Current Events > BACK TO BACK TO BACK BOSS FIGHT??? (Pokemon Legends Arceus spoilers)

(+) Yeah! (+)

Has Pokemon ever done anything like this? Where you don't get a chance to heal in-between fights? I can handle it, this isn't anywhere near Ultra Necrozma, but damn did I have to scramble to heal everyone up!

Green/Red/Blue/Yellow had Lance into the champion right away IIRC

Soon as Cynthias theme played I knew shit was getting real.

If it did, it stopped there. There wasn't a THIRD fight on top of that!

I was so happy to play a pokemon game that was actually fucking challenging for once. I didn't mind blacking out to that fight at all.

"You finally beat Giratina!"

What a victory quote!

I'm actually tired about hearing about how this boss fight is so "hard". Only one or two of my Pokemon fainted most across the entire fight. It's not that bad unless you go in completely unprepared with no pretty high level, grit level trained Pokemon and no good healing items, but considering this happens during post game you should easily have access to both. The only thing that really makes this fight hard is that in PLA when one of your Pokemon faints a trainer's Pokemon and they have multiple they'll send the next one in and it essentially gets a free retaliatory turn on your Pokemon before you can act, which could end up revenge fainting your current Pokemon or leaving them considerably weakened. That's part of PLA's atrocious balance among numerous questionable decisions which keep it from being nearly as good traditional Pokemon games.

Not once did I call it hard.

I beat the fight on my first try but it cost me a lot of max revives.

Apparently cresselia can solo the whole thing without gaining even a single level after you catch them but I never tried.
