[an actual real-life mac version (that might also be unstable and crash a lot)]

A sad story has come up - OS X 10.12 or further is required to play, so my old "donated" computer isn't good enough. Wine still works, though.

[Difficulty Modes and Battle Chart]

Now to wonder what the "additional bullshit" might be.

Pseudo-Legendaries, perhaps?
Actual Legendary Pokemon?

Pokemon who fit the field's theme but aren't a part of that Leader's type?

More than six pokemon at once?

Stat boosts a la Totem Battles?

Weather giving additional boosts?

PULSE-2 Akin boosts for all major battles?

Pokemon who have their base stats amplified or switched around to make a puzzle boss?
So many options, so many of them horrible, so little time...

[Important Idea: Internally Inflicting Indignity]

Well, that's half the reason we play this game, isn't it? Seemingly-impossible challenges that we take the time and effort to figure out - and beat the shit out of anyways, whether through tactics or just cheesing it with stat boosts and weather (or both). I don't think the Reborn team has created any unique abilities or moves in the game, though - there's already plenty to work with.

 

Though considering some of the stuff I have seen and what Mr. Mime is supposed to be doing, I'm expecting that the screens on the Mr Mime will be there at the start of the battle... and renew themselves every turn or something. Or that Mr Mime has a team consisting of backup Mr Mimes or such. If this is one of the last PULSES, there's no way it won't be hard... we have every non legendary potentially at our disposal, now.
