Let’s have a little chat in the comments below! I have honestly been way too busy offline to enjoy much of the latest Pokémon titles and am about to face Olivia now. I’ve also been going slower because I turned the Exp. Share off as soon as I got it (although I’m reconsidering its use now…).
Raves, rants about the games? Try not to say anything about the plot itself though!
<3 PJ
I am currently on the quest to catch all Ultra Beasts, after that I think I am going to consider wardrobe choices, battle and capture items, and continue my trek to the battle tree.
Already finished the main story, E4 and UB quest. Seriously the best Pokémon games and some of the best 3DS games of all time. I adore these games and the story and the characters and the Pokémon and just just, aaaaaahhh it’s so good. It has my favorite dex since Platinum and one of the best characters (well my favorite) ever Lillie. Just a 10/10 I love them so much
Although, I never played the game, I saw videos. I would give a 7.9/10. Gen IV and V a perfect 10/10 and Gen VI a 8.9/10. If this Gen were to win my heart, they need another Pokemon Mystery Dungeon game for this generation with Cosmog as the final boss of the main story.
It really isn’t the same if you don’t play it for yourself. It’s really the players adventure and watching someone else gives you half the experience
“Although I never played the game” As soon as you said that I decided to not take your review too seriously was assumptions never get you far.
Lol how can you judge a game that you’ve only seen videos of? That’s like critiquing a movie when you’ve only seen the trailer or judging am album after only hearing the first single lmao
Critics criticize a movie because the purpose of a movie is for it to be watched. The purpose of an album is for the music to be heard. The purpose of a game is for it to be played. So how can you judge or CRITICIZE a game by just watching a video? Its meant to be played and you have NOT played the game.
Doesn’t matter. I already imagine myself playing the game and it will not change things. I hope Gen 8 fixes this.
Lillie is my favorite! I hope we see her in future games/remakes!

I just wish there was more of it! I didn’t care for the BW2 sequels but I want like 10 SM sequels! More about Ultra Space, more about Lilly, about the original olgaleo and lunala and their history… What were the random number appearances of grimsly ( who has an amazing redesign!) and colress about?! Are there’s multiple solgaleos and lunalas in ultra space ? I just think there has to be mor to them then they can travel from one dimension to the next…
What is the purpose of their third eyes? Why choose their eyes ? Where did the idea come from.
And most of all, WHAT THE HECK IS HAPPENINF WITH MOHN?!!!!!!
Only things I could criticise in these games are they didn’t tie up the loose ends of X and Y ( especially AZ) Zinnia etc. Or at least not explicitly. It could have come together a bit more, like advertised.
But I agree! I’m thirilled with these games, they’re so much better than I thought and so rich and unique. After years of playing, pokemon felt fresh again. I don’t know how they can top or even match this in future games.
Beat the main story, caught all the legendaries (non-version exclusives anyway), made it to the Battle Tree, and now I’m knee-deep in my usual post-game breeding and item collecting.
I finished Sun and I’m catching Ubs and doing EV training to box full of 5IVs. I am now going to start Moon.
Beat the story. Haven’t started on the UBs or Tapus other than Koko. Been working on the dex and messing around trying to make a good competitive team but it’s so hard and I’m so bad.
I finished Sun and I’m befriending Type:Null. Caught Tapu Lele and tearing up the Battle Tree and Battle Royal to gain BP for my breeding gear.
Currently trying to get HA Mareanie in Timer Ball myself. After HA Mareanie I guess I’ll go breed stuff I like. I can rebuild Assault Vest Azumarill and Support Gyarados from XY (in Timer Balls this time) then I’ll go tear up Battle Tree Doubles.
Not currently bothering with UBs or the other Tapus.
Beat the game. Caught all the Tapus. Putting the UB quests on hold though while I catch some good Dittos and find a Destiny Knot.
Royal Avenue sells it
Beat the story, caught the UBs and Necrozma, catching the tapus, and prepping my team for the battle tree.
My current Moon team
Sparkster (Pikachu) lv24
Sir Pounce (Torracat) lv24
Gaines (Snorlax) lv22
Marley (Mudbray) lv20
Steenee lv20
Aragog (Dewpider) lv17
Snorlax is temporary because I couldn’t think of a 6th Mon. Alolan Vulpix maybe?
I see those HP and GoT references 😉
But should I do Vulpix?
Yeah, do vulpix
https://richi3f.github.io/pokemon-team-planner/#incineroar+raichu-alola+mudsdale+araquanid+tsareena+ninetales-alola
Or Sandshrew?
I just got to Poni Island. My team is:
Decidueye (Hedjo) lvl 46
Lycanroc (Nymeria) lvl 46
Ribombee (Janet) lvl 46
Wishiwashi (Horde) lvl 46
Salazzle (Azula) lvl 46
Crabrawler (Bumble) lvl 45
I love the name for your salazzle
Thanks 🙂 Too bad it can’t learn thunderbolt
don’t go there
hehe
Nice Avatar and Rudolph references! xD
I rewatched the third book just two nights ago x)
Such a great series.
Yes! I wish I could forget everything about it so I could start fresh *cries*
Thank you 🙂 I thought Bumble would be cute for it lol
Azula <3
It even kinda looks like the mongoose lizards they ride xP
I finished quite some time ago
Right now I’ve been a busy busy man
I just got all 100 TMs
I upgraded Pokepalageo to its fullest
I acquired a 6IV Ditto and a harem of Dittos of the natures for competitive (except four but gonna hunt them down after work)
And now I’m focusing on Breeding my first OU team for Sun and Moon
But the fun doesn’t stop here
I still need to capture the last 3 Tapu and Necrozma
I need to collect that last Cosmog
I still need to painstakingly acquire 96 BP for the power items and figure out where to EV train and level train which will be a biiiiitch
And in the end I think I’ll just buy all the clothes in the game to fill the all consuming emptiness in my being
I wish I was into competitive battling because for me once I finish the story + post-game the game’s over. I never cared about those battle mansions, towers, etc
Are you on smogon love?
Not at all. I check it whenever I need a moveset but I don’t even know how they can enforce their rules, etc
Eh it’s a double edged sword. If you take the dive into competitive and you like it, it pretty much consumes all your free time and pretty much defeats the purpose of buying any other video game.
Hence why I said “I wish I were”(not was lol) and “for me”. I just feel like doing all these things that earthen listen are a huge waste of time xd
Oh well I don’t do what Earthen does. I have other people breed *cough* hack *cough* me competitive Pokémon to my specifications. Teams change too frequently to constantly take the time to breed them, imo.
Necrozma is GOAT
Do you have a second 6IV ditto ? That would help me save countless hours of breeding. I can give you literally any pokemon in exchange. But not my shiny slowpoke…..
Lemme help
Route 1 for attack
Poni meadow for Speed (Ribombee) and special Attack (Petlil and Oricorio)
HP Poni Wilds, (Gastrodon)
You know what would make it interesting? We need a Mystery Dungeon game for this generation. I bet Cosmog should be the final boss of the main game.
I just defeated that mudsdale girl (idk her English name) and I’m apparently going to the altar now
Im currently in the moon altar
My team right now is:
Lv 48 Kommo-o (Pugquamea)
Lv 49 Decidueye (Flevert)
Lv 49 Wishiwashi (Luccia)
Lv 50 Ribombee (Bee movie)
Lv 50 Lycanroc (Wolfachen)
Lv 51 Magnezone (MegaIiman)
Magnezone <3
That random non-gen 7 Pokemon lol
I couldnt resist bringing Magnezone into my team, it is so cool
I’m trying to keep a Gen 7 team ATM as I want to highlight the new crew.
Wait what is the Kommo-o name reference to?
Its just the latin words for fighter (pugnator) and scaly (squamea) putted out together
Fuggin “bee movie” I lol’d
I beat the game awhile a go. I now just battle competitively on showdown because I haven’t pxHEX anymons yet
I just breed
Just finished the main story a couple of minutes ago.. Now I’m sad that a certain somebody left T.T
Mee too… How´s cutting the onios here!!! ;::/
And to comment on-topic: I completed Sun, caught all the UBs, Tapu’s and Necrozma and currently passive breeding and expanding Poke Pelago and Festival Plaza
Main team:
Decidueye lv76
Ribombee lv73
Salazzle lv72
Lycanroc lv74
Crabominable lv71.
Toucannon lv70
Huh, we share two mons
For my next playthrough I’m def using bulky pokemon, I’m sick of some of mine getting KOed so easily
It’s because all these alola Mons are slow af ?
ikr
I KNOWWWWW
The only ones in my team that does serious work are Primarina and Toxapex.. the others are too slow and get OHKO’d by everything
Wishiwashi is super bulky.
Yeah but toxapex is already going to be my water type :/
Boooo
Question: Which character do you relate to the most and why? There are some really complex characters in S/M.
Personally, I relate the most to Nihilego xD
I have to ability to entirely negate my own existence and absorb thoughts and emotions from those who “love” me.
Yo I’d love the be a Nihilego
I’d say I’m a slightly edgier Hau
Is the canyon Alola’s victory road?
Unpopular opinion. I prefered the 2*2 battle screen interface over the 1*4 column (when selecting moves). Although I do enjoy the rest of the interface. Especially when you can click on a Pokemon you’re facing and see its typing and stat modifications.
Also Kukui is by far the best regional professor and Hau by far the the best rival. Lillie story was very immersive and it was nice to see other characters involved in the long run.
Not 100% sold on Trials over Gyms just yet, I think I prefered Gyms slightly more.
Also game is still too easy with EXP share, yeh yeh I can switch it off, but that doesn’t make it any different to the Gen 6 games (which could also be challenging without the EXP share).
I think if did have gyms this gen they should have used the z-crystals instead of badges. Same concept kind of but i like the trials although some of them are pretty easy
As someone who’s played both without Exp Share, I’m going to have to say no to that last part
XY was laughably easy due to the Gym Leaders being laughably bad, Lysandre using only four Pokémon, the Elite Four doing the same, Diantha’s heavily unbalanced team, amazing Pokémon being shoved in your face, being able to go on a Mega rampage against any foe sans like three people, etc.
ORAS isn’t much better.
I played all three of XY, ORAS and SuMo with the EXP share on and the difficulty level was pretty much the same to me. The main difference was the difficulty of the E4 which i admit were weakest in XY, slightly stronger in ORAS and pretty tough in SuMo.
That was the only difference I detected.
I had an easy time simply because of luck and that refresh breaks your mons
My whole point is that they’re radically different without it, Exp. Share would make any Pokémon game easy :p
Fair enough. I could only make an accurate comparison with the EXP share on, since I used it in all 3.
Without, may indeed be different.
It’s like as you went down the list I disagreed more. lol Forever confused by people who dislike a feature they can turn off.
I don’t dislike the feature I think it’s incredibly handy :p
However the difficulty level is the same as Gen 6 when the games are played in the same way (I.e. with the EXP share on)
Eh I wouldn’t go that far. Granted a first playthrough is always marginally more difficult due to not knowing what’s coming but on my most recent playthrough on Y I didn’t even need any other Pokémon the entire game other than Delphox. It single handedly ran the fudging show. It was like in the 80s by the time I beat the game. This game is not that easy.
But yes. Still easy. Cause it’s Pokémon. And cause it’s a turn based RPG so it’s inherently easy if you’re willing to grind with or without EXP Share
I can only speak from my own experiences, obviously not indicative of everyone elses opinions.
I’ll admit one thing that made Y easier was that you were given a Kantor starter, which as a starter was designed to be very good in-game regardless. And Mega Evolution was much more useful in-game than Z-moves ( I didn’t use Z-moves in SuMo at all until the E4).
Overall however my opinion on the difficulty stands :p
I caught a shiny slowpoke yesterday while searching for a slowbro.Also I just got to poni island, am a bit late cause I wanted to catch every pokemon on every island so I can have a nearly full dex before post game.
I’m up to the post game,but I’m trying to Shiny Hunt a Rockruff.I really hope I get one soon
Aka shiny trash
There’s worse
Like two mons in the Alolan dex
Midday is eh, doesn’t even get coverage
Just finished the main story, right before the league.
Toucannon Lv. 54 (Buckbeak)

Primarina Lv. 55 (Nessie)

3 Harry Potter references? Love
Rock slide or stone edge on lycanroc?
I just saw the fairy trial leader and got the fairium-z. Ive been pokemon hunting to the fullest the last few locations and my team (i believe are between 54-55):
Decidueye
Riombee
Mudsdale
Salazzle
Bewear
Toucannon
I must say this game definitely has me more involved than X/Y. After being gen 6 i just stopped playing the games but this series has me wanting to hunt for pokemon and look for the zygarde cells and cores. This has been a great way to rejuvenate the video game series
