Should I just use my master ball on this dude? I've reset like a dozen times trying to catch him with dusk/ultra/timer balls and still haven't got him.
>>728593582quick ball, dude
>>728595394>quick ball4x multiplier (first turn only so full health/no status)>dusk ball3.5x multiplier but you can chip off some health and add a status before throwing
Ultra ball FTW
>>728593582low HP and cast sleep, ez
>>728598167just use the quick ball.
>>728593582If you ain't catching the demon pokemon in a dusk ball for aesthetics you ain't playing pokemon right.
>>728593582Wtf is that
>>728593582Just stall for 50 turns then spam timer balls, though your opponent might be dead from struggling by that point.
>>728593582why are you resetting? do you have only one dusk ball or something?
>>728600640The Dusk ball looks terrible with him, even if it's thematically appropriate.The Ultra or Timer match much better.But really, why doesn't OP have a hundred Ultra Balls so he can hunt the Shiny?
>>728601487I don't think he's trying to get a shiny giratina. He's resetting the game because he fails to catch him
What's the point of doing it with resets? Just use cheats and force the capture.
>>728601690You now realize what a waste of time RNG is in single player video games
The only way to correctly capture a Pokemon with a Master Ball is if you encounter a Pokemon that likes to run away like Entei.
>>728601747>>728601690I ironically use cheat engine in every game now, especially if its for tedious stuff.like for example some autistic devs have this insane idea about what should be allowed etc so they impose some weird ass grinding restriction or force you to walk back all the way to do something.its like I remember playing underrail and even seeing in the forums when people asked about fast travel or the ability to stockpile items in some kind of area or increasing inventory capacity, the dev just chimped out, and was like "NOOOOO YOU HAVE TO SPEND 500 HOURS WALKING BACK AND FORTH IN DIFFERENT AREAS REMEMBERING EVERY SINGLE ITEM YOU DROPED ON THE GROUND SINCE I AM NEVER LETTING YOU HAVE EASY STORAGE OF YOUR ITEMS" like the game forces you to store items in random trash cans since your carrying capacity is shit the whole game. and im like fuck that shit and used cheat engine.its also the same for some games like risk of rain or the binding of isaac games that force you to grind for hours doing weird fetch quests to unlock certain conditions for items and characters etc. its fucking stupid and specifically designed to not respect your time
>>728601910>a Pokemon that likes to run away like Entei.or just catch a pokemon with an ability like sand trap so it can't run away?
>Gen IV was the only gen to have pokeball sealsI hate Game Freak so much it's unreal
>>728602476I bet they saw people making racial slurs with them and decided to scrap the concept from future gamesit also could be because of their stupid philosophy of "every pokemon game must be unique" so that's why they don't bring features back in other games, even if they're beloved by the fans
>>728600925He only has like 30pp total.
>>728604367if I managed to catch my shiny one with a dusk ball then you can too
>>728593582>let's add a fucking jumpscare to a pokemon game
>>728593582duskball or ultraball because itll look cool! dont give up, skeletrainer!
I remember spending a whole hour throwing balls at the Spear Pillar Palkia because I was insanely unlucky. Quick Ball failed turn one, had it asleep and threw tons of ultra balls and nothing caught. Then used my ten timer balls, they didn’t work either. Went back to ultra balls and got it. Then I caught Dialga with the first quick ball.
I only use normal pokeballs because they're the most iconic
>>728593582>this dude>>728601487>with him>>728601615>catch him>>728604367>HeHER NAME IS TINA
>>728602632it's funny they did bring them back in the shitty remake but removed the letter seals
>>728605865HIS name is GARY.
>>728605865look at HIM go
>>728602185Great idea!
i caught all the legends in platinum this year using rng manipulation. was fun
>>728605865Look at the absolute size of this dude
bitch i caught palkia w an ultra, get good
>>728609253>w an ultracall me when you catch it on a regular pokeball, n00b
>>728609253I caught it with a beast ball.
>>728609253I caught a Beldum in a normal Pokeball in Diamond, the most difficult capture I've ever successfully done in the entire series.
>>728605865He’s a big boy
imagine struggling with modern pokemon
can't you save before giratina? cyrus was a pain in the clitoris to fight, but actually keeping pokemon anymore is pointless if you can't save them.
>>728611021Yeah you can also just run away from Giratina and it will respawn after you beat the elite 4 and Cynthia. That's how you set up for rng abuse or shiny hunting too
>>728593582I only used my master ball on roaming and shinies that I liked, everything that I could save before I did with quick timer dark and a billion ultra balls along with whatever random shit I had left
>>728611081>or shiny hunting too>he doesn't shiny hunt the distortion form giratinasoulless
>>728593582>/timerfake. just sleep it, 30 turns and go
>>728611279call me a gay nigger, but I think normal giratina looks better than its shiny form
>>728607160>>728608989
hey guys
>>728611345you're worse than a gay nword
>>728611347>round wall baby walrus commanding the gods of Space, Time, Death, and the universeI kneel...
>>728611347palkia has some really big feet
>>728611384>nwordAnd somehow you're even worse.
>>728611356might use this goofy nigga for the battle frontier
>>728611482I don't wanna risk a ban, broI would be more than happy to just say it
>>728611514Catching a 3 day ban is just like getting your red wings.
>>728611652I'm too addicted to 4chan to go on a 3day vacation
>>728611685Either way, surely you must think there are pokemon whose normal forms look better than their shiny forms. Making shit like Tauros or Ursaring green looks stupid.
>>728612000of course I dobut I still love hunting for them
>>728612038>t. shiny gengar
>>728612210i have the tism broI have to get them all...
>>728612242>I have to get them all...That is what you've been conditioned to do. I did the whole "kill 500 of them to make a shiny more common" thing on Registeel in Sword version, until I found out that this doesn't actually work on static encounters. Then I found a shiny Registeel anyway
>>728612210Shiny Haunter is cool.
>>728602179Ok cheater
>>728613038sure. i would have preferred if shiny gengar just had blue eyes like how shiny haunter has a blue mouth instead of what they did
>>72861134599% of shinies are shitty and ugly.
>>728601487For me, it's the Premier ball
>>728614739does your emploeon know Bide?
>>728593582Catch it with a Poké Ball you filthy casual
>>728615815>he doesn’t know https://youtube.com/watch?v=QZb2y8aNggM
>>728610898Yeah, ever since they nerfed it to deal 1/4 HP instead of chip recoil it's unironically worthless. Terrible gameplay decision.
>>728595394>>728598167Quick ball also allows for a faster reset.You don't need to waste time in battle.
>>728614739Genuinely what the fuck was he thinking?and why does his mum sound hot?
>>728616108I wonder who could be behind this post.
>>728610898This.
>>728615574Me too
>>728605970Man I miss those days when you could be a complete asshole.Playing soulsilver with a Gyarados named Hitler was fun
>>728619759For me, it was Electrode named BINLADEN
>>728615993Wow I did not know that you could even hit a Ghost type with Bide
>>728619759yeah i think starting with xy you can't even name your rivals anymore. super gay
>>728619905Yeah it sucks man, granted these I name my pokemon after greek mythology or anime/vidya characters.Needless to say naming Heracross Heracles was very fitting
>>728611356Shiny hunting Drapion in Platinum was one of the worst experiences of my life. Fucking Skorupi is an extra slot mon for the Great Marsh, meaning it's not guaranteed and you might not even know if it's there or not, as some extra slot mons are the same as the regular encounter table mons too. And time traveling to reroll the marsh is a crapshoot, the game may trigger the time travel penalty on you without telling you, so you could be rerolling and genuinely get the same extra slot mons, or you could be locked in to what you have today for 24 hours.AND on top of that, it's a fucking Safari Zone with wacko mechanics different than the Safari Zones before it. AAAAAAND it's also filled with trainers that walk around, which advance frames, so even if you somehow get a day where Skorupi spawns in, you better hope it's in Area 5 or Area 6 so you can minimize frame advancement to get it.I got a Skorupi in Area 6 through sheer luck and rerolled to get a shiny and then fucked off forever from that horrible place.
>>728620242>AAAAAAND it's also filled with trainers that walk around, which advance framesOuch, I think I've seen you post about that Skorupi before. The NPCs advancing frames also makes egg RNG a bitch
>>728620242>Shiny huntingWhats even the fucking point, I haven't seen a shiny in almost 10 yearsAlso Drapion isn't really a pokemon I'd want on my team anyway
>>728620461Yeah, it's probably been me. I did get it, so I'm glad I don't have to do that hell again (unless I want the other marsh shinies (which I don't)).My favorite shinies to get in gen 4 though are the HGSS roamers. Those are actually fun because of the bullshit you have to do. Suicune, Entei, and Raikou generate on different frames when they're released from the Burned Tower, so you can't guarantee they're all shiny at once. And in that game you can respawn defeated legendaries by beating the Elite Four. Only problem is that the reroll happens the moment you step onto the tile to challenge Lance, and the game saves afterwards, so if you fuck up rerolling is a bitch. Also, you can't call trainers while you're in the Elite Four buildings, so you can't verify your seed or advance frames normally through Professor Elm or Juggler Irwin. You CAN bring two Chatots, but I found the upgraded League to be a super ballache that I couldn't give up any party members for those birdbrains.So the solution I found to this was a more obscure program called RadioSeed. It uses the Pokegear's radio stations to both confirm the frame and to advance it. With that I got all three roamers shiny, then snagged them. Entei was an absolute bitch because it knew Roar and I wanted to catch it in a Heavy Ball, which I get the Heavy Ball penalty for because Entei doesn't weigh enough.
>>728621012What is this autism I am reading?I'm just happy to fucking beat Red lmao
>>728621347Pokemon is a vastly different franchise when you get into RNG manipulation. A fuckton of fun, but still. Check out this shit to see what I mean:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p9IhBTcTw9w
>>728615993lmao the empathetic gasp from the mom when he finally tells her the source of his pain
>RNG cheatingYou didn't catch the shiny
>>728621012what the fuck dude just gameshark it in>uh no i wanted to do it legit by using a bunch of third party programs lolretarded
>>728622820No man, that's boring. There's basically no work or game even played, you're just skipping to the end. Sure, RNG manipulation shortcuts the process, but you're still playing the game and dealing with its eccentricities, all without any hardware or software actually touching the game itself. And that's the real fun part.It's like using the Poke Radar. Does it require a learning curve? Yes. Does it shortcut the way to get shinies? Yes. Is it still fun cause you're playing a minigame within the game? You bet.
>>728622958I see, you've conflated autistic number obsession and collectathon behavior with gameplay. I'm glad your brain rewards you for such useless retarded behavior but please, don't explain yourself to anyone ever again without acknowledging that you have mental issues.
>>728623467Anon, we're here on 4chan. If you're a normalfag there's more normal places to discuss Pokemon. I come here to talk with other autists.
>>728623543That's not autistic that's retarded
>>728623642I hate to tell you this anon, but 4chan is for autists. Somehow failed normalfags thought autists made for good company, then rejected them when they didn't like the hyperfixation autism.If that sounds like you, then this website probably isn't where you're meant to be.
>>728623843I hate to tell you this but you're a retarded newfag, not autistic, sorry to break it to you
>>728623467>I see, you've conflated autistic number obsession and collectathon behavior with gameplayreset game 4000 times for shiny giratina = gameplaydo some basic math and run numbers on a program for 2 hours for shiny giratina = autismits the same shit
>>728623903And you're just proving my point. Goodnight anon, hopefully you will realize the truth someday.
>>728595394My brother caught all his legendaries with a quick ball unless he got caught lacking. Save in front of the legendary, one quick ball, fail? reset. fail? reset. fail? reset. Success? Success.One time in Ultra Sapphire or some shit he got caught lacking during the storyline he had to battle Rayquaza, in my memory it's the only time he had to play regularly inflicting status and downing HPs, spamming hyper balls.
>>728623925both are autism and fucked up reward-pathways>>728623968>proving your pointYou've made no point besides admitting that you're so retarded you can't understand how retarded you are and like some retarded midwit you believe you're actually some autistic genius savant because of your retardation being different that a normies retardation
better than the original and the first mega's
>>728624057>loses the chad jawlineno sir
>>728598167>Giratina, Go!!>throws Dusk Ball>Giratina emerges from the Purple Hazy Darkness just like his DimensionDusk Ball is canon ball, YDNBTG
>>728624038>says it's autism>and in the same post says it's retardationso which is it?
>>728624057Garchomp should have used Gible's shiny palette
>>728624169>so retarded he doesnt know he's retardedfor you, it's this
>>728624184
I thought this is nothing but a beautiful daydream, a reverie that this majestic pokemon trainer entered my home- you should have seen it.It was this perfect image of peace, making love with this Pokemon trainer through this enormous, platinum, girthy Peter, and there was Pokemon living off the land in harmony- so I slaughtered him
>>728593582You should capture him in a Dusk Ball for aesthetic reasons.
>>728624351the only ball that fits giratina is this though
>>728624228im not even the same anon you were sperging out at lmao
>>728625052what about shiny? quick ball?
>>728626471moon ball
Just keep going you’ll get it eventually
>>728626793That's what they told me about getting a girlfriend.
