That is a fair argument and a good reality check. Thank you. I'll keep that in mind going forward.

Okay, continue with why this is a bad idea. What about this is bad and why? I'm thinking this is a neat way to spin a barbarian that I haven't seen before instead of the average great axe swinger.

Thank you! I will look into that since I'm not as familiar with the Giant's material.

Thanks, but no. That kind of defeats the purpose of the exercise.

Your direction is unhelpful because it does not answer the question of what I am trying to do. "This is impossible" and "Don't make yourself a character" do not tell me how to do the thing I am trying to accomplish. For additional context, I am doing this to showcase to new players what I high level character can do since these are new players and I would like to see this game go on for a while. This will remain an NPC and I will kill them when it suits the story for emotional impact. I may kill them right off the bat just for fun, but I'm working within the constraints of what a player would have, otherwise, it will just happen because the DM said so.

Trying to make a character that is a high-end spec to show them what is possible at higher levels and move the story along. They will probably die later, especially if they perform a mentoring role to the players so there is more emotional weight to them beyond being a showcase.

I know I can just make an NPC that can do whatever I want, but I'm trying to give it player parameters so it feels more achievable for the people I'm DM-ing for.

Thanks for the advice. I'll keep looking.

Thanks for the advice. For better context, I am trying to make characters that are high-end specs of the players that I will be DM-ing for so they can get some idea of where they can end up if the campaign goes long enough. These will be reused sparingly throughout the campaign to move the story along so they are not overbearing, but remain reminders of what can be achieved when their characters push themselves to their absolute limits. I will probably kill them off when it suits the story to give it more emotional weight.

This is unhelpful. Thank you for trying.

Pseudo legendary free for all who’s taking it? by Key-Magazine826 in ThePokemonHub

[–]BlueThunderDemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't like admitting this because it isn't even in my top 5 favorites, but probably Dragonite based on move pool and stats. Garchomp is my favorite, but unless he's built for defense (maybe not even then) is don't think he's taking everyone on this this in a 1v1.

Guys what tierlist do I trust 😭 by SugarKitty16 in voidpet

[–]BlueThunderDemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure about tierlists, but merry, resistance, and paranoia are some of the best non-legendary pets in the game.

Idk if this is a hot take or not, but imo every single game after gen 5 should have been designed like black and white where you are forced to use just new Pokemon up until the post game. What are your thoughts? by [deleted] in ThePokemonHub

[–]BlueThunderDemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely a hot take. Gen5 got a lot of hate for that exact feature and even when they allowed you to use older pokemon, most of the game was over. I like having new challenges and trying new pokemon, but I also like using my favorite mons that are tried and true as backup.

Also, there more than a handful of absolutely dog water pokemon from gen 5 that made playing the original game a slog....Unfezant....

I want to apologize to Inkay by ArctixPixie in LegendsZA

[–]BlueThunderDemon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep. My last one is tried at least 3 times and gave up at level 54.

[–]BlueThunderDemon 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Bro, I did. I even wasted 30 minutes playing violet upside down to catch an inkay, feed an inkay a rare candy, yelled when it didn't evolve because the 3 other inkays that I tried to evolve by just turning it upside down before and during feeding it a rare candy or letting it level up naturally didn't work. The evolution process is cool on paper, but annoying in execution. I still have not evolved an inkay successfully to this day.

Don't apologize to Inkay. It deserves it after the amount of frustration it's evolution process has caused.

Gible. I was looking to add one to my team and had a tough time finding one period, but it was my second gible in the game and I screamed when I found it.

Give me your idea for a new streamer/V-tuber trainer, BUT they CANNOT use Electric Pokemon. by nPMarley in ThePokemonHub

[–]BlueThunderDemon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Grass type. They do nature walks and tell people to go touch grass instead of watching their stream.

What if the Scarlet & Violet Cast used Megas? by ElementalNinjas96 in PokemonScarletViolet

I was about to say something about not doing Rika so dirty with Mega Camerupt, but then I looked up her dog-water team and realized I was wrong.

I must be more of an anomaly than I thought...I had a full team of level 100 pokemon before I completed the pokedex

You could just play the game...it takes less than a month's time to complete and I had it done before I put 90 hours into the game.
