So, I read about this. There is nothing indicating he does, it's a couple of his family members who don't want him there. They need to butt out and let him decide where he'd be happy.

Yeah even if your mentality is not to shoot first, just being able to do so keeps the defense honest.

Yeah, not only did she cause the destruction of their secret Metroid breeding facility, she is also the last living thing with Metroid DNA. They definitely want her. Actually an idea I had before was that they should start the next Metroid game with "The last Metroid is in captivity. The galaxy is at peace." and then pan the camera down to see Samus in Federation custody, imprisoned before the game begins. This would be the explanation for why she doesn't have any powers at the start too

This is what I thought the game was. According to the website, there is a blurb that says trapped on a mechanical alien world, so it doesn't seem to be the case though just going off that. I could be wrong though, but if I'm not, I definitely would've wanted them to take it the GF direction.

Beewolves vs Moose
The Beewolves started us off with a run in the 1st, but it could've been more with some better baserunning. With runners on 1st and 2nd 1 out, the hitter hits a ball into the outfield that the runner at 2nd holds off on because they think it might be caught, ends up not caught, and they can only make it to 3rd. Next bat is a double play which cost them a run. The moose get a run the next inning but also waste a bases loaded, no out situation by going K, flyout, ground out. Then in the 5th, the Moose get a 2 run homer, while in the 7th, the teams trade homers. Buster bigs had a not so great game, he got a couple of hits but lazy fielding early on cost a run, then he got caught stealing later, and here in the 8th wiht the tying run at the plate he strikes out looking on an easy ball down the middle, with increased stats because of the pressure. We do get some drama in the 9th though, wiht a solo shot bringing the beewolves to within 1 and the next batter getting on base, but the final batter grounds out on a barely-fair ball to 1st.

Beewolves - 3
Moose - 4

We emerge from the church to find Cid staring into the distance, and he confirms that Memoria disappeared 50 years ago, and this is the place his grandpa went to as well. We also learn that Cid's other main goal is to complete the airship his gramps started building before the whole town disappeared, so our goal becomes finding out the mystery behind Memoria, and the stuff like the airship etc will come along as we go.

We decide to go exploring the town a bit since the fire is back and I thought shops would open up, and we happen upon a fellow who runs "Marris' Mola Mola." He begins to ask us to help him remember something against the mayor's wishes, but sure enough there's the Bell. This is another challenge dungeon, so I'm beginning to think the challenge dungeons are all optional. Well maybe not "optional" per se, like I'd imagine I want to do this at some point, but it wasnt' part of the main quest that I can tell. This one's description is "Make a Beeline: A long hallway! Use items to battle your way through" so uh, that sounds interesting? We try out the job thing and I instantly realize what the job points are for, they're for leveling up your specific job. My "Natural" job is level 2 from earlier while the others are lv 1. Since this is going to be an extremely battle based dungeon from the sound of it, seems like as good a time as any to try out the knight, as it does actually change my stats as do the other jobs. This gives me more defense in exchange for magic and "psyche" (no idea what that does yet). I get a new ability called Power Smack and a cool fancy helmet costume!

The first memory dialogue instantly clues me in to what this is about, also coupled with some side convos from an animal on the farm: This man is a fisherman, so he will introduce us to the mechanic of fishing when all is done. There is also something about flowers in this game too so I imagine that will go the same way. In any case, we go to the first floor and uh...yep. THat's a hallway. With 7 flans. It instantly becomes clear that I am not supposed to do this yet as the level limit was 12, and these flans hit hard. With no items to recover from, I have suffered my first KO of the game. Whoops! After being ejected, we walk around town some more and one lady gives the priest the business to me, saying he's a coward and its no wonder he lost the election to the mayor, damn. We talk with the flower lady and yep, another bonus dungeon. An annoying thing I've noticed is that you can't see what the challenge is until you've deposited your stuff in storage and go in the dungeon, so bleh. We go for it and find out this one is a 1HP challenge. EVERYONE, yourself and enemies, are at 1 hp, so positioning will be crucial.

I go inside and instantly goof up and get lucky that an enemy's attack missed, lol me. Later on the floor, I get ahead of myself and get one-shotted, double lol me. I feel like I can do this one though, so I go back in again. We move into position on a sleeping lizard enemy who wakes up, but I'm at range so I should be...oh, he has a ranged attack. Welp. 3rd time's the charm eh? We find a Phoenix Down, which lets us get a revive on the floor we use it on, so that'll be handy if I can use it correctly. Also all the items in here are ??? items with labels like "very/slightly iffy greens" so I'm scared to use anything lol. Oh but would you look at that, the 2nd floor has us find an item called the Scholar's Glasses, an equippable that appraises any ??? items we find! Useful! Except...I find another item and it isn't appraised, and I realize that this is a one-time pickup that immediately appraises all your current held items, and what I said before was not true at all, whoops. Next floor though I do pick up a one time use that I can wait to use called Appraisal Glasses, which works on one item. Maybe I'll hang on to that for later. Then...I run into a lizard in a hallway, so I try to maneuver around the corner but turns out it can just use its breath around corners and I die again. ****. I think I will call it here for the night and come back to this when I play next. I will not be defeated forever!

We resume our quest by delivering the flowers to the church as requested. Here we find a strange mirror whose function is to allow us to enter old dungeons, so that's that. We give the flowers to the priest at the church, who says that Zeke was a fallen hero so yeah, he ded. He says that although Gale says forgetting is good, he is not convinced yet and supports our restoration of the town's memories. He is just about to impart some useful information about "jo-" (I assume jobs) when the Bell of Oblivion strikes once more, leading him to forget the information. The void reappears but this looks a bit different, it's kinda reddish. Sure enough, we are introduced to Special Rules dungeons, which have certain limitations based on which one it is, as well as being no items. We enter this one and discover it's a lv1 challenge with no map and fog (titled "Pitch Black Fear"), so here we go!

We are greeted inside the dungeon by Dungeon Hero X as per usual, and holy crap he gives us actually useful information on how to get shortcuts in the menu to items or abilities! I was just griping about that, thanks, kupo! We are introduced to some really mean traps that disguise themselves as the stairs so that sucks, it's also really hard to see jeez. Luckily we find a fire saddle early on so the damage I'm taking is minimal. After a few floors we already happen upon the boss floor only 5F in, but I guess that makes sense for it being a challenge dungeon with the restrictions. The boss is a giant poison toad and it goes down in 3 chocobo kicks, w00t! Weirdly, the memories at the end are not found by Rafaello. I also forgot to mention that in one of the previous dungeons I found a key item called "Knight's memories" which is relevant because here I find the "White Mage memories" which lo and behold, the restoration scene of the priest (Roche is his name) shows that he is indeed the one who will help us with all our job stuff. In each dungeon there has been a weird pillar of light on the opening floor, turns out that is a crystal that will allow us to change jobs before we start the dungeon, so that's cool! We can change to any job that we have the memories for. I wonder if I should turn into a knight or a white mage for the next one, but I don't yet know what the job points are for.

For me it's federer because he managed his #1 ranking # of weeks record while dealing with a prime Nadal. Djokovic got his after Fed and Nadal were already in decline, and there hasn't really been another all-time great player that Djokovic has had to rival him in his same age group. So to me Federer just has a more impressive resume against SLIGHTLY better competition that Djokovic has had. It's really close though, I definitely don't think it's Nadal just because so much of his domination came on clay, but there's no denying he was a force and all-time great player even off clay, he just ran into a buzzsaw so many times on other surfaces. But Djokovic dominating the past few years has not had the tippest top quality of players like Federer had to contend with imo.

Some initial thoughts on the game:
It's a mystery dungeon game alright, you've got all the standard stuff I outlined plus a neat little job mechanic that I just leveled up for the first time after having gotten several regular levels, but I havne' done anythign with it yet.

The music is nice, I greatly look forward to the rest of the game to see if there are other tunes I can pick out what they are (as I haven't played many FF games but have listened to tons of OSTs). Man with the Machine Gun is Dungeon Hero X's theme so that was cool, and the FF9 map theme Over the Hill is a nice little tune that plays when you're restoring someone's memory, and the title theme has an adorable rendition of the recurring chocobo theme.

There is full voice acting in this game which is something I did not expect for a FF side game, and it's actually not bad! There haven't really been any moments where I was cringing, and though it doesn't blow me away it's not bad at all.

The dungeons are...sadly less impressive. I've only been in 3 + the tutorial thus far and the tutorial level had more going on than the rest of them. The layouts themselves are fine, it's all randomly generated anyway, but they've all been the same drab color of washed out sepia; on one hand I get it because the theme is memories and typically forms of media use this filter when doing memory scenes, but on the other hand there's NOTHING going on even when the person is different. No treasure hunting stuff for Cid, Freja had a great premise of being a smith so you could've had different tools lying around or something, maybe Mayor Gale could've had some buildings around since he's a mayor of a city, but instead it's just the same design over and over; same walls, same menacing vortex in the background, same everything. The music is great but it's just a bit weird that they went through the effort (and money) to do voice acting but couldn't be bothered to vary up the dungeons even a little bit. Maybe this will change, I don't yet know if maybe there are some dungeons that are actual dungeons and not just people's memories (like the sand tower was).

The gameplay is okay, it's a little less varied than something like PMD because Chocobo is the only controllable character; there's no party (yet?) to vary things up, but MD gameplay has never been super involved. Etrian Odyssey Dungeon is probably the most in depth one I've played. I did unlock another ability with a job level up, a short-range AOE attack called Chocobo Drop. Kick seems to do a bit more damage but it's single target. I haven't yet found any items that you can throw (kick in this game) to attack things at a distance like gravelerocks in PMD. My main complaint is that I haven't yet seen a way to quick-set items or commands. To do an SP move I have to open the menu, select abilities, and select the ability i want to use each time. It's just a bit cumbersome. There's also traps in the dungeons as per usual, along with some floor food and healing circles, but tbh the only time I've come even close to dying was the boss of the most recent dungeon, and that's because I only brought one potion along. HP heals so fast in this game and I haven't really come across a situation with like a monster room or anything. The toughest regular enemy is probably a bomb because it can self-destruct for about 1/3 of your health, but other than that it's been pretty easy.

Overall, it's fine, it's a mystery dungeon game. I am curious to see where the plot goes; also, notably absent thus far are Irma and her chocobo companion, which Cid has brought up to this point. We also saw a menacing looking woman in Black Mage garb at the clock tower, seemingly encouraging the bell to ring and make people forget. We had a mention from Stella and Shirma in an earlier segment about Shirma's missing sister, perhaps this woman is it?

Stella exclaims that it must be Cid, and sure enough we run upstairs to find him writhing in bed, still trying to remember the things he's forgotten, and sure enough that dark void appears over his head which Rafaello promptly flies into. We quickly follow and enter Cid's memories, and are treated to a nice treat: The dungeon theme is Hunter's chance from FF9! The boss theme that we heard in the first dungeon was Force Your Way, so it's clear this game will have lots of varied music from the FF series so that's nice. As a FF9 guy this dungeon makes me very happy. Sadly, as it's only the 2nd dungeon, it only lasts a couple floors longer than Gale's (so like 5 total maybe?) at the end we fight another giant enemy as a boss. We do pick up a leather saddle+2, which is another hallmark of these games is that you can refine your equipment should you so desire, though I haven't yet unlocked the way to do so out of just finding them. We've leveled up a couple of times by now which just seems to increase our health and damage but NOT our SP, so we're stuck on 3 bars it seems. However, this dungeon IS more intriguing because of Cid's memory dialogue between floors, as Gale had. The memories here alludes to something about Memoria being a city that just one day disappeared with no trace, and that Cid's father had traveled to this location to find out what happened and disappeared as well. He also mentions this as the reason he's looking for Timeless Power, as maybe that will help him find out the truth behind Memoria. Substantially more plot than Gale. Anyway, we reach the end and restore his memory, and his resolve sequence shows him putting 2 and 2 together that this is the place his dad went to, and that he wants to find out what happened. However, this may be a subconscious thing, as he wakes up and doesn't seem to try to talk to Stella or Shirma about all of this. I would think "hey, did you guys know this city was actually lost forever" would be pretty big on the agenda, but hey plot sometimes right? He thanks them and Chocobo as he seemed to realize Chocobo was inside his head the whole time.

I also forgot to mention that prior to the previous segment, we are introduced to a fun side character, DUNGEON HERO X. This is a moogle, kupo, who says kupo in a very cute manner. He appears to give us help but then lets slip that he is helping us because he's sure we'll get stuff to rob in the dungeons before quickly walking it back, so we'll see there. During the dungeon he appeared a few times to give us helpful tips, stuff like you can pass time by walking in place to recover HP faster etc.

Anyway, we wake up the next day and find out the town has lost all use of fire, and the townspeople are up Gale's behind asking him to do something. Meanwhile, at the farm, Rafaello has disappeared for some reason despite being a baby, so we run out lookin after him. The animals around town tell us they saw him flying towards the east side of town in the mining zone so we head over that way. All the shops besides storage are closed because there's no fire, and storage has 2 giant black and white chocobos. So I guess other chocobos do exist in this world, but one girl mentions that those are the only ones she's seen, never a normal chocobo like I am. Anyway, we make it over to the mining zone but before advancing the plot we come across Masked Hero X's (claiming to be different than Dungeon hero X) house and there's a machine here that lets us play a fun side game called pop-up battle, a card game that has common FF figures rendered as adorable paper cut-outs. This was apparently an online capable battle thing, but sadly I'm stuck playing against the AI. I play one game against mog and promptly lose at the very end because he has rarer and better cards than I do, but it's charming and easy enough to understand. There's also a couple other side games that I pass on because they require a wiimote which I am not using for...reasons.

Anyway, we make it to a girl's shop that appears to be a blacksmith, she introduces herself as Freja. She starts to talk to us about the fire being gone meaning she can't smith, when the bell rings again, causing her to forget and decide that she'll just take the rest of the day off instead of whatever her job was supposed to be (Which funnily enough she'd have to do anyway with no fire.) The void appears over her head and out comes Rafaello from nowhere to enter the void. We promptly follow into Freja's memories, our next dungeon.

Here we are treated to a new mechanic: ? items. As Hero X explains to us, these items are unknown what they do unless either equipped or appraised in town (which we can't do yet.) Some of these allegedly have negative effects. Most of the items we find in this dungeon are "Fire" talons/saddles which are better than our leather stuff, so I foolhardedly equip every one I find to find out its effects and realize...I have no idea what any of these symbols mean. Most of the equipment to this point has like 2 notches next to it with a hammer which I assume is some sort of upgrade slot, and a couple of the fire items have a rainbow colored circle with a symbol inside them as well. No idea on this yet either. Anyway, Freja's memories much like Cid are somewhat interesting, Freja's dive into an apparent conflict that happened in the town's past that necessitated a lot of people dying, likely a great battle of some sort. We are told of a man named Zeke who sounds to have died either during the battle or in a later conflict, based on the sound of things. This battle was apparently the catalyst for Freja becoming a blacksmith, and Zeke's death was something she apparently took very hard, claiming it was her fault because the weapons she made weren't good enough. We make it to the end of the dungeon and restore her memories, and she finds her resolve to resume her blacksmith duties.

Conveniently, beating this dungeon restores fire to the town, and we are introduced to the smithing mechanic which is how we add +x to our equipment. I haven't tried it yet but it appears to just be a gil cost. There are also upgrade/downgrade abilities attached to some items, which I assume is those rainbow symbols from earlier, no idea yet on how to read them though. The manual on the desk explains the different effects but I don't know how to actually tell what I have yet. Anyway, Freja asks us before we leave to take some flowers over to the church, which iirc isn't explicitly said but the item description says they're for Zeke. Perhaps he was Freja's brother? Anyway, that is where we leave off, for now.

I'm bored right now and also inspired by andyt's recent FF9 playthrough, so here we go! I've played a few dungeons in so I'll go through those all at once first (since I wasn't going to do a topic until just now), then updates will be as I play through it later. This game is for the Wii, and it is a "Mystery Dungeon" type game, which for those unfamiliar revolves around randomly generated dungeons that are explored in a turn-based system. If you take a step or do an action, enemies do the same, so it's very position-based and allows you to take your time and plan your moves. There are apparently multiple "chocobo's dungeon" games so I don't know if this is all one solid timeline or what.

So our story starts off in a desert, we're in a car with Cid - FF mainstay - and his partner Chocobo (that's me!). Cid explains via monologue that we are treasure hunters traveling the world over in search of something. We're guided by a deep, ominous voice directing us to the "tower in the sands" to find what we seek. We find the tower and enter it, which will serve as our tutorial dungeon!

Inside the tower, we are treated to the basics, which for me having played a crapton of pokemon mystery dungeon, I'm familiar with, so it's mainly learning the controls. You are Chocobo (Yes that is its name, Chocobo. I wish there was an option to rename it!), you have a basic attack and an "Ability" which right now is "Chocobo Kick" which deals bigger damage directly in front of you. You have 3 SP bars, Kick takes 1 bar, you have your health bar, and you have hunger which is another mainstay of mystery dungeon games. If your hunger hits 0%, you start taking constant damage until you either eat or die. There are different food types it seems but we're treated to a chocobo's favorite, Gysahl Greens yum! As you move through a dungeon, your health and SP gradually restore and your hunger gradually decreases. You have to find the staircase to the next floor until you reach the end. Something unique to this game in typical FF fashion is that you have both a level and a "job level," where enemies will sometimes drop job points. No idea what this does yet! We also pick up some rusty talons (our attack equipment) and a rusty saddle (our defense equipment).

Anyway, we reach the end of the dungeon and discover that the treasure Cid is looking for is a jewel named "Timeless Power." We get to the end and find Cid's apparent rival, Irma and her chocobo...I forget its name already. It starts with a Z. Anyway, they smugly rub it in our faces that they got here first much to Cid's annoyance (Suggesting this is not the first time they have clashed like this) and then PLOT happens! A light comes from the ceiling and something appearing to be a portal opens up, sucking all 4 of us in! We're treated to an opening theme tune showing clips throughout the game as Chocobo is sucked into this wormhole in a sequence that feels like it should be an end credits sequence. Chocobo is adorable btw, it's so yellow and fluffy!

Cid and Chocobo are finally spit out on the other side, launching from a fountain high into the air and then hitting the ground in a manner that feels like it should've killed Cid, who landed straight on his head. We are greeted by a man who is obviously very alarmed that he just saw a man and bird fly up from out of a fountain, and we introduce ourselves. This man is Mayor Gale, and he is the mayor of the town of Lostime, set in the area of Memoria (no not THAT Memoria though it's obv an homage). Neither party has heard of where the other is from, but that's fine as Gale seems affable enough and Cid is a pretty basic nice guy.

The main feature of the town of Lostime is its VERY ominous clock tower, and sure enough the bell rings and suddenly, both Gale and Cid come down with a really hard case of amnesia, to the point where Cid doesn't even remember who Chocobo is. This bell is called the Bell of Oblivion, and things get a bit creepy here as the other townspeople gather around Gale and recite this pretty cult-y speech about how forgetting is the key to happiness. We're then interrupted by a young girl dressed in White Mage robes named Shirma, and she seems to be the only sane person in Memoria as she quickly takes us away from the townspeople over to her aunt Stella's farm, away from where the bell can be heard. Gale tries to convince Shirma to live with the townspeople in what seems to be a recurring thing but Shirma wants none of this forgetting business.

At the farm, things are a bit dire as Cid is trying to remember the things he just forgot and is suffering greatly because of it, to the point he loses consciousness. While he's resting on the bed, Stella points out that Shirma's staff is missing, which she realizes she must have left in the town. She rushes off alone to go find it, and our mission becomes running after her to make sure she doesn't get into trouble. We run around the farm a bit and all the animals can apparently talk to us, they serve as various guides about different aspects of the game, most of which I haven't discovered yet, but it's fine. It's also becoming apparent that even though we're in a different world, it can't be TOO far off from our world because people recognize me as a chocobo.

We make it to Lostime and find Shirma, who has found her staff. We turn to leave when Gale approaches us again, and then suddenly a meteorite-looking thing falls from the sky right into the town square right next to us: When the dust settles, we see that it's actually an egg, and this egg soon hatches and contains a...baby? Yes, a baby! This baby somehow not only can talk, but knows Shirma's name, and Gale suddenly remembers that this boy's name is Rafaello. Then the bell rings again, Gale starts forgetting things including his own name, and we're treated to how the main game will progress. A dark void appears over Gale's head, and Rafaello suddenly turns into light and flies into the void, leaving behind a necklace in the shape of a puzzle piece (the game's theme is puzzle pieces, for missing memories I assume) which allows us to enter this void after him. Mission start!

Gale's memories are our first real dungeon, and it goes fine. We pick up leather talons and saddle to upgrade our stats, and we find some potions (restore health) and ethers (restore SP) and get close to our 16 item limit. This is laughably small so I hope there is a way to increase this over the course of the game. After each floor Gale says a couple of things that we have no idea the meaning of but it's clear it's memories of some unknown past event. We get to the end and fight a giant enemy bat as the boss, which for those unfamiliar with MD bosses they are typically just slugfests where you have to outdamage the enemy, as it's one giant room without much room to maneuver like the dungeons are. Anyway, we reach the end and find Rafaello clinging to a puzzle piece - Gale's lost memories. We restore his memory and are treated to a restoration scene which I assume will become the norm, of the character monologuing and regaining their resolve etc. He remembers his name and a couple other things but maintains that forgetting is the key to happiness. We take Rafaello home to the farm with us, where he also seems to know Stella's name. Then, we hear the sound of something breaking upstairs.

Buccaneers vs Hedgehogs
We had a masterful pitching performance by both sides in this one, as this game went scoreless until the 8th. We never even really had an urgent situation, like 2 on no out or man on 3rd 1 out, or anything like that. But alas, in the 8th, Jet Hawk gave up a 2 run homer that would be the decider. The Hedgehogs tried to mount a comeback with a leadoff hit in the 9th, but promptly GIDP and flied out to end the game. Manny Kays pitches 8 shutout innings in a sterling display.

Buccaneers - 2
Hedgehogs - 0

Moonstars vs Platypi
The Moonstars start off in the 2nd inning with a 2 run homer, but the Platypi get a solo shot right back to make it 2-1, from there it was all Moonstars. The 4th saw the score double to 4-2, the stars tacked on another run in the 5th and a bases clearing triple in the 7th. SP Slayer for the Moonstars continues to be their best pitcher, scattering 8 hits across 8 IP with just 2 solo home runs allowed.

Moonstars - 8
Platypi - 2

lol no. Inexcusable to drop under 100 against that team. No one aside from giannis and middleton had double digits, adn after Holiday at 9 the next best had 4.

Giannis just cannot shoot.

Yeah like Leon said, he had a "longer" lifespan but you also have to imagine he was made earlier as a prototype so it all probably evens out.

The funny thing about ark is it's best benefit isn't even the damage, its' the fact that it's summon animation takes SO long that if you have regen on, you can basically get a full heal out of a summon, it's hilarious.

I have never heard of necron being OHKO that way. Pretty sure that's just soulcage as far as bosses go.

Dark Messenger is a tremendous boss theme, as is grand cross. And yeah Necron definitely one of the more infamous bosses in FF if not RPGs as a whole.

The ending is indeed vivi, and the implication that he died, yes. And because this takes place before the ending, the implication is sadly that he did not live long enough to see Zidane return from the Iifa tree.

Yes, so you want like a lv5 and a lv4 person to draw out lv5 death and lv4 holy, which are positively tame compared to stuff like curse and meteor

Edit: I think the difference is that he won't "Target" party members with attacks if they can absorb it. You can be immune to it though. So since doomsday doesn't target it will use it even if your whole party absorbs it I think. Likewise, it will use regular and lv4 Holy if your party member is simply immune but doesn't absorb (but won't use lv4 holy if you don't have a lv4 member in the first place, same for lv5 death). You can also apparently auto-reflect and it will still use things like berserk.

Also yeah the "real" benefit of having the friendly monster quest done is that ozma is now hurt by shadow damage instead of getting healed. The fight sometimes just boils down to "I hope he uses doomsday"

Beewolves vs Orange Army
The longball was the name of this game, as the Beewolves were great outside of allowing 3 solo home runs, which were their undoing, 1 in the 2nd and 2 in the 4th. They got one back of their own in the 7th but it wasn't enough. Tim Spoony-Barger, who has a league low 3 strikeouts through 3 games pitched, pitched a masterful near-complete game in this one.

Beewolves - 1
Orange Army - 3

It's called Vaapad and the premise is that he's basically constantly teetering on the precipice of the light and dark side and is just supremely more focused as a result of the mindset it takes to maintain that balance, and they are a better fighter because of it while still not succumbing to the dark side. It's just a very ferocious technique that you'd expect to be used by dark side users.

Something i didn't knwo reading the wiki, it sounds like Windu during the fight with sidious was so immersed in the style that he basically went Ultra Instinct from dragonball super, his body moved on its own without his mind directing it. And it does mention about how someone who masters this style can use the darkness of the opponent against them.

Also apparently it had a predecessor form called Juyo that was the same concept of extremely ferocious fighting

Bulbasaurs vs X-men
The X-men started off with a 2 run double in the 3rd, and the bulbasaurs looked to be dead in the water until the 6th, when a surprise 3 run homer and a sac fly suddenly had them out in front 4-2. They tacked on another couple runs in the next inning, and while the X-men did threaten over the final couple of innings, they couldn't quite break through.
Bulbasaurs - 6
X-men - 3


Worst relief pitcher Wolverine had a fairly normal outing at least instead of completely disastrous, 2.1 IP with only 1 hit and 2 runs (1 earned).

Star Wars vs Moonstars
The Battle of the Stars was a tale of poor defense from the Moonstars. The game started off innocuous enough, a 2-1 moonstars lead at the end of 4. In the 5th though, with 1 out and runners on 2nd and 3rd, a deep drive to left goes over the head of the outfielder when if he had jumped, the ball would likely have been caught. This turned out to be crucial because even though the runner'd have scored anyway, the next AB was a fly out, and the NEXT AB was a 3 run home run that gave SW a 5-2 lead. If the OF had caugth that ball, there'd have been 2 outs and hte flyout would have ended the inning. SW tacked on a grand slam in the 7th as Slip Sauder was very inaccurate, barely making it out of the 5th due to having long ABs with many balls thrown.

Also, star wars stole their first base of the season lol. They are stronk but they are not fast.

Star Wars - 9
Moonstars - 2
