  1. Gen 5 is the first time I hated all the starters, it's also my least favourite gen. I remember not enjoying it when it first came out and recently I've been doing nuzlocke runs of all the games - I gave up on this one about half way through, could not force myself through it. It's not just the starters I don't like, Gen 5 in general has some of me least favourite pokemon. Krookodile, Excadrill, Hydreigon and Volcorana are pretty much the only ones I'd say I like.
  2. Last year was the first time in a few years that buying a home wasn't one of my resolutions, yet it actually finally happened. Perhaps I should just say stuff I don't want to happen Really though my only goal this year is to start eating better and get into better shape, I've just had a rowing machine delivered this morning so hopefully I actually use that on the regular!
  3. Football Season 2023/24

    As a United supporter I want Ten Hag to stay. To me this continuous cycle of managers coming in and "losing the dressing room" shows that there are some toxic players at the club that will just down tools if they don't get their way. Ole was apparently too touchy feely and didn't train hard enough, Ten Hag is apparently too distant and trains too hard, they can't win!... Nothing will change until these players are shipped out, I don't think any manager could do the job whilst they're still at the club. Arteta was given time at Arsenal to do something similar, get rid of overpaid players, even if it's at a loss, and rebuild with an emphasis on youth. The trouble is whilst the Glazers are there they would never accept selling players on the cheap. Apparently the reason Martial is still at the club is because, for some reason, the Glazers like him and have blocked multiple managers from selling. Rashford having one good season, getting a new mega contract, and then going back to his usual self is disgraceful, but not at all surprising and he shouldn't be anywhere near the team at the moment.
  4. Marvel's Phase 5

  5. Marvel's Phase 5

    I mean that's kind of a staple with the MCU... Lots of the films themselves do not necessarily impact the wider Universe but will hint to other things in the credit scenes, or have aspects that are tied together and called back to in future movies. I'm not saying this film is top tier MCU, of course it isn't. But it's also no where near the bottom and I still think it's worth seeing in the cinema.

    Thank God! It drove me mad that the things you could do from a Pokémon's summary screen changed when they were in your party or in a box!
  8. Marvel's Phase 5

    Have to completely disagree with MindFreak, just got back from seeing Ant-Man and enjoyed it. Not the funniest of the Ant-Man movies but when dealing with Kang it definitely shouldn't be. Rather than Love and Thunder which was way over the top with the (attempted) comedy when it should have been much more serious considering the villain, I thought the tone was fine for the subject and to kick off Phase 5. Also, you're really going to question how shit works in the Quantum Realm, as far as I'm aware there isn't much real life knowledge of how physics in such a place might work . Also, the whole Ant-Man mass thing has been the same in all the movies, so at least it's remained consistent within the MCU. MODOK was the one thing I didn't really enjoy and actually thought most of his stuff fell flat. I would definitely recommend going to see it if you're an MCU fan, just don't expect it to be a comedy. I expected it to be more serious than the other Ant-Man films so maybe that was why I enjoyed it - it didn't go against what I was expecting.
  9. Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet

    How come it took so long? I thought egg shiny odds haven't changed, Masuda method with Shiny Charm has been 1/512 for ages hasn't it?
  10. Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet

    That's why I always try and get a Pokémon that can just solo it. 90% of the 6+ star raids I've tried online just turn into shit shows since people pick the worst possible Pokémon!
  11. Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet

    Okay, my shiny boi Slowbro has beaten Greninja five times in a row now. Seems a lot more consistent than against Cinderace which most of the time would require someone with Intimidate on your team. Even with Nightslash crits in one fight and missing Stored Power three times in a row in another I never felt like I was in any serious danger of losing. To be honest I'm a little disappointed that I can just use the same Pokémon as I did against Cinderace!
  12. Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet

    Just managed to solo it with my Slowbro. I think luck plays a factor as I didn't get crit by Nightslash and only missed one Stored Power after he set up his 3x Double Team. Saying that though he didn't miss with any of his Hydro Pumps either He clears your stat changes on the 4th (or maybe 5th) turn so it's not as quick as Cinderace but with the use of Slack Off and a Shell Bell my HP only went into the red once.
  13. Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet

    It wouldn't have a super effective STAB move but what about a Water Absorb Vaporeon with Acid Armor / Calm Mind / Fake Tears / Stored Power? If Greninja ends up being a special attacker then it would be able to take more hits than Clodsire and the difference between Clodsire's attack and Vaporeon's special attack stats would go some way to making up for Stored Power not being STAB. After 7 turns (the same number of setup turns Slowbro needed to one shot Cinderace) Stored Power would be up to 260 and Greninja's special defense would be down 2 stages. Potential one shot territory?
  14. Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet

    I removed that final sentence when I realised Clodsire had Water Absorb Also, both Serebii and Bulbapedia say Water Shuriken is special? Bulbapedia says it changed to a special move in Gen 7.
