>>48711138>IrisAnd, I wish there was something more interesting to say here, but this battle was, yet again, another illustration of why Raticate should not be fucking D tier. I honestly should have banned this mon, though maybe that would have made Marshal too ridiculous to get past. Anyway,
Iris decided today was a good day to feed the rats and fed me Hydreigon, Druddigon, Aggron, and Lapras. With Haxorus, I hit it to its Sash expecting a Dragon Dance and the motherFUCKER used Earthquake to just kill, guess Iris finally wised up but that does mean my galaxy destroyer was dead. I had a backup of course, in the form of Shuca Berry Muk, who took the EQ remarkably well before Ice Punching the Haxorus to death. The battle is basically over, but just to play it 100% safe, I sacked Muk to Archeops, sent in Alomomola to Soak + Toxic it, this strat never gets old, and after Defeatist activates just to style on Iris I let Liepard get the kill.
Fun run! Muk, Alomomola and Raticate predictably ended up way too good, like basically-can-solo-every-boss-once-you-get-them good, Boldore and Shuckle should not be anywhere near the same fucking tier as Delcatty or Shelmet too. Perhaps I should have utilized stuff like Castform or Pelipper more to make it feel more appropriately like a shitmon run, but hey.
Might do Renegade Platinum Psychic Mono HC next, like to get back into romhacks.
>>48711052Farfetch'd really is quite the monster, sad to see him die. Hopefully Golbat though not as strong can fill those boots.
I was indeed planning to lead Muk to defeat Hydreigon, but then I realized it's fairly slow, Rat's fairly fast and I have speed EVs...maybe had Iris not been a moron and sent out Haxorus earlier that could have been more interesting.
