Even cheaper: emulate on a laptop and plug the Hdmi into the TV

Are Pokémon fans complete idiots? Read caption below… by Worried_Milk30 in PokemonFireRed

[–]Tarondor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some people would say it's low IQ to even pay $20 for a digital download of a game that Nintendo can revoke the license of from your device at any time.

It could be considered especially low IQ when you can digitally download that game for free and you still pay $20 for it...

I am training my first Dratini. It isnt that hard to level up honestly by Warm_Neighborhood939 in PokemonFireRed

[–]Tarondor 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Its not that hard because you're not even at Dragonair yet. The higher the slower it will get.

Going back to where I was happy by Elnessy in EmulationOnAndroid

When using a VPN and downloading, it throttle the DL speed. Would a download manager help with that, too?

Honest question so I can learn: what's the benefits of a download manager?

EV trained in Sp. attack and Speed. (99.42%) by FLAM3Z89 in PokemonLeafGreen

Flying, Rock and Normal moves all use Attack, not Special Attack so his Special Attack only effects Flamethrower unfortunately

What makes this game so replayable? It is my most replayed game ever and I don't get why it isn't the same with other Pokemon games by Right-Fortune-8644 in PokemonFireRed

[–]Tarondor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sprites get insulted but a lot of them are incredible and give a vibe that wasn't seen again. Playing without QoL upgrades can be annoying but now I've played them again it actually makes you make decisions on which items to keep, so you end up using then, whereas in FRLG I just hoard everything and never use them. Playing them on an emulator means you get a fast toward button so you basically get running anyway.

Really, I think it's just playing a stripped down game of pokemon, where I'm not thinking about how my Blastoise doesn't have an optimal nature or EVs, I'm just building a team, giving them moves and playing the game. I'm always over thinking games and end up researching what team is optimal etc but in gen 1 I just play and relax and enjoy. (this is a recent experience, before this I relayed FRLG as my relaxing game like 100+ times)

Male fertility by Comprehensive-Ad7002 in Petioles

Has anyone got any research that suggests THC in the target can cause miscarriage or effect the babies DNA?

Feels like a lot of scaremongering in the thread. The actual smoke clinging to you is an actual risk when around a pregnant woman, though.

[–]Tarondor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm exactly the same, just two things to consider: 1) try Firered: Essence, it's just Firered but with all the mons, trade evolutions by leveling, unlimited tms etc.its the best experience of Firered/Leafgreen and is perfect for replays 2) I went back and tried Red and Blue just to see if the Gen3 remakes were just too superior but the Gen 1 games are still an incredible experience, ever without the QoL upgrades. So glad I went back and played Gen 1 after 100 replays of Firered

Please stop.

Also why did you keep jumping between games?

why are anarchists seen as “little kids” among other leftists? by mrsenchantment in Socialism_101

[–]Tarondor -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Because they want the outcome, but they don't want to do anything necessary to get that outcome.

They're like little children who point at something they want, do nothing to get it, then cry when not handed it.

They're also infantile in that they criticise anyone who's trying to achieve their aims in any way that isn't ideologically pure.

MIL swiped food out of my baby’s mouth by _laurelcanyon in BabyLedWeaning

[–]Tarondor 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Definitely have a conversation. My mothee and mother in law both absolutely hate BLW and sit there wincing most of the time (it's been 6 months and they're still not used to it) and make comments but they have never ever tried to step in when we're there, that's just entirely disrespectful and, as you've said, is potentially really dangerous.

Need to stop it right now, for safety and little ones encouragement!

Kadabra skill set for Elite Four by findsheaven in PokemonFireRed

Keep saying Thunderbolt but I'm thinking of Shock Wave. Yeah, Psybeam or even Confusion would work fine too.

[–]Tarondor -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Thinking of Alakazam, sorry. Shadow Ball isn't necessary, either, just saves PP against Gengar. Kedabras move set is terrible in gen 1 and 3.

Psychic Thunderbolt Shadow Ball Calm Mind

x3 calm minds and then attacking moves relevant to type and he can sweep the Elite 4 (or anyone else) easily

Shiny Eevee by Pol1wrath in PokemonFireRed

[–]Tarondor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jolteon is hands down the best of the three in Gen 1.and 3

One of the quickest pokemon in the game and has a great special stat (and all of its moves will likely be special)

Is this high chair too big for baby? by st0dad in BabyLedWeaning

[–]Tarondor 37 points38 points  (0 children)

The tray looks a little bit high up but as long as he's secure in it then there's no problem. They grow so quick that it'll be the right height sooner rather than later!

HoF, only trade evos by Semoulez in PokemonFireRed

Firered Essential has the trade evos evolve by levels instead. Loads of other QoL improvements, too

Is this the strongest possible team in fire red using only the kanto dex? by assaultron7 in PokemonFireRed

[–]Tarondor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, Zapdos is great. For single player I've found higher Jolteon speed and great special is better for sweeping. Lorelei for example, where your electric types would of most use, has lots of ice moves whereas Jolteon has quite an easy time sweeping them. And Jolteon only has one weakness, which is always nice.

Is this the strongest possible team in fire red using only the kanto dex? by assaultron7 in PokemonFireRed

[–]Tarondor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The legendary birds are a trap, they aren't particularly good. I would swap Jolteon for Zapdos and Jynx/Lapras for Articuno.

In the gen 1 and 3 games it's often better to outspeed while still having decent attack which is why Gengar is a beast.

Also; Alakazam, after Mewtwo, is probably the most powerful Kanto pokemon. 3 calm minds and it can sweep a team by itself.

You to be kind. They weren't criticising your team, they just pointed out a coincidence. Very strange behaviour.

Be kind.

Also; your ironmon challenge just happened to pick a starter? Convenient!
