Angie is sooooo hard oh my lord LOL. Finally beat it after lots of hours spent brainstorming and trying different mons so I was wondering what other people did for this fight. This could be strats, teams, specfic pokemon anything, and I'm talking about the fight in chapter 7 I think it is. I ended up going with a sand team with Dugtrio setting up sand, and then Golem&Barbaracle for damage. Angie's Arctovish and Jynx lead was giving so much trouble but I used Decidueye&Pangoro to double into the Arctovish, and then I'd get lucky with Jynx missing focus blasts trying to hit my rock men. I think my endgame was barely won with like Decidueye sucker killing Jynx, and the hero Staraptor winning the 1v1 vs RotomF with CC.

For me an insane mon that always magically gets on my team is Arbok. The early evolution along with intimidate for pivoting make it run through a lot of the early game, but in my playthrough it has been SO good in boss fights. I've been running something like Glare, Acid Spray, Screech, Sludge bomb to just debuff big threaths. Probably not underrated but I've been loving using the new dragon Leavanny. It's design is soooo sick, but I've been running Fell Stinger for the boost, and then Baton Passing it onto another teammate for some cool combos,

Beat Narcissa! Loving the game as always. I remember not liking chapter 3 with Marianette too much in the past, but it lowkey might be my favorite so far. Maria is just too precious, I love all her dialogue, and the nickname she gives you is hype. The Goldenleaf chapter was super fun too, the ghost hijinks in the pokemon center is always funny and the Espurr is a national treasure. In any case I've been trying to use pokemon I don't normally use, and although Hypno is a little freak of a pokemon he's been carrying hard. In the Maria fight I changed the field with Ominous Wind Dartrix, and then Hypno soloed with the hypnosis accuracy buff. Same thing for Narcissa, the hypnosis buff was insanely clutch along with Talonflame Flame Charge being partial ghost type and Decidueye doing all the damage. Beat it first try.

Made it to right at the start of chapter 3 before going into the Mansion and man I've been feeling pretty good about the difficulty so far, haven't had any trouble with any fights besides like Novae from the sidequests. But damn the Amanda fight right before she lets you go into the sewer was COOKING me, that Miltank was on something lmao. The battle AI can lowkey be pretty good sometimes and I like that a lot, was trying to go for paralysis hax against the miltank and was flabbergasted when she switched and used aromatherapy, into me getting smoked again. Happy with the difficulty and I know it only gets harder so that's cool! Some other things though: The new Sewaddle line - GOAT DESIGN NEW FAVORITE POKEMON The new CG's for story beats - FIRE, ZUMI IS THE GOAT Truck daddy - love the little tire splash art, really makes me feel like I'm playing Persona 4 I could be tripping but I feel the pacing is different, or maybe I'm just going through quicker since I know a lot.

Been playing version 13.5 and I just wanted a place to rant about stuff. Started from the beginning and omg the game's polish is incredible to see. I love the little animations and revamped areas it's so refreshing and feels so new. Like walking into Gearen Park goddamn it's so pretty, and why does the music go so HARD in there. Just beat Venam's gym and the change was really cool. I love the new look of her gym I think the new one reflects her character a lot more than the previous one where you'd just mix colors. I'm liking the help center changes where you can start the quest at the actual quest NPC, it's something really small but it helps the world feel more alive and can take away some of the hassle of having to go back and forth. Playing with passwords is something that made Pokemon Desolation SO FUN for me, and I'm happy that it's a new feature in this game along with Spice Scent. Loving the game so far and I'm so happy as someone who's been playing since like version 8, Team Rejuv are the goats. Will probably update as I get farther with random hype moments. Also Mr. Luck is spooky.

Mhm that's just how it is the AI has always had crazy hax and it definitely feels like they reads items. In Amber's normal mode fight for me her Camerupt would always switch turn one against my Golduck. Then when I switched to a water gem to try and 1 shot the switch in the AI was like sorry bro guess again.

Have you had any luck with this? I'm having the same problem.

Sure glad I didn't figure out the keyword at night Super sick though, I can't wait to solve the next one if there is one! HYPE

Goomink the ultimate lifeform !!

The new portraits look so good! I love all the touch ups like for Eli and Sharon, for Crawli, etc. Florin looks genuinely really cool now, same with Adam, I never really liked Aevis's newer design, I much prefer the legacy sprite, but maybe this new hairstyle will make me like his design more. The new hair looks a little weird, maybe the ends are a little too long.
