Link to all the VS trainer models, so spoilers abound, as well as repeats. It also has the text graphics for all the Z-Moves.

Doesn't include trainers with full on animations, like Hau and Gladion, for example.

Wally, Cynthia, Colress :swoon:- ... Grimsley? And Guzma doesn't get an animation?

It's more trainers that don't get a full on entry animation and then a throwing Pokeball animation. Like I kinda know the difference in my head, I just can't immediately think of any examples.

For people who got this already, how's the level curve, and do trainers ever have full teams to use against you?

I'm heading in to trial 3 and levels are in the mid teens. Using EXP share and fighting everything has my fire cat at 26 and the ones I kept from early on around 20. I haven't really seen a trainer with 3 Pokemon yet.

The Strange Souvenir is $3,000 and sold at a Junes with a half off coupon.

Wait, the lady at the daycare counter just told me that pokemon you leave at the daycare will not gain any levels over time, so it's 100% only for breeding now. And yet still they don't know where eggs come from.

Look, can YOU figure out how a Drifblim and a Chandelure make a baby? Because frankly I consider that pretty freakin' mysterious.

As a side note, if we count every individual box sprite from this image, take away a few duplicates, don't include Spinda variations, add in Arceus formes and the Pikachu hat formes, then we get 1041 unique forms of Pokemon. 2082 if we count shiny.

Pretty insane.

He's not involved, just gives you a TM and says Z moves are interesting, afaik.

That event happens after the 3rd trial. An item is given but I forget what it was.


Speaking of which I just wrapped up the 4th trial. It just requires using the Stoutland itemfinder replacement and battling a Pokemon when the items are found. The game went first person for a moment and wanted me to mash A quickly.

...and I'm just now realizing this whole island trial set just served to give me the starter Pokemon Z crystals.

Playing through the game pretty slowly, so this may be old news, but wild Eevees on route 4.

RIP my wonder trade plans

I mean, I still could distribute HA Eevees with something kooky like Wish, Natural Gift, Double Edge and Trump Card but it just isn't the same if they are so freely available.

This game starts too slowly, too much handholding and railroaded, maybe I just have a lovely Rowlet but it's slow and weak, but the presentation is top notch and you can get Misdreavus super early so it's the best Pokémon yet.


Seriously though, they need a "look, I know how to play god-drat Pokémon games" option when you boot up.

Some of the early leakers were actually calling it hard so I had my hope up, but they were probably just bad or rushing then.

It's good that there are a lot more "advanced" types immediately, so to speak.

Like, you usually had to wait a while before coming across a dark type or ghosts, but both are in first up. Drowzee and Abra are immediate too.

This does in turn make the initial game a little harder because you might not have good coverage

4 hour tutorial will represent about 1% of total play time, so just make peace with it I guess.

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.
Are there dumps of all the outfits and hairstyles yet? That's all I really care about in the leaks

Lusamine pretty much went evil within a minute of meeting her.

Olivia was the first trainer to use 3 Pokemon against me. I was actually struggling a bit but now I have the ability to use Ash Greninja so that shouldn't be an issue.

You get QR scans every couple of hours, when you do 10, you scan the island for a rare pokemon, could possibly be outside the Alola dex and may be in a place you can't actually get to yet. Then you need to go catch it. Someone saw a Chikorita, I saw Horsea.

I usually get through them anywhere from 15-20 hours depending on if I have a constant supply of leveled up Pokemon available to trade over. Having defeated 2/4 Kahunas I'm at 13:41 starting island 3.

For all the people asking about the daycare, it's on Paniola Ranch, one and a half routes into the second island.

edit: They still are completely baffled by the "mysterious" concept of Pokemon eggs, despite the fact that the people who run it literally refer to themselves as Pokemon breeders.

Hey, sorry to bring it up again, but more or less how long did it take you to get to this point in the game?
