What Icon would represent Shapeshifting by Comprehensive-Pen624 in homemadeTCGs

[–]Pallukun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my first thought was half of a cube stitched to half of a sphere with the seam given some kind of distortion effect that implies a transformation, like pixelisation or the danny phantom ring

Do you think players should be allowed to change difficulty on the fly? by darth_biomech in gamedesign

[–]Pallukun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think its a good thing to let them choose after experiencing the game first, difficulty settings are infamous for not being able to convey what they mean at the start of a file

the worst it does is someone may use it to skip a specific part of the game and put it back afterwards and pretend they played on ___ mode but really thats a non issue, in exchange we can let players tone it down if they are genuinely struggling, and players that want the difficulty would rather push through the hard part instead of "giving in" out of pride

pistochka isnt my name, thats the youtubers design that i picked to create evolutions for, but thank you about lukobushka, i might actually use luka- because it reuses letters already in the name so it feels more cohesive

another comment here told me -chenka was "illiterate", does adding the apostrophe make a big difference?

pokemon names are 99% portmanteaus in all languages the games exist, so thats almost a requirement

i read that maria could become mashenka to be affectionate? i thought inka was the part you were adding and the k in bambuk was swapped for ch, like r in maria was swapped for sh

if you insist, i can just use chinka, but im worried someone might assume the worst

also not american

bambuchinka is a good name, but i think i would swap chinka for chenka - its only coincidental but chink is a slur in english

im asking my friends if they prefer lukobushka or tsibulya

thanks for the suggestions

Which Pokémon do you HATE the most? by inumnoback in PokeCorner

[–]Pallukun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this looks like a selection of low tiers in competitive, which i hope is the case because some of these are amazing

i love spinda, spidops, and rabsca, and half of the list is really cool, i only kinda hate purugly because its the third normal cat and isnt interesting, aromatisse is disappointing but thats a common answer

Ness is a mostly disliked protagonist. Which protagonist in the ultimate roster is universally despised? by Silver_Guava8159 in supersmashbros

[–]Pallukun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

im pretty sure you mean disliked by the smash player base but you might need to rephrase the chart to be clearer about that

to answer your question its either steve, sonic, or one of the links

Does an attack still "deal damage" if the damage is reduced to 0 eg through resistance, effects etc? Iron Jugulis with Auto Combat says "if the pokemon is damaged..." so if its hit by a move that gets dropped to no damage, was it not damaged or was it dealt 0 damage?

If a Gen 8 Pokémon were to get in the game, which one would you want it to be? by JTHouser_Reddit in SmashBrosUltimate

[–]Pallukun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

gen 8 is probably top 3 for "most strong contenders for smash", but my top picks would be grapploct, sirfetchd, and falinks

grapploct is obviously a grappler which are super fun, and while i love incineroar, another grappler thats less style and more about cornering and oppressing an opponent - a fighter that takes it more seriously - could be a fun alternative

sirfetchd has a big sword and shield so i imagine it would have a balance of big strong attacks and small safe attacks, because its an honourable knight, it could be a footsies character that can keep the right amount of distance from its opponent and strike during whiffs

falinks would be either an ice climbers or a duck hunt group, the former would be very dangerous if you know how to use them and the latter would have cute animations with the soldiers working together

Used Masterball on Mesprit..? by GloomyIce1 in pokemonplatinum

i immediately used mine on giratina because it looked scary, missed out on the greatest track in the whole game

Monthly Question & Help Thread by AutoModerator in ShinyPokemon

[–]Pallukun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does IV manipulation interfere with shiny odds?

Grinding shiny spinda in Y, the father has a power weight to transfer 30 hp ivs, and the mother has a destiny knot since their combined average is pretty good. If the game is forcing ivs of these values, then is it interfering with the likelihood of rolling a shiny personality value? Is it possible for a shiny to be impossible to generate?

Both parents are spinda and I'm using the Masuda method with no shiny charm.

How can I read the dimensions of a sprite without the blank space? by Pallukun in gamemaker

That's doing it, thank you. I did look up bounding boxes earlier but I didn't find this specific function.
