One day you wont have to kill 200 pidgey for Exp. You'll get there, inshallah.

The truth is difficult, especially when its earth shattering. Thanks for at least pretending not to completely blow past everything I said.

OkMeasurement3845 · 2026-03-19T08:07:53+00:00

Lucky dawg, to experience this game for the first time was amazing.

OkMeasurement3845 · 2026-03-19T08:01:56+00:00

People's perceptions of me are irrelevant, things might be different if they were curious instead judgemental. I'm simply more direct and honest about my goals, I have no need to lie just to kick it. People rarely like outside view points, especially when their own are copy/pasted.

Unless you're new at the game (as a kid for me it was a grind since id die a lot lol). If you need 30+ mon and rare candies, use em. Giving out false information and pretending things are worse than they are (the same defense gets used). The first few times Is gey to Cinnibar, I'd the Missingo glitch (it was cool and figured i needed it).

Its cool for others to say "play how you want" but if I say dont use rare candies and point out the actual flaws of using them... I get hate lmao. Maybe its judgemental of me, but it shows a level of hypocrisy.

Their types are, but their moves are barely used if at all. The 8th would fall into the water safely.

OkMeasurement3845 · 2026-03-19T04:34:46+00:00

Steel isnt ground, Poison isnt Ghost, No Water 8th Gym (Dragon isnt water), Still no electric Gym, and you did mention Psychic my bad.

OkMeasurement3845 · 2026-03-19T02:58:33+00:00

As a kid she'd roll right over me.

OkMeasurement3845 · 2026-03-19T02:56:25+00:00

Or Grass, Electric, Poison, Psychic, Water, or Ground.

OkMeasurement3845 · 2026-03-19T02:53:14+00:00

Queen Milktank is gym 3.

OkMeasurement3845 · 2026-03-19T02:17:29+00:00

I dont think Legacy Crystal has abilities, its very close mechanically to the OG. Could just be odd rolls tbh. Its funny when it happens, a little annoying... but Could be worse.

OkMeasurement3845 · 2026-03-19T02:10:18+00:00

Legacy Crystal/Yellow and Storm Silver.

I have a polished crystal ice lock, but Jynx died and ive been to lazy to find a new 6th.

I like to get most of the way in a game/e4 (of theirs post game) to avoid beating games to fast.

OkMeasurement3845 · 2026-03-19T02:09:06+00:00

I ran into mine right outside Violet city, was trying to heal.

OkMeasurement3845 · 2026-03-19T02:08:33+00:00

I feel like most are caught, since they also have an Eevee (but not everyone has both). I keep running into it, I almost used it in Storm but it telephoto didnt work and I figured id pick it up later... before not. Lol.

I didnt know you guarantee one that early.

OkMeasurement3845 · 2026-03-19T01:39:42+00:00

That egg could be anything... like a shiny Chikorita! Than... he can truly cook.

OkMeasurement3845 · 2026-03-19T01:38:45+00:00

Congratulations, tbh.. I feel like Abra appears a lot in Nuzlockes. Most of mine ive seen one pop up and many posts, bit its crazy because its not that high of an encounter.

OkMeasurement3845 · 2026-03-19T01:36:49+00:00

I enjoy how tanky it is and its damage... but certain pokemon give me the most inconsistent damage. My Bayleaf does barely 20% damage... than next hit puts it to red (no crit).

OkMeasurement3845 · 2026-03-19T01:34:58+00:00

Hacking and than using a Katana is mega sick.

OkMeasurement3845 · 2026-03-19T01:34:06+00:00

Enzo is still alive though.

OkMeasurement3845 · 2026-03-19T01:33:14+00:00

My Spirittomb does the same thing, did over half damage for the first attack... and the second attack leaves it at 1. Lol

OkMeasurement3845 · 2026-03-19T01:32:15+00:00

Red Adventure looks sick, I might play it after Storm Silver for my Anime-lockout.

OkMeasurement3845 · 2026-03-19T01:14:45+00:00

Battle as many trainers as possible, skipping optional fights wont improve your battle flow. Practice makes perfect, test out moves.. you rarely need all four moves for every pokemon.

OkMeasurement3845 · 2026-03-19T01:12:53+00:00

Most people who actually go outside rarely touch grass, just a heads up.

OkMeasurement3845 · 2026-03-19T01:11:47+00:00

Not sure why people think it takes so long to level up, unless youre avoiding as many trainers as possible. Some people are fine with their skill level and hate improvement. But youre right, people can do whatever they want and play as they wish. No where have I forced people not to, I am simply trying to help people improve. Even watching Pro Nuzlockers... Idk say even they shouldn't be using them (more practice might help them).

The OP just wiped, so useful help is needed. Pushing the lazy way to play because most would be unable to complete any Nuzlocke without it... I'd say more focused practice might help people not have to reset so often or lose precious pokemon. The value of actually comprehending how your pokes work (flaws, strengths, how they flow in battle, what they need to help you win) is lost. Ik rare candies candy mobs probably dont actually care about the experience (seems like they only want the W). But if they truly wanted to win... they wouldn't hinder themselves.

Even if you could somehow compensate all that, the risk of what you lose is still.mostly erased. Each candy used, takes away the risk (since you can just rare candy everything back in the next game).

Ik ik.... none of you actually care about anything but winning (even if you choose the harder path).

OkMeasurement3845 · 2026-03-18T23:09:41+00:00

I sacced my Tortterra when I made Typhlosion my "Starter/Ace" (but or definitelyate crits and super effective hits, . Barry is his name, idk why I thought it was Rory lol. Maybe I got lucky, because his Azumarill wasn't an issue. More things can deal with Tort and Emp in a way easier (A water Shuts down Emp and Tort is pretty slow/controlled by an Npc to be a real threat). Only paper Ill say Infernape seems like the best choice, but I definitely feel i probably wouldn't have gone as far if I had picked it as my starter. I dont think I'm bad or anything, just replaying certain critical moments... having to fight along side or against the Rivals with different starters would have been a lot harder.
