/vp/ - Pokémon » Thread #46044511

I'm the anon from the last thread doing Desecrated Gold Sacred Gold with extra suffering

>no starter/handout pokemon
>must bring pokemon the same levels as the gymleader (Falkner has 12/12/12/14/14/15, I get the same)
>no in battle items
>set battle mode
>normal nuzlocke with duplicate clause

I know I am going a little hard and have gone full tism, but I don't want to let up because this feels like a real challenge. I'll life and die by this suffering.

VBA is over 15 years old and does NOT support multi-threaded CPUS!
mGBA runs MUCH faster on ANY computer with more than 1 core (read: EVERY fucking computer since 2008!)
melonDS is PROVEN faster and more stable than DesPoope (which also hasn't been updated SINCE 2015!!!!!)

And yet every board, every thread, people still do it. And it's not like not replying to them won't work. I've seen it work because a small, niche community collectively silently agreed to stop giving them attention, and while it took 3 weeks, eventually they fucked off and left. It's impressive how almost no thread to understand how to just do that.

Wait a second why did the entire emulator and not just the image blur on the left?And Desmume was updated 16 hours ago while MelonDS dev only appeared after a month of silence to ask for project donations.AND VBA has a more recent fork VBA-M which works fine and in cases where a few games act up mGBA works perfectly.

THIS FAGGOT is purosefully trying to keep feature full emultaors like melonDS AWAY from the community (he is very likely working for Nintendont)
The entire reason WHY developemnt shifted to melonDS away from DesPoope is because the deve REFUSED to add wifi support because Nintendont was concerned about their ability to connect to the GCS or whatver. DesPoopEe is LITERALLY Nintendo shills and advertising their PURPOSEFULLY SHITTY & OUTDATED emulator is a slap in the face of the people who ACTUALLY play these games.

I've noticed a very distinct quirk about this randomizer. See, there are a few trainers scattered about with fully evolved Pokemon, and because of that, the randomizer picks any fucking fully evolved Pokemon it can. Thus there have been some scary moments. These two Beauties made a hilariously tough synergy to break, with a Dugtrio that spams Magnitude and a Weezing with Levitate and Assurance.

Some other highlights include that one Firebreather before the Park having a fucking Abomasnow, and another is the Pokefan in the Park who USUALLY has a Raichu instead having a Drapion. I think I'm unknowingly giving myself the XY treatment, where the bosses are weak as shit and the regular trainers are the real threats.

What the fuck is happening.

So, I went into Morty's Gym more after the first trainer (kinda cheap, but i take the first trainer into account to see the type specialty) and surprise surprise, the next Medium had two Sableye and THIS one has a fucking Piloswine that deleted Geodude with a Mud Bomb. I could theoretically get another one but fuck man, this is some weird shit.

I can only assume the randomizer can't handle the fact that Morty's Gym literally uses a single Pokemon line or something?

>>46045046
Oh yeah, it's terrifying to say the least, but I live for this kind of surprise!
>>46045170
Oh dear fucking god, those aces, I know who you're talking about I think. The Magmar and Electabuzz, right? And yeah, the earlier pic was the Beauties.

Also, what's that? That actually looks really fucking cool, are you just straight up customizing a run entirely?

I've always seen it as the player's responsibility to hatch the egg in the place that they got it if they choose to take an egg, to avoid the risk of hatching it somewhere you have not yet, or have already gotten an encounter. If you get an egg, you have to immediately commit to that egg. Tedium for a freebie.

I'm starting to see a trend here. At least Gardenia was super easy otherwise. I'm not sure what will be the best approach when it comes to Skuntank. I'll go get my Old Chateau encounter first, grind a little and proceed from there.

One more question: how does nuzlocke deal with Mt. Coronet? Do you only get one encounter for all the different caves, or can you break it up into like the four route entrances for example? Since I'm on my first nuzlocke, I kinda want to go babby mode.

I was thinking of pulling off the same Stun Spore + Confuse Ray trick I did on Roserade against it. It worked alright until the crit happened. Also the Gastly is probably going to be key in Fantina's gym for me. Speaking of which, I might actually grab the Eevee in Hearthome. If I come out of the next few big battles really fucked then I'll pick it up.

Yeah that is the plan. I'm going to fake out the Braviary cause I think it's the biggest threat. And thanks to Rock Slide on Snorlax, I should be able to always hit someone even if one protects.
I've just always been terrified of multi battles cause they are so many factors to consider.

Togekiss has one of the best movepools in the entire game, has a 50% chance to get a fantastic ability and moves to support it, has pretty decent stats, and matches admirably against the Elite 4.
That's well worth putting effort into, but if you still don't want to thats understandable I guess

Double/triple battles can be manipulated - going in with a plan like you seem to have makes them very manageable. You should have this.

Platinum is a real bitch. The champion fight is probably the hardest in the series I think, and you kinda have to have a strategy going into it.
A big problem with plat as well is that once you get to a certain point in the game the good encounters are very limited, kinda like Hoenn.

I think you'd wipe to Drake.
Nothing on your team can take both an earthquake and multiple dragon claws/crunches and kill salamence back.
If you get your sharpedo up a few levels he will outspeed and you'll be good. Its up to you to look up the speed stat of his salamence or chance it....but looking at those base stats you're gonna have to be higher than 50, I know by experience.
You should be totally fine against the first three with your 3 ice resists, strong fighting type and dark type. Wallace could be a threat also because he packs a lot of ice coverage and you don't even have a real water resist. Sharpedo is too frail to count. I think gyarados would fuck you up also. Level up some more, maybe 53-55 before you go in.
I know its fucking painful, but if you go in with this you're gonna wipe.

It's an absolute chore getting Elley and Monday leveled up in particular, having to run from every golbat as one and having to run from everything that isn't goldbat as the other or risk long tedious walks to get healed then come back.
I also usually don't look up stats, or even teams for that matter, for my level limit I just take a quick glance to find out what the ace's level is and then leave.

New year, new laptop, new nuzlocke! I fucked around with a randomizer to enable trade mons and use the DP starters, I also randomized offered trade mons but I doubt it'll come into play.

Detective Nate un-retires when he receives a call about a missing Purrloin, and apprehends a mob goon in the backwater town of Floccessy. The conspiracy goes deeper than we thought, but the detective knows the big city (and its characters) better than anyone. The new teacher at the Trainer School might have something to say about it.

On to Hearthome it is, and I'll be picking up the Eevee from Bebe. Maybe evolving it into a Leafeon since I've never used one in a playthrough. Also the Gastly I was going to catch in the chateau killed itself with curse, so I really am lacking some team members right now.

I tend to just see it as a free zone to catch specifically one Pokemon I want, so I can have as many encounters as I like but I can only leave with a single Pokemon. A little cheap, but eh.

after doing a bit of grinding for game corner tms, decided to head on my way.
final maxie battle was a joke, just spammed surf with jump and steven's metang helped clean up.
final archie battle was also a joke, spotify tore apart his team
juan was actually a bit scary, just realized i had no electric mons and the double teaming resting kingdra is actually kind of a son of a bitch if you don't prep for it, so i went through trick house to get taunt, shut down the luvdisc's bullshit, then sent in planetfit to get some gains before beating his team to death, thankfully without getting confused from water pulse.
hate e4 grinding in this game, but it'll be fine. oh, and i'm still rocking fine without items, chadlockeanon

>>46047021
Same as everything else other anons have said, but with the added caveat that the mon you're trading isn't dead. in-universe it would seem terribly poor taste to give a corpse you have to another trainer
>>46047098
nice team! careful, though, fantina's a pretty nasty gym leader
>>46046997
while i agree with everyone else here, i remember hearing an interesting variation on it: go out and catch as many pokemon as you successfully can in a safari zone run, then pick one of your captures to keep. don't know how i feel about the idea myself but putting it out there for anyone who thinks it does sound kosher

I feel bad for Fooma and Tundur's deaths. Fooma just got fucked over by RNG at the end, and could've killed Rhydon if it had actually hurt itself in confusion. Tundur was actually able to deal a ton of damage and paralyze Gyarados, but was just too weak to tank more then 2 hits.
Decided that for Red I wanted a mix of my team members I used in Kanto and my original team. Now back to grinding so I'm at a half decent level to fight Red. God, this is gonna suck.

Again, he did some significant damage to Blue's Gyarados despite being only 37. If the paralysis had just stopped it for just 1 turn, he could've killed the thing.

Well, today I was given a reminder that my overconfidence will only get me into trouble.

I planned for a few things, but if there was one thing I did NOT expect was Jasmine having a fucking Gallade that used Swords Dance and deleted my entire team with Psycho Cut. So, it was a clean wipe.

But, the run ain't over yet, maybe? What Pokemon do you guys think should go in the stead of the poor bastards that got absolutely demolished? I don't even know at this point lmao

for what it's worth, i'm 99% sure Met Location and Hatch Location occupy the same memory within the game (starting in crystal when that stuff is tracked). so that's how i roll in every game, but i think counting Gifted Location is a more than reasonable alternative if that's someone's preference. not wild about them being free encounters but it's not like they're game breaking or anything.

Realistically, it kinda feels like only Sacred Gold/Storm Silver are the most nuzlocke-friendly Dray hacks. Falkner is easy peasy, and Bugsy can be handled without a wipe for sure. Morty's.... something, though.

Ah! I should add, Jasmine's Gym is a Psychic Gym and her team is Xatu, Metagross, and Gallade.
Whitney's Gym was Grass, and she had a Nuzleaf and a Victreebel.
Morty had a Dark team consisting of Nuzleaf, Mightyena, Murkrow, and Skuntank.
And Chuck had a fuckin' Ghost Gym, and his team was Drifblim and Spiritomb.

that was an...interesting e4 to say the least, more annoying than i thought it'd be.

Sidney: thought planetfit would just sweep the team, but the mightyena got a sand attack off, the shiftry got a double team up, and then it became a shitshow. had to swap around a lot as it got off a surprising bit of damage on my team while i couldn't hit it, eventually ABBA pulled through with a crit ice beam. then planetfit came back in and killed everything.

Phoebe: planned a blackglasses sweep with raid's crunch, nearly got fucked by dusclop's ice beam. swapped around a bit for each member of her team, eventually spotify killed off the last banette and sableye.

Glacia: planetfit beat down the two sealeos and a glalie but took an icy wind when i stupidly decided to bulk up, didn't want to stay in on the second glalie to take an ice beam which could kill me on crit. no matter, jump killed the glalie, then kojima and spotify killed walrein.

Drake: scariest member of the e4, tried to just beat him down with jump spamming ice beam, kingdra stopped that, was a 3HKO with ice beam so it got up 2 dragon dances, planned to sack planetfit to get a free switch to ABBA and HOPEFULLY not get paralyzed or crit, but drake got greedy and tried to DD again, planetfit killed that, then spotify murdered salamence

Wallace: fun as hell fight, ABBA squared off against wailord as it set up rain, got off a double edge on a low roll, out comes tentacruel, i swapped to kojima but it did a LOT less damage than i thought with psychic while it killed him in return with crit sludge bomb into poison proc, goodbye fren ;( out comes RAID with an EQ, so milotic comes out. sent out jump to toxic it and spam sludge bomb, out comes whiscash, so i send in ABBA to giga drain it, finally the last mon gyarados comes out, i swap to spotify as it dragon dances and lets loose a hyper beam....which misses, allowing spotify to smash it hard with a shock wave for victory.

lead with something that can use taunt and a setup move, the xatu literally does not have an attacking move. then just blow through the team. or of course distribute the roles, something taunts the xatu then you swap to your sweeper. could use machoke, or gyarados, or kingler for the sweeper and almost everything can use taunt

It unfortunately does have Fury Cutter, so that might throw a slight wrench in the plan. Reflect can work yeah.

Funny how this shit works, one moment I feel cocksure about everything, and the next I'm wrapping my head around a major fuckup. Nuzlockes are full of surprises!

Rough patch for us. After losing Roth in Rock Tunnel to unfortunate circumstances, I tried to take on the Rival fight in Pokemon Tower, and it was messy. We lost half our team in that fight, so big L for me. Erika was actually a fairly challenging fight going in underleveled, but we managed to avoid a death in there. Turned the Eevee into a Jolteon, added a Meowth and a Doduo as a temporary team member, and soldiering on into the Rocket Lair.

You can do it with obs. I used ffmpeg to edit mine but you can use an editor of your choice. It's a bit tricky to format for 4chan, if you're familiar with the command line / terminal and or know how to use ffmpeg I can help you do it that way

55 isn't underleveled for Wallace. His teams ranges from 55-58. A 2-3 level difference doesn't mean as much when you're in the 50 as it does when you're in the teens cause of the law of diminishing returns. There's almost no difference if his team was 58.

I've even got shit like Rejuvination in my sights, although I hafta play it first, and that would likely take a while given I'd definitely have to record it like I am with Reborn.

It matters more in the early game cause you can potentially gets moves or evos that wouldn't be available with a flat cap. Also, like I said, a level or 2 is more important early on when +2 atk is like a 15% damage boost.

Poor Sushi, probably should've trained up Goramei and used her instead.
Lots of close calls in this fight.
Rollina slaughtered the Pikachu with Earthquake no problem, swapped to Monroni to kill the Espeon with Shadowball, Blastoise was killed by Lankey's thunder punch, Snorlax was killed after swapping out for Rollina and 2 Earthquakes, then Venusaur was killed by Mary using Fly, before it died it got off sunny day, then Charizard came out and I swapped for Sushi and... Well I overestimated Sushi quite a bit. After Sushi died I used Rollina to Rock Throw the Charizard to death.
Honestly I'm glad its over, because I'm finally free of grinding hell. I do feel bad for my dead pokemon, because each of them died from my own recklessness.

My Politoed soloed almost half of Lance's team, he kept trying to waterfall it with his Gyrados, which kept healing it.
I also want to say that Ariados has been amazing this run. I may have skewed my team comp by always having a bug and poison type on my team, but it really did wonders and don't regret keeping it on my team the entire game.

Trying out a Nuzlocke run for the first time using OR. For those that have done runs with ORAS, what are your rules surrounding Dexnav pokemons that pokes out of tall grass?
I personally treat them as a seperate encounter from the random one. However, if I catch the pokemon or fail to catch during the battle, I treat it as the encounter for the route and therefore won't be catching anything anymore. If i startle/let it escape, i am not allowed to search for a pokemon that way again but i can still catch one from the usual random encounter.

i'd say stick with one encounter but use the dexnav if you want. it seems super busted to count it as a separate encounter from a random battle in the same area. if anything, using the dexnav to force your encounter is a major help and way better than a random encounter in almost every scenario.

Ye that's retarded wording in my part. What I meant was that if I startle the pokemon, it won't count as a failed attempt and I'm not allowed to catch anything that pops out of the grass again. But if I went into battle with that pokemon, then that will be the random encounter for the route.

Gen 4 AI sends out something that's strong against whatever you have out based on a certain algorithm (most AI in the series works like this actually AFAIK apart from Gen 1). You might have had Buizel or something out and the AI decided to go Mismagius for Magical Leaf, or had Staravia out and the AI calc'd that Mismagius's Psybeam was better than Haunter's Sucker Punch for damage.
But yeah, in the future, you do have to account for the AI sending out whatever and prepare accordingly. Good luck on future runs, anon

the universal randomizer in the OP has a lot of customization. for example, an option to replace encounters with another pokemon of similar strength.
can't recall if there are options to change encounter rates, my guess is it leaves them alone and just replaces what those encounters are. could be wrong though.
download it and tinker around, it's pretty easy to use.

yeah, I'll admit this is the furthest I've ever gotten
Teem is not looking so hot either, i really don't like Dale (pacharichu) cuz he feels like a z00mer's picachu but it was down to him, cleffa, bidoof, or medicham and I needed the cofrege against water and other lightning types.
Found out the next gym is a fighting type which is cool as Petrus can probaby sweep them (would have been better had Sauron not died but what's done is done)
I'm going to bed now and while I drift off to dreams I'm going to slowly come to terms with the fact my run is ending and I'll likely have to start up another one soon
HOWEVER
that is part of the game, I CAN attest that Platinid is absolutely moar difficult than HGSS at the very least.

good and bad news in this update
the good news is that Porcus Focus (who also evolved!) and Icaria beat Korrina's Gym pretty easily
bad news is half way though Ramos Gym Lizardon got killed by a random trainer exeggutor so my ace of the gym and my second starter is fucking dead due to me being careless about it just because Lizardon had an advantage on the gym, feels patethic and horrible man
I might be forced to use the gifted Lucario for a while because I'm running out of options

Depends on your preference. Personally, I have the dupes clause only count for living pokemon. If its dead, you can take a new one of its evo line. But you can't have it both ways. So you can't just decide to skip it on one route and then decide to catch it on another route

Stealth Rock/Dragon Tail really fucked me up. I should have tried to kill the Druddigon instead of set up on it. Elf9 died on a bad switch in by me. I thought the Hydreigon would fire blast but instead it dark pulse and she died to a crit.
I'm really going to miss her and ShulShaga, who had the most clutch send out. Dodging a fire blast to take out the Salamence on 6 hp, and gave her life taking 1/3 of Haxorus' with Iron Barbs+Rocky Helmet, so Maria ould finish the job as the last standing.

Got a ton of coins in the Game Corner, stumbled onto two shiny Clefairy bonuses first thing and my luck didn't cease from there.
>Vs Maylene
>Meditite
Ravena Plucks Meditite!
>Machoke
Another Pluck does big damage, but Machoke hits back with Rock Tomb(causing a Speed drop).
The next Pluck takes it out and Shell Bell restores some of Ravena's health.
>Lucario
It hits Ravena with Force Palm, and she hits it with a Confuse Ray.
A Metal Claw Crit does hefty damage, but a Pluck that both steals Lucario's Sitrus Berry and gets some Shell Bell healing puts Ravena back in workable fighting shape.
Another Metal Claw lands, but Ravena Roosts it off. I do worry about Lucario getting an Attack buff from all these Metal Claws, I probably can't let Ravena do this. Might as well switch while Lucario is still confused.
I switch in Bravo, and Lucario snaps out of confusion and hits him with Metal Claw.
Another Metal Claw is met with Revenge, and the battle is over.

As the thread approaches the Bump Limit I once again call on the baker to UPDATE THE STICKY
I have provided one that I took the time to write, you may simply use it >>46044542
Regardless I will present a better comparison between DeSmuMe and melonDS which I think proves beyond any reasonable doubt that the claim in the current sticky that Desmume is 'the best emulator out there at the moment' is NOT true anymore. That statement WAS true in 2017 when the sticky was written
HOWEVER
Times have changed.
>DeSmuMe vs melonDS
Here I tested DeSmuMe on the left and melonDS on the right. You can clearly see the fps is printed to the blue bar at the top of the screen. I am running both emulators concurrently and unfortunately do not have a fast enought computer to render both at 60fps at the same time HOWEVER if you do then you may repeat the same test with the frame rate uncapped and you will find similar results that way
>FPS
DeSmuME:
Idle: 30-52 avg: ~45
Walking1: 35-45 avg ~40
Walking2: 30-40 avg ~35
vs
melonDS:
Idle: 45 -50 avg: ~48
Walking: 30-50 avg ~40
Walking2: 45-50 avg ~45
>Texture glitches
The video clearly shows the random black lines which plague emulation on DeSmuMe while you can see melonDS does NOT have this problem.
Note the 'blurry' ness of the video is a result of the compression to the webm format. These videos were recorded at 1200x800 resolution and if I uploaded the raw footage to youtube they would not be blurry
>Solutions?
I propose that we AT LEAST recommend melonDS to newfags in the sticky if not remove DeSmuMe all together.
The fact is that development of DeSmuMe has ended (their last release was in 2105!) while melonDS will only continue to get better over time.
It's time to stop living in the past and embrace the improved emulators of the future
Oh yeah, PS
>melonDS supports local wifi connections so you can trade your pokemon between games :)

Beat the Elite 4, N and Ghetsis. This is Drayano's hardest hack for sure, and I think if I hadn't gotten this encounter quality I wouldn't have won. Dragonite completely annihilated the entire Elite 4 + Plasma fights but the overall MVP was Jirachi. I'm running Sacred Gold next with the same ruleset and hopefully push all the way to Red.

You can, but those trainers do not give as much exp relative to your levels for the leader as a gauntlet of E4 members would so this is a bit of a false equivalence.
It strikes a nice balance so you're not massively overlevelled for the weakest E4s but can be on roughly par/slightly under the champion.

Keldeo is in the puddle encounter pool in Moor of Iccirius, so if you have a level 55 pokemon in the front and you use repels it'll come eventually. I got Jirachi by using dupes clause + Audino.+ luck. Audino was one of my encounters kinda early and I killed it by mistake but the shaking grass encounter tables are kind of insane so I found myself going for those more often than not.

There is a clean version that doesn't change anything about the Pokemon. The changes included in the full version give the early game a lot more variety so I think it's better to nuzlocke with the full version but try them both if you're unsure.

As for tips, plan very carefully for every boss battle and read the important trainer rosters very thoroughly. In Volt White 1 you can get most of the fossils before the third gym fight and take them back to Nacrene City to revive them, which comes in handy if you didn't start with Tepig or didn't manage to find a fire type before then. Lastly, when it comes to starters in the full version, Tepig's line was buffed to have Adaptability and Snivy's will have Contrary, so unless you want to handicap yourself don't pick Oshawott, who didn't get the same level of buffs.

Well, turns out all it took was fucking Exeggutor spamming Sleep Powder, Leech Seed, Reflect, and Confusion as needed, and Jasmine's AI went retard mode and kept using Slash instead of anything else. The only other thing that happened was Gyarados Taunting Xatu so a Hyper Potion was wasted.

To be honest as easy as the victory was I'm kinda pissed at my dumb ass that I lost all those Pokemon just to realize that memeworthy stall tactics was all it took.

Stall is the most broken thing in nuzlockes, especially if you use items in battle. Just Toxic everything and spam hp potions or sleep the opponent's lead and setup with x items.

Do people actually UNIRONICALLY use stat change moves on their turn? I can sorta see using like Hyponsis or Thunder Wave and shit like that but I have NEVER not ONCE used ANY defense curl or harden or agility or any of that shit. Is THAT what you fucking z00mers are doing to win against OP overlevelled Jim liters?

Personally, I only ever just used pokemon you can find in the base game. Only would be trade evos, but I can just disable those with the randomizer. Cause say you're bringing in pokemon from a file you weren't nuzlocking, that means you potentially got to choose your encounter from an entire separate game roster.

I could consider it fine if there was some way you could randomize which gba game was in the slot, otherwise you could cheese it to help get encounters you want by selecting certain games based off what mons will show up with them, or if you stuck with one single version and never switched it for another.

its kind of got the flareon problem with its learnset taking forever to get filled (even though flareon gets blitz now) it has huge defense/attack though so by all means try it, quick attack will prove pretty effective on it for a 2nd move slot.
personally i prefer tangrowth if i want a bulky grass type and get the catch, but i haven't tried leafeon myself yet.

Leafeon is the second worst eeveelution behind Flareon. Grass isn't that good of a type during the average nuzlocke anyway so if you're considering it just for its typing, don't sweat not having a grass type. If you need a physical mon, Ponyta/Machop/Meditite/Graveler/Crobat/Bibarel all fill that niche well enough and they're very common early game

Trash. It doesn't learn leaf blade till like 71 in gen 4 and there's no real substitute for that move like thunderbolt would be for Jolteon instead of discharge. And Leafeon doesn't really have any other utility outside of being a physical attacker with high def. If you wanted bulk, Umbreon or Glaceon's better.

Pokeballs have a catch multiplayer. Normal ones are x1 obviously. Great balls and ultra balls I think are x1.5 and x2 respectively. Timer balls at their max are x4, so they're twice as good as ultra balls once set up. I think dusk balls are x3.5 if they can be used.

Repel and Dupe Clause abuse are Nuzlocke staples at this point. I'd say it's a little questionable (though still legal) if you've never used the 'Mons you're skipping over before, but if you are doing it specifically for a run that feels fresh, it makes total sense.

I got a Riolu from the egg you get in the Trainer's School then ran around for ~30 minutes with speed up to grind friendship for the evolution. Optimistic about the encounter quality early on sans the Weedle. Will report back after the first gym battle.

I never use repels because I'm too lazy to check what levels certain Pokemon are or if there are special dust cloud spawns and shit.

Good luck, friend! You've got a good start already. I'd suggest, for Nuzlocke's sake, dropping two of the three gift 'Mons when you get a set like the starters, though. They are technically from the same zone, after all. If it were me, I'd pick one and kill the other two.

Update on my progress. Chester is an absolute unit, had it not been for him I probably would have had to rely on setting up with Phyll holding the Silk Scarf and trying to sweep with Tackle. Going to Castelia to hopefully get more stuff for the team after spending an hour at Pokestar Studios. Early BW2 really is limited with the encounters isn't it?

Use Starmie on Politoed and stall out rain before killing it, this probably prompts out Ludicolo to use a grass attack which is a great time to bring in Rapidash to set sun, though you will take a nasty chunk from Hydro Pump.
Couple questions
* Is Venusaur Chlorophyll?
* What ability is that Bibarel? Might be a great counter to Carracosta.
* Do you have Eviolite still? You can probably abuse the shit out of Porygon2.
I think a decent team here would be something like Starmie, Venusaur, Snorlax, Porygon2, Rapidash and Bibarel (if Unaware) or Swanna.

Alternatively you could do something jank like parafusing and debuffing the lead Politoed's accuracy then try setting up with another mon to sweep the team, though I don't know how you feel about accuracy shenanigans and I don't actually know how the Gen 5 AI reacts to that (though I'm fairly sure it doesn't switch, Gen 3 which is some of the best in the series doesn't).

Eviolite on Porygon2 is probably a good idea if you have it.

Got myself in a rough spot just before the gym battle with Burgh in my White 2 run. I was careless with grinding and also missed a couple of encounters so I'm going into the fight with only three Pokemon, all of which are weak to Bug or Grass. I think I can pull off a win thanks to Charm on Azumarill, but a crit will end the run.

It would seem that not even Drayano can fix Sinnoh's piss-easy early game. In fact, the abundance of gift 'mons exacerbates it. 6-0ed Roark by yawning the Nosepass then switching into Lucario and settiing up a Swords Dance then just spammed Force Palm. I don't see myself really struggling here until I get to Fantina, but we shall see.

Learning which trainers are optional helps. You'd be surprised how many trainers in every game are optional.

I'm really going through my friends ;_;

The Nugget Bridge trainers were tougher than I remembered, and I incurred a heavy loss there. Rest in peace Lenk, you carried me to this point...
Misty was easy though, Venus wiped the floor with her since she had no Psychic attacks.
