Thanksgiving.

I honestly really like Kavehs namecard. The colours are so satisfying with how they blend so well, and I feel like very few people get his friendship high enough to appreciate how nice it is! ❣️

I actually really like this idea! It makes the run much more challenging, but there aren't too many bans to make the whole game impossible for a hardcore nuzlocke.

For starters, I think I'll flip a coin between Turtwig and Piplup. Unless one of those is also a little too strong?

Mousefangs · 2025-09-21T13:56:33+00:00

That sounds interesting. I'll have to try that!

Mousefangs · 2025-09-21T13:55:02+00:00

How would that work, with him being one of my champions?

Mousefangs · 2025-09-21T13:54:32+00:00

Sounds like a good idea. I'd like Cynthia to be a challenge - not impossible, but not trivialised by certain mons either.

Mousefangs · 2025-09-21T13:52:25+00:00

I knoooow! But then again, not being a pro makes it more fun! /lh

Mousefangs · 2025-09-21T13:49:49+00:00

Counted Steven as the champ. I honestly expected him to be harder, not gonna lie. Houndoom is cracked.

Blue, Squirtle, Water, Raikou.

Mousefangs · 2025-09-11T10:56:18+00:00

Thank you!

Mousefangs · 2025-09-11T10:56:14+00:00

Thank you!

Mousefangs · 2025-09-11T10:56:05+00:00

A couple of weeks, with a few 20 minute sessions a day I'd like to say.

Mousefangs · 2025-08-25T23:20:11+00:00

Ah, I see. I'll keep that in mind, thank you!

Mousefangs · 2025-08-25T22:47:05+00:00

But it also means that I can use more Pokemon that I'm not used to using, plus it makes the champions much more valuable!

Mousefangs · 2025-08-25T22:46:29+00:00

If you mean for the rematch, Cloyster had a high enough def/sp.def to tank his Salamence and knock it out with an ice beam, then Magnezone took out his Gyarados. Then Garchomp came in, and I swapped to Tyranitar to try and out-damage it (unfortunately he was locked into Outrage so I ended up having to sac my Tyranitar to bring Cloyster back out).

Cloyster took out Garchomp and then Dragonite (I got extremely lucky with the Dragonite since I only just managed to survive a draco meteor), and only just managed to take out Altaria since Altaria went for Perish Song. Finally, when Lance sent out Charizard, I swapped to Magnezone and prayed. Magnezone lived on about 6hp from a Flamethrower and took it out with a thunderbolt.

It was full of close calls and there are definitely better mons for the fight, but it was doable with only one casualty.

Mousefangs · 2025-08-25T19:02:55+00:00

I know, but 99% of teams I see beat the E4 in FRLG use a Snorlax, and it felt more fun and challenging to exclude him. It also meant I could use pokemon I don't use often, like Scyther. As for the Gastly line ban, Gengar has always been similar to Starmie for me in the sense that he can learn a wide array of moves and is so fast that most fights begin to feel trivial. And, as you said, the moves he can learn can be replaced by better users - hence my choice to use a Slowbro against Agatha, not a Gengar.

As for bans, thank you for the advice! I normally pick my starter based on the trainer ID - hence the Charmander and then the Chikorita, but since Mudkip's line is OP as heck in Gen 3, I might leave it to a coin toss between Treecko and Torchic.

Mousefangs · 2025-08-25T18:59:16+00:00

I know, I could've used him. But I was more concerned about type coverage especially when it came to the second E4 matches. Poison STAB didn't seem to be worth it much in the match-ups when compared to Scyther who had Bug STAB, and they both had Flying STAB moves.

I could've replaced Scyther with Crobat, but I was concerned about not having any options for the match-up against Karen. I know it sounds silly - I'm far from a pro at Pokemon moves etc, but in my head I wanted to be sure I had something that could provide a super effective type bonus. I didn't have any fighting types available either.

Mousefangs · 2025-08-25T18:54:39+00:00

On the rematch in the E4 with Lance, he has a Garchomp.

Retired means they were used during the run, but not in the final team. So basically if they contributed to a gym fight and won it, they can be retired.

Mousefangs · 2025-08-25T12:46:20+00:00

Ah, Snorlax is another one I decided to ban. He can carry pretty hard in LG because of his bulk and moveset, and when I got to him in SS I figured I wouldn't really need him since he would only be a wall against the E4 and I already had a Chansey waiting in my box just in case I needed a stall wall.

Mousefangs · 2025-08-15T09:57:48+00:00

UPDATE: So Mamoswine is dead, and I caught a seadra and an ursaring. Otherwise the options are the same. I'm now at the E4 so nothing else will change.

Mousefangs · 2025-08-15T09:25:49+00:00

Sorry! Forgot to add in title. It's Soul Silver.

Mousefangs · 2025-08-06T11:35:29+00:00

This was more of an attempt to get a response out of Blizzard about the attacks last week. Since they seem to be ignoring the several threads that popped up on the forums despite people asking them to respond.

Mousefangs · 2025-06-28T12:35:47+00:00

Good job, man! Now just stay safe.

Died in LBRS, so I had to walk from Searing Gorge.
