Ongoing Snowy's Monotype Shield Challenge: The Discussion Thread

[NMLewis]

I feel it was more "ME's puns are infinitely better than these." That's how I interpreted it.

What a wipe out... -_-

What a wipe out... -_-

This episode and the one that follows it are some of the most fun I've had in a pokemon game.

This episode and the one that follows it are some of the most fun I've had in a pokemon game.

it's funny. you're taking on a Water type Gym Leader this week, and I'll be taking on a Water type Gym Leader next week.
Meanwhile, I took out a Fighting type Gym Leader last week, and NMLewis should be taking out a Fighting type Gym Leader this week.

I had a whale of a time with this gym. My strategy was a little fishy, but at least I didn't clam up.

.... I'll go away now and let you watch the episode.

Another episode has arrived!

 

[Maniacal Engineer]

Third Gym Badge already? Feels like forever until he got his first badge, and now it’s every other episode.

Yeah, it’s a bit ridiculous, as Finnish pointed out.

And after that, you start getting Badges in rapid fire. Talk about pacing issues...

 

[Maniacal Engineer]

There’s another thing that annoys me.
The game makes a “big deal” about how Kabu is supposed to be the first tough Gym Leader and how he makes his Challenge especially difficult as a result.

Just one problem. It is, literally, impossible to fail his challenge.
I mean, it’s difficult or impossible to fail some of the other challenges, but this one is literally impossible, and yet, the game points out how a lot of Challengers lose during Kabu’s Challenge.
What nonsense.

Aka Snowy learns wasting time isn't always counter productive.

 

[Maniacal Engineer]

I mean, the Wild Area is a massive part of the new games, so exploring it and figuring out some of the mechanics isn't a bad thing.

 

[Maniacal Engineer]

Speaking of the Wild Area, here’s another episode:

Snowy sticks his head into more Pokemon dens. Will he ever learn not to do that?

Probably not.

 

[Maniacal Engineer]

Good. Because that's a ridiculous lesson to learn. Sticking your head into Pokemon dens is actually smart.

 

[Maniacal Engineer]

Sorry I'm a little off the ball here. New episode dropped about 11 hours ago.
