Yeah I feel like the penalty to those level 50 guys is that once you use them it takes a lot of missions for them to be available again. I'm trying to stick to Rotom as my go-to. Does anyone know if the leaked EXP to inactive party members is 100% of it or what?

My Salamance prostrat turned out to be to spam the wand that causes sleep and Alliance. He was pretty broken the first time I used him, but I bet that he's one of the Pokemon that's going to be busy often. You should always walk around town, by the way. You can recruit Pokemon with a speech bubble and a red "!".

I just got to the part where we got made 'Junior' Explorers and got the orb and gear and poo poo. Still need to do the first mission but I can only assume after that I can start recruiting mons and all. I'm at chapter 7 now to be at this point, it was a long rear end intro but not bad long, the classes were cute segments and had poo poo like the crazy vice principal and the return of the magnet pokemon tree sheriffs. I don't think any Mystery Dungeon game has had a FAST intro, especially this one explaining stuff like the gems and all, so I'm ok with a long intro that's well done.

I was going to pick Riolu, but the game suggested Torchic who is a pretty great starter... so I did the quiz again and got Torchic again with different questions so just went with it, and the game suggested Riolu as a partner afterwards. I have not played any of the PMD games, but this one does seem cool so far and worth picking up for anyone with any interest.

Ruggington posted:Bacon That's the one I went with. I've noticed that the other characters in the game always repeatedly say your partner's name to avoid using gender specific pronouns, probably to avoid kids going "But I wanted my partner to be a boy/girl!" I mean the better solution would be to allow you to pick gender for your partner (I would say for you too but nobody seems to refer to you with pronouns anyway, just "the new kid" or whatever) but I guess maybe that would be too difficult to do. I only just learned how to use Alliance attacks and quit before I got to the next part of the story, the emera system is pretty neat. Cerony posted:They're making more of those mega poncho Pikachu.

There are so many great features and changes in Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon it's amazing. From little things like random sparkly item drops on the overworld, to massive things like being able to immediately swap yourself/your partner poke out once you get extra pokemon. With GtI's "Everybody gets all of the experience." Hell, instead of being "Struggle in a random direction", Splash has neat utility. "Your flopping efforts finally pay off. You jump over an enemy or a teammate and get behind it." This game is amazing. Edit: Why the gently caress are TMs single use again?? You can't even recycle them??? Also, you can't remember some starting moves like Froakie Aerial Ace because it's a TM move I guess? Well, I found a bad thing about the game, I guess.

Pastrymancy posted:Guys was I supposed to recruit the Salamence early That's what I did, minus the Blast Seed. I just put him to sleep repeatedly with those status Wands and now he's on my team. Then a few missions later I got a Dragonite who's level loving 55 and I don't even know what to do anymore! Also I don't have to have my player character and partner in the party all the time?  This is a potential game-changer. Time to assemble some teams!

...I just realized shared EXP means I don't need to use my leader and partner all the time since they'll level up anyway. I need to build up a coolio team, right away! Although I'm curious: if they shared EXP level up, do they learn a move they normally would have learned, like mons in the daycare? Or do you just have to have it "remembered"?

If it's the same as Gates, then they'll level up the moment they step in a dungeon, at which point they'll learn all the moves inbetween.

Crosspeice posted:If it's the same as Gates, then they'll level up the moment they step in a dungeon, at which point they'll learn all the moves inbetween. It may not be the same. In GtI, they also gained all of the levels they would. In Super, pokemon level up even if out of dungeon. You can still remember all moves for free via the move tutor, but at least some starting moves may not be rememberable since those are not normally learned by the pokemon. At least Froakie's Aerial Ace and Chespin's Pin Missile cannot be remembered at the point I'm at, but maybe Chespin can remember it after level 18.

The starters are pretty much balanced the same. Other than the obvious fact you want your partner to not be the same type to spread out type advantages, you can pretty much pick whoever. Except Chikorita I guess because it's more of a support Pokemon unlike every other starter. Recruitment is way easier; once you're officially a team, completing a request nets you the Pokemon who made that request at the least. (Sometimes a related Pokemon in the line or one you met on the mission might come along.) You can also recruit Pokemon by talking with Pokemon around town.

Yeah, in the old games recruiting anyone specific was a huge pain in the rear end and some pokemon had negative recruitment rates. quote:Under optimal circumstances... The recruitment rate of Kecleon would be 0.5%, or otherwise 1/200.

That only Pokemon that were really hard to recruit in those games were ones that you could evolve, or not really matter to the overall story. If you have the chance to play the other PMD games, definitely do so, they're great. ...well, maybe not Gates. But it's not... terrible. Maybe. Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Do emeras that affect the map just not work unless you equip them on your leader? I picked up a Clairvoyant emera which says it displays the location of items on the map, but I put it on my partner and it doesn't seem to work.

Looplets and Emeras are a pretty awesome replacement for the old hold items. Really, most of the quality of life stuff introduced in this game is awesome, like being able to push your partners instead of always switching, the AI being much smarter, and moves having more range than just the binary of "right next to you" and "in a line forever." This game is what Gates should have been and then some. Owns.
