50% is too much. I wouldn't take Sharpness as an example of properly balanced Ability, and honestly wouldn't be surprised if it gets nerfed in the next gen. Strong Jaw is more understandable, because it's 50% but the "fang" move pool is easily outclassed by punch/slash moves on average, so it's...

Gatorade. Just because I like it as an alternative pun name for when it becomes Meowscarada.

Well, statistically, if you want to hit things for SE damage, the worst offensive type combo is in fact Normal/Dragon. I'd say Dragon most likely. Rarely have a Dragon type on my team, so that means no STAB... and without STAB you better just get an Ice or Fairy move, which are great against...

Double Team & Minimize Hail (RIP, replaced by Snowscape) Attract All Binding moves (Wrap, Fire Spin, etc.) All Ohko moves Focus Blast Dragon Rage (RIP)

Cute Charm: plays around a status ailment that I never liked to begin with. Hustle: Accuracy drop. Moody: Disgusting RNG Ability. Annoying to watch the stat boosts/drops every turn and trying to keep track of them. Quick Draw: Basically free Quick Claw. No strategy, just pray luck to attack...

Pokémon was never just animals and objects. It was fauna, flora, humanoids, insects, objects, ghosts/spirits, lab experiments, mythical creatures, aliens, and some that might be a combination between two or more of these. I personally have nothing against object-based Pokémon, in fact I widely...

I ended up playing the game twice. First "traditional" playthrough, second playthrough + DLCs using wild Tera Pokémon only. That leaves Kalos and Galar as the only main game regions I played through just once.

Usually somewhere between 30 and 60 hours, so I pick the third option I guess. Less than 30 is very unlikely. More than 60 is rare, but possible depending on the game. Longest playtime in one save file I had so far was 98:55, but that was in a difficulty oriented rom hack so definitely none of...

Only if I catch a considerable amount of Pokémon and need to keep them somewhat organized. But just very basic, usually I have a temp box for recently caught and potential future party members (or party members temporarily boxed if I have more than six active Pokémon), then the other boxes for...

I believe some gym types work better for specific moments in the game: Grass and Rock: Early These are the only two types with five weaknesses, so they're more suitable for an early game challenge as the player's options are more limited. Compared to other types, a late game Grass or Rock gym...

So I noticed that, according to the Discord, a lot of Pokémon have received major stats or typing changes. Is there a chance of those changes being optional or toggled off somehow to play an experience closer to the official games in that aspect?

Does anyone know if there's a way to turn off EV/DV gain? I remember my team stats being a bit OP in the late game and I'd like to avoid that if possible. Prism already has Abilities and unlimited TMs, even in the older release.

I don't know which one I chose the first time (it got boxed anyway), but if I had to choose Hitmonlee seems the better option in gen 1 and 3 due to the lack of PSS. But from Gen 4 onwards, with the elemental punches being actually useful to Hitmonchan, combined with its Ability Iron Fist, I...

This looks very interesting. I'm just confused about the difficulty settings after watching someone else playing on Youtube. Is there any difficulty setting where trainers have strong teams (and better AI if difficulty affects that) and fight with all their strength, but without getting free...

The less a status condition depends on luck, the more I like it. Burn (y) Poison (y) Leech Seed (y) Paralisis (y) Mainly used for the Speed drop (and for catching Pokémon, because Sleep is volatile). Don't count on opponents being fully paralized as a reliable strategy though. Sleep :unsure...
