I really hope the exp share comes back because I can't limit myself to only six of these cool new dudes

Even with the exp share I'm still probably going to have to do multiple playthroughs

Should I use Drapion or Scoliopede in my White 2 run?

I've decided I'm going to use Drapion as it has much better coverage pre-gen 6. I'll save Scoliopede for a Sun/Moon play through cause I know I'm gonna be replaying that game a bunch

Goddamn, this gen is threatening to unseat Gen 5 as the best one yet. All of these new dudes own super hard

Every game since B2/W2 Gamefreak have been giving old Pokemon that show up in the main game little stat/movepool buffs, so I'm also excited to see what the old friends in this one got

Yo, can anyone help me evolve my Charjabug? I figure if I give it a rare candy to hold I can trade it someone who's made it to Poni Canyon (is that the right area) and they can evolve it for me

Does anyone know when the soonest you can get Vulpix is? The pokedex is making it look like it's stuck in the mountainous area where the league is going to be and I'm probably not going to be able to get to 'til way later, but I did just pick up an Ice Stone in Po Town so...

Yeah, they mostly have the same exclusives so if you have Sun you might want to grab Ultra Moon so you have an even spread.

:shrug:

I'm going Moon-> Ultra Sun. Mostly so I can get a Passimian in the story because Rugby Monkey has always been cool.

Better hope Passimian has a better encounter rate than he did in Sun, where it was 5% in exactly one area. I bought Sun partly for one and I still don't have it

why even post this if youre not trying to discredit the complaints

anyway on the 'easy allies' podcast (idk what that is) they said they heard the switchmon is going to be "disruptive" in the spirit of botw or mario odyssey (i guess being a good mario game is 'disruptive' after the wii u one idk)

Honestly the Alola games already feel pretty disruptive, especially with the little vignettes in USUM

It likes to quiver dance, so you basically have to hit it physically hard real fast or do SOMETHING. Once it gets going, no matter what Pokemon you send out it will OHKO it. At least that was my experience, just using a revive each turn and waiting for toxic.

I'm probably gonna have to resort to this against Totem Kommo-o, I straight up do not have a legitimate answer to that guy.

One thing's for sure: this is hardest a Pokemon game has ever been, at least with the exp. share turned off

What's a good flyer to use in Pokemon Y? I'm late to the 3DS party and trying to choose what my aerial transportation will be but most of the options for that kind of suck. Preferably something introduced in B/W or X/Y because I like using new mons.

Also Honedge is awesome and I am glad it exists.

Golurk, my dude. You can find it’s pre-evolved form, Golette, on route 10 I think
