Nah, Crobat is legit good. More like a Golbat.
Personally, I think it sounds like a random note you find in a resident evil game, or something on a terminal in a vault in fallout
Haven't we been fighting against Darwinian evolution for a while now? I should be dead if it depended on my shitty body.
A sentence I expect to read on a computer terminal in a lab overrun by Those Things [TM]
Not Darwins just evolution. Evolution doesn't control anything, it just is. This I just as dub as saying gravity won't control humans because we can fly. It's still there even if humans fight against it.
Every living is "controlled" by evolution. Adding in gene therapy or artificial selection does not mean evolution goes away
He better keep his head down, a Demon Cyborg will level his House of Evolution.
I wouldn't mind him destroying my house
You must choose between the Cyber Demon buns of steel or the Cacodemon's cacussy.
Funny, I don't feel controlled. I mean I know I am by the fundamental laws of nature, but that's a given. These guys just wanna play god but don't wanna say it.
He’s known for using gene splicing on babies without consulting anyone in the scientific community first and was later found guilty of illegal practice of medicine. So, yeah lol
Holy smokes, well then.
Well here I came to imply that he might be a Nazi...
Honestly I've always been torn on this. We have an ethical duty to the generations to come. If we can insert genes to block genetic diseases and make people resistant to bacterial/viral disease we absolutely should.
However, I don't think we can be trusted with this technology. It will be used to serve vain and racist ideologies. Also if we get into an arms race with the natural order we have to include every human. If we make People resistant to disease then those organisms will evolve to be more infectious. If not everyone has been altered to be more resistant then those without will be at risk. Currently this type of tech will only be used to benefit the wealthy.
Of course I guess that's the issue with all human progress, when have we ever been ready to utilize our technologies for the greater good?
What is the greater good though, just keep hurtling our monkey bodies through the cosmos as far as we can, possibly with the help of robots? I think we need to ask ourselves a lot of questions about the technology we use to heal people. As it is right now it's a very classist and racist system of who gets the current technology. I don't see it getting particularly better in the future, and with even more advanced technology, then yes you are going to further drive a wedge between the people who live 160 years and the people who live 50 years.
I forget which of the originals it was from ... It wasn't a romhack, it was OG like maybe yellow. But if you walk away from prof when he offers you the original 3 Pokemons, you have the option to choose Pikachu or prevent the Epstein class from ever existing.
Is that supposed to be an insult? Golbat I would understand. You gotta be a decent person to have a Crobat.
Things you find in a audio recorder in Bioshock
Things were so much easier before this Darwin guy invented evolution.
I guarantee if you smash people over the head with an Everstone hard enough, it will prevent them evolving. It will also prevent them from living.
I bet this guy wouldn't even get the boss music. Just the regular encounter music.
What is a level 44 Crobat?
Nice.
So... is it any good?
No, not particularly. But a lot of pokemon that are lesser used in the main game end up being great in pvp or multi person raids. That said, I do not think I have ever used a crobat.
It's fine, but the kind of thing a henchman in the middle-late part of the game might have. Level 100 is the max, end of game fights are around 70 maybe. Most trainers say someone before and after you fight them. The baddies can get pretty grandiose even when their name is something like "Scientist ♂️" and they're in a room with 4-5 similar NPCs
thank you for asking the real questions people are afraid to ask
Has a Pokemon game ever mentioned Darwin?
