This is Canada. It snows nine months of the year, and hails the other three.

Anyone have a guide or checklist they used to get all the clothing in game? Or, like, where it all is?

Long time no post board! Oi, I'm sitting on literal pile of shinies at this point and I'd like to get some trading done. I'm looking for a moon ball Drampa/sneasel stats don't matter.

Shinies include: a Xerneas, Dodrio, Staravia, two Swalot, Carracosta, Krookodile and sandile with 5-6 IVs, and an elgem

FC: is 5129-5306-3661 In game name is Kane.

Rotom is a good buddy/pokedex, but he really needs to shut up about saving when I literally just saved 5 minutes ago.

It'd also be cool if he stopped telling me the same 5 pieces of advice I didn't ask for, and nagging me about healing when one mon is in red HP.

It's a pretty roundabout way to change them tho. There is a guy in the GameFreak office that lets you swap between just the circle pad or motion controls.

What really gets me is that if you, say, wish to access the map, you can't if Rotom is chattering away until he's done. This combined with the fact that he seems to have about 50% chance to pipe up with something after any scene transition is pretty annoying.

It seems the advice points are slowly cycling to new ones so I hope the game realizes that eventually I will have to have seen them all multiple times, and just stops.

<click> <click> What is it with this dancing?! Bouncing around like fools... I would have thought my own kind at least would understand the seriousness of our Adventurer's Guild!

After a spoiler-avoiding thread hiatus, I'm back, having completed the main game and the Rainbow Rocket quest in the postgame. I didn't know what my team would be, but it ended up being:

Primarina
Zoroark
Hawlucha (the traded one, holy hell is it strong)
Palossand
Turtonator
Naganadel

I think I'm finally getting the hang of spelling that last one. I wanted to use it, but looking up how it evolved upset me because it was technically only possible once you get to the move relearner. I stopped everything to evolve it and grind it to be on pace with the rest of my team and I don't regret it, but I still wish it were more battle-ready when you first obtain it. Poipole in and of itself is not THAT strong, and level 40 is an insult.

The game was great though. I love all the added viginettes, sidequests, and flavor added to the game world. This is the kind of crap I crave. Those who say there aren't enough changes just aren't looking in the right spots.

Does anyone know what optional fights/things I can do in the postgame? They were a bit scattered out in the original, and while I think I remember most of them, I don't want to screw up and miss out on something or other.

I lost against that. Brick Break sure is a nasty surprise when the only member of your team that can fight Marowak decently is Rockruff.

I ended up winning by grinding Rockruff to evolution and giving him Normalium-Z. Lycanroc Dusk can take a Brick Break (but not more than one) which gave me time to use Z-Happy Hour and follow it with a boosted Rock Tomb (too bad it doesn't make Contact so Tough Claws is pointless here). It wasn't enough to kill Marowak but it greatly weakened it, giving the rest of my team a chance at victory.

Half of my team was overleveled and disobedient, and the other half were weak to its attacks. It is so fast and hits so hard that getting enough rounds to apply Toxic and then wait it out can be a problem! I can see kids getting completely walled by this boss.

Buy ten million revives and spend every turn reviving Pokemkn I guess.

I haven’t hit it yet and I’m afraid that I won’t be able to to much to it myself since Fairy hits A-Muk for neutral damage.

It likes to quiver dance, so you basically have to hit it physically hard real fast or do SOMETHING. Once it gets going, no matter what Pokemon you send out it will OHKO it. At least that was my experience, just using a revive each turn and waiting for toxic.

Oh yeah that reminds me of how Ultra Necrozma sort of underwhelmed me because all it did was spam Photon Geyser, which my Zoroark was immune to, while I just stabbed it until it fainted. Whoops.

But yeah, the fairy totem and electric totem were both incredibly surprising to me in their strength. I also liked how the totem for the Electric trial, Togedemaru, synergizes with both Sophocles and Molayne, being Electric and Steel-type masters. That felt right to me. Also, it's not as easy to clown on Totem Kommo-o as it used to be since you don't get Fairium Z right before the battle anymore, so that was a bit more of an upwards hike. Ah well.

I'm probably gonna have to resort to this against Totem Kommo-o, I straight up do not have a legitimate answer to that guy.

One thing's for sure: this is hardest a Pokemon game has ever been, at least with the exp. share turned off
