@PikaHikariKT Sweet Kiss on a mon with 60/55/80 bulk, 160 SpA and 130 speed? Nah, you're supposed to nuke with that thing. The only non-attacking move you should ever be using is Nasty Plot.

Besides, confusion has always been pretty terrible, even moreso post-nerf.

TFW the random useless event move from 25 years ago completely breaks a Pokémon in a homebrew meta

If Tapu Koko had Rising Voltage I think less people would've only found out this week that it doesn't get the 2x damage boost against non-grounded Pokémon.

All this talk of Mega Raichu Y potentially being sent to Ubers... it only took 30 years, but they finally made something Pikachu-adjacent that isn't complete trash! And it wasn't for lack of trying, either!

[Slowflake @Slowflake1601]

ISTG if the best Mega Raichu X sets end up being the special ones I'm gonna blow the whole goddamn fuse box

[Slowflake @Slowflake1601]

Mega Raichu X has Electric Surge, and Y has No Guard.

Looking forward to Zap Cannon + Focus Blast shenanigans with the latter!

Marathon's free week is off to the worst start. It hit 30k concurrent players and the servers immediately decided to take the day off. This is the final Hail Mary the company's survival depends on, and they couldn't make sure they had servers that weren't prehistoric Pentium 4s?

[Slowflake @Slowflake1601]

Oh god Yoshi's acceleration is gonna be a pain to get used to...

[Slowflake @Slowflake1601]

It's weird how both of the Iron Adonis Twins have different Tattle Log entries despite being the same enemy.

It was even weirder in the original where you had a handful of bosses you fought twice with very different attributes and they counted as the same enemy anyway!

[Slowflake @Slowflake1601]

@Nightlingbolt The best part is, the bait-and-switch with Death is one of the most famous parts of the game. Even a lot of people who've never played a Castlevania game know about it by now!

[Slowflake @Slowflake1601]

Oh god DSP is playing SotN and HE DIED BEFORE THE FIRST SAVE POINT

HOW DO YOU MANAGE THAT

[Slowflake @Slowflake1601]

@Nightlingbolt I think he's played a few before, and he's stated a while ago that he played this one once, but stopped at the halfway point.

[Slowflake @Slowflake1601]

This is a step up from the usual "Indian man dies after getting hit by train", "Indian man dies after touching high-tension line" and "Indian man dies after drowning in six inches of water". Points for creativity!

[Slowflake @Slowflake1601]

@Nightlingbolt Problem is, there's a whole intro segment that reenacts the end of the previous game, and you have to redo that too if you fail to make it to the save point.

[Slowflake @Slowflake1601]

@Nightlingbolt As it turns out, Phil went back the way he came after the scene with Death for some insane reason and got destroyed by the powerful monsters that had respawned.

[Slowflake @Slowflake1601]

Is it just me or do enemies drop their held items a lot more often? I just picked up an HP Plus from a random Paragloomba. You know, because Ms. Mowz needed to be EVEN MORE WORTHLESS.

[Slowflake @Slowflake1601]

I don't remember Crump's fake pedestal in the Great Tree looking that much different from the real ones in the Gamecube version. I know this question is coming back often, but is this new?

[Slowflake @Slowflake1601]

The Super Appeal P being in Flurrie's bedroom has to be a deliberate choice, right? It's a very thematic pick, at least...

[Slowflake @Slowflake1601]

Ah yes, "it already sucks, let's nerf it harder", my favorite

[Katie McAteer @PikaHikariKT]

@Slowflake1601 Hammer Throw pierces too, but now it sucks even more cause it only does 2 damage REGARDLESS of which Hammer you have.
