I feel dead tired from pulling an all nighter to finish Awakening, I don't think we're moving on to anything yet. I'll finish my second run on PALF on the older version and then I'll probably test the waters with the new stuff, I'll avoid spoillling as much as I can. >>3039 Thanks bro. I counted 2 uses of cleric across the whole game, I think there was another one in a sidequest I didn't bother finishing, but still, there really needs to be some further thought put into classes. >>3040 Ayrei xisters..........speaking of which, has there been any news on Cuckguard? Weird that it and Empire have gone on a massive hiatus.

>>3048 You've, successfully, fucked the rabbit.

>>3045 One day, you will fuck that rabbit.

>>3042 haha...

>>3050 This was posted a month ago, but nothing since then

>>3054 Cuckguard continues for the lack of a better word, to radatiate gatchaslop energy. The designs look fucking terrible and overdone to the point you can barely tell what you're looking at, and they clash so horribly with the base assets and trainers around them.

Doing the rest of the run on the old version just to be sure nothing is broken with Lunatic. Chien-Pao tongues my anus. My team has a pretty good matchup into Chi-Yu and my team's composition naturally tears apart defensive totem bosses.

Out of curiosity, what stats did you lads try to maxx out in your runs in PALF? In both of mine I maxxed out courage and knowledge, my first run had more a balanced distribution all around and my second run ended up with me getting a fairly big patience wield as well due to refusing to join the student council until the bitter end. I do wonder if these stats will have further application aside of their newly given advantages. >>3057 GG bro, I'm surprised more fangames haven't utilized the quartet of ruin as villain mons yet, granted they're still relatively fresh and all, but still.

I realize now that I skipped a few classes due to taking a ton of studies on my first playthrought, bit of a shame.

Elite 5 done Sakura 2 https://files.catbox.moe/3a69lb.mov If there's a single improvement that needs to be made to the boss AI, they need to stop trying to click their signature moves repeatedly into immune mons. Aline 2 https://files.catbox.moe/7zvrp8.mov Her ability really makes the most of the Lunatic tankiness as it's not really possible to push through her mons before she gets her ability up regularly. Interestingly, she never used Rise My Hero to revive mons. Nerissa 2 https://files.catbox.moe/wexnp0.mov >Repeatedly resurrects her whole team >Marowak' gets a +5 omniboost Jesus Christ how horrifying Kaelah 2 https://files.catbox.moe/z76ie9.mov Wo-Chien is one of those mons that sometimes does nothing and sometimes is the only piece of glue holding the team together. In this case it was the latter; definite MVP of this fight. Corus 2 https://files.catbox.moe/wr4e9g.mov >>>>Spore works on grass types but Leech Sneed doesn't ebin. Aside from that, this was easily the most technically interesting match with a lot of positional play to lure Toxapex and Slowbro in when I had both my ability up and he wasn't able to bail it out with Life's Anagram or a switch. >Ho-oh fails to OHKO Eldegoss Sasuga Lunatic-dono >>3059 Thanks bro.

This fight is such a nothingburger on Normal but it's a suitably climactic fake final boss on Lunatic. >Ability hits through Protect Nigger. >>>Ho-oh misses OHKO on +1 Aegislash Blade Form Double nigger. https://files.catbox.moe/18er2p.mov

i love constantly missing 2 magma storms in a row, thanks 75% accuracy >>3061 >>3062 ggs

>Sudden feeling of relief for having said "no way fag" to Janine >>3061 >>3062 GG bro and welcome to THE EMPYREAN. I didn't get to fight Sakura weirdly enough, I looked for her everywhere and she just fucked off after giving me the ninja upgrade. Nerissa might have caused me deep fucking trauma, if it wasn't for the bullshit ninja move and Tina's fat ass and Aegislash cheesing the AI I don't think I'd be able to beat her. Valuar's Empoleon was absurdly bulky and surprisingly gave me a ton of trouble, especially with the constant stat resets that kept ruining my Calm Mind core.

>>3063 >>3064 Thanks bros. I doubt many people watch all this footage, but I like having it for archival sake of completeness. >Didn't fight Sakura Route split difference >Valuar's constant Dekajas While Suicune is capable of boosting into a monster with Calm Minds, my team is thankfully versatile enough to not rely on it and instead just play a positional pivot game of attrition for fights like this. For matchups like this where Calm Mind Scaldspam wouldn't achieve much, this seemed like the better play even if it did help wall Slowking temporarily.

I don't think any of us picked Normal as a type to focus on in PALF, but during one of my 700 catching/battling sprees (I love my luck) I discovered something interesting, you can actually reset certain fights for it to be a Ditto, say you found a Pokemon with fantastic IVs, there's that ever present 1% chance it might be a Ditto, you can keep resetting that fight over and over until you get one, the big issue with this is that for one, it's Ditto and second is that I never found a single Ditto (in all the 14 ones I've seen) with Imposter, which is a bit of a bitch. >>3065 It feels sad to see Lugia become so obsolette, but the big lug didn't do much of anything without boosts and it's move selection was painfully shit, it didn't get Recover until nearly the (not) elite 4, Giratina simiarly was also just a fatass. In retrospect I should have probably invested in Slowbro or Slowking stocks.

>>3066 Lugia is still a top tier toxic staller with multiscale/pressure, recover, and absurdly high bulk. Seems like it's mostly an upgrade to Suicune in a lot of cases, although the psychic typing doesn't do you a lot of favors defensively, it has enough other things going for it to compensate. If Suicune weren't already filling that niche for my team, I'd have considered Lugia. Multiscale is also a big selling point to me personally because even with the crazy amounts of damage everything deals on Lunatic, it all but guarentees Lugia survives one hit to land a toxic and can regularly be refreshed with recover/leftovers+protect stalling to keep Lugia healthy longterm. I'd run something like Future Sight, Toxic, Protect, Recover on Lugia to maximize value out of Multiscale, but a slightly different build for weaponizing Pressure is an option too.

>>3057 >>3061 >>3062 gg

Oblivion Wing tongues my anus on Lunatic. >One last trip to the mines for Zygarde What a fitting way to cap off the central continent legendary hunt kek. Between the legendaries having lore and the legendaries being totems instead of Ultra Ball RNG simulators, this is the only game we've played out of the gigantic pile of fangames we've run through that I've actually enjoyed dexfagging legendaries.

>>3068 Thanks bro.

So what's this about? I noticed it last playthrough Were we (previously) intended to characterswap to her for this section or something? >>3069 gg

>On my second run I decided to actually play along with Jasmine's kinks >It makes Lance extremely uncomfortable to see these two teasing each other Okay, nevermind, maybe Janine bros actually might be onto something. >>3067 That's a good point, sadly Toxic spam isn't as reliable as one would wish and it's not like the rest of my team didn't pull off stalling tactics well anyhow. >>3069 To be fair, the list of fangames that actually let you catch legendaries before the point everything's pretty much over is sparse, even lesser is the list of fangames with engaging legend hunts, Deso comes to mind for me despite having so few available as of yet, I didn't reach Empyrean's postgame, so I can't comment on the legendary hunts there aside from what I've seen from White Man's and your lads' playthrough.

I have found every class upgrade quest but the one for the pirate one who I use the most, where do I start it?

>>3069 gg

if bread gets autolocked at 2000 I'll start baking >>3073 In a port tavern tavern, I think it was an optional area in chapter 1

>>3071 >>3074 Thanks bros. >Pic No idea. I noticed it too and couldn't figure out what it was about. After seeing the endings, it's pretty clear what the context is. Still, It's interesting that the game didn't fully commit to the character swap when the swap to Pixi beforehand is fully functional. >>3072 >Lugia Toxic spam with such extreme bulk and reliable self-recovery+multiscale enough to justify a team slot. While Lugia may not hit hard, don't undersell Future Sight's ability to push through Full Restore thresholds in fangames either in tandem with other attacks (and residual damage). >Legendary Hunts Empyrean's legendary hunts are interesting in that they're either extremely high effort to reach (ho-oh) relative to most fangames, pure RNG (auction) or given to you for practically free in the postgame with the scrolls as a reward for finishing EoE autistic shit. >>3075 Do you have an archive solution for the rentry in mind for 8chan?

>>3075 Ah thanks, didn't even know that was there
