Calmly asking for Zekrom route
>>56526758And this is why we won't ever get proper online communication features in a Pokemon game.
>take clear smog off the team>fight dondozo every match>put clear smog on the team>never see dondozo againI HATE THIS MINIGAME
>>56528093wtf is that?
>>56528763Zekrom in Dynamax adventures
I hope you guys are ready for infernape.
>>56529296The Infernape raid event has already started.Moves:Flare BlitzAura SphereTera BlastGrass KnotThe gimmick this time around is that it uses a stats reset -> Nasty Plot immediately after putting up its tera shield (at 80% time remaining), which makes it hit like a truck. It eventually uses a Swords Dance as well, powering up its Flare Blitz too.
>>56529504Thank you, I'll work up a way to beat him soon. as I stop being lazy.
>>56529504Wouldn't the previous Contrary Malamar strat work?
>>56530340Just slap his shit with Iron Hands.Or Bullet Proof Kommo-o if you're looking for easy answers
>>56530351another option is to bring a support chansey into a group of iron hands. heal them up after belly drums and it's smooth sailing.
>S/VAnyone with a spare Auspicious Armor want to trade it for a Malicious Armor?I don't care what pokemon holds the item, I just want to make an Armarouge.I'll be available for the next 2 hours.
>>56529504I solo'd with Koraidon, screech, sword dance, drain punch + metronome.All you really need is one sword dance then spam drain punch.
Anyone wanna grind that infernape raid with me?>>56528783I have one saved

Well it finally happened, after so much hunting and messing around in Paldea, my joycons have finally started to drift (i've had the switch since launch so the fact that these have lasted so long is a miracle). Should i go for official joycons or are there good third party options?
>>56532488hori pad pro
>>56532488If you are vaguely comfortable with using a screwdriver, just get some replacement sticks.Preferably hall effect ones.
>>56532488Most likely your stick isn't physically broken, just clogged. Try to see if you can clean it with WD-40 first (https://www.imore.com/how-fix-controller-drift-your-joy-cons, scroll down to 'How to fix drift with compressed air'). I have a launch day Switch and the only time my Joy-Cons drifted that fixed it.
>>56532899Not saying that this isn't possible but out of the four irl friends that have a Switch all of them had drift issues with joycons (mine too so 5) and none of them got fixed cuz of that.Two sent them to Big N and one did the "put something below the stick" fix (he 3D printed a small sheet and minimally used glue; worked).Personal bias tells me that these don't just drift cuz of gunk.
>>56533048God I hope that the next pro controller/joy cons are FAR better quality than they are now so I no longer will have to worry about drift ever again.
Wish that they would have let you hunt the sword and shield dogs in SV
I'm so close to having registered all pokemon available in pokemon home. There are two that I've come here to beg for, preferably through touch trade using pokemon home:Espurr - pokemon go origin Rotom - pokemon go originThough I prefer touch trade I want to offer some incentive for you. I enjoy trading on home and tend to trade for shinies anytime I see one. I cannot vouch for the legitimacy of the method by which these shinies were obtained, only that home allowed them to be traded. I may still have pokemon lying around if you need any for pokedex completion, but I have traded many that I obtained while pursuing my own completion goal. I'll be around for a few hours after this post.
>>56534951I have an Espurr from GO at HOME. I have Rotoms in GO but haven't transferred one yet to HOME. GO Rotoms are very rare and gatekept in-game which is why you can't find them dime a dozen from GTS. I can touch trade you Espurr no problem but I'd need a bigger enticement for that Rotom. If you could touch trade me a Mew with the LGPE mark (you know, the one from the Poke Ball Plus thing) I'd seriously consider transferring one of my GO Rotoms for you. Only other thing that would interest me is a legit Mew with VC (GB icon) mark but that one I'd like to keep instead of a touch trade
>>56534991Sadly since my trading is done in home I do not have a collection of spare mythicals. I do not own LGPE, BDSP, or have a linked Go account. I understand about the Rotom and not finding one makes much more sense now, but would still be happy to touch trade the Espurr if you're willing.
>>56535003Ok, give me your FC to touch trade Espurr
>>56535010Wait I'm an idiot. I may have a GB Mew in a cherish ball. I'll post a picture if I do or my fc if I don't. I wish you could have both versions of home open at once.
>>56535015Ok, I'll wait here
>>56535016I have two Mews in a cherish ball that I believe to be legit. Please let me know if you catch something suspicious that I didn't. Only one has the GBA mark and I wouldn't mind parting with it.Rakshas: JPLDTWUCYXTD
>>56535027This one has the Kalos mark and checks out with the Gamestop distro. Unfortunately if the other Mew has the GB mark and is in a Cherish Ball then it is not legit.https://serebii.net/events/dex/151.shtmlScroll down to 2016 and you will see that Mew with GB mark is in a normal Poke Ball. Legit transfer path goes:VC (with legit OT, flags, etc) -> Transporter (does not assign Cherish Ball to this Mew) -> Bank -> HOMEI'll add you for the Espurr, IGN is Checo and my code is RUCBNPPBRDYJ
>>56535039Oh, I only checked my Mews in cherish balls. I'll check the others I have after we trade.
>>56535046Alright, will keep monitoring thread
>>56535052There isn't a chance that this one is real according to the serebii page you linked bit it made me laugh. I'm sorry that I have no Mew for you. Thank you for helping me with Espurr!
>>56535067No problem, you should check out some Discords or Reddits for some GO whale that could have GO Rotoms willing to help with touch trade. Godspeed and good luck!
Anyone want a legal shiny pokemon ranger manaphy?
>>56535190What's the catch?
>>56535195There is no catch
>>56535199>>56535214Whatchu want?
>>56535190"""legal"""
>>56535393Your pick, I don't mind>>56535401I got it via that arbitrary code execution in the gen 4 games. It really depends on what your benchmark for a legit mon is.
>>56535436You want to trade over HOME?
>>56535455I don't think I have the mobile app installed, we can do it in SV if that's ok?
>>56535455I'm gonna go to bed soon, if you want to do the trade i'm up for it in the next 20 minutes
>>56528085I miss my friends /vp/, I miss'em alot.
>>56535456>>56535544Tomorrow for sure.I don't mind SV at all.I seriously didn't expect you to answer and just wanted to flex your shinies desu.
>>56528085Can the next op include more expired events?
>>56535873Ok I will, thanks for the heads up though. If I make the next thread I'll remove it.
>>56535436can i get shiny manaphy :))))i consider arbitrary code execution legal in my eyes :^)
And that's the Infernape raid done.I bet you named yours a better name than I did mine.I named him Serkis.
>>56535753Alright I'm awake, ready whenever you are>>56536723I have 2 so I can give you one too
>>56537818awesome (im 56536723)Trade code will be this posts number
>>56537896My bad, one of my friends wanted to play with me, i'll be good in an hour
>>56537904alright no worries
>>56529504First timed it with >>56530928Thanks anon. Collision Course as 4th move chunked this bitch after a single Screech.Got KO'd once after the shield was down because the bitch critted me for 98% HP and finished off with an immediate Grass Knot. But then Orichalcum Pulse into Collision Course happened and I mopped the floor with the face of that ugly ape.
>>56537907ready
>>56538030ok starting againthis time trade code is 1576 9089
>>56538030thank you very much anon :DDD
>>56538064np
>>56537954My NSO ran out so I'm glad this one was easy to solo.
I need miraidon and spirit tomb. I also need someone to union circle with so I can evolve the dolphin. I don't have much to offer. Just every other dex entry in Scarlet.
>>56538582I can trade a Miraidon and a bdsp Spiritomb. I don't need them back. Unfortunately I'm not by my switch to help with Palafin. Friend code?
>>56538669Would this be on home or something? I haven't used that. I've just been using Scarlet to trade. Code is SW 1056 8314 3140
>>56538694Yeah, it would be on home. I'm at work and my switch isn't with me.
>>56538706Damn. I knew I'd need it. Guess I'll figure out how home works and connects.
>>56538718I'll keep watch on the thread as best as I can. My friend code is >>56535027
Jump!
>>56538736Okay. I made it 9n switch and phone. Added you too.
>>56535436Are you still there? I had work all day cuz of an emergency
When is the next outbreak happening?
>>56540342Yup
Bump
Just a few more outbreak mon and then I'll connect to the internet again.
>>56540342I'm ready when you are
>>56541328After I went to sleep>>56543038And now before I'm going to work. Such a bad timing. Your AUS or NZ, are you not?
>>56543125Nah i live in the US, i just sleep weird
This doesn't quite deserve it's own thread, but has pokemon Bank shut down? I wanted to transfer some leftover mons to home, but it cannot sign in to nintendo network. It worked fine just last week, so has it been shut down? and if not, does it work for anyone else? Maybe it's maintenance?
>>56543204No major announcements, could be a simple unexpected downtime for background maintenance or just degraded services for a window of time. And yes, it still works, I also transferred some Pokemon last week and it worked
>>56543245I'll try again later then, thanks
>>56543127I'll be off in like 3h
I am once again asking for Miraidon and Spirit tomb for Scarlet. I don't have anything to offer really. At best I have bdsp legendaries and a shiny cetoddle from a random trade it seems legitimate.
>>56543994Make a new save and play he game again to get a second Koraidon and then trade that in GTS
>>56544004I was looking at the trades and none had it offered. I don't care about koraidon so I'm willing to trade it too but when I looked it said none available. Surprised me.
>>56544008If put it there yourself and it should be traded in hour tops, you might get a hacked on thoughever.
>>56544009Weird. There was one for mewtwo. I just traded that. Pretty cool.
The only trades left up on GTS are bad trades.if you put something reasonable up, it'll get taken within 2 hours maximum.
>>56544355How is that different from any GTS since Gen IV?
>>56544413It doesnt have hacked shiny Rayquazas wanting Zigzagoons with "Quit the GTS" gender.
>>56544997Bloodmoon is the new meta
GTS is wild sometimes, I really wish that some people wouldn't trade bait by putting mons that are unobtainable legally.
>>56543702Ready?
Any VGC players?Are you running a niche mon in reg H? Tell me about it.
>>56545940I was sleeping when you wrote that. Now I gotta get ready for work.
>>56547045You got any time now before work?
>>56547046No because I'm slow as fuck. Now I'm at work. Fun :(Sorry anon. If anyone else wants it you can give it to them. I won't have time proper time before saturday
>>56545912You will trade me a level 10 and under authentic sinistea and thank me for my gts garbage
>>56546425No because, like every regulation, only 4 to 5 teams are viable and that itself makes teambuilding like stepping into meta quicksand
I should finish SV but I have fun just exploring.
>>56548071Don't forget to have fun, anon. Nobody is forcing you to finish the main questlines. There are entire games I technically never finished because just exploring and fucking around until I'd seen basically everything was more fun than rushing through the plot. The important thing is having a good time, not achieving arbitrary objectives.
Multis
>>56548832+1Multis will never happen though.
>>56548832>Hey kid, wanna yiff?
>>56548579Thank you anon that was wise and thought out. But yeah that's my plan but the only reason I feel forced to rush through the game is because I need access to the raids.
>>56549810You can join raids by code even if you haven't finished the game.
Anyone want a dreepy or should i just put it up in hopes someone gives me a walking wake for it?
>>56549857Oh yeah!, I forgot about that.>>56550125What do you want for a dreepy?
>>56550145Asking for a limited time distribution mon seems way too much so you can just have it. I got 6 off a sandwich I made to get a greavard and only two are worth keeping
>>56550125>wanting to trade a common for an event legendaryI wish you luck, anon.
>>56550125I'll give you a walking wake if I find your dreepy
>>56550159Well the only others I’m missing aren’t tradable on home, so that’s never happening lol and I’d rather just have shinies with my OT so whatever. Anyways I’ll be home in like 30 min so post a trade code if you want one
>>56550125>>56550241Didn't see it when I searched. Returning to vidya
>>56550251Do you NEED a walking wake or will a touch trade do? Whatever the case you seem like a cool anon so I can give you mine and just get another one next time they re-run it.
>>56550300Don’t worry about it I’m just slowly making progress for a living dex [spoilers]and hoping they bring back Volcanion and Hoopa in ZA[/spoiler]Come get a dreepy at 5555 in SV.
>>56550347Give me a second to get the game loaded up.
>>56550347Searching
>>56550347I'm a dummy I put in one to many 5, Researching.
>>56550376Do you want Walking Wake back?
>>56550347Thanks for the dreepy anon. And that Wake is legit as an anon from here helped me get it and by helped I mean they soloed it with a koridon.>>56550391Nah you had a good reason for wanting it so it would be happier with you than me besides I can always catch another when a re-run happens.
>>56550394Thanks a ton, man. Enjoy the little yellow jet plane, he’s cute.
>>56550396I will anon have a good day/night.
Another mon towards my dex completion.
In the next 10 or so minutes I'm around for trades
Still holding out hope for one more DLC. It won't happen but I want to believe.
>>56551764I want to get the ape from the book. I mean, who else are all the herba?It could fill the last "Momo"-story slot that has been missing.
>>56551764Get ready for Royal Scarlet and Opulent Violet on the Switch 2. Adding 100 additional returning Pokemon and two or three new exclusive mons!
>>56552131I hope we get that before S&V's 10 year anniversary >>56552406Do I get a good discount for owning the original already? If so then I may consider it. Especially if they optimize it to run far better than the switch version.
Do you guys have naming schemes for your pokemon or do you just keep them nameless and let your bond with them be the difference?
>>56553486I name them after bands and albums and songs. Also some are mythology based.
>>56553486I come up with nicknames randomly. I try to find one that makes me smile.
>>56551764I could see them releasing costume pikachu to tease contests returning in Kalos.The anime focused on contests and the PR studio in X/Y was probably them testing ideas that got scrapped then used what they had for the ORAS remakes.Interestingly there was even a contest background in Aloha but it was only used in the photobooth.
>>56555371>contests returning in Kalos???
>>56555388Anime pushed contests while the game only had a PR studio which would suggest it was a scrapped due to time constraints.Since Kalos is going to be limited to a city it'd make sense for them to give them another shot reworking them.
>>56555647Hopefully then put they twinkling star ribbon in those games
>>56555371I hope so costume pikachu is such a neat idea that I wish they introduced for more pokemon Like Raichu.
>>56556541God I hope Koridon and Miraidon have a shiny event soon.
TGIF now to relax and see if I can complete a bit more of my dex.
I really hope that I won't have to rely on GO for box shinies in the future anymore.
>>56558497I hope all current gamefreak employers die and get replaced and the new guys remove all shiny locks
>>56559519New guys grew up with the >Lol, just cheatand remove them completely from encounters.Shinies can only be obtained via micro transaction gacha system
>>56559519I just want them to improve greatly dying is the last resort for me.
>>56559594I hope not I hate time gated crap like this. I still don't have a shiny shield dog.
Not Wifi related but trade related, I'm going to get a Sapphire from the UK and I have a Platinum from the US (my other games are Spanish or Japanese). Will Pal Park work? Has anyone tried it? I'm finding contradictory information on the Internet.
>>56559519>all current Game Freak employees die>all games from gen 10 onwards are instead developed by the BDSP team
How can I get a Glastrier on Violet? I found the ghost counterpart, but I'm big on ice types. I heard it was something like multiplayer BBQs or some such.
>>56561163Group Blueberry Quests
>>56561169I've never done the multiplayer stuff before outside of the Tera raids. I hope it's not a pain in the ass.
>>56561189It's not that bad you just need 1-3 other people to do them with you
>>56561198That's a real shame. I have 0 other people.
>>56561209If you have online i can jump in and do some so you can get it.
>>56561220Yeah sure thing. I'll try to figure out how to do it. Is it that yellow area usually found on poke centers and the like?
>>56561227Yeah, make the lobby and i can join.
>>56561163>Snacksworth will give the player a treat that corresponds to a Legendary Pokémon for every 10 solo Blueberry Quests that the player has completed in a random order, up to 130. The game begins tracking the player's completed BBQs as soon as they complete their first one in the Terarium, even if it was prior to meeting Snacksworth. Most of the Pokémon available through solo quests are version-exclusive, with the exception of the legendary birds and Kubfu.>>For each additional group Blueberry Quest participated in by the player, up to 12, Snacksworth will give the player a treat that corresponds either to a Pokémon inherent to the opposite version or to a Pokémon from a smaller pool that can only be obtained through group quests. This allows the player to capture all Legendary Pokémon in one version. The player can accumulate treats from both solo and group quests at the same time. Glastrier is in the Scarlet pool so you can get it only from group quests on Violet.>>56561189It's kind of fun.
>>565612322133 is the link code.I think I did it right at least.
>>56561248I think thats the local code, you need to be online.
>>56561248No wait, that was the local version. Try TT4Y6X.
Oh, so it's legitimate overworld multiplayer. This is kind of cool.
>>56561267Yeah, we need to do the gold quests that appear after you do couple red quests.
>>56561278I'm on it.
>>56561289Theres at least 1. You could save before talking to the snack guy and reset if you dont get the Glastrier snack. We can do couple more. And i suggest to save quite frequently.
>>56561366You mean the snack is available on Violet version too?
>>56561406Yeah >>56561242
>>56561416I see, so you only need to do a finite amount of these quests to be able to find all the opposite version's special mons. That's pretty nice.
>>56561429Yeah, its this retarded sandwich one. Back out and make a new lobby so we dont have to do that.
>>56561446Alright. FJY1CT
>>56561446It's not hard...
>>56561499i hate it and im not doing it
>>56561499Yeah fuck that shit.
What is a "Ditto Block"?
>>56561618These things that spawn in those block structures
>>56561635
Thats three now, i think ill go to sleep. Just again make sure to save before talking to him and reset until you get the right snack.
>>56561830Thanks for the great help lad. God bless.
>>56561839No problem. These were really fun and fast when you had 4 people doing them at the launch.
>lost the file where i had my trip saved REEEEE
>>56561864Take that, tripfags"
>>56561918
>>56561830I'm not sure if savescumming will work. I've gotten the same snacks every time so far.
>>56562179It appears that switching my team around causes him to pick different snacks. Savescumming is saved.
>>56561849I tried to join, but you guys started super quick both times. Figured it'd be too bothersome to tell you to restart and wait for me, and I already have all snacks myself anyways, but there may be more people interested if you ask and wait a bit when you do stuff like this. On the other hand I do get it because the couple times I tried to do something like this nobody or only one person was interested.
>>56562704If you want to play, I'll open the lobby back up.
>>56562729Nah, it's fine, I already have all the snacks. Just figured I would help for a bit but I couldn't.
>>56561635Cute block. Would talk to in public and have passerby think that I'm going crazy.
>>56561021Reminds me of that one danny phantom movie.
Anyone have a Maushold 'Family of 3' raid they'd be willing to host? I've gone through 5 boxes of breeding and evolving, and haven't gotten a single one.It's the same for '3 segment' Dudunsparce, but they can't be found in raids.
>>56569610Not at hand right now but I could try looking around for one however it would take quite a bit of time to check all raids (tiers 3 and 4 in my map) or reroll if not found. If I find it I'll hold onto it and then I'll post here. You ok with it even if I take long to find them? Could even be tomorrow or later if my luck is bad
>>56570000All good, anon. I'll be free for the next 6 hours, then available 8 hours after that.
>>56570039Ok, then keep monitoring, maybe I'll hit it quickly. Booting my Switch right now
>>56570000Small correction, only 4 and 6 stars qualify for Mausholds. That will make things "a bit" quicker
>>56570039Found'em, tell me when you are ready so I can post the code
>>56571251I'm ready, anon.
>>56571399XBQG5JTera Poison
>>56571451Thanks, anon. Now I can go back to breeding Dunsparce.I'll save all the other MP pokemon until after I finish up the rest of the game and DLC.
>>56571512Good luck anon. If anyone else needs a Maushold (3) I can host again later, offer valid before 00:00 UTC today because of the forced reroll from Infernape's event ending
JUMP
Has anyone got a spare Calyrex they can trade to Scarlet/Violet? I'll trade you something good for it.
>>56576382What do you consider something good?
>>56577816Black Greninja?
>Already at page 8This is going to be a rough couple of days.
I'll recreate /shg/ when things calm down because I can't watch over 4 threads
Preemptive bump Will be gone for about an hour.
>>56580139I'll see your bump and raise you one more.
>>56580986Thank you.
God let this be over by tomorrow.
>>56583516Why? It's fun. We didn't even see half of half of it.
>>56584595I'll be honest with you I don't like having to babysit threads on fast boards and I don't really care about the leaks as most of the info turns out to either be useless or nothing. I would feel better about it if they didn't spam to the board or at least stayed in one general.
Another bump.

hey guys so what's the trick people has been using to get the DLCs for cheap from the JP eShop?i want both, the gen8 and gen9 ones
>>56591937iirc it is something about buying the codes online from Amazon JP? You could search the archive with those keywords
>>56591937>Set your Nintendo Account to Japanese (You don't have to change the language)>Get a Japanese amazon account>Clear it with your bank.>Buy the digital copy of the game>Redeem the codes>Profit (Because the yen is much weaker than the dollar.)This is what I did and after much headache I got everything I wanted I originally only wanted to DLC for S&V but turns out Japs get all the cool bundles so I was able to get the Splatoon 3 DLC as well. And I was able to get sword complete edition for around 40-50 bucks. so it was well worth it. But I was serious about it being a headache the first time though.
>>56592428I really need to buy the base game too?
>>56592754No. I only bought sword and it's DLC as complete set because of an error on my part I put too much money on my jap amazon account and couldn't get it back. But the base games of Splatoon 3 and Scarlet were both bought from the US eshop.
>>56591877>Cramoranthoyl fucking shit finally i can hutn this thing
Jump
Bruh I am flush with male Sprigatitos.
I still don't get how breeding works in SV.
>>56596423What do you not get
>>56596429Like how what determines what puts the eggs in the basket Do I only keep two mons in my team or does it only matter when I have the two mons in front of my party? Because I'm sure that my team has a high friendship so I should be getting eggs.
>>56596519You need egg power sandwich to make them.
>>56596583>You need egg power sandwich to make them.I just took the class that explained eggs the other day and I don't remember them saying that you needed a sandwich to make eggs, only that it would happen after a picnic. Genuinely thank you, I was starting to think that it was end game content.
>>56596690>>565966901 butter 1 banana 1 peanut butter makes egg power 2. Then you check the basket every 2-5 minutes until the 30 min power runs out and hatch them all. If not shiny reset game. Thats how its usually done.
>>56596765for shiny breeding that is.
>>56596765>>56596831Down to a science thank you once again anon. Hopefully I'll get something hard cut to 3k no shiny eggs.
>>56596765>>56596873Salty + sweet + lettuce gives egg 3, sparkling and title grass 3
>>56597134That's a good recipe I'll make the most of that thank you for a third time anon.
>>56597314Oh, this doesn’t matter if you’re resetting like the other guy said, but you can mass release in SV using Home
>>56597134Speaking of Herba, what's the best way for grinding it? I know of the boosted drop rates 'mons in the raids, but I would much rather not have to spend hours exclusively in the raids.I have heard of people who host hacked raids that provide astronomical amounts of Herba, but couldn't find anyone providing them. Are those the main method people use?
>>56597810There should still be some streamers doing that, just type herba raid in youtube or twitch. Other than that just do your daily 6 star raids and look for the better 5 star raids.
>>56597810There’s like 3-4 24/7 twitch streams with blissey/vaporeon raids. Just take an iron hands
>>56597428Very useful, I don't like to release my mons like that but I do appreciate having the option. Thank you anon.
>>56592881i see, thanks bro, gonna try it next week, SV's DLCs are still split lime SwSh as in, needing to pay for it twice if I have both versions? I plan to get Shield's and Violet's but if Violets works with Scarlet would be awesome
>>56597936>>56598110>TwitchI'm a retard for not checking for livestreams of this as I assumed they would just be taken down immediately. Thanks anons.
>>56596690Theoretically you don't, but Egg Power massively boosts the rate at which eggs are generated. During a Picnic (that is, with the table out, doesn't matter if you eat), at certain intervals there's a semi-random chance an egg may be generated in your picnic basket (on the opposite end of the table). You can just idle to get them, but you typically want Egg Power level 2 to speed up the process (the recipe is cheap and easy, see >>56596765).>>56596519Any two compatible mons in your party may breed. If you want a specific two to breed, have only those two in your party. Destiny Knot raises the number of IVs inherited, Everstone makes the child retain the regional form rather than switching to the 'normal' form.>>56597134Seems like a waste, Egg Power level 2 is good enough.
>>56601207Acktually, Egg Power 3 is better if you want to increase eggs acquired per hour. If you are concerned about wasting Herba just reset after cracking your eggs
>>56601207Right, one thing I forgot to add. Egg Moves can be passed without having to go through the whole breeding process. It now suffices to have a compatible mon hold a Mirror Herb and have empty move slots (so forget moves to make space for the moves you want to learn), and if any other Pokemon in your party has Egg Moves that mon could learn, they'll insta-learn them the moment the Picnic begins. (No need to eat a sandwich, you can just start a Picnic and end it again.)
>>56601352Anon, we're talking about a 43% boost in generation rate compared to Level 2 (one egg per 35 seconds vs one egg per 50 seconds in the worst case). If you're breeding shinies it makes sense, but if you just want to get a second Sprigatito it's a waste of herba you can use for better things like forcing spawns.
>>56593182Same, it's the only normal mon I don't have yet. The only other two I'm still missing are the two Blueberry paradox mons from Scarlet.
Live!!!!
>next 5* raid mons will be version exclusives (Stonjourner, Eiscue, Armarouge and Ceruledge) but you will be able to find the opposite version exclusive in your game (ceruledge in Scarlet and vice versa)Not as good as infinite blissey works, but certainly better than some of the past ones.
>>56601207>Everstone retains regional formThat's good to know.
>>56601207>During a Picnic (that is, with the table out, doesn't matter if you eat), at certain intervals there's a semi-random chance an egg may be generated in your picnic basket (on the opposite end of the table). You can just idle to get them, but you typically want Egg Power level 2 to speed up the processOk I see, I get it now I originally thought that it was time based but it seem that it was chance based instead. I don't know why they changed it to that but at least it makes sense to me now thank you for the explanation.
>2 accounts on GO>Last day for shiny shield dog>Can't find a raid after searching for a while>Find one with only 4 people>Want to leave but everyone is staying and since they maybe my last chance for dog I decide to stay as well.>Enter match everyone is gone and I lose the raidOf course they ran and knowing my luck that would have been the shiny dog.
>>56608015>2 accounts on GOIt's like you aren't even trying
Trying to get my Pokedex done, only missing Miraidon.Anybody wanna trade his extra for my Koraidon? Or just trade it back and forth so I can get the Pokedex entry?
>>56608357I tried to make more but they wouldn't let me so I'm stuck with the two
>>56606656>I don't know why they changed it to thatIt's always been like this, except previously it used steps instead of time. After a certain number of steps it would roll to see if an egg got generated, now at set intervals during a Picnic it rolls to see if an egg gets generated.
>>56610887Clicking more google accounts is free
>>56604590Live what?
>>56610966>Clicking more google accounts is freeTrue but I didn't want to connect to my main google and I couldn't switch it out without more hassle for myself.
>>56609562I can gift you a spare Miraidon from a sysbot, just wouldn't recommend to store at HOME if you are paranoid about it; or we can just touch trade it, your call
>>56613270From a sysbot? The fuck is that?
>>56613468It means it is hacked garbage not worth anything
>>56613546Uh, will it fuck up my savefile or online account thing? I really just want the pokedex entry so I can start proper shiny farming and online battes.
>>56613772If it fucked a savefile I wouldn't have my own savefile still working, right? Should be fine for online but again it is up to you if you don't want to use it other than the dex entry
>>56614596Well fuck it, lets just trade it back and forth so I got the entry, not like I actually wanna use the damn thing.I set up a union thingy, code is 0261.
>>56614776Oh wait this was local im an idiot FWC1D6 this should work
>>56614776Ok, give me some minutes to grab my Switch
>>56614842>>56614842Thanks bro, much appreciated!
>>56615014Enjoy your Shiny Charm
No more locked shinys please.
Evolve
MULTIS FUCKING WHEN! AHHHHJHHH!
Anyone with Scarlet feel like doing a base game union circle?I've just finished Violet and want to finish up my pokedex by catching the past paradox mons and a blaze breed Tauros.I'm also happy to help anyone hunt down Violet exclusives, but I haven't yet done enough raids to unlock any herba for tier 3 sandwiches.I also haven't done a union circle before, but from what I read the game makes it so you can't see each other while in area zero? If that's the case, then I guess we'd need to reply here to sort out where to be in the same place to get the right mons spawning in for us both?I'll be free in 30 minutes, and will be available to do it at any point in the next 6 hours.
>>56619607give me a few mins and I can help you out
Haven't touched this game since the last monotype tourney. Are the ranked ladders/seasons still going on? Considering trying to get some games in if that's the case.
>>56619811all good, I'm still busy for another 10 minutes.>>56619919According to a quick google, yes they're still doing ranked.https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/events/ranked-battles-season-23/
>>56620112sorry bro, cant find my copy of Scarlet anywhere, probably left it in mu office, but Im mot sure
>>56620818Don't worry about it. I'm happy to chill and wait to see if another anon with Scarlet wants to help out.
Is there anyway to transfer a saved outbreak from one file to the next? I still have one of the even outbreaks with increased shiny odds so that's why I'm asking.
>>56621144No
>>56620856I'm also playing Violet, but I wanted to know if you'd connect with me so I can evolve my Finizen.
>>56622026Sure, I need to evolve mine as well. Post a code and I'll jump in.
>>56620856I can help in a bit. 10 mins or so.
>>5662219055QH2M
>>56622191Glad to hear. Thanks in advance, anon.
>>56622190Thanks for the help lad.
>>56622237Ok im ready, BMVW5L
>>56622488I want to join too, just for shiggles.
>>56622488ok then, what's the plan and order?
>>56622539Ill find the Tauros first and then ill talk you through the Paradoxes. Just try not to stay too close so i can spawn my versions
>>56622575ok then.
>>56622575I've never even seen the water one on my own version before.
>>56622714you need to make or buy a 'water up' sandwich, and they only show up in herds of 5 (of which 4 are the normal combat variety).
>>56622714got a fire one here
>>56622751thanks, anon.
>>56622747I gotcha. Can I get a fire one too while we're in this lobby?
>>56622792Sure, ill find second one
>>56622816Thanks a lot for the help.
heres second one
>>56622751>>56622783Caught. I'll wait at zero gate until it's time to move on.
This fire one looks cool as fuark.
>>56622865Ok now the paradoxes. Ill just call you when i find one and tell you where to go. Like now teleport to station 2 and go left
>>56622984fighting the brute bonnet now.
>>56623032it killed itself with confusion. FFS
Since you guys busy in area zero, can you breed paradox pokemon? I want a good Roaring Moon but the union circle shit is too cancer for me to bother.
>>56623081No, I don't think it's possible. It doesn't matter though, since you can turn any mon, no matter how shit, into a good one with mints, hyper training, and stat items.
>>56623081You cant.>>56623078Teleport to station 3 and go straight to the cave
>>56623134got a scream tail.
>>56623134Then go further into the cave theres brute bonnet and great tusk here
>>56623191Ok, I got the bonnet and the other guy got the tusk.
>>56623298go to station 4 and to the right
>>56623298I spotted another tusk at the last research station.
>>56623348>>56623362Got the tusk
>>56623412tp to station 2 and go left up the rocky cliff
>>56623448up the path is another slither wing for the onewho missed it
>>56623448Got the slither wing. I only need a flutter mane, a sandy shock and a roaring moon.
>>56623612Slither Wing is my favorite. I managed to get one right after the game released from one of my friends. He's been a mainstay in my party too.
back to rocky cliff heres shocks
>>56623653Nice. I've been casually trying to get a shiny Cyclazar to replace the one that's been on my team all game.>>56623653got it.
at the roaring moon/valiant cave, heres flutter mane
>>56623796I'll try to find it.
>>56623796and roaring moon
>>56623796accidentally killed the flutter mane with a crit (I hate ghost types. I can't false swipe them). Fighting the roaring moon now.
>>56623796>>56623883How do you get to this cave anyway?
>>56623883another mane at the entrance
>>56623909station 3, go to left until you see big tree and rocks
>>56623909tp to research base 3, exit, turn left, go towards the tree and if you look to your left there'll be a rock formation with a small gap leading to the cave.
>>56623933These tiny wild mons with their giant hitboxes are really pissing me off.
>>56623883>>56623913got both. Thanks for all the help anon. Anything I can do for you to help out?The roaring moon fight was sad. It did nothing but dragon dance and zen headbutt against my Kingambit. That poor, stupid thing.
>>56624080No problem. I got both versions so i dont really need anything. Happy to help.
>>56624106Alright then, I'll head off then and start the DLC.I can wait another couple of days to do an Armarouge raid and 100% my Paldea pokedex.Thanks for hosting, anon.
>>56624160Have fun.
>>56624160Armarouge looks kind of cool.
Does the other guy still need any of the paradoxes?
>>56624203I'm still missing Roaring Moon I think.
>>56624223spawned one
>>56624235The retard burned itself to death.
>>56624309got one
>>56624504its flying in the air wtf
>>56624504>>56624539Where exactly is he?
>>56624568back left from the entrance
>>56624583all way to the wall
>>56624625This time I brought my Scizor.
This thing is a piece of shit to try and capture. What is the catch rate on this thing?
>>56624918Only little bit worse than legandaries.
>>56624968Well, thanks for helping me catch those paradox mons and that fire bull. I managed to catch Scream Tail in a dream ball too.
>>56625010Happy to help.
>>56625022Hey, you want to do some BBQs while we're still in a lobby?
>>56625043Sorry its almost 6am time to sleep for me.
>>56625063Oh shit, sorry to keep you up so long. Thanks again.
Just a quick question to gauges interest. Should I make the new thread or should we just wait until things calm down to remake? I don't want to make the thread just for everyone to be too burnt out or busy to bump it.
>>56625183I'm up to play if you are.
>>56625183I think waiting a day would be best. Hopefully the shitstorm has died down a little bit by then, though I feel like there'll be constant shitposting until GF start showing off Z-A stuff or some other company fucks up enough to shift the focus away from them I'm hoping for Ubisoft to have ANOTHER catastrophic fuckup with the upcoming Ass Creed game, like having their Jap dub be voiced by Chinks or something. It wouldn't even be THAT far fetched because the Japs discovered that the game's localisation and historical accuracy team work out of China.
>>56623883Your Soak mon anon?
>>56625613>>56625467Since it's a tie I guess I'll have to break it. I'll give it a day of rest if nothing else drops before creating the new thread. I already updated the OP so when I do make the new thread everything will be good to go. Of course if someone else made the OP I couldn't stop them as this a general but I'm just giving my 2cents in what I think should happen.
>>56625869I didn't know it existed until now, because I skipped a few gens. Looking through the list of mons that can get it, the only one I actually used in a team was the Sobble line and I probably just ignored the move when it appeared since I didn't focus on capturing mons until a couple of months ago when I decided to try and make a living dex.I also capture everything in normal or luxury balls. It would've been nice to know this move (and any other potential ones to make catching easier aside from status moves and false swipe) existed beforehand.
>>56626007Yawn is a good one thanks to its 100 accuracy.
