Well, not the worst way to waste time the anime has come up with. At least it’s not endless tournament arcs.

What's the best set for something to trample the Elite Four as efficiently as possible for grinding? I'm running a Reshiram/Zekrom duo but apparently Zekrom doesn't get EQ which makes the whole Mold Breaker advantage they have useless on Olivia.

There are a lot of good pokemon if you're wanting to solo elite 4, but if you're trying to grind elite 4 for XP or money tho there are better options (SOS Chansey battles in Pony Plains for XP, Battle Agency for money & FC).

Also message me your friend code or something if you want to do some VGC, you seem to not be accepting messages through SA.

We calculated it out in Discord. Best is Kyurem-Black overall since its literally the only Pokemon that can OHKO every pokemon in the E4.

Seems legit. I wound up maxing out Reshiram and slapping Choice Specs on it - it does the same thing at the cost of my Amulet slot.

I have a few things that just need trade/tradebacks, and then, I need someone with Ultra Moon to help me nab Lunala- I have a Cosmoem at level 52 with a rare candy attached, so I just need to trade it over and have someone evolve it.

Anyone around?

It's great, right? Too bad it's the one Rotom power I've somehow never pulled.

I've gotten 12 PP Restores and at least 4 of everything else. Never Rotom Catch. :negative:

Just get rotom powers while breeding, you'll gather them up really fast. Besides for Roto-hatch, that one seems really rare.

We are so loving sentai this cour. Worth noting that the only UBs missing are Guzzlord and one UB-02 & UB-04. I'm guessing Guzzlord will show up in the later parts of this arc, but the other two are probably getting skipped altogether. Given that the last poster did only cover a cour, i'm guessing this'll also run from 61 to 73 at most, which makes sense given that there's barely over half a dozen UBs to deal with.

I'm just glad Nanu's going to appear. I mean, of course he is since the other two Kahunas were also present and gave Ash his Grand Trials but okay.

Also it looks like Acerola's Mimikyu has a non-standard character design. It might be a shiny on top of having a patched cloth and a flower.

that's because he can ONLY fly faster than the speed of sound, which is not safe for a human child to ride

There's no official national dex in Sun/Moon or Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon and they're not Alola natives, so. The only national dex this generation is part of bank.

Man, gently caress gamefreak. If Type:Null and Silvally get entries, then there's no reason for the UBs not to.

You misunderstood. UBs get Pokedex entries, but the ultra wormhole legendaries/non-Alolans you can catch don't.

This is probably their model going forward with how many Pokemon there are. I wouldn't be surprised if the National Dex never came back.
