  1. I think that pretty much confirms its ZEL. It could be Noel or Anna, but (if this person is going to die theoretically) unless their deaths were pretty good and meaningful that might just very well push me beyond the Titania Edge Threshold. Titania pushed the edginess of this game a bit for me, but if a child dies in a rather weak manner I'd be a bit annoyed. I appreciate Reborn for being dark, but never making me feel like its trying too hard (usually). ZEL has potential though. I mean, we just found out about how they were fused together, so I can see it going either way with them. Either we manage to separate them apart so they can live a peaceful life again, or they die.
  2. i just want my dusknoir, why does my internet decide to lag now. just let me connect to gts. please.

  3. Oklahoma: where you can take a nap while the weather is sunny, then wake up 20 minutes later to hear thunder. And then another 20 minutes later, you're all running inside, because hurricane force winds are sending hail and rain flying at dangerous speeds. And then your parents' garage door is ripped off its hinges partially by the wind speeds.

      I live in the Texas panhandle and I feel your pain.

  4. Former favorite uncle is officially a dick, got stuck working outside for 3 hours and nearly fainted, and also had to work 3 hours overtime. Just one of those days.

  5. the fact that there are earthquakes bigger than a 5.6 scares the heck out of me. We already deal with tornados. I'd rather not deal with eartquakes too.

  6. Any snake owners here that can tell me if jumbo sized mice are bigger than large mice? I think it's time to move my ball python up a size, and may end up buying some small rats in bulk if they're about the same size.

  7. If our main character died I'd drop this game like a hot potato. I think someone might just be leaving. I mean, Ame said there wasn't as much plot as there was in the last few eps, so it's more of a breather episode. And if someone really is dying, I honestly have no real idea who it would be at this point. Aside from maybe Taka and some baddies.
  8. Me: I hate creepy things Also me: Reads creepy things. At night. Instant regret

      Reading Creepypastas is only moderately creepy. Listening to them narrated by a decent guy is way worse, especially when you fall asleep, wake up in your dark living room and remember what the Creepypasta was about. :P

      I was reading stuff by a guy who collects haunted artifacts with his wife. Admittedly it's kind of comical because he just locks this one particularly malignant one in 'the box' because when asked to play nicer, it decided to nearly kill the guy with a TV.

      Uh, that's.. cool. And very comical indeed.

  9. Lets gush about our amazing Pokemon in Reborn! Whether you're doing a type-themed run, a nuzlocke, or just enjoy vanilla Reborn, I wanna hear about your personal favorite victories. I'll start with mine! I had been struggling against the Blake and Fern vs Player Character and Shelly battle. I was so frustrated because, ugh, ice types have never given me this sort of struggle before. My current strategy was, each time, slowly getting me closer to my victory. I was just hoping I'd get lucky at this point. I felt like this battle was gonna just end in another reset, and was feeling so stubborn at this point that I sent my starter, Serperior, out against Blake's ice types. I think he had about 3 or 4 left. Weavile was one of them, I remember that much. Shockingly, Serperior was able to survive Weavile, and strike it down with a Leaf Storm. And then, good ol Contrary took effect. Leaf Storm took out his next Pokemon, and then, suddenly, Cassius was invincible. Outspeeding, Giga Draining his health back, and to my eternal surprise, my grass type had beaten an ice type specialist. <3 My boy, I'm so proud of you.
  10. Hearing people talk about how gym leaders have gotten buffed in updates to Reborn makes me wonder if I'll one day be able to be like... 'i remember when ciel had a nightmare of an archeops' or smthn like that.

      nerfed, rather

  11. That makes sense. I'll probably be busy checking out the brand new wards and the NPC's now that everything's better! No hurry on my part to get on with the plot... I feel like everyone could use a breather after so much Meteor stuff. ... I'll admit, I'm slightly fearful for when we hit level 100. Like... is there going to be anything beyond that? Cos with most of my team on the cusp of 80 per Ciel's level cap, 100 only seems a short ways away.
  12. These updates usually go up to one... maybe 2 now, gyms, right? I know we're gonna be battling Adrienn and their fairy types, so if there's 2 gyms in this update, do we have an idea who the other gym leader is gonna be?
  13. Casually works on my Adrienn-destruction team. Typhlosion for the Klefki I know he has. Nidoqueen, Roserade, maybe Empoleon.

  14. Honestly I am of the group who are glad these guys got buffed. I mean, I'm sure I would have eventually beaten them anyways, but oi, Noel was a nightmare as he was now! I actually didn't have too much issues with Charlotte and beat her in like... 3 tries? I mostly fought fire with fire, and let the AI mess up so my Typhlosion could get an attack boost when they used a fire attack. Then I used explosion spam, + extrasensory and a few smoke screens.
  15. I'm a huge casual fan of Pokemon, and Reborn has made me want to tear out my hair lots of times. Noel, the Ice Gym Leader, and Ciel are specific examples that come to mind. But I beat episode 15! And I was so proud. The community here was very helpful and without their advice in some of my most frustrated, salty moments, I probably would have given up. Even though these are nerfed from previous installments, I still feel proud of myself for overcoming the challenges. I beat Noel on pure luck honestly. I changed my date so it wasn't a windy day bc screw that, let my Manectric take care of that hell-Swellow, then abused the hell out of my Noivern and contrary Serperior. Once my good ol boy Cassius gets a few Leaf Storms up, he's basically invincible and outspeeds everything and keeps his health with Giga Drain. It took me five days to beat Ciel. One day of mounting frustration and losing hope. Three days grinding against a single NPC in Agate to train a brand new member and buff up the rest of my team. And another day to finally catch enough luck to outspeed, crit, and whittle her down. Then the Altaria thing happened and I said screw it, and brought along Perish Song Murkrow next time and FINALLY beat her. The point is, don't give up! I know it sucks, I know you feel like the game is unfair and treating you badly, but you can do it. Maybe I could give some team advice?
  16. I have 3. One I've completed, and 2 duo runs that are incomplete cos this game burns me out! And yet I want to start a 4th file.
  17. 5:30 alarm did not go off. Thank goodness for moms.

      I know the feeling.

  18. Noel was harder? I had a nightmare with his Swellow alone. Hell-ow.
  19. Support for the other Reborn players who start new games they have trouble finishing. -high five-
  20. Just when I was thinking about how much I didn't want to work today bc it was gonna be slow, my manager texts me and says it's way too slow so I can just stay home. Amazing luck.

      First world problems while other people are scrambling for extra hours to make ends meet.

  21. How much of the Reborn league was role play and how much of it was real? reading the logs it's... a bit confusing.
  22. I can't go one gym battle without a minimun of 3 KO'd Pokemon, sometimes more. How does one even Nuzlocke this game. You Nuzlockers are crazy brave people.

      Myself considers doing a Nuzlocke in Reborn as a complete suicide, except for the most skilled of us.

      And I'm not even saying about Hardcore.

      I like this status.

      It strokes my sizeable ego.

  23. Learning about the old league this was all based on is kinda hilarious... I mean, obviously there's some awful things that happened but it also amazes me that his all went down in a single community and that Fern is hardly exaggerated.
  24. occasionally considers starting a playthrough of Reborn with a Chikorita.

      But you can get one relatively early-mid game through trade though; I mean, you can go for it, but it's not picked for the sole reason it's easily obtainable somewhere else, and with free egg moves no less.

      Shamitako

      I always do that

      People severely undervalue status in the main series and Reborn's level cap makes it even better

  25. Blern... Amazing. That's my new name for Blake. Blern. ... Is it wrong I'm hoping to see you rip into Titania after you get waterfall? >> I'd make my own ranty nuzlocke but I'm way too bad at this game. Maybe just a regular playthrough with commentary.
