So can we start a pool on how many viewers we will have during the final battle?

I predict 130k

final battle? we're not getting there

Also let's get this clear, evasion moves are bad and a waste of a slot. Barely anyone would use them if they WERE legal. The metagame is way too fast for you to use it more than twice before you get dusted.

Evasion moves are allowed in ubers. They are banned for power reasons.

Also, calling Minimize (+2 evasion) bad is crazy. That sort of boost wins games with Moody.

 

[Bedameister]

ok whats the next goal?

 

[twothunder]

It's a Seismic Toss/Night Shade style damaging move with fluctuating damage above and below those two. That's always nice to have, even if it's not as good as Psychic.

Just looked it up.

"Psywave inflicts a random amount of damage, varying between 0.5× and 1.5× the user's level. The damage can be calculated using the following formula, where X is a randomly generated number between 0 and 10:

(X + 5) × (User's level / 10)

The damage is always rounded down; however, Psywave will always deal at least 1 HP of damage. Though it is a Psychic move, Psywave deals typeless damage, taking neither weakness nor resistance into account, and not being affected by STAB"

Guess it's better than pound ,but far from great. Not even STAB for Drowzee.

Revive the old god, ??? profit?

 

[astrogamer]

You know who'd come in handy right now?

Spoiler

dig bro

Don't think that works in gyms. I could be wrong since I haven't played Red/Blue recently

 

[everyday math]

Use masterball.

Fat Camp kills me.

 

[DaBoss]

Current goal (heal first and then this):

 

[BassForever]

Why do we want snorlax exactly?

 

[Trey]

Fuck snorlax, go for the Zapdos. If they toss the masterball in the process, oh well. Snorlax will need exp that's more effective going to gastly or Air.

 

[Scarecrow]

So, they made the right choice and are aiming for Snorlax?

 

[Pineconn]

Helix praise LCS.

 

[RedShift]

Why do we want snorlax exactly?

High hp, high attack, can learn Surf (we don't need another surfer for overworld use but it's still a damn good move. And it makes it easier to use surf when we do need it).

 

[jnWake]

Zapdos would be much more hype.

 

[monocromo]

I love how when all was said and done we ended up with Lapras.

But you cant deny all the Eevee drama added a lot to this stream.

 

[BY2K]

They aren't going to Cinabar by the Seafoams, right? It's all water, which means pokemon encounters all the way.

 

[leatherhat]

Wide movepool + a guy who can tank a lot of hits plus deal some nice damage is perfect fit for the mobs unique...uh... fighting style.

But was it worth loosing Abby and Jay Leno? :-(

I just tried watching one of those LoL streams.

It's like they're speaking a different language.

This is the reason why I love the internet. Thank you.

 

[Zetta]

Hmmm we should go for Zapdos.

 

[Axass]

Let's all thank together Bird Jesus for wiping the floor with Alakazam!

Id say yes.

I like to see the PC as a chaos point in the map. Its the only place when you can really lose something in Pokemon. When Red gets close to it things become interesting all of sudden. The tension is way to high

 

[leatherhat]

What are the levels of the party right now?

Zapdos is fucking awesome, but we're going to toss the Master Ball trying to Surf to the Power Plant.

From the subreddit:

wow just perfect

 

[RedShift]

They aren't going to Cinabar by the Seafoams, right? It's all water, which means pokemon encounters all the way.

Most common plan seems to be to go Vermillion - Diglett Cave - Viridian - Pallet then surf to Cinnabar. Makes the most sense, the strength puzzles in Seafoam will be killer.

 

[Dion Blaster]

I think we should try to get Snorlax, and if that fails go for the Zapdos Hail Mary.

 

[kahboomkin]

No not the PC!

 

[Professor Lich]

Any idea who they are trying to deposit?

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

LOL alright, minimize plus Moody is good. But that tells you how little you should depend on evasion when the only relevant option is +4 evasion per turn. And even then you're screwed if any pokemon has an always hitting move ala Aerial Ace unless you've been setting up with a second boosting move, in which case you only have 2 slots for atacking moves.

 

[Fury Sense]

I still don't trust ATV

 

[Blizzard]

Any idea who they are trying to deposit?

Trolls -- notice the chat spam of trying to release everyone/release pidgeot/release lapras/get digrat/deposit for zapdos...even though digrat is obviously not needed, and zapdos is obviously impossible because the master ball will get wasted on random encounters first.

Any time people get near the PC, there's basically spam to release the only good pokemon or time-consuming-to-train pokemon the team has.

 

[ffdgh]

Twitch, stop playing with the death box.

 

[nillapuddin]

- reads gaf, gets caught up-

- turn on the stream -

- stream loads -

THE FUCK ARE WE DOING AT THE PC!

 

[ratcliffja]

No not the PC!

Won't they need to deposit something before catching a legendary or risk losing the legendary?

 

[everyday math]

Guys we'll to go to a PC either way.

 

[Shizzlee]

Every time I hear the PC my heart sinks.

 

[Master Milk]

the pc would probably be fine with a little democracy

 

[harmonize]

Guys we'll to go to a PC either way.

And this way would require one less action we could potentially screw up with a release. Depositing something versus depositing something then withdrawing Snorlax.

 

[Kirlia]

I've been wanting to know this for a while: if a Pokemon has been taught an HM (at least in the earlier generations of 1 and 2), isn't it impossible to release it, at least if it's the only one to know a certain HM? Because under that rule, Lapras cannot be released even if they tried.

 

[ampere]

I voted that we use the Master Ball on Articuno, though I admit it'd be almost impossible to get to him with anarchy.

Zapdos would be fine too, I just hope it doesn't get tossed.

I see that Air learned Surf and Strength, but his first move is now Sing! Haha that sucks.

Nope in Gen 1 you can still release them.

 

[Trey]

the battle of fates that ensues every time Red walks near a PC is hilarious.
