What do you think of my team for the final 4? I feel like it’s too performative, like I’m larping too much vibes idk
>>735899113>I feel like it’s too performativeWho gives a shit? If you like your team, that's all that mattersHorrible fucking thread
>>7358991130/10Should be all Raticates.
>>735899113Kys
What does performative mean anymore
>horribly uneven levels>multiple flying types>no early game encounters except the starter>freshly caught legendaryCome on anon you can do better>>735899383Doing things for the sake of showing off that you're doing it rather than actually enjoying it
>>735899113>all freebies except the pseudo-legendary
>>735899536>"pseudo-legendary"Made-up fan autism
>>735899113>his vaporeon is male
>>735899536I used the master ball to catch it so it was a free Pokemon too
Is my team performative?
>>735899763>nicknamesAutomatically performative.
>>7358991133x flying lol. Your team is cool, but I can never justify charizard when arcanine is in the game (yes even pre physical/special split) and I cannot justify blastoise when starmie and gyarados are in the game.Here is my current fav team. The usual rules: no legendaries, no trade evos, only Mons from your current region, set mode.
>>735899113It's a very good team. I respect the use of Dragonite always.
>>735899113Why does vaporeon have more hp than anything else? Is that normal? Never used him
My go to team:CharizardDragoniteVaporean RaichuNidoking Snorlax
>>735899113If you have to ask if your performance is impactful, you're not even a good performer. Why worry about it? Doesn't sound like vibes idk to me, son.
>>735901486>RaichuBased
I'm rounding out the levels on mine so they're all 50 or higher then will do the Elite FourRate me
>>735899763trade evos are as performative as it getsrock the haunter or gtfo
>>735899113>Dragonite.>Charizard.>Snorlax.>A fucking legendary.You are the blandest fucker alive.>>735900936>>735901486You fuckers too.
>>735899113I like your team :)
>>735901904Pervert/10
>>735899113Whatever gets you there big guy.Looks like a pretty standard endgame team.
>>735899113why are you playing goyshit? at least play a romhack god damn
>>735899113which game is this? All the UIs of the pokemon games blend togetherFRLG?
>>735899113>aerodactylyou're cool
>>735902162They're mindless consumers that bought the switch version.
>>735902162Judging by the Pokémon I'm assuming fire red yeah.
>>735902219It doesn't even come with the nice colored cartridge>>735902250Dang you can even pick up on which version it is, that's impressive
My last FR run that I played last year
>>735902219OP pic doesn't look like the Switch version. It has the yellow tint that the Switch version lacks.
>>735902219>bought the switch versionHoe, the things that you’ve lied about
>>735899113You are fine, that looks like my team when I was 10.
The game can be beaten by a tackle-spamming level 100 caterpie with a bit of consumables. The team composition is frankly irrelevant gameplay-wise.That said>Aerodactyl>Zapdos>Snorlax You're pretty cool.
>>735902298>namefagEugh>Without, nidokingYou're alright namefag, but rules is rules, off to the filter with you
>>735902298Do you have a weezing called "The Fume"?
I last did VenasaurMagmarMagnetonPoliwrathClefableAerodactylI tried to use ones I don't normally use.
>>735902412>The game can be beaten by a tackle-spamming level 100 caterpie with a bit of consumables. The team composition is frankly irrelevant gameplay-wise.No shit captain obvious, the point is personal expression via team building
>>735899113You lowkirkenuinly have too many flying-types.
>>735901904Those names are fucking embarrassing
Playing a remake of Emerald with (almost) the entire dex availableThis is what I got so far, definitely replacing the Pelipper later, maybe the starter too, but I'm not sure what will be replacing them. Kinda want an electric type. Suggestions welcome.
>>735902476>Oh, God, what is it? It won't move! There's no nerves in there!That would have been a perfect addition but Koffing is too late an encounter when I already have Nidoking as a poison type
>>735902625>no names at allCritical lack of soul
>>735902630I weep when I see nugen shitmons forced into the classics
>>735899113Why do pokefags get to post anywhere on 4channel when they already have a dedicated board?
>>735902710I hate Drayano hacks for this reason. Completely robs the region of its personality
>>735902630The ayyy lmao saucer>>735902710There like 5 or so salvageable designs
>>735899113I never worry about having legs or high tiers in my party. If I like them, I like them and I don't apologize.>>735899272This guy gets it!this is my team for the elite 4 and I get rekt by Lorelei already let alone any one further. I don't know if it's FR or the hack but damn they are much more harder than I recall. I mean that as in I don't remember needing to grind to go against them but it seems in this case I might have to
>>735902625>names aren't in all capsNot really one to talk if you're not gonna embrace the all caps naming of earlier gens
>>735902710>letting the shittiness of the new games make you unable to appreciate cool new designs or the gameplay options they come withmay as well just stop paying attention to the franchise if you're going to reject everything new about it
>>735899113Go all in and switch out vaporeon and snorlax for gyarados and a bird
>>735902767Subjects are allowed on multiple boards as long as they are considered suitably relevant, this is true unless specifically stated (an example of this being specifically stated is /mlp/, see Rule 15 of the Global Rules "All pony/brony threads, images, Flashes, and avatars belong on /mlp/.")Pokemon games can be discussed on /v/ because they're games, the Pokemon anime can be discussed on /a/ because it's an anime etc. This is the intended interpretation of the rules. There is no distinction in the rules stating otherwise and that's intentional.
>>735902710holy shit I clapped when I saw KANTOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>735899113Acting like you're being performative is performative
>>735902953That's precisely what I've been doing for the last 15 years.
>>735902806>>735899763What rom is this?
>>735902806Yeahhhh, that's right I was gonna get rid of the Pelipper for a Sharpedo, thought about doing it earlier but forgotWanted to go Kilowattrel for my flying type, but I can't find it anywhere
>>735903051He says in a thread about playing games in the series.
>>735903114Yes, the game that came out 20 years ago.
>>735902625the names are fineexcept the LegendaryLegendary Pokemon should be as they are(imo)
>>735902953>>735903002Always forget when you wade into this threads you have to deal with underages.>>735903114Pokemon FR/LG is 20+ years old
Last Pokemon game I played was Gaia, went with a space/lunar themed teamI really should get back into it some time. Have any good new hacks come out in the last few years?
>>735899113r8 h8 masturb8
>>735902326Holy fucking BASEDPaypigs BTFO
>>>/vp/
I soloed the elite 4 with only a level 100 charizard. (Had lots of health restores, but that's beside the point).
My current Alpha Sapphire team:Alpha (Swampert)Rafael (Technician Breloom)Bandit (Belly Drum Linoone)LayZ (Slaking)Captain(M-Altaria with Pixilate)and Latias on the side as my flier since the team is fine enough with just the five
If you've ever used a legendary in any capacity you didn't beat the game.
My team from my last playthrough, plain LeafGreen.
>>735903605Na you're meant to use your Legendary Beast in Pokemon FRLG Round 2, alongside your started and 4 other Pokémon you didn't use the first time around.
>>735903605you can beat the game with a magikarp why bother gatekeeping difficulty in pokemon of all things?just use whatever you think looks cool
>>735899113>4 flying pokemon whatever I guess I just use my favorites. MagmarDelibirdPrimeapeClefableMiltankWartortle
>>735903813It just doesn't sit right with me. Even as a kid I knew it was some bullshit. It's not fair me blowing the arse out of some trainer's Pidgey with a Groudon or some other godlike being. It's like when Gary Oak got battered by that Mewtwo at Giovanni's gym. At the end of the day it's just wrong. I will beat the Elite Four with my carefully curated gallery of shitmons who I have raised over the weeks and months. The way god intended.
My team from my last run of Pokémon Yellow was>Starmie>Tauros>Exeggutor>Dugtrio>Slowbro>JynxR8.>Inb4 4 Psychic typesWho cares, it has no weaknesses in gen 1.
>>735903284I think I can tell almost all and most of these but what is the top middle, top right, and bottom left one?
>>735902843it's a rom hack that auto cases the names
>>735899113>>735901904>>735902298>not boxing your starterngmi
>>735904176>Yellow>No PikachuYou didn't beat the game
>>735902325Good eye.>>735902326I'm sorry..
>go through early game with Nidoan, Pikachu, and Squirtle line>having fun>Intend to catch a growlithe and doduo when I can>do so>gotta raise up 2 pokemon that are like 8 levels weaker than the rest of my team>both lose horrifically to trainers I skipped on route 8 and die in like 2 smogs >fun plummets>can't cope with good game corner TMs because those take either $90k for ONE, or you gotta hit FIFTEEN FUCKING JACKPOTSI'm convinced having a full team is a spook.
>>735899113It's a kids game, it really doesn't matter, unless your IQ is so low that you don't understand type effectiveness or if your autism is so severe that you need a certain group in the hall of fame.
>>735904302Boxed the rat as soon as NidoranM showed up.
>>735899383this but larping
>>735899763>>735903079This one is Pokemon Glazed. The other is something different
>>735902625>No nicknames.>No starter.>No legendaries.>Unique picks.Pure soul.
>>735904336>Get growlithe>Doesn't learn flamethrower until level fucking 50>Like this until gen 4>The shit you ran into with the game corner coinswhy did they do this
this is the team i used to beat elite 4 rematch with, i got them up to like 60 before i did it
>>735904551>Nkekdid you actually get any usage out of it or did you just train it with exp sharecool team even if you die to fire
can't remember if this is my most current team or notbeen taking a break to play lots of other vidya
>>735904551>Unown NNow i wonder if you can get full coverage with 6 different hidden powers
I wanted to use Pokemon I’ve never really used before and I did outside Alakazam and Nidoking. Alakazam is always my ace whenever I can use abra in a playthrough, that goes without saying and Nidoking is just too cool not to use
>>735904336Been playing with a Persian this time and it's actually hilarious how good Pay Day is on a Gen 3 playthrough.>each Payday gives you 5x the Pokemons level in money>Lv. 30 gives you 150>Persian is fast and gets STAB so two or three- hit KOs are common, so basically 300 - 450 $ for every Pokemon you beat with it>at Lv. 50 this scales to 250 per hitI have enough coins for Porygon saved up without even trying.
>>735904336The game corner slots all come down to timing, as long as you time it right you can hit it consistently. A trick I used was to tap my thumb whenever the 7 was about to hit and hit the A button at the same time, made it way easier for some reason
>>735899383>>735904378nothing, words have less and less meaning and it's gen z's fault
>>735904114I'm more inclined to use legendaries now than I used to be because even fan games are scared of giving you access to them despite putting them on gym leader teams and shit. Kinda sick of having this cool Pokemon dangled in front of me on the promo art and title screen and then I barely get to fucking use it. If the game devs are worried about the game becoming too easy, they should buff the trainers accordingly instead of restricting access to the cool shit. IDGAF.
>>735904114If God didn't intend for you to use legendaries he wouldn't have made them available
>>735903746>paintbrushI like that
>>735904189Haxorus, Octillery and Metagross respectively.
>>735903605>>735904114box legendaries are too much, but shit like zapdos or regirock is fine
>>735905068Power creep is such that none of the pre gen 6 box legendaries are all that good anymore aside from Kyogre, Groudon and Ho-Oh. Maybe Zekrom if we want to stretch it
>>735899113>I’m larping too much vibesOn God blud skibidi?It's fine. You should mostly pick the ones you want to use without worrying if they're the strongest.
>>735904683>FightingNormalRockIceSteelDark>GroundElectricFirePoison>Ghost or DarkGhostPsychic>IceGrassFlyingDragonGround>FlyingBugFighting>GrassWaterThat is every single type... before Fairy was added. So the answer is yes, if there's no Fairy type.
>>735905068Zapdos is one of the best pokemon you can use in kanto, that fucker is absurd. He easily got me more value than the likes of Palkia.
>>735904641the hidden power was ice so it actually got some decent hits in before dying on a couple enemiesyeah i chose my team by RNG
>>735905451I remember dicking around with how open Kanto is and grabbing Zapdos before fighting Erika. Drill Pecking her gym was silly fun.
>>735905068even among non-box legends there's a ton of varianceon one hand you have dudes like regirock and mesprit that are straight up outclassed by regular mons, and on the other you have shit like azelf or terrakion that are crazy strong and trivialize the game
>>735899113Is this a nuzlocke? Everybody seems underleveled.If you're talking about FRLG, it should be fine. Zapdos should take care of Lorelei and Bruno, anyone with Crunch/Psychic could take on Agatha, and Ice Beam kills most of Lance's team. The levels feel pretty low, especially since the enemies will be around Lv.60. So good luck.>>735902827Who even has Thunderbolt on that team? It looks like everybody is either water-weak, ice-weak, or just a water type themselves.
>>735905451Yeah, Zapdos may have survived power creep better than most mons, but it's still Palkia-tier good. Palkia has the same or better in every single stat value. It may not be keeping up with newer box legends but it is very much still banned like all the rest of them except Zamazenta
>Overlevel starter and spam flamethrower.>Shit bricks when that doesn't work.Oh yeah, now we're gaming.
>>735899601>pattern recognition is autism how low is your IQ?
my planned FireRed team, what'cha think?
>>735906020>Taking too super defensive Pokemon and trying to make them offensive>giving King's Rock to an extremely slow Pokemon that is unlikely to be able to take advantage of it>Dragon STAB in gen 2Honestly? Based
>>735906152Snorlax over bumros
>>735905950It's not even powercreep, Zapdos is ridiculous in both gen 1 and 3. Even playing the game 'correctly', you'll get Zapdos at level 50 after Koga but before Sabrina, and have like 10+ levels on everything while you stomp through the back half of the game. Box legendaries you typically don't get until after the game is nearly done anyways. It's not like you have Rayquaza to help you take out Winona or Reshiram to help you with Clay.
heres mine before beating the 8th gym i will probably rape him because he has a rain team i can fuck up with drought sunflora
>>735903218I beat Pokemon Gaia recently too
>>735906152Gay as fuck.
>>735905797Dragy has it. But yeah you're right about the heavy water/ice weakness is probably why Lorelei is rekting me. I'll need to grind some alternatives
First time playing Clover, I will probably replace Dreameme. Karawn is locked in for E4, love that shrimp.
>>735903746Do yall really be abandoning your starters?
>>735906992It's "notice me look at how cool and unique I am" behavior. Anyone with imagination can tell how antithetical it is to shove your first pokemon, received as a gift from a trusted advisor, into a box for eternity.
>>735907074or people just don't want to use the same 3 shillmon in every run
This many posts and not one screenshot of an Iron Kaizomon team?
>>735907123Using the word "shillmon" in any context other than Lucario or Zoroark immediately puts you in that category.
>>7358991138/10, ironically the only good team in the entire thread.
>>735902024Zapdos is the shit
>>735906237Not him but going all offense regardless of the mon is just something we all did when we were kids and you don't really grow out of.Especially since bulky mons are only ever good in PvP or post game battle facility. Going hyper offense in game is normal.
>>735899113Giga normie team out of 10>Used starter>legendary mon>eeveelution>FOUR FLYING TYPESApply yourself
>>735899536I'm pretty sure you can buy a Dratini in the Game Corner.
>>735906992Using starter is boring, they all do roughly the same thing in game.
>>735907278nigger I want to use my favorite pokemon not gamefreak's favorite pokemonwhat don't you understand?
>>735904114>over the weeks and monthsYou can beat Gen 1 in one day, the fuck are you talking about?
My current team in polished crystal isAlakazam, Mantine, Yanmega, Electivire, Magcargo and AmbipomAmbipon baton passing nasty plots and agilities is the name of the game
>>735907438What's wrong with flying types?
>>735907074Are you as big of a dick sucker as you sound or less?
>>735907435Not really. I've used Ferrothorn sometimes in single player just as it's used in PVP and it kinda feels better than just trying to spam attacks. Half the time I'm not oneshotting anything, so just sitting there spamming spikes while my opponent cuts himself to death trying to attack me definitely has an entertainment value to it
The fact you made a thread about it is by definition performative.
>>735903605i'll hack 6 Rayquazas in, fuck you
>>735907438Starter hate is boring. Everyone in these threads has played these games multiple times, we've all boxed starters. It ends up circling back to being interesting to use them after you haven't in a while.
>>735906992I have used Bulbasaur, Squirtle and Charmander a fuckton of times, I'm not going to always keep them nowadays. I used Charizard in my Crystal playthrough before this one, anyway.
>>735907629Based monotype enjoyer. (Steel and Bug runs myself)
>>735907627It feels good having a boosting move and being able to pull a cheeky 6-0. I use Breloom to Spore and then try pulling off a Nasty Plot on my special sweeper Lucario
>>735907629>Empoleon>Blaziken>Decidueye>flying typesdid you think we wouldn't notice you being a poser?
>>735907774This.
>>735907942they're birds idiot
>>735907629If you go all in with 6 then I respect it.4 just shows lack of creativity
>>735907973NTA but Decidueye and Noctowl are Owls, not Birds
RBY team, it would be completely different if it was FRLG, but to be honest, I don't like the remakes.
>>735901904Hater is a Primape. Nice touch.
Asking the question is performative. Playing with whatever you feel like playing is not.
Any team member recommendations? These double battles are starting to ramp up quite a bit at times, but still enjoyable.
It's been forever but I still remember my Silver team fondlyTyphlosionHoundoomAmpharosSuicuneLugiaTyranitarIt was perfect for taking out Red which I enjoyed immensely Tyranitar earthquake > PikachuHoundoom crunch > EspeonAmpharos thunder > BlastoiseTyphlosion fire blast > VenusaurSuicune hydro pump > CharizardLugia all in > SnorlaxStill one of my most kino childhood Pokemon memories.
current team in perfect crystal. why did i never bother playing a gen 2 romhack before?
>>735909049>gyaradosis that the red one?
The best monsters.
>male Vaporeon>level disparity of 15 between highest and lowest level pokemon>most of the team gets fucked up by Rock-typesHorrible.
this was my hg team but it really had a bad time against red.
>>735909049>why did i never bother playing a gen 2 romhack before?You have to start getting tired of vanilla first.Also my last FR run, used a randomizer this time.
>>735909252Yeah watch out for those elite four rock types.
>>735909132nah caught it as a magikarp off the old rod as my 3rd pokemon after pidgey>>735909308true pokemon is much better and has more longevity when you blast through it at 2000% speed
>>735909350>Lance's Aerodactyl used Rock Tomb!>Lance's Aerodactyl used Rock Tomb!>Lance's Aerodactyl used Rock Tomb!>Lance's Aerodactyl used Rock Tomb!Oops, your team of underleveled jobbers fainted. Don't even bother with Trainer Tower, lmao
>>735909049Most ROMhacks tend to be mixed bags when in comes to many features. They can add a lot of bullshit to make the entire experience more strenous.
>>735909580Yeah, it's strange how there's not more fan stuff that simply aims to have everything from the official games, disables tedious bullshit like IVs/EVs, and makes battles somewhat more difficult but no high ladder mind game autism. There's always shit missing (only a handful of fan games even include gen 9 mons at this point, and even less include Tera), there's always some OC fakemons or types or abilities or shit as if we don't already have enough to deal with in the main games and actually want to learn about some rando's fanfic ideas. I want OC when it comes to locations and quest design, not when it comes to gameplay. I wouldn't be playing a Pokemon fangame if I wanted to use fake Pokemon and made up battle systems
how do I make a single type team without just copying the same moveset 6 times? I want to larp as a dragon tamer but idk what to do besides dragon dance outrage or dragon claw. also what is the best game to have this exact team? it would have to be emerald I think if I want the rayquaza legit, or oras if I want it with dragon ascent, but I heard oras was shit.
>>735899113>zapdosyou arent going to beat the game
>>735899113>Male Vaporeon
>>735910553idk nigger most dragon types learn moves of almost every type figure it outGyarados doesn't really learn dragon moves though, and Altaria is more of a defensive mon you'll probably want to use to spam status effects and shitFlygon gets First Impression and can use Stealth Rock and STAB Earthquake so it has shit like that going for itThe other three are all pretty redundant with each other though yeah
>>735899113This is the opposite of performative but it’s not like you have too many options in Gen 1 games.
>>735910659>87.5% MaleFemale Eevee not worth the hassle.
>>735900936Venusaur is useless late game. Drop the starters man.
>>735911008
Okay /v/ I'm going to do one run of Emerald's Battle Factory choose the team of the first round for meFirst trainer is a Grass specialist, no phrase otherwise.Need 3 out of the 6 in this image.
>>735899113>No nicknamesJust restart man.
>>735911130>3 water types and 1 grass type>grass specialistI guess Azumarill with Huge Power Façade can do something as opposesed to the other 3. Butterfree and Togetic are no brainers.
>>735911012Venusaur can singlehandedly shut down both Lorelei and Bruno even without its Mega Evolution or Chlorophyll. Hell, it can still mow over the rest with Sleep Powder if it needs to. If it has its Mega then it'll probably curbstomp whatever anon is playing
>>735899113Don't worry about it. It's pokemon, you can beat the game with practically anything.
>>735910659Just get him with a Ditto.
>>735899113>pokemon in the big 25Underage or manchild, call it.
>>735911379You never know what you can find after battle one so going all in on countering grass first battle might not be the best but let's go with that.I'd take screenshots but I'm playing it on an actual gba.
>>735911518anon its 2026
>>735904821Every single gen z slang word is just a synonym for a term that already exists, it's really not difficult to figure out.
>>735911518Still like the franchise. Just don't like it's current state and the fact that you need to pay premium price for this trash. Romhacks are free and you can pick and chose the ones with the additions you like.
>>735899828If you don't nickname your pokemon you are unironically playing the game wrong according to Gamefreak
>>735899468>no early game encountersHow is this a bad thing?
Should i be angry?
>>735911843Means either excessive swapping out/boxing team members(soulless) or using exclusively the starter(also soulless)He'd have had Charmander up until Celadon city where he could finally get Eevee for Vaporeon. Then Snorlax after doing the game corner hideout and the Pokemon tower quest for Mr Fuji.Aerodactyl and Zapdos aren't until you get Surf and Dragonite isn't until Fuchsia
>>735899113>too preformativewhat the fuck does that even mean?
>>735912047>Means either excessive swapping out/boxing team members(soulless)>anon's fw someone collects monsters in monster collecting games
>>735901904>custom pokemon namesi fucking despise this shit
>>735912047There's nothing wrong with catching an early game crutch to help get past the first two gyms. That's the perfect way for a bug type to shine. I used a Dustox during my last Platinum run for Gardenia.
W2, FireRed, LE
>>735907774>>735907968What can you even do then?
>>735912174I've done collector runs where I use a rotating squad of 12 or so mons but that's only viable in the games that have team wide exp share. Doesn't really feel right to do in earlier gens>>735912218You gotta take that bro to the end game for all their help. Not like the games are particularly hard anyway
>>735912194What? You mean nicknames?>>735911818
>>735912328I rewarded him for his efforts by putting him in a contest before boxing him :)
>>735912194I know that there are a million Pokemon players that have their own preferences but I'll be honest with you man, "I despise nicknames" is a fascinating one to me. I can't think of a single reasonable reason to despise someone using the naming feature that has been in the game since the start and completely fits the tone of the series intention to have you get personally connected to the creatures. To be clear, if you don't want to do it yourself that's 1000% fine. But you said you despise that others do it.
>>735913397Every time I play >Clover I catch a Piguson and name it Ham Vimes.
>>735912047you can buy dratini with casino coins
>>735913397It’s animefags, a lot of people see the games as like an extension of the anime and they don’t really use nicknames in anime
>>735913518That makes even less sense. I don't see why that would make you hate when other people do it, and also people use nicknames in the anime sometimes too.

>>735906020>didn't teach it thunder punchNGMI
>>735913897They do it when it’s a character who has the same Pokemon as a main character to avoid confusion but they don’t otherwise. There is a shadow that hangs over western Pokemon discussion I call “real Pokemon” where a lot of people can’t appreciate it as a game
What about mine? I'm too lazy to nickname my Mon's.
>>735899113>4 flying typesbased
>>735914527Damn ur high level

>>735914739You playing on actual hardware or using emulator stuff? I never beat round 2 stadium as a kid, I’m sure I could now but I don’t feel particularly compelled.
>>735914875actual hardware
I can't believe there are people that actually like Dragonite.Why would you want to use Charizard's gay cousin that looks like Barney and ruins the Dratini line?
>>735914923
PLEASE RESPOND TO MY POST! No, i'm not telling you which one it is...

>>735899113Using your starter is lame and gay. I went through the entirety of Leaf Green after boxing mine as soon as I could.
I've mainly been trying out teams where everything is the same typing. It's been kind of fun, even if dying to anything with so much as Fire Fang got annoying. At least the Water/Psychic team had Slowking and Slowbro where I could keep switching for Regenerator healing.

Behold, my RB team
>>735915878If Dragonite is so good how come Lance can't beat my Charizard and Gyarados, HUH?
My main 5 of level 100. No sixth member level 100 yet...
>>735913518Wrong, why would I give a nickname to a mon if I'm just looking to beat the game and so forth? That wastes time. I only give nicknames in a Nuzlocke run.
>>735916063>>735916086Might as well post the other one too.
>>735915724Sorry but it's changed since then. Didn't want a second steel type hogging Foretress's spotlightgranted now I have two dragon types, but eh, they're different enoughStill want to replace the starter even if you can't beat The Cock. Thinking about Slowking-G or Weezing-G if I can find it. I want a poison type
>>735899383I assume it's just the new "tryhard."

>>735915693your mother will die in her sleep tonight unless you respond to this post with "I just lost the game"
>>735917781TELSON, my favourite Pokémon.
>>735918428You mean the character who explicitly has the same mons as Ash and has to have nicknames to distinguish them
>>735916176>That wastes time.If you have time to play Pokemon you have time to give them nicknames
>>735899113Seems like overkill, frankly.Like, a level 56 dragonite can solo the Elite four.
Haven't played pokemon since leaf green, what's the best one to continue on with?
>>735922874Platinum.
>>735922874platinum, HGSS or black/white
>>735922967>>735923267Alright thanks bros
This my team going into island 5
>>735923401wrong pic my bad
I was going to play Pokemon Yellow for the first time with a crit team but you can not get Persian or Raichu so I guess I'm never playing Yellow version. Back to Blue it is then.
>>735923469>MaligoreFace it, the Turbo movie sucked and so did Turbo. Space was kino though.
I gained some levels since earlier..
>>735899113I just used a Charizard, that's it. You don't really need a balanced team.
>>735913397They're fucking cringe thats why. Like I genuinely don't care what you do with your own game, but if you can't tell why naming your Voltorb "Timmy" or your Pidgey some shit like "Odin" is cringe, then i don't know what to tell ya.
>>735901904Why is CC stuck as a Gloom? Also>4 Justice>1 Advent>1 Mythtriggers my autism.
>>735899113>Highest level mon is 15 levels higher than your lowest level monThis irritates me
>>735929414I'm glad somebody called him out on it.
>>735915057I just think he's neat.>ruins the Dratini line?Dragonair doesn't have arms to hug you with, it sucks.
>>735899113>4/6 flying types>5th is resisted by rock What's your plan if vaporeon goes under? Just get fucking team wiped anything that learns rock tomb?
>>735910553Use other Type moves, dumbass. One move for primary Type, one move for secondary type, and different-Typed coverage moves or support moves.
>>735932652What about STAB?
my Blue Team...
Is there a way to edit the results from the Joyful Game Corner games using ACE?
Playing SoulSliver for the first time and just beat Clair with this team. Planning on using it on the elite four.Few self rules I do. No items in battle. Set battle mode. Mostly only gen 2 pokemon (exception being red gyarados)
My last johto team. Espeon sucks but I couldn't find a good replacement that I liked. Only Feraligatr had a nickname (Johnny)
>>735935417Forgot pic like a retard

Is my Pokémon team performative?CorviknightBlisseyUnaware DondozoUnaware Clodsire GliscorRegenerator Alomomola
>>735936243Yeah, you don't care about those mons, you just want to come off as an asshole stall player to bait people
>>735899113Played a romhack that allowed for pre-E4 cross gen evos. Dodrio really surprised me with how effective he was, while Rhydon was just excruciatingly slow even with the explosive strength. Loved them all, Gen 3 is simply comfy all-round.
>>735936635What romhack?
>>735936635>Rhydon>Not RhyperiorDid it include anything from later gens? If so, what's the point? Just the vanilla game but it lets you do trade evos?
>>735933528disgusting
>>735936635Dodrio is really solid. Drill peck, return and quick attack put in work and he's got good stats to go with it. Gets outclassed in a lot of other regions but Kanto games he keeps up great
>>735936727>>735936821FRLG+ which was primarily just QoL changes while keeping the base game mostly intact with extra content post game. I don’t typically enjoy romhacks that stray too far from the source material, but that’s just my own autism.
>>735936727Can't you just tick the national dex check box in PKHeX?(I don't actually know so I'm asking)
>>735904336It always annoyed me that Pokemon has never even tried to solve this problem over the course of 30 years, you're just always meant to hit a point where you find a mon you want that's about 10 levels too low to be useful and babysit it until eventually you can use it in normal fights. It blows
>>735937127>It always annoyed me that Pokemon has never even tried to solve this problem over the course of 30 yearsThey did though. The party-wide experience share. But of course, everyone bitches about it making you overleveled instead.
>>735904336>raising 2 pokemon is a big deal to zoomerslol, don't ever play romhacks where you'll have to egg + ability + nature hunt your whole team.
>>735937113I wouldn't do that, it's not that simple. If you want to have the National Dex immediately at the start and nothing else, I recommend using the Universal Pokémon Randomizer.
This was a LeafGreen hack but the only change is a workaround for trade evolutions. Which I didn't end up using time anyway.
>>735936980Its occasional Tri-Attack status hax are always fun, too. People meme on Kantooooo but the variety and progression of Pokemon available there is still one of the best in the series. The trainers themselves unfortunately all use the same garbage over and over.
>>735937802Based Queen. What kind of moveset did you run?
>been replaying Pokemon games and currently on Y version>been trying to use only mons that are from that gen>trying to use only Kalos mons and no megasGonna be tough when I get to PLA and ZA
>>735937928>the variety and progression of Pokemon available there is still one of the best in the series>3 normal/flying families>Only three grass types that aren't also part poison type, all of which are shitmons>only one ghost and dragon type family>a gorillion water and normal types
>>735938115Sinnoh seems pretty rough too if crossgen evos are excluded. Who the hell has ever used a Wormadam?
>>735899113Too many flying types. You're playing a baby game for babies, so you shoud be fine, but that team would crumble to ice, rock, and electric attacks if you were facing a real challenge.
>>735938256I've always wanted to use a Mothim but I'm pretty sure it sucks ass in Gen IV and only gets things like Quiver Dance in later gensFor Sinnoh I just had 2 HM slaves on my team anyway. It was honestly one of my less favorite runs out of those. Not even as good as Black1. Probably on par with FRLG imo
>>735936945I'm going to start over a new game anyway since I have to get the other starters to my Gold save file.
>>735937957>Double Kick>Body Slam>Mega Punch>Aerial AceI wanted to make a good balance between her moveset from the webcomic and actually having the ability to fight everything in a practical sense without constantly running out of PP, hence having to teach Aerial Ace to deal with Ghosts. I could've used Flamethrower instead to be more lore accurate but I already had AA in my inventory and it felt appropriate enough, plus it was useful for Grass and Fighting. Also that's just a screenshot from immediately post E4 and Gary, I did obviously need an HM slave team to get through the game. They ended up soaking up EXP from switchouts since stat debuffs are annoying and I didn't want to burn all my money on Guard Specs until the end of the game.
>>735938256For real. I stopped playing the official games at Platinum, partly because of just how bad its regional dex is. Apart from the starters, box legends, Garchomp and the cross gen evos it has...uhhh... Toxicroak, I guess?And even half the cross-gen evos are fucking trash. No one unironically uses the likes of Lickilicky, Probopass or Dusknoir
>>735905797>>735906887??? its literally one mon weak to water and one mon weak to ice
I don't use dragonite because it looks like shit.
>>735899113Youre gonna get fucked up, lil nigga. Damn imagine not having at least one level 60 at this point in the game
>>735938246I genuinely have no real problem with any of that, except the lack of non poison grass types. Many of the water mons like Cloyster, Starmie, Slowbro and Gyarados all stand out in their own way and offer good options for any team. You get good fossils, the safari zone has a wide selection, and most other types are decently covered if you want to use them.
>>735938657kek wait forgot ttareither way you have blastoise as a switch for any water/ice and articuno to take water/ice neutrally and umbreon who's whole point is to be a brick wall to everything
>>735938738>Nidoking, Alakazam, Gengar, ZapdosYou are my nigga.
>>735899468>multiple flying typesThat’s not a bad thing, birds are cool
>>735906152This was literally my last team except with Snorlax instead of Tauros. Thick Club Marowak is unironically one of the funnest mons I ever used in a playthrough.
>>735906152Anger point Tauros my beloved
>>735937318I played both yellow and fire red growing up, it was much easier as a kid when I had infinite time and also didn't have any knowledge of what was good or bad.Also, I did play romhacks too, and they at least give you exp boosts and fix the movesets so you aren't embering for 26 fucking levels.
>>735938256>Who the hell has ever used a Wormadam?I did. Turns out the nearly any other choice was better. Escavalier, Scizor, Mega Golisopod, and even Durant were better options. It could learn Rain Dance to try to lesson fire damage, but wasn't fast enough to use it before getting hit.
>>735938256>Sinnoh seems pretty rough too if crossgen evos are excluded.Why are you excluding the crossgens then autist?
>>735912047>tripfag>retarded
>>735899113You need a better point guard if you expect to beat Duke and win the championship.
always dump your starter
>>735899113what are you 10? yeesh
>>735899113Aero, Snore and Nite are good.-for Vapore and ZapLegendaries for anything is lame and Vapore became coomer bait for some reason. No comment on Zard.
my team in Crystal. Im going to Lake of Rage. I need the Fire Stone for Growlithe, where do i find it?
>>735942751>Why are you excluding the crossgens then autist?Sinnoh did, until you beat the Elite 4. Just playing the games the way they were intended.
>>735947312You really, really do not want to know the answer to that.
>>735899113who cares, you're about to be done with your $20 shovelware
>>735899763>BorkReminds me too much of that faggot judge Robert Bork
>>735899113>using legendariesDisgusting.
>>735947312Just gameshark it. Not cheating, its just some things to get are stupid and not waiting post-game for.
>>735949084i knew in GS you get it at Bill's house after the league, but i tought in Crystal they changed this
>I WANNA KNOW WHAT THE COOMERS ON /V/ THINK ABOUT...Don't know what those cuck faggots think, but I know you're one also.
>>735949493Apparently, Schoolboy Alan (Route 36) can randomly call you up and give you a Fire Stone. So not likely, but it's a lot better than waiting until Kanto to see one.
rate um
>>735928520Because the Sun Stone is only available in post-game. Justice is the main theme, Mori is there because Gigi, Nerissa is there because Liz.
>>735949863all fine but I really hate electrode, such a dumb design
>>735949863Is this an Explosion team?
>>735899113Gen 1 teams just feel like that. Gen 1 and 4 I really struggle to make unique teams
>>735947312also, who should i put in team once i'll get Crobat? Pidgey is there only for Fly. I was thinking about Magneton or a Grass pokemon
>>735951403A ground type like Donphan should help round out the team, and give you an electric immunity. Water - Flying - Ground is a nice core and you have two weak to electric but no resists. Magneton or a Grass-type would as resists as well, but they can't necessarily do as much back in return.
>>735951658Damn, right, i forgot about Donphan, i even wanted to use it at the start of the run
