TopicWhat are your thoughts on the Pokemon attack "Freeze Dry"
Scintillant
02/19/24 1:10:42 AM
#1
For those who don't know, Freeze-Dry is a special attack introduced in Generation VI. It's an ice-type attack with a base power of 70, accuracy of 100, and pp of 20. Freeze-Dry deals damage and has a 10% chance of freezing the target. Unlike other Ice-type moves, it deals super-effective damage to Water-type Pokmon, even during Inverse Battles or if the user has the Normalize Ability. (Info copy and pasted from Bulbapedia https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Freeze-Dry_(move) )

I think it's a great attack that I wish opened the door to a lot more appropriate interactions. One idea I had many years ago was for a poison type attack called "Corrosion" that dealt super effective damage towards steel types. It is the name of an ability for Salazzle where it could poison steel types.

Overall I think the attack is really cool and I'm glad it is in the game. It having a lower BP than other ice type attacks kind of balances out its very powerful side effect. I wish there were others like it that don't necessarily target resistances but are still thematic. Like Scorched Earth = super effective against ground types (Fire type attack)

Hey.

Probably Heartstopper. Stuff that's happy and fun is preferred. Which kinda goes for media in general (I'm a sucker for a happy ending, it's fine if it gets dark or dramatic en route to the happy ending).
I love heartstopper for that exact reason, it's just so cute !

honestly if you can financially support yourself you should be okay, but i've noticed with a lot of parents (like mine, whom i have not told i like the schmeat) they're in the "as long as it's not my kid" camp

Thanks!

Since there's no real bonuses for progressions of social links does it really matter which ones I prioritize? I feel like I just opened up 7-8 of them really quick.

Is it like P5R where there's a lot of wiggle room to get everything done or is optimization required?

TopicI unironically believe that 1 billion lions would beat one of each Pokemon

NoxObscuras posted...
This argument again? The only way lions win is if you handicap Pokemon by applying the video game logic to them while ignoring the Pokedex entries from the video games. But in the show, they don't have a cap of 4 moves, and there's zero mention of PP or the struggle attack (because that's all in the name of video game balance). So Pokemon would obliterate the lions.
The games themselves ignore the Pokedex entries.

nothing in Pokemon's canon suggest that Pokemon are as strong as the Pokedex entries claim (that are written by 10 year olds btw)

common example that makes no fucking sense:

Magcargo, 18,000 degree body is 2x the temperature of the sun. And yet the pokemon world isn't completely obliterated. Interesting.

"b-b-b--b-b-b-b-bb--but what about Ghost types?" nothing. If Lions are a normal type, then who cares? Bite is a dark type move that is super effective against Ghosts. I personally believe that because Lions are not Pokemon, they would be typeless, which would inflict neutral damage on everything (as seen in the Pokemon attack struggle), but even if they aren't, there's no reason why biting wouldn't work.

All the "GODS" of Pokemon are thwarted, again, by 10 year olds. And nothing these "GODS" do are unbeatable. Even in the Pokemon canon an Arceus can get beaten by a Rattata.

People vastly overhype the abilities of Pokemon for absolutely no reason.

You can try breaking large tasks into smaller tasks with individual deadlines.
It can help too to figure out what time of the day you're most productive and schedule time to work on things then.
You can recruit someone to hold you accountable, like ask them on a particular day to ask you if you did the thing you had resolved to do. Knowing they're going to ask can help motivate you.
If you keep avoiding a thing it's also sometimes worth asking if it's something you really want to accomplish or just something you've been made to feel you "should" do. Is it something you really need to do in order to reach the goals you want to reach?
thank you for this answer
