the game is basically over by the time you reach rayquaza in emerald
>>58563804>what is trade?
>>58562316Slaking rapes it without overleveling
no because you need 2 pokemon for Tate and Liza
>>58564530use a shit mon of low level, let it die and continueeasy
>>58564552>use a shit monBy proxy of fielding a second Pokemon the challenge is lost.
>>58562316*smacks lips* can he beat goku doe?
>>58564566if the shitmon doesn't help you at all, then it doesn't count
>>58562316Yh just give it flamethrower to deal with Steel Types not getting one shot by Outrage
>>58564629It helps, retard. The damage caused on the shitmon was not used to reduce Rayquaza's HP therefore it worked as a shield, even if it was -20 HP only.It does count.
>>58564725what if the opponent uses an AoE move and damages both?
>>58563839you can solo with anything if you're going to trade shit in
>>58564753there was no rule against tradingyou can cheat an catch a lvl3 rayquaza on the wild too if you want
>>58564740Do Liza and Tate have spread moves? It's been a while
>>58564780that's fair
>>58564831there's earthquake but it wouldn't affect rayquaza because of flying types
>>58562316Extremely easily.If we go the "modify starters to make Rayquaza your starter" route,>Twister is unironically more than enough to tear into most opponents since nothing mandatory resists it that early in the game>Roxanne is mostly trivial due to Geodude's godawful SpD; Nosepass MIGHT give you trouble with bad RNG, but you should be flinching with your Twister spam before any Rock Tombs put you into death range>Brawly is a joke>you get Dragon Claw at Level 20, so Wattson and Flannery are also jokes>setup Dragon Dance on one of Norman's weaker mons so you can sweep through Slaking using one of the physical moves you have handy>Surf opens up Boltbeam coverage and Surf also lets Rayquaza hit all of Tate & Liza's mons every turn (if you're so worried about requiring a second mon "breaking the rules" of a solo run, outright handicap yourself by having Rayquaza spend its first turn KOing its own teammate>lol Winona>lol Juan>lol the Pokemon League>let's be real the only time you MIGHT have genuine trouble is when you reach Glacia courtesy of the double ice weakness>just be smart with using your moves and Wallace goes down without ever threatening you with Blizzard or Ice Beam
