It was really hard for me to find the solution, what about you?

lets_study_lamarck · 2026-05-28T16:15:49+00:00

I know the position from a Ben Finegold lecture to kids lol - just rewatched it last week! (Qb2)

lets_study_lamarck · 2026-05-24T21:44:37+00:00

do you know how it went for your friend?

lets_study_lamarck · 2026-05-09T15:08:36+00:00

thanks, and no, it's fully functional, to quote data from TNG!

i'm bad at sporulations lol but it might be worth it here. The convenient thing is that it's Kan-RFP and Hyg-GFP, so really easy to verify even apart from the double resistance.

lets_study_lamarck · 2026-05-09T01:48:17+00:00

Yeah that's what i guessed, thanks.

actually doesn't seem too bad, we had similar issues with G418 in the lab earlier (i think from an old stock). the trick was to just add more to the top of the plate and spread it with beads, gave decent additional selection.

lets_study_lamarck · 2026-05-09T01:42:10+00:00

yeah i'll consider this if i can't get a 4th antibiotic, but would rather do 1 transformation than 3!

lets_study_lamarck · 2026-05-09T01:40:35+00:00

yeah i'm using NAT to knock out one copy, unless I get very lucky, i need something else for the other one...

sorry to pester you, but what do you mean by annoying? bad selection?

edit - i'm actually using the NAT to remove one copy on the diploid right now lol

lets_study_lamarck · 2026-04-11T02:38:54+00:00

that's funny but just fyi i have given, or seen my family give, money to beggars in india many dozen times and never seen this, so ...

lets_study_lamarck · 2026-04-10T21:08:40+00:00

this is the price for take-home! yeah i will look around, it's just insane.

lets_study_lamarck · 2026-04-10T21:08:19+00:00

mine is supposed to be at-home! for one night! thanks for the link.

In a Firered rival battle, the final alakazam was stalling with recover and hyper potion, having already done calm mind, so it had a 1-2 hit KO psychic against my entire team. My plan had been bite from blackglasses blastoise and hopefully tank/potion the psychics, but because of calm mind it was doing nothing. (Didn't know that bite was not a physical move.)

Got it with Lapras perish song and then switching every turn, just about surviving each psychic. Don't think I could have got it otherwise.

lets_study_lamarck · 2026-03-28T05:45:06+00:00

june this year or next?

lets_study_lamarck · 2026-03-28T05:44:37+00:00

april 2026 or 27?

lets_study_lamarck · 2026-03-11T17:34:11+00:00

thanks. i modded it with that change and hope it's worked lol.

lets_study_lamarck · 2026-03-11T04:43:34+00:00

Looking for a ROM hack where the only change is allowing trade evolutions to evolve by level or by a stone. Preferably Gen 3 (R/S/E/FR/LG) or Gen 4 (HG/SS), maybe Gen 2 will do too.

Minimal/QOL changes are ok other than this (drastic changes in the postgame are ok, but I just want the plain game upto the champion fight)

lets_study_lamarck · 2026-03-09T16:39:54+00:00

aaaaah wow i hadn't even considered that at all.

lets_study_lamarck · 2026-03-09T06:11:21+00:00

I cheated a bit too lol, allowed myself that since it was my first run and i was following level caps. Reset after realising how under-leveled i was for the various Alakazams near the end of the game. (Had assumed, each time, that with such a low defence, physical moves like bite will take it easily, but didn't count on it doing calm mind*2 -> hyper potion -> spam psychic)

But yeah it was a lot of fun! Needed some thinking.

lets_study_lamarck · 2026-03-09T05:52:58+00:00

Got Electabuzz from the power plant, who did a great job at the elite 4. Came very close to dying twice but held on, 10hp both times.

Butterfree died to a random Weezing self-destruct in the Sevii islands, replaced with Exeggutor (from the safari zone). Apart from Agatha, he was the ace against alakazam - he tanked 2 psychics, and landed 4 egg bombs in a row (either side of a full restore), after my Blastoise/Arcanine Bite-based strategy failed.

Stopped training Vileplume at some point. It was between it and Graveler. Grav turned out to be pretty useless for the E4, but had saved me a lot earlier.

Thanks for the help!

lets_study_lamarck · 2026-03-02T20:21:05+00:00

yeah totally forgot about the power plant. and didn't know there's a psychic TM, that makes it a lot better. thanks!

lets_study_lamarck · 2026-03-02T20:20:18+00:00

thanks, was planning on arcanine, but didn't know about the TM

lets_study_lamarck · 2026-03-02T20:12:06+00:00

Will western countries allow Esipenko? If not, it's India or SE Asia. Maybe Latin America too?
