the DLC stories are pretty good too if you decide to get it, esp blueberry academy if you want some tougher fights

unfortunately 😢

Yep, pretty much! Also our Paradox 'mons, which btw if you need them lmk and I can catch some spares for you. The only ones I can't do anything about permanently are the DLC exclusive two, Koraidon and Walking Wake which reruns as a raid, but only 1 per save file (which is mean and rude)

Yeap, just Sada wants to go to the past instead

That music though is so fucking good

Yeah... idr who i had trouble with if anyone because i think i had made a pretty solid team with good defensives like togekiss and dusknoir, but it was definitely and uphill battle that's for sure. Very satisfying even though it's hard as hell getting ANY evolutions that weren't in DP

I think mostly because revaroom itself is EXTREMELY fast, it was an evolved pokemon even on the dark type one, and they were mono-element trainers that used moves and abilities that covered their weaknesses, like the drought torkoal. so if you were too slow, you're probably getting slapped

I wouldn't call "all the eeveelutions" a smart lineup but clavell did have a more rounded lineup mostly bcs starter locked so the rest of the team changed depending on that (unlike leon in swsh who would could kneecap by giving him cinderace AND his charizard. teehee ♥)
and yeah team star was tough

made an attempt. Like her lineup could work if it was done correctly! But they didn't want to make The opener they made her opener and fumbled when her AI would use the revenge killer. Gogoat can be reasonably fast and even Avalugg could be threatening against the right thing! it's just sad

BDSP's E4 I think did actually have perfect IVs and held items plus their AI was smarter. don't quote me, I heard that from somewhere but I don't remember where. Even I struggled a little and I prepared my team specifically FOR that E4.
I don't mind ScarVi's being easier but I wish they at least

being 4x weak to fighting does that but if it was fast enough, no one would survive. It would have made Geeta nearly as threatening as Cynthia imo, combined with the toxic spikes from glimmora. but instead we got her acting stupid with her lineup order 😭

the champion would have been so much more threatening if she always used Kinggambit last and started with Glimmora..

Every buff citrinne or micaiah gets, he gets stupider and the text smaller
