Sigh 43 BP….
…this has to be some kind of sick joke from Gamefreak.
Still waiting for the Ditto bot 🙁
Same. Do we know what time it is going to come on?
Never stated a time, just said tonight.
Oh yeah, I need that. How long do you think it’ll be up before it gets removed again?
I got mine this morning, and apparently it ran for a few hours through the night before crashing, and then the guy started it up briefly again this morning, and that’s when I got mine.
What pokemon was it (and will it be the same)?
It won’t be the same. This morning was a Growlithe request.
Can you give me a heads up when it happens to go live?
I’ll mention it here as long as I’m still awake when it does!
Perfect, I appriciate it!
About to go to sleep so better not start for the next 8-10 hrs.
Since I got mine, if I can manage to get another it’ll be yours ^_^
You will be a legend if you could do that for me :).
Then I can save this BP for the Power Items.
I’m hoping I can use the BP I have from Bank xD I have nearly 1500 saved up LOL
I hope they make BP from transfer a thing still. That’d be so helpful with a living dex
Ughh to think I have over 900 Rare Candies in my X
Poll: What’s more annoying: Hordes or SOS’s?
Sos
SOS easily
SOS but I kinda still love it
I have a love/hate relationship with it. Overall, I hate it, but I love how it makes the world feel more real… Plus gotta love the shiny chain
SOS
Hordes, against the popular vote it seems.
The only really annoying thing about hordes to me is the frame rate drop.
And whenever I run into them I can never run for some reason, even though I’m usually a ton of levels higher.
Basically.
Hordes are better for EV training
SOS are better for shiny hunting
And I’d take the ladder from the two.
Hordes aren’t so much better for EV training anymore cause they buffed the EV boosting power bands.
Oh forgot about that.
Imagine hordes with the buffed power items.
You’d be done with one stat in 2 hordes
And the added benefit of being able to take out one horde with 1 attack
Yepppppp. I miss hordes. There was really no logical reason for removing them. They could just make them honey and sweet scent available only and that way SOS would still be promoted
Hopefully in Stars
That’s a canned response to any complaint now.
It’ll be in stars.
In reality nothing probably will be xD
It just provides a level of comfort for my hopes is all.
The lag tho
Seven models, with more detailed backgrounds
Fair enough, but still :/
3 providing you have Pokérus and the ‘mon you are fighting give 1 EV each. 8 (Power Item) + 1 = 9. 9 x 5 ‘mon =45. 45 x 2 (PKRS) = 90.
True, pokerus is what I was forgetting about.
If we had both buffed Power Items and Hordes, Hordes would remain better.
Yes, that’s true.
You mean latter? We should just have both and have S.O.S be unavailable in hordes. Also cut the amount of ‘mon in hordes to 4 so it doesn’t get worse with the trainer there. or have the trainer absent from the background for them.
Yeah, my bad, mistyping. xD
OK, I was a bit confused in case you meant something else I wasn’t privy to.
SOS! Seriously I hate this shit, all I wanna do is catch a Pokemon, no, the damn thing calls for help 5 times.
Geez, people sure are critical of SOS battles. I love the shiny hunting method, infinitely better than DexNav chaining or fish chaining IMO.
same
I always breed my shinies (Other than random shinies and legendary hunts) so it makes no difference to me xD
I have. . . a certain relationship with the masuda method. . . I still have flashbacks to this day. . . 2500 d*mn turtwigs. . .
Your future hunts with the shiny charm will never be as long, you paid your toll
I wasted my luck on a shiny zubat I’m afraid.
I’m wary of hunting for a shiny rowlet, I want to fully prepare my mental state first. I’ll never be fully healed from that.
Wait for the HA!
I’ll probably do that, I’m in no hurry to relive grass start shiny hunting with masuda method.
PokeRadar will always be the best chaining method imo ^-^
God no, way too complicated for my simple mind to handle.
Hahaha that’s the point! It actually required some skill to handle. The X/Y one was a lot easier than the D/P/Pt one though.
That’s for sure, I hated the gen 4 method.
But who needs skill? I just need my shinies lol.
no
Was having an irl debate with a friend. I like hordes better and they like SOS’s and I thought I’d take it to you guys. Didn’t expect much of a response, but thanks! xD
Oh welly welly well look at this Pokemon I got of WT

never forgotten to me
:O
I feel like I’m the only one who actually loves Lumineon. It’s such a unique fish, for being just another fish pokemon.
It’s shit
It’s more beautiful than milotic.
I welcome the hate.
It was one of my favorites back in the day
Competitive use doesn’t detained everyone’s opinion on it earthwad
I remember it for how nice it looks
I’ll never forget when I watched regi craftfully take out an Arceus using one.
I bet Regi can take out an arceus with anything.
Wait. What’s that thing again. Oh yea, a quick ball. I should invest in those more
I remember it because I fished a random shiny of it in White 2.
Who do you think is your most forgotten pokemon?
I thought I knew who mine was, but I forgot.
*forgotten
Probs Cherrim and Lumineon
Honestly I’d have to say Foongus.
So I’ve been in the same battle for nearly two hours
What are you chaining?
Hakamo-o
It’s shiny reminds me of Mr.Blobby :/ Good luck, hope it jumps out for you soon.
Straberry Banana smoothie.
I’m going to get one and name it “Smoothie”. xD
More like Battenburg to me http://ichef.bbci.co.uk/food/ic/food_16x9_448/recipes/battenburg_cake_60878_16x9.jpg
I’m literally just going for it for bragging rights XD
Being so rare + maybe in a Beast ball
You’re gonna need a lot of Beast Balls to catch that.
I know XD
If it calls a Kommo-o THEIF IT!!! You’ll need a razor claw, and it has a 50 percent chance to hold one.
I’ve used my one :3
Stole it off a Hakamo-o hours agonXD
Seriously? I chained for two hours and didn’t find a shiny or a razor claw, and I theifed every one.
The first Jangmo-o summoned a Hakamo-o, I Thiefed it and ran XD
YOU GOT ONE ON YOUR FIRST HAKAMO-O!?!?
Yeah XD
When I put the comment up on here I put down ‘Rip Ithsme’
Oh, didn’t even notice lol.
You really need a Butterfree with Compound Eyes at the front of your party, it increases the chance of wild hold item a lot.
Shoot, forgot. It’s battle friday! Who wants to royale with me?
Me!
I hope this is easier than last time. xD
lol online
Me
Great!
It’d Saturday here ‘w’
I would but I’m stuck in this chain rn
Battle _____day
Me
Cool, I’ll host.
I’m just going to grab some random pokemon from my boxes real quick, then I’ll get online.
So everybody check your connection, make sure you’re actually online rather than just in the plaza.
Nobody’s on, we’re off to a great start lol.
Starstorm, you’re on.
Just need Casc.
Sorry just got finished hatching eggs
That’s okay, I’m on whenever you’re ready though (i’m hosting btw)
on now
ok disconnecting and getting back on
I don’t mean to mini-mod, but can we please reduce amount of battle reactions during the battle. It makes it slightly annoying when someone not in the battle sees it all
Sure thing
Yeah, I sorta forget sometimes. I’ll try here.
We need starstorm and earthen though.
I thought I was online. I’m so confused
Earthen is the only one now
Yay I win at being connected!
SUCK IT
Only one offline I mean. 😛
lol
Wait, am I on or not
disconnect and get back online
Worst connection system ever
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!?! I just had all three of you! ;_; xD
Nope.
PSS was the best.
Yeah. :/
And now I’m missing… everyone! Someone else like to try please?
I have earthen.
And casc now, only need star.
@starstorm295:disqus FC?
we should be registered 2191-7850-5254
1934-1146-1784
I’m going to try one more time actually, if everyone gets on at somewhat the same time then it’ll work.
ok everyone disconnect and recconect
D*mn it! I had it again until starstorm disconnected! >.<
ALRIGHT I SENT IT PLEASE ANSWER NOW
IM ONLINE YES
alright alright answer!
@IntimidatingWurmple:disqus Nice picture
Note to self: add “communications” to list of things to fix in stars.
Just an improved PSS would be good. You can still have festival plaza for the other stuff.
Exactly!
TBH festival plaza and communcation should have been two seperate things entirely. FP is a cool concept, but is hindered by the horrible communications.
The PSS should’ve been part of the bottom screen in the Festival Plaza
^^^^^^^
Just in general, so you don’t even have to go there to use it. Like it already was.
@MenacingCascoon Can’t you get the Ö in the nickname section?
That fucking mermaid
Wooo GG!
Nice Win GG
Rematch?
Of course!
I figured so, I just wanted to make sure real quick. xD
So that chain I started hours ago just got screwed over by a critical Thief
Fml
False swipe is a must
My sister died and I didn’t have a revive so I had to use Thief
My sister is okay, it autocorrect ed ‘swiper’ XD
OMG got sorta scared for a second there. xD
If my sister died I’d be doing a lot more than shiny hunting XD
oh yaya a misclick -.-
Nice pokerus you’ve got there cascoon. 😉
Thanks I was so surprised when I got it
Oh it was random? That’s even cooler.
Wut

Wut am I supposed to be looking at here?
The Pokémon that can’t learn hyper beam
Oh, lol.
Salazzle should for sure.
Primarina should e-e
COME ON
SHOW ME YA MOVES
Fuck off
Behave
gg i gotta pay attention more jeez
Rematch?
Somebody ended communcation…?
I should’ve expected that a ground user would’ve switched in to neutralize thunderbolt.
Hey, this goes for everyone below me…these kind of battle comments are a little bit much. Or one word comments. I think I speak for everyone when I say this. Can you all try to limit yourselves a bit?
You clearly weren’t here yesterday, it was a ton worse.
Sorry about this, I try to limit myself but forget sometimes, I sorta get caught in the moment, you know?
Anyway, I’ll try to be more mindful. >.<
I need competitive Pokemon
Anyway I’m done, I have to go let the dogs out
Take your win and leave I see you still do that. It’s ok I have a replacement. @starstorm295:disqus and @ithsme:disquswe can keep going I have a friend who can play
I gotta get the Ditto so I can start breeding
Sure, but you’ll have to host I guess.
Oh hold on, I need the ditto. I will afterwards for sure!
Piss off Kwen
The Ditto bot is back!
For a 6 IV, get a Stufful and nickname it KetzC
Request a 91 or higher Ditto.
woo ok gottafind a stufful why’d it have to be a stuffle
omg this is amazing the stufful I found in the PC was named Buffel
Did you just forget you named it that? xD
Yes but now I feel bad I have to rename it 😛
Lol mine was named SCREE for the cry it makes.
Yes!! Also is there no way to choose nature this time?
Only Calm or Impish are available right now. That’s the one for Calm, for Impish, replace C with I
Ooh, thanks!
The only Stufful I have is Stuffykins…..
Go to the name rater in only the best city in alola!
About how long will it take for it to trade?
If you don’t have it after 15 minutes, redeposit
Everyone else panicking for their Stufful being renamed and here’s me hatching them XD
Luckily my character practically lives in Heahea city.
I’m chilling in KoniKoni 😛
Heahea is best city.
Holy crap the Stufful I forced into existence is Impish and its KetzI
I just got to Poni Island and I don’t want to play the game anymore. I’m bored. I was expecting so much more of Alola. SuMo has great characters (Lillie, Hau, Gladion) and that’s it. Team Skull are forgettable. The story is silly and uninspired. The region… Hoenn is a better tropical and diverse region! I know my opinion is very different, but that’s how I feel about the game right now. 🙁
Im glad someone else said this. It’s always how I felt. Everyone praises the story, but honestly I think the great characters blind the otherwise boring, and weird story.
By story, I mean Team Skull. It’s all just so weird. What I’ve been told, team skull steals pokemon and Aether foundation saves them to cover up Lusamine’s plan and make her seem like the good guy. Which is kinda cool, but I totally missed it while playing
I can agree with this.
I didn’t understand it until after I thought about it for a while, and even then, if the “saving pokemon” was all an elaborate ruse, then what does the aether foundation do now?
Moon golf says. They were just listening to Lusamine, and are actually good, but Lusamine was just the bad one
It still doesn’t add up though. If the main goal was to save pokemon from team skull, then what do they do now that team skull has disbanded? Or do you they just save pokemon in general?
They save pokemon in general,
It’s just in general, it’s established the moment you meet them
For example, saving Corsola from over hunting by Toxapex
Ah, I forgot about that.
The story is much deeper than any other pokemon game, I will say that. The climax was the most dissapointing part for me, but the raid of the AF was super exciting.
I loved the Climax do kinda wish that after killing all of the pokemon you battled Ultra Lusamine though. Poison/Fairy? Maybe just Poison/Rock since it is Nihiligo? Or no type at all?
Yea, I bess it helped throw poke balls better?
Nah, not just Lusamine, some employees such as Faba and some scientists were in on it.
Actually, the majority of Aether has good intentions and are doing what they think what’s right, unaware of what Lusamine, the dark side of the foundation, and Skull are doing.
Yes! The great characters compensates the poor story. I still think BW has a better plot. I know that at the end was the cliché bad guy wants to rule the world, but it really was about N, about using Pokémon as tools, about divergent ideas and points of view. SuMo is about a crazy woman and her strange kids…?
I really saw the story more of a character story than a “thing A happens then thing B happens” It is more about Lillie and Gladion and Lusamine and the other minor characters like Kukui and thats what I loved about it
I couldn’t disagree more there, but my advice, as typical as it may be, is to keep playing and you’ll enjoy it more (at least the story).
Yus, I found Starstorm in the FP, so finally it’ll be easier to organize stuff.
And earthen!
