[Episode 18 Rainbow Team]

I like this a lot. It really allows you to abuse some of the game mechanics to your advantage. Keep it up man

I'd say it's good that you have mimikyu on standby. Maybe get an ice type also since it's likely that one of the elite 4 will be

Heather, flying type 

So ice should be useful for both. As for recommendations, I'm a fan of alolan ninetales, but it depends if you EV train Speed and would rather speedy sweepers or set up trick room and sweep that way.

Yeah that's a really good idea. I like alolan Ninetails too and the typing would be good for the team. With those upcoming fights that will be useful, thanks!

Quite an all-out attack team. I understand you had trouble, as sheer power doesn't like to take hits back.

 

I think you should improve your offensive power in order to give no chances to your opponent to fight back. Just suggestions of course.

 

Flygon should run a Dragon Dance + Outrage + Dragonium Z set. Otherwise, you can try Choice Band with U-Turn when it's available 

 

Z-Crystal or Life Orb on Volcarona. You can try a more bulky set with Def EV with Leftovers but Rocky Helmet won't help eitherway.

 

You can try utility moves such as Toxic on Gengar or Toxic Spikes on Greninja because you have enough coverage with your attacks.

Thank you for the set suggestions, I thought some of them were a bit off. I'll modify the team to fit some more roles. Thanks!

Hey everybody, it's been a while

 

I recently beat episode 18 and it was quite enjoyable. It honestly took me a few tries to beat the last gym leader, so I want to develop a better end-game team so I will have better confidence in the next episode. Here's my current team that I want to build (I already have most of them):

 

Greninja w/ Expert Belt

Ability: Protean

EV's: 252 Sp. Atk, 252 Speed, 4 Def

- Surf

- Gunk Shot

- Extrasensory

- Dark Pulse

 

Flygon w/ Assault Vest

Ability: Levitate

EV's: 252 Atk, 252 Speed, 4 Def

- Earthquake

- Fly (Pretty sure I'm going to replace for Crunch)

- Dragon Claw

- Rock Slide

 

Volcarona w/ Rocky Helmet

Ability: Flame Body

EV's: 252 Sp. Atk, 252 Speed, 4 Def

- Quiver Dance 

- Bug Buzz

- Fiery Dance/Flamethrower (Haven't decided)

- Heat Wave

 

Gengar w/ Life Orb

Ability: Cursed Body

EV's: 252 Sp. Atk, 252 Speed, 4 HP

- Destiny Bond

- Shadow Ball

- Focus Blast

- Dazzling Gleam

 

Magnezone w/ Choice Specs

Ability: Sturdy

EV's: 252 Sp. Atk, 252 Def, 4 HP

- Discharge

- Thunderbolt

- Tri Attack

- Flash Cannon

 

Gallade w/ Galladite

Ability: Justified (Inner Focus)

EV's: 252 Atk, 252 Speed, 4 Def

- Close Combat

- Zen Headbutt

- Swords Dance

- Knock Off

 

Note: I also have a Specially Offensive Lucario, Trick Room Escavalier, Offensive Mimikyu, and Offensive Darmanitan on standby

 

And that's the team. I would greatly appreciate some feedback as to what I could do to make this team better, but I really would like to try to try to synergize it more. If you think I need to replace anyone please make a suggestion as to what, and I will get any species necessary. Thanks

[The Philosopher's Gazebo]

The word wonderful in this instance is used mainly in a sarcastic tone, Nihilism being a rather depressing reasoning.

I don't believe in Nihilism, nor that is a good way for someone to base their live. I just find it interesting to how people live in that certain lifestyle while others tend to live a different way. The very concept that they can live "without purpose" intrigues me.

I think that everyone has a purpose in their life, and that purpose can be found and filled by that individual.

While we are small and insignificant, as you have put it, we do have our places to fill in this world. Only a handful of individuals get to make a "big difference" as seen by the public eye, but we all contribute in our own ways to the endeavors of this world.

I simply enjoy learning the ways of other people.

i found this and i thought it would be appropriate here.

what would you guys do in the trolley problem? I am not certain myself.

To quote Harrison Ford, "I'd kill myself."

To suggest a topic, has anyone delved into the wonderful world of nihilism? I am intrigued by the philosophy so much, and yet it feels defeated somehow.

If you've never heard of it, it is a philosophy that basically states that no one exists, life is pointless, and all the experiences in our universe contributes to nothing. I've known a few people with this philosophy, yet they are happy with their lives because knowing that we live for nothing made them feel as if they have everything to live for.

I'd like to hear what you think about the subject.

Thank you all!

@Despair Syndrome - It is called Nighthawks by Edward Hopper. I really enjoy it and use it in a lot of things.

@YoshiofRedemption - I did not draw this, I thought it looked cool and fit very nicely.

["I am pale Death, come to bear you to Perdition."]

Hello everyone! You may call me Fitch and I started playing Pokemon Reborn sometime around last summer, but have recently got back into it on a new save profile. I am familiar with the craziness that goes on around this forum; I have spent a lot of time trying to find answers to questions around here.

I enjoy interpreting art, playing games, listening to music, reading, watching movies, and listening to people discuss philosophy (that thread is one of the main reasons I came here).

I hope to one day become a pilot, or some kind of manager, not quite sure yet...

I've played Pokemon ever since I was around 7, Firered being my first game. My favorite Pokemon is Volcarona.

I hope I will be able to contribute something to these forums and learn some things too. Excited for Ep 16! That's pretty much it. Feel free to ask any questions if you like.
