It took until whenever it got bullet punch for that. I think it was HG/SS because I remember having to use Quick Attack in the PBR tournament.

i really wish you could start the game with the ability to see IVs, or even that you could see a pokemon's IVs before you catch it. it would add a ton of time to my playthrough if i could go hunting for pokemon with good IVs in a more convenient fashion.

i'd spend a few hours hunting for an early game wild pokemon with decent IVs and it would add a lot more to a playthrough. maybe just a new game plus with this stuff? i like playing through a pokemon game repeatedly please cater to me gamefreak.

Gen 2 is probably my favorite Pokemon generation for nostalgia reasons, but I have always hated Scizor's design.

Gen 2 is where they introduced Mareep so that will always be the best generation to me. Pokemon X/Y gets a lot of bonus points for giving Ampharos a Mega Evolution and allowing me to pet my sheep friend, though.

That's EVs, you have to beat the game and talk to the IV Judge character at the Battle Tree to get the PC extension.

Scizor is one of the original bug/steel types and thus way better than Scyther in every way.

Gen 2 was what I enjoyed the most as a kid but looking back, the Gen 2 pokemon are probably my least favorite and Gen 2 Kanto was horribly designed.

I've been giving them Lucky Egg and a rainbow bean to try to get them to 48 faster to get Memento but then they've evolved and Memento moved to 57.

You have to press B mid evolution animation not just hold it from the start. 3DS buttons aren't rapid fire.

I'll mash the hell out of it next time but i would've sworn that in both XY and ORAS hitting B once to dismiss the text box and then hitting it a second time and holding it down worked 100% of the time.

Hey thread does anyone know if there's anything else to the alternate Alola you go to to get a Cosmog? Since it's pretty much supposed to the Alola of the other game version, can you catch version exclusives there or anything?

You can't catch version exclusives, or evolve Pokemon to version-exclusive forms, but you can evolve day/night-only evolutions in the other world.

You can catch the other version of Lycanroc there, but Rockruff will still only evolve into your game's version.

I press A to dismiss the textbox, then B to stop the evolution.

You can catch the other version of Lycanroc without going over too. Both show up during day/night respectively in Great Poni Canyon.

Lets you do anything that needs the opposite time of day, namely time of day evolutions, wild pokemon, and the zygarde cells that only show up during day/night.
