It's also funny because in typical Pokémon fashion the game is heavily contrast between
"teeheehee!! Have fun!! Be friends!!"
And "the world is falling into hell. The legendary Pokémon seek to wreak havoc or prevent it. Kidnapping of innocent people is rife and there is little the average citizen can do to stay safe."

"I know we're kind of effed right now, but you know what I REALLY enjoy? Racing! I'll be your friend if you race me across this broken hellscape of fire and water that Kyogre and Gourdon left behind!"
"Sir please I'm just trying to complete the Pokédex."
I hope that's an appropriate word, I'll edit if I need to.
turbid horizon
"I know we're kind of effed right now, but you know what I REALLY enjoy? Racing...
Pokepark would never be so childish as to suggest racing during the apocalypse.
If I remember correctly it's mostly minigames and cake during an attempt by a tyrannical Darkrai to brainwash the population, and when that fails an attempt to destroy pokepark in its entirety.
IN HIS DEFENSE:

And actually I joked about them not racing but there is in fact a lot of racing because that is one of the minigames.

imagine turning all of your friends into demon generals because they want to see you happy and you don't even know
Man
I'm torn between that game and the first game being my favorite of the Pokepark games.
turbid horizon
I never played the first, which is why I'm starting with it now
My main goal is to pay closer attention to the story this time around. I know it's more childish than even the mainline games but what can I say, interests come and go.
If I remember correctly Hydreigon refers to Haxorus as "my partner" and honestly will villains ever not be queer coded

My one regret is he isn't smiling in that resource. 😂

Shadowchu....
turbid horizon
There's a male gothorita in Pokepark who apparently gets assumed to be female
And between this and Hydreigon
I've come to the conclusion that Pikachu and his pals aren't the heroes
They're just ruthless bigots
Pikachu: that's a nice outfit, did your husband give it to you?
Hydreigon: actually he did. He bought me this on our ten-year anniversary. Not only is he my lover, he's my best friend and my soulmate. For someone with strange abilities due to, I assume, overtraining through farming berries to buy upgrades, you're not very tolerant of those different to yourself. You're on the wrong side of history, Pikachu.
Pikachu: you're out of your mind!
Darkrai: oh, so now you're not only homophobic, but mock the mentally ill? You're right Pikachu, I may be "out of my mind", as you put it oh-so bluntly, but at least I don't insult others for loving those of the same gender, nor call out those who suffer from diseases of the mind.
This is why no Pokepark 3
Turns out Pikachu had some really backwards opinions
lofty glade

turbid horizon
Oshawott: it's time you were arrested for your crimes, Haxorus!
Pikachu: yeah, being gay!
Oshawott: whoa! What the fuck!
Pikachu: is that not what this is about?

I for one think homophobic Pikachu has potential to be a compelling antagonist
Definitely detestable
Because for one, it's pikachu
But now it's also a bigot

Professor Kukui and Burnet??? Best romantic relationship in Pokémon???? Never heard of em man, dunno what to tell ya
But I am halfway through the first pokepark game
And immediately obsessed with Feraligatr and Gyarados
Giving off gay jock vibes
Feraligatr's worried for him but doesn't wanna talk because he doesn't wanna fight again, Gyarados is just being kind of an ass because he thinks he can just take over the beach zone
You win Gyarados back over and Feraligatr isn't mad in the slightest, he's just glad that Gyarados is okay

i have an idea for a challenge that isnt a nuzlocke i hope it is the right amount of restriction
- set mode , no overleveing past the gym leader ace and no item in battle held item are fine
- when battling a trainer you can only use as many pokemon as the other trainer does however you can switch once for free if your lead pokemon isnt good for that battle
- no legendary/mysterious pokemon only catch the first pokemon of each route with species clause
- i can only catch pokemon from a certain type usign this chart https://pm1.narvii.com/5965/437cfee1c1d58339692fedb5c4b75296c0a5d4e9_hq.jpg

turbid horizon
I'd say bug should follow the rules of normal
But other than that, seems pretty fun
The options are actually pretty well balanced too
The "overpowered" types are divided really well. Granted it seems like water would be the hardest, but water, ice, grass and poison have some pretty damn strong picks
rough lintel
i wanted to avoid nuzlocke since nuzlocke reward grinding
turbid horizon
The fact that Basculegion will probably be actually good because one of its abilities is Adaptability heals my soul
If it gets flip turn I could easily see it being a scarf user, because in all honesty it's pretty slow.

Just finished through Pokemon Unbound's main game. It was pretty fun
turbid horizon
Unbound seems like a super polished game but it makes me kind of sad that it doesn't add anything like new Pokémon?
I like the Pseudo-Legendary Starter angle though
rain quarry
Ye, I couldn't actually decide which one so I spun a wheel and picked gible
And for me personally I enjoy fangames even if they don't add new crazy stuff. What I do like is that it made Pyroar actually pretty good. It gets a new ability called 'Royal Roar' which is Moxie for Special Attack, and it gets a new move called Scorch Sand which is a special base 70 ground move
turbid horizon
And for me personally I enjoy fangames even if they don't add new crazy stuff. W...
Scorching sand is a real move
rain quarry
Oh, is it from gen 8 or something
Shiinotic also gets magic guard which is pretty cool
silver kestrel
Yeah gen 8, a lot of ground and fire pokemon learn it too
rain quarry
Ah I see, I had no idea, never played swsh
turbid horizon
I probably will try out Unbound because i like the sound of changes to existing Pokémon. Plus it seems even better than Insurgence with team building stuff which is saying something because Insurgence makes it pretty damn easy.
rain quarry
It's pretty good with that stuff for the most part, though there are a few options that a late-game only. Initially I was thinking on wanting to use Kommo-o but it's all the way at victory road
turbid horizon
The only thing Insurgence got wrong in that regard is nature's. You have a way to change them but it's random and can only be done like every 20 minutes. Apparently getting the one you want is a 1/300 chance because you don't always get a nature swap anyway.

That's definitely annoying. ROM hacks do better with opening up cool Pokémon earlier but I suppose not everything is gonna escape the late game.
rain quarry
This game being a GBA rom has the benefit of speed-up and quick save-states, so getting the right nature on pokemon is easy, and gift pokemon especially because it'll tell you their nature before you even get to the nickname screen
The game also has a lot of quests and a quest log to keep track of them. Some of the rewards are gold bottle caps, though I haven't done any of those quests. There's also a dude that if you give him all 4 sawsbuck, he'll let you change pokemon natures for money
There was another quest that like, if you take a total of 15000 steps the dude will give you like 60 carbos lol, at that point my pokemon were like level 50 with no evs left so I couldn't use them, but it was neat ig

Tired of seeing "here's why ___ game needs a switch remake" as if people aren't frequently disappointed by switch remakes, regardless of whether they're bad or not
We don't need another mystery dungeon game remade, people have their old games or emulators
A new one with a new story would be nice
Like, I'm of the opinion that I'm really not all that interested in a Black and White remake
I wouldn't hate it? Even if it was like BDSP, if they did a remake that spanned both black and white and the sequels, that could be cool
But as neat as that would be, I don't think it would be some amazing experience
I'd rather they give us a Legends, like gen 4 and another NON remake game alongside it
I'd kill a man for a BW 3

How about ports though
Worse, frankly. Unless they had some amazing internet functionality or something, why the hell would I pay 50 quid for something I get for free with an emulator?

Xenoblade X needs to get out of the Wii U graveyward though
cunning parrot
Listen, taking emulators into account isn’t a good argument since that would just mean you should never buy any games and should just emulate instead
tawny iron
Like, I'm of the opinion that I'm really not all that interested in a Black and ...
I said it once and I'll say it again: Gen 5 has aged perfectly and moving it into 3D has 0 potential of making it better in any way
turbid horizon
I suppose Wii U games are the exception to that rule, there are some games that need moved up
cunning parrot
And I mean when your argument is just that you can emulate it and that’s it, when it’s something like the port being bad quality then it has some relevance
tawny iron
yeah, for sure
turbid horizon
My point is a lot of ports aren't worth it in comparison to the emulator
Yes, you can emulate just about anything, but emulators for old games in particular typically run just fine
We don't need a black and white port because black and white is a DS game. The most a port could do to add anything to that is maybe package them together
And even then, any exorbitant price on that would be ridiculous
tawny iron
But they've never ported any Pokemon games, so I dont think this even needs to be an argument
umbral egret
the point of a port is for those who want to offically support the creators and bring it to new gen consoles so someone doesn't have to hunt down a ps1 or a dreamcast
turbid horizon
I'm not against all ports, but frankly there's no need to Support The Creator when it comes to Nintendo, Nintendo is gonna be fine. As far as bringing stuff to new gen consoles, as I said Wii U games are a fair argument for that, because there are Wii U games that didn't get enough love
But that wasn't the question, the question was If Not Remakes, Why Not Ports regarding Black and White. Which as I said, I do not think is ever gonna be necessary.
tawny iron
Another reason for remakes (and ports if they include multiplayer) is online play. Something like Advance Wars has also aged perfectly, (Why are all GBA games so beautiful?) but online multiplayer in itself is enough to make remaking it worth it, even if emulating these games is as easy as it gets

Beartic evolution
Ursaluna exists now, and I love Ursaluna
So Beartic evolution please and thank you
I'd request ice/water typing
Because it only has 4 weaknesses and beartic often uses aqua jet
rain quarry
Ice/Grass and it gets truant
turbid horizon
Basically it's a bulky boy, and I usually prefer to go by design for typings instead of gameplay, but it desperately needs something that can help it tank a bit more
And electric/ice doesn't make sense
It could stay pure ice but it would need some major help to make it viable with that
Because Beartic showcases that pure ice physical attackers aren't particularly great
Like I said, beartic often uses aqua jet and that's a bad thing
It's a bad thing when one of your best options is a high priority low power move without stab
It's weird that Adaptability is called Adaptability right?
Like thinking about what it does
It boosts stab
What the fuck are you adapting to
That's like what you're already suited to
rain quarry
It's extra weird that it's called that in Japanese too, so it's not a translation thing either

turbid horizon
I guess adaptability could be like
They HAVE adapted?
Like how animals adapt to be really good at A Thing
And in this case, that represents itself as stab damage
Basculin is adapted to survive in water perfectly, therefore extra stab for water
But that's not what the name implies
Frankly it would make more sense if it was an ability that reacted to weather or terrain
Or maybe an ability that boosts the power of moves you use that are a type you're weak too
Anti-stab
rain quarry
That would be a fun ability, though it might be too strong depending on the pokemon
turbid horizon
I mean give it to a grass or ice type and they've got stab with everything under the sun
rain quarry
Yeah. I'd be happy if we got abilities like Steelworks but for other types
rain quarry
Sinister - boosts dark moves
turbid horizon
Ghoulish, boosts ghost
rain quarry
Alternate name Green Thumb
I like Green Thumb better yeah, Lumberjack implies its going against grass
turbid horizon
I think an ability that boosts fighting moves would make a lot of sense.
"This Pokémon Looks Like A Fighter" is a common trope but you don't want to stick every Pokémon like that with a fighting type
Name I'm not so sure about
Something like Muscular is probably the like sensible option
But I like the idea of it being called Beefcake
rain quarry
I vote beefcake
I'm sure this has been discussed a lot but it's so weird that Zeraora wasn't a fighting type
turbid horizon
It is strange
But it's also quite strong already
I'd hate to see it with close combat stab
I think it would have been a better choice for the mythical that would follow it in gen 8 though
Electric/Fighting is a good opposite to Grass/Dark
So they would have worked well one after the other
rain quarry
I suppose thats true. I do like Zarude for being like, the only monkey pokemon that actually looks like it would eat your face off
turbid horizon
Leaf Guard is kind of a shit ability though
Not a fan of abilities that are just copy-pasted but add a new conditional thing
Ah yes, leaf Guard, with all the sun setter teams running around
Honestly I usually see sandstorm or hail
I don't think hail is better than sun, especially with how restrictive it is, but I suppose that's the appeal, it's more challenging
rain quarry
A sunlight ability seems a little weird for a pokemon that's implied to live in dark secluded parts
turbid horizon
In Almost Any Ability, Zarude's best setup has Grassy Surge
Which could make it a bit too powerful, as is the nature of AAA but something relating to Grass Terrain could have been way better
Maybe something that increases its healing output in grassy terrain for example
turbid horizon
I finished Pokepark 1 last night so let's review:

tawny iron
The unskippable tutorials and cutscenes are what makes the games jaring to play
In terms of gameplay, story and graphics, they are by far the best modern pokemon games. Not that there is much to compete with
drifting thunder
I mean I liked XY for the most part
also should I skip them and just go straight to ultra sun/moon? I've heard they're pretty samey but idk
tawny iron
I mean I liked XY for the most part
Not a fan of the artstyle of those and the story was somehow worse than the stories in the gameboy games imo
tawny iron
also should I skip them and just go straight to ultra sun/moon? I've heard they...
I personally prefer the original versions by a mile
The ultra games add a ton of pokemon to the regional dex, but it also ruins the story and most characters. And some of the totem bosses get replaced by mons that fit way less
But I know that there are a lot of people that prefer the ultra versions regardless, so 🤷♂️
Though if you've never experienced the story of gen 7, I highly reccomend going with the base games
drifting thunder
by ruins the story do you mean it's not the same story? Is it like a sequel or what
tawny iron
It's like an alternate timeline. The story is mostly the same up until a certain point, at which everything changes and characters that were build up suddenly get thrown away and forgotten
drifting thunder
I see
tawny iron
One of the big personal reasons for why I really like the base gen 7 games is that I went in compleatly blind and had no idea about ultra beasts existing and what they are. That really made the story intriguing and something special for me on my first playthrough back in the day
drifting thunder
I've seen most of the pokemon at this point through the TCG and other places but I still know very little about them
tawny iron
That's nice, might still be a fun experience for you then
So yeah, I definetly reccomend the base games, but I know that I'm not speaking for everyone
drifting thunder
I'll look into hacks to see if there's anything that might ease the pain a bit
spare mirage
There’s some hacks that make them harder iirc idk if they fix the issues in general or not. But i agree with Tomate, the original Sun and Moon are better for a first playthrough.
drifting thunder
anyone messed with "no outline" patches for Pokemon Moon? I can't seem to find them anywhere
drifting thunder
think I might have found a solution to that. Hopefully it works.
drifting thunder
played a bit of pokemon Moon. I can kinda see what people meant about the long tutorial, but it really wasnt that bad. Probably more annoying on replays, but I thought it was comfy. Although the game literally put me to sleep, so idk, maybe too comfy
drifting thunder
also I kinda hate the UI. Like a lot things about it are good in theory, but in practice they're bad. Even the GBA games had a better UI. Stuff like having to touch the screen or press a button to see Ability/Move descriptions bugs me. Showing whether moves are super effective/not very effective/etc. is a good idea, but it should have been an icon instead of just the words "Super Effective" in big text under the move name.
And Pokemon Care/Refresh seems like a huge pain in the ass. It's one of those "fun idea for a gimmick" things, except the way it's implemented it feels more like a chore, having to comb the dust off your pokemon after every few battles.
tawny iron
doesnt the move info also pop up with y or L or R?
tawny iron
yeah, care and refresh were just ported from x and y and they are as annoying and busted as in those games
drifting thunder
like they have 2 screens of real estate, they should just show it
turbid horizon
The issue with sun and moon for me wasn't sun and moon
It was the fact that they immediately made a game which was just Sun and Moon: Now Better
And the tutorial was equally as long
And most of the good stuff was locked behind post game
I want Exploud in Pokémon unite

hit itself in confusion and got hit by super effective protean bug buzz and dazzling gleam in a double battle
my the most sad loss so far, I was so curious what it'll evolve into
also, no more Covet
it was also trapped so couldn't switch or run away
...but I have Switcheroo
Chardub knows it
still super sad
drowsy hearth
My starters for my oras randomizer
Quite a selection
The wild zigzagoon happens to be a Cobalion
Grass pelt ability
maiden pivot
rip buddy
drowsy hearth
He'll be missed
maiden pivot
ok, I got Lapras and Fishing Rod, it's time for a good ton of new encounters
drowsy hearth
After the Zigzagoon becoming a Cobalion, not sure if my other choices would be any better than tyrantrum
or worse
maiden pivot
good luck haha
drowsy hearth
Named him british
Because "T" rex
tyrantrum is mild nature
and is somewhat stubborn
A stubborn Tyrantrum
He probably hates me for naming him British then
maiden pivot
I thought I burned it with Fire Punch, turns out it got burned cuz of Flame Orb hahaha

So many abilities I remember the names of but not what they do

May's Starter is a Nincada
which in hindsight is funny considering I got a giant dinosaur vs my rivals small bug
It got one shot
First team member
Bone ore the Aron
realized may have to release electrode since he's a route 101 encounter like Tyrantrum

Really good if you have it set so wild Pokémon hold random items
Too bad you can’t keep items stolen from trainer Pokémon though
drowsy hearth
Dang, 3 of these routes aren't kind to Aron when it comes to trying to grind him
maiden pivot
Really good if you have it set so wild Pokémon hold random items
I was doing this for the whole game until Trubbish died
he knew Covet which is the same thing but normal type
cunning parrot
I was doing this for the whole game until Trubbish died
@bright hemlock So sad to hear you died
maiden pivot
drowsy hearth
Lost bone ore to a Hitmonchan revenge
Rest in piece Bone Ore
Found an item that boosts rock moves
maiden pivot
I youinked a bunch of Moon Stones from wild mons at the start of the game so I can evolve it right away
gonna check if it even learn anything after evolving first
drowsy hearth
Ironically, Rock tomb and Charge beam are both moves it probably learns naturally
could be wrong on charge beam
maiden pivot
only four new moves
I think I'm gonna keep it as Nidorino until lvl 35 so it learns 4 moves, then evolve and learn one more move
maiden pivot
first totem stickers gift mon

it has it's the most useless normal ability

I went back to Melemele and got all my encounters I think
Which fossil are you going to revive? I only had the plume fossil available
maiden pivot
I have looots of them, idk which one to choose
I guess it doesn't matter that much since idk what I'll have

kartana monk?
cunning parrot
No, it was Hapu and GAME FREAK in a double battle
maiden pivot
huh
cunning parrot
Hapu T posed when sending out Pokemon and GAME FREAK was cloned and T posed after the original gave his defeat text
maiden pivot
found a shiny Morelul but I already have a regular Shinotic
rip shiny
it memented me anyway
cunning parrot
Pretty neat how Akala has 3 trial captains to represent the 3 starter types and a rock kahuna to represent how the first gym is usally a rock type gym
maiden pivot
yea that's a cute touch
nidorino used rock tomb, it's a clear 2hko
regice used swords dance
(jeez please don't miss) nidorino used rock tomb
regice lives in 1 hp and used swords dance
(kdjsf;ijdl;ds I need something with 100% accuracy) nidorino used cut, it doesn't affect regice
regice used swords dance
holy fuck
cunning parrot
Luckily he's a special attacker
cunning parrot
I hope I find a light of ruin TM
maiden pivot
my fav trial in the whole game
neat, I unlocked poke pelago
now I can have a funny encounter
cunning parrot
You can?
I just know I can't unlock the training island since I have to own 45 Pokemon
I looked it up and now I remember how wild Pokemon will visit and sometimes stay
maiden pivot
You can?
if you put beans in the box on the beans island, wild mons will be attracted
cunning parrot
Are you going to just count the first Pokemon that shows up there? I have 2 Cutiefly visiting
maiden pivot
if any of them chooses to stay, it'll be a funny encounter
cunning parrot
if you put beans in the box on the beans island, wild mons will be attracted
Well, I didn't add any beans
maiden pivot
yea I'll count the whatever wants to stay first
they're just more likely to stay if you boost them with beans
cunning parrot
If multiple decide to stay at the same time, roll a die to see who stays
cunning parrot
I only use refresh to cure poison and stuff
cunning parrot
It's kinda like beast boost
maiden pivot
moxie but special
and counts your fallen allies
I'll add it into the team if Nidorino evolves into something sad
cunning parrot
My fighting Z move did less damage than normal aura sphere
maiden pivot
idk if I ever will but I'm kinda curious to see what types my non-evolved mons will have
cunning parrot
Stance change huh
maiden pivot
yea
totally works on finneon
(not)
aight, I'm gonna revive a jaw fossil and it's bed time
6 am here
here it is
maiden pivot
do they all evolve at the set levels or in their natural ways?
cunning parrot
Normal ways
cunning parrot
He's got simple with shell smash
Some pretty good TMs here
Oh my
Guess I'll never have trouble catching anything ever again
Perfect
maiden pivot
Oh my
That's terribly lucky
Damn, I wish randomizing Poke Mart didn't break my game
And I hope I'll find a wild mon that can hold a Master Ball 
cunning parrot
Nihilego was Zygarde, how funny
cunning parrot
Do you like his nickname?

<@482295247536259083> So sad to hear you died
Yes it really is a shame
But I have risen

🪑 i wanna try shiny huntig in firered or leafgreen, any ideas on who to hunt
raw raft

maiden pivot
Technically, I can revive all my fossils and see if I have any shinies to count it as a shiny encounter 
And release everything that isn't shiny
cunning parrot
Technically, I can revive all my fossils and see if I have any shinies to count ...
But then you’ll see a caught symbol next to them if they appear in the wild
maiden pivot
I think I'm smart enough to remember them If not, I'll just take a note somewhere
I just never pay attention to this symbol anyway and remember my caught mons
cunning parrot
I’ve been able to remember so far too
Though the only repeat I’ve encountered I think is Haunter twice
cunning parrot
I meant as first encounters though
cunning parrot
Every single time I freeze an opponent they just instantly thaw out
cunning parrot
Dammit
maiden pivot
cunning parrot
@fierce breach My next catch
cunning parrot
He had slow start, so I thought he wouldn't kill Zebstrika
maiden pivot
noooooo, turns out that Festival Plaza tutorial is required at some point
it's time to speed up to 900%
cunning parrot
I used speed up to get through that fast
maiden pivot
my maximum is around 400% tho but it's still something
cunning parrot
My laptop fan has to go at max speed at only 200%
I hate when Pokemon have moves of random types that are super effective, why would Arbok have a grass move
maiden pivot
my old laptop could barely handle gen 4-5 emulator
and it was lagging so much that it had like
3 fps
gonna check if any of my remaining fossils are shinies
I'll even put them in a separate box
and I won't nickname non-shinies and take items from them
old amber
cunning parrot
But you already did a fossil
maiden pivot
But you already did a fossil
I wanna check if any of these are shinies to count it as a shiny encounter
if not, I'm just gonna leave them in a separate box and won't touch them anymore
claw fossil
armor fossil
and cover fossil
cunning parrot
Too bad he doesn't know any status moves
maiden pivot
I'm never touching these guys again
damn yea
lvl it up or check the TMs/beach moves
cunning parrot
Oh right, beach moves
maiden pivot
now gonna check Poke Pelago
Corsola is wandering around
gonna check it later again
cunning parrot
I wish the move reminder wasn't at the end of the game
maiden pivot
yea that sucks
especially for me since evos movepools are randomized as well and mons can learn new moves if they evolved
cunning parrot
Trying to evolve my Elekid who revived from the plume fossil
cunning parrot
I have random movepools and random evolutions
cunning parrot
Elekid can't take any attack and not lose most of his health
Luckily I'm grinding next to a healer
maiden pivot
my current team, I mainly use Nidorino, Goomy, Incineroar and Poliwrath
cunning parrot
This wild Espeon kept spamming dive, so I kept spamming spiky shield to kill it
maiden pivot
Carrots learned Spiky Shield yesterday haha
maiden pivot
Shinotic dead in double battle cuz both mons had strong fire moves against steel type and both attacked it
cunning parrot
I love having Pokemon with no stab moves
maiden pivot
Heat Crash by Tyranitar and Flare Blitz by Scolipede
cunning parrot
Also Oak stays on the same beach, he does not go to different beaches to give you more Pokemon
maiden pivot
wait really? I don't remember him being like that
gonna check once I unlock the third island
damn, that sucks then
cunning parrot
You can just check that he doesn't go to the first island
cunning parrot
These TM and move tutor compatibilities are shit, my electric and fire Pokemon can't be taught electric and fire moves but my water Pokemon can
maiden pivot
my TMs are mainly shit overall so far
the only good ones are Dig and Oblivious Wing, everything else is funny statuses
like Worry Seed
cunning parrot
I have many good moves, but no one to learn them
And everyone has a healing move since I have slack off and shore up TMs and several of them just learned heal order by level up
Except Lucario, I just gave him attacks
This is my next catch
night palm
Catch it
cunning parrot
I bought a bunch of master balls for 0 money
maiden pivot
I wish I could randomize my mart as well
but it kept crushing the game without a chance to open it
cunning parrot
Maybe I could try if you send me the rom since my program works
maiden pivot
for some reason Spacial Rent just took 0 hp from me
like
really 0, without a joke
cunning parrot
There's a berry pile on the 3rd island's Mantine beach, maybe that means there's an encounter here
maiden pivot
but I'm not even that surprised cuz my gf couldn't continue her game recently cuz the opponent had 0 mons left but the battle didn't stop
cunning parrot
There's a berry pile on the 3rd island's Mantine beach, maybe that means there's...
Yep
maiden pivot
There's a berry pile on the 3rd island's Mantine beach, maybe that means there's...
is that a separate location?
cunning parrot
Yes, Ula'ula beach
maiden pivot
neat, it should always have a mon and 5 berries then
cunning parrot
Do you know if the berry field on Melemele ever has a Pokemon in the berry pile? I haven't found one yet
maiden pivot
nope, the piles that can have a mon are always pre-determined afaik
maiden pivot
at least that's what I noticed back when I looked for EV berries to grow them later
yea, the piles with a mon can be, like, how should I say it
"uncomplete"
if you wait longer tho, they'll have a mon
but if a tree always has 3 berries and no mon, it'll always have 3 berries and no mon, but I can be wrong
again, at least that's what I noticed after actively playing SM and USUM for a few years, but I didn't farm berries that often
cunning parrot
I'm gonna surf so I can see if this thunder punch tutor will work with Luxio
maiden pivot
good luck
cunning parrot
UGH
maiden pivot
Nidorino died
every time I try to evolve something, it dies
it got color changed to be electric type and then earthquaked by Hydreigon
my whole team is pretty weak to ground tbh but Nidorino wasn't until color change
and Ninjask just got one shoted cuz it's Ninjask
everything else I have is weak to ground 
it was 3HKO on Toxapex but it got crited
that looks sad as hell
I FORGOT THAT CARROTS HAS LEVITATE DSFL;KGJS'FDJG'SDFOKL
I'm so stupiiiiid
I could not lose 2 mons if I just remembered about it
welp
that's a beauty of randomized nuzlockes to test your memory
drowsy hearth
Flareon honestly sucks to get I realized sadly
This team does seem decently well rounded atm
drowsy hearth
This is a funny ability to have
cunning parrot
Of course the GAME FREAK has Arceus
drowsy hearth
It's Guts, but not
maiden pivot
hahahaha
cunning parrot
By the way, Arceus is still normal type no matter what form he's in
maiden pivot
huh, really? so the type really depends on an item rather than on a form
hm, I think I'll train some of my pre-evos while training new team members
drowsy hearth
Two bug types I've encountered that has illusion
eventually that's going to get my petlil killed
drowsy hearth
Petalburg is officially a death trap for me
It has a Clawitzer with Aura Sphere and Dragon pulse at level 6
cunning parrot
Why
maiden pivot
nooo Luxio
maiden pivot
It has a Clawitzer with Aura Sphere and Dragon pulse at level 6
grind
cunning parrot
He was at full HP and leech life killed him
maiden pivot
that's mega beedrill
maiden pivot
it's atk stat is stupid
drowsy hearth
but it almost killed me with a crit
maiden pivot
I'll keep Lombre with me for now, I still have one trial to complete before I get to the city with stones shop
cunning parrot
I'll use this as my replacement
maiden pivot
that kinda sounds disrespectful towards Luxio

found a shiny encounter while grinding
drowsy hearth
Golette for my 116 encounter
maiden pivot
shiny starter once again
cunning parrot
Gyro ball or magnet bomb?
fierce breach
<@375947368241168386> My next catch
omg espeon
maiden pivot
it'll become speedier with lvl if you want to outlvl your opponents
so I'd go with magnet bomb
drowsy hearth
I get a golette but I encounter an Arcanine and a Flygon in the same route
maiden pivot
I'm gonna evolve Shellos in 3 lvls and continue the plot I think
Maractus got pretty grown up at the moment, and it has a decent moveset
drowsy hearth
My team before the first gym
maiden pivot
spoon
drowsy hearth
Yea
Two of my Pokemon nearly died in the fight
Tyrantrum nearly killed himself with headsmash because I tail whip spammed the gym leader's Wobbufet
cunning parrot
Become slow start
maiden pivot
another pure Rock type
I'll stick with Rock Ghost Maractus instead, but at least I have a back up
umbral egret
just do a rock mono
cunning parrot
So sad that he becomes normal when saving and coming back, now his ability sucks
I just got a moon stone, so now I can evolve the Skitty I have
maiden pivot
well that's scary
cunning parrot
And now I can evolve Feebas
umbral egret
nice
cunning parrot
It now has torrent, so I'll teach it waterfall
maiden pivot
damn, too scary
cunning parrot
I think I remember Feebas not being changed the first time I did this, so maybe there's some bug where his evolution can't be changed
maiden pivot
:S
if Chardub can learn it instead of Switcheroo, that'd be neat
and stab
anyways, new encounter time
well damn that's shit
but it has an ability that affect the whole team
and it's not like it becomes that more useful
cunning parrot
I wonder if I should get the Mount Lanakila encounter now or wait until the end of the game
fallen knoll
Anybody on bdsp able to trade with me so I can evolve my electabuzz?
spare mirage
Hippo from another dimension

But the universal randomizer only works on gen 1-5

It's funny to me how some trainers just have straightup powers but assumedly it's not that impressive to everyone else because they still aren't as strong as pokemon
From the games alone:
Any Psychic (the trainer type) comes to mind
Of course you could argue this is Pokémon helping them that just aren't visible
But the Shadow Triad can disappear and reappear and basically be entirely invisible, to the point that even Pokémon obviously can't track them otherwise they'd have been sniffed out
cunning parrot
Or how about how Lusamine gets possessed and turns into a crazy monster, then just throws out her Pokémon with stat boosts
turbid horizon
In fact, the only person in game who can counter the shadow triad is another example of superpowers amongst humans in Pokémon
Because apparently Brycen has Spidey sense or some shit
turbid horizon
Or how about how Lusamine gets possessed and turns into a crazy monster, then ju...
Speaking of possession, hex Maniac obviously has something going on
I'm assuming humans having powers in Pokémon is a result of humans having evolved from Pokémon (or whatever ancestor humans and Pokémon split from)
Because I feel that makes the most sense especially when considering the movies, where that kid uses Jungle Healing
night palm
Don't evolve it
turbid horizon
Contrary to what it may seem I do think Gen 5 has some flaws
cunning parrot
Like you can't get Haxorus until very late game
turbid horizon
Like you can't get Haxorus until very late game
Yes this is the main flaw
But for example, a lot of important trainers have a habit of feeling pretty weak
Even Alder has an Accelgor, a Bouffalant and a Druddigon
cunning parrot
Though that makes sense for Bianca, she's supposed to be a bad trainer
turbid horizon
None of which are... Great Pokémon for a champion. Especially a champion who is only challenged post game.
cunning parrot
Why the heck did Pelipper have spacial rend
turbid horizon
Though that makes sense for Bianca, she's supposed to be a bad trainer
Yeah, that makes sense, but I also feel that adherence to themes is the downside here because with trainers like Alder and Brycen
They gave them theme-fitting Unovan Pokémon, or did their best to give them more unique Unovan Pokémon
But the Pokémon they get are 90% only good for design
Both get Vanilluxe, which is a solid pick, but neither actually make much use of its benefits
Alder does get a Volcarona WITH quiver dance
But at least half his team is made up of Pokémon that are essentially useless at that level. Unless you count Accelgor, which I don't think has sticky web on his team
In fact the best that Alder's team DOES get is in black and white 2, strictly in the Tournament
Where, admittedly
Volcarone, Conkeldurr, Reuniclus, Krookodile, Chandelure and Braviary isn't bad
But, as it's tournament
Strictly a level 50 fight.

What’s the score to beat?
maiden pivot
it's mentioned on the last beach I believe
cunning parrot
I haven’t gotten to the last island yet
maiden pivot
and I think you need to unlock it as well
ah, yea, you should beat the best scores of each island, I just searched it
and then there's a house full of surfing boards in heahea and the guy inside normally gives you Pikachu with Surf
cunning parrot
There was a hiker in the fist trial area who mentioned surfing Pikachu
maiden pivot
this is kinda funny cuz now in gen 8 Pika learns Surf through TR lol
it couldn't before and was event only until gen 7
cunning parrot
this is kinda funny cuz now in gen 8 Pika learns Surf through TR lol
What about fly?
maiden pivot
What about fly?
nope, still event only
new encounter
h m m
should I learn it or not...
my moveset looks ok already but I can sketch a stab move if I find one
damn, I think I'll go for it instead of Hypnosis
I'll check a bunch of low lvl Pokemon to make sure that I outspeed them after they use a move I want
or, if I ever find a double battle, I can sketch my Lombre's shadow ball, but double battles are always risky
bold yarrow
sketch op
bold yarrow
or, if I ever find a double battle, I can sketch my Lombre's shadow ball, but do...
cant you force a double battle with some wild pokemon sometimes
maiden pivot
not in gen 7
like
there's SOS encounters and totem battles but you battle alone against 2 foes
so I can't sketch a move from myself cuz there's no ally
new encounter
buying water stone to evolve Lombre
but first, Ditto in Konikoni
oooh neat, Eviolite for my Cosmic Power Geomancy Goomy
aaand here's my Ditto encounter
Fairy Grass, Keen Eye
well, it could be worse
and having a ground immunity in my team weak to ground is pretty nice
if it can learn oblivion wing tm, that'll be neat
nope
but it can learn Hurricane
gonna take Quilava with me now, I really wanna see it's type when evolved
another pure Dark encounter, I have like 3 or 4 now
maiden pivot
another new encounter, curious typing

phew, no losses
oooh, revelation dance is always stab, cool
spare mirage
Nice
bold yarrow
oooh, revelation dance is always stab, cool
how so?

thanks Eviolite and Cosmic Power for living

I hate when repels don't work since my Pokemon are lower level than the wild Pokemon

Goomy's about to evolve in just 1 lvl
Poison, Grassy Terrain
please not Fire, pleeease
not bad
it's Xerneas now

And Yveltal
By the way, it's weird that oblivion wing is a flying move and not dark

Don't buy it, it's worthless

I had to use like 14 super repels
Shut the hell up Rotom

I just sketched Moongeist Beam
maiden pivot
Fire Steel, Soundproof
oooh that's a neat typing
but a third Fire type
if Chardub or Carrots die, I'll replace them with Typh
maybe I'll even replace Chardub now, I think something in my team can learn Thief
Chardub is pretty strong already so she 'll be a good replacement if something dies
ah nope, the only mon that can learn Thief is Sliggoo, and her moveset is already neat
aight then, Chardub stays
cunning parrot
Oh wait, you don't get the Zygarde cube until the postgame in USUM

spare mirage
Hawlucha isn’t bad
maiden pivot
gonna continue checking it in case any shiny wants to stay
yea, Poke Pelago can spawn shinies, not a lot of people know that
pure Electric isn't bad, especially if it can learn any STAB moves
I'll try to lvl it up

She's got a shiny totem Mimikyu

I don't remember if Po Town has an encounter

I just met a wild Garbodor
which could be my starter but I picked another one, and which Trubbish could evolve into if it didn't die a few levels before evolution

yeaa
Innards Out is such an annoying ability
I one shoted Liepard and it left me with 10 hp cuz of Innards Out
spare mirage
It was cool till cramorant got a better version of it lol
maiden pivot
hahahaha
I chose "Litten" at the start of the game so Kukui gave me Incinium Z, and I have Incineroar right now
so if it happens to learn Darkest Lariat I can use it
I doubt it but that's still funny
maiden pivot
It was cool till cramorant got a better version of it lol
how Cramorant's ability is a better version of Innards Out? they work completely differently, no?
maiden pivot
Gulp Missle activates when 1) Cramorant has something in it's mouth and 2) every time you attack it, and it always deals the same ammount of damage, and Innards Out activates when you KO Pyukumuku and it deals damage equal to the ammount of lost HP
cunning parrot
maiden pivot
it's more like Innards Out is a better version of Aftermath
cunning parrot
Epic
spare mirage
I forgot aftermath existed lol
maiden pivot
cuz Aftermath only activates when you KO with a contacting move and deals 1/4 of your HP

Soul heart is cool
