    That reminds me, wen i used the old save editor i got myself every item. There was an item "summon" (i would need to check the name) using that did allow everyone to call an Aeon.
    If you gave Aoens the item command, they could summon an Aeon as well. Kinda glitchy but very funny.

    Interestingly there is another Auroch called Atropus or Ulua Aurochs which I think is an Australian fish that looks like a large silver scale. I have no idea why it's both the name of a fish and an extinct cattle species, but naming conventions are complicated and amusing like that.

    I started doing one of these a while ago but stopped. I did find that when getting to Shiva, it became much easier. This is due to Shiva having the highest natural speed of any summon (Ixion is close behind) and she absorbs ice so you don't have to teach her any healing spells. Her high natural speed means she often gets 2 attacks to the enemy's one without having to use a delay attack.

    I understand why you skipped the last 2 aeons, but I'm curious what you would have named them if you had gotten them for this run. I'm not sure what would fit for Anima, but my choices for the Sisters would have been Sandy=Scizor, Cindy=Ledian and Mindy=Vespiquen. I know you were going with Gen 1 names (ignoring the image of Tyrogue you used to rep Yojimbo on the summon/death counts), but Sandy is red, not green and I always thought of Mindy as a wasp as opposed to the bee she was supposed to be.

    • @RiverPebbles
      @RiverPebbles  3 місяці тому +4

      Anima would probably have been Gengar, for the ghosty aesthetic.
      And the Sisters would all have been the bugs: Beedrill, Butterfree, and Pinsir. I don't know which would have embodied which, but I want to assume Butterfree would have been Mindy, Beedrill beeing Sandy, and Pinsir being Cindy

      @RiverPebbles  Місяць тому +2

      I think I said something in another comment/comment thread but I could be wrong.
      Can't do Anima because of the optional underwater fight with Geosgano, which doesn't allow summoning. And I can't do the Magus Sisters because that requires capturing monsters with the Monster Arena "Capture" Weapons and I can't use those with Aeons. People have said I should have allowed capturing because that's what Pokemon is all about, but I didn't want to add that in the rules when I was going through the challenge, so I might go through again and do a similar challenge involving capturing things, but that's relatively low on my list.
      I'm not trying to sound like I have a "I'm right and you're wrong" attitude, but just trying to explain and answer this again for those who may not have seen the other comment(s) I made. Hope it helps!
