Filthy Casual

I'll vote Conkeldurr.

I only mean choose between one of the two. Of course, all of this is only optional, and you can choose if you want to box anyone or keep your team the same, but personally, I would box Nidoking for either Froslass or Roserade (your choice). You already have a powerful ground type in Swampert, and don't want to add too much to your ground weakness. Also, Hydreigon's not in the game yet.

Don't worry about it! Usually, if a mod sees it, they'll move it to the appropriate section. Mistakes happen. Having said that, I'd still say that your best bet is either Roserade or Tropius (preferably Roserade). Having said that, I've been thinking about alternatives, and perhaps an ice type could help? Have you considered adding something such as a Froslass? That can be an excellent Pokemon if you use it correctly.

If you're looking for a feasible replacement, I'd say replace Nidoking with either Roserade or Tropius (although I'd say preferably Roserade). That will balance your team out nicely.

So I've been playing through E17 for a bit, and after the Serra battle, it has become abundantly clear my team needs improvements. I've been using Pokemon I've never used before this whole time (except for the starter), but I want to add some more members soon. Below is my team, along with movesets (as natures can be changed down at 7th Street). Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks (as well as you, @Hooligan! As for Mimikyu, I sent you a PM.

EDIT: I think this topic double posted somehow. Sorry about that! If a mod could delete the other one, that would be appreciated.

That's a weird way of saying Filthy. But what do you think, Anstane?

So I've been doing some breeding for E17 on a rather rare encounter, and would be happy to give some away if you want them...

Noivern? You mean Noibat?

Chapter 38: Heartwarming Reunions Well, it's been a while, hasn't it? I did say that I'd be returning to this as soon as E17 came out! I'm really looking forward to continuing with this series, especially with the new content! However, there's now an additional rule I must put in place: All spoilers for E17 must be put in spoiler tags! For example, when there is new stuff for E17, I will be doing this: As such, let's begin with the return of Temere's adventure! After Temere defeated Ciel, he decided to take some time off. He wanted to spend some time with his Pokemon, as he never really got to bond with them as much as he did with his Rejuvenation team. One look at his Torterra, Bonsai, and he realized that he couldn't leave his Rejuvenation team on the side anymore... ...so he called Melia. Temere was still wary, as he didn't want to risk too many of his trusted friends to this dastardly Lin. As such, he only requested for a few. Let's say hello once more to some old friends from the Rejuvenation run... With many members of his team now reunited, he finally returned to the city of Reborn, where things were quite different. Rather than the dirty, depressing and grimy streets he became accustomed to, everything was now bright and cheerful! Indeed, he felt a lot of Grand Dream City vibes. In fact, as he entered the Grand Hall, he ran into yet another familiar face; none other than Ame herself! Before we could catch up, however, Ame still had some paperwork to fill out. Unfortunately, Temere overheard what was being discussed, and... ...well... Hey, he became a member of the E4! Good for him! It's nice to see that hard work pays- ...oh, yeah. El... Letter...? ...wait! Laura was an E4 member until she was mysteriously fired! That explains why! Except there's one problem... ...if Ame's so concerned, why doesn't she just contact her herself? There's nothing stopping her from going to Laura and asking "Hey, what's up?" Something I've noticed is that Reborn Ame's style of leadership is a bit hands off... ...regardless, Ame gave us a task; find Victoria, Adrienn, and DJ Arclight, and bring them here. We quickly went off to find the trio. First, we ran into Adrienn, who seemed to be much busier... We waited a bit for Adrienn to finish xyr conversation with the people. Afterwards, xe finally noticed us. Adrienn explained that while we were going on our adventures, xe had been helping clean the city by working with the citizens of the region. It had been tiresome, but ultimately, to xem, it was worth the effort. We informed him that we would be meeting up for a meeting at the grand hall, only to continue our quest. After finding Adrienn, we turned our attention to none other than DJ Arclight! While he was willing to see what Ame needed, he first needed to follow an anonymous lead on something. He said he would meet up with us afterwards. This left only one person left... ...Victoria. In all seriousness, Temere was happy to see her again, especially after how nice she was to him, despite everything that happened up until Apophyll. Victoria had explained to Temere that after Kiki's death, Victoria had taken it upon herself to run the academy. Despite her lack of confidence, Victoria had been doing an excellent job. In fact, she even volunteered the students to clean up Reborn City. According to her, while it would have been something Kiki wouldn't have agreed on, Victoria felt it necessary to help the citizens of Reborn. Temere proceeded to tell her to meet Ame soon. While he was leaving, however, Victoria told him something that made him blush... On a side note, I'm not a huge fan of having the comma be the end of the dialogue box. That's just personal preference, however. Of course, you probably noticed that Team Meteor grunt next to us. As he was leaving, Temere noticed the grunt. As he went to talk to him, Temere was disheartened to learn that it was none other than Simon. Hey, Simon! What are you doing here! I thought Tara would be with- ...well that got awkward... Apparently, Saphira had killed Tara during the raid of the Meteor base. Simon was so disheartened that he decided to leave Team Meteor forever. With that said, Temere decided to head down to the Grand Hall. Ame had told Victoria, Adrienn, and Temere what she told DJ Arclight not too long ago; Team Meteor had a hidden base in Reborn City this whole time. They had used a fake Devon Corp branch in order to operate from the inside. However, that wasn't all. Victoria seemed extremely determined, as she would finally be willing to avenge Kiki. Even Ame seemed ready, as she finally decided to join the fight, proclaiming this: Indeed, this means Ame is the champion. Only one problem... ...there's now even less of a reason for her to not check in on Laura! Seriously, she's part of your league! Why not just ask her why she decided to quit if it's "weird" as it seems? Despite these questions, next time, we'll be raiding the Team Meteor base in order to put a stop to their plans once and for all! Which six Pokemon should we use? Who should we catch? What should their names be? It's up to you! Current Team

On a side note, Pokemon Conquest is a criminally under appreciated game. Mystery Dungeon is my favorite series of side games, but I think Conquest is the best stand-alone side game in the series. Looking forward to reading this!

You're welcome to select any non-legendary Pokemon you want. Just keep these things in mind: 1) Guardians correspond to legendary Pokemon, meaning their types are going to be similar (but not match up completely) to those legendaries 2) Guardians have slightly altered movesets, even if their stats are identical to their normal counterparts. For example, while a normal Gigalith would learn Stealth Rock, Guardian Gigalith learns Toxic Spikes instead. 3) The Guardians are more protectors of local Pokemon. They want to guard them from the humans who endangered their habitats during the war. Still, that sounds like a fun idea! With that being said, what kinds of Guardians would you like to see in Pokemon Empire? We'd love to hear your suggestions!

I understand your point, but I personally disagree. Pokemon are going to naturally have stronger matchups than others. For example, Marshtomp effectively walls Julia, especially if it's ability is Damp. That doesn't mean it shouldn't be a starter. Similarly, not many people like Wormadam. People aren't going to naturally flock to it.

I need this Pokemon for an important side quest in E17...

For those of you who have joined the club, welcome! For the first official post, we'll be showing off a couple of the shiny Guardians! First, let's introduce ourselves to shiny Guardian Gigalith! For this one, I wanted to give it more of a "rustic" look, in order to give it more of a worn-down vibe. As for our second one, I give you shiny Guardian Dedenne! I don't want to give out too much away, but all I'll say is that it's shiny is quite similar to another legendary Pokemon's... With that being said, what other Guardians do you want to see included in the game? What would be their typings, level up moves, etc.? Let us know down below!

Here's a hint:

This is a really cool mod! Props to you for doing this! Also, on a side note, RIP Swampert's cry.

Crap! Sorry about that! Forgot about that page! I'll go there next!
