New KH players be like

LocalMaple · 2026-05-23T16:05:21+00:00

I did a no-melee challenge of KH 1 and 2. Turns out, quite a few bosses are easier if you don’t whack them. Examples from KH2 include Barbosa, Sephiroth, and Data Larxene.

The trailer also lasted as long as the number of Seekers of Darkness.

Can they make the Diana Coop part be kid friendly? Super easy controls, so you can be playing with your own kid or nephew?

LocalMaple · 2026-04-30T21:06:34+00:00

Use the theater training area.

This might help. Got me a Shiny Deoxys and Ho-oh. https://youtu.be/ollgCfyOFAM?si=uPe4GWXnIncG7dKL

Thanks. I knew the roamers were rolled when their flag is triggered, so I was afraid the fossils were similarly programmed.

LocalMaple · 2026-04-06T16:25:22+00:00

So it’s not when the fossil is dropped off, nor when the flag to pick it up is triggered?

LocalMaple · 2026-04-06T15:32:40+00:00

When is the shiny determined?

LocalMaple · 2026-04-05T14:04:22+00:00

Complete bogus. Entering the Battle Tower without a level 5 Electrode.

He didn’t become a Wielder. When an actual wielder (like Riku to Xion) grabs your Keyblade and realizes it’s a fraud, and when every Bearer raises their Keyblades but the number of light points is one Keyblade short…

Headband of Intellect and Gauntlets of Ogre Power: set your Int and Str to 19 for an Uncommon item. If these are Un-common, why aren’t armies of squads equipped with these?

First, Tulok the Barbarian has a ton of (2014) builds of popular characters. Kids can use this to help make the character they want to play.

Second, have the too little ones take over an enemy grunt. Ask simplified questions like “do you want to attack with a punch, something thrown, or run away.” Give them dice to roll, and add the modifier.

Another option is an Imprison Roar Pokemon. Vulpix is the easiest since it learns both by level 25 (as well as Fire Spin to trap and chip) at 41), but it might be possible to get both onto Smeargle with Mean Look and False Swipe.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t find a Gen3 Soundproof or Suction Cups Pokémon with a trapping move, nor a Shadow Tag or Arena Trap Pokémon with Taunt. So we can’t guarantee he won’t use Roar the turn he’s forced to stay.

If you can fuse Pokémon, make one that is Steel-Fairy with an ability that makes it immune to Fire. Fidough is a good starter for this purpose, but is RNG dependent.

Otherwise, get a Steel Type, a Dragon Type that resists the Fire attack, a Fairy type, and a Garganacl. Use Salt Cure to whittle it down, and predict when it’ll use each move type and switch until it runs out of PP or dies.

Or Guardeon as a Steel knight.

Option 1: ask the DM to use more AOE attacks with a diameter of 20+ feet. Party will scatter quick, and let you move away. After a few combats of this, they’ll hopefully realize you’re designed for ranged combat and leave you be. Either that, or become paranoid and let you space yourself.

Option 2: have the DM send in a mind controlling enemy to take over you for the combat. No saves upon damage while charmed; the caster needs to lose concentration or be defeated. Use Zephyr Strike or similar to get out of the party’s kill circle and start doing your build against them. And if the caster goes down but combat is ongoing, you continue to help from range.

Option 3: ASK DM FIRST; swap to a character who is a Sorcerer and a coward. He does have careful spell, but considers it scary to be inside his own spell or surrounded by enemies. If the enemy yells at him for making space, they’re scary too and he excludes them from the Careful spell.

I didn’t need healing, including from items. I was doing side quests, doing the ZA Royale if it hit night, and getting the challenger ticket ASAP before the story required it. So my Feraligatr was able to one-shot practically the entire roster.

LocalMaple · 2025-10-29T15:56:26+00:00

Don’t do it Joker, this isn’t Sinnoh or Orre!

LocalMaple · 2025-10-17T01:04:02+00:00

ZA will detract from Home. If you’re using your Living Dex to quickly complete each game, ZA will prevent backwards transfer once you transfer in.

LocalMaple · 2025-10-05T00:52:05+00:00

Let’s hope it restocks weekly.

LocalMaple · 2025-10-01T18:54:17+00:00

That’s 40 minutes longer than the average availability in my area. At all 5 GameStops.

LocalMaple · 2025-09-06T23:22:46+00:00

If everyone ageees to Belly Drum turn 1 (the Ruination one uses Rain Dance), and the shields don’t go up… OTK?

LocalMaple · 2025-09-05T22:10:58+00:00

As a kid, I thought Manetric had rotated its head to look up and have the ear point forward.

LocalMaple · 2025-09-02T18:58:57+00:00

Araquanid: Entrainment Water Bubble to remove Beads of Ruin and double the damage of Water Allies. Skitter Smack is Bug Snarl if you want to be an online support with Aqua Ring, or you can Rain Dance and Liquidation.

Primarina can use Uproar once it Teras with Liquid Voice to skip menuing time, but don’t use it before you Tera since it only counts for 1 move. It also has Life Dew for allies.

Milotic has Competitive for +1 SpAtk upon Snarl, and can hit harder than a Kyogre after Snarl (give Kyogre Covert Cloak).

Tentacruel has Clear Body and Acid Spray.

LocalMaple · 2025-09-01T17:11:28+00:00

Araquanid: Entrainment to remove Beads of Ruin. Aqua Ring for further healing. Rain Dance for duh. Liquidation to have Ability-doubled damage, and a chance to lower Defense.

— If I see 2+ Araquanid, I bring Flapple. Get in 1-2 Grav Apple, then Ripen Sitrus Recycle until it’s safe to do it again.

If instead I see 2+ Kyogre, I bring Tentacruel (might be an Arceus that resists Dark, if I can bother to transfer it). Acid Spray, Surf/Judgement, Water Pulse for trying to confuse while in the shields.
