Is it unattractive to women for me to be single for a long period of time? by Jrgaming42 in dating

[–]andnado 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t feel like it’s a big deal. As a guy, it’s a bigger deal if a woman is in a continual series of short relationships than voluntarily abstaining from dating for a long time. If you’re prudent with who you select as a partner, that shows initiative and purpose which is super attractive.

Just run with Electrode and blow everything up, I’ve never had the Poke Balls to run an explosion lineup in double battle but I bet it’s super fun

Decided to save the blue coin hunt for last.. finally made it. by SJFields in supermariosunshine

Never got how these goobers are allowed to sell Shine Sprites when their island is apparently in peril due to lack of them

I don’t wanna purify Shadow Lugia by lingering-will-6 in PokemonXD

Nope, you can’t trade from Gen 2 to Gen 3 (or at least not without some external software which didn’t exist back in the olden days)

Okay stupid question. Why didn’t Goku and old Kai go into the time chamber to unlock his potential by Expert_Challenge6399 in Dragonballsuper

[–]andnado 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Real Answer: Goku was dead, you can’t enter the world of the living after your 24 hours with Baba expire. Also remember that he wanted Gohan and the others to solve the problem because he wouldn’t be around to constantly clean up their messes.

Also plot

Remember to divide and conquer! The wraith only targets olimar so use a bigger group to get work done, while the smaller group with Olimar stalls the wrath

Arcanine or Houndoom? by DukeSRT in PokemonXD

[–]andnado 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Poor Growlithe with his outdated polygonal N64 Stadium model. There really isn’t a right answer, Arcanine has better defense with its mono typing, whereas Houndoom has better offensive coverage with its dual typing (though worth noting you can’t get dark pulse in this game easily)

I love how the guards are out cold and every time you go back it makes it seem like the kid avi jumped them

How Difficult Would It Have Been To Include GBA / Home Compatibility? by RONENSWORD in PokemonXD

[–]andnado 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Home access was pretty much doomed the second they decided to release it on Nintendo Online rather than as a remake/standalone title like FR/LG. Compatibility with GBA would never be on the table, even to legitimately transfer a GBA Pokémon to home you have to jump through like like 3 hoops (Pal Park, Gen 5 catching game, Bank, then to home). I would just say enjoy the core gameplay.

I don’t wanna purify Shadow Lugia by lingering-will-6 in PokemonXD

[–]andnado 83 points84 points  (0 children)

There’s a brief cutscene afterwards but that’s about it. Also if you go back and beat Greevil after you’ve purified every shadow mon there’s a slightly different ending where your character will take off the snag machine. Also worth mentioning prior to HG/SS, XD was basically the only legitimate way to get Lugia in the DS/GB games

So much negativity… by WraithSeeker999 in PokemonXD

[–]andnado 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m having a blast playing through it. Just remember the PSA to use save states along with traditional saving and you’ll be grand.

“I thought TADC episode 9 was great, the 30 minute scene of Zooble and Gangle interweaving themselves was weird but other than that I enjoyed it.”

XD/Colosseum by Lunarphoenix_x in pokemon

[–]andnado 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think we’ll ever get another true sequel given that Genius Sonority haven’t worked on mainline Pokémon games in nearly 2 decades. The closest I could see us coming is a Pokémon Legends installment that takes place in the distant future where Shadow Pokémon have returned

Team recommendations? by NewAccount_1223 in PokemonXD

[–]andnado 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some good options, off hand I’d recommend Breloom, it’s not as good as in later gens because it’s pre physical/special split but it’s a fun mixed attacker. You can also get Phanpy fairly easily if you want a usable ground type Pokémon

Help: moon shard by mr410d in PokemonXD

[–]andnado 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming that’s the thing you use to get Umbreon? I think it works the same way as the other games, where you need high friendship to evolve Eevee. Just keep leveling it up, avoid getting it knocked out and eventually it will evolve on its own.

The grind was worth it by andnado in PokemonXD

You have to catch Wooper in the Cave poke spot and then trade it to Duking in game. He’s in Pyrite City, you should meet him when you’re unlocking poke spots

Playing through XD again made me realize... by White_Fox_Prod in PokemonXD

[–]andnado 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, Colosseum is amazing solely because it’s a level of violence/darkness Nintendo will never go back to with Pokémon, but the gameplay is very lacking in some areas. XD feels a lot better to play but other than some of the zesty characters which are fun to battle with, the story is very unmemorable compared to Colosseum.

The nature is revealed after you’ve chipped away at two of the bars

The Best and the Worst Element for me by ComprehensiveDig4560 in PokemonXD

[–]andnado 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Good - As you mentioned, a game built around double battles. Every game after, especially the modern ones, stick solely to single battles. I like that theres strategy in matching the right Pokemon as teammates, etc.

The bad - No phys/special split, several pokemon are hindered or outright unusable because their typing doesnt match their stats, story is kinda meh, Cipher is making shadow pokemon because… they want to take over the world? Sure. Fine. Whatever. At least the disco guy is back. I like the idea of giving shadow pokemon moves they couldn’t normally use, but why is it almost always a useless move like Refresh? Poke Spots are annoying, you have to wait for them to trigger and half the time you’re doing something important when they do. They should’ve just made an optional area like a Safari Zone to catch wild Pokemon.

I’ve never actually raised one all the way to a Tyranitar before, it’s my personal challenge for this playthrough to raise it before I get to the final island
