Pokemon Tectonic, a fangame created in Pokemon Essentials, where you discover the ancient secrets of the Makya region over a 60+ hour campaign.
This game features heavy rebalancing of nearly every Pokemon in the dex, with many move, status and ability alterations on top of revamped type interactions. Among some of the major features are 20+ regional forms and mega evolutions converted into regular evolutions.
This is a thread where a group of autists play through fangames and laugh with, but more usually at them, unless in the rare case the game turns out to be good.

Okay, beat Anna and the first Champion battle, but it looks like there's more to come.The twist was actually fairly satisfying. Unless I'm mistaken, it seems like this only happened once before so there's no infinite continuity bullshit. And it seems like you're not chosen by destiny to win - Jirachi is obviously nowhere near as powerful as Arceus, and all the wish did was save your life and Amethyst's. So getting to the E4 was all you and the timeline reset merely gave you the opportunity. Lin being the orphanage chick was obvious. I'm not sure how Shade factors into all this however. I guess the snuff films you saw in his gym were from the original series of events, in which case can we please return to the universe where Amaria is dead

>>55034186 It's not really that major of a reveal if you want to see and it's stuck fairly deep in postgame.
Jirachi for some reason needed a human sacrifice to create a wish on that scale of power. Shade was a tranny who couldn't get bottom surgery and already planned on killing herself, so she volunteered to be said sacrifice. As for what the deal is with the screens in the gym and why only 2 of the 4 were correct, that's not really explained, I don't think

Okay I'm at the second Lin fight and... I don't think I can possibly win. I mean this in the most literal sense - I'm skeptical that there is any possible combination of moves used in succession by my team that would ever allow me to win this battle, let alone the one after it. I can see why posters here always call glitch/fairy tale/flower field the "second most bullshit" and not the absolute worst like... fuck me, man, I've been playing this shit over a hundred hours and it feels like I've hit an unbreakable wall. talk about blueballs

Trick Room does very well into the fight if you can set it up, maybe with Clefable or something. Remember that Nature Power turns to Spacial Rend which gets a big buff and she has 2 dragons + Honchkrow will try and fail to Sucker Punch on Nature Power, if you have anything that can learn that.
You put Kingambit on so you should be good for Mismagius no?
The big problem would be Celesteela, Fire mons are just too good in Reborns E4. I know you said you have Blaziken and Rotom, perhaps try to shave it down with those two?

>>55036559 Honestly I expected /vp/ to explode even harder, surprisingly it's been pretty tame so far, Violet paradoxes as usual, just look like shit, I don't think anything here looks great, but I don't hate a few of these,
I haven't seen it in action yet but apparently Hydrapple gets a really cool gimmick where it grows new heads like it's namesake, which is pretty cool, I really feel like I should dislike paradox Entei, but for some reason, I like it, it's color scheme is retarded, but seeing it's signature move especially makes me very interested in this bastard. >Switch games Imagine not being part of the PC master race?

>>55036559 My team is Grafaiai, Silvally, Blaziken, Alolan Ninetales, mower rotom, and Clefable. Didn't actually get around to the Kingambit and none of my crew can learn either trick room or nature power. I relied heavily on Aurora Veil to let my team set up, and Rotom's Grassy Surge to suppress field effects. Of course, none of them work now. Yeah, I might just open up my PC with debug and rearrange my team a little bit. I've been training up new mons fairly often so I have a pretty wide roster to choose from, if nothing else...

>>55036763 Ah yeah Grafaiai, forgot.
Yeah it was a bold choice for a game to encourage a lot of creativity in tackling fields from taking advantage of them to figuring out ways to remove them temporarily to then say "nope! can't do that anymore haha". While also screwing weatherbros for no reason.
The kicker is that there's a fight on that field later on in postgame with constant hail active.

Okay, I finally, finally beat the game. As frustrating as that last bit was, winning was still satisfying. I had to use debug to open my PC and replace Ninetales and Rotom with Milotic and Mimikyu. My strategy took me several tries, but it involved using choice scarf silvally to OHKO mismagius and cripple flygon, Grafaiai to kill clefable with the poison z move, Mimikyu to kill Honchkrow(I got lucky here desu) and then for Celesteela I send in milotic and switch to grafaiai. I used encore to lock celesteela into giga drain, then parting shot to switch to blaziken and set up to sweep the rest of her team. I handled Arceus with my Clefable using Cosmic Power + baton pass into Milotic and then Toxistalling That fight was hell. As for the story, The Lin twist made perfect sense and was telegraphed a mile away, but she's still a terrible fourth wall breaking villain. God am I glad I chose the route where she dies. I'm kind of burned out on Reborn so I think the postgame can wait, if I even bother with it

As others have said, Reborn's postgame is mostly for powercreep and autism fights, and also a cap off for character arcs. But none are really resolved until you beat the postgame in its entirety which is still another 30 hours or so.
Wouldn't blame you if you skipped it.

On the route where Lin doesn't die, you eventually beat her, on the route Lin dies, Anna goes insane and you have to beat her up.

Okay, so, I barely started Virtualization and holy fuck is it bad, I had some hope it was just a Pokemon that ripped off VRAINS but holy fuck is it far worse than that and the game forces you to deal with bullshit right out the gate that makes Empire seem merciful by comparison, the game looks ugly as shit, has several bugs that cause crashes by just opening the menu and worst of all, it unironically tries to shove the Ashnime's story into the mix and even gives you his Grenigger as a starter, with a fully competitive set, perfect IVs and EV spreads and somehow it's still terrible at dealing with the bullshit the game throws against you right off the gate, what a shitshow.

Speaking of Sage, I haven't played it since t's earliest version and then never touched it again, how far into development is it these days? I heard the devs had a schism, though I'm not sure if it's true.

this dragon cave gauntlet is like a lot of the puzzles/gimmicks in reborns areas in that its a neat concept that way overstays its welcome. None of this shit needs to take as long as it does.

I'd normally avoid spoilers but this isn't something too big, Terra practically disappears from the game after this and only shows up pretty late into the post-game, she becomes mildly less unbearable during it but it's still Terra.
