#and b) also have later pokemon on the team to RE-set weather if you cleared it

ripppppp i had a really good nuzlocke attempt of inclement emerald just wipe on victory road :/ it was only my 4th attempt tho, first one to get past watson but made it thru most of the game without issue. it FELT like i had a ton of deaths but also this game gives you sooo many encounters that i didn't feel too restricted by them. but i let this wipe just be a standard wipe instead of running it back with the many pokemon left in my box because I know i'm at a tipping point where i could probably limp through victory road but would definitely wipe at the E4.
next time i get back here i'm gonna look up docs for victory road trainers because they're basically like bosses with megas... (I had been using docs for the boss battles, but they don't have em for the non 'boss' trainers, unlike radical red... radical red definitely spoiled me with great QOL ANDDD really detailed and nicely laid out docs... but I saw some player-compiled docs for all trainers which I'll use if/when i get back here... : ' ) )
#i do enjoy this romhack so far#even if i often have the unfair feeling of 'oh radred made this particular feature just a little bit better'#it feels Nicer than radred in terms of difficulty tho#like it's still hard don't get me wrong but it gives you a few more tools to help get around tough battles#or maybe i just got lucky but like#there's pretty good access to weather moves AND weather abilities which help trivialize many of the weather themed bosses#in radred i feel like if they had weather bosses they would a) limit your access to weather options#and b) also have later pokemon on the team to RE-set weather if you cleared it#but none of the weather teams in IE (so far) had secondary weather setters#drizzle pelipper is also possible to guarantee bc it's on enough routes#that thing made all the team magma bosses so much easier#but yeah i'm a little irked by the VR trainers not being included in the official documentation#they're definitely miniboss caliber#they have megas!!!#pokemon sp
