In other news, Shiny Meloetta is here. You have to wonder if this was an intended distraction, maintenance was planned 2 days ago.

Blizzard haters have genuinely brainrotted the entire internet. Literally the moment anything notable happens after a controversy you get retards saying "WOW THEY'RE TRYING TO DISTRACT YOU FROM THE THING THAT HAPPENED RECENTLY".

>>56652648
Something as big as a shiny legendary/mythical distro is always tied to some kind of event for promotion purposes, like a Presents or trailer. Can't deny it's a bit suspicious.

your stupidity is distracting for sure.

>First up, Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet!
>>>first up
Methinks the SwSh one is gonna be a Shiny Keldeo since thay was also the """""""free""""""" Mythical they let you catch in the second DLC there.
Not sure what the others could be. Mew seems a bit too safe for LGPE, maybe Melmetal? LA and BDSP, too. Though after the stories of Shiny Manaphy it'd be fucking funny.

RETARD PROOF INFO

For HOME registration:

1. The Mon has to be sent to HOME. Your game and the HOME all are not synchronized. If you catch something in SV and evolve it before sending it to HOME, then HOME will only register the evolved for because that’s all it saw.
2. The Mon has to be caught in the game that the dex is from. Your living pokedex from Gen 6 does not count.
Ex. The “Sinnoh Pokedex” in HOME does not mean it can be from DPPt or PLA, it means BDSP and BDSP only. Consider the Dex names in HOME to be synchronous with the origin marks on a pokemon.

>So does this means I have to catch these game specific mons all over even thought I already have them from other games?
Yes and they’ve been telling you this for a long time. Yes that means that Dialga and Palkia have to be from BDSP to be registered in the Sinnoh Dex.

>Tips
1. Pray your mon can go to SV, catch something, bring it there and use all the EXP candies you’ve accumulated throughout the years. You do have a shit ton of candies, right?
2. For rare mons like babies you can just bring over an evolved versions and breed.

Happy hunting

This image says they are doing special gifts for all dexs but starting with a shiny melo for SV
Chances of more like (unreleased shinies) since they want Eyes away from leaks and more back into the games they have out?
>>
>>56653425
People that are just getting to this now are going to have a fucking awful time trying to get the exclusive legendaries in Scarlet/Violet now that there's an influx of people who need them and not a chance in hell that rare shit like Purugly/Glameow/shinies even/Crabominable are super available post Sword/Shield
t. traded up successfully from Purugly to Zacian and then from Zacian to Miraidon when Scarlet was released for HOME support
>>
>>56653425
Will add, you can also send trade evolutions to PLA and use the items there to evolve them without bothering to trade, since their origin mark doesn't change it'll give you credit for the evolved one in their game of origin when you trade it back.

And on a PLA specific note, completing its dex in HOME requires doing all the save bonus events as Darkrai and Shaymin both count.

Yeah they will give rewards for the others as well. This is the first. I doubt they will ever do anything for Pokemon GO because that dex is going to keep expanding as the main series expands, and some things still can't be transferred like Spinda.

I still need to finish Let's Go but I hate those games so much.
>>
>>56652797
iirc you have to catch (this example: SV), send it to HOME's boxes (with your Switch version), open the National Dex in your HOME Switch ver. and close HOME. If possible let it also backup your save to the NSO cloud, then you open up mobile HOME

If its met location is Paldea and you don't have a home tracker on it when you inject it into that game, Home won't allow it back in meaning it is stuck in Paldea until you inject it to the next game up. I can't unlock mine until tomorrow but once i have it i'll know if this is this case it might not be.
Native Home injections that don't use SwSh as the foundation and GO Pokemon that do this have trouble the most but mixed results in my experince

Buy 4 copies of Pokemon Ranger with eggs and get them all. Get two copies of Gen 4+ 2 DS. Trade eggs to game 1, save before all hatch. If not shiny trade to game 2 and repeat. If not shiny erase game 1 file, play till you can trade, Hatch eggs. Trade back and forth deleting files until shiny.

That's only a problem for pokemon that aren't from the same games. For example
>Transfering a pokemon from SWSH to SV. You need a code that home generates for that pokemon. So you can't just inject that pokemon
>Same thing with pokemon from bank, they all need a code generated by home
If it's a pokemon from the same game then it's fine because home expect you to trade it locally or via WiFi. This pokemon you can inject because it doesn't need a home code, it will receive a code when you deposit it on home though.
>>
>>56656812
>getting a second set of the Violet equivalents to trade permanently would require playing through the main game and both DLCs and complete 75% of both DLCs pokedexes again
This is not as hard as you think. Make a second profile on your Switch and start a new save, Home is compatible with multiple profiles and you can transfer Pokemon between them. Then transfer your starter to your main profile and max level it + EV train etc and transfer it back. Then steamroll through the basegame to complete it, there should be no challenge whatsoever.
Once you reach Kitakami you don't have to do anything in the game whatsoever. Instead transfer over your SV living dex from your main profile to your second one, this will clear Perrin's requirement and let you do the Bloodmoon Beast hunt. Complete that and she'll move to Blueberry, which is also unlocked for you here.
Go to Blueberry, enter the Terarium, and instantly satisfy Perrin's dex requirement with your transfered living dex. She'll show you the pictures for the DLC paradoxes, which then become available in Area Zero. Catch them and transfer everything back.

You don't need to complete the Teal Mask or Indigo Disk. Just base SV.
>>
>>56658461
>Then transfer your starter to your main profile and max level it + EV train etc and transfer it back.
Doesn't that make it not obey you in SV?
>>
So let me get this straight if I already have the returning Pokémon for SV dexes from older games, it doesn't count because I didn't catch them -in- SV and then place into home? That is retarded
>>
>>56658481
Obedience rules were changed, now it's caught level that determines badge obedience, not current level. Your starter starts at level 5, so long as your OT and SID match, it will always obey you.
>>
>>56658534
Their game of origin has to be SV. You can get them from trades, but they must originate from Scarlet or Violet in the first place.
>>
>>56658553
That's still dumb though because SV themselves count Pokémon you brought up from older games.
>>
>>56658576
Sure, but I don't make the rules. I'm just telling you how it works.
>>
Is this an event?
>>
>>56658540
I remember helping my friend with a trade evo when SV released and once I traded it back it wouldn't obey him, even though it was fine before. I don't know if it's different with Home but trading seemed to trigger the game to check the current trade obtained level instead of the original one.
>>
>>56658605
It was, is already over

>>56658605
No it's a permanent thing, like how completing the Home National Dex earns you the Pokeball-colored Magearna. Same tier of reward.

The funniest outrage regarding this is people that are mad that the "Have to catch them all" like it isn't the literal tagline of the franchise.

And then there's the folks that are mad they have to catch them all AGAIN, from a specific game, as if there's anything else to do besides get bored of battling.

no, i am aware of that, like i said, it's not hard to catch them again/breed transfer mons but if every evolution was level up or at worst stone evo than I wouldn't complain. But fuck needing to trade mons all over again.

Sure raids exist but those piss me off because I can't tell what they are from the map. They need to seriously patch that

I got most of my transfer raidmons from the online raid menu from other people hosting raids instead. 5-star raids are brainlessly easy, 6-star raids just need a dedicated type advantage. Choose a time when there's no raid event so you don't get those clogging up the menu.

>Bank scanned your save data to fill in its Dex
>Home requires you to manually transfer them in
Yeah I get that they want to ensure you caught them in that specific game, but there has to be ways around that. Like if SV's in-game Pokédex had a flag whether a given entry was completed with a mon with the Paldea origin mark, and then could pass on that data to Home. Instead of asking everyone to breed their starters because Home needs to see a Floragato you evolved back at release.
>>
>>56659590
this is the most bullshit part, it almost requires a living dex from you. Sure you can transfer between evolutions but this is extra steps
>>
>>56659590
Home has to see the Pokemon because Home is what assigns a Home tracker. That's how it can tell. Game of origin is another immutable value that Home uses to flag illegitimate Pokemon.
>>
>>56658924
Didn't you learn anything from the mew pokeball controller situation. Paywalling mons is how they do things now. Go buy all the shitty latest games and all the overpriced dlc if you want that one mon.

because they aren't mythicals. it's that simple. is it retarded that they are limited distributions? absolutely. but distribution does not determine status, because there are mythicals that can be obtained normally in a game like keldeo and deoxys
>>
>>56660397
and the only reason they aren't mythicals is because gamefreak is incredibly autistic and retarded. they're event legendaries in their debut gen that aren't required to complete the dex. if not that, then what do you define mythical as? just a random pokemon classified as such?

Look man, i'm not making the rules.
If it's a mythical by gamefreaks standards, its a mythical. It's literally in the games code. What I classify it as means jack shit. The most consistent answer is they sit at the tail (or head in victini's case) end of the dex, can't breed (not counting manaphy, cuz it doesn't make a manaphy) and are banned from online.

Other than that, it's up to the company that makes the games. I could call male combee a legendary, but if it isn't coded as such, it doesn't matter

scyther can evolve into scizor (a pokemon created the death of the franchise during gen 5) in paldea. yet he can’t evolve into kleavor (a pokemon created after the death of the franchise) in paldea. funny how that work.

Not too bad, this seems like it'll be a fun collectathon to get through this week I have off and then afterwards I might try doing it with the other Home compatible games since they said the other games will get similar event mons.

Maybe a living dex run of BDSP would be cool.

All I see is a whiny bitch trying to claim her shitty low-iq take on the kiddy series she's still clearly too stupid to understand somehow trumps the devs' own intentions with their series. Amazing cunts like you can never counter the direct argument, just run and hide and squeal.

Manaphy already breaks this "rule". It was a permanent capture. Sure it needed a different game, but it was permanent. Jirachi and Magearna too.
>>
>>56661051
Jirachi is only "permanent" in Europe unless you really want to count a preorder bonus.
>>
>>56653471
They didn't say all dexes, just that there would be more.

I think LGPE and SwSh are too old by this point, and BDSP is... BDSP. They will do one for PLA and then PLZ-A eventually.

Is this a timed event?
>>
>>56660921
BST. Mythicals get 600, IL/WW have 590.
You know, because Game Freak never intended them to be considered mythicals, just fucking event raids to spam every so often.
>>
>>56661101
Whatever, jirachi might have been a stretch, but magearna and manaphy are still valid. The point is they don't have set rules like anon was saying

>>56661133
>you can't get them in a fresh savefile right away

alright now you are just moving goalposts. There are regular mons you cant get in a fresh save file, let alone one save file at all. The point was about being event locked, which several mythicals aren't even in their debut gen
>>
>>56661166
It's permanent

The OT is a reference to today's date however, and if you care about these things the caught dates not matching that is kinda awkward
>>
>>56661166
No mention of it being timed in the announcement and previous similar events like Original Color Magearna aren't time limited, so most likely no.
>>
>>56661167
plenty of mythicals have bsts over 600. phione has 480 and it's still considered mythical.
>>56661195
but they're still available natively in the game, not requiring external means to get them
>>
>>56661269
Yes, it's not hard and fast, Meltan has 300.
Difference between they and WW/IL is WW/IL weren't claimed to be mythicals, Phione, Meltan and the other mythical non-600's are still considered mythicals.
Doesn't matter how autistic you are kid, Game Freak are moreso and they're always going to win.

The same could be said of literally any event ever and it's a pointless question because the answer is always individual preference on how to play. If you don't care to play within "legitimate" rules, then feel free to do that. If you do, then it's a goal to go for in game. Up to you. Same with the literal thousands of other times people have said this exact same sentiment.

>>56661965
Are you implying I haven't already? There's a literal button in PKHeX to generate a living dex. Just do a batch edit to rando the right info, batch edit to give all of them your Trainer handle, hatched from eggs to not worry about version differences, about 7-ish minutes of "work".

I am playing, you just don't seem to like my method of play, I don't like your method of play. Plus, just means I can stop playing sooner and do something else. Nothing wrong with 30 good hours of honest play, then spending an additional 5 fucking with the game before going over to something else. Sounds like you're boring for thinking there's only one method of play.
>>
>>56662041
I'm not against cheating because I still do it myself, but where's the fun in giving yourself a living dex?
>>
>>56662095
>I am playing
Sure, for all of 7 minutes. And then another 30 hours of ennui cause you 'beat' the game in less time than it takes for other people to make a character.

>Plus, just means I can stop playing sooner and do something else.
Why are you even here if you don't like playing the games this much? Just go to /v/ already
>>
>>56662098
I don't see the fun of obtaining a living dex if the time required breaks past the double digits. I do like Pokemon, unironically, but like I said, if I wanted to grind, I'd play Runescape. Meloetta isn't worth that kind of grind, but I still want it, so what are you going to do other than bitch about it? Going to be real honest, if you honestly enjoy that grind of spending double digit hours mindlessly catching mons, more power my dude, but fuck that.

I happily don't suffer from addiction. I like playing the games, get a solid 30+ hours, sometimes 20, which 20 is a bit light, but I do not understand how people can put100 hours and think that's a good thing. That is a completely different conversation about gaming as a whole. The few times I have 100+ hours in a single game is because I played the game multiple times over the course of years, and that's not really a feather in my cap I would brag about.
>>
>>56662218
>I happily don't suffer from addiction.

>>
>>56662124
Fair enough. I get where you're coming from because there's no way I'm going to spend hours with GF's shitty broken online raid system to get stuff like herbs or deal with RNG for special balls when I can just pkhex them in.
Most of my enjoyment with Pokemon now unironically is recatching everything each game, but I'm a legitimate autist.
>>
How am I supposed to get both boxlizards and other one-off exclusives in there without trickery or buying two games?
>>
>>56662287
Start a new save on a second profile and speedrun to Area Zero to get the second lizard, then transfer it back to your main profile and trade it for the other one. Hope you have Scarlet, because Koraidons are FAR rarer than Miraidons, and thus more valuable.
>>
>>56662280
>Most of my enjoyment with Pokemon now unironically is recatching everything each game, but I'm a legitimate autist.
That's fair. Sad thing is I keep using Runescape cause that was my addiction for awhile a decade ago. Kind of why I got into this mindset of 30 hours and then move onto something else. Catching the mons just seems like MMO bullshit kind of grinding and too many people got baited into it by a successful 90's slogan. I can't deny that what I find to be pure tedium is legit fun for others, so I respect that.

You don't have to do it. You don't have to get the shiny Meloetta. That's why it's a Home challenge.
