Yeah he ' s dead ! Count him out anyway ! <| sep |> The Pokmon games have been extremely easy since gen 3 . But this game has sort of a difficulty spike towards the end . The failsafe is your team is very easy to level . Sam ' s starter was actually 4 levels overleveled when he fought this boss . Sam ' s problem was he was trying to brute force his way through this boss when it just kept healing . What he needed to do was use his weaker Pokmon to use status moves on it then let his starter clean up and it would be easy . <| sep |> I just try my best to lead by example <| sep |> It ' s okay for a first time watch . It just doesn ' t do the same kind of dialogue that asp does , and I don ' t think they get the nuance of the characters as well , so the story plays out Ina slightly different way .
