V13 Discussion Thread

Hmmm, if the twitter is to be considered a reliable source of information, then she isn't too messed up. Of course, this is also the twitter that pretty much just has Saki playing animal crossing all day, and I don't know how to feel about Saki just sitting around doing nothing but play ACNH all day while we're fighting Flora atop a massive pyramid at the end of a wasteland comprised of the former capital of the Aevium region.

Isn't Rejuv not including Dynamax or Gigantamax?

Dynamax isn't being used at all, while the Gigantimax forms are reportedly being retrofitted to serve as custom Mega Evolutions. No point in letting official designs go to complete waste, ya know?

Gmax, but more as custom megas rather than a new thing. Dynamax is not included.

 

Can't wait to see where the new Zygarde cores are, especially since it's currently my team's ground type.

I already fear the terror that Saki will unleash with her Mega - Duraladon. Oh god I already hear Boss music.

Can't be any more terrifying than that Wailord with the crazy name that we fought with Goomink.

 

Still, I'm looking forward to fighting it.

The Wailord was a sidequest. I hope there is no comparison. I would argue that the hardest battles in the main story so far have been:

1) Angie.

2) Rift Aelita.

3) Rift Gardevoir.

4) Nim/Lorna at Zone Zero.

 

Also I'm suspecting Freya's involvement. Risa disappears and in the next scene she reappears behind the noticeboard. (???)

It does make me wonder if Saki's gonna be a Double Battle, actually. It most reasonable for G-Duradulon to keep its Signature Stalwart Ability, which doesn't do anything in Single Battles. Failing that, it seems reasonable that it'd have a "new" Ability like Mega Charizard Y's Drought, since Heavy Metal and Light Metal don't do a whole lot (and even less, if Gigantimax's lack of a Weight stat is carried over from the main games).

Damn I hope it godamn is!
I love double battles! I make my teams based in double battles! I have 2 teams for that, a Hail Team and a Sunny Team!
(Also Greninja with Mat Block is very underated!)

Good lord, that Nim fight. Never have I hated trick room with such intensity before. I forgive her for putting us through that, because it's Nim, but still.

 

Anyway, I hope sidequest boss fights remain somewhat more difficult than main ones. I found Defaux to be the hardest rift prior to the nerf, followed by Chandelure. Though admittedly the second one did come after a fairly challenging fight.

So I have a question. Will the ladder that is East Gearen be accessible in v13? 

Now taht's a question I want answered..

Regarding the ladder, we'll just have to wait and see. The Q&A did reveal that it would be accessible eventually, but how soon it'll be was left up in the air.

 

As for the Tournament... I dunno. The government's been to busy making sure that their leader was still safe in the days following Bladestar's attack to make any official announcements on the matter (as far as we're aware, anyway), so who knows how things are looking from that angle. On the other hand, it's looking increasingly likely that it was the Mysterious Figures that signed us up in the dang thing, and they don't seem like the types to do anything if they don't think it'll go exactly the way they want it to. I highly doubt putting us a "convenient" reason to travel to the Eclysia Pyramid was the only thing they had in mind for that move if I'm correct on this one.

So will the mystery egg be able to have galaran darumuaka and will more mons be added to the list?

I highly doubt that more pokemon will be added to the list- the Mystery Egg in both games have maintained a strict 18 option availability list (one for each Type), which doesn't seem like something Jan would be too keen on changing. What the representitives are, however, are guaranteed to see sort of change- Rejuvenation's got mareanie on its Mystery Egg list despite predating Gen. 7, after all.

 

As for Galarian darumaka specifically... I'd be genuinely surprised if it did get added. Both forms of Galarian darmanitan are notorious for savagely bludgeoning competitive on release, so they're probably going to be deemed too powerful to be given right after the third Gym. Never mind the fact that the current Ice representative is the generally respected sneasel, which I don't see getting dropped anytime soon on its own. Naturally, it's always possible for the Devs to make me eat my words, so we'll just have to wait and see.

Also will the tournament even be a thing? I really wanna crub stop Risa and her Naganadel so bad.

Yeah I remember the tournament was confirmed to continue. I suspect that we might get the Mega-ring from Amber during or at the end of the tournament.

 

As for the mistery egg, they could just add one or two gen8 mons to the selection without replacing anything. The mons available are meant to cover all generations and types, so they'd need to have the same typing to replace them.

 

@Autumn Zephyr I believe the list for Rejuv is already 20 or so long, not 18 anymore, so adding more might not be out of the question

If I had to guess for the mystery egg, maybe Toxel or Falinks would work?

As for G-Darumaka it’s the biggest competitive monster since Talonflame. I would probably expect to be available when we get to Neverwinter (possibly this chapter but maybe not).
