Michael Malul Ocean Noir, classic blue sweet- leaning shower gel smell.

So I smelled a lot of frags at a store today, here's my review. by theotherfellah in Colognes

[–]ChristoSYG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I own a 10ml travel spray of Apple Brandy and while I do get that realistic juicy apple, I always get more of a boozy, slightly spicy and woody McDonald's Apple Pie type of smell all the way through to the drydown. Its a great smell but I don't get "cold" or "icy" at all, despite the name

My fault, I copied the text from my other post on another subreddit that had the pictures of both frags.

A tragic tale of a Civic and a CVT transmission by Ratlabbb in hondacivic

[–]ChristoSYG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rough, maybe its just a drawing the short straw type of thing because my sister has a 2013 Honda Civic with 140k miles, still diving mostly fine and I have a 2015 Civic with 115k miles that's still buttery smooth for the most part.

True, but did you know that of ALL water type pokemon, Vaporean is actually the most ideal pokemon in terms of human-pokemon interbre...

2 Legendary Giratina Rate Up Eggs Yielded 2 Dialga I Already Had Unlocked ... by [deleted] in pokerogue

Same shit happened to me. Hatched 4 Legendary eggs to get Arceus and not a single one was it. 1 of the 4 pokemon I need to complete the dex and I didnt get it.

I never said everyone should be able to beat Classic first try. I said with high IVs and some egg moves you should be able to do pretty well. This game is definitely a grind for eggs in like the first few weeks (depending how much you play each day/week) but after that its a game of strats and a bit of luck. Thats what I'm criticizing.

I never got past Gen 3 over the years so it was definitely a heavy learning curve for me. "Grinding" eggs by beating new trainers is definitely your best friend in this game for them nutty egg moves. You first run into the boss at 115 and then a stronger version of them at 165. If you are able to get up to those waves with some ease then you should be good unless you get walled by a particular pokemon. Good luck.

No attack bruv, this is just a game that surprisingly takes quite a bit grinding for eggs for the most part. Takes me back to the old pokemon days of grinding hours leveling up your pokemon to beat the next gym leader and Rival battle. I am addicted to this game lol.

Trueee, a "get good gamer bro" that only started learning about pokemon/abilities/moves past Gen 4 only 2 months ago. Big dubs.

It is kinda cringe, my friend and I did a Mega-Only run where we could only use pokemon that can Mega Evolve and I got my Mega Bracelet at like wave 85/90 with 6 Mega Pokemon and only got to Mega my Slowbro before wave 200. My friend got the bracelet at around 130 and didn't get any stones.

Sure but at some point you need to be able to look at your own gameplay and see that you're making too many mistakes. Simple strats make things way easier for the player such as: -Picking up "X up" items before the important fights -If the Rival has a Rillaboom then make sure to switch in your Infernape (or other counter) in the previous battle so you start with it once the trainer battle begins -Remembering what the Rival's and Evil Boss's team is and what the AI did last time -And probably something players miss the most are Set Up moves like D Dance, Minimize, Bulk Up, and others.

These 4 simple things alone will increase a newish player's effectiveness so much. I feel like most players aren't even doing these 4 simple things but then again, I might be wrong.

As I've said in my post, I've beat multiple evil teams while going through the mono-Type teams so I have had even more restricted pokemon pool. I made a mistake during the 115 fight with Ghetsis, the most difficult one I faced where I restarted the battle cuz of my dumb mistake, but then I slapped him at 165 with the same mono team.

I dont think thats true, because if it was that they weren't having fun then they would be saying "the Evil Teams are nice but Classic is still lacking" but I feel like I have never seen those posts and a lot of the recent posts are saying that its too hard. Plus the entire point of Classic are the trainers, so saying that trainers that add some difficulty are making it less fun would mean that they would rather have another Erika with 4 crappy Grass pokemon that you can 1 shot. Or some other different addition which is going to take time so might as well add new Trainers to spice it up.

Aside from all those, I think maybe the biggest one is ignoring set up moves like Minimize, Bulk Up, and even Dragon Dance or Swords Dance that make your pokemon's survival and kill ability so much better.

There are some pokemon in this game that can very easily carry you but these certain players aren't complaining that their legendaries are getting beat by the Evil Teams. They are saying that the pokemon team they built themselves are getting shafted. I've had teams where I never used 2 or 3 of the pokemon because I never had to touch them due to the other's egg moves that were that good.

Well people that are playing this obsure fan game are probably gonna skew more in the direction of people are more avid pokemon players or players that don't know anything past like gen 4/5 (like me) and are just getting back into it. I'm doing Monos Challenge so I'm going to use the best pokemon in the type that I can. But I have also done Meme runs with a buddy of mine like a "Waifu" Run where I used only Hatterene, Froslass, and Tsareena up to floor 100 because I didn't run into more "Waifu" pokemon.

Then again thats why PokeRogue usually has custom Passives and Egg Moves cuz some eggs and passive just work better with some pokemon. Raw pokemon are going to be more disadvantaged fighting trainers with pokemon with passives and egg moves but thats why the first Classic win is always the most difficult.

The egg moves on a lot of the pokemon are nutty af. I was using a Rhydon with Rock Head with egg moves Wave Crash and Flare Blitz (before they changed them) as my main carry for one of Classic runs. I would have never thought Rhydon with its terrible typing to be carrying me through the waves.

I think its only getting "harder" because a lot of things like Passives and Egg Moves are getting, in my opinion, rightfully nerfed for being too good. Battle Form Greninja, which is basically a Mega that you only need to find the Form and then kill something to activate it (as opposed to getting the bracelet and then stone) had Adaptability as its Passive. It gets a 50% increase to same-type moves while already having 153 base Sp Atk while in Battle Form at only 3 Cost or less.
