We’ve done it!
We’ve collectively caught over 3 Billion Pokémon this week in Pokémon GO, which means Farfetch’d is now available across the globe for the next 48 hours! For those in the East Asian countries that Farfetch’d is already native to, you’ll be able to get your hands on Kangaskhan instead during that same time frame.
In addition to catching Farfetch’d, trainers can take advantage of the other Pokémon GO Travel bonuses we’ve unlocked until the beginning of December:
- 2x Experience
- 2x Stardust
- 6 Hour Lures
Excited to catch this region exclusive in your neck of the woods?
I have to make a decision
I decided to catch Ho-oh but I underestimated the sheer willpower of the flying turkey
I wasted nearly my entire inventory catching it and it is modest…
Should I reset and go for adamant? Or run a special ho-oh
Reset for Adamant
Would that Zoraora thing you were talking about a spoiler for me? (I’m at the beggining of Chapter RR) If it wouldn’t be, what is it?
It’s the new mythical leaked with USUM
Its a Electric type, with a new move called Plasma fists which changes all normal attacks into electric ones during that turn. It’s a physical attacker and it looks like a Bipedial cat of sorts
But…
Would it be a spoiler for me?
If you don’t want any of the none official announced things spoiled *excluding what you already have seen* than it would be a spoiler
So it’s not revealed in USUM story? Oh, okay so it’s not a spoiler for me, thx
Nope it’s completely irrelevant to the story
Eh. It’s not a story spoiler anyway. Unless you didn’t want to know info about Zeraora like type and stats. It’s like when we found out about Volcanion, Diancie, and Hoopa.
Mythicals aren’t in game spoilers. I spoke with Dicie about this and he said it should be fine.
WTF why is Wishiwashi so powerful?!
A wild one summoned another one and the two of them mowed down all but my Seel and I ran before they could touch my Minty
OH
MY
F*CKING
ARCEUS
ZERAORA
IS
SO
DOPE
It’s probably the most boring mythical to date tbh. It’s a common typing with a common abiltiy and its move pool is nothing special beyond the Fighting moves which show why it should be Fighting type but was introduced right after a more interesting fighting mythical
WELL NOT FOR ME
I love its colours
Cats are my fav animals
I like its design
I’ve been waiting for a more Plasma related Electric type for some time
I kinda think if it grows on me a little more it Might become my fav mon (Sorry Inci, your position is kinda endangered)
Furry confirmed
Actually I’m not one (even tho it’d make sense lol) and I’m kinda weirded out by them
Fake news
Alfurnative facts
It was one of the few things I looked at from the datamine and I still need to get used to it
Something about it just seems off
It’s boring furbait
It doesn’t look like a gen 7 Pkm tbh, but maybe that’s because is probably an in between gens Pkm, like Magearna fe
Design? Absolutely
Everything else? Nah
Kinda true
It’d be better as part Fighting
Maybe, just maaaaaybe it’ll get a form
Or better yet
A mega if GF hasn’t stopped caring about it yet
Yeah, but I don’t think we’re getting real megas any time soon
We’re probably getting in Gen 8 another insightful gimmick (abilitis bUt strongz) and completely forgetting about the other 2 so yeah, I have to agree
Introducing
Gigabilities
Give a special Giga Rock to your pokemon
And their Ability becomes a Gigability
Including:
Giga Intimidate
The opponent is so scared of your mon it sh*ts itself
Giga Sturdy
Your pokemon can’t lose more than one HP
Giga Poison Point
The Opponent is forced to eat cyanide
(I’m sorry)
Where did you get Zeraora?
It’s a mythical, it hasn’t been distributed yet so he’s probably just looking at datamined info
Basically just the design
Oh.
Hmm what type could a prism be? pure Psychic? Rock/Psychic? Pure Rock?
And just to make it clear yes I know Necrozma is a prism Pokémon, they are in no way related to one another
I think it could be
Psychic in its usual form
Psychic/Steel when fused with Solgaleo
Psychic/Ghost when fused with Lunala
And Psychic/Dragon in its pure form
You know for someone obsessed about spoilers… You just spoiled something
Necrozma’s ultra form was revealed few days ago on The Japanese Pokemon YT channel
I don’t think this is a Japanese board
what
that has nothing to do with it
if it was officially revealed it’s not a spoiler
People here are still playing through the game. It’s a story spoiler. As they are not Japanese, it was not officially revealed to them.
It has so much to do with it lol
The very site we’re on doesn’t mark things officially revealed (No matter where) as spoilers (and they mark things like game leaks as spoilers)
It’s not been shown on a non spoiler PJ article so it can still be a spoiler
Enjoy fairy type specialist Lillie
Iirc it wasn’t covered here in PJ and there are people here who don’t use Celeby soooo
^^^ This
I see what you did there -_-
I think I’ll make it pure Psychic for the first stage then add Rock in its evolution
It’d do it the other way around, 1st stage pure rock, evolved form Rock/Psychic
It annoys me it’s not part rock…
That way it could have some more exploitable weaknesses
It should be that or Psychic/Dark instead of just Psychic
Hey all you TCG players if your big in the competitive field be prepared to spend alot of money to get yourself this broken af card this Febuary

Finally, I collected all 100 Totem Stickers
I still have 2 more to collect but they are beyond my reach until I beat the pokemon league
I’m up to 70 now. Got a bunch of Po Town. Just wondering if I missed any. It’l gonna be a pain if I did because then I’ll have to do a crap ton of back tracking…..
I got about 71 wish Totem Stickers, but I’m not really feeling the urge to collect 100, at least by myself. I’m gonna use a guide probably from this time on.
That’s what I did
I had 84 last I checked
I’m really curious about the poll that has been going on regarding opinions on USUM. There were a couple people who voted that they thought the original games were better, and I’m curious to hear the reasoning. I think USUM are great, and are everything the original two should have been in terms of story and character development. Not trying to start an argument just hoping for a friendly discussion 😀
59. I am still before Sophocles Trial. I think I have collected all of the stickers at his site and I think I was only unable to not get one so far because I think I would have needed Machamp for it.
I prefer USUM over the originals because of how much more you can do. There’s Episode RR, with all the main villains returning, plus ~37 legendaries available to catch unlike S/M’s very lacklustre amount of legendaries, and how Lusamine is redeemed in this game which I personally found really sweet.
I replied to the wrong comment. I meant to reply to Alex. Sorry if I caused confusion on your part.
Maybe it’s because due to a story perspective:
Some people say the story is worse due to removing crazy Lusamine among other plot points, and some argue the the new additions to the story were poorly implemented (like the Rainbow rocket)
But about gameplay id really k, maybe they though that the additions were unnecessary or something like that
People just have v high expectations and just don’t appreciate the good GF has done.
For me USUM is easily better than SM despite similarities. For me possibly best of all time although ill see once I’ve completed the game!
Just want to say I like what they did with Totem Pokémon in Pokémon Refresh. I am not sure if it applies to all of them since I have only used it for Salazzle but it is nice that Gamefreak spends time paying attention to small details like Size.
What does it do? :0
Nothing really. It is just that the Pokémon is so large that it takes up both screens. You would have to press the stylus on the top of the bottom screen to move your reach and vision up to the upper part of the Pokémon and the opposite to reach the bottom side of the Pokémon. It really makes me feel like there is a significant size difference between the Totem and the character. Again I have only done Pokémon Refresh with Salazzle.
Giant Salazzle….
I mean she is just 6’11.
There should be a Totem Wailord or Celesteela.
Pokemon Refresh with Lunala is DEVASTATING. I mean, first of all, Lunala causes the game to lag so much, and plus, you have to carry the item ALL THE WAY UP of the bottom screen just so you can reach its mouth. Yeah, large Pokemon with Poke-Refresh is impossible. Basically.
Iirc SM did the same with big Pkms like Celesteela :0
Minor Story Spoiler
Why do we get Poipole soooo late? If you could get it earlier it’d probably use it
About getting an Ub
I think it’s probably just that the UB Recon Squad don’t trust us exactly and use it to not only test it and train it, but also to figure out whether we’re worthy enough for it.
Dude it’s a UB why would you ever think you’d get one early
I mean, I had a complete fully evolved team when they offered it to it, it’d be better if we could catch it at the third Island
It’s basically a legend
I mean in the original S/M you can easily get a (10%) Zygarde really early, about before the Grass trial, so it’s not too crazy of an idea.
You can’t get 10% Zygarde until after the 6th Trial tho
Oh, really? I thought you can get a level 30-ish Zygarde at that Aether mobile in Route 8.
It’s only at the Aether base before Ula’ula Meadow iirc
Oh…huh, that makes sense. OH YEAH, the Grass Totem isn’t over lvl 30, sorry I got it mixed up.
It’s fine, you don’t need to apologise at all :p
It’s a UB
Nuff said 😛
Snowslash
Midnight Lycanroc
Vikavolt
Alolan Muk
Bewear
Pallossand
Think this can handle Ultra Necrozma?
No starter?
Snowshrew is my started this time around
God Jerri not everyone uses starters
A.Muk probably can mostly on its’ own with the right set and high enough level.
Ehh you’re right
Honestly everything I will face will be minor inconveniences
Ultra Necrozma is the only thing I genuinely fear the rest are just in the way
Pallossand and I think Muk (depends if he’s part-dark) ar super-effective against Necrozma so yes, I think you’re able to handle him.
Super effective is nothing unless I can survive an attack
I think as long as you’re at least a level or two above him, you’ll do fine. I used a Primarina and got it down in two hits.
No you need a quick claw destiny bond Gardevoir
Or 5 revives and First Impression
But where would you get a Ralts without Pokemon Bank in Pokemon USUM prior to that battle?
Island Scan
Ah, I didn’t know you could get Ralts with Island Scan.
It’s funny I haven’t used island scan ONCE in the series
It’s how you get Ryhorn in Alola though, without Bank or trading that is.
It’s also how you can catch a Togekiss too.
Yep, though I doubt that interests Earthen at all.
Ah, yeah I doubt he’d want it.
I know, but I have an entire herd of Rhyhorn
Island Scan
Thank you everyone for all your responses.
Island Scan
Zeraora is basically a Super Sayian version of the Furry bait mons
No that’s super sonic
https://youtu.be/oShTJ90fC34
Aren’t super Saiyans supposed to be better ??
Why does Grumpig do such a weird, wavy dance when encountering it?
…..that’s its entire origin?
Nearly every one of its dex entries state it preform odd rhythmic dances when executing psychic powers
It’s weird dance just bothers me though, it’s not a Comfey or Ula Ula Oricorio, it shouldn’t do some sort of luau dance.
Well tough, either leave it be, KO it or capture it
Leave it of course, I’d even be reluctant to catch it if it was a shiny.
What not good enough for a regular run of the mill Grumpig! You sicken me *slaps you across the face* Good day sir!
I prefer Mamoswine the “pig” over this anyday.
So as I have seen this spark some comments in the comments section before I just want to say that yesterday’s episode of Dragon Ball Super (I think it was 117) had the thickest women that I have ever seen in animation.
E X T R A T H I C C
Do tell
Girl fights in a thick form, starts to get beat up, loses thick form, everyone sends her their love?? (She is from a weird universe), and attains this form of ultimate “beauty” where she is larger than a number of football fields-a giant women-with immense curves.
…………….pardon me for the next….2-6minutes
The scene where she becomes super thick is like the last 7 minutes of the episode.
And done
Who is fighting?
18 Vs Ribrianne
18 <3 hope she can win.
Honestly I’d find it even nicer if the Totem you can get with trading stickers get the aura as well as the Totem song. It’d be funny having a random wild yungoos being forced to take on Totem Kommo-o.
I wonder how Snowshrew uses Icicle Spear, I kinda imagine it’s tail glows bluish white and it spins on its belly firing a cascade of icy needles
Probably. Snowslash learns it by evolve now and that’s simple to see.
Well it’s easy to see it probably just fires spines from either its back or from its claws
I’m talking about Snowshrew
That’s what I meant. Btw if you want I can breed you a Heavy Ball Shrew. I’m thinking on making the egg moves Night Slash, Curse, Endure and Amnesia.
(I edited it to say Snowshrew)
But as for the egg I just need a female, no fancy moves I’ll probably end up deleting them just so my Snowshrew has only Icicle Spear and Metal Claw nothing more nothing less
You want Slush Rush?
It really does not matter
Why is this so satisfying
https://youtu.be/qJz18c6gw8c
Wow, I never realized how stressful getting a shiny Altaria is. After learning that it has Perish Song, I was getting a bit freaked out and was desperately trying to catch it immediately. Luckily i got it before it even used perish song but wow, shiny Altaria is stressful to catch.
Also, apparently male and female Hippowdon have separate shinies.
Didnt have any quick balls handy?
I had quick balls but it got out immediately. After paralyizng, I luckily got it with one dusk ball.
@Monkeyfuzz i got Mareanie to level 33 and move tutored water pulse onto it
OK good, still want Scald?
Nah i think its good for now. Its got water pulse, recover, toxic and venoshock
Yeah those are good for it.
Finally got a Friend Ball Treecko from the GTS.
I got a shiny lvl 100 primarina through WT but idk if its fake though.
it is
Most likely is. What is the OT?
I cant tell you off the top of my head cause im out right now but its moveset was shitty (bubblebeam, sparkling aria, moonblast and dazzling gleam?) and it was holding a masterball
Most likely a hack giveaway from youtube.
Thats a thing? Lol i feel like a total noob to everything outside of the regular stuff of a pokemon game
Yeah some youtube users do it. I won’t say any of the names I know because I don’t want to promote them.
Ok in the air ultra warp they WILL stop putting out Energy Rings
I was on fire and hit pretty much every ring and artfully evaded every spark but as I neared the 6k mark I noticed a complete decline in rings
The max limit must be either 6.5k because my highest was 6418
Heyy folks!!!!!
EVERYONE SHOULD WATCH COCO
That is all.
The only Coco I know is Montrese
New Pixar film.
I really want to, we don’t get it until January though. Did you get a Kelpsy berry btw?
No 🙁 I’ve been trying since that day every midnight and I get every other ev reducing berry
I can trade you one now. I’ll need your FC again I think.
Im still at the cinema lol
I’ll see if I can coordinate with you once I get home?
OK, I should be back in around 4 and a half hours or tomorrow.
As soon as I get back to Poland, I’m going to see it
*Enters red portal*
*In the spit second I see a Yanmega silloutte*
I mutter to myself “It better be blue otherwise *Notices its blue* “Uph never mind”
Congrats on the Shiny Yanmega lol
Meh it isn’t that good
Brave utterly the worst nature but whatevs I like the military green over the blue
Still cool to have tho. Even if it doesn’t have the nature you want
If you could remove one of each, which would you remove and why? Actual reasoning pls, but some answers are going to be more subjectively answered
Type:
Species:
Attack:
Ability:
Item:
Character:
Type: Rock, as it’s the most expendable, and from what I’ve seen one of the least popular. I believe all types have a role in the type chart but rock is by far the one I’d eliminate if I had to
Species: Castform, and if I could do more than one every gimmickmon from Hoenn. They’re all hard to use in game and are terrible in competitive, but Castform is so weak and there’s something that does everything it can do better.
Attack: Confuse Ray. The most annoying status shouldn’t have a 100% accuracy move. Even attract has limitations and thunder wave can miss.
Ability: Magic Bounce, because it’s frustrating asf lol
Item: All the Memories. They’re useless. Just let Silvally scan plates or something.
Character: Rotom Dex. Worst. Dex. Ever.
Type: Rock, it only adds unnecessary confusion to newcomers because it’s basically ground type, it really needs to fuse with the other to form Earth type.
Specie: Stantler, (is not bias I swear ?) this Pkm is really just space filler that really didn’t need to fill any space. It doesn’t even have a little gimmick (castform) or ‘interesting’ look (pineco) to justify it 😐
Attack: Bestow, there are better alternatives to this move really.
Ability: Slow start, they should give Gigaregi another better move, this Pkm is supposed to be intimidating but now it’s just a jok cuz of this ability.
Item: Strange Souvenir, only to hype up SM an don’t even resemble any legend at all but there might be more items like that idk
Character: Most of XY rivals, annoying, cliche and with lackluster character development and personality 🙂
And just noticed that your username is a feh joke lol
