nintendo

and the fact that the models act according with the little icons (which I'm glad they kept)

is great

well its a pokemon game made by not gamefreak after all

how do you set gravelrocks so every party member can use them?

>solar beam >hyper beam >no ice beam...

the r+l thing

in the menu

hover over it its int he bottome right corner

something about setting it

is smart strike worth getting?

is it guaranteed accuracy?

What starter can learn it

yes its accuracy is a sure hit

range?

front

if it adds type coverage or imprves on an existing move then sure

But there's so few things that can learn smart strike

oh, then probably not

just gonna get energy ball then

you don't need tms until much later if you are just starting

energy ball will be worth it to balance chikorita abit

oh then yes

fix chikorita so its usable

lol just finding a hyper beam TM on the floor of a dungeon?

oh my god

i managed to get 2 powdered snow freezes

on a boss

freeze is extremely likely for some reason

so this game is horrible because it forces autosave so you can't reset lost attempts at forced story dungeons

i cant cheat

so it sucks

game hard

so it suck

:(

what being forced into story with no warning and no way to level for it is fair?

i died on the second floor

there is a way to level

its called the rocky path

it's meant to be hard

if you fail at lapis you get the uh rocky path to help level yourself

and items meant to help you

same with mt blaze

and none of those are available

are you past lapis/mt blaze?

no

i died in lapis

yeah and in the og if you died at lapis

you could do rocky path

oh its an option if i try to re-enter

yeah

in the og it had a bunch of orbs and stuff that's useful

i'd assume the same goes here

only seeds

no food

no berries

no orbs

weird

i remeber there being lots of orbs

maybe DX changed it

i managed to die in lapis cave at floor 13, go on a rescue mission and saved myself

the new versus style that Wolfey and Ludwig were testing on stream today looks fun

30 minutes to build a team using pokemon from 3 random routes

ffs, muchlax appeared and since I've never played red & blue I didn't know I could recruit him

rip

Munchlax shouldnt have been in the original

did 130~ an attack to articuno

ok

from my main

also

this game feels really bloated

like pokemon wise

I don't remeber not being able to walk 3 steps without another pokemon appearing and a fight ensuing

I just want to explore but every 2 seconds there's another pokemon and I do not remeber this

also, I don't use it but why even ADD an auto mode if you're unable to use it in combat and this game has 10x as much combat as before

The pokemon count is definitely higher than Red/Blue

But I feel like this is what GTI was like

the earlier games, you could have floors with 1-2 pokemon
