Fun facts: Falkner originally also had a Pidgeot on his team, so he was originally supposed to be the hardest Gym Leader in the game! Even harder than Whitney with her Miltank! (Spaceworld 99 Demo)
>betashitwhy should I care
>>56106762Why are you posting like this in every new thread?
>>56106758That Pidgeot has Mud Slap, so not even Geodude/Onyx strategy would work.
>>56106791Jesus, how would a kid beat that? I think they should have given him a Natu or even a Skarmory but a Pidgeot has overwhelming stats for the first gym.
>>56106824Just download a Spaceworld 99 demo and test this "very difficult fight"!
>>56106758Miltank mogs Pidgeot so hard its not even funny. Pidgeot is a sub470 shitmon with no moves. Noctowl can at least screw you up with Hypnosis since sleep is cracked, Fuck, Murkrow hits harder than it on both ends
>>56106831Ok, but Pidgeot stats are far too high for s First gym fight.
>>56106847for a first gym, yeah.
Can someone test the difficult of this fight in his own Spaceworld 99 Rom?
>level 10 pidgeot
I dont get all this distaste of Falkner's difficulty. The only proper comparison we can apply is Brock and Brock's team fucking melts against Squirtle and Nidoran so why make a huge deal when the same thing happens with Falkner. If anything both leaders are difficult when you pick a specific starter so its not a total bust and in general, its just the first gym, chill.
>>56107072>If anything both leaders are difficultman I wish my IQ was as low as the people on this board so I could still find these games fun
>lvl 9 spearow>Lvl 12 pidgeotto>Lvl 14-5 noctowlIs it fixed?
>>56107076i'd say you're about there considering how you completely skipped over my argument for making that point.
>>56107084Sagefag loves immediately reducing your argument to null and void if you at any point ever say anything in a Pokemon game is difficult, which he'll immediately equate to you being a brain damaged retard who has trouble putting the squares in the square hole.
>>56107084>MUH TYPE CHARTagain, I wish my IQ was as low as the people on this board so I could still find these games fun
>>56106758Pidgeot isn't that much stronger than Pidgeotto, I think it barely makes a difference. I would have much preferred it this way, would make Falkner really memorable
>>56107103I thought that was Yawfag's MO more than anything. Especially when people bring up any DS title, although the GameCube titles are up there as well. After all, he's the one that claims Pokemon games are just mash A with your starter. "Sagefag", if such a person exists, would more likely try to defend a game's difficulty by playing like a normal human being instead of a retarded child, given that's how normal humans talk in Yawnfag threads.>>56107122See, that's exactly a Yawnfag style post.
>>56107149I think anon just got the names mixed up since "sagefag" is only ever said by yawnfag in retaliation whenever his name is said. I made that mistake a couple times
>>56107103No, sagefag is very much in the group of people who thinks the older games are difficult because he’s a fucking retard who conflates being terrible at the games and wasting exp with them being difficult.
>>56107162No, sagefag is definitely the guy who has been ruining the board by shitting on every Pokemon game released before 2013. He's really obsessed with posting really shitty comparison images and playing games he supposedly hates constantly just to own people.
>>56107181That's yawnfag, "sagefag" is his imaginary nemesis >>56107160
>>56107187Okay sagefag, trying to make up a nemesis is about as schizo as when you tried to say Gen 6 online worked after April 2024https://archive.palanq.win/vp/thread/56025952/#56032381or that Eternal Floette had an eventhttps://archive.palanq.win/vp/thread/56083943/#56085003Nobody is falling for it sagefag, you're a fucking retard
>>56107122>i am tackling a part of the game with far greater experience than what its the average therefore my argument is trueI bet you're the kind of guy who dabs on pre-schoolers because you can count up to 100. Also getting lucky with screeches means jack shit.
>>56107214Dude you're fucking retarded
>>56107223Just let him go with it, who knows maybe it will piss off Yawnfag to be called the bogeyman he invented
>sagefag and yawnfag schizosDoes it need to be daily? Don't you guys have jobs or friends or anything that would prevent this at least once in a while?
>>56107252/vp/ anons are my friends :)
yawnfag is trying to pass the buck onto his imaginary nemesisunfortunately for that to ever work someone other than him would need to believe sagefag exists, which is never going to happen
>>56107272I dunno, he seems to be getting pissed off in>>56107264So maybe it is working
>>56107272>sagefag doesn't exist guys>yawnfag is totally real thoughlmao
>>56107285correct
nice thread broskis
>namefag obsessed esls
>>56107285I mean, the varied typing styles that supposed "sagefag"s use are less standardized than Yawnfag, I've always been of the mind there's two of them. One of them is extremely retarded and doesn't use capitalization and has really short posts, he's definitely the dud of the pair. The other one attempts to make arguments and uses proper grammar, but he's also just wrong most of the time anyway and will default to being a schitzo and or lying as seen in the posts linked in >>56107214
Falkner's dad will be a superboss in the in the next GS remakes
>>56107301both those linked posts are from yawnfag
>>56106758Depending on the moveset, Whitney would still be worse.>>56106771To show how much he doesn't care.
>>56107329
>>56107341i meant the desuarchive links
>>56107318>she thinks GS is ever getting remade ever again lolLmao even
>>56107329Guess we found the no capitalization dud half of the pair.
>>56107329That's what I mean, there's two different "Yawnfag", one that's probably the original (and is probably in the archived posts) and one left from the genwar discord days. The retarded one is definitely the discord latecomer, which is not surprising given how dumb he seems. In fact, here's some good evidence this post >>56107341 uses capitalization while >>56107122 does not, which accounts for both of them at the moment. You can probably use that to track their movements on the board. It's also possible they're actually one guy and one if just him phoneposting but I like to pretend they have each other because otherwise it's just depressing.
>>56107356He's literally just changing his typing style based on the tone of the post, even I do the same thing. If you're trying guerrilla tactics to piss him off then that's fine I guess but I'm worried you're being legitimately dumb
>>56107356interesting theorywould explain some stuff about the recent BW2 playthrough. if that was all one guy then he would've been posting around the clock and getting about 5 hours of sleep
>>56107368I entirely believe that is in fact what he did
>>56107368Yeah, we know from that thread and >>56107341 that he's from the west coast (that poor man) so we should have an idea of what times he would be on the board.
>>56107380How does that post prove west coast?
>Sand Attack>Double Team>Detect>FlyGood moveset Y/N?
>>56107380Yawnfag is so immersed in 4chan culture and Pokémon that he is 100% a neet so his activity should not need to correlate with timezone, just like mine.
>>56107382Timestamp, there's really no other place he could be from. It is west coast US, Canada, or Mexico, not much else it could be.
Yes
>>56106758Speaking of I am glad Falkner is the only Gym Leader that specializes in a move outside his type and is specifically a move of a Type that counters Flying’s resists while having a guaranteed secondary effect.

>>56107122I love piss
>>56107103You probably are a brain damaged retard if you think anything in a pokemon game is difficult.
>>56108240you are the brain damaged retard who can't understand nuance and relativity
>>56108262What is difficult to you in these games?
>>56108279>t. brain damaged retard
>>56108283I'm just asking a simple question. You're the one saying that there are parts in these games that are difficult. Which parts?
>>56108288>t. brain damaged retard
>>56108288Yesterday I fought the Elite Four in Platinum, which was a nice challenge. I just barely beat Cynthia when we were both down to our last mon. It was still a first try victory, but tense enough that it was satisfying.
>>56108735Same for me but with Diantha in XY
>>56108764I'm glad you had fun with your first Pokémon game, Timmy! It's only getting better from here!
>>56108764Genuinely how? Her strongest Pokemon literally has an ability that doesn't fucking work. Did you catch an entirely new team in Victory Road or something? If so, I guess that makes sense, something like that would probably be the best way to make XY difficult, which is surprising for a game before mandatory EXP All.

>>56108801Huh? Does something in XY prevent Trace from activating?
>>56108798>>56108801NTA, but Mega Gardevoir nearly reverse swept my team since 4 out of 6 mons on my team were weak to one of her moves and Heliolisk sucks ass. I only beat Diantha because my Sylveon didn't get one-shot like everyone else so I could just PP stall it out of Moonblasts. I also had the exp share off the whole game, so my party was only in their low 50's.
>>56108878That's pretty cool, at least. If only all or most of XY could be an experience like that.
I lost to Grant in my XY playthrough he’s very hard if you pick Fennekin
