>>3078 Kek, the lads didn't notice we were literally just about to reach 2000 right before RG's post. Also holy kek on the image.

>>3076 >Do you have an archive solution for the rentry in mind for 8chan? Right now just the thread link is in there, but I just archived it on archive.today and will probably put that link there too on the minuscule chance the thread gets nuked for whatever reason >>3079 the inspiration came to me this morning kek

Last thread was absurdly slow to load in browser. I think migrating every 1000 is probably ideal for readability, even if it's not the upper bound limit. Even then, that might still be obnoxious to navigate for phoneniggers but they deserve to be bullied thobeitever. Is Magearna unobtainable or just extremely well hidden? >OP image kek

>>3080 Like Ashime said, it takes ages to post and load the page after the 1000 mark, so that's probably the threshhold we should keep. >>3081 I couldn't find Magearna anywhere, I went looking for the UBs and Paradoxes too, whom I also think are unavailable.

>>3081 >>3082 Sure, 2k posts is a fuckton to go through kek >Is Magearna unobtainable or just extremely well hidden? It's apparently obtainable according to Eevee Camelia settlement spoiler'd in case you want to find it yourself still

That one game makes me flinch whenever I see this word

Doing a few last things for finish my second run's time loop, got curious once again, does anything interesting happen if you befriend Dawn before your big battle with her? I managed to get the condition of making her use an item and also got enough friendship I got an adorable little bout of dialogue with her before her birthday, but that was pretty much it since it's really hard to befriend her if you don't share classes with her. >>3085 It took me 2 days worth of attempts to beat that bitch with my unga bunga strength build, I adore how they gave her super armor and the ability to just fucking ignore poise breaks because fuck you, because the rot, waterfowl and the healing wasn't bad enough.

I just remembered something, PALF takes a ton of inspiration from the manga and it seems with Mallow and some throwaway dialogue that they want to bring in some Alolan characters, I just remembered a certain chicken is Dawn's sister in the manga.

>>3084 Found her without the spoiler since I just came back here when I realized I had forgotten Cresselia kek. >>3087 Isn't chicken korean in the adventures manga or something? What are the implications of this?

>>3088 it's only a handful but I hope the legends that are just out in the open but invisible are given better spots, spamming magic mirror and scraping every inch of an area isn't great

>>3088 To be fair I didn't know that, I just know a few snippets I've seen on /vp/, the implications are potentially pretty funny depending from which Korea she hailed from.

I didn't do this route before on my last run even during the loop. Even while he's on my side he STILL acts like a filthy snake, MY FIST DEMANDS VIOLENCE.

>>3089 Marshadow is easily the worst offender of this. Meltan is by a place that could feasibly have an invisible wall. Magearna is by a place that previously had a boss. Diancie is at a place that previously had a boss. Manaphy is a bit dubious but at least the fact there's no other legends on the treasure island would make the player suspicious. Marshadow's placement is just rude. >>3090 >Modeled after a Seoul-born actress named Bae Doona Definitely worst korea for moon. Apparently her bow is also a korean design. >poison specialist haha...

Bros?

That a beautiful "DUWANG". >>3092 I knew where Marshadow was and I still had a ton of trouble finding it, it just blends into the darkness and it's so hard to see. >From worst Korea >Poison specialist Holy kek, the jokes DO write themselves. >>3093 CHAOS GODS........

>>3085 haha... >>3089 >>3092 At least Apprentice shows you where the lens of truth can be used it's a reason to not be on thief 24/7 anyway kek but yeah, agreed

>>3095 >At least Apprentice shows you where the lens of truth can be used fuck

>>3096 haha...if it helps, I only found out yesterday myself

Huh......this route was......definitely interesting..... Poor Bianca and Hilbert. I also find it funny on a narrative sense that on my end Bianca is best friends with the MC and Cheren and she takes classes with both between her Normal and Psychic electives. >>3095 OH, SO THAT'S THE LITTLE STAR ICONS MEANT.

It's very polite of this game to not make you leave to get the steeds before you can open this and generally have some leniency with the amount you need to fight Arceus. >Non-standard legendary boss music >Still has just 2 healthbars No recording because it's the same Toxic+Leech Seed+Ruinationfest that is every other legendary so far and not very interesting to watch. Doesn't even have midfight dialogue.

Oh fug shitcode strikes again and the pirate class didn't level up after the quest

>All of the class 3 bosses scale to lunatic See you lads in a while kek. I won't spam recordings of each one since they seem to mostly just be the same as before.

>>3099 gg >>3100 Yeah, you need to reload an (auto)save and update the game >>3101 haha...

>>3102 Reload a save before the quest? Cause I kinda only noticed it after doing a bit of the story

>>3103 I can probably upload a "fix" to set it to level 2 for you, gimme a minute

>>3099 GG, feels weird Arceus of all things doesn't have a more involved battle.

>>3099 gg

>>3102 >>3105 >>3106 Thanks bros >SMT game >YHVH boss is undercooked Dev-sama dropped the ball on this one.

if anything Im surprised you guys are still here, I though you would have gone to 4chan by now unless you guys feel this place cosier. >>3080 >>3079 Reminder that you can go to >>>vp/285 to talk about the board itself, the BO is probably going to start working on this place this weekend or next week

>>3103 https://files.catbox.moe/z5dr7q.zip That should work, the npc is back in the port town by the BVLL

>knowledge So this also follows some SMTV stuff >>3109 Many thanks

>>3108 >All the coomers and schizos left when 4chan went back up >Not a single s*awnberg sighting since then >Mods aren't openly hostile to anons >More formatting options for posts >Higher thread limits Why would we leave kek? This place is significantly better.

>>3111 >not a single shaunberg sighting He actually came here 3 or 4 times already, I kicked him out 2 of those times, the BO took care the other 2 times, if anything you not seeing it means we acted quickly >All the improvements Oh yeah I dont disagree, one of my threads from 4chan decided to move over here because they were suffering a stupid amount of spite and samefagging and IDs over here were a blessing.

Halfway through the boss rematches. >>3112 To clarify, I saw him once in the /vpplays/ thread when 4ch was down, but since 4ch went back up, I haven't seen sh*wnberg since. Either way, the fast response time is appreciated; he used to regularly eat 5 or so of 4ch's 150 image limit slots in our threads when we were back there. >samefagging Bless poster IDs and UID counts on threads.

>>3108 Have you seen the state 4chan and especially 4chan's /vp/ are in? This site is a lot cosier and has so much more going for it than 4chan, the mods also seem pretty chill and thoughful, I suffered way too much thanks to 4chan /vp/'s mods and nearly got banned for 3 whole months for something I didn't even do (using a proxy), even after I clarified everything and proved I wasn't breaking the rules I received a second 1 day ban out of sheer spite. Plus like Ashime said, we don't have to deal with schizos here, we got so many faggots back on 4chan who constantly tried to start shit in the thread.

Byron being a full blown boomer wasn't in my bingo list, but I admit it's hilarious.

>>3115 At this point, it's wise to separate Musk's LPs from ours, and let him manage the LPs at halfchan while we do ours here.

When are the legendaries available again? At the start of chapter 5? i still need to finish off a couple of classes I will of course be going straight for Mewtwo for suffermaxxing >>3117 Musk basically already did kek, works for me tbh

I am just going to start assuming Musk is the one shitposting as if he was Shawn and people mentioning him triggered him while he was here lurking

trying to find a weird game, noon would be it if anyone else is ready for that, but for now there's this spade demo. don't know much about it, it's going to have another version with club when it has more content, and it has a bunch of fakemon.

>>3126 Reasonable assumption. Watching the posts disappear in realtime is very satisfying thobeitever.

from the title screen to this it's already showing a lot of custom visuals and menus, good first impression

>>3117 It already is fairly different in feel as it is. >>3126 He's weirdly quiet on 4chan right now despite being online 24/7 and there's always odd coincidences with particularly bad Sh*unb*rg spergouts and Musk being around. He has a history of flooding boards on /vp/ with a proxy and spamming soyjaks and has admited to being a sharteen.

not on my fucking watch

these are the starters. going for zorwal, it looks cool

Our threadly theme song: https://youtu.be/JuQdZPLk2v4 >In a not too distant future, next Friday AD, >There was a girl named Lin, not too different from you or me. >She's an gremlin who goes on the board 8chan, >Making ton of shitposts, whenever she can, >She done so much to fuck up the place, >That the Jannies dragged her sorry ass into cyberspace! >"We'll send her shitty fangames, the worst we can find. >She'll have to sit and play them all, as we monitor her mind." >Now keep in mind Lin can't control when the game begins or ends, >She'll have to keep her sanity, with the help of her monster friends. >POKÉMON ROLL CALL: >Ashime(Toxpex), RG(Archaludon), >Bunken(Tysplosion Johto), Wagie (Breloom), >Orevald (Delphox), >John (Tentacruel)! >If you’re put off by the offensive slurs and other obscene acts, >Then repeat to yourself "It's just a thread, I should really just relax, >For the Anonymous /vp/ Let’s Play: 9000!"

>>3140 Apologies, since you kept posting those I though you were s´+{}erg or that m+´{ since someone mentioned a proxy and I thought he would try to avoid the ban by swapping IPs

I want to say no, but at the same time I'm extremely curious to find out what she's about, you can reject sexo from her and the implication is that she's trying to into Red's pants to make him do something for her. I honestly can't tell if she's genuine or not, everything about Klara in PALF raises suspicion. >>3138 Thanks a ton bro, this pest has a vendetta against us, we had a theory it was multiple retards spamming the voreshit, but apparently not, stranger still is that however it was followed us here. >>3139 These could pass for modern starters, Zorwal looks the best, none of them look bad honestly, which is nice.

>>3139 The fire starter looks very cute.

>>3142 whoever it was* I can't spell anything correctly today.

weird mechanic, I beat a wild pokemon but then another one showed up in that same battle with a higher level

>>3147 isnt that just the horde mechanic of the 7th gen?

>>3148 I don't think so, at least based on what I'm seeing on serebii.

I really don't like the level 30 tutor moves, they're way too weak for this point in the game and pretty much everything you might want to train either already knows these moves or something better, I think only Poison and Fighting's move choice doesn't completely suck.

Bonus Daren fight. I wanted to show off how absurdly broken Agrat is, to the point she makes Jirachi and Skymin look like honest mons. Due to Daren cleansing himself every healthbar, he eventually can muscle out of it, but you more or less get his first two bars for free with Agrat. https://files.catbox.moe/e5zpcq.mov >>3139 That's a good set of starters.

>Armageddon obtained Fake spell for fake SMT gamers. I will not be using it, even though the outfit is neat.

>4 of my mons get raped by EQ >surprise surprise, EQ Excadrill haha >>3151 gg

>>3151 >>3153 gg

>>3151 >>3153 GG.

the gacha is spreading. you can pay 400 bucks for a chance at a random ball, 3 pulls I got one great ball, one premier, and one regular pokeball.

Is doing the legendary hunt necessary? Probably just going to get some more that I want if not

>>3157 no

>>3157 Pretty sure the only big benefit of doing the legend hunt is if you want Arceus or not, at least from what I checked.

>>3158 >>3159 Ah I see, then I may be able to finish the game this weekend if there isn't a whole lot of game after the rematches that give you the Tapus

>>3155 >>3154 >>3153 Thanks bros and GG overcoming mole-sama, RG. >>3157 You need any 50 if you want to fight Arceus + get the rewards that megabuff your Eevee starter, but other than that no. I'm going to get all of them and will report back if there's an achieve for every one. >Calyrex's steeds only spawn in the world after beating Calyrex requiring you to leave the Empyrean, find them, then come back. Sigh.

>>3161 gg. still weird you fight the regular versions of the dogs, so used to the armored up ones

>>3161 >megabuff the Eevee starter I fear how strong it can get when the moon one already has mega min maxed stats specially with the EV relocation thing

I find it bizarre that regardless if Erika loathes you or really likes you, her event in the cafe doesn't change at all, no different dialogue, nothing, I get she has a thing for the MC, but it's pretty bizarre. >>3160 The northern continent is super short, probably only takes like 3 to 4 hours max if you're speeding through it and not bothering with legendaries much. >>3161 GG again bro, I don't understand why the steeds aren't in the tower near Calyrex, it's something similar with the petal, it doesn't change forms, it just allows you to get the different ones if you went through all the trouble of going all the way back across the whole map for a rematch, it 's really dumb. >>3162 Hero of Many Battles Zamazenta is a good boyo, pretty much one of the few things keeping gen 9 OU from getting raped by Shitgambit.

rare to see new sprites

I discovered three things about this event on a reset, one, you gotta use a picnic basket you can buy from Mallow to summon the bee, two, the Combee (Vespiqueen) has a busted foreveral with it, it's a pretty tough business catching the damn thing and this event feels like a precursor for whatever character is coming in next week and for final and third, the documment makes note of a Beedrill FOE, this is where they spawn, however you can't flinch or paralyze the Combee for that to happen, you can also do this event during different days if you want to try and getting a chance for different IVs on the Beedrill and Combee (Vespiqueen).

Whiteouts: 9 (+1) The eyeball wheel is very hard to contain with Lunatic's damage modifier. The combination of having a neutral STAB on everything, high speed, fully healing every 5 turns when Apolo's ability recharges and the increased difficulty exploiting its (relative) frailty make for a tough mon to overcome. The Leavany mon nearly oneshots anything it hits with Divine Scissors, especially if it's buffed by Apolo's skill. Mew is annoying as well, but thankfully his other 3 mons are comparatively easy. All things considered I think this is one of the mechanically toughest fights in the game, on Lunatic at least. https://files.catbox.moe/kiw18q.mov >>3162 >>3164 Thanks bros.

Did anyone ever find Zarude?

>>3168 Yup, it's in the route right after Nerissa I think, it's invisible near the river.

>>3167 gg. that mew just wouldn't die, and near the end it seemed like using your sheriff ability made earthquake do less damage somehow

>>3169 Fuck, I can't remember if it was the one before or after the Nerissa forest since it was 2 AM and I was dead tired, I just know for certain it's near the forest you fought Nerissa in.

the first gym is steel, and the only other thing I have that would've helped is a normal/ground that knows mud slap. he had an aron and a fakemon called garnut that got some lucky boosts with metal claw.

>>3172 GG, first time I think I've seen a Steel gym be the first in the circuit.

>>3154 >>3155 >>3161 Thanks bros >>3167 gg, I remember the wheelnigger annoying me on normal, unfortunate to see it's worse kek

in this world you need a badge to use public transit. imagine needing 4 badges to take a flight, would eliminate long tsa lines >>3173 thanks bro. same, can't think of one

>>3172 gg >>3173 I think that one GB essentials spic game had a steel/flying troon leader as gym 1

Of course it has a shit nature. >>3175 Somehow still less dystopian than Cuckguard. >>3176 The one with the gym leaders being randomly named after Greek gods that also had several NPCs going on long tangents about how stunning and brave the first leader was for having mutilated their genitals?

>>3176 thanks bro. oh you're right, estelar had one.

I think I'm just missing Zeraora and Specterier. >>3169 Danke. >>3170 Thanks. Getting both of his full restores with Jirachi and getting the toxic reapplied was probably best case scenario as I avoided him synchronizing toxic for free onto something else. I had to make a really hard call who to take a toxic with after I confirmed he wanted to poison Suicune and Jirachi was already dead, and in hindsight I probably could've sequenced it a bit better to have Suicune take a knock off and leave Jirachi alive to block a Toxic, but then it'd get messier longterm as he'd get a second cast of his ability on Mew. It all worked out in the end this way thankfully. >>3171 I simply followed the smell of gamefreak's dada to fight him. >>3172 GG bro >First gym steel Now that's rare. >>3174 Just eyeballing the catchable version of the wheel and looking at its moveset, it looks like the kind of mon that'd make smogniggers seethe immensely if it were a real mon even without lunatic modifiers kek.

if anyone else decides to pick this up, get some healing items before getting on the train, there's a small gauntlet with no healing spot in site

>>3177 That's the one, haha

Bros.......I think I'm getting Bea pilled...... >>3179 H-haha..... I imagine Specriter might be near the graveyard in the frozen abandoned village, assuming of course it isn't somewhere in the northern continent. >>3181 To think I used to call this the most schizophrenic spic fangame we've had seen for so long before REDACTED 2.............

that koala gets razor leaf and leech seed, it was also level 16 and my average level is 12. too bad he only has 2 pokemon kek. this rival is a little strange, he's kind of a dickhead to the professor despite being given the starter he wanted but slightly nice to the mc in the rival kind of way. I would say it's close to eevee edition's version of silver

Did anyone find Zeraora? >>3181 Damn I was trying to repress this game. It wasn't that bad as a game, but the blatant trannyshit popping up so frequently felt like the juice wasn't worth the squeeze with this one. >>3184 GG >>3183 She's cute but she's also brazillian and that's halfway to beastiality.

>>3186 I found that one actually, pretty sure it's in Oratory Forest >Damn I was trying to repress this game haha...

>>3187 Thanks bro. Luckily it did not take combing the entire damn forest to find him.

2nd gym of the demo is grass. her ace was a grass/fairy I think, it resisted bite, and for some reason once I was down to my water starter it stopped using vine whip and just used wrap, which let me win. very strange

Who the fuck are these? >Current list for Gen 8 Kubfu, Urshifu, Glastrier, Spectrier, ???, ???, ???, Regileki, Regidrago, Zacian, Zamazenta, Eternatus, Calyrex, Zarude

Internet went out for a bit. >Bea says eye (singular) when talking about the man who did horrible things to her little bro Hmmmm......WHOMST could THAT be I wonder........ >>3184 GG again, hopefully he does develop into something interesting. >>3186 Nope, I couldn't find the electric furbait anywhere. >She's Brazilian Now that I think about it and considering besides Canada, Britbong land is one of the most common places a ton of Brazilians flee to, that actually makes sense. It really depends tbh, southern Brazil is still largely White and is mostly German, so much so that in a few towns you got to the park and you'll see a ton of folks speaking fluent German (I'm counting Austrians in this too since there's a lot of them down there), but then you go to a few places like São Paulo or gods forbid the northeast into the Sertão and you'll have to put up with "nordestinos" aka the Brazilian equivalent of pajeets, then there's the "natives" whom are basically Aussie Abos (literally given their genetical makeup). >>3192 Regionals are counted separately instead of as forms, so I imagine that would be it.

very short demo. tons of style, the fakemon look good, just want some of the pokemon to learn typed moves quicker, the bird didn't learn gust until level 15.

>Was worried Moltres would get a Berserk proc each healthbar >Shitcoded and doesn't activate haha... >>3190 GG >>3193 >nordestinos Unfortunately given the makeup of Galar with their regional food being curry, Raijeet and Leon being...well... I don't think it's an unsafe assumption to make about Bea given Gamefreak's "vision" for Gen 8, sadly.

>Don't have Zapdos-G yet ??? Did jeetcode-sama check >= instead of > when comparing the legendaries captured variable?

>>3179 >>3186 >>3193 >>3198 thanks bros, sorry for missing the earlier ones

>>3199 It's even weirder than that. Zapdos-G's event is apparently flagged as done in the Wind Temple. The sparkle is gone. >>3201 GG.

>I am suddenly reminded of the idea I got an extremely good male Salandit (on my first run's loop, this one is female) >I suddenly start to question if giving my Salandit a diveral would equate to me giving my pet lizard HRT poison and thus completely ignore the possibility of even training it further >>3198 One can look through a lens of hope (coping) that she's just really tanned, but given gen 8's bullshit.....yeah.......

apparently their goons are fucking cavemen

>>3203 are they making hybrids? Also, How that rabbit doing for yah?

>>3201 All the extra swearing always gets a chuckle out of me

>Throws 20 pokeballs at the FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT Combee across 3 different attempts >It avidly refuses to be caught despite being at incredibly low health and paralyzed >It has a move that heals both it and the Beedrill adds to full health, making capture even harder

>>3208 seems they tried to, but had no success

looks like these 2 guys will get to experience what Coma does

>After beating the boss on floor 664, all of the doors in the tower open >This is communicated to you in no way, shape or form >>>Climb the tower again, chuddie Whatever. This is how you obtain the Fates that Apollo uses against you. >Clotho 130,50,120,100,70,120 statline (HP, Atk, Def, Spe, SpAtk, SpDef), Prankster as ability, has a divine type Aurora Veil that seemingly doesn't require weather. >Laquesis 110,80,120,80,80,120 Poison Heal ability This one is lacking a fanfic signature move (beyond the Divine Spears that all the divine mons share), but with access to 110/120/120 bulk and Leech Sneed, Tailwind, Spikes, Lizardon Lockons, Roost, Calm Mind, Clear Smog, U-Turn, Foul Play, Toxic, Screens, DDance, Swagger, Rapid Spin, Aromatherapy, and Rest, this thing is one of the tankiest and most customizable support mons ever made. >Atropos 80,120,80,110,120,80 Clear Body as ability This thing is absolutely loaded with disgustingly good custom attacks. Tempest is a 70BP special flying wrap-esque move. Wrathful Flames is better Heat Wave. Garudyne is Aeroblast that trades the increased crit rate for 10PP. Sinister Claw (not to be confused with Shadow Claw) is an 80 BP Dark physical move with no extra effect. All 3 of them learn extra moves as you level them but I'm out of rare candies to check and see what they do right now. >>3210 haha... >>3212 >>3216 Stealth Cultivation DLC.

>>3219 what is this game about? >>3220 gg

>>3221 not exactly sure, it hasn't given much on an actual purpose other than you and Aisha being field researchers

>>3220 >Stealth Cultivation DLC. the gardevoir does have the option to use Psychic outside of battle... but all it actually does is let you check your relationship with 3 other people

>>3221 Thanks. >>3222 Is it fun so far? >>3223 kek

>>3224 it's been somewhat decent, other than the battles having artificial difficulty that turned everything into extreme damage sponges before i modded that out

Finished my second playthrough. I have an EXTREMELY high suspicion the game will give me an opportunity to partner up with someone in contests, if that's the case who are you lads going with? I'm trying to prepare contest worthy mons for it, with.......less than stellar success...... >>3220 GG yet again. H-haha.....my luck is simply fantastic.....

https://files.catbox.moe/xarzpx.mov Jirachi's time to shine. This fight was relatively easy but I had decently good flinch and para RNG overall and aside from that Toxic miss at the start, everything mostly went as it needed to with each interaction.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!! >>3230 Machamp died for this little demon's (and Latias') crimes, sadge. GG.

cool, going any further right than this just crashes the game for no apparent reason

>>3233 actually it didn't crash, it just freezes for a full minute and a half

Total losses for both playthroughs: 9 1 to Murkrow, 1 to Gogoat, 1 to I don't even remember, 1 to Aiden's Hitmonchan opening his third eye, 4 to twenty turn Daren, 1 to Apollo. Phase 1 https://files.catbox.moe/7znzzc.mov 6v8, but a managable one as long as you respond to each threat accordingly and don't waste too many resources. Trading Jirachi for 2 Wish passes was a good decision. Suicune PP stalled the Divine Spears off the Glamor so I wasn't too worried about it coming back when the dreaded Max Revive message came up. Phase 2 https://files.catbox.moe/8f2jbo.mov lol said the treasures, lmao even. You could do this strat with Tapus if you wanted to as well; it might even be optimal since Fini offers Misty Terrain to keep you from dying to burn chip.

>Hears THAT theme starting to play NO, NO, DON'T YOU DARE, NO, YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO ME GAME, PLEASE DON'T, DO NOT...................

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This was a really fun team. You know it's a good game when you do two runs of it back to back and you're not sick of it. I'll happily do a third run when the third route releases. After having finished both routes and seen both endings, I don't think my placement of the game in my top 3 was hasty or premature at all; it absolutely earned its spot, and Lunatic mode is a fantastic addition for replayability.

>>3239 >The MVP gets cut off Board owner-sama I beg, raise image limit to 6 on the damn pokemon themed board.

>>3240 think 5's the global max

I do not know how to react to any of this.......I'm calling it a night, the new week kicks off in the biggest up and down swings I've ever seen, I am incredibly disappointed I was so wrong about quite a few things, because I do not know how to proccess any of this shit. What little I've gathered so far about the small changes here and there really please me, the UI got some decent revamps, the rest is small, but it could fall under spoilers so I won't ruin it, it does seem Steel, Ghost and Psychic GODS won though, at least seemingly, remains to be seen but I'll only play the first few days of the week to test out the new mechanics, then I'll wait for the rest of the lads for whenever they're ready to play through it. I'm also highly interested about doing a new run, shame I cannot physically convince myself to stop taking Psychic and Steel classes, maybe I could convince myself to quit Steel classes if I really tried, but not Psychic, I love my psybros and psywaifu too much. >>3238 H-hahaha........... >>3239 >>3240 Congrats once again bro and hopefully the balancenigger route doesn't take too long to come out.

i love fighting ground types Time to retvrn to gacha >>3236 >>3237 haha... >>3239 ggs, favorite route?

>>3228 honestly if it lets me I'm going to try and skip contests >>3230 >>3235 >>3246 gg

That was much harder without being able to ack the AI kek, probably the first time I REALLY felt the lunatic damage reduction, and I still haven't had a taste of switch 419 yet, haha... >>3247 Thanks

>>3242 >>3246 >>3247 Thanks bros. >Favorite Route Despite Noah becoming a high-tier waifu in the Chaos route, I think I like Order more overall because the Northern Angard sequence feels far better structured as well as the fight to the death on floor 665 of the Empyrean feeling far less contrived and unnecessary than it does on the Chaos route. >>3246 >>3248 GG

?????????????

>Hyper Beam hidden power that bypasses protect >Espeed that gives your other (((doubles))) mon priority as well >>>Domain Shift: ??? | Status | 0 Pwr | Perfect Acc | The user alters reality around it, replacing the active Field Effect with another one at random. and your choice between lmao auroraveil and a debuff move that will get cleansed by every single boss you can use it on because they all clear stat debuffs and status effects does terrain gambling even work on fields which don't have a natural way to be switched? I was hoping to actually use Z-moves and not have my one use turned into the 'fuck terrains' button like reborn but I suppose if I'm being given the option...

>>3255 >>3256 >>3257 >>3258 GG. Are you feeling it yet? Are you excited for your second run to experience both routes of Jan's "masterpiece"?

>master hand instantly paralyses your lead mon >also the terrain switches with every shield break so that cool new move you got is worthless great >>3259 thanks >second run I'll do a second run in 30 years when the final version is released as is I'm struggling to convince myself it's worth it to even finish this one

how many jan self inserts does that make now? 5?

>flareonguy walks up for another battle >hits a turn 1 crit after he lives with a focus sash >muscle memory reset >back to before the boss kill me even skipping the battles and text it's another full minute of waiting

First try, both with and without THAT switch on GODtran finally redeemed itself after all the magma storm related jobbings >>3261 gg >how many jan self inserts does that make now? 5? haha...

>>3263 GG. How many mons got ACK'd by psyshock?

>>3262 >wipe him out >I didn't battle you with the intent to beat you.... >puppet master is his sister and he uses his imagination power to fix her then WHY INITIATE A FUCKING BATTLE >>3263 thanks >haha... ugh

>I'm going to explain everything from the beginning... please don't

>>3261 GG. >>3260 >I'll do a second run in 30 years when the final version is released 30 is generous given Jan's dev cycle and scope creep. >Be on your deathbed, in terrible agony waiting for your body to give out >Load up rejuvenation because it can't possibly make it worse >It somehow does >>3266 haha...

Gonna add my box legends now, not gonna miss being completely assraped by ground Probably not going to hunt all the legendaires either, wanna try and finish today >>3264 >>3265 Thanks bros >How many mons got ACK'd by psyshock? Just Volcanion, I mostly got acked by the coverage kek

>>3268 Fair desu. The only legends that I think have merit as bosses themselves are Mewtwo, Manaphy, Koraidon, Miraidon, Chi-Yu, Chien-Pao, Kyogre, Nothing, Fug, Palkia, Dialga and Marshadow. The rest are kind of just busywork.

>>3267 >>3268 thanks

>Ancient curse cost + Flash Cannon + Fleur Cannon Jesus Christ So this is the power of switch 419...haha... I can already see the healspam making this incredibly tedious

>>3271 Now you understand why I made it a point to loop the full restores in a relatively controlled gamestate on the first mon when possible. You're probably going to want to make sure your mons aren't reliant on 5PP moves to do damage because in some of the later fights you will just outright run out of buttons to press if that mon is pivotal to pushing through that boss.

I have seen things.......truly terrible and calamitous things.........things that would scar the mind of even the most sturdy individuals........ Oh also, this is a warning that will probably be pretty important since I can imagine it getting pretty annoying, the new week starts off with a fetch quest were you need to get items, specifically a magnet, an ultra ball and 75 metal, I have no fucking clue how difficult said fetch quest is going to be, but regardless it's best to be ready for it. Oh also, on a side tangent, Ashime won, I will not elaborate how, but he won. >>3246 H-haha...... >>3247 Fair, sadly my love for Hoenn compels me to do them. >>3248 >>3255 GG. Ah chapter 15, what a complete and utter fucking soulcrushing disaster. Be at least the hag got nerfed to shit, this was one of the worst fights in any fangame ever in v13 intense.

>>3273 >Oh also, on a side tangent, Ashime won, I will not elaborate how, but he won. Do I need to download PLAF week 9 and find out kek?

Damn, I'm gonna have to THINK a bit now instead of mindlessly clicking buttons and winning, the horror I think the full restore spam is going to be a lot worse for me than Ashime kek >>3272 h-haha... >>3274 supposedly the public release is almost done, assuming last night's bugfixing patch holds

>>3274 You'll find out in time, the hint I'll give you is that it involves contests and has to do with one of your types. >>3275 GG.

>>3275 GG. On paper your team can snowball pretty well with Magearna once you get an advantage after the full restores, so you do have that going for you. Don't neglect Regileki either out of the 10 you rolled; you're going to want something to snipe some of the obnoxiously fast custom mons later when they're low health. What's your CHADdon set? >>3276 Downloading now. I'm moderately excited for this game's take on contests.

I went from suspecting Oak was playing with us Kreia style and now I just feel pity for the poor guy for the shit he has to put up with. >>3277 I haven't gotten around to them yet since I'm checking out the new stuff, just the opening session of the new week nearly gave me a stroke.

>>3276 >>3277 Thanks bros >On paper your team can snowball pretty well with Magearna once you get an advantage after the full restores True, I forgot to recode soul heart after updating kek, thanks for reminding me >What's your CHADdon set? Very mindless at the moment kek Also, where's the power herbs? I don't remember finding any

>Finally get some free time to do whatever on campus >I immediately get a popup of Gardenia asking me to deposit money in her bank I could make an innuendo out of this, but this girl would put some jews to shame with her obsession with money. I didn't get a closer look at it last night, but a certain character had their art changed and while my thoughts on the art change don't exactly make me happy, but they also made some INTERESTING additions to said character in a few departments if you catch my drift.

Oh okay, so Gardenia had some slight changes as well to fit in with her friendship event being added, she also hints there's something big if you manage to cap her money stock, I don't think that would be feasible unless you used the old x10 boost that would anon had.

>>3279 >Groudon No Bulk Up? Or does he not learn it in this game? >Also, where's the power herbs? I don't remember finding any Purchasable in either Aster or Pendragon along with Balloons, Weakness Policies, Sashes, and similar I think. Make sure your team has some kind of special tank because one fight in particular later on will be a huge problem if you don't. >>3280 Which characters were the victim of artfaggot drama?

>>3282 Sonia, her face looks really stupid now, but her thickness doubled, so I'm not sure what to make of this

>>3282 I picked hone claws because of magma storm related jobbings, but I did have bulk up on initially kek >Power herbs Almost certain they weren't in Aster, they might've gotten replaced by the buyable omni mint, it's also not at pendrago it seems, maybe replaced by PP maxes or the IV maxxer >finally look in my good friend eevee >>No results found it's so fucking over deerbros

WAIT, there's still hope.........game, don't break my heart like this......... Also wow, my hatred towards Whitney keeps skyrocketing each and every time I have the displeasure of interacting with her or hearing from her.

DIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

At least I'm not doing the CHAOS route this time h-haha

The oof train.........it came crashing back at full strength............

It all come back to EmpyreanGODS eventually

>Lapras everval was deleted in update It's so fucking over. >>3284 Really weird they didn't include the power herb; I must've entirely misremembered. (To be fair I didn't engage with 90% of the things the shop sold so I skimmed to the bottom for the nature mints and rare candies). Sorry bro.

Garde bros.........we're going Fug huntin'........... Oh, I also see who the second victim was now, new sprite isn't bad tbh. >>3290 And Kirlia still doesn't have a foreveral either........we lost.........

Okay nevermind, the sprite isn't actually that good.

Here we go.

Maearna got to start thanks to questionable AI decisions like swapping in another fairy type to tank a flash cannon and then swapping back to the other fairy type >>3290 F >To be fair I didn't engage with 90% of the things the shop sold I didn't either kek, you get given more than enough throughout a playthrough and especially a ng+, outside of sashes I guess

NOOOOOOOOOO DON'T LEAVE ME WITH HIM

>>3294 GG >>3295 haha... good luck for Nerissa.

Back, went to make coffee. >Leaf is the one who ends up derailing the campaign with sci-fi bullshit Leaf bros......I expected better of her......... >>3294 GG. >>3295 OH BOY h-haha........

Oh speaking of contests again, there's specific types selected for contests that do better in said contests, AND I HAVE ALMOST NO POKEMON OF SAID TYPES.

It doesn't end >>3296 >>3297 h-hahaha

Ah..........you were at my side all along.......my true mentor...........my guiding ROTUND RODENT......... >>3299 This genuinely makes me wish kaizofaggots never figure out this cursed tech or learn how to properly code Revival blessing.

MY FUARKIN HERO!

At least the winning attempt was "only" a 6v8 (i think) https://streamable.com/6f0uej

>>3302 Forgot pic

It all makes sense now... >>3301 >>3303 GG

Also did I completely gloss over it or do you not even get a reason as to why you cant use inss/shops in the northern part kek >>3305 Thanks

Contests are soul crushing.......absolutely soul crushing......... >>3303 GG and fuck this fight specifically. >>3305 Oh, you found one of the Garufa shitholes. Thanks bro, but sadly I lost pretty bad due to the bizarre priority mechanics.

>I can't win this contest due to not really having any Kantonian Pokemon or Pokemon from the types the game wants me to use I'VE COME SO FAR.......... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eVTXPUF4Oz4

>>3255 >>3258 >>3263 >>3271 >>3275 >>3294 >>3302 gg >>3273 what the hell did they do to my goat professor rowan's face

>>3307 >>3309 Thanks bros

>casually eats a zen headbutt then oneshots mega metagross this gen 9 thing is retarded I love power creep >>3307 >Garufa shitholes yeah this is spot where melia and friends were acking about her super cancer or whatever, was running around and remembered the book melia couldn't read >>3309 thanks

I see aelita brought her invisibility cloak that would've been really useful earlier

We need to RETVRN to KAAAAAAAAAAAAANTOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO............ >>3310 H-haha.......... >>3312 GG, I am really glad this fight got nerfed into oblivion, v13 Saki made kaizo fights look like a joke. Technically a Garufa shithole.

>>3312 gg

>>3305 When you get to the backstory of this whole shit wouldn't it be far-fetched to say that it'll be better if this back story lift a page from Nitroplus Blasters and say that Melia is actually a fragment of Arceus that waiting to be rejoin and be complete; halting the erasure of existence that they started.

The crowd demands KAAAANTOOOOOOOO.....I will give them KAAAAAAAANTOOOOOOO....... >>3309 Missed this, to be fair the poor guy is in shock of seeing the man besides him wearing that fit. He's also depressed he doesn't get to see HER anymore.

did we run out of yellow ink why are we bolding things in black now >>3314 >>3315 thanks >nerfed into oblivion >No longer will you the player need to deal with Wonder Room Glitch Field shenanigans yeah... >>3316 no matter what the best option is jan will think of it and go the direct opposite direction >branching paths not after chapter 14, they're going to come back into one path because doing two things at once is too hard >god cancer will be handwaved away >team xen will never have any stated goals nor any reason for anybody to have ever joined them >madman x written out of the story

wasn't this tied to arceus number 3 how could you be an interceptor without mr sleepy taking a nap in the back of your soul

>>3319 >you made a contract with v-melia too right? who the fuck is variya I thought atrest was the interceptor guy

aiiie not another revival blessing At least this one didn't constantly spam a +2 omniboost haha Weird how she only shows up for the E4 battle on the CHAOS route >>3319 haha...

>You have some nerve to face me after I trapped you with no escape other than through me this bitch is retarded

Ethan's mirroring is making my life complete and utter hell.......... >>3319 You know that one Spongebob meme about everyone being Squidward? That's basically going to be the plot with Interceptors..........

>>3321 gg

>why did my mon gain exp >oh yeah my level cap just raised >all of crescent's pokemon are level 88+ every fucking time with this shit

>>3318 >no matter what the best option is jan will think of it and go the direct opposite direction seems to me he doesn't want to be find out and wanted his story to be a complete surprise; which is stupid if you asked me. >>3318 >god cancer Most likely revealed Melia is what left of ShinOh Arceus that was slained prior to the start of this game; the only way for her to be cured is for her to be complete again and stop the decay from erasing all of existence >madman x Also revealed to be another failed attempt to revive ShinOh Arceus, traveling through space and time to nudge the path along to stop the decay >Xen [spoiler] remains of Cipher, secretly caught wind of the Arceus rejuvenation plan and attempted to capture Melia for complete control over existence[spoiler] Dark world It's fucking Hell, an afterlife reserved for the wicked; Cipher trying to utilize its energy to produce Shadow Pokemon (kinda like Argent Energy from Doom 2016+)

Damn, wonder how long beta testing will take >>3324 Thanks

>You can sabotage Ethan by getting a pretty bad Pokemon for contests and changing it for a better one before the first performance without downsides to purposely make him lose I feel like shit for doing this, but I am a salty loser.

>Ethan's AI is extremely unpredictable >If you switch off your lead into another Pokemon to try and throw him off, he also chooses a random copy of one of your Pokemon He's even copying my salty and underhanded strats, gods fucking dammit Ethan........

>>3328 it sounds like you'd have to build a pokemon with moves that only were good if used first or last depending on the order you go in, even if he mirrors you he can't always go first or last. idk if that effect is in these contests though

I am losing what's left of my sanity to this.......I don't know what to do......... >>3330 The issue is Ethan's AI despite copying you is extremely unpredictable, then there's the fact your movepool has to be HYPER SPECIFICALLY tuned for contests, and then you have to keep in mind what your opponents have, what strategy you can utilise, what metric you want to garner points with and so much, too much in fact to keep in mind and Ethan is that chaotic variable, he is just like you, just as clever, but impossible to control. Contests are super frustrating to say the least and contest knowledge doesn't help with shit here.

wow

>>3332 gg

Hoenn GODS literally cannot stop winning, meanwhile I'm losing.......all of my damn sanity......... >>3332 GG, I imagine Labolas is a bitch on lunatic.

pyukumuku wins again >>3332 GG

This is certainly a different circumstance than the CHAOS route kek

Fuck I forgot about Cresselia kek >>3334 >>3335 >>3337 Thanks bros >I imagine Labolas is a bitch on lunatic. No, he spams his electric special move on Groudon

>>3337 >>3338 gg

>allow me to tell you the history of this world, the story of my people who fell long ago... please please please don't >>3340 thanks

I made a jojoke earlier, but I wasn't expecting someone to literally become a Jojo character that looks straight out of part 2 or 3. >>3337 GG and based, deep earth is hell. >>3338 GG as well bro, still don't understand why he only has Pokemon on normal difficulty. >>3339 That's really weird.

>remember the 7 million a surprisingly low number of casualties for an entire world's worth of people rebelling against their god >>3342 thanks >deep earth is hell it took a bit of finagling but most it wasn't the worst battle so far also I forgot I could just spin the terrain roulette with the special snowflake z-move but eh

HOLY SHIT.

I thought Leaf and possibly Klara were wetter than a river, I stand corrected, HOLY FUCK.

>people couldn't fuck after arceus died ?? did they just not know how was arceus puppeteering their bodies when they went to bed and they woke up with the woman mysteriously pregnant just say the sun turned off jan you fucking idiot none of this makes any sense >pokemon turned into dust just like arceus did!! >and then... SO DID HUMANS!!!!! >so we took arceus' loot drop and turned it into a giant soul recycler at the core of the earth >and also we made a reset thing that works somehow, just don't worry about it, and reset everything awesome stuff

>>3347 This is not even the worst part of this abortion believe it or not, it gets worse........

>this is our final try... I'll help you protag-kun! >renegade kicks in >fuck everything up and ruin the world >long pointless cutscene >melia... is le CRAZY!!!! >hey protag-kun I hate you and know you want to destroy the world but let's work together to save it

>>3347 must have had the HL2 sex blocker thing

apparently i can buy a house

>Nerissa used the revive move ack, at least it was only twice. It did lead into a retarded gigaboosted mismagius thoughever kek

>>3354 gg

>>3350 >that zorua of yours was part of an experiment. >same with that gardevoir you acquired recently.

Debatable >>3355 Thanks

>ended up being busy all day and only now can play Well then, does anyone at least know if Urshifu is available?

>>3358 in awakening yes, there's a waterfall you can hop on rocks to near river village, you'll fight kubfu and you'll get it and the two evo items afterward

>>3358 It is, East of Pernetta town after chapter 5 starts

>>3361 >>3362 Thanks, really needed a physical attacker for my team

>>3360 Oh.....I'm sure she and Penny will be best of friends.

>>3302 >>3303 G fucking G. How many tries did it take and did you get the curse +5 omni setup on any of them? >>3306 The justification in the Order route is that you're actively invading hostile territory and that they're acting under royal mandate. Why you can't use the Inns in the Northern Continent on the Chaos route when, for all they know, you're on their side is a mystery for the ages. >>3321 GG on clussy. >>3354 GG. For my team Corus took an eternity to outmanuver here.

>>3360 That looks like more digimon than Pokemon tbh

Think I found a friendly guy

That took about 40 minutes >>3365 Thanks >How many tries did it take and did you get the curse +5 omni setup on any of them? 3 I think, mostly due to running out of steam on the dreaded 6v10s, The +5 Omniboost setup happened on the second battle, 3rd pic rel, the only thing I could do was outlast it since I had 4 mons left kek >Why you can't use the Inns in the Northern Continent on the Chaos route when, for all they know, you're on their side is a mystery for the ages. erm chuddie don't you know that it's because nobody hecking likes noah there? I think that was the ""justification"" at least >Corus took an eternity to outmanuver here. Can probably just chalk it up to vastly different playstyles kek

fug

>>3369 GG. I found these rematches extremely tedious since they're overall much easier than their base fights yet still really good at wasting time. >3 I think, mostly due to running out of steam on the dreaded 6v10s, The +5 Omniboost setup happened on the second battle, 3rd pic rel, the only thing I could do was outlast it since I had 4 mons left kek Thief skill is definitely a gamechanger in that situation. Well done. >erm chuddie don't you know that it's because nobody hecking likes noah there? I think that was the ""justification"" at least Dev-sama really did just decide "I don't feel like making interiors for all this shit" on the final leg of the game kek. >Can probably just chalk it up to vastly different playstyles kek For sure. Tangentially related, magic bounce bosses tongue my anus. >>3370 haha...

>>3369 gg

I've remembered that I never actually went back and tested to see if castform crest lead replaced default weather, but after abusing a swift swim goonsquad against cute anju I can say with confidence that castform crest lead replaces the 'default' weather permanently God I fucking hate the fairy faggot field >>3354 >>3369 GG

n-no... it can't be...

looked at this game for awhile, it definitely looks weird but it's a full 8 gyms and elite 4. getting worried on what the plot is gonna be though because it's using infinity's font, you are found unconcious and you have amnesia, if this is another coma ending I'm gonna screech

>Koraidon basically acked 2 of it's health bars by itself kek Might DoTmaxx as best I can for the faggot, Protect TM, save me >>3371 >>3372 >>3374 Thanks bros >Thief skill is definitely a gamechanger in that situation. It wasn't ready unfortunately, I didn't have an idea of the autism I was walking into kek >Tangentially related, magic bounce bosses tongue my anus. haha...

fairy, the new type Light, and flying respectively. they all look kind of shit, I guess I'll get the snake >>3378 gg

>random guy busts in and takes the cauldron mon since the professor let some random hobo take a starter >the cauldron gets meditate, the snake gets growl my luck has been shit with starters

people think it's a racist thing to say but I can barely see this woman

Oh, route split So I have seen people mention a third route in development so I guess neither of these will lead to a good ending Probably going to side with Pixie here because it probably makes more sense for a first run

>>3384 >Pixie path is restoring ORDER Thinking about it last time I did a law run first was my first SMTIV run, time to do it again I guess

ACK CHADtranGODS won

>>3387 Hahahah what an oversight.

>>3387 lmao

>>3387 holy kek

>>3386 Know what, nah going to go Chaos first, it feels wrong doing Law first nowdays that I use this name

I do feel kinda bad for her with this dialogue, I really liked her overall but in the end I doubt any major goddess will actually do anything to help

>>>>>random mexican tranny from a sidequest is also an interceptor ?????????????????? ??????????????????????????????????????????????????? >>3387 pfft

I might actually see if it acks bosses in one hit it would still take 5 turns to charge vs RoarGOD thoughever >>3388 >>3389 >>3390 Definitely a top 3 moment in the playthrough for me kek

I like the purple, also once again Togekiss was almost the bane of my existence with flinches Forneus does kinda fit the rest of the team naming scheme if you know Grima's lore

>>3393 >but I wasn't chosen by the lady who somehow someway chooses interceptors despite the whole thing having been built up as there only being one per fate cycle or whatever >no I used my powers as a strong mexican transwomyn and became one myself!!!!!!! just don't worry about it BIGOT CHUD is this a joke am I being fucked with

>calm mind tm and access to gambling before gym 1 >you can get the other 2 starters for 400 coins each neat

>this guy is so evil! >he only became friends with you so you would change his fate! okay? >durr if you're fated to die a horrible death and regret your actions you SHOULDN'T go to the guy who can change fate for help!! if I get a guy to fix my truck and we talk and become friends he isn't suddenly not my friend because the only reason I approached him in the first place was to fix my truck fuck this is so stupid

>>3394 >It only acks one hp bar lel good kill button for Regieleki though >>3396 haha...

at least I don't lose money but that's nuts

Oh you can go full Apoc Massacre Route I don't hate these characters so I am not gonna kill anyone
