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’m working on completing my dex and shiny hunting. I also have all the zygarde cells minus 3 and it is incredibly frustrating.
I am murdering so many Fearows.
I wonder if they’re white meat or beef like ostriches
Probs white meat tbh, doesn’t look like a red meat animal
Probably
Out of all the Pokemon I would eat
-Tauros steak and burgers
-politoed legs
-Flaafy chops (braised by their own electricity)
-deep fried Farfetch’d and grind the leek into a seasoning spice
-Milotic Sashimi (just to scorn the Milotic lovers)
-Crabrawler claws on the grill
– and lastly Oranguru Brains
You would likely be arrested because pokemon display sentience and would have rights if real.
I apologize for nothing
You may not apologize, but you’ll regret it.
Also, Milotic is probably super high in mercury, you’re not going to want to eat that..
It’s super high in Beauty is what it is!
What would you eat to replace things like sushi or salmon?
They’re like Rattata and Yungoos… FUCKING ANNOYING AND VERY EXTANT
Heyy where did you get the 6iv ditto from ?
Suckered it
Now Earthens got me curious
What Pokémon do you think people eat? 😮
They don’t anymore.
In that case
*ate
Miltank yogurt man
Wingull
it’s a kid’s show/game, they won’t show people eating pokemon
PEOPLE EAT FUCKING SLOWPOKETAILS ALL THE TIME!
That’s not the same as killing it tho
It grows back
but it’s still meat.
It’s might that doesn’t result in the death of the animal
Isn’t it regarded as illegal..?
We eat cows and chickens but we think eating whales is wrong, but then there’s japan
Because Whales have a low fecundity and many are endangered.
same could apply in the pkm world. and that was not my point lol maybe some think eating slowpokes is wrong while others don’t. if team rocket sold their tails it’s because there was a demand for it
The way I see it: since Pokémon are sentient and self-aware, it’s immoral to eat them. And the games have reinforced this over the years by how much work they’ve put into making Pokémon our equals.
I’m sure humans don’t live off plants and berries
There are thought to be real animals in the pokemon world, they’re just not shown
why not? there are plenty of vegans and vegetarians in our own world and you don’t see them dropping dead or having issues with their food choices
It’s hard to support an entirely vegan society tho
their world is different than ours
Humans are still humans tho
Like yeah their world could be bigger and/or more lushious but they’re competing with mega fauna
And they’re most likely still omnivorous
for all we know though they could have an entirely different genetic makeup than us though, but I mean, its fiction so who really cares
We know they’re eaten Pokémon in the past tho
yeah and they removed it just cuz kids wouldn’t like to see pikachu getting eaten
Coma Theory, thats all Im saying, it explains why real animals slowly disappeared.
Or it could be they were place holders for actual Pokémon and the coma theory is dumb overthrowing (still interesting, but stupid))
if you believe in that bullshit then don’t even bother to respond to my comments anymore
you know what else is dumb? trying to come up with a theory as to if pokemon are eaten in the pokemon world or not 😉
also that was an extremely rude thing to say, what if I was some kid who actually did believe in that
I mean not really
One is a logical conclusion because it’s been said in the game and humans are omnivorous
The other is complex over thinking of a kids anime just because it’s absurd
wow
what requiem said.
+ life is not fair and I don’t like kids so I would’ve still said the same thing
double wow
they drink miltank milk + I doubt everyone is a vegetarian. + vegans need to be careful with what they eat in order to get the right amounts of vitamins etc and the whole human pop would never do that
Supplements, fortification, higher costs, competition over plants which isn’t sustainable without artificial assistance which a ton of vegs hate anyway, etc
Eh. I still think a nice roast Unfezant would go down a treat
Miltank and Tauros are a given, also Magikarp.
Cherubi maybe
Miltank meat might make some delicious steak
Uhhhhh you probably can’t…. I think by law it has to be Tauros
I’m a poacher though
Oh then let me join you
I will take you down
Grumpig ham
all fish that are not poison type
What about some mouthwatering Qwilfish lika fugu
let me pop it with a needle
Roasted Psyduck.
Braised Mareep.
Smoked Magikarp.
Miltank burgers.
Fried Farfetch’d.
Grumpig chops.
Dried Cherubi orbs.
Sewaddle salad.
Artificially flavored Vanillite and Vanillish.
…And salted-slowpoke tails just to name a few dishes.
Pokébon appétit~!

Tell me Bounsweet doesn’t look appetizing
But it evolves into a goddess
So funny to think that those little nubs evolve into those legs lmao
Hot hot leg so hot it could fry an egg
299/300 Pokemon in Sun
Main Sun Team: Decidueye, Vikavolt, Wishiwashi, Mudsdale, Salazzle
Beaten E4, UB quest, and only need one moon exclusive left to complete the dex in Sun. About to beat Moon, nearing the final trial now.
My opinion: fantastic. A little slow to start, but easily the best story since BW. I’d rate it in my top 3 favorites, brought down only by how small the dex is and the small amount of post game content. I’m praying that Stars is a real thing!
i’ve legit been in a 3 hour chain of riolu looking for a Lucario. 17 Chansey’s not a single Lucario
is there a pokemon that can learn both false swipe and recycle?
smeargle
other than smeargle obviously…
I should make a shiny hunting smeargle… Tapu Koko is good but running out of PP is annoying
PP max that shit
how do you do this? I know about the doubles method but I don’t think we have rematches in this game.
Do what?
Smeargle sketch manipulation.
No idea honestly
I know in earlier games you could have a pokemon with the move and smeargle in doubles to do it.
Wait for Pokebank
By the way I found a Shiny Bonsly last night.
That’s 2 shinies so far, and I haven’t even played 24 hrs play time yet.
And that’s a grand total of 2 more than I had in Gen 6
Are Bonsly based off the Bonsai tree?
I am currently in the post game catching some UB’s and boxing them for all eternity (I never use legendary pokemon)
I don’t use them since I can’t breed them to make good ones.
Hyper Train them.
that doesn’t manipulate natures and I’m not going to go out and catch a bunch of pokemon for Synchronize.
That’s your fault then. Either Synchro or SR, choosing not to do it doesn’t mean you can’t.
there is no such thing as a “good” one to me, I don’t really care to much about natures and IVs and such coinciding, the problem I have is that you get them so late in the game my team is already made and I cant deal to part with any of them. Plus I would feel like using a legend would be tainting them in some way
Saving them for competitive
I also never use legends in competitive unless its with friends and we are specifically doing an all legends battle
Yeah but it’s just nice to have good natures for them just in case
When you’re https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/1d032801ece6ad9acbad54702cd5b422e3088fade1bf20efdcb61fdece3871e4.gif on tumblr and someone with no knowledge in the field begins arguing with you
lmao welcome to tumblr. What started the discourse?
Don’t even have it yet lol. Hope it doesn’t disappoint. My favorites are Black/White(Good storyline, Lot of things to do, and great amount of new pokemon) and Silver/Gold (Great game, good music, and heavy in nostalgia). Wonder if Sun/Moon will work its way up there
It will. Lillie. Just Lillie.
Nebby is best girl
Nebby is best Nebby.
Lillie was so much cringe though.
‘This is my Z-form’
Say what??
NO SHE IS BEST
Yeh she is a great character. Just some of what she says makes her sound so dense.
But I liked her anyway. Definitly a good supporting character.
This made me want to say “Never do that again or we’re no longer friends.”
No she cute and happy so it’s okay
It is honestly the only time I hated sun and moon’s story.
or more accurately it’s the ONLY thing bad in Sun and Moon, other than no DexNav and Super Training.
She’s 11 and in awe of Z-Power
Were all cringe at that age
At least it’s not as bad as that face the player character has all game. Yes I know our own personal facial reactions are supposed to replace that, but I swear it looks so strange when all the characters are reacting to stuff and our character just has that strangely creepy smile on.
Ok yeah like something happens and our character is just 🙂
Lusamine is crazy?
🙂
Oh look a UB
🙂
Congratulations you’re the champion
🙂
Lillie leaving?
🙂
ok that Lillie farewell should’ve had a hug seriously
I hate our dumb fucking face.
They’re good but not mind-blowing. People tend to overexaggerate a bit here
It’s less exaggerating and more differing opinions tbh
I mean, compared to other pokemon games this one is amazing, but if we compare it to other games it’s not mind-blowing
Someone who never played a pkm game before wouldn’t think much of SM. It’s still a solid game though
Sad to hear. Already disappointed with the amount of new pokemon. Though the scenery looks really nice. Idk the storyline, but from what i’ve seen its nothing too special. So the deciding factor probably for me is how much there is to do in the game.
I still haven’t finished the game but the storyline’s way better than in the previous games
good to hear
Woot! I defeated the E4 again, and defended my title from Hau! (Thank god it wasnt Sophocles I wasnt prepared for him)
I have a question; Which house does the Name Rater live in?
The tourist center in the first city in Alola island
Akala*
lol
Ok, thank you.
none, he’s in akala visitor center.
OK, thanks.

Hey it’s Lusamine’s Ex-Husband Mohn!
This literally blew my mind when I found out. Lusamine could’ve done so much better tbh
OOPS INT REASD THAT SPOILS
I actually think Mohn could have done better. Holy shit, imagine being married to that crazy bitch.
She may have gone crazy when he discovered the wormholes, apparently he also has amnesia
That kind of crazy doesn’t just happen. It’s always there and the signs probably drove him away. Guy’s lucky he got out when he did.
I’m pretty sure he also went missing through one of said holes.
TBF I think it’s the pain of having her husband taken away + the stress of being a single mother and an owner of a very active business (we know it has branches in other regions due to phrasing) + the fear of loss and a rejection of love (her child ran away, and her other followed)
Definetley some underlying mental health issues tho
Like every Crazy person in real life, they had to have had some sort of mental thing to begin with.
I don’t think she was always crazy
Aren’t we all just a little crazy inside.
Love > Beauty
Lusamine wasn’t always (this) crazy, UB-01 has mind powers.
It’s a neuro toxin and she probably didn’t touch one (to become infected with it) until she got to Ultra Space
well she could have been exposed when her husband disappeared into a wormhole…
if the reason we don’t have emotions is due to customization, I’d rather have emotions.
It isn’t, the customisation doesn’t effect any shapes sand hair
And tbh is rather my character be a blank slate then having to pretend some kid who looks nothing like me is me
It’s one of the two things that I hate about sun and moon, along with Cringe Lillie.
Lillie?!
Z-Lillie hurts me to see such a loveable character do something so cringe-inducing.
I only need the one emotion
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Ccgs8NSUkAACQuZ.jpg
and you don’t have that either do you? you don’t get visibly mad at loopymine do you?
Have you even met me?
your avatar Earthen…
What’s that supposed to mean
You are the avatar, master of the four elements
Ground, Earth, Land, and DANCE.
As much as that is true all I need is Earth and Fire
no, the 4 elements of Earthen are Ground Earth Land and DANCE.
THE PLAYER CHARACTER IN THE DIGITAL GAME WORLD EARTHEN.
Ooooooh ok ok now I understand
Brain fart
I can’t see my face because of my sexy new aviator shades and hat so facial expressions are the least of my worries
And I’d rather have adjustable body types
me too, I want to make a Sophocles.
Phat boy…
Also speaking of Sophicles I think in the anime his Togedemaru is actually Female
I want my large and in charge physique
I wonder if Togedemaru will have a crush on Pikachu them, it better not since he’s buneary’s man.
It might Pikachu was rubbing up on its needles
who hates the fact that GF decided to not give the player facial expressions?
Me. I just wanna slap my character whenever something significant happens and he still has that goofy smile
I like to think that the main character is a little sociopath that doesn’t have a shred of empathy and a very rudimentary understanding of what is socially acceptable. Thus, he or she always smiles because they do not know how else to react in what they perceive as a socially acceptable way.
well Tapunium-Z would agree.
Not me.
Me
the “dying in the inside while smile in the outside” expression is the only one I use in real life so im good
Lmfao
It takes a lot to make the character even mildly take notice
Is there any way to release Pokemon?
computer.
K thanks.
Hmm. I have a question. Totally plot related.
Do we ever get an indication of what exactly it was that drove Lusamine insane. If it’s just cos she’s obsessed with UBs (specifically Nihilego), then that kind of makes her backstory a little lacklustre in my opinion. There has to be a reason, a driving force.
There is one. Have you attempted the UB quest yet? Wicke gives you a little more background as to the impetus to her change
Mohn disappeared through an Ultra Wormhole and she lost Gladion after that, and even after that, Lillie. I feel it’s a heightened fear of loss, an underlying wish to see Mohn again, and mental health issues
What actually happens to Mohn though. He just disappears? Is he not alive any more?
he’s the amnesiac master of pokepelago
go on poke Pelago
Thats too long and I don’t have my 3DS with me right now. I just want the lowdown on her story. I know he’s the Pokepelago guy, but like what exactly is the Pokepelago in respect to the SuMo world?
I have no Idea, I got it and Charizard from Kiawe without realizing it.
They’re a small Archipelago in Alola
He either got there with no memory after getting sucked into an Ultra Wormhole, or went there deliberately with his memories
This can go deeper. Since Pokepelago is where Pokemon go when you deposit them in the PC, whats to say Pokepelago isn’t just a computer programme, and Mohns concisousness was programmed in.
You can see it in the official art
I’m still not sure if she’s crazier than Lysander or Cyrus who wanted to commit genocide or rewrite the world in his image respectively
This is my point exactly. Yes she’s insane, but nothing about her plan was all that crazy. Yeh she released some Ultra beasts, but they only caused a bit of damage and were easily contained.
well that was part of the plan.
Lusamine was perfectly fine with having the UBs destroy the world
https://youtu.be/H9j-MHzwEQ8
just beat sun with decidueye and started moon with litten. splitting my time between a new game and post game. Logged 35 hours on sun on just the story and poke hunting for my team. really impressed with how long it took me
We can argue that Lusamine was afraid of losing the people closest to her. But here’s what I’m understanding.
She loses her Husband when he goes through a wormhole correct? So he goes to the Ultrabeast world and loss his memory when he returns so she leaves him? Or he disappears and she never sees him again. Which is unlikely. Is he still alive or is his presence in the Pokepelago world just his consciousness in a computer programme. The real Mohn was killed when he went through the wormhole?
Also Lusamine doesn’t go crazy cos her children leave her and she feels neglected, her children leave her because they could see she was already crazy and started neglecting them. So is it the death of her husband that drives her to begin neglecting her children and become obsessed with UBs, in a vain effort to bring him back or find meaning in life?
Sorry for the long post, I just want to understand and see what people think.
She was already becoming controlling and cruel already, but having your children leave you isn’t helping and will obviously accumulate it
Of course, but them staying wouldnt really have helped much either.
Also I like my version of the story better. She was doing it for love :p
They could’ve supported her and possibly kerbed her a bit, although it was better for them
Unfortunately this still doesn’t give me complete confidence in Lusamines story I’m afraid. Ah well. It’s still solid for a Pokemon game. I just feel it could have been more cohesive.
I’d play through the post game and see the evidence your self, a lot of it seems worse when filtered through the Internet
Also, that Mohn is a real Mohn, he mentions eating and Poké Pelago is a physical space
Pokemon going there when placed in the PC however makes me think otherwise.
Damn, I wanted this to be deep
You fly to it, you wouldn’t need to fly if it was digital
I’m training for battling Olivia.
My team is:
Willow (Dartrix {F}): Lv.31
Snorkel (Araquanid {M}) : Lv.29
Colada (Crabrawler {F}): Lv.28
Fatale (Salandit {F}): Lv.28
My Future additions will be Minior {M} and Alola Exeggutor {M}
You’re so overlevelled OwO
Really? I thought I was under levelled. But anyway, I’m gonna stop at Level 32 for Willow and 30 for all the others.
Olivia’s highest Level is 27
Better safe than sorry 😉
You are Gucci dude. Don’t worry, just level to a point where anxiety doesn’t get you and go for it.
I mean each to their own but steam rolling the game doesn’t seem fun
It’s not really steamrolling, but I’m used to doing it because Chikorita was my first starter so you’d probably imagine why.
I honestly can’t see Olivia giving you trouble at you level without you literally trying to make it difficult
My Primarina was at a lvl 35 when I battled Olivia.
That’s insane
kill the dog quickly, it will wreck your shit.
Will do.
Wait, on the PC where do I got o get rid of Pokemon?
Like release?
Yes
You click on the Pokémon and it should be an option.
When I click on it there is no option
Oh. Well then… I don’t know.
uh oh
Does anyone else know how to release Pokemon?
It definitely exists since I purged the Mareanie with Limber
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/c193ac6eae6ea4d0fdc6f5427e2217de07ee71a7d79b61bde6d8e323364be09f.jpg
just click there
I’m okay with bagon only in meteor falls, I’m okay with Gible being only in Wayward Cave, I’M NOT OKAY WITH ROCKRUFF ONLY BEING IN TEN CARAT HILL AND 3 POKEMON ONLY BEING IN LUSH JUNGLE.
And one Pokemon only being available in SOS battles, and the stupid sandcastle having a lower encounter rate than a starfish. I definitly see more Sandcastles than Starfish on a beach.
This is a world where skunks can shoot fire from their arse :p
Wellllllllll Skuntank don’t do that….
Stunky is the one with the rear scent glands
Skuntank actually emit their stench (and flames) from the tip of their tails
which are connected to said arse.
So pedantic :p
Least I know things
Yeah, Pokémon things
My heads filled with nutrition and dietetics facts
And I colorfully gruesome ways to disembowel victims
That’s nice, but do you have a sufficient iron intake?
:p
No, I honestly think I should be taking calcium tablets and maybe some fish oil pills
I’ve been out of my prime for about 5 years and I fear my body is unsalvageable
I was mostly kidding, but tbh as long as you aren’t a heavy smoker, drinker, etc, there shouldn’t be anything too that can’t be helped sans teeth if they’re bad or if you develop a dietary condition like diabetes
I’m not a registered dietician (haven’t even started studying in uni) so don’t take me as a final source on anything, but I do love discussing diets with people, it’s good practice.
Oh well my diet can only be described as “clinically alarming” my metabolism is absolutely shot and my boatloads of prolonged stress, depression mixed in with my never ceasing migraine make healthy living an absolute impossibility
I mean if you find yourself constantly snacking, have you tried having healthier snacks?
Also, for any saturated (pretty much just animal-baded fats) fats, be sure to counterbalance with unsaturated fats (usually in plants and stuff)
And I mean even if your metabolism is bad, you’ll still receive benefits from healthy eating. Probably a lot more energy to help you overcome your other issues.
they’re ghost sandcastles.
How do ou release Pokemon?!
Well I just caught Necrozma can anybody let me know if this is a good nature? It was a pain to catch in a UB ball hope i don’t have to try again ?https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/322dba06293c1c59fb7a743b5f16e368fe6d0619ec05e40b73031c7e6f02b617.jpg
red is good stat blue is bad stat.
They removed that
no they didn’t…
Sorry, thought I hard that somewhere
No they didn’t
They’re all green so all even?
yes.
It is a neutral nature.
Neutral natures tend to be be bad, but if you’re not going for official tournaments it’ll work just fab
Won’t be using it for tournments just wanted to know if this was a good nature and not a complete waste of UB balls lol
