9/10, fiery and pissed off enough!

The first one I'll keep and hell, it makes me want to read desertpunk manga. I will read you some day, Trigun, Sunabozu!

Yeah, that's true. Allthough I'm pretty set for now... Mael, mael me. Again, there is no school like the old school, and that can involve an awful lot of things. Also, I like small doses of x-punk. I mean steampunk, biopunk etc.

For starters, you have only one priority move that is Suckerpunch, which isn't always reliable and definately can't be spammed mindlessly, so I'd suggest you change Dnite's Iron Head to Extremespeed and Emboar's EQ to Sucker Punch as well. That will help Nite run CB better outside of Trick Room, and also not have Emboar be a sitting duck when TR expires. You are obsessed with HP Fire. Emboar however takes care of any and all steel types that they could throw at you, so you can replace the suboptimal HPs for something else. Give Reuni Recover over HP Fire and Focus Miss over Shadow Ball: you need to help your TR setter stay alive as best as it can, and Psy+Ghost get walled by every and any Dark type there is. At least Psy+Fighting get walled by Ghost+Dark or Ghost+Steel, which are very specific threats. And you need to Recover in order to set and reset TR. Also give Gengar any other move you want, either another, stronger coverage, or Icy Wind for disruption, or Taunt, or Wow, or Destiny Bond. Just not HP Fire. And if you miss the Fire moves, you can always go MixKrow: Heat Wave to bop steel switchins and have no stat drops, Icy Wind to lower the opponent's speed on the switch and outspeed next turn to hit hard, Sucker to Moxie-abuse the kills that your special attacks will bring, and the last slot can remain Brave Bird. Sorry, I kill the Steel Wing theme, but not sorry. Also consider Stealth Rock on Empoleon for them singles battles.

Actually I think that this talk is kinda premature... The stats do not include the very last weekend yet, and I don't think we still have that much data about Bracket 4 to make rankshifts affect it. Hell, I'm not sure about if we have enough data for B3! I think the best would be to wait until next weekend is over, we get a bigger sample size on B3 mostly and B4 as well, and we can examine it all better. As of now, I think that B1 is fine. I have a suspicion that Ariel has been feasting on people for a number of reasons (the intricacies of triples, the multiple efforts required by people and he fact that anyone can challenge her, meaning that some people fighting her are not really up to the task). Venus needs to move up, since it has evidently caused problems for the totality of the league's challengers... but I think she could only be swapped by Lucifer: here's my line of thoughts: Ariel plays triples exclusively. Elliot plays doubles exclusively. Olivia plays either singles or doubles. Nick plays either triples or singles. Haley plays singles mostly. And Venus plays singles exclusively. I think it would be best to prevent early league being almost exclusively played in multis, keep Helen in B3 and have Lucifer fill Venus' place in B2. But yeah, I'd prefer to wait for this past weekend's data and the next one's too.

Having Haunter means that you've been in the Wasteland, so just grab the one that is there. Here is my Item Guide and the Black Sludge is in the Held Items section in the OP.

Yes, I know the formula has its merits, but sometimes it gets a little bit too much, especially if you look at it from a distance, making big story events seem anticlimactic in favour of some gym battles that won't always make a ton of sense. Anyway, I really trust Huk, you, Zim and the whole brain trust (I mean think tank) behind the project to deliver the goods and the story at a good pace.

Azery nation nerfing Duster in E2,5, con-fuckin-firmed Anyway, that's exciting news, not only because it means that the story will claim the pole position in the game, but because it fixes one of the very weird things in Reborn: with the episodical releases, the climactic battle at the end of the ep is not rescuing an area from the vine infestation but battling the teacher in the local academy. Not rescuing an area of a teleportation occurence that plagues it and destroying the evil team's base, but battling the 7yo boy next to the lake. Not rescuing the girl who jumped from the waterfall twice from the claws of the evil team, but partaking in a circus spectacle of a gym battle, kid you not Tomas. Really, Reborn has always followed the pattern of "the episode starts, the plot continues, a subplot reaches a peaking point, subplot concludes, gym battle, episode koniec" and I'll be glad to see it break with Se7en.

That's really interesting and a great thought! Will it work as a bigger and better version of post-episode content, like the ship's held and the police sidequests in E1, or will other story points serve as episode finish lines?

Don't worry Tomas, I will download E2, find all the gamebreaking bugs first and play the gym before the Azery nation attacks again and nerfs it to death just like Mary

I'll actually avoid digging back into the depths of this topic. I'm kinda excited to find out what this old hardass, as Mary called him, is gonna be like. And I'm kinda excited to see what kind of out-of-the-box hardass he is. Considering Mary is a gym leader that spends most of her time on the tavern bar, my expectations about something interesting and atypical are elevated

Pas mal!

Ok, feel free to try and avi me. Old-schoolness is something that I definately appreciate.

First one is a formerly reachable linkstone. Ame managed to remove a platform needed to reach it in E14.6 to delag the route. The second is nothing really valuable... Also it's reachable in the current version, have fun figuring it out.

Btw, you can always be a little more relaxed with the rules and grab Treecko or Charmander and later Mareep from Jasper Ward, since their megas are dragons. Would make a really interesting run!

Made in Azery

The funny fact is, I was actually was speaking the language of that land... and the ladies there were all from my home country. I didn't realize that in time, sadly.

In the meanwhile, try to find out what language the people serving the food at the uni restaurant speak natively, learn to say "thank you" in that language well enough, try it sometimes and see if the bill magically sinks. It's not a trick that hasn't worked before. The sad part is I found out AFTER leaving that town and that uni.

I thought that Defiant Milotic being listed as a threat was worse Anyway, I like the third mod with Mega Manectric. Which I suggested in that status of yours It is a Pokemon that annoys the hell out of offensive teams that are all around in OU because of its incredible speed tier, it has the coverage to bust Lando, Ferro, Sci, a weakened Chomp, bulky waters without Ground typing open. Not a wallbreaker because of its sheer firepower, but the coverage, speed and momentum are great treats. I still have great faith in you doing it with your original team though. Tinker and SERIOUSLY CONSIDER MORE STATUS SPREADING, and maybe even running Knock Off on Mew over something to do more item removal, especially for scarves. About the second mod, I suggest you just go even more offensive! You have AV Raikou who is very annoying for offense for the same reasons as Manectric albeit toned down and can even pack surprise Signal Beam if you're afraid of Hoopa's wallbreaking. Add Healing Wish Defog Latias in the place of Mew and you have someone who can do her own whackamole with Draco, use Psyshock or even Chic if you want the tad more firepower, remove hazards and give you the Kiss of Life. 350 speed is great and let's hope all Mega Diancies run HP Fire too. Call it a lazy suggestion, but she's one of the few mons that offers the same role compression as Mew and has the Kiss of Life. Yes she gets rekt by Ttar and Bisharp, but Mew had problems with them anyway and you also got Keldeo who can deal wit them. ...she's Skitty's favourite Pokemon too, that should count.
