Filthy Casual

Final Chapter: Faith Reborn After our encounter with Wilfre, we were invited to Medio's gym. Of course, he had been waiting for us for a very long time! It was then that he would explain the rules of the fight. Apparently, we would be fighting Medio himself! However, that wouldn't be all. We would be doing this for our next badge! This made me extremely excited. I had none other than ESPN (Muk) at the front. He was going to easily- ...oh no... For winning, we got... ...damn it, I can't make fun of that design! It's actually really good, especially with the inverse battle which just occurred. We even got the TM for Dazzling Gleam! However, we were still forced to make a choice to save either Sky or Wilfre. We decided to go with... Just as things hit their lowest, however, it got even worse: Poor Hakon was beginning to turn. One can only imagine the long term ramifica- -HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Oh, I'm sorry. I know it's supposed to be a serious scene, but he gets healed almost immediately! Supposedly, they put him in a machine, and it at least stabilizes him (at least until the next mandatory battle). While we were rushing to get him healed, however, we ran into none other than Gold. He was telling us about a "suspicious looking man" walking by. However, as we know, that could mean anyone. There's no reason to think that- ...say no more. When we met up with Professor Gobline, he informed us that is was he who created the Shadow Walkers. This only meant we could do one thing to stop his nefarious plans... ...pull him one step to the left. I knew it would be a great idea to save my last Master Ball! This is the last team member we will be catching this entire play through, sadly enough... ...but it wasn't time to rest yet! Just as the Professor rage quit on us, Wilfre burst onto the scene. In his weakened state, it was time to finally finish this game! With Wilfre's ultimate defeat, he reverted back to his original form. Despite his annoying "kid-like" dialogue, we managed to bring him back home. Then... ...everything ended. Esteban should be pleased in the direction Full Moon is going. This episode was non-stop fun! I can forgive a game's terrible plot if the game itself is fun and enjoyable, and this episode delivers in spades! I'll say this about Full Moon: I have been unfair to it. It's not horrible, as I said it is. Instead, it's just not my type of game. Full Moon gives you access to way too many powerful Pokemon right from the start, including TMs, Mega Stones, and items. However, I also find that similar to SM/XY, where they gave you Revives for free whenever you were about to enter an important battle (cough cough HAU cough cough). This could be a good game to entice casuals into the world of Reborn-esque games if they are also looking for a laughably bad plot. However, before this game ends, I would like to spend this time to thank every team member who helped on the journey. In the Box: Current Team: With that, I'd like to thank you one more time for joining me on this exciting adventure. Before I go, however, there's one more thing I forgot to mention! Before taking Hakon to the hospital, Luna said she had to look for Chan, as they would need all the allies they could get. Because of this, the first place she decided to go look for him was in... ...the Reborn Region??? The End

Chapter 33: Kingdom Hearts's Light! After a long boat ride, it was time to head out to our next quest: exploring an island! There, we would head out to Tiwi Town, where we would hope to receive another badge. However, as we were heading over, Sky noticed something eerie. You notice that black puddle in the background? They happen to be everywhere on this island! To make matters worse, they also can... ...shapeshift? They're Heartless, aren't they? THERE IT IS! Freaking Sora is now in Full Moon as a Heartless! That's quite silly to me! However, the female trainer happened to be none other than Luna... ...strange... Before we could ponder that question any further, however, it was time to be introduced to another new character. Oh, look, I'm sure it's going to be another admin of Team- Never mind, I'm excited again! Seriously, who did these sprites? That takes serious talent to pull off! We continued to venture into the island, where we found none other than the man himself, Hakon. Hakon happened to have a great deal of difficulty fighting off these Heartless Shadow Walkers (get used to hearing that, by the way). As such, we quickly dispatched of them with Juggernaut (Chesnaught), who has now caught up with the rest of the team. I immediately recognized Not-Butler El, who happened to be the Fairy gym leader from the party, Medio! ESPN (Muk) is going to have a field day with this guy! We decided to come up with a plan to defeat these threats back at his gym. However, before we made it there, we were confronted by Wilfre. In an insane plot twist, that shadowy figure is none other than Medio's corrupted son. We didn't have time to waste, however. We had to stop Wilfre from causing more havoc. With the help of Gold, we decided to continue our search for Wilfre. However, when confronting him, we found that he had another powerful ally on his side... Needless to say, this new discovery got Gold a bit excited. While he was preparing himself, Luna met up with Hakon and Lumos to stop Wilfre! GIVE YOUR ARTIST A RAISE! Unfortunately for everyone involved, however, Gold decides to get cocky, leaving Hakon to fend himself against two Shadow Walkers. This left us with one task left: to take on Wilfre! Unfortunately for us, despite our victory, Gold's cowardice cost Hakon... ...well... Of course, Wilfre was forced to flee. However, he took Sky with him, giving us a cryptic message. Where is the Theatre, you may ask? I'm getting a feeling I'm about to end the game soon. Here's what I'm going to do. Next time is going to be a ridiculously long episode, as I plan on it being the final one. Let's just hope we can get through it without any more major injuries (because let's be frank here; no one stays dead in this game. Even not-Corey's going to come back somehow). Current Team

Interesting topic! Let me set the stage for you: It was my first time playing the game. My team consisted of a Greninja, Tangrowth, Misdreavus, Swoobat, Weezing, and horribly under leveled Hariyama. I was going up against V8 Angie. Needless to say, I got blown away. It got so bad that I dropped Rejuvenation completely, deleting my save. It wasn't until months later when I started another save file. I decided to build a good team to counter Angie. I started off by getting a Chespin, as I really like Chesnaught. Next, I found the Dusk Stone, allowing me to get my Mismagius. I found a Litleo which would provide a good resistance and HM slave. Finally, I trained up another Hariyama. However, that still wasn't enough. My Swoobat was still useless, and it would die immediately. I decided to try and see what else was in the frozen dimension. While looking, I found a Thick Fat Spheal. This gave me an idea: I decided to train it up to a Walrein, allowing me time to heal party members as well as paralyze with Body Slam. As it turns out, that's exactly what I was missing. After months, Angie finally went down. I'm always going to be thrilled with finding a way to defeat Angie's BS team, feeling as if I defeated a true threat.

@Jackass @Sparky Cool! First, here's what I have for my trainer sprite: Second, here is the team I've built up: I'll take the Rainbow card template. I'd like to register under my Showdown name, F1lthy. Thanks!

@DW~ How's this?

I'm going to be entering this league with some of my favorites (as well as some qualified Pokemon I haven't used before). Here's who I have for my elite 8 so far:

@ForeverGrinding Alright, here's the deal. I couldn't beat Ciel with your team. It seems to be too hard, as you said... ...so I got you another team member. I put this team member in Box 2. You'll want to start the fight with Stealth Rocks, allowing Ciel to become more damaged every time. Bench Scrafty for this member, and Ciel should be much easier. Also, you'll notice that this member has something that will really power up your Helioptile of yours... Game.rxdata

It's only been one minute though...

You can post the Game.rxdata file here, and we can help you.

Oh, you could have won with that! That's too bad! Still, I hope you end up taking her out eventually! EDIT: Yeah, you probably would have had to bench Scrafty with a Gigalith or Stealth Rock Crustle, but still...

What's your team? It would help us if we saw it.

It's possible. He's going to need to use Crustle as his ace, as well as set up the rain. It'll be hard, but it's doable. Check out @Jess's run if you don't believe me. She'll be able to explain it better than I can.

Chapter 32: Character "Develope"ment I'm not going to lie, I'm legitimately excited to talk about this episode! It's the most fun I've had with this game so far! We started off by walking back to Chan's house. Fortunately, with Rock Climb, it was extremely quick. When we made it there, we found Ariëtta waiting for us. She asked if we were sad about Chan leaving us. Being the sensible people we are, I decided to tell her no, as Chan was a stalker to begin with. Ariëtta chalked it up to Luna being sad, however. This is when she started to share some secrets with Luna... That's right, she's a bisexual! Apparently, she's had feelings for Argile for the longest time. Honestly, I'm fine with that... ...but what I'm not fine with is this: I'm hoping that once there's a period when I don't see a typo somewhere... Regardless, we ended up running into none other than Sky, who requested our help once more. With her, we travelled through the cave with ease. I can take this time to talk about what I liked: Eventually we made it through, where we had another totally not pointless moment of character development... As Sky ran to get Lumos, Luna decided to quickly make her way to the boat. When we arrived, we were followed by none other than Gold! We decided to take this time to do a bit of exploring, finding our comrades instead! Among them included... ...REDI?! Man, you weren't kidding when you said you were changing! I almost completely forgot about you. You look great! After catching up with everyone, we were offered a quick challenge. That's right! It was time to take on Zeno! Not only did we win, but we received a great prize for our victory! Ghillie is going to enjoy spending time in the box. Next time, we'll be doing a bit more exploring! Current Team

I already did a Team Building request, but how is this:

Chapter 21: Psyched Out After a brief training session, Temere decided to meet up with Cain in order to rescue the children. Cain, of course, didn't want Temere's help. After all, why would he want his help after his behavior in Apophyll? However, Cain realized he didn't have a choice if he wanted to save the children. As such, the duo made their way into an abandoned building. Apparently, this "Yuyeru" building was the old economic powerhouse of Reborn until earthquakes destroyed the building. The duo explored the building, taking out Meteor grunts along the way until they happened to run into another friend: Indeed, it looked like the children were being held there. With Charlotte's help, we were able to open the lock to the next room. Unfortunately for us, however, we had learned an unexpected twist... According to Team Meteor, the earthquakes were not natural, but instead caused by the evil organization. After quickly dispatching both of them, it was decided that the two would continue up the stairs. There was only one thing to do left: take down Sigmund! Despite our battle, Cain wasn't happy with the outcome. He seemed distressed over Heather's emotional state. Of course, before we weren't allowed to stay down for too long, as we still had to save Anna. Unfortunately, Sigmund got exactly what he wanted with both the Ruby Ring and Amethyst Pendant. As he ran off, we were left to try and comfort a horrified Anna. Before we end the episode, however, there is one more team member I would like to introduce you to: With that being said, next time, we'll be taking on the next gym leader! Who should we catch? What should their names be? Who should we use for the upcoming fight? Also, since we elected to use the shiny Venipede and Quagsire, what should their names be (if they have any at all)? It's up to you! Current Team

Chapter 20: The Filler Episode With our recent defeat of Aya, Temere was feeling on top of the world. He decided to spend his time by training and evolving a couple members! After doing our training, Temere decided to check in on the Aqua Gang, wanting to know if there was anything else they needed of us. Of course, Archer gave us a new objective: That's right! It was time to vanquish Team Magma once and for all! With DeFacto and Archer, Temere set his sights on Team Magma, decimating their guards with Cogsworth (Golett) and Corey (Crobat). The Magma leader, Maxwell, didn't seem to appreciate our intrusion. Maxwell was at first thrown off by our attire, thinking we were part of his gang, at first. However, as soon as Temere explained the situation, the mood changed quickly. Indeed, it was time to end the Magma Gang! With our victory, the Magma Gang was no more. We decided to celebrate by attaining some new team members! Next time, we will be rescuing the children! Who should we catch? What should their names be? Who should we box? Finally, and this is the most important question: It's up to you! Current Team

Chapter 31: Hilarious Hypocrisy When Luna finally confronted Olvin at the top of the tower, Luna was quite terrified to hear Olvin's master plan. Indeed, Team Lightning was going to use Zapdos as a means to defeat Team Lightning. This didn't sit well with Luna, however, who quickly said this: Of course, Luna had every right to speak. She didn't ever catch legendary Pokemon during her time... ...except if you count these Pokemon: Of course, we ended up catching Zapdos. This angered Olvin, who proceeded to kick us out of Team Shadow for our betrayal... ...or, he just walks away. Whatever, I suppose... ...still, Gold gave us something as a thank you gift! With that done, we decided to head back to Kepler City. There, we discovered our brother, Lumos, defeated Ariëtta for his next badge. Rather than battle him, however, we were instead thrust into a battle with Sky! It was time to fight! With another victory, we earned a new and unique prize: With this new HM, we will be able to fast travel across the region. Next time, we will be heading to the next town! Current Team

Chapter 19: Star Struck Temere had a newfound sense of determination as he left Apophyll Academy. He knew that he had to atone for his sins. After all, it was his obsession that cost Kiki her life. He ran towards the gate, where Cain was waiting for him. Cain looked at Temere for a bit, unsure whether or not he was stable enough to receive the key to the wasteland. He decided to test Temere with a battle! With Cain defeated, he decided to entrust Temere to the keys of the wasteland. However, before we did that, we got another team member! Say hello to the newest member of the team... As we were traversing through the wasteland, we happened to stumble across a house. Within this house was the mother of the replacement leader, Aya! She told us that her daughter had just finished up with a challenger, and was waiting for us in the next room. Unfortunately for us, that challenger happened to be none other than Fern himself. Fern started bragging to us how his new team, no longer limited to just grass types, easily decimated poor Aya. Right as it seemed like she was about to bust into tears, however, we met another new character. Meet Hardy, the rock type gym leader of Reborn. Apparently, he and Fern were never close friends, and always decided to antagonize each other. Fern had no time for that, however. Instead, he decided to challenge us to a battle! Despite our victory, we weren't done yet. There was one task left: to defeat Aya! After his victory, Temere was so excited that he couldn't help but give Starlight (Staraptor) a giant hug! This seemed to displease Fern, who wanted us to lose the battle. Next time, we won't be saving the children just yet, but instead catching new team members and finishing the Aqua Gang side quest. Who else should we catch? What should their names be? Which six team members should we use? It's up to you! Current Team

Chapter 30: "Maybe if you Ask Enough Times..." After our little escapade with Team Lightning, we decided that it was time to leave the city. Now, it would be up to us to head down to Kepler City and attain the next gym badge. However, during that meeting, Luna ended up saying something that has made me smile nonstop! That's right! She broke up with overly attached boyfriend Chan! Today, America has won! First, however, we had to drop Nello off at the academy... ...wait, isn't that the worst place possible? Team Lightning's Elia is currently the principal of the school! We're just giving him to them on a silver platter! Regardless of that nonsense, along the way, Luna ran into none other than Olvin. Olvin made another pointless attempt to coax us into Team Shadow. Of course, given how he tried to kill Shaymin, we said no... ...and then he asked again... ...and again... ...and AGAIN! Needless to say, we were forced to say yes, which I personally find ridiculous. For me, I'm immersed in a video game when I find the actions and decisions of the character to be believable. However, in this case, I'm only joining him so he can let me access the next area! Regardless, we eventually dropped off Nello at the academy, moving onward to Kepler City. There, we found Lumos and Sky once more! Luna informed everyone that she became an admin of Team Shadow, and because of course, everyone just seemed to accept it as if it was a perfectly normal reaction (I'm giving Sky and her brother a pass since they aren't aware of what Team Shadow has done, but Lumos liking them because "there's a ghost guy" is silly). Still, we were given another task! Along the way to the temple, we discovered a couple things: After our evolutions, we decided to investigate the temple. However, we instead ran into Olvin being harassed by a mysterious trainer... Oh, this will be interesting! I wonder what the creator has Gold using. Only one way to find out, as it was time for a fight! Despite his defeat, Gold would not go down without talking to us. He explained why he came to the region. Apparently, the temple we visited belonged to Zapdos. Olvin was going to capture it for his own nefarious deeds. As such, next time, we'll be trying to stop him! Current Team

@Doug Dimmadome Fixed! I've replaced Staraptor with Skarmory! Thanks for the tips!

@Doug Dimmadome, thanks for the tips! How about this?
