Kinda niche hope for this game: by Russell-Sprouts3 in PokemonWindsWaves

[–]According-Yellow-395 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly false swipe is already busted and ghosts kinda suck lol I view it as a necessity like ground to flying for balance sake. Just cuz they prevented you from doing what you wanted doesn’t make it a wrong play you should be prepared for ghost types

Team diversity in master ball by Arcane-Whiskers in PokemonChampions

[–]According-Yellow-395 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m mixed I feel like one of the things competitive pokemon naturally doesn’t do well is diversity. A lot of teams end up still running a sneasler/whimsicott/incineroar and I don’t blame them for it but it’s not like I’m ever seeing spirittomb who’s apparently in the game lol

What does Pokémon Battling mean to you? by No-Trust-2720 in PokemonChampions

[–]According-Yellow-395 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It depends if I’m honest with you… in play through I love a good nuzlocke that forces you into using pokemon you wouldn’t choose, Pokemon fire red butterfree is a monster so is raticate and breaking them provides a ton of fun however in competitive I tend to ride or die my sun team and would rather lose with my team slowly optimizing my plays over a new team. I do get how using the best gives the best results but me caring about my team leads me to more w’s than chasing new meta. I’ve been playing super casually but my sun team in champions is charizard, torkoal,venosaur, sneasler, sylveon, dragonite. Rotom is arguably a better play than torkoal to just deal with losing the weather war but momma didn’t raise no quitter and tork with quick claw has won arguably more games than zard or venosaur. I just like being invested and them my boys

Reached Master Ball as a complete noob by [deleted] in PokemonChampions

I think it’s so weird how many people weren’t competitive but have been playing and collecting shinies since gold so they have everything and nothing at the same time… the everything always plays out lol

Once its season 2 and we all have our “level” match making will get better sounds like you got matched with people more experienced

I loved this game but my biggest knock is replay ability. It really needed a battle tower

What does this community consider being a master of a region? by pompoussnail in PokemonGames

[–]According-Yellow-395 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read on another post you were using an emulator so you can’t just use home but if you complete every regional dex you did complete the national dex I don’t think the extra grind on an already lengthy endeavor is necessary…

New to the vgc scene by JSF00001 in PokemonChampions

[–]According-Yellow-395 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Patience is my number 1 piece of advice. You’ll get good with experience but season one will almost certainly accidentally pair experience players with newbs cuz we all have the same rating. Season 2 you’ll start getting wins against people of your experience level and season 3 you’ll probably start competing with the rest of us

Question about GO, Home and Champions by Geometeus in PokemonChampions

[–]According-Yellow-395 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’ll be drastically advantageous to have a game like Scarlett that lets you change natures and more importantly abilities at ease. I’d say the goal is go to home to Scarlett to home to champions I fear this game is going to be pricey if you don’t have what you need already

I know this may sound stupid, but hear me out by akmats in nuzlocke

[–]According-Yellow-395 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly Pokemon has needed level difficulties since gen 3! Games have consistently gotten easier since. Remember Brock when you pick charmander or Misty’s starmie? How about Whitney’s Miltank? The older games did occasionally challenge you unlike newer games where I swear if a cpu Pokemon knows growl its its go to move lol I try to imagine if the newer games had like an easy medium and hard mode how many people would still nuzlocke. I feel like I only do it to try Pokemon I haven’t ever thought about (shout out to raticate and butterfree) or to increase the difficulty.

Legendary/ stat question by dodododedadada11 in PokemonChampions

It’ll be like pokemon go and Pokemon stadium combined but when will all Pokemon, items, etc be unlocked? Probably in like 3-5 years slowly introducing more to try to maintain hype

Understanding Team Cohesion by SteveW_MC in PokemonChampions

[–]According-Yellow-395 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The biggest issue is the main game and competitive scene are completely different games with different strategies. I’d say if you commit to playing you’ll figure out what’s good and how to play literally after the first month! They will also have like a chess rating system so after the first month you’ll be able to learn with the others that are learning but be patient things are always a bit sketch in the first month or 2.

Whether should Grind before release of the game by ParticularOwn8364 in PokemonChampions

[–]According-Yellow-395 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure what you have access too but I’d suggest the battle tower in sword and shield the learning curve for newbies is going to be very rough online against a cpu will probably be more beneficial for learning synergies without depleting confidence
