My Tapu Fini sucks right now
Salazzle by itself is not as reliable as one would hope, since Eternatus is unbelievably faster than it
I almost have enough for Fini's passive tho
Eternatus is an extremely fast Pokemon
I know. I think endgame the only pokemon I've had that outspeeds that stupid fucker are Greninja and Meowscarada
This whale sized mf has 130 fucking speed
And Meowscarada has to be Jolly with as many vitamins down its throat as I can shove
Greninja actually has like
Less speed than Meowscarada when it isn't Ash Gren I think
Yeah, 122 and 123
Both should need vitamins or Soul Dews or X Speed to outspeed base Eternatus
But yeah Eternatus is freakishly fast
Tbf, in phase 2 bro probably already has at least +1 speed
And Eternatus is always neutral nature
So if your Soul Dew was on Speed, it does NOT matter if it gets stolen
Oh okay
A strategy I see some people try to use for Eternatus is fusing Heatran and a Fairy type
Fairy/Steel with Flash Fire walls the shit out of Eternatus
There's a very major issue here however
Greninja is timid I should move Lucario's Soul Dew to him
2, even
1: Heatran's a legendary, and expensive as fuck
2: DNA Splicers do not exist
By that I mean basing a strategy around getting one is extremely stupid
(Flashbacks to Tinkaton getting one shot by Flamethrower)
Because they're so rare
Also, base Heatran probably solos Eternatus anyways
It still resists Dragon and is fat as hell
I think I have a Heatran but I've never used it lol
And I think it has Recover as an egg move, too?
Unsure 
Magma Storm + Recover and I'd imagine Heatran could solo
Possibly. Idk I think I have it but have never used it 
I probably am just gonna spend most of my time gathering candies before aiming for Eternatus' second defeat
I barely see anyone use Heatran, I wonder why?
I mean, great stats, great type, great ability, great passive, good egg moves, good normal moves
You get the idea
Heatran has 2 weaknesses when you have its Passive unlocked
Fighting, and Mold Breaker Excadrill
Earth Eater is crazy
I'd test it out for myself but I don't have all unlocks yet
Maybe that's why, actually
That's a common issue I face with a lot of Pokemon
Once I get Tapu's passive I might go for Heatran cause Earth Eater is good. Legendaries are just annoying to get candies for
Mainly Legendaries
She needs two more for the passive,,,
I want Contrary on Enamorus so I can spam Fairy Aura Contrary Fleur Cannon, is that so much to ask for?
It is XD
Fini's probably already serviceable with Fairy Aura, but it really starts getting crazy when you get Quiver Dance and Recover on it
Earth Power's good too
Springtide Storm... Well, it exists
It's uhh
Better than using like
Idk, what Fairy move does Fini start with?
Probably Fairy Wind or something idk
o
I had that a few runs back in a run where I was grinding furfrou rofl
Yeah I have Earth Power and need candies to get the others prolly
But like this is basically the same fucking stats as Stone Edge
got the "hyper training!" event in the wave 160-170 range and somehow KO'ed enam to get contrary unlocked
And at least Stone Edge doesn't have competition
Why do you ever run Springtide Storm over Moonblast?
So that you can miss both opponents at the same time?
And then run out of PP?
I was gonna say "because turtle form misses contrary" but you said moonblast rofl
I love that event until I have a mon with a shitty HA
I would love it right now because I want adaptability on my Porygon Z
No, get that garbage off my moveslot
in moonblast's case yea basically
I'm referring to Fini here
ah
Except even with Enamorus it's garbo
thought enam again since I also ran into that issue on enam
Genuinely just use Moonblast
Hello Regi
at least if you bonk up and make her go turtle you can just undo that a wave later
Springtide may technically target both opponents but it really just targets neither
Tbh it may be worth to get the Reveal Glass anyways specifically to make it more likely to get other Rogue Items
Ooh, this is probably a run where Multi Lens doesn't actively sabotage me
the only situations I can think of are 3x wide lens (so you're trading 5 base power for 5 base accuracy - not a good exchange) or rain teams (which begs the question, why are you using enam on a rain team)
I sure do love doing 3 bars to Mega Rayquaza instead of 4 and suddenly being at risk of getting swept
Eww it's -atk get that shit away from me
and then rayquaza also missed because lol hurrcane
"I wouldn't have minded it but he missed!"
"so anyway..."
Multi Lens is just a fraud item in Classic if you aren't running a stat boosting move or a flinching move
if you do put it on something with those attributes tho (lunrantis rofl) then it does go hard but yea it's pretty niche
Tbh it's been a fraud item since even before its rework
In Classic I mean
In Endless I heard it went crazy
usually if I get it, it's usually just slapped on whatever has mud slap that's intended to blow itself up on etern for the -accuracy
But it was even worse in Classic before the rework than it is now
Because you're straight up losing damage even ignoring boss bars
trying to think of an item that'd be a worse pick if you weren't building for it outside of a bad mint in a soul dew run
DNA Splicers
that might just be me since I'm almost always happy to get DNA splicers rofl
my other guess would be lures but those only have a chance of messing you up
Every time I get DNA Splicers, I look at my team, go "OK, so basically I'm ruining the run if I use this" and pick something else
meanwhile for me I usually just pick two of the shiny sticks and go "I now pronounce you +6 luck and a free team slot"
It's only use is for shiny stacking in Endless and creating the ultimate Stallmon
I see like 1 Shiny every like 15 Classic runs
or I was banking on it resulting in crap like golurk/delcatty with entrainment normalize rofl
I'm NOT shiny stacking for shit at all
yea shiny charm is very much a tease outside of endless
especially since the last two classic mode shinies I found were charmless
I also don't really ever have a Pokemon whose only purpose is to be Shiny
my team comp is usually carry, backup carry, dugtrio/araquanid/eldegoss/rapidash for the +12 luck rofl
Tapu Fini, which I always bring to guarantee a won run if the main carry ends up being garbage, cannot afford to be fused whatsoever
with the last four usually being thrown out of the blimp starting at about wave 150 or so whenever I find something medalless in the wild
Linoone needs to retain Pickup (main ability), Ambipom needs to retain Pickup (main ability), Sableye needs to retain Prankster (main ability) and the Ghost type
And my 6th slot is a backup carry for matchups the Main Carry and Fini may struggle in
And thus also can't afford to be fused
Nobody is compatible at all
so it's usually dash/duggs since rapid wants magic guard and cares little for its actual ability
Nobody here is compatible at all
I repeated myself because I forgot I typed the same message 10 seconds ago, am I cooked?
"teach the rapidash how to duggy" and you're fine on that since it's more elaborating on the point
I guess if I was really minmaxing
Uhh
Does Sableye pass on the Ghost type with Prankster?
actually you say pickup I should see gourgeist's cost
since I can now use that too in place of eldegoss which contributes sappy seed and basically nothing else
OK it does
So I could run like
Sableye
And then a Pokemon with Pickup as the passive
And then those would be compatible for fusion
Since I keep Pickup and Prankster and the Ghost type
shame I don't have gourgeist's rare move which is... sappy seed.
But then what even goes in the free slot? It's not like I even need anything else to win
Another Pickup mon?
I love when all the berries I've stolen activate at the same time XD
its a good feeling
Wait what the fuck? Why is Floaty Fall suddenly Fly
Last time I used Gligar, Fly was Floaty Fall
Smogon loves Stall
Okay I have a legit question now. How does Endless work? After about 20 floors the pokemon are 10 levels above me. Is there seriously no way to keep up with the levels of the encounters?
IT WAS
I have no want to use it now because I hate using 2 turn moves
extremeley loud incorrect buzzer
Guys is there a way to shiny hunt darkrai and shamin in normal pokemon games without the items in bd & sp
basicaly you're gonna need to catch pokemon to survive until about floor... 200 or so? there's a point were you start breaking past but I forget where
That's stupid =_=
make sure you still keep 3-4 of your starting team though, including your carry. breaking past the 250 barrier is rough though
The main idea behind this is to milk Poison Heal and Toxic for as long as you possibly can
Since Gliscor's not exactly an offensive threat
You'd think that massive pincers and a stinging tail would equal to good attack but it's only 95
I'm not using it for endless lol
I just showed to complain about Floaty Fall changing XD
finally going for the shiny living dex
Why the hell do I have these shinies where did I get them LOL
well i was just wandering around waiting and i found a shiny rufflet- LOL
All my foreign dittos are shiny lmao
I think my friend gave them to me and I don't need 3 so you can have one. Free.
oh seriously? you're a legend
My breeder ditto is a shiny foreign 6 IV ditto that I got from a wonder trade over a decade ago. 100% chance it’s hacked in and I don’t give a fuck 
no fr i was trying to wander trade for one and in 3/4 wonder trades, i got 2 hacked shinies
Nacli go away
I use it for my IV breeding and my masuda method 
literally the first one was a hacked shiny
damnn smart
It’s pretty common 
im just tryna get my mesuda shinies
cuz i am NOT getting the starters with the base shiny charm odds 🥀
I swap between dittos for my Masuda as half the mons I breed are foreigns obtained from surprise trades
So I was breeding a Mudkip for a 6 IV one, didn’t give a shit about shiny because I have like 6 shiny mudkips and ended up hatching a shiny with 5 perfect IVs 
oh damnnn
DAMN
we able to set up a link trade rq btw?
Yep!
I’d recommend taking that to DMs so that nobody tries to fuck with y’all 
yeee i was boutta say
I should also start playing s/v again

whoops i think my other 2 are still in home- 😭
Me: I should legit play this game again
Also me: Flies to academy to run around as my pokemon
RIP
Least that's a quick grab tho
LMAO real
true !
imma see just how many eggs this takes
imma just hatch the other ones first
I remember shiny hunting Hisui Zorua using Masuda. 100 eggs in I said fuck it and found one in Legends instead
In under an hour I found two
Legends Arceus is so much easier to shiny hunt in
TRUTH
And the chances just go up passively as you use the mon
Ong
otherwise i'd be hunting there
Running around as a Cheeto Lycanroc who got dyed blue for fun
I love all three lycanroc shinies are blue
its so cool !
My only gripe about the synchro machine is you can only use it at the blueberry academy
Let me roam area zero as walking wake
or that
YEAH LEMME BE RAY
oh god i hope not
At least there are sammiches to speed up hatching
indeed
and breeding
i think
unless im stupid and dont know how egg power works
Sammiches give egg power I believe
mmm samich
Running around all the biomes assaulting all the wild pokemon as a dinosaur
incredible
Anyway imma eat lunch and watch a movie. Laterrrr
from what I recall the PB&J line gives egg power and is reasonably cheap to make
Does anyone have oaks letter and member card they can trade I wanna shiny hunt darkrai and shamin
It does it not work like that
Event items can't be traded
I believe they count as key items
How do you shiny hunt them 2 bc I want them so much 😅
What games is that
Idk it's been awhile
I don’t have a 3ds so shining pearl and brilliant diamond are the only ones technically with them in
That’s shiny huntable
Ahh gotcha
I'd trade you mine if I could but since they're key items there's not much I can do
That’s so annoying bc I had the games when it was out but never got it
What games on a 3ds even have darkrai bc I thought pearl and diamond also was also a limited hunt
Diamond/pearl/platinum can all be played on 3DS but you can cheat in the event items
What do u need to do to cheat them in
A modded 3DS or action replay
Can u mod the items in on sp and bd
You could technically just cheat in the shinies but that’s not as rewarding
No
BDSP is on the switch so it’s a lot harder to cheat and mod
I wish there was a way for me to get them but I think the only way is trading for the shiny itself
But that means having shinies people want
But I’m a beginner hunter
Yea, you either need to have the event item for BDSP or cheat in the event item in dppt
I don’t remember if I have a shiny Darkrai personally
I think I do
Actually he’s not in diamond/pearl it looks like so you’d need platinum
Nevermind, I have a few 
B/W was the first game with the shiny lock but I think either gen 6 or 7 was the first one to lock the starters?
from what I recall BDSP doesn't lock the starters though
SR'ing in gen 7 though is agony since from what I recall there's a solid 3-5 minutes before you can even check for nature rofl
yea darkrai isn't too tricky to obtain shiny since it's a raid boss in GO at least (same with Genesect and I think hoopa? I forget if hoopa's shiny is out)
So do you guys remember that really mid Pokémon puzzle game Pokémon Friends? Well, apparently it was an asset flip of another game made by the same developer called Think Think. If you just want to see the part of the video where the game being an asset flip is discussed, the time stamp is 23:00

Bc what that’s shocking
I wanna do the shiny national dex but it seems like it ain’t happening
Bringing up PLA. What should I shiny hunt
After I get re-aquainted with the controls
I say vulpix since I found a good one in GO earlier
rejuvenation chapter like 7-8 spoilers, forgot how much I loved ||Saki||
Very well. I'll have to go on a fox hunt
For now I'll huntn Aguav berries when there are no foxes
nice nice
I think like 3 of them are hacked wonder trade ones tbh.
Damn
I delete them
Bc I want them all to be proper shinies
Back when it was wonder trade you don't know if they're hacked because they didn't have website names or OTs
If I got one of them I would lowk keep it
Bc like I can’t get him
I just got a shiny alpha houndoom
Nice! I've never found a shiny alpha
I have 6
I have a shiny alpha sylveon but that was given to me as an eevee
2 fletchenders a houndoom 2 litleo a pares and a blissey
Want a shiny
I'm not on ZA
Don’t think they are on za
I'm on Arceus
Damn
Sad
I mostly shiny hunt on that
I'm shiny hunting on arceus as we speak
Someone told me to go for Vulpix so I'm just beating up pokemon for Aguav berries till Vulpix spawns
Legendaries are shiny locked in PLA
These one that’s not
It’s from Pokemon home
Oh. I have shinies of all the sinnoh gods
I'm also playing as baby Cyrus because why not
I want them so bad but lost my pokemon sword card so can’t
The shiny is terrible
Baby Cyrus
Damn
I just run around with my shiny gardivour checking only the first spawns of mmo
Absolutely love this shiny
How many hours u got on this game
I use digital copies
~~Legends ZA stuff goes in #pokemon-winds-waves ~~
Same
I just was saying I love the shiny I wasn’t talking about legend za
I think they were just showing shiny mega gengar yeah
I wish the whole line looked like it
I’m now on la
Short people problems (RIP Flareon)
Idk how many I've got
Hello shiny alpha monferno
I'm done going for a specific pokemon so I'll just choose something when I travel to the map
Damn I wish
This living dex is gonna be the death of me
This is where u see playtime btw
I'll check momentarily
Do u got charm?
yes
I have yet to try getting a shiny Eevee in Legends Arceus.
Ima probably get it in scarlet masudo method
I don't have an Eevee for the breeding in Scarlet and Violet, but I could try getting a shiny Eevee in there without it.
(If I wanted to lose my sanity)
I can trade u one
Eevee's easy to get in S/V as its spawn is pretty set
I just breed a vaporeon
I just have bad luck with finding Eevees, which is why I don't try hunting for one with sandwiches.(And also the fact that I do not like the tera raids and only have a switch 1 to shiny hunt on)
Just get the static sylveon
And breed it
Static Sylveon?
These a static spawning sylveon
I am able to find Eevees, it just takes a bit longer for me to find them than it does for other people.
Ohhhhh
I actually do need to beat the game and its DLC again though.
I have the dlc for violet but I play scarlet
Because I reset my save a few times.
I bought the wrong one
Oh, that's not great.
I have violet and I’m glad but I just don’t play it lol scarlet is just better for me
I have played the full game and DLC of Scarlet twice.
God damn
I beat it as a normal playthrough once and then beat it again with only Eeveelutions.
I haven’t beat the dlc once
Have u gotten the shiny mythic from getting all the dex in pokemon home
Nope.
I’m currently on the grind for it
I have only played a few Pokemon games and don't have the correct ones to complete the dex.
I just ask my friend for the exclusive bc she has all the games except both the legends
If you still have a 3DS, have Bank installed on it and have the nessecary game cartriges, you can transfer from Bank to Home
You can't put Bank on a 3DS anymore, it has to be on there already
my ass out here shinymaxxing on pokerogue to hopefully get more viable shinies
a shiny regi would make me a very happy boy
YEAAAA BABY
only wave 21
If you were talking to me, I don't have a 3DS.
Question: is there a way to get the other starters in za like how in arceus you could find them in time space distortion
If not is there anyone with an extra chikorita and/or tepig they'd be willing to trade me
#pokemon-winds-waves , but also, they're postgame
Guys is masudo method or outbreak method better with 60 kills in scarlet and violet
Idk how to get herba mystica for level 3 sandwich’s
What are some other romhacks I should take a look at?
Currently playing through Unbound, and just starting Fusion but there's quite a bit so figured I'd ask here ❤️
Y oh y Pokeman....you make me hax you just get what should already be there...... Vivillon's other 18 colors.
Have fun with that.
How does synchronize work with Toxic poison?
If you toxic it do you get normal poison or toxic poison in return
Does anyone know
as far as I know, it should be toxic
It didnt matter in this context cause it was a gliscor which has toxic heal anyways
I just got curious
Should be Toxic
Also, Gliscor gaming
Was it like Nasty Plot or something
Can it even get NP in RandBats this gen?
I usually see it being Hazards nowadays it feels
It didnt even set up
Turn 1, I click toxic, he click psychic
Crit, ded
It can though
It has like a physical set a special set and a harzards set
LO or nah?
Lo what
Either ways crit probably mattered
Life Orb
love how broken double battles are in rogue
this claydol just used hyper beam on their friendly macargo
They do that sometimes
bro looks like one of them gum hay bales
i can never tell if one of these fuckers are shiny until their hp shows up
Should I replace triple axle with shadow claw for spontaneous ghost type?
what are your other moves?
Shiny is black fur, white skin
Pretty obvious if you know what you're looking for
oh ok, thanks
Probably not
Since Triple Axel hits hard
And Shadow Claw doesn't
It does I was more thinking Protean use
STAB Taxel is nice though
And I am not ditching Leafage (It's not powerful but it gives grass stab even though everything is stab with Protean lol)
If the rival doesn't have a Water starter you probably could ditch it until Flower Trick
I'll keep triple axel then :X Prolly teach shadow claw to riolu who ALSO doesn't need it since he has his passive
Otherwise yeah may as well keep it
Idk what starter he has
Triple axel for the sky noodle rival has
Yeah. I'd overwritten triple axel with play rough cause I liked Fire Lash too much to give it up but Greninja filled the Ice move role
On my last playthrough
Idk though Taxel's ~70% feels like a lot higher than Focus Blast or Hurricane's 70%
Somehow all of these feel more accurate than Play Rough's 90%, Zen Headbutt's 90% or Springtide Storm's 80%
If I can get a Wide Lens for Meowscarada it works pretty reliably
Rng is a very interesting thing
He does have a water stater. A Piplup lol.
I swear the 90% in Play Rough's accuracy refers to the miss chance
late but the tier 2 (red fur) and tier 3 (||based on the eeveelutions, depends on trim||) shinies are also pretty distinct on furf
Fraud fucking move
"if it ain't 100% it's 50%"
"more like if it ain't 100% then I don't trust it"
if it aint 100 im suspicious when i use it
Play Rough hits 9.5 times/10
I would use a 100% accurate move in its place but a dark type becoming a fucking fairy type is SO good
Anything becoming fairy is typically pretty good
True lol
at least in pokerogue you can just grab two wide lenses and not worry about that
I feel bad I quickly regretted my choice of sending Popplio out against a paldea tauros and had to use my poor zigzagoon to safely switch into Sprig lol
TRUTH
actually I forget if pokerogue has the dumb thing that vanilla does where wide lens can't raise a move's accuracy up to 100%, only 99%
(interestingly, zoom lens is not subject to that rule and can make a move 100% accurate, provided it has at least 85% accuracy and you move second)
I don't think zoom lens is in pokerogue either
probably because "going second" is generally not something you want to be doing in this game
Finn gave me two shiny charms... watch me find no shinies
EUGH I have Team Skull as my evil team... I'll try anyway
I'm pretty sure it can, though?
I'm like 99% sure that 95% accurate moves will be perfectly accurate with it
Just that no other move becomes 100% accurate with it
Because it boosts the accuracy of moves by 10%, and 10% of 90 is 9
Pokerogue raises it by a flat 5%
Not 5% of the move's accuracy, just 5
And it can go to 100%
Having the aces of a Meowscarada and a Greninja vs a First Impression Golisopod and Buzzwole does not sound like a fun time
Yes, First Impression is an egg move of Buzzwole
yea I did notice that wording change in pokerogue so it probably can raise it to 100% in pokerogue
Riolu finally evolving. He usually evolves around level 20 so level 34 is annoying
And I don't think I've ever seen Guzma drop that specific egg move on it
while vanilla caps it at 99% which is only relevant if you use it with moves at 95% accuracy
No way that's actually true that'd be so dumb if it is
He doesn't. He's just walled my entire team every time I've fought him
His fucking genesect outspeeds and walls me
I like pink primarina
"Trickster wants to learn Night Slash"
Me: Looks at Wicked Blow Nah
Showdown doesn't cap it at 99%
I still need to check in-game but I remember reading on bulb that it capped at 99%
actually that's easy to check in-game one moment to try it in scarlet
I don't see it on there now
could be like that "eviolite nerf" thing that got so pervasive with IF but turned out to be incorrect
Okay so Lucario's moveset is currently
- Blaze Kick
- Metal Claw
- Shadow Claw
- Thunderus Kick
I plan on ditching Metal Claw for Meteor Mash and Shadow Claw for E Speed. So I should pass on Swords Dance right?
which I assume was because people didn't like that the actual eviolite nerf was to just move it farther into the game rofl
I can replace Shadow Claw with SD since, again, he doesn't need it. Shoulda seen me kick a fucking spiritomb out of existence XD
WITH Thundurus Kick. It felt so nice
"brute bonnet used spore" ah yes I see an issue with this test
I usually like having Swords Dance
Because I love having the power to fucking blow up anything that doesn't resist my STABs
Yeah I went ahead and threw away Shadow Claw for it and I might sack Blaze Kick for E-Speed
Hello adamant nature Metang welcome to the team
that's two raids without fury cutter missing so I may have either been misled by a wiki vandal or mistook what happened with 90% moves as also happening to 95% onces since even google isn't saying anything about it
now I'm more confused on if fury cutter still keeps its boost after you hit yourself in confusion
MY FAVORITE ULTRA BEAST
Pfft Metagross and Lucario learned meteor mash back to back
CMERE BABY
Hello Guzzlord
besides the nature, im pretty sure thats a DAMN good guzzlord
ive been doing double battles all run for max shiny chances, all hail the triple lure
That's prolly perfect for guzzlord actually as it has no defenses
2 shinies and 2 legendaries for this run at wave 90, i think its going well!
It's mixed attack and sp atk
I'm at wave 70 with 2 shiny charms and no shinies XD
i also have S+ luck
thats why iron moth is here, i generally dont reuse pokemon ive already beaten classic with
reckon endless has the shiny chances too?
I try not to. I'm using Meowscarada because it helps me but everyone else I haven't beaten classic with
Idk I rarely make it past floor 30 XD
On Endless
dont suppose it matters, endless doesnt have ivy so no shiny charms
just makes more sense to grind classic runs for shinies
also apparently lunatone gets revelation dance, so i get a 90 power stab special rock type move
e
pretty pog
Lol I have item boosters for 3/4 of Meowscarada's stabs lol. She has charcoal, miracle seed, and black glasses. All she needs is a Fairy Feather XD
im surprised gems and alike arent in the game
I hate how events where you find more than one item such as the berry bush don't ACTUALLY give you multiple items. You have to choose one
You do get multiple berries apart from the ones in the rewards screen
Anyways, hosting a draft league, I have 0 clue how someone managed to get away with this but they did
Oh you do? Do they just auto attach to the pokemon?
Yup
Tbf it does get suspicious when it says something like "You managed to snatch 2 berries before getting away!" and then you get like 6 berries in the rewards screen
Fair
Anyways someone in the server told me that I should ask people who aren't experienced in draft who they think would win because it'd be funny
Oh thanks Finn for tera-ing your Empoleon into a water type in the face of my grass cat (I love how protean fucks with the AI)
"Oh now it's fairy type now I can kill it with my steel type"
So here
We got amazing team names like The Tax Evaders and L.O.S.E.R.S
It's amazing
Lol Tax Evaders
Why is Sobble evading taxes
Okay I just stuffed berries down a Fearow's throat and it joined my team. Jolly, Hidden Ability, and I'm 90% sure it has two egg moves (Floaty Fall and Triple Arrows)
I don't wanna replace anyone but it's cool lol
Why not?
Fair enough
Round 9 Spectrier draft is absurd btw
DAMN Nice!
How the hell did sentries get a bajillion future paradoxes
Shiny Lucario, nice. Next run trying to get Lucario some candies I'll make him yellow
This is what Regal_Serperior AKA L.O.S.E.R.S has to say on this situation
lol
Ignore the fact that it's past midnight for me that's just normal I'm nocturnal
"the reason why we allowed this is because Pincurchin is Bad"
XD
I want Oricorio to give me revelation dance as I fucking hate moves that hit my pal
"Pidgeot used Hurricane. Siren was confused"
"Pidgeot used hurricane. Siren hit itself in confusion"
"Pidgeot used Hurricane. Hurricane missed. SIREN HURT ITSELF IN CONFUSION"
What the actual fuck with this RNG
Unfortunate doesn't begin to describe it
Oh wait there's more
There was one more "Pidgeot used hurricane. Siren hit itself in confusion"
XD
I'm here like wtf
This is what happens when I try to use a mon that isn't my cat, my dog, or my metal beast
Guzma is down...
NOOO NOT GUZMA
BRO THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I'VE BEAT HIM
His genesect usually walls me but he switched in on a Fire Lash
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Also Metagross is now mega. I was hoping for Lucario with adaptability but I will TAKE IT
Tough Claws is just nice :)
im a ribombee fan all the way for webs
But galvantula has it's uses
Not very wise
Yess Revelation dance I can finally get rid of Aria
Which one
Level 182. Currently fighting Hala
It's probably Hau
A wee bit annoying
OK, Hau leads with A-Raichu and Kukui leads with Lycanroc
So leading with a Ground type would be preferable
Actually, Meowscarada no diffs both
Nvm we win these
I wish I hadn't switched out. Hala was stupid and tera fighting his fire cat in front of an already fairy type cat
Pfft
Hala sends in Inceneroar to deny my Zen Headbutt any effectivess. I decide not to switch out because I already knew he was gonna tera fighting XD
Mega Metagross fucking one-shot it
We love the AI using 0 braincells
RIGHT?
triple S luck for the first time too
My only regret for Metagross is that to have a move that isn't absolutely wack, you need the TM for Psychic Fangs
Mega Metagross essentially sweeping his team.
gonna shovel rare candies into it until its caught up
Who tf made Zen Headbutt 90% accurate
I used Primarina for his first mon (Hariyama) because I had nobody else to take a heat crash to the face
Like actually who decided to make Zen Headbutt 80 BP and not even be fully accurate for it
And with a not even good flinch rate
I have not missed a single zen headbutt this whole battle
And then they made an actually good physical Psychic move and gave it to like 30% of the Pokemon that needed one
The only one that didn't work was the one he switched Inceneroar in on
the zennest headbutt
Thanks Gamefreak
does this count as another legend?
No
Rotom was never a legendary, if it was I'd laugh at it daily
Luxray is a legend in all our hearts
Not because it's bad
It's actually quite good
But because it only has 520 BST
Which is hilariously low
(Just wish he had a better non-recoil electric move)
Well, for a Legendary
For a normal Pokemon it's more than sufficient
And you can clearly see that in the performances of Heatom and especially Washtom
Unironically stronger than most legendaries
Sends in probopass on a revelation dance. Loses 2/3 of its HP but gains some baby health by sitrus berry. Tera rocks infront of a fucking water revelation dance
just get in the ball bruh i aint dealing with you
The rev dance was water which made it funnier
Primarina would sweep if she had a sitrus berry. I'll prolly rev her with Pawmot
Oh it's not Hau it's Kukui
BURNING DUSK LYCANROC IS HUGE
Who in their right mind gave Rayquaza Oblivion Wing. He's never had that before
Yay he ran out of PP for it lol
It's an egg move
Personally though, I don't use it
Because I usually run Ddance anyways
Finn has never used it before lol
For further information, the 4 moves a Pokemon has are mostly random
And can be any level up, TM or (Pokerogue) Egg Move
Gotcha
If the game hates you, you'll have to fight Geeta's Rising Voltage Miraidon
Which if I'm being honest is probably an instawipe for you
Also I got mega Lucario directly before eternatus
That Miraidon's a fucking menace even without Rising Voltage
Autocorrect that wasn't even a word why did you autocorrect to whatever the shit that was
I genuinely don't know how to beat Miraidon on an early-mid game save
I just use my OP max unlock shit and kill it dead
It also gets Frost Breath
Which is the 2nd major move it gets
The others aren't as terrifying, just Spacial Rend and Clangorous Soul
Clangorous Soul can be punished, and Spacial Rend isn't as absurd of an upgrade as Edrift->Rising Voltage
Thankfully, Eternatus has a set moveset
It has Eternabeam, Sludge Bomb, Flamethrower and Cosmic Power in base
As Eternamax, it has Dynamax Cannon, Cross Poison, Flamethrower and exactly 1 use of Recover
Iirc it also used to keep Cosmic Power
But I haven't seen it in ages
Yes, that is 5 moves
leech life out here turning psychic and dark types into juice boxes
I dont usually find myself running Leech Life on Araquanid, I usually just run all 4 Egg Moves
With the logic being "Bro I don't fucking need coverage I have Water Bubble Tinted Lens"
And Silk Trap is nice for Double Battles if you can't OHKO both Pokemon quickly enough and they actually can hurt Araquanid
I'm not even going to finish this eternatus battle. He's not even max form and half my team is already dead
Not very nice for making it faster than things though
legendary egg from the shiny machine, heres to hopin
its on kabutops
Araquanid is so slow that I barely find myself outspeeding stuff even with +1 from Aqua Step and with the opponent at -1 from Silk Trap
Thankfully, Jet Punch
Ah, ok
Mb
Spamming +2 Jet Punch on Araquanid is so funny
Well I'll try. I restarted it lol
Eternatus is a weird guy
Because with the wrong Pokemon it may be impossible
But with the right Pokemon, you wouldn't be able to lose if you tried
Genuinely I think it'd take more effort to lose vs Eternatus with Lugia especially than it would take to win
And most Calm Minders do the same, to lesser extents
I WON
Eternatus' tiny brain usually can't comprehend using Cross Poison and even if it can Cross Poison's a weak move and Eternatus' attack isn't absurdly crazy
OMG I ACTUALLY WON
Ggs
Mega Lucario
Mega Metagross (That find came in CLUTCH)
Porygon-Z
Meowscarada
Primarina
Pawmot
Cannot believe Pawmot tanked an eterna beam and was able to revive Metagross lol
That rat's built different
I tera'd Primarina to make sure he wouldn't cross poison her
The Moonblast helped a lot
It more so guarantees that its Cross Poisons won't do much because I'm not even sure if Eternatus looks at the type chart to pick its moves
The number of times it has used a Dragon move vs a Fairy Type or a Poison move vs a Steel type for me is staggering
It does for Flamethrower 
Mainly as Eternamax I should clarify
AHH Gotcha
Base Eternatus does actually usually use its best move
In fact, it even takes Misty Terrain reducing Dragon damage into account
I love how he ignored Meowscarada and focused on everyone else I sent out and then went "Oh shit this cat's doing a lot of damage I should kill it" a little too late XD
It does that a lot
Target the wrong Pokemon and lose as a result
Metagross helped but finding adaptability porygon z was really good
Eternamax's AI may be the most flawed out of any major battle
Anyways, random question!
Oh?
What is the 19th type concept that you think is the best?
Stellar does not count as a type because it sucks ass
I think Tera Stellar's only used more than Tera Psychic for Tera Types
Hmm 
I don't know honestly
It's only useful on Terapagos
That's more so because Terapagos is forced to use it than anything else
Light type so I can have the true kingdom hearts experience /j
And I guess it's like
True
A secondary option for Contrary mons
But not even a primary one
I feel like you're more likely to see Fire or Rock on Serperior, for example
I feel like it's good for the same reason Protean is good. Spontaneously changing your type to f up your opponent. Which makes Stellar type worse in comparison
Anyways, I think Light would be the best candidate
BY that
I mean Lunala's Psychic Type is ass
And it pisses me off
So I want it gone
Also, it nerfs the Fairy type
Because now it no longer has a Spread move
L bozo
Changes could include stuff like making Dgleam, Light Screen, Reflect etc Light type
Yessss
As well as some signature moves like Photon Geyser/Prismatic Laser, Luster Purge/Mist Ball and Lumina Crash
And changing their respective user's types
Woah, look at that, I removed Latios' major drawback type at the same time
I'm really just doing all these Pokemon a favour
Espathra can be Psychic/Light since it does have esper in its name
And also, that way it can keep Stored Power shenanigans
Do you think they'll actually make new types? Like anymore than Fairy
Realistically, no
Stellar doesn't count I agree
That said, there was a 4 generation gap between Steel+Dark and Fairy
So it isn't entirely impossible
I really think since they changed the typings when they made Fairy there are mons that deserve a type change
Give Luxray the dark type it deserves
Luxray doesn't fit the Dark type apart from looking edgy imo
He gets a lot of dark type moves
However, Cresselia and Musharna should've been Psychic/Fairy
Cresselia really should have been fairy
The moon is extremely heavily linked to the Fairy type in Pokemon
CONSIDERING IT CAN LEARN FUCKING MOONBLAST
I dont think either should lose their Psychic types
Since that represents dreams
But they should have both
Maybe they changed it because there are like 5 other psychic/fairies
Speaking of Fairy being the Moon type, Lunala should be Ghost/Fairy
And I will never change my mind on this
Speaking of that. Galarian Rapidash should not have been part psychic
Screw alchemy, screw light, make Lunala the MOONE Pokemon a Fairy Type
RIGHT?
My GOAT deserves so much better than a type that only serves to make the Ghost type worse
Thankfully she's, as I mentioned, the GOAT, so she's good anyways
Tbh Psychic in general has fallen off the face of the earth
Lunala and Shadow Rider are both good pokemon but their typing gives them two 4x weaknesses
I genuinely don't think there's a single situation where Psychic is in like, the top 3rd of types you want on a type combo
Whereas Bug and Grass probably have like 1-3
And Ice too
And Rock too
And all these other types people usually hail as the worst
Take flying away. Give Lugia the water type he deserves
But no, Expanding Force makes Psychic Type amazing
Even though not every Psychic Type even has the move
Hugs my fav ice types
a third charm has made itself known
PFFT
Including the first Psychic Type that ever had Psychic Surge
But tbf
Tapu Lele with Expanding Force
Would be CATACLYSMIC
Downright evil
The world would collapse in on itself
And I have proven that by doing a Tapu Lele run in Pokerogue
Do more pokemon get Geomancy in rouge?
Iirc it one shot Eternamax through all its boss bars
I know Geomancy Xerneas is diabolical
Yes, Aurorus for example
Nice
One of the most impressive feats a Pokemon can do tbh
radical (snorlax)
I've only ever done so twice (without getting batshit insane luck)
I think Fini is the only Tabu I have
Lele, as I mentioned
*Tapu
As well as Dusk Mane Necrozma
I imagine a lot of the hard hitting Psychic and Ground types could also do it with enough setup
(And Dragons but good fucking let setting one up)
(Unless it's Eternatus, which doesn't do enough damage to OHKO, but can still chunk 2-3 bars per turn)
I'm not gonna sugarcoat it
252+ SpA Choice Specs Tera Psychic Tapu Lele Expanding Force (120 BP) vs. 4 HP / 252+ SpD Blissey in Psychic Terrain: 328-386 (50.3 - 59.2%) -- 78.5% chance to 2HKO after Leftovers recovery
My problem is
(Or yknow just use Psyshock but things can actually switch into that)
I have issues with things that limit me
Choice items are great but I hate getting locked into a move
Choice Items don't exist
Not in Pokerogue at least
I'm just doing funny normal calcs with Eforce Lele
Delphox killed it with both Psychic and Psyshock lol
VERY useful fox
Lele's one of the other Pokemon that runs both those moves normally
I mean, what other move would a Tapu Lele run?
Moonblast and then what?
Idk lol
Exactly, it's only Focus Blast after that
That's the 4 usable moves on a Choiced Lele
And it's still enough because Lele hits like a mini-nuke with those Psychic Terrain boosted Psychic Moves
Unfortunately, like that fraud Mega Diancie with Mystical Fire, it fails to OHKO FerroGOAT with Focus Blast
(These are actually all extremely strong Pokemon I'm just hyperbolising things for fun)
It doesn't matter what Coverage moves you have, if you're a Fairy Type, all roads lead to 0 Atk Ferrothorn Gyro Ball (105 BP) vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Tapu Lele: 272-324 (96.7 - 115.3%) -- guaranteed OHKO after Stealth Rock
Except for the roads in Paldea
Shiny Zorua :0
what game?
it can be a download if you want though, but it's mostly not intended to be such yea
- Has Rollout on moveset and uses screech
- Uses thundershock on next turn
Geat NPC intelligence
Their plans are beyond your comprehension
- Sends Jolteon out and I'm paralyzed + almost dead
- Jolteon uses Baby Doll Eyes
How is Lt Surge a gym leader again?
any splice candidates?
maybe just mash two mehs together like wormadam and togedemaru to free a slot up for somethin big
spikey shield quiverdance might not be too bad, some chip with iron barbs
yea lets do that
Wow that's a lot of shinies
BB Greninja with Moonblast is fun
i caught dewpider and todeg this run too
also latios and guzzlord
latias*
3, currently
I caught Dedenne this run. I feel bad because it's been doing nothing except providing a safe switch XD
*shiny dedenne
itll be a bastion against eternatus
Tbf it's a rat on a team with two cats, a dog, a frog, and a bigger rat
XD
ICE BEAM YESS
I can get rid of Blizzard on Greninja :)
hola
Oooo
you look like melted crayons
Giovanni's gotta be the easiest of the team bosses
At least ONE of my teammates dies with lit anyone else
for me its maxxie, i generally have a pretty strong water type with me
My battle-bond water frog and my gass cat kinda have been destroying TR
oooooh baby that scrafty has intimidate
Ooo nice
I can't say I know who I'd say is the easiest boss
I will say that I think that for most of my runs, Rose gives me the most trouble
Think I may catch this Tinkaton to replace my Raticate
The number of fucking times I've clicked a Ground move against this stupid fucking elephant forgetting it has Earth Eater I swear to god
Should I drop Raticate or Mabostiff? Raticate has a good moveset while Mabostiff has intimidate
I need a Mold Breaker Excadrill man
I haven't gotten Rose yet
Penny demolished me when she decided she didn't want her eeveelutions anymore
rose is SUCH a pain in the ass
Her Starmobile gives me issues sometimes
WHY ZAMAZENTA
She's from Galar
Bug specialist with a Bug type
Accidental caps
All the evil team leaders have crazy shit btw
My only complaint is that they could've gone harder with Ghetsis
He only has base Kyurem
Which is dumb since he directly uses Black/White Kyurem vs you
Fire Lash on my grass cat made immune to fire killed that stupid Genesect in ONE hit. He switched in as a steel type and I was fairy.
Rose has Melmetal and a Galarian Bird
But I really would've liked him to have Regieleki based on the dex entries
Ghetsis is annoying but handleable
Lusamine has Dawn Wings Necrozma
I either have a fairy type or fairy move on my team so the Kyurem's never been an issue
And Nihilego with the Levitate Passive which I have forgotten about on multiple occasions
Lysandre has Zygarde 50%
But his Mega Gyarados with Multiscale is an even bigger threat
Imagine getting Hau and Lusamine in the same run. Solgaleo on Hau and Dawn Wings Necrozma on Lusamine...
I have gotten team flare once but I didn't get to Lysandre I don't think
He has Giratina
They should've given Giovanni Mewtwo Y though
I would ask if you're on an old version of the game
But I don't even think he has Giratina on an old version
He has like Darkrai or something
Uhh shit have they updated his team?
Idk I know the last time I fought him which was like last week he had Giratina
Are you sure?
Pokerogue tries its hardest to not give overlapping legendaries
I know for a fact that Cynthia has Giratina
Dialga/Palkia
It can be either
But never both
Cynthia's team is honestly on the easier side since she doesn't get anything absurd apart from like, Giratina and Mega Garchomp if you get unlucky enough for it to roll Ddance
Oh I think they updated Red's team
Not much though
The biggest thing I can see is that Lugia now always has Multiscale
He still has one of Mega Venusaur, Zard X or Blastoise
And all 3 can be problematic
Yeah Cynthia's easy
Alder looks kinda terrifying
I remember on my last match with her (Eternatus wiped me in that run) my lead mon was Lucario and he thundurus kicked her spiritomb back spread across the land
Disgusting
I forget who Alder is
Any trainer that can have Last Respects is immediately an extreme threat
BW Champion
Diantha has Xerneas lmao
Arguably even scarier is Mega Gardevoir
Now, I've never seen her actually do this
But in theory, this Mega Gardevoir can roll both No Retreat and Boomburst
Remember, Mega Gardevoir's base ability is Pixilate
And this is a boss
So basically my strategy for it is to never find out if it rolled either
And just OHKO it
Leon is one of the scarier champions
Dragapult, Zacian and Boss Gmax Zard
Then there's Geeta with her lead Boss Glimmora with Tera Shell to guarantee it'll get at least 1 layer of Toxic Spikes, her Tera Flying Supreme Overlord Kingambit and Miraidon
And Baxcalibur too, almost forgot
She also currently has one of the Kalos starters
She had Boomburst last time I fought her
Which means there's a good chance she gets a Mega Starter in the future
And all 3 of the Kalos Megas are, to put it lightly, absolutely fucking absurd
Which leaves her only Pokemon that doesn't make you want to flee in terror instantly is Espathra
Since it is always Opportunist and not Speed Boost
Nemona has a Koraidon
And more notably, she caught her Dudunsparce in a Master Ball
There's also currently plans to make all of the Stat Trainer's Pokemon into Bosses
Even as they are right now, these mfs are some of the toughest trainers there are
Like good lord
There's plans to force Gigas' ability to Normalise instead of Slow Start btw
Sorry for dellayed response I didn't think I'd have a ton of issues in a battle against my fire cat x.x I was getting him Intimidate
Just so you know
Can they make the egg lady less stacked against you
The best way to do that is bring a fodder mon that also just happens to be kinda cracked
Meowstic beat her funnily enough
The fun part about Meowstic is that
Dark Void is currently pre-nerf
And Male Meowstic has Prankster
Yeah uhh
I had a male meowstic
It's pretty wild as a support mon
Thanks for giving me an amazing run idea
CHEETO ZACIAN
Look at the Pokemon I'm seemingly selecting rn
You have no idea how confused I was seeing a Dragapult in the starter screen at 7 cost in a shiny colour I do not have for it
XD
This is specifically only happening for Gen 8 mons
I have 0 clue why they are all using the wrong sprites
You see that 8 cost Blue Shiny Zamazenta with a Nuzlocke ribbon?
That's actually my Blue Shiny Eternatus
PFFT
I was just heading over to select Zeraora man
Okay but I want a Cheeto Zacian
Gen 8 mons evidently include the Galarian and Hisuian mons
Why is Gen 8 so fucked up rn
Alright, so
Thanks for tera dragoninc your steel pokemon Raihan
I think my only wincon is Mewtwo
It hasn't been for me
