greatn posted:How would an official release mean you wouldn't be playing blind? Never underestimate how fast the community is to pump out in depth info, datamine, or just plain speedrun through everything in these games. That info slows to a trickle when most people are still under the assumption that the game's never coming out.

Thanks, that makes sense now. I should have just pulled up the catalog and checked the item. Thankfully I still won.

Uh, maybe a Pokemon Ranger game is also a good pick, since they're also very simple, though the second one is the better one, as the first Ranger game isn't as good.

All the pokemon games are made for literal children so get him any one but I recommend Black/White over HGSS any gen 4 game because it's kind of a soft reboot and it's actually balanced to be played by humans without massive amounts of grinding/forcing you to stick with 3 and only 3 pokemon.

be a good uncle/aunt and buy her a new 3ds and pokemon moon (the best version). I guess you can settle with pokemon white and let her beat up on Iris.

Platinum is strictly superior to either of the other two and there's no reason to play them over Plat. Personally my vote goes to Black or White.

It also has the best design for the female protag, and the best regional Dex, imo. Plus, to start you can only catch Unova Pokemon, so she might feel less overwhelmed. Whatever game you choose, I hope she enjoys it. You are a good auntie/uncle.

Seconding/thirding/whatevering the Black/White suggestions. DP are strictly worse than Platinum, and while I love the Sinnoh region I think Black/White would be better as first Pokemon game. X/Y and a 2DS wouldn't be a bad idea either, if she's more concerned with playing with Pokemon that are prominently seen in advertisements/toys/etc.

Does this game have one of those endgame areas that has all the utilities I could want, like a daycare and an IV rater? I assumed the day care would be where it's at but all I'm seeing is a handful of BP vendors.

I assumed the day care would be where it's at but all I'm seeing is a handful of BP vendors. The IV rater is now a PC function. Talk to the Ace Trainer in front of the Battle Tree to unlock it (after hatching 20 eggs), and from then on you can toggle the 'Judge' button in the bottom right to view anyone's IV spreads.

You may end up getting bored breeding her so know that sableye and castform work just as well for trading. I've just been cycling those three thru the list of UBs to get multiples because gotta do something. Right, I also have Sableye as well, time to make lots of Sableye and Castform babies

Why is pelipper suddenly showing up so much? Is the only drizzler in alola, or did he get buffed somehow? I was just thinking about breeding one, but I don't have Sun/Moon yet so I wanna make sure I wouldn't be wasting my time.

Odd request: Can someone playing in a different language than English breed one of these moon ball Rockruffs and send the foreign child back? I can only offer friend ball Rockruffs as payment.

I wouldn't expect anything other than the Rocky Helmet glitch and probably some other dual KO lose conditions being fixed.

Ignite Memories posted:Why is pelipper suddenly showing up so much? Is the only drizzler in alola, or did he get buffed somehow? It does get Drizzle, but it has a lot more going for it that makes it more appealing than Politoed. It has Roost for recovery, and slow U-turns which can be good for momentum. It also got 10 point boost to its Special Attack this gen.

But if I breed a pelipper in XY, it'll still get the 10 point boost when i move it up a generation in january, right? I would assume it works that way if my awesome gengar loses levitate. I just don't wanna have to do this twice.

Yeah, any changes made to a Pokemon in the current gen get applied to imported mons from a previous one.
