    But what I really don't get is why Heather gets shot instead of Shelly

     

    To finish off the rest of the family, of course. Shelly is just a whiney, completely out of my interest.

  2. Voting anonymously who to kill is one thing, to state a reasoning to it is another, lol. There was a Black Mirror episode on a similiar topic, the one with bees.

     

    ...anyway, Sirius is pretty obvious, his good side was never shown, probably he doesnt have one. Elias, I dont have good feelings towards fanatics. And maybe Blake, but I guess there is hope for him, so I unticked.

     

    I see Im not alone with Amaria, she's just... too ''heavy'' overall and destructive. Cal, I dont like him and his actions since the very beggining. And Heather because why not.

     

    But why people want to get rid of Serra so much? And Julia?! She might be annoying, but I like how honest and straightforward she is and always there to cheer up.

    Straight from the Devblog:

     

    Soooo.....why doesn't Nintendo stomp Game Freak and hire you guys?

     

    Then again, that would lead to finally having a good official Pokémon game, with actual features that the players demanded for years.

    ...and we can't have that XD

     

     

    Im curious on that one too, this deserves a ''technical'' blog note.

    And i didn't even mean to make any reference there. I mean it as i say it. If i want unfinished games full of bugs that need at least 3 emergency day 1 patches, there's always EA and Ubisoft.

    I know I know, I was just joking. Im still pretty butthurt of what this game could be though if it was given enough time. Even in this alpha version the immersion is awesome, but it just screams ''cut content'' or ''unfinished'' at every second step.  </offtopic>

    Yeah, i'd say all of us really want to play both the last part of the story and the post game content.

     

    But as always i'd rather wait a little longer for a finished product than getting a half baked bugfest.

    Hey, I know that reference. It comes from CP77!

     

    Luckily, Reborn has no shareholders, its project management is top-notch, the board of directors understand the value of a trademark and consumers' trust and the only pressure is the positive pressure coming from this forums.

  6. I didn't notice such issues while playing sucker punch honchcrow (at last not to this extent, but I guess if I was actively trying to fool the AI with priority moves, eventually it will succeed), though I can confirm the AI sometimes goes nuts when it has no clearly good option to switch in (regardless if it is typing, entry hazards or whatever), like switching one after the other without doing any moves.

  7. I plan to do a polish translation, but I'm waiting for E19. Generally, I think the best approach would be to stay in line with the official translation (e.g. the names, including Pokemon, are never localized) correcting them here and there - look at the screenshot below, that's the list of words used for the ''Tackle'' move, most of them made sense only for the particular scene in the anime. Also, I will definitely need some help with Terra's lines and meme-ish references along the game (some of them didn't age well or are not popular here, so will be replaced with something from ''polish internet'').

    Honorable mention to Noel

    Noel! Look, the boy is always left aside, even now he is mentioned somewhere deep into the page, he doesn't feel loved or relevant at all, and he is the only one that isn't doing that to himself - Amaria, Titania, Charlotte, Taka, Corey, everyone above - they are fighting their own demons, while this boy if left out by the others. This is the problem. Wonder if this envy will push him to something, like turning to Team Meteor or so.

    Luna is a very charismatic yet dark character, who seem to wander through the game without any strings or purpose, seeking nothing but peace.

    Luna is mysterious and living in her own world, the darkness isn't cold and lonely to her, it is comforting, soothing, and indeed peaceful. I dont think she's sad, she seems to be okay the way she is. And Im certain she will have more screen time and a significant role by the end of the day, or at last the significance of her actions will be revealed.

    The only person that mattered to her is Lin, who potentially manipulated Terra into joining Team Meteor.

    I dont think she was manipulated, though her parents say she changed when she met Lin (?citation needed). More likely, she was the nerdy, solo type, and with Lin they are using each other.

  9. This analysis on Taka reminded me of Titania and the choice in the WTC. When we choose to fight him and take idealistic path, Titania follows the same and when we refuse, the truth is revealed both about Taka's feeling on his purpose and Titania's feeling for Amaria. Now I think it should be reversed: when we refuse to fight and Taka gets killed by Titania in the true path, she sees the outcome and decides it is not always worth it, so she stays with Amaria for the sake of not making the same mistake again. And in the other path, when we fight Taka and follow the ideals, Titania grows sick of it and decides to reveal her true feelings to Amaria. Besides, Titania's entanglement is also noteworthy in this topic, no matter the choice..

     

    (Kinda necroposting we are doing here, but given the current level of activity on the forum, I dont mind)

  10. Kricketune, Butterfree, Pachirisu shouldn't be listed as weak in Reborn. Kricketune rocks through Julia and Florinia. Butterfree as above. I managed to use Pachirisu in quite a few of my playthroughs up to around 50 lvl: nuzzle + electroball with superfang is quite useful.

    Is it really that rare? Damn I got this BMIC selling lady the first time I played through restored Reborn.

     

    The ice cream vendor appears everytime there is a sunny weather, but the she has BMIC in stock very rarely. Dont remember if anything changed in this matter along the releases, like, she has one BMIC every time when we visit her for the 1st time or so.

  12. Nice - in detail, we have much more room to speculate for much greater inaccuracy. As for the general view, the above does seem like a highly possible, if not the only possible, path. I'd still place my bet for Laura+Bennet double battle tough. Laura's stone stands for love (and the relationship points would alter only his team members, if anything).

  13. Also, there are certain choices that (used to?) give you +1 to Anna and +1 to Shade, this is reflected when Anna hears on Taka's death/surviving. There are like, three states: 1. when she says everything goes according to plan, 2. when something went wrong, but it is acceptable (I think Taka dies, but Solaris got kicked at the Pyrous, but dont quote me on that) and 3. when she is terrified nothing goes the right way.

     

    Now I wonder, what if Radomus/Anna plans aren't exactly our understanding of the good outcome? What if siding with Elias was the good choice - after all, we witness Radomus hypnotizing people, El's accusation aren't that far-fetched.

    She continues to be one big mystery. I don't even know how our battle against her will go. My biggest bet is the starlight field where her Jirachi will drop a Drac- i mean Doom Desire with 820 Basepower because of the field (don't know if that's the exact number so don't quote me on that). As for her Mega Pokemon i doubt that it will be Mega Metagross since running two pokemon with the same dual typing seems a bit redundant.

     

    Perhaps Mega Lucario ? A field boosted Adaptability Meteor Mash can certainly be terrifying. Keep in mind that Meteor Mashes Base Power doubles on that field.

    Meteor Mash in Starlight Field = 180 BP. Adaptability doubles that to 360 BP. That's what i thought at first until i realized that Adaptability copies Trace on this Field, so i guess we don't have to worry about that:)

     

    So if it's not Mega Metagross or Mega Lucario then who could be ? Well i have third guess... Mega Charizard Y. How did i come to that conclusion ? Let me explain.

    First off, it has great synergy with Jirachi especially on this field. Doom Desire deals additional Fire Type Damage and those will be boosted By Zard Y's Drought. And Jirachi can deal with those annoying Rock Types in Return.

    Second, Solar Beam deals Fairy Type Damage and has increased Base Power on this Field. 180 to be exact. So yeah her Charizard would be a dragon slayer.

     

    Another thing to consider is that her Jirachi might have Healing Wish. Why is this important ? Well aside from the usual "heal an ally back to 100 % and remove status" it also boosts the target's attack and special attack when used on the starlight field. So not only will her Jirachi deal a f**k ton of damage but it might also go out with a bang by healing and boosting one of it's allies.

     

    Another Member might be Clefable. Yes i know that Noel has one but that shouldn't stop Anna from using one. This is another Mon that can abuse this field to no end.

     

    Cosmic Power is an instant +2 to both defense and sp. defense. And just like Jirachi it can learn wish and healing wish.

     

    Her fourth Team Member could be Milotic. Marvel Scale automatically activates on the Starlight Field. Pair that up with Recover and you have an annoying wall to deal with.

     

    But i have no idea what the last two members could be. Maybe Minior ?

     

     

     

    I know one thing: for her Jirachi, Im bringing my Houndoom with Flash Fire. Anyone has any idea how she can erase that one with Jirachi?

  15. It was already explained that this certain order (e19 story -> starlight -> starlight demo -> e19 postgame -> e19 release) is the reason for the long development time. While I understand people being frustrated about long waiting, I don't understand hate towards starlight or the developers for that. The burnout with Reborn was already lurking in the shadows in the past few episodes, so I totally support the decision to give yourself some time off of reborn.

     

    (Btw - really none saw that coming? xD this order literally screams "THERE WILL BE IMMENSE DELAYS WITH EVERYTHING". I believe the team expected and accepted the fact that there will be delays, but they didn't expect them to be this much.)

     

    On a side note - the screenshot of starlight in the post gives me the ''early reborn'' feeling, which I take as a good sign.

    Ame takes the role of Professor which is the old fart you forget about right away. Suddenly they are broadcasted to actually be someone really important...then they die. It's really anti-climatic when you think about it.

    Thanks for that, I knew about the moments based on the real events, but I think you captured the essence: we had speculations about who the Champion is, and out of sudden, without any build-up, we get ''It's A-me!'', like, hey, Im the strongest trainer around and two steps later the strongest champion is gone, without us witnessing any bit of its power in fact. That's why I felt this scene is being forced. If this was, let's say, Radomus or Amaria, this would look differently.

    Honestly I wish she hadn't taken herself out. I thought it was kind of cool.

    I dont remember if she ever stated why she regrets putting herself into the game, nevertheless, without knowing the reasoning, from my perspective it would be better if she kept it as it was.
