  • I'm a damn twisted person
    I'd say save the master ball for a roaming Pokemon, but B2W2 seem to have decided to skip out on roamers.
  • Definitely not gay.

    Anyways, current team:



    • Level 18 Riolu 

    • Steadfast

    • Bashful

    • Force Palm/Counter/Work Up/Quick Attack


     



    • Level 16 Elekid 

    • Static

    • Hasty (fuck yes!)

    • Quick Attack/Swift/Shock Wave/Low Kick



     



    • Level 13 Snivy 

    • Overgrow

    • Quirky

    • Tackle/Growth/Vine Whip/Wrap


    Gonna drop Snivy really soon.


  • If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.

    No roaming Pokemon in Black 2.


    Which means I can no-effort catch Kyurem!



    Gonna drop Snivy really soon.



    > keeping Elekid > dropping Snivy

    Thinking about evolving my gift eevee into a vaporeon and dropping dewott? How soon can I find a water stone in W2, do you guys know?
  • Definitely not gay.

    Elekid is also going to be dropped after I find a more reliable partner. Like Krookodile or Galvantula.

    Once you get Surf.

    > using Galvantula


    Krookodile is awesome though.

  • I'm a damn twisted person
    But galvantula is adorable. And compound eyes + thunder + STAB = fun times.

    ^ Basically that.


    Also, I want to use my namesake but he's WAAAAAY too rare and slow. So I guess I'm sticking with Galvantula.

  • If that don't work, use more gun.

    Hey, don't knock the Compoundeyes/Thunder combo. Galvantula's pretty awesome.

  • If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.

    Galvantula is frigging annoying.


    Perhaps I would be impressed if Galvantula had a decent stat spread, but as it stands, its only decent stat is Speed.


    Zebstrika is much, much better.

  • Galvantula fan club unite!

    What? No way! For one thing, it's attack is only like 3 points higher than Galvantula's SpAtt stat. And Galvantula has 91% accurate Thunders on it's side. Zebstrika has nothing of the sort. Not to mention, it's physical movepool is very limited compared to Galvantula's special movepool. On top of that, it's just as much of a glass cannon, and it doesn't have good STABs.

  • If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.

    What? No way! That thing's WAY too fragile to be useful.



    It has higher defences than Garvantula does, and a higher base Health, plus it doesn't give itself a weakness to Rock and Fire, plus eliminate its resistance to Flying attacks.


    Zebstrika's only real weakness, Ground-type attacks, can be eliminated with Magnet Rise, whereas there's nothing to defend against Fire-types and Rock-types for Garvantula.

  • Definitely not gay.

    Don't you remember that I prefer offense to defense?

  • If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.

    I was really hoping that this game would break you of that habit, considering the increased difficulty.

    >No mention of Magnemite


    god you're all doing it wrong

    shit


    magnemite exists i forgot


    everyone just go for magnemite

    What increased difficulty? The best strategy in any game is to just go on the offense. The AI's not that good. In fact, ANY Pokemon is usable in the main games. You could solo the game with a LUVDISC for crying out loud!

    Stats don't matter that much in the main game. Movepool does, and Zebstrika has a very lacking physical movepool compared to Galvantula's special moveppol.



    Magnemite



    Or go for that. Really, any Pokemon is usable in the main games, and keep in mind these are kids games, so of course they're not gonna be that difficult.

  • No rainbow star
    Should I even bother finishing my black Nuzlocke?



    I mean, it's stopped being fun to me. Yet I just have training a level 37 (fffffff) Scraggy to level 50 (FFFFFFFF) and my lv 54 Stoutland to lv 57 before facing gym 8, then train everybody 5 levels for the E4, beat Ghetsis, and it's done



    But yet... Well, I started the run on March 7th, 2011
  • Give us fire! Give us ruin! Give us our glory!

    >badmouthing Galvantula


    i am disappoint nova

  • No rainbow star
    Of course the thread dies now...

    As opposed to stalling out your opponent and letting 10+ turns do what a Close Combat from Lucario could do?

    I agree with this.



    and keep in mind these are kids games,



    Well, there's also this. Children are one of the two biggest demographics, the other demographic being 16-20 year-old nerds who played Pokemon when they were kids.

    By the way, have I mentioned how much I love Infernape?


    You should all try teaming it up with Zoroark. Zoroark's like a far weaker version of Darkrai, but with a nice gimmicky ability (I guess) and access to U-turn. NO-ONE sees it coming on an OU team, and it lacks the annoying Psychic weakness Gengar has.

  • No rainbow star

    I just found out that the beta name for New Bark Town was Silent Hills


     


    Dear god, imagine the fan theories connecting it with Silent Hill if that name was kept...

  • If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.

    I agree with this.



    Okay. I tell you what; let's test whose method is better.


    Currently, I am up to the seventh Gym Leader with a total play time of 6:22. My current team is composed of a Level 37 Axew, a Level 44 Zoroark, a Level 48 Samurott, a Level 41 Lucario, and a Level 33 Tranquill I use for Fly. Over the course of the entire game, I have had three Pokemon faint on me.


    If you can beat any two of these records, I will immediately restart my game and go for a purely offensive-oriented lineup, and see how many Pokemon are knocked out/dislike me during that.


    Sound okay?

  • Definitely not gay.

    Zoroark


    Lucario


    Axew (which evolves into Haxorus)



    and this isn't an offense team

  • No rainbow star

    Really? Who uses a pure offense on a Nuzlocke Run? Sometimes things happen involving Hax that can screw you over if you don't have a tank to switch to to cover your ass


     


    On my run, my sweepers have a tendency to die. Not ONE of my tanks have died yet

  • Definitely not gay.

    Yeah, but I'm not Nuzlocking, so

  • Give us fire! Give us ruin! Give us our glory!

    I dunno, I tend to put at least 2 tanks on my team and it's gone swimmingly for me. I know I couldn't have beaten Cynthia without my Ferrothorn.

  • Definitely not gay.

    Yeah, but that's the way you play it. I just happen to prefer offense because the strategy works for me.
