good shit, the search function was... mediocre before, I hope it actually does what it's supposed to now :c Edit: i think it still doesn't pick up archived threads, though. Any chance this can ever be changed, or are those gawn from the search for good?

My favourite would have to be the factory field. And I'm gonna be honest, it's for no other reason than because Klinklang turns into a terrifying monster on it that takes down everyone and everything. Good lord there's nothing more satisfying than seeing your most treasured 'mon going on a rampage. ...Also, aesthetic. Second favourite is the Glitch field, for the fun throwback to Gen I mechanics it is. I just find it thoroughly enjoyable to fight on and to be challenged to bend my mind into forgetting about some of the changes the games have gone through over the years. It's a bit of a reverse of what it was like to grow up and watch the game mechanics change a little bit with each generation. And it's just flat out fun to think up strategies, like how to abuse the undone stat splits or the limited type chart.

I've got a Helix Fossil to spare if you want it and still need one~ Just PM me so I know to wait for a trade request

Closest estimates we got for some (that I actually remember lol) are: Terra 23, Arc 24, Luna 18, Charlotte 14, Laura 18, Saphira ~20, Cain 15, Anna & Noel 12, Radomus ~40, Taka 22 IIRC Aya and Hardy are 16 and so is Fern or was Fern 15 smth like that? But don't quote me on that one In-game Lumi is 12, Eve is "a bit older", Zero is 21 Blake is apparently in his late 20s I swear Ame also answered the ages of El, Solaris and Sirius, but tumblr's search function is hell :') But if you consider Taka being early twenties and Luna being 18 that's probably a good reference. And I /know/ Shelly and Heather's ages were stated at some point, I just don't remember, but iirc they're around the twins' ages The player character's age is technically not set because Ame didn't want to dictate what age we view them as, but she considers them adults around 18, yeah

I mean, Lin actually dying right there and then would've made things too easy on us, wouldn't it? ;D Would've been mighty early for the "big bad" to bite the grass, so it was kinda predictable that something about it was too good to be true.

Trying to predict what's gonna happen with Taka in the route where he doesn't die in the desert is tricky for sure. I think so far the most popular theory is that he is going to die in both routes, and that the difference will be that in the desert route he gets to die free and finally able to be himself for just a little bit while he's with you, whereas if he survives, he'll continue to be with Meteor and ultimately die as "one of them", never able to break free from the life he's bee forced to live. I guess it makes sense and it's a fair assumption, but personally I've kept my main save file on the route where he survives for now. I actually am curious to see his possible interactions with other Meteor members still, and I'm not ruling out the possibility that if he dies regardless, it may still be in a situation where he's helping the player out. It seems very likely that the desert route ends up being the "better" ending for him, but I'm not yet convinced that whatever the other route holds won't also be interesting. But on a less plot related note.. yeah, sad to see Taka go :c The set-up was pretty harsh, letting you explore the desert with him and getting to see him happier than ever before, and suddenly he's gone. That said, I don't see Tania as the one to blame for this. Ultimately it was all Lin. Tania's attitude certainly doesn't help to endear her to everyone, especially when she's involved in a popular character's death, but at the end of the day, she didn't mean to hurt Taka - she meant to hurt Lin. And Lin seems to have a habit of setting up people to hurt each other. She showed that throughout the entire previous episode already, and what happened in the desert is just a continuation of that. I feel like blaming Tania for what happened is about as fair as, say, blaming Victoria and Arclight for fighting you in E16. ...Less so, actually, because at least the latter two knew what was going on and who they were faced with.

@Ice you didn't tell me you have a twin what's up with that You like Scolipede, you like HGSS... you're good to stay, welcome c: What kinda "useless stuff" do you collect? You've got my interest.

You sound like a good person. I like you. Please stay. Nevermind actually ..Just kidding. Welcome to Reborn c: Ya should check out our showdown server some time if you haven't already. Bit more quiet than the discord, but if you already go on showdown regularly, might as well join us!~

Ayy, I started with Blue as well! Grass is a good type, I can respect grass. It's definitely one of the most fun to use in monotype IMO. Welcome to Reborn! Kinda neat to see that we've got people joining for Rejuv now, aha. Naturally I'd jump on the wagon encouraging you to give Reborn another try, but there's a bunch of other games floating around that you could check out as well, so really, it's not like there's a shortage of options~

>Oh I know the lore of the game and the league fairly well, this should be oka- >questions about side quests/events I have done maybe 4 side quests in my entire life I didn't even know half of those were a thing rip 72% lolol This was pretty fun, though!

After you beat Florinia, she tells you to visit the Jasper Ward next to help out with the plant problem over there. Jasper is accessible through the Peridot ward (the one that Julia's gym is in), so you simply go all the way north in Peridot and walk through the gate. (Don't confuse the Jasper gate with the gate at the end of the train tracks - that one's closed!) The city itself still looks pretty awful even after you got rid of the PULSE in Obsidia, it's just the weird plants that are gone^^ Edit: Dang that was some timing on our responses lol.

Saphira: "You like revenge, right? Everybody likes revenge. Well, let's go get some!" Lin: "I've got a surprise for you after this next test. Not a fake, tragic surprise like last time. A real surprise, with tragic consequences." PC: "Okay, yes, it's a trap. But it's only way through. Let's just do it." El: "I thought about our dilemma, and I came up with a solution that I honestly think works out best for one of both of us."

Hmm, this is a tricky one, re: 'same disease'. Lumi's diary does say that "now mama has gotten very sick, too", implying that they lost their father to some sort of sickness. But we never actually find out in-game what exactly was the cause of their father's death. All we know is that Lumi was afraid that her mother would "leave [her] like papa did" - which can mean just about anything from "I don't want my other parent to die as well" to "I don't want her to die early, too" to "I don't want her to die the same way that my father did". And while the mentions of the "polluted city" and moving to Ametrine certainly seem to imply that the smog in the city was detrimental to her mother's health, I'm reluctant to assume that both of them suffered the same diagnosis as the father. Lumi mentions that the disease she and her mother have "ran in the family", and that the actual surprise was the early onset, rather than the fact that she got sick ("nobody thought it would happen so soon") - which would imply that it is genetic. The odds that her father had the same condition would be rather low in that case.

In the exact scenario you mentioned, I've always interpreted that what happens is that you tell Amaria ... well, exactly what happened. That Titania thought you read her diary and didn't believe you when you said you didn't, so she talked to you about its contents. You would be telling Amy all the things you just found out, but since you said that you didn't actually read the diary yourself, she'd probably still want to check it out to learn the details. Basically, you go "So... Titania just told me she's faking the relationship" and Amy goes "Is that so? Let's take a look". Originally the scene with Titania's diary didn't even give you a choice not to read it. It was a relatively recent addition. Previously you would be unable to continue the plot of the game until you went and read the diary, so the whole scene is kind of working around that now by making it so that Tania doesn't believe you. Since the scene has to end in Amy finding out the truth and jumping off the waterfall regardless of your choices, there's no timeline in which you don't learn about the diary's contents, and no timeline in which Amy believes you if you claim nothing is going on.

Their main purpose seems to be to unlock postgame content, but I recall reading through the neat guide ICSW made and noticing that [E17] So it seems that your scores can already affect the game in some way, even if it's not anything huge yet

>it's midnight and I'm already asleep >phone is actually charged ...Yeah that's how I'd realize I'm just in a cheap nightmare and wake up. I'm such a champion at forgetting to charge my phone that there's a good chance I'll randomly see a missed call twelve days later I guess that person could leave me a voicemail, but I feel like the message loses its dramatic impact if I'm hearing it on a fine monday morning while brushing my teeth. I mean, it's a fucking monday morning and I'm about to go to class; hearing someone telling me they want me dead would sound like an invitation at that point because honestly? Big mood.

Tuna pizza with onions and champignons is the way to my heart tbh

I'd argue against Fern being pride because it's very doubtful that he truly thinks himself better than the MC (or anyone). Ame has stated he's got a superiority complex, which, in her words, is " born out of feelings of inferiority. it’s just away of masking them." I've always seen Fern's theme as being about desperately trying to convince others and himself that he's as cool and talented and admirable as he poses himself to be. I don't think for a second that he believes he's that awesome - he's just incredibly desperate for people's attention without knowing how to actually make himself popular. I would say that Fern is more envy-like: His issue with the MC is that we have everything he wants to have. We're respected and well-liked (well, by a lot of characters at least) and talented (shhh, he doesn't know if you battled Solarischomp once or twenty times), we're (as of E16) hailed as a hero. We've got everything Fern wants. The same is, to an extent, also seen with his interactions with Florinia - notice how bitter he is that Rini's still got people admiring her and sticking up for her despite her attitude of not caring?

No worries haha, I meant that reaction jokingly. I honestly don't remember if I had issues with Shade in my mixed run, but I don't think so. I didn't think to take a consistent amount of screenshots the first time I played, so I don't even know any more what my team looked like at that point :c It's probably Charlotte who gave me the most issues in that one?

Who said you could roast me like that This was the flying team I went up against Shade with. (Well, that's them shortly after beating him, as you can probably tell from Pigeot being a level over.)

Shade. Could be that he felt the most annoying to me because I did a Psychic and a Flying run right after each other, but jfc he left me with a burning hatred for the Rotom line.

This poll reminds me of how much I enjoyed playing Pokémon Dash back then. I should hunt down a copy of that game some time, I always borrowed it from my cousin. It's such a great time killer while travelling. My first game was Blue~ Fave is Gold, though. Out of the spin-off games I enjoyed Conquest the most thus far. [youtube commenter voice] FIRST!!1!

Fern was set on fire five seconds after the picture was taken and you know it

>Klinklang Hi I already like you Looks like a nice selection of 'mons all in all, I'm sure you'll have little trouble with Devon! Wishing you much success c: Salazzle is incredibly fun to use imo. Which of those mons are your most used ones so far, out of curiosity? (And, of course, welcome to the forums~)
