I've caught a male gooey sliggoo, trying for a female one. I might be able to send out some gooey goomy eggs if anyone is interested.

So when breeding, does the nature of the parent have any effect on the nature of the offspring?

In the last gen it did not. However, if a parent was holding an everstone then any egg they produced would the same nature they did. I have no idea if it still works that way.

Are there any good physical fairy moves? Neither my Carbink or Mawlie have any options for fairy moves to capitalize on their attack stat so far. Pretty annoying.

Also, I just realized that nicknames do in fact show up in online battles. Everyone I've thought with so far has just been terribly boring so far.

Any word on what tipping does just yet? Some people have said it increases the Shiny encounter rate and so I started tipping like mad but, just as with all previous Pokemon games, I've never seen a Shiny in the wild at all.

Seems like the musical meter is how many times she'll give you hearts for petting her. Once it's depleted you'll just get little music notes instead of hearts until you play games and fill it back up again.

It lets your pokemon shake off status effects, increases crit and evasion, and allows them to survive a lethal hit.

Well I'd like a talonflame to help hatch eggs. I'm not sure if males can pass down DW abilities or not, so I'm gonna keep looking for a gooey female.

It's rhoga but it's his third slot so he has to be playing when you start. I'm using trace gardevoir to find out abilities. Gooey is pretty rare on these guys even here.

THE FUTURE IS UNWRITTEN



The online features in this are so great, especially considering how terrible Nintendo has been at them in the past.

I managed to get an Aerodactyl and Tyrunt from Wonder Trades after I started giving out (admittedly bad) Honedges, and then later a different person apparently liked one of my dumb sword nicknames enough to open a real trade afterwards and give me a Staravia. Considering the Starly line is one of my favorites, I'm quite happy right now.

I assume you picked Bulbasaur as your starter? I'm still trying to find information on whether or not we can get all 3 Kanto-ites. I picked Squirtle(offers Venusaurite) and i'm sort of regretting it now that we aren't sure if we can get all 3.

I feel so bad for mocking Malamar's design when I first saw it. It looks fantastic in game and is such a fun pokemon to use. It may have took them 6 generations to make a squid pokemon but it was worth the wait.

So I was looking up how to evolve Skrelp and apparently it needs to know camouflage? Crap. Does anyone know where the move relearner is? Or if there's a level requirement for Dragalge?

Also whoever posted saying to use quick balls is a dang genius. I've caught every pokemon every try since using them, including the Goomy I just got.

It makes no sense, really. You can soar across the countryside on a bird the size of a man's fist, but heaven forbid you try on your human sized beetle known for extreme strength and flying ability.

The only place I've seen it rain so far is in front of the crystal cave where you get the fossils. After you ride the Rhyhorn.

Maybe you can go in and out of the cave and it resets the weather. I dunno.
