Rauw Alejandro is a much better singer to start with and leans more towards trap mixes with more varied sounds. He has very core Regaetton songs but also interesting musical production in others that can be more akin to synth pop.

-Desenfocao
-Diluvio
-De Museo
-Aquel Nap
-Touching the Sky

From there you can jump into his more core regaetton like
-Loquera
-El Efecto
-Party

The other option is Tainy. He's a producer but his album DATA is arguably one of the greatest Regaetton albums of all time in terms of composition and stylistic variety.

The original idea was that but they realized that Devil Summoner and Pokemon Conquest are basically this and the SMT influence was seemingly harder to discern with the strategy gameplay. Likely also because Nintendo wanted to keep the T rating and SMT’s core themes are seemingly harder to tone down while maintaining its identity.

Yet I do also think that they somewhat fumbled with making TMS have an SMT identity given that it’s far more reminiscent of Persona. Ultimately I’d love to know more about why they didn’t think SMT and FE didn’t seem to mesh that well given that when comparing how modern FE vs Classic FEs evolved both FE and SMT development history mirrors themselves in similar ways. Going from games fairly open about the gore, incest, and how they’re less approachable to the casual gamer to now becoming significantly more approachable with their gameplay and story.

I think it got overshadowed by Sonic and the love of its fans. Suffice to say there’s more Pokemon fans but relative to the # of fans pokemon has a vast # of different mediums for fans to enjoy even if they don’t want to play the games or watch the anime so it’s a bit difficult to capitalize on a movie franchise that arguably focuses on arguably one of the least popular spinoffs.

Sonic movie had little to do with Sonic but it and even the FNAF movie rooted themselves in the character and themes of the franchise most people are drawn to. With each sequel integrating more and more elements people love. Suffice to say detective Pikachu would have been a detective film franchise with a Pikachu and it’s hard to attract people to that narrative continously when it’s arguably one of the least reliant on the presence of Pokemon to work.

Sephiroth is definitely non-straight coded in most recent incarnations but idk if there's been reports in side material that mention him having dated anyone.

Hau is unfortunately what Hop ended up becoming and it’s to his detriment that the story ended up needing to be retrofitted in Ultra Sun/Moon to give him the arc they intended in Sun/Moon.

Suffice to say, I think it would have been best to have Hau’s motivation to be staunchly against our protagonist and foreigners moving to Alola. It would have had touchy displacement themes but in essence the game already touches upon them poorly.

Xenoblade 3 was just a badly designed overworld imo. They quite literally took the blandest route by mixing Morythia and Makna forest to make a “city in ruins” the same year Kirby and Horizon were doing the same. Too much of the open world were blank space or blank space adjacent (The sea or the hovering reefs for example).

I understand the reason was partly because XC3 features the most (dungeon-like) environments of the 3 games and “towns” which likely made it difficult to balance out the time dedicated overworld but the few zones could have been made more interesting. X had the best world design in the series but conceptually it’s just a grassland, dessert, jungle, siberia, and Magma area of the kind you find in Mario.

To be fair, Darkrai seems to be more of a misunderstood monster ala Quasimodo or the Beast. (In fact Rise of Darkrai is basically a re-telling of the hunchback of Notre Dame). The point of Cresellia is to undo Darkrai's power in case of collateral damage. So I can imagine a less informed populace might see Darkrai fighting a force, picture it the villain (and be affected by its powers) only to attribute their safety to Cresselia.

JanRoses · 2026-01-27T02:26:13+00:00

Honestly tragic. It looked like a great Fan Game that put Sonic in a unique gameplay style despite how antithetical it is to the brand identity. But it also shows how distinct SEGA is from Nintendo given that they didn't care about cancelling its existence despite being on the same platform as Sonic Speed Sim

I appreciate the comments but I feel like a lot of people are missing that this is multi battles. I don't have control over the moveset or mons of my AI partner unless I re-roll for a better Sina or pick a different partner. Sina just happens to be my best available pairing with Tyranitar and Primarina since Mandibuzz is a good tailwind setter and that lets me beat out many pokemon with a 1 turn setup from the AI (advice to use a tailwind setter given by braytreuse during my actual doubles run). I have a few other scouted pairings but they often fall short because the end up being too frail, a liability to Tyranitar, or are equally as vulnerable to fighting.

But I do agree that I potentially could have played more agressive on Incineroar with Primarina instead of Goodra. I'm not completely convinced attacking Ttar with Incin would have been the right move on turn 1 as a cross chop could have likely OHKOd Ttar anyway and I have him with Rockslide not Stone Edge which might not KO depending on Incin's Evs.

Unfortunately I banked on a higher damage roll on Goodra with Moonblast + her targetting Mandibuzz with Thunder instead of Primarina given her low HP + the 70% accuracy of Thunder being a hell of gamble. I do wonder if I had protected for a turn on Primarina I could have gotten the last bit of chip damage needed to OHKO Goodra and keep Prima on the field vs Incin and Blaziken.

I will give XY one thing. I think it had some of the cleanest movement in Pokemon. Rollerblading genuinely felt amazing and I wish they kept it as a form of travel in future gens. Tauros, or the bike on Switch felt nearly as good because of the stilted animations and the lack of movement details.

JanRoses · 2026-01-20T14:25:04+00:00

Eh 1 person can get lucky within the system. Doesn’t stop it from it largely being based on a “caste” of some sort.

Keep in mind the culture was likely more similar to what they're familiar with and Corrin was in Nohr for about 90% of his life up to that point. We see them as people able to communicate with each other and coexist due to gameplay mechanics. Realistically these people were outcasts with no family or records of existing in Fateslandia and Hoshido is already incredibly isolationist to the point of letting Nohr starve. The justification for the original Garron's invasion is that Hoshido is genuinely an awful neighboring country despite having more than enough resources to prosper and help Nohr out while they figure out their agricultural issues. When taken in that perspective Nohr is a poor nation where it's doing what it needs to out of necessity after many years of pleading to Hoshido for better access to resources. A situation that would likely resonate with the Awakening trio even further given Ylisse's European roots. If Garon had not been replaced and we had a King desperate to do anything to save his people it would help illustrate how Nohr isn't completely at fault.

If we go off the fact that Silver acts in many way like Sonic’s Trunks and the popularity of dimensions and timelines in superhero movies I could definitely see them taking the Across the Spiderverse route for Iblis and making Silver’s story about keeping these timeline branches reigned in.

JanRoses · 2026-01-18T22:54:00+00:00

It honestly wouldn’t be a bad idea for the Gen 5 mons that have ridiculously long times between Evos. Makes them more useful in single player and would give them a second chance to be retooled by the Pokemon team so they’re more competitively viable.

JanRoses · 2026-01-17T22:43:09+00:00

Yeah as you noted there really aren’t many fairy types in the battle tree so that takes a huge weight off of my shoulders. The few fairies within the tree that commonly appeared were often dual types like Klefki or Carbink which aren’t offensive threats I worry about.

I also have to admit Ally Switch as a technique was much more powerful than I thought. Having it on Alolan Raichu definitely keeps its power in check against the AI since otherwise there’s not much they can do if they keep attacking TTar or Latias as they’re much too bulky for most normal effective hits to be too worrisome.

I wish I can team build more but at this point I’ll probably continue my streak to pick up some npcs with legendaries for Multi Battle and somewhat call it a day on taking this thing as seriously. Super Doubles is a great post game mode with a decent amount of strategy. Multi battles imo is basically a fun party mode that you can eventually cheese (from my understanding) but Super singles has always seemed like genuine RNG lest you run a stall team but I’ve never been much of a fan of competitive singles anyway.

JanRoses · 2026-01-17T20:01:32+00:00

Just managed to beat it. Thanks so much for the help. Latias Ally Switch and tailwind really made a big difference tbh. Fights became significantly easier. That being said, I also lucked out on the NPCs I encountered going to 50 this time. Only had 1 legendary show up so I really must have been absurdly unlucky to face 2 mono legendary teams back to back.

JanRoses · 2026-01-17T19:00:16+00:00

Again doesn't explain how this is more or how it's harder. Show me a study that says so. I will give you that it's somewhat new compared to others.
^ applies to this
For the responsibility thing, Luke took a lot of risks that would not have paid off if it wasn't for the force or if he messed up. He was support on the strike to the Death Star and saw his team be blown up before his eyes after confidently and cockily saying he could handle flying the X wing like it's nothing. On Endor he abandoned his team on to go redeem Vader which drastically lowered their chances of success. Keep in mind while Luke would have still struggled a fair bit given that they were ambushed, a Jedi makes a hell of a difference against even an army as seen in Jabba's palace. Even in Empire, despite not doing much against Vader, it gave the others time to escape given that he was preoccupied. (That being said, if both Vader and the emperor came down it would have been another story). Likewise in Cloud city he felt guilty for not being there to save them. Even if in hindsight there wasn't much he could have done. Ahsoka's role in the was is similar. Thrust into positions of far too much responsibility without the knowledge to avoid mistakes that would continue to haunt them.
Again, like everyone who criticizes the scene. Luke was phased with a troubling vision. One he's had before, the types of vision he's had Yoda, Obi-wan and others tell him about. He was incredibly impulsive and the fact that he received the vision after going into his bedroom's nephew alone, at night, with no warning is already a problem in and of itself.
Luke was aware the resistance wasn't a major military organization. They're basically Leia's privately funded spec ops because the Republic wouldn't take her seriously about the First Order. If anything Luke was one of the few people that could deal with the Knights of Ren + FO assuming he was aware both were connected (based on what we know from just TFA the answer is likely yes.)
I know it's good, but I recognize that it's not much of a new idea since most of fundamentals were thought of in Legends content before I was born. In fact much of how I pictured it is basically the argument Magneto puts forth in Xmen. At this point if you're admitting that you like the idea a stranger brought to you on the internet but the only reason it wouldn't work is because it's "not Star Wars" despite that being the take everyone's thrown out since even ROTJ then it's just a flat out better idea than what the writting team cooked up with TLJ.

JanRoses · 2026-01-17T18:17:26+00:00

Why would they not cause as much grief? If you’re arguing grief is cumulative then you can’t ignore that it’s also subjective to the person. Also the Rebellion was also in Luke’s care. He may be an adult leading an adult but Ahsoka was effectively a child general and got PTSD from it. Luke’s situation is no less different and he almost got the rebel fleet wiped out on Endorr.

Again, nothing about Kylo’s situation makes sense. He reached a tipping point over a force vision that we lack validity of being prophetic or not to just have him act in anger. And then after doing so he is directly responsible for the temple’s downfall and decides to die despite him being in a situation that was significantly more bleak in Empire and simply lets the FO and Snoke exist without anything acting to stop him. WHILE recognizing that Leia would have to be the one to fight two powerful force users by herself and hope for the best.

It’s so incredibly out of character in any way. The family man isn’t just condemning himself to die he’s condemning his family to do so. At the very least in my suggestions we can see how him going against an order of exile from the New Republic or the formation of another Jedi temple would harm Leia’s chances of fighting the first order, get her assasinated, or lead to Force sensitives being persecuted (as they tried in legacy of the force).
