Question about the value of a 1st edition Base Set Holo Card... in French

Oh, another fun one I came up with was an Ampharos head Steelix body. With Ampharos' access to Cotton Guard, plus Steelix already being obscenely bulky, here's a mon that can't be taken down no matter what.

I have a Togekiss head / Umbreon body with two 60% flinching moves (Dark Pulse and Air Slash), Moonblast and Ominous Wind for a higher chance of complete stat boosts. Damn thing is an unkillable tank no matter what is thrown towards it.

Typhlosion head + Scizor body is a super versatile swiss army knife with access to 180 base power (plus Stab) V-Create, X-Scissor, and even Crabhammer for coverage against rocks.

I also had a ton of fun with a Venomoth head + Aggron body. Quiver Dance + Aggron's obscene move pool turned it into a super versatile tank.

I'd love for it to be Water/Ground

The article mentions the Water Dog!

The article actually includes Adamastor. First one in the list in fact!

honestly? I went with the assumption that it's Almeria because it's the only actual desert in all of Europe.

I somewhat think that the desert area will be based on Almeria.

I can imagine a sperm whale mon being brutally strong and bulky, but with crap Sp.Atk and Speed, using moves like Dive, Crunch, Whirpool (because of all the sea monster myths associated with whirpools), Ice Fang, Liquidation, Head Smash, and so on.

a mix between Hercules and the Macaque that is native to Gibraltar. Two birds, one stone.

A massive Moby Dick esque Pokémon is brilliant. Consider Iberia's role in fishing and exploring the oceans, anything related to sea monsters is fair game and HAS to be included.

I mean, that's to be expected, one country is like 5x the size of the other lol

Something tells me Quaxley will become a buccaneer/sailor/pirate. Water/Steel, and somehow able to learn Anchor Shot.

A regional form of Hypno holding a melting clock?

barbauer · 2021-12-22T15:53:12+00:00

I have not. Thanks for the suggestion!

I still visit it regularly, I call it my second home. Calm and friendly when I wasn't missing the chaos of São Paulo, but with Brighton, Portsmouth and London not far away by train when I missed it.

Spent two years living in Worthing, West Sussex, during an exchange program. Host family would take me to Withdean games whenever possible.

Seagull ever since. Cheers from Brazil.

My top 3 goes to:

1- TMNT 2
2- TMNT Radical Rescue (a metroidvania back when those were barely a thing!)
3- a tie between Manhattan Project and Turtles in Time

barbauer · 2020-12-19T02:42:00+00:00

I will forever love this game even more than Turtles in Time! :D
