I'm looking at you, Gen 5.
>>30949372
Totem Lurantis too.
>spend 3 hours arranging my TMs so they'll be in numberical order
>you found TM23 Dig!
>>30949409
S/M sort of mitigates this by having the move tutor teach your mans moves above their current level. It was unbearable in B/W.
>>30948210
>Walrein used stockpile
>>30949474
I remember breezing through most of R/S until that bitch sent out a Walrein.
>>30948210
>It'll be different this time, I swear
>Walrein used Fissure!
>It's a One-hit KO!
>Clefairy used Cosmic Power
>>30947964
So is wild pokemon battle escaping rate determined by your pokemon's level vs opponent's level and/or speed?
>>30949372
>level 9 salamence
This happens to me too often
>>30949635
Speed pretty sure.
>>30947964
Stop having shitty, weak mons
>>30949427
Dig is TM28 you filthy casual.
>>30949427
But..you can sort them by number with X
>>30949635
It's just speed.
The faster you are, the more likely you are to escape.
I believe Ghost types can always escape and are also immune to being trapped.
>>30949689
>>30952309
Also the chance increases a bit each time you try to escape
>"Gah! And it was so close too!"
No face can show how annoied I get every time I get that message. Is there a much more annoying message in Pokemon than this?
>You used *70% acc move*
>Pokemon Avoided the attac
>repeat 3x-5x in a row
>enemy uses *70% acc move*
>literally will hit every time
I swear, Dragon Rush is some rigged bullshit.
>main playthrough
>wild pokemon allies appear pretty much 100% of the time
>post game EV training
>wild pokemon allies appear like 50% of the time or less
>got critical capture with Beast Ball on UBs everytime
>never got crical capture again with regular balls on regular mons
>>30954230
"It hit itself in confusion!" gets really annoying at the third time in a row. Same with "It's a One-Hit KO!" I was once swept by Walrien just never fucking missing once.
>>30948023
>accelrock
Fucking kill me
>>30955002
At least it's not Hypnosis or Supersonic.
>>30955002
>Dragon Rush
>not a priority move
>>30949372
Fuck Lances Dragonites in gold/silver.
They knew you would be lower level than in R/B/Y and had to adjust his levels accordingly, except they didn't do shit for adding new dragon types and he's the fucking elite 4 dragon tamer so he HAD to have dragonites, so they just straight up broke the rules and gave him impossible shit.
A low level Dragonite is still a Dragonite, while you quite possibly still have mons that haven't even reached their final evolution yet thanks to reaching the end game at a lower level than previous games.
>>30955176
>Johto introduces a second dragon-type pokemon
>Lance doesn't use it
>>30955225
No because for some reason they wanted two Dragon type specialist even though the game had two Dragon type families.
>"well it's just a low level pokemon, i'll just—"
>X used [trapping move]!
>x used Bullet Seed
>it's the full 5 hits
>EV training attack against Trumbeak
>Fury attack hits 5 times every time
>>30955367
The animation takes so fucking long too
>A wild ___ appeared!
>You got away successfully!
>Take one step
>A wild ___ appeared!
>>30949647
This one gets a pass because it's just fucking hilarious.
