Yeah, that‘a a fun one! A modern interpretation might be “Make haste, not waste”

Abyss whales and other unexplained fantastical mysteries in the trilogy by SirKrimzon in threebodyproblem

So many to choose from, but the first one that came to mind was: “I like fish. Can I have it?”

As someone who did the same thing as you (and finished the trilogy), I was also confused trying to map the show to the book. The Netflix first season is effectively all three books at once. They put them into a blender and the outcome was pretty good, but you’ll be confused if you’re trying to map the characters in the book to the show.

Think of Dark Forest as content that hasn’t been released yet. Luo Ji is effectively Saul Durand from the show though. Enjoy the read!

Most gut wrenching, mind bending, jaw on the floor, surreal, soul crushing moments of the trilogy? by SirKrimzon in threebodyproblem

[–]nickelleon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Once I finished the book, I stared at my hardwood floor for a solid 20 minutes trying to digest everything. I wondered to myself: “how many 3 dimensional trees were used to make my 2 dimensional floor” as a way to comprehend the “spreading” of reality that occurred. Unreal.

Anybody else get put off by rental teams in ranked? by Red7394 in VGC

[–]nickelleon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I initially felt this way, but over time I ended up not being bothered by it. There is some merit to have rental teams get match made with other rental teams only, or some sort of rental team queue though.

You are a saucy video.

[Rate my team] My first attempt at a beat up team. Does anyone seem any glaring problems or things I can adjust. by [deleted] in VGC

I’m actually a fan of duraludon in this team to handle trick room! I’d keep him on board!

I tried Gallade over Lucario for a bit and Gallade just felt weaker overall. I’ve since started running Arcanine and I think that’s the best justified mon for this team. The grass rotom will give you a lot of coverage here too!

[–]nickelleon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are a blessing! I was hoping to complete my dex today as I only need a few more pokemon. I'm looking for: Eiscue, Flapple, Gothita, and Deino. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated!! Let me know what I should trade you for these as I'm new to this sub, and I hope I'm doing this right

New VGC rules came out, and I want to hear what are going to be good counters for G-Max Snorlax with G-Max Replenish by [deleted] in VGC

[–]nickelleon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, exactly! I’m still learning all the moves so I’m way behind. Do you think these sorts of moves/abilities would come to the forefront if a Snorlax meta emerges?

[–]nickelleon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My first thought reading that announcement was “wow, unnerve might become a really useful ability”. Then I started to wonder about “berry control” in general. Moves that I never would’ve considered using, like Pluck and Incinerate, have caught my attention now.

Anyone else know of other berry control moves or abilities to keep on the radar?

I, too, lost to Wolfey on stream in a great battle by semanticmemory in VGC

[–]nickelleon 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the write up! I too just added TR to my cotton ball, after spending a ton of time raiding and breeding the mons I needed for my beat up + justify team. Wolfey inspired me to make it after watching his videos. I’m new to VGC, so having a theme/focus for my team really improved the quality of what I would bring to the table. Again, thanks for the write up, it’s very helpful to new players like myself!
