ZenMasterBullshit posted:I'm sorry but if you think Lando-T is annoying or OP or bad your team is bad and you should instead get good. To be fair, they're overused in the competitive scene; especially Lando-T. Personally I prefer their therian formes over their incarnate ones, especially with the addition of the fourth member making up the 4 secret beasts of China. I also read the Festival of Champions up to the latest chapter, and it's a great accumulation of everything pokemon up to this point; it's like I'm reading an adaptaiton of Pokemon Stadium I also surprised that Green/Blue/Gary gave Blue/Green/Leaf his Eevee after they fell into depression over Raticate's death; and yes they used the dead Raticate theory on this one.

Is it possible to get Oak’s Letter and other mystery gift items from mixing records or something? Or are they gone forever? Very annoying if they are.

does the grit you get depend on the pokemon you release, or something? I tried googling but all I can find is content-farm bullshit telling me stuff I already know.

Hammerite posted:does the grit you get depend on the pokemon you release, or something? Yeah it does - higher level pokemon and alphas yield higher grit items when released. I learned this when I was sorting through my alpha-dex and released a bunch of Alphas all at once and got almost all grit rocks

Yeah, you want a bunch of lower-level grit you need to catch a bunch of low level non-alpha Pokemon and do mass releases.

Since time manipulation is going to be a thing in ScarViolet my biggest desire currently would be a hyperbaric time chamber but for mass-producing pokemon eggs.  The EternaCare Center!

Still curious if that was a fluke (though he also won the Orange Islands tournament and the Battle Frontier) or if they’ll let him beat Leon at the end of the current season as well

Mraagvpeine posted:What do you suppose is Ash's strongest team of Pokemon at this point? I'd say his current one, but that one has access to Mega evolution and Gigantamax. Otherwise I believe its a toss-up between that team, his Sun and Moon team, his X and Y team and his Diamond and Pearl team. All of them have clear aces.

Also I forget, does a new incarnation of the anime typically begin before, after, or around the same time as a new mainline game comes out (though considering the whole world tour bit they could presumably just keep the current series going in this case and add the Gen 9 region/Pokémon into the mix)?

Pikachu, Charizard, Greninja, Lucario, Gengar, and then you can probably throw in Snorlax or Infernape or Sceptile to round it out. Larryb posted:Good point. Usually right around the same time as the new games.

For some reason I am trying very hard to catch pretty much everything available in Shining Pearl, which I guess makes sense because the last time I fully completed the Nationaldex was in Pokémon Platinum*. Well anyway, if anyone has Brilliant Diamond and wants to trade all the version exclusives to me and also some Fire/Thunder/Sun Stones and the Skull & Helix fossils, that’d be super cool. *I also completed the Galar Pokédex & Isle of Armor Pokédex, but not the Crown Tundra. Maybe I’ll go back and do that one too.

Just a heads up although I'm not sure if anyone's going to care (this board is essentially the only place I interact with people about pokemon so figured I might well post this here) I'm about to start doing some spring cleaning as it were. That means I'm going to start wonder trading my now massive collection of shinies to open up some much needed space. If any wants any kind of shiny at this point please ask me. I don't want anything in return but if there's something you're looking for now's the time to ask before I start giving them away online. At this point I have multiples of several varieties so please don't hesitate to ask.

teen phone cutie posted:is there a way to reset the guy on route 221 in BDSP that asks for a certain level pokemon and gives you a focus sash? every day it's a new level. the prize rotates between three martial-arts-themed held items, changing every time you show him a pokemon of the level he wants. Hope that helps! e: I think it's focus sash, expert belt, and black belt e2: to clarify, if you got a focus sash from the guy and then used it up in a non-battle-tower match, you would have to get an expert belt and a black belt from the guy over two more days before he'll give you another focus sash on the third day.

I for one love Lando-T, both for it's looks and it's competitive viability. I honestly wish it learned a better flying type attack than Fly though.
