    Having moxie rather than intimidate was absolutely MASSIVE for you this run. Had you gotten intimidate (normally a great ability, but far less so in a solo run) youd have had a significantly harder time.

    • @dustypaladin9216
      @dustypaladin9216 Рік тому +20

      yeah even in normal gameplay moxie is a really op ability, one of the best in the game. for solo runs it is way better, making it possibly the best ability you could have.

    • @ladyakkyn
      @ladyakkyn Рік тому +3

      It's even more than you think. Having Intimidate activate at the start of each battle will slow down grinding SO much. Seriously. I've been playing through this same game with only not-very-effective moves. Having an extra line of text per battle slows down level grinding so much.

    I'm just picturing Sandile bringing out a beach chair with umbrella for MDB, and handing him a drink with a tiny paper umbrella and straw as he sits down while going "You just relax, I'll take care of things today." And then going off screen and sounds of Sandile just absolutely annihilating the game drift over while MDB gets to enjoy himself.

    If you want to try Sandile in Gen 1, maybe take a look at the Unova Red ROM, it replaces the usual Gen 1 pokemon with Gen 5 pokemon, whether it works with the Universal Pokemon Randomizer I'm not sure though.

    This video is a prime example of how damn good Moxie is. That's genuinely why I believe you had a much easier time in this run, say for a few rough spots. Like, there was rarely any rough spots in this run because of Moxie. If you had Intimidate, then you would have a rough time in the run.

      Which reminds me. I did a Porygon run in Pokemon Black months ago. And even though I failed to make it through the post-game I actually took Porygon though the main story and beat the game but even though I'll call that a successful run I think I might revisit the run again in the future with better EV training so I can try to retry the post-game along with a few runs I already beat such as White 2 with only a Metagross and Shield with only one Diglett since I didn't EV train much in any of those runs.

    As a tip, when needing to grind in gen 5, it is ALWAYS worth it to search for shaking grass for Audino. Even the amount of time it will take to get a shaking patch, as well as the other Pokemon that can spawn, are worth slogging through in order to the get the exp yields from Audino.

    @Gobl_943 Рік тому +1

    Moxie is an incredible ability. If you have a strong move like Earthquake or the elemental Fang moves, even the weakest of Pokémon can be strong. If you think that's a crazy ability, Pure Power and Huge Power are crazier abilities than Moxie. Pure Power/Huge Power doubles your base Attack. So Pokemon with low Attack stats and become powerhouses. The Meditite line and Marill line are great examples. So it feels like a Meditite solo run could be out since it's such an incredible ability.

    I never used the sandile line until doing a Wonderlocke on Pokémon Y. Since then, Krookodile has become one of my favorites!

    Moxie really is awesome for your one pokemon challenges. It's fun in Pokemon Conquest too!

    I've been thinking of this for awhile now. To do a challenge run with only two pokemon in total. Which includes in your party and boxes combined. With the ability to release at the nearest convenient time possible should more than two exist.
    Thought it might interest on this channel.
