caught 60 dittos. got one perfect IVs and bonus, it's got one of the big 4 natures. can't remember which, modest I think. also got two with 0 attack but didn't get a 0 speed.

I got lucky and got a six IV ditto with a Jolly nature… but the only ditto with a zero IV I’ve caught was one in defense :negative:

I'm practically swimming in zero speed dittos but still no zero attack ones, though I feel that's a lot less necessary regardless.

If you google 'pokemon violet link trade codes' you'll find a list for people who are putting up their version-exclusives to swap. You trade using the given code. It's a bit tricky to get Scarlet exclusives because Violet seems to be much more popular but you can get them there. Either that or I'm sure someone ITT will sort you out. My Scarlet game isn't into the endgame yet so I can't get you.

How do I find a Ditto tera raid? Do I just run around the map manually checking Tera Dens of every type until I find one that has a Ditto? I assume that can't be it because people in this thread are talking about doing dozens of these raids.

Almost all of the event dens are gonna be dittos

I've taken to being the host of as many as I can because randoms can't be trusted to have the lead Pokémon be Magikarp

Just Cram It


Almost filled a box with raid Dittos, of which only 1 had 6 Ivs and the closest I have to the 0 Ivs is one with lowish attack IV. Also a DItto I surprise traded got me H-Zorua so that's nice, no need to preorder the DLC.

Anyways if anyone what's to trade Perfect Dittos to get one from a different region I have a Spanish one then.

I caught a full box of Dittos last night. 2 new 6 IVs (3 total now) and not a single 0 IV so far. I had one raid that gave me a destiny knot, and I got excited thinking this for sure had to be one of the special ones. But no, just another 5.

I think Destiny Knots are appearing with roughly the rarity of Ability Patches, because they sparkle when they show up in the feed with all the drops like they’re the big fancy get

Okay, we MUST be close to the HOME update. This is the last of the Hisui starters so what better time to showcase the ability to import those versions of these mons than after being able to catch all three original versions.

ApplesandOranges

Thankee kindly.
Okay so Typhlosion would have Fire move, Shadow Ball, Focus Blast, and one more coverage option. Its only other special moves are Solar Beam and Normal moves, so it might use a physical move in the last slot, picking between Earthquake, Play Rough, Zen Headbutt, Iron Head or Rock Slide. Probably not Wild Charge because of the recoil.

Focus Blast hits the Dark and Normal types that would resist Shadow Ball, as well as Garganacl. I could see Play Rough in the last slot since that would hit Spiritomb.

Oooh! You know I'm quite interested in this one actually. See I'm content with the Descidueye and Samurott I have in legends Arceus (although I did catch the 7 star owl in a moon ball to breed a shiny later on) but the possibility of getting a hisuian typhlosion in a love ball is tempting! drat shame master ball doesn't pass down though. Every now and again I get these colors that would just be a perfect fit but the dang ball don't mesh with breeding mechanics.

Yep; your best tactic would be using Sun and Moon's Island Scan on a Sunday for that, presuming that you have a Master Ball back in those games, then bring it through Bank to HOME. Then, evolve it in PLA, before returning it to HOME.

Presumably once HOME compatibility comes in you can bring your hsuian typhlosion over and breed it with your captured regular one to get the ball you want. There's a way of getting regional forms, right? Everstone or something?

I didn't play pokemon at all yesterday! Withdrawal symptoms. I need to see a tarountula real bad.

You can't breed for regional evolutions, but you can catch the event Typhlosion in a Love Ball, breed it, and when HOME support comes to S/V send the baby Love Ball Cyndaquil via HOME to Legends to evolve in Hisui.

That's only if S/V pokemon can be transferred to Arceus.

I guess the hope is that the changes they made to stats/patterns/movesets/etc when putting a pokemon through HOME means there'll be backward compatibility between generations for the first time since it should be technically trivial at this point, but I’m not holding my breath. but at least Sumo-Bank-HOME-evolve in PLA-Scavio, while clunky and difficult, will definitely work

That's what I did with a couple of other regional Hisuian forms: bred and EV trained them in Shield (Rowlet, Petilil, Rufflet, Goomy, and Bergmite) an Shining Pearl (Cyndaquil, Scyther, Stantler and Teddiursa) and then sent them into Legends to evolve them.

I also even bred and EV trained an Oshawott in Ultra Moon, transferred it over into Home and then into Legends to evolve it there.

So right now I'm still waiting for Home to open up and then I'll probably breed a Hisuian Arcanine, Hisuian Electrode, Sneasler, Basculegion (male and female) and Overqwil.
