Kanto wasn't really designed with realism in mind. I mean there's a route that's essentially a fence maze.

Or the Verranzo Narrows bridge in NYC vs current container and cruise ships.

quote:

While of a design similar to that of Queen Elizabeth 2, Queen Mary 2's funnel has a slightly different shape, because a taller funnel would have made it impossible for the ship to pass under the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge in New York City at high tide. The final design permits a minimum of 13 feet (4.0 m) of clearance under the bridge.

Most harbors have a narrows and many have a bridge. The narrows are generally part of what keeps a harbor safer than open ocean or clear coastine in a storm.

Kanto is still ridiculous.

It makes the hardest left possible and then has to negotiate the space between Pallet and Cinnabar.

there are two lines of rocks, protruding above the water's surface, that are sufficiently close together that a human being can't pass between them

There's no real reason you couldn't, right? As soon as you get surf you would generally have cut (unless you died to get yourself off SS Anne) and fly which could get you back to Pallet Town and open up Cinnabar anyway.

Nothing quite like strolling up to Necrozma, telling yourself "Okay, I got this, I can beat this, despite the horror stories I've heard."

And then watching all six of your pokemon get out-sped and oneshot.

I just cheezed that fucker with FEAR antics. Yeah it's cheap as hell, but I was honestly just trying to power my way to the Battle Tree so I could finally get to the real gameplay from my end of the sticks :shrug:

Actually I've been meaning to post about that. I have FIVE shiny Zygarde codes. Want one? Jump on over to the Goon Trading Thread and find a needy to set up a trade with.

First five to make a trade to someone asking for one in the thread and confirm it in the trading thread get a code!

Congrats to Taillow, Ludicolo Butterfree, Gallade, Illumise, Aegislash, and Swampert

And that's one completed rematch of the ORAS Elite 4! I had to grind to level 65 to do it though. Notes:
-Phoebe's Chandelure was still the toughest enemy I faced, since it could one-shot all but Swellow with effective moves. Good thing the bird had Rain Dance to at least weaken the Flamethrower. Keeping Ludicolo would have been handy here.
-Aegislash is really good against any non-Chandelure foe. It swept most of the dragon-type trainer's Pokemon (except whichever one had Flamethrower, Swampert tagged in there). King's Shield is downright abusive in setting up a Swords Dance/Iron Head kill combo.
-Swampert is an impressive tank. I spent the fight against the Dusknoir reviving and healing everyone in my team that had been wiped by the Chandelure, and it could barely dent Swampert in the process. The Mega evolution was a nice bonus.
-Illumise was surprisingly useful. It's tanky enough to survive non-effective moves and get off a Thunder Wave, and not being a flying secondary type like most bugs it was fully survivable against the ice trainer.
-Gallade wasn't that good; it was useless against the first two trainers and nothing else was especially vulnerable to its moveset. Butterfree sat around looking pretty and I think got off a Toxic against one of the dragons.

That was a cool challenge, even if I lucked into a bunch of really good Pokemon. It was a fun wrap-up to this game. Maybe in a few years I'll get around to Sun/Moon and do this all over again.

If anything, it would be even MORE interesting in Sun/Moon due to the multiple Title Defense challengers you can face.

Target this time. They're on a display in Electronics or wherever they keep cards. If there are leftovers from the other giveaway they're still good for another week.
