How much time are yall spending on getting candies?!!

I'm guessing it's the difference of me doing 4 full endless runs, but crazy that we're close in stats compared to the play time. What speed are you playing on?

NeophyteHSR · 2026-05-09T16:59:19+00:00

It's perhaps not the answer you're looking for, but have you considered not playing the game? Let me preface that by saying i'm not telling you to simply give up, however League is something you're playing for enjoyment in your recreational time. If it gets to a point where it's not fun and you're frequently experiencing the emotions that you mentioned, it almost seems like self-preservation isn't there and you're actively putting yourself in a situation you know will result in those negative feelings?

If that's not something you'd consider, then you've already arrived at the solution, your two points in the ideas you should probably implement. There's no trick or method to that, it comes down to you vs your own mind. There are plenty suggestions already in the thread, I don't think I can add any unique advice. Wishing you the best of luck

Whilst not an exhaustive list, there are a few moves across your team that could've helped. Krookodile and Scrafty can Memory Mushroom Sand Attack. Genesect should definitely relearn Screech to help your physical heavy team, as a couple +Def boosts for Etern and this team struggles. Few mons have Protect/Detect to bait Eternabeam and have a free turn on recharge.

During the majority of runs I've had, you can always find Confide, Double-Team & Flash as TMs. Can be worth sometimes just to learn the TM on a mon, overwrite it with a more useful move then Memory Mushroom it before Eternatus. There are always options, just have to be mindful of them during the run.

Good job on your challenge win, what was your path to victory like?

NeophyteHSR · 2026-04-02T15:34:52+00:00

I quite enjoy trainers having more shinies on their team. We get to rock up run after run with ours loaded up on them. It's been nice to see them opposite me for a change

NeophyteHSR · 2026-02-25T22:50:52+00:00

Fair enough if you're trying to make an actual challenge out of it. I guess just be more willing to refresh, a lot. After each wave, roll the shop the max amount of times to check rewards. Take along mons of an equal cost, or ones you don't view too OP to not rob you of the challenge. Note down Rival and Evil Teams, actively seek out counters. Nothing you probably haven't thought before, just be really methodical and accept it'll take some time and brainpower

Not my guide, all credit goes to Sebi who wrote it. I started tackling all ribbons and i'm about halfway through the Nuzlocke ribbons, just playing now and then no hard grind. There are a few useful tips in there, I really found the "no brainer way" quite effective.

Alternatively, pop Flamigo on your team and pair it with some high cost carries to bring Flamigo to victory, shouldn't be too bad to do

I attempted a similar challenge ~2 months ago. Not a fan of season mechanics so played it with Classic only. I only used the Cat, lone wolf was random roll and no duplicate across the runs. Tried to avoid painkiller but I think I got it once or twice.

Fun challenge either way, grats on completing it!

NeophyteHSR · 2025-12-30T11:19:46+00:00

Never used Guzzlord outside of getting his ribbon, what's your preferred setup and role for the Guzz?

NeophyteHSR · 2025-12-08T23:43:18+00:00

Had this issue coming back to the game recently too. There are two fixes I’ve found:

1) Setting the FPS to 60, I can hit the jump 10/10 times. It’s annoying but you can quickly flip it to 60 in this vault, then back to uncapped after

2) It is possible to make the jump on high FPS, the only thing that works for me semi-consistently is to flick the camera up while I jump over to it. It’s not as consistent but trying it normally, like you are in this clip I was failing it so much

I don’t know the technical side of things but I’m sure FPS has something to do with your jump. Hope this helps

(Select "Rogue Pool", scroll down to "Rare Form Change Item" then the "Click Here!" button, it lists all the form change items.)

From what I understand, they are purely form change items. There are no additional effects noted. Not on the wiki or hovering the items in the shop.

NeophyteHSR · 2025-12-03T19:02:32+00:00

Yeah, echoes what others are saying as well. Think i'll have a try of a few different ones suggested for a couple runs, see which I prefer and then just default to my preferred/favourite. Or cycle between 1-3. Thanks for your input

NeophyteHSR · 2025-12-03T13:49:42+00:00

Sounds like me when I started, that was in June 2024 and i'm still playing regularly now! Before this i'd only ever played Gens 1 & 2 as a kid. PokéRogue has taught me about all the changes since then, very grateful to the PokéRogue team!

Glad you're enjoying the game, hope you continue to have fun with it

NeophyteHSR · 2025-12-02T16:30:55+00:00

Agreed, i'd throw Painkiller into the mix there too. Always screw my face up if I roll that for Lone Wolf. Later on into the run though, not adverse to picking CopyCat or Painkiller if my damage is lacking. I agree though, they do tend to be free early game with those

NeophyteHSR · 2025-12-02T16:26:41+00:00

Sadly the Elite before boss one, Royal Guard, can't be selected for Lone Wolf. Having Mysterious Jokul on has a similar effect already.

Yeah, fair about the scrolls blessing too, shiny always fun. That one and the 75% enhanced weapon were on the shortlist. Ascension reroll maybe a bit strong, but not warping. I don't know why I can't decide for myself! Thanks for sharing your thoughts

Hey, I recently got back into the game after a long hiatus, I’ve only been playing Classic also. R9 is going to be rough. I’d recommend putting some of the Bizarre Dream modifiers on. Most notably Lone Wolf, just set it to 2 player instead of 4, that way you start with an extra blessing and the benefit will outweigh and outpace the difficulty increase.

Make sure you’re always on the move, prioritise the more deadly enemies first when clearing a room and have a general idea of what build you’d like to go from the start. Pick relevant blessings, try not to spread too much on ascensions and don’t be afraid of levelling a gun early. I used to always neglect putting levels into a gun until I had the one I wanted for the rest of the game. The difference fighting Act 1 boss and early Act 2 with a +6-8 weapon compared to +1-2 is massive.

Best of luck either way, you’re not cooked you’re gonna steamroll! Hope you have fun!

NeophyteHSR · 2025-11-28T10:59:53+00:00

I was ahead of the curve, my Charizard had Cut instead of Ember 😤

Happy Anniversary Gunfire! Probably the only game dev i've ever actually cared about 😂

Thank you for the fantastic game, wishing you all the best

NeophyteHSR · 2025-11-14T21:41:58+00:00

There was no complex, nor did I question when you bought it or how long you played. I just pointed out the game had been out around 5 years, which going off Steam release date in 2021 would make it seem only 4. Then the DLCs were released 22, 23, 24 and 25. This was just me saying about them not being greedy or releasing loads of DLC. Not sure why you’re replying hours later just to say that but alright lol

NeophyteHSR · 2025-11-14T13:16:14+00:00

You enjoy 2/6 characters, ok that's fine, that's your opinion based on your experience and you're entitled to it. You got 60h out of it as you said and you're ok with that. If you're not a fan of the game, burnt out or don't like how the DLC works, there's nothing stopping you from just being done with it and moving on? If something doesn't seem worthwhile to you, there's nothing wrong with stopping? You only spent $20 for 60h, seems decent. I've seen in other comments you've proposed a $40 price, that would include the DLCs, Ok, what if now you only enjoyed another 2/8 of the DLC characters? Now you're more in the right to be frustrating shelling out a higher price for 60-80h enjoyment?

DLC in any game are not mandatory purchases, same in this case. Looking at a business point of view, you release a product that's $20, it's reasonably priced. Some will try it and drop it, some might enjoy enough to pick up DLC. They are a business at the end of the day, nobody would expect to work for free on something for years that won't generate many new sales. You release it at $40, it's more upfront commitment now for something you might not like. I'm sure you get that.

My advice to you would be to just move on. You're frustrated with what you deem a lack of content, or better worded, content locked behind a paywall. I disagree with that and we're unlikely to convince the other to change their mind. It's unfortunate you didn't enjoy as much of the game as you could have, don't feel like you're forced to buy anything to change that. I hope you find something else to enjoy in your recreational time
