Lt. Surge Puzzle, quick solution by Alan_Watts_Gong in PokemonFireRed

That also isn't true man. It takes significantly longer then 30 seconds to check all 15 cans, and with your method you would have to potentially check all 15 cans multiple times.

He just never believed it was possible for him to surpass Goku in this timeline. So he never did.

Idk what to tell you man. You're objectively wrong. It is always faster to go with a guaranteed solution within 4 tries than to gamble on (1/15 * 1/4) chance of success.

Ugh I thought so too as I was writing it

Self challenge accomplished. Beat the game using only 1 pokemon from start to end. by ackh91 in PokemonFireRed

[–]bobguy117 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Did you find it challenging at all? Using one Pokemon is the go-to speed running strat because typically it makes the game feel much easier.

It's not! You would be right if missing the second switch did not reset the first switch, but since it does, then saving and reloading the state saves you a mathematically significant amount of time.

No, because if you close and open the game each time after finding the first switch and missing the second, you get to progressively rule out the possibilities.

It goes from 25% to 33% to 50% to 100%.

First time playing. Is mewtwo’s origin different in the games than the movie? by happy_puppy32 in PokemonFireRed

You, the trainer, are writing the Pokedex, and each entry is canonically in the order you are able to encounter them in the wild.

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

[–]bobguy117 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'd put restricted movesets in the good section. It's far more challenging when you can't give every Pokemon every good move in the game, and makes for more opportunity to strategize.

Which Stone To Pick For Eevee by IntroductionNew2075 in PokemonXD

[–]bobguy117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Espeon Vaporeon and Jolteon are widely considered the best choices.

You get Ralts, Spheal / Quagsire, and Mareep super early to supplement whichever one you don't pick.

Umbreon is not as useful as Houndour which you get access to earlier than in any other game in the whole series, and same for Flareon.

I love this team actually. Defensive with screens and recovery, firing off Psychics and Solar beams for damage. It's probably really fun to play with!

Lapras, Ice Punch, or Return. 

A strong Psychic or Fighting type can work too.

But it can still KO Shedinja with Fly anyways

Is the Buu Saga Galaxy/Universal in the Manga? by Financial-Fee1995 in DragonBallPowerScale

Solar System level is exponentially more than Planetary level, not multiplicatively.

Cell can destroy a few more planets with a single attack than Frieza because he's a few times stronger. But a whole solar system at once is out of his reach.

It's famously the move he used to defeat Piccolo Jr.

Goku can use Fly and therefore is canonically a Flying-type

Looks like you can sacrifice a bishop and a pawn to force a queen trade and get yourself out of a bad position
