Jesus christ already 28% of the sprites done?

I am seriously tempted to throw in that 1$ "I am helping :"D " in as a symbolic degree of assistance. As someone else mentioned, it feels like a crime to play a game, which has brought me more memories, fun and inspiration than any 50 euro pokemon game nintendo ever coughed up, for free. I am tempted, truly. After all, what is 1 euro per month to me? I daily spent that getting a completely unnecessary brownie at school. It would be my first patreon pledge... EDIT: Okay i've come around and decided to go for it but i don't have a credit card and my Paypal is a bit screwed on account of my account getting limited, and the page for phone authentication crashing whenever is try to access it can't even close down the account and start a new one because the bloody close down function is also bugged EDIT 2: Paypal finally unfucked my account. Going through the motions to give Ame her extremely cheap and drawn-out christmas gift. Praise be, praise be. The bad news is that the 80 euros i tried to put on it 2 months ago while it was limited (god knows why thats even an option) is permanently gone.

HUUUUZAAAAAHHHH And because i stopped giving a shit about literally anything, I didn't nab that chance to steal the presequel of reborn from you. Too lazy to take mah rightous spot in the limelight. Also PROTIP: If you don't have a water starter, take Aquanid (Because Water Bubble combined with mystic water gives you Quotro (multiplicative bonus, Bubble is applied before STAB is calculated) STAB and turns you into an OP god that can oneshot a lvl 100 arceus with a level 25 Aquanid) or a Toxapex, (Because poison spikes + Merciless = GG SON). Both these pokemon have absolutely ridiculous stats if you use their offensive ability well. Can't wait for them to be ported into Reborn in [3 years]. And god damn, Bug monoteams are going to be a LOT stronger after S&M is included. Jeebus those SM bugs are powerful. Between Vikavolt, Goliso "Escavalier 's a bitch" Pod and Aquanuke, along with those amazing UB's, that type sure as hell got some justice done to them. Btw, what version do you think Ame has bought, folks? I hope its Moon, so she can throw her DS out of the window at supersonic speed when she finds out her beloved Ice + Fairy Ninetails is a Sun exclusive. Aaaahhh, thoughts like that, bring a tear of joy to my eye

Oh yis, this is my moment to steal the opportunity to do the HorrendouslyWrittenGuideToReborn: The PresequeltmAnd subsequently get shamed away from the forum for my writing being utter shit and not holding up to yours, and show off my amazing comedic skillz while cockblocking you from ever doing the presequel yourself though at this rate you'll be finished with the Rejuv guide by 2019 So.... Permission to ruthlessly plagiarize your entire shtick? Also i am very offended by the lack of you trying to make Jan's Bullshittm a thing

On the hand, Uncensored edition is pretty blatantly a satire/parody, so fair use should cover it

Goddamnit don't be giving her ideas. You know she's lurking in this thread

I actually pinned down the cry being that of one of Mewtwo's mega evolutions...

My personal headcanon is that the train bombing at the start of the game threw the protaganist out of the train with quite some force, causing him to hit his/her/xers head damaging the part we use for speech. Luckily, our protaganist has actually mastered sign language and uses this to communicate with others. Of course, your animation budget cannot possibly cover for accurate signing sprites so to us it appears as if the protaganist is unable to communicate in any way. Radomus merely says his joke to bring us off-track

It is really easy, but as i said, can it be increased above the internal value 63?

IV's? I doubt it. I've tried to do it with cheat engine but iirc it won't work; not sure whether the variable allows values of this length (iirc all pokemon game values in cheat engine are their base value * 2 + 1, which means the CC value for a max IV is 63. If the variable is assigned as a "byte" type, then 63 is the maximum numerical value it can support) Also, yes, i am not a very strong man and i knoweth no shame

Also, i herd you liek mudkips https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PbjixwNMSDk Compliments to Amethyst for making this...Uhm...thing

Yeah, i found out about it when reading Chubbs perfectly written guide to reborntm in which he highlighted that Corey was actually a person and that this wasn't just Ame attempting to be edgy. In about the year 2010, there was this community using this website about a online league on some program used to have pokemon battles with people over the internet on your PC. It was called the Reborn League because Ame first had a community but mostly due to her being negligent the community died out, and consequently, was "Reborn". Ame, within this league, created a roster of leaders (and possibly a champion and Elite 4 not completely sure) and reserves which people could challenge and earn badges from. Every single leader (Scrap that can't find logs of Serra, need confirmation on that one) in the game, be it ex leader or current, was once either the main leader or the reserve leader of their respective type in Ame's Reborn League. And one day, Ame decided to start the production of this fangame, which, as i said, is basically making a fanfiction of her old community. The characters in the game are either in accordance to their battle persona (like Terra, who actually did spam Rawr Rawr Rawr :3 all the time during battles (trust me i saw the battle logs)), or simply their character of how they behaved within the community. After than, she wrote the story using references to real behind-the-scenes events of the community to create parallells, such as, Kiki's sickness and Corey's suicide. To the best of my knowledge, Titania was a real person too, though her real name might have been Tania, not sure. (http://www.pokemonreborn.com/league/archive.html?log=2093) And it seems like the orphan family also was real (though they might or might not have been orphans) http://www.pokemonreborn.com/league/logs.html?log=3221 If you wanna find logs of the real Reborn characters, just search on google Pokemon Reborn [leader name] Logs. As you can clearly see there is some role play in their characters, as expected

The reason the name of the lady giving you your starter isn't a reference to some kind of flora is simple: This entire game is basically a complete fanfiction of the Reborn League community designed by the person who was its administrator back in the day, Amethyst (that is her real name too iirc), in short, Ame. She put herself in the game because she managed the league of the past. Almost all notable characters in the game were characters in real life, and quite a few of the struggles they go through in the game actually parallell the ones they have in real life. Ofc, some character traits got exhagerated for the sake of making more memorable characters. From what i've heard from vets here, these are the parallells. For example: Cain was real, and he was infamous for cybering with challengers, but he was grounded by his homophobic mom (which is insinuated to be such in the game) and Aya then took over. Fern and Florinia were both real. Florinia never really had an interest in pokemon but was leader for a while before Fern took over. Fern was actually a complete irredeemable asshole who nobody really like. He pulled really disgusting stunts like DC'ing when he was losing from a challenger and then returning with a counter team and saying he got "internet issues". Florinia then came back and beated him over and over, constantly forfeiting her badge again and coming back with a new team. Nobody really knows why she did it. Heather, Corey, Blake and Cal were real. Corey actually was the father of Heather and he actually did commit suicide, so this wasn't Ame being edgy or dramatic. This mimicked real life. If what i've heard was true, Blake actually did adopt Heather and then Ame tried to keep her as a leader of the League to prevent her from isolating herself too much. Eventually Heather quited the league, and Blake stopped when she did, and Cal stopped when he did. Blake was however more of a "casual ironic douche" instead of the schoolyard bully Reborn portrays him as, other than Fern who was actually an irredeemable douche. Kiki was real, and did actually have to quit the league due to a disease. I believe the entire orphan family existed too, but i haven't found conclusive proof, and so did Sigmund (I believe he was the electric leader of the league after Julias PC exploded), who actually did experiment with ECT, and there were actually questions about whether he was breaching ethical standards. Ofc, sigmund has been dramatized because everyone hated the character the moment he was introduced. Shade was also the actual Ghost leader. He might or might not have been a supernatural entity. All we know is that he hardly ever said anything other than cryptic poems about other leaders. Amaria existed too, and she had amnesia, a fact reflected after she got rescued in-game. I don't know whether Bennett and his obsession with Luna was real but at this point i don't wanna know. Apperantly Radomus did exist so thats a win So yeah, its basically an extremely well made fanfic, and its truly shocking how many paralells to real life there are. Torchic is king. Especially in Reborn. Where you have speedboost as your hidden ability. 2 turns in and you go through the sound barrier.

You know, at one time i actually was near the ladder, but i saw the near dead grunt and was like "Ooh, imma check this out. I can handle this!" and turned back. Mistakes were made, hours were lost I'll reserve my cynicism

How do you feel about the fact that the current size of the thread indicates a lot of us have an unhealthy obsession with you? :Kappa: How many love letters do you get in your PM box per month :Kappa: :Kappa: :Kappa:

Yeah you can literally buy Focus Bands for days in the department store

My apologies but I have issues seeing what you are trying to say with that first sentence. And its simple, if you drasticly lower Rare Candy prices, it would make it easier to bring up lower leveled pokemon. In concert with repeatable trainers it can make any levelling proceed at a pleasant pace

Restrictions could work too; perhaps giving a leader about 3 different sets of near identical pokemon with only level differences and then determine which level set you have to play against based on the highest level on your pokemon team. Perhaps she can just make Rare Candies a fug of a lot cheaper in New Reborn

And then Ninendo will come along and send Ame a Cease and Desist kappa

The episode will be finished soontm

Wait, people read this thing for its educational value?!

Indeed, though i argue that the most important impact of Kiki's death was Cal's internal struggle. It instantly made Cal a more interesting character, because he suddenly wasn't some traitor, but a deeply conflicted individual. But as Ame said, "saying goodbye' doesn't necessarily means getting snuffed. For example, given the extralegal/illegal activities of the good guy cast, it might happen that one character throws himself under the bus for the rest of the team, like for example someone taking the full blame of the flight from the orphanage. Perhaps Laura getting kicked out of the Elite 4 acts as a prelude for this; perhaps she will say she incited the rest to rebel against Sigmund, orchestrated it all purely to prevent the Protagonist from getting arrested. Due to her being under investigation, Ame was legally obliged to temporarily suspend her until the investigation was concluded. You bringing up Bennett genuinely makes me fear that next episode Luna will be kidnapped by Bennett and then kept in his closet As his sex slave That'd truly be a fate worse than death. On the backstory bit; Though, Ame, perhaps you could put a massive disclaimer at the start of the game, you know, basically the opposite of normal disclaimers: "This game is the fictionalization of events and characters within the earlier incarnation of the Reborn community. Any resemblance to real life individuals and events is absolutely not coincidental given that most key characters within this game were once part of a community, and underwent some, if not most of the struggles their namesake in this game went through. The only reservation that has been made is that some character traits have been exaggerated in order to make for more memorable characters. Except Fern. Fern is a perfectly accurate representation of how Fern was in our community. Fuck Fern " It would probably instantly make newcomers more interested in the story and prompt and endless deluge of posts on your Q&A interrogating you about the leaders of the reborn league

Screw me, you mean things like the Luna and Heather situations actually have parallels to real life? Screw me i thought that the Reborn story was just good but it sounds more and more like it basically wrote itself. At this point i really think that this is just Ame's way of coping with such depressing situations Ame's fanfiction of her old league. But wait, not only did the lord of wank Fern exist, but also sir scum-a-lot Blake? Where did you folk get these guys; the old Reborn League seems like it was comprised of a drama show cast. On the other hand the idea that Cain actually existed does make me question whether i am truly straight Radomus is real too? Was he a chess grandmaster in real life? How many hats did he have

Whoa, whoa, calm down, Sending in a suicide squad is enough Sturdy exploitation as it is. Beating Madame X only proves you to be a cheeky sod Also, Why is SansTheSkeleton using Flowey as his pic, i am pretty sure thats haram

Git dunked on kiddo Seriously though i was very surprised to see everyone say how much of a menace amber is after i rolled through her in a single run. Also, rain dance OP. You are mad if you let the sun shine Also, the ultimate cheese is actually Murkrow + Prankster + Perish song By the way, have you ever stopped and contemplated how generous Jan is for selling EV reducers for 20 quid? Say what you want about him and his bullshittm, but at least my wallet doesn't get molested in the same way Ame does it with her 1200 per berry. On the other hand, with the raw amount of time that will be spend slapping Audino's on their buttocks, generally every single pokemon in your party has a health EV of 252 by the time they hit lvl 60 so its probably necessary to make those things cheap af. Also, Jan plis, y u no give us 11 free star pieces like Ame does at a single stretch of the game. Wait, whaddayamean i spend too much time grinding on exp slavestm(Its not like i am the sole reason the breeder after the train crash calls his own existance cursed)? That rotation squad of 6 10 14 16 I really should stop training new pokemon into my party at every single gym leader pokemon isn't going to maintain itself! Stacking punch, speed boost blaziken hits so hard it is super-effective on ghost types Another tip for those who like to grind up audino's; the fastest way of doing it is with a stacking attack like echoing voice (the fire lion thingy is good for it), fury cutter and most importantly, stacking punch. Most pokemon struggle quite a bit with these Secret power abusers cute little floofs, but any stacking attack will generally breeze through them quickly Completely copying their writing styles, thats how i get all the ladies
