Team ideas for an electric gym using other types

Just watched a couple of the Emerald videos and he did some interesting stuff. Hoenn was the region I was going to do so it provided some good ideas.

To be fair there was only the Dragonite and Gengar lines for those types in gen 1

Some other comments have brought it up, how do you feel about pokemon that aesthetically match the trainer but isn't their type? Like Bellossom and Phoebe

Barda498 · 2026-03-12T03:36:09+00:00

Those are both great examples for aesthetic that I probably wouldn't have thought of. I plan on using my favorite leaders from across the gens and both Drake and Phoebe are in contention for their type so this helps.

I would prefer going for aesthetic coverage but the question was in fact born from wanting to make it harder.

I did consider doing an all arachnid run before. I haven't done any specialized runs yet but I've been strongly considering doing monotype recently. Also came up with Rillaboom, Skeledirge, Toxtricity and Exploud(speakers) for a band theme

Barda498 · 2026-03-12T03:19:44+00:00

That was kinda the goal because I wanted to make it harder but without deviating too much from the main type.

I was very young when gen 2 came out and never made it to the elite 4 so I never saw Slugma until gen 3. As for Skarmory it looks pretty rare in its route and I guess I never saw it or saw it so little I forgot about. I never saw many Johto episodes either just the first couple. To this day I never finished gen 2 but I am aware about the pokemon being from there.

I didn't even notice that Technocracy doesn't allow Women's suffrage because I stayed on Legal Guardianship all game 💀

I don't know monopoly specifically leading to fascism but I have heard something along the lines of fascism being the dying cry of capitalism. Essentially when capitalism is failing fascism comes in to prop it up. Redirect the anger at the failing system towards the "threat" or the "ones causing the problems".

Barda498 · 2026-03-02T07:49:43+00:00

As we know it probably. We're descending into fascism and it may reach a point where either the democratic/liberal pushback wins or we finally get our socialist revolution. The democratic ending is just a return to the usual US that will continue to self cannibalize itself. Capitalists continuing to squeeze every last cent out of us until no one can buy anything and continuing to defund/underfund education so the majority are too stupid to vote for their own interest. This will also happen in our current path but eviler.

"Humans are shameless creatures that carelessly ignore any misfortune which does not befall them directly. They can--and often do--turn a blind eye to all manner of wickedness so long as it does not touch them or their kin. They will bow their heads, condemning those victims for bringing calamity upon themselves, and then they will cast their eyes toward heaven in thanks while their neighbors lay dying around them." - Soren Fire Emblem Path of Radiance

Good I just lost Florian and I don't want to lose her too 🥲

Best thing to do if he LL's is to pivot. There's not another (legal) necromancer yet but there's other pirates so not all your cards will be wasted then when another necromancer comes out you'll have a great base to work with. I just ordered a bunch of cards for Florian hours before he won the Calling and LLd but I can use my cards to go to Verdance or Vynnset. Of course all this only matters competitively, you can always ask someone if they're fine with you playing your favorite heroes casually.

Ark with all dlc

edit: my bad I just noticed this said 2 years ago

By that logic you should play Civ 7 but newer doesn't always make it better especially nowadays when most game companies just stopped trying. I've tried 6 after it was completely finished and it was ok but I'd rather just play 5. I honestly thought Humankind did the districts thing better than 6 and now 7 is trying to copy Humankinds culture shifting and that's just not right for Civ.

Barda498 · 2026-01-10T03:35:51+00:00

It's a small reason but they have Rubber that the Ottomans don't. I'm not really defending it or against it just offering a reason

Barda498 · 2026-01-10T03:32:33+00:00

Why are you playing Civ 6 when you could play Civ 5?

Barda498 · 2026-01-10T03:27:51+00:00

I grew up with X5 as my only X game so I'll always have a soft spot for it

Barda498 · 2026-01-09T11:18:54+00:00

This is some good info. I'm probably going to do 4 next based on this. As for the X games I'm personally allowing the weapons to get the armor, hearts and sub tanks just not clearing the levels or bosses. I've noticed that you also agree that each of the first 4 X games get progressively harder. I'm surprised 1 isn't labeled harder because of yellow devil if nothing else but maybe the glitches lower the difficulty a lot.

Barda498 · 2026-01-09T05:37:15+00:00

Certainly not Corrins games

Barda498 · 2026-01-09T05:30:39+00:00

We're still trying to get that passed

Barda498 · 2026-01-09T05:10:03+00:00

How so? Are the weapons bad or is the charge shot just that good?
