Having a Professor that just doesn't give a fuck and isn't some sort of mentor and is actually just "look kid get your fucking work done" is great. Her design is good but doesn't go crazy for me, while Lida, Gwynn and Canari all have top tier designs.

Jacinthe really grow on me with time, I think her design fits her perfectly and that shot of her leaving the meeting room made her look like she has a comically fat ass which made her way hotter.

Honestly my fave is probably Canari. Lida might have won out if she did more in the story. Gwynn is cute as hell though.

Quick question: I'm Alpha hunting a Riolu, and I'm at the ladder where one spawns on a rooftop.

I read you can (quickly) cycle the spawns by climbing up and down the ladder, but I just want to double check I'm not wasting my time when I can still hear the fucker when I finish climbing down the ladder.

Also, has anyone (organically) come across shinies? I think the only one I've caught outside of quests is a Fletchling.

I got a Weedle very early on, then a Pansear in a tree and a Magikarp in a little canal when I was going between Larvitar spawns looking for an alpha.

How the fuck are you people doing so many battles? I just got AZ's floette and I'm only at 531/1000 battles. Even with the ZA Royale I only hit around 20 battles a night, yet iveseen some people say they do 70.
>>
>>58479765
>Considering less speed= less recharge
Hoping you meant "more speed = less recharge". And because of how the combat works in this game speed is important but not nearly as important as it is in the turn-based games. A little bulk goes a long way here. You're guaranteed to take some hits no matter how fast you are.
>>
>>58479776
I was averaging 30 battles per battle zone so it was +450 battles by the time I got to 15. There's 3 battle zones so you just fly between the 3 to reset the trainers fast.

>>58479632
Wait, she has a good story or something?
>>
>>58479808
Yes, and speaking from my own experience, you can get enough time to have up to 40 battles per night, you just have to be brutally efficient in your time allocation. Spend as little time as possible running around, if you're taking more than 10 seconds to find someone you need to warp to another zone. You might have to refresh your zones by benchsitting to cycle into the next day and next night if you've got zones with a lot of rooftop emphasis, they suck for grinding battles.
Battles pause the progression of time so focus on getting into them ASAP, even if it requires you to get jumped by an NPC since waiting on your mon to waddle up and sneak attack is an insidious time killer.

Ending spoilers question

Why did AZ just die off screen? I knew he wasn't well from coughing he did a few times but they didn't really put much significance to it. I guess as a story arc, he was only clinging to life so he could see his mistake he made long ago be ended. It seems very out of place that it cuts to his grave stone and it's like "surprise he's dead now" without much fanfare. It didn't feel like the story was building up to an event like that and it feels like his death was needless because of it.

>>58480574
Like >>58480595 said, you can tell they had a little trouble balancing special attacks in this game. If they build on this combat system I hope they increase the max range for most special moves, physical has plenty of quick approach tools that would keep things balanced if used properly, which would encourage special attackers to use a variety of moves like close range AoEs or utility moves like Teleport.

Alphas are marked as XL in the size classification but I'm pretty sure Alphas are bigger than them, if the Magikarp sidequest is to be trusted. It specifically asks for one that's bigger than XL, and any Alpha Magikarp will work. Kinda weird Alphas aren't marked XXL or something to make them more distinct.

I wasn't the original anon replying to you anyways but goddamn that projection. Go dilate and cry on Tumblr about not finding the shiny mareep faggot.

>>58480949
Yes.
>>
>>58480843
I've abused the fuck out of this and have resources to make infinite competitive mons on SV. Champions can't come soon enough.
>>
>>58480401
Unironically this is my plan for when I finish this game. I gotta keep my pokemon autism fixation going until I catch onto something else in a couple weeks, but cards are expensive and this game is unfinished. So back to PLA shiny hunting (because it’s the best shiny hunting method Pokémon’s dropped so far)
>>
>>58480949
yea, PLA also had longer range and you could snipe mons from afar.
>>
>>58480949
Yes, the back strike mechanic was first introduced in PL:A. I enjoy the mechanic, really drew you into the world of the game, especially back then. Like, you didn't always need to battle, you could just snipe a catch like in the anime. Cool shit.
>>
Has anyone tested if Alpha Pokemon (or larger sized mons in general) have bigger attack hitboxes than smaller ones?
>>
>>58480951
sounds like something really specific which makes it seem like something you would do because you're projecting. the point was just that I haven't found a shiny yet. I wasn't saying I tried really hard and couldn't figure it out or something. I didn't try at all. but it's making me angry because I can tell that you're actually retarded as fuck and desperately trying to make someone feel below you because you're used to being the most retarded person around and trying to make yourself feel better.
>>
>>58480969
They do, and they also have bigger hurtboxes. In fact, some mons like Drampa are kinda bad as Alphas because the have a slouched neck and whiff way more easily than a normal Drampa.
>>
>>58480969
All attack hitboxes are relative to the size of the Pokemon.
>>
>>58480979
This was my experience having an alpha Scolipede on my team. If the enemy pokemon was right in front of him, he couldn’t hit for shit. Cool looking mega though so I kept him anyway

Just not wanting to do the quest. Why even bother to try and pass off that the quest didn't work as intended? You're obviously mentally challenged, and take to insults as a first line of defense when called out on being a retard.

Not the anon, but we can tell. The quest literally tells you where it is and you didn't read and "looked for 2 seconds" in the wrong place. We all skip text in games sometimes, there's no need to get ultra buttmad because you got embarassed about it, man.
>>
how long do stat boosts last in combat?
>>
>>58480949
It was in Scarlet and Violet too. You got a turn where the Pokémon was stunned for an increased catch rate first throw or a free attack.

more random shit making it obviously projection. you're the one that keeps going on about fucking nothing. thanks for proving you're a fucking retard by quoting a bunch of posts btw I only read the bottom part and skipped the rest because this is pointless and you just have something to prove to yourself because you know you're a retard and no one cares. only a fucking retard would care this much about this. I coded a game engine and client and server from scratch because I'm a fucking retard. you caught a storyline shiny that only an UNDERAGE kid or retard would care about and it's seemingly the most important thing in the world to you because you're a retarded loser. a free shiny that everyone gets is so fucking boring that's why I didn't want it to be my first shiny and barely looked then left.

You need to match firmwares with other people so if you're not in 20.5 you will not match. You also need to have your multiplayer configured to match other emulators and remain public, the rest is hosting a room with a given password or agreeing with an anon to trade and try to match.

Yeah, you just need to keep refreshing the area until it rerolls the Froakie into an alpha, make sure not to get close enough to scare the normal ones so you don't have to wait on the respawn timer on top of that.

They are pushing the DLC preorders so early that I wouldn't be surprised if they started aggressively dumping info on it soon. We know from the terealeak that both the SWSH and SV DLC sold poorly so they are trying to sell ZA before people get bored of the game.

Those weren't actually bad numbers for DLC though

Even that's asking too much, it'll just be a few Wild Zones, cutscene hallways and recolored Rogue Mega arenas.

This. I have zero expectation for the DLC to actually add anything other than some new mons to play around with.
>>
>>58482055
I really hope not, it’s $30 and the Blueberry DLC actually added shit to SV. Personally hoping we get some fun side content like an endless gauntlet or Rhyhorn racing, also I need Alain to show up.

i never found a shiny in 20 years of playing pkmn but i found 2 today in za (litleo and snorunt). cheers

GF hates animefags and wants them to leave. They will never reference it again. There’s a reason Clemont and Serena were absent from the game.
>>

>. They will never reference it again.
One of the photos in the Pokemon Lab is Sycamore with a Garchomp which is an anime reference.

Nope, it’s just an XY reference.
>>
>>58482119

>>58482106
It's weird how that works. I played every single mainline game since 90s, sometimes both versions, and I didn't get a shiny until Legends Arceus came out and then I got three of them.
congrats anon.

Like it or not, Alain as a character and the Mega Evolution Specials are canon to the gameverse thanks to ORAS, Steven directly mentions the events of the time he teamed up with Alain to battle Rayquaza.
It's not literally the anime's version of Alain or those events, since Ash's world is fundamentally incompatible with the game's canon, but the Mega Evolution Specials absolutely took place in the games, since they're self-contained enough and can be rewritten accordingly to suit the gameverse.
>>58482121
Where's the part of XY where Sycamore uses or has strong associations with Garchomp? I must've missed that iconic XY reference, because all I remember Sycamore being associated with in the games is the Kalos and Kanto starters.

i'm going insane trying to find this xl pumpkaboo for the sidequest why does this nignog not accept alphas
>>
Can non Wild Zone spawns have a chance at Alphas? I want an Alpha Flobebe with a white color
>>
>>58482115
I never watched the anime regularly just the occasional special, he’s technically semi-canon because Steven mentions him in ORAS and he’s the only champ in the Masters Eight who isn’t from the games
>>
>>58482169
The one I gave her was Size M but somehow still a large variety.
>>
>>58482188
wait what

you don't have to give an xl?

fuck i think i have a fairly large m somewhere
>>
>>58482188
Pumpkaboo's size modifier(that all pokemon have now) is separate from its form

You can get an S jumbo variety or an XL small variety
>>
>>58482188
If you read the quest she says the jumbo and whatever is a form and not the size stuff
>>
>>58482204
It’s an epic trole, Pumpkaboo’s size classifications are independent of the game’s size classifications

>>58482227
It’s a callback to XY, Pumpkaboo/Gourgeist have 4 separate ‘formes’ based on their size, with slightly different stats
>>
>>58482169
XL only spawns at night. Has a much deeper sounding cry too
>>
>>58482257
ok why not just have pumpkaboo's forme in this game locked to the corresponding size then

>>58482278
oh so at first you cry about the dex cut but now you want forms to be cut for an included mon

why are galar defenders like this?

no you idiot i am saying to implement the formes through the size system

like a jumbo pumpkaboo in this game would be xl

nta, I wish it was that way. Hunting for a shiny alpha xl pumpkaboo and I realized that each size variation can be an Alpha.

There are so many garbage nothingburger videos being pumped out for this game that are infesting my feed.

So when prism tower starts glowing does it stay night time forever until you go there? So you can play without the fucking cutscene constantly?

I don't think you're able to do anything else besides the story at that point.

i loved how singleplayer focused Legends Arceus was, i was kinda hoping it was gonna be the same with Z-A.
>>
>>58482355
Same, it was one of the main complaints about PLA iirc so I guess they decided to steer it that way. Also helps drive more Nintendo online subscriptions.
>>
>>58482289
Because then they'd have to make different stat spreads for EVERY SINGLE POKEMON for EVERY SINGLE SIZE CLASSIFICATION.
Treating the varieties as forms based on "recent discoveries" was the only way they could rationalize an old decision without having to spread it out beyond Pumpkaboo and Gourgeist.

>>58482390
i don't know how you still managed to misunderstand this extremely basic point

no you don't have to make new bsts for every other pokemon, just do it for pumpkaboo and gourgeist only
>>
>>58482400
Okay, but in your scenario, WHY are Pumpkaboo and Gourgeist the only Pokemon who have different stat spreads based on their size? Why is my XS Tyrantrum the same speed as my XL Tyrantrum, but my XS Gourgeist is running laps around my XL Gourgeist?
>>
>>58482348
Damn
>>
>>58482408
Because Gourgeist has a retarded gimmick based on size
>>
>>58482417
>retarded gimmick
In other words, its forms?
There you go, that's why there's a distinction between species size and Pumpkaboo/Gourgeist varieties.
>>
>>58482408
Because it was a gimmick introduced into the series before they added different sizes for all pokemon.
>>
might as well complain about nidoran male and female being counted as separate pokemon while you're at it
>>
>>58482432
That's entirely different. If they merged the Nidorans, the "OG 151" would stop being 151, and instead be 150, completely killing the marketability of the collective by betraying one of the most sacred rules of nostalgia.
>>
I'm at Rank B in the story currently, will I just get demolished if I try to do online battles with my team at around level 70 and not perfectly maxed EV's. I'm kind of afraid to even try competitive with this janky ass battle system. Feels like the only stats that matter in this game are HP and Speed.
>>
>>58482466
Online like usual sets everything to 50
>>
>>58482466
Speed sucks everyone just builds max hp max atk/spatk.
>>
>>58482466
If you are that late into the story you may as well finish it out. Building competitive mons is easy after you finish the game
>free full EV resets from a girl at Rust Syndicate
>any alpha you catch automatically has 3 perfect IVs and 252 HP EVs
>can buy vitamins from any pokecenter and money is easy to farm from the battle royale
The ONLY issue is bottle caps. You only get so many from missions and earning more is a horrid rng grindfest. When more tradebots become available it will be easy to get free golden bottle caps that way.
>>
>>58482474
>>58482475
>>58482491
Okay cool, thanks for the advice all. Does strategy even matter at all in competitive, like using stat altering moves/status effects/trap moves or is it all just about whose attack can make the biggest number?
>>
>>58482491
>free full EV resets from a girl at Rust Syndicate
Siiiick
>>
>>58482466
speed isn’t that great in online either, you’re not fighting training dummies; you’ll be moving around a lot waiting for opportunities and openings

you want full hp and atk/spa
>>
>>58482509
It's 4v4 so it's a bit different, doing things like kill stealing
>>
>>58482509
online is too fast-paced for status moves, just juke incoming hits with swaps and mega evolving and try to pick off others
>>
>>58482509
>Does strategy even matter at all in competitive
There is surprisingly a lot of depth in it and the metagame is still developing each day.
>is it all just about whose attack can make the biggest number?
People are actually discovering that a lot of weaker moves are extremely useful in pvp because of how much faster they come out compared to the big hard hitting moves. It doesn't matter how much damage a swords danced Mega Garchomp is about to do with it's Earthquake if it gets killed by a quick Ice Fang before it finishes casting.
>>
>>58482423
idk how ‘it has formes’ is a counterargument at all, the formes are ostensibly based off size and these are the only pokemon to have formes based off size, so just tie the gimmick to the size system. this is not a hard concept to grasp, nobody is complaining that vivillon has a million formes based off game language despite all pokemon having a game language flag not just vivillon

Where the fuck is Dedenne, these little cunt were all over the roofs when I was playing through the story but now that I'm actively looking I can't find a single one
