>>48388139The next section of the game is irritating to say the least. The plot blocks me off from the rest of the map for a while, including buyable ability capsules and nature mints, so have to be careful with resources.
Also, this is the first time you control another character than the main PC. I won't count them as playing under nuzlocke rules, since other trainers usually don't. Even if I 'kill' my mons while playing as another character they're still going to use them in fights against me.
>MadelisBarely worth mentioning, other than the fact you cannot change your team at the PC for her and the next boss.
>NevedAnd now to start a tradition of what I'm sure will be a string of awful tag battles in this run.
His team - Crabominable, Tentacruel, Manectric, Vikavolt, Aevian Palossand (Ice/Ghost), Barbaracle. His team is entirely above my level cap, but this is 'balanced' by having a partner, Aelita, who is a complete fucking moron. I lead Muzan to bait attacks then swap to Kain, Aelita's Blaziken manages to paralyze Tentacruel so we take down his two leads at once. This brings in Manectric and Barbaracle, I swap Jagi a few times to lower Barb's attack while Aelita is a retard and sends in Flying mons to get killed by Manectric. The Manectric VSwitches out to Palossand, something that fucks my entire team, so I make the risky play and kill it with Genma hoping the Barbaracle attacks Aelita. Sadly, she's killed for her efforts.
I eventually do manage to whittle down Barb's attack enough so my normal mons can start hammering into Neved's other half relatively safely, Abraham killing Vikavolt and baiting Manectric allowing Aelita to finish it off. Then we double team Barb.
>Madame XThis, along with another fight before Madelis that actually starts this plot sequence, are unwinnable without a weird gimmick team or very specific mons. I'm not counting deaths in either of these battles.
