i would super train it but i don't really feel a need to play this game anymore ... i always kind of lose interest after doing the postgame stuff and i think catching mewtwo is about all there is in this one

will probably do some of the battle tower or whatever it's called tomorrow but that'll be it

ok game freak MUST have fucked with the capture rate because i just caught him with my first ball thrown, a dusk ball ... now i don't have anything left for my master ball lol

I think it took me a while longer than that and I had to retry a few times since I accidentally knocked him out, but it was still quick. Still, legendaries are A LOT easier to catch these days mostly as a result of story reasons.

As far as I know you only get one and it's based on your starter. I was hunting after Articuno earlier today since they're roaming again.

Yeah and this time you don't even get to battle them when you come across them. Immediately runs. I think you have to find it a bunch of times before it'll go land somewhere to fight it as normal.

Pretty sure the only time I've come close to completing the Pokedex was back in RBY. Might have fully completed it but I doubt it.

No, you enter the battle screen and it immediately runs off. None of the standard UI comes up at all.

i actually got 151 in yellow, wasn't too bad because 151 isn't really that many lol

when you're a kid though i guess it feels like it is

i thought silver had just the perfect number to still be doable without being ridiculous

meh i'm resetting ... not happy with a jolly mewtwo lol

Prime Hunter

Yeah it's impossible for the average player to come close these days. It'd take a lot of dedication and time to even make a dent in it. Well, other than building up over the course of several games and stockpiling everything for years on end, but I guess that's basically what I just said.

lol @ fighting mewtwo with aegislash ... it can't do shit to me, i think its only attack is aura sphere

Psychic as well, which does next to nothing as long as you're in the defensive stance. Used mine against him too.

oh damn nvm it has psychic

Prime Hunter

2013-10-20 05:27:05 am

Course my team was in the early 70s when I fought him so that helps.

lol and of course now it's taking me forever to catch him

keep accidentally knocking him out

Speaking of Mewtwo, his days of being the broken god of Pokemon may be upon us yet again. From what I can tell after looking at a few of them each Mega adds 100 points to their respective Pokemon's base stats, meaning Mewtwo goes skyrocketing up to a monstrous 780 total when they're in play. 190 Attack / 130 Speed (X Form) and 194 Special Attack / 140 Speed (Y Form) are insane no matter how you look at it.

So did everyone just stop playing at the same time or something? I know a few of us had gotten to the post game already. Are we still thinking of doing a tournament/battles against each other at some point in the future?
