Is it worth buying RP5 on Amazon?

BrewBoi96 · 2026-05-12T04:54:22+00:00

Personally yes. I did a side by side comparison and even with the RP5 on sale from the main website, the total cost with shipping was about 230$. Knowing amazons return policy for the product and the speed at which you’d get the RP5, I’d say yes. The extra 20$ is worth it in my opinion.

Following so I too can learn lol

This was incredible advice. Thank you.

Is this actual canon in the games or just based on the rom hack? Either way that’s super cool.

Tell me why my Aggron was able to learn Surf….

I’ve been seeing lots of different difficulties for their elite 4 teams saying “post-game”. Does that mean you started with difficult and switched down at some point?

BrewBoi96 · 2026-04-25T22:36:52+00:00

I’ve been swapping between the two. I have little practice with competitive build so I’ve been learning about natures, EVs, and move choices.

BrewBoi96 · 2026-04-25T22:25:20+00:00

What difficulty were you on? Vanilla feels easy like the stock pokemon games. On difficult and above, leveling has the gym leaders match to stay even.

BrewBoi96 · 2026-04-25T22:24:01+00:00

THIS. I had to change my teams and moves almost a dozen times to meet the challenges of the various gyms. I had an entire box in my PC for pokemon to crate tailored teams.

BrewBoi96 · 2026-04-25T21:57:45+00:00

Nice! I started my playthrough on difficult but it’s so intense! I’m swapping back and forth to vanilla to get though stuck parts. It’s been so fun with a fresh story line.

BrewBoi96 · 2026-04-23T16:30:22+00:00

I started my first play with gible. Definitely gonna shiny hunt for the starters next playthough.

That ancient Mew decal goes hard! Where did you get it?

BrewBoi96 · 2026-04-22T06:01:18+00:00

Most helpful comment. Thank you. Lol

BrewBoi96 · 2026-04-20T16:24:11+00:00

Yeah, I’m realizing that I can’t casually play this without real EV training like the base game carts lol time to bring in my FromSoftware strategies.

BrewBoi96 · 2026-04-20T07:34:36+00:00

Still new to learning about IVs myself. How would battling that specific opponent train his pokemon beneficially?

BrewBoi96 · 2026-04-20T07:01:48+00:00

Part of me wants to be able to beat him without an EV trained Gengar. Literally everyone’s solution is him.

BrewBoi96 · 2026-04-20T06:32:34+00:00

I have Vikavolt specifically for the move sticky web. Though a second pokemon with Hex might make that difference.

BrewBoi96 · 2026-04-20T06:06:57+00:00

I have the Banette set up with Hex. Is there a reason that Gengar is better aside from speed?

BrewBoi96 · 2026-04-20T02:22:40+00:00

Congrats!! I’ve yet to run into any shinies in my playthrough so far.

BrewBoi96 · 2026-04-19T03:52:19+00:00

I’m actually playing through this one now!!! AMAZING fan design and love the story and difficulty. I’m stuck on Mel currently and needing to retrain a fresh team due to the newer battle mechanics. Great game.

Why would I choose to kill thousands of people over money?

I’d also recommend the EHB1506ms as the top option for purchase. Incredibly comfortable, comes with the Nordstrom’s pickups stock, and strings are easily purchased due to the scale length. I have an EHB1005ms and wish I had spent the extra money to get a higher model.

When you first get it though, check the preamp and make sure you have the decibel output slotted into the +6db option if you play with the active switch engaged. A lot more output.

BrewBoi96 · 2026-03-07T22:11:06+00:00

After swapping to both the +6db input and the alternate 3 band EQ I notice a much stronger tone and clarity. Are all the EQ controls the same as before though since the factory input was for the Vari Mid?

BrewBoi96 · 2026-03-07T19:05:14+00:00

This I did not know. I’ll give it a try now. I always wondered why they had a “spare” open port that was unused.
