Glacius Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Good evening ladies and gentlemen, I figured it's time to say hi after posting for a while. What should i say about me... I'm Glacius (IGN Glacius). I stumbled over PokeMMO as i was on a frustrating search for a good MMO to play. I play since november (damn i wish i was there in august ) I play every once in a while, when i feel like it or when theres something new. (still working on my compeditive team, but farming bores me just too much) Im fairly new to compeditive pokemon but i know a fair bit about it by now. I also started making Sprites about a month ago. ([url="https://forums.pokemmo.eu/index.php?/topic/11684-sprites-glacius-pimps-your-pokemon/#entry159761"]Have a look[/url]) I'm just an average killer instinct character. If you wanna get to know me feel free to PM. Patrick, Immature14YearOld and JPG 3 Link to comment

Immature14YearOld Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 I can't seem to get my colors to fade like yours do, maybe saving in png. Form would help? Link to comment

Only advanced stuff like Photoshop has the option of 'tollerance' for colours.

Hidden numbers ... the best way to see a pokemons true strength is comparing its actual stats (level 30/50/100...the level you gonna use it on). Base stats give you a general idea how good the pokemon is but the relation between the stats change quite a bit with nature/evs/ivs also abilities and moves make a bit difference typing(stab,resistance,effectiveness)...and much more... theres alot to consider indeed. I like the way it is ballanced. Example: if you compare a water type with a grass type, you see the water type has way better resistances and usually has a greater movepool. So having a watertype is a much better idea in general. but because of that its a good idea to have a silly low resistance bad movepool grasstype to counter that powerful watertype. and you cant really compare single pokemon, you have to compare teams. I like it. Ofc theres ways around having a grasstype to counter watertypes. thats probably smarter in most cases. I just like that theres so many ways. Also more important that types in my opinion are other moves like sleep, meanlook, toxin... i'd probaply not make a team with a fire/water/grass core. oh yeah the same goes for fire types, they are mainly good for one thing, counter the awesome steel type.

Casssandra Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 well i like it cause of the amount of pokemon in the game, i literally can have a team of my favourite pokemon and get away with it ^^ i used to have a tornament winning team in diamond (before i knew all this stuff of EV's and IV's) which only consisted of a Leafeon, Tyranitar, Salamance, Floatzil, Lucario and a infernape XD but im a new gen girl, i learned the competiveness from gen 4 onwards, so stuff like Pokemon type decides whether the attack is Physical or Special kinda screwed me over a little in this game XD Link to comment

Some pokemon like gyarados would benefit alot from that. it does make sense. actually it must be easier to predict whos physical and special cause you dont really need both stats if you can jsut get your attacks for the higher stat. If i look at the current meta... theres no level 50 pokemon that can learn a bug type attack with decent power... Link to comment

[/quote] Well it kind of always got me a bit wierd that physical was always to me an attack that involved physical contact, and special, were well...special attack witout any contact, so when i see something like fire fang deal special, or flame wheel which the user cloacks itself in fire and charges deal special...always stuck me as wierd, also Dark attacks like bite and crunch, then moves like rockslide being physical oh it flipped me out to much to the point where i was holding my pokemon diamond crying in a corner rocking back and forwards XD Link to comment

[/quote] Well of course it leaves a physical wound on the target, but its not how the target gets hit by it XD an easy way i remember it is, physical is using the pokemons physical strength and special is using something that isnt there own body, for instance flames or a hyper beam XD Link to comment
