokemon who have Rock Type moves in their learnset. At least, not in this part of the game

Stayed up until 11 to grind Vibrava to 47 for Boomburst. Chrysolia is so great for offensive EV training, and now Flygon is my fastest team member and has a top 3/top 2 attack stat...I am very satisfied.
-
I got a Beldum from an egg in Pokemon Go! Metagross is my favorite pokemon, I'm totally ecstatic!!!
