    Okay, TMI there.


    Now that you have a Deino... If you evolve it to a Hydreigon, it will basically curbstomp Ghetsis single-handedly, and will pretty handily deal with two of the Elite Four and most of N's Pokemon, too.

    Okay. Well, I'm waiting in the room now.

    Getting there now. Just needed trade fodder

    Goodbye, Egg ;-;

    Goodbye, random zubat I caught 5 minutes ago

    Bam.


    Okay, my Friend Code for Black 2 is 4685 6355 7193. If anyone wants to trade with me later/tomorrow to increase our Joint Avenue thingies, post your Friend Code and I'll figure out a time.

    I'll trade tomorrow. Need some sleep for my interview

    Also, they did not butcher the music! >:|
  • If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.

    Not all of the music, but some of it, especially the Team Plasma theme.

  • If that don't work, use more gun.

    Wild Pokemon theme for me. Oh god, why is it so off key!? The original songs, such as Corless' theme, are fantastic though. So I don't know how they fucked up the remixes! 


    Ghetsis? His Hydreigon is much easier to deal with now. It has a Life Orb, so it's gonna get weak enough for you to take it out. Plus one of it's moves got replaced with Frustration of all things.

    Icalasari is still playing Black, though, I believe?

  • No rainbow star
    ^ White, but yeah
  • If that don't work, use more gun.

    Oh. Well if you have a fighting type, none of it's moves will be super effective against you.

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

    On the other hand, unless you have Lucario, it is going to hit for at least neutral damage on you.


    And Hydreigon is powerful enough that unless you have a very bulky Pokemon, that will kill you.


    Remember that Icalasari is also Nuzlockeing here.

    But it has Focus Blast...


    I don't know what Pokemon he has, so I can't really help him.


    Oh you have a Scraggy? Scrafty's pretty good for taking down his Hydreigon. It's good at tanking it's hits, and it can survive a Focus Blast.

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

    Oh, right.


    Good luck tanking a Dragon Pulse, then, I guess.


    He does have a Deino and an Axew now, though.

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

    There we go. Ground Aron into an Aggron.


    At Level 42, Aggron has 168 Defence. Not bad.

  • If that don't work, use more gun.

    Axew? Oh, you can take out his Hydreigon EASILY then. Dragon Dance like crazy on his Cofagrigus, And go wild on his team. It won't have Earthquake to deal with Eelektross, but at that point it should be unstoppable.

    Holy shit.


    Just beat the seventh Gym.


    Team Plasma has now become a credible threat.

    Okay, Terrakion also appeared to me.


    Icalasari- it looks like we were wrong. The protagonists of B2/W2 are special, like the protagonist of Black and White- just... differently so.


    Where the protagonists of the first two games are concerned with stopping Black and White, searching for their truths and ideals, the protagonists of the second two games are concerned with defending people from Team Plasma.

  • But you never had any to begin with.

    In fact, ANY Pokemon is usable in the main games. You could solo the game with a LUVDISC for crying out loud!



    You can solo FF1 with a White Mage, doesn't mean you should.

  • Definitely not gay.

     Yeah, it's a bad idea to do that.

     

    But that's not his point. The point isn't in strategy: of course it's a terrible idea to use one of the worst Pokemon ever in a playthrough. The point is in possibility. You can construct an underleveled team with terrible type synergy and underwhelming stats and still beat the game (hope you like Revives though). 

     

     

     
  • Definitely not gay.

    BTW, do any of you know when the Name Rater/Changer is available in W2?


    I'm not happy with some of the names I gave my Pokemon.

    Although the point is actually false, as Luvdisc doesn't have enough PP to be able to take on the entire Elite Four. Although I guess you could abuse Max Elixirs, but that's generally not considered to be a good idea.


    Also, the game is designed with type matchups in mind. Although you technically could beat the game with a Luvdisc or a Magikarp, the comparison to a White Mage in FF1 is apt; you'd be deliberately shorting yourself and leaving yourself wide open to a lot of things that would be covered if you didn't.


    And I'm not even sure if it's possible to grind up a Luvdisc to the point where all that would be possible in Black and White, anyway, due to the level differences in EXP gains.

    Casteliacone City, in the Medal Office.

    I never said it was going to be easy, fun, or smart. I just said it was possible.

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

    Yeah, but Saigyouji's comparison was the same. You technically could beat FF1 with a White Mage, the same way you technically could beat Black 2 with a Luvdisc, but it would be painful, stupid, and take forever.

  • Definitely not gay.

    I know.


    My point is that it is perfectly possible to do that, no matter how foolhardy it would be.

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

    Yes, but the point made originally was that Black 2/White 2 were harder than their predecessors.


    Marioguy responded that it is technically possible to beat the game with a Luvdisc. So Saigyouji responded that yes, you technically could, but it would be painful and stupid.

  • Definitely not gay.

    Black 2/White 2 were harder than their predecessors.



    Wait, really?
