    You can run mods on Switch. The bigger deal is how much easier it is to handle any kind of video business on PC. You'd probably need some kind of capture card to record or stream Switch games, and you'd still need a powerful PC to do the bulk of the editing anyway. It's just smart to...

    I'd like to see this one because I don't think I've ever bothered with it in-game. Good movepool too. Glaceon... isn't anything to write home about tbh. I used it plenty of times and like, it doesn't disappoint, but it doesn't do anything super cool. Haha Ice Beam go brrrrrrrrrr gets old after...

    Most people hate high school because most times there are few to no practical examples or explanations about why one would use the things they're learning. Of course, that doesn't make that knowledge useless or not valid. For example, most gym bros use physics and biology in their daily lives...

    That makes sense. It's one of those things that once you have, you can't go back. Maybe you can simulate the experience by watching a vid of BotW running at 60FPS and then at 30 on Youtube.

    *Looks at Korrina* :worrywhirl: Giovanni could've worked, but they didn't seem to really be able to make custom movesets. He desperately needed Nidoking and Nidoqueen with actual coverage. Kanto had no shortage of good Ground-types, but they needed to get in their bag to really cook on that battle.

    Good point :blobthumbsup: You can catch one and double back to Olivine to run through people's pockets in the Lighthouse to get it up to speed.

    :smogduck: Huh? That's... Not a thing at all. That says more about the implementation of an otherwise good feature than the core idea behind it. (The morons locked Easy Mode behind clearing the game on Normal ffs) Pokémon has too broad of an audience to not have difficulty settings. It can't...

    FPS absolutely matters, if anything "graphics" are overrated. If a game has good models and all that, but lacks good framerate, it instantly looks like trash to me. On the other hand, I don't really mind weaker graphics if the game is as smooth as my brain because it runs at 60fps. Sinnoh's...

    Pretty much. I guess they realized it and didn't do one for Team Magma/Aqua/Galactic/etc... :totodiLUL:

    Shouldn't be too hard to get a quick test on it even if you're not planning on running it tho. Catching a Buzz and evolving it is fairly trivial. The problem is getting Volkner to try and hit an Electric-type with an Electric move. Croak vs Wake probably only works because their STAB Water...

    That's more on the tileset and map design than grid mechanics though. For example, would any of you think this is plain terrain?

    This. It's less of an issue when you have more visual clarity. That Hoenn route with the fast currents is the worst about this.

    That's a huge plus to BDSP imo. Everything is so much snappier and quicker it's not even funny.

    Let's Play! What if we did get a "Platinum" remake tho? - Sigma Platinum (Blind)

    As we all know, BDSP... was not a Platinum remake. At all. A lot can be said about both the Distortion World and the Battle Frontier, but personally, besides the loss of the Battle Factory, I don't particularly care about either of those. But what if a compromise was reached? Basically...

    Ehhhhhh, Lumineon's SpA is bad enough that I'd consider it after getting something down to half HP. Like most Water TMs though, it comes too late to be useful. By the time you get Surf, that's what you're really going to use. Could be worse though, right, Water Pulse? :pip:

    Ironically, had they swapped the properties of those in Gen 2 to have Dark as a Physical type and Ghost as Special, both would've benefitted immensely. All Dark moves up to Gen 3 were changed to physical moves after the modern PSS split in Gen 4. Just a really odd decision.
