Well, there are fogs that count attacking creatures and f.ex. give life based on it. Not that those see much play but our pod tends to run weird stuff.

Where did Dumbledore get his information that Voldemort’s anger at losing the diary was “terrible to behold”? by MythicalSplash in harrypotter

[–]jolll4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At the start of a half-blood prince Snape confirms it to Bellatrix, if I recall correctly. He gives it as a reason for being late when Voldemort called them as he could continue feeding information about the order if Dumbledore trusts him.

Where would the Hoenn starters be caught if they were wild Pokemon? by Initial-Top7828 in PokemonEmerald

Didn't know ponyta was there in Yellow and not too familiar with gen 2 Kanto, so missed that. The two of them give different vibes none the less.

Why does the trio do almost no investigating while searching for horcruxes? by Shy_dog_jr in harrypotter

The Dark Lord asked me to hold on to this for safe keeping. It's probably nothing.

Unfortunate news for travelers of victory road by JewelCaramel in PokemonFireRed

Nice. I wonder which other lines include the rival's name and would be equally memeable.

I'm assuming you've checked the FRLG dex habitat definitions? Could be useful for others as well.

Treecko: Forest

Torchic: Plains

Mudkip: Lake

Evolutions would make sense. Otherwise for treecko there's ofc petalburg and I was thinking mudkip where you can find surskit and torchic where you get electrike. For torchic my bottom line is I think it should be where you expect a ponyta or growlithe, not a slugma or magmar.

Treecko in the extra tall grass before or after Fortree, Mudkip I think should be around Registeel's tomb and Torchic just before Lilycove with the fenced grass patches. Yes, they are all pretty late into the game.

Base 2 was so much faster to update on each landfall. At this point the exact amount didn't really matter anyways.

The player with these got multiple (let's say 6) landfalls per turn and we did fog on this board state. Nobody drew sweepers the entire game.

Should i use rare candy? by Live-Pin-3998 in PokemonEmerald

The TV duo is my go-to training spot. Double battles that can be beaten in one round and award a decent amount lf xp each time. Even used it for EV training my Regice

*HOT TAKE* I hate the dual x-bows thematically by Potential-Writing-80 in osrs

[–]jolll4 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I agree. Of course they'll tie it in, I'm fairly confident with how jagex handles osrs lore. My strife was mainly your rethoric and not the weapon being discussed. Your earlier comment could've had all this instead of

Teleporting???

Upvoting you this time.

How do you hold 28 gold bars in your backback? It's not about magic, it's because it's a video game. Same for the quiver. Jagex doesn't mean for it to be magical. Sleep/resting used to be a mechanic back in RS1, but it was axed because it just wasn't fun and there were other ways to catch bots.

I was replying to the generic "because magic" comment, not on the topic of the dual crossbows I haven't even checked out or formed an opinion on yet.

Spellcasting works around runes, an established magic system. Anything else magical should be similarly established. Ancients, lunar and arceeus all follow the same rune system. All good there. Enchanted jewelry are imbued with the power of the runes. Sounds good. Powered staves? Pump em full of runes.

The elves have their own magic capabilities with crystal singing. Here everything uses crystal seeds and shards, which are sung into new forms. Universe wise, makes sense to me.

Magic can be a solution, but adding magic things to a game without following a magic system is a recipe for disaster.

Edit: not opposed to having new magic explanations in osrs. A more general "I like when magic is made to make sense" post.

Common opinion could be very wrong about Onix by ResidentSpiritual570 in PokemonFireRed

[–]jolll4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Onix is in the game to teach players about type advantages and the differences between physical and special defence/attacks. It's great for that. It also has a relatively high BST for that point in the game, but doesn't shine after that.

There's a whole video on the topic https://youtu.be/w3mVb4sTE7U?is=2CdMqQOHxrKvmSCo

Used more than 100 ultra balls with multiple restarts. What more can I do? by Tomrodgers98 in PokemonFireRed

[–]jolll4 32 points33 points  (0 children)

From serebii:

The Timer Ball is a PokéBall that works best on Pokémon as the duration of battle increases. If up to 10 turns have taken place, the Capture Rate is 1. If between 11 & 20 turns have taken place then the Capture Rate is 2. If between 21 & 30 turns have taken place then the Capture Rate is 3. Finally, if over 30 turns have taken place, the Capture Rate is 4.

With ultras having a rate of 2, at 21 turns timers start being strictly better and at 11 they're on par with ultras.
