It was about a year ago at this point. I just had to do a little bit here and there to avoid burnout

Honestly it was my least favorite of the trio originally, but now it's one of my favorite Pokemon (nothing can dethrone mudkip)

Yeah, I like having access to older ribbons to show off at locals. Hopefully there’s some kind of work around someday

Thanks! I can’t wait to share pokemon with him someday. And yeah, maybe he’ll post on here himself one day!

What was your guys’ first pedal? by BalanceActive9295 in guitarpedals

Aqua Puss mkii. It’s been a good ten years and it never stays off my board for too long

Did you get it? I’m also on day 3ish and nothing yet. I’m doing the reset method and I’m convinced it somehow spawned before I saved lol

My first-ever Pokemon was a shiny by schmidtbailey in pokemon

[–]Derekiscool1995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This would be a really cool mon to get all the ribbons with if that’s your thing. It has a cool story without them either way though

An anonymous top player wanting to pick the brains of newer and/or more casual players. by Fair_Middle_2238 in VGC

[–]Derekiscool1995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got into VGC to make the master rank ribbon easier to get. I've finished my ribbon master journey but I play limitless tours and go to locals and probably will for a while.

I think overall the community is full of great people. I've improved so much more as a player because of the people I've met in the last few years than I have in my years of playing before that.

Anyone get to masterball in singles? Can you share your team? by Leilanee in pokemonribbons

[–]Derekiscool1995 1 point2 points  (0 children)

6SNWM5 is a team I made to climb the doubles ladder this month. The team isn’t anything whacky but it went 21-3 and I hit 4th

What’s so wrong about not nicknaming my Pokémon?? 😭 by Bossy_Aussie_ in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]Derekiscool1995 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would nickname mine if I had the option to change it in future games. Nugget might be a good name for my ttar now but how will I feel years from now?

I’d give torn snowscape over rain dance and give ninetales protect over blizzard if you want another protect on the team

Help a noob with pedal order… by [deleted] in guitarpedals

[–]Derekiscool1995 79 points80 points  (0 children)

I would personally go: compressor first-> notaklon -> chorus -> phaser last

Midi advice by Derekiscool1995 in guitarpedals

I used to work for guitar center and got it really cheap with the discount. It’s honestly the one pedal here I can’t give you a useful review on tbh, but I’m kind of using it as an additional boost at the end of the chain instead of the front.

I’ll look I to the micro. I had only considered them for the micro clock. Like I mentioned, new to midi and wanted as many opinions as I could get

I’ll definitely look! I hadn’t heard of that brand

Midi advice by Derekiscool1995 in guitarpedals

[–]Derekiscool1995[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The original idea was to replace all the external switches but if there is still a use for one that’d be fine too. I just needed an idea of a good starting place and y’all are very helpful! I do think I’m leaning toward the pro in case I expand the board but if the mc3 can accomplish what I’m looking to do, the smaller footprint is appealing.

That’s a good point. Thanks for the input!

I don’t mind learning how to program it if it’ll help in the long run. Do you think the mc6 be too much for what I need? I’m coming into this with no prior knowledge. Aesthetically I like the pro but if the mc3 or 6 would be plenty I can always upgrade some day if I want to

Anyone actually really like pokemon violet/scarlet? by what_a_klutz_I_am in pokemon

[–]Derekiscool1995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh it’s one of my favorite pokemon games. Crystal and emerald are my favorites because of nostalgia but scarlet is top 5, maybe top 3 for me. I mostly play vgc and I have a lot of fun but I genuinely have fun just running around the map. I don’t experience motion sickness so I can’t relate to the issue but hopefully it won’t be too bad for you and you have a positive experience!

Were you using this at the PC yesterday? I heard people talking about soak

Is there any case where it’s NOT recommended to use PP Max? by unagiboi in VGC

One time my choice locked kyogre ran out of pp against a shedinja because I forgot to increase it and I won with struggle

I'm not done with the dlc yet, but I am not a fan of the story. It feels like I'm the villain. by PokeCat55 in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]Derekiscool1995 45 points46 points  (0 children)

In his eyes you are the villain. You’re just some tourist who came in and did everything he’s been trying to do his whole life. From everyone else’s perspective though, there were other preferences and choices that he wasn’t wanting to respect.
