  1. Hey, so I'm trying to get a bad ending and a bug accord: after defeating Rift Garbodor, I still get the restoration text and a "thanks for saving him"

    I want to know if it's just a text bug or did it actually not give me bad points...

     

    Here are the save files before and after the battle. Can anyone who knows how to decode please check if I got the bad points? thanks :)

    (just "game" is after while the longer name is before)

    Game - 2567 - Death - 71h 0m - 8 badges.rxdata Game.rxdata

    For this gym, I used these two mons: 

    imgur link for both of them: https://imgur.com/a/i0pujgK

     

    Strategy: Hypnosis the aggron turn 1. If Hypnosis misses, restart. If Hypnosis lands, click substitute and minimize up. If the sub is broken, use substitute again. If the aggron is asleep, you have clicked minimize three times already, and have a sub up, switch into Blaziken and start bulking up. Bulk up to +6 and click substitute if the sub gets broken again. Use leppa berries to restore pp of substitute if it gets too low. From there, just use High Jump Kick to win. (Stacking Shot would be better in this scenario, but I forgot to teach my blaziken it. 

     

    Items used: Leppa berries (like 3). Ultra Potions (30+)

    Genius!

    Got lucky and didn't need even to use items!

    Yeah I'd agree with this as well. However I do feel like it's not balanced quite as well as Reborn and Rejuv were in the early game. Charles is a real difficulty spike for so early on and Adrienne is really difficult for that point of the game too. It does smooth out afterwards at least. 

     

    For fangames not of the Reborn family, I'd recommend Xenoverse. It's excellent and has the best art direction of any fangame I've played honestly. A lot of the NPC art could pass for official art and it comes closer to capturing the aesthetic of the actual games more than any other fangame.  The fakemon designs are mostly quite good and it's got a charming cast of characters, plus a great soundtrack. It's not as hard as Reborn's family but still has challenging moments, especially for the first 3rd or so of the game. It does get a lot easier lategame I feel. This is probably my favorite fangame not of the Reborn-trilogy. Its maingame is finished with some of the postgame finished but I think there's still a few things we can't get so I'm not sure the exact status of it. 

     

    Uranium's fakemons are...dated somewhat and kinda jank-looking(some of the animations/designs are quite good at least) tbh but the game itself is still solid and one of the better fangames. I think the soundtrack for it good too and the story isn't too bad but takes time to get good. I did like the nuclear thing, that was cool. The postgame was never completed for this one but the main game is done. I had fun with it.

     

    Insurgence is fun with all the deltas and how the game gives the player a lot to play with so you're never stuck in pokemon poverty with lousy mons like say early game Reborn but the story/writing is....not great? It's not bad and has its moments but it's not why you play Insurgence lol. Some of the music is cool(dat Nyx theme), but not the wild battle theme. The wild battle theme was so bad I actually had to replace it just to get through the game. I thought something was wrong with the game when I first heard it lol. Also it repeats the same 3-4 town music for every town which gets old. It's weird because the cult leaders have so much effort put into their music but then the towns and some other themes feels rather lacking in comparison. It's a real shame.

     

    The only other ones I played were Daybreak and Empire which I just started. Empire is very weird but fresh in how it approaches the mechanics which makes it stand out.  It's not for everyone and I'd honestly only recommend it for more hardcore players because it's overwhelming otherwise with all its changes and field system. Plus it has some questionable design choices, some of which are very offputting. Kind of feels like a a love it or hate it game from what I played of it so far.. Daybreak I would recommend if you want to play a fangame that's not any of the above I guess?

     

     

    I wrote in the previous page my feelings about Uranium/Insurgance. TL;DR they were dissapointing. The main reason was because of the hype they have (being ranked above reborn in most sites). Insurgance actually pisses me off cause it has so much wasted potential.

    I'll check Xenoverse/daybreak/empire. thanks

     

    Edit: just saw the trailer for Xennoverse and it looks really good

     

  4. I have no clue if anyone's interested, but here's my take on the fan games.

    I'll start by saying that it was a mistake starting with Reborn, since it spoiled me in the quality I was looking for. So far, outside of Reju/Deso, nothing even comes close. So while I will sound harsh against these games, some of them are still good.

    In brackets after the name I wrote my progress of the game, not what the game has. It may go further.

    In underline is my final thoughts of the game (AKA too long didn't read AKA tl;dr)

     

    Let's start with the 2 classics:

    Pokemon Uranium: (finished all content)

    definitely one of the better fan games. A lot of the designs are pretty well made (there are some bad designs, but so do the original games), and while the story is no Reborn, it holds up quite nicely. There are some balance issues, so if you don't want the game to be too easy, don't use Nucleon.

    I think my biggest problem with the game is the lack of extra content. Not a lot of side-quests, with the ones there are being low quality, and while they tease you on post-game, there is little to none of that, probably due to them being shut down.

    Pretty good game, and is worth a shot.

     

    Pokemon Insurgence: (finished most of post-game)

    Probably going to get a lot of hate since this one is so popular, but this game was extremely disappointing.

    Let me explain - the biggest flaw this game has is the lack of fleshing out everything. the story is forgettable, and the characters even more so. I have never forgot that my rivals exist until this game. I'm not even joking. when they show up, it was always "Oh... You exist..." and then proceed to forget them again.

    While the puzzles ideas of gaining different abilities were unique and cool, there were too short it always felt that the creator got bored with it way too fast and moved to another kind of puzzle, forgetting the first kind. This is less of a problem in post game, where there are more of using a couple of abilities together.

    What is annoying me is that this game is quite competent, but is missing the last push, most of the time feeling like it's backing out on itself. 

    Delta forms are nice though, so that's a plus.

    If you don't mind the story and characters that much, pick up this game, since it still is a decent game.

     

    Now that these are out of the way...

     

    Pokemon Clover: (stopped about half way through)

    Made by the people of 4Chan. While funny and offensively so, it does drag out. The main selling point of this game is the absolute ridiculous Fakemons and dark humor. if you're not a fan of that, or if some things do offend you, steer away and don't look back, for this game insults everyone (for example, some Pokemon include but not limited too: an arab suicide bomber lizard, feminist whales, jews, a bunch of adult jokes, and tree jesus). Not much more too say. I can't remember the story, but that's not the point of this game, so it's not really a con for me. Like I said, it drags a bit, so I decided to just look at the designs at the wiki, laugh and move on to the next game.

    If you have time and like dark/offensive humor, go ahead and try this out.

     

    Pokemon Legends of the Arena: (made it to the 7th arena)

    this is the latest game I tried. Interesting concept that instead of gyms, there are arenas. you start off as 8 people, and slowly you beat them throughout the game, trying to become the last contestant and fight the champion.

    The story is pretty solid and unique, and some charcters like your rival and the manager are memorable.

    However, it suffers 2 major flaws in my book:

    1. the rest of the cast vanishes, except of your rival and the next person you are going to battle, which makes who you are going to battle next not surprising at all, and feels a bit cheap to give character development only right before you battle them. When I said vanishes, I don't mean sitting at the side throwing a random sentence and that's it. I mean that they are literally nowhere to be found, not apearing at all until their time arrives, then being a medium to small part of the story in that particular town/city, battling you and leaving the group, letting the next stock character apear. To some it may not be a problem, but it really bothers me...

    2. Battle bugs (Warning: rant incoming). This actually made me rage quit. I spent a long time creating a rain team. then I spent over an hour getting a good Poliwhirl, training it to learn Hydro Pump, evolving it, and changing it's ability to drizzle, only for the game to decide that it doesn't use that abilty, even though in the past someone with a drizzle Politoed fought me and it worked for him. After checking, I found out there are a bunch of these kind of bugs. Maybe one day I will continue. Maybe not

    All in all decent game, if you don't mind the bugs or stock characters.

     

    Phoenix Rising: (completed what's out)

    There isn't much content at all yet, but so far it's a solid game. The way the quests are given, the graphics, the overall theme. I quite enjoyed this. Because this has almost no content, it's hard to know if the story will be good. so far it seems to be going in the right direction. I'll let you know in 2030 when they release ep 2 😛

    Good start for a game, but not enough content to say for sure.

     

    Pokemon Edge rising: (finished)

    Oh boy, this game... what a rollercoaster. Played this right after I replayed Reborn/Reju (monotype challenge), and that was the right decision.

    While a short game (only a few hours), it was hilarious to play. for those who don't know, Edge Rising is a spoof of all the edgy games and movies, with a stupid plot, over the top characters and moments, and so edgy with the dialogue, sound choices and ending, that I cut myself on this game more then once. also, a bit of Fakemon and Pokemon variants.

    Since this is a short game with some very good moments, it is definitely worth playing.

     

    Pokemon Empyrean: (finished)

    This game feels the most fan made of all, and it barely has new Pokemon in it. The first reason for that is because the power lv is insane, with lv 150 cap, GP (explained in game), and stat boosting cards. The second reason is the story. It goes over the top with it's setting (don't want to spoil), giving it a bizzare feel. some of the new Pokemon are pretty good, and the characters are not that bad either. It's easy to see who the creator wanted and who not, since some characters apear for their roles as gym leaders and never seen again, while some are throughout the entire game. The game has quite a large scale, so if you are looking for short game, this is not the one.

    This game is hard to review, since it's good points are also it's bad points:

    1. Insane power lvs may be your style, but you may hate it.

    2. The story feels like a weird fanfic. Not a bad cringy one mind you, as some of the story's actually not bad at all, but it gives off more fan made vibes than most games.

    3. This is mostly for post game - the broken mechanics. The game has some broken abilities and items, and it's aware of it. In post game you start battling insanely broken Pokemon (for example there is a trainer who has a wonder guard smeargle with an item that nullifies fighting type moves. He has 5 other broken mons, but I won't spoil more). personally, I loved it. It felt less like a battle and more like tough riddles, as they all have a way to be beaten.

    Unless you really don't like thing that feel too fan made (which is understandable), you should give this one a go

     

    A few extra games that I didn't progress enough to review:

    Pokemon Spork:

    It feels more like a Pokemon relaxation game. it is not challenging, and not meant to be. you Get all the powerful mons at the beggining, and I personally didn't connect to the story. If you do want a game to just relax to while building your dream team, check this out.

    Pokemon Postscriptum:

    Didn't get far. It bored me, Plot, but mainly gameplay.

    Romhacks:

    I used to play a bunch of them on my phone. So far the non Romhacks far surpass them in every way, so I see no need to list them.

     

     

    Now if you read this until now, wow you're bored...

    I do have 2 requests:

    1. If anyone knows more good games, please share with us. (btw, is Apex really good like people say?)

    2. Very specific, but while trying to open Pokemon Sage, it kept crashing. I tried installing the fonts but to no avail. If someone had the same problem and manged to fix it, let me know.

     

    That's all folks.

    The darkinium-z is the replacement reward that Hardy drops to compensate for the Scyther egg getting axed in E5. If you are playing on an E4 savefile like me, there is currently no way to obtain the darkinium-z and you will just have to be happy with having scizor much earlier than it should be allowed haha.

     

    Spoiler

    I'll take my Scizor over any z move item. She keeps complaining her back hurts from all the carrying she's doing.

    Where do you get all of the orbs and what will they do? 

     
    Spoiler

    So far you can only get 1 orb. It's for a certain berd that is good for keeping your ice cream cold 🙂

     

    I heard you can get Darkinium z? I got to the end storywise, and didn't find it. Anyone knows where it is?

    How do you get Articuno i'm curious because I have a frozen orb but it does nothing when next to the statue, what do i do.

    Surf right. should be a cave. If you see a hiker, progress the story.

    Hey i found type null at the Celia docks but theres a policeman in front of the cage and i cant open it, how do i actually get it? 

    Speak to the policeman. If he doesn't say you can take the pokemon, that means you need more badges, so you'll need to progress a bit in the main story

    Hey, does anyone know how to get Eevee and Deino? Would realy appreciate it! 

    Deino - beat underground a bunch (I think like 30 times), and then can't remember if you need to walk outside, or speak to the manager.

    Eevee - one of the sidequests given at North Celia. (From what I remember, it's after the fox sidequest at the manor rooftop, though I might be wrong)

    Wow.  Ok thank you for saying this.  Somehow I forgot I had a Pokémon with discharge and that did the trick, he wasn’t that bad.  Thank you.

    Good to hear 🙂

    What's your team? Trying to get a better fire/electric type.

    I’m asking in this thread because of the spoiler lock

      Hide contents

    Does anybody have ANY suggestions for a team of six Pokémon for the fight against aoron the steel gym leader?  He is giving me a WAY harder time than the others did.  Literally all of my Pokémon get one hit KOd at his empeleon.  (Even my fighting type)
     

    and also where to find the Pokémon, I don’t mind having to grind a bit for new Pokémon.

     

    Spoiler

    It wasn't too hard for me. my team was Greninja, magneton, Krookodile, Camerupt, Scizor and I think it was Gengar?

    Anyways, if you have choise scarf, put it o Magneton, and a discharge should take care of Mr.penguin

     

  12. 12 minutes ago, HippoSheep said:

    Do you remember where you got the scarf from? I have a choice specs, and I vaguely remember that we may have had the option to choose between the items, but that was years ago back in E4. Just making sure I didn't miss out on getting a choice item.

     

    I only have the scarf, so I guess it was a choice (so long ago I can barely remember)

  13. 22 hours ago, HippoSheep said:

    Wait what? Articuno is available for catching using the frozen orb in this episode? Also you can evolve your magneton to magnezone.

     

    Spoiler

    Was about to answer you until I saw someone already did... Too bad Articuno is downright barley usable...

    I prefer magneton because with scarf he's an excellent revenge killer, thanks to being speedier than Magnezone. (magnezone with scarf - 90 speed, not fast than the average 100. meanwhile magneton scarf speed is 105, and he still has a whooping 120 sp.atk, which makes him good enough for me. 

     

    Oh, and asking again about the Makuhita at mt.silver. anyone knows what's his deal? He just ignores me

  14. 10 hours ago, HippoSheep said:

    Any idea what the colored pieces are used for? They're all key items and so far I have the blue, green, purple and yellow pieces. Not sure if I missed any or if we know about their purpose. Also does anyone know if there's anything to do on Bountila Island after finishing E5? I thought perhaps it would have some link to Moltres' orb for the sacred relic since we now have Articuno's from Aderyn.

     

    Spoiler

    I actually asked about the orbs/keys, and (I think it was posty) said that only 1 orb is available, so I guess only Articuno. Waiting for Zapdos so I can switch my magneton. 

     

  15.  

    Here with more bothersome questions (spoilers) 

    Spoiler

    1) After post game, at dreamworld they said Tristan has gone somewhere. is there a way to find him, or only in later episodes?

    2) Is the mega stone for Cinccino available?

    3) Is there an event with the makuhita at silver rise? It wasn't there at ep 4
