>>56133947Every time I think "alright, this should go fine", I end up completely underestimating somethingI beat Flannery, but... Goddamn, that was really sweatyFlannery's Torkoal was rather frustrating to deal with, because if it uses Overheat twice, it switches out (one of the few AI quirks is that they will switch if their attacking stat gets dropped too far), and then the sun would come in againI was hoping it would use Rapid Spin which I would lock with Encore (on Azumarill or Quagsire), but it not only went for Clear Smog, but it still used Overheat even in the rain?!Needless to say I quickly had to improvise because the plan was to get Cloyster in to set up Shell Smash and sweepWhich was only really able to do against Blaziken (and I gave it Ice Shard to bypass its Endure shenanigans)I also actually have nothing that resists Talonflame's STABs so I think I just had to let something die, so unfortunately Oricorio did not get to tango with anyoneShout out to Sliggoo though, the bravest little slug there ever was, because with Sap Sipper, its huge Sp Def, Eviolite, and the rain, it actually completely hard walled Volcarona despite how terrifying that can be when it sets up multiple Quiver DancesI can get a gift encounter in Lavaridge Town now, another encounter or two in the desert, then... we fight dad

Really itching to do some kind of Emerald romhack once i'm done with this marathonlocke
>>56216108I've said it before, but... jeeze, that's only halfway through the game?>>56216763Saul seems to be the general MVP of the run.
>>56216763>itching to do some kind of Emerald romhack once i'm done with this Inclement Emerald is great, but trying to Nuzlocke it has been quite brutalThough, there's probably some Emerald ROM hacks out there that lean closer towards vanilla and aren't as tough, since IE also has many stat, movepool, ability, and even some type changes to contend with>>56217526>jeeze, that's only halfway through the game?Oh yeah, and it's just gonna ramp up from here, since every boss from Norman onward will have a Mega Evolution too
This is my team so far. What do you think?I'm so happy that I haven't lost a pokemon in a while on my nuzlocke. Today I beat the sixth gym leader Byron, Hippowdon took out his Magneton, then Tails struggled to take out his Steelix but luckily enough, Avian was able to save the day and finally Jenny defeated his Bastiodon. I think I'm set to not lose this nuzlocke. Their is the matter of Team Galactics Cyrus though.Any advice for the next gym leader Candice? And also since I've recently had all the non ice type pokemon I can find in the snowy area of Sinnoh, this gives me an option to have some ice types. Any ice types I should look out for? I was thinking Weavile and Frosslass but there's also Abomasnow and Mamoswine.Also I didn't know there was a new thread until now.
>>56218041I would think Magmortar could easily deal with her team aside from Froslass. Mamoswine hits hard and has decent bulk, plus Ice Shard let's it hit first with its attack.For future reference, threads reach bump limit at 310 posts on /vp/, then someone makes a new thread once the old thread is close to archiving.
What roms can be played on phone? All mainline games up to gen 7? What about romhacks, are any too big to be played effectively on a phone?
>>56218650I think up to gen 7, but i would imagine the first five gens are easier to emulate.From what i've seen, you can play romhacks on your phone. I don't think romhacks take up that much space even on a phone, XY is 1.7 GB is a comparison.
>>56217541>there's probably some Emerald ROM hacks out there that lean closer towards vanilla and aren't as toughI was actually leaning towards a romhack where you need to look at spreadsheet and calculate pretty much every fight or you wipe. Would be a nice change of pace from the base games where i just wing everything
>>56220356Maybe Drayano's hacks are what you're looking for?
>>56220356Oh, then Inclement Emerald will be just fine, lolOr as the other anon said, Drayano ROM hacksThere's Run and Bun if you really want to play something that's "calc every fight or you lose" but I can imagine that would not only take longer but would be even more stressful, unless that's what you're looking for
This is my team so far. What do you think?Today I started my journey to Snowpoint city and headed into the snowy area which is my favourite area in the game. Because grass is weak to ice, I put Rapunzel in the reserve for now and put Evo back on the team, i then caught a Sneasel that I named FrostBite however I would unfortunately lose Tails to the hail during a fight with a trainer which it's be a while since a pokemon has died and now one has died. I decided to fill the void left by Tails death with FrostBite and I would go on to catch two more ice types, a Snorunt I named Jack and a Snover I named Yeto. I then make it to Snowpoint city.Any advice for the next gym leader Candice?
>>56222316Magmortar and Wravile should be enough to deal with Candice's team, I would also try to go in with mons that aren't weak to ice or ghost type moves. Lucario would probably take out everything besides Abomasnow by itself, something to consider.
>>56223253Weavile*
Went on holiday so didn't really touch this for a couple of weeks after starting.Had a bit of a grinding nightmare in the run up to the second gym, lost 3 in the process, was getting set to evolve Eevee as well. Some decent captures in the meantime, had plenty to deal with Gardenia anyway but Soup 2.0 was a nice first encounter in Coronet.Jupiter was fairly comfortable as well, not a great deal to talk about with that one.Currently in desperate need of a water type, so training a couple up, trying to keep options open for now.
