Apparently, I can barely go a semester of college without f**king something up majorly and it's always my own damn fault. I have graduation tomorrow and I'm almost 100% sure I failed one of my last two classes to get my degree. The biggest mistake I made was taking a full online class when...
I need to get back to posting my final teams. I've got so many I don't remember at this point.
Legends Arceus:
Decidueye, Kleavor, Ursaluna, Basculegion, Braviary, Avalugg
I probably should have worded it better. The difference here from previous games is that you don't get a choice of whether or not you have them on your team They're required to be in your party in order to battle the other, meaning everyone is going to have one of them on their final team.
This thread contains unmarked spoilers for Legends: Arceus, including LATE GAME SPOILERS. Be forewarned.
I've been testing modified rules out for a Pokemon Legends: Arceus Nuzlocke. This includes several clauses and sub-clauses and I've included my justifications for these.
Due to the nature...
The last Bug Catcher in Viridian Forest in RBY and FRLG has a Potion hidden in his line of sight. I accidentally learned that in 2010. However, what I just discovered was that he actually mentions he lost an item if you talk to him after the battle. Such a minor detail evidently eluded me my...
Dear YouTube:
STOP SHOWING ME SPOILERS FOR GAMES THAT AREN'T OUT. IF I WANTED TO KNOW THAT, I'D GO LOOKING MYSELF. SCREW YOUR DUMB ALGORITHM.
Thank you.
Seriously, why do people think everyone wants to see leaks? Many people want to be spoiler free as much as possible. Even speculation videos...
This week was the first week of classes for me and they just announced it's all virtual next week. I knew this was going to happen (I'm actually surprised it wasn't announced before we started) and I have a VERY strong feeling that it's going to be extended and/or that it won't be the only time...
I've actually been doing a very very long series of undocumented Nuzlockes with this exact mindset. Each time I beat the game, the 6 families that make up my team I can't use again (with exceptions listed below), regardless of whether or not they survived, and going through each generation in...
Been a while since I posted, but I figured I'd do this one since it's the first one of this game:
Shining Pearl: Roserade, Machamp, Steelix, Manaphy, Mew, Jirachi
Yes, all three available mythicals but the main rule I used was when something dies, I go with the next Pokemon in line and I got...
It's weird how such a minor thing was added into three games but none of the others in the same generations with how carefully it had to be programmed. I know Game Freak does this sort of thing, but still.
So, this was literally just discovered. In Gen 4, if your Pokémon has a nature that affects Speed (either + or -), its animation when you send it out will be slightly faster than other natures.
I feel like I just spent way too much money in one sitting despite the fact that I set aside enough money from my paychecks to cover it safely. Bought a new Switch (Original, not OLED) since mine is an original 2017 model that has had so much use that it doesn't owe me anything.
BUT! More...
Well, my family is stuck quarantining as my dad tested positive for COVID last night. We're all vaccinated, so I'm not terribly concerned about any of us getting it seriously. We're more surprised it took this long because my dad worked in an ICU all last year with COVID patients and my mom and...
Well, the CDC's new guidelines include wearing masks when fully vaccinated in areas with high transmission rates. The state I live in is one of two where every county fits this description. So it's back to wearing a mask for me!
I don't mind personally. I just have to change midday because it's...
While trying to Surprise Trade for things I can use in a Sword Nuzlocke, I have received hacked Pokémon. Seven. Freaking. Times. Getting REALLY sick of seeing these. I've released them and caught something else to trade. 5 times.
I have yet to make it to Motostoke. I'm just getting almost all...
This actually applies to any Pokémon transferred from GO, not just legendaries and mythicals. However, this doesn't apply to the ones transferred to Let's Go and then into Home (i.e Bulbasaur-Mewtwo, Alolan Forms, and Meltan and Melmetal. I don't think you can transfer Mew this way, though.)...
The Digging Pa in the Isle of Armor can go into a rush multiple times in a single digging session. I had it happen twice just now. It's not that I wasn't paying attention and did two different digs, I just started and I'm only 7 Armorite ore short of what I started with.
