Can I beat Pokemon Scarlet with only Paldean mons? Episode 5 | FandomEpisode…pokemon.fandom.com

Mm... potatoes...

Anywho, much like tom the smoliv last episode, it seems Sukki the Flittle is just very hard to grind fo some reason.

Wait fire types can't freeze....can they?

Tera psybeam from Sukki is kinda weak...I'm just gonna farm some raids for candies, becuz I need espathra...or maybe I'll get espathra when I get to Larry.

I shouldn't be relying on evolutions to use mons. No more forced evos down their throats!

Anywho that's enough grinding, let's detox tagtree thicket!

As for the guard...

Luckily, the stockpiles didn't run out of control and Sukkis psybeam was able to beat this blob.

Phryge takes care if his past self too.

Lele, Sukki and Wenlock handle the star barrage, and for the first time in one of these my mons get close to losing, withe Lele even barely beating some foongus and Amoonguss. Thank goodness for the vending machines. Now, can we beat Atticus?

Sukkis baby doll eyes manages to get rid of 3 sucker punch PP, but she got severely wounded by a stray venoshock, so wenlock had to beat skuntank....which also had toxic. He also used sandstorm to get around the silly skunk. (We also learn semi invulnerable moves have sucker punch attack you the first turn it's used)

Earth eater counters revavroom jrs bulldoze and it only gets off a single assurance before falling.

Next is Muk. How tanky is it again?

Welp, time to engage the sand again. Wenlock I doubt is a heavy hitter. Humorously his steel typing completely walls muks sludge wave and Muk falls to 3 tera steel iron heads.

Wenlock trades iron heads with the star mobiles flame charges and accidentally sets up 2 layers of t spikes. A 3rd flame charge puts him at very low health so I heal, and set up the sand again as it hits +6. I'm forced to potion him again at the end...but Wenlock eventually trashes the car and wins me the fight.

...tell me I get lumina crash. (Yes!)

Oh and Miga rejoined the squad too. I'm too attached to him. The current squad seems relatively set in stone in my head, but I may change my mind later as we head into medali...the halfway mark.

The first gym challengers Gumshoos strong jaw activated on Sukki since it's bite put her on 1hp with a crit. Yikes! Nini defeats the greedent that came after.

Sukkis luck goes better against the 2nd trainer (ironically it's against dunsparce, the tsuchinoko pokemon that's supposed to be elusive) and 3rd trainer as well.

Anywho after getting the special dish, I swap Miga to the front to take it on. Can he sweep this?

Unfortunately he only got 2 arm thrusts off on Komala before getting yawned...so I swap in Nini who also gets yawned...so I swap into wenlock...who gets yawned too...then I swap into Sukki, as komala lives on 1 health after dodging a failed sucker punch and firing back a lumina crash...komala then yawns her...so I go into phryge...and finally end the koala with U-Turn. Phew!

Dudunsparce lives a wild charge and goes for drill run, severely harming Miga, so I swap to dig... but he goes down anyway, ending his unbeaten streak. Sukki then lumina crashes Dudunsparce for the win.

Now for a bird fight. Let's see what staraptor can do to a psychic ostrich. (Answer: apparently nothing!)

Uh..yeah...

That said...is Miga available to use here?

(Apparently yes via Geeta).

Can't wait to be rid of this, it's a inconsistent multi hit move and close combat is apparently coming up, boy am I so excited for that. (Oh and nemonas lycanroc goes down)

Next her goomy confuses a switched in wenlock with water pulse but he beats it in 2 iron heads.

When pawmo comes out I swap in Miga again, who beats it with dig.

I wasn't looking here, so I didn't know quaquaval was coming, wenlock is used her becuz steels defensive MU is on another level. I then swap to Nini to tank aqua step, but he's defeated by tera aqua jet.

I make a mistake here becuz I forgot quaquavals pure water now and Sukki also pays the price for it. Why am I so scared of starter vs starter MUs again?

Miga barely tanks a aqua step and finished it off... though he also KOed himself. Phew.

I think that's all for today. I think rymes my next target....or tusk. I dunno. Find out next time I guess.

Can I beat Pokemon Scarlet with only Paldean mons? Episode 4 | FandomEpisode…pokemon.fandom.com

Gonna train 2 new members today. With the exception of tandemaus I feel I'd be able to use them all at some point.

That's a familiar moveset...

So game accurate it hurts I guess. I wonder when it will get more moves

Anywho maybe using smoliv was a mistake because boy is it weak. Tom barely got any wins while training.

I'm curious where copper grew cyborg components now. His eyes just turn off like the future paradoxes...

Tom and Nini both hit their Evo levels at the same time. How would that work?

Answer: They take turns. Tom was in my first party slot while Nini was my third, so they evolved in that order. Interesting.

That explains rabscas psychic typing.

I was gonna use miraitowa or Someity, but settled on Petra instead, becuz one this beetles female and two I'm saving her partners named for Mabostiff, might as well use her name as well.

Anywho , enough stalling. Let's go do kofus wallet side quest.

Remember how I said Petra had a partner?

Yeah. It was either this or greavard. I chose this one because of arven.

Reason: Catalan sheepdog.

Anywho I train a bit more before reaching Porto marinada, where Tom makes short work of Kofus partner. Can he do the same to Kofu?

Ok...? Anywho now for the main event.

Tom goes for grassy terrain as Veluza plucks him. Unfortunately he gets defeated with ease. But that's alright.

I have other ways around kofus water types. Miga finished off Veluza with wild charge, Nini handles wugtrio with electro ball and Magique tussles with Crabominable at the end, easily defeating the crab with the power of grassy terrain and tera.

Now...Larry or Atticus next? Maybe Atticus. Phryge and Wenlock (Titan Orthworm) join the team, Phryge is mostly just there to remove t spikes if I need to, and since I don't have tinkaton this time, though eventually I did a full on team reshuffle to give miga and Waldi a break.

Sweet.

I think this is a good point to end. Next up is probably training huanhuan and Flittle to take on Atticus poisons.
