  1. There is just so much to say...

     

    First of all, thank you to everyone involved. I've had a blast playing the game and I can't wait to play E19.

     

    Second, the wallpapers are amazing!

     

    And finally, it feels so weird to not be able to go to the Devblog anymore... I'm gonna miss that place.

  2. King's Sword

     

    Type: Steel

     

    Category: Physical

    Contact: Yes

    Power: 100

    Accuracy: 100

    PP: 10 (max 16)

    Target(s): One

    Priority: -3

     

    Description: The user takes an offensive stance and waits for the opponent to hit. If the user is not hit, this attack will hit with double the power.

     

    Pokemon that can learn it: Aegislash

     

    At the start of the turn Aegislash turns to its Blade Form, which makes him vulnerable to all damaging moves. However, if Aegislash does not take damage this turn, King's Sword does double damage.

  3. development blog post: "for the progress bars, each lengendary will magically gain its own set of "eventing/story/mapping" bars while it is being worked on"

     

    Doesn't this imply that the completed legendaries will magically lose their set of subbars? Otherwise, at the end there would be something like 110 bars in total and we all know how that looks like... 

  4. I think that it is very hard to complete the bottom row after the first two rows are already completed. 

     

    My advice would be to start all over again and finish the complete first column before moving to the second. Then complete the second row before you start with the third, etc. I think that this is the best and fastest way for you to complete the puzzle.

  5. I wrote a guide about this puzzle a while ago.

     

    I really encourage you to work column by column, instead of row by row. Although I think both ways are possible, I think the column-method is easier.

     

    Also, your current squares as shown below are not correct. There are three 6s over there.

    I hope that the guide or the video can help you solve it. If you have questions, feel free to ask. And if you eventually don't manage to solve it, just send your save-file and I can solve it for you.

     

    Good luck! 🙂

    Why would you do that to yourself? I'm all for challenges but that seems excessive.

    I also like challenges, so I decided to complete the game with only steel types (except for the first gym, since you don't have any steel types at that time). Steel is my favorite type and everything went quite well up to Charlotte. But then it got really hard, especially since I missed some important members like Probopass and other good pokemon like Excadrill were not available at that moment. Beating Charlotte with my MonoSteel team is the hardest battle I've ever done.

     

    Nice to know: I also did a MonoIce run and that was the easiest Charlotte-battle of all my runs. It's almost like she has an Ice-type weakness or something like that. I could easily destroy the field en with some Thick Fat pokemon I managed to beat her in one time.

  7. I wrote a guide about this puzzle a while ago.

     

    While this guide will not solve the problem you currently have, it still might help you into solving the problem. Your current situation is not solvable in a few moves.

     

    You can also upload your save file, then I will try to solve it as soon as possible 🙂

  8. As many of you may know, there is a very hard (often called impossible) puzzle present in Reborn. This puzzle is known as the Magic Square Puzzle. The goal of the puzzle is to create two magic squares: a 3x3 grid such that each possible line of the grid adds up to 15. Lines count horizontally, vertically and diagonally. It seems easy, but the hard part is that one move can transform the complete grid. Since I often see people struggling with this puzzle, I created a guide in which I will explain a way to solve it. Please note: this method is not the fastest or the most efficient way to solve it, although it is still better than Marcello’s program that used over 5 million moves.

     

    Let’s start with some terminology. I use a three-character-code for all my moves. The first character says whether you move a column or a row. The second which one and the third says whether it is to the right or to the left or upwards or downwards. Some examples: r3r (row 3 to the right) and c6d (column 6 down).

     

    Say the given board looks like:

    9 7 7 | 9 8 2
    5 1 6 | 2 6 4
    8 4 3 | 5 3 1

     

    There are several possible solutions of this problem. The only important thing is that the 5’s are in the centres. In this guide, I will try to get the following solution.

     

    8 3 4 | 4 9 2
    1 5 9 | 3 5 7
    6 7 2 | 8 1 6

     

    As you can see, each line adds up to 15. The strategy is to work column by column. You start at the most left column. I suppose that everybody is able to get the first column right. In our case, the grid looks as following. The used moves are: c1d, r2l, c2d, r3l.

    8 4 7 | 9 8 2
    1 7 2 | 6 4 9
    6 3 5 | 3 1 5

     

    Next we try to complete the second column. We will do this by using an algorithm. First, we try to get as many numbers in place by just moving the column. In our case, we can get the 3 and the 7 in correct position by just c2d. The grid now looks like:

    8 3 7 | 9 8 2
    1 4 2 | 6 4 9
    6 7 5 | 3 1 5

     

    Now comes the hardest part. The centre of the left grid should be a 5. Therefore, we search for the most left 5. In our case, this is the 5 in row 3, column 3. We now move the row until the most right correct number from that row (in this case the 1 in row 2) is left of the 5. We then move the 5 to the right row and we undo all the ‘row-moves’ by reversing. In this case we get the 5 in place by: r2r, c3u, r2l.

    8 3 4 | 9 8 2
    1 5 2 | 6 4 9
    6 7 7 | 3 1 5

     

    Now, we keep repeating the algorithm for every column. If you do not understand it yet, please try to follow the next moves. The 4 of column 3 is already in the correct position. The most left 9 is in column 4, row 1. Hence we can get the 9 in position by performing r2r, c4d, r2l.

    8 3 4 | 3 8 2
    1 5 9 | 6 4 9
    6 7 7 | 2 1 5

     

    Since the 2 in column 4 is already in the desired row (row 3), we first move it up. Then we can finish column 3 by moving row 3 once to the right and then place the 2 in place and reverse by moving row 3 once to the left. In total: c4u, r3r, c4d, r3l.

    8 3 4 | 7 8 2
    1 5 9 | 6 4 9
    6 7 2 | 3 1 5

     

    Now the left grid is complete. We repeat once more by first moving the 3 in position (c4u). Then by r1r, c5u, r1l we get the 4 in position and by r3r, c5u r3l we get the 8 in position.

    8 3 4 | 4 1 2
    1 5 9 | 3 7 9
    6 7 2 | 8 6 5

     

    The same way we first perform c5u and then r1r, c6u, r1l and c6d, r2r, c6u, r2l. Now the first 5 columns are perfectly fine. If you are lucky, the sixth one is also correct, but often two numbers need to be switched. In our case we’re fine, since we can solve the puzzle by performing c6u. We solved the puzzle in 31 moves, which is about 5 million moves less than Marcello’s program.

    8 3 4 | 4 9 2
    1 5 9 | 3 5 7
    6 7 2 | 8 1 6

     

     

    I’ll also show what happens when it is not the case that the sixth column is automatically solved.

     

    8 3 4 | 4 9 2
    1 5 9 | 3 5
    6
    6 7 2 | 8 1 7

     

    This method uses the fact that in your desired solution, the bottom left corner and the bottom right corner contain the same number, in our case a 6. First, we move the upper right corner in place, such that the middle and bottom number of the sixth column should be switched. Then we perform r3l, c6d, r3r, c6u. In this case the puzzle is also solved.

     

     

    I hope that this guide was useful to you. If you have questions or are stuck, don’t hesitate to ask!

    From now on, I'm going to nickname every Bagon Newton.

     

    Anyway, I think this is the time to give the dev-team a well-meant interim 'Thank You! 🙂 ' for all the good work until now. Your work is more appreciated than you can ever imagine.

     

    Thank you! 🙂

  10. r3r  (row 3 to the right)

    c6d (column 6 down)

    r3l

    c6u

    r3l

    c6u

    r3r

    c6u

     

    The first character says whether you move a column or a row. The second which one and the third says whether it is to the right or to the left or upwards or downwards.

     

    I'm not completely sure whether this works (because I haven't tried it), but if my calculations are correct, this would give the solution.

  11. I have two completed playthroughs and 2 almost finished ones.

     

    On my main run, I have 360 hours. 

    On the three other runs I have a total of almost 300 hours.

    Moreover, I think I have something like 100 hours divided over other runs.

     

    Which gives a total of almost 800 hours.

     

     

  12. It is no coincidence.

     

    There is a sidequest, where you will get a mystery egg if you give a Growlithe egg to a police officer. But to get a Growlithe egg, you need a female Growlithe and therefore the given Growlithe will always be female.
