Maybe i'm just used to, well...being able to pick these kinds of things up quickly and easily. This one...It's hard. It's very hard. So i found some info on the game and i guess Levi's special is known to be broken...maybe i should use a different character By the way, has anybody ever killed a crawler? I haven't found any possible way yet...if i try to divebomb their neck, they jump and eat me. If i am on the ground anywhere near them, they outrun and eat me. I tried going for them right after they jump but their delay is nothing like the ones that do the body slam; it's near-instant. Perhaps with another person as a distraction it'd be easy but with this thing sconstantly going after me, i can't seem to find a way to kill it.

I just spent most of the night tryi9ng to beat just 15 titans without dying. Maybe i was obsessive. I got it down to 4 but sometimes it just glitches for me and they grab me. Maybe i hit the nape obviously, several times even, with no kill....or i try to do the special slash straight into the neck and it shoves me in some random other direction and they grab and kill me anyway. It's so hard when there is more than one though near each other, because they block each other from view but can attack you through each other as if they are not even solid. It's a little ridiculous. I worry though that i'm doing something wrong because i kept feeling like i should be able to do it, i have all sorts of great ways to take them down now, but i still get screwed over often enough that i can't get all 15...

I am interested, i'm about to play it now i suppose. No official american AoT games yet i realize (japanese 3ds one looks awesome, planned for an american release but...no date yet.) Wow, Chuckles is taken...lame.

Ame of course you would tease us by saying there's a new feature and not telling us what it is... Congrats to Fezzdog though, this will be interesting. fingers crossed for smell-related auth activities

I just don't understand this....i mean, what you said isn't offensive, it's just...well, impossible. If it is undoubtedly true for some people, you can't say that it's something to believe in or not believe in. We are not talking about ghosts or aliens or deities, this is something that is simply true...for some people. To say that you don't believe in it is the same as saying you don't believe that Democrats exist. They exist, whether you agree with what they say and want or not. It doesn't seem like something that could be argued, which is why i don't understand how...people....are attempting to argue about it.

Well apparently i have been reading very different things from what you've been reading because I haven't seen anything like that, and everything i've read is incredibly specific.

Now you're just being silly. It has nothing to do with me or what i would think really. I'm saying that the astrology explanations describe me accurately. Everything i have ever read about it applies to me, the way i think and the way i behave. It's completely undeniable. As i said before, this might not be the same for other people, but for me, i know how it is. You can disagree with the astrological information applied to you, and that's fine, and if it doesn't apply to you then that's one thing, but you can't sit here and say that it applies to nobody and expect to be taken seriously. That's a farce, truly. You could try to convince people that, since you don't like apple juice, nobody could ever like apple juice, and i would say that it's silly just the same. But if it applies to somebody, seriously, how can you say that? I don't understand. If even one person finds it applicable to them, then it's true and real and makes sense. If it's not applicable to you, that doesn't mean it's just some scam that can't really apply to anybody, right? I mean, do you really think that? I'm not trying to attack ya here i just find it...well, perplexing that somebody would think that way.I don't know about those prediction things though, or if they apply to me or anybody because i don't follow them. I just know that the descriptions of gemini people describe me.

I picked the "somewhat true" option because i can't be sure in regards to other people. For me though, it's always spot-on. I am a Gemini. If you go and do some research into how gemini people act and think, you'll be reading about me pretty much. Energetic, creative, enthusiastic, witty, extremely talkative. Constantly worrying about their impression and their quality, and as such needing reassurance. Etcetera. Loves women but sex is not a priority. Shows outward happiness even when unhappy, so they do not appear otherwise to anybody else. Tends to spread interest across a wide variety of things. Dislikes being tied down. I don't know how it is for anybody else, or if it's accurate for you, but for me, it's all completely true. To the point of absurdity, perhaps.

The time of happiness is upon you. There will be much celebration.

Kill La Kill was very enjoyable for me as well.

I don't understand really, this is a bit vague. It seems as if you want to keep it that way, and you can of course, but i'm not sure what to say without more information. Also, the way you said that first part makes it seem as if it was actually vital that you be dishonest toward your friend...which is not something i would expect anybody to ever be able to say. So...I want to help if possible but also i am very curious about this. I can definitely say though that people deal with stress in different ways and it's important to find an outlet for that or you'll end up, probably inadvertently, taking it out on other people. Most people are quite sensitive though, even mentally fragile perhaps, and something like this could really topple the house, as you said.

You could put something in the game explaining that they are indeed based on real people. It'd leave a pile of rubble where the fourth wall was, but somehow i don't think you'd mind that... Anyway, if you're worried about it, you can do that. As it is, there will be many people that will have reactions to certain parts of the game that would be quite different if they knew more. Whatever you decide to do though, people will always have differing interpretations and feelings regarding the game and its scenes and characters. You can provide them with more information but that's about it for direct influence.

What channel would even show that and why. I've never heard of such a thing.

That feel when your friend is obviously too drunk to operate a bow and arrow, and you know it's a bad idea, but you say nothing because it's hilarious when he completely misses the tree.

You really need more type coverage. It's a good team with some very viable strategies, but you mentioned some problems and i realized that you don't have much in terms of move type variation. This can be tricky on a mono team, but still. See if you can move some things around though, maybe switch out aegislash for empoleon or something else that might deal with fire and ground types effectively.

Swagger can be a problem because pokemon with Prankster will spam it, making sure that any pokemon you have is constantly confused. Since i don't regularly run pokemon with Own Tempo, this has been consistently annoying (probably because my luck is ridiculously terrible) so i think it should at least not be allowed on pokemon with Prankster, because unless you have extreme speed, magic bounce, or own tempo, you're pretty much guaranteed to become confused. When combined with Foul Play, it's devastating, because even if a pokemon is a special attacker, with a low attack stat, it will be raised more and more, and then destroyed. It really does become a game of luck at that point. Baton Pass, on the other hand, is fairly easy to counter, mainly because it really requires a lot of set up, and a sweeper can simply take out the baton pass pokemon. The most common baton pass pokemon seems to be Ninjask, which is really quite fragile. Even if you don't take out the pokemon before it passes some stat boosts, you can switch in a tank holding a Red Card (that's a viable solution to a wide variety of problems) or simply set up as the passer is setting up as well, and destroy the pokemon upon switch-in. I could go on. Baton Passing as a strategy can be very effective, especially when passing boosts onto a pokemon that cannot boost itself in that way. All in all though, it's fairly easy to counter in general, if you can be prepared for it.

Well i'm sure you still have stressful situations in your life. Nobody has a perfectly harmonious experience in this cruel, often nonsensical world. I'm not sure if you mean that you hide your emotions, or you do not experience much emotion. I belong to the latter group, actually. That is, I very rarely experience firsthand emotions besides joy and happiness. Of course, this is a result of extreme trauma i went through several years ago, such that I realized that my only choices were to destroy all negative emotions within my conscious mind, or die. Many people I knew that were in that situation chose to commit suicide. Anyway, I don't really feel anger or sadness anymore. Interestingly though, I've never felt any embarrassment or awkwardness in my life, I am only aware of their existence because of secondhand observations and subsequent explanations. Oh dear, it seems i may have gone on a bit of a rant again... Anyhoo, could you elaborate please?

You should become an exorcist and we can cleanse Fezzdog of his smelly demons.

I remember when I told Ame a few months ago that the crit tables seemed to have never been updated for Gen 6 (since i had been using a Gallade with high crit rate moves, holding a scope lens, and not getting crits nearly as often as i probably should) and she didn't know that they had changed for gen 6. A lot of people didn't know actually, it's pretty interesting. A Honchkrow with Super Luck, holding a Scope Lens, using Night Slash, has a 100% crit rate. Absol can do this as well. Anyway, I think we will see Spheal and Snorunt, and probably Delibird. We might get Frillish, and if we're really lucky and Ame wants to be nice, we could get Clamperl. I doubt that though...but i can hope. Regardless, Tentacool is probably all but guaranteed, along with a few other water pokemon, such as Qwilfish and Wailmer. I don't know what she will do for mountain pokemon, there's only so much left in that regard, so a Charmander event is not so Farfetch'd. Of course, when we finally get to use Mega Evolutions, it will be far more useful.

My favorite: If i can get just one Cotton Guard off on my Mega Ampharos, it will practically shrug off a STAB Earthquake. With 2 it can pretty much wall any physical attacker. It does not heal, but even with no boosts is tanks pretty well. Also, i give it Agility so it can outspeed everything, and it has so much power that it can often wreck a team with ease. After that i'd say Shuckle, trolling people by trapping them and slowly killing them with Infestation is great; it survives so well when used a certain way. Starmie has been quite effective as a tank for me recently, partly due to the wonder of Reflect Type and how helpful it can be on a tank. Cresselia can tank well and also destroy enemies pretty quickly. I love using Snorlax, and when i get my Snorlax set up, nothing stands a chance. It just takes some time though, and a Conkeldurr could destroy it in the first couple turns.

Hey wait why did samson's badge not raise the cap? i mean, there wasn't all that much, but i am surprised, especially since we got to see several pokemon at lv70+... Also, if anybody had any trouble with Samson, get an Archeops and teach it Acrobatics. Instantly killed Mienshao and Chesnaught, had little trouble with others. It outspeeds his whole team, although conkeldurr survived a hit, but all my pokemon are only around lv61-62...maybe i don't grind enough, i fought every trainer i ever found and haven't swapped anything in my team since they were in the low 40s. I'm pretty worried about Terra though, i hope she is the gym leader of episode 13, but she will be tough, i'm sure. Maybe i just want my Granbull to have earthquake finally...i have no ground moves on my team yet, so i cannot supereffectively hit pure electric type pokemon. That would be quite useful. If we get to fight Terra and she gives us Dig, i might give up on the idea of getting good TMs in Reborn. This episode gave us Swagger...meh.

Were we expected to gain much experience for our pokemon in this episode? there were a few trainers and a gym leader and a little grass, not even any gym lackeys, and with that some of my pokemon didn't even gain a whole level, and none of them gained more than 2. I don't know if i am expected to grind a lot, but i really feel like there should have been more trainers.

Well done Ame, it's rare to see a reference to very old american animation. Wow though. So ridiculous. Did anybody else notice and remember this? It's not something you see much anymore.

Okay, it works if you don't go through on your bike. So, to anybody playing this episode, don't use your bike when you go with Cain. Oh...i don't think it was a freeze though, my laptop is pretty powerful and has never had anything like that happen before.
