Dragapult is good and precious and my friend. Edit: Hell of a snype. Question - does anyone know if it counts as a new encounter when you go to catch a raid mon? Are quick balls effective? cptn_dr fucked around with this message at 07:09 on Nov 25, 2019 |

Mef989 posted:What's the trick to getting a 5 IV Ditto? Do you breed up to them or do you just have to get lucky and find one in the wild? Do the soft reset trick (one of my old posts has details) on the raid den that spawns ditto as the rare spawn, it guarantees 4 perfect IVs at 5 star and 3 perfects at 4 star. You can’t breed dittos.

This game is a motherfucker for hunting pokemon with hidden abilities. I've been circling through the same 3 dens tossing wishing stones in crossing my fingers I'll get the right mon. This system is awful.

If you kill the Noiverns their place can be filled by the other, slower Pokemon.

I mean it's fine, just a little rough around the edges with a couple glaring cuts. If your GF is the type to hyper-analyze all flaws in something then maybe don't, but otherwise it's good pocketman catching funtimes.

He’s unbeatable because everyone keeps trying to run easily countered monoteams and can’t count to 6.

do you think pokemon eggs are different according to the species like bug eggs are soft and transparent, bird eggs are classic eggs, dragon eggs are big, mammal pokemon eggs are made of placenta rock pokemon eggs are made of rock obviously. ghost pokemons eggs are rotten husks

The pokemon games being what they are you really don't expect much but going from Gen 7 to 8 it's shocking how hollow the story and characters are. I know you're not exactly getting some prize winning story but you just kind of get nothing. Team Yell is the weakest antagonist team in the entire franchise. I don't know how they went from such a high with Team Skull to this.

Spikemuth comes late enough in the challenge to not have many visitors, but doesn't have the prestige of being the final gym, and if Piers did poorly in the Gym placement tournament that would reflect poorly on the place too.

FF7 was rated for Teens so "your average 10 year old" wasn't supposed to be playing it, hth. Understanding the story or not doesn't preclude someone from enjoying a game purely mechanically, also: Rudoku posted:I didn't know that Sephiroth was basically dead during the first disc and you're chasing body parts until someone pointed it out to me about 10 years later... Is there any news yet about what event Pokemon are going to be released when Meowth goes away?

Speaking of, I was wondering how to describe the vague bit distinctive fashion style Pokemon games have, especially for the default outfits of the main character. Outdoorsman chic? Like if you mixed and matched between a boutique and a hiking goods store. Most everyone's likely to have big elaborate boots.

To be fair to the 10 year olds, a lot of teens who were 'supposed' to be playing it didn't seem to quite get the story either. The janky translation probably didn't help, but there were a loooot of people who didn't quite get what was going on with Cloud, the whole Rashomon-esque thing with Nibelheim, Sephiroth and Jenova, etc. Square has ridden the "broody Cloud" train since, but that misunderstanding didn't start with them, for example.
