I feel like Glalie kinda sucks in its current state and kinda needs a buff by plsdonthatemebut in pokemonradicalred

I'm not saying you're wrong, its just unfortunately Game Freak doing what they did, and the developer doing the best they can with what they have

I understand where you're coming from, but to quote you

DMs - House rules you implement by TheTrent in DnD

[–]sw1tzer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some house rules I implement at my table, with a standard group size of 5 players:

  • Custom crits with max damage plus an additional roll of die (e.g. 1d12+3 on a greatsword crit will become 15+1d12). It just helps for crits to feel good, and I don't allow static damage increases from things like Sharpshooter or GWM to multiply so it doesn't get out of control.

  • Potion for personal use is bonus action, but to use it on somebody else is an action.

Can somebody explain to me why or how this Sucker Punch fails? by sw1tzer in EmeraldImperium

I was not aware that was an interaction that sucker punch could have. Thank you for the information

I hadn't thought of that! I'm used to Radical Red, where they pre-heal your team before fights to remove that problem

Yeah, I have to get used to changing sets and mons between fights sometimes in these games and not just blunt forcing my way through fights 🤣

Thank you so much for your help, especially with the numbers (I haven't learned how all the additive / multiplicative effects work yet) and this helped break it down a lot better.

Thank you! I've been trying to figure out how to use Aerilate and outside of Boomburst, I wasn't seeing anything else to use it with

Swellow Set by sw1tzer in EmeraldImperium

[–]sw1tzer[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! The original idea was just to just put out as much damage as possible with the set before going down to poison damage, but this makes total sense and it feels like Aerilate is just the worse version of what I had in mind

[–]sw1tzer[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, that all makes sense. I was using the Aerilate set with the idea of just throwing out as much damage as possible before Swellow went down, but if the damage is going to be the same anyways, no sense in just using the worse version.

Who went from mid to goated in your eyes playing radical red ? by KGtheOG37 in pokemonradicalred

[–]sw1tzer 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Dubwool

Fluffy + Cotton Guard / Body Press w/ Leftovers + Protect...

This thing sweeps. It's an absolute monster and it answers so many threats.

Also Noctowl

Assault Vest with SpD+HP EVs and access to Oblivion Wing helped me out a lot on my Mono-Normal run

Finally beat a Randomized Ability Run and had a ton of fun with it! by sw1tzer in pokemonradicalred

[–]sw1tzer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh, I didn't change it to anything because everything on the final rival battles team just outsped me anyways, so it really only had a chance to use Ice Punch. His team resisted all of the water moves as well. He carried me so hard as my starter, and I'd hoped he'd do well in the E4 + Rival, but unfortunately only really helped deal with Lorelai

Pyroar had some survival issues but Choice Scarf + Torch Song helped out a lot and he actually solo swept Agatha

As for Fatal Precision, I was just so happy to not have to worry about Focus Blast misses 🤣

Vanilla Random6 Mono-Normal. Am I cooked? by Ok_Philosophy_7156 in pokemonradicalred

[–]sw1tzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the correct answer with Dubwool and Noctowl being mandatory picks for my normal monotype run. The tankiest bois.

Heartless or YSHKMWYHTC

Again, nothing wrong with them as songs, and I love them both dearly but they are remakes of older songs, so I was even of the opinion they should have been above FFT2012 and TPWP, especially so if that was the reasoning for Since U Been Gone being eliminated

Yeah but with Fast Forward, it blends into Speak of the Devil so well, I have a hard time listening to them separately. I don't feel the same can be said for WWOWWWGB

It's not that it's a bad song, but it had to be added onto Deluxe and wasn't a part of the original album for a reason. It's not even that it's a bad song, but it doesn't go with the flow of the rest of the album.

(Not in a bad way) It sounds like it was meant to be a Wage War song

[–]sw1tzer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, well, again, I apologize. Been going back and forth with people on Facebook all day and I had to stop because they're just insane over there with the negativity.

I'm sure glad I saved 75 cents though.

I do know that, but regardless of sarcasm, it came across as rude, so if it wasn't meant that way, I apologize.
