One of the great metagame shakers in Ubers, Rayquaza affects and is affected by several statistical trends: with a single turn of setup Rayquaza can unleash serious devastation on an opposing team a turn it can easily be given by Wobbuffet ; however, it can be checked without too much difficulty depending on whether it chooses to set up with Swords Dance or Dragon Dance.
Rayquaza usage overall has dropped slightly, as the metagame saw a sharp increase in the number of Lugia hurting Swords Dance Rayquaza even as the number of Palkia remained high hurting Dragon Dance Rayquaza.
Kyogre is likely the most common teammate for two reasons: its high usage in general, and its resistance to Ice moves, meaning that Kyogre can easily switch into Lugia if it tries to stop Rayquaza. Groudon may seem like an odd teammate for Rayquaza, but Groudon has access to Stealth Rock, a vital condition for Rayquaza to sweep.
Groudon can also lure in Lugia, then cripple it with Toxic. Darkrai and Mewtwo are top partners for Rayquaza due to their ability to set up on Lugia, Swords Dance Rayquaza's nemesis. Finally, Dialga is able to use Stealth Rock, which is reason enough for it to be a partner. Mewtwo usage, which increased noticeably from April to May, has also seen some interesting shifts.
Rayquaza and Groudon are top teammates with Mewtwo for good reason. Mewtwo is also faster than Shaymin-S; thus it can destroy it with Ice Beam before it attempts to kill Groudon. Palkia is most likely in the number four spot due to its ability to take on Choice Specs Kyogre, who gives Mewtwo serious problems if Mewtwo is not carrying Thunder or Grass Knot.
Top Five Teammates: Groudon Deoxys-S is easily the most dominant lead in the Ubers metagame, used more than twice as frequently as the second most common lead Darkrai and more than the second and third most common leads combined.
Nearly all Deoxys-S in May ran essentially the same set, electing to set up Stealth Rock and Spikes while running max speed and Taunt in an attempt to shut down opposing Deoxys-S. There were only Deoxys-S used that were not leads, thus its non-lead usage would be between Gyarados number 51 and Electivire number 52!
Groudon, Rayquaza, and Darkrai are popular teammates for Deoxys-S simply because Deoxys-S's entry hazards are a huge help to them. Deoxys-S does not help Palkia and Kyogre nearly as much, thus it is likely that Palkia and Kyogre are common teammates simply because of their high usage in Ubers. Lugia benefitted substantially in May from a decline in Wobbuffet usage, since Lugia is one of Wobbuffet's most common targets on which to set up.
As mentioned previously, Lugia is being mostly used as a check to Groudon and Rayquaza, and its top five teammates prove it. Darkrai provides hardly any support for Lugia at all and vice-versa, so overall usage is most likely the only reason Darkrai is often used with Lugia. These problems are compounded by the fact that more Wobbuffet are Calm than Bold, making Garchomp harder for Wobbuffet to revenge kill than Palkia or Dialga.
Kyogre is Garchomp's number one partner because they cover each others' weaknesses well. Kyogre covers Garchomp's Ice weakness, while Garchomp is immune to the many Thunders aimed at Kyogre. Dialga is likely used because of its ability to easily switch into Lugia's Ice Beams, and either do a severe amount of damage with Thunder or cripple Lugia with Toxic or Thunder Wave. Palkia's usage with Garchomp is probably high because of Garchomp's inability to switch into Kyogre's Water Spouts.
Darkrai can make Lugia's life miserable, which is important as Choice Scarf Garchomp can be easily walled by it. With good typing for Ubers, a reliable priority move, and STAB U-Turn, Scizor is a good fit on most Ubers teams; although its slight decline in usage is directly related to recent trends in the metagame that work against it.
Scizor is hurt somewhat by the recent increase in Lugia, as it cannot do much damage to Lugia before Lugia phazes it, building up damage from Stealth Rock and possibly Spikes; it is also kept in check by the prevalence of Groudon, Giratina, and Forretress.
In May there was a Scizor's number one teammate is Kyogre, likely because Kyogre can easily switch into the many Fire attacks aimed at Scizor. Scizor can also destroy Latias with Pursuit, allowing Kyogre to have a much easier time sweeping.
Palkia is in a similar position, only it can also save Scizor from Kyogre's deadly Water attacks. Dialga is threaten by Superpower, while Scizor can use U-turn to scout the next switch-in on Palkia. Groudon not only has access to Stealth Rock, but it also helps Scizor take Water attacks from Palkia much more easily thanks to the sunlight. Bulk Up Dialga has an easy time setting up on Scizor that either lack Superpower or are locked into Bullet Punch, thus Groudon can easily solve that problem.
However, it is noteworthy that Lugia and Wobbuffet tend to be used in distinctly diffent styles of teams; Lugia is defensively-minded and geared toward longer battles, whereas Wobbuffet is used to set up high-powered sweepers and encourage shorter battles. The Ubers metagame seems to have shifted in May to a more defensively-minded mentality, with Groudon, Rayquaza and Darkrai all declining in usage, and this hurts Wobbuffet's usage, while ironically making Wobbuffet all the more valuable.
Wobbuffet can also be used directly as a "wallbreaker", by using Tickle to weaken walls to the point where they can be KOed by Pursuit from the likes of Tyranitar and Scizor. Although Deoxys-S does not directly benefit Wobbuffet, it is a common teammate because Deoxys-S helps out other popular teammates for Wobbuffet.
Kyogre is likely a top teammate due to its high usage, as it does not benefit from Wobbuffet's support nearly as much as sweepers such as Rayquaza and Darkrai. Fuji to save Ryu. Ryu himself will give you the Thousand-Fold Katana a sword exclusively for Erik , but speaking to Miko will get you the Crucible Key, allowing you to access the legendary forge. Winning the horse race is pretty easy--just make sure to always be dashing and hitting jumps to win.
Additional pieces can be grabbed from The Battleground, on the bottom floor. The first ingredient down, four more to go. To get the Sword of Kings, go to Hotto and find the man outside the item shop near the stairs to the shrine. Check the map above for a more exact location.
You can sell him a piece of Oricalchum read the section on the ore above if you need more for the smith to make his ultimate sword. I found enough to fill all of the slots in my sword and armor, but I was not able to experiment enough with combining them to create the special gems.
When a new game is started, one has the choice of three levels of difficulty. I chose the default "normal" level. A fourth difficulty level called "nightmare" can be unlocked by beating the game once.
Within seconds of exiting the village gates, I confronted a few ripe-smelling zombies. Sensing an easy kill, I ran in, wildly tapping the mouse button, eagerly awaiting my first kill. Three zombie swipes later, I was dead. Death does not penalize the player too badly. Upon demise, the hero is regenerated in the nearest village with all equipment intact, except for the gold that remains lying on the battlefield.
It's easy enough to go back and pick it up, and it's satisfying to take revenge on the monster that had the audacity to kill you. The smart player will make good use of the shield and dodge buttons when confronting the enemy, as well as not getting bombarded with enemies on all sides, which is easier said than done! The difficulty balance could have been better.
It always seemed like the computer was two steps ahead of me in power of attacks, etc. Even raising my level like crazy didn't equate to being able to lay the smackdown on my foes.
Anytime three or more bad guys surrounded me, I was toast unless I was able to run away, pump in the health potions, or use a super move. Don't even get me started on the boss fights! There are lots of minibosses to battle with, and they are almost always brutally hard to kill. I like the way Pixel Studio tried to give all of the NPCs backstories, talking to the player about their past lives and how they all relate to each other.
It was confusing at times, but I appreciate the effort in trying to draw me deeper into the game world. The variety of monsters is pretty impressive. Kudos to the art team for thinking up some unique designs. The AI of the computer opponents is mixed. Some of the monsters have a pack mentality where they will surround and coordinate their attacks on all sides, which is very evil indeed. Other times, I could run up and start hacking away at a creature while its cohorts just looked on.
The back of the box boasts over hours of gameplay, and with three different characters to play, I believe it.
