961-965 : Transcending the Plant Barrier

Svenyip on March 18, 2007

I knew, even when it was happening, that letting Garnet Weapon destroy the Yip Buster wasn't a good idea. All it did was cripple Svenyip's attack variety. So I needed to get that back to him.

Besides, assuming he's got a ‘full compliment’ of weapons now, there's at least six other attacks he can randomly pull out in the future without knowing exactly what they'll do.

I'd originally thought to saddle him with the Leaf Shield, Skull Barrier or Plant Barrier, as they all pretty much suck. But then I thought outside the box a bit … why not a “Bubble Barrier?” You can't get much suckier than a ‘defensive weapon’ that should burst and become useless if it encounters … well, anything. :)
