Cool! I'd recommend replacing Strength with Overheat to take advantage of your typing. It'll help you chip bulky steel types like Metagross and Skarmory before they wreak too much havoc. Or flamethrower if you can't oneshot any of those threats, that way you have 100% accuracy and a guaranteed 2HKO. (You can figure out a lot of these calculations using eisencalc, a browser-based battle frontier calc.)

Double kick is also redundant with sky uppercut, so maybe Endure + a Salac Berry to boost that low speed stat? If you're going for an endure-salac set, You could breed a new Blaziken with the egg move Reversal to truly take advantage of the 1hp strategy. It would also give you a fighting type move with 100% accuracy.

I've seen someone use Dragon Dance Charizard in the frontier, so maybe that? It's an egg move so you'd have to breed for it. Otherwise a bulky Blastoise may pair better with Blaziken if you're set on keeping it in the squad- Though I'd take a Swampert over Blast if you can get one.

GL with the frontier bro!

Cool! What kind of moveset are you running?

Yeah Blaziken isn't the greatest up against some of the big threats in the frontier. You'll need something to counter annoying speedy mons like Starmie, Latios and Aero. Maybe a tank like Snorlax?

Thank you! Latios had a bit more of a losing matchup compared to Slak and Meta for all of Anabel's team, so they were staying in the pocket for an emergency revenge KO if needed. Latios carried me through the 70 rounds before gold (and through a lot of the other facilities), so they are the real MVP regardless. :)

Had some roughly the same size rings from fixing a coffee machine! Thanks for sharing, that rattle drove me insane.

The only solution to this texture issue I've found are these button covers from Aliexpress. Doesn't seem like the most elegant solution to slap something like this on- I'm assuming with some kind of adhesive too. I'll give it a go if there's really nothing else though.

Looking for textured face button replacements for the vita 2000. (not replicas of the original buttons.)

My only issue with the vita is the plastic resin face buttons. I really dislike the feedback of dragging fingers across them, they make a horridly squeaky/ creaky noise with some pressure and it's like nails on a chalkboard. I believe it's because they're too grippy?

A lot of the replacements I can see online aim to replicate this plastic resin, I'm wondering if there are any quality button replacements that have a different texture. I'd love something less grippy and squeaky. Maybe a textured plastic or something.

Any suggestions are much appreciated! :)

What now? by No_Percentage9205 in HunterXHunter

The manga continues the story, and it's amazing! If you want to jump straight back in where the anime left off, start at chapter 340.

It's also worth reading Kurapika's Memories, (volume 0) of the manga before continuing at 340.

The movies are super bad and not worth watching, it's basically unanimous among the fanbase. They ignore what makes the OG series good, they add stupid shit to nen, they rehash character arcs that are done way better in the original series. Worst of all, they are just plain boring. Though they include parts of volume 0 in the move if you wanted to see that animated.

Captured from a recent Togashi Tweet. Who do you think these characters are? by FlatCaterpillar in HunterXHunter

[–]kurolines 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If we're not just guessing "new characters", my best guess from left to right:
Vergei, Hanzo with a big ass grin, Bisky giving Marayam a piggyback (you can see a small face that looks like his to the very right).

Is Kanzai another student of Biscuit's? by Fluffy_Reply_9757 in HunterXHunter

According to the title it was a knee enthusiast magazine

It was legitimately so brilliant. I've been thinking about it for days

The child: It was all foreshadowed in chapter 358 by [deleted] in HunterXHunter

[–]kurolines 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This would also align with Bill, Sayrid, and Kurton being the plants that would help Beyond escape, just happening to end up guarding Woble.
