Pokémon Reborn: Mono Pikaclones vs. Anna Gauntlet
1Reborn Episode 19 has been out for a few months now, and finally, the end of my 3 year journey comes to an end. My final pikaclone run has been finished.
I am happy
I am done
But.. I am also,
sad.
I beat this battle roughly a month ago, and since then I've actually been a little..
idk about it.
I'm not a fan of baton pass or cheese in general.. and this just doesn't feel like the epic finale that I envisioned.
I'm relieved to have it concluded; 3 years of my live, tied with a bow on top.. but it still doesn't feel rewarding that this is how it ended.
it wasn't the pikaclones that beat this, it was a stupid strategy from a stupid move.
It wasn't their victory; it was just another W for baton pass, and in my eyes, an L to me.
I don't see this being done another way, but.. I hope that one day, I will wake up, shine in my eye, thinking "WAIT. THAT'S IT.", and close it for good.
My next goal, if there is one, is to try out Lin. I don't think it's doable, but I might try it. I've done calcs here and there, and there might be some potential.. only time will tell.
Until then, this will taint my memory of what would have been an amazing victory - it FINALLY being over, my beloved prison unlocked, my person freed from the chains of pikaclones.. but I'm left feeling empty.
But, maybe some day, it will happen, and I can look back at this video and think "Yes.. I was better than this, and I've improved even more."
Until then,
this is the end of Pikaclones. 3 years in the making, finally over. No redos. No new runs.
This is it.
And..
I was able to do it. Even if it wasn't how I wanted it.
