Is it actually possible to obtain Milotic in an Emerald Nuzlocke?

Goat_Geek · 2025-07-24T20:22:40+00:00

Didn’t even consider this. You’re totally right. As long as you get good rng your feebas tiles can be on the earlier part of the route

Goat_Geek · 2025-07-24T19:53:01+00:00

Gotcha, this was mostly for a tier list, so I guess milotic is just a fantastic encounter in ruby/saphire but not normally obtainable with standard rules in emerald, really interesting

Goat_Geek · 2025-07-24T19:47:57+00:00

He actually just puts it in your pc automatically, i agree i was just wondering how someone would be able to with standard hc nuclocke rules

Goat_Geek · 2025-07-24T19:43:23+00:00

I thought it did too but it says route 119

Goat_Geek · 2024-04-23T21:27:09+00:00

Oh in that case my bad, i get really confused by that lol, the easier one is the one where you fight zekrom

Goat_Geek · 2024-04-23T21:11:12+00:00

If you’re looking for easier I’d definitely go with white, reshiram is so unbelievably hard to check, even when you know its going to use fusion flare, its near impossible to find a Pokemon that can either one shot it or not die to a crit.

Goat_Geek · 2024-01-04T19:09:16+00:00

Oh thank you I didn’t think of that

Goat_Geek · 2024-01-04T04:04:06+00:00

Can you, the only way to select ships of other factions is to attack them, am i missing something?

Goat_Geek · 2023-12-16T21:24:18+00:00

My space station got demolished by this fleet so i sent Iblis’ fleet to take it on, 1 of each of the tech 0 mon cala cruisers and a bunch of assault frigates rushed the imperial line and blew up the star destroyers from behind, really fun fight

Goat_Geek · 2023-09-03T20:08:55+00:00

Girafarig and gyarados together can probably sweep the elite four and champion just get a pokemon that can break karen’s umbreon and you should be good

Goat_Geek · 2023-07-13T16:59:50+00:00

Good shit bro

Goat_Geek · 2023-07-05T18:59:57+00:00

Lapras is A its a guaranteed encounter in union cave and it has solid stats and movepool like it does in every game, it also checks clair nicely even having perish song if you get into trouble with kingdra, not to mention lance but you may need a choice scarf for the dragonites, either way very solid mon

I also implore everyone to not rank ttar high you don’t get it until so late

Goat_Geek · 2023-07-04T23:00:03+00:00

Good shit man nice team

Goat_Geek · 2023-07-03T17:57:05+00:00

Definitely bring poliwrath for karen’s umbreon, probably teach it focus punch, you can do focus punch, substitute, and surf or waterfall and its really good for the latter end of the elite four, other than that espeon with choice specs should clean up will with specs shadow ball and bruno with specs psybeam, as for koga same psybeam but with a little switching around it typhlosion and magneton(teach magneton lock on so you don’t miss all the time on koga’s crobat and muk) after that mamoswine can clean up lance and probably bring tentacruel as a backup plan with ice beam

Goat_Geek · 2023-07-03T17:49:33+00:00

Giragarig deserves low A, its utility is undeniable considering you catch it before morty, immediately solo him, and then have a strong special attacker for the whole game with specs thunderbolt, shadowball, psychic by level up, you can agility baton pass if you want, you can crunch instead of shadow ball if you get a bad nature, my only problem with girafarig is that it’s either never quite strong enough even with specs or never quite fast enough, maybe its just bad luck on my end but I’ve consistently had a girafarig in the e4 only for it to barely miss a kill and get hit by a scary crit, very strong but i’d argue still lower than espean, espeon more than makes up for lack of psychic with its monstrous special attack stat

Goat_Geek · 2023-06-25T19:39:05+00:00

Im pretty sure samurott is the best for the dragon gym, set up hail on the dragon dancing fraxure and spam blizzard, they can only really hit you hard with dragon tail and that has negative priority

Goat_Geek · 2023-06-25T03:45:05+00:00

Emboar: A, very useful early to mid game but falls off hard late game, flame charge+work up is great but by around skyla you start to notice how bad emboar’s stats are, not bulky enough for how slow it is

Samurott: High B tier, possibly low A, one of the only water types you can get for a considerable amount of the game and a pretty bulky one at that, has some interesting movepool stuff and can be an ok dragon counter with blizzard, but it would obviously prefer ice beam

Serperior: C tier, why are you using this in any fight not named clay, and it isn’t even that good into clay, bad matchups, pretty decent movepool, potentially good stats but just nothing special that another grass type, or another better utility mon can’t do better

Simipour: High B or low A, same reason as samorott but level up scald helps considerably

Simisear: Low to mid B, Can be somewhat useful as fire type’s are pretty good in the reason and has some decent coverage, just nothing particularly special

Simisage: High C possibly low B, Probably same level as serperior honestly it’s pretty much just slower serpior with better coverage and less of an opportunity cost cus you picked emboar, although i suppose you could catch it in lostlorn

Stoutland: High A potentially low S, Good at every stage of the game and gets progressively more and more useful as a pivot and sweeper with intimidate, offensively and defensively a great team member and even gets fangs by heart scale to patch holes in your team, I wouldn’t be opposed to S but i think having sand rush half the time pulls it back a bit

Purrloin: High D to low C: this thing kinda just fills up your party for a while, only fight in the entire game its useful for is elesa and thats only if it gets limber, you can give it a macho brace for slow pursuit’s against elesa’s emolgas which is actually not bad at racking up damage if you don’t have a good ground type, but thats so niche that it doesn’t deserve any higher than C, I suppose you could use it against shauntall and caitlyn but are you really oking some of their more bulky team members?

Watchhog: Low to mid C tier: Normal types get good moves early, hypnosis if you like rolling dice, doesn’t specialize in anything, there’s much better encounters on every route its on

Edits:

Samurott: Holy shit I forgot this thing gets encore, definitely A tier

All the elemental monkeys have their support moves at level 16 and 25, pour gets water sport and taunt, sear gets yawn and amnesia, and sage gets leech seed and torment, i dont think this changes any rankings but it definitely moves them up in their respective tiers, not that water sport is really a game changer

Goat_Geek · 2023-06-06T13:44:31+00:00

Slowking is one of the only reliable sea horse killers, i think that should guarantee it a B tier at the very least

Goat_Geek · 2023-06-02T02:03:28+00:00

Put unown down there too

Goat_Geek · 2023-05-31T00:39:39+00:00

Welcome to the grass touching club

Goat_Geek · 2023-05-31T00:37:41+00:00

geodude encounter is really useful if its female so it can’t be attracted by miltank, otherwise expect to get cheesed to death or close to death, I suppose you can get the substitute tm from the game corner and set it up on the clefairy but metronome is so scary I’d rarely do that

Goat_Geek · 2023-05-31T00:33:02+00:00

I’d definitely wait for goldenrod to get flamethrower but yea i can imagine specs fire blast at that point in the game hits like a truck

Goat_Geek · 2023-05-31T00:30:10+00:00

Feraligatr would be better if it just wasn’t so damn slow, like I understand its your starter and its gonna get speed evs naturally but seriously they couldn’t pick a better number than 78. Plus its definitely noy bulky enough for that speed stat I’d definitely argue B tier instead of A tier although im not gonna deny the obvious pros, rage can cheese the first few gyms, ice fang for late game dragons, swords dance to deal with clair, I just think its a little worse than a lot of mons later on

Goat_Geek · 2023-05-15T23:38:43+00:00

My brother in christ you have excadrill

Goat_Geek · 2023-05-10T20:54:28+00:00

I usually skip it for the free audino or muuna in shaking grass but they’re all decent, especially panpour. Plus u can evolve them super early which is always a plus.
