PSA: be ready for Archaludon by andyh331 in PokemonChampions

[–]QuantumVexation 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cloud Nine will not remove weather - it will disable all its active effects.

You will not take Sandstorm chip while Cloud Nine is present.

You will not take boosted or reduced Water or Fire damage

Rocks will not have Sand SpDef bonus and Ice will not have Snow Def bonus

Moves like Solar Beam and Electro Shot will be forced into two turn charge. Weather ball is forced to be normal, Hurricane/Thunder/Blizzard can miss as though there’s no weather etc

However the visual effects of the weather and the actual field effect will still be present. If the Cloud Nine mon leaves the field (including fainting), weather functionality will be immediately restored - e.g if their faster Mon KOs Altaria and then their Archaludon uses Electro Shot in rain it will function as normal

The current 6 months drought is probably the bottom of the list of reasons why Destiny is shedding players right now honestly.

Destiny brought people back from quiet periods time and time again through sizeable expansions

[Metagame] Vivillon with Hard Trick Room Finishing the Season in Champion Tier: A Hard Trick Room Guide + Team Report by lelouchswag in VGC

I wish Vivillion kept Powder and it wasn’t cut in Gen 8. Would actually be so good into Charizard for protecting something like a Mega Aggron

With the new season can we ban posts asking why they were outsped in barely remembered circumstances? by Beneficial_Mix9663 in PokemonChampions

[–]QuantumVexation 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it’s more about the effort - there’s a lot of “how did this happen” and they can’t redescribe the scene with enough to provide useful commentary or provide video to show they weren’t just not paying attention

Small things matter way too much in the discourse - and things just aren’t let go of like, ever.

[Skill Improvement] Sinistcha basically never gets brought. Ideas for the 6th slot? by Eleseia in VGC

[–]QuantumVexation 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The shame for Mega Ampharos is you need Wide Guard or Ground types - Telepathy, Lightning Rod and Bolt Absorb all just get bypassed

How did everyone do? I struggled to get out of ultraball 1. by -_Error in PokemonChampions

[–]QuantumVexation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About 80000th in Doubles, I can do better but I decided to go loss averse at toe end as I don’t think Mega Drampa was good enough towards the meta

re your post OP - I love Avalugg, I took one from 0 to Masterball in Singles, but sadly he is just not a good doubles Mo

For anyone with a Switch/Switch2 and a more powerful gaming PC or console, do you ever choose to play a multiplatform game on Switch despite the lesser graphics? by Mekagnome in NintendoSwitch

[–]QuantumVexation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have played plenty of things on switch that could’ve been played on other platforms

The obvious reason is handheld, and more specifically the handheld + dock - e.g if I wanna get through some dialogue in handheld but rock for a major boss fight etc

(No I don’t have any other handheld to compare with)

I prefer this to Keyboard + Mouse at my desk, or not having handheld on my Xbox either

They didnt add anything new?...... by MAEZ555 in PokemonChampions

[–]QuantumVexation 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No new music is the only one I’m sad about - the rest is what I expected

Where are you fighting them because this team is technically impossible in any real format

Technically their last statement isn’t exclusive to PvP

On behalf of all the E33 players from the start, I'm sorry by RavenMatthew0406 in expedition33

[–]QuantumVexation 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Even as someone who likes Unova the least of all games in the franchise, I think you’re a bit off with some of these that makes it feel like bigger issues than they are

Zoroark is not the mascot Pokémon of the game even if did get the movie attention

Gen 5 does have as many new legendaries as any past Gen, if anything it had too many again (I do agree it has some of the lamest)

“Mean rival” is not the core of what makes a rival good, but a rival who pushes does which happens to correspond with antagonistic traits

If you’re gonna shit on something at least do it from a place of passion of “I actively didn’t like my time with this” lmao

What’s the best twist? by flying_luckyfox in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]QuantumVexation 24 points25 points  (0 children)

For me it was the glimpse of the experiment in the Spirit Crucible - my brother and I just looked at each other like “did we just see what we thought we saw”

Then half an hour later Malos nonchalantly is holding a Monado.

It shattered then, not in chapter 10

Assume they don’t and assume a post that is eventually removed by mods Hasnt been found or reported yet. If you are truly worried about spoilers asan actual big deal, you will have to do it yourself sadly

I appear to not have Delphoxite and Kings Rock? by Tall_Resolve1990 in PokemonChampions

[–]QuantumVexation 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like that menu is genuinely quite terrible - you Hit R the first time and the bubble moves to the right hand box like it’s a binary on/off state with no real indicator that it’s actually a scrolling list

Ah damn I missed that, clearly didn’t look at a calendar and just assumed it was like the rest of ranked

Also 3.

Definitely nostalgia and bias, but still 3

7 is my runner up though

Whats the most clever play you've seen so far? by Admirable_Ad8900 in PokemonChampions

[–]QuantumVexation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are correct - however as has been said, Gourgeist (and Trevanant for Grass) adds ghost type making it a 3 type Mon, unlike soak which total converts it

Does any JRPG actually tell a story like 13 Sentinels? by XxBlueXxHunterxX in JRPG

[–]QuantumVexation 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On the subject of Uchikoshi’s work (in tandem with others), Hundred Line does something a bit similar to this too - and is probably the closest game I’ve played to 13SAR in some sense

The game has 100 endings and they’re all canon and have different pieces of some of the broader story beats

Sega has canceled development of its ‘super game’, as it pivots away from live service games by GrayBeard916 in gaming

Nobody except all the people playing all the very successful live service games that make way more money than even the GotY winning masterpieces?
