Dareon posted:Cheren does serve as about half the type chart in this one, but it was nice to have it as something I could easily refer to in-game. Mostly I just memorize certain combos or thematic triangles (Grass/Fire/Water, Earth/Water/Electric, Psychic/Fighting/Dark), which means I wind up getting blindsided by a bunch of things. Like I'll remember Fighting beats Ice, then pull Lucario out versus a Mamoswine, which proceeds to do my head in with a Ground-type attack. That's just the result of the secondary type tripping you up. I often forget about the weaknesses of the secondary typing as well. I only remember what the secondary type is strong against. Does the voice on the bridge belong to N? I always assumed so, it just seems so weird for him to be there.

 #26. UDF: Emolga Armageddon  Huh. I wonder what's out there. Screw it I'm hopped up on fan-gifted lemonade let's do this. Let's jump the railing.  . . . oh. Too much sugar. - - -  You know it Chachi! Thought I'd get back to my action sci-fi roots with this one! "Wha-"      quote:Plot  Choro Notes: This task literally failed me as I started. I did not get a chance to do anything as I was KOd by the Roggenrola's first attack. You have a Herdier holding a King's Rock that knows Roar and Bite. Your opponents are a Roggenrola and an Elgyem. The objective is simple: Roar the Roggenrola away, Bite the Elgyem. HOWEVER, because Roar always goes last, you WILL get hit my Roggenrola's Rock Blast. If the Roggenrola hits for more than 2 you have a good chance of failing. 4-5 hits will KO you and fail the movie immediately. 3 opens you up to a one-hit from Elgyem's Charge Beam. It's kind of dumb.  Great! Great! I'm gonna go watch it RIGHT NOW! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-KmaOXY8WkI  IT WAS THE BEST MOVIE I'VE EVER SEEN AND I WAS IN IT OH BOY! I HOPE IT GETS AN ENDING SOME DAY!    Choro Notes: The marquees outside the theater actually do change with what movies are playing. It's a nice little detail.   Choro Notes: I'm pretty much just going to run through these next three now.  quote:Plot  Choro Notes: This one is probably one of the easiest movies to complete. The Prop is an Electric/Flying-type that will constantly use Counter. All you have to do is use Lock-On and Zap Cannon alternating and you're golden. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvN89umby2U   Yes Mr. Deeoh! - - -  quote:Plot  Choro Notes: This one's not TOO bad. In fact I completely botch it and pull it off! I skipped scene one and just switched my opponent's targets. Your Vullaby has Rest and you're meant to use Thief to take your opponents' Chesto Berries. Your Vullaby also has Pluck which is meant to be a trap: Pluck doesn't steal berries it just eats them. However if you just use Thief repeatedly you can probably beat the Beheeyem. The Beheeyem uses Rock Slide so it has a chance of missing and isn't that strong anyway. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JFnOqOmcnmI  I will never not take and drink these! - - -  quote:Plot  Choro Notes: This one is obnoxious only because there is so much room for the RNG to kill you. You are facing and Emolga with an Iron Ball and the Prop from earlier except now it's an Electric/Psychic-type with Levitate. What you need to do is use Trick to give Reuniclus the Iron Ball from Emolga. Switch to Krokorok. Roar the Emolga away. Switch BACK to Reuniclus. Trick the Iron Ball onto the prop. Then hit it with Earthquake. Twice. If even ONCE the opponent gets a critical hit during that or your monster flinches from Dark Pulse. You're done. There is absolutely no room for error. By the time you use Trick with Reuniclus, it's going to take two hits from Dark Pulse and most likely end up with like 10 HP. This is one of the poster children for the RNG making what could be an interesting idea into a miserable ordeal.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqqTeuUYpiA  Choro Notes: The good news is Rosa's fame level has leveled up because she Grossed P1000 Billion., This means she gets three more fans and access to another series of movies.  I work here! It's fun! People give me candy!   See! Wait, milk? Five milks. I will drink all five milks. RIGHT NOW.  HEEEEEeeeee~  This would have gone with that milk!  C-can you drink these? I'm going to anyway.  Hi, hello.   I'm drinking so much milk today! There is no downside to this!   Ha! Ha! Ok!   . . . I'm feeling pretty urpy now . . . quote:

I only remember what the secondary type is strong against. No weirder than him shouting out his plans to nobody in particular for no reason. Unless one of the Joltiks was concerned enough to ask. Edit: For some reason, the UFO movie was one of my favorites. I don't know why. Probably just because it was relatively easy to get out of the way during my Pokestar grinding runs.

I just figured it because I can't think of anyone else in the setting who can yell something about friends needing his protection and believing he has the power to do so. A bit weird that no one else in the cave responds to it. I expected that the ace trainer behind the bridge would've at least said something about a green haired kid blasting of again.

I feel like this should be reposted. (I don't remember who the original poster was, sorry.)quote:And that's how it starts. A face in the crowd presses a can of cold lemonade into your hand. You try it once. Goes down nice. Takes the edge off. Bellhop says he 'knows a guy.' He'll get you hooked up for the price of an autograph. A month passes, then another. Your new film is six weeks behind schedule because you keep arriving on set on a sugar rush so bad you can't sit still long enough for the makeup lady to do her thing. No problem. You can handle it. Just gotta find something a little stronger to keep you focused. By now the bellhop's guy is your guy and he's got just the thing: powdered lemonade. No need for water, all you gotta do is inhale.

 #27. The Town Where Nothing Changed  Crazy weather we're having.  Music: Mistralton City Oh . . . Oh jeez, was I supposed to do something there? Oh well.   Who isn't?     . . . Care . . . . yeah.   Choro Notes: Coming to this NPC will net you an HP Up if the number of TMs you have reaches 10, 20, 35, 50, 70, and 95.  I know. I KNOW. - - -    Oh! You're uh, the professor broad from the phone.    It's fine, really. I'm honestly not going out of my way. You get me?   Yeah, yeah I'm su—  . . .  I know what it is!   Irresponsible breeders, that's what I think. Importin' and releasin' from other regions.  makes it fun . . . "    Yea, I've seen her before on the tv.   reach Opelucid City by foot."Choro Notes: Surprise. Twist Mountain is completely blocked off until the end game due to a cave in. Wah wahhh.     . . . she didn't even let you answer.  attention to anyone outside her head.Does she do that often?  Hmm? Choro Notes: You meet both Skyla and Prof. Juniper's father in the same place in Black/White.     Choro Notes: You've basically got the exact option here. You can face Skyla immediately if you really want, but her party bottoms out at L.40. P.S. We're just gonna fight her because what up. - - -  Choro Notes: The Sky Drop TM is still in the same place as it was in Black/White. It's also still banned in Wi-Fi matches due to the glitch that could be caused in Black/White. The glitch is no longer present in Black2/White2 but nevertheless, still banned.     "Wouldn't've happened if I were properly hydrated like you. Boom." WHAT? CAN'T HEAR YOU OVER THE WIND.  away like a certain someone just was!" NOPE! CAN'T HEAR.  Choro Notes: The gym is straight forward. Run when the fans aren't blowing. Stop behind a wall when they are.   Choro Notes: The trainers in it are baseline L.40, but honestly it's not that hard due to all the weaknesses. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8VctYlH8CMk    I'm sorry, can we just turn the fans off now?  Music: Battle! Unova Gym Leader  Choro Notes: Skyla hasn't really changed since Black, she switched her Unfezant out for something a little harder. That's it.      Choro Notes: Skyla's biggest weakness is, believe it or not, the sheer number of weaknesses her monsters have. Her Swoobat has switched out Heart Stamp for Psychic and Assurance for Energy Ball in challenge mode. I am assuming it's meant to beat Rock-types but eh.   Choro Notes: The problem with having an out for Rock-types is that's just one of Swoobat's problems: It's also weak to Ice, Electricity, Ghost and Dark.  Choro Notes: Skyla's Swanna only gets BubbleBeam replaced with the more powerful Surf in Challenge mode. (And the requisite level boost). Otherwise it's exactly the same: double weak to electricity.    Choro Notes: It's also got a Sitrus Berry that pluck takes care of nicely.      Well that was bound to happen.   We've got a secret weapon you couldn't have been expecting, HEH.    What? Oh. OH.   Still double weak to it, though.   Yeah, if it lowers your attack like that again, just bite HARDER.   Just a test, see how strong you are Redjru.         Came really close to ruining a Sigilyph seven levels higher than it was by itself. Not bad.           Choro Notes: Every one of those attacks was Super Effective on Sigilyph, who has the same typing as Swoobat. It should also be noted, Skyla doesn't normally use Sigilyph, it's exclusive to her Challenge Mode team.   Choro Notes: Skarmory is the last monster she has. While it doesn't have the Ice or Rock weaknesses the rest of her team has it's also just weak to Fire. Observe:    Choro Notes: This battle's pretty much over. Skarmory's Challenge Mode moveset, as it were. Adds the Sitrus Berry it was holding and replaces Fury Attack with X-Scissor.        Oh that's just insult to injury.    Choro Notes: Honestly, my team was just perfectly set up to ruin Skyla. This honestly isn't hard to do as I said: They have a lot of weaknesses.   poo poo, I didn't even wanna do this at the start.   Everyone always brings up two-years ago. Was it that amazing? I mean, I remember the gigantic drill castle, and the legendary dragons and all but.    Two more holes to stick things in, yea. Alright.    Choro Notes: Acrobatics still has that weird thing where just not much learns it. Of Pre-gen5 monsters added to the new dex that learn it Zubat, Gligar and Drifloon were added. The first two learn the move by level up and all by Level 30. It's just such a bizarre choice for a TM.   Hey before you turn the fans back on, I heard this gym was a lot more painful/dangerous? What's the deal with that? "Oh. They made me take down the cannons about a year ago after that lady broke her neck. . . . That . . . that was a bad day. Anyway bye!!!"   Ow.  OW.

I remember that Pokemon Stadium 2 had much the same thing. It was very generous with the win condition though, so a few misses and crits would not foul things up too much. There was even a victory badge if you won with the wrong pokemon to beat the puzzle.

Silegna posted:It's so much better in XY too, with Rock Head as it's ability. I vastly prefer Adaptability over either of Basculin's other abilities. Basculin can't do much more than hit things with physical water-type moves. So I'm gonna make it really good at hitting things with physical water-type moves. Rock Head and Reckless only help Basculin with Take Down and Double-Edge. Thrash, meanwhile, hits for the same damage as Double-edge and has no recoil. Also, Rock Head is only on the inferior blue-striped Basculin so PSH. I have put a lot of thought into my hate-fish.
