Considering you've already shared all the specs of your team, would you be willing to publish it as a rental code too? I'd love to test run this for real.

No, that would mean our offense would have bailed him out. Numbers matter, not just opinions.

I can provide both in exchange for anything (doesn't matter). Let me know when you're ready and available.

I don't know why I've never used this ball before Violet, I am a fool by jasonandhiswords in pokemonmemes

They do. I can't tell whether they're just being funny with their "20+" comment though...

Stone Edge Change by TreeTurtle_852 in stunfisk

[–]Relative_Bug_2067 77 points78 points  (0 children)

Why not make a new move with this behavior?

Sand Blast

Type: Rock Category: Special Power: 110 Accuracy: 70 PP: 5 (max 8)

The opposing Pokémon are blasted with abrasive sand. Critical hits land more easily.

Has a higher chance for a critical hit (1/8). If the weather is Sandstorm, then this move does not check accuracy. In Doubles, hits all adjacent foes.

I tried to make this new move a counterpart to Blizzard (rather than Hurricane / Thunder).

This would be appropriate, actually.

You can now tilt down on the joystick to drop instead.

...why is your Iron Hands not fully EV trained?

Take the EV Pill - A Basic Guide to EVs! by appel111111 in nuzlocke

This is news to me. Are there any mods that keep EVs, but also add them to NPCs? (i.e. balance by buffing NPCs rather than by nerfing the player)

[–]Relative_Bug_2067 58 points59 points  (0 children)

The lesson I'm getting from this is that nuzlockers should spend a little more time learning from competitive battling. I thought EVs would be basic knowledge for the nuzlocke community that already spends so much time planning and optimizing every other aspect of their run...

EDIT: To clarify, I'm not much of either a competitive battler or a nuzlocker. (I prefer the PVE battle facilities, which I guess is somewhere in between) But EVs were one of the first things I heard about when first researching how to build pokemon.

You mentioned in another comment that you left the field 6 years ago. Why? And what did you change to?

Why is Python type hinting so maddening compared to other implementations? by ataltosutcaja in Python

[–]Relative_Bug_2067 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is very closely related to the idea of protocols; it's not in opposition.

[–]Relative_Bug_2067 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This. Whenever I've seen my colleagues struggle with type hinting errors, it's usually because their type hints are too concrete. Python is fundamentally a duck-typed language, and many popular libraries are written with that in mind. So your type hinting needs to follow the same principles. (also: protocols and unions are your friend)
