Didn't I kill him with a HELICOPTER?
According to GameXplain, Mega Evolution is not part of the main story, so the screens and video we've seen with them are strictly post-game. So final battles in the story should be in the high 50s or low 60s level-wise.

For me it was only noticeable in the trial fight when the camera sweeps over the whole field. Not unplayable or anything but deffinitely there.

It should be noted that only female mosquitos drink blood in order to incubate their eggs. Not that the game has to follow real-world biology, but the mosquito may be female, despite appearances.

Same. I haven't noticed any slowness in loading or in framerates. Even Pokefinder was running just fine for me.

No, TMs are currently one of the only pieces of worthwhile loot in the game and a good reward for exploration. Taking them out would be a terrible idea.

Mmmm maybe. Between Bulletproof and Soundproof which would be better though?

I think Soundproof would be good to counter pixelated Hyper Voice.

Unless it gets a really good HA.

basically all soundproof does of note is mess up pixelated Hyper Voice (unless new moves are sound-baed) which isnt awful for sure but probably is more bsaed on if you have good anti-fairy switches on your team. bulletproof stops a lot of random junk is a pretty good general-purpose ability

I noticed some during the totem boss or whatever. He summoned a helper Pokemon and it started lagging, makes me worried about any double battles.

I'm thinking I'll start looking into scoring a New 3DS before the new games come out just to be sure.

Are Team Skull the reapers from TWEWY before they died?

The demo is okay. Wish we could transfer a couple Pokemon across.

Really want to go with Owl, Koala, Rock Puppy and perhaps the anchor thing. Are there any nice new water, psychic or ghost types?

If UB are really people that turn into Pokemon, then instead of catching one, the trainer should just eventually gain the ability to turn into one.

They don't turn into Pokemon, we see a UB invasion in some of the trailers and in one I'm pretty sure the person its based on is there (UB-01 who looks like the girl with the big hat).

I think they're mimicking them. Or maybe they are them from an alternate dimension (maybe the regular world without Mega-evolution we were in Gen 1-5) :tinfoil:

Lillie is not present when the player meets UB-01

All the best octopodes shoot fire and ice.
So just to clarify its not on those specific dates that events happen. As I finished the demo yesterday and the guy is still telling me to talk to him tomorrow. The girl in the southwest corner of town is telling me 5 days which would put it at the 24th not the 23rd. The Pikachu guy in City Hall is telling me 12 days which should put it at October 31st not November 2nd. The Shady deal at the marina is taking place in 18 days putting it on November 6th instead of the 5th. And the nervous girl in the marina is having someone meet her in 24 days putting it on November 12th instead of the 11th. I don't know if these times are relative based on when you finish the demo or if they are based on when you talk to them. So if you have not talked to these guys in your demo yet definitely talk to them just to be safe.

Sorry if I missed this, but the thread's moving awfully fast - the box legendaries have pre-egos now? How the hell am I supposed to finish my living dex in S&M? It's annoying enough trying to trade for the alternate version legend as is.

Yeah, it looks like it.

Along with Zygarde having a cell forme you hunt down the bits for, I have a feeling you get the Legendary prevos fairly early and part of the plot is powering them up to help take out some UBs.

Especially since the island Guardians are getting their rear end kicked in cutscenes by UBs.

That's weird. I finished the demo at like, 7 PM yesterday. This morning I booted it again while I was getting ready to go to work (so, circa 6 AM) and the dude handed me the wings.

Maybe it's like daily quests in WoW or other MMOs? It doesn't matter if you get it at 7pm or 4am, once the next "rollover" hits it advances.

So it's not strictly 24 hours. It's just "the next rollover".

Particularly since there's a new pokeball that seems to be related to the UBs that also looks sorta like what might be Solgaleo's pre-evo.

You should be able to go forward, but probably not backward.
