Sephiroth's Super Nova is probably the most gratuitous attack ever inked in a game. In it, he obliterates most the planets in the solar system and detonates the Sun. And yes, he can cast it multiple times in the battle.
I think it's fantastic.
Did you know Gym Leaders are intentionally holding back against you?
• In Pokémon Origins, Brock asks Red how many badges he has. When Red says “zero,” Brock picks only TWO Pokémon.
• The Levels: The first Gym Leader’s Pokémon are around Lv 12-15. The eighth is only Lv 45-50. You’re telling me one of the region’s strongest trainers only has mid-40s Pokémon… when the Elite Four is sitting at Lv 60+?
• Larry: In Scarlet/Violet, Larry is BOTH a Gym Leader and an Elite Four member. As a Gym Leader he uses a pathetically weak Normal-type team. At the Elite Four he switches to a high-level Flying-type team. Same man. Two completely different power levels depending on his shift for the day. The game literally shows you he’s holding back.
• The Confession: In Black 2 & White 2, Cheren (the first Gym Leader) straight-up says the Gym Leader job is tough because “If I had my usual partners…” - admitting he can’t use his real competitive team against new trainers.
• The System: They stand in a building waiting for kids to walk in, use mono-type teams that are easy to counter.
• The Real Challenge: Notice the Champion is the only fight with a full balanced multi-type team. Everything before that was staged.
Every badge you earned was handed to you. The system was designed so you’d pass. You weren’t being tested - you were being trained.
Does this change how you see every Gym battle?
Dragon Ball and Sonic are two sides of the same coin.
Thank you Toriyama-sensei. Without you there would be no stopping big energy beams, fast teleportation sequences and amazing transformations in fiction.
Rest in Peace Akira Toriyama 🐉🟠 🙏
See a lot of folks discouraged lately they're not getting better faster at SF6. Here's the reality. Only 1,310 players are in Master rank right now. If there's been appox 1mil players thus far, that's .00131 of the playerbase. Not even close to 1%. Don't worry, you're doing fine.
SFV = We can't show jiggling titties or ass.
SFVI = We got ass, titties, buff women, feet, more ass, women in suits, bitches doing ballet, we got it ALL baby!
