Filthy Casual

I'll need to use it on her. She got the modest nature why RNG. Still, it'll be nice to have her on the team.

Chapter 16: Orchedy the Threat After taking Shaman up to the mountain to heal, we decided to a bit of exploring. We went into a cave, where we found something... ...unexpected. After exploring, we went back to receive our obvious Shaymin... ...except we never got it. As it turns out, it would rather be with Orchedy, who didn't do anything. Honestly, though, I'm fine with that. It makes her character stand out more. However, that didn't mean we wouldn't get the chance to catch something else! If you insist on putting a bunch of legendaries in your game, this should be the absolute earliest you do it. I personally would have had Uxie be caught here, as Uxie isn't too strong, but Mesprit is still a decent choice. Thank goodness for Timer Balls! Rather than give us time to savor our victory, however, Orchedy immediately challenged us to a battle! It was time to fight! Having fought, we saw that we had some spectators: the Celebi! They decided to thank us for our troubles. Orchedy was allowed to keep Shaymin, even receiving a Gracedia Flower. We received... ...well, Ira (Latias) is officially even more broken. However, that wasn't all. Even Chan got something. Of course he would! I actually forgot that Latias had joined us in order to find her brother. We may be doing that next time, as we were brought back to the future soon after. Next time, we will be continuing with our adventure! Current Team

I kind of assume it meant that it would be coming out today, as tomorrow is more than 24 hours. However, only time will tell. Also, there was this.

I've decided to cancel the idea. After hearing Zarc's point, I don't want to spoil the game for anyone curious. I'm sorry for the inconvenience. This thread can be closed.

@GreenDecidueyeArrow, I'm keeping my team as it is, but I might see why type Delta Geodude is. It might replace Gigalith if it's good.

I'm just wondering if there's going to be a Mega Delta Haxorus

IT'S TIME! Seriously, I'm thinking my Zeta run may be put on hold for a bit. THIS is definitely a priority!

INSURGENCE IS COMING IN LESS THAN 24 HOURS! HOORAY!!!!! Seriously, though, I played through it for the first time a week ago, and so far, I love it. However, with the game dropping soon, I'll be finishing up the game. As such, do you want to see and hear my thoughts of the final game when it comes out? It would pick up after the last fight with Taen, the Perfection Cult Admin. Let me know your thoughts.

Chapter 15: Here Comes Team Not-Even-Trying Last part was really crazy! Chan had seemingly killed off Not-Blake after being taunted. Of course, we had to discuss the weight of his decision... ...and by that, I mean not do that, apparently. After all, Dino getting mad about his teacher's death is way worse than killing someone! By the way, Chan, there's no "we" in this situation. Just you. After that crazy event, what's the next logical step? Time travel, of course! We found two Celebi, who sent us back in time to a battlefield. Before I go a bit more into the story, I have to give the game a bit of credit. While I'm complaining about the legendaries, they haven't been too OP yet. Latias as it is is only a UU Pokemon, and Uxie just sucks. Cresselia was hidden pretty well, so it was still a nice reward. Imagine how bad it would be if we found an uber... ...we're going to, aren't we? After that incident, the Celebi decided to have us travel through time again. This time, to a mega stone... Now I may need to find a Larvitar... Still, it turns out this place is actually the Pokemon League of the past! Hakon took this time to explain the history of the region. Apparently, it used to be split into two, until the queen took over. Her people hated her, so she married the more popular king. It's an intriguing backstory. However, we are then sent through time again where we are shown something disturbing. After that hard scene, we were sent back to the present, where we asked a favor by the Celebi. While a new team is certainly scary, we decided to head out and stop them! We were sent back in time, where... ...just look... Eventually, we ran into the leader of Team Shadow... ...Hooded Melia from Rejuvenation! Seriously, though, we actually found a weakened Croagunk while chasing her. She'll never be used, but Toxicroak is one of my favorite Pokemon. We eventually made it up, where we found Shaymin being tortured. It was time to fight! It was around this time that their leader, Olvin, explained his plan, and honestly, it's convoluted. He planned to have Shaymin inhale toxic air, thus causing her to create an explosion of energy. This would cause the fireworks we found in the mountain to explode, destroying the nearby town... ...which makes you wonder why they wouldn't just use C4, but okay, I guess... ...let's just get to the fight... After defeating them, we managed to rescue Shaymin! We decided to bring her to a flower bed to heal. Next time... ...oh, who am I kidding, the game's probably going to give us Shaymin, isn't it? Current Team

Chapter 2: Character Building This part, I'm going to be extremely positive. We started off the episode by heading down to the next town. As we got there, we noticed a Hypno looking sad. We learned that her child decided to play with a trainer's Psyduck! We told her about it, and she certain seemed thankful, even getting us a new HM in Strength! As you also can see, we indeed got a new teammate. Meet Justice the Riolu (female)! We eventually decided to visit the Legend Researcher, who was looking for legendary Pokemon in a cave. I can take this time to appreciate the little things that make this game awesome. First, the environments: The graphics are nothing too special, but they are used in a way which makes the region feel unique. I appreciate that the environments themselves are more varied. Second, the characters in this game are awesome. Even NPCs get personality! Take this guy, for example: In fact, she was one of the Rangers we fought. Details like this make me smile. However, it goes even further! I love looking at stuff like this! It makes everything feel more alive! Regardless, we ended up finding the Legend Researcher. With the local gym leader, they actually found a legendary! What kind of power would it- ...oh... it sucks... Still, if there was a legendary I would want to see now, it would be this one. Unown sucks enough to be put at this portion of the game. After winning, the gym leader decided he wanted to fight us. As such, next time, we'll be fighting the gym leader! Who else should we catch? What should his/her name be? It's up to you! Current Team

If you can also go back and get a steel type, that would really help for the fight. Either Klingklang or Magneton do extremely well, and if you keep Mirror Shot on Magneton, the next gym becomes a joke.

Challenged!

I definitely agree with you that this is one of the weaker points in Rejuvenation. However, I would argue that there is one weaker plot point, and that's when Ren decides to join Team Xen. Granted, we don't know what Crescent told him, but I have always found it silly that Ren would join the same people he though killed Melia, especially after swearing to get stronger for her sake. Having said that, your run has been extremely fun to read so far! I love how you give alternate ideas if you are not a particular fan of something! It's a better fun for it, and it makes it an interesting read. I'm a bit curious, though: now that you are a bit farther into the game, what are your thoughts on Amanda vs Amaria at this point? I personally feel as if Amanda is a definite improvement, but it's around this point she starts to show signs of Amaria's old personality (mainly being extremely clueless). I mainly say that because I always saw Amanda (at least at the very beginning of the game) as more irresponsible, albeit a bit naive.

Pretty much my reaction when I played this game the first time. It didn't help in my case that I found and caught Cresselia. That thing became a goddess pretty quickly.

Chapter 14: Identity Crisis After making our way back to the city, we decided to head out to the Gym Leader's gathering... ...on Sunday. I didn't want to put up with that nonsense any longer, so I set the clock to Sunday, then decided to head off! We eventually made it to Clay City, the home of the party. While doing some exploring, we found another TM we shouldn't get until the end of the game. We also found out that the ground type gym leader resides in this town! As we went to the party, we found something unsettling... That's right! Not Blake decided to invade the party! We went ahead to meet the other gym leaders, and frankly, it shows a huge problem with Full Moon: the lack of an individual identity. Take the above image, for example. We have another butler version of El and a DJ Arclight. We already know that Chan's sprite is Gary, and I'm also pretty sure Orchid's sprite is inspired by Heather. Luna's Mom is basically Ciel. We also already know that Lavius is Blake and Lavia is Lucia, one of the female Reborn playable characters. However, it gets worse. You see that man on the left? That is the real dragon leader, Chan's teacher, and he looks just like Solaris. That flying type leader is just a normal NPC in RSE with wings. We then get to the Elite Four... HOLY SHIT, THEY EVEN GOT GEARA! Aside from the champion clearly being the real leader of Team Lightning (why else would they be everywhere in this building despite being called out on the news), Geara's blatant color swap is insulting... ...but it's not even close to as insulting as this: Unfortunately, the shenanigans don't stop there. While we were trying to stop Lavius, we noticed that these "Order of the Unown" grunts were pallet swaps of the Cultists from Reborn, attitudes and all! There's just no originality to this game! Still, it didn't stop Luna from giving an inspiring speech. Luna, you know very well that we... So close... Apparently, though, that wasn't enough, as he had one more card to play... ...wait, where's the trump card? You know I have an Arcanine, right? He even has Flamethrower... ...really? After that "intense" battle, Chan came to "save" us... Of course, despite Lavius's best attempts, he couldn't coax Chan into killing him. After calling him and his brother an orphan, it would have to take more than that to get him to snap. You'd have to be really thin skinned to- GOD DAMN IT CHAN! If Episode 2 was one step forward, then Episode 3 was two steps backward. From its long and overbearing backtracking to its laughably early introduction to the Mega Ring, this episode is a giant disappointment. It says a lot when the game not only throws a Salamance towards you (even if it starts as a Bagon), but also gives you the opportunity to get both Latias (which you are given regardless) and Uxie. Still, I'm going to remain as optimistic as I can. Next time, we will confront Chan about ridiculous decision! Current Team

Did you patch your game? I just tried it out, and it works fine for me. TRY THIS.rxdata

Can you post your game.rxdata file here?

Chapter 13: You Would... After defeating Luna's mother for the second gym badge, we went ahead to stop Team Lightning from invading Berro. Along the way, however, we got an awesome evolution! When we made it to our destination, we were shocked to discover that Team Lightning had taken over the whole town... ...except for these two. I guess it really doesn't matter if they are free, huh? They're just NPCs. Still, we ran into none other than Redi. Furious at our presence, he challenged us to a battle! Needless to say, the results of the battle didn't please Redi. He gave us an ultimatum. Of course, Luna didn't know about any "artefacts". She certainly wouldn't ever tell Redi about Chan's artifacts, but luckily, that's not what Redi asked. Even better for us, however, was that the man with the Zoroark came back to save the day! As it turns out, Hakon here helped free everybody else. Without any options left, Redi had no choice but to- -did you just say Darkrai? Oh, you would have my all time least favorite legendary! I hate this thing! Dark Void in tandem with its ability is way too good! And guess what... Without any backup plans, Redi had no choice but to flee. We had won the day! However, Hakon had left us. We decided to... to... ...it happened again, didn't it? You would... Next time, we're going to head back to Luna's house to continue our adventure! Current Team

@Ttimeismetime, as seki said, you need to patch your version to get it working. However, I have taken the liberty to get the puzzle done for you: Game.rxdata You'll see that your Greninja and Salazzle now have less health. I had to do the puzzle all over again, so I needed to fight the Pinsir. Also, your Greninja now knows Substitute instead of Rock Smash. I brought an extra Rock Smash slave (don't worry, it's no one in your main party). Might I recommend to get a sixth member? I would personally recommend training up an Electric type such as Manectric. If you do the side quests, however, you can try and train up a Magnemite. I would also recommend that you get the EXP Share when you have the chance. If you investigated Melia's bag where her "remains" were back in Amethyst cave, you can find her room key, which opens her room back in Gearen. It contains the EXP Share.

Chapter 12: Officially Broken Before we could challenge our mother, we were encouraged to go shopping for new clothes. As we did, we noticed the drastic stylistic change in our clothing! As we were walking out, though, we met a familiar face. You know what comes next... After the battle, the mysterious man ran off, leaving us to our gym battle in what was admittedly a really cool setting! It was time for a battle! Having won the battle, we received a multitude of prizes! After receiving our gifts, we heard some dreadful news: Without hesitation, we decided to head back and investigate! Next time, we will be confronting Team Lightning once again! Current Team

Chapter 11: Chan gets Owned After exploring through the mountain, we happened across a town containing Luna's parents! Of course, we were ready to... to... ...who are you again? After that little escapade, we decided to visit some of the marts in order to do some shopping... ...and come on, these moves are way too good! Still, we easily accepted them, and explored a bit more. Here is what we found... After exploring, we found one more thing: That's right! The gym leader was none other than Luna's Mom! As it turns out, her ace is a Mega Gallade. We decided to invite our friends over in order to watch the battle, when we received an unexpected challenge. Alright, that seems interesting! We haven't fought her yet. Let's see how it goes! We then decided to head out to Luna's mother's house, where we met her father. He challenged us to a battle! After the battle, Luna's father learned that Luna was dating Chan. This caused him to say a couple words to Chan, but let's be honest. With this game's awful dialogue, there's no way he could say- HOLY SHIT! So far, this is by far the best quote to come out of any character in the whole game. Without much dialogue, Luna's father has established himself as a caring and protective man who wants what's best for her daughter, while allowing her to be herself. It's an awesome piece of dialogue. It also helps that it's at Chan's expense. Next time, we will take on Luna's mother for our next badge! Current Team

Before we officially begin the LP, I have some rules to set: 1) You are allowed to suggest any and all Pokemon you wish. It is then my job to catch them (unless it is an event choice in which one of them is left behind. Then I have no choice but to leave one of them behind), as well as use certain members you suggest. With tiebreakers for event Pokemon, I am the one with the tie breaking vote. 2) When you recommend Pokemon, please remember to also leave nicknames. I will be unable to catch the Pokemon if I don't have a nickname. 3) If I do not use your nickname immediately, don't worry! I will do my best to make sure you are included, as well! Without further ado, let's get right into the play through! Chapter 1: Wishful Beginnings Having played Omicron before, I am so excited for this game! My Omicron team is one of my top teams of all time! I remember it extremely well! I had: As such, I'm extremely excited to see who all of you think I should use. Personal bias aside, however, we decided to start off the game by naming our trainer: Our journey began on a rather dark note, with our Mom fighting off a mysterious new team: Team Asgard. Funny enough, I have no clue what to expect from them. I played Omicron, so I encountered Team Olympus. We'll see what to expect in due time. Because of the impending presence of Team Asgard, Professor Oak decided to give us a starter. We decided to take... After collecting our starter, we decided to head out to the lab. An intern named Jeremy stopped us and gave us some Pokeballs for our journey. Eventually, we made it to the lab, where we found someone waiting for us. We eventually made it into the lab, where we were tasked with finding a boy named Jake. We met him, and he told us a bit about his character. He respects the heck out of our mother, who is the Champion of the region. However, what separates him from other rivals is his "swag". Indeed, he won't stop saying "swag", and to Suzerain's credit, it does make us immediately hate him. However, we always have the option to turn it off. Therefore, should we turn off swag, or leave it on? With that, this episode ends. Next time, we will begin catching some Pokemon! Who should we catch? What should their names be? It's up to you!

Chapter 10: Wait Untill Sunday to Progress... Before we moved on with the story, we decided to explore the area a bit more. Luckily, I found something vital to the team. After exploring, we went to talk to Kain and Chan. They told us... ...well... ...and guess what... YOU ACTUALLY HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL SUNDAY! Let's ignore that "Sunday" wasn't capitalized for a bit. Yes, I decided to move my clock ahead. Why? Because there is no reason the letter shouldn't appear! For me, personally, it also is jarring to see a letter delivered on a Sunday, as where I'm from, the Post Office is generally closed. Nonetheless, we received the letter, only to be bombarded by dialogue. We ended up learning my suspicions were correct, and those two people were Luna's parents. She says she doesn't want to forgive them, as they were "mean" to her, which is certainly laughable, given that she is dating her former bully. Still, we also learned some sad news... Kain would have to say goodbye for a bit. We ended up traveling for a bit, where we saw something jarring... After collecting our goodies, we headed out to a mountain, where... OH COME ON! Still, a legendary is a legendary, and we caught it. He won't ever be used, but he can at least enjoy the box. We ended up traveling through an extremely boring and short mountain, where we found Chan was waiting for us. As we were heading out, however, we noticed that Ariëtta was being attacked. Mary would greatly enjoy the free EXP with Thunderbo- -oh, come on, game! You're not even trying now! During the search, we saw something even more infuriating! Just to clarify: we only have one badge at this point, and we are seeing two of the best competitive Pokemon families in the game! We eventually found the lovers, who... ...were just 50 feet to the left... ...and everyone just left afterwards... ...I'm sorry, but what was the point of that? Next time, we'll continue on with our adventure! Current Team
