Hiyo Zander, luckily I'm bored too, so let's see... My hardest and most frustrating battles were against Florinia (e12 version) and Charlotte, both on my first playthrough. I lost to these two so many times... ironically enough they were some of the easiest leaders on my current playthrough. The easiest leader ever for me was... Luna, during the playthrough just before my current one. I was lucky enough to get a Volcarona and tore through her 6-0 (it was the first time I managed this against a Reborm leader). The most epic and enjoyable duel was possibly against Samson, on my current run. I expected to beat him with relative ease but his Acrobatics spamming gave me hell. I had only my ace left alive at the end. My current team is made of Espeon, Absol, Clawitzer, Crobat, Froslass and Magneton. Notable former members include Nidoking and Leafeon.

Zero chill xD Remember kiddos, "time you enjoy wasting isn't wasted time." - John Lennon (among other people)

Maybe something similar has already been done in canon games (I haven't played all of them) but I'd like to see an outdoors route plunged in permanent darkness because of some legendary mon or artificial disaster. Sort of like the Untended Graves in Dark Souls 3. Other than that, I'd love a huge stairway or elevator reaching into space. Like a floating bridge in starlight =3 (a virtual cookie for anyone who gets the reference)

Congrats Gengar! It's funny because I recently faced Charlotte on my latest run. She used to be really tough, so I was expecting her to give me absolute hell, especially since my team wasn't particularly built to beat her... ... turns out I obliterated her xD Oddly enough, this time around she was the easiest leader since Shelly for me. I'm a tad too late, but for anyone interested, setting up Rain Dance and spamming Water Pulse with Clawitzer works wonders against her.

Doesn't look bad at all! I find the haircut somehow has a Jojo's Bizarre Adventure feel to it =p

Hiyo, welcome to Reborn! Weird people to your right, nice people to your left, weird AND nice people somewhere inbetween, plus your daily dose of gaming/artistic/random/philosophical/political/nonsensical discussions here and there! Enjoy your stay and have fun~

I haven't watched that many good anime (yet), but here's an approximate top 5: 1 - FMA Brotherhood 2 - Puella Magi Madoka Magica 3 - Gosick 4 - SAO (mainly the Phantom Bullet and Mother's Rosario arcs) 5 - Ghost In the Shell: Standalone Complex

The Apophyll theme and Chrysolia theme are both excellent and stand out as music that successfully conveys a change of mood and atmosphere in the game. When you step out of Reborn City for the first time, it has to be impactful. When you finally get out of the Railnet after hours of tense gameplay and tragic events, it has to be impactful as well. Thanks to these two themes, I think both moments work. I loved the title screen theme in previous episodes, but sadly it was axed. The new Leader theme grew on me and now I like it a lot. Shade's previous battle theme was perfect. Spooky as it needed to be. The new one is fine but doesn't hold a candle to it imo. Routes 1, 2, 3 and 4's themes are all great. My vote for the best among all these goes to Route 4's relaxing tranquility. There are so many awesome pieces of music in this game. Music is a very important part of any game to me. Kudos to Ame and GlitchxCity, as well as all the people who worked on it whom I may not know of, for doing it right! EDIT : how could I forget the Wasteland. wubwubwubwub

Welcome to the forum, Solviera! Your intro is nice. It put me in a good mood. Carry on, magnificent Rebornian ^^

Well, that was creepy and kinda cute at the same time. I'll just take the aforementioned post as a compliment I guess \_('.')_/

Welcome on board Azzy, enjoy your stay~

I've always found the Holy Magnet to be a must-have in Reborn. Sheer Force Nidoking helps a lot as well, although I loved it way before Reborn. The one Mon this game made me discover and love is probably Gulpin. Surprisingly useful against the first few gyms and can take on Pulse Tangrowth alone, no sweat (but don't tell that to Ame or the little dude will be axed and pushed back to Victory Road =p)

Hi Tunes, welcome to Reborn! Enjoy your stay and don't worry, most members here don't bite

Hey, another fellow baguette. Welcome to Reborn Alex, enjoy your stay

It's fascinating how people take pride in being sorted into little boxes. The smaller the box, the greater the pride.

Welcome to Reborn! Enjoy your stay

Ghosts are sp00py though o.o What would you do to convince ICSW to send you boxes of chocolate covered pretzels?

Evi isn't kind to newcomers =p Oh, by the way, how did a cute Seal like you find his way on Reborn? Do you miss the ocean?

White is best! Don't quote this out of context tho

Would you rather date a skeleton or smooch a ghost?

There really isn't *one* perfect team that can solve any problem for you. Reborn is designed so that you'll have to try different strategies and line-ups before overcoming the toughest obstacles. All I can tell you is, a balanced team, with offense and defense, multiple typings that cover each other's weaknesses, status moves inflicting burn, paralysis etc. should get you far. As far as mons go, there are a few that you'll definitely want to consider, simply because of how excellent they are: Speed Boost Blaziken, Contrary Serperior, Sheer Force Nidoking, Crobat, Magnezone, Volcarona, Flygon just to name a few. Mons with the ability Sturdy can save you against very strong foes like Pulse mons or Leaders' aces. Focus Sashes too, but as far as I know there are only a couple. Leftovers and Black Sludge can never hurt, provided you have them. I'm not knowledgeable enough to tell you exactly what TMs and Move Tutors will help you a lot, but as Bafabon very rightly said, try to think outside the box, try new things, and the path to victory will become clear
