Linark Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 So, I'm already having some issues in rejuvenation, compared to reborn. Even when it feels "easier" than Reborn, Reborn feels much more keen on creating inteligent challenges, while Rejuvenation is just a "derp derp lets put more pew pew". F.e, Thunder raid on the electric badge was just insanely overpowered as a move and the only challenge it provided was "get a faster pokemon or die". I'm now in the Nightmare casino were you must challenge random trainers with Ultra beasts and Legendary dogs in their teams. That's already scary enough. The problem is that the battles are random between 3 trainers which would require COMPLETELY different set ups. And as they use legendaries, you can't just go by with random mons: you really need counters, specially for some of the legendaries they can use, like Entei or Nihilego, which will kill most of your mons with ease. In the end it's a damn gamble were you quick-reload until you get lucky. It adds nothing to the game as a tactical challenge and keeps the "pewpew" artificial difficulty so usual in Rejuvenation. Bets reset also between battles, so if you are a fast typer you'll miss it and fight a pointless extra battle The game would seriosuly improve if some mroe thought were put in battles. Edit: With this post I'm not saying it's too difficult or not doable. It clearly is (specially if you are lucky with the match up). The complaint is about the way they are handling battles. With the abuse of toxic and bounce it was quite easy...just not very interesting. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pokeman54 Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Personally I didn't find the nightmare casino hard, I did it on my first try. But I was surprised to see that other trainers used legendaries. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pizzagod13 Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 I had zero problems with this area. I swept them all second try. Like the fights are free if you have good mons and go in with a varied three Pokemon. If you (unlike me) allow yourself to use items or play on set mode then the fights will be pretty trivial if you have decent and varied Pokemon. Honestly, the Aelita mirror match was harder for me, since I play with no items + set mode, it was basically "win the speed tie or lose", which sadly a lost the speed tie something like 5 times in a row before I won...

That's why I said it's more about how many battles are handled. Would love more encounters that make me think like in Reborn, instead of just power battles.

ABoringGuy Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 Nobody is really going to take you seriously until you mention the team you used. Also while there is clear inspiration this game is different then Reborn. Rejuvenation is way more open to you regarding encounters then Reborn. At the same time grinding a whole new team will take less than 10 minutes as opposed to Reborn. I do agree some battles are unnecessarily difficult but this is does not feel one of them.
