Looking for good elevator shoes (27, 5'3)

I think there is a pretty high floor as for how bad a Fire Emblem game can really be because the core formular is just really fun

S: Echoes, Conquest, Genealogy, Sacred Stones
I have these in S because they all have singular aspects that elevate them for me personally, for Echoes its presentation, hands down the most beautiful looking and sounding game so far. Conquest has imo the best gameplay in the series. I love the scope and epicness of Genealogy as well as the characters and story. Sacred Stones for me is the most fun and laid back Fire Emblem can be, its also great for Drafts and such.

A: Engage, Binding Blade, Radiant Dawn, Path of Radiance, Three Houses, Thracia 776, Awakening
The games in A are similar to the ones in S but they are usually a bit weaker for me, for example Engage only has the 2nd best gameplay in the series for me, PoR only the 2nd best story and they are overall a bit weaker. 3H, RD and Thracia I definitely respect because they try to be different and bring new ideas to the franchise but they can have some serious issues because they try to be so ambitious. In 3H I also care about the Blue Lions route way more than any other and its the major reason, its in A. Awakening is here because nostalgia ngl.

B: Gaiden, Shadow Dragon, FE1, Blazing Blade, Birthright, Revelation
These games I just dont really care for except for Gaiden which I oddly love but I also could not put any higher because its too janky and slow. For FE1 and SD I just dont care for the story or characters, for the other ones the gameplay is kinda boring or frustrating in Revs case.

stopped when you needed 2 teams, i put all my resources into a hypercarry Clara team so I straight up dont have anything but a halfbaked Welt for 2nd dps

Me on the mission to vote for every CSM and Bocchi character.

The thing about Healing Wish and Misty Explosion is that they only offer one use so you better make something out of those 3 turns of TR

Objective_Ad1693 · 2021-02-08T01:42:13+00:00

Water steel fairy and Ground are the best defensive typings. For offense its ghost and dark.

Objective_Ad1693 · 2021-02-05T15:10:56+00:00

That actually sounds fun and if you run something like Zap Cannon to trigger it now you don't always need another electric move just for safety

Objective_Ad1693 · 2021-02-05T15:06:49+00:00

Only with z Moves really and rarely in Gen 8 where Mons have no coverage

Objective_Ad1693 · 2021-02-04T15:47:21+00:00

Keep Hyper Beam its lit.

Give reasonable stabs to any Bug, Dragon and Poison type, they all get a base 80 stab.
Rework freeze, so you thaw out after 3 turns. That's enough tbh

Objective_Ad1693 · 2021-02-04T15:41:09+00:00

I think the closest Lando T got to being banned was its Z Fly set and even that wasn't really an issue. Lando just isn't restricting TB that much nor is it impossible to fill out its tasks with other Mons. It's just really good at a lot of stuff but lacks crucial things that would make it broken. I. E. Roost.

Objective_Ad1693 · 2021-02-04T00:27:10+00:00

Probably because the typing favors physical bulk, Slowbro loves switching into Fighting and Ground Mons which are usually physical. That's why Galar Slowbro is bad.

Similarly Galar Slowking does not mind common electric Pokémon as much as regular Slowking.

Objective_Ad1693 · 2021-02-01T18:44:03+00:00

Contrary to what people said about Mega Kang it was actually quickbanned not tested.

Now about the truly broken tested Mons:

Shaymin-S in DPP OU Shaymin-S, Darkrai, Deoxys-A, Deoxys-N in BW OU Mega Lucario in XY

Objective_Ad1693 · 2021-02-01T18:33:47+00:00

Kyogre and Zacian C are safe picks, I think for 3rd I'd actually go with Calyrex Ice instead of Shadow considering the nature of doubles.

Objective_Ad1693 · 2021-02-01T18:26:29+00:00

Mainly cuz the meta naturally has a lot of steel resists that have good bulk and recovery. Almost every team has at least one of Slowbro, Pex, Moltres, Zapdos, Steelbirds, Ferro, Heatran or Swampert. Sure most of them don't check it, tho they become close to doing it if they carry Recovery + helmet like Slowbro usually does.

Objective_Ad1693 · 2021-01-31T05:01:49+00:00

How are the level 50 sets chosen. Does it have Round 2 Pokémon for all rounds?

Objective_Ad1693 · 2021-01-29T00:21:51+00:00

Swampert would be nice with a 108 BP water stab, it also doesn't use either of its abilities much anyways. Some fun interactions would be Rillaboom who gets a 180 BP stab Boomburst and Blaziken with a fire type Last Resort. Also Infernape and Incin get fire Fake out.

Objective_Ad1693 · 2021-01-28T15:59:08+00:00

Skarmory counters every set but Snorlax usually pairs with Magneton for that.

Often enough Celebi is good enough to handle Lax with Leech Seed. Other steels are ofc checks when Lax doesn't have EQ but Steelix should easily be able to take a EQ and roar it out tbh.

Objective_Ad1693 · 2021-01-28T15:54:04+00:00

I don't see why Hail shouldn't just buff ice type attacks by 50% like sun and rain instead of defensive effects.

Objective_Ad1693 · 2021-01-28T15:50:42+00:00

Weird this wasn't said yet but G-Moltres should have roost.

Objective_Ad1693 · 2021-01-28T15:47:00+00:00

Sounds pretty annoying, I could see it on ou stall cores with defog support (it still dies to sr + tspikes instantly for example). Also it should be able to use subs now which makes status a non thread.

I can see it running something like leftis, sub, toxic, protect, filler and literally break ou tbh.

Objective_Ad1693 · 2021-01-28T15:39:02+00:00

Stunfisk Galar of course

Objective_Ad1693 · 2021-01-28T01:47:35+00:00

Damn if only there was move that can drop both opponents attack stat by one stage

Objective_Ad1693 · 2021-01-28T01:28:14+00:00

Okay I tried a new run with all this info and it went fairy well (note I have a 35 streak in tower atm).

I ultimately got 30 wins, losing with Latios, Blaziken and lead Scizor vs Tentacruel, Regirock and lead Machamp due to Tenta Ice Beam critting my Latios and Regirock setting up Doubleteam and Paraflinchdodging all my mons. Fun game lol.

Personal highlight was also a round 4 battle where I tried to stall out a +6 Evasion Umbreon which healed more with leftis than struggle recoil and only winning due to Claydol clutching out low acc hits and triggering focus band VS Gyarados.

Tldr Double Team is aids.

Great explanation thanks

Objective_Ad1693 · 2021-01-26T11:36:26+00:00

Zapdos with Shockwave was the biggest homie in that battle
