I just noticed that Reju v12 is a thing now so I want to play it. Can someone please give me brief recap of what happened in v11 and where am I supposed to go to start v12 story? I totally forgot everything. Thanks!

I don't mean to judge you, by all means play what you like. But since you're new here I think I should tell you what Reborn is about. Yes, Reborn is a hard game. However a part of the difficulty is that powerful pokemons, items and moves are not available until late in the game. Your team has 2 Pseudo-legendaries, a Volcarona and other powerful mons. With these the game won't be as hard as you expect. If you get a well-bred versions of these mons from a trader then there is no longer much of a point in playing a difficult game. These mons are only available late in the game for a good reason and the game is balanced around them not being available sooner. Reborn is about you struggling to beat all the challenges presented to you with what you can discover in the game. In the beginning you will never see a wild mon which is really powerful. This will make you think which mons could be decent for that part of the game and you will have a lot of fun with underappreciated pokemon that you would never even think of using normally (*cough* Kricketune *cough* Meowstic *cough*). Also it will make you search every nook and cranny because you never know where something good might be hidden. Many mons and items are hidden and it's exciting to discover something and think how you can use it effectively. If you have a powerful team from the beginning then you don't need to do this and therefore cut a lot of the excitement out from the game. Another part of the game is the fact that some enemies have very good coverage of their weaknesses thanks to clever combinations of their teams and also field effects (which you can turn against them). So even a good team won't be enough. Unless you have OP mons (that you would not get normally) you are almost certain to need a rotation of more than 6 pokemon to beat this game (I usually use around 10). And sometimes you will scrap an old mon and replace it with something new you just found. My recommendation: - If you want to play a game with your "dream team", play some different game. - If you want to play a difficult game, play Reborn or Rejuvenation (without trading). Still Reborn is not too difficult so in case you want a real challenge you can restrain yourself with additional rules. Personally I play Reborn with these restrictions which makes the game feel just right for me: - Always use Battle Style "Set" (otherwise I feel I have an unfair advantage) - Never use healing items like potions during battle.

I can't remember what difficulty setting is my current savefile on. I think I have used the highest at the begining but I'm not sure if I have lowered it later or not. How can I find out? Also how can I change the difficulty if needed?

More megastones in V11? Does this mean that mega ring is available now? If so, where?

Exactly what I needed! Thank you very much, you certainly revived some of my memories of the previous events. I'm going to play E11 now!

I just noticed ep 11 is out now so I'd like to continue the game from when I ended. However I can't really remember what happened in the last couple of episodes very well. Can someone give me a brief recap of the story of episodes 8 through 10 or so? (Don't spoil 11 pls.) Thanks! Also I'm somewhere in this big city called Grand Dream I think? Anyway there are a lot of districts and I can't find a way out. Let alone to whereever the heck is this Route 9 where I'm apparently supposed to go before loading E11 for the first time. I'm just completely lost. Send help. :-D

That only means those better mons should be pushed back too and some of the underrated ones pushed forward. But you can never have every pokemon in an ideal place. I'm simply saying that I'm quite satisfied where these particular mons are. Especially considering that if you really want them earlier, you can just trade.

Interesting topic. I can agree with some but not all of them. Mons: Ralts, Elekid, Magby, Magnemite - All of these are very powerful and very popular. Because of that I'm glad that they are pushed back to where they are at the moment. Gives more space to less popular mons. Ralts in particular should never be available before Samson. Glaceon - Yeah, this one I can definitely agree with. Glaceon is not by any means the strongest Eeveelution anyway. Considering that Reborn didn't change any evolution methods (as far as I know) I think moving the ice rock to the cave near Shade's Gym is the way to go. Oshawott / Litten - Yeah this makes sense. Rogenrolla - If it is in 7th street it means it's still available before Agate, right? If that's so then it was only pushed back by 2-3 gyms so it's fine. Sandile - Yep, Sandile in Tanzan is too early. I'd push it to like Route 2? I think the environment fits there. TMs: Frost Breath - Agreed! Nature Power - Agreed! Sludge Bomb - The suggested place is available right after Adrienn, right? That's way too early in my opinion. Shadow Ball - Maybe? I'm not completely sure how useful Shadow Ball is.

@seki108Thanks for the Ciel image!

Yay, Eeveelutions are dominating this contest! I fully approve. (Wanted to link that "Ciel of approval" image but can't find it anywhere. Anyone has it?)

Onyx Garden has Pichu event pre-restoration but no Pichu/Pikachu wild. It would make sense for Pikachu to be there after restoration but if the Pokedex is showing Pikachu there before you went to Agate then that's a bug imo.

Does anyone know which path is considered "better"? As in what the player should do? I only played the Reshiram path so far because I was lazy to go heal before battling Taka in WTC so I'm not exactly sure what is changed.

Hmm, this looks like an interesting challenge. I wonder what you'll do against higher ranked leaders when most pokes are unly available unevolved. Are you allowed to evolve your mons using stones and/or Rare Candies? Is your game also rigged to not gain EVs or is that allowed? Btw. the battles might be a bit more interesting to watch with attack animations on.

RAR is an archive format like ZIP. Download a software like 7zip to unpack it.

For me Samson and Aya were both pushovers in every single playthough. Kiki and Corey always were much more difficult. The reason why Kiki is much worse is that she has good defenses against both Psychic and Flying types. Samson can be beaten easily by just one decent psychic mon (such as Espeon). So yeah, definitely original leaders are better. The reserves are just newbies without experience.

During the story of the new episode there were almost no trainer battles and so my pokemon are hopelessly underleveled when I reached the Gym Leader. Can you recommend me any good place to train? Jan, if you're reading this, add some more trainers along the way, please.

In Cella's house when I go to the group near a wall the game takes over my movement trying to move me furthe up but the path is blocked by Melia or Erin.

When I hit the bell in Test of Strength from Agate at Axis High University I got HM 06. Then the clown said that if I hit the bell again he would give me a TM. But when I did he just gave me Dive again, no TM.

You saved my Decidueye! Thank you!!

Hi, can comeone please fix my Decidueye to know Spirit Shackle and not Steam Eruption? It got broken in V9 and I thought it would go back to normal later but she still knows Steam Eruption even in V10 with the patch. Game.rxdata

You can also take advantage of the field instead of destroying it. The field makes her very vulnerable to some threats like Magneton with Mirror Shot. When I tried it against her the Magneton was able to take out 5 out of her 6 pokemon. Then her Froslass singlehandedly decimated my entire team. :-D No need to ragequit. This game is supposed to be challenging. All the leaders have some trick up their sleeves. You need to do your reasearch about how the trick works (using field notes and bulbapedia) and how to counter it. That's what the challenge is about. If a leader seems too lucky with crit, flinch, confusion or whatever it usually means they have some buff you're not aware of - item, field effect, ability or some combination of these. Everything has a reason.
