X% Hype!!! [E18 Dev Discussion Thread]

[Lorans 2]

Oh, that's great. I still vividly remember the first half of the game so it's nice to experience something new, even if a little, when restarting. 

 

Cheers.

We're paying you more than a few gil for this version, you'd best be worth it.

Hello. So, I haven't played Reborn since E11, and I had a few questions. 

 

I'm thinking of restarting when E18 is released. I was wondering if after every episode, more/different wild AND event Pokemon and events in general are added in earlier areas/routes? Or do episodes strictly add to the story? I'm assuming you do add content to earlier area, right? 

Yeah you had better restart the game. You'll be able to build a much more solid team and you'll understand the story better too. Plus episode 18 is the one where your choices affect the story so it'll be fun.

So i just went back to the post where Amethyst introduced the Dragon's Den Field to reread the effects. And as it stats: Multiscale removes Dragon Types Weaknesses.

Does that also apply to other weaknesses ?

 

For Example: Will Dragonite lose it's Rock Weakness ?

Will Mega-Charizard X lose it's Rock and Ground Weakness ?

No, just dragon type weakness.

No.

 

From the field description: 

 

• Multiscale will remove all weaknesses of the bearer relating to the Dragon type. (Dragon, Ice, and Fairy) If the bearer is a dual-type that would be doubly weak to a type (e.g. a Flying/Dragon to an Ice move, a Dark/Dragon to a Fairy move), they will only take 2x damage rather than 4x.

Many of them do (Amethyst and Dan does at least but some like Marcello live in England, basically they could be anywhere), there's usually updates for me between quite late at night to about 8am the next day. Everyone sees the updates at some point so it's all good.

Good to know. Now i'm less intimidated by Saphira's Dragonite. Thanks to the both of you.

Ah i see. Just wondering i know very well how hard the team is working, Thanks for the quick answer!

No dragon, ice and fairy weakness? Well looks like a Goodra and a Haxorus with dragon dance could easily sweep this gym.

Only Pokemon with Multiscale ignore those weaknesses, ergo it applies only to Dragonite. If it worked for all dragons then it'd be incredibly broken .-.

I had to edit my comment, because i made a mistake. Only applies to Dragonite.

Still, Mold Breaker Haxorus destroys Dragonite, even with the broken Multiscale.

As was said, most of us do, but setting that aside, I'm the only who's updating the bug score/scoreboard so that naturally will wait until I'm awake even if it's reflective of work others are doing during the European day.

also for the record, dan hasn't actually been on the active development time for a solid couple years.

Hi Ame, did you read my message ? In the message i asked you something about Saphira's Team.

Ame replied to me this is an experience, I see. it was no other than a question if it seemed like i was unhappy with the speed or something i was not. I am incredibly grateful that you guys made this game

How bamboozeling.

So it will be like fighting Mega-Ray except that it loses Dragon Weakness, not Flying weakness. intresting.

 

Although, I guess you could counter her Dragonite using your own Dragonite by giving it blizzard.

Wouldn't do that if i were you. Because i believe that the damage of ice type moves is cut in half on that field.

If you want to beat that monster, better use one of the two following options:

1.Use Dragon Dance to set up with your own Multiscale Dragonite

or

2. Use Mold breaker Haxorus. It's also naturally faster then Dragonite.

Amethyst, what other Pokémon Fangames do you personally reccomend?

True mold breaker definitely helps. But normal dragons would do the trick too for the rest of her team

So tell me if i'm wrong but according to what you say, Saphira is the next leader and Hardy the Last ? What a way to honor the rock-type it would be.

there's no confirmation on who's #17 and who's #18 at this point, you'll have to wait to play through E18 to fight out     

 

lore-wise, the order probably isn't quite so strict. the game hasn't confirmed if it follows this structure but the reborn online league was 6 'brackets' of 3 leaders each (once fairy was added)

[robiseljak 8]

Everyone is expecting Hardy, so I'd like to see Sapphira, just so Ame can give us the finger again and screw up our plans.

It's Just that everyone speak of Saphira 's team and nothing about Hardy.'-'

Yeah because everyone speculates Saphira to be the LAST gym leader. The last gym leader is always the toughest and hence is being talked about. No one is talking about Hardy because rock types are manageable and everyone expects dragons to rule the gyms.
