The steps are so weird, you have to go to a specific spot in the coastal biome where leaves are swirling like a tornado, have your music all the way up, spin clockwise for 10-20 seconds, go to camera and stare at a specific rock and make the filter sepia, wait to hear her sing, then pan around to see her

bleak pine
Ok i just caught a Rhypherior in a raid
It is friggin' ginormous
Seriously, it makes my Duraludon look liks a right shorty
All this running around finally got me enough BP to upgrade one part of the terrarium
And this is the only time I ended up looking at Serebii for information, but evidently ||Torchic can be found in the Polar biome once upgraded... for some reason||
||Which, is pretty weird, since I assumed it would be somewhere like the Savanna or Coastal biomes, but whatever||

just fumbled the easier win of my career. They had a Blaziken at 9% and I had Darkrai left. I let them switch between protect and swords dance for 8 turns because I went "clearly they'll swap to an attack and I can sucker punch". And then died to it. My Darkrai runs TAUNT
bleak pine
I figured since there is so many double battles, I would train up my Flygon for supportive moves
Figured Breaking Swipe, Struggle Bug, Tailwind and Helping Hand would be a good start
It learns a lot of tech moves, which is cool. Certainly differentiates itself from other dragon-types
sand forge
Stellar is kinda an ass name for an everything type
bleak pine
I feel like the name alone should be a spoiler but then again, I looked in the search feature and the Tera type was right there
vagrant steppe
I mean you can give it to every mon
Although yours honestly better not doing that

@cloud scaffold how you doing after round 4?
You got at least 1 good tie breaker maybe 2
The way this tournament is going I suspect a couple of x-3’s will make it

So stellar tera keeps your weaknesses the exact same
It’s nice on late game cleaners

If it’s some 4 attacks thing cleaner u probs just wanna click each move once anyways due to varying weaknesses
So the extra boost is good for cleaner kills

A sign to continue the minior hunt
these were supposed to arrive next wednesday, but they are showing up now

It's 4 attacks on everything but pagos, where it's all of them
bleak pine
NAAAAAAAAA-
I love how this is a thing.
Makes me want to go all around and see what other things they sneaked into the terrarium
And I finally did it
I found Torchic
mighty storm
I actually have a shiny litleo, I should reinact this scene
obsidian juniper
bleak pine
Oh yeah, I did in fact find Chargestone Cavern too
Very cool how it's a near-perfect recreation of the environment, down to the floating stones
I just let Torchic out of the ball for a little while and aaaaaa
He's running circles around me!
bleak pine
He better not comment on this
I can't wait to make a giant-arse sandwich again
Like even if we did get the bread on this somehow, I wouldn't exactly eat this if it had like, deviled eggs, kiwi, and... whatever that fluffy brown thing is
mighty storm
How is your bread so large?
bleak pine
Oh, this happened a few months back
Me, Metrona, Yoz and Raz made a sandwich
Evidently the more people involved in making one, the bigger the bread will be
Which I guess is the key to getting higher stars.
...And I feel we botched it when we missed the bread. But hey, it's better than 2 or 1
Just climbed a mountain and found a shiny Camerupt at the top
Did not expect that
mighty storm
ah
bleak pine
...And not even a moment later I find a shiny Alolan Exeggutor
bleak pine
I'm beginning to think Ogre Oustin' really is just sorta impossible at hard difficulty
Well, impossible to pass all stages. Doing well still does give you a good few rewards
Alright, so here's the 411
Gonna bring this team to challenge Crispin: Slaking, Weezing (Galarian), Walking Wake, Clefable, Blaziken and Quaqaval
Figured I'd lead in with Slaking and Weezing: Neutralizing Gas removes Slaking's one weakness and just has it stomp stuff megahard the whole time
Debating on Double Edge or Facade for it's main means of attack
Shoutouts to Ren for Clef
bleak pine
Actually change of plans: Gonna use Palafin instead of Quaquaval
Might lead with Palafin instead of Weezing
bleak pine
Allllright, gotta make a super spicy sandwich
Man, now I want to make a sandwich again
I was gonna give Slaking the move Fake-Out, but I think it doesn't learn it at all
And I thought it did. Maybe I'm thinking of something else
Also holy crap Walking Wake is huge
kind vortex
terapagos obviously isn't long for this world
deoxys might (operative word might in about 10 sets of quotation marks) have a chance
vagrant steppe
Terapagos is gone by the end of the week imo
Deoxys gets the new year
Darkrai is actually a fair Gholdengo counter
And we gotta ban Gliscor again

Huh Lucario is kinda tiny
My friend has the life sized plush and he's only like 4 feet tall
vagrant steppe
bleak pine
Ay
vagrant steppe
I guess the fact that all the characters in the shows and games are 12 makes him look taller
bleak pine
Alright, you got a quest to give a mon a nice washing... hmm
vagrant steppe
Although Smash definitely added 2 feet to him, he's like link sized there
bleak pine
Shall we just try a picnic for now?
Alright, I'll go to the polar biome to knock out some BBQ's
What about you?
mighty storm
lets do some BBQs yeah
bleak pine
holy crap, Blaziken runs fast
Gotta say, some of these BBQ's are pretty easy to do, but I find doing the whole "Terastalizie to defeat a wild mon" thing a little cumbersome
Might as well catch a Seel for Raz
Alllright, got my difficult BBQ done, just gotta take on this Reuniclus now
...And of course I send Blaziken out there. Argh, just gotta swap into Duraludon

Oh wow, Alolan Sandslash is a thing
...I'll assume it's a Violet Exclusive since I have not seen one yet?
Ah cool, the Cram-o-Matic is back. Or, something similar to it
Wondering if that silly thing where you can keep making TM's for Heat Crash can still bring in the money
...Oh wow, I threw like enough Delibird Parcels and got like
A Comet Shard, plus a few other goodies
Gonna try Glimmet Crystals next
...Eh, not as exciting
I think the way it works is, it's semi-random? I think?
Like, each material contributes to a specific pool of itesm, with odds based on the material's LP worth
So like, Happiny Dust gives more good odds compared to say, Magikarp Scales
Oh, that's nice, the machine looks like a Great Ball if you do enough print jobs. Pretty clever!
oh my goodness, the special songs list has Castelia City on the tracks
Yesssss~

oh my goodness I found one
A CHIKORITA
Raz, I did it. I got a Chikorita
bleak pine
Alright, question for the battling crowd
What exactly is a condition for a move to be considered to have 'failed'?
In the case of Stomping Tantrum and this newer fire-type move I got a TM for, I imagine it would be like, if an attack was made, but it ended up missing either cause of low accuracy, or because the opponent used a move like Protect
...Ah, a quick look tells me what the conditions were
obsidian juniper
bleak pine
D'aww
...Actually shoot, I probably ought to experiment more with Synchronization
Only ever used Weavile, so I might try Synchronizing with like, I guess something that can swim
...Or something that can really book it when running like Blaziken.
...Ok, wow, evidently with the printing machine ||One of the Pokeball prizes you can get is a Beast Ball.||
Did not expect that
I think maybe the best kind of material for the printing machine is probably Delibird Parcels
I think groups of them can be found on Glaseado Mountain, so they're worth a good bit for the cost/quantity ratio
kind vortex
What are good double battle strategies?
You can brute force with weather boosting spread moves, like sun eruption, rain water spout, snow blizzard
It's plenty for the in game battles
bleak pine
Ah yeah, I might try something with sunlight
Always wanted to give it a go with Ninetales and a few others
Mostly just asking to try out new things to try out
The whole After You/Focus Punch strategy was very funny, but there's so much more to explore!
kind vortex
My team was ninetales/typhlosion-h/kingambit/flutter mane/ogerpon/furret

Furret put in some work since follow me is Fair and Balanced
bleak pine
Oh, neat
Love the noodle
I think I'll take a page out of Ren's book and see how well Clefable fares in a few double battles.
Rn I'm just taking things slow insofar as Part 2 goes, so I may be behind everyone else here

clefairy is better in doubles imo
you have plenty of other mons for damage, but clefairy provides damage mitigation clefable doesn't

Not that I'm complaining
bleak pine
Oh, that's super cool!
That's a really great ability. A right shame that it's not very widespread, but again, given Clefairy can have it, I'm alright with it
The pink thing is just the gift that keeps on giving
Also, seems Jigglypuff can learn it too, but I'm a little leery on using Jigglypuff over Clefairy in such a scenario
kind vortex
clefairy is better
bleak pine
And I feel like nailing Population Bomb a whole lot is too tempting a strategy for Maushold to consider for Friend Guard
And Vivillon is... eh. Not a winner

bleak pine
||I assume it's the rarest roll though, so... yeah, not counting on that ever happening lol||
vagrant steppe
I was also trying Terapagos behind screens but unsurprisingly the funny turtle is BROKEN
Whoever decided that a 700 BST Mon with better multiscale and the ability to clear weather and terrain, on top of permanent STAB for all its attacks and a 120 BP normal move that can hit ghosts was okay was smoking something
Although it is funny how cleanly turtle picked off ogrepon
They definitely intended for him to be the answer to her
bleak pine
Oh right, the Tera raid against Dialga. Forgot to do that
Eh, it'll be fine, I got Blissey to take care of business
Ok, that's a real flex, it knowing Steel Beam
I find it pretty weird how it's a 5* raid
You'd think a legendary would be on the level of that 7* raid for Mewtwo, but it isn't
And yeah, completed it without a hitch. Blissey was just near-unbreakable

Savanna/Canyon and Coast/Polar sounds good, since it may give us like, two flat and craggy areas at once

Draytons place
mighty storm

Also Vikavolt is highly recommended because its pretty fast and can fly
bleak pine
Ahhh, nice
spice rivet
As a lets go mon
spice rivet
Got Duraladon
bleak pine
But I suppose Vikavolt flies, so it's good for going over water too
bleak pine
Oooh
mighty storm
when I hit 9k Im gonna call it a day
bleak pine
Lemme see
6,000 so far
I can end it whenever you feel like you had enough, I'm fine either way
spice rivet
Ye
bleak pine
Man, pickles and yogurt
I would not at all eat this
I hope Koraidon loves it though
mighty storm
I can get the tera raid done
spice rivet
Doing a raid
spice rivet
Nah, ill just solo it, its not a good mom or type any rn
spice rivet
Also one of my favorite Tera mons in the wild is a Fera Water Rhydon with Surf
bleak pine
Ooooh yeah, I saw that one
It's just surrounded by water, too
It doesn't care!
Love how Rhydon can just learn surf
In spite of being a rhino of rocks
mighty storm
alright just got to over 9k, calling it a break for now. Ty
bleak pine
Righto
spice rivet
Np, thank you too!
mighty storm

Nice! Def upgrade the Item Printer

mighty storm
Ah the trading feature
spice rivet
i have like 10 Masterpiece Cups and 6 Heavy Alloy
bleak pine
I got those alloys
mighty storm
lmao he gave me, 200 BP free
bleak pine
But I still feel like keeping my Duraludon as Duraludon is fine
mighty storm
the boosting bio diversity sounds cool, I could unlock the starters to hunt
each group is 3k
mighty storm
going coastal, polar, and savanna
bleak pine
Man, this last ditto ain't making it easy
spice rivet
I think we need to consult a map
bleak pine
I'll repost Argor's material
mighty storm
and finally with 230 left before spending 50, getting ninja style throwing
spice rivet
Doesnt have canyon big rip
bleak pine
Youch
spice rivet
Ill try to find another
bleak pine
Yeah, I can see why, the place is friggin' huge
I'll see if there's some at the central plaza, though I doubt it
Might as well make the TM's while I'm there
bleak pine
Ayyy, you found it!
spice rivet
Was near the suspension bridge
bleak pine
Didn't think it'd be there, hmm
spice rivet
Ya, on one of the outcropping of blocks
bleak pine
I find it funny how Granbull could learn Temper Flare
Seems there's no reason to stick to Fire Punch now
Alright, a ghost type
...Oh, right, Golett.
Forgot that they're around the canyon or polar biomes
spice rivet
Also, one more Yellow quest then I think Ill be calling it there for the night
bleak pine
Righto
mighty storm
Im gonna evolve the horsea, I wanna see shiny seadra and kingdra
bleak pine
Need help? I can help out with some trading
mighty storm
does it need an item for the trade evo?
bleak pine
Yeah, the dragon scale
You trade it holding the dragon scale, and it'll evolve Seadra into Kingdra
mighty storm
where do I get dragon scales? in case I dont have one
bleak pine
I think the printing machine can print one from time to time
Also thinking it's a 'dex completion reward for milestones
mighty storm
alright I'll wait for dex completion reward
spice rivet
Ye, the Jinbei should work

My love
bleak pine
And that's the last of em!
pseudo goblet
Is it the year of the dragon?
Two more years for my zodiac year
spice rivet
Yes, thank you so much too Symph and Summer!
bleak pine
Yaa~
spice rivet
How much BP you at now?
bleak pine
Thanks so much. If you need any helping hands, I'm good to call
Let's see here
9280 BP!
That's pretty sizable!
spice rivet
Im at... Jesus 18,000.
Ya we crushed it
spice rivet
Also talk to snacksworth, you probs got a good amount of Legendaries you can access
mighty storm
Yes, thank you so much too Symph and Summer!
yw
bleak pine
I dunno if I can do that just yet, but I'll keep it in mind
spice rivet
Ya, you need to do 130 Solo BBQ, and the remaining 12 are from Union BBQ (The yellow ones)
bleak pine
Ahhh
spice rivet
They do count from before talking to him the first time atleast
bleak pine
I'll keep it in mind!
...I'm serious, that Tauros really made me jump, since it busted in so quickly
Arrggh
mighty storm
I still have yet to go hunt down the snackworth legendaries
spice rivet
Honestly, Im waiting till I need them for VGC with specific IVs rather than just turbo through them rn
Since I have them all from my living dex
Except for the SwSh DLC mons but those are really VGC relevant so Ill get them soon enough
Def need 0 Speed Glastrier though
bleak pine
Honse
I got enough BP to do both the Canyon and Savanna biome upgrades, too
Woo
Litten and Squirtle are nice
I feel like some of the stuff in the School Store is pretty overpriced... hmm
Dunno if I feel comfortable shelling out 50 for stuff like Protein and the like
Though, EXP candy is actually a good deal
Alright, so I noticed something else filling out the 'dex, ||Evidently there's something below Bulbasaur that looks suspiciously like something related to Applin. Hmm||
Also, if any of you have like, an Alolan Sandshrew, I'd gladly do some trading for it
Or Shieldon
spice rivet
Ah so cute
I bred a Sandshrew I can toss your way. You may get lucky and find a Bastiodon raid you can join online
bleak pine
Oooh, yeah, I'll keep at it
I'll give ya something nice for the trouble!
Shall we attempt a trade? I can start a room right fast
mighty storm
symph do you not have PLA with a bastiodon?
bleak pine
...Eh, well, funny story. My membership for HOME expired
mighty storm
you still have your free box
bleak pine
Ahhh, yeah, possibly!
I can try that out
P sure I don't have an Alolan Sandshrew though
But yeah, I'll try out PLA for Shieldon. Been planning on renewing it, but I don't got the membership for now
Room's 9107
pseudo goblet
P sure I don't have an Alolan Sandshrew though
You have LetsGo?
bleak pine
Nnnnnope
pseudo goblet
Damn
bleak pine
Ehhh, we can probs do the trading someday later
I think we're all pooped from the BBQ-ing
spice rivet
@bleak pine Sorry, had to do something, be on in 5
bleak pine
Ah, take your time
pseudo goblet
bleak pine
Kitty~
spice rivet
Kk
bleak pine
And this little trade is a little something for your help today~
spice rivet
So uhh, it got sent to home accidentally
bleak pine
-Ah
spice rivet
Just gimme 2 min
bleak pine
Eh, yeah, that's alright, take your time
spice rivet
I have Sandslash so I can give you an egg
bleak pine
Sure thing
I'll boot it up again
Man, I miss the CLANK sound from making a connection in Sword/Shield
Metal on metal sound
spice rivet
Joining
spice rivet
Oh my god, its Kevin Bacon!
bleak pine
Yeaaaaa
spice rivet
Tysm!
bleak pine
And not to worry, I got another one, so this one's all yours
Thanks for the egg!
Annnnywho, I think I best retire for the night. Thanks for the get-together!
(Also gave it a Rare Candy to hold too, just so ya know)
spice rivet
No problem. Also you want to know something funny real quick. The A Sandslash that made that egg actually came from someone else here on the discord! I wanted one for my initial Sun playthrough
spice rivet
Their IGN is Erika, I cant remember who that is
bleak pine
Hmm, doesn't ring a bell to me, either.
mighty storm
synchro is both the greatest feature and the worst feature (F for all the shinies it has killed)
bleak pine
turtl
maiden flax
||meloetta has a funny way to get her||
maiden flax
Fun fact: hydrapple is the first non-legendary/mythical/special (like the ultra beasts) grass type to have above 540 bst

The feature is limited within BlueBerry right
atomic heart
just started the DLC
as a Gen 5 enjoyer as soon as I heard the first few parts of the trainer battle theme
oh boy
you do not know how happy I was
inland gyro
well weirdest but interesting idea i've seen someone do for a pokemon vid: create a tier list of the major opponents in pokemon based on their win loss vs each other (using AI, also it wasn't level adjusted so obviously first gym leaders are way down and champions usually high)
pseudo goblet
bleak pine
Pretty bummed that Blaziken still can't learn High Jump Kick
Or Axe Kick. I figured that would be one move it would at least know.
kind vortex
just give it close combat
both hjk and axe kick have too big a potential drawback comparatively
so i don't think it's a big deal
mighty storm
bleak pine
both hjk and axe kick have too big a potential drawback comparatively
Eh, yeah. I agree with you! Just, I love these kinds of moves
Just feels like it ain't Blaziken unless it just does a super sick knee kick. It's more flavor than actual usability
Close Combat's good though
Also wow, Mater Balls?
kind vortex
they're pretty low percentage, but yes
make sure you take advantage of the delibird parcel event that'll be dropping in a few days
spice rivet
Opened 3 ETBs, 2 Paradox Rift and a 151. Did not do too good tbh, but I did also get some neat Reverse foils
silver vigil
pog
bleak pine
Alright, took on the next stop for the Elite Four, and won it handily
Both Blastoise and Ursaluna were just chads on weathering out the whole trick room strategy
Feels so weird using physical moves for Blastoise though
Like, it's got cannon's on it's shell, and I can just... not have it use any of these and just slam stuff?
My concern for Kieran is getting way bigger
mighty storm
I was just trying to find a new minior hunting location, and found a mudkip
accidentally killed it tho
but found another
bleak pine
Ooh
Yeah, Mudkip if I recall are always in caves
...For some reason
You'd think they'd be found in the Savanna, near the muddy ponds
Oh yeah, just gonna ask the battlers
@spice rivet You wouldn't happen to be interested in a casual sort of double battle, would you? I've never done so much double battles before, so a casual sort of one to get me loosened up would be cool
mighty storm
second sandwich attempt of looking for minior, nothing
spice rivet
<@145350010526105600> You wouldn't happen to be interested in a casual sort of d...
Id be down for that. But when you say casual, do you mean like the mons arent EV Trained or anything or do you mean just battling with no real stakes?
spice rivet
Kk, give me 20ish and Ill be on
bleak pine
Sure thing~
Only real request is no spoiler-ish stuff so far
I feel like I'm certainly not too knowledgable in the finer points of battling, but I do try to give it an honest go when I do.
spice rivet
Ok, no worries, teams all ready to go!
bleak pine
Sure thing! I'll boot mine up
Set code's same as usual, 9107
And the format is a double battle!
spice rivet
Good luck have fun!
bleak pine
I'll pick the normal rules, since that'll put us all on a relatively even field
spice rivet
Kk sounds good
mighty storm
My shiny luck when in Symph's world: 2 shinies that weren't targeted
My shiny luck when I specifically look for a smol meteor fren: crickets
bleak pine
Youch
spice rivet
Oof
mighty storm
I'll go for third attempt tomorrow
bleak pine
...Well, I made a horrible mistake
spice rivet
Rip
bleak pine
Aaaaaaa
Yow, wrong call there for me
I have this set to the gym leader battle theme and it still just gets me so pumped up to fight
aaaaaaaAAAAA
spice rivet
bleak pine
Ah, cool!
spice rivet
The Galar Gym theme was my most played song this year lmao
bleak pine
Alll in baybeeee
spice rivet
Though I do love the Paldea Gym theme
bleak pine
ONE PUNCH CONK
spice rivet
Oh fuuuuuu
bleak pine
Oooh
spice rivet
This is infact the 1st Shiny I ever caught
spice rivet
In White 1s Giant Chasm
spice rivet
Ice Shard go BRRRRR
bleak pine
A double KO!
spice rivet
Because its cold
bleak pine
Counting on you, Blaziken!
spice rivet
Oh also, not a spoiler but if you do Snackworths quests, you will get the themes for the Legendaries selectable in PVP
bleak pine
Ooooh, will do!
spice rivet
bleak pine
...Annnd it's at this point I feel like I'm in danger
Once I saw Chandelure
This may be close...!
bleak pine
Well this also may be dumb but I feel like Clef and Blaziken have no moves capable of harming Chandelure
spice rivet
Ill run out of PP forst, so you got this
bleak pine
Ah
spice rivet
Gg!
bleak pine
Thanks for the game, Yoz! Lemme know if you wanna go again!
spice rivet
No worries, thank you too
bleak pine
I feel right loosened up to take on Drayton now
Oh yeah, you need another group set up Summer? Feels like you got good luck on these union circle stuff, lol
kind vortex
that sounds horrifying
bleak pine
Spice!
Ok, so Drayton's trial is very interesting
Not gonna spoil it, but it does inspire a good bit of creativity
Annnnd that's elite four done!
Had Duraludon just obliterate Archaludon with Draco Meteor
Annnd this TM, wow
Innnteresting
Alllright, it's time, everyone
bleak pine
Concern is reaching critical levels about now
||Ooh god he did not like it when I brought out Ogrepon||
kind vortex
||good||
bleak pine
||I think the only other time a trainer reacts to a specific mon was like, Leon, if you chose to send out Eternatus in the Champion's Cup finals||
kind vortex
dlc 2 spoilers you've already passed ||carmine also reacts to ogerpon||
bleak pine
||Oooh, neat||
||The flow went like this: Nearly evenly matched (Maybe 2-3 levels above most mons): I won the weather wars and had harsh sunlight reign as I had Venusaur just wreck his Politoed. It got KO'd by Incineroar next turn, but I managed a win with Ogrepon, Walking Wake and Blaziken remaining. Only Torkoal, Venusaur and Charizard suffered a KO||
||Wish I could say Ogrepon delivered the KO, but it was Blaziken finishing the job with Brave Bird||
||...Oh god I just broke Kieran||
||
||
||Oh hey, Geeta is here!||
||Oh no the scary Area Zero music||
kind vortex
||...Oh god I just broke Kieran||
||good||
