Wishiwashi!!!!
Hey, you can walk it apparently XD
Got Mandibuzz, just need to evolve Mareannie and Grimer and thats the Melemele dex complete!
Cba to grind Vullaby because its lv14
I GTS’d as i am playing Sun. This game has an awful lot of version exclusive and trade evolution Pokemon. I have had to do a LOT of GTS trades.
Just noticed Alolan Grimer has the same color palet as a regular shiny Grimer
And Vice Versa.
I got it 😀

in a dive ball too
😀
Sometimes I’m scared of pokemon being real
In cases like this, i want to pet it
Awesome!!
How many encounters?
40 something
so lucky! Congrats man!
I had one pp left for flamethrower and i was like “Great now i gotta switch” because Sandshrew is really bulky against false swipe so it takes like 3 turns, and boom this appeared and i was like OHHHH
I think you’re proof that the shiny charm helps with SOS
Omg Goomy is a weather SOS encounter..
(Goomy noises)
Anyone want to battle on showdown?
Sure, but I gotta make a team quick, is that alright with you?
yeah
I’ll let you know when I’m ready :3
Ready! You here?
yep! name is StarStorm295
Okay!! Good luck!
Geez the League rematches are HARD! On the other hand…. Melemele Pokedex is 100% COMPLETE!
Well I told myself only one Zelda Dungeon a day…
Back to the grind….do you think Special or Physical Minior is a wiser investment….
Does anyone know if the shiny ratio actually raises as the chain gets longer, or is it constant throughout? I was under the impression that it raised, but others think it’s constant, so does anyone know the truth? Thanks.
I think it raises to a point.
It would be cool if it didn’t cap and you could get to the point where everything was shiny. xD
But you wouldn’t be able to catch all of them.
I can fully confirm now that;
– Hatching Pokemon does NOT count for the Catching Pokemon task.
Woot! i got my last UB, Kartana (by last i mean of EVERY single one) from GTS!
I just got a Lunala in a moon ball for a castform on the GTS!
Oh nice
Quick Question. Can the battle points gained through the battle tree be used at both the battle tree and battl royal?
Yes
Thanks
Yep!
Thanks.
No prob.
Zelda or Pokemon……..I want to do one…but I need to do the other….
Pokemon, of course.
Go Pokemon!
I’m at more then 400 Eevee and I have the shiny charm. Wtf Game Freak??? I’m exhausted
Can anyone trade me one leppa berry real quick? I mistakingly thought that I had one planted on Isle Aplenny and wasted them all in the chain. Thanks!
yep one sec
Thanks! 😀
I’ll give you an adamant play rough komala in return.
oooooo
getting online
Same. I’ll request.
Take the item off then trade back when I give it to you.
Sure.
Do you mean to keep turning the request down?
I had to give a pokemon the leppa berry
Oh, alright.
send the request when you’re ready
Getting online now.
Thanks again! 😀
Thanks for the Komala!!
No problem! It has a few IVs as well, hope it helps.
Hey @spectralseraph:disqus, silly request: I want my Mimikyu that you traded me to have a nickname. Can I quickly trade it back to you so you can give it the name I want and then trade it back to me? 😛
The holiday season always gets me with their dange deals. *shakes fist in air like an old angry white man*
Just purchased:
LoZ: Twilight Princess HD
Star Fox Zero
Jotun
Mario Galaxy 2
Kirby’s Return to Dreamland
Kirby Mass Attack
We bought too many games!
Now we gotta play them all
So all aboard the Steam Train!!!!
choo choo
Shit, you went on a spree
Yeaa. lol Good thing I’m an accountant and haven’t moved out yet. 😀
Haha, all is good then
Haha yea… I got baaaank. (Relative to my age and time out of college.) By the time I make the move to LA next year I should have ~15k in my savings.
Last time I went on a damn deal spree MY FUCKING BANK SUGGESTED FRAUD
Had to get a whole new card and all that crap
That would happen to you xD
I bought literally four games for 10 fucking dollars each but my fucking dipshit bank immediately calls fraud and disabled my CARD RIGHT AFTER I HAD EATEN A NICE MEAL AND HAD ZERO FUCKING MONEY TO PAY
lol that’s really funny and shitty. I feel for you.
FUNNY? DO YOU KNOW BAD THAT WAS THEY MADE ME STAY UNTIL SOMEONE PAYED UP
This holiday season is super weird for me. Usually I have a ton of games I want and just spend a ton of money, but TBH there’s no games out that I particularily want now.
I guess I’ll just save for the Switch.
This honestly has been a pretty crappy gaming year outside the obvious
That’s how I feel about the last two years. The last good game year was 2014 (at least in my opinion).
However, I feel like next year will be phenomenal, with BotW, Stars, and potentially a new mario, new MK, and new splatoon.
All aboard the 2017 hype train! We also get 3 Marvel movies next year.
And Star Wars episode 8!
And MVC4!
Hopefully on Switch otherwise not me!
Whoops
Just bring everything to switch.
Perfect solution
That’s the goal with the whole “easy to port to” thing right? Gimme EVERYTHING
Honestly? The only new non full on pokemon games I liked were B-Born, Pokken before it got irrelevant, and finally Battleborn
I’m pretty happy how few new games I want have come out. Should allow me to catch up a bit before the Switch.
Too much positivity
least favorite Alola Pokemon
Ultra beast
Alolan Form
Toucannon
Glutton
Persian
ONLY positivity allowed as long as I’m a member here!!! lol
Ummmm
Either Toxapex or Kommo-o. Both are really over designed imo.
Pheramosa probably. I don’t actually think it’s very attractive.
Persian. Yea. lol I don’t hate it though. But Nermal face didn’t do it any favors. xD
It’s like Nermal on steroids.
It’s garfielf mon
I love Kommo-o though… this depresses me
I loooove Hakamo-o. Kommo-o I’m like.. eh ok. I still like you. But oh well.
Kommo-O just looks badass
On the other hand, I’d be scared of hugging Jang to death
Kommo-o is my favorite pseudo
Exactly :3 same, and it just barely beat out Hydra
I like it’s typing a lot. And I like that it can be run as a special attacker.
I love running pokemon as things people don’t expect lol.
I have a. . . certain similar strategy in the works.
I just like special attacks so much more than physical.
Like how I started running Skill Swap Gourgeist in OU
Specs Machamp?
It’s not THAT weird.
Incineroar or Dhelmise
Phermosa
Golem
Oricorio (man, my impression of that went downhill quickly since release)
Absorption
Persian
curious what you dont like about Oricorio
Probs stats/movepool. Design wise it’s A+, but everything else sucks
Sensu especially looks good
Pom-Pom is one my friend doesn’t appreciate because of it’s cry
I like pom-poms typing, but not really how it looks
I like pom-poms typing and looks, but since it has no same-type attack until later, it quickly got replaced by A. Meowth and Magnemite…
Magnemite is awesome
I like it…. just… moveset… no
Moveset is so bad
It’s hideous
Though I will say, use three Oricorios in triple ba…. Oh wait..
They all use Revelation dance…. I learned that the hard way
Why couldn’t they give it quiver dance??? They better fix its moveset in the next games
Yep!
Fun fact… Revelation dance triggers dancer… so for revelations in one turn is a possibility
Hm. Sounds like it could be decent. I think pairing it with volcarona (quiver dance and fiery dance) could be good in doubles. Hopefully they don’t run rock slide though
I love how there are two okay Oris
One irrelevant one
And one abysmally bad one
Which is which
Ok: Sensu and Pom Pom
Irrelevant: Pau’u or however it is spelleed
Bad: Baille
That’s what I was guessing.
Yeah, too bad Baille actually really cracks me up
I wanna use it but…
It’s probs my favorite design wise unfortunately 🙁
I love Sensu most
Baille is a meme in the making tbh
Stats, I’m a competitor 🙂
Also, the lack of same-type attack for its secondary type until a high level hurts its viability for in-game as well. Might as well use Pikipek/Braviary/Vullaby…
I have to be honest, I agree to a point.
Oricorio definitely dissapointed me in game, but I feel that if I tried to use one in late game I’d like it better.
The one that we get in the third island can get revelation dance shortly, then we just gotta feed it nectar to change it to a better typing.
Now as if Game Freak thinks it’s the best one, they left the ghost for last…
Along with Pom Pom it is
Bewear
Pheromosa
Persian
Literally everything that is Part Fairy
I hate Celesteela with so much rage… WHY NOT MAKE IT GRASS/FLYING AND WEAK TO ICE
And finally EVERY SINGLE ONE, THEY WERE LAZY RESKINS TO AVOID MAKING NEW POKEMON
Not really though? Many of them had really creative origins. But I guess its just your opinion and i did ask so what am I doing
Alola is personally almost as bad as the Hoenn region
Because we’re permanently in that state of lack luster Pokemon and a gimmick to trick the public into getting new ones i.e. Region variants which quickly became reskins instead of environmental changes
Whoaaaah. Hoenn was great
Please ORAS was pandering
Im with Earthen on that Emerald was better
Just trying to cram megas into it
At least it gave Lopunny a mega my favorite mega
No, all the Megas made my life a constant hell
Every single one
Beedrill?
Yep
And THEY RUINED CAMERUPT
Its design got better though at least
WHO FUCKING CARES ABOUT DESIGN U IDIOT
IF IT CANT LAST TO A SINGLE ATTACK WITHOUT CARRYING ITS USELESS
Wasn’t it always bad? I never saw it even before it got a Mega
A mega could’ve helped because in this fucking water dominated world a Fire/Ground type lasts only seconds and it can’t even tank a Earthquake without investing
It should’ve gotten Drought to at least try to resist water then it could have Insta Solarbeams
But nope, it got the raw deal while the shark gets a free speed boost and boosted fangs
And to add on, a buff this gen by getting psychic fangs
Well competitive viability isn’t always important to everyone.
Megas rock. 🙂
Some of them were super unnecessary though
Eeeeh. I mean. I guess maybe. But I’m big fan of Megas/Alolans/new evos. I don’t really have a preference. I just like it when old Pokémon get something new.
If it only had frontier
I seriously loved ORAS. Clocked in a lot of hours on AS. And the franchise is so big and long lasting now that the franchise is always going to have a certain level of pandering now.
ORAS didn’t pander enough, imo.
(Shaking violently)
Flygon
Flygon
Every other dragon… BUT NOT FLYGON BECAUSE Y’KNOW
Flygon and Milotic I thought were shoo ins. -_-
Everyone wanted them
…At least flyboi now has D-dance.. but I still want a mega
Stupid Metagross and Salamence didn’t fucking need them.
Actually, I honestly don’t think they were as bad as a certain other mon who got two….
I’m just saying pseudos def don’t need them. If they aren’t good enough with a 600 BST, either redistribute stats or give them a better movepool.
Obviously
All I’m saying is, Mewtwo says hi
Yeah I think mega legends are kinda dumb
Rayquaza should have just been a primal and had to hold the Jade orb which was created for a reason
It needs Sand Stream as a HA and a Mega with Sand Force
I like most of them more than originals TBH. They mostly all improvments on the designs of older pokemon and I like that
^^^^^^
Pokemon aside, the region itself is really nice
Hey, Ribombee is cool. Tapu Koko is also great for catching mons.
I want to rip its god damn head off and cram it back into its neck hole
And the Tapus are nothing but a everlasting headache
Wait, whose head are we ripping off
Anyone’s, I’m not happy atm
Hopefully Bulu
Yes,
Bulky as fuck
Grassy terrain heals on top of leech seed and boosted Horn Leech
Literally only Gengar or Salazzle ends it before it does serious damage
Y’know a pokemon you’d love Earthen?
Nihilego
It kills Bulu with Max investment in HP and Special Attack in a single hit, it is the ULTIMATE fairy murdering machine
Hmmmmm well it’s a Rock type…..I rarely turn down those
I dunno I still fear the constant overbearing threat of Earthquake
True, but it can kill anything that doesn’t resist it once you get it running
ESPECIALLY with a specs set, it’s terrifying
A problem easily solved by Air Balloon…
Least fave Mon: Incineroar… wait did you say Tou….. (Breathing heavily)
I honestly like all of them but Pheramosa who has boring design
Please burn Dugtrio with fire
TOUCANNON LOVE
MY BOI TOUCANNON 😀
SHINY TOUCANNON THOUGH
EXACTLY!!
Dhelmise
01
Dugtrio
Why do people use Dazzling Gleam over Moon Blast?
They dumb
Assuming people are smart, either the mon doesn’t learn the latter, or for AOE in doubles.
Answer? FREAKING TAPU KOKO CAN’T LEARN F**KING PLAY ROUGH!!! WHY?!
Tapu Koko only has 2 great physical moves. Brave Bird and Wild Charge. :p
It can pivot with U-Turn though. Choice Band Tapu Koko is a pain to deal with. 🙂
Timid Koko is actually an option and it has tons of coverage…
I run Timid
I want it to get Play Rough and Zip Zap
I DESPISE recoil moves
I’m going to try to make a Jolly work (that’s what mine is).
I wish
Wish what?
Jolly could work
Tapu Koko @ Choice Band
Electric Surge
Jolly Nature
EVs: 252 Atk, 252 Spe, 4 Def
> Wild Charge
> Brave Bird
> U-Turn
> Quick Attack/Giga Impact
Would coverage matter if you hit real hard with Wild Charge? All you need to do is eliminate enemy ground types and volt absorbs and you basically win…
Stars might have tutor moves though… Superpower or Leaf Blade will do.
I was so happy that I got it without reseting, I thought that was the best. Ugh. xD
Aww man 🙁
See the set I posted. 🙂
I might try that, thanks! 😀
Convenience?
Dazzling gleam is a TM right?
I mean competitivly
Yeah, that’s what I meant too.
If it’s an egg move, then people who are super lazy (aka me in gen 6) would got dazzling gleam.
Any good Primarina sets?
Growl
Psych up
Sleep talk
And Work up
Toxic Orb is a must
Earthen plz
I’m in a really bad mood
D: sorry to hear that
Honestly I’d go for a tanky set over an offensive set.
The standard is
Specs
Scald
Energy Ball
Psychic/Ice Beam
Moonblast
What’s your play time so far?
Mine is 102:21
only 73:06
It took me 60 hours to enter the hall of fame though.
Upper 100 area
161:34
And I barely have any competitive bred mons!
Yo I’ve got time for one OU battles on showdown rn. Hmu.
yo
yo you up for one?
yo yep i’ll send the challenge
cool cool
Are there no bonus PC box backgrounds?
Nope.
Ugh, that sucks.
I like to use those to denominate special boxes.
Same, always a nice post game addition.
Another reason I hate sun and moon
Why would they forgo something like that we had them for years
Might I remind you of gyms?
Also I’m surprised you hate SM, they’re some of the best games in the series.
It denied me so much while giving to everyone
Same with ORAS
Gamefreak is certainly out to get you, Earthen..
So is my life, another insanely sad miserable depressing year and next year is just going to be worst
There has to be something you’re looking forward to.
Please the only reasons keeping me from offing myself is Breath of the Wild and Yooka-Laylee
It also included finding someone but let’s say consummating will be extremely undesirable…
Being alone is better.
Yep except when you have to take care of everything while your lazy siblings just hide away in their respective dens leaving me with all the work
Move out then
I have no money because I have to give half of what I make into paying student loans which is basically a gigantic waste of time energy and my parents money JUST FOR 2 EXTRA YEARS OF HIGHSCHOOL CLASSES THEY EVEN BUMPED ME OUT OF THE ART PROGRAM BECAUSE OF A FILING MISTAKE
I’m sorry, that’s rough.
It truly just never stops for me or my family
Your no-legends and anti-fairy policy is just hurting you. I’d just let it go. 🙂
There is no way in all seven layers of Hell I would just let something like this go
Your loss
*hugs Mimikyu*
So we’re hugging fairies now? Or ghosts? Because I have a ghost I’d cuddle the shit out of
I would toss that thing in a brick filled bag of nerve gas and toss it down a river not only will it drown it’s gonna suffocate
Super training, Reset Bag, Perilous Juice, O-powers, Battle Frontier, Contests, Musicals, Pokestar Studios, Challenge Mode, (farmable) Apricorn Balls, Dream World, Seasons, Dexnav, Friend Safari, Secret Bases, Battle Institute…
Sort of a formula at this point.
I’m almost convinced that it’s to sell remakes (exclusives features to that gen).
At least everything else makes up for all that somewhat
And then 75% will be gone in gen 8.
This is EXACTLY why I love 3rd games! We get all of the new exclusive features of the originals but they also polish the entire thing and add some old features. They’re masterpieces.
i didnt like gen 3
(cri)
Don’t care about juice, musicals, studios, battle institute or friend safari.
The rest I really miss.
Perilous Juice = instant reset bag for just combining Kee + Maranga Berry
Alright, that’d be really nice right about now
If there are any, they better not make it a trainer passport completion thing.
