rejuvenation The Terribly Titled Nuzlocke of Pokemon Rejuvenation: Part 3 Finale: Remember, I Wuv You (05/12/23)

[J-Awesome_One]

BANDIT KEITH!? What was he doing at Sheridan Village?!

So do you hate yourself, Sprite Sean or both?

Ummm... Why are you good at that Sean? What do you do with said women? o.O

God is only letting you speak when he deems it necessary.

Chakra? Psh. Everyone knows it's called cattra. (cat-tra)

I made the joke! Right here! Sooo... do I get the money or are you just gonna straight up kill me?

This is prob the most I've laughed during 1 of your chapters. That was a good read.

[Bluedude]

Man I feel bad for Aletia and Erin, that looked like it was a terrifying way to die. 

I’m guessing you’ll plot some way to get revenge on Spaceia and Tempia for that.

 

Living in the world of Pokemon would suck, especially if it’s a fan game. The world is in danger of ending every month and it’s only stopped by some kid.

 

 

 

[YinYang9705]

good on spacea on restoring your heracross back to you

I'm sure you'll repay her by being slightly less brutal to her then the other one

 

it was the laser needles in the original series because the budget back then was not ideal for a weekly anime of this calibur and the only thing they had to go off of was the gen1 attack animation

it stayed the laser needles because it was like that in the os so why bother changing it

 

I dont get how regigigas soundslikes a dying synthesizer when the other 3 where alot more put together

although regigigas sounding funny is the least of the hoopa movies problems

 

oh boy time bullshittery

I'm sure jan is perfectly capable as a writer and will make something intelligent and not hacky as shit

You only get black or grey here.

Gritty and Edgy just like the region itself.

Okay...then I'm sending my own good vibes your way to mock the lack of good ones you have yourself?

Expand  

Aww that's nice, you do care!

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

Well yeah but most superpowers aren't very useful unless you have a durability or speed increase that'd let you render bullets or maniac women with swords useless.

That thing was a fucking pain in the ass and Aelita is lucky that she wasn't in control or I might have removed her from the best girl list.

Expand  

You could be like Tony Stark or Bruce Wayne with the superpower of lots of money, to make yourself a suit immune to that nonsense.

God those Golems had Contrary and I think Rift Aelita has an ability where every time she takes damage, her attack goes up. V13 with those damn shields makes it worse. 

Your best girl list is pretty thin, I think nothing short of killing Rose would get you to remove her from it.

They slipped up by not having "Has to wear a Bowser costume every day" in his contract.

Sounds like dogshit to me. Like the two names don't really go together at all.

If I was a mad wacky adventure having scientist I'd call myself Sean Science and teach kids how to make meth.

Expand  

 

Should make an intern wear Princess Peach dress and make him chase them around to really get that immersion.

More fun than sticking the kids in the bag at least.

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

It's a quirk all main characters have. Melia and I are the main characters of the game so naturally we get super speshul nicknaming priviledges.

And I know it sounds nuts that I just admitted she's a main character but at this point denying it would be stupid.

I will try seduction as well. She can't be mad about my tyranny if I seduced her, right?

Expand  

 

Wow, events must have really beat you down to make you admit that.

She says she loves you like a brother and the sheer emotional damage makes you crumble, thus ending your reign before it even begins.

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

A y-year!? How many bills do you have!?

If I won 2-5 million that'd be it.

I wouldn't have to work another day for the MAN for rest of my life! Just buy a nice house, buy a nice wife, have 3-4 kids, murder the wife so I won't lose anything to divorce and live happily ever after!

Expand  

Gas, electricity, Water, stuff on the house, stuff on the car. All kinds of fun stuff.

Gotta make sure the nothing can connect you to the murder, hard to have happily ever after in a the slammer.

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

I was VERY happy when I found out that Reborn V19 has the Protect TM relatively early on. I made GOOD use of that, I can tell you now.

But I don't get nice things when I NEED them! I AM LEVEL 75 AND STORES STILL DON'T HAVE EVEN MAX POTIONS!

(It's 117 hours of gameplay time for me up until the end of V12 but probably thousands spent on this Nuzlocke)

Expand  

A free turn to plan can make all the difference. I gotta say that sounds surprisingly generous for Reborn, wouldn't expect a TM like that to like until like Post-game.

That sounds about right, I imagine the editing for some of the longer chapters can stretch into days.

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

eh good one.

Yeah they keep it running but they don't actually DO anything until way later in the game (although come the fuck on, Jan. I don't need their "Training" and I'm insulted by the very notion)

She intentionally didn't want her self-insert to do anything, I think? Something about it taking away from the player?

 

I see you've forgotten my joke about this during the backtracking filler arc. Which is understandable. it was a while ago.

All of my Nuzlockes are part of the TTCU. The Terribly-Titled Cinematic Universe.

As of now, Reborn, Rejuvenation are the only definitely canon entries. Snakewood is more of a What If? And Rising Ruby is...something?

I don't know. I don't actually watch any Marvel stuff to get this 100% accurate.

Expand  

 

The training thing, best I can think of is that Jan and Co were going into it thinking a lot people playing were going in after not playing the game for awhile and were rusty. Even then, I feel like there should be some kind of option to opt out. 

 

Ame not wanting her self-insert to do anything is fair, but I gotta take points off for the other characters stealing the spotlight. Radomus for a more infamous example.

 

Well apparently now there is a Marvel Multiverse, different dimensions and stuff so you're honestly more accurate than you think.

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

once named a Pokemon Silver team after the Teen Titans when I was nine but that's about it until Nuzlockes.

Very true. That was one of Reborns main selling points (aside from it's..."maturity" compared to other Pokemon games)

Rejuvenation's main selling point is probably the characters and the bonkers story. Like Reborn is good and all but I don't really LIKE as many of the characters. The Battles in both are decent enough though. Still my favourite Pokemon games even if they make me want to scream.

Expand  

 

Reborn's field effects, I feel like you'll never use even half of that stuff but I do like the options (when it's not being used against me at least).

I have many issues with Rejuv's story, but I can't deny I have fun with it. Half the fun is just seeing what they can do with little Pokemon Sprites.

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

Honestly with how degenerate a lot of Pokemon fans are, it's a refreshing surprise that these fangames don't have any porn. Especially Rejuvenation with it's platoons worth of "waifus".

Expand  

I reckon the characters not being in 3d helps. Most of the game is just sprites, and the official portraits only pop up every once in a blue moon.

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

There was something about Nagini being a sexy asian snake woman this whole time, right?

Making Neville a murderer, I guess.

Expand  

 

To be fair, it seems like Nagini seems to have been nothing more than vicious attack Python by the time of the books. More like a mercy killing on Neville's party really.

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

God that game will only be a clusterfuck. I guarantee it.

For instance: I heard that Pawmi (9th gen's Pika Clone) will have a move that lets it revive a fainted Pokemon.

If that is usable for Nuzlockes even only one time...jesus...

Expand  

 

That's potentially game breaking, I gotta imagine there's some kind of major drawback.

Could make it a once per battle sort of thing for Nuzlocke, maybe?

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

I hope so too.

I really hope for someone to make a new franchise that's actually good at some point but the odds of that are incredibly low in this day and age.

Expand  

 

Honestly I'd just prefer single standalone movies. Every other attempt to make a franchise in recent years outside of Marvel has met with disaster.

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

I can easily see that. Her hair already has that mussed up look so it wouldn't be any different.

Makes me jealous. When I wake up I look like Kramer from Seinfeld.

Probably yes. I'd say the character amount is worse though. Like are Alice and Allen REALLY necessary?

The based and redpilled options right there. I'm going to aim for the harem ending in the post-game. I think I can make it work. The only ones that will be spared will be Melia, Venam and Lavender. Melia & Venam's exclusion should be obvious and Lavender is excluded because I wouldn't do that to my boy, Huey.

Emotional Baggage: The Region. Maybe I should just find a nice NPC to settle down with instead...

The only one I know for sure is high in Rejuvenation is Melia due to that whole "I trust Sean with my life, he's the best" thing she tells Erin in the Blakeory Anatheum.

...

Don't know how I feel about that, tbh.

Expand  

 

Hard part for me in the morning, is taming this dang beard. 

Harem ending, shooting for the stars there aren't you? God luck keeping all those women from fighting each other and/or you.

In Reborn you probably should just find (or create) a nice NPC. 

You save her life time and time again, Melia had better trust you with her life. 

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

Yeah, like holy shit would controlling metal be a great power. Regular Telekinesis still has it beat due to versatility though.

It's what I assume Tops are called.

There you go. Enjoy that bad gay joke.

Expand  

True, getting hard countered by plastic would be pretty embarrassing.

Thanks, I'll put it with all the other bad jokes from this run.

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

I'd have to put a chapter up every three days and that would...probably BE possible but yes, I would have died.

It was a mistake in that I started Rejuvenation and enjoyed that a LOT more.

The editing in ORAS wasn't too bad but it was really boring to write for in comparison.

Hopefully after Part 3 I'll have a few Nuzlockes completed for uploading.

But then people will want Part 4 and the Reborn Reboot and these other runs will be left by the wayside once again.

Expand  

Here lies Sean (Insert Last name here), murdered by writing about fictional girls and creatured.

Rebooting Reborn, so would it be just another alt universe thing from the old run, or just flat starting over? 

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

I would too. The audience would lose their minds they'd seethe so hard.

Ash being a retard after Sinnoh being one of them. Along with being beaten in the finals by an even BIGGER retard who thought the Unova League was in Ecruteak City.

That always confused me. Like an earthquake happened and you can't EVER depict one in a cartoon? It's weird.

My main desire for Iris to win it all would be that I'd get SO many images of Haxorus I could use. The lesser desires is that's she's cute and I enjoyed her Champion Battle the most.

The fuck was Alain even doing there? He's not a champion, he just barely beat Ash in Kalos.

Expand  

 

They honestly couldn't seethe harder than the aftermath of the Kalos League. The salt was unbelievable, even compared to the Tobias battle.

Yeah Unova was where I stopped following regularly, didn't help that I literally started college the day after the last episode of Sinnoh aired.

Japan has really weird censorship laws is all I can say.

Iris put up a good fight, at least and you did get some great Haxorus images. Kinda sucks they brought her back only to lose twice.

The only thing I can think of for Alain is that the writers wanted to show how strong Leon is by him steamrolling a guy that Ash never beat.

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

It's probably the same game plan everyone else in this game has.

"Wait for Sean to defeat their Pokemon then SWOOP in to steal credit".

 

Expand  

 

Sounds about right for this game. 

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

Another goddess to chain to my throne. That's who she is.

Expand  

 

Another part of the harem I assume? How much you wanna bet she's blond?

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

True. That would antagonise me into describing what I'm going to do to them after this story ends in graphic detail which would probably get me sent back to the Stone Age.

And the waiting game begins.

Expand  

 

If they're anything like the greek gods, they might be into that sadly. 

Then the game unironically turns into Chrono Trigger.

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

Nahhh man. Final battle is going to be in the small observatory room above the Gearan City Docks entrance. I'll put money on that.

Are they? I thought it was abandoned for the HQ in the Badlands? Maybe they just use it for storage now because I can't see what other use it would have being so remote.

Oh good.

Expand  

God its been so long, I had to think about where that was at.

I'd still use it since its so remote. Not like anyone can really get to it, and much of the government is in Team Xen's pockets.

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

Settle? I don't "Settle".

I WILL be their king. Just imagine the power I would wield after becoming Champion? None of my Pokemon have to die anymore! I CAN SPAM ALL THE MAX REVIVES I WANT!

Jan will either be executed or turned into the court jester.

Who will then by executed in a hilarious manner.

Expand  

Say it with me now: UNLIMITED POWER!

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

Jan would definitely redeem himself in my eyes if he made us choose between the entire city of GDC or the characters he KNOWS we care about like Aelita, Ana and Mosely.

Like fuuuuuuck. Can you imagine if he did that and it stuck? I'd go so far as to call him "based".

Expand  

Good god, that would be quite a choice. I feel like it could potentially happen but I'm not confident enough to bet on it.

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

It was probably incorrect too. I imagine most anime girls are smooth as silk down there.

He gives as good as he gets.

Expand  

And how do you know that, might wanna delete your search history.

Caesar has clearly spent way too much time around you.

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

I guess the gym circuit helped with it a bit?
Plus there's loads of Fighting type trainers who want to train in the mountains and Sheridan's the most mountainous town there is.

Expand  

 

Mountains are like classic anime training grounds so it makes sense I guess. 

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

Anju is pretty decent, yes. It's a tie between her and Vivian for me with Nymiera taking second.

Hazuki is obviously last due to being tainted by Blakeory seed.

I wish the game would acknowledge that stuff more. Melia should be wary around her, Aelita should develop an aversion to Electric types after her torture, Amber should cheer when whales end up beached on the shore etc. etc.

Would make them feel more alive as characters I think.

Expand  

 

Who knows maybe Hazuki had the same idea as you and married Thomas to get to his money?

There's so much plot stuff happening that simple character stuff gets left by the wayside, there's not a whole lot of downtime for the characters other than you the PC when you're doing sidequests.

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

I'm telling you. It's the Bermuda Triangle of the Pokemon world.

(Weirdly enough, I read somewhere that Jan said it was close to Galar. And the nearest island to Britian is...oh god...)

Expand  

 

Aevium being Poke Ireland is hilarious to think about. Seems like this game was the perfect choice to nuzlocke for you, eh?

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

We just have those kinds of faces, I guess? Like Melia and Aelita, I get. They're pretty girls with upbeat personalities (most of the time) But me? Some sinister bespectacled fellow hanging around girls ten years younger than him? Not a chance anyone trusts me.

God I hope not.

Expand  

 

Maybe she thought you were their bodyguard? You're more grouchy than sinister most times that involve child napping and meglomania.

Just imagine Souta jokingly challenging you to battle for hitting on his woman.

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

One of the fuckers on the Nuzlocke Forums pointed out that I would be the Tuxedo Mask of the new generation and I can't help but agree that there are a LOT of parallels between us.

Yeah. They really fucking dropped the ball by telling us to leave and let "them sort this out".

Sprite Sean is also to blame for this since he KNOWS what happens to Anju yet does nothing to stop it.

Expand  

 

Honestly its not a bad comparison. The old anime kinda underated the guy, he apparently kicked ass in the manga. 

At this point the PC not saying anything to them about what happens kinda makes you look like a asshole. I get that doing that would probably throw the whole plot off the rails and make more work for the writers, but still. 

 

At least give Anju a hint to watch out or anything. 

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

Yyyyep.

Winter is both easier to upload due to the darkness and the room not getting overheated from the three lamps I have on for lighting.

Doesn't help that one of those lamps is nearly older than I am. It's like the one piece of furniture from our first house that survived all these years.

 

Expand  

 

A good lamp is like a family heirloom really. Who knows maybe its the key to some kind of ancient prophecy in your family?

 

 

Chapter 141 Comments:

  Reveal hidden contents

Meddlin' Melia ruins everything, which can sum up this whole arc in a nutshell. Like it wouldn't be so bad if Sprite Sean had provided the important context. I'm starting to think that you're the good side and the sprite just wants the so the world burn.

 

Heracross Poop Stink Bomb. . . are we sure Cella and Vivian are friends? I guess they had to get the time amulet out of Aelita's hands somehow. Carnage almost being erased from existence was pretty funny I gotta say. Love a good Back to the Future Reference.

 

Also I sure hope Melia wore gloves, though at least the game didn't make you pick it up which is a nice change of pace.

 

The whole self sacrifice spell, I'm sure something would have gone wrong, but I kinda wish their was a route where the PC had kept the info to himself and ended up agreeing to secretly help Vivian or something. 

 

Honestly you should be used to characters not actually stopping people from running way. Though if Vivian is anything like Aelita, she probably would have folded you with mystic martial art nonsense, so that's probably for the best.

 

  Quote

So maybe there's some other bitch pulling Kanon's strings? Someone we haven't met yet?

Hmmm.

 

 

Expand  

 

God I hope not, there's already enough antagonists as it is in this game. We don't need a 5th or 6th party involved.

 

I gotta admit that Vivian summoning Regirock scene was pretty cool to look at. Also those Regi sound effects never get old, poor Regiggas sounds like he needs a major software update.

 

On Galarian forms, Gamefreak has always been kinda bad with the distribution of these gimmicks, friendly reminder that non of the Kalos starters got Mega evos in XY, but freaking Charizard got 2. And no I don't count Ash-Greninja because that didn't even come out till the next generation.

 

  Quote

Expand  

 

I'm honestly surprised you Ren even has stars, I figured you would have ripped them off after him joining Xen.

 

Vivian just randomly shanking you is hilarious. Stabbing in the heart without a care for your feelings, women right?

 

That battle was pretty hairy at a few moments there. Rhyperior surviving that first Giga Drain was probably due to Solid Rock plus that Sandstorm Special defense buff. 

 

Also yeah you definitely gotta update that moveset for Zolt, I could have sworn it knew Discharge but I guess not.

 

I clenched when that Bruxish almost killed Caesar, be a hell of a bad time to lose a mon considering what comes next.

 

Dr. Zauis Mind Crushing Mega-Zam was probably the best part. I'd say keep Nasty Plot, his Special Defense is already pretty good, plus it's probably one of your best running gags to be honest. 

 

And now the timeline collapses. I gotta say what happened to Aelita looked pretty dire, I forgot she just straight up disentegrated. Maybe Thanos did something to her.

 

Also yep this is all Melia's fault, plus Cella and more than a little bit of In game Sean. I guess you could say its time to go . . . Back to the Future?

 

[VMeemes]

The poop thing is a bit funny, though the v13 version is at least slightly more sensible, i.e catching a heracross (which I think is shiny of course because Melia) and getting it to stomp all over Vivian's garden (and because of the update, after you deal with that time travel stuff you can change the future by cutting a cherry tree sapling. Changes route 2 to be less cherry blossom. Just a neat little thing.).

 

Still I wonder how this version of events go down, since it's a different update and all. It'll be interesting that's for sure. And take all the time you need! No need to force yourself.

[DerogatoryTrainer]

The future is dark and full of annoyances it seems.

So has anyone seen Gaunt lately?

Haven't seen him comment in a while and the hunting dogs keep coming back with nothing.

Anyway here's your monthly chapter for now.

Probably going to get back to the old weekly schedule in like September or something depending on how my schedule looks.

They needed somebody to represent Unova and nobody cares about Alder.

It does give me a headache when I try and figure out how the fuck all these kids were able to become Champions and not even a year has passed. Like damn. I can't imagine you'd lose much viewership with the kiddies if you aged Ash up to at least 15 years old.

Expand  

That reminds me that I have no idea what anime N's status is. Showing up for an event like this would be way out of character anyway tho.

Didn't iirc the Unova anime actually age Ash up to 11? I remember that being a thing. There have also been various mentions of months or years having passed in the anime so everyone is just canonically immortal.

 

Yeah I doubt he could randomly recruit many wild Pokemon from inside the stadium anyway.

I couldn't tell you. I stopped watching the anime when they stopped running it before school about fifteen years ago.

  Quote

Well you were wrong about Lance but sadly not about Iris.

Iris SHOULD have fucking won though. Just so I can get more action shots for Rose. They also missed an opportunity to use Gems since those were Gen 5's gimmick

I still can't wrap my head around why ALAIN of all fucking characters. Should have been Tobias.

And I bet rich rock boy's Metagross hasn't fought as many Pikachu's either.

Even then, Ash's team is extremely OP. He has ALL the gimmicks while his competitors only have one (and Iris, none)

Expand  

I guess trying to predict the anime was presumptious of me; I've stopped understanding what the heck they're doing ages ago.

For under-rep'd mons like Haxorus any big showing is a win, fan creators eat well with that.

I guess Alain showed up because he's a relatively recent character, Tobias is an anime-original character that last showed up more than 10 years ago. The anime's a bit of a continuity hell like that.

My girl came close. Cynthia had to rely on Mega-Evolution to win so Iris basically won that battle.

I think people would have appreciated Tobias more as an old joke that really send the fandom screeching but I guess Alain is a more recent and palpable version of him anwyay.

 

 

Ün Ün ÜN

*Indecipherable electronic screeching*

 

Rhyperior in fangames more often than not run Solid Rock+Assault Vest which always makes them weirdly bulky against things you'd expect them to die to. Also Sandstorm buffs SpDef for Rock types in case you forgot.

Makes sense. I think my grievances with them came from King in Reborn who didn't have an Assault Vest. 

Nor did I know Sandstorm buffs SpDefense. I don't think I've ever actually used Sandstorm strats before in all my years of Pokemon.

 

Ho, I'm pretty sure back when I played this there was an actual scene of Erin showing and then bein erased. Anyway, remember how this arc was supposed to be about Aelita? Who just got time paradox'd out of existence? Funny how these things go, huh?

This Nuzlocke is in Version 10 so things might have changed or been improved since I played it

Okay nearly everything was changed or improved since I played it. A fact that CONSTANTLY bothers me.

Oh yes. VERY FUNNY STUFF RIGHT HERE!

Living in the world of Pokemon would suck, especially if it’s a fan game. The world is in danger of ending every month and it’s only stopped by some kid.

 

Yep. It's a very existential fear.

 

I've said it before. They'll be chained to my throne in bikinis as I rule over the universe. A most fitting punishment, don't you agree?

 

Well...yeah it's dangerous but POOOOKEMON, man! I'd trade anything for it!

Plus the world ending is ALWAYS stopped by some kid so there's not THAT much to worry over.

A reasonable explanation and one that I shall accept. Thank you.

 

I dont get how regigigas soundslikes a dying synthesizer when the other 3 where alot more put together

although regigigas sounding funny is the least of the hoopa movies problems

The movie's script was probably just the words "Legendaries fighting each other" and nothing else.

 

oh boy time bullshittery

I'm sure jan is perfectly capable as a writer and will make something intelligent and not hacky as shit

Most time travel tales are hacky as shit, in my opinion.

But yes. I don't know if a fangame that's allegedly about Pokemon will be able to pull a good time tale off.

At least I'LL be there to make it better, right?

Well yeah but most superpowers aren't very useful unless you have a durability or speed increase that'd let you render bullets or maniac women with swords useless.

That thing was a fucking pain in the ass and Aelita is lucky that she wasn't in control or I might have removed her from the best girl list.

Expand  

You could be like Tony Stark or Bruce Wayne with the superpower of lots of money, to make yourself a suit immune to that nonsense.

God those Golems had Contrary and I think Rift Aelita has an ability where every time she takes damage, her attack goes up. V13 with those damn shields makes it worse. 

Your best girl list is pretty thin, I think nothing short of killing Rose would get you to remove her from it.

 

Problem is that they're also pretty SMART on top of rich. I'm clever at best so I don't think it'd be as easy for me.

I try not to remember that awful fight. Super glad I didn't use any stat decrease moves to get through it at least.

That's because I usually only mention the top three, the others don't come up as much.

It will never happen so I won't even consider what I'd do.

If I was a mad wacky adventure having scientist I'd call myself Sean Science and teach kids how to make meth.

Expand  

Should make an intern wear Princess Peach dress and make him chase them around to really get that immersion.

More fun than sticking the kids in the bag at least.

 

Sounds like that's asking for HR to get involved. Fun ruining bastards.

Maybe if I combine the two and stick them IN bags of meth?

It's a quirk all main characters have. Melia and I are the main characters of the game so naturally we get super speshul nicknaming priviledges.

I will try seduction as well. She can't be mad about my tyranny if I seduced her, right?

Wow, events must have really beat you down to make you admit that.

She says she loves you like a brother and the sheer emotional damage makes you crumble, thus ending your reign before it even begins.

 

It's been six years of this. What do you think?

Not possible.

Aelita wouldn't.

Shut up.

Gas, electricity, Water, stuff on the house, stuff on the car. All kinds of fun stuff.

Gotta make sure the nothing can connect you to the murder, hard to have happily ever after in a the slammer.

 

Well yeah but like 5 million over 40 years is 125,000 euro a year. Surely your bills couldn't be high enough to burn through THAT.

It's fine. I've got a method that'll work.

I was VERY happy when I found out that Reborn V19 has the Protect TM relatively early on. I made GOOD use of that, I can tell you now.

But I don't get nice things when I NEED them! I AM LEVEL 75 AND STORES STILL DON'T HAVE EVEN MAX POTIONS!

(It's 117 hours of gameplay time for me up until the end of V12 but probably thousands spent on this Nuzlocke)

Expand  

A free turn to plan can make all the difference. I gotta say that sounds surprisingly generous for Reborn, wouldn't expect a TM like that to like until like Post-game.

That sounds about right, I imagine the editing for some of the longer chapters can stretch into days.

 

Yeah. I made sure to teach it to Mako too.

I even make use of it out of battle when Solaris tries to cut off my head in Blacksteam.

Priority +6, motherfuckeeeer! YOUR OVERLEVELED SHARK IS POWERLESS AGAINST ME!

Definitely. I've improved too much so I can't churn them out like it was 2015 because my standards have gotten too high.

These last two months of slow updates was mostly due to work, lethargy and it being fucking hot most of the time.

Hopefully it'll get better soon.

eh good one.

Yeah they keep it running but they don't actually DO anything until way later in the game (although come the fuck on, Jan. I don't need their "Training" and I'm insulted by the very notion)

She intentionally didn't want her self-insert to do anything, I think? Something about it taking away from the player?

 

I see you've forgotten my joke about this during the backtracking filler arc. Which is understandable. it was a while ago.

All of my Nuzlockes are part of the TTCU. The Terribly-Titled Cinematic Universe.

As of now, Reborn, Rejuvenation are the only definitely canon entries. Snakewood is more of a What If? And Rising Ruby is...something?

I don't know. I don't actually watch any Marvel stuff to get this 100% accurate.

Expand   Expand  

 

The training thing, best I can think of is that Jan and Co were going into it thinking a lot people playing were going in after not playing the game for awhile and were rusty. Even then, I feel like there should be some kind of option to opt out. 

Ame not wanting her self-insert to do anything is fair, but I gotta take points off for the other characters stealing the spotlight. Radomus for a more infamous example.

Well apparently now there is a Marvel Multiverse, different dimensions and stuff so you're honestly more accurate than you think.

 

Psshhhhh...fucking amateurs if that's the case. I haven't played Rejuvenation in over two years and I'll still be in top-form when 13.5 finally drops! Yeah. I reject their offer to go to things that would ACTUALLY make me stronger like getting new Pokemon, Crests or Mega Stones. Not playing around with mono-type battles.

It's better there than here for that at least.

Uggghhh...just what we need. Infinite What If stories.

once named a Pokemon Silver team after the Teen Titans when I was nine but that's about it until Nuzlockes.

Very true. That was one of Reborns main selling points (aside from it's..."maturity" compared to other Pokemon games)

Rejuvenation's main selling point is probably the characters and the bonkers story. Like Reborn is good and all but I don't really LIKE as many of the characters. The Battles in both are decent enough though. Still my favourite Pokemon games even if they make me want to scream.

Expand  

 

Reborn's field effects, I feel like you'll never use even half of that stuff but I do like the options (when it's not being used against me at least).

I have many issues with Rejuv's story, but I can't deny I have fun with it. Half the fun is just seeing what they can do with little Pokemon Sprites.

 

Very true. I make it a point to check fields more often after all the suffering they've put me through.

It's a wild ride to be sure.

 

  On 7/22/2022 at 5:01 AM, DerogatoryTrainer said:

Honestly with how degenerate a lot of Pokemon fans are, it's a refreshing surprise that these fangames don't have any porn. Especially Rejuvenation with it's platoons worth of "waifus".

Expand  

I reckon the characters not being in 3d helps. Most of the game is just sprites, and the official portraits only pop up every once in a blue moon.

 

Well the same was true for the older Pokemon games and look how much smut those have now. Do the official portraits appear in later version then? I assume so since most weren't drawn back here in Version 10.

There was something about Nagini being a sexy asian snake woman this whole time, right?

Making Neville a murderer, I guess.

To be fair, it seems like Nagini seems to have been nothing more than vicious attack Python by the time of the books. More like a mercy killing on Neville's party really.

 

What a weird and unnecessary addition to her character.

God that game will only be a clusterfuck. I guarantee it.

For instance: I heard that Pawmi (9th gen's Pika Clone) will have a move that lets it revive a fainted Pokemon.

If that is usable for Nuzlockes even only one time...jesus...

Expand  

That's potentially game breaking, I gotta imagine there's some kind of major drawback.

Could make it a once per battle sort of thing for Nuzlocke, maybe?

 

It's only got 1PP is the drawback.

Seems they're adding a lot of unique type of tricks this gen what with Cyclizard's Substitute U-Turn move.

Or sacrifice Pawni's life for another Pokemon. I think it gets an evo so we'll see what happens.

I hope so too.

I really hope for someone to make a new franchise that's actually good at some point but the odds of that are incredibly low in this day and age.

Expand  

Honestly I'd just prefer single standalone movies. Every other attempt to make a franchise in recent years outside of Marvel has met with disaster.

 

It's because they pander to audiences and politics lot more now, I think. And both are fucking stupid.

Just write and tell the damn story and hang whatever some redditor-tier reviewer has to say about it.

I can easily see that. Her hair already has that mussed up look so it wouldn't be any different.

Makes me jealous. When I wake up I look like Kramer from Seinfeld.

Probably yes. I'd say the character amount is worse though. Like are Alice and Allen REALLY necessary?

The based and redpilled options right there. I'm going to aim for the harem ending in the post-game. I think I can make it work. The only ones that will be spared will be Melia, Venam and Lavender. Melia & Venam's exclusion should be obvious and Lavender is excluded because I wouldn't do that to my boy, Huey.

Emotional Baggage: The Region. Maybe I should just find a nice NPC to settle down with instead...

The only one I know for sure is high in Rejuvenation is Melia due to that whole "I trust Sean with my life, he's the best" thing she tells Erin in the Blakeory Anatheum.

...

Don't know how I feel about that, tbh.

Expand   Expand  

 

Hard part for me in the morning, is taming this dang beard. 

Harem ending, shooting for the stars there aren't you? God luck keeping all those women from fighting each other and/or you.

In Reborn you probably should just find (or create) a nice NPC. 

You save her life time and time again, Melia had better trust you with her life. 

 

I contemplated growing one once. Only to find out it's ginger and not my actual hair colour.

So I guess I'll just have to wait until I'm old enough to go grey.

Of course. Why settle for less or have to actually choose? I think it'll work out fine. Most of the top-tier girls don't seem like the jealous type and if they are...Well this is Pokemon. I just have to find our what type Jealousy is weak to!

That...isn't a bad idea, actually. Maybe if I ever track down Potion Lady who saved my run...

Yeah she does. But it's WEIRD to be appreciated for it.

The editing in ORAS wasn't too bad but it was really boring to write for in comparison.

Hopefully after Part 3 I'll have a few Nuzlockes completed for uploading.

But then people will want Part 4 and the Reborn Reboot and these other runs will be left by the wayside once again.

Here lies Sean (Insert Last name here), murdered by writing about fictional girls and creatures.

Rebooting Reborn, so would it be just another alt universe thing from the old run, or just flat starting over? 

 

As I deserved.

I'm thinking it'll just be a complete rewind but slightly off due to the V19 changes.

Like the evil Celebi or whatever the fuck was going on in the Alphabetlocke sends me back to the train about to pull into the city. But I won't be passive about my foreknowledge. (which lasts up until Amentrine Mountain)

I think it could be fun to go back and give my Pokemon a bit more life to them.

Oh good.

Expand  

God its been so long, I had to think about where that was at.

I'd still use it since its so remote. Not like anyone can really get to it, and much of the government is in Team Xen's pockets.

 

I hide there for a brief period in Part 5 due to so much being changed around the entire world.

All the more reason for me to build and then take the throne from those corrupt fools.

I'm going to install psychic screening for all government employees so corruption will be a thing of the past.

Who will then by executed in a hilarious manner.

Good god, that would be quite a choice. I feel like it could potentially happen but I'm not confident enough to bet on it.

Anju is pretty decent, yes. It's a tie between her and Vivian for me with Nymiera taking second.

Hazuki is obviously last due to being tainted by Blakeory seed.

I wish the game would acknowledge that stuff more. Melia should be wary around her, Aelita should develop an aversion to Electric types after her torture, Amber should cheer when whales end up beached on the shore etc. etc.

Would make them feel more alive as characters I think.

Expand  

Who knows maybe Hazuki had the same idea as you and married Thomas to get to his money?

There's so much plot stuff happening that simple character stuff gets left by the wayside, there's not a whole lot of downtime for the characters other than you the PC when you're doing sidequests.

 

She was ALREADY rich though! And it doesn't seem like something her younger self would consider being the easy mark that she was.

I think there is in later versions? Like we learn more about Valarie in Aquamarine Cave and whatnot.

Sadly, I missed all that so to me she's just "That woman from Blacksteeple who gave me a decent battle"

Aevium being Poke Ireland is hilarious to think about. Seems like this game was the perfect choice to nuzlocke for you, eh?

It's definitely not though.

As you'll see in Chapter 147, Jan hates the Irish.

God I hope not.

Expand  

Maybe she thought you were their bodyguard? You're more grouchy than sinister most times that involve child napping and meglomania.

Just imagine Souta jokingly challenging you to battle for hitting on his woman.

Yeah I can see that. Especially with Melia.

Yeah. They really fucking dropped the ball by telling us to leave and let "them sort this out".

Sprite Sean is also to blame for this since he KNOWS what happens to Anju yet does nothing to stop it.

Expand  

 

Honestly its not a bad comparison. The old anime kinda underated the guy, he apparently kicked ass in the manga. 

At this point the PC not saying anything to them about what happens kinda makes you look like a asshole. I get that doing that would probably throw the whole plot off the rails and make more work for the writers, but still. 

 

At least give Anju a hint to watch out or anything. 

I never digested any Sailor Moon media besides the English opening and Dub compilations on Youtube so I don't know what the story is.

Well it's not entirely my fault, is it?

I DO warn Angie but we know what these Aevians are like when it comes to heeding my warnings.

A good lamp is like a family heirloom really. Who knows maybe its the key to some kind of ancient prophecy in your family?

Meddlin' Melia ruins everything, which can sum up this whole arc in a nutshell. Like it wouldn't be so bad if Sprite Sean had provided the important context. I'm starting to think that you're the good side and the sprite just wants the so the world burn.

As depicted in the new titlecard "Nice fucking job, Melia"

That'd be a twist of the century. Human Sean is the moral compass to Sprite Sean's sociopathy.

Maybe it's because he doesn't get all the Rose interaction I do?

 

Heracross Poop Stink Bomb. . . are we sure Cella and Vivian are friends? I guess they had to get the time amulet out of Aelita's hands somehow. Carnage almost being erased from existence was pretty funny I gotta say. Love a good Back to the Future Reference.

Yeah, stink bombs are a little much, even between friends.

Glad you liked it! It took a lot of work.

 

Also I sure hope Melia wore gloves, though at least the game didn't make you pick it up which is a nice change of pace.

Gloves were provided.

But Cella weirdly made it sound like the gloves were part of the attempt to convince us.

Like if we immediately said yes and asked no further questions, she wouldn't have given them to us.

 

The whole self sacrifice spell, I'm sure something would have gone wrong, but I kinda wish their was a route where the PC had kept the info to himself and ended up agreeing to secretly help Vivian or something. 

But then we wouldn't have this oh so fun bad future arc!

There's time travel in this story, Dex! Can't have a time-travel story WITHOUT the bad future plot point!

 

Honestly you should be used to characters not actually stopping people from running way. Though if Vivian is anything like Aelita, she probably would have folded you with mystic martial art nonsense, so that's probably for the best.

Ah but I know a martial artists greatest weakness!

Being a lot bigger and heavier than them!

They'd be powerless against my "bear hug and then fall on them" technique! Or the classic "Wrap around and lie down on the floor" manuveur!

So maybe there's some other bitch pulling Kanon's strings? Someone we haven't met yet?

Hmmm.

 

Expand   Expand  

God I hope not, there's already enough antagonists as it is in this game. We don't need a 5th or 6th party involved.

Christ is the number even higher than that though?

We've got Team Xen, Team Anti-Assist, Bladestar, The Androids assholes Clear and Kieran, V, the woman after Ana, whoever is behind Amaria-Black, Indriad, Timpea&Spacea, Timpeas&Spacea's boss, The specific cause behind Storm 9, the PuppetMaster, the Inkay that think they're aliens, Karen and probably even more.

I genuinely don't think we'd notice if someone new was manipulating Kanon.

 

I gotta admit that Vivian summoning Regirock scene was pretty cool to look at. Also those Regi sound effects never get old, poor Regiggas sounds like he needs a major software update.

Much more cinematic than Anju's at least. Hope Regigigas' intro is even more impressive.

I think they're important in the new anime for that Goh guy's quest so I hope they keep the noises in.

 

On Galarian forms, Gamefreak has always been kinda bad with the distribution of these gimmicks, friendly reminder that non of the Kalos starters got Mega evos in XY, but freaking Charizard got 2. And no I don't count Ash-Greninja because that didn't even come out till the next generation.

Enter Terastyling. The new stupid gimmick that'll be gone next gen!

You know Tauros of all Pokemon is getting 3 regional forms this gen? Now I love me some Tauros but that seems both excessive AND lazy.

Make NEW cow Pokemon already!

I'm honestly surprised you Ren even has stars, I figured you would have ripped them off after him joining Xen.

You can't lose stars unfortunately. The bad doesn't outweigh the good.

 

Vivian just randomly shanking you is hilarious. Stabbing in the heart without a care for your feelings, women right?

They usually stab you through the back when doing it.

But of course, being a woooooooman, Vivian can't even get that right.

 

That battle was pretty hairy at a few moments there. Rhyperior surviving that first Giga Drain was probably due to Solid Rock plus that Sandstorm Special defense buff. 

Yep. Never knew about Sandstorm doing that until now.

Guess that means Arenite Wall is a lot more useful than I though.

 

Also yeah you definitely gotta update that moveset for Zolt, I could have sworn it knew Discharge but I guess not.

He MIGHT have, honestly. All this was played in 2018 and I don't have any pictures of their movesets for this part of the game so I just went with the joke of him not knowing it. Because I can't figure out why 2018 Sean would have used fucking Electro Ball there.

 

I clenched when that Bruxish almost killed Caesar, be a hell of a bad time to lose a mon considering what comes next.

I certainly wouldn't be as upbeat as I am this chapter.

Or any of the chapters afterward. Probably would have just stolen Kenneth's boat and murdered my way to Blacksteeple in a haze of red.

 

Dr. Zauis Mind Crushing Mega-Zam was probably the best part. I'd say keep Nasty Plot, his Special Defense is already pretty good, plus it's probably one of your best running gags to be honest. 

I plan on it. We needed more move specific gags in this show and that's a pretty good one.

Need to find more moves that'd work for them too.

I think Abomination learns something called Solar Flare so I could probably turn that into a DBZ joke easily enough.

 

Also yep this is all Melia's fault, plus Cella and more than a little bit of In game Sean. I guess you could say its time to go . . . Back to the Future?

I blame Indriad myself. It's HIS fault it's all happening, right?

The poop thing is a bit funny, though the v13 version is at least slightly more sensible, i.e catching a heracross (which I think is shiny of course because Melia) and getting it to stomp all over Vivian's garden (and because of the update, after you deal with that time travel stuff you can change the future by cutting a cherry tree sapling. Changes route 2 to be less cherry blossom. Just a neat little thing.).

 

Still I wonder how this version of events go down, since it's a different update and all. It'll be interesting that's for sure. And take all the time you need! No need to force yourself.

A BIT funny, he says. Such high praise.

I mean...it's not really much better? Why did we need to catch a Heracross when we could have used any of our own Pokemon? Hell we could even use the Heracross I actually OWN.

I saw that. Had fun chopping and replanting that thing over and over.

I remember when this arc first came out. I’m pretty sure people were divided in between it being good or bad, but at the end you do get some answers as to what Melias’ power is and what you are. You also get way more questions but that’s par for the course. 
 

As far as apocalypses go this one doesn’t look that good to live in, little food, most animals are dead, all the water is acidic, and all the land is getting washed away. 
 

If I had to live in an apocalypse I’d choose Fallouts’. At least in that universe there are multiple societies rebuilding the World. 
 

I’m with Teslas’ husband being crazy for leaving her, I mean have you seen her artwork? How does that woman not have men constantly trying to date her! 

[J-Awesome_One]

And damn right. They're better than yours.~

I think Melia is making you like her as a friend.

Hmmm... You're like her brother. No 1 can hurt her but you. So nice Sean!

It honestly does look wine colored so you're not really wrong with the color there.

I really wonder how Madame X ran away when there is nothing to run too other then a giant red sea can she fly with that cape or can she run on water? Maybe she is a submarine?

Also seeing as how Mosely was able to snatch away Madame X sword in v13 easily yeah I would say little girls are her weakness

The evengallion poster with Sean and Meli is a pretty cool edit

Man this arc really just makes Melia such a pushover even compared to the rest of the game although she isn't that much of a pushover in v13

Hell, I'm not even sure how the fuck you're even a living thing!

Honestly good question

I really wonder if Melia or any of the other character in this game will ever pay off their debt for you or will always just be glorified cheer leaders for the rest of the game.

Man your monologue of telling Melia to not throw away her life would have been so heroic if you cut out the last part

is it because janforgot about her for nearly the entirety of grand dream up until this point

damn it jan

 

melia reacts shockingly poorly to threats to her life by people she can use her pokemon against

sure they're kids but self defense is self defense

 

damn it melia stop having a hero complex about shit its the least helpful thing in the world

I try not to remember that awful fight. Super glad I didn't use any stat decrease moves to get through it at least.

That's because I usually only mention the top three, the others don't come up as much.

It will never happen so I won't even consider what I'd do.

Definitely. I've improved too much so I can't churn them out like it was 2015 because my standards have gotten too high.

These last two months of slow updates was mostly due to work, lethargy and it being fucking hot most of the time.

Hopefully it'll get better soon.

Expand  

 

Still dumb of the MC to have his back to the enemy team leader at all. Imagine a world where Solaris had actually suceeded, Reborn would be doomed.

Yeah, reading your early Reborn stuff and the current Rejuvenation run, it's like night and day difference. Still same level of humor though. For better or worse.

Psshhhhh...fucking amateurs if that's the case. I haven't played Rejuvenation in over two years and I'll still be in top-form when 13.5 finally drops! Yeah. I reject their offer to go to things that would ACTUALLY make me stronger like getting new Pokemon, Crests or Mega Stones. Not playing around with mono-type battles.

It's better there than here for that at least.

Uggghhh...just what we need. Infinite What If stories.

Expand  

 

It's the fighting at a disadvantage "training" that gets me. Like that isn't half the battles in this game with the field effects heavily weighted towards the otherside. 

Shoot two of the last three marvel movies have involved the multiverse in a major way. The next set of Avengers movie is gonna feature it heavily apparently. So you'd best believe in the Multiverse, because you're in one!

Well the same was true for the older Pokemon games and look how much smut those have now. Do the official portraits appear in later version then? I assume so since most weren't drawn back here in Version 10.

I honestly attribute that to them being more played. I imagine on a relatively tiny fraction of people who've played to official games have touched anytype of fangame, let along something like Rejuvenation.

I think it could be fun to go back and give my Pokemon a bit more life to them.

Expand  

 

This is the path you chose.

To be honest I completely forgot what exactly was going on in the Alphabetlocke so I'm gonna take your word for it about the Celebi. Messing with Team Meteor with future knowledge should be funny at least.

Its not TOO complicated. Ancient kingdom on the moon destroyed, royal family and their guards reincarnated as teenagers and they fight a stupid variety of demons, androids, and what is essentially Galactus in a shiny sailor uniform. I liked it as kid at least.

Melia ruins everything, yep that about sums it up.

And all you've got is your motly group of teenagers, Damien and April, plus the Storm Chasers for whaterver they're worth. Good thing non of these baddies are really working together, or you might be in real trouble.

I plan on it. We needed more move specific gags in this show and that's a pretty good one.

I think Abomination learns something called Solar Flare so I could probably turn that into a DBZ joke easily enough.

Expand  

 

How about Rose getting irationally angry at everything when she uses Outrage, though you've probably used that one already?

Solar Flare is a good one, if you have anything that learns moonblast that could be a easy Kamehameha/Spirit Bomb joke.

Comments for Chapter 142:

 

  Reveal hidden contents

The title card sums up how I feel about this whole debacle. Savior complex is a bitch isn't it Melia?

 

Oh and it just gets better with everyone's favorite sword wielding, leather clad tyrant. Denied vengeance, Sean must team up with his most hated foe. 

. . . Okay team up is a strong word, you barely interact with her for most of this arc to be honest. Sure you're not complaining though.

 

Least you get to maul a pack of kindergarteners to make you feel better. Hell you could have thrown out anyone of your mons and got them to back off too. This is funnier tho.

 

Alt timeline Mosley is like the only thing that keeps this section of the game from being completely grim and serious. I'm extremely thankful to the little gremlin for that.

 

Kenneth roundhouse kicking Melia made me laugh I gotta admit. She actually gets beat up more in other parts of V13 if you can believe it. Gonna have to teach that girl some CQC.

 

There's few Pokemon battles here so punching it out works for me!

The whole environment looks grim, kinda like the design. I imagine when they say 5 islands, I'd like to think thats just whats left of the Aevium Region. I imagine the rest of the world is about the same.

 

Only 91 species of mons left, man Gamefreak cut the Pokedex pretty fine this region. Man imagine if you had to do this entire arc with just the six Pokemon you had on hand to fight Vivian. Be a hell of a hard mode challenge at least.

I'm surprised you didn't suggest putting Melia in a sleeper hold at the end there. Unconciousness counts as sleep right? Surely the next day won't be as bad as the first, right. . . right?

 

Okay finally got this done, haven't had time to actually sit down and type this before now. 

[Hakimblue99]

I never drank nor will ever drink wine, so I'm not sure about the water. It's definitely red, though. So red that James the Red Number 5 would be jealous.

 

I "love" what happened is completely different than those Time and Space losers foreshadowed. They implied that saving one would kill a lot of other humans, not send the world into apocalypse age! Also, I found it interesting that we never see Vivian in this apocalypse timeline. Almost like she dies in the end...

 

So basically, the question those twin arseholes should be saying, "Would you sacrifice one peson to save the world, or save one person so she would die along with the rest of the world?" 

 

It's a stupid question is what I'm saying.

 

God, I would have taken that Heracross over Madame X. Thanks a lot, Rejuvenation.

 

Good to see you defending yourselves quite easily. I just "love" the fact that apparently the player decides to surrender to a bunch of toddlers depsite having literal murder machines in his pocket. Especially since most Pokemon in this timeline are dead, and there's no gimmicks for the enemies to pull out of their rear. No Megas, No Z-Moves, No Dyna/GigaMax, No Terastallize, nothing! Heck, Rose can probably defeat them all with a sneeze if she wants to.

 

Say, what do you think of Terastallize? I give credit to GameFreak, it's not as braindead as Dyna/GigaMax. Megas are still better though. Crystalizing sounds cool...if you know, it doesn't make the Pokemon look weird and hideous. Although I do feel concern about the balance of the game. Imagine a Dragon with a Steel Tera Type....then again, that's the same problem Megas had, and I love Megas.

 

Megas are still cooler, though.

 

Love makes the body grow strong, obviously. 

 

Huh. Actually, considering the Spin Off Episode, love does has something to do with why he is a walking skeleton...

 

...

...

...Am I an idiot for actually, legiitmitely, honestly believed what that fish said, before Zolt pointed out the facts?

 

Sheesh, Melia is very bad at being genre-savvy. And recognizing the obvious. And not acting susipicious.

 

Typical Melia. 

 

See, look on the bright side! This apocalypse also probably(and hopefully) killed a bunch of idiots/arseholes like politicians, politically obsessed morons, SJWs/Wokes, and people who unironically believe Thomas the Tank Engine is authoritative bullcrap.

 

In 2022.

 

Yes, I meet another person like that some time ago. I wouldn't be surprised if this "person" genuinely think sHenry the Green Number 3 is locked for eternity in  that tunnel.

 

No seriously, how do people genuinely believe that?

 

HAHAHA. I laughed just like you ordered me to. Did I do it right?

 

That's it. That's my whole problem with v10. Vivian doesn't really have to sacrifice herself. Just kick Indriad's butt and boom, world saved. What he's going to do, fight you off with just a Gardevoir?

 

But of course the player character doesn't share or talk about Indriad to other people. Why would he do something that is common sense? He's the only one right now who knows about Indriad and Maria's fiasco! People talk crap about Pokemon Insurgence for their cults, yet those 5(actually 4) cults in that game are pansies compared to Indriad's whole deal! 

 

But if Vivian doesn't sacrifice herself, Aelita wouldn't exist. Heh, Ironic. For Aelita to live, Melia must let Vivian die.

 

Sort of. It's a bit more complicated...oh who am I kidding? What happens is so freaking bizarre, I doubt anyone could have predicted that from the beginning. And it somehow gets even MORE bizarre!

 

...I can't belive it took me this long to realize that Kenneth and Tesla got married in thsi timeline. For some reason my brain didn't process that step-daughter line...

 

I clearly ate too much Durants...by accident of course.

 

Okay, is throwing oils on girls a reference to something? Because I genuinely curious. 

 

I agree, that's really smart of Kenneth. An Aeviumite using their brain. A very rare phenomenon,  even rarer than catching a shiny in mainline games. So bravo, Ke-wait, he's from Kanto...I take it back. Aeviumites are brainless. As expected.

 

Urgh. I hate working with the evil guys. Even as a kid, I dislike this trope and found it really boring. I know there's the whole 'temporary alliance' and 'common problem that only both of them could solve together' stuff, but if I'm a hero, I hate having to lower myself to work with guys who were constantly trying to kill the heroes. And it's amazing how I rarely, if at all, see the bad guys try to backstab the guys and betray the heroes. Because, you know, bad guys. 

 

I know you only want to rule for your own lust, but you'd genuinely be the best ruler for this world, mainly because you're literally the strongest and smartest people in that timeline right now. And you probably won't kill people willy nilly, and instead have more valid reasons to do so. 

 

Like people who yells "This desert character is too white!" about an ASIAN, WAIFU, GACHA game  yet act deaf when white/Japanese characters are turned black.

 

Friggin hypocrites. It's just like you said, there's no such thing as true equality.

Say, what do you think of Terastallize? I give credit to GameFreak, it's not as braindead as Dyna/GigaMax. Megas are still better though. Crystalizing sounds cool...if you know, it doesn't make the Pokemon look weird and hideous. Although I do feel concern about the balance of the game. Imagine a Dragon with a Steel Tera Type....then again, that's the same problem Megas had, and I love Megas.

Expand  

 

It's a gimmick that'll be forgotten by the next game so it's whatever. And while it is a bit cool, it's much less cool once you realize that you basically trade weakness out for another. So if you crystalize into a fire type, good on you for no longer being a grass type. Just instead now have all the weaknesses of a fire type pokemon. And from what I see of it, it's not like a second/third temporary type either. It just overrides the others.

 

Helpful in a pinch, but single types tend to have a decent chunk of weaknesses depending on which one it is.

I remember when this arc first came out. I’m pretty sure people were divided in between it being good or bad, but at the end you do get some answers as to what Melias’ power is and what you are. You also get way more questions but that’s par for the course. 
 

Expand  

It's...dramatic at least? And that makes for some good content.

I don't think the player gets much information that I haven't already figured out. We had that weird dream with someone whispering in my ear about how I was the "Interceptor" and "whose body will I inhabit next?"

Hell Melia's doesn't get much explanation until much later either.

Ah yes, the classic Rejuvenation method.

As far as apocalypses go this one doesn’t look that good to live in, little food, most animals are dead, all the water is acidic, and all the land is getting washed away.

Yeah they're pretty much circling the drain at this point. And would likely all be dead if this "Princess" didn't have her big botanical garden boat going around.

If I had to live in an apocalypse I’d choose Fallouts’. At least in that universe there are multiple societies rebuilding the World.

I dunno...it may have societies but they aren't exactly great.

Plus a lot of that place is tracts and tracts of hyper-murderous wildlife like Deathclaws and Cazadores.

And that's not forgetting the actual fucking aliens going around.

No, for me I'd pick an easy one to live in like the Walking Dead. The only reason that the characters from that struggle is because it's a Tv show and they're written to be retards.

Especially since I'd still be here on a relatively small island with a population of 5 million.

I see you are a man of culture just like me.

Maybe they're all too intimidated by her? If so I shall gladly give myself up and give her 3 more children while she can still have them!

It honestly does look wine colored so you're not really wrong with the color there.

Impossible. Nothing can be better than something I own because I am the one who owns it.

My working theory is that she's some sort of Inspector Gadget woman and can pull a jetski out of her arse.

She just ran away because she didn't want us to hear her shriek "GO GO GADGET JETSKI" because that'd ruin her dark edgy vibe.

Having a god fragment inside you does wonders for your self-confidence, you know.

Definitely. I've improved too much so I can't churn them out like it was 2015 because my standards have gotten too high.

These last two months of slow updates was mostly due to work, lethargy and it being fucking hot most of the time.

Hopefully it'll get better soon.

Still dumb of the MC to have his back to the enemy team leader at all. Imagine a world where Solaris had actually suceeded, Reborn would be doomed.

Yeah, reading your early Reborn stuff and the current Rejuvenation run, it's like night and day difference. Still same level of humor though. For better or worse.

 

There's always Fern to the rescue, right?

Dear god what a fucking blow.

The same level of humor? After 6 years?! And here I thought I'd matured...

Psshhhhh...fucking amateurs if that's the case. I haven't played Rejuvenation in over two years and I'll still be in top-form when 13.5 finally drops! Yeah. I reject their offer to go to things that would ACTUALLY make me stronger like getting new Pokemon, Crests or Mega Stones. Not playing around with mono-type battles.

It's better there than here for that at least.

Uggghhh...just what we need. Infinite What If stories.

Expand  

 

It's the fighting at a disadvantage "training" that gets me. Like that isn't half the battles in this game with the field effects heavily weighted towards the otherside. 

Shoot two of the last three marvel movies have involved the multiverse in a major way. The next set of Avengers movie is gonna feature it heavily apparently. So you'd best believe in the Multiverse, because you're in one!

 

It's probably good experience for the others but I've been fighting at a disadvantage since day one since I'm STILL not allowed to have Full Restores or any of the GOOD hold items like Assault Vest.

...

Well maybe not Day ONE. Early game Dragon Rage was pretty OP.

Nooooooooooo...I don't want tooooooo...

I also didn't know there were any Avengers even left.

Well the same was true for the older Pokemon games and look how much smut those have now. Do the official portraits appear in later version then? I assume so since most weren't drawn back here in Version 10.

Expand  

 

I honestly attribute that to them being more played. I imagine on a relatively tiny fraction of people who've played to official games have touched anytype of fangame, let along something like Rejuvenation. 

Also yeah the portraits only appear in V13.

 

Sound reasoning there. I myself would have thought there'd be some because most niche places on the internet are horrifying dens of sin. Glad to be wrong here.

Of course. Why settle for less or have to actually choose? I think it'll work out fine. Most of the top-tier girls don't seem like the jealous type and if they are...Well this is Pokemon. I just have to find our what type Jealousy is weak to!

That...isn't a bad idea, actually. Maybe if I ever track down Potion Lady who saved my run...

Yeah she does. But it's WEIRD to be appreciated for it.

Just take the appreciation, man. Be awhile before you get more of it.

 

Well of course I would. Coal's good for heating the house in winter! I ain't wasting it on a bunch of toerags!

And I am SELFLESSLY offering my body to multiple women! I've got this in the baaaaaggg...

I'm thinking it'll just be a complete rewind but slightly off due to the V19 changes.

I think it could be fun to go back and give my Pokemon a bit more life to them.

Expand  

 

This is the path you chose.

To be honest I completely forgot what exactly was going on in the Alphabetlocke so I'm gonna take your word for it about the Celebi. Messing with Team Meteor with future knowledge should be funny at least.

I'm genuinely interested in seeing Reborn with your improved Nuzlocking(?) in 2030 or so.

 

I regret it already.

Cool. I'm doing the same and taking my word for it too. Because I also have completely forgot what was going on in that Nuzlocke.

Freeze them in carbonite and use them as decoration like in Star Wars, or even worse make them clean up your mansion/home/evil lair as eternal punishment.

I'd only bet on white because of you know Arceus, but its long odds there.

Probably not hard to be when I'm 99% sure she was a complete virgin up until she met him.

Oh no need to be concerned. I was just going to play "If Pokemon were real, what would your team be based on a 20 mile radius from your home" kind of thing. I'm just waiting for Scarlet and Violet to come out because Fidough is perfect Pokemon for the upbringing I had.

That'd be a twist of the century. Human Sean is the moral compass to Sprite Sean's sociopathy.

Maybe it's because he doesn't get all the Rose interaction I do?

Expand  

Melia ruins everything, yep that about sums it up.

Would make sense considering Rose tends to keep you from going TOO far off the deep end at times. A Sean without Rose is probably about as bad as you joke to be.

 

And she doesn't even mean to do it which is worse.

I'd say it's more Caesar's job than Rose's. Rose keeps me centered but she's too agreeable with whatever I decide to do.

We've got Team Xen, Team Anti-Assist, Bladestar, The Androids assholes Clear and Kieran, V, the woman after Ana, whoever is behind Amaria-Black, Indriad, Timpea&Spacea, Timpeas&Spacea's boss, The specific cause behind Storm 9, the PuppetMaster, the Inkay that think they're aliens, Karen and probably even more.

I genuinely don't think we'd notice if someone new was manipulating Kanon.

And all you've got is your motly group of teenagers, Damien and April, plus the Storm Chasers for whaterver they're worth. Good thing non of these baddies are really working together, or you might be in real trouble. 

Though for Indriad, I'm betting money of him being the "father" that Madame X talks about if you beat her. So that one connection at least.

 

We're more than fine with just the first group. This game is VERY anime after all. And what's more powerful in anime than a motley group of teenagers?

Who is Indriad NOT the father of at this point?

How about Rose getting irrationally angry at everything when she uses Outrage, though you've probably used that one already?

Solar Flare is a good one, if you have anything that learns moonblast that could be a easy Kamehameha/Spirit Bomb joke.

 

Nah I don't think I'll do the Outrage one. If anything I'm the one who saps all the actual outrage from the move.

Hmmm...I don't think I do yet. Don't have very many fairy types but I suppose Nancy's Sylveon would work.

The title card sums up how I feel about this whole debacle. Savior complex is a bitch isn't it Melia?

Timpea and Spacea have Savior Complex beaten in the bitch department.

THEY'RE THE ONES WHO TAUNTED HER INTO DOING THIS SHIT!

 

Oh and it just gets better with everyone's favorite sword wielding, leather clad tyrant. Denied vengeance, Sean must team up with his most hated foe. 

. . . Okay team up is a strong word, you barely interact with her for most of this arc to be honest. Sure you're not complaining though.

She is also completely useless like everyone else during cutscenes so that's nice to see.

Also she falls down a trap door which will definitely make me make a Mr. Burns joke.

 

Least you get to maul a pack of kindergarteners to make you feel better. Hell you could have thrown out anyone of your mons and got them to back off too. This is funnier tho.

That'd be excessive force though, Dex.

Can't have that. They're only children...

 

Alt timeline Mosley is like the only thing that keeps this section of the game from being completely grim and serious. I'm extremely thankful to the little gremlin for that.

She is the only one who'll make me hesitate on killing all of them with the detonator at the end.

Kenneth and Amber made their bed by betraying us to Melanie.

 

Kenneth roundhouse kicking Melia made me laugh I gotta admit. She actually gets beat up more in other parts of V13 if you can believe it. Gonna have to teach that girl some CQC.

More like I'm going to have to wrap her in fucking bubble wrap the amount of times she's gotten her ass kicked.

At this point CQC would be pissing in the wind because she won't be any good at it.

SHE DOESN'T EVEN HAVE A SINGLE FIGHTING TYPE!

 

There's few Pokemon battles here so punching it out works for me!

Yeah. Only notable ones are against Valarie and Kenneth.

I think you get to fight Melanie in V13 but from what I've seen you're also supposed to lose a fight to Melia or something?

And fuuuuuuck that.

ONLY when the world collapses, does Keta get a fair hand dealt to him.

Christ, Jan. What did he DO to you?

God what didn't he do the man. Honestly death was probably a relief for the man at a certain point.

His ghost did seem pretty unbothered by his death. He can be at peace with Nora and Taelia now.

...

If Nora is actually dead and if Taelia isn't still inside Aelita.

MAN EVEN IN DEATH JAN. WHAT DID HE DO!?!?

 

The whole environment looks grim, kinda like the design. I imagine when they say 5 islands, I'd like to think thats just whats left of the Aevium Region. I imagine the rest of the world is about the same.

I can see it.

The rest of the world probably leaves the Aevium region the hell alone what with the whole acidic ocean thing. It'd also explain why nobody in the other regions has bothered to deal with Melanie.

It'd be nice to get some concrete info on HOW devastating the cataclysm was though.

 

Only 91 species of mons left, man Gamefreak cut the Pokedex pretty fine this region. Man imagine if you had to do this entire arc with just the six Pokemon you had on hand to fight Vivian. Be a hell of a hard mode challenge at least.

This is the worst Dex Cut I've seen in my life. Where's the Twitter outrage about this one!?

I do TRY to do it with only the six I have on hand.

Mainly because the PCs working in every time period and without any infrastructure annoys the hell out of me.

Truly a work of art, this belongs in every art museum in the world. I've noticed that the girls all look like pre-coma Aelita.

Only the graps got colour for some reason.

 

The future is dire, but somehow internet memes transcend space and time. Maybe Mosely's a time traveler too?

I'm not even sure this future is real. Could all be a simulation.

Because HOW likely is it that Mosely's parents had her 40 something years after the region imploded? They probably weren't even born at the time!

 

I'm surprised you didn't suggest putting Melia in a sleeper hold at the end there. Unconsciousness counts as sleep right? Surely the next day won't be as bad as the first, right. . . right?

 

Pfft. I can just imagine that.

"The weak should fear the strong".

It would have certainly been preferable to the way I put her to sleep THIS chapter though...

Good to see you defending yourselves quite easily. I just "love" the fact that apparently the player decides to surrender to a bunch of toddlers depsite having literal murder machines in his pocket. Especially since most Pokemon in this timeline are dead, and there's no gimmicks for the enemies to pull out of their rear. No Megas, No Z-Moves, No Dyna/GigaMax, No Terastallize, nothing! Heck, Rose can probably defeat them all with a sneeze if she wants to.

Or literally just being an adult vs children. Don't even need the murder machines for it to be nonsensical.

Well she defeats Zira with one this chapter.

Say, what do you think of Terastallize? I give credit to GameFreak, it's not as braindead as Dyna/GigaMax. Megas are still better though. Crystalizing sounds cool...if you know, it doesn't make the Pokemon look weird and hideous. Although I do feel concern about the balance of the game. Imagine a Dragon with a Steel Tera Type....then again, that's the same problem Megas had, and I love Megas.

 

 

Megas are still cooler, though.

Expand  

I feel like it'd be improve if it also locked the opponents pokemon in. As it is, you can counter Terastallize pretty easy by just doing what everyone does when facing a Pokemon with a type advantage. Switch your Pokemon for one that doesn't.

It's a gimmick that'll be forgotten by the next game so it's whatever. And while it is a bit cool, it's much less cool once you realize that you basically trade weakness out for another. So if you crystalize into a fire type, good on you for no longer being a grass type. Just instead now have all the weaknesses of a fire type pokemon. And from what I see of it, it's not like a second/third temporary type either. It just overrides the others.

 

Helpful in a pinch, but single types tend to have a decent chunk of weaknesses depending on which one it is.

Expand  

They've got to stop with all the gimmicks in the 3-D era. We've had a new one every Gen since 6.

Another hit to the "cool" factor is the stupid fucking hats they get. The Grass type one looks like they put a fucking Lego flower block on it's head.

It seems very pointless since you can just do what everyone does when faced with a type disadvantage and switch out your Pokemon.

Now if it FORCED opposing Pokemon to stay in it might be worthwhile to use.

Which joke you went with.....both, but staggred. The first one was probably the breastfeeding, but you'd have brought the labor laws back up.

I gotta say, the montage rather than the 'overnight, you hatch the egg!' is great.

 

Actually, wherever they are is much better then where you are. Unfortunate.

 

....Wow, no respect other than Ceaser and Rose. I don't know what I was expecting, but still.

 

Honestly, I thought there'd be a cutaway joke to Zira eating the corpses you left, rather than the 'licking my boots' angle.

At this point I think you have a higher body count then MadameX. Certainly a higher death count, unless she too has the ability to comeback after death.

 

I’ve been thinking, maybe the reason you were sent to the past was to seduce Vivian then this would lead to the birth of Tealia and eventually Aelita. Not only that but since everyone else Sheridan is a single widow you could go after them. You could be the grandfather for most of the main characters.

There's barely any shows that has a character that shares my race(the Malay race, or Melayu), yet you don't see Melayu throwing tantrums about that. That and we already have our local animation. It's not as high quality like anime or western shows and it's obviously for kids, but it's still fun. For me, at least. I mean, it doesn't have any stupid political crap, so that's always a plus.

God seeing the blue Mimikyu is not great. Like fine it was part of an earlier version of the game, so sure I can get it. But the red and black is so much better for it. But whatever, V10 is this version you're playing, so I gotta deal with all the weirdness of early looking sprites and locations.

 

Including that boat. There were not that many trees on it. Or any trees at all.

 

Maybe it's a stretch, but there was a time where egg pokemon hatched at level 5 right? Or was that only for fossil pokemon? Because maybe because bad different future, most of the rules changed. Specifically for plot reasons but still.

 

The montage was great in all honestly. Even in V13 it took literally a day for the egg to hatch. We're on a boat with supposedly only 4-5 islands left in the world, there had to have been some time passing by.

 

Besides that though good work on this part, even if not much really happened.
