What if we kept the cock slut trainer posting in the cock slut trainer posting thread
>>58474287ma'am, this is a Mawile.
>>58474287How about you suck my cock, slut?
For bros playing in emulators, Latest Ryujinx Canary now allows for local play so we can trade and most likely play local battles just fine. I just tested it, no issues.
They did zone 13 so dirty. It’s literally just a hallway
>^>^>x>?>ball>breaks free>vanishes>ko>ball>breaks freeI hate this capture system so much.
>>58474332dusk ball never fails me
>>58474312how do you do itttttttttt
bros...
>>58474347Where?
>>58474343Be sure to be in latest Canary build and configure your shit like pic related. In game go to the online menu and select the local modes. I have tested trade and it works. You need to pick enter a pass for local trades to pair with people using the same pass. For local battles you can either host (it will automatically create a pass for the room) or join (you need to enter the given pass to enter the room)
>>58474363i can trade with myself but i tried it with a buddy and we couldn't connect
>>58474367are you on the same version of the game, same firmware and all that? I traded with a chinese dude just some minutes ago
>>58474371we both got the 1.0.1 update off nxbrew and we both got ryubing 1.3.179
>>58474338I have untreated balltism.
>>58474361loverslab
>>58474375what about firmware version on the emulator? afaik not being on the same firmware can lead to pairing issues
>emulatorkeks
>>58474381hmm really? i'm pretty sure we both got 20.5.0 but i could ask him to update the firmware
>>58474385yes, it is a common cause of issues.
>>58474264Why is the city so small? Why can't i go out to the wide world? LET ME OUT!
>>58474440It's not that small.
>>58474264I'm really enjoying this game bros, it's just what I needed. Never though I'd enjoy Pokemon again after SwSh but PLA, SV and ZA have brought me back
>>58474440me when i play gens 1-8
>>58474363Holy based thank you
which of these chuds should i use for story mode
My team is assembled now I need fashion, what store sells those trenchcoats I'm seeing?
Would you wish Wild Zone 17 on your worst enemy?
>>58474371Wait you can trade and battle random people online too?
>>58474528just get a better one
>>58474552What's wild zone 17? I haven't gotten that far yet, but I'm sure me and my partner can handle it!
How do I get it to rain
>>58474562farming things is annoying i'm just looking through the ones i caught
>>58474599just spam the bench
Does Dedenne have a fixed/guaranteed spawn anywhere, I want to try and get a super small one

>>58474552Honestly no. No idea what they were thinking.>>58474576>He does know
>>58474615I think I'd rather waste my money than know I made an awful post like yours.
>>58474615>Implying I hacked my Switch
shiny hunting Amaura has not been fruitful
Still no PKHex?
>>58474627>I think I'd rather waste my money than know I [Insert complete non-argument] lol
Is the Infinite Royale opponents all random or is there a set order BEFORE it goes into random mode?
It's funny how indians think 70 dollars is alot of money.
>>58474661The program updates whenever I feel like it.
Shit games
>>58474661what do you need pkhex for
>>58474670I wasn't making an argument, no shit. You might be mentally impaired.
>4675>it must be the heckin pajeets calling out my poor financial decisions like my wife's boyfriend once said....A whole month worth of groceries>>>a poorly made budget game that I can emulate for free
Oh look one got offended
>>58474684Not as mentally impaired as your sheer amount of autism to actually buy this slop, lmao.
>saar your groceriesr saarlmao at poorfags
>>58474691ikr? crazy how angry some weirdos get when you emulate stuff....
>>58474683Scizor, Aromatisse, and Slurpuff to complete the Pokedex. I have like 60 hours in the game and just wanna finish it completely.
>>58474661I hope he won’t turn faggot and start morale stand on muh cheating bullshit>>58474683Let’s see:> Bottle caps because the slimy fucks have gutted the drop rate significantly> Apricon balls because fuck em and their scarce tactics> any extremely expensive items or those “ one per save file” bullshit
>>58474675Third worlders living on 20 cents a day posting on cheap refurbished tablets/smart phones are still drawn to online video game discussion for some reason I'd feel bad for them if they weren't all annoying and retarded
>>58474691>meltdown over piracy of a baby gametendies do be like that
>>5847455217 ain't that bad, especially if you have surf. It's kinda funny sneaking up on them and just watching like 7 pyroars wobbling around while their boyfriend throws a hissy fit
>>58474693>saar your groceriesr saarThis but unironically. But also bought ZA since its peak. Spend responsibly bros
>>58474332If you're okay with save scumming, and as long as you make sure you're clear of other pokemon when you KO the one you want, you can save during the dizzy period after you knock them out to try as many times as you need.
Having to do the infinite royale a billion times to unlock everything post game sucks ass. People are seriously mad the game didn't make them do this 26 times during the story?
>>58474701>I hope he won’t turn faggot and start morale stand on muh cheating bullshitHe already hates piracy so I wouldn't be surprised if he does
>>58474687Hilarious how zoomers and autists unironically think not spending money on literal liquid diarrhea means you're a poorfag.
>>58474707There's a whole emulator general so I don't know why you ask shit here
>>58474720Why the fuck do you care what people spend THEIR money on?
>>58474720No but bringing up you do it every chance you get is usually a sign you are.
>pajeet instantly thinks about liquid shitlmao
I have been using tradebots to trade me gold bottle caps
>>58474541I can't remember the exact one, but there's only like 5 store group locations so it shouldn't take to long to find
>>58474730You literalyl can't fucking do that. That's a crime.
>>58474693Oy vey!
>>58474720Yup, absolutely mindbroke em.
>>58474739Jewdaddies rule the world albeithowever.
>>58474727I don't. It's a shit game because it's shit not because it's expensive.It's usually retarded shills who get defensive and start calling people poor because they can't handle the criticism of the favorite corporations.
>shit shit shit shit its shit!!!>still playing it doePoorfag absolutely FUMIN'
>>58474752>it's a shit game because it's shitWhat about it is shit? I'm having fun.
>>58474727Why are you so sensitive about people making fun of your financial decisions? Is it too close to the truth?
>>58474730Where do I find a ZA one?
why do shitposters have to come here when the rest of the board is shitposting already
>>58474757Trvth fellow redditor, we shall consoom as much as we please.
>>58474769They see us having fun with the game, and they absolutely hate that.
>>58474769third worlders can't afford videogames so annoying people on the internet is their hobby
shut up
>>58474763I'm not. I didn't even buy the game, retard. I just think it's very autistic to pocket watch someone because they bought something you don't like.
Is there a good way to guarantee alpha spawns of the starters in zone 20? Also, what Pokémon can spawn under the tower?
>>58474782>Laughing at an autist buying garbage is pocket watchinglol, somebody is big mad.
>>58474786Just run circles until alpha spawns. And i think every mon can spawn under the tower. Not 100% sure about Steelix or Scizor though.
>>58474790Uh huh. Are you going to actually talk about the game or are you going to continue shitposting like an autist?
>>58474769It's 4chan culture, you filthy Redditor
>make fun of a retard seething about emulating the game>Instant seething and meltdowns right afterThis is the autism power of tendies.
>the holovator guy with the four beldums eventually evolves them into two metangs and one metagross
>>58474825You both are autistic, now fuck off.
>>58474825NOOOOOOO!!!! You must be a heckin loyal pay piggy consoomer like meeeee you chud!
>>58474646You bought a switch kek
>>58474856Stole a Switch 2. Killed my elderly neighbour and invaded her house for free wifi and welfare checks.
>>58474825But anon! Think about the poor goyimfreak employees that spent a whopping 5 minutes texturing and modeling the buildings!
Indian got real mad after he got called a poorfag.
>>58474856And? So did like 150+ million other people?
When do you get access again to the sewers?After finishing the story segment there, the water's up again and I don't get the option to target the statue to freeze it again.
>>58474868Theres a quest there
After I catch Drampa how much of the game will I be able to enjoy? Please no major spoilers.
>>58474825>>58474847>>58474862>>58474864Oh my God, shut the fuck up already. Have your autistic argument literally anywhere else and let us talk about the game. All of your retarded posts are clogging this place up.
how
>>58474868East of Bleu Plaze (south of wild zone 5) there should be a side quest which will give you a new entrance to the sewers
>>58474888Find a way anon
>>58474888Sewers
>>58474879Shut the fuck up and go back to Redd*it where no one can think for themselves and love the current things
>>58474888nevermind i'm dumb
>>58474897Trying too hard to fit in, Ranjeesh.
>>58474897I don't give a fuck if you hate the game or not. The purpose of the thread is to actually PLAY the fucking game, ask questions, and discuss what happens IN THE GAME. Your bitching isn't any of that. Fuck off.

now that i've beat the game i'm gonna complete the dex. i still don't have a goomy line and getting all the eeveelutions will probably be annoying. i also need to get all the mega stones so that will be a lot of infinite royaleing... this game is fun
>>58474977Completing the dex is easy when you can keep resetting the 2 alphas in zone 20 for a lot of annoying evolutions. The only truly bullshit part of the endgame is earning the shiny charm.
Why the hell did abilities get cut from ZA? Like 95% of them would of worked exactly the same even with the new battle system. a ton of mons are gimped because of this.
>>58475031less work
Nice my emulator crashes during the final cutscene
Why are all of Ivor's disciples girls
I need a party critique or suggestion.I’m running>Emboar>Scizor>Gengar>Ampharos>Sharpedo>KrookodilWhat would you suggest to replqce ampharos or Emboar with?I’ve a theme team of neerdowells/pokemon or what a punk would use or generally mean looking pokemon.Currently getting fucked by shit like Hawlucha.I need something to take care of fighting.
>>58475175mawile?
>>58475180I already got ghost and steel taken care of.I’d personally like some type coverage. A new electric or psychic would be nice. I know I can teach gengar thunderbolt so maybe not an electric.
>>58475188maybe manectric then?
>>58475175Mawile or Tyrantrum could work for you. But really, you should be able to blitz Fighting types with Gengar, it should have coverage for it.
>>58475175>>58475188There aren't a ton of "mean-looking" psychic types unless you're lowering the bar to stuff like Galarian Slowking.
Really need a Gyarados counter but I feel like none of the Electric types in this game do the job.
>>58475190Sorry I was thinking of fucking Exacadrill that kicked my ass yesterday.The old man’s mega excadrill nearly swept my whole team.
>>58475175>Gengar>Ampharos>SharpedoTake them off and make an all red team
>>58475189True but I genuinely think Magnectrix is fucking lame and boring.
>>58475203Jolteon, Manetric, Eelektross, Emolga, Heliolisk. Might as well just throw Thunderbolt on your special sweeper instead of relying on a dedicated Electric Pokemon if all you care about is Gyarados, though.
>>58475203Use a Pokemon with Freeze-Dry
>>58475209Gengar and Sharpedo are my goats though.I know Sharpedo might fall off later cause he’s a glass canon but that dude is FAST
>>58475203gyarados is a menace. best you can do is run dedenne with protect and parabolic charge.
>>58475236The new combat system ends up rewarding bulk more than speed. Not saying you should get rid of Sharpedo, just worth mentioning.
>>58475260I know I’ve heard that the end game is a slugfest and defense and ranged attacks will be better.It’s a shame cause I love glass cannons as you can tell from my love of scizor
>>58475173girls love himbos
>>58475268It's not like you can't use them all the way to the end, the game isn't that hard. Just hard facts that something like Barbaracle or Gyarados is gonna outperform Sharpedo just by being harder to kill. But that hardly matters, it's not like Revives are hard to get.
I'm guessing Dragonite, Starmie and Tyranitar are the last set of rogue megas but I don't want the game to end yet so I've been doing shit like shiny hunting, training all of my pokemon at least to level 60 and buying clothes
Phantom Force might be the worst move in this game, it has never hit me once even when I'm not trying to dodge it
>>58475209Name 6 viable red pokemon with full type coverage
will you fuck off
>>58475349Rock Slide is also up there, you can very calmly walk out of the way without it hitting you.>>58475353TalonflameScolipedeMedichamKrookodileScizorTyrantrumShouldn't have any problems with this team. Medicham and Scizor alone cover every type you could possibly need.
>>58475311>training all of my pokemon at least to level 60my pokemon are all in the 70s and i'm not even close to beating the game right now
>>58475392it's the same for me, i explored and caught stuff ASAP and my leveling just snowballed, feels like i've been ten levels higher than everything else for the entire game. not that i mind, i just think it's funny it happened by accident.
>>58475392I've been rotating my team A LOT, I don't keep the same team for more than one battle and I used a different mega for each rogue mega
Once a shiny is spawned can you reroll aspects of it, like sex and Alpha? Or are shinies locked in once they appear
>>58475420Its locked
my fuarking hero
>>58475423danke
where's the metal coat?
>>58475530near the end of the gamejust ask your trade partner to supply it themselves, it costs like 5k pokedollars
>>58474363is it in "nearby players"?
Just realized I went through the entire game without actually using Plus Moves properly. Thought the game was easy as is so can’t imagine how it would be with them
Has anyone caught an XS or non-alpha XL sized pokemon?
>>58475530Should be a quest near wild zone 17 to get a skarmory feather. Other way is buying as many as you want in post game.
>>58475770My first Mareep was XS
>>58475698If you are using megas then you are automatically spamming plus moves anyway.
>>58475698No point really bothering with them especially if your Pokemon is a mega. It's mostly just to make using non-mega Pokemon viable in the boss battles
Can anyone who has finished the game trade me a metal coat? I want to play the game with my favorite mon scizor.please
>>58474687>$75>Entire month of groceries Not beating the 3rdy claim anon. Beef is $4-6 a pound alone. Fucking chicken thighs with skin skill is $1.5-2
>>58475442>Finished the game>Watch westers playthrough>He sits in silence for about 30 seconds after seeing the trade>Uhhhh BASED?>proceeds to use Bois to sweep the game and ended up beating Zygarde at the 17 hour mark Love me some bois
Bois must be buffed more than normal right? Dudes a monster, feels like cheating
>>58474440Just go out through the station anon
real-time combat actually really fun, feels so snappy, seamless and fluid. Moving you mon to avoid moves is really neat.dunno why some people were complaining about it
>>58475442>>58476065>>58476157What the fuck are any of you talking about???
>>58476215Anon if you haven't played the game why are you here?
>>58475970Yeah
>>58476274Do you have a syther?Do you need anything?
>>58476333I can go catch one and don't need anything
>>58476364Send me the code once you have one. Thanks a lot
>>58476380this (mine) posts postnumber
why cant people just be normal about za lmao, its either the best thing on earth or abysmal dogshit
>>58476391Thanks J
>>58476409Happy to help.
>>58475597yes
>Switch Blastoise for Greninja because i need a dark type>The only good dark type move it can get because special attacker (Dark Pulse) is locked behind way late in the storyWhat were they thinking
>get to post game alpha catching>lower their hp to basically 1 and inflict sleep>have all the catch rate up canari dolls>ALL balls available only give 1 ^, dusk and timer to 2 ^ when conditions met>knocking them out does give 4 ^ but I have had several instances where this still didnt lead to a capture>time wasting agitated mechanic if you dont want to ko for 1 good chanceHow in the flying fuck did we go from PLAs flawless catch rate / capture mechanics to this???
What's the fastest way to level up pokemon for those stupid quests that wants you to fight using only those pokemon?
What is you anons current team, mine is:EmboarAegislashGardevoirAbomasnowDragoniteGreninja
Can any pokeyman be Alpha? I want to hunt Alpha Eevees.
is there anything i should be doing to make the emulation as smooth as possible? currently on the latest version of ryujinx canary, 60fps dynamic mod, anti-aliasing on SMAA, firmware 2.03.0 prodkey 20.3.0. its running pretty well, dipping into 40s in wild areas and dense parts of the city and 60 in smaller areas, but i want to make sure im not missing anything special.
>>58476745Yes
>>58476746also im doing vulkan cus even though the lighting bug is annoying the framerate is way more stable
>>58476618The giant stockpile of candy you have from running around town. Only really had a problem with the pupitar one. Need to carfully time the attacks so you can dodge the super effective moves then attack.
>>58476746In cpu turn memory manager mode to host (fast)
>>58476767that's better than host unchecked (fastest, unsafe)?
>>58476745It might be easier to just get the Alpha Eeveelutions in Area 20.
>10 rounds deep in the Infinite Royale>have still only battled 467 trainers>that's the only thing standing between me and the shiny charmWhy?Why make us grind battles?
Okay real complaint time. Why isnt held items its own inventory category? Why is sorting boxes an absolute pain?Why cant i change held items going in the multiplayer screen?These are real questions btw. If im missing something like a button to change inventory views please tell me.
>>58476788How about this one:During battles, why didn't GF make the L button make your Pokemon close distance to you and the R button create distance?Allows you to physically dodge moves rather than stand there and get hit.The battle system just isn't that good because we lack control.
>>58476786To make shiny hunters seethe (they deserve it)
>>58476812Eh, i think they wanted to make dodging moves something that can happen. But not a totally reliable thing. You have the same survivability as in the turn based games, so being able to reliably dodge attacks would be bad. Attacks that had low accuracy previously can be dodged reliably just by walking away as long as you didnt commit to an attack first. Double team is awful though. Long wind up for a few seconds of invulnerability. By the time its done you just get hit again.
>>58476872>Double team is awful though. Long wind up for a few seconds of invulnerability. By the time its done you just get hit againThis is why detect us God tier. Comes out instantly and lasts a very short time so you can get a counter hit off
>>58476745>Can any pokeyman be Alpha?No, only wild zone mons have a 5% chance of spawning as an alpha variant.Loads of fags have asked about Eevees in these threads and elsewhere, and the random rooftop eevees have no %chance to spawn as alphas
>>58476773yeah
>>58476949Rooftop Dratinis and Hawluchas can be alpha why can't Eevees
How do you use a move like Protect to defend against moves like Dig? There's no target while they vanish so I can't order my pokemon to use the move.
>>58476966>DigSwitch to flying Mon or recall>Bounce/flyRecall or run away and hope for the best/switch to a resist
>>58476966Same way you dodge dig in the old games. Switch.
>>58476965>why can't EeveesIt's just not possible
Anyone get use out of Aegislash in online battles (FFA or 1v1)? I refuse to watch as one of my favorite mons is treated worse than a Budew due to animation incompetence.
>>58476999No. The stupid ghost sword reign of terror is over. Fucker was overturned for way too long
>>58476966Use your own.I wish I was joking, but the strat is to just use your own delayed attack right after.
>>58476998I asked WHY not you stupid bastard
>>58476949Eevee is also a regular spawn in Area 19.
Which two other Pokemon should I add to my Battle Club Delphox team?
>>58477071Water/dark and a grass/fighting to complete the double triangle
>>58477085Breloom oh…
what's her problem?
>>58474264>do the house hunting for Heliolist quest>find the place and say out loud "this would be expensive as fuck in real life">quest giver mentions that literally right after I say itkek
>>58477100I wish breloom was in for my fighting mono team. Breloom being my favorite grass type helps too
>No idea how to build a teamIt's just story but my team is all vibes.
>>58477108I need a gurl who awkwardly stares at me like this
>>58477085I don’t like the other Kalos starters though…
>>58477108She's both extremely maliciously self centered and legitimately 80 IQ
>can change your za profile pic to Emmas ass, no problem!>you cross the line if you set it to one of your pokemon sleeping in front of you
>>58477118>Kalos startersMega gyrados and pick som bulky grass type that also hit dark/fairy types since it will mostly be used to counter mega gyrados and the occasional fairy
>>58477130What? There's a system that forbids certain pictures?
>>58477130What the fuck are you talking about schizoid
>>58477147try setting your profile pic to a gardevoir resting in front of you while facing you, it will just change it to the default og pic you were forced to take at the start of the game.
>>58477147Im guessing that there is some kind of safeguard to ensure you actually take a picture of your trainer. I havent hit that though i should play around with it more.
>>58477014True, how dare anything that isnt a mega, starter or pseudolegendary be viable, let alone usable, in this game
>>58477156>how dare anything that isnt a mega, starter or pseudolegendary be viableLiterally 80-90% of the dex
New Nightmare unlocked
>>58476966just use earthquake and do double damage
>>58477176fetish*
>>58477180Doesn't work in za
>>58477188bruh
>>58477217I know. I was so assmad I overwrote EQ for dig on TTar
>hah you gonna take care of that mega problem?>me sitting on a bench for what amounts to a decade of time
>>58477263he was waiting for the strongest mega trainer, dummy
>>58477226dig is actually really good and probably better
>>58477343Probably. I didn't like how long it takes to start up and miss the insane AOE though
>>58476515because in PLA people was complaining catching was not a challenge and you could snipe alphas that were 30 levels higher than you
>>58476949I thought only the XYZ legends can't be Alpha.
>>58476877t. Detect quest NPC
>You fight Canari almost two times in a rowWho thought this was good game design?
>>58477503Me. I did.
>>58474715That's a good workaround.
>>58477503me, she is a sore loser and actually seeked for the rematch so I needed to correct her
>>58477503Me
>>58474264I have been seeing Trainers sitting with their Pokémon and I've been wondering when the DLC comes out would Tinkaton put down the hammer or she'll keep carrying it or she'll sit on it?
Why did they do an entire shill campaign for Mega Malamar only to lock the mega stone behind postgame in the actual game
>>58477108Stop staring at me with them big ol' eyes!
>>58477503I liked the refights because they were unpredictable like that. The game constantly teases following a rigid structure. But then rugpulls you and changes the formula. It wont be as interesting if i ever want to replay it. But its neat the first time through.
anyone got a save i can throw on my other console to trade myself and eviolite please>>58474347fuck wish i didnt move my save over to switch 2 now no way i can go back to playing at 30fps for a lewd mod>>58474899i had to ask for that one also after looking around for like 20 mins kek
>doing all of the research tasks but fighting 1000 trainers leaves you 100 points short of rank 50fucking cunts
>>58477553It’s a reference to XY locking most of the new marketable super transformations to post game
>>58477607PLAs dex tasks looking a lot better now eh?
what's lover slab
>>58477607Just wait until all theee new mega stones are added for a +500 ‘over filled the megadex’
>>58476949This is definitely false, I've found plenty of random Alphas outside of wild zones, including rare spawns.
>>58477638a porn mod website
>Camerupt, Altaria, Gardevoir, Garbador, Heracross, BinacleI'm a retard when it comes to team building, this any good? I kinda feel Altaris is a bit useless.
Holy fuck, I actually managed to trade with myself on the emulator!! Now I can actually complete the dex and do all Mable's requests!!
>>58477696That's pretty solid, no real glaring flaws. Don't fix it if it isn't broken.
>>58477696heracross makes every team good
>>58477732Thanks. Guess i'll just go with this until I find something I like more in the story.
>>58477696I love my yellow bird
>>58477743He's filling a hole since I needed fighting. It feels cheap using him, feels so powerful but he's great like you say.
>>58477747Mine's unfortunately blue. Only shiny so far is the story Mareep.
>>58477696There's really no need to worry about teambuilding for the story. The boss fights are dramatically easier when you have a super-effective attacker doing Plus moves, even moreso if they happen to be a Mega, so just make sure you have good coverage for movesets and you should be fine.If you wanna do online I could see Gardevoir, Heracross, Altaria, and (eventually) Barbaracle performing well. EQ is too prevalent for Garbodor to perform well and Camerupt is gonna get raped by Gyarados.
>>58477777Cool, thanks.
>THIRD forced story fight against CanariThis is ridiculous
>>58477777Always double check your type coverages. My only coverage for ground was on my gyardos and uh. Stunfisk is one of the most annoying mons.
We love Canari here.
>>58477845We love our big chungi.
>>58477845>>58477855Mega Alpha T-tar in online is so funny cause the only thing even close in size is Mega Alpha Metagross
would you get in her car anons?
>woman drivers
"Main" team of 6>emboar>gardevoir>elektross>gabite>starmie>lucarioBoxed mons that rotate in and out depending on matchups/my mood>greninja>charizard>alpha scolipede that can't hit pin missiles for shit>lopunny>snowrunt (dawnstone when...)I feel like I have a varied enough roster, but something feels missing and I can't put my finger on what it is. I'm rank E right now. Are there any pokemon that you guys think I should train up to complement my teams?
is Diancie's mega stone in the game?
>>58477941It is, but it's currently unavailable since they're likely saving it for an event. Whether a PVP reward, a plain and simple distribution, or a scenario that'll be added in the Mega Dimension content update.
I'm focusing on filling the dex (doing a living one expecting them to add a reward in Home eventually) and side quests for now, but trying to decide what to do when transfer happens.The only one of my bro-team to make it is Gardevoir so I went through some older bros to see who could make it as well, and my old Roserade would be cool too. I also want to reset my story playthrough Absols stats, I really liked him. The other three slots might be some of my story team, but might be mons I think are cool too. I could maybe use this opportunity to try mons I otherwise couldn't (always liked Skarmory but didn't consider one for my bro team since Corviknight has been on it for a while). But also they should be fun to use in Z-A too I feel like. Which Skarmory might be, I should give it a try. I also think it'd look cute with my trainer
>>58477940Only thing that stands out is that you're not using a single Pokemon from Kalos aside from Greninja. It's a Kalos game, use some locals. You don't need to use all Megas, you know. Try a fossilmon or some other regular Gen 6 rep. Pangoro, Heliolisk, Trevenant, Aegislash.
>We interrupt this childrens game to give you the literal Yakuza as the crime teamDafuq
>>58477908She was a cutie
>>58478046Its important that kids learn about loan sharks and interest.
>>58478046They definitely came up with the Rust Syndicate before they wrote the actual story because the group is awesome but the way they're brought into the story is unbelievably stupid.
>>58477940Based I'm running two teams I alternate
>>58478102I feel like thats a lot of the game.I think they came up with a bunch of neat ideas for characters and their roles in the world, but didnt really think about how they'd appear in the game sometimes, some ended up integrated better than others.
>>58478102I'd have liked it more if the initial encounter you have in the game is with rust syndicate and you have to slowly pay your debt and as you do more and more facilities in the city unlock and you get to learn that they were the good guys all along and you still earn the respect of the chief and when he invites you, you can actually join for real. Or for what matters if the story actually let you join any of the other subcultures in the city:-Justice Dojo for hot blooded fighting which a plot that is about clearing the name of the clan and facing off Iv to make him stop embarassing his sister.-Society Hotel to rank up in the group while you rise in the tournament to unlock fashionable clothes-Dynamo Tribe to do assorted challenges to earn views and finally have a faceoff live streamed with the leader,you get to learn more about her story while you're chasing after the gramps all along just to reveal that the real girl is a neet that needs help rehabilitatingSo much potential.
>>58478046>rocket, magma and aqua, galaxy, plasma, N, aether foundationsilence>team forma de la yakuzauh that's too far.
I just realized that Swords Dance and Nasty Plot don't say "sharply boosts" like in past games, implying that they're only a one-stage boost now. Does that mean that Bulk Up and Calm Mind are objectively better because they raise multiple stats? Or is there something I'm missing that still makes Swords Dance and Nasty Plot useful?
>>58478144This is Saint's Row
>>58477771There’s a lot of good places to reset for one if you want to, but both birds and good
>>58478148Those are absurdist concepts. Loan sharks like this game are very real.
>>58478157The sharply boosts buffs last longer for sure.
>poking around in Lysandre Labs looking for Beldum>in the room with the beds there's a Holocaster on one>the whiteboard has drawings of some of the gen I menu spritesNeat.
>>58478157The game repeats this forty times, there are no stages. The stronger boosting moves make the boost last longer instead of making it stronger.
>>58478172>Loan sharks like this game are very real.Well, until they're not. Unfortunately most real life loan sharks don't end up being jerks with hearts of gold that just wanna make the world a better place.
>>58478157Call me a brainlet but I feel like boosting moves in general are kinda mid in this game because unlike previous games in the time it takes for you to boost your opponent can slap you once and already have their second attack queued up. If you're gonna spend time boosting an attacking stat you'd better make sure you one-shot. I think screens fare much better since they don't disappear when the setter gets knocked out.
do you nickname your team?
>>58478203Online at least you can just boost for free while you're heading over to where the opponents are. Even singleplayer if its a melee opponent you can just space them out to buff for free.Remember that for most physical attacks pokemon actually need to walk all the way up to the opponent to attack.
>>58478178>>58478187Thank you, that makes sense. Now I need to decide which one I want to use for my Gallade. Bulk Up would help fix its weaker defensive side, but the longer attack boost from Swords Dance is nice.
>>58478229I'd go with Bulk Up since A) you're guaranteed to take hits in this game, making defensive stats more valuable and B) you can always just boost again, the entire appeal of Swords Dance was that it was a 2x boost, and that's gone now.
Is EV training speed worth it or should I start going Atk/SpAtk and HP?
>Earthquake can't hit a pokemon in Dig anymoresoulless
>>58478229If you go to the dojo, there are training dummies you can target and get the feel for how long the buffs last.
>>58478282It sheds off like 3 seconds of cast time
>>58478215Nah I’ve never nicknamed my mons. Same reason I don’t use in game trades
>>58478215Always
>>58478215Only in Nuzlockes
she jobs harder than vegeta
>>58478215Starters and shinies I would use in another game or feel did exceptionally well only
>>58478187I don't think I ever saw this mentioned but I'm thinking it's because the Switch 2 loading screens are so short you don't have time to read the tips on them. It's not on the tourist tips menu either. I wonder what other essential gameplay mechanics I don't understand because it won't be explained outside of the loading screen.
>>58478327you can just use anything, like a rock or a shard
>>58478414what the trainer tips screen says about status moves is that their Plus Move category has longer lasting effects. Speed says that it will make recharge time work faster, it is very noticeable on naturally fast pokemon
>>58478379It's a Pokemon game, everyone that isn't granted the mystical power of "being the player character" jobs because (you) are inherently going to be a hyper prodigy.I quite like how SV recognised this and just straight up characterized them that way. Everyone being too slow to not eat the mochi and MC just dodging it was great
Bros, I’m in the lategame now and it is kind of draining to enter every new wild zone and be instantly raped to death by the local alpha and her mob of minions…
>>58478414If you look at the description of Bulk Up and Swords Dance you should recognize it immediately. Or hell, just try them out of combat and observe how long they last.
>>58478442yeah but she loses to you like 4 times lol
>>58478486Still a better trainer than Taunie
whoever makes next thread its probably worth putting links in op or something idk if the rentry should be kept as id imagine that info is all over the internet since the game came out and ive hardly updated it since
I haven’t started yet. I can’t decide if I want Gardevoir or Delphox to be my ace. Which one is better in Battle Club?
>"bring me a jumbo pumpkaboo">"wow that's amazing thanks!">she takes my pumpkabooUh what?
>>58478492Taunie reached Rank A however.
Probably gonna beat the game tonight. Liked my team, wanted to use Drampa but the big dino is fun.
>only 230 mons>of those, less than 150 are for non-gen 6 because it makes sense for gen 6 mons to be here>fucking Delibird got in again in the base roster
anyone know a fast way to get to the fennekin spawn in wild zone 18 i wanna hunt it
>>58478623>Delibird got in>Can't use present.This one is going to bug me.
What's the set up for the 70 win dragonite again?
>>58478623>>58478650>the most likely reason it's in is because they needed a signature mon for Couriers, since otherwise they'd be entirely overlapping with other classes (Electric types overlap with DYN4MO associates, Altaria overlaps with Rising Stars and the dragon users of SBC, etc.)
Any mons you've grown fond of because of the new mechanics? Like they just look cool or fun in a way you didn't appreciate before
why are recoil moves even a thing
>>58478845Because the Japanese love the idea of "the last stand" or exhausting yourself to defeat a foe. And to be fair, it's really cool. Just yesterday, I was doing one of the restaurants with my flareon and some very low level mons to give them XP to evolve, and right at the end I double KO'd Flareon and the enemies last pokemon with flare blitz for the win.
>>58478845If you end the fight with a recoil move you don't take the recoil
>>58478845Using Rock Head is fun.
>>58478845the AI being dumb with them is funnyduring the epilogue fight with Taunie Floette killed itself using Light of Ruin to end the fight, didn't even KO my Emboar
It’s crazy how many “official reviews” say there’s only 2 hairstyle choices because they never even made it to a hairdresser in-game
i jsut realised that the adapteri use to use dualshock on switch has a turbo mode built in is it cheating to use this to shiny hunt via bench method
>>58478818Starmie
>>58478933Mega evolution ruined starmie.
>>58478939faggot
>>58478818Emboarnever cared for it before and picked it as a starter with the intention of boxing it, but it handles so much well and its moves which I wouldn't use in a normal game like Heat Crash and Rollout are really useful in ZA
>>58474264Are missions randomly generated or are they unlocked at certain story points? i'm trying to get the shell bell mission (78?)pic not related
>>58478818Weirdly enough, Aromatisse. Was wandering around the city early on and encountered a random Spritzee like 10 levels higher than anything else I'd seen. Took out like half my team just trying to catch it. Afterwards, I kept it on my team purely to use as an emergency safety pivot with the full intention of boxing it later on and then it randomly saved my ass in so many battles even after my mons went over its level. It helps that a ton of shit in this game is weak to Fairy and Psychic, but its bulkiness really serves it well in this battle system. It can tank any moves, even supereffective ones like a champ and then Draining Kiss heals enough that it's really hard to KO. Over the course of the game now I think its only legitimately fainted only twice in battle. It kept wrecking shit and so it earned a permanent spot on my team. Now late game it's still incredibly useful for setting up dual screens for my other mons and still hits like a truck when necessary.
Does anyone know which pokemon this is supposed to be?
>>58479073its story related
Alpha's have exclusive moves that regular pokemon don't have right?
I like Vinnie
>>58479084Ah, ok thanks.
>>58479090they have a TM move that's already upgraded with plus power, Any normal pokemon of that species can learn it too
>>58479090no, they're always TM moves the pokemon could learn
Is Drampa a rain only spawn or something
>>58479119No, he's in area 19 during the day
>>58479119I think it only spawns for a short while after it transitions from night to day
>>58478643depopulate the whole area if it despawns, it will make it appear at the top again faster.
>>58479009they are unlocked at certain bits of the story, it is wise to clear them as they unlock. Just check your map after a cutscene
>>58479119early morning time, last until the "clock" reaches like the first quarter or so if it makes any sense to you. During that time frame it can spawn multiple times.
>quick claw+wishIt's not busted...but this is really cool. insta cast wish
>>58478818Dudes that set light screen, shit lasts a good amount of time and makes my man tank a ton
>>58478511fire is a better stab, but they are both bad. fairy has godawful special moves, dgleam is an easily dodgeable aoe around you and moonblast is a slow ball projectile. play rough is an undodgeable gapcloser but it’s physical, which is funny because play rough is actually the inaccurate one in the cartridge games while here it has perfect accuracy for some reason. gardevoir also has a low movespeed which is kinda bad in pvpfire has like 1 or 2 (fire blast, gigantic aoe, really good for taking out 2 other people who have committed to a brawl)
>Mega Absol with Swords Dance and a damage buff hitting Night Slash in onlineLove this guy like you wouldn't believe.
>>58479363mawile used iron head!
Where is eviolite? I don't like mega blastoise and wartortle is cool AF
>>58479412Racine constructions post game, probably a sidequest otherwise (near end game or post game0
>>58479420Fuuuck. Thanks tho.
>>58479424>>58479424>>58479424
>>58479412Side quest
>>58478818I never realized how many coverage moves Meowstic gets. It's the only non-Mega on my team and I tend to use it when going into battles where I don't know what the opponent will be leading so I'll probably have something to hit it super effectively. I do wish it got Dazzling Gleam though. I needed Fairy coverage on my team and Disarming Voice is too weak to justify.And not a mon but a move, I've come to love Fly again. I used it often as a kid because it was the best flying coverage you got, but got annoyed in later generations with having to wait a turn making using it feel boring. Now it feels incredibly satisfying to fly up out of the way just in time to dodge an incoming Hydro Pump.
>>58478845>knocked out my own Emboar by Flare Blitzing into rogue FroslassI should have learned my lesson from the raids in SV.
