The Wall Breaker – Competitive Pokémon Guide

The Wall Breaker exists to clear the way for your sweepers. There are a few different schools of thought in regards to wall breakers, as often they aren’t actually needed. Your physical sweeper can take out their special wall, and your special sweeper can take out their physical wall. Using your sweepers to cover each other is a valid strategy, however you run the risk of your sweepers taking unnecessary damage or status ailments that could potentially ruin your momentum in the game and cost you the match.

This is why I recommend a mixed sweeper to take up one slot and act as a counter to both of your opponents walls. Of course depending on what walls your opponent actually uses your mixed wall breaker could be more or less useful as a counter, however abilities exist for a reason.

A good mixed attacker such as Mega Charizard or Mega-Metagross who have speed, reliable bulk, attacking power and the ability tough claws can do a lot of damage physically and have some good special attacks to handle both types of wall. They do both make fantastic wall breakers, as does Mega Charizard Y who simply hits so hard with special attacks that even special walls aren’t able to stand up to its power.

The downside of using a mixed wall breaker is that you usually have to prioritise one stat over the other meaning that the wall breaker is always going to be more efficient and disposing of one wall than the other.

That’s why Pokémon like Gardevoir are so useful, especially now with its new fairy typing and mega evolution, Gardevoir not only does amazing damage with hyper voice (which is retyped, boosted in power and gains a same type attack boost thanks to it’s ability Pixilate) but also has access to psyshock, a fantastic special move that calculates damage using your opponent’s defence stat rather than their special defence, making it a physically damaging special attack.

Personally I would recommend any of these Pokémon as a wall breaker but there are plenty more that work well. It’s just a matter of finding which one works best with your team.

However despite how well built your team is, Pokémon will faint in battle. That’s why it’s important to make your opponent pay for it. Join me next time.

ReFantazio Takes a Different Approach to Romance, Setting Itself Apart from the Persona Games

Atlus’ highly anticipated RPG, Metaphor: ReFantazio, appears to incorporate familiar systems reminiscent of the developer’s acclaimed Persona series. The game features turn-based battles that heavily rely on exploiting enemy weaknesses. Additionally, players have the ability to summon warrior spirits during combat. However, the most significant aspect of this game, which will be discussed in this article, is the bonding system. Through this system, players can spend time with important characters and gain deeper insights into their personalities and stories.

In contrast to the Persona games, the bonding system ends at that point. Unfortunately, players will be unable to pursue romantic relationships with their beloved waifus, which may come as a disappointment to those who have developed strong feelings for Hulkenberg, the party’s charismatic red-haired elven knight.

According to Siliconera, the absence of romance came up during a recent question and answer session. Atlus emphasized the continued opportunity to develop meaningful relationships with your allies while also introducing additional narratives through substories. In addition, familiarizing yourself with the supporting characters will grant you access to new archetypes, which serve as the game’s character classes.

In the Persona games, romance is not obligatory; rather, it serves as a means to customize your playthrough. However, it is quite unexpected that Metaphor has chosen not to pursue such a venture, considering the significant amount of discussion it typically generates!

Were you anticipating any romantic elements in Metaphor? If you’re not satisfied with your pre-order, feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section below.

It appears that many

are eagerly anticipating the launch of the highly anticipated PS5 exclusive, Stellar Blade. Shift Up, the developer, has shared a lengthy video showcasing the “secrets” found in the physical box of the game for PS5. From what we can gather, these secrets include a reversible cover/dust jacket and a download code for cosmetic items.

We must clarify that while we do appreciate the variant cover, it may be more appealing than the game’s standard art. However, it is not something we would typically classify as a “secret.”. However, what’s interesting is that Shift Up has confirmed through the comments section that this will be the case in all regions. Additionally, the visually striking action RPG will remain uncensored worldwide.

It’s refreshing to witness a developer going the extra mile for physical collectors, and it’s evident that the developer is determined to leave a favorable mark in the console realm. Stellar Blade is set to make its highly anticipated debut this Friday, April 26th, exclusively on the PS5.
