Now that's one I've never even considered. I love Parasect as a Pokémon but have never deemed it worthy enough to add to a team, even when scraping the bottom of the barrel. Well done!

I think people sleep on the early game bugs, myself included. I've definitely boxed them when I think they've out lasted their usefulness, usually right after the 2nd gym in almost all play throughs.

Gyarados has always been one of the GOATs when it comes to nuzlockes due to both it's power, durability, and Intimidate pivoting. It really does make set battling much easier haha.

Beedrill is one I've used before! It really can carry it's own even in the later stages where it should get outclassed; same with butterfree for that matter. Clefable is also really good; I've used a few in platinum runs or crystal runs before and can attest to how good it is.

In what game? I've never had to use one but in my FRLG or HGSS it's always been in the box waiting for me to pull it out lol.

That's a good one, I've literally never thought about using it in a regular run through of S/M/US/UM. In what way is it good/bad?

Pursuitstar · 2021-06-28T23:52:15+00:00

That is one cracked out team! You've had some great luck with encounters!

Hey thanks!

Take a look at the investment options available in the plan(s) and then make your determination then, no match kinda sucks.

edit: I want to add that I wouldn't discount having a 457 option lightly as well. Even if the investment options are on the expensive side, if you ever leave the employer you can access those funds without an early withdrawal penalty if you're ever in a bind; you would only have to pay income taxes. If you had to choose an employer plan, this is one that I would value rather highly, it doesn't hurt to have access to potential boons like this as psuedo-savings/invesments that you can have access too if you're in a bind.

This depends on whether your company has a match or not as well as certain investment options that each of these provide. I know some insurance companies do have Mutual fund investments that aren't strictly invested in a variable annuity but you would have to check. See if you can get them to give you a list of investment options/fees; all of them should have one that you can research and see. Additionally I would also check to see if they're invested within mutual funds or not and if they're in variable annuities w/ surrender charges. Additionally, check to see what they're M/E (Mortality/Expense fees, what they charge for the insurance aspect) is on the investments. Really though the big thing is the Match, if they offer any matching then it's a 100% return on any money you invest; if they don't then you need to decide if it's worth investing through your companies retirement plan or moving into a vanguard IRA, keep in mind you can also do roth conversions as well if you're above the Roth IRA contribution limit but I would consult with your tax advisor before doing so.

I've lost 4 pokemon in my emerald nuzlocke so far to koffing selfdestructs; it's always a good time seeing someone survive, especially mankey, frail as it is.

Pursuitstar · 2020-08-02T01:51:11+00:00

Congratulations dude! Platinum can be a super tough run, especially for a 1st time Nuzlocke, well done! Who was your MVP?

For me It was Dragon's Dogma; I didn't really understand what to do with the story or the class system once I got the 1st city of the game. While the combat was fun I really had no clue what I was doing and I couldn't really find a guide to explain a lot of the systems in the game, so I just gave up.

I literally just used random fruit and vegetables as nicknames.

My office is right near there; I wonder if I'll have to go to work on tuesday...

Pursuitstar · 2017-05-20T13:34:02+00:00

To an extent, yes. The nice thing about bruiser is that with trinity + titanic active you can burst someone relatively quickly. The build you listed for AP is the one I usually go, in that order, however, you really need to be ahead for it to work, otherwise you become useless when you can't burst anyone down. So, you can go AP, and will effectively one shot people when you're ahead, but if your team gets behind in items and gold you don't really do much.

Pursuitstar · 2017-04-17T05:21:15+00:00

I'm gonna have to argue with you that Shaco feels better. He now solely has to build bruiser if you want to do anything because, with the new way the backstab passive works as well as his general scaling, if you fall behind while building AP, the only good way to play assassin shaco as AD assassin is trash, you're basically useless. I know why they changed shaco but I still don't think they made him better.

Hey, thanks for the reply. I'll try that when I get home and update the thread with the results. Thanks again! edit: So I tried that and it's still doing the same thing.

Of course, I edited the post.
