Also if his hand's okay.

Flaaffy does not. 

Why though?

Vaporeon is one of two Eeveelutions in this game worth a damn, the other being Glaceon, but you can only evolve Eevee into Glaceon in the Ice Kingdom. Vaporeon has a boatload of HP, strong Attack, good Defense and Speed that holds up quite nicely. It's attack Hydro Pump is like using both Bubble and BubbleBeam at the same time (minus the chance to reduce speed tho), Water absorb converts damage from Water type moves into HP, which isn't too useful at this point but can combo well with our Water types. 

Are the others bad due to attack ranges?

Staraptor has great Attack and Speed and middling Defense (looks bigger due to item) and HP. Brave Bird is a powerful attack with an interesting drawback which I will get into later. 

Okay, so it's not recoil in this game. This should be interesting.

I assume it'll be a tactical missile of sorts in future.

Empoleon over here is just MADE of Attack. Sure its getting boosted, but it's still naturally really high. It's Defense and HP are very good too. Speed is on the lower side, but it's serviceable. Hydro Pump is still pretty good. 

I doubt that's more than a 20% boost right?

You're not kidding.

I've mentioned it a few times, but maybe not to you, or you just forgot. 

I think it came up that time I mentioned that my mother once pointed out that we had Irish ancestry resulting in my brother and I doing a pointless back and forth with a certain ethnic slur for the Irish that I can't take seriously ("You're a _____", "No you're a _____") for a while as she got increasingly irritated with our antics. I believe that was in the TRS LP from memory.

After he left the army, he's been training toprove himself to us again, shame that his Pokémons stats will reset to what they were when he left if he rejoins us.

Guess he forgot he had the negative growths mod on.

Do, you just know this?

Crocodiles are my favourite animal. I know insane amounts of things on crocodiles. The age of the oldest living crocodile in captivity. The size of the largest crocodile in capativity (it's the same one). The fact said crocodile gets birthday cakes made out of chicken necks for photoshoots. The date of birth of the oldest Nile crocodile in captivity (the 18th december, and it's a different crocodile to the oldest in captivity). Land-speed records (you know alligators run even faster than crocodiles), the various ways to tell the differences between crocodiles and alligators, from the fact crocodiles have a triangular snout and exposed teeth while alligators have a rounded snout and their teeth fit in the confines of their mouth, to the more obscure ones like the differences in the scale pattern and the fact crocodiles don't have a belly button scar from the umbilical chord but alligators do. The fact that Australian saltwater crocodiles are immune to cane toad toxins but Australian freshwater crocodiles die from it. The 2012 discovery that even larger crocodiles can actually climb trees and use them as a vantage point. How many months a crocodile can go without eating after a big meal. Thanks to Dragoncat, I know about the fact some gators survived a cold snap by sticking their nostrils through the water so when the surface froze they were able to breath, but still insulated by the ice. I know that Adolf Hitler used to visit a particular alligator at the Berlin zoo, which ended up being captured by the Russians after it survived the bombing of Berlin. I know that it died earlier this year, and had actually panicked when the tanks passed through Moscow during the fall of the USSR, presumably due to memory of the bombing of Berlin. Point is, I have a rather thorough knowledge on the things. Do I get a lot of use out of it?

This update, was kind of a pain to put together actually. Either my computers screenshot function or imgbox messed up because the body of the update where the castle battle took place was randomly spread around the rest of the images, thankfully their order didn't get messed up but was still annoying. 

Imgbox's never done that to me. That sounds more like the stunts that Imgur constantly pulled before I stopped using it. Weird.

*Selective player
It really, really doesn't hurt that I'm playing the FE I've been through the most times.. (admittedly on lower difficulties than this). If I picked something I knew less... I'd probably be screwing up more. For instance, I only played through Radiant Dawn once back in 2011... (I had an abandoned later run where I lost interest in part 3 with the Greil Mercenaries)... so if I said I was anywhere close to remembering enemy spawn points/times there I'd be flat lying.

Also the fact Caeda got strength blessed to hell and back really doesn't hurt.

Hello, everybody, hope y'all had a wonderful Dec 24th-26th, I'm gonna try to get an update out every 2-4 days or so from now until I beat maingame. Postgame is something I'll show a little of but I can't guarantee that I'll have a solid pace for it.

Ehh, We'll workshop it. 

Why though?

Next castle is the final banner map, I wanted Discharge, that's all. 

Are the others bad due to attack ranges?

You're partially right, but the only one with an actually bad attack range is Jolteon. The main reason is for type coverage and stat spread.  

I assume it'll be a tactical missile of sorts in future.

Ehhh, well you'll see...

I doubt that's more than a 20% boost right?

You're not kidding.

It boosts attack by one stage, however much that is in Gen V.

Ampharos is nice to see, though I thought it'd be generally higher than it is.

Hello Arbok. Also Ekans claimed a banner offscreen. 

Fun fact. Batman had three Snake themed villains over the years. King Snake, Kobra, and Copperhead. King Snake being the newest, and Copperhead being the oldest. Following this logic... the third form of the Ekans evolution line should have been "Daehreppoc". Which is probably as good a reason as any to leave the line at two evolutions.

Marine biology? I'll admit, I never would've expected it. The sea has nothing to do with butter, and butter is your only character trait! What a plothole this is...

The persona that I present online is but a construct of the scared lonely person behind the screen, who is typing. 

Hmmm... Shall I copypaste the definition of sarcasm here, or would that be too heavy-handed? What do you think, Butterman?

I mean I don't see how that would be relevant to this conversation, but if you wanna go ahead. 

I can't blame you. You're a stick of butter. I can't imagine you can see all too well without eyes.

But I have eyes. You canonically designed them. 

You don't wanna mess with Derrick, man. You saw what happened to the last guy that tried.

...He was barely mentioned in a paper that sold poorly and only in Japan?

I do, that was hilarious. I even promoted Arkis. Figured you'd enjoy it. He survived, too, even though he did nothing to deserve it. I'm so good to you, and how do you repay my kindess? By making puns about my waifu's death. For shame, Butterman!

Oooh. I'm such a naughty butterperson. Are you going to punish me?

Let me guess: Grass pokemons.

We've fought Grass already. 

Nene, in Spanish, is a word used to affectionately refer to babies or otherwise really small children. There's something wrong with the fact that such a name has been slapped on Miss Knockers overthere.

Haha. Spainish. 

Yes, it's this revolutionary concept known as Thracia's warp tiles.

...Except you can see them, because whoever made this game does not despise humanity like Kaga did during the production of Thracia.

True, but some of the other maps would make Kaga proud. 

That was easy.

Yeah kinda. 

Rikyu finally gave up on trying to get back in the team, and has decided to instead take up a different job so he can continue to be relevant.

Too bad that was like the last time we ever use the Alchemist. 

To their credit, it's probably the least obvious of the four. I'm also not that familiar with pokemon types, so... Yeah, this'll be the first time I'll be seriously surprised.

Nyohoho. 

Keep what buttery, Butterman? You're not making any sense.

How did Hideyoshi manage to get recruited by Nobunaga?

He either got beat in 4 turns, or just couldn't damage any of Nobunaga's Pokémon. 

How would she do that while being on the ceiling?

Ninja magic.

Swmco9yo o7ovwbirf o

Salve can be decent but usually isn't. Beedrill is an interesting Pokémon, as it's previous evolutionary forms are not present in the game at all. Unfortunately being unique doesn't make Beedrill good. Beedrill has mediocre stats all around and isn't able to evolve to fix them. Twinneedle is an alright move having good range and the ability to poison. Like Doubleslap it hits up to 5 times, however it actually does damage unlike Doubleslap. Vanguard is a neat ability that increases damage if the user acts first in a turn. Despite the decent move and ability Beedrill is held back by it's low potential for growth.

So it has an AoE, but one where the centre doesn't take damage. Can the centre be empty or does it have to be occupied?

You know, I kind of wonder why they didn't use Beedrill as a Jagen. The bug type, at least in Gen I, were treated as the "beginner type", in that they evolved quickly... but grew poorly and had lacking movesets. Seriously Gen 1 bug moves sucked so much that Gen II needed to introduce a new type to counter the psychic type... the thing bugs were supposed to be a counter to. A Pokemon that's got early-game potency, but is lacklustre at mid to late game. Perfect metaphor for a Jagen. Guess Jigglypuff was just more marketable.

Why is it that random gimmicks you can't plan around are the one thing that irks me more than anything else? Say what you will about crits. But at least if you assume they're always going to happen for the enemy and never happen for you (as long as the enemy has a 1% chance or you have less than 100%), you can plan to minimize the chance of one killing someone, be it attacking from a range the enemy can''t use..  or simply using a unit too tanky to die to chip before you have someone else finish the job. But this? You need a different contingency for every individual Pokemon on the battlefield being warped. For every turn. Or you need to think up a new strategy each turn. How fun.

While a storm contains water, but that was Nix'd by Fontaine's use of it, and Violight ices Electricity's chances as well.

Gosh golly I really intended to get this out earlier, whoops, I think I'll be able to get more parts out soon, at least 1 a week, but don't hold me to it sorry.

Higher statwise, come on!

Oh, alright. 

Why then would you not be able to get Beedril earlier when it could have more impact?

Beedrill is not found in the wild during base game, as it only appears at 3rd level areas, by then you should already have strong volved Pokémon. The only other way to get Beedrill in your army is torecruit a Warrior who has  one, but not many do. 

Are we sure he's not some other creature?

Or just really committed to the emo ninja look?

He just REALLY likes Zoroark. 

Wait, they give you stuff when they teleport you away?

That's the most generous teleportation trap I've seen in some time.

Yeah but it's mostly potions so it's not really a benefit. 

Hmm, seems familiar......

Is it a Dialga?

...no

So it has an AoE, but one where the centre doesn't take damage. Can the centre be empty or does it have to be occupied?

Centre can be empty, doesnt have to be but can. 

You also linked to this thread instead of edgelord's music.

Hehe whoops! Should be fixed now.

Seems like this is an LPer thing now. Threatening to kill people.

How dare you generalize us. I'll kill you!

Plot twist. They kill Tifa instead and the plot now makes no sense. But hey, it's not like they haven't done anything to Tifa yet.

inb4 Sephiroth kills another Sephiroth, and THIS was the real Sephiroth all along!

I should have guessed.  Meanwhile, there's places in the world where it's literally legal to own a pet crocodile. It's just, with them being known to be capable of living over 100 years... that's not a decision one can do frivolously. Between the fact the meat needed to feed it, and the fact a crocodile born today could theoretically outlive everyone in this thread... and the security measures needed for the enclosure... and the space required for said enclosure... this is the kind of thing you need more dollars than sense  to think is a good idea.

Or be an Irwin. 

Then everyone in the west would think it was just fat.

Idk chonky snake would be a cool mon. 

I imagine it's kind of the same as you feel when you pun a unit. Make of that what you will.

Faint glee?

You know, I kind of wonder why they didn't use Beedrill as a Jagen. The bug type, at least in Gen I, were treated as the "beginner type", in that they evolved quickly... but grew poorly and had lacking movesets. Seriously Gen 1 bug moves sucked so much that Gen II needed to introduce a new type to counter the psychic type... the thing bugs were supposed to be a counter to. A Pokemon that's got early-game potency, but is lacklustre at mid to late game. Perfect metaphor for a Jagen. Guess Jigglypuff was just more marketable.

Idk, a fully evolved Pokémon from the start might have been too OP. 

Sounds like Pawnography.

Cease. 

Why is it that random gimmicks you can't plan around are the one thing that irks me more than anything else? Say what you will about crits. But at least if you assume they're always going to happen for the enemy and never happen for you (as long as the enemy has a 1% chance or you have less than 100%), you can plan to minimize the chance of one killing someone, be it attacking from a range the enemy can''t use..  or simply using a unit too tanky to die to chip before you have someone else finish the job. But this? You need a different contingency for every individual Pokemon on the battlefield being warped. For every turn. Or you need to think up a new strategy each turn. How fun.

Ehh, I kinda like having to adapt to unexpected situations, one of the main reasons I hate 0% growths  LTC is that it reduces the game to a replicatable sequence of button presses. 

Wait... you use "I'll kill you" and get rid of an Edgelord in the same chapter. Are we sure you're the real Pengauis and not Ruben?

What of course not...

I remember my first Gardevoir. I was playing Sapphire blind... hence when I caught a male Ralts and it evolved into Kirlia and Gardevoir.... I was more than a little confused on why this line wasn't gender-locked.

Kilts. 

Well, seeing as there's four types left and we always have the Dragon at the end of the game in an SRPG and Pokemon both.
Spectra doesn't stand a ghost of a chance of fooling me now that we know Yaksha was Dark.
While a storm contains water, but that was Nix'd by Fontaine's use of it, and Violight ices Electricity's chances as well.
As for Valora, one can steel the answer by eliminating the other sixteen types... or just knowing their manufacturers.

Do you are want die?

But if he didn't lose the thing, she'd have a damn Jigglypuff.
No, I was gonna bench that thing as soon as I could, it has not been missed.

Ah6e9wgw oM8rpezho o

Ignoring that i took these mid fight. Bustle is always good. 

Shinx is an okay Pokémon, Having decent Attack and Speed and moderate everything else. Sequence boosts the power of Electric types in a radius. Spark is just electric quick attack that does less damage the 2nd time onwards. 

Ej1dxwfa o

Forretress is without a doubt the worst Pokémon in the game, because of 1 simple thing, it's move. 

Rtzskigi o1hhaf5iw o6lc3zmzi oNeuacnt0 oT793zxzq oPznafpoa o

Gyro ball is, uh not very good. See the thing about Gyro Ball is that it deals extra damage to foes that are faster than the user. The problem with Gyro Ball is that it has practically 0 base Power, and the move ignores the users Sttack during calculations. This means that despite having a rather impressive Attack stat, Forretress cannot use it. effectively the only things this move can hurt are glass speedsters. Additionally the move pushes the user forward 1 tile, as long as the target is on the same altitude as the user. 

Gyro ball effectively reduces the things that Forretress can do to sitting on banners to stall. However, since the attack moves the user forward, Forretress has to leave the banner to do it's 1 damage. Compare this to Pineco, who can use Bug Bite to munch on the enemies items while in the same position. Let that sink in. EVOLVING Pineco makes it worse in every way. 

The reason the Bottom 3 (Rhyperior £rd, Jigglypuff 2nd and Forretress !st) are the worst is because they are actively worse than their previous forms. (igglybuff is still trash, but it as pound which is better than doubleslap) evolving makes these Pokémon DIRECT DOWNGRADES to their previous forms.  

Anyhow back to this stuff.

Oh Kadabra's great. 

So Charizard doesn't get Fire Blast?

Nope that honour goes to Darmanitan, and it's one hell of a move. 

That and having the same move as fliers in FEH aside, Charizard seems alright.

It's pretty damn good. 

>That Attack stat.

Indeed. 

Wasn't Ember at 1 range? And you know, not dropping an icicle on someone?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Still better tank than Foretress stat wise.

I mean there is a 10% Link difference but yeah. 

Sure that typing, but still.

it's cool fairy type doesn't exist yet. 

I mean, more Power, right?

It's a coin-toss between the two really.

Today we are headed to Nixtorm. 

G49igv6o oC99vqypy oOwfj0n7y o

As always Oichi gives us advice for the coming battle. 

Sb4u0vto oGv7iq5f5 oXm0bwgfy o

The team today is smaller than usual, partially because this map can be awkward to move a lot of 'mons on, but mostly because I want the space to do things in the Kingdom this month ( I didn't end up doing anything in this kingdom because nothing I cared about was in the wild. 

Ke4dcdzg o

The Kingdom of Nixtorm

Kew5azrx oBvhiwvw6 oTi5kdlq7 oNpj8ie3m oC2i2pceo oB185ms1q oRbs0xdi8 oKxby9jq1 oOtcryg9v oPb4sbddw oEjgubtcc oR3bc9kd1 o

Oh damn, this really is just the plot of Conquest. 

Ysoz4ede o8enyycny oQrxf2zsv oGp2nvplf oVcagq7s9 o

25 Turn rout map, that's a lot of turns, why do we need so many?

Swmi8qgr oOhmepbk4 oL1qkrosu o

Mitsuhide is so pretty, shame he's a Camus. Oh and Gracia is here too, she hopes we're ready or whatever. 

Bfehi7rn oOsm4azok oQiaphchs o6btopkva oW976vozw o2ghk3m39 o

Map and Music, this is the best track in the game, if nothing else PLEASE, PLEASE give it a listen, they really pushed the DS soundboard to its fullest with this.

 

6rb7dwn0 oNscjmmgx oWzxdfr07 oZn1wrpxr o

This map has two gimmicks. Snow that reduces movement and Ice that really really increases it beyond control. Thankfully you an undo any slide movement which is just a Godsend. 

Eaixy6xs oX4ea9ksd o

Movement on this map can be kind of awkward, and I took these screenshots 7 months ago, so apologies if I can communicate what's going on very well. Anyway, turn 1 movement. 

Lrkabxpl oBwtn1weo oKf83zwyl oJpmbgjl9 o

Did I say this map has 2 gimmicks? Whoops, it actually has 3. The Ice panels over water move when a 'mon steps on them. Anyway, the enemies move and Gracia has a line. 

S54xfdkq oApyie7xz oHleq8mzk oPxe0v99g oRqwbngcz oKnufyy4q o

Anyway, Charizard melts Cubchoo, Vaporeon acts out that one part of the Bible and Conkeldurr breaks a Tree for a Potion. 

Ypekdyrp oOohqdaec o

They move. Did I say 3 Gimmicks? I meant 4! Thin Ice turns into Cracked Thin Ice when a 'mon stands on it, and well, you'll see.

Tz37mfny oBtjzdkgo oPjbqwxox o

I think Vaporeon got hit last turn for lol damage, but because quality LP I didn't catch it. Anyhow, we attack and move. 

Cpegaf1t oCsx98eno o

I didn't even get any shots of EP, aren't you glad this Quality LP is back. 

4czh9mmk oUmwviwwh oAa7ykke9 oB5fzqsbf oKyl5hz9n oK6zmyzkn o

Anyway, Vaporeon smashes some Ice through Lapras and using some cool positioning, Charizard and Ampharos attempt something cool, but Amphy whiffs it. Conkeldurr will do something any minute now. 

Xtndwyj8 oI9slj8rx oTopko8v8 oIxcj1jnr oPisin2vo o

Conkeldurr falls asleep, truly a vital part of our team and Mitsuhide does whatever his Warrior Skill is (Crack Shot, not that I took any screenshots of Mitsuhides team comp, goddamn 7 months ago me, were you even trying?), hitting his Teammate to hit us. Talk abot cold *badum-tsh*

Rpal8c2i oEkfru5u7 oMimwcpch oGrelsfqw oEdyj9f16 oZxpfwylr oRvhwph8m oIbgw8cv6 oRn66k3oa o

The team pull off some awesome moves, dealing hard hits and managing inventory, while Conkeldurr does nothing, the lazy bum. 

6ruvfn11 oZosazt45 oZdm1ztvk o7nwrweah o0ut7hedl o

D-did I just catch an entire enemy phase extremely well, 7 months ago me was inconsistent as hell. Anyway, we take some hits and Munna is reapplying Hypnosis so Conkeldurr won't wake up (which isn't even how the game handles Sleep, but since it can't make any other actions, it will keep on trying)

Zvrawfus oQgwiz9xi oE9ehrvl9 o07r2eafa o4jhgdf9k o

1 hit, 1 heal and 2 immobile. How exiting. 

Yvvb3ilm oXu4lbldy oVf6xef2b oFz4p3om4 oKodvye9p o

Sealeo gets Paralysed, Munna applies a 3rd coat of Sleep, and Musharna fucks around and finds out with the Thin Ice. (it drops you in water, and if you aren't a water type the game forces you out the same way GBAFE units are when their rescuer dies on a peak tile). 

3ci5nlhx oUkn4adur oUeyzkrb8 oIugj7nv7 o7qzjnzh0 o

Mitsuhide is gone Krabby (not in the game) Rave. We also hit the others. 

Ukhqxokv oMkfrajsd o

Love how due to the fact Mitsuhide is gone the camera pans to Gracia who is second-in-command who is just dicking around at the top of the stage. Also nothing of note must have happened. 

S8rnqin8 oJi6nljdi oQ8obnyox oWupwwlrf oOehjaylh o9kdcggyu oBdwfswjm oHevyjfon oH8rpr5hs oLsawdzjn o

Conkeldurr wakes up and chooses violence and Charizard and Vaporeon, do to Sealeo, something they call Blanching in the food processing world. Sadly funny Ice physics do not apply to shoved 'mons, but then again a Munna carcass sliding across an ice field like a goddamn curling stone may not have been PG.

 Vrfsvok9 oPo9vyyax oNqqnsdt2 o

At this point we are just waiting to beat Musharna to death so I'll just fast forward to the proverbial clubbing of the baby seal.

All of this stuff happens. 

Now an unfortunate incident occurred after this. As you know, I try to feature two battles in every update so that updates have substance, usually I do the battles on separate months for better pacing of the update, which means I don't take screenshots of most auxiliary grinding battles, this coming battle was no different, however...

Vclzfrpa oIoyblhtu oYhbc0s7g oUujkr2wg oUbnyw3yc oIy044yvl o6vczbxk0 oRzp3yk6j oL19mpzef o

...Yep, we lost him in a non important battle. Charmeleon then attempted to evolve, which I had to refuse as his Pokemon was defeated and losers don't get to evolve. So yeah.

Vq9m7ua1 oGwcn8arm o

On a separate note, Chikamasa's Empoleon has reached its Link Cap. Sadly Chikamasa's Perfect Link isn't empoleon (It's Wooper and Quagsire if you want to know) so his Empoleon will never get any stronger than it is now. 

Orjaizfi oJfh6vxds oBdbtbd9m oFe5nnssq oOr1ygbsi oWbjt9tt5 o4q5ogucr o

This is the final relevant battle of this month. 

Aqxlnlsp o

New month. 

Gv9q9tkk oAy0s6ehb oJuqvstxz o5dxa6syz oPpxr04fs oK3r3zeo0 oYrradwmb oIchihby4 oYxyb16e8 oTk1igujq oGmpthxu2 oMcmrr0ff oYrlysizm oO0b7krje o

We move Takatora into Pugilis, fight a battle that is completely unimportant and replace our cool Charmeleon with a Cottonee. 

Qa9mvh6j oKtdeozxj o5hdoveqt oBp6f8qko o5ythupmj oSuzdqdic o0do8npdg oPtbnez5d oMrhstdkj oH5nq9st4 o9z1jnw0b oQ9tlorqv oHsoyv5on o

These happen.

Uujhl5x9 o30thi1en oJwe5gbud oHhzvf0jl o8iofkzyg o

Continuing from where Luxio left off Luxray is kind of just a worse Ampharos, along the line Luxray lost it's advantage in power against the sheep Pokemon to go all in with speed, which could have been good if it weren't for the fact that they're both locked to Thunder which is inherently sorta inaccurate, so you have the choice between the actually significantly more powerful and bulky Ampharos or the slighty more accurate and dodgy Luxray. It's actually a kind of sad mirror of the rivals in Pokemon games, where they start off even with the player but by the end of the game you stomp them into the dirt. 

Anyway, moving on. 

Lcakfg8j oRu5qtfde oOvujonay oZqy2hazn o

This also happens. 

Nvgxv8nc oPs2qmxj2 o

And now we grind Ryhorn. 

Gurykxrg oZhfxcryn oCcnvjkme o

10 turn rout map. 

Pbifcns1 oMybuon3d oSe4gggmk oWo1cdhgs o

This map is small, so we can actually look at it from all angles. 

Juzoduwb o9vyyzy5o oSi0cbwcb o4oqixsar oXc7kjfxt o

Our first turn we make a formation and Ryhorn picks up 2 items, the potion was obtained from destroying a tree if it wasn't immediately clear. 

Aet2tfyd o1lr6chpo oD8hmriug oLbnpkxok oSiaqjdoi o

Empoleon and Vaporeon soften Spheal for Ryhorn to Bulldoze. Conkeldurr takes a trip on an Ice Floe. 

Gjuxfdxh oFrw9czlg oTzelxg9f oWd3laq15 oYf0yl9rz o

Ryhorn misses a bulldoze and Vaporeon wipes out a Duskull, also items. 

Av2lejqy o62ashc83 oTfv5f2jx oRgfevkiv o

Wa1lhldb o

Ryhorn lands his Bulldoze and we grab some more items.

Avh4qavn oVkvaf7az oBrauqrmn oMm3cctzg oRz9ycjhw o

We grab some more stuff and Ryhorn closes in on the last enemy. 

72pl6miv oG54ywq4f oBny3zzw7 oX6qdbjfm o

We grab everything and...

4kqfkptp oCnw09r2e o

That's a wrap. 

Rvkkrkzd oN0j9wdab o

Some nice stuff here. 

Zq9tq2df oGhso1nhu oGxwg1g4k oQtxl6fil o

Rhydon Time.

Vlxa3eit o

Rhydon is pretty darn good, its power and bulk are great and it doesn't have Rhyperior's ass-bad Range or Move. Drill run is like Gyro ball but not horrible. Its strong and has a high critrate. If you play right Ryhorn can move 3 times as far as Rhyperior in 1 turn. See now how bad Rhyperior is?

I2k5dx8m oMngbf5eo oNribnrgy o

Onward to Spectra.

 

Reset Counter: 1 Oichi (Jigglypuff)

 

 

Death Counter 2: Rikyu (Darumaka)                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 Takatora (Charmeleon)

Boy am I glad to finally have this out. I still intend on completing this LP (for the main game at least) but don't expect updates frequently, as I'm currently busy with college stuff. There probably won't be another update until at least October, but as can be seen from the 7 month hiatus, I'm not too good at keeping a schedule. 

Until next time folks, stay buttery.

Well that sucks. Luxray, why?

Also, maybe Hop's exempt due to having a legendary. Barry's also really solid in the end, especially with Infernape.
