Topic | Are Pokemon Scarlett/Violet worth getting? How was the DLC? |
comicfire 05/27/24 11:48:47 PM #21 | Perfect IVs are a complete non-issue to get now since raids hand out Bottle Caps like candy to max them out, so the only issue is getting mons that like having spreads with 0 Atk/Speed IVs. Getting a full competitive team EV'd/IV'd up is really quick with that, vitamins no longer being capped at 100 EVs and Mirror Herb allowing a mon to get Egg Moves whenever.
Depending on the exploring you'd want to do, I'd say the story is anywhere from 20-30 hours, Teal Mask adding another 5-7 and Indigo Disk adding another 10-12 unless you're bringing in powerful mons to steamroll them. --- She/They, no substitutions~ |
Topic | it's a shame gamefreak never gives snorlax any love |
comicfire 05/27/24 11:46:19 PM #12 | Part of it is that mono-Normal just isn't what it used to be. Was a killer type early on when Fighting mons generally sucked, but it's a hard sell in a meta where Zamazenta and Great Tusk are everywhere.
Dondozo is built really similarly to it and has remained in OU since launch, so maybe a regional variant/Mega/Paradox with a better typing alone could rocket it back up --- She/They, no substitutions~ |
Topic | Are Pokemon Scarlett/Violet worth getting? How was the DLC? |
comicfire 05/27/24 11:42:14 PM #12 | Been playing the series since '99, SV+Expansion Pass are far and away my favorites in the series.
Actual good story, though stumbles a bit at the end of Indigo Disk, fun movement options with Koraidon/Miraidon making the region a joy to explore. Glitches have always been overblown, since I've put over 500 hours in and had a single clipping issue that resolved itself almost immediately. Healthy amount of new Pokemon that are mostly all winners outside of Flamigo being the single worst design in the series. Performance absolutely does take a major hit in a few areas. Casseroya Lake, Tagtree Thicket and parts of Savannah Biome unfortunately run like shit, especially if a weather effect kicks in. Easiest games to shiny hunt in as well, with Level 3 Shiny Sandwiches just about guaranteeing one will pop in the half hour if you're quick to despawn the non-shiny ones. Tera Raids are hit or miss. Definitely prefer them to Max Raids, but 7 Star Event Raids are a bit of a pain solo and a massive pain online if the other players aren't following meta strategies.
