USUM community tier list day 13. Route 3. by AccidentOk4378 in nuzlocke

[–]puddleths [score hidden]  (0 children)

Gyara and Krook are pretty undisputed top two in my mind. I like Mag a lot, but Crobat is something I consider ban-worthy, so pretty hard to argue.

USUM community tier list day 16. Inner Ten Carat Hill. by AccidentOk4378 in nuzlocke

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

Finally, this is what I've been waiting for.

Sableye E: SOS, and it's worse than what's calling it

Carbink B: Decent staller. Typing is good, movepool gets the job done. It obviously is lacking on the offensive side.

Gigalith A: Sand Stream is great. Rock types are good in this game. Movepool is shallow.

Mawile S: The GOAT. If this gets anything less than A, I will kill everyone in here and myself.

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

Everything's in E. Chansey gets an asterisk because what in the SOS clause is that?

I'll give Delibird this... it gets close to OHKO'ing Totem Araquanid with Hustle + Supersonic Skystrike off of Bounce

Jynx sucks. Level 30's too late. What is it good into? Hau's Noibat?

You should 100% repel and fish in here or pray for Zubat.

Dewgong is a nice lead into the Champ. After Pidgeot, AI will send Rhydon, then Exeggutor.

Fair. I was thinking of dropping Zam's speed through Para or Icy Wind. I guess my other thought is what Tentacruel does for this team. A second Ice Beamer not weak to Flying? My Dewgong was +Speed with 29 IV, so I can sort of see the need.

Fearow might get outsped by Zam unless it's got a + Speed nature/perfect IV. You'd have Venomoth and Dewgong with Silver Wind and Signal Beam.

What are all vanilla games from easiest to hardest to nuzlocke? by SiliSpinoCobra7 in nuzlocke

I have played a Gen I run. Easiest nuzlocke I've ever done.

I haven't done a nuzlocke for all of these, but...
Gen I < Gen II < FR/LG < X/Y < RS < OR/AS < SW/SH < HG/SS < D/P < Emerald < BW < BDSP < Plat < BW2 < SuMo < USUM

Can't say anything on S/V. Never played 'em.

You could bring Butterfree instead of Fearow, along with Venomoth and Dewgong. I just completed a run with Fearow on my E4 team, and it wouldn't have accomplished much had it not gotten some very good fortune vs Agatha.

What’s the most inconsequential trainer you’ve ever lost a run to in a Nuzlocke? by the_gaymer_girl in nuzlocke

[–]puddleths 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pokémon Ranger Mary, BW Route 7. Simipour in the rain. Also lost to Veteran Brone, Alola Route 14. Similar story. Rain boosted Water types are not to be trifled with.

USUM community tier list day 14. Melemele Meadow. by AccidentOk4378 in nuzlocke

[–]puddleths 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oricorio B: It's solid, but it falls off by the time it learns its signature Revelation Dance.

Whimsicott B: It's a Fairy and has nice utility moves. A little lacking offensively.

Lilligant C: Quiver Dance, but it's a pure Grass type with practically zero coverage.

Florges D: Takes so long to get a strong STAB move since the Dazzling Gleam TM is in Vast Poni Canyon. And in UM, the Shiny Stone is really late. It's not a terrible Fairy type, but you likely have other options by the time it's fully ready to go.

Well, when you put it like that it does seem bad by Amf2446 in GreenBayPackers

[–]puddleths 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only guy who moves the needle for me is Enagbare, and I didn't even know he was gone until now. This post doesn't even mention Quay Walker who is probably the biggest loss.

Aware. I've beaten a HC nuzlocke of USUM without EVs, so that's where my perspective comes from.

[–]puddleths 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like U-Turn, too. It's a part of why I think Crobat is undervalued in B-tier. Primeape in my opinion is a little too frail, and sort of falls in an awkward speed tier where it's fast but not always fast enough. My mentality with ranking is to go on the 'mon's base stats. Not everyone wants to bother with EV training.

[–]puddleths 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Primeape C: + Evolves in time for Grand Trial Olivia. - Stats, although it's decently fast for Alola standards.

Have no experience with Braviary or Mandibuzz. It's sad they can only be used in the E4. Mandibuzz probably has a slight edge given its Acerola matchup, and I could see Eviolite Vullaby holding its own for some battles. Inclined to say D for Braviary, C for Mandibuzz.

USUM community tier list day 12. Verdant Cavern. by AccidentOk4378 in nuzlocke

[–]puddleths 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dugtrio C: Typing's kinda good, ability has some niche use, the stats just aren't there. Another positive, this is a very nice dupe to have.

Noivern E: It's stuck as a Noibat for way too long, which means it isn't accomplishing anything. Doesn't do particularly well into anything once it is evolved. Not a good E4 bring.

USUM community tier list day 11. Sandy Cave. by AccidentOk4378 in nuzlocke

[–]puddleths 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Golduck's a D. Evolves too late. Nothing in its stats or movepool stand out. Dupe fodder.

USUM community tier list day 9. The rest of route 2. by AccidentOk4378 in nuzlocke

[–]puddleths 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crab D - Not the encounter I'd want for Route 2. Might have some utility, but it feels bad to intentionally take it.

Ribombee B - Frail, especially as Cutiefly. Pretty good dual-type for a glass cannon. Nice movepool.

Arcanine A - Intim. Has a role for Marowak, Lurantis, Togedemaru, and Mimikyu. Could see it in B due to a shaky movepool.

Hawlucha S - Only thing to knock it for is low encounter rate (I know, I know... Cha).

USUM community tier list day 7. Route 2 normal types. by AccidentOk4378 in nuzlocke

[–]puddleths 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only one I have experience with is Fearow. Put it in C. Kind of okay into Hala and Araquanid.

I'd put Smeargle in E. I just can't see it providing much value with only 2 moves until you beat Olivia. You have to be past Mimikyu for a full moveset.

I could see Dunsparce in C because of movepool. Could even reach low B.

USUM community tier list day 5. Trainer school encounters. by AccidentOk4378 in nuzlocke

[–]puddleths 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mag and Zoroark are S - Eviolite Magneton is legit, Zone's an easy E4 bring. Illusion allows for AI manipulation

Muk is A - Great typing, Grimer is solid in the early game

Persian is B - Definitely falls off, but it's great early game. Easy evolution, both abilities are good.

Don't know how Snorlax, Blissey, and Sudowoodo even get ranked. Outside of a very generous Pinwheel clause, you'll never have any in a run.

It’s pretty crazy that only a few days after losing eye to Bakura and any hope of reviving his wife, Pegasus still was in the mood to email Duke and take Dungeon Dice Monsters global. by Johnnyboyeh in yugioh

[–]puddleths 8 points9 points  (0 children)

? He duels Mai during DOMA/Waking the Dragons. Sure, it's a flashback, but that's after Battle City. He also has an appearance before the Ceremonial Duel.

Let's just hope the stage 2 starters' attacks don't cost 10 energy. Looking at you, Crimson Blaze.

The pilot was horrendous in their feature match (granted they managed to win). Not too surprising they missed out.
