Randoms2 Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 "It's so hard!""I had to grind for ages to beat her!""Eruption Typhlosion punches holes in moons!"I went in with a Tyrantum and I left a giant crater where the red head was ._.It was my first time going against her and I feel cheated out of what I thought was the one of the communities most agreeably difficult challenge. Almost every other gym leader I had to spend a good 30-45 minutes figuring out how to beat it but this one... I never expected to beat her as easily as I beat Julia lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Chespin Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 I have two ground pokemons and a trick room reuniclus .. charlotte piece of cake xD That's the thing about Charlotte: If you have a Pokémon that knows trick room, you're pretty much home free.

Support Squad Felicity Posted June 19, 2015 Support Squad Share Posted June 19, 2015 Most peole pass up moms like Tyrantrum, ergo the difficulty. Fail to prepare, prepare to fail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randoms2 Posted June 19, 2015 Author Share Posted June 19, 2015 Most peole pass up moms like Tyrantrum, ergo the difficulty. Fail to prepare, prepare to fail. That's one thing I think about a lot, about preparing. At what point do you prepare too much and it turns into a case of 'you're taking advantage of cheap tactics' vs 'You aren't using tools available to you so it's your fault that you failed'. Lets say you're fighting Samson and you just can't win 'normally'. If you start using X-Whatever items to boost your stats and to cheese the fight, is it your bad that you're using tools at your disposal? Especially considering every difficult fight automatically has the odds stacked against you with carefully chosen moves and abilities to accent with a very specific field. Personally, I think that Ame has limited the game quite enough, and well enough, that just trudging through the game as you would any other canon pokemon game will result in reborn kicking you to the curb and leaving you to die in a ditch. On this topic, I think that there are very few and minute things that will 'break' the challenge of the game so to speak, one being soft resetting for a high IV speed boost blaziken, but otherwise I don't think you can cheese the game given what challenges are presented before you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twin Judge of Gemini Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Char's just a problem when you're in mono-run I finish mine with Walrein's Blizzard, alongside Rain Dance+Aqua Jet that murder everything else on her field Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 The game is as hard as you make it. All leaders can be swept with something or manipulated to own them if you really wish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaris Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Try her in ep.13. You'll have fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kithros Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 I think Charlotte got a lot easier with the change from energy ball to solar beam on the typhlosion (since typhlosion isn't legitimately able to learn energy ball) - solar beam is kind of a joke move when it's used outside of the sun and the AI just doesn't understand that.

leocain Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 In Reborn, the difficulty of any Gym Leader has to do with how you composed your team. Most of the itme it means you have to learn a new attack to take advantage of the field, or to get a couple new team members to have type advantages, so depending on what you carry at the time, any given Gym Leader may be a walk in the park or your worst nightmare.

foovy10 Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 if u beat her with just tyrantrum then she def got nerfed cus i needed to setup trick room and rain dance for tyrantrum to beat her.wow was that fun whooping her ass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masquerain Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 There WAS hype before the big nerf on her...and everything along the way TO her gym.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foamy Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Eruption Typhlosion DOES punch holes in moons. ...Mostly because moons don't have x4 resistance against Fire like Tyrantrum does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seehan Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Man you should have fought her pre nerf. Tyrantrum got shit on pretty hard even with 4x resist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YaBoyRulz Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Pre-Nerf she was a problem that's for sure I can't remember how I even beat her I want to say I changed the field to rainbow and finished it off with some mighty boom bursts from my Noivern I still remember my first time battling her, my thoughts (bring ground types) what happened = energy ball rape... I wasn't a happy camper haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega_Ra1der Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Rainbow field is one of the ways to beat her both pre-nerf and post-nerf although I fought her post-nerf but the strategy still works. Just make sure the rain activate the field rather the drought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kookies Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Well here is my first post, when I faced Charlotte for the first time (Ep.13?) Just so you understand how things were back then http://www.pokemonreborn.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=9837#entry187825 Now she is a piece of cake just wiped her out on my second run!
