>>56983806Are there any romhacks that are m or t rated?
>>56983928who the fuck still takes ESRB ratings seriouslyespecially when for all intents and purposes they were either totally ignored or your parents refused to let you play anything t rated or above even after becoming a teenager
Nice to see the player's actions actually having tangible effects on the world.>>56983928Clover I guess? Ratings don't really mean shit. If you want to go the route of fangames as well, there's Reborn and a few others.
This is another one of those long rants Empire has, but it feels neat in a way, like a far less unhinged version of that one from Sylas and his father and kind of a neat perspective on family, that children need a father figure to mold them into proper adults and that taking the easy way out on things will often bite you in the ass hard eventually. I sometimes hate Empire the most not because of the insufferable things it does, but because I see a glimmer of potential and effort put beneath, but it's so poorly handled.
alright, time to get back into this shit againmmmm....cheesy feet......bros how many threads do you think he's missed?
one thing that's pretty rough to actually portray about a lot of kaizoshit is just how fucked a lot of the movesets arelike, you see this mon, it seems it has good stats, adaptability is obviously a great ability, but then>1,POUND,1,LOCKON,4,THUNDERSHOCK,8,LICK,12,WRAP,17,CAMOUFLAGE,21,FLING,23,SHOCKWAVE,28,MEANLOOK,30,SUCKERPUNCH,33,FAKEOUT,37,REFLECTTYPE,41,GLARE,45,DISCHARGE,50,POWERWHIP,54,THUNDERBOLT,64,ZAPCANNONand you might see thunderbolt there, but...level 54 is basically the very very end of the game. the only thing you have to work with is fucking shock wave for at least like 4 gyms until you get discharge. and meanwhile it's best move besides is maybe...sucker punch off a bad attack stat? glare?moto autistically went through and ensured every single pokemon has cucked movesets at each point of the game, it's honestly quite impressive from a certain point of view
I now understand why Tiramisu was so lost when he was exploring Calvera.>>56984079Imagine the sheer amount of autism required to decide to mode a relatively obscure fangame to the point it's absolutely miserable to play through, not fixing any of the issues the game has on a fundamental basis and still gut almost every single fakemon in said game while at just to make sure the player has the most unpleasant time possible.
I love that you're supposed to just guess an edge on an elevated platform is a ledge you can just down from despite the fact it looks exactly like the rest of the wall, sadge I'm not running Psychic this run.
sticky web on bug gym is fine, give graveler a telluric seed so it can setup stealth rocks for free and win the battle. 3 tries
https://streamable.com/15aujeanother evil team gauntlet. i'll probably start recording fights now they seem to take 3-4 tries at least per fightWhiteouts: 20the retards in the first fight have shit like eviolite and focus sash to try and do as much damage as possible before the second fight. at the very least, i think this is (thankfully) the last 'no heal' gauntlet until the final stretch of the gamerate/10 on the femgrunt>>56984119yeah, you just gotta hug the side of the river until you find an opening through the treesi highly recommend going to get diancie or moltres or whatever first before tackling celebi, shit fucking sucks>not fixing any of the issues the game has on a fundamental basisoh but he did. the original game would outright softlock if you whited out against bosses for instance. he just didn't fix the game being a boring slog with a terrible dexhe apparently cunts the devs out a lot. i wonder if they even gave him permission to make this project. i definitely hope so, it would be such a shame if he turned out to be a hypocrite
>>56984168gg.>water starter is weak to groundhate to see it
>>56984152GG>>56984136good luck bro>>56984180thanksit's actually pretty alright for what it is, screech and the fact poison fang can badly poison (toxic is obviously nearly entirely unavailable for the player and mostly restricted to very late endgame) has come surprisingly good for a lot of the stally retards the game loves to throw

Whiteouts: 21https://streamable.com/rsuh65>sets up sun turn 1>proceeds to do nothing with it, no chlorophyll users, no solar power, nothinginteresting strategyi think the truly funny redpill of kaizoshit as LAWDS proved is just how fucking terrible most of these autists are at creating good teams and challenging fights, half of these are only rough because of the absurd stipulations put on the player
>>56984290gg. when dinomite fainted he made the megaman death sounds
one thing i haven't really mentioned, it's been touched on before, is that moto and demice are addicted to this weird kind of trainer fight where they just use a single pokemon that will often have like 3x the HP and double the stats it normally has or something retarded, who usually will also have illegal moves and coverage to set up a ton (or something like a weakness policy which they can tank with their absurdly inflated bulk) or stall you to death or something. since you don't have easy access to haze or toxic or destiny bond, i'll probably lose at least a few fights to themit's preferable to yang's nonstop meteor gauntlets and shit, but they're still insanely irritating
>>56984152>>56984168>>56984290GG.Yeah, I sadly understand now why that is, holy fuck this fight sucks.>>56984190Thanks bro.
>>56984322must've been hooked on totem pokemon>>56984339thanks bro
it's funny to me that the retard doesn't just give all the pokemon and TMs away for free at the casino, i mean who really is going to want to spend any amount of time grinding this shit out for kaizoshart purposesthe tms are hidden power, safeguard and incinerate. hardly worth it but might end up being necessary sadly, especially hidden power>>56984339thanks
also, to whatever retard normalized the whole 'big city, but you can only walk in crosswalks and the sidewalks' die in a fire plsi'll actually give this game in particular since it actually shows cars driving around, but 99% of the time it just makes shit claustrophobic and terrible to navigatedoes any maingame even do this? maybe lumi*se in XY did and i just don't remember?

alright well this gym really filtered RG last timei beat it pretty easily, but i also had the fire/ground starter, and now i have the waterfagmight need to change out my heckin rotation since i have too many flying types as well>>56984475I warned you bro.Even with Moltres, Terapagos or Diancie I'm sure the fight is still a disaster, but at least you'd have some serious firepower

>>56984509G fucking G. HEAL RIGHT NOW.
The only reason THANATOS didn't solo the fight was because of that stupid Mega Kangaskhan, Incineroar just clicks Darkest Lariat and the fight is over, GRD Sableye gets deleted in a single hit.>>56984523Thanks bro and noted.

man it's so fun when you fight a team and half of it is legitimately impossible to outspeed at this point in the gamenear her entire team is evolved mons, and her ace here:Name=RushotInternalName=RUSHOTType1=ELECTRICBaseStats=65,85,70,130,73,50HiddenAbility=ELECTRICSURGEall perfect coverage, because, fuck you
Solgaleo is proving itself to be infinitely more fucking annoying than GRD Sableye, there's having a boss fight to get a legendary and then there's slowly dragging the player through broken glass that's been thrown over an open fire, it's just complete fucking bullshit on all accounts.
W E W ladWhiteouts: 34https://streamable.com/zo65gvagain, it's really hard to convey how annoying some of these fights are>>56984511 this is the lead>>56984675 this is the ace (it has a shuca berry too)she has some electric/poison snake that's extremely fast and has air balloon, a water/electric focus sash shark that's extremely fast and has some 80 BP water move, and a bug/electric mon that's extremely fast and has strong spread moves on top of an occa berrymeanwhile my best ground types are like route 1 tier shitmons kek and/or have horrible moves. the amount of times i got so close but was sneeded because of some retarded coverage move was...too manyanyway, rate/10
>Octavius made almost every move in Empire have 95% accuracy, just to make the player's life hell>I've had Darkest Lariat miss 8 times in a roll across 3 attempts>>56984731G fucking G.
>>56984731i misread that mon's name as shitheatanyways 6/10, too flat and also wtf why is her head so big
>>56984731gg. this feels similar to when you played urmumium with how many restrictions you have
>the faggot ace had iron tail which killed the attempt priorlet's see how big the accuracy buff is for the AIthat's not as much as ashen frost, is it? doesn't seem as big. well either way, hopefully moto throws many zap cannon/inferno mons my way, haha...>>56984753>>56984763thanks bros>gg. this feels similar to when you played urmumiumi guess he's doing his job kekthe main issue is that since he level gated the evolutions very carefully, he can just stick mons on the AI that are just always going to be faster/better than whatever you have kek>>56984756the racemixing in the city poisons the gene pool
>>56984779no, apparently it's the same. i guess +20% accuracy is just the magic number for these faggots
>Impossible Monocle>This item will always halve non-STAB damage from the opponent, but it locks you into only being able to use your primary STAB>Solgaleo is still doing one trillion damage with Earthquake and the damage isn't being halved at allCAN THESE FAGGOTS NOT PLAYTEST THEIR OWN FUCKING GAME? NOT EVEN ONCE?!
>>56984815clearly you need a sun to deal with one of the 1 trillion lions
>>56984815haha...sorry bro. i honestly found that fight way easier than the firsti have no idea why celebi of all mons is so backbreaking to get, but then again rg showed it was really fucking strong tbf
>>56984834but that lion is the sun anon
>>56984863oh shit
Probably one of the shittiest battles I've had to deal with in....well not that long since it's only been a day since I took a break from playing Yang.>>56984834This lion IS the sun though.>>56984860The first fight just took the right mons and some careful positioning, the second fight is absolute fucking dogshit because of the constant switching and bullshit fight mechanics being mixed together with already incredibly strong mons that also have resist berries and items that make them borderline impossible to kill.
this is the main thing about this game. it's just nonstop fucking rival fights>gay male rival>femrival>gay male rival again>1st gym>edgyrival>femrival>2nd gym>gay male rival>edgyrival>3rd gym>gay male rival>female rivalfuck off you literal niggerfaggots
>>56984887G fucking G dude. hopefully that's the fight that gives you the least trouble this update, but i kinda doubt it. though for some reason it feels like you struggle with the fights we found not too bad and are fine with the fights we hated (slate and mortimer i remember you found pretty easy) so maybe since we found the legendary birds to be niggerfests you won't hate them too muchapparently the game tracks how many 'oligarchs' you've beaten, not really sure what that's about
>fought every trainer on this route>still underleveled for the rivalepic
>>56984887gg
>>56984015Gorillions, probably
I'm not really sure what I gotta do here and I'm pretty tired AND have a job interview tomorrow morning, so I'm probably calling it a night soon.>>56984914Kek, the desert was manageable for me due to my dualtype (still sucked ass though), Sylas and Ashe were cakewalks and Mortimer was piss easy due to Terapagos, I really hope the birds aren't so shitty since I really want to get Moltres and also Diancie's evo item.>>56984941Thanks bro.
it's overWhiteouts: 39fuck the nigger switching AIhttps://streamable.com/3wq91athat turtle is going to be a menace later, it's basically cradily but actually really offensively strong, and it can mega evolve>>56985029yeah, you find the abomasnow, and then a stairway opens in kind of the bottom right of the area to get the abomasitegood luck on the interview bro
>this is the first town you can buy oran berries, other than this you get 5 limited onesyeah i'm sure having near infinite oran berries would have just broken the electric gym over the player's knee
>>56985058GG.Oh so that's what it opens. Thanks bro.
okay, well, this is a second starter choice. basing it off their final evos>normal/fire deer - extremely fast 124 base speed, strong, middling bulk>grass/fighting monke - strong 110 attack, decent bulk and speed>water/rock coral mon - extremely bulky with 115 defenses, pretty strong, middling speedi'll let anyone decide. in the meantime i'm probably calling it a night myself
>>56985058gg. one day soon there will be a kaizo mod where only the ai is allowed to switch.>>56985029gl tomorrow bro>>56985126take walmart chimchar
>>56985126I say Monke, seems to be the most well balanced all of the 3, you already chose a Water type so corrine ain't a good call and the deer is fast and hits hard but considering Moto shat all over this game I doubt it's movepool is good or that it will be that fast compared to a lot of the shit you come across.>>56985150Thanks bro.
>>56985150>>56985162fair enough. deer's moveset isMoves=1,TACKLE,1,FOCUSENERGY,7,DOUBLEKICK,10,EMBER,14,STOMP,18,FLAMEWHEEL,22,VACUUMWAVE,24,INCINERATE,28,FACADE,30,FIREFANG,33,JUMPKICK,39,CRUNCH,43,TAKEDOWN,47,FLAMETHROWER,53,BLAZEKICK,58,DOUBLEEDGE,64,FLAREBLITZso yeah, for most of the game, the best STAB fire move deer gets is fucking fire fang. i guess it could be worse
>>56985181yeah i'm voting for whatever the runner up is that isn't the deeryou're not outspeeding anything the m*dder throws at you anyways
>sableye and umbreon doublehandedly buckbroke wingdings' favorite fight on AWESOMESAUCE modeon the one hand, i'm happy to see the tranny ackers at workon the other, i know this epic 'beat the game with as few dark types as possible' is going to lead to even more huge sweeping changes to nerf everything into the core of the earth, even things that actually like having prankster, will-o-wisp, detect, etc. without being broken about it
>>56985310will-o-wisp 50% accuracy unless a fire mon uses itprankster halves accuracysource is my uncle works for lawds
>>56985310you know a modder is buckbroken when they start removing vanilla content that'd let you stand a chance against whatever their op shit you're not allowed access to isfrom p2w minecraft servers making netherite paywalled to shitty pokemon fangame mods neutering dozens of mons at once because their shitty teambuilding got stomped by one mon
>>56985310that's adam MIGHT (be a shitty side character) in the video, by the way>>56985303it's not that bad. it's roughly faster than about 95% of the dex. the main problem will be it dealing enough damage and not getting sneeded in return due to bad moves, or for later on when he starts spamming swift swimmers and sand rush faggots or multiple megas per team that can all outspeed it
>>56985320*auntyou fucking transphobe
>>56985320apparently he made it so that will o wisp just can't even work on rock types on rocky field but his jeetcode couldn't hold up under CHADleyei assume when he kneejerks out the patch to fix it he'll break something else in the process
>>56985310at this point I think wingdings just isn't aware of the fact that in every single little thing people will find the meta strats, even if you change it. he keeps changing things like this and it makes me wonder if he thinks he can create the uncheesable, but it's just not possible
>>56985343>>56985353anyone gonna bet when he'll just do a mass purge/nerfing of status moves after enough incidents of people having to cheese his bullshit just to complete the game
>>56985407I've already seen one other kaizomod put most status moves, even basic basic buff moves like defense curl, at 1 pp. let's get more evil, put maximum negative priority on every buff/debuff/status move player only
Been a busy day bros, probably gonna still be busy for a bit, dunno if I'll continue Yang when things slow down either kek, the meteorniggers have really sapped any drive I feel to play, to say nothing of the upcoming Gl*tch fieldggs to everything I missed bros>>56985126I'll third the monke, iirc it gets brick break access too, which is huge when the only other mon iirc is aquad>>56985310kekProbably the only based mm autist, if only because of how much wingdings and deeffect have acked during his autism run
>>56985407>>56985353Urmumium and SLLD Eclipse are pretty cheese free but that's largely because Moto/Demice literally comb over every single available Pokemon at every point in the game and make it so that there's no possible way they could break the fights. I think Moto said when doing his rejuv mod he literally put thousands of hours into making it so that you could not break the game (and even then he missed a few spots just due to the size of the dex, SLLD and Urmumium have much smaller dexes so it's much easier to micromanage the player's options there)I don't think wingdings or deeffect are quite that autistic, so they'll just go the route of doubling down on player/enemy asymmetry and hand a bunch of retarded buffs to the enemy + hyperspecific interactions or nerfs when someone cheeses one of the fights>>56985433Thanks bro. Take as much rest time as you need kekHonestly you'd probably be justified debugskipping the meteorgauntlets >he's that buckbroken over CHADmefruKekHe apparently did 3 mon runs of shit like MM so its not really surprising he's doing the same in a much easier mod, wingdings is taking it a lot worse than moto though. I feel the longing for kaizo in his soul surging
>>56985433>beautiful battlesI'm sure he's joking a bit here but even so his battles are anything but, literally removing 70% of options in a game series where there are over 1000 different party members with unique builds
Based>>56985494Thanks kek>Honestly you'd probably be justified debugskipping the meteorgauntlets Probably kek, but even if I did, it's still only one part of the shit you deal with in yang unfortunately >>56985782that's what makes it beautiful chuddie, how else can wingdings sama and deeffect sama make teams that will 1v6 your team and then seethe and remove/giganerf whatever counters that specific boss?

>>56985310This is beyond fucking embarrassing, it's just pure zoomer brainrot.>>56985433Thanks bro and I don't fucking blame you, the meteor gauntlets are so beyond fucking awful to the point of being soul crushing.>Beautiful battlesLAWDS' take on fights is fucking dogshit, every single fight is as barebones and overtly simplistic as it gets, the team composition sucks, many Poikemon can't outright abuse the terrain and the way they make fights "tough" is by giving the AI bullshit buffs and broken mons like Gigantamax Blastoise on Neved's fight with perma-rain.
>>56987487don't forget infinite switching, and removing moves that were meant to prevent switching so you have to learn every instance of what triggers the AI to switch. god forbid you change literally anything about your team during that time and have to learn a completely new set of triggers. also item spam
>>56987615I still think one of the worst cases by far was Florinia's fight because it's a culmination of everything wrong with LAWDS.Her team are a bunch of extremely fast and strong Grass types on one of the most broken fields in the game that makes several types that resist Grass weak to it because fuck you, there's perma rain AGAIN because fuck you, I'm pretty sure they even implemented a few sneaky nerfs to Flying types since birdspam was easily the best way to deal with the fight and they got so fucking butthurt over priority moves, especially First Impression that they went out of their way to program bright powder to completely nullify any form of it on Bewitched Woods, that's not even to mention the free buffs quite a few Pokemon get during this fight like Gigantamax Venusaur getting a free special attack boost on switch-in and an ability that doubles the damage of all Grassy moves on top of a field that already increases Grass type damage.The fights with Neved are the other ones that stand out due to how shit they are for seemingly no good reason.
>>56987768Flora's*
I fucking hate how there's no flashlight or equivalent in TMs or something like Flash to use in these fucking caves.
This is just here now, too bad my lord and savior Deb of Ug has granted me the power to evolve my Tyranitar at a sensible point.
I grabbed the Abomasite prematurely and now Ezrael isn't showing up in Polaris peak, did I fuck something up or is this just shitcode?
>>56987846it's empire, it's always shitcode
I even went back to Polaris hollow, I did the puzzle correctly, which just involved repeatedly clicking on a stupid statue until the correct metric was achieved, got the Mega stone, got the fucking message I needed to talk to Ezrael even though I hadn't interacted with him yet and now he isn't showing up in Polaris peak, I'm gonna mess with the variables and switches for a bit to see if anything fixes this.>>56987856It would seem so.
I was browsing switches and I think Octavius is planning to add a house mechanic for the player in the upcoming chapters.
I think this is the only Ezrael related switch I could find related to this whole mess, but I don't want to skip the fight and everything. I might have to go back a few saves, which sucks dick considering how awful the organization with savefiles is in Empire.
Yeah messing with variables didn't fix shit, so I'm gonna have to go back a few saves. What's the point of playtesters if they don't playtest games?
I was fairly overleveled for this fight and it was still a fair bit of a challenge, still first try though, Mega Glailie is literally just Arthas' helmet but it looks cool so fuck it. Time for the real hell to start.
>>56988263gg
Can't say this was fun in any way, because it really fucking wasn't, but it's nowhere near as dogshit fucking awful like Celebi was. GRD Empoleon was ironically the easiest part of the fight, it just melts to strong Fire hits, the real big issues is the incredibly strong Ice types getting free speed boosts on the field, especially Alolan Ninetails who has Diancie's signature move because fuck you and Mamoswine just deleting everything from existence and taking almost no damage, I love it how the moment I put aspear berries on my Pokemon to counteract the freeze, I never got frozen once.>>56988275Thanks.
>You're immediately put against Articuno after this fight without a single chance to healI want to scream.
>>56988328>>56988263GGhey, it took both rg and I at least an hour to get past the shitty penguin, if not even longer, so good workunfortunately, if the trend keeps up....I remember finding moltres not that bad, so good luck haha..>>56987768can't wait to redo it all with all the niggers being pulse3, too>>56987615umm bro don't you just heckin love when you change out literally one move on one pokemon on your team (that's not even sent out) and suddenly the AI starts acting completely differently? how do you not think that's le fun difficulty?
>>56985844>Unbreakable Ties and LAWDS racing to be the best and worst games respectively with each screencapYou love to see it.
>The AI out of nowhere developed an auto Sturdy cheat after I started reliably killing A-Ninetails in one hit consistentlyPlaying Empire sometimes gives me a similar feeling to watching trannies or faggots being near children, utter fucking disgust and a guttural hatred that can't be put into words.>>56988364Thanks bro, sadly I'm still stuck in the shit gauntlet because Octavius is an insufferable autistic faggot who can't make a singular good decision ever.I wanted to replay LAWDS, but after seeing the fucking absurd shittery from nerfing everything getting worse AGAIN I'm heavily discouraged from ever touching it again
in the first run I did the beartic fight way later so I never saw this. this by no means redeems the character at all but it's neat and he'll always be better then cal
And Articuno has a 1% catch rate too............yeah, I'm just killing it and spawning a new one via debug, fuck this.
I am indeed an ore expert you might say.
>>56988550shocked you don't have to have a chatot in a cage to warn you of gas leaks
>Tries to mine ore vein>Solrock pops up>Game immediately crashesOn a more irl centered note, I love I cannot play Empire or Cuckguard without it starting to violently storm outside.>>56988557Eh, I'm sure my Archeops will be a good stand-in.
the journey continues....now through the desertmaybe there will be one decently designed pokemon. i'm still holding out hope bros>>56988521it would have actually just been cool if blake wasn't part of meteor and he was just cal's douchebag brother who was a dick to him because cal is a faggot. it's not like blake being part of meteor does literally anything for the story other than to make it confusing why he just gets forgiven when the postgame startsanyway i imagine you're really going to hate that faggot come the m*nsion raid

Do I gotta break all the rocks or something? I'm assuming that's it but Empire puzzles tend to be so retarded that it might be just anything.>>56988578The saddest part is that something like this could possibly pass off as a Pokemon as of gen 9.

>>56988660nah ypu missed a few digits
how this game handles evolution stones is really funyou get a very limited amount of them and one at a time, so you have to choose what evo line you're going for early (you basically cannot get anymore until near the end of the game)top row is thunderstone evos>zuppy evolves into super fast dog, bad moveset, but passable offenses>bird evolves into slightly less fast but still very fast bird, again decent offenses but slightly better moves, a lot more frail>snake evolves into electric/poison fastnigger, overall pretty rounded stats besidesbottom row is duskstone evos>pumpkin is bug/ghost with flash fire, very bulky>ghost is very fast, specially bulky but not strong besideswhich ones should I go for, bros?
>>56988686I say bird and pumpkin.
>>56988686my vote would be either bird or pumpkin
>>56988709>>56988711great minds think alike kekin any other game this would be a pretty god tier stallmon, in this one because leech seed was nerfed to only work for 3 turns (and wears off if you switch out) it'll probably be just alright
I had to reset the fight over 14 times because Octavius lowered the accuracy on EVERY. SINGLE. WATER. MOVE. to fucking 75% and my luck REALLY decided to screw me over.>>56988730Hopefully we made the right suggestion, the Ghost/Bug seems pretty decent due to type and general resistances.

If this game didn't have easily accessible debug I would be fucking furious.Where's Zapdos? Illyria? Starlight?

Whiteouts: 46https://streamable.com/psdnedannoying, as usualthe real fun will be later on when a lot of these niggers are stronger, especially the rhino and the cat>>56988833i can't really think of anything except ogerpon and the mythic mosaic. there's also the niggers outside the council building in the desert if you've not done that yet, make sure to side with the (((merchant's guild))) if you want nihilego>>56988857autismit's probably specifically for this very monalso, the player doesn't get access to hidden abilities until much later, so only the AI gets to use it for now
oh also for orevald, there's this cutscene with shartlas and his dad in the industrial district, where his dad proves to be the most based character in the game yet again
You're telling me that a bunch of desert mutts who are unused to technology as possible just so randomly happen to be the world experts on extra-dimensional beasts? Is this Empire's version of the jew IQ test frauds?>>56988882GG.Ogerpon is where? I already got one mosaic piece in the swamp.I really want Nihilego but I wouldn't side with (((merchants))) ever.
>>56988906thanks>desertnigsthe other reward is guzzlordi mean i suppose if you go down the muslimnigger questline, you might get something usable, but apparently nihilego is actually pretty strong so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.the muslimniggers give you guzzlord, which apparently is dogshit>ogerponmantle mask is from surfing in calvera (hug southwest on the river, it's behind a small tree)stark mask is where you find abomasitecurrent mask is from swamp lake depthswild mask is from flegetont lake depthsyou then have to take the masks to a hidden cave in the southwest corner of primordial steppe

alright, next major choice timethis one's the fossils, i gotta pick one before fighting the next gymleft is fire/rock, high attack, flash fire/solid rock, well rounded other statsright is rock/steel, high special attack, volt absorb/sturdy, well rounded other stats, however it does not possess an outline unfortunatelyi'll again let anyone decide>>56988927thanks. yeah, they both seem pretty good
>>56988946>no outlineso it only has positives, pick that one
For a moment I thought this puzzle reset and I screamed like a dying man.>>56988923I will pray to the TRUE god of Empire Deb of Ug, his merciful blessings will once more deliver me from hardships.I think I got all the masks, I managed to find all the hidden ones, I think I'm only missing the stark one due to resetting and nothing much with the puzzle.
>>56988946lairon's distant special attacking relative
GOJIRAi actually kind of like this one, barring the retarded proportions. reminds me of a nidoking redesign from a universe where pokemon was significantly more oriented towards gay bara autists>>56988957>>56988965tribe has spoken>>56988961oh don't worry, you'll be screaming over a puzzle soon enough haha..

I was checking items real quick and I came across this, there's also Ichigo's mask.>>56988987H-haha......

>>56988550Is your name actually because you like rocks? Actually what even is the origin of the names of the tripfags here
>>56989048the story behind my name was because someone got the right digits when suggesting it for my first rejuv LPand Wagie's nickname was because he kept citing his presumably minimum wage job whenever he had to take a break from whatever slop he was playing back then; the nickname kinda stuck(for the most part he namefagged as <player character name in whatever shit I got burnt out playing and handed the save to someone else> dos which eventually turned into just wagie dos before empiredevs kidnapped him and then some of the worst months of the general happened so now he just namefags as Wagie now)
>Octavius gave Clawitzer a 60 power priority move with a flinch chance>>56989048RPG character name from a really old campaign I played back when it was still possible to find campaigns that weren't ruined by loony libshits and women, said character was a geomancer. Yeah I've been studying rocks and geology since I was kid, I really wanted to be a paleontologist but it didn't pan out.
>>56989024Octavius, I don't think this is what the Pokemon opening meant with "To catch them is my real test".
>>56989112I wonder if Octavius's self insert has a Typhlosion considering recent eventsand his volcanic rage at the idea of keeping it simple, stupid

>>56989251>>56989259Thanks bros. I think it did.Funny thing is Toxapex is still Water/Poison but now it just randomly has 108 attack, it doesn't even learn Precipice Blades in any way too, so it's an illegal move.

I see now why I hadn't found the tile in Fledgenton, you need to Empyrean your way rocks that don't look like you can pass through them.>>56989463GG again.
>>56989475that wasn't an actual boss, but thanks albeit
>>56989463gg. it's weird to see two different people have the idea of "what if I made a mon that was just solorock and lunatone combined" although jan was more literal with it
>you need to see 230 pokemon to get the eviolite>i have 177 (i'm also not 100% sure it's asking for 'caught' instead of 'seen')epic. the AI literally often just straight up oneshots my evolved pokemon with coverage non-STAB moves but clearly an eviolite at this juncture would be a bit too much for me to havei think this game also introduces some kind of damage buff for the AI as well, it really does suspiciously feel like they're doing much too damage. i know urmumium does>>56989492thanks.
>the run would end either with getting raped by the ape or getting to shedninja and forgetting about wonder guardlong story short sometimes you just need two normal/flying birds. also mega shuckle doing nothing but sticky web and then body slamming for 1.5% of any of my mon's health is pathetic, like bro be less obvious that every boss needs sticky web. it would've been better if it didn't mega and could stone my birds to death, why needlessly change it? 12 tries
alright, time for this shit again>water stonejust the two seaweed mons on top. they're both water/grass, one is physical (the sand one) with high spdef and the other is special with high physdef>leaf stonewoodpecker is high attack, gets skill link/sniper and a few multi-hit moves but quite a bit later.my little horse is just high attack high speed, gets a few ground/fighting moves for coverage.bush baby is high defenses with very high spdefalternatively, this game actually gives two different eevees (mons that evolve into a variety of forms depending on what stone you give - there's a fish eevee and a sheep eevee) later on that i can save the stones fori'll let bread pick>>56989560G fuckin G
