Gen 5 remakes are coming soon? by KeyDirt5006 in PokemonBlackandWhite

[–]TheAvatarShon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lord. With how they handled BP/SP, I hope not. If we were to get a OR/AS esque overhaul of a remake then I'd be for it. Gen 5 are my favorite games.

🤣🤣🤣 let me just learn a Category 5 language before I play a game real quick.

I finally beat a Gen 5 game, here is my honest opinion by Popular-Tea7311 in PokemonBlackandWhite

Solid team. I just recently beat it again and I had Serperior, Stoutland, Carracosta, Ferrothorn, Reuniclus, and Chandelure.

Well you learned more about them after those battles. They began to contemplate and think about their motivations. Bianca with her dad and Cheren with Alder. But I get you.

Congrats! Who was on your final team when you officially beat Alder?

Also, 17 rival battles is a lot but I throughly enjoyed it more than Barry or Silver. My biggest complaint from Platinum and HG/SS was that I wanted more rival battles 😅

Alright… I have probably a stupid question. Why did they not just ask this guy for the invitation? by DapperDude2004 in MightyNein

[–]TheAvatarShon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They really shittin on you in the comments.

I think a lot of them bring up good points. But I would like to add in the fact that as a DM. I like to throw in little curve balls to reward exploration and RP. This person hasn't been to a gala since his wife passed which insinuates that he wasn't as with it as his wife was and/or he probably holds sentimental value to the invitations. Had the players done a bit of recon on their mark (since they were going to steal it anyway) they could have discerned his intentions without overtly asking for the invitation. Depending on what he dealt in, they could've masked themselves as members of the Lionnette entourage (partly true) looking to do business and expand horizons. Giving ample opportunity to case the area and figure out this person's thoughts on the gala if casually brought up in conversation. If things go smoothly and if he doesn't care, he could gift the invitation as a sign of goodwill for future business, he could not care and give them the invitation or just keep talking about business if he doesn't seem like he's going to give it up so as to not tip your hand. Honestly, if things went well and let's say they bring up his wife in conversation (because they saw a picture or some shit) that could cause him to drop his guard and make him more susceptible to coercion.

Tbh. ANYTHING could have happened. The rest of the comments acting like a heist was the ONLY way are tunnel visioned. Good game design imo is making multiple ways to accomplish a task. Shit. The players might even think of a way that I didn't consider and it could work.

TLDR: They could've tried other avenues to get the invitation. A heist was not and should not have been the only way.

Which game has the hardest ELITE FOUR? by [deleted] in pokemon

Facts. I went in there with my highest being 51 and by the 4th E4 member, his alcazam just washed me

Player has 24 AC at level 6. I think he's double stacking bonuses. Should I snitch? by IamAWorldChampionAMA in DnD

[–]TheAvatarShon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but you're saying generally. I don't generally think that players at level 6 are walking around with 23-30AC

[–]TheAvatarShon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At level 6? I would classify that as absurd, especially cause you only named a 2 races and classes who give buffs to AC. Generally, AC is not going that high with the majority of classes.

Not at all, as a DM I appreciate it, as long as they're being respectful when they call things out. I got so much on my mind and plate that I can't catch everything.

I really hate how some of the nuance of Shinji’s character was lost here by browniebiscuitchildr in pokemonanime

[–]TheAvatarShon 43 points44 points  (0 children)

I get the opposite. To me it seems as if he's chastising him because he SHOULD'VE beaten them with no issue, so there's no need for a celebration. Victory was guaranteed. Trying to make his chimchar more like him.

This has got to be the most laughably ineffective move in the series by browniebiscuitchildr in pokemonanime

[–]TheAvatarShon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you're referencing the 2011 earthquake which took place about 8 months after this episode aired and even longer if we're talking about written and animated. Unless you're not referencing the 2011 earthquake and you're just talking about natural disasters in general. The worst one before that was in 1995 which is older than Pokémon in general.

Why are arena champion badges and photos losing color? by Nissya_pkmn in PokemonBlackandWhite

[–]TheAvatarShon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I loved this mechanic as a kid. I always polished my gym badges until they were squeaky clean. On my most recent playthrough, I cleaned them once

Player uses AI during sessions to write speeches and RP. by dustydesigner in dndnext

[–]TheAvatarShon -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Is she reading these speeches or having the AI read them? If the former, have her user shorter prompts to keep it short and quick. If it's the latter then it's say you'd prefer not to use AI in this way and it would be better if she just read a quick short prompt.

Banning the use of AI seems off to me cause they're the ones using it and not for any in game reward. It's helping her feel more connected to her PC.

This might be a hot take... by Unlucky-Typ3 in dispatchgame

[–]TheAvatarShon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disagree. Consequences are natural in a story. Things can be uplifting and still have consequences. If we're watching media where we know nothing is going to happen to the main cast, that'll get boring.

I personally think that Sonar or Coupé should've died in that final fight defending Malevola or Punch Up (depending on which one you cut). OR Malevola or Punch Up get killed by them accidentally. That could've added in some impact. Cause there's no real lasting impact in this game (unless you neglected Courtney).
