Zulily Zoetrope posted:I think the Arceus stuff kind of gets a pass, since every faction in Insurgence is based around people misrepresenting or exploiting legendary Pokémon. The Arceus cult is just another cult who happens to be the only one that is decidedly not malicious (up to this point), and is instead lame as hell for mostly comprising canon characters for no good reason. If Arceus shows up and goes “are you there, Amy? It’s me, god, and here’s what I want you to do:” that’ll be hella dumb, but as far as I’m concerned, he cares as much about these dweebs as Darkrai does about Persephone until proven otherwise. So what you're saying is next update will be "Are you there, Amy? It's me, Arceus, and here's what I want you to do:"

I was looking through things and was reminded that Delta Crustle's hidden ability was Simple, which must be absolutely monstrous with Shell Smash. So I want that to happen at least once just for the entertainment of the sheer murder by cake. Not that Delta Crustle wasn't already murderous, but maximum murder is good. I don't know if this is actually viable since I have no idea how many of the items that you need to change abilities to hidden abilities you can get.

LiefKatano posted:...Source? Delta Regice looks like a Water-type (Regiwater?) which I guess gives it an edge over regular Regice, but every Delta has... the exact same statline as the regular version. Some of them for the better, some of them... for the worse. flat-out. Pretty sure he's just supposed to be a crazy idiot. Also Normal Regice learns a fair variety of electric moves, so unless Water Regice learns something super effective against normal regice (... not exactly a stretch, to be fair), Normal Regice probably has the advantage.

serefin99 posted:Does Insurgence not give Toxic perfect accuracy when used by a Poison-type? Cuz if it does, I think that'd be better than Poison Gas. Kinda redundant, given the purpose of Venomous. Of course, so is Venomous, given access to a Toxic TM. Which is probably why it's stuck near the end of the game. What you're actually supposed to do with it is use it with a poison-inflicting damaging move. Probably Sludge Bomb. But that's kind of lame.

Kurieg posted:Poison gas isn't 100% accuracy, I think his point is "If you're going for a 'will poison the enemy pokemon' move why not go with the more accurate one." Yeah, but it'd make Venomous redundant, which would be unfortunate. So the problem is in fact Venomous convincing you to make weird move decisions compared to perfect accuracy

I'm not sure if they have STAB or not though, that might be an issue depending on how strong the moves are. There was a crystal type move in Insurgence, so presumably there will be at least that one in Azurite.

The Golux posted:Yeah sound over dark works. I wasn't being comprehensive in my complaints about it, it's really just that it interacts with too many types and there are a few specific ones that I disagree with. Sound I can kind of see working as a type at least; Light and Mystic are pretty much completely redundant with other types (notably Mystic is pretty much entirely redundant in concept with Psychic; at least Light is split up among a few types). The biggest issue is that a few pokemon that would be Sound already have two types and changing either of them would be kind of weird (Noibat and Noivern, for example). Bug Buzz and the other non-normal sound moves could just get the effect that Flying Press has where they also deal sound-type damage, as long as sound's affinities don't result in anything too powerful for that. For extra fun, based on Insurgence, where they give Flygon a mega with a sound boosting ability, as well as 2 new unique sound moves, Flygon would also be reclassified as a sound pokemon. So, to expand, Flygon, a pokemon who 1. Has two types (Ground/Dragon), 2. Evolves from a single type pokemon (ground), and 3. Mega evolves in Insurgence two different types (Bug/Dragon)... would have Sound type inserted, somehow.
