Cant believe I have to wait till June for Breath of the Wild -,-
Was it confirmed to be delayed
Nope. haha
Ehm there were rumors of it being pushed back to September, but from what I heard its still due for summer 2017.
It just hit me… Marshadow… is a Shadow Boxer..?
Okay, can someone tell me what the hell is the deal with the forced Wishiwashi encounters on Brooklet Hill? I was going to catch the first one (lv. 17), but I defeated it, saved after and screwed up that encounter.
As such, I’m trying to catch the second one (lv. 18). And wtf?! It calls for help 100% of the time, even at full health & paralyzed, starting from turn 1. I tried to catch it before it could call for help by throwing a Net Ball at it right away. Well, it has a catch rate of 60, so no luck there (only managed to capture it once but it had bad IVs). I decided to catch one of the allies.
Weird thing: even though the original Wishiwashi is always calling for help, if you kill it after it calls an ally, the ally alone doesn’t call for help (or if it does, it does so very rarely). Another weird thing: the allies it calls are either always male or always female (again, it does seems so). That’s actually okay, cause I want a male one, so I just reset until the allies it calls are always male.
But that brings me to the next problem: Synchronize is not working on the allies. I know that for chaining allies, you need the Synchronizer on the field and the first pokemon in your party (fainted or not) with the nature you want. So, now I have a quiet nature fainted -mon in the 1st slot and my Kadabra on the field. I caught a few of them (5 or 6) to test and none of the allies had the quiet nature. Like, why? It worked before on a previous chain. What’s the problem with this encounter? Did they programmed it this way on purpose?
I know I can fish for one after the trial, but a random encounter is not as good as a forced one and I already wasted the first adrenaline orb you get in the game (route 4) on that other chain I did and I don’t feel like waiting until the third trial to be able to buy more. By that time, I won’t need the wishiwashi anymore. Is there any way around this? I thought about chaining the allies until the ones with 4 perfect IVs appear, catch one of those and then breed, but how am I going to check the IVs of the baby at this point in the game?
Yeah, catching those forced encounters is really hard. That’s what I tried to do for my wishiwashi, but ended up killing them all on accident. I would just wait until after the trial honestly to catch a wishiwashi. That’s what I did and I didn’t have any synchronizer so it was tricky. But as far as catching one with good IV’s, I would just wait till you beat the main quest and get to the battle tree to worry about IV’s. You can catch or breed a better wishiwashi later since there’s really no way to check at that point in the game. I think I settled with a Quiet natured Wishiwashi (don’t know how many IV’s yet) and the thing is still a beast. It can tank so many shots.
I must’ve got damn lucky because I didn’t have as much trouble as some of you did lol
I think I caught one of the forced encounter ones but its nature was bad enough that I felt the need to search for another 😛 But it took me like 18 wishiwashi till I got a quiet one from fishing
I wanted to catch it now so I wouldn’t have to do it later. I know we don’t need to care much about natures and IVs to beat the game, but I try to get good pokémon anyway.
Wait….are you talking about the Wishiwashi that you encounter during Lana’s Trial? If so you can’t catch them. During a Trial you aren’t allowed to catch Pokemon so those Wishiwashi aren’t for sale unfortunately lol
No, you can catch those wishiwashi that she asks you to investigate. The trial doesn’t actually start until right before you battle totem wishiwashi
Oooooooooooh!! I guess I didn’t think of that. It never crossed my mind as I didn’t have any intention of using Wishiwashi. Wow. The more you know, right? lol
I’m talking about the 2 Wishiwashi you fight before the totem Wishiwashi, which you can, in fact, catch.
MAGEARNA IS AVAILABLE!
But you have to wait until after you become Champion to actually collect it in the game…
So, is that bs for real? To clarify, can we download it before beating the game, and collect it after or do we also have to beat the game to simply download it?
I think you can scan it now but once you become Champion you can go back to Hau’oli City and get it
Makes perfect sense.
I’m kinda sad we never got that scorpion legendary that everyone was predicting there to be Dx
Side note: I feel like Necrozma will be able to transform sort of like genesect can in a future game. Its body is just so weird looking.
It would be cool if Necrozma has another form that is a scorpion and gains the Poison typing and learns Poison-type moves next generation or the sequel/third installment of the 7th gen games.
It’ll be based on the constellation, Scorpio.
Finally! Three days of hunting! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/92a25bd47fcc5104b645b97759f0ec74d06539b1347bf25201f55f1ec8e9d481.jpg
Congrats!
Thanks! Finally my first sun and moon shiny!
Everyone getting Shinies by the day…..
Still haven’t seen any on my watch….
Bruh I only got 3 shinies in my whole life and 2 of them date back to gen 4. Stop moaning
It’s because they’re trying, and using a method that has ridiculously high odds.
Just have to keep at it and don’t give up!
Magearna’s North American QR code available on Serebii
Im so disappointed in you all. Magearna is so great 🙁
I think it’s fine 😛
Someone tell me good nature for Magearna, I assume Modest?
Depends. I’m going for calm
I’ll do both then since I have Sun and Moon in my possession
I was gonna do modest.
Got my Magearna QR code scanned. I hope they do more like this. It was so easy, plus it adds to the Island scanner bar. So much easier and more useful than having to “download” The Pokemon from a WiFi signal/internet signal.
Does Magearna unlock anything in game? Any NPC’s who will comment on it and tell you about it and stuff?
There should be an event where you have to bring it to Po Town and it uses the Soul Heart to restore the place to its former glory it once was, a glorified Azoth Kingdom.
I’m kinda pissed we can’t spruce up Po Town. Post game it’s a 100% useless place

How come those models look so good? Is it a PC hack?
It’s a hack, they removed the lines.
Giving us a taste of what Pokemon will look like on the Switch.
Eh I don’t think they’ll remove all the lines as that’s part of Pokémons’ style. However it will look smoother like this yeah.
You like that? I think they look bad without lines.
I agree, they look kinda unfinished
MAR-BABY
I prefer its’ regular colours but I like how it’s shiny colour is only visible in its’ attack.
Its so cuuuute
guess sunday was my luck day lol. shiny pichu taking forever
Give it to me. I am the self-proclaimed owner of all Pichu’s, Pikachu’s and Raichu’s
but i dont have one yet 🙁
I hereby claim every shiny Pichu, Pikachu or Raichu acquired in the future. I am the Electric master on this platform
NO IM TOO FAR IN
Lucky you
I’ve yet to find one
a pichu?
A shiny, I misclicked and killed the caller when I had a 500 chain
Here’s Sandygast’s QR code for those who want it https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/435f1990202d93b50847b9e7a205a976bd5d78406acfa05a97dbc2cb3298f2f3.jpg
So if we scan this we will get a Shiny Sandygast? Is that how this QR thing works?
No not this one. but it adds it to your pokedex and a point to your island scan so you can get rare pokemon
I just got Magearna, but what do you nickname a Magearna?! I haven’t nicknamed a Mythical Pokemon since Victini in Black!
I’m making it different this time around and doing something that I almost never do–naming legendaries. That includes the tapus and UBs.
Nvm, named it Victoria. It has Modest Nature with perfect sp atk, atk, and def. everything else is decent. SR?
Going to pretend you didn’t just pull a perfect nature on the first try
Lol, no I had a syncro Abra first in party. I wish I was that lucky.
Oh XD
So should I SR the IVs? I know there’s bottle caps, but they are so rare.
If you have modest ab I don’t see why not
Can I use Quick Link to trade between both my 3DS systems?
Yes
Thanks. Makes things a lot easier
That’s exactly what Quick Link is for lol
Remember my shiny pikpek hunt?
I got around 500 in, misclicked and killed the pokemon when it didn’t call for help
I cri evry tim. ;_;
Why does everyone else get so lucky?
Not me, shiny Type: Null evades me like the plague.
I have not chained a shiny successfully even once
Seen as the QR code is region locked, I hope some kind person with the Pokemon TV App uploads it somewhere
I imagine Serebii will have it.
Just got to 50% on my Alolan dex! 😛 I know people who are already at 100%, but that hasn’t been my priority lately. What is everybody else at?
42%
46%
I just let WT help with some patches
Lucky with that. All breeding rejects that I’ve WT’d away I’ve gotten nothing but early route fodder in return.
I never even caught a Yungoos myself
Still on 38%, im capturing the UBs rn
I just finished capturing all the UBs. It’s amazingly easy with the Beast Balls. Unless you SR for the right nature and IVs, of course…
Yeah, Beast balls are OP and you get quite a bunch of them, i also dont worry about IVs and stuff
It’s almost impossible to win at battle tree without a competitive team and it’s almost impossible to get the destiny knot cause it requires Battle points. Trying to get it with pick up but all I can find is sun/moon stones and rare candies
You and me both with Destiny Knot struggles…however, I’ve done pretty well in the Battle Tree with the Snorlax, Oricorio (Electric) and Minior from my playthrough team. I use Feather Dance a couple times, then I send in my Minior to Shell Smash and SWEEP! :0
My first battle at tree had a rotom-w with substitute, confuse ray, double team and charge beam. I knew I would have lost after the first double team.
Ehh, that set is too gimmicky and luck-reliant. Not worth it for Battle Tree.
I got blown back first time by someone’s Walrein. I had Decidueye, Mandibuzz, and Golisopod. Mursharna was first, and anticipating a Psychic-type move, I switched to Mandibuzz, aptly named Kabula due to the eyelashes. Then they switched to Walrein for a stall/sweep.
Needless to say, while I still love Walrein, I despise anyone’s Walrein running Stockpile, Rest, Snore, and Frost Breath holding a Chesto berry.
>:V <– angriest duck face possible.
So I don’t know why I would even consider this but how does this Pyukumuku set sound
Impish
A solid 252 Defense and 252 Sp Defense
Taunt
Toxic
Light Screen or Safeguard
Counter
I just finished my competitive Pyukumuku 🙂
Impish @ Leftovers
Unaware
252 HP, 252 Def (rest in SpDef)
-Toxic
-Recover
-Counter
-Taunt
I didn’t even have to breed it. I just chained a bunch of them and the one I caught had perfect nature and IVs :’)
Well laddifriggingda
The only Pyukumuku is my pet one….Pyuky…
Seriously I think their stupidly adorable

I love Pyukumuku. It’s so derpy.
And one of the best cries ever!
Agreed •*•
I just can’t resist

I just love this pic
But…there’s a Cutiefly in it! :0 Lolz
I named my Cutiefly Cheeto. Yes I did.
It looks like a flying Cheetos Puff without the flavoring.
Love it. I want to make a competitive utility Ribombee and name it Tinkerbell.
D’awesome!
And I’ll have several Aggron ready to crush it into oblivion
Who doesn’t
YEEEEESSSSS!! EARTHEN I AGREE THEY’RE STUPIDLY CUTE
Most people run Baton and Recover on it
Earthen isn’t most people though 😉
True, but it’s the best to run
Recover so you don’t die at the wrong time
Baton pass for a switch out if the person is too scared to attack you
Imagine being too scared to attack a sea cucumber
Trust me, it’s a thing
Where can you get more luxury balls?
Route 8 PMC i think
Ok thanks
Found it lol it was on route 2
Just found the destiny know through pick up. Oh yeah!
So apparently Z-Hypnosis increases the users speed for some reason….
Maybe for slower Hypnosis users to lull opponents to sleep, then gain a boost in speed so that they don’t wake up when they use Dream Eater? Idek and idec.
Some chode tried to Zypnotize my Seismitoad just to Belly Drum for a quick win
BIIIIIG mistake because I let sand eat away damage into a clean Ice Shard, funny thing he had a Darmanitan and somehow even a sheer force Flare Blitz didn’t KO Mamoswine after SR
He gave up because of that
Lol, serves him right.
Pics or it didn’t happen
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7pokebankou-490304681
The other guy uses a mythical. 10/10 fraud
I think Lele its legendary, not mythica
What should I shiny hunting next? Any ideas?
Lurantis, Toxapex, or Araquanid lines
Toxapex would be nice if think I might go for that or Minior
Salazzle if you’re feelin lucky. Use a cute charm male though
Dang can you imagine! that would make my day but I don’t think I have the patience or time for that one lol
