That reminds me of all the people bitching about sc2 letting newly built workers automatically start harvesting or the limitless selection size. People hardcore on difficulty and skill tend to wind up insane is what I'm saying.

Every time pokemon opened up progression to be non linear, the level curb goes to garbage and it is hands down the worst part of the game. To pull that off youd have to level scale every last trainer, not just the gym leaders. That said those sections were better than what yall are making uraniums curve sound like

Dragonatrix posted:Gen 1 lets you do Lt. Surge, Erika, Koga and Sabrina in any order as well... and even then you only need to do Koga before you can add Blaine to the list. Last time I played, I went Brock > Misty > Koga > Sabrina > Blaine > Erika > Surge > Giovanni. That was an experience, but it wasn't really difficult either really. Odd that there's nothing preventing it considering you get the ability to use Cut before you ever get Cut but since it's needed to access Surge, and all he gives is quick travel... Surge and Erika gyms can be skipped over, but unless you trade in or abuse bugs you have to go to vermillion for cut and celedon for the silph scope respectively. Its not really being able to tackle it in whatever order. So its really only open for pick saffron or two routes into fuschia in which your first option is cool and you way outlevel the next pair.

Spinarek might have a dumb design, but its a competently drawn one. You can tell its a cute little spider with a stinger on its head. Compare that to uraniums barrell/corkscrew/blotch of brown and grey pixels.

Its also unlikely to happen now that nintendo just released their new handheld line. Any games not already in development for the 3ds are going to be produced for the switch now.

Honestly the backhoe looks like something you would find in banjo kazooie, not pokemon. That said its pretty amazing, which makes it the singular bit ive liked so far

I mean dragonite also looks cool in all its stages and has surf access to free up that party requirement without using a water type. It had pretty good tm access in a game with terrible move pools as well if memory serves.

Lol they gave the kill or be killed, glassiest of glass cannons, super special monsters the ability to ignore you. E: also the fuckin backhoe resists them because of course it does FoolyCharged fucked around with this message at 04:18 on Mar 16, 2017 |

iospace posted:Team Skull is probably both potentially one of the most dangerous, silly, and wholly self aware pokemon villain teams ever. I liked it when you reach there hideout and come to the depressing realization that for every one of them thats evil, there is a dropout kid with broken dreams who cant even afford to keep the pokecenter running.

EclecticTastes posted:The Fighting-type is explicitly martial arts-based, so yes, the idea with it being super effective against the "hard" types (Ice, Rock, and Steel) is that really skilled martial artists can break hard stuff with their fists or whatever. And that's not an extreme example in terms of fiction, that's basically the bare minimum to qualify as an anime protagonist, nor in terms of the game, where every move is some sort of martial arts move or a Kamehameha. Fire, on the other hand, only has a couple moves that involve lava. Now, funny thing, while metal is usually harder to melt than rocks, their popular depictions are generally the other way around. Metal is much more frequently shown being melted down, welded, or otherwise adversely affected by heat, while rocks are often shown serving as the sides of a fire pit, smothering fires, absorbing heat for various purposes, and so on. That's why Steel is weak to Fire while Rock resists it. Flying types can attack from weird angles and penetrate the fighters defensive stance maybe?

God, chainite is even worse than linkite. Mostly because it made me realize that a ghost dude becoming a substitute doll in an identity crisis, getting over said crisis, and then evolving into a form where its ghostly self is literally breaking of out its substitute prison would be pretty rad, uplifting, little mini narrative. You know, instead of the edgelord cringe they chose to make with the same base idea.

Plus the bug works for any encounter table, not just the garbage data from your player name. Want a safari zone rare but hate the safari game? You just got surf so you can immediately hit up cinnibar and teleport there for a normal random encounter.

But whenever the game says legendary they're using the dictionary definition. It's a creature of legend that many people don't believe even exists. Calling them legendaries as in the class of super pokemon boss monsters is extremely fan jargon.
