Here, Lucca pulls out the Gate Key and activates the Time Gate, sending them to the year 2300 A.D and escaping any harm. They are backed into a small clearing, supposedly trapped. The party then returns through the forest, heading for Truce Canyon and the Present Crono takes Marle back to the castle by way of the forest.Ī few sequences later, Crono is escaping from his execution Crono, Marle, and Lucca are cornered almost immediately after entering the forest. After acquiring Lucca, Crono returns through the forest and heads for the Cathedral after saving the Queen the party is taken straight back to the castle, bypassing the forest altogether. The next time the player would visit the forest is in the year 600 A.D, following the trail of Marle after she was mistaken for Queen Leene. Paralysis breaks very quickly, sleep tends to last longer even when you hit things, and poison never wears off.The player can enter the forest from the onset of the game in the Present however, Crono cannot enter the castle itself. Tauros one of the best damaging normals by lowering defense then multihitting, But Ekans and Koffing are great for being able to sleep and poison. Onix seems the best rock combining boosted defense with pebble attack. Tentacool can be used on any non-electric monster since the heal is so strong (Staryu has a weaker heal that might sleep), but Omanyte is a good water to have because of seduction (saves fanart for monsters you can't click). Attacks that both hurt AND condition seem much better than ones that just cause conditions. Defense can also be raised and lowered outside of the scared and angry status.Įvery monster gets two attacks, At least one hurting attack and another which might hurt and/or cause a status. There's noticeably no Ground (became Rock), Poison, Bug, Fighting, Flying types, maybe Psychic will show up with next patch, or they'll be normal too?Ĭonditions inflict able include Paralysis, Sleep, Poison (physical trio), Horny, Scared, and Angry (mental trio). Rock kills Elect, Elect kills water, Water kills I presume Fire, Fire kills Grass, and Grass kills rock.

Matching type makes you immune to any side effects of the attack but damage is same (Omanyte cannot make water creatures horny), while damage is increased if weakness is exploited. All attacks take on the parent creatures type, even things like scratch becomes lightning elemental, though some like CUT specifically have their own type (fire to kill grass). What would be the best forum to discuss the 'mechanics' of the pokemon- here or elsewhere? I'm looking forward to seeing how combat evolves.įrom what I've observed, we have types Normal, Rock, Grass, Water, Electric.
