It helps with you, since you've no idea who they are b/c you haven't played Original Generation 2. I did very well going into this, so there was absolutely no mystery to be had, just lighthearted amnesia stuff, which was still good. Although, I can't have firsthand experience of everything that has happened to Axel & Alfimi up to this point, since OG Gaiden happened before Exceed (and possibly EF1), and that hasn't been translated yet. That, and I'm told the event that led them to come to the Endless Frontier was described in a drama CD.

Acacia Sgt Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 (edited) Fun little fact. Axel referring to himself and Alfimi as "comrades in amnesia," it's quite possibly a reference that in his SRW game of origin, A, he says something similar (since if he's chosen as the protagonist, he gets amnesia too; rather, Exceed is simply copying/referencing that aspect of SRW A). A's roster includes Tōshō Daimos, whose female lead, Erika, was an amnesiac during the first episodes. So when Axel learns about that, he jokes about the situation, and receives a dope slap for his trouble.

Robert Stewart Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 I need Vestaria Saga advice. Specifically WRT the final map. Is there any way to eliminate the sentinels in the map? I'd be able to block more reinforcements if not for them. Is there a long-term benefit to killing Voxevald vs just forcing him to leave? IIRC @Saint Rubenio has finished VS?

Benice Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Teehee Crusaders, part 3: I am an expert at JRPGs. Spoiler We start the day with Armagon raising his power level to over 9,000! Look at this lad. What a champ. With our team, we pull up to the water gym. This shouldn't go too horribly, I hope. I am good at this. Excellent. Very excellent, even. Ouch, that one hurt. Armagon hits really hard, so he'll just need to tank a hit like a champ. Shouldn't be too hard, given his large HP pool. ... That's pretty bad. That's really bad... First Teehee death of the run. Perhaps Steve Jobs will fare better... He did not. ... I hope they have Yaoi for you in Pokeheaven, IO. You did good until I goofed up. Julizan can't do anything, and Steve Jobs is really good, so maybe Guardian can do something? Welp. It's so sad that Steve Jobs died of Ligma. ...This might be the end of the run. We've won, but at what cost... St. Elimine, I have one pokemon left... At least Julizan is absolutely busted and can get us across the bridge. Bellsprout is our new second-in-command. I name it Ron, because it vaguely looks like a bean, and Ronald Weasley loves beans. This wasn't a horrid spot to lose everyone, since there are two pokemon I can get nearly back-to-back. The next one is... ... Absolutely peachy. I'm tickled pink. Welcome to the team. I don't bother grinding up Bruh, but maybe I should've. We then pick up Fodder from just past Vermillion city, as I intend to trade it for Farfetch'd. Excellent. We then head over to Diglett cave to get a Diglett. After nearly dying to the second gym, I'm actually feeling good. Julizan is fantastic, Ron hits like a truck, Bruh is some good fodder... With the addition of a Diglett, we're finally getting back to a decently sized team of fi- ... We then clear out a bunch of trainers over in the field to get some money, when... Oh no. He mentioned electricity, don't tell me- ABSOLUTELY PEACHY Haha, I'm in danger. Oh? OH? We may have a chance... Oh dear. Well, if I can set up Ron to deal some good Vine Whip damage, I can- Paralysis. Wonderful. AAAAAAAAAAAGH Welp. 1/3 down... Wow. Hope I don't end up sacking you. Dangit, another one?! Nice. Ron gets a pair of boosts off when I remembered I have a paralysis heal. No time to use it, though. If it can nearly OHKO a Magnemite with not-very-effective damage, I'd hate to see the numbers put up by Ron with effective damage. 2/3 DOWN. WE MIGHT HAVE IT, LADS Oh, bloody- Third Verse, same as the second? Please? Eergh... I'm nearly out of heals... Ron's gotta finish it quickly. After Ron starts dealing more damage to himself than the Magneton is, I decide to take a risk and see if Juli can't take a hit. What a champ. However, I should save you for the end if I need to... Now, Bruh just needs to survive a hit so that I can heal Ron's paralysis. It's not luck, it's skill. RIP Bruh, your sacrifice shan't be forgotten. Alright, Ron! Let's do this! ... Oh no. Ron, you'd better- Damnit.... Ron was surprisingly good for the two seconds he was around... Ch'ding dies because I forgot poison ticks when you get thrown in, so I can't even heal Juli in time. Juli dies to a crit here, so this could be the end of the run. JULIZAN PLEASE STOP Thank goodness... Well, this is it. Either Julizan lands the hit, or we die. ...On the bright side, if that happens, we can turn Wraith into the rival instead of Reuben. GGs. For the second time today, Julizan is the only Teehee knight standing. I need to heal right away or- ...I could have sworn I already fought you. This would be an anticlimactic finish. Fortunately, Julizan is busted and bites us out of this. Oy vey... At least it's fewer deaths at this point than when I played FE7! Gimme I may as well shake down everyone else, right? Bad choice. Well, it went smoothly, somehow. I finish walking around and head to the S.S. Anne to get Cut and fight some lads. Juli easily 1-2HKOs everything. Nice. Ah, mon ennemi! Comment ça va? Je pense que vous devez faire vous-même. Alrighty, let's do this. Six damage. Juli OP. Nice. I should really take this move, but I like all my current ones. You dastard. You dastard. We call this TMI in the cool kids business. GYAAA- AAAAAAAAAAAAA- MOTHER VERIA 1 HP... 1 HP... Okay, no more 20 damage/turn. Did we win? Bite should be an OHKO here, I think. Lemme just heal, no reason to rush. What a catastrophe. Tsunderueben. I can't believe we won that... Juli is a true champ. I grab cut before leaving the boat, then call it a day. ...And what a day it was. Sorry about that, Armagon and Inty. Ideally, you will be able to be reincarnated, but we have to make it that far first. I hope I get some more pokemon soon, because we are in grave danger if I have just Juli for the next gym, which is Lightning, if I am not mistaken. Oooh, if only I had a Diglett... Well, hope y'all have a nice day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such disrespect for poor Spearow/Fearow trading it for a wor-... well I guess Farfetch'd is a bit tankier than Spearow, even if its much worse than Fearow, gets extra exp for being a traded pokemon, and Fearow is rendered rather redundant by Dodrio soon enough, so this might not be the worst idea for trying to help keep yourself afloat.

Oooh, if only I had a Diglett... As far as I can tell there are three routes you can still get mons from, although you will have to double check which routes they are based on the "met at" location for your two Bellsprouts to figure it out. You can get mons from Route 24/25 (check the location data of Ron for which of these you missed), and Route 5/6 (check the location data of Bruh for which of these you missed), and with cut you can get all the way back to Route 22 for the encounter you missed there. Route 24 and 25 are the two routes above nugget bridge, and unless you are checking your map, I don't blame you for missing that there are technically two routes up there, Route 5 is the route just south of Cerulean (you have to fall down a ledge to get to the grass) and Route 6 is the one just north of Vermillion. As for Route 22 you would have to pass through Diglett cave, and use cut on the other side to get back to Viridian city, as it is the route just west of Viridian city, and do be warned the pokemon you find there will be low level, and you shouldn't bother trying to injure it before catching as you will probably accidentally kill it if you do, so just throw balls immediately. I suppose you could also get a Magikarp by either walking back to the Pokecenter before Mt. Moon and buying one from the guy in there for 500, or get the Old Rod from the fisher in Vermillion to catch one yourself in one of the cities with water (do note using the Old Rods will only give you Magikarp encounters, so don't waste all of your city encounters on them...), although even if you level it all the way to Gyrados it wont do you much good against the electric Gym, despite how good it is otherwise. Also you might want to use your dig TM (if you haven't already) before the electric gym, that way you at least have a super effective move available.
