Calwings 12/26/21 4:33:02 PM #60:	All right, I think I'm ready now. I grew some berries and used them to remove some EV's from Kricketune's SpAtk and SpDef to move them to Speed. I also stocked up on X-items in case I need them, did a little bit of extra training in Victory Road to get Kricketune from level 66 to 69 (nice), and taught it Aerial Ace to deal with my rival's Heracross and Aaron's entire team before switching back to X-Scissor for the rest of the Elite Four. I also have one more trick up my sleeve: For this rival battle, Kricketune is holding a Wiki Berry. If/when my rival's lead Staraptor uses Pluck, it'll eat the berry and (because it has a nature that hates the flavor of this berry) it'll be confused. Hopefully it'll hit itself in confusion a couple of times, giving me a few extra turns to boost Kricketune up with Swords Dance or X-Items. In a little bit, I'll start the rival battle and (hopefully) my attempt at the Elite Four. Wish me luck. --- ''Someday I too will fly... and find you again!'' https://i.imgur.com/PfJxO7u.gif <cite>Calwings posted [p:961231726] in I'm doing ...

Calwings 12/26/21 5:34:25 PM #61:	The Wiki Berry strategy worked to get past Staraptor, and Kricketune beat it at +3 Attack (+4 from a couple of Swords Dances and -1 from Intimidate) and about half HP left. Kricketune then outsped and OHKO'd Heracross, Rapidash, and Snorlax. The rival's Floatzel got off a Crunch attack that did (what I thought was) minimal damage before getting OHKO'd, but then Torterra came out, barely survived a +3 Aerial Ace, and finished off Kricketune with a not very effective Wood Hammer. I made a second attempt that went identical to the first, except I used a Max Potion to heal Kricketune once Torterra came out. Kricketune survived the Wood Hammer, and the recoil damage Torterra suffered was just enough for Aerial Ace to now OHKO it. Now on to Aaron, the first of the Elite Four. --- ''Someday I too will fly... and find you again!'' https://i.imgur.com/PfJxO7u.gif <cite>Calwings posted [p:961233153] in I'm doing ...

Calwings 12/26/21 6:28:14 PM #63:	Just like with my rival, the first few attempts at beating Aaron failed. After setting up two Swords Dances and then KO'ing Dustox, his Heracross came out, outsped Kricketune, and flinched it with Rock Slide before KOing it with a second Guts-boosted Rock Slide. In my second attempt, Heracross didn't get the flinch and Kricketune OHKO'd it, but then Drapion came in, also outsped Kricketune, and KO'd it with Cross Poison. Then in my third attempt, Kricketune survived the Cross Poison due to "the power of friendship" (AKA affection bonuses) but then it couldn't OHKO Drapion and died to a second Cross Poison. After these three failed attempts, I decided to just resort to X-items because I couldn't think of another way to win this battle. In my fourth attempt, I set up an X Speed as well as three Swords Dances while Dustox was out, and from there I outsped and OHKO'd Aaron's entire team. On to Bertha and her bulky Ground and Rock types. Spidey5 posted... I enjoy reading these 5D chess pokemon strats Unfortunately, it looks like I'm at the point in the game where the only viable "strategies" that I have available to me are to either spend several days grinding Kricketune 15-20 levels higher or pump Kricketune full of the Pokemon equivalent of steroids. --- ''Someday I too will fly... and find you again!'' https://i.imgur.com/PfJxO7u.gif <cite>Calwings posted [p:961234343] in I'm doing ...

Calwings 12/26/21 6:57:38 PM #65:	I tried without X-items for my first attempt against Bertha, setting up two Swords Dances and OHKOing Quagsire and Sudowoodo. The problem this time was that her Golem has the Sturdy ability (meaning it can't be OHKO'd no matter what) and does massive damage with a super effective Stone Edge. Kricketune made it to Golem with barely any damage taken (Quagsire only used Surf once and that's it) and still died to Stone Edge. Instead of trying over and over again praying for the 20% chance for Stone Edge to miss, I decided to use two X Defends while setting up on Quagsire to raise Kricketune's Defense so it would survive the Stone Edge. It worked, Kricketune took out Golem, and the rest of the battle was easy. Next is Flynt, and he could be a big problem. I'll be trying to set up against a Rapidash with a super effective Fire-type move and a chance to put Kricketune to sleep with Hypnosis, and I know for sure that his Infernape will outspeed Kricketune and do huge damage. So I'm just going to use X items from the get-go this time instead of trying to win without them first, because I know I'll need them. 3PiesAndAFork posted... Are you saving between them?

Calwings 12/26/21 7:19:20 PM #66:	Setting up on Flynt's Rapidash was a massive pain in the ass because it kept putting Kricketune to sleep. But eventually, I was able to set up two X Defends, an X Speed, and two Swords Dances, and then Kricketune swept the rest of his team... until his Infernape survived with a Focus Sash and got a critical hit with Fire Punch, which ignores the defense boosts from the X Defends and easily KO'd Kricketune. I had that battle won and then some bad luck screwed me over. Oh well. I'm taking a break to go eat dinner and do some other stuff, so I'll come back either later tonight or tomorrow and try again. --- ''Someday I too will fly... and find you again!'' https://i.imgur.com/PfJxO7u.gif <cite>Calwings posted [p:961235563] in I'm doing ...

Calwings 12/26/21 9:44:26 PM #67:	I beat Flynt and Lucian. Not much to say about the Flynt battle because it went the exact same as the first attempt except Infernape didn't crit. With Lucian, I used the same setup as with Flynt except I raised Kricketune's SpDef with X-items instead of its Defense, and it was a first try victory. Kricketune is now level 72 heading into the final battle against Cynthia, and I'm now just one win away from completing this playthrough. --- ''Someday I too will fly... and find you again!'' https://i.imgur.com/PfJxO7u.gif <cite>Calwings posted [p:961239024] in I'm doing ...

Calwings 12/26/21 10:59:51 PM #70:	pkmnlord posted... Damn, you're just gonna skip over the Cynthia fight synopsis? There wasn't really much to it. It was the same "beef up with Swords Dance and X-items against the lead and then sweep" strategy as all the others in this final stretch. Aside from the rival's Staraptor, all of them had leads that I could easily set up on because they couldn't really do much damage back. If Flynt's Rapidash had a more powerful fire-type move than Flame Charge, it could have been a problem, but it didn't. I went through as much of the game as I possibly could without using X-items, but once I needed them, I used them. Did it make the final battles of the run boring? Yeah, kind of. But is it better than wasting days of my life overleveling Kricketune or resetting hundreds of times until Arceus finally blesses me with the astronomically unlikely RNG that I would have needed to win at Kricketune's current level? Of course it is. --- ''Someday I too will fly... and find you again!'' https://i.imgur.com/PfJxO7u.gif <cite>Calwings posted [p:961240701] in I'm doing ...

Kiyune 12/28/21 3:56:51 PM #78:	Calwings posted... The first battle at the top of Spear Pillar is a mandatory double battle with you against two Galactic Grunts, and as far as I can tell, you can't talk to them separately to face them one at a time like you can in other situations where you'd face two trainers in a double battle. You absolutely *must* face them in a double battle, you absolutely *must* have a second non-fainted, non-egg Pokemon in your party to initiate this battle and progress the game, and you absolutely *must* send that second Pokemon out in that battle. So essentially, a true "solo" run where you only use one single Pokemon for the entire game is completely *impossible* in BD/SP because of this specific battle.

What ApherosyLove posted... https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/6/2/9/AAZuMeAACG61.jpg https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Affection It was introduced in X/Y, but in those games and most games since, it would cap out before you got any in-battle benefits unless you went out of your way to do something special (Pokemon-Amie in gen 6, Pokemon Refresh in gen 7, can't remember what it was in Sword/Shield) to raise it further. Unfortunately, in BD/SP (and apparently the Let's Go games but I didn't play those) they decided to merge it into the normal friendship stat and remove the cap, so you get those extra in-battle benefits whether you want them or not. It's really stupid, and I (plus a lot of other people) just wish it was optional like in the past games. --- ''Someday I too will fly... and find you again!'' https://i.imgur.com/PfJxO7u.gif <cite>Calwings posted [p:961290102] in I'm doing ...

ApherosyLove 12/28/21 8:12:12 PM #84:	At affection level 3 and higher, a Pokmon may endure attacks that could otherwise make it faint and survive with 1 HP (including confusion damage). This effect initially has a 10% chance to happen per hit, and can potentially happen for multiple hits. This chance increases to 15% at level 4, 20% with an affection stat of at least 200 (roughly halfway between level 4 and level 5), *and finally 25% at level 5.* *Bonkers.* --- *I, Apherosy, Goddess of Love.* https://i.imgur.com/erQyTk5.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/73ExkyN.jpeg <cite>ApherosyLove posted [p:961290513] in I'm doing ...

pkmnlord 12/29/21 1:07:42 AM #85:	The only affection bonus I hate is getting a critical hit, because sure it's nice when it's during a tough battle, but more often than not it happens when I'm just trying to weaken a wild pokemon and I just end up OHKO'ing it. But sure I'll take free attack dodges and immediate dismissal of status ailments so I don't have to waste a turn using a recovery item. --- http://i.imgur.com/MP7ZznH.jpg <cite>pkmnlord posted [p:961296319] in I'm doing ...

pkmnlord 12/31/21 10:37:37 AM #88:	Oh yeah, what I hate is the extra unneccessary text boxes in battle for "-insert pokemon here- is awaiting your directions" or "you're breathing in time with each other!" or "-pokemon- looked back at you and nodded! You make it feel assured!" before you get presented with the battle UI. I know you can speed up the text in the options, but I'd rather just remove the text altogether lol. Maybe this is how they subtly preserved the original "slowness" of D/P lol --- http://i.imgur.com/MP7ZznH.jpg <cite>pkmnlord posted [p:961354647] in I'm doing ...
