Decus posted:Oh, you mentioned S.O.S. battles. Did you know that a status effect stops them so long as you aren't mid-trial? During trials they can call stuff while status'd but not outside of them. Beyond that, I wouldn't play the game with a "never run" or "no repel" rule. They shouldn't affect difficulty outside of that. What's a "never run" rule for? Just to make the game slower or decrease number of random battles?

Sunny Day is on persian SPECIFICALLY so he can switch in on Pelippers and use it, literally no other reason, and theres lots of other great moves for it that dont gimp a third of your team so consider changing that

Blaziken386 posted:If you run into a wild pokemon and you're weak, too bad, hope you kill it before it kills you. Yeah that's terrible in this game because certain wild pokemon (looking at you, Salandit) will gently caress up your poo poo if you get unlucky, to the tune of eating 1-2 dragon rages a turn because of called help when your pokemon don't even have 80 max hp yet.

The Shortest Path posted:I would assume so that it doesn't get splatted by incidental earthquake damage, also so it's safe to switch in against said earthquakes. Honestly that seems like a good idea. Maybe open with Ninetales and Poison Silvally betting on the fact that they will try to Tapu immediately and Multi Attack them before parting shotting out for Overcoat Kommo.

Blaziken386 posted:If you run into a wild pokemon and you're weak, too bad, hope you kill it before it kills you. Ohhhh. I was thinking, like, don't ever press "b" to move faster. Regarding a living dex, is one to collect one of each for things like oricoririoricorio or the meteor? Maybe in a bonus box somewhere with the alola forms and stuff? I'm just building my Alola one right now as practice for pokemon bank eventually, but I'm not sure on the standards. Some stuff you couldn't, like Spinda.

I think I want to put a Mimikyu in the Beast Ball. I have a few questions though. 1. Does the nature matter? 2. Does the gender matter? I'm pretty sure that if I get a male I can breed it with Ditto until I get the ability I want. Then Everstone and breed for better IVs? If I get female I can just start breeding pre-ditto? Is that the only advantage?

This is probably the only time where a Pyukumuku has killed something without innards out http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7vgc2017-486257689 Dr. Fetus posted:I'm wondering how we're going to get the missing Mega Stones since Pokebank doesn't allow for such a thing. I think all the mega stones are already in the game; I've seen stuff like Mega Beedrill and Mawlie in the Royale. They'll probably just enable them to be bought with BP in the update that also adds Pokebank support.

The earliest point you can trade is after unlocking the festival plaza, which is just after the cutscene where Hau shows you how to use a pokemon center for the first time. So pretty early.

Do the Elite 4 give prize money and can you farm them for prize money after becoming champion? I just want to know if I should bring my Big Pimp Daddy Snorlax for Happy Hour/Amulet Coin during those particular fights.

It's not as much of a walk in the park as Gen VI was, and there are points where you're very likely to lose a Pokemon. Namely the Totem battles. So how are Z moves working out in comp. singles and VGC?

Namely the Totem battles. people here have said mixed things, but most people seem to say "it's good if you go in with knowledge" and I already beat the game normally once. i'm down to lose pokemon, that's half the point, but i've never actually finished out a nuzlocke because i generally dont replay RPGs so this could be an opportunity to actually do that. but at the same time having an alt starter and just using different mons could be cool. idk, i have a few days to think about it yet.
