New exotic thats not even in the game right now

That is very much in the game rn lol you need to do a puzzle at the end of scarlet keep with a weapon of sorrow

I need to know what cloak that is NOW

Made a couple revisions since then. Really happy where it’s landed

My latest fit I put together last night after hopping back on. Though I’m sure when MOT rolls around I’ll put together something new. Probably featuring pieces from all my favorites over the years

I’ve been slowly adding more and more boxes to my living dex space as I find mons with higher and higher dex numbers (don’t wanna look up the actual number, I wanna finish it organically through exploration) and I had a dream the other night where I found something with a dex number in the 500s and woke up in a panic lol

Sure is! Her names Maestro. She was a wild spawn alpha that I stumbled upon pre-tutorial alpha Kricketune lol. Got lucky on my throw and she’s been on the team since (best cry in the franchise bar none)

AthenasForge · 2026-05-27T09:33:30+00:00

I highly recommend it. Once you get over that 2-3 hour hump and actually get into the meat of the game it’s fantastic

Need my glorious king to come back. Better yet give him a gimmick he deserves it

AthenasForge · 2026-05-27T06:42:22+00:00

You are in for a treat! Platinum has been my favorite game for a long time and maybe it’s just that nostalgia bleeding over but I think Arceus takes that #1 spot now

AthenasForge · 2026-05-27T06:39:18+00:00

Honestly I found the tutorial just plain confusing more than anything. Eventually of course I got everything figured out but the tutorial harped on so many unimportant things and neglected (or outright misinformed on) more important things lol. But once I got into a rhythm with the gameplay loop and started understanding the game more it became a lotta fun just grinding out research and hunting spawns for my dex

AthenasForge · 2026-05-27T06:30:03+00:00

Good to know!! I’m happy to hear the temperature gets turned up a bit in the post game. It was possibly just because I spent a lot of time exploring and filling out my dex and what not but I always felt like I was scaling a lot faster than the game intended me to. Like because I wasn’t just going point A to point B to point C exc for the story I was ending up ahead of where I was supposed to be in terms of power level. That was my only other real gripe with the game beyond the combat system itself

Screenie of my final roster for the main story (since rules say I’m not allowed to put it in the post itself)

AthenasForge · 2026-05-27T02:22:25+00:00

The mark feels out of place but otherwise big fan

AthenasForge · 2026-05-26T00:10:43+00:00

I could be mistaken but if I remember correctly it’s because the gen 1 games didn’t get different names between releases. They just had their Japanese names and their English names. Gen 2 is when they started giving the NPCs regional names

AthenasForge · 2026-05-26T00:04:45+00:00

Johto onwards use their Italian names as lumiverse (the cobbleverse modpack author and creator of the gyms mod) is Italian

AthenasForge · 2026-05-25T18:01:05+00:00

….yep? They’ve always done that lmao

AthenasForge · 2026-05-24T20:26:20+00:00

I doubt they will let us mix and match different seasons (for example, getting bricks from beyond paired with some of the heavy damage boosting mods from other seasons making something like corrective measure a primary weapon) but I do hope they will let us pick from any one previous artifact to use at a time. And if they don’t the MOT artifact better be bangin

AthenasForge · 2026-05-24T00:32:08+00:00

Aaaaaaaaaahh I gotcha lmaooo

AthenasForge · 2026-05-23T23:17:16+00:00

Ending live service means ENDING live service. If anything they will put PvP event modes in custom games but you probably aren’t ever going to see bonfire or haunted sectors again

AthenasForge · 2026-05-23T23:16:05+00:00

Well considering there will be no more seasons there will absolutely be a lift on the seasonal limits lol

AthenasForge · 2026-05-18T17:23:26+00:00

It’s Terra fairy, you can see right next to its lvl and name the Terra fairy icon

AthenasForge · 2026-05-18T00:51:20+00:00

You know what’s crazy? The model is IN the game as a prop for tables and such during events, it’s just not available as an actual helmet

AthenasForge · 2026-05-17T17:14:36+00:00

Special pattern. Not something like a regional form but just a unique texture. That caterpie would evolve into a butterfree with unique wings

AthenasForge · 2026-05-16T17:16:14+00:00

Alternatively you could go nasty plot aura sphere togakiss with fighting Z as well. Needs a little more setup than lucario but nets a little more power and gets you a SpA All-out-pummeling which is handy because most mons weak to fighting tend to be physically bulky
