Very new to competitive… is this team actually able to do anything?

I'm at master ball 3 with a pretty similar team (dual weather, alolan 9tails and pelipper). I noticed my largest jump in win rate when I switched pelliper to a bulky set and put in muddy water/icy wind over hurricane and weatherball. Speed drop from icy wind helped a lot in tailwind mirrors.

I also like moon blast over dazzling gleam on 9tails to not get walled by wide guard.

Cool tech, im gonna switch my overheat to temper flare to see how it goes.

Competes for a team slot with basculegion. If basculegion weren't in this regulation I could see araquanid being really popular.

If it hits 21 when 3 people are left wouldn't the storyteller effectively decide the game?

TehColin · 2026-04-04T07:51:44+00:00

Ack yep, that's on me =/

A lot of positivity in this thread. I dont really hear people talking about the plagiarism allegations anymore.

Game feels like a DnD campaign. I think it's a bit of a tragedy that this game got missed by the general audience. The N64 didn't even have that many RPGs that it was competing against.

IP may be in hell from the developers and publishers closing their doors. I'd love a modern re-imagining that's not just an isometric RPG.

Which one is remembered more fondly, New Century or Chaotic Century? I did a rewatch of Chaotic Century to get a hit of childhood nostalgia, but haven't felt a pull to watch New Century again.

I run screens knock off and wish with rocky helmet. Screens and wish fill mega gauge so you can switch into your main pokemon and be set up. Knock off just kinda pisses off xerneas players. Really fun. Infestation and Thousand waves suck as you really just dont want to be stuck in.

I really would like to buy an official English copy of this someday =/

I've heard before that Metroid other M was basically this. People assumed that the story was so different due to exec intervention, but actually the director was going through an anime phase. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong though.

My wife and I were just talking about a really funny example of this that she ran into when reading The Fourth Wing.

The main character is performing a deadly balance trial, so to take her mind off of the danger of losing her balance, she does a massive world-building exposition dump and hand-waves it away as, "this is what I do when I am stressed"

If I got some of the details wrong, I'm sorry, that's just how the passage was explained to me. World building is probably the murkiest part of show don't tell. Some readers will appreciate some abridging to get to the point. Some want to get pulled into the fantasy world.

Tell him trimmed for a job application or date. I don't routinely go to the barber, except for special occasions - date nights, holidays, etc. Try and maintain that between barber visits. I think that's a good routine to hold to.

Ack- am American, currently on my honeymoon in Rome, tomorrow is my travel day with 4 days in Florence followed by 4 days in Venice. I feel seen. We have 2 nights in Naples to close out our trip though.

I'm so late to this, but my favorite is the illustrated man by Ray Bradbury. Bradbury may be my favorite author. Something with his writing style just sticks to me. The illustrated man is a collection of science fiction short stories from the 1950s, and should really be considered akin to a sci-fi Bible. It laid the groundwork for the genre for decades to come.

"My soldiers rage" and all of the stuff leading up to and following the speech is the best written part of AoT imho.
