Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted October 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 I wish we got the Steelix like Japan did, tbh. I mean, I don't hate Glalie, but it's mega evolution just looks ugly - that large gaping mouth isn't exactly appealing, I would say. As for Steelix, it's mega looks pretty cool; those crystals and blue rings really add a nice touch to it and apparently it even gets its own gravitational force surrounding it :P Yeah, I'd rather have Steelix over Glalie as well. Think I ran through it about 14-15x already, so no more gifts and yeah it's repetition now. Only wish we could choose the gender of player, but meh.

~British Soul~ Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 Only wish we could choose the gender of player, but meh. And the name as well. Ofc, I'm not dissing the name Orlando, it just isn't my cup of tea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted October 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 Yeah, that too. It's not that bad of a name, but would prefer to use my standard one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryūkishin Sapphira Posted October 26, 2014 Report Share Posted October 26, 2014 I can only imagine how female players feel having to play a boy right now. While I don't mind it; would've appreciated it a lot more if they allowed a gender choice (the forced girl name might have been fine). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted October 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2014 That's true. Then again, XD/Colosseum never gave you that option [and so did the Gen 1 games]. But I started the games in 4th generation or something, so yeah not a true Pokemon gamer. Don't blame me though; Pokemon games always are expensive and were probably sold out at the time.

Ryūkishin Sapphira Posted October 27, 2014 Report Share Posted October 27, 2014 I'm planning on getting Alpha Sapphire. What about you all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted October 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2014 Same thing; Alpha Sapphire. I would buy both, but not enough money. (And your name is derived from the word "sapphire" in other languages; coincidental much?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zextra Posted October 27, 2014 Report Share Posted October 27, 2014 Alpha Sapphire for me as well. Btw, there's apparently a dual-box version which includes both games - but at $79.98, so no discount whatsoever. However, included as a bonus is...a download code for 200 potions -_- http://kotaku.com/pokemon-omega-ruby-and-alpha-sapphire-bundled-together-1651196825 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted October 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2014 So 40,000 Pokedollars worth of Potions and I spend $80.00 on a dual package. Uh, I rather buy them separately. Besides, it's not like I actually USE 200 regular Potions [hell, I've used less than 100 regular ones in White 2, and I'm already in the final stages of killing Team Plasma; more use for the stronger ones]. Seriously, I spend more money getting Writs for X/Y's Battle Chateau [and I usually max out after about 60 fights with that said and done].

Ryūkishin Sapphira Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 I'll pass on the dual set as well. Not like I'll even use 200 Potions... Besides, games are expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted October 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 Yeah, I don't have the $80 to buy both versions; only enough for one or the other. Gamestop better have that poster when I pick up my Sapphire copy next month [of course it comes out during a school day; I suppose I can try picking it up after classes or have parents take me to mall on Saturday at earliest.] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Swan Song Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 glass cannon sweepers certainly do have their place in the meta as endgame monsters! hell probably still be low tier, though... like crobat, he's really weakened by that stealth rock weakness, and he doesn't get taunt...

Do you understand our club rules?: I don't see how I wouldn't. Yes. Never did this club stuff before, I might honestly forget to come here sometimes, but we'll see. Mega Beedrill. Most likely will be an RU late-game sweeper. Sure it hits hard but even defensive Pokemon will be able to take it down. Not saying I dislike it, might be my favorite new Mega.

(´⊙ω⊙`) (´⊙ω⊙`) (´⊙ω⊙`) That's true; sweepers are generally used for cleanup after other stuff weakens/kills the other relevant threats.

Azure Wolf Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 As I have never done competitive battling on any of the Pokemon games I have owned I want to changed that for ORAS, so what would probably be the best to use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted October 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 To be honest, not really sure. I don't play competitive either, but what kind of team are you planning to use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yemachu Posted October 31, 2014 Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 As I have never done competitive battling on any of the Pokemon games I have owned I want to changed that for ORAS, so what would probably be the best to use? From the information we have gotten so far, there doesn't seem to be much of a difference between the versions. Also, Global Trade Station can help you obtain the version exclusives/missing pokemon. So I would say it is mostly a matter of which Evil team (Aqua or Magma) or box you like more. Though I must say that Primal Groudon seems better than Primal Kyogre: Groudon's ability takes its 4x weakness away; Kyogre's ability makes 1 of its weaknesses more accurate (Thunder). It is not yet known whether or not they require items to perform Primal Devolution, but I think so. Since it is somewhat hard to come by a special Item via GTS, I would advice to choose the version which includes it. Regarding competitve battling, it is moreso a matter of carefully planning your team and breeding the 'perfect' candidates for them. A "Destiny Knot", "Everstone" and Ditto (with multiple 31 IVs) come in handy here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted October 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 Yeah, Kyogre gets the short end of the stick this time around. Probably should've gotten Omega Ruby, but oh well. [Can probably ask one of my friends IRL to clone the version exclusive stuff if needed; or wait until Pokedit adapts to Gen 6 stuff.] I generally avoid GTS unless I really need stuff, because sometimes people want event Pokes for crappy things (there are some reasonable ones though).
