Its something that can happen to your pokemon from battling a wild one. The odds, at least in previous games, are even less than the odds of encountering a shiny.

Pokemon with pokerus get double the EVs they normally would. It lets you train much faster/easier. However, this doubling effect doesn't apply to vitamins, and with the cap on vitamins no longer an issue in this gen, I don't know if pokerus is as big a help any more.

Pokerus can spread through your party each time you battle. However, at midnight after a couple days, it will be cured and no longer spread - your pokemon will still benefit from it but can't pass it on to others. For that reason its suggested to spread it to several spare pokemon and shove them in a box, so you can always infect new pokemon later.

Note that it's specifically at midnight that it updates so as long as your Pokerus 'mon is always in the PC at midnight it'll never lose Pokerus.

I mean people on the big streams are talking about their pkhex'd mons since about 2 days ago.


AFAIK, you can PKHex your own mons fine. It's trying to do the online/multiplayer stuff where it becomes an issue and why you need a non-jailbroken Switch without the CFW/whatever it's called patch. You can make them for your own game as much as you want, but they can't be traded without risking a ban. You can trade if you have two Switches like that, but the $700 upfront just to trade hacked mons is a bit much for anyone not making money off it.

At least, that's my limited understanding of it from reading a few forums discussing it.

Edit^^^:HA scorbunny isn't available yet but I'm fairly certain they're already being traded.

Vitamins are still expensive - running gigantamax meowth through the champions cup might still be a slower EV training method than filling an entire party with mons to be EV trained at one time.

Perhaps gigantamax meowth in the battle tower to farm pokedollars and BP at the same time. Shame about his stats though

I think it’s hilarious that raid mons stats are fixed so you can game the system with friends. Find a shiny or high IV pokemon and reset the game. Invite some friends, do the raid again, they catch you reset and repeat as many times until your group has enough to pass around.

Good to know if you find a high IV ditto.

It's based on what language the game is being played in. So if you're playing in Chinese, sure.

They're in the lake of outrage. I'm going to try and catch one in a moon ball today. Just for the record I'm going to be a little standoffish with the breeding till pokemon home comes out and I can transfer my breeding stable of dittos into the game. At which point I'll really be in business and you guys can make whatever requests you'd like. For now I'm probably going to be sniffing about for version exclusives though so if you have shield and you're looking for anything in particular gimme a ring.

I'm thinking of replacing the Bolthund in my party because wow they did my boy Yamper dirty with that evo. I'm thinking a grass type to fill in holes in my roster but also I don't know so I'm throwing it out to the thread to say what types I should get at least. I do have a Grooky I can use, or Leafeon as I've never used that Eeveelution, but they are only monotype. My current party is/will be Cinderace, Corviknight, Gardevoir, Dubwool, Sirfetch'd.

As for when to evolve your eevees, is that not asap?

There is pretty much no reason not to use an evolution item on a Pokemon ASAP this generation. They made pre-evolution exclusive moves a thing of the past, and most item evolution mons can just relearn their pre-evo's moveset through the move relearner.

Does anyone have a Gothita/Turtanator/Dieno they can breed for me? IV's and whatnot don't really matter to me as they're just things I need for my dex. I'm currently at 358 and they're going to be my biggest hurdles (as well as finding a foreign ditto so I can start my shiny breeding like a complete weirdo)

I'm what the kids call: a big nerd
something I just learned: unlike literally every other instance of online stuff, inviting people into your raid does not save the game.
What does this mean, you ask? It means if you fight a gigantamax pokemon with friends, and it breaks out of the ball, you can reset the game, and your friends still have a chance to catch it. While the host can only get it once, your friends could feasibly capture the same gmax pokemon multiple times. :eyepop:
