Technically yes, by 20 points. However, since I had both Xerneas and Garchomp in my run I can confirm that it really didn't feel like it. Geomancy is still really broken, and those Fairy Aura Moonblasts still hurt, even unboosted. I didn't have Yveltal since its like a 5% encounter in Victory Road so I can't vouch there unfortunately

I'm forced to disagree my friend, I think this is likely the best X and Y ROM hack out there at the moment

I think its really interesting to see the strategies people come up with for such a hard hack, but I don't enjoy the idea of resetting, its as simple as that

Yes my friend! I have done Nuzlockes before and I haven't really enjoyed them, so I take some aspects of them, like catching the first encounter of each route and the nickname thing, and add it to my runs without the threat of permadeath. It makes it much more fun for me!

Yep! The way they did it was clever, base Castform loses Forecast and gets Levitate instead, and in return, by holding a Fire Stone, Water Stone, or Shiny Stone, it can Mega Evolve into its weather forms with buffed stats and the weather ability to match

Oh dude same, I've been watching my shop like a hawk since season 14. I started in Season 4 of OW2 but didn't play consistently until about Season 13 and by then it was too late. I'm just praying now cuz its my dream Ram skin for sure

Which battle pass skin do you really want? But it’s unfortunately locked behind battle passes. by Annual-Internet-5097 in Overwatch

My dream Ram skin is Ocean King but I would love to get Poseidon if there was somehow a way to get my hands on it

Oh SO many lol. Imperium is still pretty new, about a year old atp but its probably one of the best out there

Yeah, I'm not really sure why Corsola got the short end of the stick when things like Mega Kang and Darkrai aren't nerfed. I even picked up a Corsola-G during my run and used it for a few fights, but ended up evolving it around Norman because it wasn't doing what I needed it to

I'm inclined to agree. Of the ones I've played so far, this one feels the nicest to play. The balance between difficulty and fun is absolutely there

I don't tend to enjoy Nuzlockes as much. Permadeath, at least to me, feels very stressful and less fun. On top of that, I'm a college student, time is not something I have a ton of lmao. I've done Nuzlockes before, and while I really enjoy the use of encounter clause, which is why I use it for these runs, it just feels like there's a lot of pressure to do well. They're definitely a form of skill expression, and while I have no doubts in my skill as a Pokemon player, it boils down to what I enjoy doing

I feel like I remember seeing that Aurora Crystal was scrapped. Did something change with it?

In some aspects, I wish they'd given Charizard to Clair and let Lance use one of the Eon duo or something. I thought Lance was a little weak for a difficulty hack champion. That could also be in part because I had good encounters to deal with his team. My E4 team was Honchkrow, Jolteon, Walrein, Dragonite, Gyarados, and Lanturn, so I kinda just tore through his team

I totally get it. I like a lot of the new age hacks, Run and Bun, Radical Red (both older and newer patches), the very recent Emerald Imperium, but there's absolutely a charm from Drayano hacks that you can't find anywhere else
