    Messed up Simon's sidequest

    in Troubleshooting

    Posted

    I just found out about this sidequest myself, you mentioned a rod- does that mean I don't need to dive into the lake or anything? or are you not talking about a fishing rod? (If answering this is going to result in spoilers then don't tell me)


    also nice pfp, ViniGs

    You can't reaccess the hole under the grand stairway freely, changes a couple relationship points with Heather as well, bike maybe as well?

    wait, which route is this? because I can go freely down there and I apparently didn't find them all, also does that mean the little girl wouldn't have been killed too?

    wait are you SERIOUS??? I thought I found all of them when I found the one at the bottom of the hole, you're telling me I could have saved him?? dude I've come so far in the game, I don't want to reset but this sounds like I ruined most of the game and the side quest with the pokemon...   

    I thought you had to get rid of the vines before you could get to the other side of the mansion...

    It's definitely a system shock for people who haven't played in a while or don't have experience with more difficult pokemon games, but I promise it's very doable. Hard pokemon may just not be for you though, so don't force it too much. 

      

    The biggest thing for making battles is counters. you can read the full effects of the terrain and work out ways to turn it to your advantage, as well as tune your team to have a better advantage against the leaders type, or even try to counter specific pokemon that are giving you trouble.

    For Shelly in particular, one example would be using a pokemon with fake out (say persian for example) to prevent Illumise from setting up the rain, then transform the forest into a burning field with something like flame burst or lava plume. but there's many different pokemon and strategies that work. For what it's worth though, Shelly is generally recognised as one of the hardest leaders relative to the point in the game you fight her at. later on you have much more options to work with.

     

    I'd recommend heading over to the mod market and picking up expscale from Aironfaars mod box, which lets you prevent yourself from going over the level cap, and then multiply your XP gain so that you can easily train up new pokemon to swap in for fights

    I was thinking about doing that with my Liepard but I didn't want to go all the way back to reteach it the move especially since its level is too low now, but I'll give it a shot, along with those mods, I appreciate it. I really don't want to stop playing it because it's too difficult, I'm really into the plot and everything so that's where most of my frustration was coming from; not just that I couldn't win but that I also couldn't progress the story.

    I really liked this game to start off with, and I still do, I really want to like it like I did at the start, but the difficulty is asinine! I've literally spent  two hours trying to beat the Lapis gym because the AI spams attacks and the game's mechanics are generally so unbalanced. I don't know if it's supposed to be ridiculously difficult or if it's just been too long since I've played Pokemon, but it's a little insane to give gym leaders six pokemon if they're all going to be so close to the player's level cap. I've had to resort to reloading the game every time the slightest thing goes wrong because if I'm not perfect, I'm not going to win the fight.  If anyone has any suggestions on what to do, I'd gladly take them, I'm just sick of dreading the next boss fight because I know it'll take me three hours to prepare for it.

    I really just want to enjoy the game and the story and atmosphere, but these insane boss battles are sucking all of the fun out of it. I'm at the point where I feel like im never going to be able to progress past this gym because my pokemon get one shot by that stupid Anorith and I don't have any pokemon that can combat it. Like, I get that it's realistic, a Gym Leader shouldn't be a walk in the park to beat, but it shouldn't be IMPOSSIBLE either, and that's where I'm at right now.


    Also I realized I put this in the wrong category but I don't know how to change it and it's probably really obvious but I'm just so frustrated that I'm not thinking clearly enough to find it
