I really hate people who cheat their game, for the reason that I've managed to find about three shinys since GSC, and have always had the pride of showing them off.

I mean, hey, I like being proud of my rare finds, but to each their own.

You know that having more than three shinies does not necessarily mean they were genned right? I've got a full team of level 100 Beast Ball shinies, each of them 100% legit. Just because someone spends more time on the game than you doesn't make them "cheaters".

I hatched a shiny Inkay the other day. I need to get it to level 100 in a game where grinding is a huge pain in the rear end in order to make it competitive, but at least it had the right ability. The main reason the battle spot is driving me crazy is that I need a 50-win streak to get an Ability Capsule for my Limber shiny Toxapex.

Kinda late for this, but why not just buy an ability capsule at the battle royal dome for 100 BP?

Because you can't use the ability capsule to access hidden abilities, and that's the only really good one for Mareanie/Toxapex.

I mean, granted, but it's not about making the ideal build in this case. It's squeezing the maximum utility out of a Pokemon who otherwise wouldn't have much to do besides look pretty in the PC Box.

He already knows that but is still trying to get an ability capsule. 100BP is way easier to get than a 50-win streak.

Some Festival Plaza thoughts.
1. I have Sinnoh Tent 5* now, if anyone cares about the tents.
2. Is there any goddamn logic to the "Do you know how I feel? Take me to a place I'll like" assholes?
3. I just saw somebody with Festival Plaza rank 320. How the poo poo. Does he/she just play this poo poo 24/7 or what.

The max rank that anything "unusual" happens is level 100, you get a special phrase to greet people with instead of a new stall. After that point it's just a level up and a new stall every so often at fixed point intervals, ad infinitum.

The correct response to "Take me to a place you think I'll like" is chosen at random for each guest that says it, and you just have to get lucky with the type of stall they want.

I hadn't played a Pokemon game since Platinum so I figured I'd try and get back into the series with SuMo, and I decided to make it a Nuzlocke playthrough for extra funsies.

It's pretty fun so far. I like having to actually pay attention to things like typing and whether something is special- or physical-oriented, and having my Pokemon choice limited helps with my wishy washy nature of being unable to decide what Pokemon to use. I've had two deaths so far, one due to poor luck (Rattata that knew Pursuit with my Ghastly named Danny, RIP) and one because I never expected a loving Zubat of all things to be a threat: Gladeon's, in your first encounter with him (Garfield, you shall be missed). Comparatively Type:Null has a complete non-issue thanks to my Mudbray.

Okay, I hate to be that guy but where the heck is the link to claim the mega stones from the Feb. 2017 competition? Seriously, I've been poring over the pokemon global link website, and it clearly has me registered (with sterling performance rank of 74,000 out of 110,000 participants) but I can't find the code or what have you anywhere.
