Bouken ni wa, Buki ga Hitsuyou da! ~Kodawari Rudy no Kajiya Gurashi~ - Vol. 1 Ch. 5.5

[MangaDex]

 

[nyappi]

This is likely the last of what will be included in Volume 1, which releases August 8th.
I hope you've enjoyed my translation so far. My forum title is "Group Leader," but it's really just me.
I love fantasy stories and video games, and I am a dungeon master from time to time.
I have tried my best to convey this rich world (and Rudy's awesome naming sense) in English.
We've hit the "Popular New Titles" list on Mangadex's front page, which is very cool. If you can, please support Mado by purchasing Volume 1.

My translation for the first half of Chapter 6 is on the way, and it seems the second half will release in Japan on August 9th.
I love this series, and will continue translating it as long as I can, but I'm not as fast as machine translations, so I appreciate everyone's patience as new chapters are released.

Nice-looking souvenir.

 

[Tds-PdV]

Ah yes, the keychain that is beloved by everyone who has (even a sliver of) a heart of a young boy.

 

[Saberwing]

Take as long as you need on getting your scanlations out.

What's with the japanese and these cool-ass dragon sword keychains

Good Tinkaton/Insane Dwarf Blacksmith

 

[Mangamoz]

In reality, little trinkets and doodads being sold as souvenirs has been a thing for thousands of years. But they never gained much popularity, since for most of human history, the concept of buying things just for fun was alien to most people outside of the rich. For the common farmer, a steady farm tool was far more urgent than having a cool necklace.

That and the fact that going around in ancient times with fancy looking stuff was a quick and easy way to get yourself killed by a robber. Still is today in some places of the world.

Take as much time as you need on the scans, this series deserves it!

Good Tinkaton/Insane Dwarf Blacksmith

Tinkaton is the best Pokémon in Violet/Scarlet. <3 Gotta love that Smash. It's so satisfying. (Also has one of the best defensive typing in Steel/fairy)

I used Pawmot, Tinkaton, Revaroom, Mismagius, Galade, and Kilowattrel to beat Paldea, since Iron Valiant is unobtainable before beating The Long Road Home, no trades for a fluttermane, and i was trying to stick as much to spanish pokemon as possible.

currently the team is Cincino, Tinkaton, Iron Valiant, Pawmot, Dragapult, and Gastrodon. Tinkaton is an absolute monster of a swords dance user. Revaroom is legitimately just Tinkaton but worse mechanically but also a mustang. Mismagius just needed her precursor and i didnt have it yet while Dragapult filled the Ghost Special Attacker better. IV was always intended. Kilowattrel is great on rain teams but im not running rain, and Cinccino is my favorite pokemon and Gastrodon is a god.

She's great. I love her. I used some cookie cutter mons for my run, Skeledirge, Kilowattrel, Tinkaton, Gardevoir (My second love), Clodsire (surprisingly tanky, can absorb water) and hmmm, I forget which water type. Probably Gyarados... I also used Arboliva, which is basically a tanky caster like Skeledirge. If you do get Gholdengo, make sure to abuse him, he's broken. Immunity to all statuses. >_> +Ghost/Steel is pretty darn good. His signature move hits pretty hard as well.
Highly recommend you get a Iron Hands for raids. Belly Drum + Close combat will one-shot most mons. Especially if you give him a Booster Energy. (You can give him Drain Punch and Thunder Punch for the rest of his moves)

i have a rule that at least 4 team members have to be In Region mons for the first run, and i have hated starters after gen 4. Like my Black 1 team is Hydreigon, Cinccino, Sawsbuck, Chandelure, Caracosta, Emolga.

it was real funny fighting Katy though with Pawmot, Tinkatink, Varoom, Misdreavus, Kirlia, and Wattrel though. just 3 x1/2 and 3 x1/4 resists against her.

i have a Tera Stellar IH with 252 HP/Att and Supercell Slam, Drain punch, Terablast, and Bellydrum for raids.

Cinccino's only potential is in using multi-hits attacks and fishing for crits. =/ Chandelure however is very solid, and I used one in Paldea as well. I've never really liked Emolga. Doesn't have much power. Good speed for support though. The Paldea dragon is also good, I hear, but I never really used him much. I didn't really like Varoom, maybe you could've subbed him for the version exclusive evolution of Charcadet? Or maybe a Scovillain with Sun support.

Rambo Cinccino is good, it doesnt need crit fishing because multihits are that strong, especially once gen 9 introduced Loaded Dice to give skill link with technician or other +50% power boosts. Id rather use it then Baxcalibur for a multihitter.

Emolga is difficult to play. its a positional tank with fast swaps, speed control, and flinch spam. literally it needs Air Slash, Volt Switch, Tailwind, and Roost to do its job, and it does its job better then Killowattrel or Zapdos would, since they are better pure wallbreakers rather then positional masters.

Chandelure in B/W is so late it barely has time to contribute and its bad in most fights its actually available for.

Revaroom is great, its just that it was introduced at the same time as Tinkaton and other then Spin Out into Gyroball, it doesnt exactly have anything special to it. Its fun but it literally never got sent out because Tinkaton just does its job better with half the attack stat.

Charcadet's evolution is abysmal. Scovillian is abysmal.

Don't laugh, but I actually considered using Toucannon a try in Alola. =/ He had some pretty good multi-hit moves. Chandelure in Paldea shows up in the first DLC, you can eventually catch its first form. I don't like Revaroom because Steel/Poison makes it take x4 to Ground types. =/ I try to avoid mons with a x4 weakness. Sure, it's great against fairies (and grass, I guess) but meh. There's only Ortega who specializes in those. Charcadet's fire evo is not bad. Fire and psychic? He has some bulk in that form. Scovillain with Chlorophyl, Trailblaze, and good fire/grass special attacks is a menace once it gets going.

I love this series, and will continue translating it as long as I can, but I'm not as fast as machine translations, so I appreciate everyone's patience as new chapters are released.

it's shouldn't be your privilege for our patience, it's our privilege to have these translations in the first place (not to mention the high quality)

 

[fight2live]

i'd buy that tiny dragon sword in a heartbeat

 

[Grimmycoffee]

Oh, that's a real thing ain't it? I think I saw it on Bocchi once.

 

[Jelly_Storm]

Ah... time for me to member this in about a year's time and not be able to remember the name and can't find it for some reason...
