Hi there! Just call me Rosa...not Rosa heart. Why you might ask? Well, I had the dumb idea to give my character this name thinking ( Hey I should give them a last name! )....Derp. Then of course everytime someone said my name in game they said the full name. So...I HAVE played pokemon before, you think I would have known that but for whatever reason my brain decided to shut off on me. XD
Anyways, I jumped in at V10 and boy when they said it was a hard pokemon game they ment it! I even played on normal just to keep it some what casual and the game was like: HA! Nice try! Gah....spent so many hours fighting the same fights over and over and over. -_- Mainly because my go to strat for pokemon games are make a team of a core 6, maybe 1 or 2 as swap ables as needed. Well let me tell you, Reju don't take to kindly to my casual play style. Though, for as much as I hated the pain I suffered I couldn't help but fall in love with the story and characters. To avoid spoilers I won't mention what points but I ended up getting very emotional at some of the major plot points in game.
Now that I'm at the end of v10, I wanted to come here and see just how others have dealt with their playthroughs. How did I get to the end you might ask considering I had such a hard time? Items....looooosts and lots of items. Despite them kneecapping the usualy money you get at the start of the game, the let out near mid to end game is what helped me. That, and I ended up having like, 20-22 swapable pokemon as needed, all kept at current cap.
So what were your guys' strats? Did you horde more pokemon then me? Were you a perfect IV trainer? Or did you item glug like me? Also, what was your main six you used? Mine were:
Samurott, Pangoro, Houndoom, Raichu, Noivern, and Chimecho earlier game and then swap pangoro with Mawile after you know what happened.
