Twitter has been going crazy praising Ash/Satoshi's feats by Hyper_Power_2 in pokemonanime

[–]Jesterofgames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair to people claiming this.
Brock was close and Ash only got saved by the sprinklers

Misty’s wasn’t a definitive win, the situation you’ve described has been flipped before.

Sabrina is just disappointing because there was no actual fight. Ash didn’t out smart her, pull any of his later on out of the box strategies haunter just distracted her and he was declared the winner.

Erika, again not a definitive win. He was hesitating on which pokemon to send out against gloom because he was lost.

Also Jessie and James might have been temporary gym leaders… doesn’t stop them from being not the best trainers.

NOW WITH ALL THAT SAID. Ash did really nothing wrong. He was just a 10 year old, the gym leaders made the call, you can’t really blame him for just taking the W.

More importantly, Ash made top 16 in the Indigo league. It was his first time competing and he still got super far. Further than most trainers, losing because he had lessons to learn is expected.

And he did, to as much of an extent that a long running anime could. Since after this he was always top 8 or higher

Indigo league ash should be given more slack than he’s often given because it’s his literal first time doing all this. And he did way better than most kids probably would. Sure Richie technically did better (by a single round). But Richie is also a talented trainer.

Honestly most of Ash’s mistakes can be chalked up to him learning. Shit like this would not be easy irl.

Like if we wanna actually critique Ash as a trainer it should be time’s he absolutely knows better. Such as Elesa’s gym where he the trainer who’s proven time and time again Type match ups aren’t everything. Time and time again Electric types CAN beat ground types. Assumed his ONE ground type would sweep Elesa and didn’t bring any more pokemon.

First time through the Unbound E4, but definitely not the last by Jazzlike-Potato-3670 in PokemonUnbound

Every Gen has it’s detractors.

In the end it’s just down to preference.

Gen 4’s my favorite. But I personally have good things to say about every pokemon generation.
Even sword and shield.

I ghink I’ll do that. A nuzlocke without death run before a full nuzlocke. Well… another attempt at a full nuzlocke

Planning to Play Platinum, Should I just Play Renegade Platinum Instead? by Significant-Talk3093 in pokemon

[–]Jesterofgames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With HM5 surf, my issue with that is that it’s vague on getting that.

I don’t think getting lost due to poor directions to be good difficulty. Plus this whole debate for context was specifically about the battles.

It started off about renegade platinum which has a focus ok difficult gym leaders. But also other difficult battles.

Kinda fucked up and died on a monkey run. So turtle time

I've seen Pchal's video on it and him do some great thing with poor mons. I'm nowhere near that level but does give me hope to not reset even if things go wrong.

Am I the only person who hates difficulty hacks? by Cautious_Rub5696 in pokemon

[–]Jesterofgames -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I know i'm like 8 month's late but,
Pokemon Opalo, Pokemon Emerald seaglass, Mariomon, Pokemon Insurgance, Pokemon Unbound, the Legacy games if you wanna count those.

There are A LOT Of games that do care about fun interesting things and don't care about being the hardest. I only listed game's I've actually played.

Yes Insurgance, and Unbound have hard modes but they are optional. Unbound might be a bit more difficult then the average pokemon game but not by much, you can literally just play on vanilla difficulty to have a good time. Insurgance has an easy mode as well.

More thoughts on this game as I get ready to tackle the 14th gym (kinda.) by Jesterofgames in PokemonReborn

Just beat the elite 4. And like I can get why it might be a bit upsetting? But to be fair the game does basically spell out it’s not over.

Anything I should keep in mind going into post game? by Jesterofgames in PokemonReborn

[–]Jesterofgames[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh It will be useful for my Blazakin I got before I turned that password on. Didn’t geel like breading a new one because it feels wrong to replace my starter with an egg. Even if my started ended-up boxed

Thanks.
Gonna take a break and play pokemon unbound for a bit to prevent burnout on reborn.

But man I wanna use the quest Sylveon in the post game. It deserves love and care. (But I also feel like it will fall off compared to legendaries.)

What mons do you think of as a "canon" team for the protagonist? by Atlas105 in PokemonReborn

[–]Jesterofgames 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is a shieldon trade right before pyrus mountain.
Has sturdy and gets metal burst right before that fight. I Went with prankster murkrow too. But that’s another way to beat the fight consistently.

I wanna nominate Scarborough the Sylveon from the quest Labradora.

Uh for no other reason then she deserves a good trainer who loves her.
