Empoleon has just been announced as a playable character for Pokkén Tournament! The Water/Steel-type will be available in the arcade version beginning on December 15th. Its existence was first hinted at in datamining leaks during summer, but it will finally make its official debut now six months later.
Still no word if the extra characters, including Darkrai and others, will ever make it to the Wii U console version. Let’s keep our fingers crossed for some official word!
After the random Chansey, I’m now really chaining Riolu. EZ coz it can’t to anything to ghosts unlike everything else I attempted to chain today…
regarding S.O.S. chains and IVs, does the chain stop counting at 40? like, the odds of getting good IV’s doesn’t get any better after 40? that’s what I hear, but I want to make sure. ive killed like 150+ of the damn things (ditto) so far.
4IV is the max guaranteed. The remaining IVs are random so you have a 1/32 chance of either being 31… 1/1024 for both.
which stops at 40 pokemon chained? I just want to stop the chain safely is all.
You can keep the chain going on forever actually if you want to attempt for a shiny or HA ditto… as long as you stop them from struggling you should be fine.
thanks to porygon, its locked into recycling its leppa berry forever. the chain cannot end until I’m ready for it to.
Someguy went to 200+ to try for a shiny caterpie…
Not related to pokemon, but what did you guys think about the Breath of the Wild trailer?
I… completely forgot to see it! I had a busy day, I’m going to go check it out now!
NEED.
Looks like perfection
(hate incoming) It looks great, but I’m not a Zelda fan myself. 🙂
I never noticed how beautiful shiny drifblim is, and now I want one.
I want shiny Hawlucha
I want hawlucha to go extinct
why? I think hawluchas great! I have a hawlucha plush that I attached to my ceiling fan and he flies in circles lol.
That’s hilarious hahaha
I find it unpleasing to my eyes.
*lucha*

barfff
You like Dewpider
???
What’s not to like about the lil alien spider virus
You and I have different taste in liking Pokemon
I tend to like cool/powerful/funky looking pokemon. The masculine turn me off generally, like Incineroar, Emboar, Chesnaught, Machamp, Hawlucha, Hariyama, Throh, Sawk, etc. Generally a bunch of fighting types, although there are a lot of good ones too. The feminine humanoid ones aren’t much better like Tsareena, Jynx, Aromatisse, Phermosa, maybe more.
aww that’s a shame. to each their own I guess, but I really find gen VI to have some of the most solid designs, and hawlucha is definitely one of them.
Gen 6 is alright, although there weren’t enough and a lot of them deserved another evolution. Gen 2 and 3 are probs the weakest, imo.
i’ll agree with gen 2 (I like them, but I wish more of them were good) but I feel gen 3’s designs did a good job matching their environment. it was the first gen where I felt “wow, I could really se these things living here!” (I still remember when I first found a tropius, man, that thing blew my mind as a kid.)
They’re not bad, it’s just I don’t tend to like a lot of Gen 3 pokemon all that much.
For me I’d say it goes:
5 = 7 > 6 = 3 > 1 = 2 = 4
I’d probs go 4 (cause I love the cross gens) > 5 > 1 > 6 = 7 > 3 > 2
7>3>4=6>5>1=2 I guess this is the way I see it, unless we count the remakes, I guess i’d place gen 6 higher.
This one was for Pokémon designs
alright then, in that case:
6>3=7>4=(most of)5>2>1
Doesn’t it unbalance/destabilize your ceiling fan and might cause it to fly off like a Kartana…
omg maybe that’s why its making those weird noises?
o.o
Er… I hope it’s easy to remove/reinstall the Hawlucha…
You might try removing the toy and see if that fixes the noises. If not, well then the fan’s either normal or you should ask a repairman if it’s normal..???
oh its easy to take off, he’s just attached by his tag lol.
I chained for one last gen with the pokeradar in x. I lost the chain with a shiny patch due to a hard to see dud patch, but I found another shiny patch only 6 in with her in it!
Whoops Riolu died, I am overestimating the PP of all its moves…
So I think got myself hooked on shinies. Here’s the list of those I wish to hunt for at some point:
Ivysaur
Charizard
–
Sneasel
Magcargo
–
Flygon
–
Luxray
Lopunny
Drifblim
–
Serperior
Boldore
Woobat
Chandelure
–
Braixen
Tyrantrum
Sylveon
Dedenne
Goodra
Noivern
–
Litten
Brionne
Crabrawler
Oricorio – Baile
Ribombee
Rockruff
Tseenee
Palossand
Salazzle
Minior
Dhelmise
Hakamo-o
That’s a lot. <3
My target right now is Krookodile. I'm gonna aim low for now.
I like to make lists. I think it’s easily my weirdest quirk. This won’t be something I tackle any time soon. But long term.
I have a 6 IV shiny modest HA sylveon I got it from someone who uses SVE
SVE?
https://m.reddit.com/r/SVExchange/
Still confused. But I have shinies from other people and hacked ones but those aren’t in my “collection.”
SVE is another way of getting legal shinies. Each trainer has an SV short for shiny value and when the Pokemon in an egg matches that value it hatches shiny. To do this merhod you need to calculate your SV first using an SV calculator
Yo, TigerMasku, how did you get a Max IV ditto, and what are my odds of getting one the same way?
https://m.reddit.com/r/BreedingDittos/
I got one from here you need a 7-14 days old account though
Btw you need to watch today’s episode I think you might like it
is it on their website? I don’t have television.
You can find on YouTube Sumo episode 5
I’ll link it here just give me a sec
episode 5? I got it. I’m watching now.
Ash: Its so big!
Lana: This is the first time its ever been so big!
–
James and meowth: whats going on?
Jesse: I want some of that!
(really?!? lol)
They’re talking about Milotic, right? Right???
no they were talking about popplio’s bubbles. whats up with Lillie in this? she doesn’t like even touching pokemon?
I think it’s visually easier to present “doesn’t like touching” than “doesn’t like battling”… only reason they’d do this.
XD that bewear scene! what was up with that?!?!? that just made my life, I did not expect that! is that how its been portrayed on the show so far? as some “chuck Norris” like entity?
loool it’s even better
Kommo-o’s shiny is so hideous https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/6f5c0cb32061671b2d26750bcf36b7c0b7941056e813833b6e421268bfbce4e4.gif
Ultron, it’s funny how I always have the opposite opinion
Ew, you like it??!
I like it too, gives me Team Skull vibes with the lime and magenta coloration.
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/16bd74e9706a9f2b3f236cb1c379e0e4f0d01983e08a0c4deb45802818ecccfd.gif
I don’t like it too, yellow and pink don’t go well together
Someone gets it!
AGREED
Am I the only one who noticed that the names of the Tapu ruins are ironic to the path that leads to it.
The Ruins of Conflict = A peaceful nature trail
The Ruins of Life = A graveyard
The Ruins of Abundance = A desert full of nothing
The Ruins of Hope = The remains of a fallen civilisation
Maybe ruin is playing a dual meaning? Maybe it’s not just talking about ruins as in a destroyed place.
PRAISE GOOMY, a 2nd chance Arceus Wi-Fi event has just gone live along with Meloetta! Looks like I’ll be getting 4 of each tomorrow. I doubt I’ll even need a Genesect from somebody after all…I might have 4 coming my way in March.
Silvally is Exploding its way through the Battle Tree…
What type are you using for it?
Normal.
Silvally @ Normalium-Z
Jolly Nature
EVs: 252 Atk, 252 Spe, 4 SDef
> Explosion
> Crunch
> Flame Charge
> Swords Dance
Awesome set
Headcanon says that when Dark-type trainers reach a certain age, they get afflicted with a curse where their hair turns white, and their soul slowly dies away. Nanu had gotten the curse years ago, and Grimsley has recently gotten it too. Karen and Sidney will also soon get this curse as well. It also explains why there are no Dark Gym Leaders because they don’t want to get the curse
Speaking of Exploding, I finally (because it’s goddamn random when the AI gangs up on me) won the Battle Royal master difficulty level with Silvally, and unlocked a new battle style.
I love Ribombee so much <3
If we include UB’s as a kind of Legendary, we finally have a Poison one, and that’s pretty neat.
I can see why people would say they’re not though, but I can give an argument for one of the reasons people give:
“You can get Multiple of them” – Well, yeah, but most None main Legends there are multiple of, so that’s not really an excuse.
Plus with the new Pokedex colouring system, their background, like the Tapus, is Green. Also Type: Null but I mentioned that already.
Another plus is, well Necrozma, Solgaleo and Lunala are implied to be UB, but are still Legendary Pokemon.
So my original point was, yeay Poison legendary. (for the sake of it, I’m including Mythicals as Legendary too)
Cosmog comes from Ultra Space, so Solgaleo/Lunala are UBs
Yes that’s what I meant by implied
Cosmog is made after the mascots give birth.
It is literally stated in game it comes from the Ultra Space and thats why it can create the wormholes
Deoxys and Rayquaza are UBs too then if that’s your logic, so is Hoopa.
What? Deoxys is mutated DNA, it wasn’t born naturally and it spawned in the Pokemon universe. Hoopa can travel between dimensions, that doesn’t mean its an Ultra Beast. Rayquaza lives in the ozon layer, how does that make it an UB? Because it can breath in space?
Deoxys came from space.
All I know is that the Tapus and Solgaleo and Lunala are 100% legendaries (just because they share a similarity with UBs doesn’t mean it has to be physical, it could be they came from similar worlds), UBs are a 50/50.
Tapu’s are technically mythicals because their BST isn’t 600
Mythicals all have a BST of 600 apart from Keldeo and Arceus, Keldeos matches it’s qaurtet, and arceus is high, so that doesn’t mean anything
Then the Tapu’s aren’t mythicals either since their BST is 570
They are Minor Legends, like the trios of the past and all none Mythical none Main Legends.
But they are Special Pokemon. Elite Pokemon.
Yes, but they’re still in the same classifications as all the other none main legends and none Mythicals.
They’re legendary yes, but Side one, minor ones, despite their larger role.
I put a list above
For the sake of it, I’ll name Legendaries/Mythicals that there are certainly multiple of.
In order:
The Birds
Mew
The Beasts of Johto
Celebi
Deoxys
Phione
Manaphy
Genesect
Zygarde (Due to the cores)
Type:Null
Solgaleo
Lunala (Both due to Multiple Cosmogs)
Every UB
Marshadow?
And ones that there it’s possible theres multiple of:
Mewtwo (There appears to be one in Kanto and one in Kalos)
The Tower Duo
Titans of Hoenn
The Eon Duo
Jirachi
Cresselia
Heatran
Regigigas
Darkrai
Shaymin
Victini
Swords of Justice
Forces of Nature
Meloetta
Diancie
Hoopa
Volcanion
Necrozma
Ones that only makes sense for there to be 1 of:
The Weather Trio
Lake Guardians
Creation Trio
Tao Trio
Xerneas and Yveltal
The Island Guardians
Magearna
There I think that’s alll of them
Also I propose this:
-Side Legends: (All other legends that don’t fit the other catagories)
-Main Legends: (Mewtwo, plus Zygarde,Necrozma and All Boxart Legends excluding Suicune )
-Mythicals: (All only event Pokemon plus Deoxys and Phione)
-Ultra Beasts (Comon this one is easy)
With some Pokemon being in more than one catagory. For example, Solgaleo, Lunala, their pre evos and possibly necrozma are also UB’s. Keldeo is a Sword of Justice so is in Mythicals and Sides, and Cresselia and Darkrai are a duo.
I don’t see them as legendary cos there is nothing legendary about them. At least not in our world. Theres no myths or stories about them, they’re just Pokemon that appeared from another world.
So Nooooo…we still don’t have a poison legendary.
Lol the anime actually replaced the TR blasting off with Bewear carryoffs
Bewear running on water though XD
Beware is Jesus confirmed?
Anyone know the best way to get Max PP Up/PP Up?
The lazy way: loto-id every day. (2 matches = PP UP; 4 matches = PP Max) or festival plaza lotteries and haunted houses every day (chance of either)
The grind: battle tower: rewards given out once a day (10 straight wins = PP Up, 40 straight wins = PP Max)
There is no more ID Lottery
There is one, lol. It’s in Hau’oli City’s visitor center.
I’ll go with lazy
Also what does the woman say when my Pokemon has max friendship?
That your Pokemon really, really likes you. It also evolves certain Pokémon after leveling up. Like Eevee and Riolu for example
It’s hard to get Crobat.
Golbat also levels up with max friendship. I usually just give them a Soothe Bell and visit a massage shop once a day to speed things up
Just Harvest and feed it a ton of friendship increasing berries
Which berries are those?
There’s one for each stat cause they also lower EVs. I dunno the names.
“It feels incredibly close to you! Nothing makes it happier than being with you!”
But many things will evolve a bit of a way into the previous friendship message level. You don’t need to max it out.
I have almost completed the dex, I have also all the version exclusives of the other version. What I need to catch:
4 Tapu
Cosmog and Cosmoen
3 UBs
Necrozma
Catching Legends is so boring but it’s the last thing I have to do….
So I’m on the GTS making trades trying to work on my dex, and unfortunately during one of the trades, a communication error occurred. Now I’m banned from making trades for the time being. How dumb.
how long does it say?
Please wait a while, and then try again to trade.
Moral of the story: Get a better internet connection :p
My Internet is great actually.
Yeh that is kind of dumb. Apparently rage quiting battles also results in a ban.
that makes more sense
Btw there’s another bot going on, and now I’m going to miss it. Deposit a Growlithe on GTS and ask for Ditto.
I’m at work at the moment so if it’s still going by the time I get home I’ll try it.
If you do manage to get an extra, that would be greatly appreciated
I’ll try. But it’s still 8 hrs till I get home 🙁
I started working towards BP for the Destiny Knot as well. I’m on 22 at the moment. Gonna be a long grind.
This Ditto comes with that! ;~;
Oh…even better. If I do manage to get one today, I know what I’m doing this weekend…
Watch how slow the next 8 hours will be now.
I’m getting home in about 40 mins , so if the bot is still giving away dittos , I’ll go catch 4 growlithe trade them and give you and TCrowlet one both.
Notes: It needs to be nicknamed KetzTim6
And I just read after receiving a ditto you will be added to the bot’s banlist. This ban will last at least 24 hours to ensure everyone gets one.
Oh…well are you sure that the growlithe needs to be nicknamed that ?
KetzAda6 for Adamant 6 IV
KetzJol6 for Jolly 6 IV
KetzMod6 for Modest 6 IV
KetzTim6 for Timid 6 IV
Thanks a lot !
How do you know when there’s a bot ? And are the dittos 6iv ?!…
It’s a bot if the trade is accepted almost immediately if you refresh the system. Most likely 5-6 IV yes
Oh ! I didn’t know such things existed. And how do you know when the distribution ends/begins.
Dunno, just try it and see if it works
Surfing the Internet xD
Yesterday I got the ban for a communication error. It took 24h for me to be able to use gts again. Some people say their ban lasted for more the 74h. This is totally annoying. My connection is always unstable, I’m just afraid of using online services.
Such an absurd punishment. Should happen to repeat offenders, not for an occassional communication error.
It’s a necessary evil I suppose. Prevents people from screwing with trade
I have HA Alolan Vulpix(s) for trade :
Name: Vulpix
Ability: Snow warning
Nature: Timid
Egg moves: Detect Moonblast Encore Charm/Hypnosis
Looking for HA alolan pokemon or a mareani with egg moves.
Is Necrozma any good to use?
I saw him twice on showdown 1 time I owned him like a slave, the second time it walled me terribly and I didn’t even faint 1 of the opponent’s mons.
I might use it for the Battle Tree because Crabominable is just too frail, as much as I love the typing.
Sadly, Necrozma’s banned in Tree… 🙁
I miss the leaks season it was very exciting
Now that we’ve been playing a while, what are your teams like now as opposed to what you thought they’d be? I’m still too early in the game to really have any change and still have a lot to see by curious about those that are far along of have already beaten the game.
I played Sun but wanted Lycanroc midnight and decided to go with Minior instead of waiting on my brother to train one up and trade it to me. Only change. I pretty much always plan my teams and I pretty much never change the planned team.
That’s cool. I always end up changing my teams as I learn more about Pokémon and see them in action. I didn’t think I’d like Wishiwashi but I just caught one on my Moon team and it’s great! I can trade you a Lycanroc Midnight form once I get one if you’d like
Well I try to keep track of all the Pokémon I’ve used on playthroughs so that I can use as many of them as possible as the years go on. but I’m good, thanks though! I’ve beaten the game now so I can just catch one in Vast Poni Canyon and I have Moon version waiting in reserves when I need another playthrough at some point.
I just picked up things and filled my team if it felt worthy. So these guys got drafted:
> Popplio
> A. Meowth
> Magnemite
> Abra
> Munchlax
> Dewpider
Despite evo it to Alakazam in a trade, it feels like it faints too fast and doesn’t damage enough, so I grabbed this Decidueye to replace Alakazam and it did well.
A. Meowth is the surprise of this gen. Surprisingly good Pokemon for in-game progression and a solid teammate.
-Litten(when first announced)> Primarina
– Lurantis > Tsareena
– Salazzle
– Mimikyu
– Lycanrock Moon > Sun (I like sun version more so I traded for it)
– Pikipek > Oricorio > Raichu
I intended to use:
Decidueye, Alola Ninetales, Wishiwashi, Kommo-o, Salazzle, and Midday Lycanroc
My final team was:
Decidueye, Alola Ninetales, Alola Raichu, Shiny Magmortar, Bewear, and Midday Lycanroc
You can trade eggs yes?
Yep
