  1. We could be rematching Randomus with his new Lugia (Multiscale), or Shade with Giritina, if you want to begin thinking of legends Doubles fighting Sapphira and Heather, though... that'd be fun.
  2. > lava-ridden draconic chambers First there was a cave. Then PULSE Heatran came along.
  3. We've heard this a million times Caz shhhh. What inspired Desolation? other than Reborn/Rejuv/etc. 'Allo, Caz! Welcome to Reborn, for the first time!
  4. Self-insert fanfiction about me in the Pokemon world being forced to write a self-insert fanfiction about me in the Fire Emblem universe being forced to write a self-insert fanfiction about me in the Tales Of universe being forced to write a self-insert fanfiction... The sad part is, I would actually seriously write that before other ideas
  5. You can use Mist, Misty Terrain, Grassy Terrain, Electric Terrain, and soon Topsy-Turvy on gym leaders, which, let's be honest, ranges from just removing their benefits, to crippling them entirely. North Aventurine Woods. It eats your thyme. Luna's Bandersnatch usually destroys her field. Aventurine Woods. It eats your lime. The selection of prizes from the game corner is... lacking. No clue what would get added, but maybe something for E16 Reborn? South Aventurine Woods. It eats your rhyme. It... really doesn't feel like Terra contributes anyhting to Reborn. I'm guessing it's related to the stance on her character, though. Does that mean she's a Budew?
  6. Bracket 2:Alicia / Lucifer / Ariel Of course Ariel would make sure to take xyr sceptre with xyr to Bracket 2. Good to see the changes were agreeable to the leaders, too.
  7. 'Allo Ray! Welcome to Reborn! If you are interested, check out the Showdown! server; there's always someone on, and there's usually a conversation going on worth joining into!

    Hello.

    'Allo Joseph, and welcome to Reborn! ...Yep, bland welcome, I know
  9. Restarting over the hiatus. Looking for recommended changes to improve coverage and make wall-breaking more consistent. NOTE: Comments along the lines of "Remove X it sucks" do not help me at all. (I know where that comment will be directed at -.-) EV/Nature/Item setup varies battle-to-battle, so not posting that.
  10. Late... early welcome? Something like that? I won't wish you a good time, though, since I know you have had (and will still have) one! Now to go see this "terrible" writing you claim to have done, and see just how "not-actually-terrible" it is, if everyone else is right.
  11. Reborn Hardcore Bug Mono commence. Julia and Corey, have mercy.

      I believe in you.

      Use the rain... just like Shelly.

      Rain's boring. Just use the sun to burn everything. Oh wait, this isn't a Fire mono anymore :P

      Just realized I'll have some coverage on Corey, and Julia... can just... leave.

  12. ...Wait a second; I just realized something. Reborn city gets redone, but no building looks like that. One building is completely demolished, almost beyond recognition (not counting the umpteenth fallen apartment). Is this... dare I say it... Adrienn's Gym? That balcony would make sense for having Misty Terrain in effect, with how Coral ward is.
  13. Shade? He probably runs the place in his free time; you know, as a hobby or something.
  14. Back in Gen 2, Hypno had a pretty shiny. Well, if eye-bleed magenta counts as pretty. Gengar, Garchomp, and Vivillon all suffer from "too-similar-to-normal-form" syndrome. Shedinja almost joins them, with its Gen 6 sprite looking ever more like its normal one. And, just to say it (though it's been said before) GREEN AND PIIIIINK. Right next to Gold/Yellow for the most Shinies, I think. Might do a count.
  15. Well, a cafe. Now to see which kind it is: a shop, a battle area, or a Kalos-talk-to-NPCs-have-no-fun-and-add-a-billion-of-these-with-their-own-names cafe. I'm leaning toward a mix of the former two. Do they sell deodorant? "The Spyce" isn't old yet. In Episode 17...
  16. You forgot that the puzzle resets if you leave the room, which you need to do to drain lava, so you can plug the drain with a Crustle and drain water into the basin. All of that for 10% of the road. Or just an empty 3x10 corridor where someone says "What, you thought this'd be hard?"
  17. Balls, hills, and cliffs. Calling it now, ...Oh dear. Ooohhh dear. That's going to be a nightmare, for sure. EDIT: inb4 just a small, straight corridor.
  18. You forget her near-wordless correspondence with Team Meteor on Route 1 (North Aventurine Woods), I think.
  19. A good Volcarona literally destroys this section of the game, gym-wise, especially Samson and Ciel. That aside, your team is in good position to handle everything else Reborn will throw at you. Icicle Crash is special on Glitch terrain, too. Wait... that reminds me... Glitch Terrain Mewtwo. As far as I know, you've got basically nothing that can deal good damage (Volc's Bug move is physical, Crunch is Normal, no constant damage effects). Then again, never used half of those in Reborn, or been on-level at that point, so give it a whirl; you'll prolly be fine.
  20. From one to se7en, what is your favorite generation thus far, if you have one?
  21. Basically any FPS; never really got into them, still not incinerated in them. Yes, I've given them a chance, but... I'll be honest, generally unimpressive to me, especially since the later ones have an online multiplayer focus (which I generally dislike). Can't really name one worse than the rest, though.
  22. Spinel Town Museum, Second floor... right? (if you don't recognize the name, 5 badges) Never used it, but I thought there was a scientist there who said the place was public-funded, so his research was for everyone, and it just so happened to be Fossil revivification. EDIT: Did NOT look at the topic location, my bad
  23. It's a pinned topic in Gaming > Pokemon Fan Club: http://www.pokemonreborn.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=5663
  24. Only going to say that the "older players get the good stuff" only really applies if you assume that everybody cares that somebody else has something they don't/can't get at this time, such as Gyarados, or soon Metagross and Magnezone. Reborn LPer has Magnezone, okay; I understand that, but... Even if Metagross is the pseudo Steel, it's still... just Metagross. And as for Gyarados, literally everyone I know irl has used that before in-game, in basically every game: it gets old. It works, yes, but it's the same concept as a starter solo—you use it, abuse it, rinse, repeat for the whole game. Monotypes and Nuzlockes like a larger variety, due to their own restrictions, but if they, with all of their rules can struggle through this with or without foreknowledge, people can wait another episode for their favourite/prized mons. Why do I say that, you definitely ask? It might be fun to a relatively small audience to use the same pokemon over and over again, but once you get out of that... group(?) you begin to notice how cut-and-dry the game is without variety. Reborn isn't nice like the main games; you use what you get, or you use what you get. If you really want that one 'mon, well, that's what exploring is for (and if they're smart, they'll have an idea about how long to wait for it to appear). I hate Vanilluxe (still do), but by golly, it's an Ice-type, and it's right there. If you really do not like your options, then you explore and find new ones. Eventually you'll find something you like, or you'll grow to like what you have. Not going back through and sorting that mess so it makes more sense before sleep/work. I'll do it tomorrow or something. Never understood why Electivire is marked as strictly unobtainable (instead of limited event): Elekid [mystery] egg, Electrizer after rebuilding the stairs... Hides legitimate Electivire behind 7th street
  25. Zebstrika gets a fairly good Special movepool, and Lightning Rod can help it get the extra SpA it needs, but... it really doesn't get the moves to make the most of its 100 Attack; why not start by bridging that gap a little with 80 + 10 SpA, as it already has enough speed to move before any non-scarfed Ground-type, bar Dugtrio, Arceus, and Greninja (not that the lattermost will necessarily be that). Afterward, give it two attacks; first, Ice Beam (by TM). Before you say "That makes no sense," look at what gets it almost nonsensically: Raticate, Tauros, Furret... Normal types with no real connection to Ice-types, and hardly any reason to want this move. I'll admit, though, the lack of Electric types that get it does make for a shaky argument (Arceus, Chinchou, Lanturn). If not, give it Energy Ball, for the same reasons provided for Luxray by TimTim. Then (assuming that even happens .-.) give it Dark Pulse, a move recently given to another Electric-type that has even less reason to have it: Helioptile (Named based off the sun, give it Dark Pulse). Failing that, given my lack of anything else to put here, Synchronoise, one of the worst powerful Psychic attacks. "Using an odd shock wave, the user inflicts damage on any Pokémon of the same type in the area around it" Oh, look, the late TM34 makes an appearance. (Only saying this one because I know Focus Miss wouldn't fly... or would it?) Now to think of how to argue for a better physical movepool instead, because Sap Sipper. Surprise Attack does not make as much sense with boxing as the argument, outside of a blow from the corner of your eye; Knock Off is more likely.
