    I remember getting a Wailmer in Emerald, and became obsessed with training it to be my strongest pokemon, I had fished it up in Mauville so I just stayed in the desert with it. I had no idea Wailord existed, so when my Wailmer evolved, I learned the great lesson of persistence and patience, which gave me the confidence to raise any Pokemon despite the grind.
    I remember going after Flygon, getting so bored with the grind, but each time I wanted to quit, I just remembered "I got a Wailord without even trying, so I can do this!" And sure enough I was the envy of all my friends. People were constantly asking me to trade them my Flygon, one kid even wanted to pay me actual money. I never traded my Flygon. Still got him and the Wailord that inspired it all. Good job 10 year old me. We went on to hatch shinies. 😁 ✨

Using that honchkrow and an infernape i made to the elite 4. I was very new to pokemon at this point and thought my level 50 team was ready. Lost immediately and was shocked they were so strong, so i grinded on victory road until they were both in the 90's! That was the moment i came to love grinding in rpgs lol

      Doesn't negate what I said. He doesn't use one item because he said "i didn't use that items before" but is fine with using another item that he also didn't. Meaning if he's ok with using TMs despite not using them originally, then he should also be fine with using a master ball which he didn't use originally as well.
      Using TMs aren't in the "better knowledge" category of his rules, they'd be in the "doesn't use X item(s) due to not originally" part of his rules. Meaning that if they were apart of the "better knowledge" the usage of the master ball would also fall under it and thus he should be free to use it on Rayquaza.

      And they’ve been getting hate so much and I’m kinda sitting here like: well that escalated quickly.
      When did we have a simple battle system, that didn’t suck in both competitive and on player versus game (encompassing both Nuzlockers and Casual Playthroughs) that didn’t have a surprise gimmick?

    I also rarely used TMs. Partially because I didn’t want to “waste” them since as a kid, I thought the TM move would only last for a few battles. I also thought that all HMs were basically stab moves, so I often nerfed myself with HM moves. In fact, I made my first legendary ever caught, Giratina from Platinum, an HM mule. A legendary that had exclusively HM moves.

As such it can still be considered weaker then just saying the neck, since getting hit in the back of the neck wouldn't hurt as much, but would still be the neck.

      @pantherstripes4380 Před 2 lety +1

      Sorry for ruining your dreams but altaria sucked in gen 3 A LOT, it is practicaly useless as swablu and you are stuck with like peck, fury swipes and kinda ok sing (it has take down but only like 4 level pre evolution) after evolution it gets dragon breath wich is special so dragon dance is useless for its only stab option than fly (sky attack is at level 59 so basicaly post e4) and only good moves it gets to combination with d dance are earthquake and return others are special and I feel like putting non stab this valueable TMs on altaria is a waste also that move refresh it learns is useless due to its natural care ability, so like best moveset it can run is like dragon breath, d dance, earthquake, return/other game corner TMs, but most importantly it is viable only from like lvl 40 and you catch swablu at like lvl 15-20 idk so good luck with training it with its terrible stats. Sorry I am trying to not be offensive, personaly I really like altaria as a design and got way better later, take this as educational fact. PS: mightyena is useful with intimidate.

      @natedogmarik2554 Před 2 lety +2

      @@pantherstripes4380 actually you are terribly wrong! Altaria is a great mon in gen 3. It has a base stat total of 490 being a very bulky dragon in a generation with limited stab ice pokemon as well as only 3 dragon pokemon( one of them being even worse to get and the other not being able to use d dancer, as well as the other being a trade evolution). Secondly getting a nature on swablu is relatively easy given how easy it is to encounter(adamant nature). It had a fantastic move pool and can have some fun builds on it( attract toxic protect and some other move works well) or a set up build with d dance, dragon claw, earthquake, and idk sing to set up, stab flying move, or return. Honestly not sure where you went with your thinking on this cause dragon claw is actually easy to get (meteor falls btw) and your whole argument is that altaria learns no good physical stab move for d dance to be effective but once again it's part flying and has equal stats in special and physical so I really have no clue where your head was at with this comment

      I wouldnt say it's bad in compet, but in playthrough? It is just painful to train up, and most of good moves are from TMs I dont feel like it's easy to use, also the endgame has a wallace, chuan and glacia.... all of them having a plenty of ice moves. It is only good against..... well none major battle in hoenn and also is weak to tate and lisa, wallace/chuan, glacia so.... some d dance + earthquake/return wont save you much bcs of its actualy poor attack stat compare to other dragon types, as a tank it isnt good as well and toxic protect attract can run almost any mon so that's not good argument

    • @pantherstripes4380
      @pantherstripes4380 Před 2 lety

      Also if it's going to go against other dragon to use that super effective dragon move, it usually doesnt stand a chance so dragon is really bad offensively, I feel like there is nothing special on it, it isn't excelent at nothing wich makes it pretty plane and you can just find better mon. Lets take it like this: you catch swablu even the best nature possible until evolution it is garbage and thats a fact, when you reach level 35 you are at tate and liza where is claydol with ancient power, then water type gym with plenty of ice beams than e4 with ice specialist and dragon specialist wich just overpowers you and then (if emerald) champion water specialist with ice beams sooooo give an example where altaria does a great job against major battle......

  • @zexalbrony4799
    @zexalbrony4799 Před 2 lety

    This brings back some memories, the first Pokemon game I played was a Gen 3 Ruby. However, I was just a little kid back then, who only watched the anime and thus didn't understand certain things in the games because the show never explained it or did things differently so I didn't make it too far in the game.
    I picked Treeco as my Starter because Ash had one, I also caught a Tailow because again Ash had one, and a Wurmple because at this point in the anime May and Jessie had evolved there and I wanted either a Beautifly or Dustox so I leveled it up to evolve it into a Ddustox which was the only Pokemon besides my Starter who I was actively training, I also caught a Zigzagoon, a Shrumish, and a Nincada because I thought they looked cool or cute. I managed to beat Roxanne but really struggled with Brawly. In my first battle my Treeco fell to Brawly's Machop, but it had done enough damage that a Quick Attack from Tailow finished it off, but now I was in trouble as I had to face Brawly's ace Makoheta, and my Pokemon were severely under-leveled since I was only using my Starter to battle up until that point the highest level Pokemon I had after Treeco was Dustox which was level 10, Makoheta OHKed my Tailow, so I used Dustox to Poison it to hopefully stall out and win, but he quickly swept the rest of my team and healed before that could happen. I tried again when I had evolved my Treeco into Grovile, this time Grovile beat Machop and while it did lose to Makoheta it did some damage before going down, I brought in Dustox to Poison again and after it went down I brought in Tailow, I was only able to get in one hit that dropped Makoheta to low health before it OHKed Tailow again, but luckily Poison damaged finished the job and I won.
    After this my game playing stalled and I didn't progress, so I lent my copy of Ruby to my friend and neighbor to play, and for a while, we both forgot I lent him the copy, but when I finally did remember like a year or so later I got it back and found that my friend had got all 8 Gym Badges, evolved my Growvile into Sceptile, evolved my Tailow into Swellow, caught a Wailord, a Relicash, a Groudon, and a Golem, but he didn't do the Victory Road or the Pokemon League so after some exploring around the game, even getting luckily and finding Registeal, which took an eternity but I did manage to catch I took on Victory Road and caught a Hariyama, so I rolled up to the League with Sceptile, Swellow, Groudon, Registeal, Wailord, and Hariyama, however, I didn't understand what the League was because again I only watched the anime where the Leagues are massive Tournaments so I didn't know I'd be fighting the Elite 4 and that they wouldn't let me heal between matches, so I had to retry the League and I stocked up on Full-Restores, but I also didn't know that Full-Restores couldn't revived fainted Pokemon, luckily I did have a few already in my inventory, but by the time I got to Steven I was out of Revives and only had three Pokemon left the LV 44 Registeal, LV 43 Wailord, and the LV 40 Hariyama, and because I didn't want to have to fight the Elite 4 all over again because of how long it took I employed a completely BS startgy to win against Steven, it involved samming Full-Restores, Registeal's Iron Defense so he could keep tanking hits and stall, and Hairyama spamming Bulk Up to do more damage when it could attack. The battle took a while, I almost ran out of restoration items and Registeal was the only one left standing and had to KO 4 Pokemon, although the first one was softened up thanks to Hairyama, but I won in the end in my own, BS terrible way, but I did it. :)
