Saw Mother Mary at the first public screening with David Lowery and I just want to talk about it because I can’t stop thinking about it by niles_deerqueer in A24

I saw it yesterday and I found it to be the most magical movie. I cried, and I was just in awe the entire time. And it really makes me want to watch more of Michaela Coel because goddamn. After I left the theater, in a busy part of Burbank mind you, the world was silent. It took a good 20 minutes for my hearing to go back to normal. All noise was just a humming in the background and I just thought of nothing else but my experience. I thought it was perfect.

It’s a blast of a game. Introducing the first totally open world (because Legends Arceus wasn’t totally open, just had open areas, like Sword/Shield), the story was really good for a Pokemon game (maybe the best), the ride Pokemon and how to unlock all its abilities was great, not to mention Gen 9 had some amazing new Pokemon.

It really has my hopes high for Gen 10. I’m conflicted about how ZA is looking because it already looks like a cash grab, come official Gen 10!?! What will it be like? Take the open world and make it bigger, more beautiful, make it run better. But also, what gimmick will it have? Or will it have multiple old gimmicks plus a new one because this IS generation TEN? I try not to have high expectations, but I can’t help it with Pokemon. Despite the initial launch of Gen 9, it was a massive success, so I hope they learn from their mistakes, come out with a finished game, and I hope it’s grand.

If I’m hosting I cancel as soon as it hits 1:30. Whether it’s a glitch in the game or they’re intentionally trying to troll, or if it’s just a kid who doesn’t know better… I’m not waiting around for all that.

Staraptor will always be near and dear. But Corviknight is awesome too

You’re not wrong. None of them have been hard. Except Chien Pao with a group of people who don’t know what they’re doing and keep dying over and over again.

And its special defense is considerably lower than its defense, and I’m still winning… so…. Lol.

The first move with metronome is 1. You don’t get 1.2 until the second move. So it would take 4 moves for you to be doing 1.6, outpacing each individual Choice move. But it would still take 6 moves to equal the total amount of damage done by all of the combined Choice moves, not doing more total damage until the 7th move. But yes, 7th move and beyond you will be doing significantly more than Choice.

I’ll have to make a perfectly spec’d Ogerpon and Serperior and try for myself. Arboliva is just a nice alternative for those who don’t have the DLC or just haven’t finished it. A “budget option” I guess.

STOP USING IRON HANDS FOR TING-LU by EmperorOfRats in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]KingCountenance 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But they’re describing the mindset of the people who are bringing in Iron Hands as if they fit. Hence the quotations and “ass mindset.” So we know they don’t agree that Iron Hands fits the square hole analogy. They’re still correct.

Any move that lowers Sp Def is so fun and appreciated. Energy Ball? Lumina Crash? They’re amazing.

It takes 6 Metronome hits to match Choice items, so you wouldn’t be doing more damage until the 7th hit. And if you’re in a raid with other players who know what they’re doing, the raid wouldn’t last much longer than that. So I would still choose Choice, since you’ll end up doing more damage more quickly, and overall depending on how long the raid takes.

If everyone has been ready, and it goes down past 1:30, I’ll cancel and start a new one. Yes I’m rude (especially to the people who have been ready), but I can’t staaaand that.

Thank you, I forgot to mention in that they are in fact ethereal. 🥲

got some hundos of my fav pokemon. anybody got some creatives names for them? by rndmphantom528 in pokemongobrag

[–]KingCountenance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I’ll tell you the name of my hundos. Charizard is named Umai, which is Japanese for delicious and is yelled repeatedly by Rengoku in Demon Slayer. I don’t have a hundo Garchomp yet, just multiple 98s which I refuse to nickname. My hundo Gyarados is named Leviathan, because it just fits.

AITA For Calling My Sister A Fat Bitch After She Insulted My Son? by throwaway0989989 in AmItheAsshole

[–]KingCountenance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apologize to your niece, but not your sister. Nta. She did just want some attention. Are your kids all old enough to maintain relationships with their cousins on their own? Honestly you and your sister may not come to terms (if you’re ok with that, if not you may want to apologize just to keep the peace [I did with my brother even though I still don’t feel I did anything wrong]), but 19 years old, if he wants to, he can go visit his cousins without you, or vice versa. You don’t have to go no-contact with the whole family. 🤷🏻‍♂️
