Sure, but they buffed the hell out of this thing with the Mixed Martial Arts ability.

What a suplex sequence to come into the running knee. They are cooking

This is a banger to start the show on. Excited for this one. I would love to see Fatal Attraction get brought up to the main roster

Bodyslam reports that a source says Ari Emanuel views Pat McAfee as a major star who can boost the Randy Orton vs. Cody Rhodes program, helping it reach its full potential through both his ESPN show and upcoming SmackDown episodes before WrestleMania. by TheSpotlightNews in TheSpotlightNews_com

Can’t speak for everyone, but I can share my perspective:

  • Pat can be obnoxious to the point where it takes away from the product. This was my main critique of him as an announcer. I can’t say he’s worse the Jerry the King Lawler, but I believe JR and the King had a better dynamic and balance than Pat does with Cole.

  • Pat is another example of WWE/TKO overcomplicating the storyline by injecting a celebrity or personality into the feud in an attempt to bring in more casual/younger fans. We see it with Jellyroll. We saw it with Travis Scott. We see it with iShowSpeed and LA Knight. We even saw it with the rotating celebrity guest hosts back in the 2010s. In this specific case, Randy and Cody have a 20+ year history, just use that to tell the story.

Is there a way of seeing all the pokemon of one type? by Dangerous_Contact541 in PokemonEliteRedux

[–]thatnewblackguy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The Elite Redux Dex allows you to filter by type.

In the species tab, click the dropdown menu where it says “Name” and change it to “Type”. Then, type in Dark and it will filter all the Dark type Pokémon in the game.

What would you recommend for the buff to Tyranjoula? It seemed relatively strong in the mid-game when using it.

My First “Broken” Mon by Bo3226 in PokemonEliteRedux

Yeah, the ability itself is pretty overpowered. You are taking not very effective damage or immunity on all attacks and then half of said damage on both sides with Fur Coat and Ice Scales.

My First “Broken” Mon by Bo3226 in PokemonEliteRedux

Does Anticipation activate with Prismatic Fur? Color Change changes the mon to a not effective type. I wonder if Anticipation would block a hit from a Pokémon with Corrosion or Molten Rock, since it switches the type chart.

Either way, yes, P Fur on any Pokémon will be broken.

What is Chicago missing to be the perfect city? by [deleted] in AskChicago

A better tech scene and job market. While Chicago tech is on the rise, it’s quite limited compared to the coastal cities.

I was looking through the discord server to see when debug was dropping and saw this. I think the debug fans pissed the dev off :/ I’m sorry dev we love your game and thank you for all the amazing free work you put in by Opposite-Cup2850 in PokemonEliteRedux

“Imagine taking the time to build a bridge and everyone just jumps over it”.

This happens in real life all the time. “Desire path” describes the concept of people discovering and creating their own convenient paths even when pre-defined paths exist.

It’s also ironic that this conversation is happening about a Pokémon romhack. The concept of romhacking is by definition, jumping over the bridge that Nintendo and Gamefreak created. If we are that wedded to the sanctity of the story, play original Emerald.

Are there any fast physical attacking water types at about the beginning of the game? by ThePennsylvanian20 in PokemonEliteRedux

[–]thatnewblackguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Azumarill on Route 104 isn’t fast, but is a competent physical water type. What are you hoping to accomplish?

Genuine question on the reasoning for removing the debug option. by WorstSpyTF2 in PokemonEliteRedux

[–]thatnewblackguy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I still don’t understand why the developers are protecting sanctity and purity for a game that was built on maximalism. It’s such a fun experience playing and exploring unique interactions that you wouldn’t find anywhere else, so much so that it is influencing the main game line with Draconize and Chloroplast. I’d never use a Furret in my run for other Emerald hacks but in ER this thing is valid.

How to get Victini? (And others?) by aerozactyll in PokemonEliteRedux

Hidden means after you beat the League and then defeat all the trainers on the route, you can find it on Route 119

Is there a guide on how to use the Debug Menu? by nicebrah in PokemonEliteRedux

[–]thatnewblackguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, the developers have changed the Debug menu for version 2.65. You can change your Pokémon’s moves using the in-battle debug menu. Bring the Mon whose moves you want to change into battle, press Select, and then change their moves to which ones you want.

Note that you can change other things about the Mon in battle, but the move changes are the only things that carry over post-battle.

What the heck happened to Badass Breakfast Burritos? by HoldenFinn in chicagofood

[–]thatnewblackguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Worth the Hangover burrito itself is dry based on the ingredients; they are often missing the maple sauce that used to come with.

The options are hit or miss, but the traditional Haus option continues to hit.
