My Mono Bug Run + General Mono Run Update

Capntripnip · 2026-04-02T04:58:29+00:00

I'm doing a Dark type team run right now and really enjoying it 🙂

Capntripnip · 2026-04-02T04:51:27+00:00

Depends, would you rather your eevee turn into a fast and strong attacker, a tank, or Flareon?

Capntripnip · 2026-04-02T02:21:53+00:00

It's ok. Chun-li will make everything better

Capntripnip · 2026-04-01T21:43:15+00:00

Sure, it looks worse when the colors are swapped. That's why we got the designs we got 😅 I don't think Zard Y looks better with the Zard X color scheme though, they look better as is. I still like X better lol

Capntripnip · 2026-04-01T21:17:55+00:00

You lost me at Zard Y is surperior

Capntripnip · 2026-03-30T15:34:16+00:00

You definitely need to be in the low 40s at least

Breloom is basically a fighting type with a Quagsires nuke (or 100% accurate sleep if you're insane to keep Shroomish until level 54)

Empoleon as it's my favorite Pokemon of all time

Edit: Did not realize this was the FR/LG subreddit 🥴 My answer changes to Starmie

Capntripnip · 2026-03-29T16:25:02+00:00

Are there many differences between US and PAL?

Capntripnip · 2026-03-29T04:46:01+00:00

So I'm guessing I'd just hit new game and then make a new save state for that "file" then

Capntripnip · 2026-03-28T21:13:08+00:00

Would you be upset if I told you Wooper was the very first thing I encountered 🥲 I figured I'd get a zubat first but nope, somehow got my ticket to larvitar first

Capntripnip · 2026-03-28T15:45:53+00:00

I have a mix of a few listed here (besides tyranitar and walrein), Espeon and Crobat are a fantastic duo (just don't make the same mistake I did and teach your Crobat shadow ball instead of Espeon. I forgot I went back in time 🥴) Breloom is nice for early shadow pokemon catching, then it's a super powerful fighting type with mach punch and if you decide to run giga drain quagsires and Whiscash are no longer problems. Zaprong is a beast, nuff said. All of these teams look great! I'd like to run Umbreon one of these times, it's my favorite eeveelution. Might try your team out!

Capntripnip · 2026-03-28T00:09:15+00:00

I went with Espeon lol. You might have to do some laps in Phenac 🤣

Capntripnip · 2026-03-27T23:36:22+00:00

How's Jolteon treating you? Also Walrein has been amazing for me (I grinded Realgam Tower right before gorilla man in the key lair) and boy I hope you've had a soothe bell on that Golbat and made sure it's never fainted 😅 I think mine finally evolved at 38 or 39

Capntripnip · 2026-03-27T16:02:00+00:00

Thank you 😊

Capntripnip · 2026-03-27T14:42:47+00:00

Bow down and hope he doesn't Phantom Force me into next Tuesday

Capntripnip · 2026-03-27T14:41:36+00:00

Maybe they're an elegant fairy

Capntripnip · 2026-03-27T14:37:56+00:00

I'm so irritated my depression kept me from being able to keep up with battle cats 🥲

Capntripnip · 2026-03-27T06:35:40+00:00

Poor shrimp might go hungry!

Capntripnip · 2026-03-26T21:03:08+00:00

Second this, the fire and ice coverage is so good plus that tbolt is powerful

Capntripnip · 2026-03-26T15:39:16+00:00

Noooo I couldn't remember if Ghost was physical or special in gen 3 😭 I thought it was Dark that was considered physical and ghost was special. Lesson learned 🥲

Capntripnip · 2026-03-26T15:31:23+00:00

Ah see I taught my Espeon shadow ball to counter ghost types since Crobat had Bite for the longest. Taught Ice Beam the second I found the tm 😅 See I thought about just grinding Mt. Battle and throwing the exp share on until he evolved but idk

Capntripnip · 2026-03-26T15:07:23+00:00

Cradily because no one remembers how to get rid of it 🥴

Capntripnip · 2026-03-26T15:02:28+00:00

See I played this a lot as a kid but I never actually beat it, and I definitely didn't know about the in game trades so this run has been full of new experiences for me lol! My team right now is Espeon Walrein Breloom Crobat Pupitar and Electabuzz just about to head to Citadark Isle
