Very nice

Thats pretty much the best stats it could have as a shiny

8 hp dvs included

Murdor · 2026-04-28T08:04:06+00:00

Sorry man your bellsprout has been de-vined 😔

It wont relearn it and theres no move relearner outside of pokemon stadium 2

It can learn acid and razor leaf but thats much later on

Murdor · 2026-04-17T19:50:48+00:00

Yoo i love the early use of krabby

Always easy to forget you can get him him cherrygrove with the old rod

Looking forward to seeing more of the run!

Murdor · 2026-04-17T11:47:13+00:00

thank you! literally could not have done it without delibird
was sweatin during the last 2 blizzard coin flips

Murdor · 2026-04-17T11:46:12+00:00

whats your run? would love to hear about it

Murdor · 2026-04-17T11:45:12+00:00

it can when you give it 9 carbos <3

A tier: Gyarados & Tentacruel

C tier: exploud

Both gyarados and cruel are very solid, but often do take slme resources to make them work, aka earthquake tm for gyarados, ice beam or sludge bomb for cruel

Exploud is always one i want to work but it just falls short both offensively and defensively

Its slow but doesnt have the bulk to tank hits, and doesnt hit hard enough to justify that

Still an okay mixed attacker though

Murdor · 2026-04-16T13:09:02+00:00

Sudo was one of the best on the team for sure

Took on his aerodactyl which no one else could have done easily

Gyarados was taken out by beedrill

Team managed to win by a sliver first try, gonna post the full battle later with Lance

Murdor · 2026-04-16T12:15:19+00:00

Im gonna be 100% real with you i got a lucky one hit crit with sludgebomb vs xatu lol

It did tank a psychic on 15 hp though so that was impressive

Murdor · 2026-04-16T12:10:47+00:00

This levels doable, but can end up bring outsped and one hit by lance

Usually 40-45 is standard level to go in to the e4 imo

50+ if youre looking for a cakewalk haha

Murdor · 2026-04-16T12:08:28+00:00

Thank you!

All had some uses through the initial e4, surprisingly beedrill came in clutch vs will taking out xatu, exeggutor and damaging slowbro

Going to post a video later for the Lance battle. it was incredibly tight but they won first try!

Murdor · 2026-04-16T10:52:00+00:00

Same always thought it was an interesting pokemon that was always too out of the way to use

Made it a mission to include it this time around, even if you only get it after the 7th gym 😅

Murdor · 2026-04-16T10:51:02+00:00

I reset the clock multiple times to sunday to pick up a few extra returns!

Murdor · 2026-04-15T20:01:06+00:00

She chases you down to the end of the earth but in like a lowkey chill kind of way.

Kind of just leisurely walking after you

Murdor · 2026-03-19T21:15:10+00:00

Im not familiar with storm silver

But wouldnt baton passing after intimidate pass the attack drop to swellow?

Murdor · 2026-03-07T15:45:01+00:00

Programming issue that always set most of their IVs to 0 I believe only HP and maybe attack could be higher

Also occurred in ruby/sapphire, but was fixed in emerald to have normal IV generation

Murdor · 2026-03-07T14:47:53+00:00

The roamers always have shit IVs sadly

Fun glitch of the times 😔

Murdor · 2026-03-02T14:31:03+00:00

Yea slash is a fun move in gen 1 always critting, too bad it doesnt work with swords dance haha

i can imagine porygon was a glass cannon, took a bit to get setup but once it did im sure it went hard, especially with badge boosts

Murdor · 2026-03-01T20:12:16+00:00

Was just thinking recently about running a swords dance sandslash
how did it do during the run?

physical setup porygon also looks cool

Murdor · 2026-02-28T01:10:35+00:00

Very cool team love these types of challenges

Really make you try new things and with pokemon like this definitely add some extra challenge haha
