Just now, Zander said:

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.

I hope everyone will get demolished by Hardy . Hail rock-type.

Amethyst, what other Pokémon Fangames do you personally reccomend?

to be honest i haven't really personally played many. i'll give a shoutout to rejuv cuz jan's my boi, but i think most people around here go for that one already ^^;
and even then i haven't actually properly played rejuv either

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)

although it's never explicitly explained, the game does follow a similar system. note the brackets in our online league were just for ranking, not division of who could be challenged. a player could challenge up to 3 (4 earlier on) leaders from their lowest missing badge even if that transcended a bracket.

62 bugs left, so close. Can we hope to have it by Friday ?

Why not Tyrantrum?

[Winnow 3]

He needs a pokemon to go mega with. I expect either mega Aerodactyl or mega Tyranitar to fill that job. Also, he would be so dope if he has Lycanroc (midnight form) and Alolan Golem on his team.

I think it will be m-tyranitar because i expect a trick room team and m-aerodactyl would be to fast

[Angelkitsune 267]

Honestly i wish Hardy is the last Gym leader because everyone expects Saphira to be last just because she uses Dragon type pokemon . Besides it would be ironic that Rock would be the last type since in every pokemon game Rock will be always the first (Brock,Roxanne,Roark) in generation six its the second gym i think...

We'll see but i hope so too. 

[Winnow 3]

What really intrigues me is what kind of terrain Hardy will be using. That is some I really cannot wait to see cause I know Ame and her development team will throw us through a loop when Ep18 comes out.

[Angelkitsune 267]

Alot of people speculated that Hardy is going to use Dragons Den or Rocky Field ,maybe Ame will create a new one just for Hardy. Also i saw it on Ame's tumblr blog that apparently Hardy can be challenging with Murky Water of all Field （⊙ｏ⊙）

[robiseljak 8]

Well, Dragons Den boosts Smack down and decreases water and ice attacks strength, so it would make sense for him to use it.

[HakuryuYukio 26]

Now that i think about it, i don't think that Hardy will use the Dragon's Den Field. Because i checked Ame's Post where she introduced the field, yesterday.

She stated that TWO GYMS will use that effect, NOT TWO GYM LEADERS. We already fought on that Field against Reshiram/Zekrom in Titania's Gym.

And the second time will be against Saphira.

 

 

[SilentAge 22]

@vava4429 Probably tomorrow or Thursday, definitely by Friday. Patience, buddy. We'll get there.

[ShadeStrider 392]

Everyone should take a break from Bug fixing tomorrow and watch the Nintendo Direct.

 

That is, assuming you guys aren't done by today.

[Bignoob27 5]

Might sound dumb, but what is Nintendo Direct?

[Angelkitsune 267]

i think its a video where nintendo releases more information about the games they are currently developing .Tomorrow i guess everybody is going to watch something new about Pokemon Let's go Pikachu and Let's go Eevee

It's not actually about Pokemon Let's go. If they do mention it, It's probably not going to be that important.

 

Nintendo is actually banking its direct on Smash Bros.

 

Which is fine by me, I don't intend on buying Let's go.

 

I can't wait for them to announce Sephiroth and Raiden (Metal Gear) as playable characters.

And this would be likely to happen! After searching in the data files of Pokemon Reborn, I've found some interesting things such as the visual aspect of each badge, everybody can find them as it has already been implemented in the Episode 17. For some reason, the penultimate badge reminds me of a flame pattern with some gems around, maybe Saphira's one. Also, it has some vibrant colors just like Charlotte's badge, whereas the last one looks more like a kind of fossil which might fit Hardy's type a bit more. I won't show anything directly cause I fear it might be considered as a spoiler, however you can check it by browsing the following data path yourself.

intresting, So we might end our league challenge with a lvl 90-95 Hardy before we take on the what I assume is gonna be a lvl95-100 E4.

Ame has been known to swap around the badge layout in that file each and every episode. I wouldn't take it as any indicator.

The order of the badges isn't relevant. The symbols were put in out of order on purpose to keep people working out what order the badges were earned in.

Let's add on more option to this list, shall we? Ciel proves that a Gym Leader can have a Mega of any Typing, so long as the non-Mega Evolved form matches their Type profile (altaria is a Flying Type, whereas mega Altaria is not, but she uses it anyway). This opens the floodgates for Hardy to come in with Mega Aggron to throw us for a loop with. Notably, it isn't as bothered by Murkwater as many Rock Types would be, so it lines up with that clue fairly well. I don't think this will be the case, to be honest, but I wouldn't be surprised if Ame opted to go this route either.

Really? Sorry, I didn't know about it. Somehow, that's a clever way to proceed. But at least, this two information combined (Mine & @Angelkitsune's) should be enough to confirm what Saphira and Hardy's badges would look like. The doubt about this order will be blown away the day of the release. Otherwise, good job for the hard work put into it, I'm also very enthusiastic to discover the design of the next banner for the forum~~

[HAWmaro 15]

honestly making a rock type leader hard enough to be worthy of being the ultimate gym leader isn't easy. But I also kinda thought Amaria's gonna be easy and she kinda was to my team but lots of people struggled with her from what i read(for the record Titania beat me enough time for 2 gym leader)
