How many of you has the battle bond greninja from the sun and moon demo?
Can it be transferred to pokemon home then scarlet and violet or is battle bond not in gen 9?

graceful osprey
#

Am I allowed to be upset about finding shinies during outbreaks?

graceful osprey
#

I think jt raises your attack by like

#

1 or 2 stages after a ko

#

No transformation

#

I dunno if it can be transfered anymore (I'd assume not)

SHINY BOYOOOOO

#

the joke is that it will always be the same core "punchline" with different wording and varying levels of commitment and or resignation

sweet crypt
#

Just y'know

graceful osprey
#

Not battle bond

#

Wose moxie?

#

Where's my sailor moon style transformation greninja?

sweet crypt
#

640 is insanely high and it still gets to hold an item

hard plume
#

......also ash greninja is kind of lame

#

it's an ability exclusive to an anime protag

proven geyser
#

oh, i have demo and sun and moon so i can just get two right now if i reset my games

graceful osprey
#

Fun thing

#

I have the sun and moon demo on my 3ds

#

I just don't have bank

proven geyser
#

ditto

graceful osprey
#

So they're stuck on the 3ds

sweet crypt
#

People wanting the Kalos starters to not get Megas because of Ash Greninja, a removed form, exist btw

proven geyser
#

wait i came here to talk about my berry field addiction

sweet crypt
#

I see people genuinely give that as their reasoning for not wanting THE STARTERS FROM THE MEGA GENERATION to not get Megas

#

It's fucking stupid and I hate it

graceful osprey
#

I don't want zygarde to get a mega

#

It'd be mega ray all over again

#

I don't want that

sweet crypt
#

||Didn't they leak a Mega Zygarde||

proven geyser
#

instead of buying full heals or condition heals i just have like 50+ of the berry at any given point

graceful osprey
proven geyser
#

no

graceful osprey
#

Delete that

proven geyser
#

i do not see it

graceful osprey
#

Right now

sweet crypt
#

Ok time to spoiler text

proven geyser
#

if i dont see it it's not true

graceful osprey
#

Or put spoiler text

proven geyser
#

just spoiler new leaks in general, dude

graceful osprey
#

||I saw the leaks I just don't want it., mega ray was a nightmare enough already||

sweet crypt
#

I usually do my brain just isn't working rn

graceful osprey
#

I've seen all the leaks

#

I'm excited for one of the leaked mega

sweet crypt
#

||But yeah, wasn't it a Mega of the Complete form? I'm pretty sure it was||

graceful osprey
#

Not so much the other one

sweet crypt
#

||And I am terrified||

graceful osprey
#

Mega cat will be really cool

sweet crypt
#

||Hopefully that means it can only mega evolve after taking enough damage to become Zygarde Complete||

graceful osprey
#

I can say that

#

Cause there's a shitload of cats

#

It leaves it in the air

#

I want mega snorlax

sweet crypt
#

I haven't heard of the cat's stats at all

graceful osprey
#

And I want him to be big the cat

sweet crypt
#

I mean the BST is obvious since yknow

#

Megas

#

But I'm not sure what the stat spread is since I only really know of its existence and not any details

graceful osprey
#

I wonder what the starters will be

sweet crypt
#

I'm betting the new starters would get regional forms and the Kalos starters get megas

#

This is merely a guess though

graceful osprey
#

I feel like they'll do what arceus did and make the kalos starters be wild encounters

#

I want chicorita to get a regional

#

Make it

#

Yknow

#

good

#

I wonder if we still won't have abilities

sweet crypt
#

Kalos starters will be in the wild and will get megas is my assumption

#

If one of those isn't true I am eating a shoe

graceful osprey
#

Actual mega greninja

graceful osprey
sweet crypt
#

It's possible that they overhaul Ash Greninja into the Mega

#

Though, it'd need a 10 BST nerf

graceful osprey
#

I just pray it's not like actual kalos

#

Where you essentially get a legendary at what

#

The 3rd gym?

#

Oras gets a pass

#

It's a remake

sweet crypt
#

I mean, Mega Lucario is an Ubers mon

#

So I can't dispute that

#

Wait I can

#

Because if being as strong/stronger than a legendary made you essentially a legendary

#

Base Altaria is essentially a legendary

#

It is PU and a bunch of Legendaries are ZU

#

mega banette is shiny

#

also have a shiny ariados, ludicolo, corviknight, torterra (spruce), florges, igglybuff, pineco, amoongus, and luxray

#

Seeing a YouTuber I like finally address the leaks and end the short by singing Born This Way is probably going to be my favorite thing for at least another week

#

I swear, finding Lady Gaga in those files is probably the funniest thing to come out of it all. And dozens of times better than the other """jokes""" about leaked stuff.

I think the last time I was playing, I was grinding for iron so I could fence off a tiny little archipelago so I could put some pasture blocks in there

#

Now y'all are making me wonder if there's a similar mod for terraria

icy idol
#

Man, it would be interesting to see the execution for that

graceful osprey
#

Pokemon terraria

#

Huh

icy idol
#

Not the biggest terraria player, but I would play that mod

graceful osprey
#

I love terreria

10/10 game

Calamty is easy

How can you tell?

naive timber

ive been thinkin to get terraria recently

warm dragon

naive timber
#

graceful osprey
#

But ranged requires no brain power

warm dragon

graceful osprey
#

The bosses do though

naive timber
#

oh yea

warm dragon

its like 3 pounds

graceful osprey
#

Supreme calamatis would kick my ass right now

#

Even the providence would

warm dragon
naive timber
#

how long

#

can refund last for

warm dragon
#

i think it gives you 2 hours of playtime

#

and like 2 weeks of owning the game

#

smth like that

naive timber
#

if i bought a ssteam key for it

#

from another website

#

can i still refund or nah

warm dragon
#

it doesnt usually let me

icy idol
#

The reason I’m not really into Terraria that much is because I’m just scared of the creeping biomes

#

I just hate time limits lol

warm dragon
naive timber
#

i played terraria before

#

my friend got too bored

#

it was on console as well

#

he said its 2d minecraft

warm dragon
#

i used to play on console too

#

i put it above minecraft personally

icy idol
graceful osprey
#

I will say

naive timber
#

id prefer mc but terraria still is very good

warm dragon
#

theres so much to do beyond just building and gathering resources

icy idol
#

I would play Terraria instantly if the worlds were endless though

naive timber
#

yea

icy idol
#

That’s the one thing Minecraft does better than terraria

naive timber
#

maybe there is a mod for it

graceful osprey
#

I used to say it was 2d minecreaft as a joke

#

I still do

#

I ask people if they wanna hop on some 2d minecraft

#

I often get told to stop

icy idol
naive timber
#

theres a mod called terra custom

#

which makes the world much bigger

graceful osprey
#

Oh yea

#

A heads up

#

If you wanna play calamity and stuff

tight granite
#

a worse starbound

graceful osprey
#

You have to get Tmodloader

tight granite
naive timber
#

ik about tmod

graceful osprey
#

It's not a mod for the game

#

It's a seperate thing

naive timber
#

is calamity just bascially a whole new mod which adds difficulty and new things

graceful osprey
#

I spent like half a hour for thay

warm dragon
graceful osprey
#

It makes the game better

#

A lot better

#

And that's saying something

icy idol
#

I want to see new things

graceful osprey

Cause base game is already a 10/10

The soundtrack used to be hated

Cause people said terraia didn't need new music for bosses

I think the only game that can actually be endless is minecraft or something that just keeps generating more land

warm dragon
#

yeah but then again there's still limited things you can see

The maker of the soundtracks got bullied and harrased so badly that the comments on YouTube for his videos were disabled

I love bullet hell bosses😍

west depot
# warm dragon yeah fr im sick of seeing villages

Villages are cool but my point is they could have made the generator use different blocks for different types of villages like some modern ones would have brick walls to show it and maybe the houses could have more variety too like more decoration different layouts and stuff like that

Calamity is a lot easier when you have a touhou player with you

Man this calamity mod sounds epic

graceful osprey
#

It is

icy idol
#

But I have too much of a skill issue to ever succeeded in playing it unfortunately

west depot
#

Idk shit about making games but im sure it wouldn't be that hard to make the generator include different blocks

warm dragon
#

i find it crazy that some random modders have done more for minecraft than mojang have done in over a decade

graceful osprey

Lemme get my other second favorite song

Should we...

Move this?

I only play modded Minecraft

To not pokemon chat?

Before we get yelled at

west depot
#

They could have genuinely made a great update out of that idea

warm dragon
#

yeah for sure

#

it couldve gone somewhere

west depot

But no it had to be an April fools joke

graceful osprey
#

Guess that's a no

There is not a single bad song in calamity

They could have atleast used ONE of them and made a new dimension to focus on giving it a new boss battle and a civilization

Question is it even possible to beat bosses in single player in calamity?

And the start is

Have you heard of the getfixedboi seed?

Every challenge seed at once seed?

#

Have you ever watched waffletime

#

He did the seed

#

The seed where you literally start in hell is easier than the start of infurnum

sweet crypt
#

Where his head charge is a really crippling hit

#

But it isn't quite a one shot

#

I've had Infernum DoG runs where I came back from being hit head on by the head early

man, I have been boycotting the main pokemon games since a little before sword and shield came out due to how scummy and money grabby the company had been (and there were some sketchy practices that i don't even remember now...) but I am seeing everyone talk about the newest games and the struggle is real...

#

I wish there was a non-official pokemon bank thing or something crazy like that for emulated games ,-,

coarse estuary
#

idk i think everyone should give the new switch games a chance. not every game has to be the perfect thing for people to want to play it.

alpine crow
#

It's the principle of giving them money when they are litigating insane copyright infringement claims and setting their prices exorbitantly high. I'd love to play the new games, but not if I'm directly supporting them being bullies. So I personally can't justify buying from them, but still yearn for creature collectors, and unfortunately Pokemon has the market cornered as the only AAA monster collector.

coarse estuary
#

meh i still think its worth it. i mean i dont like the direction alphadream went with the mario and luigi series after dream team (minus the sss remake) but i still bought the games and will be buying brothership

proper iris
#

It's called pokemon chest

#

Idk if there's a similar homebrew app for switch but I wouldn't be surprised

#

And at the risk of treading on some rule...
If you don't support a company, you can still consume their content if you sail the high seas 🏴‍☠️

#

Though it will depend on either you getting a copy of a discontinued emulator (bc Nintendo cracked down on the big two a couple weeks ago) or getting a switch jailbroken

alpine crow
#

Hmm yesssss I am researching rn actually. Looks like it is a plausible solution to my dilemma but yeah i also see nintendo doing their stuff again...

#

If my computer wasn't broken I'd point ya the right way to get the last preserved working version of the emu I use. Unfortunately I don't remember where I got the file anymore so you may need to look around a bit

But I think it was version 1.12 of ryujinx

#

Was still working like a charm even after support for it was taken down

So I highly recommend it

It's one of the best things ever

Closest thing we ever got to the "pokemon nintendogs" I've always dreamed of

#

Who knows, maybe now the source code of the games are out, someone could do something like that.

#

... I gotta petting all legendaries at some point

#

Also I just remembered something out of the blue.
Someone saying Luvdisc, "the most pointless pokemon" was actually amazing at contests. Now I'm wondering which other "pointless" pokemon may actually be great in other things than battle.

#

Also i wish I had friends to make poffins with :(

proper iris
#

Wait. Apparently there's unofficial servers that still allow the GTS to work on gens 4 and 5

#

I love this community sometimes

unkempt egret
#

I mean there is sunkern being "anything you want" In HG/SS's pokethon

#

but contests make sense since base stats are completely irrelevant there so movepool is the only thing that matters

proper iris
#

Ooooh true, the pokeathlon was way fun too

unkempt egret
#

pokemon GO might also provide another avenue if you count spinoffs since movepool and "having high defensive stats" is what makes you PvP meta there

#

hence why you get things like azumaril and medicham without huge power, altaria, charjabug, gligar, and (formerly) galarian stunfisk in the top 10

I WAS PLAYING TOO MANY TYPES AND FOUND A SHINY COTTONEE

I NEED TO ENSURE I DONT FUCKING MURDER HIM

proud igloo
#

I tried to Nuzlocke that game but wiped to Flannery.

#

It’s not easy when you are trying to learn all the new types as you go along.

#

Anyway I have been looking into the Teraleak again and it seems there was an interesting Gen 5 move that got scrapped.

proven geyser
#

i didnt even hurt it i just threw balls

proud igloo
#

It’s a fire type move called Melt which functions similar to Soak where it changes the Pokémon’s type. But more specific.

proud igloo
#

But then again I think it’s Fluffy which is immune to Sleep

#

Or is that Dancer?

proven geyser
#

i caught in 2

dance is immune to para

Maybe I should replay it again.

yeah 29 is a prime number

gusty tundra

so i just finished infinite fusions and i'm not quite sure wha to play now. are there other pokemon games you guys might recommend?

#

correct!

And Wattson is not fun to fight with it

#

I was actually playing the game and showing screenshots to a friend.

#

The only types she didn’t like was the political ones. But so far the only one I found was a Snover who was Democrat typed.

#

And that was a obvious Obamasnow joke

#

Anyway Melt

#

It only effects Steel and Ice types

#

As it turns Steel types into Normal types and Ice into Water types.

#

Honestly wondering why they scrapped this move it could have been very useful in competitive play

#

Quite a few Ice types could have benefited from turning into Water types as it’s way more defensive and Steel would no longer be the big laugh at attacks type it is.

#

Heck this move could have stopped Zacian being the dominant wolf it was in Gen 8!

final team in my oras playthrough

only repeats ive used on other teams are sceptile and banette but they are the goats so i couldnt not use them

I do recall that being good as well yea

sweet crypt
#

Honestly I'd be more surprised over Registeel being good than Gligar

#

Eviolite Gligar goes hard

since lock-on is the fastest quick move in the game which helps make up for their high-cost moveset

The Nuzlite is finally close(ish) to an end

#

If Volkner doesn't win, of course

#

And then it's just the elite

coarse estuary
#

ooh close it is. maybe after the nuzlite you could try a nuzlocke

proper iris
#

Eeeh no.

#

This was already stressful enough

#

But i may try some other form of challenge

coarse estuary
#

how could it possibly have been stressful if there was 0 coniquences for anything that happened? can you try to explain it to me

proper iris
#

Oh there are consequences

#

They don't last as long

#

But it can still severely affect my ability to recover from them

#

I've lost almost my entire team at some point, and it was almost impossible to train the few I still had left

#

I get left without the effective mons in big battles bc they're out of commission

#

Not to mention it's a struggle to level up the entire group, and I set as my end-goal that I need all my captured mons to beat the league.

#

And not as an add-on, but as an actual participant

#

Especially on long stretches without story battles, I can be left without anyone who can deal with what's ahead

coarse estuary
#

understandable. at the end of the day you play how you want i just will personally never understand how people will play runs that are just barely not nuzlockes then say nuzlockes are bad or boring or stressful or insert other descriptor

proper iris
#

They're stressful, honestly.

#

But that isn't always a bad thing

#

Challenging things sometimes are stressful, but the stress is worth it for the feeling of achievement

#

And nuzlockes are very valid

#

But doing a nuzlocke just after another challenge run is too much stress in too little time for me, is all

I may do a proper nuzlocke at some point in the future, but not now.

coarse estuary
#

you would never be able to do a genlocke or hatelocke then that would break your stress meter lol

proper iris
#

Probably lmao

#

But that's the fun of self-imposed rules

#

You can tailor them to be as challenging or as easy as you need them

#

... Also next time I'm probably picking a different game bc holy moly, Sinnoh

coarse estuary
#

lol what you are saying reminds me i saw an old reddit post bout it the other day but is it ok if i dont enjoy min maxing for the perfect encounters,ev training and swaping my team out to counter every single important trainer in the gam and i instead enjoy just using what i get and only replacing pokemon when they die so its not a riskless fight every time because ive swapped to the optimal team copisition for the upcoming trainer? the reddit post was claiming the former was the only way to do nuzlockes and any other way was a fraud/wrong nuzlocke.

proud igloo
#

Or even Nuzlocke the difficulty hacks like Emerald Kaizo, Radical Red or Run & Bun

proper iris
#

Bro what on earth was that person on about

coarse estuary
#

thats what i ask my self when i saw it

proper iris
#

Even the OG nuzlocke, Pokemon Ruby Hard Mode, only had two rules and nothing else

#

And that was the charm

#

... Did they ever finish the BW saga in those comics?

proud igloo
#

That person sounds like he’s played way too much Emerald Kaizo.

proud igloo
proper iris
#

Aw man that's awful

coarse estuary
#

i think now there are too many nuzlocke eliteists out there who think if you arent playing the hardest hacks on the hardest modes with the hardest rules ev training and leveling up the perfect team for every single trainer in the game you are playing it wrong. i personally say as long as you follow the 2 basic rules of the nuzlocke there is no wrong way to play. heck i like to play where i cant swap team members out till they die because i find it more fun to have to come up with interesting strats to beat an important trainer then just get the mons that counter said trainer out my box

proper iris
#

Very very valid!

#

Also the attachment you form with the team in the way you play is something else

#

You go through everything together, through thick and thin

coarse estuary
#

like im doing a wedlocke of ultra sun right now and if i played like how the elitests think nuzlockes should be played i would have stoped nuzlocking years ago.

proper iris
#

Aaaaand Volkner is beat!

#

ggs. anyways im headin back to my wedlocke. if yall want updates ill be sure to keep yall posted

if you decide to ignore me i will not hesitate to inform mods you are posting leaks of upcoming games without spoilering it for the people who want to go in blind

proper iris
#

I get your point, but also, "if it happens to be right" bro we're just guessing???
If it happens we were right, that is either coincidence or just pattern recognition. Most likely coincidence bc my pattern recognition sucks.

They'd add a player first

Likely Red.

Either her ash or red

This franchise is pretty obvious when it comes to genetic connections

graceful osprey
#

True

proper iris
#

So if they don't look alike, they're likely not related

graceful osprey
#

The people that say they wanna go in the pokemon world are crazy

#

First off

#

You would die from a bug

#

You are not build differnt like the are

#

People in the pokemon world are casually tanking thunderbolts

#

We would die instantly

proper iris
#

Honestly I'd still want to go. It's cooler than dying from a car crash at least.

#

Or from pneumonia

graceful osprey
#

You would die if something ran into you to hard

proper iris
#

Honestly I still would die if something ran into me too hard irl

graceful osprey

The people from the pokemon world have evolved over time to adapt with pokemon

We have not

#

Yep.

graceful osprey
#

Imagine dieing via a cocoon

#

✅ I have read the terms and conditions

graceful osprey
#

That'd be so embarrassing

proper iris
#

High chances I'll die, but if I don't

graceful osprey
#

Like I'd still go cause I want to pet an umberon and a flareon

#

But I'd probably die

proper iris
#

I can befriend a funky animal

#

So I'd say worth the risk

graceful osprey
#

And you'd also have knowledge about the world

proper iris
#

Yeeee

graceful osprey

What to do and not to do

#

That doesn't stop a shinx quick attacking your chest though

pretty sure the specifics of moves wouldn't apply in a "real life" pokemon situation

my crack theory is that in PLZA we witness like.. idk the destruction of southern kalos or smthn. considering the beeg spiky area in paldea isn't kitakami one can only assume it has to connect to kalos so maybe it was destroyed by zygarde somehow? idk :/

Plza?

What's a plaza?

anyway i would def be a bug keeper

graceful osprey

I'd be an eevee only user

Except for sylveon

frigid copper
graceful osprey
#

It would 100% kill me without meaning to

#

Sylveons flesh ribbons are to strong

proven geyser
#

a lot of bugs seem to be poison but tbh i have very high constitution so i can probably just grow pecha berries and tank it

frigid copper
#

if I was in pokemon my team would indeed be gourgeist, gholdengo, jellicent, hisuian zoruark, frosslass, and mimikyu that's just how the cookie crumbles

graceful osprey

GOOD LUCK

proven geyser

yeah but would you be able to keep them without them killing you

Getting a hisiaun zoura ALONE would probably get you killed

The pokemon world is 100% advanced enough to have something like that

You'd also need something else for steel types

or just bring a pokemon with a dark move

Flashbang, I choose you!

proven geyser

eevee learns bite and froslass has negative defense ur fine

I want to know if this would work

Just throw a flashbang then run for your life

#

Yea but

#

Even if I raised it from an egg

#

I still wouldn't trust a froslass

#

At the end of the day even if they are extremely intelligent they are still animals with instincts

#

Also gardevoir is just a no

#

I don't need someone who can make black holes

I appreciate the gesture but it would probably end up hurting me more than helping

There's no gaurentee your pokemon would even like you
