Niantic has officially announced the Pokémon GO Travel event!
From now until to November 26th, trainers across the globe must work toward the goal of collectively catching 3 billion Pokémon in Pokémon GO! As the week progresses, and more ‘mons are caught, rewards will start to roll out: At 500 million Pokémon caught we’ll get 2x Experience, 6 hour Lure Modules and an increase of worldwide spawns. At 1.5 billion, we’ll get the previosuly mentioned bonuses plus 2x Stardust and even more increased spawns. And if we reach our goal of 3 billion we’ll get all the aforementioned rewards plus Farfetch’d will spawn worldwide for 48 hours (Kangaskhan will spawn in East Asia as compensation)!
If the below infographic isn’t your style you can check out the fun video Niantic put together for the event, or read their official blog post.
In main game news, (much to our surprise) Pokémon Bank is already compatible with Pokémon Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon! Requiring 516 block, version 1.4 of the application is now available for download via the eShop. Along this, compatibility for transfers from Pokémon Gold & Silver can now be made in Poké Transporter.
What will be the first Pokémon your transfer to your new Ultra Sun or Ultra Moon games? Excited to finally add Farfetch’d to your Pokédex in GO?
Just add all of gen 3 already
Of course the day I go back to showdown I get nothing but bad match ups and a hefty 5 in a row losing streak
STRENGTH SAP IS BULLSHIIIIIIT
It’s only distributed to weak grass mons lol
That may be so but I had the displeasure to deal with a Jumpluff on my PU team
According to serebii, you can’t bank the totem sized mons based on USUM totems, but the SuMo sized totems are a-okay. I’d imagine this is an oversight as new Lycan, Pikachu and Ultra Beasts are all bankable and it’d be weird if only a few can transfer forward
Maybe Totem Sized Pokemon will be available in Gen 8 too.
In a outrageous fury I incinerated that wimpy Totem Ribombee, didn’t even try to fight back it just spammed quiver dance
Wow, it was a tricky one for me, well done~
At first I tried to use Inferno Overdrive but the SOB had a fire berry thingy
But in the end

*clap clap*
I applaud your strength this time~
THIS TIME!?!?
It ran away from a flaming fursuit?
If you consider being reduced to a charred pile of slag running then yes
‘slag’
stony waste matter separated from metals during the smelting or refining of ore
I don’t think you know what that word means…
All that matters I inflicted major pain to a oversized bee fly
Visual pain maybe with your ugly ass team
It ran away from a predator shooting flames from its crotch. Don’t blame it.
Good Morning Everyone! Just got to St. Louis nearly 3 hours before my interview day. Anyone familiar with this town know about something that I can do?
My mom used to live in St. Louis, if she was here, i would ask… Sorry deer, she is at work…
Snow Problem.
.__. I landed a critical capture on Necrozma with a pokeball….at full health
Lucky you
On my way to Acerola’s Trial! This game is so amazing and fun! Team Update (only missing one more member):
Noibat Lv 39
Infernape Lv 38
Primarina Lv 40
Totem Lurantis Lv 37
Dusk Lycanroc Lv 38
Also how many totem stickers has everyone collected so far? I think I just got to 65
I just realized it’s Insane how quickly Ash’s Noivern evolved from an egg 0 _0
I didn’t watch all of the Kalos anime so i just looked it up. That was a short amount of time! Kinda rushed imo
Yes. He got him very late in the series
I’ve got 30 almost there to getting the totem I want to use
……I finally blacked out, some stupid Focus Blast missed Tyranitar
Whelp time to get muh shiny charm. Gonna be fun playing through the majority of the game with the charm. Maybe I’ll actually run into a shiny by accident.
After an hour of SR I dun got me a Timid Necrozma
Use synchronise it’s way faster
Kind of upset some of the totem sized Pokemon are blocked by bank. I hope it’s just a glitch and will be fixed since a few of them are able to get up there. I don’t want to have to ditch my planned totem once gen 8 comes out.
Does it honestly matter?
It’s not like your gonna be using them outside USUM
Are you planning on sending it anywhere else?
And Gen 8 is literally ages away so what bother getting in a tizzy now
People like taking their teams forward in case they reset, using them in side activities, and just having them for sentimental value.
And competitive.. it’s like using a shiny. We don’t just restart every gen.. that’s what bank is for.
I like keeping my teams whole when I transfer up. I always bring all my teams with me when new gens start. Doesn’t amtter if I use them or not.
You can’t transfer them because gen 8 likely won’t have totem Pokémon, so there’s no point in transfering them.
I don’t know how hard it would be to make some Pokemon bigger than others… It’s like owning a shiny. They already do something similar with pumkaboo. Their totem status would be irrelevant then.. they can just give it a Ribbon showing it previously was.
I say all of this with no interest in owning one.
I just don’t think they will keep the concept of Totem Pokémon and will want to do something new. It’s technically possible, but they will creatively decide against.
I really couldn’t see a good reason why…. But yeah. Their choice.
You can bank the ones introduced in Sun and Moon, which means they’re most likely transferable. That’s why people think it’s weird.
U could catch sun moon totems?? I never finished game
Totem sized Pokémon based on Sun and Moons totems is what I mean
Hmm, don’t know about that, maybe there’s a glitch and you aren’t supposed to be able to bank any of them?
I hope they allow all them to go on, people use them in teams and you don’t need to totems to have totem sized mons especially if they reuse the same models next Gen again
The point is I like having all my teams together. If I can’t transfer up then it feels like I’m leaving something behind

Exactly….it breaks my heart…..
“Gamefreak was very nervous about doing any kind of radical departure for Pokemon, they sell so well why would you mess with that? Apparently, Breath of the Wild’s reception and the reaction to Mario at E3 was so overwhelmingly positive that it convinced them that they need to make the next Pokemon game as disruptive as those two games were. That it’s going to be as big of an innovation as those two games were.”
Added link
YES OH MY GOD YES
THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I WANT FROM POKÉMON SWITCH
I mean it is really shitty hat it’s confirmed that was the attitude at game Freak but YEEEEEE
https://gonintendo.com/stories/295979-the-pokemon-company-teases-project-eevee-to-be-revealed-tomo
Gen 8 to contain solely Eeveelutions, including the starters and cover legends.
I wouldn’t complain
Real talk tho, gen 8 better give me my Ghost & Dragon eevelution
Meh.. probably some phone thing or whatever.. I won’t be very interested in
New Eevee plush line! Or mobile app.
O-Powers & Mantine Surf are the best things in USUM man
Well I dun beat the champ
Each of my Pokemon counted the opposing Pokemon perfectly
Congrats. now go get a shiny
I’m still deciding what I wanna hunt for first
I was thinking a Shiny Grubbin for Ultra Moon
What ball should i use to catch Necrozma?
A black one
Dusk or Luxury then?
Luxury because Necrozma doesn’t suit the green at all
Luxury because Lux means light so that fits as well.
I say premier cuz it likes light…
Oops premier.. tho you’ll likely Never catch it in this .. lol
I just used an ultra
All that mattered it was Timid
…….BWAHAHHAHAHAAH ULTRA BALL ULTRA NECROZMA AHAHHAHHAHAH
Spoilers
I beast balled one ;3
Chewie the tyrunt finally evolved :3
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7ou-662236108
Stakataka!!!!
The new backgrounds, something really dumb is that they can only be used by Pokémon from that region
Fire Starters of Old https://imgur.com/gallery/wJKZE
That is rather dumb :/
why is gen 6&7 so full of stupid limitations like that
Final Results
Incineroar 64
Lycanroc 61
Komodo-o 69 (it was traded so it leveled fast)
Crabominable 61
Mudsdale 62
Golisopod 61
Game time: 41:57
Time to soak in the sights, collect TMs and Stickers and focus on moving stuff from Sun to here, and to get deeper into ultra space
‘The game was easy’
Is super overlevelled
Champion has Pokemon levels 58-60 no? So not that overleveled, except Kommo-o
He was overleveled for the entire game
Do you not have to work or something? How did you put 42 hours into a game that came out not 3 days ago? Also, why?
My fall schedule is screwy and it’s usually like only tues, thurs sometimes fri (they’re dicks and barely give me decent days)
And it was the weekend and I’ve put in a week of chores, exercise and yardwork to get those days free
And are you serious? I’ve been playing it nonstop
Honestly I just don’t see the appeal in essentially speed running a game. I like to take it all in.
Same. I got it on release day. I’ve clocked 6 hours and haven’t even finished MeleMele yet. I’ve been taking my sweet time 🙂
I just beat the water trial
I don’t see it as a speed run if he took 42hrs.
Seriously how much playtime does it take to complete a Pokemon game? Just curious. Some of the older games were easily completed in under 24hrs.
He just had the whole weekend off and spent it playing the game.
I guess binging would be a more appropriate term here 😛
DUDE
WTF
Y’all sound like leveling up is wrong, is it my fault I fight everyone I see
Dude i have 3 traded mons in my team & none of them are overleveled and i’m getting close to the E4.
https://twitter.com/animalcrossing/status/932443429337948160
Aw yeah, baby!
I hope Isabelle is excluded from whatever main series animal crossing game is next
>:0
How dare you
She’s a little bitch
No like, literally.
Hehe 🙂
As expected, this is project Eevee
http://www.pokemon.co.jp/info/2017/11/171121_cm01.html
I never realized how good Gladion’s battle theme is
^^^
What I really like about USUM is that the level curve for bosses feels like old Pokémon games when you done have the EXP Share on
Aren’t the totem pokemon the exact same levels as they were in SM though..?
Their call Pokémon combos and movesets make them way stronger
Yeah looking at those I actually do like the call pokemon they chose this time around
Slight level curve increase that’s more noticeable come Ula’ula
Gotcha, I can’t say yet. Still on Akala
I have the exp share on and it’s still really challenging. Bosses regularly knock out half my team
It’s honestly very refreshing for the bosses to be challenging. Yes it’s frustrating at times, but I can’t remember the last time I was frustrated with a Pokemon game because but was hard haha
Oh BS! Why at 3 billion does East Asia get compensation when they already get so much
The U.S. in Go really is on the losing end of the spectrum
-During the event back in July we got one area where all regionals can be found, while Europe got like 10 different events that lasted a few days and Japan also got them
-We get a dinky Farfetch’d to fill the dex, Japan gets Kangaskahn a Pokémon people would actually use
-Japan got the Pikachu festival, we got back nothing
Why does Go hate us?
Don’t forget Europe already got the Safari Zone event…nothing for the US.
Role reversal! Finally!
Europe gets better preorder stuff for the main games that actually matter tho 😛
Either way we’re still sh*t on when you compare to what Japan gets.
Yeah exactly
-Ho-Oh is much more powerful than Charizard from the movie event
-They got Marshadow months ahead of us
-Gets every event (and when another place gets an event, they get something twice as good)
-Japan gets at least 30 event Pokémon a year, that’s at least twice as much as the other countries combined
Exactly! I think that people saying Europe isn’t excluded are a bit wrong
They get tons of Worlds event Pokémon, US gets one at max.
Oh or the fact GF gave us Charizard, gave Japan event Ho-Oh to compensate -.-
We never got good event distributions and we were usually the last of Jap/America/Europe to get the games
Quit complaining now that you finally know how it feels ?
It’s just stupid GF doesn’t go the extra mile for anyone other than for their own people
Pokemon go and preorders probably aren’t GameFreak tho
Those are the least of it, look at the events they give to Japan
Because it’s their home country and it has a crap ton of celebrations. Of course they’re gonna have bias
I’m just saying I don’t think it’d be hard for them to put at least some of them up for wifi events
Yes Europe got no event for the Pikachu, but think
Ho-Oh v.s. Charizard is not a fair trade of in any way
??? Europe got the exact same Pikachu event as America???
You did? I must have forgotten that
But when I choose you was coming about a month in advance America got Charizard to promote it, about a month after the movie in Japan, they got Ho-Oh as a promotional event. This sounds quite unfair
It was a boring ho-oh with nothing special
So was the Charizard…
Why does it matter tho? The Charizard has more practical uses
It doesn’t just venting (I failed a math test and my venting is… I guess this :P)
You got Gold steelbook cases for USUS… We got a keychain…
Hence why I used past tense
I love how Leech Seed just breaks the totem battles lol
Any status that gradually leeches health does… It’s beautiful.
Especially when you also leech the call Pokémon :3
Okay, buy why does Hapu even need my help with dealing with two skull Grunts when she has a big ass Mudsdale that could just curbstomp the both of them?
because her mudsdale isn’t Earthens
Still probably trash tho >.>
Hapu doesn’t use the Exp share
Be like Hapu
I am like Hapu
Nah, I hate her
You hate everything nice apparently
He hates Incineroar so it’s evident he hates everything nice
I don’t hate Incineroar, but it’s so disappointing design-wise. I used one in Moon and it was good and I used it competitively and it wasn’t bad. But like compare it to the perfection that is Torracat and try and tell me it’s a better design 😛
Inci disappointed me as a Litten evo, but I feel like Torracat had enough hints of becoming bipedal that it didn’t bug me. I love it as an individual tho
Glad to know im not the only one who likes Incineroar!
I just don’t like the female characters from SM. They’re all either bad/boring/unexplored…except Lillie.
I guess but like.. Hapu is nice
And Lusamine is awesome?
Lillie really is just the best character though.
Lusamine in SM was not great. I still don’t understand her motivations or even her goals. Her design was good though, and her fusion form is super cool.
So do you
Ms.I hate Toucannon ?
She said everything nice
Not every average thing
I should have thought before posting again….
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=72t2_jpe7Jc
You hate like most things too
Just as much as Ultron if not more
Lol nah
:]
Okay, I just throw the word “hate” around a lot. There are only a handful of things in pokemon I actually hate. Maybe.
Haha well i guess it’s good to be critical at times too :]
I started my idea for my collage project in design
I call it “A Toucan’s Bliss” a.k.a. Toucannon irl
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/22c942bf2e59708eca7ba5f74d1380cb36d9b34686dc741900dbbac180a4bc02.jpg
What is this…toucan of which you speak
Toucannon’s bliss
Never used Tou in SM but plan to in USUM and have just realised I really really like it!
What are your thoughts on Incineroar
Haha I get the feeling you will not appreciate them 😛
What ball for Solgaleo?
Premier Ball for the whiteness
Repeat Ball just to match the sun like pattern
Luxury Ball because it just looks nice
Timer Ball because it shares Solgaleo’s colour palette
I caught mine in Heavy because the blue bubbles matched its’ faceplate and I felt it went well with the Steel typing.
Good suggestion for future playthroughs, already caught it in a Timer tho but i’ll remember it.
Do you need the new ultra beasts in order to get the shiny charm?
yes
Butts
OK glad with that bank update that was quick! I can get two of my breeded mons over to USUM.
Can’t say who they are except they are 2 of my most iconic and extremely powerful partners that I used regularly in Johto! ?
Can you guys guess who they are??
Not really because that criteria includes 200+ Pokémon :0
You’re right!
Ok they are 2 of the stronger non legendary mons you can get in Johto.
One is extremely hard to evolve the other you only get one but very early.
Each compliment each other very well typing wise.
That’s my attempt at a riddle haha xD
Ampharos, Houndoom?
Good try but much stronger like these two mons at least one are arguably strongest mon you can use in Johto:P
Tyranitar, togekiss
You’re almost there.
The mons are a little more colourful though in design 😛
Are they Johto native?
One is the other isn’t.
The colour blue is common in their evolution line.
You should easily get them now!
Feraligatr & Porygon?
Feraligatr ?
The second is much stronger than Porygon. Arguably strongest non legend 😛
Tyranitar.
Very closee 😛
VolcaronaDragonite
Yeahhhhhh ?
Well done dude, for that you get an early copy of DP remakes!
I love what they done to Mount Lanakila. It actually feels like Victory Road now, sort of.
Wow can’t wait 2 see it for myself
Wait…can you not battle the trial captains anymore in USUM?? I can’t find Ilima in his house.
you have to battle all the captains as part of Mina’s trial on Poni
That’s awesome
hm. I kinda liked how it was in SM, but I guess that’s okay
Its extra exp & thats never a bad thing i guess
Usual comment about not playing Go. Also yay Bank! This’ll make things much easier when I get USUM.
When you planning to get them?
Not sure, I need to before the Rockruff event ends, I just need to make sure I have the money.
…..I found Guzzlord’s domain…I don’t have the words…
My game is gone… I transferred my mons… years worth of comp mons down the drain…
??
I lost Ultra moon somewhere and I’ve been looking for almost an hour…
how is that even possible
What do you mean?
Like how could it be gone forever if it never left the house
It’s bound to turn up eventually
Exactly, just keep looking cause there’s few things that can take a game at this point
-A Vaccum
-A dog that likes small things
-Garbage disposal (Highly doubtful)
-or accidentally fell in the trash (which is easy to recover)
I’ve literally looked through the entire trash can which thankfully was emptied yesterday
I dunno…
Look, you WILL find it
Maybe not now, maybe not today but it WILL turn up, and why would it be out of your DS anyway
I don’t like it when worry sets in making everything all tense… And I don’t like seeing anybody upset unless I caused it
So retrace your steps
Thank you…. a ton
Anything for you Broham
This is non ironically so cute
Huh
It’s ok dude it will turn up, I mean where have you taken your DS in the last few days? (I’m literally the king of losing things I can help)
It’s been at home and never left it
Where do you remember having it last? Maybe it went down a crack or crevice somewhere?
Ok I’m never updating YouTube ever again I hate the new update
I can’t even use the upload date search
Wow… Totem Araquanid is no joke.
That’s a spoiler for people before Lana’s trial
Did pokemon sun and moon episode 50 “sub” reveal yet?
It releases every Thursday so it won’t be for another two days bud
I FOUND IT
YAY
😀
Where was it?
MOMS CAR
That was in your house?
YOU MADE ME WORRIED NOW I CAN GO TO SLEEP IN PEACE
Hmm
Alola better be ready.
Coming soon ?
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/4b246dd5b9435be8a4674dc8a6ef9b41dd229675be7077cf377aa46c52dc88e2.jpg
Here we go! Another attempt at Lana’s trial:
Lycanroc (Dusk) – Lv. 25
Torracat – Lv. 26
Fomantis – Lv. 22
Play time: just over 11 hours 🙂
Looks like you’ve got quite a challenge ahead 😛
Sure do
Good luck. Can’t say much else as I’ve not faced it yet and from what I’ve heard it’s quite challenging!
Being genuine, what do you feel your first Pokémon would be if Pokémon were real? Like, accounting for popular pets and wild life in your area
Herdier or some other dog Pokémon
Star why u so wite
https://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/thumb/0/08/White_EN_boxart.png/250px-White_EN_boxart.png
Good game. Reshiram is better tho ?
True
Probably a growlithe. It would be between dogs/cats as pets and probably wild insects so maybe a Beedril.
But if I had to choose then growlithe all day!
If I’m being honest, I legit feel like the starters where I’m from would be Deerling/Vulpix/Seel so I’d probably pick up Vulpix tbh 😡
Hm, we have alot of Foxes around here, and Dogs and Cats are the most popular pets, so combining all of those maybe Eevee.
Rockruff
Mons that I imagine seeing a lot would be Murkrow, Pidove, sometimes Wingull. For pets some cat or dog mons. One of these could be my first mon, I kinda like the thought of a starter Murkrow.
A Rowlet probably
I’m being serious
It’s a bird
And I’d find in a park or something
Otherwise I’d be the weirdo with the Venipede
Aren’t barn owls more country birds?
Somewhat but to be fair, a leafy bird wouldn’t exactly be out of the question
Leafy country bird
Still fits
Give me Venipede at least
Idk where you live fam.
In a suburb
Bugs and poison-y stuff is everywhere
Anime Venipedes have been seen in sewers
We always have deer walking and sleeping around our house, sometimes right outside my window. I’d have to go with Stantler or Sawsbuck.
Pachrisu or Spearow
My backyard is filled with them
Probably Murkrow
Ugh I get nothing cool here
I live near the sea so….argh just give me a Sandshrew
I’ll give you Gastrodon and Quagsire
Ehhh I mean personally Quagsire is really cute, but completely I want to kill it dead
Oh fine, did you know when me and my brother were kids we begged our dad to find Tomy figurines of Quagsire and Chikorita because of the anime
Also I TOLD YA YOUD FIND IT
HUG ME BROTHA
*insert hug here*
Ayyyyyyyyyy
I’m getting a venipede which is good enough
https://twitter.com/JoeMerrick/status/932438277461889024
Wtf you can get multiple Apricorn balls now?
I don’t know exactly. You show him a GS VC transferred ‘mon and he gives you some, not sure how many or the limit.
Expanding on fairies’ question
What Pokémon would be in the dex in your area?
Deerling
Stantler
Politoad
Patrat
Squirtle

Noibat
Zubat
Floette
Stunky
Tediursa

I’m not happy about it that’s for sure
Trubbish
Zigzagoon
Meowths
Spearow
Fletchling
Joltik
Voltorb
Tynamo
Oh and a few other bugs too
Without a doubt of all the things in my area Tynamo and Venipede would catch my attention
Fam you’d just have the entire Unova dex lol
I’m fine with that, second best region
Only behind Sinnoh
Mispelling of Alola
Actually it just is the best region
As much as I love Sinnoh and Johto, Unova is just perfectly designed
I mean I like Alola more
But Unova is just perf
Oh and add Buneary cause bunnies show up everywhere
OH SHIIIT WE HAVE BUNNIES
YEE
Did I ever tell the story of what I found in the grange behind my neighborhood?
A dead rabbit torn in half
With its intestines everywhere
I found a decomposing wolf once in Greenkill
Sad, circle o life baby
One summer I walked home from college classes and this dead cat slowly deflated each week as I walked home, you never forget the sweet pungent scent of death

A few Squirtles
But sadly no rough terrain where my favorites flourish
Except……maybe my former summer home in Jersey (which is gone sadly) but that’s mostly forest and freshwater dwelling Pokemon with a lot of birds
No Seismitoads about?
I want the surskits
Hmm my area
Pachrisu
Spearow
Poliwag and its evolutions
Stantler
Deerling
Zigzagoon

Drifloon
Oddish
Woobat
Zubat
Drilbur
Hoothoot
This is just all I got
I never really planned out a team before Ultra Moon, so I have to make these decisions now. Would Dewpider/Araquanid be more useful than Wimpod/Golisopod?
Yes
As somebody who has used Araquanid in two playthroughs, bragged about it for the past year on competitive, and has it as their second favorite mon. Hell to the yes
Awesome 🙂 my 4th member confirmed!
😀
Oh and if you want a tip, get a mon to slaughter birds, most kill him and he’s spooked of them
What’s a good set for it? I’m thinking Adamant with Liquidation and Leech Life but not sure what else including EVs.
It depends, what are you running it in, doubles or singles
Probably singles.
I believe this is all happening for a reason
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/e1486347612c35164731eae384fb70923a7f80dc5b7e88d996493725f09f05b7.jpg
It’s a sign that your next nuzlocke will be successful
Because you’re more likely to get a shiny than to not get a shiny in the Ultra wormhole?
https://ih1.redbubble.net/image.93583913.9737/flat,800×800,070,f.u2.jpg
Grandpa, is that you?
THE WILLY POKEMON:D
But is it …
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvrZJ5C_Nwg
iunderstoodthatreference.gif
I transferred over almost everything. Left duplicates and Hall of Fame parties behind, plus some mon for friend’s I’ve been holding.
Playing USUM lightly (just finished first trial), but running with Sinnoh Pikachu (replaced Quick Attack with Brick Break), Rowlett, Event Rockruff, and a Ghastly.
So cool I tagged along to my brothers work to go buy a pack of cards and I got reverse Holo A.Raichu and Buzzwole GX, plus a second Fighting Memory and a New Psychic Memory for Silvally (a card I have yet to get)
Hey star :3
Yey
Following on from stars question which follows on from mine, what Pokémon would you use in your team from the Dex you answered to star?
Salandit
Deerling
Noibat
Squirtle
Floette
Pikachu
OK FUUCK DEERLING WE HAVE BUNNIES LOPUNNY
I probably left a few out from my area but
Venipede
Tynamo
Rowlet/Pikipek
Scrafty
Something water, idk what
Litwick (I just remembered they’re urbany)
Ninetales/Roserade/Dewgong/Dusk Lycanroc/Crobat/Klefki
Hmm
Raichu, Sandslash, Venomoth, Politoed, Arcanine and Honchkrow
I feel like Unova could’ve been better if the entralink wasn’t plopped in the middle
Would’ve been better if it wasn’t designed to be linear asf imo

That moment when Rotom Dex asks you if you would want to grow up fast into being an adult and you feel the crippling stress and disappointment of already being an adult……….
Big Boi
I hate life…….*sigh*……..
We all do
One legendary Pokémon bonds with you and grants you the power to call upon them as needed. Which legendary do you choose? No mythicals and no UBs (besides the Cosmic trio)
Shaymin
Who needs power when you have undying cuteness
That’s a mythical though
….
Fine Lunala f*ck you
I’d say Latios or Lugia
Change mine to Suicune actually
That’s so much more annoying ;~; I can’t pick Marshadow
Lunala
Star called Lunala first ?
Ok I’ll take Xerneas then >.<
I can see Xern for you
The best fairy legendary.
Magearna is a mythical afterall
I appreciated Magearna a lot more once I realized its gave me an opportunity for me to give something a Vocaloid Nickname
Zekrom
Dialga
Probably Ho-oh
Oh here’s the cards I was talking about earlier https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/dcc9f16782911174bde405717134470b8a99f6b7c228893bd4dcd5936ee11c8a.jpg
LOOOOVE that Buzzwole card
I was super happy when I saw a slight glimmer at the back of the pack
BUZZWOLLLLLLLE
So happy I got one ^_^
Is the Lucky egg still locked to post game or can I get it earlier in the game this time?
Post game
Blaaah I hate all things…….
Can’t you steal it from Chanseys? Or are they post game too?
I’m so eager to play USUM again
Just gotta make it through this stupid volunteering
??
How do you do it
Do what?
Play melemele more than once
I apparently misworded my response
And my response? Alola awaits
Look I replay Pokémon games a lot but
This is far too soon :0
No I mean I have the game put down, what I mean by AGAIN is that I literally wanna pick up the game and go back to playing it
I have a dex to complete and a bunch of shiny Ultra Beasts to hunt
Pick a type and a team and legendary to go with it

Name five bug legendaries that aren’t Ultra Beasts
Do you see the issue?
Name a Poison Legendary that’s not a UB.
I see another issue
Name a Fighting type legendary that isn’t a UB, an alternate form, or some sort of goat thingy
Does Poison Arceus count?
Meh to a degree other than it there’s 0 (excluding Silvally as it is confirmed Legenday by GF)
The issue is most of them are Psychic.
Or dragon
Or psychic/dragon
Screaming the necrozma theme
Dragon kinda makes sense as a legendary type but yeah.
So Star i have semi-bad news I kinda caught all the Blacephalon in Sun…..but i was smart enough to bring a Synchro and they’re both Timid
I don’t know if i’ll bother looking for Shiny Ultra Beasts, the only one i’d sorta hunt down is Buzzwole and maybe Stakataka
*Looks towards you rapidly*
B L A C E P A H L O N?!
What
I need one for my pokedex
I N E E D T E H S H A N E E C H U R M
well I want a Stakataka….but i also promised star….decisions
well like all conflicts in life they must be settled with a fight to the death
I mean I’d literally take it and give it right back
but where’s the profit?
I’d do the same for a mon of your choice? it’s literally just for pokedex completion for the shiny charm
How many do you get? When I get there you can have one If there’s 4
2, I just need to borrow it
Ok it will be a while, but you can borrow it (one’s going to my brother while I get his second Stakataka)
hmm
Best part of having sibling he gets one and I get the other (He has Celesteelia and Pheromosa because of me)
True
I wonder if Yammega frequently consumes yams
Yanmega.
It’s a Yam now
Name your least favorite Pokémon of your favorite type?
Wormadam Sandy
Toxapex from water type
Grounded.
It aggravates me to no end how it has so little counters
Are you forgettink what Naganadel is?
Haven’t fought one yet
Ahahaha.. let’s just say it makes Toxapex a lot riskier to use
agreed, the only surefire way is a psychic sweeper
it has a decent chance to tough out a ground attack and play the scalding game
Mismagius
I don’t dislike it, it’s just my least favorite
Magmortar
Togedamaru from Steel.
So you like Ferrothorn over togedemaru?
Hmm suspicious
Yep. Ferothorn is probably in my top 5 favourite Steels.
Plus it’s actually useful as opposed to Steel Pika Clone.
Whoooaaaa we both know Togedemaru isn’t the least useful steel type, he’s used in VGC
And ferrothorn looks fuckin disgusting
I don’t play VGC, but some of those guys can probably make a Sunkern useful…
Ferrothorn is amazing. Unique typing, great utility, I didn’t like it’s sprite in Gen 5, but since Gen 6 the 3D model has really made it stand out…
I agree Ferro is just awesome. The concept and not to mention how viable it is competitively
Marty my Togedemaru says otherwise (He was my ace of alola)
Shiinotic for Fairy
🙁 my mushroom beauty is despised
I like it, better than some other Fairies.
I like it over quite a few, but for Fairy my least favorite is
Whimsicott that is by far my least favorite Fairy
HOW DO YOU HATE COTTON BABY
The fact its just a Spammy Leech Seed, Substitute, prankster
And the fact some Pokémon could have gotten Fairy that deserved it wanted, over this thing, a cotton plant or if I’m correct a weed…
It’s cute
It’s based on this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saci_(Brazilian_folklore)
I love Whimsicott tbh. Aromatisse is my least.
Haven’t commented yet on how my journey is going, so here’s my update–
I’m having a blast so far, but that’s because I’m taking it individually rather than an update of SM. Or maybe just because it’s given me a much needed chance to forget about the world for a bit and catch up with an old friend.
I’ve been rotating 9 pokemon so far, and I’m stuck at Totem Marowak. My team isn’t type balanced, and with rotating I’m underlevelled. But overall, definitely harder than SM. Side note: mantine surf is awesome. Aside from being a cool minigame it makes the game feel more coherent.
I’m gonna make an in-depth review of the game when I finish, and I definitely see why so many people are unhappy. I understand that it’s a lackluster update over SM, but rather than being dissapointed about what it isn’t, I’d rather enjoy what it is, at least for now.
Glad you’re enjoying it!
Look forward to your review!! :]
Thanks! I’ve only ever done this once, with Splatoon 2, which I have similar feelings on. In short, a blast but not a huge upgrade.
Pretending sun and moon don’t exist is the only way to not feel ripped off lol
They make me regret purchasing last year lol
Game Freak has an amazing business model
Well for them not for consumers
They get to release a beta version at full price
Sun and moon was a pretty good beta if you ask me (except for post game)
Congratulations
You missed the point
No I didn’t.
I’m just speaking about the games here not the marketing/model.
I feel SM were better than say DP, RS and XY as first entries of their respective generations.
I would say only BW comes close.
Meh FRLG may not have story, but comes close to it as a game
Because it’s more straightforward and to the point
But there shouldn’t be a beta in the first place. You don’t release a beta game, you release a beta test for free. And when the game is complete you release it
Lets be honest, we all could have waited another year and Game Freak wouldn’t be up this creek
This wouldn’t of even taken a year. It would’ve taken a couple months
Point still stands though
Even if it did take a year we all could have waited
Yeah true I would prefer if they took their time with new games.
Even if they are beta I wouldn’t call SM beta as I feel it doesn’t do them justice. They are excellent first attempt games or if you wanna call them beta
The biggest issue was that the games were incomplete and to be honest, they had a lot of issues.
USUM literally feels like the completed games, and it feels like we got sold the same thing twice
That’s the issue, no matter how good these games wre that point still stands
They don’t even feel completed. There is still so many things left unfixed
From USUM? Like what out of curiosity?
Melemele has an hour shaved off but it STILL is a boring slog and some of the worst experiences I’ve had with the series
Z moves are unskippable
Many characters like Wicke and Plumeria still don’t have any arcs
Still so much dialogue and cutscenes that are unskippable
Most of the trial captains are still just as undeveloped
Alolan forms still have terrible encounter rates
Post game is better but still not nearly as good as Platinum or B2W2
Just off the top of my head
You forgot to mention that they accidentally left out the part where sophocles gets erased from existence
For me they’re all pretty minor, like there could have been bigger issues.
Keep in mind im still not even 5% into the game so I cant say much more
That I agree with :]
I hope they pace up with gen switch and not repeat these mistakes.
Agreed
I’m not really gonna dive into this just yet. Don’t get me wrong, there’s plenty to be said, but I don’t wanna downtalk what I’m still enjoying.
To each their own, but tha’s not entirely true. I’m enjoying the games just as I enjoyed SM, even though they didn’t meet fans’ hopes.
Also, don’t act as if you’ve been ripped off. The game leaked days before release, you had plenty of time of choose for yourself not to buy the games.
Uhhh what?
I didn’t look at story leaks because I expected changes.
There is hardly anything significant until the end of Ula Ula
Well put dude. I’m gonna play it enjoy it and then come to my conclusion ?
I adore these games tbh
Even if the practice is *insert swear word here*
My thoughts exactly.
Fun games when taken individually, but it’s an outdated anti-consumer business practice. I enjoy what they are, but I hope GF takes note of the backlash.
Agreed!
So i need final decisions for my moon
Snowshrew baby at level 5 with Metal Claw as a egg move as my starter
Rockruff with Suckerpunch and Steadfast
Regular Grubbin
and i gotta wait until i get Stuffull and Sandygast
and i still got one slot open
which is looking very bleak
Alolan Muk
I’d day send the Sandshrew over as an egg just so it doesn’t get overlevelled tbh
Btw it learns Metal Claw Lv 14 so it’s a pointless egg move.
but i want it nooooooooow
I can give you an egg of it in a Heavy Ball with SlushRush, Icicle Crash, Icicle Spear, Curse and Night Slash if you want.
too much, i don’t want too many powerful moves, Metal Claw is fine enough for me
Teach over them early and get them back later.
I’ll take you up on that… but it’s like midnight in Germany so let’s try to trade tomorrow ? I’ll import my bank
Serperior scolipede and Azumarill dropped to UU
OH
SWEET
MOTHER
OF GOD
Serp did??????? Noo wayy!
I don’t think it’s going to stay there considering it got Defog
But Azumarill…. Y I K E S
Serp is hella scary
Azumarill is too
Well goodbye everyone it was a horror meeting you
*Runs outside and waits to be hit by a bus*
I would 100% buy a third release of SuMo if it cannonically confirmed sophocles is dead
And Lillie actually gets caught in the beginning cutscene so we don’t have to listen to her yapping all game…
Lillie is like the only great character in the game what are you on about
Gladion?
Hau?
Guzma? (USUM version)
Hau
Gladion
Kukui
Nanu
Guzma
Lillies gets really annoying really fast…maybe if she didn’t keep cropping up everywhere she’d be alright…
I agree with all these characters
USUM Guzma is GREAT
He sure is.
I don’t know why but I dislike Characters who keep interrupting my play through with meaningless dialogue. Not saying Lillie is a bad character but at least make her do something instead of whining.
That was partly my hope for a completely different personality for Lillie in USUM, but alas it wasn’t to be…
I like Lillie more in USUM simply because she actually goes somewhere at the end of the game
In SuMo though?
Y E E SH
Excuse me? She actually has an arc
She’s the only character to go from a passive character to an active character in basically the entire series and that change is seeable through her actions.
She’s the one that goes after Lusamine. You’re just there because she’s not a trainer
That’s my point, the whole game she isn’t able to actually do anything except rely on other people. I wanted a different character arc for Lillie in USUM with I didn’t get…
And don’t get me started on that ‘this is my z-form’ dialogue…
Okayokayokay
I can say this
She actually acknowledges this idea in USUM
Like she kinda notices she isn’t exactly helpful and in the post game she attempts to change
That honestly makes her more bearable in my eyes
?? But the one she has is fine?
Plus she isn’t even in the game that much for the first half
https://media.giphy.com/media/GazPMD1iWfgcM/giphy.gif
I think there’s a lot that needs to be cleared up, especially in terms of who the mastermind of the Ultra Recon Squad is, who Mohn really is, who the Masked Royal is (I’m deadass), and just other small lore things that would make a world of difference.
I think the Masked Royal might be either Lillie or Youngster Joey.
I think you’re onto a solid theory there 😉
So my theory about him being Gladion’s mega evolution was wrong
I’m pretty sure that the mastermind of Ultra Recon is Phyco, he outright calls Soleria his subordinate at a point
And isn’t it obvious? Mohn is a fat dude who likes beans
In one of the first scenes with Phyco and Soliera (Ultra Moon), they talk about asking the “boss” something, so I don’t think it could be Phyco. This makes me wonder if it’s one of those puppet master leaders like Giovanni and his grunts.
Hmmm
I don’t actually remember that statement
I’m pretty sure they aren’t even a team and are more like a research team
It’s right before Ilima’s trial, and you could be right. They are a “recon squad” instead of a team after all.
Yeah
It’s mainly because, if you don’t mind spoilers
they kinda establish the fact that they’re from a group of people living in Megaopolis and their entire goal is to find someone strong enough to fight Necrozma. If you listen to their dialogue, they seriously resemble a team of researchers
So with all the unhappiness with GF’s model over here,Amazon and pretty much everywhere.
Surely GF will never repeat this again with all this feedback right?
They better not. They need to stop doing more than one version all together
To be fair it’s never going to stop
Let’s just hope the third version is a sequel next time
They just got major flak for it and switch games are more expensive
If they’re smart, they’ll stop
These are the same people that designed Sophocles
hahaha lmao
They’re the same people who designed Decidueye so by that logic Deci is bad
Well it is already bad but that just confirms it
100% agreed ?
I’m confused on this, why are people already complaining abou the fact that the Switch game will cost more? If the games are fantasic, then there’s no problem. The main issue with that is if they try to pull another double version. We all know it’s been pointless for years.
I’m not comparing the switch games are more expensive? I’m complaining that them being more expensive means less people will buy both versions whereas more people will buy a single, better game
Because Pokémon games in its current state are not worth 60$ especially if there are two versions. That goes from 80$ to 120$ for both
If they actually make it good then it’s fine
Yup surely they’ll see sense now with all this backlash
The questions is, did it make them money? If yes, you can expect it to happen again…
Not sure with all the negative feedback will sales be effected?Even if not it should push them to make sequels as opposed to 3rd version hopefully
It will be.
3rd versions already don’t sell as well
What depresses me is that Pokemon will never again reach the level as hype for me that this gen did
Simply because my ideal Pokemon have been made already
Outside of a ghostbug of course
Which is that again? I’m blanking.
Marshadow
Araquanid
Decidueye
Pretty good gen then, huh?
My favorite have to be Decidueye, Komala, and I haven’t used on yet but I really like the way Naganadel looks.
I love it allll dude
I dont think I have any favourites this Gen. I liked Rockruff, but I seriously wanted it to be a 3-stage evolution line as none of its evolutions do It for me. I also liked Salandit, but not not much a fan of Salazzle.
Imo you’re crazy
Or he just has different opinions 😉
But not liking having a single favorite mon of gen 7?
Can’t blame him, nothing this Gen was like super fave for me besides Inci and the Poison types.
I feel like gen 7 is either amazing or trash for people
For me half of it is amazing and half of it is trash
Cuz I got Tsareena Primarina Salazzle Mimikyu Alolan Raichu Alolan Ninetails and Ribombee but then ya got Toucannon and Incineroar
Incineroar is clearly the best because it got the most tutor moves and so far the most attention in the anime ? ?
I didn’t know Incineroar was a four legged dog
Afterall
Look how many move tutor moves that got
How many of those will it use tho? Even in game some of those tutors are just outshined by other moves
The anime doesn’t always make the right things popular
One example of one thing wrong it made popular
I just gave Lycanroc as an example
Additionally we can’t pretend sceptile was ever a mon that stood out
Lycanroc was popular before the anime made it popular so they capitalised on it and made a new form to push it.
I don’t know where you’ve been but Sceptile is popular fam
I know it is but I mean ingame there’s nothing that makes it stand out
It’s because it appeals to little boys and furries
Of course it’s goona be popular
‘Primarina appeals to little girls and is waifu bait’
‘Decidueye appeals to edge lords who love anything with ghost slapped onto it’
And the box appeals to a fair amount of people too
I like Decidueye because it is an Archer and Owl.
Fam it’s a hyperbolic
Eh
Fair enough
Incineroar is probably my fav final stage starter of all time. Says a lot :]
I’m scared to know what other starters you like…
That would be Blaziken for me.
I said I don’t have any favourites, in that none would break into my top 10.
I still like some of them…
gasfdsaredafdsfsa
Well he doesn’t like Lillie so
Make of that what you will ?
Didn’t say I don’t like Lillie, I said she’s not a bad character but I expected more from her…there’s others I like better.
Nah, this Gen was seriously poor in Pokemon designs.
Pallosand and the Jangmo-o line stand out to an extent.
The starters were all really bad. Basic bird and rodent were terrible compared to Gen 6.
Even the legendaries were substandard, guess I could make a case for Bulu being awesome
ARaquanid
Araquanid is alright I guess. Decent design, but overhyped in competitive…
Never really saw the appeal of it.
I’ll admit it’s overhyped but it’s still good
Plus it’s design is great
so….
Snowslash
Lycanroc Midnight
Vikavolt
A. Muk

Pallossand

ehhh it just doesn’t click with me

Make sure Alolan Muk has Poison Touch. This is a good team imo.
So while normal Pokemon shiny rates in Ultra Space are greatly increased, I’m guessing Ultra Beast shiny rates remain around the 1/4000 range?
Yes, UBs and Legends remain the normal rates.
Thought so. Thanks 🙂
Incini gets hate like so much but you know what..
I love it! Like its probably my fav final stage no joke. And I’m an avid fan of all 3 Kanto, Johto, Sinnoh, Kalos and Hoenn starters. Even Serp.
I just love its design and the complexity behind its personality adds to its appeal!
I think Alola is the only region where I genuinely like all three final stage evolutions.
I personally feel that since gen 6 GF have been doing well with starters.
What do you think of the Kalos set??
I’d love to lie to you and say that they’re all great, but I’m not particularly fond of any. That might be because of all the amazing fanart that circled the web from January to October.
Kalos contains some of the worst, have you seen Delphox?
I didn’t wanna put it that way but my thoughts exactly 😡
:3
What about Greninja? Chesnaught is pretty cool too imo
They could have done Delph better but I still like. Looks good enough for me and I loke the concept how it links to France!
Chesnaught looks cool
And a tongue scarf has so many practical issues it’s a miracle this thing is still alive as a species
Haha nah fam I like gren especially from a competitive stand point :]
Outside of a competitive standpoint what is there to like
It’s design. The slick, stealthy and warrior like look it imposes.
Opinions friend :]
It’s a frog with a tongue that flops around as it runs
I think it’s cool
That’s what frogs are supposed to do buddy :]
You’re missing the stealth ninja like features imo are a perfect match!
The worst trio ever
I don’t like any of them after their first and second forms
I say first and second because Chespin is ruined the moment it evolves
Wow I thought they were well received esp gren?
What do you think of the unova trio?
Triooooooooooooom
Greninja is the least worst one purely based on competitive value. Design is still awful.
Unova is meh. It at least has Serperior who is incredible and the other two are cute in their first stages
Unova was a real let down for me except Serperior.
I disagree with Greninja love its design. Competitively it’s ridiculously strong :]
That’s Sinnoh for me
Those are cool though Sinnoh tops my least favorite regions list 🙂
dont hurt me pls
I mean I can understand it in DP but in Platinum?
Nananananananaaaaa
… batman
I have ideas how it could be better but I still like it.
Oh yeah like on all fours would have been nice too!
Or even just hunched over and more feral. Get rid of the grey chest shirt thingy. Make the arm, tail and leg stripes jagged like a real tiger. Make the hands more paw like, like larger versions of Lucarios. Make the red a more burnt Orange like a slightly darker Torracat. Make it look more like it has furr, like the tufts on the shoulders and the tail.
“I choose you” actually confirmed Incineroar runs on all fours rather than on two legs like a person
Oh yeah it does! I like Inci on all fours or not. I think its awesome :]
But like what other starters do you like?
My all time favourites would be Feraligatr, Ape, original 3, Sceptile and now Incineroar.
I do like the rest though like Blaziken, Torterra alot too.
The only ones that bother me a little were the Unova set. Typing coulda been betta
Incineroar is so bad imo
Thats the thing with starters what one person likes greatly another dislikes and vice versa.
I wonder what gen switch has in store!
You kidding i love Incineroar
That rowdy disposition, that complete disregard towards others safety and that flame belt

Why are people spray painting tony the tiger?
Oh yes that rough and ruthless nature.
That I want to kill you stare it gives you!
It looks more like an “I wanna kill myself” stare to me
Speaking of starters what do you realistically predict or expect GF to design the switch starters after?
Like what design concepts are begging to be used 8 generations in? I guess you can also add what would you like to see?
Water probably won’t be a Mammal again. Fire if we follow the Zodiac could be Rabbit, Bull, Snake or perhaps Ram. Grass I hope for another Mammal.
Yeah like the only non-Repilian or Amphibious Grass starters are Chespin (based on a nut) and Rowlet an avian
Can we get a Mammal for gosh sakes
Rotom gave me a comment about telling physical from special attackers and mentioned looking at their movesets to figure it out….

Rotom… you know that’s a bit of a sensitive spot for some pokemon.. right?
Honestly I haven’t loved the Fire starter since Gen 4, I like them, but Gen 1-4 had the best one to me.

I JUST WANT A FIRE SNAKE IS THAT SO MUCH TO ASK FOR
Coalbra
I don’t like snakes so for me that would be worst case scenario unless it’s done ridiculously well.
Something… sleek
I could totally get on that hype!
Yeah the first 4 were badass :]
Finally someone agrees.

Stakataka too OP please ban
It’s really strong despite its many flaws.
I’ve seen it wreck havoc.
It did 80%to Lando T after intimidate!!!!
Great, I just got my phone and my 3DS taken away from me because I haven’t been doing homework. Seriously, homework is just unnecessary and too time consuming
Alex
We both know that isn’t the real reason
;3
??
We ALL know what happens to you when you see a Zeraora
I’m not in the mood for that.
Okayokay
No but seriously I hope you get it back soon
Just learn to time manage a bit better, it helps a TON
I’m trying, but I can never bring myself to focus. Even now, I still can’t
Keep tryin
I know the feels, I have no self control over my focus (I will procrastinate till the end and then rush to finish it off at the last minute)
I just end up not doing it most of the time
Just do it for the grade. It’s the best you can do for now.

Poke trainers welcome my new friend.
Hahaha isn’t his entry amazing. Can you imagine it teasing an exeggutor and then being flung! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/5389c7d6f580556008d50df174b417d29d37266b3cf159426cc671fa74631eca.jpg
Probably just happens when Exeggutor turns around to see what is slapping it and Makuhita gets caught by the tail, then Exeggutor sees nothing there and is confused as Makuhita blasts off again.
Haha yeah they are quite clueless. Still quite a comedic scene nonetheless:]
F U CKKKK WHAT DID I JUST DO
STUPID SOPHOCLES ?
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/f650e67723cdb3ba3f71e3eb2b5172a68ffb1feaf1e7e2bd994b7e75b80d8b9a.jpg
Sophocles is a hideous mutation of a Makuhita.
thought that was Tabitha
Tabitha is a less hideous mutation of Makuhita.
I shoot I just found these little ones, two of my best drawings I ever did (still mad they never happened)

I still now wish Drasweet was the real Bounsweet evolution
I mean instead of making a prissy princess, instead make it a cute Dragon fruit that could have had a lot of potential
They can do that with another ‘mon in future though.
True
Blacephalon is fucking nuts
So I’ve got my team fully assembled I guess. I’ve got a lot of grinding to do to get the lower 4 up to snuff, but in the end I think this team will be great. 3 of them have egg moves and all except Dartrix and Dewpider are eggs traded over. Should be a really cool team after they’re all fully evolved. Still bummed I won’t be using a totem sized Araquanid due to it not being able to go in bank and ultimately transfer up to later gens but I guess I’ll live with this. Either way I’m happy.
Dartrix lvl 25 male
Midnight Lycanroc lvl 25 female
Dewpider lvl 17
Stufful lvl 13 male
Sandile lvl 15 male
Alolan Sandshrew lvl 13 female
whelp I’m an idiot. What am I doing complaining about not getting the lucky egg before post game when I have a perfectly good lucky egg in my Sun sitting being unused? For the record I just want to use the Lucky egg to get my lower mons up to the same level as my Dartrix and Lycanroc. Once that happens I’ll put it away until after I beat the game. I don’t want to make things too easy for myself after all. Just don’t feel like grinding for the sake of grinding…….

Naga’s entire Sctick is getting a nasty plot up which it needs
Stak runs lonely with 14 def iv
why lonely? wouldn’t minus speed be better for it? or anything that lowers spatk?
No because if you don’t go lonely it doesn’t get Attack boosts
i cannot grasp this… then why not just go Adamant? or Impish
Because it doesn’t get Attack boosts. The things defense is so high that even if you go adamant with 252 Evs and 0 def, it still gets beast boost on its defense
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Ok now i get it, i am a’stupid
It’s fine no worries
The mon itself is honestly designed in an extremely idiotic manner and whoever designed it should be removed from statmaking
…..i like how it looks
and its stats aren’t…..too bad……that trick room thing surprised me………
But it’s stats are so baaaad
Like I’m sorry it’s dumb to need to run Lonely to make use of it
Stats are fine. Its main issue is typing. Something like steel ghost would have been better but stats are great. Perfect.
Also for Blacephalon I reccomend Mind Blown, Shadow Ball, psychic/psyshock, and pain split
Well as we were talking of Starters I want to share my thoughts of all starters
Kanto- I love the three of them, but I have to admit Charizard pulls through only because when I was little Charmander was my favorite Pokémon of all time.
Johto- I also like, but on a lesser scale as Meganium could be better. And my favorite is Feraligatr as I loved Totodile for so long
Hoenn- The first region I have a less positive view on. Sceptile definetly is great, but not a fan of Treeko or Grovyle. Torchic is fine, but I dislike the Chicken wing Combusken and mostly for how its so over rated Blaziken I have low likng for. Mudkip line I like all around, but I believe Swampert could be a bit better (It’s hands look weird)
Sinnoh- This region gets a Blue ribbon for some great starters, not one single problem with any of them
Unova- What a wasted opportunity Serperior was, could’ve made a Grass/Poison snake or Grass/Dragon maybe, but no we got a pure grass type with a blander level up move set then meganium, I like Servine and S nivy though based on looks. Tepig is cute and holds high favor for me. Do you have to ask, Oshawott is my favorite starter line ever I have 0 complaints about it at all.
Oshawott is not water fighting
Me no care, it’s my favorite starter
Serperior isn’t wasted at all. Maybe type wise it could’ve been more interesting, but it’s the best out of the starters stat and battle wise.
It got speedy (a typical snake trait) and contrary saves its competitively
But to me it’s bland to use and much less interesting than using Oshawott
Oshawott and Dewott are good, yes. That’s about it for that line :3
I like it’s variety gets Bug moves and Fighting moves which gives it more variety in game than the others
Yeah its movepool ain’t bad
The fact it gets Megahorn via level up makes me so happy
Part 2
Kalos- Chespin is my favorite Grass starter, despite the hate that it turns into a fat lard according to some people, but it’s nice to see a Grass starter that actually can was meant for defensive power that can actually defend. Froakie and Frogadier could have looked less ugly, but Greninja’s pretty cool so no biggie. Fennekin… is just bland to me, Braixen I like for its design, but no Delphox, it looks pretty weird (It’s face doesn’t match its body) could have had hat like fur to look more like mage/witch/wizard, but all in all. Not my favorite
Alola- finishing strong on this, I have no complaints with the final stages, sadly for the first time I don’t like two of the mid stages, Dartrix and Brionne. Dartrix just looks like a pompous pr*ck and I don’t like that fact that it acts so prim with its stupid emo hair. Brionne I think points way to far towards being completely female, at least in some ways Primarina can be saved, but Brionne is has a dress (which most men don’t wear) and its called a Pop star Pokémon (Pop star 90% of the time means female) so yeah, but Torracat is great
Well this is my opinion on starters
Kanto-Starters are basic, but this is Gen 1 we’re talking about.Overall, I like them. My favorite is Charmander
Johto-As much as I dislike Gen 2, it had pretty good starters. My favorite is either Totodile or Cyndaquil
Hoenn-To risk sounding like a broken record, I like all of them except for maybe Torchic, but it’s evos more than make up for it. My favorite is Treecko
Sinnoh-Where I started, so nostalgia warning or something. I love all of them, they all look great in my eyes. This is the one Gen where I’m stuck between all of them as my favorite
Unova-Snivy line is fine, I just feel there’s improvement needed. Same with all of them, actually. I don’t really what I’d fix for Samurott, but I feel Emboar needs a redesign as much as I like it. My favorite is Oshawot.
Kalos-I love this region, it’s really cool. Same for the starters, all the final evos are really good (except for Delpox), with Greninja being my fave. I was actually gonna pick Chespin first before I saw Froakie’s evos. As I stated before, my fave is Froakie.
Alola-I love this region too. I like the starters, some more than others, but Rowlet I just don’t really like until Deciueye. I really like the Litten line, but yeah, Incineroar could’ve been better. I’ve started to warm up to Brionne, so I actually like it now. My favorite is Litten

“Hey, Gamefreak, can you make more hairstyles for males in USUM? 6 Really isn’t enough for people to accurately portray themselves.”
“Sure! We can do that!”
>>>>Adds 1 single male hairstyle.
It’s at least a good one
You wanted the Kim Jong Un didn’t you?
Females still don’t have enough cool short hairstyles
They still have almost 4 times the options though :I
A fringe isn’t really a lot more options though.
And non of them look like my hair style >:(
Grow your hair fam 😉
No I’m cute >~<
Hah you admitted it ;3
Fam I’ve accepted it by now
I’m just waiting on you
Well I know you’re cute af already
Nah I’m waiting for you I know that you’re cute too
ghjyhkgng
as much as i really could not care less for customization, I dont understand why they cant just make the same options for both genders. I mean for Miis you can do ANYTHING then choose the sex at the end. I dont see why they couldnt just have a set of options for anyone to choose.
Add crossdressing too, please.
I mean, i implied this as well. but actually now that i think about it in Mii creation the sex also changes the shirt to a dress. so yeah i meant crossdressing too. Its freakin customization, let people do what they want. Imo it would look much better for them
It’s frustrating. I will definitely be talking about this in my review. It’s one thing to make the mistake once, but this is the third (?) time they’ve done this.
I didnt know you review?
I don’t, but I have a lot to say about USUM. I have always wanted to start reviewing things on a blog or something.
as have I tbh.
Let’s both review it :O
Dae’s review: “Good but not worth it.”
cant review what you havent played. well USUM is an exception i guess since they are just sun and moon +
The Masked Royal has to be Kukui… right? Right?
Don’t be stupid
They are nothing alike.
I always thought it was Hau from the future come back to beat us down in our prime… XD
No way, they are two completely different people. Idk how you came up with that, but it’s wrong. The real question is:Will we ever find out who the Masked Royal is?
You never see them in the same room together
I’ve been saying this for a year but you fuckers still want to deny it

weird. i think your kanto and johto are the exact same for me. But im deciding between wartortle and squirtle. I just love the first stages for kanto
I love Wartortles tail and ears and the blues used for it against the shell colours.
yeah the ears are awesome
Wartortle is awesome!
I just got a King’s Rock from one of the bubbling spots…and then immediately ran into a Poliwhirl. I think this is a sign. Anyone want to help me get a Politoed for my team?
I can FC: 0748 – 2744 – 4660 IGN: James
Okay cool! I might already have you, but I’ll check after I finish up in Malie Garden.
OK, I probably need your FC though.
Mine is 2191-7648-0558, name is Kevin.
OK, I’ll get online now.
I don’t think you have me added as it’s not coming up.
Now you’re added!
OK, I’ll be in plaza, request when ready.
You want it to learn swagger?
Works for me! Replace what you think is best 😛
Removed Double Slap as I think it has least merit.
I would’ve done the same, good choice. I might be adding Magmortar later down the line, so maybe I’ll let you know. Thanks a lot!
OK, glad to be of help 🙂
It is a sign!
Catch it
Chop it’s legs off
and huck in the deep fryer!

Do QR mons spawn with random natures or are they fixed??
You mean island scan? Random.
I found a hardy Squirtle.
Should I try resetting for something better?? I think I may just do thanks!
Yeah, might need to scan in again depending when you saved.
Got a modest squirtle on my next try!
In advance, i am sorry…

But Game Freak left me no choice…
Sheen…this is the seventh week in a row that you’ve shown ultra sun in class..
But this one is different, this remake has powerful move tutors and nuclear features, with rare never seen ultra beasts making it highly collectible
Never been seen huh? Well then how do you know it’s even in there?
*Pulls it out* Neh Neh
*Realizes the game is shite*
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
*makes snarky look with an attitude*
well the mighty Earthen has grown bored…..
Do i really want to send over all my Nature Dittos and my teambuilding pokemon or make all new ones
All i really have is my Shiny 6IV Ditto named Max, but i’ll need at least 9 Everstones
I just spent the last half hour moving my living dex in and out of my Ultra Moon in order to get my Pokedex as close to completion as I can before beating the game. My two regrets are I prolly should have been training my lower level mons and that I wish I could get the shiny charm before beating the game……oh well at least now all I need are the new UBs and a couple others that I had evolved in Sun. Some being Type Null which I evolved into Silvally so I don’t have one for my living dex yet and Cosmog which I evolved into Cosmoem. Both of which I’ll be able to get in these games easily.
How would you rate USUM out of 10?
Still got a long way to go Dae im still on melemele :] but I will post my review/opinions once I’m done!
8.5/10. Very solid games indeed.
3/5
6.5/10
It’s fine.
3 being a good/average game that’s worth playing
Though that’s only if you haven’t played Sun and Moon
7.5-8.5/10
Am I ranking it as its own game or as a remake of SM?
10/10 as their own games 6/10 as remakes of SuMo
A solid 9/10 only due to only having like 3 or 4 hours logged so far
As a standalone game, 9.5/10
As a follow-up to Sun and Moon? 7/10
9/10 as standalone
8.25/10 as a follow up
I’m having trouble choosing between all of the Fossil Pokemon for my team because I love all of them. I guess I’m tied between Kabutops, Archeops and Bastiodon. What should I do?
Archeops if you can cope with Defeatist, otherwise Kabutops.
As you know, I already have a Water type on my team so I’ll go with Archeops.
I didn’t know if you minded that, maybe give it leftovers.
the coins in odyssey are the most tedious part of the game tbh
I usually find them on the way looking for moons
but i found all the moons i can find in seaside, i need 3 coins
Get the bowser amiibo
I did and it helps out so much
I just wanna take time to thank the holy arceus with finding this bad boy on my first try https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/826b04befb021d4144e9614ddbade4808ec351c3fc955fd3513e01419bd2e747.jpg
Nice, was it SOS?
Nope. Ran into the grass and saw an eevee that i killed so i kept looking for another eevee and found a yungoos and then this! I only had 2 great balls and a heal ball. First great ball without damage didnt work so i used my Torracats ember and it got burnt! I was like praise the lord!!
Sadly its just gonna sit in my box but atleast i can say i finally caught a shiny
Why’s that?
Cause ive already used a Mudsdale in my Sun playthrough. My US playthrough will be pokemon i havent used before
Gold Sand….

Is that the shiny?
Yes
Oh, well nice find 🙂
This’s wat I called beauty
Wow, I’ve accomplished almost nothing with my homework in the past 4 hours

Get yourself some leech seed my dude
It’s so easy with leech seed
I already won, but I still wanted to get that out of my system because it was INSANE.
The same thing with me
I think I have my final team planned out, I’m pretty happy with it to be honest! It sort of evolved over time, just the way I like it.
Decidueye
Malamar
Florges
Magmortar
Politoed
Archeops
I may switch Florges out for Metagross or something like that, but the chances are slim because I want a Fairy type on my team.
Pretty snazzy team.
Thanks, I was a big fan of the Gen 6 Pokémon that are newly featured in USUM so I wanted to take advantage of that. And Politoed just hopped out of nowhere (no pun intended).
Solid. I say keep Florges though
Have fun getting a Politoed
I already got a Politoed today! I got SUPER lucky and found a King’s Rock in Malie Garden, and then immediately found a Poliwhirl. It was like magic.
Very nice 🙂
I’m the type who likes to build a team around that generation’s Pokemon specifically, so I’ve planned Incineroar, Lycanroc, Araquanid, Lurantis, Bewear, and Mimikyu for my Ultra Moon run.
When I played Sun I also used exclusively Alolan Pokémon, but now I felt like changing it up a little. Decidueye is still a significant choice though because of its Grass/Ghost typing (and it’s a starter I’ve never used!)
Beat Nanu and in middle of some plot! Team Update (final) https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/da58fbe91aeef7700a1fe40d2a73b1111a16ad03d7c781e8e50f4e6445132848.jpg
So… everyone is posting their teams. What do you guys think of mine?
Decidueye
A. Marowak
Toxapex
A. Ninetales
Araquanid
Minior
(Yes I’m basic)
Cool, tho the double/Triple type repeating seems weird.
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9c0d68ac6363614fb3a55ce4217cf49179c0308b93d4d1fedaa39f7b9f8044e0.jpg Botw update. The final battle begins soon. I have enjoyed this game so much that I am kind of upset that I am so close to the end. On the bright side there are some quests I can still do and I plan 100 percent to get the dlc later so that should be fun. I think I will start ultra sun after I finish this. Or maybe even Mario Odyssey. We shall see.
So close to completing the pokedex
Literally 6 mons left
Damn dood
:3
AAAACK THEY CHANGED SHOWDOWN AND ALL MY TEAMS ARE MISPLACED
My first new team win…I got lucky and I feel like this team sucks
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7uu-662625770
Earthen… KLEFKI?!
I’M EXPERIMENTING UU IS REALLY STRESSING ME OUT
EVERY TIME I TRY TO ADJUST I JUST KEEP LOSING
Wanna battle? I’m making a team too
no…….i want to use some new builds but i keep losing to all my usual threats
I honestly don’t know what I’m doin either
I want to try the Bulk Bewear out but so far its been crap
I have a few mons I’d love to try out
Honestly i’m just gonna focus on USUM…..
Get to the battle tree
unlock IV checker
get all 100 TMs
move my team builders from Sun (i want to teach my A. Exeggutor Skill Swap)
start hunting down Everstones
And maybe start working towards whatever i need to do for the oval and shiny charms….
otherwise breed my stuff for moon yadda yadda yadda…and after all that i might make a new file on Breath of the Wild but my competitive pokemon vitality is fleeting
Same tbh
in other news, my Kommo-o is seriously climbing the levels, would you believe he’s already level 73
Holy crap
And with Kommolium Z at his beck and call
But i have to say…I loved every moment raising the little prince…
In my weaker moments…after i finished my Dragon Trial…i wanted to write that i released him
Tbh I’m mixed on the mon
OK WHAT THE HELL PRANKSTER DEFOG WONT WORK IF A DARK TYPE IS UP
>;3
Honchkrow really is the best flying type
Yeah it’s awesome 🙂
I’m sorry that doesn’t sound like Aerodactyl
https://img00.deviantart.net/0929/i/2014/023/e/b/mega_aerodactyl_by_nganlamsong-d6yllu8.png
Dark>Rock
Rock beats flying, nuff said
Rock is weak to half the game
Nuff said
Honchkrow has Superpower & is faster than most rock types
But is it faster then the fastest Rock type aka Aerodactyl? even faster as Mega
Superpower does neutral damage v Aerodactyl and Honchkrow also has access to Steel Wing btw 😛
BUT will it be fast enough to use it OR live through a Stone Edge?
i will make it fast enough
…..you can’t
Honchkrow’s Speed is 71
while
Aerodactyl is 130
And sure you can slap a Scarf on it but i’m confident Aerodactyl can tough out a Steel Wing or Superpower to land a 1HKO rock move
That’s a funny way to spell Toucannon

I wish Kommo-o was better
dude it gotr Close Combat, a Z-Move, AND DRAIN PUNCH
I know but like it’s so weird when you run its z move because you need to run mix
Isn’t that good though
a mix of both
Clanging Scales to get the boost
then recovery with Drain Punch
and you get either Iron Head/Poison Jab/Elemental Punches for coverage
Here’s the thing
It forces it to run a defense lowering nature
And once you use it Clanging is kinda like an empty slot
Well nothing is perfect,
and speaking of the scale clad warrior
He’s tearing Red a new one as we speak
Hmm
Clangorous Soulblaze is the win button
Not in comp
i mean….to a lesser extent but it could potentially be a win button
Drain Punch is incredibly weak coming from Kommo-o even at +1. Same with Iron Head and Poison Jab. Realistically it needs +2 To even have a chance of sweeping. And that means getting off a DD as well as your z-move.
The main issue with its Z-move is that’s it relegated to being a setup move to allow Kommo-o to do more damage as opposed to being a one time nuke when you actually need it…
Clanging Scales being Physical would have made a world of difference…
^^
Exactly
I wish Jangmo-o was avaible at level 25
Worst pseudo-legend? Worst pseudo-legend.
Well Goodra gives it a run for it’s money
At least Goodra isn’t butt-ugly.
Goodra is adorable
Nah it’s Ok, the worst are Heidreigon and Tyranitar
Are you on drugs? I think you are
Heidreigon is ugly, weird and annoying in battle. Tytanitar has a weird typing, weird mega and is overrated
Yep you’re on drugs
You have to be insane
Hydrogen I can get the ugly part (I personally think it’s cool), but Tyranitar has a weird type? I think if you want overrated your meaning Salamence
Seriously its a x4 weak to ice, typical Dragon/Flying type (My least favorite Dragon and is in my Top 10 least favorite Pokémon)
Except Tyranitar got even better with USUM release…
How so?
It didn’t gain anything directly. But it is an excellent stop to two strong new additions in Naganadel and Blacephalon.
..
Are you high?
That’s a weird way to say Salamence?
I mean, Salamance Looks pretty cool and the backstory is kinda neat
Tfw you accidentally volt switch the manetric
I JUST LOST TO AN ACROBATICS SCIZOR FML
AAAAAAAAAARGH i donno what ball to use for Articuno
Great maybe? Dive works on the outside but the explosion doesn’t so much.
Ultra it was cos i ran out of great balls sadly
Kommo-o: Gets stab, a broken Z-move, drain punch
A bit better
Araquanid- Just gets sticky webs
*Becomes a god*
Araquanid was a god from day 1 pal
Oh I know
I used one nonstop in comp
But now? It’s SOOOO far beyond
The annoying thing is rebreeding… I have a shiny one already
I wanna battle you Earthen-kun
Ok so almost at the end of melemele.
IMO there are enough changes to keep me happy.
The opening is less tedious, there’s more plot with URS who I love,they’re so mysterious and unorthodox.
Level curves are better. Mantine surfing or the big wave beach/cave expands on SM melemele. I like the overworld mons and ability to interact with them! The Alola photo club feature might be my fav as the game progresses.
In a nut shell yes they’re very similiar but there are enough changes for me and I appreciate the less stalling at the beginning.
The game feels very polished too.
Melemele is an abomination still, it gets a lot better though
Way better than SM for me :]
5 hours in melemele
I almost returned the game I was so bored
Also why are people saying the ultra recon squad is cool? They suck.
I think it’s just personal preferences. I can see people liking them easily and others hating them. I just like how unorthodox and alien like they are. They’re clueless and very wierd. That’s what I like.
I only played SM once which may be helping me in USUM but its good for me so far :]
So did I. I only played them once.
I honestly can’t believe that they made getting a starter faster and nothing else. It’s dreadful and I never want to play gen 7 again purely because of melemele being so damn boring
I mean its a major improvement over SM soo less clutter with Kukui etc and getting your starter.
Although it maybe not be much I do feel that you are more in the main game with URS appearance and features like APC/Mantine surf makes melemele feel more active/interesting/diverse then SM melemele which was more of a slow introducing process to Alolan life.
If you’ve only played SM once I’m surprised it bored you so much fam
Do they? The URS is just shoved in randomly and Mantine surf isn’t even a thing until you leave the island. What about it makes the island feel more active?
You know what would’ve been better? If Mele Mele was actually totally overhauled.
Or even better, we don’t set foot on Mele Mele until about half way through the game. Seriously man we should have started on one of the other islands…
Akala would be so much better.
It’s the best paced island in the story anyways
Well it certainly has plenty to do. Poni island was my least favourite in the original. Mele Mele i forgave as a sort of tutorial island, but Poni was rubbish…
By active I mean there’s more life/more things to do not necessarily related to plot.
Firstly we have Alolan photo club which maybe a small feature but its still something extra to do.
Mantine surf maybe at the end but its still part of the experience,part of melemele
I like the side quests such as the one in Haouli Hall.
As for URS I am one of the people who enjoy them you seem to be the opposite
Ok so I’ve not listed anything revolutionary but we have to remember that we’re talking about the beggining part of the game, surely we can’t be expecting BF.
And yeah an overhaull woulda been better but im ok with how it is I feel its good enough, could have been worse:]
Yeah we could’ve had what XY did, a 1st route that has 0 Pokémon on it
Yeah exactly as the games are not sequels we can’t really be expecting BW2 level of changes. However there have still been a good amount of changes on melemele. Honestly so far well done GF but I want you guys to go all out on Switch!!
Your expectations have to be so low I swear
No my expectations were higher I expected more change, just it’s harder to disappoint me and easier for me to express appreciation.
Keep in mind I have yet to complete the game to form my final opinion but as it stands I’m happy.
And if I don’t see major changes on the switch then you’ll see my fury at GF like you’ve never seen before ?
Yeah I admit, just giving me a Pokémon game is enough
When I play a new Pokémon game for the first time I always love it (including 3rd versions and remakes)
People would be better off if they thought like you and maybe me. Like just focusing on positives rather than complaining about every minute detail lol xD
Ugh, I can’t sign in to my regular Gmail on YouTube without my Chrombook signing me out of my school Gmail on Google Docs
Well I was absent from here yesterday. It was a very busy day and I was not able to make progress on UM. So I still stand at 6:00 of gameplay and have yet to reach the Alola Photo Club. I might be busy today as well and the day after, and the day after…In other words, I feel like I am being stranded on Melemele while everyone else is finishing these games.
I haven’t started yet.
The misery of others does not make me any happier. But I am glad that I may be stranded with you.

Kommo-o coming through
Yeah the start is terrible…but keep watching
I enjoyed your Stakata however you spell it demolition you posted yday :]
So what’s the last move you’re running?
Poison Jab
Good to know
Just encountered my first shiny in USUM, not surprisingly via a Worm Hole. Will post a pic once i get back to the PMC
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/a4ca46f8d2418b2d5e9e4cdba91114751a5e734edb532d2c8d2eb36490f634fc.jpg
The best Fire/Rock Type in Pokemon.
i see what you did there 😉
So is everyone doing the worm hole method to find shinies? I might even search for them now… Sounds super easy.. super quick… Lol. The way I like it.
I’m not hunting for shinies but since encountering a legendary is more likely to occur the farther you go in the worm holes is also the method to increase shiny encounters, its most likely to happen.
It’s good but as a warning there’s only 20 Pokémon it works on
O… Ok
A few Pokemon Parody ideas i had:
“There ain’t more Rocks to climb~ (Feat. Magcargo)”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkSN-kqAmxw
“Hello Roto”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6OXwTqpWbs
“Steppin’ on Mantine Beach”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUCmr9YfGv0
I always wanted a parody of Katy Perry’s Roar about Incineroar
Can I SR to get a shiny totem or are they locked?
Locked
Sigh
And now i run into Xerneas. What ball to use?
Love?
Great would be best but if you’re still out of those then maybe Quick?
Luxury
NO USE BEAST BALL
Yeah Beast works, I don’t know how many you’d need, like a 100 at least I expect.
I used 7, just caught it in a beast ball 😀
Wow, nice, you must be lucky. It took ages for me to just catch a Munchlax in one.
It was on 1 HP & i had thunder wave, plus it ran out of Horn Leech PP i think
WAIT DOESN’T QUICK BALL HAVE AN X ON IT?
Level or beast
So I’ve cleared my mind a bit. Here are my honest thoughts on the game and warning, it’s long and not pretty.
Having completed the game and currently finishing up the last of the post game stuff, I will say that the game on it’s own is good. It does not deserve one star ratings. I’ve played one star games and this is clearly not one of them. However, I can also clearly notice that so little minimal effort was put into this game. As a third version it is incredibly dissapointing, but I already played through it and paid for it so I only have myself to blame. If you’ve never played Sun and Moon, you can pick this version up because it’s clearly better and fixes minor issues that made Sun and Moon worse. These games practically make them redudant. However, the problem with the game is that it really should’ve been DLC or one version. It would’ve gone a lot better with the reception if that was the case.
But instead, we got two versions for the full price of $40 without any major changes to the gameplay other than minor story fixes and some new Pokemon added to it.
For that reason alone, this is probably the worst “third” version of a Pokemon game I played next to Crystal ( but even then, I would want to play Crystal over this a bit more) Because even though third versions are just DLC in itself there’s still something NEW. A new Legendary Pokemon. A New gameplay change. Something really. Even with Emerald and Platinum, they are clearly superior and make their games better. They practically make themselves one of their kind. Even BW2 ( if you consider that a third game) has way more than this game could ever give you.
But USUM? We already know of Necrozma so that surprise is gone there. I admit I was excited to learn more about it, but even then it didn’t make up for some of that lost excitement. There were too many glaring flaws that bogged this game down and I would be more excepting of these flaws if this was there first game. But it isnt. And that’s the ducking problem. This isn’t Sun and Moon. This is a enhanced version. And you’re telling me this is ALL you can do? The game that’s the send-off for the 3ds and THIS IS ALL YOU DO? I am very disappointed. Not as a consumer, but as a Pokemon fan. Gamefreak can do better and I know they can.
Yeah, Starter Pokemon don’t take a half an hour to get anymore, but they still force feed tutorial down your throat. ( And don’t tell me it’s for new players either. My little brother was a half an hour in and just wanted to catch a Pokemon and he asked why the tutorial took so long. If a little kid is asking that, you know, your TARGET AUDIENCE, there’s a problem).
Yeah, there are story changes but those changes seldom appear until 3/4th of the way in and even then, it’s great but so short.
Yeah, there are new features and Pokemon, but the encounter rate for the new Pokemon is still complete garbage. It took me an hour to find an Alolan Pichu.
Seriously, you have to have the patience of a saint to get through this game’s 3/4ths quarter to get to the good stuff. The Necrozma stuff doesn’t start until you’re 3/4 into the game and before then there is simply not enough to keep you interested. Melemele is still a chore to get through and the fact is, your audience will not continue to play the game if they find it boring. It doesn’t matter if you keep feeding them info about this new world. Gamefreak, just let them go into it. Don’t tell them everything. Just let them enjoy it.
Now as for me, I already mentioned in another comment that I loved SM and I really do. There were glaring flaws, but in that game there was a clear effort to make it something good. But I can’t extend that to USUM. It’s really a love-hate relationship for me. I love the minor changes they made to this game to make it more vibrant and the fact that it’s more difficult and that there’s actually a decent Post-game for once in a Pokemon game. But I also hate it because this game is kind of a waste. There is no need to spend $40 on this game UNLESS you ABSOLUTELY loved SM. If you didn’t love SM or even liked it, I can’t recommend it honestly. It’s not worth it and it won’t change your mind. Which is a shame. I guess to me, Alola will always be more style over the substance.
Sorry for the long post. Just my thoughts.
No worries you are entitled to your own opinion and I feel where you’re coming from. Maybe a lot of focus is on switch idk but ATM im just leaving melemele so I can’t say much.
I do however expect them to be a bigger improvement then PT and Emerald but we’ll see as I play more.
I feel you especially with the encounter rates. I found a pichu on rt1 WAY faster than I found a hawlucha on rt3 and hawlucha has a higher encounter rate. One would think that the encounter rate would be higher for pokemon that are “native” to that region… like there shouldn’t be a reason why I can find a mankey or a machop as often as a cuteifly
AND NOW ITS UXIE WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE?????????? TIMER BALL??
Ultra or Luxury, maybe Quick.
I ALREADY HAVE IT NVM
I tell a customer they can’t leave their cart “there” goes off and complains getting me in trouble
Maybe if u didnt overlevel this would have happened
It also could be because his highest leveled mon was a Kommo-o
Are we battling on Showdown?
Depends on tier
Can anyone help me with the pokedex? I need to touch trade please. Once I have these 5 I will be done before I even really get into Akala island
I need:
Poipole Naganadal
Cosmog
UB Burst and Assembly
I can help with Cosmog/moem.
Yay. FC?
FC: 0748 – 2744 – 4660 IGN: James
Do you need both? I need to get them from Bank.
No just Cosmog Sorry I’ll brb
OK, need your FC when ready.
FC: 1934-1146-1784
IGN: Zakai
Online now, request when ready.
Thanks so much. Sorry Ive been kinda busy
NP, glad I could help 🙂
OK, getting Cosmog now.
Alola Photo Club should include Poses for all signature Z-Moves
Signature Z moves use the same poses as their specific type..
Aren’t they like, a little diffrent?
Nope. They just have a different camera angle sometimes
Casc is absolutely right, they’re literally identical besides both of Pikachu’s, one which has a unique dance and one that doesn’t even have a dance
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7ru-662716170
Kommo-o being “useful” once again
Sorry I played like crap

Mantine surf is amazing!
My first attempt at it, what do you think guys??
I think it’s a decent first score, but I air until you unlock new moves and get even better. Then the real fun begins!
How do you unlock other moves?
You mean things that aren’t the twists? Git gud.
okey
Wow sounds awesome! This is the best side feature ever I love it:]
I just got my pikachu on the first day doing mantine surf. It’s fun and defenitly the best way to gain BP. I just got like 150 in less then an hour
Latest two

Nice finds, has it been fun getting them?
very fun
Im still salty
Still holding out for the glory that will be Mega Yanmega. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/f04976fcdc6e8d8b5b4d4866146562ddae6c194ebacdce4db35de2c19a59e342.jpg
2nd attempt I’m getting better but still got caught too many times! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/25e1cfdd7b4069accd2d14919ce98291abae07e2c7a1c1cee0f3235e03508469.jpg
You’re also on a higher difficulty, if you surf from Melemele you’re on the Easy Course, if you surf from Akala you’re on the Super Course, etc
So its easier to get points on an easier difficulty? So if I want higher score I should be surfing from melemele??
Each course has its own high scores and stuff
Oh I see. Well it reminds me of the Pokeathlon and I was crazy addicted to that, looks like I’ve found a new toy to keep me busy xD
Who else thinks S/M story (evil mother beast) was actually better then poor Necrozma in pain 10 minutes story?
@spectralseraph:disqus are you able to help me with my team soon? I have general ideas for them here https://drive.google.com/open?id=1SgTY4F-byCqmLtnsfk6II7aghg8-w5FojCL32dqdUh4
Eject button slowbro
EJECT BUTTON F**KING SLOWBRO
WHAT IS SHOWDOWN
Wait, did it also have recycle, cos I’ve run into it before…
No it didn’t
The team also had eject button on a torkoal
Someone who has a unique strategy
That’s not unique, their entire team had fucking eject buttons
That’s the most beautiful thing I’ve ever heard
It is
Literally it is the physical equivalent of a BTFO
That sounds like a unique phenomenon to me. Not the smartest, but it is unique.
Oh…
Yep
My list of shinies I’m hunting with corresponding pokeballs
Shiny legend pokeballs
Mewtwo – Dusk Ball
Entei – Heavy Ball/Ultra Ball
Suicune – Dive Ball
Lugia – Heal Ball
Latias – Quickball/Ultra Ball
Azelf – Great Ball
Uxie – Quick Ball
Mesprit – Heal Ball
Virizion – Love Ball/Heal Ball
Cobalion – Beast Ball
Terrakion – Timer Ball
Yveltal – Luxury/Premier
Registeel – Beast Ball
Regirock – Really doesn’t matter just don’t kill it like ya did in ORAS
Regigigas – Master Ball
Palkia – Beast Ball
Giratina – Beast Ball
Real talk, why not Dusk for Yveltal
Cuz idk
Premier is nicer than Luxury for it (tho cherish is ideal)
I might do Mewtwo in Friend Ball, though it’ll likely fail so I’ll go for Dusk.
Latias I’d go Luxury, same with Uxie.
Yveltal I’d go Premier.
Regirock I’d choose Luxury or Ultra.
I think these are good matches though. GL getting them.
I think my Incineroar will have a personality like a cross between All Might and Bakugo (When angered) from Boku no Hero Academia. Also my Drampa might be a bit like Eraserhead.
I love this but it also made me think of Drampa with Eraserhead’s face which is no joke one of the most horrifying things I’ve ever pictured
Honestly it’s because of the hair going up when Drampa attacks being similar to Ereserhead using his Quirk and also his eyes going red from overuse are like Drampas.
I can see it
Mine’s just a gigantic A-Hole
Always itching to fight
Boasts its power
Relentlessly competitive
Not afraid to cut loose and really go all out
That seemed a bit obvious to me, I wanted it to be more heroic but with an angry “I’ll kill them all” side.
So tell me, is Gunk Shot available via Tutor before Post Game?
I believe it’s at the battle tree tutor, so post game.
Grrr that’s makes me mad
I wanted to try and use Passimian on my team, but want a Fairy counter
Then just do it. There’ll usually be a type your team can’t counter well either
Yeah at least the only time Fairy is a big threat is Mina (Which Furball can probably just burn up with her Flamethrower)
It gets Iron Head as an Egg Move.
Ooo maybe it will get a Fairy counter then
Does nobody else on your team cover it?
Well I have hit no problems yet but when I get farther
-Incineroar will most likely struggle with them (does it get any Steel or Poison moves?)
-Lopunny doesn’t get coverage either
-Lycanroc won’t have it most likely
-Dewgong might have something
-Shiinotic may be Fairy, but no clue how it fairs against them
That is my issue with this generation, I am a fan of Fairy types but I like having my coverage too. Most of the steel types are legendaries, and Poison types are difficult to locate. There is AloSlash, AloTrio, Togedamaru, Toxapex, Salazzle, and AloMuk. Pretty limited on choices here.
They are fantastic Poison types though. Also you can get enough coverage on other ‘mon, even if it’s just neutral.
Yeah we need the variety excluding Alolan forms, we got one single Steel type that wasn’t legendary of UB
found a second shiny Swanna…
Is there one Pokémon per portal or no?
yea
What could ruin a regional variant of your favorite Pokémon?
As in what is the absolute last thing I would want as a regional variant of my favourite Pokemon…
Fairy Type Metagross
’nuff said
Plz explain
Oh come on imagine a ribbon armed metagross strangling stuff to death
I’m imagining it as a Fairy/Fire type birthday cake with Ribbon Arms and a candle X on its’ face.
Dragon/Fairy Dragonite
That’s the best thing ever
Lopunny becomes Bunnelby
The horror
anything that makes Earthen happy
https://media.tenor.com/images/1afc55e9fd2bc91de7ab5f2ce6499aed/tenor.gif
Ruining its actual design
This, also a bad typing like Rock/Normal
That to
I want a Normal/Rock Mountain Goat
Mines called Precibex
I wouldn’t mind the type on another ‘mon.
Same
Lillie and Gladion are probably screaming internally since I won’t progress through Poni Island. But the Mantine Surf Course is so challenging and I really want to beat it lmao. The struggle is real >_<
Im lost in the ultra wormhole
I guess he’ll have to just practice that pose he does every time he talks to you
The chunni hand thingy? I can basically get that down at this point
I can do it cause memes
It’s all he does
He also has a phone where he probably types null over and over
3 and a half hours and I’m free until Saturday
But later we should do some multibattles
Scrollin’ through YouTube, sees a 17-minute video showcasing all of the new Z-moves in USUM…(sigh).
W E L P
My sentiments exactly. I type this as my sister takes a Snapchat of me. Neither of us attempting ordinary human interactions such as talking.
Without a doubt Kommo-o and Araquanid are moving up a tier
Is Kommo-o still the worst Pseudo?
It depends to be honest
So would it be a close competition between Kommo-o and Hydreigon (my favorite Pseudo but Fairy types and middling speed do not help it)?
No Hydreigon is actually considered to be quite good
It’s between Kommo-o and Goodra, Kommo-o has a small lead
That is nice to know. Actually I am wondering what are the tiers of Pseudos. Would it be…
Salamence
Metagross
Garchomp
Tyranitar
Dragonite
Hydreigon
Kommo-o
Goodra?
Counting megas, possibly. Tyranitar and garchomp are close considering the new meta
Yea, I was counting Megas. Thanks.
Yw
Sorry if I’m annoying you, did you get a chance to look at my team yet?
Oh wait crap put that here again
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1SgTY4F-byCqmLtnsfk6II7aghg8-w5FojCL32dqdUh4
Why so many z moves?
Only because I haven’t used them, this is more for in-game. Afterwards I’ll change them to Life Orb for Mimikyu etc.
Hmm.. what tier?
Any, I probably won’t use this exact team for competitive, I just like to have them at their general competitive best for if I want to use any of them.
Hmmm… as of now it’s a tad unbalanced
What should I do?
First of all, Lycan dusk and Drampa are not exactly good. Incineroar can work in a much lower tier but not anything high
OK, they can be relegated to in-game use only then.
Where’s a good place to double battle in SuMo? I want to put moves on my Smeargle.
Got a Poipole from the GTS! 😀
Cool, I’ll be needing to do that when I go after my Shiny Charm.
Its nice that shiny stay shiny in the ultra wormhole for regular mons or i would of had my first fail
I just got to Poni. How long do I have to wait until I get Mimikium Z?
You don’t get it through the main story. You need to follow Mimikyu in the Thrifty Megamart at night, according to this guide I found
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7pu-662775595
If any mods happen to see this, when will it be okay to talk about Zeraora?
I don’t think there should be a problem discussing it.
Okay, thank you! 😀
When I get home I’m gonna try and find a wormhole shiny
What’s your distance record so far
Mines like 5,526
How many light years is the perimeter of Melemele. That is my record so far.
If I may open this thought to discussion, A lot of the Pokémon in this generation are very humanoid in shape. Do you think his has anything to do with a newer team of people working on Gen 7? Also do you think there will be less of Pokémon like these in the next generation since it has been reported that the veterans are working on them? Finally, what region do you want to see the next games to be based on?
Myself:
I would say yes to my first two thoughts and I would prefer to go to a colder region. Especially since we are going to end up having 4 years in regions that are hot-ORAS and SM/USUM-if we end up getting Gen 8 during Holdiay season next year.
Hmmmm…. possibly? I don’t know if it’s the same people though…..
Sorry for asking you to clarify but the same people as who (I am assuming you are talking about the veterans)?
I mean like I’m pretty sure some of this gens designs were made by veterans
My hope/idea is a Big UK region divided into 4 parts (like Alola) with a small Ireland Region next to it. You can visit Kalos Post game.
I liked this concept initially with SM, especially with how they divided up the Pokédex. However, regions like these may have contributed to the lack of new areas to be added if a 3rd version or sequels to be made. USUM is the example. Of course they can just do away with 3rd versions and sequels in future generations. I mainly want a colder region so there will be more ice-types introduced in the generation. I think Sinnoh is generally treated as the coldest region and they added 7 new Ice types. That and I want a couple of cold years. Gen 8 followed by DP remakes or Platinum remake (depends on whether they decide to do away with the two versions model or not).
The UK is four different countries. I’d be disappointed if my country was crammed into the game as 1/4th of a game :>
There’s no chance they’d make a region based on one of the Four UK countries, so the only representation you could get would be as a part of the UK region.
If by humanoid you’re referring to the Ultra Beasts, then I doubt we’ll be getting similar designs unless there will be another story arc involving them. I would love to see a region based on Greece, and maybe changing up the Gym formula again to involve the mythological gods/goddesses or relics of some sort.
No I am referring to Salazzle, Lurantis, Tsareena and the final evolutions of the Starters. I would also like to see a return to the Gyms next generation and a change to the formula to incorporate the local myths would be really cool. They did that with the trials to convey how secluded the region is. However, it may be unlikely considering how they really shoved down the sci-fi elements with the Ultra Beasts on a region based on Hawaii. I guess it depends on how willing Gamefreak is to take a risk.
I really hope Ultra Beasts reappear, or like the 3rd legendary is an UB, just so we can have totems. Or Maybe something simmilar to Totems but more just spawning im the wild, Maybe with a diffrent name… Raid Pokemon, maybe?
I am not sure what to hope for. They have been changing up how many legendaries are introduced each generation-especially in gen 7. I honestly wonder how they are going to handle legendaries If they abandon the double version model. The strong legendary trio was introduced in Gen 3 since it best capitalized on the release model they did. Dual versions followed by a 3rd version. If they went the single version route, I was thinking they might just do one Cover Legend, a minor trio or quartet, and miscellaneous legendaries. (Could be UB, something specific to the region’s mythos, or something else).
The humanoid ones would also include ultra beasts like Pheromosa and Buzzwole.
I’d say that I want Gyms back and trial like things for post or side quests (Still am trying to build my own idea for this), UB’s can come back idc either way they are all Pokémon, I want to see one of the following be done for Gen.8: Australia, Canada, Italy, Germany, or India (if Yungoos exists in the Indian region of course)
What should i use to catch Prinplup?
Heavy Ball Maybe?
Your heart.
Rational side: Heavy Ball seconded.
Either dive or heavy
Man today has been a very long day…….I still have an hour left of work and I’m soooooooooo tired……been up since 7 and my back is starting to get stuff and sore……I just wanna go home, relax, and play Pokemon
Amazon cancelled my steelbook, I guess everything does happen for a reason
Sorry pal. Have you still not played yet then? That’s a real bummer if you’vr been waiting all this time just to have your order get cancelled
nah i got ultra sun i mostly bought it for the collectible steelbook as i collect those
Gotcha. well it’s still a bummer you couldn’t get the steel case. They’re pretty cool. I’ve always considered trying to get them, but then I hear stories like yours where orders are cancelled.
Ok with all the negativity with USUM I wanted to say something great GF has done.
Mantine surf. What a great feature, graphically amazing and the overworld water mons adds to the realism. And its addicting.
But what’s even better you get early and easy access to move tutors, vitamins etc
This alone makes USUM an amazing game for me.
Too many Wailords. 7.8/10.
Haha well played :]
Or you could say too many fish in the sea 😛
My only problem with Mantine surf is I feel like sometimes the block Pokemon spawn too close to each other. I’ve had times where there are just lcusters of them and I can’t possibly pick up steam
Haha yeah I see what you mean but it adds to the difficulty and makes it less predictable I’d say :]
Nah it’s actually just bullshit but whatever
Very true. Still fun tho
Surfing at dusk and night is magical
It really is the graphics are out of this sea. Pun intended 😛
Ultra wormhole riding is 100 times better then that
I haven’t played it yet but can’t wait 2 check it out. If it’s 100 times better as you say :]
The only thing I dont like about it is that it’s just kind weird, though fun. It’s just one giant wave that spans the entire distance between islands? I feel like it’d be better if there were just a bunch of different waves rather than just one giant one.
It’s better for the game play tho
I know, but the logic of it kinda bothers me
Fam
Electric Psychic mice on surfboards thanks to pancakes
This isn’t the franchise for logic
Girl, I know. But the thing with pokemon like that is that it’s essentially magic while giant waves still function according to our world. But it’s fine, it’s not a bad minigame
Maybe they just have bigger waves? Their logic doesn’t have to be a 1:1 to ours
Well I mean it was probably just for gameplay rather than to show their laws of physics are different 😛
I never said it was different, I just suggested an option :p
I predicted it would be the best part of the games
Gastrodon in USUM is the most random overworld pokemon ever lol
Haha wow a gastro.
I haven’t seen one yet myself
Blue or Pink? I prefer Blue myself.
ngl im addicted to ultra warp ride
GameFreak needs to add more mini games that have nothing to do with battle. Warp, Mantine Surf and Pokeathlon are all amazing
I’m addicted to pokebeans
*Stuffs a handful in my mouth*
I can quit anytime I want
Wow can’t wait 2 try it. That’s 2 amazingly fun, graphically great and rewarding features in USUM. These games are great :]
Lure ball for Lombre/ludicolo or Nest?
Nest.
Can someone trade me a Blacephalon for a moment so I can register it in the dex?
its urgent
No
Have you tried reddit? Here you can ask for tradebacks https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemontrades/new/
These man casually battling with Kartana lmfao i love this game https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9f13b04a9f8f2e102c3130c1493f6f70d5ec3211819e108fcd3872490291bab6.jpg
Tbf, they’re probably common asf in their world
I wonder if future pokemon games will do more of this stuff & actually let us explore these worlds a bit more. Doubtful tho knowing GF
I love my Grandmother, she went out and bought me from McDonald’s, the Grubbin and Yungoos toys from McDonald’s. Though because I’m headed to my other grandparents, I won’t get them till Friday
That was nice
That was kind of her. Does that mean you have the whole set now?
After 7:08 of gameplay I have finally Mantine Surfed and gotten to Akala Island! Time for more exciting trials!
Similiar to me ive just arrived at Akala. Not sure about game time probably about 10 hours maybe more :]
ALL POKEJUNGLE MEMBERS LIVING IN THE UNITED STATES
The FCC will soon be voting to cut Net Neutrality completely. Net Neutrality is what keeps the internet open and free. Without it, your internet provider can throttle sites and control what you do online.
Without it, big companies can pay to slow down their competition for the end user. For example, Hulu could pay your internet provider to slow down Netflix and speed up Hulu making you pay more.
This affects every single thing you do online and all of you use the internet.
If you play Pokémon show down, this will affect you, if you rely on sites like Pokejungle and Serebii for Pokémon news, this affects you. If you play any game online including Pokémon… THIS AFFECTS YOU
visit the link to read more about Net Neutrality and what you can do to save it. If you can take the time to post here you can take the time to protect the internet
https://www.battleforthenet.com/#bftn-action-form
This is so important. I hate that this is even a thing to question. Internet freedom has become a right, not a privilege, in this age. Doing this is like a dictatorship.
It’s unbelievable. Everyone needs to understand what this means and what they can do. I encourage you to tell IRL friends and family members because a lot of mainstream media outlets aren’t putting much out about this.
I would but no-one I know IRL lives over there. It is good general advice though. The thing that worries me is if America does it, how many others will follow? I think we’ve already had it questioned here under the guise of ‘protection from porn’. The thing is Porn may well be an addiction to some and harmful to people, but blocking it for everyone isn’t the right option. Of course it is really an excuse to monitor people, collect information and select what we can see. It is a power nobody should have.
Exactly no one should have the right to tell me what to do online
If I can’t come here anymore because of this… look for me on national news, I’ll be the one who destroyed the FCC headquarters
This reminds me of the FCC episode of Family Guy. It’s essentially a step so your Government can select what you see, it may be moving their preferred news to the top of your searches or outright preventing you from looking for alternatives to their narrative. This is what China does.
I will literally e-mail the fcc or even the white house with a long a$$ speech saying that how can we be a great country when we are doing exactly what Russia, China and North Korea have done censorship
Keep it on TV not the internet
Imo no form of media should be censored. Some should be removed if for instance inciting terrorism but the intelligence services are largely on that. The Dark Web will still be unaffected I think so really they won’t stop anything by doing this.
Yeah, I have to say if they really want to target something, target the dark web before all else
That’s really hard to do though. I think the most they can do is try to monitor it, and even then I’m not sure what they are currently capable of.
Well I hope you do something about it, I don’t want you Muricans gone cause PJ is too expensive. (And also I gotta hope Polish net providers don’t figure out how to do that)
Goddamit dude … why… i hate this country
Love living here, but I hate the people who run it
^ kinda
I love it how no one here likes Trump, his goons or anything that seems to Republican related here
Go Mudbray Party!
:3
Call your congressperson my dude.
I don’t even have time for that ….
As soon as you do, do it
Hmm
I would, but I’m in the car
Came here just to mention this, glad somebody else already cared enough to.
I remeber the mods featured something like this back in July, might be a good idea to do that again.
Say no more 😉
Great, this’ll help for visibility!
Or better yet, make an article about it. More people will see it
Hey, that’d help too, but I doubt it’ll happen.
Wow, okay, so I just called and it said my states rep’s mailbox was full. I mean, I guess that’s a good thing if it was full due to net neutrality messages..
SECOND SHINY OF TODAY I AM SCREAMING https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/e9ad0a242e3e13e983f10ddc2222eb816eeb5843fc072c4575ac9bf9341a5d25.jpg
Nice, Power Rangers monster shiny 🙂
WHAT BALL TO USE???
Dive
Got it 😀
This is so dumbbbb, I have two final mons before I get the shiny charm….
What are they? Did you try the link I gave you?
Also thanks for looking over my team earlier, I’m still not sure what EVs or Moves to give but I’ll work it out.
I will when I get home
Stakataka (I’m getting this myself in a few) and Blacephalon
Just go here https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemontrades/new/ submit a trade with the tag tradeback. Or if you have spare UB version exclusives you could try trading those, or other rare ball ‘mon on the GTS.
Okaaay
I mean
It’s meant to be post game and hard to get, it’s an extremely valuable item
I knooooow but like technically it’s going to be one final mon….
Lmaooooo I got wiped by Ultra Necrozma so I just imported my Lv 100 Zoroark thru Pokémon Bank and still ended up being defeated because my Zoroark was disobeying me ?
It’s ridiculously OP. I don’t know how it compares to Mega Rayquaza but it is broken.
Oh hey just the person I wanted to see… what do you wanna trade for that A. Sandshrew?
The Heavy Ball one?
I’m not picky about balls ?
Well I’m wondering which one you are referring to and where you saw it. At the moment I am looking for Apricorn Ball Pokemon mostly. I can probably just breed you one if you don’t have any though.
I just want one with Slush Rush and maybe some egg moves if you feel generous… unfortunately I don’t have a lot of apricorn Pokés but if it’s a dealbreaker I’ll work on finding you what you want in whatever ball
Nah it’s OK I’ll just breed you one.
Thanks I really appreciate it ? but the trade might have to wait until tomorrow, it’s late here in Germany.
Do you play in german? Can you breed 5IVs? I can trade tomorrow.
I think I have a 6IV ditto laying around. What Pokémon do you want? And no I’m American unfortunately I live in Europe right now
Oh OK then. I’m just looking for a 5IV Male Smeargle that isn’t English language. Anyway just @ me here when you are available tomorrow and I should have it ready for you.
Okay thanks again! Idk about smeargles but I’ll find you something good ?
Btw everyone who has Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp we all need to add each other so we can help each other have good camps. My friend code on ACPC is 67349701422
So I’ve gotten enough stickers for my first Totem. What nature should I soft-reset for Totem Raticate?
Adamant.
I just got Adamant without having to soft-reset. Is this a sign for me to use the worst Alola form? Nah!
Nop, it’s a sign to open a restaurant in Kalos.
Jolly
Ugly nature ?
Correct answer.
Rate my team or suffer the consequences

She’ll smash Cloyster still gives me nightmares.
It got buffed with Liquidation
So I had initially planned to use Bewear on my team, but I’m not sure if it’s as useful as Togedemaru. In addition I will have Incineroar, Lycanroc, Mimikyu, Lurantis, and Araquanid.
It’s much better than Togedemaru as long as you have Fluffy I think.
Should I make room for Togedemaru elsewhere or is my team okay?
I think it’s OK. Depends if you really want to use it above others. If you remove anything for it it’ll likely be Lycanroc or Lurantis.
Your team looks like it needs a special presence. Meaning, all of the Pokés on your team are physical attackers.
What would you recommend :3
It’s only for the main story, I’ll likely end up breeding another team if I wanna do competitive.
Ribombee, Drampa, A. Ninetales just to name a few
Vikavolt is fun too
……..So the spiky rodent isn’t as good as the massive pink killing machine?
ANyone wanna touch trade Blacephalon with me please?? I have stakataka! and Naganadal. I just one more and my dex is complete
Hi sweetie ?? Lol I don’t have a Blacephalon I just wanted to say hi bae ???
You saying hi is even better than a Blacephalon <3!
I’m Mind Blown by you… and it’s super effective ??
Try a tradeback here https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemontrades/new/ if nobody here is there yet.
SAME HERE
I’ve been enjoying Pocket Camp a LOT. Definitely my favorite Nintendo mobile game so far, no contest. Please give it a try if you’re new to the Animal Crossing franchise, because as a fan, I’m actually amazed that it feels like…well, genuine Animal Crossing!
Really pretty bummed that Alolan Sandslash doesn’t learn Ice Beam……really would have liked the option of having it……
Why? It gets Icicle Crash and Spear.
I know, but Ice Beam is a pretty reliable move. I’ll have the Icicle moves on anyway tho.
Alolan Sandslash has one of the lowest special attack stats of all Pokémon 😡
Honestly it is only a physical Pokemon. There is no real point trying special on it.
I guess
You do realize its base sp attack stat is literally only 25?
Oh I don’t care lol
I mean you’re just not going to do any damage with a move like that. If this was gen 3 before the physical and special split, you’d probably be good, but Icicle Crash can flinch, which is way better than freeze.
It’s less of a thing I’d actually use and more that I like Ice Beam and wish it was on all Ice types ok……You don’t need to convince me of anything hahaha

SplaTWOon
This is awesome. I need to play me some Splatoon
Earthen, I need a minor favor
You need to perform the ritual to summon him.
So he must stamp his feet and roar to the skies “LONG LIVE THE LAAAAAANNNND!”
No that’s the pre ritual ritual. All Earthen summons require blood sacrifices.
Hmm sacrifice a seagull, they already are pests
I live in an area overrun with them so be my guest.
Can I borrow your Blacephalon for dex completion purposes? I’ll give it right back

So… can ya?
I am feeling so unwell right now guys :/
What’s up? Somethings been going around my area and I keep getting it.
Oh everything.
I have a burning temperature, I feel as weak as a Magikarp and to top it of my nose is messed up too
Sounds like what I’ve been having. https://media.tenor.com/images/e226ae1d93278bf10282e185501151ab/tenor.gif
Thanks :]
I have took my obligatory get well paracetamol tablets!
Sorry to hear that…….Hope you feel better soon. It;s never too fun to be super sick….
Thank you friend :]
It really does kill your day but it hasn’t stopped me from playing ultra sun haha xD
That’s the way. When you’re sick play some video games
I’m sorry about that 🙁
I hope you feel better soon
Thanks Kurusu! And don’t be it has to happen to me at least once every year :]

Can I order some drinks too??
Feel better! :c
And my short lived glory on RU immediately ended via 4 consecutive matches of hax
I recommend staying off RU unless you’re testing certain mons (Kommo-o and Araq break the tier)
tell that to Shaymin haxing me and the stupid Rimbombee somehow IHKO’s Cloyster
git better 😀
*jumps onto a gogaot rides off into the sunse(
Ribombee? Wtf
No but seriously, a set up Kommo-o when I use it takes out two mons at minimum and Araquanid slows nearly everything
F*CK IT I’M ALAWAYS GOING TO BE A FREAKING LOSER, CAN’T DO ANYTHING RIGHT
Learn how to deal with hazards and Kommo-o before doing extensive RU.
Fairy types, Stat resetters, and soundproof mons do a lot. For example, if you come in on a cocky Kommo-O with your own, you can outpredict them and sweep. Earlier today I did that and 6-0d someone. I also run araq which , considering his godlike webs is nuts. He forces out specific matchups and webses. He also hits way harder than Galv and is a fair amount bulkier too.
I mean… that small buff pushed him into the OU viability rankings. He literally comes in clutch every game.
Doesn’t matter, everything is IHKOing Cloyster or Sigilyph
i’m losing way too much from every angle
Wonder if/when Pokecharms will update, want to make some new trainer cards.
Why won’t Rotom just shut up?!?!? I hate this…….RotoLoto is fine, but he keeps talking and all I want is to just see the map on the bottom screen………….
You know he’s why we can’t dive right? Shortcircuiting him is tempting.
Is that actually a reason from the game……….Whelp I hate Rotom for even more reasons now. Can’t wait for gen 8 to get here so we never have to worry about them trying to fill a bottom screen ever again.
No I made that up, they just couldn’t be bothered to add diving in to the perfect region for diving, this was the only excuse I could think of for their negligence.
What about on mantine when you sink
I haven’t played it yet but I’ll assume that doesn’t count.
Wow, that reality actually upsets me because dive was so needed in Alola
Would have been a really cool feature to have in Alola. Imagine us being able to dive and then find underwater caverns and hidden tunnels………..
It’s not the real reason, that would be laziness, but I would’ve loved dive in this region. Mantine Surf is cool but I’d like to dive and swim past the underwater ‘mon too.
8 god damn losses in a row
12
Maybe you just suck 😀
Asshole
you literally came at me for losing to hau and im the asshole?
At least you’re not losing to hax, i fall asleep for 3 full turns and he wakes up the very next turn
Earthen you’re the kind of person to blame a loss on hax when a one health mon gets crit
if he doesnt win, it haxs
I still have a code for 100 revives that came with my game. haha Some day I;ll find a reason to cash that code in.
100 revives?! I only got 100 potions :(.
Nope I’m a liar. Just checked the box and it’s 12 revives. I was WAY off haha
All I need is a Blacephalon to borrow…. just to get in my Pokedex
I know I asked a gazillion times but it’s all I need…..
Also I feel weird asking on Reddit since I don’t know them
It’s fine dude. Just ask on Reddit. Just don’t offer a valuable Pokémon.
I have never had trouble with the subreddit
Can ya re-link me I guess…. I lost it
https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemontrades/
You don’t need to know anyone there, it’s just a trade area.
Okay… I just feel nervous I guess.. I needs a link

it suits you
Don’t complain about getting a shiny. Unless that shiny is like Garchomp or something and sucks.
But it’s a stupid Audino (I have like 3 shinies already) and now I forever have the stain of this thing being my first UWH shiny and first overall Shiny in US
MY HONOR IS BESMIRCHED
Yeah, but it’s like 2 shinies in one since it has a mega
Tiny Kommo-o is tiny
No duh they’re barely over 5 feet
Also they kinda lean down and not stand all the way
I doubt they can stand up all the way, seeing how heavy their armour is. It’s still a midget tho
Does anyone have blacephalon to trade? Pleeeeeeease. I will trade it back!
The reason Kommo-o isolates itself is because it’s afraid of Sylveon
Find one piece of evidence that disproves this ?
Broke my record

Look what I got 😀

Nobody has a Blacephalon.. I need it so bad
FIIIIINE take mine
YAAAS I’ll only need it for a second!
You the blonde queer?
Ye
Can I get a touch too
Are you Zakai
Oh nvm no thanks sorry
I’ll only need it for a sec, I’ll give it right back!
If you find one can you trade it to me too. Pleeease I just need it.
Are you kidding?
THEY REMOVED THE LILLIE SCENE IN EXEGGUTOR ISLAND NOOOOO
Im fine with that ;3
I KNOW I WAS SO UPSET
MY SHIPP NOOOOOOOO
Why you mad? They altered it because they’re homophobic
True but it’s better than nothing >:(
I’d rather not be reminded about their issues with people who want to cross dress/love people of the same gender tho
It’s still a cute moment and it fuels my ship homophobia or not
The straight version of the scene was removed too, because Lillie doesn’t even come to Exeggutor island this time. This is practically lunging to conclusions
No I meant they altered it the first time because they’re homophobic. I imagine they removed it because they didn’t want to be labeled as such
I can’t remember any differences between the genders from my playthroughs but if making an eleven year old character straight is homophobic I’d remove that scene too lol
It’s not that, it’s that they didn’t want people to read into it between lillie and the female character. It’s just ridiculous they thought the slight change in dialogue was necessary when changing it is what caused people to raise eyebrows. But it’s no secret they’re super behind the times at gamefreak. Like every other nintendo franchise allows cross dressing except pokemon.
Or it’s just that Lillie is straight so a possible romantic aspect isn’t meant to be as obvious as it is with a male?
Games like Tomodachi Life and Animal Crossing let you crossdress because their models are extremely simple and they wouldn’t have to adapt it between genders. Mario and Zelda’s crossdressing is meant to be more humourous than anything. None of this is actually done because they’re progressive, Japan is a traditional country and Nintendo is all entertainment. It’s not a political statement at all.
If you think this is an issue compared to all the real issues gay people (including myself) have faced and continue to face, then I think you net to get your priorities straight.
I just think it’s stupid because it wasn’t romantic. “I want to travel together with you,” was changed to, “I’d like to become a trainer, and learn all the things you know.” It’s a stupid change. Apparently there can’t be close platonic relationships between females.
I also don’t have priorities when it comes to this, but I think more clothing and hair options are a change they should consider making in the future
What? They both imply Lillie wants to stay with you in some degree lol, because they both basically imply Lillie wants to be with you as she learns. It’s two different ways of basically saying she admires you and wants to learn from you, and both sound platonically pretty freaking close.
“Apparently there can’t be close platonic relationships between females.”
The whole story is about your relationship with Lillie fam. You get pretty platonic with her even with a very minor line change which can apparently be taken as homophobic even though both are roughly as romantic as each other.
Clothing and hair should be the bottom of the long list of things they should consider. Their core gamplay mechanics and story need sorted well before something which a fringe part of the audience want.
I’m in disbelief homophobia came up at all during this conversation when it had nothing to do with homophobia like at all.
Well yeah, homophobic is a bit of an overreaction and I don’t really think they are, but like I said, I think the change was completely unnecessary. You’re free to disagree, but I just cannot see any point in changing it the way they did. I would never have picked up a romantic hint from Lillie UNTIL they altered the dialogue. Honestly the exclusion of that scene from USUM is strange though.
Speaking of lines a game changed for the same scene, still salty about a very certain Yo-kai Watch scene
The Truck scene… When you first meet Jibanyan (a more or less secondary protagonist in the game) in the original he screams as he attacks a truck “Take this you evil beast!”, in the second game however it was changed to “Take this you dumb truck”… not a large change, but I found it annoying af that they changed one of my favorite scenes from the entire game
This is like saying we can’t be mad because something is racist.
I forgot how good the Vast Poni Canyon theme was! I love taking my time in this game for once because of the difficulty. My team members are all late level 50s so hopefully that’ll be good enough for the story sequence up ahead.
It’s super underrated
Well this night is just getting worse
My losing streak is getting worse
My laptop is glitching (it says it’s charging but the percentage isn’t changing and it been like that for a few hours)
And my dad is being really crotchety tonight

AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGHHHHHHHHHH
Been watching jackscepticeye play this
So I uhhh… I beat the final boss
https://gfycat.com/gifs/detail/QuarterlySilverGoldeneye
“OH MY GOD IT ACTUALLY WORKED”
Meet me on discord
Meh never mind
I had to spam First Impression like 4 times… There is literally no shame that Ultra Necrozma is a jerk to beat, you’d probably need a Kookodile or whatever it’s final move its packing
Photon Geyser
Power Gem
Smart Strike
Lol like… I know the things impossible which is why I freaked out when that actually worked
I got lucky with Refresh, Decidueye lived on one from four photons
Sparkling Aria does a lot of damage
I believe Dragon Pulse too
this is quite genius tbh
It’s total luck and bullshit lol. It only worked because of quick claw
How dare u kill god by this way?
HAHAHA
I KILLED GOD
HOLY SHIIT
You didn’t kill god
You killed stronger
I believe it won’t be so hard for me especially if I give Minty (Dewgong) Ice Beam and Furball (Incineroar) Darkest Lariet as I can’t say everyone will have the same problems,
Like heck y’all said I should’ve have level 14 and 15’s for Gumshoos and beat it with 13’s and 12’s
Incineroar dies in one hit guaranteed
What about Luna a Shiinotic?
Yep. Dead
Or a Passimian?
Dead several thousand times over
A Lopunny? Dusk Lycanroc?
Dead, dead
Hmm so your saying my whole team plan will be crushed?
Well hopefully Dewgong can survive and get a Sheer Cold in
Oh Passimian is already dead like before the fight has even begun
My Araquanid with base 135 special defense died in a single hit from a special attack
How under leveled?
10 levels, that’s how many levels higher it will be than you almost guaranteed
I’ll make sure to train up ahead of time
But it’s rock one
STill
Every one does
Oh honey
125BST Speed + 1
167 attack and special attack +1 in each
Its ability is expert belt
… I think Minty can live (I honestly am really looking forward to finally using Seel in a play)
Have fun :3
Nice. When can you catch it?
If you really wanna know victory road
You can catch it via island scan but I got an egg from fairy
I meant Necrozma I already have Ralts in every special ball except beast but thanks.
Oh no idea
This is absolutely brilliant! It took down all my team members but i used a max revive on my starter. Such a great battle!
I should’ve done that TBH. That fight was so scummy at how unfair it is. Like, I love the difficulty in this game, but how the hell do you anything against….THAT? The only reason I didn’t completely die was because I had affection clause on all my mons.
So i started ACPC. Made me realize, this game is anti-me with all the customization. Its not terrible tho.
I thin I’m going to SR for a shiny Poipole as my last team member. It’s such a good shiny the coloring is so cool! But this means I’m going to have to replace Noivern who has been with me since the beginning which is a little sad.
Do you have a Timid synchronizer? I recommend it. GL getting it 🙂
how soon do you get poipole?
Right after completing the main story arc involving Necrozma they offer it as a gift
Well Kommolium Z is banned
In RU
It was obviously going to happen
Cos its actually OP in that tier. I feel it’s a bit more balanced in UU . But we will see. If it gets banned to OU it won’t get any use at all which will be a shame…
You should try it out in doubles or in vgc. I am sure you can have some fun doing that.
Mina is my spirit animal
An artist girl who is just totally dead inside and loves fairy types
This’s not an animal
I don’t think you understood
I know wat spirit animal means
Humans are animals. Learn biology before coming for her lol
How dare to put that scum in animal kingdom?
I haven’t gotten to her trial, but from what I hear, I kinda like it.
I thought she was less dead on the inside and more stoner
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7uu-662987448
This is why you fear Bewear
I use an Assault Vest Bewear and it works wonders.
So I have been rethinking my team, and I am wondering if anyone can help me get a Glaceon before the 2nd Trial?
I would just need to trade the Eevee over and have this person level it up near the Icy Rock and trade it back to me. Anyone up for it before the night ends? (1 hour and 40 minutes).
I can do it, how far into Lanakila is the Icy Rock in Sun?
I think it would be quicker to get there if you head from the Pokémon League. Thanks. I can’t use Pokémon Bank because I left my SM games at my University. I can get on Festival Plaza now. My FC is 0791-2546-9720.
OK FC: 0748 – 2744 – 4660 IGN: James, can you attach a Rare Candy? I don’t want to level it too much.
Yea. Give me a sec.
Also like last time I am Soggy.
OK, coming online now.
Thanks again. Let me know when you are ready.
You want Icy Wind on it? Also I taught Quick Attack over Tackle, hope that’s OK.
Yes and that is cool.
What you want me to teach over for IW?
Tail Whip.
OK, coming back to trade.
I as well.
Thanks again for helping me out with one of these late night trades.
NP 🙂
Bruh what?? Your character’s name is Soggy?!
What should I name Necrozma
Kevin
Good answer I’ll choose that
YAAAS https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9cd8bc364794b82d681d8083daada33263813c6022ca296ac3753464fccfe507.jpg
Nice one, and in a beast ball too, that will be valuable for you to breed and trade for a while.
Did he use all these thunders on u?
Yep, killed half my team
Okay, the Animal Crossing app is pretty amazing. I take back what I said.
I caught Zygarde….in a premier ball. I was joking…. what?

So since I was never really that excited about USUM, since I never saw a reason to drop 50 bucks on a game that seemed only marginally different (though I’ve heard good things), looking forward, the next big game is gen 8/ switch and I’m thrilled. It might be too soon to get excited, but news will be dropping about the new starters, region, legendaries, titles, evil team, and more in the coming months and that is always such a great time for me. I look forward to things in life all the time but adding Pokémon news/ rumors to the daily excitement is such a blessing.
It will probably be much longer than a few months
If Gen 8 comes out next year, we’ll see obvious hints of it by the end of the year. Such as Zeraora being revealed with, or soon after, the movie.
Longer than a few months? If the games come out in November like sun and moon did, won’t we see the titles and things in May or earlier? And before that there wasn’t magearna right?
The games are for a whole new system fam. It probably wo t be out by 2018
Minor spoilers so I may or may not be tearing up because the credits are G/S/C/HGSS style
So I just finished breath of the wild and I must say that was a truely beautiful game! Was kind of sad ending it in all honesty. That said I will for sure being buying the expansion pass in the near future for the extra story lol I need more! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/b1510aca3a7156dd16b0f7512c5a56387be6aa8bbc666b7183b832eabce2b1cc.jpg
I love the outfits in this game!! I just got done karate outfit and I love it!!
Also I got the shiny charm before kiawe trial which is also handy
The hell?
He traded over all her Pokémon to fill the Dex then I think touch traded the new ones
I love it when I set up, they have a mon that directly counters me, I point it out to them out of pure pity and they LITERALLY DON’T EVEN SWITCH TO IT
So far all I’ve done in US is try to organize my competitive Pokemon and hatching eggs for the IV checker, I still need a full set of synchronizer and nature dittos
I have them in Sun but…would I ever need to go back in there ever again?
Trying to make a new name for my Dark/Flying Regional Bird Storkder, cause I found out a Murder is a group of Crows. So I’m thinking about Storkill, Storkiller or something like that. Any suggestions?
Is it a mix of Storks and Crows?
Just a Stork
Then why is there anything about crows involved? But I’d say for a name Storiller
There’s nothing with crows involved, I just didn’t know that a Murder was a group of storks when I made the name Storkder and now I thought that I should rename it.
Maybe you @EarthenWarrior ?
You’re great at fakemon names
Hmmmmm Storkruel is all I got but that clashes with my dark/flying Cuckoo bird Cookruel
*coughs violently*
I’m here too dawg
You should get that checked
Yeah, just Earthen is more likely to anwser after I compliment him, you don’t need that, right?
True
=_=
Then… you have any name suggestions?…
What ball goes best with shiny Drapion?
Hmm maybe Love? Or Repeat
SOMETHING IS WRONG
I left my Necrozma in Evelup for the necessary 63 sessions to max out his SpAtk and it’s saying it only went up by 114
Granted I haven’t developed it but that still shouldn’t mean the time needed changed OR HAS IT

IM PROUD DOG
Floor J*zz really saved your team in the end there. (I censored it in fear of getting this post put under approval by Disqus).
You’re forgetting the real star here
Araquanid ;3
Seriously, I would have 100% lost without those lunges
Well it’s a given that Bubble B***y will always be there for you. (In this day and age no one knows what words are safe or not).
Buddy is safe
Him and Floor Make an amazing team
I know. I was just making a joke.
;3
Bubble Booby
Stop this nao
https://i.makeagif.com/media/7-16-2015/k093Eo.gif
That is the spirit!
Shiny Drapion AND Swellow in under 25 mins, this really is insane.
I actually got a shiny
With my luck
All I got was a stupid Audino, nothing special
I just want something tough or useful
In the midst of attempting to catch Regirock. It has 3 HP left & paralysis
Regirock was my first wormhole legend, but I was stupid to not soft reset
Mine was regice… or it would be if I actually fought it
Oh i was specifically hunting for Regirock so i brought an Impish abra with me
I cant beat Kiawe trial omg. I have to wait for rockruff to evolve
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/25b5ab30a4922187cc83b977c5a3855b70b832c8dabb5ef89fe0b54de90785b6.png
Are you f**king serious?
What controversy?
EA ruined Battlefront II despite creating this enormous hype around it in the months leading up to release
Just through money stuff or glitches etc too?
I believe it has to do with the countless microtransactions the game has and how it’s pretty much just a pay-to-win game. I’m not sure
I thought they were meant to have gotten rid of them but maybe that was something else.
No they merely decreased the in-game price of the ”legends” (famous SW characters you can purchase in the in-game store with credits you have to buy with irl money) & actually lowered RNG by 33% i think. Story mode is pretty short too i believe (like 5 or 6 levels)
Ugh, I miss the days when everything was in the game when you bought it and that was that.
Though the grueling process of hatching eggs for the IV checker I found the pick of the litter https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/dc9aa759cac7278daa563ead6eb83adce03109c78664e5149e15d426d302b982.jpg
So who’s the one telling him he bred the wrong nature?
Nice. Why Fast Ball?
Eh *shrugs*
I just managed to miss an iron head and an overheat within a span of five turns
How it never misses
Snow cloak
Bastards! Reminds me when I tried to flamethrower a Glaceon and it missed
I would’ve lost but the fool roosted too many times instead of finishing Seismitoad off letting me Drain Punch
It was a pilloswine and the damn thing avoided both
Well all I need left is
My team of nature dittos and 9 everstones
Syncronizers
False Swiper
Skill Swapper
Frisker
And maybe a flashier Egg Nanny either a Magcargo or Camerupt
Magcargo
I like the idea of Camerupt holding egg cases on her humps
But Magcargo is the hot springs mascot, it can heat them with gloopiness. http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m16542ZOwa1qd87hlo1_500.gif
Volcarona
Yich
The only egg hatcher anyone should use
Damn I tried to fight Hala, but I’m going to need more might
My team was
Furball who evolved into Torracat lvl.18
Lola the Buneary lvl.16
And Dusty the Rockruff lvl.16
Lola and Dusty got taken out in one hit each by Machop and Furball beat Machop and Makuhita, but didn’t stand a chance versus Crabrawler.
I think I’ll train the team a bit more than go back to it
Quite the fighting weakness boyo
Perhaps a Slowpoke can take some hits
Hmm maybe I did add a temporary Mime Jr. to help as well
hawlucha
Ok, my phone’s feeling hot for some reason, I just turned it off and it hasn’t gone away
I say give it a few mins you probably used it too much a it needs a cool down
Well, it was on most of the period when it was updating Dokkan, so maybe
Put it in front of a fan or put it in the fridge for a few minutes
If you can just blow on it and wave it around
Lunge is 100% top 5 most broken and underutilized pokemon moves
How so? Better than Leech Life on Araquanid?
As of now? It depends on the set
This maybe true, but I have one move that is top 5 most Broken early game moves
Headbutt, has higher attack power than most moves at this level and flinch
That’s true that’s true
Would Storkarnage be a good name for my Dark/Flying Stork Regional Bird?
I like it.
A bit long, sounds very midstage
Talonflame though.
Hmmmmm
Maybe short it up to Storknage?
(And I actually really like the name of the Midstage of this line, ”Alkatross”)
Alkatross?
The mon’s based on criminals, it’s Alkatraz + Albatross
But isn’t it a stork?
It’s a Seagull to an Albatross to a Stork. Changing species it’s based on is common for Regional Birds.
Hmmm….. okay
Sooo… do you think Storknage sounds better than Storkarnage?
Ehhhh not really
You don’t NEED to use the word stork in its name
I kinda want to make what it is clearer and the two other stages in the lines have their species name in their names too, so I’m not sure… I’ll think about it
I think it’s hindering it a bit
How about Storkrush, Storkicide, Storkill?
I thought about Storkill and I don’t really like the way it sounds, Storkicide doesn’t do it for me, but Storkrush is pretty good. Thanks for the suggestions!

This is what happens yo
YOU HAVEN’T SAVED IN AWHILE, WANNA DO IT NOW??
What?
Rotomdex is annoying.
…what?…
What Govnah said was what Rotomdex says.
That wazzz a great photo, kiddo! It makes me so happy, Im gonna start up the Roto Loto!
I actually never found Rotom Dex annoying
It seems like your team could do with some healing! Do you want to check your Bag? You might have some healing itemzzz!
After hearing it in the show, it stopped being annoying
lemme guess, you played for about two minutes and he said it?
Youre a lucky one, buddy! Such a big city, and youre still the only one with a Rotom Dex! Zzrt!
Hey remember my regional Bug, the Peacock Spider well its got a name now
Hylluweb
Hypnosis, Hallucinate, Illusion and Web all roles into one menacing Bug/Psychic type
I was hoping for Tarantucock but oh well ;P No but really is this the first stage name?
No this is the final stage name, but I don’t have first or second stages yet
I had a thought kaleidicoon could work, but sounded a little long
Head-canon time. My first time so please pardon how bad it is. Pearl the Trumpbeak had journeyed with Astolfo the Primarina and her trainer for a while-simply enjoying the time that she has been with them. At Paniola ranch she sees a wild Pikipek who always gets into trouble. At first she thinks that Pikipek is quite troublesome, but when her trainer and her were about to be run over by Tauros, that Pikipek jumps in to save them from a stampede of Tauros, evolving into a Trunpbeak herself. Despite the times that Pearl has spent with her trainer, she felt the need to help this newly evolved Trumpbeak. So the trainer and her decided it was best for them to part ways and continue their own journey.
(This head-canon was made in order to give a story to my decision to switch out Punk the Glaceon for Pearl).
Now for the Trainer’s side of the story. A newly hatched Eevee was just stumbling along and started following a Rogue Alola-Vulpix, when the Vulpix was suprised when the Eevee bumped into it and accidentally attacked a Tauros at Paniola Ranch. Thus, a stampede ensued and the Trainer was caught in the mess (resolved in Pearl’s departure story). Afterwards the Alola Vulpix walked off leaving behind a fragment of an Icy Rock from Mount Lanakila. After taking it, the Day-care has asked the trainer to take care of the Eevee-which he decided to do so.
(A story of departures and greetings).
It has been 12:19 of gameplay and I am just about to tackle the second trial. I ended up getting overlevelled so I hope it doesn’t make the trial too easy for me.
Astolfo the Brionne Lv. 25
Punk the Glaceon Lv. 23
I won’t be getting a 3rd Pokemon until after the the 3rd Trial, so hopefully this will tide me through. I am probably going to avoid wild encounters now to make sure that my level doesn’t get too high.
It’s a Water trial so you should have a challenge even if you are over-leveled.
I just want Govnah Dex to be quiet during my trial, is that too much to ask?
YOU HAVEN’T SAVED IN AWHILE, WANNA DO IT NOW?????????
If it were not for your new features you would be in the bottom of Brooklet hill by now.
I personally like him
The 2nd Trial was way too hard. Both of my Pokémon were easily 4 levels over it but they barely put a dent on the Totem. I nearly thought I was going to lose.
Favorite new themes in USUM? Mine probably the wild battle remix & Warp Ride
I have so many I like it’s hard to choooooose
Ultra Jungle
I like the Mewtwo theme too, bit of nostalgia with a modern twist 🙂
that was from X/Y but its still great 😀
Oh i never got mewtwo in X/Y
Team Rainbow Rocket Theme, Ultra Warping Theme (I decided I’ll just call it that), and Cyrus’s Theme
The Beach themes are awesome 🙂
anyone member

Heh (These are from Persona 4 The Golden Animation)
I hope you guys are beary prebeared for horrible bear puns.
Ok, I’ll stop after this, I swear

In the middle of the 3rd Trial. The trial is difficult if you are not apart paying attention.
Punk the Glaceon Lv. 27
Astolfo the Brionne Lv. 26
And guests have arrived at my house. Guess I will have to put it on hold.
I can’t continue either, my brother is hogging the charger and my DS died
Pretty bored….I kinda feel like playing BOTW but I feel I should be painstaking focusing on USUM
Play BOTW if you really want to my dude. It’s pretty great
Ughhhh I still need to get all TMs, Totem Stickers breed my IAN Team and several other Pokemon, re-organize my legends box and start buying competitive items
Hmm you guys got a name for a typical common house spider that is a first stage?
Weblet
Ooo I like it
Weblet -> Kaleidicoon-> Hylluweb
Bug -> Bug/Psychic -> Bug/Psychic
Now I’ll need to make abilities, moves and other interesting aspects
Make sure the base stage ability is different from the others as you’ll want to reflect the type change.
Hmm I’m thinking something like Swarm for it, then some new ability for the others
Maybe consider Compound Eyes and Tinted Lens too.
Larveave
(Larva-Weave)
Anyone have a Stakata? I need to trade. I’ll give you a Blacephon in return
What ball for Yanmega?
Net
Depends, Shiny or Normal
Shiny Beast or quick
Normal, Nest
I kinda find it terifying that my phone can see which pictures have my cats on them without me knowing about that
Take a picture of Incineroar and see if your phone recognizes it as one of your cats.
I think the phone would shutdown. I think it would die instead of remembering something that horrifying
I mean he’s typed the word Decidueye before so it’s obvious his phone can survive horrifying experiences
There’s a ghost of a chance you’re right about that. Don’t be a grasshole
I’m on fire with my dark af shade
They ask water you doing? I say being fairy shady
AAAARGH
My brother has zero consideration towards anyone around him, he tears apart the basement to make room for his VR sensors, and moves my desk with amy delicate and fragile gaming mouse (which is extremely old) without my permission and it’s all gnarled, and on top of that he stunk up the place with pot smoke and incense
and I actually believed his bull promise to put it back together
Wow I feel stupid, for a second I thought I found a Shiny Wingull just to realize I was wrong
Sometimes I think ‘mon momentarily flash their shiny colours before returning to normal, happens to me with eggs.
I broke my record! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/fc72022873adfba0f4173e28e3abc4e67763c802692f3de47f86bc04808d22f3.jpg
Ur the highest rn in the jungle by 100 points.
https://youtu.be/6FgrR4li2tc
I’d be high if I literally didn’t get dicked by a triple shock thingy
I was on fire I would’ve been longer but the….shocker or whatever we call it ricocheted me into a lame-o ringless portal
I’m callin em bangarangs now
Well I was able to get 5 minutes to myself before we left for food. Punk the Glaceon did well against two Fire types, bringing the Totem down to half health before fainting on the third turn of combat. Allowing for Astolfo the Brionne to sweep it up by defeating the Ally Pokémon and the Totem Pokémon respectively. So far I am quite happy with the improvements made on the Trials. Also I am enjoying these games a lot more now that I know that there are worse things to do now than playing games that are a little bit too similar to SM: entertaining guests.
So when do you think it’s safe to discuss Ultra Wormhole environments?
To be fair they’re just corridors
Outside of the actual UB ones sure
I’d say give it at least another half a week. That way people that aren’t blazing through can get there.
I’d spoiler Guzzlord’s maybe for a bit more time but to be honest we saw every other ultra beast world in trailers so I’d just discuss them
just use spoiler tags
Id say wait a week
Hey guys! Don’t Stakataka and Blacephalon have the coolest Ultra Spaces?!
*angry screaming*
Yeah I don’t understand why they didnt make ultra spaces for them…
*triggered*
Grrr Hala is really pissing me off
I added Mime Jr. and Orocorio and they do nothing
Furball sits and Fire Fangs the Machop and Makuhita, but Crabrawler just sits and punches me and even once I heal just puts me in a worse spot because it lowers my health even farther
Both are kinda bad but at least the first one evolves
Oricorio should murder Hala lol it gets air Cutter super early
Not using the Exp. Share and since I already despise Pom-Pom I really don’t want to train it
What level does it learn it again though?
Every time I remember Xurk is not grass/electric I desire death a little more
It really should be, too many pure Electrics.
???Why would it need to be Grass?
Because it has tree in its name
A tree of circuits, it has nothing that resembles actual plant life?
It has the word tree in it
Learns grass moves
Has very tree like behavior
I’m not getting this one. Like it reminds me more of live wires more than some grass type. Plus, I don’t want it to have even more weaknesses. At least it gets some coverage unlike other electric mons
Well by grass moves you mean
Ingrain and Powerwhip (which makes since because it absorbs energy from the ground and it can just lash with its arms)
TMs don’t count since they just don’t
So I have an idea for a new Pokémon. Can’t draw sadly but I will provide a picture of the animal it can be based on? Has anyone ever heard of the star spider? I recently found one outside my house and I feel it has a lot of potential as a cool Pokémon. Maybe a rock/bug type where it’s a star that fell from the sky? That or bug/psychic or bug/fairy. Note I got the picture off google after I typed in the spiders description lol https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/aa15a52aaaba651e4ba07fba78570039bbedb5846f3f6723f6def98dbcdba5ea.jpg
We still dont have a bug/psychic mon even though Butterfree exists smh
I didn’t even realize we haven’t had that type combo. Very strange.
Its high up my list for gen 8 but knowing my luck & GF’s incompetence in distributing typings it will probably never happen
I want it now that I know it hasn’t happened lol the main thing I want is a freaking dolphin Pokémon. 7 gens in and still no dolphin not even in the region based on Hawaii lol
Tapu Fini is technically a dolphin
It’s a Marlin/Swordfish.
I want an actual dolphin Pokémon though. A non legend that you can find surfing on routes. Maybe a two stage that becomes water/psychic type or something
After extensive study in each of the ultra sun wormholes I’ve compiled some interesting notes with each of the environments
Nihilego: The Ultra Deep Sea is composed of semi dark deep subterranean pockets of mineral laced gaves, Nihilego wander eerily like ghosts as they flutter about, they seem benevolent towards one another but one has to ask if they only pick up on thoughts and emotions of other people and Pokemon as they only engage you when close enough
Buzzwole: The Ultra Jungle’s humid tropical atmosphere might suggest be highly enriched with oxygen, large towering plantlife (or this could just be undisturbed growth for countless eons) and dense vegetation, interestingly enough Buzzwole appear to thrive in the mouth of the large volcano which could mean they thrive in intense heat or the cone like structure is idea for nesting
Xurkitree: The Ultra Plant is very bizarre, a mostly mineral world always brewing with lighting bolts possibly from the fluctuation of electrical charges in the ground and the from the sky, interestingly enough towering structures that resemble Xurkitree can be seen in the distance, perhaps the variety of Xurkitree we are familiar with are either juvenile or dwarf species, perhaps some just stay rooted in the ground and spend their life feasting on energy and growing
Kartana: The Ultra Forest harbors a much more baffling lifeform than the Kartana, actual humanoids, each capable of speech and the use of pokeballs, each equipped with their own Kartana which is assumed to be extremely important to their culture which swordplay and honing their slices is very important, this forest is covered with plants that highly resemble Kartana limbs which could suggest they are born from the trees
Guzzlord: The Ultra Ruins is by far the most disturbing, wreckage and a toxic atmosphere, this metropolitan planet left for dead with only handfuls of survivors, a lone survivor claims Guzzlord have long inhabited this planet far before other intelligent life, these “humans” had modern comforts and advances in technology perhaps they have used Guzzlord as their personal waste management systems or they had a population boom which threatened the humans, but now they wallow in junk devouring what they can get as their numbers diminish
Guzzlord’s space genuinely gave me some chills
I’m honestly obsessed with it, I want to learn more about it
I love you rn for this
:3
The humans in Kartana’s ultra space are just humans from another world, they’re not a new species or anything and physically identical to our worlds humans. They also don’t use Poké Balls, their Kartana just appear in front of them hinting they don’t have Poké Balls.
You forgot to mention the most interesting part of Guzzlord’s world. It’s a parallel Alola
I noticed that in the battle at Melemele meadow Hau’s Rowlet also isn’t in a ball it just slides out
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/2a7af6a0e87d808a5f7e11bf8e16eff828e33055697967065c97b8d7ffbcc6e4.jpg
Best Fire/Rock. Without question. Yes I am that person.
I’d prefer it kept the silvery grey of Shiny Slugma but I like the shell. Nice find btw.
I just want a shiny from each portal
Stunfisk
Drapion (granted isn’t that good anymore should’ve been bright crimson)
Sigilyph
Hippowdon
I got a shiny Drapion earlier today
I know, all I got is the stupidest one of them all Audino

Why am I getting the ones I hate
You could always offer them as trades to other people who would want them…people who are fond of Fairy types.
SWAGOLD

good luck 🙂
I was close 6.2k
Added for ya to the contest upon request, see below~
Sh! T mythical lol
Name: Chacka (Chacki, a trinket without much use, and Ka, a part of the spirit in Egyptian mythology that could remain attached to the statue of a person)
Classification: The Porcelain Pokémon
Type: Ghost/Ground
Ability: Sculpter
Appearance: A humanoid made out of white and blue porcelain, it’s beautifully crafted with red light behind its empty eyes.
Dex entries:
A vain woman asked a witch to make her beautiful forever. She later learnt that porcelain could last for a very long time.
It is believed that looking into its eye sockets without a strong will causes you to become this Pokémon’s personal puppet.
*Thus ability causes all of the Pokémon’s creations (Screens, terrains, weathers) to last a bit longer.
BOOYAH https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/bbbadedb1ca2e2bbd9230ec0ea554db15e11056d24bc85e09b086894658c2f51.jpg
Mine has Sniper & adamant nature (forgot to bring an Abra)
Nice, good you got one you like.
Daaaaang everyone finding shinies like crazy. Haven’t seen this much shiny pics since xy and I don’t think you guys have shiny charm. With my handy shiny charm before kiawe trial I’m gonna be hunting for the big guns.
Organizing bank for a future live dex right now. It’s really weird seeing what Pokemon I actually don’t have .0.
I thought the same thing when I made a live dex in X/Y!
I also regret not doing the event legendaries b/c I don’t have Genesect, Meloetta, Volcanion, etc.
I think i just need Volcanion
I have all the others through… erm…questionable means…
Same! It’s very intimidating. I think my biggest problem, I tell myself I need a legend for competitive and one for living Dex, but lets be real. Competitive battling probably won’t be happening here any time soon
I have a sort living Dex. Well not anymore I guess. I need the new UBs and the mythical, but asnoff SM I have a sort of living Dex. I call it a “sort of living Dex” because some of the Pokemon are part of my past teams. Some day I’ll get extra Pokemon to fill the spots, but for now it is what it is. In any event I essentially have a living Dex. Just no all together
Im leaving out all of my team members because those hold sentimental value. I’d rather find new ones than have to find all of those pokemon again
Ok, why is Lysandre’s Xerneas actually unstoppable with Geomancy?
This is the villain boss battle we wanted back in XY.
Ahhhhh! Spoiler TAGS!!!!!!!
(Did your job for you Kurusu).
I fixed it
No, you are fine. He didn’t tell me to spoiler tag my comment as it kind of reveals what you are saying. So I told my self to spoiler tag my own comment as Kurusu wasn’t doing it. Refresh if you don’t see my new tagged text.
Ahhhhh! Spoiler TAGS!!!!!!!
Can I just say how much I hate Nintendo’s account system? Why in the world did they think it was ok to make two separate accounts that need 2 separate passwords when it make so much more sense to just do one single account? I hate this so much. I had to reset both passwords to make them both the same. I just hate that I had to go through the hassle of figuring out passwords and getting emails
Huh? It works as one account for me.
What the hell is the difference between the regular Nintendo account and the Nintendo ID? They basically have two different accounts and it’s dumb. They shouldn’t even offer the option to be able to log into two different things
I TOTALLY FORGOT THAT PROBOPASS WAS A GEN 4 MON AND NOW I HAVE TO REORGANIZE MY GEN 3 BOXES NOOO
I’d just put it in evolutionary line.
Im organizing it by dex number though. I’ll go back and change the box names later I guess.
I just wanna move on to Gen 5 now
Hm, I think either works. Are you using the green shift tool? I had issues organising my Safari Ball collection by ‘dex number.
Yep
HHHHHHAAAAAAHHHAAAAAAAAA GOOOOOOORN
So I was playing Gorn on Virv and I was freaking slaughtering with a flail
Should I catch Necrozma in a Master Ball?
Nope, it’s easy asf to catch and imo doesn’t match its aesthetic
Dusk Maybe then?
Luxury
Oh wait, Nvm I can’t catch it yet
If you were a Pokémon professor, what Pokémon would you give out? They must have the same amount of stages, be around the same power, and have the same number of evos.
Example:
Florges
Aggron
Machamp
*they also must form a type triangle
You mean:
Flabebe
Aaron
Machop
Ralts, Sandile, Budew.
Feels weird giving one that has two different evos and one that definitely needs a stone.
Shinx, Rhyhorn and Lotad
Arrrnnnnnnnnnargg the real world I NEED TO GO BACK TO THE VIRTUAL WORLD, REALITY IS WARPING BUY GOLD BRAGRASSHHHHHHHH
Well this is why you don’t play VR for a hour straight

WE ARE NOT PLAYING GAMES ? :]

PART 2 ?
Both squirtle and totodile have really good second stages!
Oh yes these two are probably my all time fav. water starters :]
I’m kind of torn on Blastoise. I love it, but it’s also such a strange change compared to the first two stages. It’s like the Toucannon of Gen 1 lol. Love it, but it’s odd at the same time.
That’s Pokemon evolution for you!
Although I’ve never noticed that with Blastoise. I can see quite a drastic change but maybe that’s intentional in the design process?
I love the cry/expression both have in the anime!
Think I’ll gather most of the new ‘mon in the ‘dex in gen 6 since there are a fair amount of high level evolvers and I can just use Blissey bases. I’ll try to prepare for an early shiny charm when I get the game.
Yeah, ORAS was lovely for completely the a living dex. That’s how I did it. Also why I love those games
Yeah blissey bases are just fantastic and so convenient. Finally a reason to like blissey :]
Whelp Kiawe’s trial was much easier than I thought it’d be. I didn’t think I was going in over leveled, but I think I ended up being so with all my mons at lvl 26. Oh well his trial was never really the hardest to begin with. Altho Salazzle in SM was prolly a trickier Pokemon to take on than the new Totem
I actually found Alolan Marowak rather challenging. My Gyarados ended up doing all the work.
I had my Araquanid take it on. It’s got Bubblebeam, Infestation, Aqua ring, and Bugbite in it’s moveset so Marowak wasn’t really much of a problem. Getting poisoned by Salazzle was annoying, but between Aqua ring and a couple potions it really wasn’t much of a problem. Again I was pretty over leveled as well. Didn’t mean to be, but that’s kind of how it turned out.
Oh, nice. Yeah, all I had to take on it were Larvitar (who was OHKO’d by brick break), Charjabug (Who got in an electroweb to slow them down before fainting), Togetic (who put up a really good fight despite being weak to Salazzle. I had it use future sight on Salazzle and Yawn on Marowak. That really helped. Then it fainted after I got those in.) And then Gyarados and Snorlax were the last in my party as Litwick fainted taking out the pokemon before the Totem appeared.
Cool. That’s an interesting team. I like it a lot. What were their levels?
I think 23 & 24, so a few over the totem
Hmmm interesting. I had trouble with Lana’s Totem and I was only a couple levels above that. Maybe that extra level or two on top of being slightly higher than the opponent really makes the difference.
The fire trial was really easy because I had chosen Popplio (again), honestly either since Water + Fairy as a combo is pretty Op or the fact i overleveled it and was struggling not to get it over the max level, I was able to one-shot the Totem with a Z-Move.
Yeah my Araquanid made pretty quick work of the trial. Altho I used my Lycanroc and Sandile for the first couple of mons. Wanted to save the main star of the trial for the Totem
Ah, but for me personally the hardest trial was the grass one, as usual. Luckily I learned my lesson and had gotten a Salandit prior to battling so it was levelled up and ready, but I struggled to take down Lurantis.
i need a second poipole to finish my living dex, anyone wanna trade?
Good luck with that one friend. It’s a pretty hard sell
You never feel more alive slicing off virtual gladiator’s skullcaps off

Class :]
I hope in gen 8 there’s another volcano area. I’f love to be able to properly explore a volcano in the Pokemon world. I know we won’t get anything like BOTW, but it’d be pretty cool to go into a volcano in some way to hunt for Pokemon. If they continue using ride Pokemon (in some way anyway. they may change the name) I could see a ride Pokemon that would allow us to go in there. It would give us a change of clothes specific to the volcano so it makes sense as to why a person could go in there and not die immediately haha
Magcargo ride.
*Groudon ride
You’d only be able to walk around the big areas, if it is scaled properly on the Switch that is.
Ah.
Exactly. Something like that. Something that you could use to make sense of being able to traverse a volcano.

Im surprised you are so for this. You disagreed with my shinies and everything in gen 6, but here where the odds are super high now youre taking part in it. Im not mad just think its interesting.
I had issues with the ramifications of shinies
I devalued them if they weren’t legit and if they weren’t competitively viable
I just felt they weren’t worth as much if everyone could just pump em out by the box or couldn’t be used competitively
But my shinies were specifically competitively viable, more viable than these things. But you hate me, so you probably was just resenting everything I did just to spite me.

Hey, that’s also my first USUM shiny! 😀 I was just doing that portal-travelling method, and after a while (and mistaking Hippowdon’s female form as a shiny, twice), I got it! 😀
It was my first Shiny too
Hey everyone, I’m new here and i just joined :). Although i had this Disquis account for a while I recently decided to finally confirm it and join! Anyone else done with US/UM yet, by that i mean main-story + Episode RR?
Hi, Welcome to Pokejungle. I’m MenacingCascoon, and I lowered your attack two stages!
Thanks!
Soooo let’s go through some typical questions.
What’s your favorite region?
What’s your favorite Pokemon?
What’s your favorite type?
How long have you been lurking here and how mmuch do you know about us?
Are you a battler?
How many times have you farted in the last 18 seconds
Region: It’s a 3-way tie between Sinnoh, Kalos and Alola. Sinnoh mostly because of nostalgia and my favourite anime character/champion being there (Dawn and Cynthia), plus lots of the Pokemon just feel…..nostalgic and I don’t know, gives me that warm feeling. Kalos is because it’s my first region and I loved the French influence, and Alola because of its unique separation and different climates and cities.
Pokemon: As before, it’s a tie between Diancie, Primarina and Lunala. Diancie because it’s adorably cute and it’s pretty OP when you get it to max affection (it avoided three attacks in a row once), Primarina as it’s really majestic and honestly was one of the few final evos that was cuter than its start, and Lunala cuz I love purple and Lunala is so elegant, like Cresselia merged with Darkrai.
Type: Fairy!
Lurking: I’ve often looked around here, but I haven’t really decided on actually joining here until a few days ago. BY the comments, I can tell how some of you are and how warm and open you people are.
Battler: Not really. I really suck at battling, and buy tons of Revives + Potions as I don’t really put stats/types while making my team.
Ugh another Fairy user
Disgusting
Embrace the fairies Earthen
One of us
One of us
One of us
One of us…
Oh! another Fairy user!
Raaaadd!
Thanks! Although Lunala isn’t a Fairy, at least it has a Fairy-esque feel!
It is surprising the amount of fairy users here. Nobody will be able to top me. But I dropped my fairy userness to something greater.
Probably cuz Fairy is OP.
Heeeyyy fam! Havent done Episode RR yet but I finished the main story last night
TY! 🙂
Welcome to the madness that is PokeJungle!!! I have not finished the story yet as you can see from my comments below, but I am enjoying the game quite a bit.
Thank you! And yeah I won’t spoil the story but by Poni Island everything will chance, those mysterious characters you keep crossing through will play a major part and surprisingly you won’t be catching the main legendary really soon!
Really looking forward to it. And thanks for no spoilers. We try as a community to be respectful of that kind of thing so it’s quite appreciated.
NP!
*Throws a battle axe at your head*
*shakes head* Classic Earthen lol
You know the rules, any newcomers who wishes to join must learn to deal with me
As you all know this is not a easy task
Noooooo it is not haha
*You look down and you notice me trying to light your shoes on fire with a lighter*
*I step on your hand* Yeah nice try bud…….*My other foot plants firmly into you face*
Foiled again
*Grabs your ankle and trips you*
*Catches self from fall and uses free leg to kick you in the head* I can go all night with this haha
*Rolls off and sits on your back and starts bending your leg*
This schtick reminds me of this
https://youtu.be/pfexEAExzhk
For the love god what did I just watch hahaha
Nothing is funnier then a good back and forth
You aren’t wrong there friend you aren’t wrong there
*Does not affect me*
The will is strong with this one
Oh, but of course. I am the ruler of the night!
Well you’re dealing with the King of the Earth
Welcome, your local Dedenne lover here 🙂
Just finished 4th trial, but I’m excited for what’s to come.
Thanks and yep, it’s certainly fun! I won’t spoil, but until about the third island or Poni, the trials are fairly similar, and then Poni’s pretty different.
Welcome to Pokejungle. Hopefully you’ll enjoy it here. I’ve only beaten the main story, but I’m getting close to beat the Rainbow Rocket Post Game
Thanks! And Episode RR is pretty long/difficult, although I have no idea if you can leave mid-way though, so try to finish it before your 3DS/2DS dies!
The only way I know of leaving midway is losing.
You’re allowed to save, although I have no idea if it literally saves right at that point or if it doesn’t work at all.
Hello and Welcome! I’m only on Akala. I’m so slow.
Thanks, and no it’s ok! Everyone goes fast. I go fast usually as I just get the feeling to finish the game and can’t really relax until it’s over with.
I guess part of my problem is that the plot tends to drag. I don’t really like the pacing. Then again, I only think Black and White have good pacing among pokemon games
Yeah, it starts out as some pretty begrudgingly slow intro to Alola, with the Kahunas, trials and such introduced, plus we have only 1 captain at the first island so we have barely anything exciting happening.
Pretty much. Still like them, just wished they had fixed more in USUM 😛
Yeah, such as the lag (although probably impossible as the 3DS is getting too weak to function those games), more Pokemon in Alola (instead of less than half), and such.
I’m also at Akala. Still on Route 4 lol
Honestly I don’t really have a favorite island in Alola. The routes/cities I like are few and far between so I’m kinda forcing myself along right now. There are parts they clearly put a lot of work into (like Malie City) and then there’s parts like the Wela Volcano park which takes up an enormous amount of space on the map, yet is really tiny and lame. I really just want to get to the post game.
Honestly same. The official artwork for Alola makes it look beautiful, but I don’t think the games really do it justice. I also feel the same way about Kalos though
Definitely! Though Alola does a better job at being interesting than Kalos, imo. There’s just a lot of wasted potential with Alola though. Diving, Wela Volcano, Golf Course, blush mountain, brooklet hill (less so, but I feel it could be way more explorable) the desert (seriously no one wants to explore a desert like this…)
I agree, and with Poni Island, it looks like it was hit by a severe drought, due to it being mostly brown and looking like a wasteland.
Yeah, it’s pretty big and there are a lot of explorable parts, but the post-game areas just aren’t enough for me. I want like new towns and even a whole new island. It’s too barren to be infinitely interesting
Definitely, although it’s nice that Lusamine is shown to be back to “normal” and at least much mor kinder, as well Aether being actually good instead of its secret evil self, I wish there’d have been some sort of hidden island where you can also find Mohn, the Pelago and the Lillie family unite with him.
Yeah! It sucks he’s not included in the story because he basically abandoned his children with an insane person to raise them…he’s kind of a super shitty person
I agree, plus, I don’t remember quite if it was this clearly mentioned, but in the climax and shortly after/before battling Lusamine, she mentions about Mohn, or at least Lillie/Gladion do, and how he was separated by the portal and Lusamine is trying hard to get him back.
Maybe he lost his memory then..?
Hey Luna welcome to the Jungle!!
Like Ultron I’m still on Akala island :]
Thanks and nice! Unfortunately Akala isn’t too good different, although if you got to the Grass trial at least, you’ll see some differences.
Ohh well its probably my fav island in Alola. I liked the Pikachu garden place, so cute and a sign for things to come on gen switch perhaps :]
Same, Pikachu Garden is cute and a great place to get not only new clothes and the Z-Crystal but alo to befriend many new Pikapals!

Thanks!
Uhhhhh guys am I in reality….I keep thinking I can pick things up with my remote and every time I close my eyes I see ultra space
Are the Tapus supposed to be easy to be caught in Pokemon USUM? I caught both Lele and Fini with quick balls on the first try. Does the Pokemon’s level you’re using affect it or is it just chance?
Topic: What are some Pokemon that you think have strangely drastic evolutions and do you like them?
-Wartortle to Blastoise: It’s weird. A whispy turtle with a sick tail turns into a mobile army tank? I like it, but compared to Charizard and Venusaur, which feel more natural, it’s almost like they couldn’t think of a turtle evolution that was cool enough so they gave it cannons.
-Dragonair to Dragonite: One of the most classic pokemon, yet I can’t help but feel let down by it. I love the serpentine appearances of Dratini and Dragonair, but then
BarneyDragonite just kind of ruins the party.-Trumbeak to Toucannon: Okay, Trumbeak is ugly and Toucannon is cool. The skip in logic from woodpecker to Toucan is odd. I feel that they were designed by two different people. Toucannon is pretty simply a Toucan, but there are plenty of pokemon that are rather similar to their real-life counterparts. It just needed to be Steel/Flying :I
-Frogadier to Greninja: Oh, boy…I could talk about this all day. Greninja…sucks, imo. Frogadier follows on from Froakie with the smooth frog body and bubbly scarf. But then drunk uncle Greninja storms in with a tongue scarf and angular/polygonal head and is just off. I honestly hate it. Fan art is better. I may dislike Chesnaught and Delphox as well, but you really can’t slight them because they actually look like their prevos.
-Torracat to Incineroar: So I’m convinced that with starters they design the first and last stages first and then try to fill in the dots with the middle stages. Sometimes, they’re successful…others times…not so much. This isn’t the worst one, but Incineroar’s under armor gray chest that comes out of nowhere, not to mention bipedal stature (which isn’t surprising considering previous fire starters) look off. If you looked at Litten and Torracat you’d think it’d evolve into an intimidating tiger that stalks the jungle, not a wrestling creature. Which brings me to the wrestling aspect. It’s so weird. Usually something specific like that would be established very early on in an evolution stage. But this only really takes form with Incineroar. Even after all the hate I threw on Greninja, I can at least say the ninja aspect is present in all of their designs. But I can’t say the same here. Again, probably designed Incineroar first and worked backwards.
Carvahna to Sharpedo: These are two really cool pokemon that conceptually and design wise have no link. One is based on a savage river fish and the other is an ocean-dwelling apex predator combined with a torpedo/rocket.
Remoraid to Octillery: How could I not mention this one? Really the only link here is remoraid (gun) —> Octillery (Bazooka-type weapon). But couldn’t they have just made remoraid a gun-based baby octopus or some other type of gun thing? That said, still like Octillery a lot. I used one a long time ago in Gen 4 and it was pretty good in-game.
There are probably more I’m neglecting to mention, but this is all I’ve got right now.
Popplio – Brionne. Popplio straight up ditches his clowning around and becomes a pop star.
Cosmoem-Solgaleo – Solgaleo has barely if not any of that blue-dark purple nebula stuff so making it go from a cocoon looking like Lunala to a metal Pyroar was pretty drastic.
Oh, those are good ones. Definitely agree with that. It really does seem cosmog and Cosmoem were designed to evolve into Lunala
Yeah, although Cosmoem has the rings Solgaleo also has, it could’ve been a bit more neutral along with Cosmog to make both evolutionary forms sensible.
True. Maybe like a tail part since Lunala even has a tail-like protrusion
Oh, yeah defiantly. Although it’d have to be a stub as Cosmoem would need to be compressed and dense as heck.
BTW, what are everyone’s current teams? Here’s the one i had up until Pokemon league (I went for my lvl. 100 Pokemon from S/M afterwards for easier battling):
Lvl. 69 Primarina – Aqua
Lvl. 63 Magnezone – Pickle
Lvl. 61 Salazzle – Allie
Lvl 61 Zororak – Ninja
Lvl 61 Vikavolt – Tick
Lvl 60 Malamar – Squilvia
All but Salazzle were from Melemele Island, and I kept them and just used them only.
67 Incineroar
66 Lycanroc D
77 Kommo-o
65 Crabominable
66 Mudsdale
67 Golisopod
Nice, all G7 Pokemon! Although I haven’t really gotten as many G7 Pokemon here, it was mostly because I wanted to have an advantage. I knew that the final trial would be Mina, the Fairy, so I went for a Steel type, plus a Fire-Poison.
Lv. 60 Serperior – Lucius
Lv. 59 Gardevoir – Kumatora
Lv. 62 Feraligatr – Riptide
Lv. 61 Noivern – Marceline
Lv. 59 Lopunny – Cotton
Lv. 62 Salazzle – Suzy
Using a team of my all stars :0 Poor Noivern hasn’t done much though :/
Oh nice! Looks like you got rid of your Alolan starter.
It was a tough choice between Primarina and Feraligatr. While Primarina is my second favorite pokemon, Feraligatr has always been an amazing team member each time I’ve used it
I understand, it’s like my team, after the Pokemon league, it was tough, but i decided for my Koko, christmas Bruxish, Primarina, Diancie, Porygon-Z and someone else, but I forgot. The reasons hy is that I realized EP. RR was going to be difficult so I just thought “instead of suffering myself, let’s just quickly breeze through!”. Good thing I did it as it was worth it.
Just finished Akala Grand Trial
Pokedex 402/402 (I love how early I finished the dex soo I wont stop talking about it :p)
Zakai: 7/18 Z crystals
Zuko (Torracat)- 28
Allure (Shiny Fomantis)- 28
Verde (Lycanroc Dusk)- 28
Hindenburg (Drifblim)- 28
Dothraki (Bagon)- 28
Messi (Passimian)- 24
“Messi”
I love this
Thanks! I love that nickname and Hindenburg, especially since its ghost type.. hahaha… too dark?
Oh nice! Funny enough my Brionne was at a level 35 at the Grand Trial (Olivia I think) which was then a Primarina, and I had to make sure I defeated her before it evolved and then started to not listen to me.
Just finished Lana’s trial:
Time – 22:44 with 6 Z-Crystals
Torracat – Lv. 31
Lycanroc (Dusk) – Lv. 30
Araquanid – Lv. 28
Fomantis – Lv. 27
Stufful – Lv. 26
Holy crap. Everyone is so overleveled (Im not mad I had to be too to beat Kiawe’s trial)
I mostly focused on Popplio/Brionne/Primarina because honestly as long as I had the leader of the pack strong and ahead, the others would be safe and I’d also have a backup plan if there was a difficult Pokemon to take on.
CRAZY THEORY TIME!!!!! So I’ve been thinking about this since last year. Nihilego’s world looked very familiar to me from the moment I saw it. It hit me not long ago that it’s reminiscent of Reflection Cave from XY. In the XY anime the mirrors in Reflection Cave end up sending Ash to an alternate world or reverse world. In SM/USUM we can travel back and forth between the regular world the main story takes place in and a reverse world where time is flipped. What if Reflection Cave is some how connected to Ultra Space and the alternate world Ash went to was the same reverse world that we can go to in Gen 7? Maybe the cave had some crazy thing happened that ended up having many of the crystals from Nihilego’s world pulled into the normal world and those mirrors are actually tiny Ultra Wormholes that open and close randomly. Thus why the cave is such a weird and fantastic looking area. END OF CRAZY THEORY
Perhaps, although we’ll never know as we only saw inside Kalos, and we’re at Alola, so confirmation is pretty hard to find.
I mean I’m prolly wrong. The best case scenario is that they just look similar because it was the same person or persons that designed both areas. XP
Yeah, plus, we saw in the anime the characters were different, whereas the reverse world of Alola has the exact characters and stuff, just opposite time of day.
True, but to be fair it’s not like they were gonna change very much for the reverse world in gen 7. That’d take a whole lot of work and the only real reason for the reverse world is to give you Cosmog and give you a way to choose what time of day in game it is. If they went more in depth with it we may have seen significant changes, but oh well
I agree, although the only thing the reverse is useful is of getting certain itms required in certain times as well as to get a new Cosmog, it really should’ve gotten more stuff to do in.
Psssh Post game in Pokemon? Surely you jest
Of course! Right after the League you are given a message saying “Thanks for playing, you have finished the game.” and are either brought right before the League or are denied from playing it ever again and losing your Pokemon forever and having all your progress be deleted. /s
Jynx or Malamar?(trying to decide for my UM team)
Malamar
Jynx for it is much less of a common pick
I might end up using both…
Malamar
Go for Malamar, a Dark-Psychic type is really helpful.
Malamar
never Jynx
Wow I did it I beat Kahuna Hala
My entire team except Torrcat took a dive (I will never get Lopunny it has lost so much) and I still came out with only 17 health left
But in heading to Akala
Furball the Torracat lvl.20
Lola the Buneary lvl.17
Dusty the Rockruff lvl.17
Plans to catch in the near future
Minty the Seel
Luna the Morelull
Goops the Goomy
When Playing a Pokemon Game for the first Time/Restart an old one, do you Try to Use pokemon you haven’t used before(bar starters) or do you have some you will always go for?
Generally pokemon I haven’t used
Always try to use new mons. While playing with certain Pokemon is fun if I use the same ones more than once it makes the initial journey with said Pokemon feel cheap. I’d rather have one story per team. Now if it was a different form such as regional or something then I’d make the exception, but that’s different I guess
Both!
I always like to mix things up and certain mons become more desirable over time but I still tend to use certain mons over like Feraligatr in Johto!
Feraligatr is a Starter, so It’s Exempt even if you always pick it
Oops my bad. Well yeah certain mons I’ll use repeatedly like Arcanine or a Dragonite but I do mix things up a lot.
Recently played AS and used diff mons like breloom for the first time :]
A bit of both, as I did with USUM. I went with Popplio, knowing as generally most trials I can do at least fairly well with it, with the exceptions of Molayne, Mina and the grass trial, as well with Salazzle for the grass trial and fairy as it has a great typing, whereas I go for other different Pokemon for more convenience and to give me an advantage on other Pokemon trainers/kahunas, like Magnezone and Malamar.
For the first time, I like to use Pokemon that are strictly from that generation.
Second time, completely new set.
In the first playthrough/first game in the generation I play with only Pokemon from that generation. In subsequent playthroughs/third versions I play with whatever strikes my fancy.
So Mohn got a pallet swap eh? Ok that’s fine lol
Wait, what do you mean by pallet swap?
Like they changed the color of his scarf and pants.
Ah.
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/c05ab596139433bae27f0e8bfac32a7a65e7cb8ac4b80f5460bbc81d6fa55493.jpg
Trial 2 here we come.
Left Croconaw and Maku behind for this one.
I’m quite confident but I’ve heard this trial is quite challenging…
What trial you heading to?
Lanaaaaa! :]
Ah, the water trial. I don’t think the new Water Totem is as hard as the previous one, but be careful anyways, who knows if it has any tricks up its sleeves.
Your munchlax holding the soothe bell? Mine evolved way sooner than expected. Right before the fire trial lol
Haha yeah it is. Can’t wait till the blob evolves, it’s keeping me in the edge of my seat xD And lucky you!
Kinda wish mine had stuck around as Munchlax a bit longer lol, but I didn’t want to stop it if it was time haha
Imagine bouncing around with a Snorlax that early. I have no idea how long till my blob evolves haha
Prolly soon. I got mine at the beginning of Akala and evolved like 5 levels later. The only thing is that its movepool sucks right now, and it has egg moves haha
I wanna hug a Munchlax
It will eat you if you try 😛
No more Totodile?
Oh he’ll be back after this trial. Dratini and him are the 2 untouchable mons in my team.
And he’s a Croconaw now!!
Love Totodile so much. Croconaw is cool and so is Feralitgatr, but Totodile is the best
Fun(ny) Fact: After getting the 4 Tapus again, I now have:
4 Tapu Kokos
3 Tapu Leles
2 Tapu Finis
2 Tapu Bulus
🙂 I hope for shiny versions of Lele, Fini and Bulu too!
Aren’t the other Tapus shiny locked? Or am I crazy
They are.
There could be possible Mystery Gift events for them, like the shiny Tapu Koko one. I know they’re s-locked ATM but i hope for a day when they’re not!
And a Pikipek in a pear tree?
lol
Is Zeorora (the electric cat mythical Pokemon) obtainable in-game or is it not available yet?
Not available yet.
Ah, darn, so it’s the Marshadow of USUM.
I’m wondering why they didn’t go ahead and make it Electric Fighting since it seems up that alley.
Wait, is it just Electric?
According to Bulbapedia, yes.
Oh ok.
So, Teen Titans Go could be ending soon. If that’s true, thank God. This video covers it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-R7kUjKNBM
I actually like Teen Titans Go, but I definitely get why people are over it. It’s over aired and that flooded the time blocks a bit too much.
Hopefully if it does they can put good stuff like the previous TT show, Young Justice etc on.
Once thing I like about the pacing of gen 7 is that I feel like I got to spend a lot more time with the mid stage of my starter. Usually I feel like the mid stage is such an after thought and you’re so focused on getting the final it just flies by. In these games tho I feel like I had my Torracat (in Sun) and my now Dartrix (in Ultra Moon) for a decent amount of time. When I evolved my Torracat into Inciniroar it felt like the right time and it was not too long after getting to Ula’Ula. All that said it does cut down time with the first stages of the starters, but it’s nice change of pacing.
To commemorate my Grand Trial https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/3be0dee24a9703381dc0a4c0d856fe6fa97073c79a4f533f5dee260c2567419e.jpg
I like the colourful look! :]
Neat!

Anyone else always been Bugged by how Jolteon and Vaporeon have Volt and Water Absorb, but Flareon(and in general) doesn’t have a Specific Absorb Type ability?
Fire doesn’t have one so it gets as close to one as exists.
That’s part of What I’m Saying. Why isn’t there one for fire(and why is Flash Fire still wonky?)
Idk, Heat Absorb, Flare Absorb, Flame Absorb, it’s not hard to name.
It should have one called “Kindle/Kindling” or “Fire stoke”

Welp Flaffy got anihilated.
T shock did like 0.001%
And look how big it is.
Welp.
A minute later it hax’s my Dratini.
Welp pt 2.
Imagine:
John Williams scores a pokemon game. Don’t think about how it’s impossible. Just focus on the awesomeness that would ensue.
Well there’s my first defeat at a trial :O https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/92345d7fec4da505905fd40f59c7fe76bb46d7afbe56ed7dacd215af101dde0b.jpg
Which Trial was it? I only had time to do 3 so far.
Lana’s water trial! Dont worry I avenged my defeat :]
Yea, that was much more difficult than SM’s 2nd Trial. I think it has probably been the most difficult one for me so far.
I’m now sitting at level 19 in Pocket Camp with a max level tent and new amenity on the way, and I’m still not bored. Honestly, you folks should give it a shot if you haven’t already. Tomorrow’s Thanksgiving so I’m sure there will be some kind of event! Also, the fact that this progress could be made during normal work and school hours just feels amazing, since it really does feel like a true game. Now USUM calls my name…along with Splatoon 2, after that update trailer.
Jesus, level 19? I thought level 6 was high for it just having come out yesterday..
Nowhere close to that point, but without spoilers is is obvious when you’re about to get Poipole? Like if I do end up going for a shiny one of it will I know that I’ll need to save before it or is it the kind of thing you need to know in advance otherwise you are just thrown it and it’s not obvious?
I did not anticipate it, but I believe it gave you the option to turn it down and come back for it later. My memory is horrible, so I could be wrong, but I’m pretty sure I remember it happening that way. (Apologies if I am wrong!)
I have heard this too so I think you’re right. I’d save often anyway though.
Idk if you guys have seen this, but

He makes a lot of excellent points.
Also is is more or less a review of the series as whole through the lens of Omega Ruby. I would recommend this (maybe not all at once but chunks)
daaaaaaaaamn
guess I’ll be watching this for a while while working on my dex
so its been awhile, maybe its time for you to save?
Back in NC for Holiday!
I feel like Ash’s future Torracat won’t stay like that for long… It just looks too .. odd
Litten for a long time then speedy Evo to Incineroar like Charmander
Crap……I just realized something…….When you beat a Kangaskhan the baby turns around as it’s going into the falling back motion. IT’S BABY KNOWS YOU BEAT IT AND IS TRYING TO SEE IF IT’S ALRIGHT!!!!!!! I feel like a horrible person now………..,
Sahd :’3
So from browsing PokeEarth on Serebii(because Bulbapedia is still updating) it seems there was a good Rat and Mongoose Culling, but I don’t think they fixed the problem of pokemon only available in one Location.
If the next Pokemon games were plus and minus
And they had ultra versions
Could you technically call it Pokemon Plus Ultra
I like how Gamefreak literally did nothing to the Dream Park, making it one of the most useless locations in Alola. They could’ve put the fossil restoration man anywhere. Instead of making it a cool place, they chose to put time into making Pikachu Valley, an even more pointless locale with an even dumber trailer.
Should’ve had wild Fossil ‘mon there.
Exactly. And overworld sprites for them would’ve been nice. Maybe an Aeordactyl pokeride skin you can get in the post game? Or better yet, Aerodactyl soar pokeride?
Pokemon Switch wont have Rotom Dex because there is only one screen
10/10
Don’t jynx us with this talk. They could very well find a way to integrate some annoying Navi rip off again.
Voice acted rotom dex. The switch is the dex
Why you do dis??!
It is voiced by Benjamin Cumberbatch.
You mean Bandersnatch cumberdict..?
You know you would give anything for a Switch-Dex hybrid that reads you the daily periodical with the smooth Cumberbatch chords as you fall asleep.
Pengwings.
I think that is how it is spelled in Europe. Benedict Cumberbatch does no wrong.
Does anyone know which Pokemon Centre has Quick Balls?
lol i just looked this up
the pokemon center on a route on akala where the grass trial is
Pretty sure the one by lush jungle
Ah thanks, I found it earlier but thanks anyways!
So I believe I have just finished the story… now just to hunt down all the side quests and hidden bonuses (and catch ’em all)! Current team:
Lopunny 77
Banette 81
Noivern 80
Shiinotic 80
Houndoom 74
Dewgong 79
Lopunnyyyyyyy
also wow you’re kinda overleveled for just finishing the story
and by kinda I mean completely overleveled
like 20 levels over
I included post-game if you’re not counting that. Like reaching the Battle Tree.
ooohhh
Just when you think Lapis couldn’t get any worse, Raising the Barn happens :^)
Not even going to watch it
I dont need it. It’s goona kill me
She’s just kind of turned into a selfish coward
how do they f*ck up a character with so much potential
her arc seemed like it would be so good… uhgg
At least Peridot is getting some attention. Unfortunately they can’t seem to do both at the same time
I liked Peridot more here but Lapis OOOOH GOD
Wow, back to kindergarten was the PERFECT opportunity for our first real Peridot solo. Sigh…
Okay I have to say, the barn episode as bad as it did Lapis did Peridot decently
And the other one immediately was ,,,, eh
Honestly I liked the kindergarten one though
It was good but I felt so mixed on some part of it
Which?
Okay, the flower in Back to the Kindergarten is definitely a Silent Princess from BotW
https://i.imgur.com/pBciDU3.jpg
So I’ve done all the trails on Akala. Now I’m gonna train up all my Pokemon to level 30 and take on Olivia. that’ll prolly be a tomorrow thing tho as I’m VERY tired…….

I WAS CHAINING SLOWPOKES FOR A SLOWKING AND I LITERALLY FOUND A SHINY SLOWPOKE BEFORE A SLOWKING
WOW
I didn’t know you could get Slowking that way, anyway congratulations on the shiny.
its a low chance… apparently lower than getting a shiny -.-
https://www.serebii.net/pokearth/alola/kala'ebay.shtml
wtffff
Think I’d rather get the item and find someone to help trade it tbh.
Thats what I’m doing now I guess :0
Do you have the Kings Rock? I can help you if you want.
I don’t. Can you trade now?
Yeah but I don’t have a spare KR.
oh…. its ok!
Do you know where to get one?
nupe
Trainer School Principal post-game or battle tree.

JUST RANDOMLY FOUND A SHINY BAGON AT 10 MINUTES LATER
Nice one. I was hunting for a Lv 9 Salamence the other day for ages and no shiny Bagon (ended up catching a Lv 11 and giving up).
Just found my first shiny of Ultra Sun: a Quagsire from the Ultra Wormhole!!
Nice, congratulations https://zippy.gfycat.com/EquatorialRepentantHoneyeater.gif
Can anyone trade me so i can evolve my shiny slowpoke? I already have the kingsrock
I’m still here if you want my help.
yey
I’ll be online in a sec. I already have your FC
James, right?
Yeah
Yayyyy!!
Thanks fam!
NP, glad to be of help 🙂
I guess I’m a better shiny hunter than a legend hunter because I just found a shiny Stunfisk and still have not run into a legendary since Heatran (hours ago).
Shinies are so easy to find in this game I swear
I’m not complaining, but I’d kind of like to find a legend before I go to bed lol.
You wanna look for the ones with the big circles around it
I’m just really bad at the minigame. I’ve changed it to my preferred controls, but I still struggle to get to the farther holes.
Same. You really can’t miss the boosts
I agree, I found 2 shiny Swannas, 2 shiny Barbaracles, 1 shiny Nuzleaf and 1 other shiny, forgot what it was.
Happy thanksgiving from your favorite dex and always remember to save
YES
I WAS ABLE TO ORDER THE ZELDA 2DS ON BEST BUY FOR 30 BUCKS
I’M SO HAPPY FOR SOME REASON
Now back to the sad reality: no Thanksgiving event in Pocket Camp 🙁
So I just tried starting ultra sun. After soft resetting over an hour to get a good nature for litten I am so done right now. I think I will hold off playing until I give my nieces the games for Christmas so I can play along and help them when they need it. Will obviously pick litten in all likelihood. Idk may pick rowlet again since I know my oldest niece will pick litten and my youngest popplio. We shall see. Until then I think I will start Mario Odyssey! That said I seriously can’t wait for gen 8 on Switch lol hopefully we get skippable cutscenes in those games to make it more bearable for those of us who soft reset for our starter
Happy Thanksgiving fellow Jungle Denizens!
Well Ultra moon has finally answered a question I’ve had for a long time regarding Sudowoodo I’ve often wondered what the trees that Sudowoodo mimic actually look like and how well they copy them. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/c479f56380fd255cc4fe9336f2040f67749b727020fa1edd3b0fcc676aa2c250.jpg
I could use some suggestions for my Ultra Moon team. I’ve already decided to use Torterra & one of Kommo-o/Noivern but that leaves 4 spots open.
So, still a Modest nature for Kommo-o in usum?
Morning everyone! Did anyone else get multiple shinies (like more than 1 of the same shiny) from the Ultra Space travelling method? I found two shiny Swannas and two shiny Barbaracles with this.
https://youtu.be/mc0YvFoYgdc
Looks like Ash gets the z-power ring next week
Ugh so much power in possession of a happy go lucky boob
We need some team evolutions.
Happy Thanksgiving everybody!!!
Morning Buttholes
Today is one of the finest days for gluttony, and I have a feeling that today’s overcompensating SJWs will have a field day with the true meaning of thanksgiving
But other than that I’m gonna be breeding a ton of stuff today since I spent all night in ultra space
Defensive Golisopod Net Ball
a new Pangoro can’t decide Luxury or Ultra
Special wall Throh Timer
Cloyster Dive
Several Kommo-os Heavy
Anything else?
After that I need to buckle down and sniff out the last TMs and make a ton of cash,
Modest, naive or Rash for kommo-o in usum?
Modest for special rash for mixed
SECOND HATCHED SHINY IN A WEEK!!!!!! WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ME https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/adeb21dfb049e0af01e57d3686975d19e3747d790443c6c7ccebebd044f60c25.jpg
Oh come on, doesn’t matter, Shiny Kommo-o is an eyesore
Not gonna evolve it because of that
I tell ya Shiny Jangmo-o should be bone white with a maroon underbelly and it’s scale Red
Top 5 ugliest shiny lines D:
Hey guys is this a good score for a first time Mantine Surf?
Oops would help if I put the picture https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/37a266153bf238864731b007ec0fb1682a006d97c744dc324a66cdc09b24e6e9.jpg
You did better than me.
Very good!
On the normal course im at 23K atm
Lets compete against each other!
Roto Dex wouldn’t be as bad if you could increase its text speed. It’s also very frequent but it speaks sooo slow making it last forever
There! Took me 45 minutes of hunting Roggenrolas but now I have 10 everstones, one for each of my nature dittos and a spare
All I need to do is send them and my team of synchro Abras and then I can breed pretty much any Pokemon
Unpopular opinion but I just can’t seem to escape the soul rending sense of melancholy when I transfer Pokemon
I know we’re getting the same exact beloved Pokemon we all once used and loved but what of the world they came from, all the time we spent in there
My X copy has over 999:59 in game time and one simply doesn’t rack up that kind of milestone easily
Hell, are you getting sappy on me?
It may come as a shock to you but you realize I’m a extremely emotional person?
I always knew there was something wrong with you..
In all seriousness though, I f*cking love releasing those little bastards so I can replace them with better ones. Just wish it was easier to do so.
Any of you watching the Macy’s day Parade?
There doing a song from the new Spongebob musical rn… I have died a little inside after hearing the Spongebob actor mimic his voice
Another day, another dollar :]
or should I say another adventure in Alola!
Still not feeling too great but I plan to take it easy today, starting with my finishing Akala Island.
Good morning/day to you all!

It’s just not a big event
Holy Crap it happened at lvl.19!!!!! Despite all the loses we experienced, Lola has evolved! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/a207f438bfb09aac325f97ff658b1997ccd1fa61942c6b667ddda0a0cf67bbf9.jpg
My team now is
Furball lvl.21
Lola lvl.19
Dusty lvl.18
Oh to explain why Panolia Town background
We were fighting Hau when she evolved
Ok where do I go to surf in Seaward cave? None of the pools say they accessible to surf in
I HAVE MY ULTRA MOON TEAM ALL DECIDED:
Atlas the Torterra
Steve the Kommo-o
Buzzkill the Yanmega
Naja the Arbok
Megatron the Metagross
Pikaboo the Mimikyu
FeH.
Oh, you’re back
Who this
My name is in parentheses…
Oh I meant the guy you were talking to
Oh, it’s Detoxic
Oh I remember him!
Reading through my old files, who remembers this terrible rush job?
Old Bistre
A ruin, that ruined the life of many. Old Bistre was an attempt made by Sienna and Carbo to make a merchant city where the unified leader of Astra would rule, but the rest of Astra were not happy with this. Thus, a civil war broke out, and whilst Old Bistre was the bastion of the Sienna/Carbo allegiance, maintaining it cost the life of many men and ‘Mon. However, the Sienna Warlord at the time used the power of the Dread Crystal underneath the city to wipe out her opposition.
This killed many of her own men, and decimated the city’s structure. This awakened the Dread Guardian, who took to the skies and decimated the land, and is believed to of created the Pigment Pass itself by destroying a whole mountain before entering Sienna and destroying its verdant ecosystem single-handedly.
In order to stop the beast’s rage, the Sienna Warlord offered herself up to the God of Destruction. As her life energy was absorbed, the single tear she shed was believed to land on a withering sapling. It then grew and grew, cradling the Dread Crystal under its roots. This tree is so tall that the ever present storm clouds obscure it, and although it is now dead, it still towers as a reminder of the past. It’s believed the Dread Guardian is perched atop the tree, watching over all. The tree is where criminals are taken to be executed, believing that the released life energy will sate the God of Destruction above.
Well, I was right. The Battle Agency is a much worse Factory.
#1. You can only choose 1 out of 3 pokemon
#2. What’s the point of the other trainers there? You make all the decisions anyway. Just useless.
#3. It uses Streetpass. Seriously? Streetpass we have festival plaza with all those trainers, but still streetpass
#4. Only 1 Pokemon levels up! That’s the stupidest thing! So all the opponents Pokemon level up, but only YOUR pokemon level up. Your partner’s pokemon stay 50. Just incredible.
I’m sorry for being so negative, but I knew this was going to worse than Factory and it is.
Omg there’s a totem sticker underneath the interactable Sandygast on Hano Beach
Well I caught my fourth now, so my team update
-Furball the Torracat (Girl)
Lvl.22, Naughty Nature, Good Endurance
Ability: Blaze
Moves: Scratch, Lick, Fire Fang and Double Kick
Item: Fightium Z
-Lola the Lopunny (Girl)
Lvl.20, Mild Nature, Good Perseverance
Ability: Cute Charm
Moves: Pound, Foresight, Return and Quick Attack
Item: Normalium Z
-Dusty the Rockruff (Boy)
Lvl.20, Timid Nature, Quick to Flee
Ability: Own Tempo
Moves: Bite, Happy Hour, Rock Throw and Fire Fang
Item: None
And introducing
-Minty the Seel (Boy)
Lvl.16, Modest Nature, Good Endurance
Ability: Hydration
Moves: Icy Wind, Growl, Water Sport and Encore
Item: None
So what do you guys think of my team?
I like the names. What is the reasoning behind Seel?
Because it’s Ice type I thought Minty was a good name for it also how Mint is normally associated with winter, I thought it was a good fit
I see, I usually think of mint-flavored fun so the words fresh came to mind.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I am about to have a Thanksgiving meal with Lana, Kiawe, and Mallow. Hopefully the preparation of the meal and the meal itself will be quite different from last year.
My team as of now is:
Astolfo the Brionne Lv. 27
Drunk Ubear the Bewear Lv. 28
Punk the Glaceon Lv. 28
Ooo cool! I like Beware’s name a lot!
Got any other team members planned out yet?
Thanks. One of my friends actually recommended it while we were brainstorming. Punk the Glaceon was actually an in-game replacement so my team got changed a little bit. I’m going to add Salazzle (Totem), Flygon, and Mimikyu (Totem) to my in-game team and I don’t think that is going to change.
I feel like my pokemon are getting over leveled. I just cleared Lana’s trial and my team is around level 20. Maybe it’s because of all the exploring and extra battling/catching pokemon I do?
I was at ~Lv. 25-but I only had 2 Pokémon. I would recommend if you feel you are getting overlevelled to stop battling some of your wild encounters.
I battle all the trainers on every route (for completion’s sake). And I’m filling up my pokedex along the way, so I capture all possible pokemon in a given route, which gives more exp
I see. Yea not much to do about that. I guess make sure not to use Pokémon Refresh and you should be good. As I had 2 Pokémon at level 25 on the second trial-I battle all of the trainers for completion sake as well-and now I am on the 4th trial and you could refer to the post below for my Pokemon’s Levels.
3 things! First to all Americans Happy Thanksgiving!! Hope ya’ll are having a great day.
Second damn the anime is taking major strides in story progression is seems. Really makes you wonder if gen 8 is in fact next year. They’re kind of plowing through plot points and even tho they haven’t gone to Ula’Ula it seems like they’re jumping into some major things.
Third I’m about to challenge Olivia. all my mons are lvl 30. I’ve got
Dartrix
Midnight Lycanroc
Araquanid
Bewear
Krokorok
Alolan Sandshrew
Dusty, Rotom and I went out for a good time, Dusty and I just are acting silly, but Rotom got Dr*nk https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/8d6c412d72bd086d9635742ecada20c3c639fde81290b59e4792cfba61427884.jpg
Update on my shiny Poipole hunt: I’m up to 1395 srs! Managing to keep myself busy by watching movies and stuff on Netlfix. I think with dedication I can put in about 1100 soft resets a day! Hoping it doesn’t go over the original odds of 1/8192 because I really want to finish this game soon with this little guy on my team!
I won’t be doing it without the shiny charm. GL with it, shouldn’t take as long as that, I’ve seen alot of people get it really quickly and know I’ll never have that luck.
Yeah, I’m hoping i get it soon! I wish you luck for when you eventually go for it!
652!!! MY CHILD https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/af998527e7f1552dd182b6d79b3194f7fc02728d0fd762e8a1733a0b45cd28eb.jpg
Congrats! Such a good shiny! The gold works really well for it!
😀

Nice work buddy https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/054c36670c997c4c037ff638d6a83a8e1b63a6a9b3b973972b5b8fd77300ba42.jpg
😀 yaaaaasu
Oh to celebrate the Holidays I’ve decided to make a Cornacopia Pokémon
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/928fb548d4f9f0f3a08723b249b7e462d6bc6da3477006612ad928b36149a65a.jpg
But what type would fit it the most, maybe Grass type? I want it to reflect bountiful harvest of Thanksgiving and such
So think a Grass type could work
Grass/Ground dawg
Ok my only problem was it rivals with the first stage of my starter Womberry
Well I guess it’s not the worst problem
Do you get more than one of Blacephalon and Stakataka? If possible I’d like to get at least one normal of each, but also kind of want to shiny hunt for Stakataka. Not sure tho. Depends on how many they give. Like if it’s just 2 each then idk. I’ll need to trade something away to get Blacephalon, but would like to be able to not sacrifice too much just to get it. One of the reasons I really liked that they gave you essentially trading ammo by giving us multiple Kartana and Celesteela in sM. Not that we could get the UBs in shiny forms then, but it was nice to have enough rare mons to trade to get the things I needed.
I think it’s 2 of each.
Hmmm ok that’s what I was expecting, but just wanted to make sure. Part of me wants a normal form of each of the new UBs, but part of me also really wants to hunt for them in their shinies. Guess I’ll have to make the decision once I get there tho
Happy Thanksgiving, friends! I’m always thankful for PokeJungle because of all of its amazing people and the fact that everyone gets along…for the most part. We need more of that these days. This morning i was able to order a PS4 controller and 4 games for $100, which is insane! That includes Kingdom Hearts 1.5+2.5 and the Bioshock Collection for $35 total – absolutely insane. i hope you all have a chance to enjoy the day in whatever way you can!
Me i had to listen to my baby cousin scream her mouth off all through brunch and my mother is sick
and i had to do a bunch of agonizing updates to my main computer (which stresses me out if they don’t go smoothly)
and i’m breeding Panchams and Wimpods
Sorry to hear, it always sucks when people get sick around the holidays. And I hope to build a computer someday…but that may not be next year either.
mine is a dual monitor super compooter
yet the only thing i ever run is wow and low grade emulators
i really prefer the simplier things honestly
I respect that a lot, simplicity is always key. Since I’m a full-blown console guy it would be overkill to build a computer now, although it would be cool for VR (hopefully I’ll be doing that with my PS4 anyway). I’ve been using my first computer, a 2012 model Mac Mini, until today and now I’m just waiting for an updated model because I love mine so much.
I freaking love playing VR games
Especially my new calling Gorn
https://youtu.be/1K64_QAb_Bc
I finally can cut loose and fight like the berserker I truly am!
Little tip: like Zangief I too hate projectiles
Trusk wants to wish everyone a happy Thanksgiving! And he misses you all dearly
who is trusk?
He was an unregistered member (Rowlet avatar) I never knew what happened, but of what I recall he was a cool guy
Got banned for incredibly creepy comments regarding female Pokémon characters. Later was unbanned then banned again for harassing users and incredibly creepy comments regarding female Pokémon characters.
Why did I think it was someone else
I do remember him like that though, but I do admit if that’s why he got banned it was for good reason
We also had to ban him on our site for spamming and concern trolling.
Hmm how about this for a start up for my new Pokémon
Bountopia
The Bountiful Pokémon
Grass/Ground
Ability:???, Harvest
“Bountopia are rarely seen other than at large feasts and times of great famine, it stores seeds in its back throughout the year which grow into an abundance of food.”
The ??? is for a new exclusive ability for it
Cool!
I mean harvest
I have an idea of a Pomemon I’d like to exist.
Squidlord
The Narcissistic Pokemon
Waterr/Dark
Ability: Musical Whine
“Squid lords live in easter masks under the ocean and are known to react negatively upon seeing pineapples. That is why they haven’t been found near Alola, due to its fruit galore.”
Working retail on Thanksgiving suuuuuuuuckssss
*working retail sucks
Retail sucks*
Do you work Tomorrow? My brother works at Old Navy for 7 hours tomorrow
I feel bad for retailers
Why? This is the time of year they sell all the rubbish they couldn’t sell at any other time under the guise of a bargain.
Yeah, but the workers must feel way over worked because of it
I however would love to go to Target and get some sought after figures
Hell no. I always ask off on black friday. I just work at a grocery store, but we usually get busy then anyway for some reason.
Ahh the one Holiday I dread the most… the one where its all about food and I will now literally have at least 12-30 people judging me because I’m very picky with food
I enjoy everything except the meals of Holidays because its when I feel everyone looks upon me with hatred and disappointment
Just eat it you pansy
Tactful.
Expect no sympathy when it comes to picky eaters
Just take a bite and eat it, if it doesn’t make you gag or croak just eat it
I know this feeling as I have issues with pickiness and food. Do you know that people are thinking these things about you or are just feeling this way? I don’t think they would be but if they are just try to ignore it, as long as you have food of some sort and are healthy why does it matter what anyone thinks? Just focus on eating and having a good time where you can, this shouldn’t be something that ruins your day.
I’m surprised no one really cared for once and just kinda let it be
This has been a good Thanksgiving
Just caught my (second) shiny Nuzleaf, wow. It’s weird how many of the same shinies I’m getting!
You can only get the same five damn Pokemon from the wormholes
I know but it’s weird I got the same shinies.
So since some are doing thanksgiving Pokemon might as bring out a semi failed ones
Eggbryo: Normal
Chicklucken or just Clucken: Normal/Flying
And Turking Normal/Flying
A very underdeveloped chick Pokemon resembling a fetus or egg with the most pathetic stats of them all only having 50 for each stat
A standard Pokemonesque Chicken nothing special
Then finally a very obese and pompous turkey Pokemon that can only be evolved if trades with leftovers, it makes up for everything by having massive HP and subpar defense
I want to evolve the Mystery Gift Rockruff into Dusk Lycanroc but I have no idea when I do it in USUM time. Right now it’s 4:26 pm for me but my game’s an hour ahead, 5:26. When is the right time to evolve it in Ultra Moon?
Between 5 AM and 5:59 AM in UM. Might want to find an Ultra Sun Player to do it.
Ugh, that’s so stupid. Why can’t the Reverse World count?
I don’t know if it does.
Darn, I’ll have to wait until either I get it by chance in WonderTrade or a worthwhile GTS trade it up.
Why not just ask someone here to evolve it for you?
i’ll just be patient for a bit.
The reverse world does work.
Huh, really?
Yes. It works for all time based evos.
At what time in UM can you access the Reverse world? It’s daytime in my UM game and it’s not opening.
When I get home I’ll make a temporary thanksgiving mon
I finally caught this stupid Thunudurus who kept on breaking my UBs like they were plastic or something.
Wow, are Yvetal/Xerneas’ catch rate the same from X/Y, because I just caught Yvetal with one Quick ball…
R.IP, looks like you can’t use the Reverse World to get the Dusk Lycanroc. Why? Because the earliest you can access it is RIGHT after the evening ends, at least in the game.
If you have a Solgaleo, you can open up the reverse world portal during the day.
Also the reverse world opens at night in moon iirc, which would take you to day in sun then. This should allow you to evolve Lycan
Oh ok.

I dont like the Photo Club
No other feature in pokemon lets you slap salazzle’s ass
didn’t know you rolled that way
It’s fuckin funny lol
Does this make you a Scaly?
nahh. It’s just really fucking funny in a pokemon game
No other feature lets you slap a Pokemon’s ass in general
yeah but only salazzle is the only one worth it
Ditto I can’t make good poses with my pokes and the lack of rotating your stickers and repositioning your body makes unconvincing photos
you just gotta be creative my dude
Where is everyone???
Tis’ the holiday that is hardly advertised because Christmas is right around the corner.
Haha oh ye of course, I should have known :]
It’s the day people in Unova lop off Ho-oh heads, pluck all their feathers, and roast them in their own flames before consuming their flesh.
Haha that’s something you would see in a saw version of pokemon!
Have you ever seen the saw movies??
Yes, the first one or 2. I get bored of them and they really aren’t re-watchable.
Spending time with Family

almost finished watching this
it has some fantastic points. Really gives me a new perspective on the series
Omega Ruby was fun but I only got it cuz they were out of Alpha Sapphire 😛 Oh well, at least I got a new kyogre from USUM!

I honestly get that
Personally I’m a solitary creature, and given Alolan Ninetales aversion towards other species led to its transformation would suggest territorial purity is important for it
“Get out of me swamp!”
Alolan Ninetales is a b*tch
Alolan Ninetails is my spirit animal
Honestly the UB world that Guzzlord is in is a bit sad, it looks like it was once a thriving factory but some sort of nuclear-esque power devastated it. The other worlds were better as they felt happy and thriving and all but wow, Guzzlord’s was just depressing…
So I didn’t want to overdo the whole pre planned teams but I’m losing willpower
I definitely want a Alolan Sandslash because I truly love Sandshrew and begrudgingly must use one
And I need one in either a heavy ball or premier ball
With either Metal Claw or Icicle Spear as egg moves
I have a Adamant Steadfast Rockruff with Sucker punch to be Midnight form
Grubbin I will just flush out myself but prefer to be modest
And since there’s extremely little I want it’s either going to be Grimer or Salandit
Stufful will be a while to catch
Sandygast even longer
Wow y’all weren’t kidding Totem Araquanid is tough, I mean it took Dusty and Furball out in one hit, Minty lasted about 2 and I could’ve won with Lola’s return, but I attacked the ally instead
Oh yes it’s really tough.
Crushed me the first time. It’s a nice change! xD
Yea. It has probably been the most difficult Totem for me so far. So far the easiest was definitely the 1st one. The 3rd and 4th one were equally difficult to handle but I was fortunate to have a Pokémon with a significant type advantage. All of the trials I have had a team with a 4 level difference (2 for the 1st Trial), and at least one Pokémon has fainted-except for the 1st one. The 1st one has been the easiest. The latter ones I have not gotten to yet so my opinion is withheld.

We have a new Jungler!
I can feel the power just by looking at this beast ?
He’s a beast alright
He’s obeast….
….
I’ll see myself out…
So, while I’m busy trying to breed a Shiny Event Rockruff, I’d like to know what you people are doing. Because why not?
working on completing my dex :0
Ok, while Tom Kenny plays the French Narrator in the Spongebob Musical, he doesn’t play Patchy for some reason. That’s weird
Heading for the Elite Four! I got my Incineroar, Lopunny, Ampharos, Lurantis, Alola Ninetails and Metagross in their late 50’s-early 60’s 😀 Once I hit post-game, I’ll start filling my dex and breeding <3
I usually dont catch beyond 6 until post-game unless its a legendary, but a Shiny Ekans jumped me so I had to 🙁
