★Devolution Battle Royale!★

[Bulbasaur]

Well, you still have a shot at it... provided you don't get paired up with a ghost type...

Yeah, but I wanted to be the first. XD

Neo was actually first if I remember right. Going from Oddish to Bellossom. I just got incredibly lucky as a Pichu xD

Remember, keep your hands to yourself at all times... or no cookies!

MASTER RNG, surrounded by dozens of cats, yanks in...

ARANDOMTOOL as Mega Sableye and NOBLEJANOBII as Mega Houndoom to the battlefield!
@ARandomTool @Noblejanobii

The GLITTERING COIN OF TACTICAL COMBAT WOMBATS has declared NOBLEJANOBII strikes first!

TURN 1
NOBLEJANOBII starts things off with Psybeam! But then she wakes up from the daydream.
ARANDOMTOOL begins with Mach Punch! But he's not crazy about strapping rockets to his wrist.

TURN 2
NOBLEJANOBII tries Lock-On! She chains up her cabinet to keep her valuables safe!
ARANDOMTOOL unleashes Milk Drink! But he only takes 2%, not whole.

TURN 3
NOBLEJANOBII attacks with Substitute! It has NO EFFECT on ARANDOMTOOL, causing NOBLEJANOBII to go into PRIMAL RAGE MODE!

ARANDOMTOOL WINS!

Step aside, coffee, this is a job for alcohol!

Tool, you can devolve Noble or wheel her. And congratulations on becoming the New England Patriots of DBR. :P

Oh this was so not far. I actually liked this sig too

Don’t worry. You can totally get back at anyone that thinks ghost types will have an advantage in DBR2. Cause if they do.....heheheheh, well. They’re in for a nice surprise.

Yeah not gonna lie I am actually legit bummed out because I was actually really looking forward to the Houndoom line with my theme and no master of disaster token is gonna turn this frown upside down. But oh well. :/

Mmm, at this point, consider DBR1 a Beta and this is just a debugging run due to how bad the ghost type situation is. DBR2 will be the real deal because it encompasses the refinement of what was observed in this version and there will be plenty of checks and balances to deal with this issue the game has been having. Everything will have an answer and an appropriate counter if you play your cards right. Plus I think the team play will be a heck of a lot more interesting.

I'm with you, I'm bummed as well because everything about DBR1 was working so beautifully for months but then this happened. One, darn development oversight and bam, we've got this going.

I'll talk it over with Chakra since he's a co-developer, but right now I'm considering the following:

• Force the two ghost types (ARandomTool as Mega Sableye and arnisd as Gengar) to have to battle only each other each season until either the Mega Sableye + Spiritomb combo that ARandomTool has is eliminated or the Gengar line that arnisd has is eliminated).
• Whoever survives between the two of them has to change out their remaining Pokemon stages for something else that is NOT a ghost type. The benefit is they get to choose just about anything to go into the final stages of the game, but they're left dueling each other until one of them goes down.

Yeah, desperate times call for desperate measures. I think this is really the only way to quarantine the mess but still keep the game going.

[ARandomTool]

Ugh, deleting your own post on accident is healthy.

So is losing max evolutions to the Wheels! Spin those chaos rollers, Master RNGsus!

[Noblejanobii]

Yeah I’m sure you guys are working it out for the next season so it won’t be an issue.

I am in favor of the quarantine solution though. While it was a smart strategy on their part it’s really killing the game for the rest of us.

[ARandomTool]

I agree with quarantine, as I do feel kinda dirty. And since it's not too late, and you have a point about how awesome the theme + 'Mon combo is, I'm changing to a Devolve rather than a Wheel. I have my Wheel Badge.
