deadpool848 Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I picked pokemon that would help me counter all of the leaders in the game. Pokemon that had setup moves, bulk, speed, and power. As stated, I simply planned better. Anywhore back on topic. It sucks when you encounter a shiny that you can't catch. Not everyone looks up every leader in a pokemon game, then min/maxes there team to beat them with no issues. Everyone plays differently. Also you derailed your own topic, since you started talking about the gym leaders being easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helia Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Well, sucks for you that that happened. Might I suggest everyone to destress their breasts now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RagesSorrow Posted March 10, 2015 Author Share Posted March 10, 2015 Well, sucks for you that that happened. Might I suggest everyone to destress their breasts now? For some that seems impossible. I've had a few good shiny encounters though. Like a shiny ditto from 7th street. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Chespin Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 So I'm doing the route 2 forest puzzle that involves the Pinsir's and Heracross'. I challenge one of the Pinsir's and I get this: http://gyazo.com/b28ad5a078f61e184be313158a83d0a7 This just isn't fair. I know that feel. Just the other day I encountered a shiny Heracross via the forest puzzle. Wai Ame wai ;_; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lostelle Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 You should've seen back when regular enemy trainer's Pokemon could be shiny. One of shofu's old videos has him fighting a trainer's Shiny Mightyena. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tringus Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Since Pinsir and Heracross are wild, then wouldn't they be obtainable by just catching them? If that is possible, then what's so unfair about catching a shiny? Back in the day, if you saw a shiny, you would do EVERYTHING to catch it. I know I do! Even though there are new ways of catching shiny Pokemon, I still catch them the best I can. "I don't want to catch a shiny." Said no one ever.

NickCrash Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Trevo, this Pinsir cannot be caught. In order to get Heracross, you must beat a lvl55 Pinsir. That one happened to be shiny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Guess I'm the first Trevo :] But I only run away from Shines that I already have, but if it is new and I like it, I'll try to catch it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 "I don't want to catch a shiny." Said no one ever. Sadly, I think I'm the one guy that doesn't care about shinies. I mean some of them look really cool, but I prefer the normal sprites for some reason (except Shiny Ludicolo. He's the best shiny). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fury Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 You beat Nerf Noel #3 not Noel and almost everyone was nerfed I'm curious, what was the original Noel like? When I first fought him in Episode 10 (before the 10.5 update), he had Cinccino, Swellow, Staraptor, Girafarig, Porygon-Z, and Clefable. I was able to beat him on my first try, but I had a CC Infernape to outspeed and OHKO the Cinccino and Porygon-Z, so for me the battle was super easy.

Commander Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 The original Noel (10-10.5) wasn't too hard IMO (except that Clefable). I can understand removing Staraptor though because that thing could hit hard and his team was already pretty good. Originally, he led with Mincinno and that thing in and of itself was a challenge to take down. If you don't OHKO it (which you probably won't), expect to be hit hard by at least Tail Slap (unless you have a Steel type). I haven't fought any of the old leaders with their new field effects (except Julia) so I can't tell you which leaders were nerfed and buffed, but Serra was the only leader who was nerfed hard for the 10.5 release. Aya and Florinia were toned down a little bit and a couple leaders got new Pokemon, but that's about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fury Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 That was the original. But now, his Clefable is Fairy, and he leads with a Wigglytuff instead of Girafarig I think. He used to lead with Cinccino, that much I remember. If you didn't have a fast Pokemon with a strong enough Fighting-Type attack or a bulky enough Steel-Type, you were going to have a very bad time. I also fought against him with a different file right after Gen 6 and the first wave of Field Effects were implemented into the game, so I remember the transition from Normal-Type to Fairy-Type for his Clefable, though I wasn't aware that Girafarig was replaced with Wigglytuff. This must have been done recently. The original Noel (10-10.5) wasn't too hard IMO (except that Clefable).

Aya and Florinia were toned down a little bit and a couple leaders got new Pokemon, but that's about it. Wait, Staraptor was removed from Noel's roster? Aw, now I'm sad. Some leaders are more difficult than others with the new Field Effects. Julia's still easy. I prefer pre-nerf Florinia since half her team back then (Carnivine, Foongus, and Breloom) didn't outright die to Toxic Spikes, but the more Sandstorm-focused team looks really cool since you never see that sort of thing. Corey got a lot more powerful with the Corrosive Mist field, but once you get rid of it, it's really only his Skuntank and Crobat that could give you trouble as usual. Haven't battled against Shelly, Kiki, or Aya with their new Field Effects yet. Don't know if Serra has one by now, but I'm hoping the Ice Field will be implemented soon to make her more difficult (I really, REALLY miss Double Battle Serra). Radomus' is really cool as it checks Bug-Types, which his Exeggutor and Malamar have a 4x weakness to. I'm saddened that Charlotte doesn't lead with Ninetales anymore. Darmanitan is powerful, don't get me wrong, but going in blind for the first time and seeing her throw out Typhlosion and Ninetales at the same time, have Drought kick in, and have their Eruption/Heat Wave attacks change and compliment the field under Sunny weather just makes you go "woah, calm down". And even if you make it rain all up in there, her second Ninetales checks that. It's a good challenge to have to overcome, but I guess not everyone felt that way, hence the nerf, which again saddens me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His old team consisted of: Cinccino, Girafarig, Clefable, Porygon-Z, Staraptor & Swellow. Currently, (Episode 14) he has: Wigglytuff, Cinccino, Girafarig, Clefable, Porygon-z & Swellow.

That Staraptor was nice and powerful too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KillerTyphlosion Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 (edited) I had a lot of trouble with noel. I don't know what episode it was but my biggest problem was that Cinccino. None of my pokémon could outspeed it or OHKO it so it destroyed my team with the flinch hax and even if i did manage to kill it that swellow destroyed my team, but staraptor wasn't really that much of a big deal to me. So my strategy at the time was using intimidate gyarados and get at least 2 dragon dances of but that flinch screwed me up. And because gyarados only good stab move at the time was aquatail and those misses. I needed to reset so many times to not get a flinch and a miss.
