[11/1/2015 11:53:56 PM] Marty Balmer: Even Shiftry, the piece of crap that he was before we rescued him, rescued Jumpluff in the Silent Chasm.

[11/1/2015 11:54:15 PM] Marty Balmer: We never once see Alakazam's team complete a rescue throughout the entire game.

[Oronoco]

^^^^This definitely made my day.

[TheDreamingHawk]

I still think Officer Magnezone is worse IMO as he awful at his job. Arresting the wrong people (Armaldo), not doing anything when folks are clearly in danger (Like the Dusknoir kidnapping. Do they go on an epic search across the continent for you guys? No, they just think he's being a nice guy and leave it sit which is completely stupid), and overall being useless while having you do all the work. At the VERY least Team ACT tried doing something and tried doing things by themselves, even if they failed and if it made me still mad you couldn't fight them in the end. Officer Magnezone just seems to be unsure on how to do his job. Sure, he sends the outlaws you capture to jail, but the fact you are doing the work for him along with how he doesn't seem to be doing anything himself makes him seem like he's pretty useless. Just my two cents on the matter.

[Altissimo]

I could have sworn Armaldo was a legit criminal tho

[Nebbles]

He was, actually. Pretty sure he was.

[TheDreamingHawk]

Still he at least had a heart and a personality that could have helped made up for his past actions, and he grew over the course of the special episode. He was nowhere near as disturbing or "evil" as Drowzee IMO

[InsigTurtle]

But didn't Drowzee make up for his actions in a way by helping out with the nightmare business in the aftergame?

He still committed a crime. It kind of seems like you're grasping at straws to prove why Magnezone's judgment is horrid at this point tbh

[TheDreamingHawk]

He did, although personally I feel that it didn't develop him as a character as much as Armaldo did in the second special episode, despite the ironic fact that Drowzee got let out for good behavior while Armaldo didn't for some unexplained reason. We knew what Drowzee was doing wrong, as the two heroes confront him for the purpose of stopping him from harming Azurill. All we knew about Armaldo's past was that he's a dangerous outlaw with a bad reputation, but it never went into detail on why he had that reputation, which seemed to me like a missed opportunity TBH...  It made the ending of that special episode all the more sad, which while probably intended by the game developers just made me dislike Officer Magnezone in that particular instance.

[Nebbles]

Okay, but here's a thought - do we KNOW Magnezone didn't go on a search for you and your partner? We have no idea what happened back in that timeline when you're dragged to the future. We have zero idea of what went on, I assume they have been searching for a good while. We still don't know how long you two were gone and all, yeah, but it's fair to give Magnezone credit.
