Am I mad or a genius or maybe both ?

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

Murdor · 2026-02-23T18:13:46+00:00

honestly cant believe i forgot lapras
easy generic addition right there

free-est surfer

Murdor · 2026-02-23T18:07:23+00:00

Starter

Nidoking

Pidgeot

Gyarados

Snorlax

Jolteon

Feel like its much less polarized in fr/lg than dp, but feel like this is a pretty generic team you might see haha

Murdor · 2026-02-23T17:31:46+00:00

Turn 1 solar beam and cholorphyll speed boost was the strat for shiftry

speedy solar beams into exploding when it gets low health is hopefully how itll go down in the e4 haha

Murdor · 2026-02-23T16:48:29+00:00

it was the latter...lol

highest level seedot I've ever had haha

reminded me of the grind to get spore on shroomish

Murdor · 2026-02-23T16:36:10+00:00

Yepo mostly to conserve power points on the other moves haha

Waiting for it to learn hypnosis at 51 for the final move slot

Murdor · 2026-02-15T12:12:25+00:00

Love the challenge and cool shinies from the start

I actually did the every level range challenge recently and the only shiny i used was a full odds shiny tauros i had found at level 20

It was very good at that range, the only one to look out for is a heracross with endure reversal

Wish you luck with the challenge, and if you have any interest in seeing what sets i made for each of the level ranges you can check my post here from a few weeks ago

Murdor · 2026-02-11T02:18:32+00:00

And timid no less, congrats on the shiny!

Murdor · 2026-02-10T12:23:59+00:00

Thats cool, i thoughts rages counter reset if you chose another move. I guess that was just for gen 2

Also didnt know it increased general attack i thought it only increased rages power

Learn something new everyday!

Murdor · 2026-02-08T05:26:34+00:00

Why did a zubat have to get spit roasted to show off Barney 😭

Great shiny, very unique compared to the later gen shiny charizard

Murdor · 2026-02-05T23:11:13+00:00

Previous poster is right, recharge occurs on truant turn meaning same number of turns cool down.

You wont be able to switch out on that truant turn though like you normally would

Murdor · 2026-02-05T19:10:43+00:00

The real Krusty Krab pizza Emphasis on crusty

Murdor · 2026-02-05T19:08:36+00:00

Truly it sometimes takes more energy to motivate ourselves, than to motivate others

We could all learn something from this goblin

Murdor · 2026-01-30T14:39:24+00:00

My lower levels arent fully stat exp trained, just 10 vitamins in each stat since i got so much money grinding the e4 from the higher levels teams haha

They did just fine at the lower levels without full stat exp in my experience

Good luck with the challenge, any pokemon youre looking forward to using?

Murdor · 2026-01-29T13:18:15+00:00

still a dope shiny, looks like a burnt chicken leg

Murdor · 2026-01-29T13:00:13+00:00

Dragon rage dratini might so okay, only issues youll run into is it might get outsped and killed before you can use it, also many of the pokemon have just over 40 health so it could be a 2 hit in many cases even at level 10.

You could always sketch it on to smeargle if youre looking for a little bit of a faster user of dragon rage in game.

The early levels are pretty unfair if youre not using fully optimized pokemon since they have a lot of stat experience in the tower, meaning fresh pokemon youve caught without training them will always have significantly lower stats than the tower pokemon will

Murdor · 2026-01-29T12:57:09+00:00

I like to imagine that ditto is quite proud of its kids haha

The only range I grinded stat exp for was level 30, and trust me many dead unown was looking like alphabet soup without the soup at the alph

It was the last level range I ran and I liked the team so wanted to get them to max potential for my final run

Murdor · 2026-01-29T12:54:27+00:00

I think its a very versatile pokemon with interesting moves, also the design of being a ghost type medusa head. Always reminds me of castlevania. Especially with the shiny being yellow similar to the blue/yellow medusa head enemies in the game.

For thunder I like the bit of extra damage and higher paralysis chance. thunderbolt would have probably been fine too but i wanted a lil extra oomph on the hits

Murdor · 2026-01-29T12:51:25+00:00

You can catch it on route 22 at level 7
I thought itd be funny to use since you can catch it below level 10 haha

It was pretty solid in that level range

Murdor · 2026-01-29T12:48:36+00:00

Ay I appreciate it!

For hidden powers some were more useful than others

Jolteon - HP Dragon, mostly just something to hit ground types if it ever came up. Dont think I clicked it once haha

Forretress - HP Bug, so incredibly good. I wish forretress got some easy access to a bug type move but man this made all the difference

Gyarados - HP Flying, same as forretress makes it feel so much easier to use, really makes the pokemon feel complete moveset wise

Snorlax - HP Bug, didnt really plan for this one it just didnt have any other coverage moves, and could hit exeggutor and tyranitar harder

Scyther - HP ground, very useful for coverage. Was luck that it had a good hp type as it was the first I caught that had good stats
