  1. Oh man Intense Mode, I gotta say not the best Christmas Gift a person can give themselves. But hey more power to you if you can make it through, I'm having enough trouble as it is on Normal Mode. You even chose the same trainer sprite as me which is pretty cool. Different Starter though.( I chose Turtwig, just so I could have a mon that natural learns Earthquake. Worth it), all I can say is good luck man.
  2. And now someone somewhere on this forum is plotting to write just that. Congrats! Well of course much like your profile pic, you're number 2 in this game.
  3. Aw man the flamer got deleted. I was actually kind of amazed someone was this upset at you for criticizing this game. Also, I said on DT's run and I'll say it here, Jan's doing an awful lot just to pad out going to the mountain. Like Geara and Zetta could have long since tossed NIm into the lava and we'd probably never know until it was far too late. Texen may very well have the dumbest hairstyle in a pokemon game. He has a severe case of helmut hair/cow lick. It's actually amazing. Obviously the only reason he's popular is money. Also Texen's gym battle, funny thing he's still FAR stronger than Keta was. Feel sorry for the poor sucker starting out that has to challenge him. The Aelita battle was par for the course for Rejuvenation, some of these battles are flat unfair. Either due to team selection of what is available (early game) or the opposing team having far better moves that what you could hope to have at the moment. Keta's battle with most of his mon's having elemental punches stuck out to me the most.
  4. Hey man keep your fantasies about Melia to yourself, this is a family forum! But real talk, your alternative plan was probably one of the funniest things in this run, you weren't kidding about going crazy with the editing. The whole sequence with Nim is a punch to the gut and not in a good way. It and the aftermath to the double battle really drive home how often the Pokemon battles in this game amount to nothing. It's kinda maddening. At least Melia put up a fight this time, though it helps her team had a pretty significant type advantage over Zetta and Geara's teams. Happily you only lost one Pokemon in the entire mountain sequence, at least you can take solace in that as you burn to death. Which is a pretty grim fate for anyone, especially the main character. Maybe Tesla and Amber can avenge you because I just realized with just about everyone else incapacitated or flat dead in some way, they're about the only ones left worth note.
  5. Truly Flounder is a cursed name like Zeppeli. Also this is the 2nd time Venam has team killed one of your mons, that's kinda morbidly impressive. She actually has a better track record against you than most of Team Xen discounting Madame X. Also pretty funny when you had Venam react to your dialogue and your Pokemon. I suspect your going to do quite a bit of that kind of editing for the next chapter. Crescent. . . I don't get Crescent. Like legit what is her deal man. . . .I'm half expecting her to be your real mother or your sister. I kinda want to see the fight with her, Saki, Adam, and Valarie if nothing else than to see them get bodied. Wonder what her team would be like, I know she at least has a Gothitelle. Time for the finale of the finale. Let's how badly things went with Melia charging in blindly like a damned fool.
  6. I mean you've wanted to murder Team Xen members since about Day one, you should be happy you finally got a chance! The involvement of your other Pokemon in this Mountain section is a great highlight, especially since most of them never see the light of day aside from very rare occasions. Very Fun. But the involvement of your human allies is the utter opposite. Making you feel redudant seems to be a running theme whenever any of them appear. Saki is honestly the worst in that scene, though not riding that rickety death trap is probably a godsend. Honestly I begin to wonder why this is a Pokemon game at times. But then we wouldn't have Rose so it balances out. . . mostly. Also don't sell yourself short, you've still got a few more times before you drive that particular joke into the ground. But not too many, you're on thin ice.
  7. You should mount Gustav on your shoulder like the gun the Predators use. Sure he's heavy but you can handle it, kinda maybe. Oh wow I forgot how stupid Madelis' reasoning for this whole thing was. Like there's this thing called fan mail lady. Also I'm still surprised the thing was made optional after we had to sit through that kidnapping cutscene earlier. Really feels like Jan wanted something for Amber/Tesla/Madelis to do in this section and was just flat uncertain on what to do. Probably could have had them join the Nim rescue effort but whatever. Also seeing Team Xen in action this update. . . I will never complain about any main Pokemon Game evil team EVER again. Like even the Plasma and Flare grunts were smarter than this. Also Jitto joins the legend killing club (also thank god for Imposter or that would been a death sentence), though to be fair Pounce is still the reigning champ with 3 under her belt.
  8. So for starters how painful was it doing all that editing? Especially at the end, that must have been a nightmare to work on. Also wow that's a lot of new pokemon (The Octillery gun gag is apparently amazingly underused, I think this is the first time I've ever seen it), it must be SIGNIFICANTLY easier to grind later in the game because I'm at gym 2 and to say it is painful trying to raise a team is an understatement. Also your assessment of Gen 7 Pokemon is spot on for better or worse. That ending to the chapter was beautiful in so many ways and I'm super excited for the rest of the finale (in a this is going to awesome kind of way, not even being funny here).
  9. I like how you can drag Taka along on these side quests, it's pretty great.
  10. They have quite a bit left. Note some of these battles are likely going to lead to long episodes. I'm honestly looking forward to their reactions to the false god.
  11. Well that side-quest sure was something, I completely forgot about Fake Nancy/Dimensional Chandelure fight. It honestly reminds me of the ghost Kiki fight from Reborn. Also once again Rose is outright broken against anything that isn't immune or resistant to her, which is a lot of things. She really does carry the team, along with Caesar and Chiller. Also RIP Ignacio, we barely knew you. . . literally. That's another dead water type, you know there's easier ways to get sea food right? Time to FINALLY go save Nim, no more distractions. . .hopefully. Plus Melia's infuriating hang ups. Should be interesting at the very least.
  12. I legit didn't know Haxorus could learn Surf, that's kinda cool. I just imagine Rose swimming through the water like Godzilla, it's pretty neat. This side quest was actually pretty enjoyable, a significantly less annoying version of a side character, a funny plot, and a new pokemon to go along. Anything to avoid the main plot, eh? It's probably for the best, you need all the preparation you can get. Also for Ruby Rising, I'm just here to see the reactions of your Reborn team when you get back.
  13. Maybe you should just hold off on doing side quests until your done with the main plot for an area. (Looking at the Conkeldurr battle and the Pokemon for Team AA, I honestly think that's Jan's intention, for better or worse) Trying to avoid it is costing more than actual doing the plot at this point. Also the rewards beyond a few exceptions are genuinely not worth it. This one certainly wasn't. RIP Blu-Ray and Fingers, taken way to soon, also RIP Ignacio. You're running out of water types dude, soon you won't be able to surf anywhere and boy would that be an embarrassing way to have to end a Nuzlocke. For the Ruby run, it's probably a lot harder to edit 3d images and all that. I do want to see how you handle the Delta Episode stuff. . . eventually.
  14. I have to agree, its honestly about stuff that the Penta-Op is ages away from.
  15. That mention of that Talonflame makes me hopeful of for the Reborn run being . . . reborn. Well as soon as you finish the Omega Ruby Run. (We are finishing this indeed. . . ) Melia's an idiot, Team Anti-Assist continues to be a bigger joke than the majority of Team Xen, and in general your life is terrible. Just another day in teh Aevium region! Also yeah these side-quests are ridiculous, I'm still reeling from the Kecleon one way back in Sheridan. (so many resets just to get one item. . . )
  16. Ah the memories of Shofu's battles with Bennett in Iolia Valley way back in the day. Dude got bodied the first time.
  17. I kind of get where he's coming from with the void, the stuff being shown their is interesting but I just wish it wasn't happening all at once. But everything else, yeah the way Shofu plays, he really should have waited until the full game is finished. Probably be easier on everyone involved. On the comments, like it's not like the Reborn (and other fan game) community's aren't open to criticism. See everything Commander does, but most of the comments are around the level of this game is garbage. It was like that for the major events of Rejuvenation Version 10 as well, but at least the comments haven't blown into all out war like they were for that playthrough.
  18. I like it, there's honestly not a lot of Rejuvenation fanart period. Always nice to have more.
  19. Like before last week, I would have agreed but now I'm a little suspicious lol. Sidequests and events galore this chapter. I like the secret Piplup event, I always did like the idea of wild starters as long as they were hard to find. Actually a lot of these side quests I've never even seen, though I tend to watch Rejuvenation through Shofu who is pretty bad about that sort of thing. Also said side quests deal with people I rather not have. The reward for the Sariah one is pretty wack, like wow. I updated from Version 10 midway through the 3rd Gym to fix a bug and I'm already seeing changes. Seems like the idea is to give you more pokemon options which I don't mind.
  20. "Space Invader". . . I'll take it! So in terms of team dynamics, it's basically just like you and your group in Rejuvenation, 1 guy does all the work and everyone else is just there. It's like poetry it rhymes. Also once again Chiller's Mirror Coat saves the day. I was kinda worried about that Groudon, but you handled it with shocking ease. The Eldest in general was pretty great, attitude wise she's almost like an old lady version of you with all those sick burns being handed out. And onto Aelita. . . . well at least she's not dead. But yeah that does bite considering Aelita is likely the second strongest trainer in the group right after you. Surely the assault on Valor mountain will be fine.
  21. And the Update-Bomb continues. I got Dimensional Manipulation, which apparently means I can turn PokeBalls into Pokecubes. Creative way to edit out dealing with that dumb puzzle, seems like half the game could be solved by you just walking up and punching someone.
  22. Honestly, I can understand why you're getting tired of this game. The train scene shows a lot of what's wrong with this game. Once again, your "companions" do absolutely nothing and just let the bad guys get away. Say what you will about Crawli, he at least fought. I think at the very least, there could have been a handful to Team Xen grunts there to keep Aelita and Melia busy. It'd help the scene immensely. I remember you actually fighting Nastasia in a double battle with Ren in earlier versions of the game (you vs Nastasia and Ren). She had a Ninetales, Chandelure, and one of those clone Deoxys. It's honestly not a team I pictured her using but it would explain why she was able to steamroll Crawli. Honestly we'll understand if you decide to take a breather from the game. We still have Derogatory to suffer for our entertainment, after all. Whatever you want do is up to you, but I would suggest Legends of the Arena. It's pretty fun but it's not nearly as popular, I think only Shofu has done a full playthrough of what has been released so far. It uses 4th gen mechanics and only uses Pokemon up to Generation IV, mostly.
  23. Wow you're just pumping these out like crazy, that eager to get through with this arc huh? Now poor Commander will never catch up at this rate! I'm kinda surprised your just now doing the Zygarde thing, but then I remember it's relatively recent thing that Jan added and you started with an earlier version of Rejuvenation. Texan being a joke is true, but to be fair he's far higher leveled than Keta ever was when you were first there. He's honesty on the level of a certain Ghost Gym Leader. Also the dude has a serious case of helmet hair, he should be a laughing stock for that alone. Honestly Aelita is a lot of fun most of the time, especially compared to Venam and Melia. I'm certain NOTHING bad will happen to her.
  24. It's in character for the guy, who may legit be the most evil dude in the game just behind Lin. Also yeah this episode was a disaster all things considered. Honestly Sirius is more like Ebony Maw, the guy that kidnapped Dr. Strange.
