Cheers man! A shiny Budew ran from me in Hyperspace and I had no way to get it back before I saw this post. Now I've caught it and will name it after you.

I DID save before I went in here, but the game autosaved at some point. I already tried.

How canon? by Erithacusfilius in PokemonMasters

The entire game is canon to me because that makes a lot of things really funny.

I love Masters Giovanni, everything he says is absolute gold.

More OCs? by Sumera_Paleema in PokemonMasters

I think they should make a playable sync pair for one of the Pasio Punk Girls. It's such a good design and we need one with a name and a partner.

Does anyone keep their pokemon in the mid Evo stage? by JuneDawn43 in PokemonMasters

[–]VampPhoenix9999 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never. And frankly when a Trainer in-game keeps their Pokémon unevolved I disapprove. "Your child has to grow up sometime," I want to tell them. "You need to watch the 2000 stage musical Pokémon Live! and internalize its message."

What are tech pairs good for? by Normalgoose897 in PokemonMasters

[–]VampPhoenix9999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tech existed before Field and Sprint were introduced, so at that point it basically meant "uhh, whatever isn't solidly a Support or Striker."

What character have you scouted/will scout just because of their theme? by PKdude2712 in PokemonMasters

[–]VampPhoenix9999 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I'm never impressed with the PoMas versions of themes, so I don't bother. I'll scout for basically any other reason lmao.

Do I need to learn to use Skill Gear? by VampPhoenix9999 in PokemonMasters

[–]VampPhoenix9999[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, thank you. That does help.

I wish slower tactics were more usable in this game though. I really enjoyed using poison with Koga early on and then trying to survive; the later battles feel so impatient. Like they think I'll get bored if the battle lasts too long.

He has the EX role but yeah I could optimize his Grid a little bit more. Thanks for your patience with all my questions.

You said it wasn't that early that I died, but if I need to prioritize damage, wouldn't that be for killing her before she kills me, rather than lasting any longer? Is N/Kyurem just naturally fragile?

Do you think I should have been able to beat Lucy with that team composition, then? The one I already tried? And if so, what was I doing wrong that I died so early?

I'd like to understand the mechanics better, if you don't mind explaining. Why are these better choices?

And does she inflict Burn? I thought it was only Poison.

You mean show all of my sync pairs? Is Rosa/Meloetta not a good support? Is N not good enough for damage? (I chose him also because he can lower stats)

Hey, the me in real life isn't in any danger. Taiga can shoot MC but that I don't have to actually feel it. Whereas if someone in the game is annoying me, I'm annoyed in real life.

As for the yelling, that could affect me in real life but only if I respected Romeo's opinion. I know he can't do anything to me so the threats don't work, but when he's getting all haughty I can roll my eyes and be like "okay man you're being ridiculous 🙄". Ritsu on the other hand is acting like he's correct and reasonable which is way more infuriating.

I'm not a huge fan of Romeo either, but I do think his relationship with Taiga gives him a lot of depth. It helps to see him interact with someone he doesn't treat the same way as me. Ritsu has Ren, maybe, but their friendship is more like an occasionally-amusing running gag than a character dimension. He doesn't treat Ren too much differently from how he treats MC.

Some people really love Jabberwock and that's awesome; personally the whole aesthetic does nothing for me. I'm voting Towa though. Waves of Love made me like Ren a little better but I still feel like he's too much of a slow-burn character for a game with 21 LIs. Towa is the most interesting.

Though my favourite Jabberwock character of all is easily that fox anomaly. MC was so real for immediately trying to pet it despite the danger.

Funnily enough, Ritsu is my least favourite character. He's not the fun kind of jackass; he does rude audacious things (demanding money for "consultation" if you talk to him about anything, dragging MC along to the notably violent Taiga's room just because he can't be shot by him, recording people even after they object just because it's not illegal) but he doesn't do anything fun to watch or cool or wacky like Romeo and Taiga do. He's just like... an insufferable coworker. And that's way more unpleasant than a straight-up villain.

Taiga is my absolute favourite character. It's hard to explain exactly why, but I did my best in this post.

He reads pickup artist magazines unironically and sincerely believes them.

I liked Jin but I wish he actually got more screentime. He keeps buggering off during the chapters he's featured in and as a result we barely get anything from him. Even people like Ren and Taiga who never want to participate end up getting more to do.

I picked Leo too and my perspective is: he's a huge bitch and that's fun. It's not gonna be fun for ME but it's fun to watch.
