lpd446 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 1 hour ago, UnusualBoy said: But how? Isn’t it golden while the normal is like black and platinum/steel color? Try shiny hunt for Tandemaus or Tadbulb, that will leave you blind. I don’t get why they didn’t leave the sparkling sound like in PLA, some of the small pokemon are horrible to shiny hunt due to their size barely noticeable shinies They’re small and move around really fast, and during evenings everything gets a gold tint too. Especially when there’s a mass outbreak, it’s pandemonium But yea I would do masuda method for Tadbulb to save myself 😅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrimsonX Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 (edited) Ok so I made a list of my favorite Pokémon of all time. I was able to narrow it down to 45. I counted Lucario and Mega Lucario separately, I had to have both on my list. It would be impossible for me to rank them in order but these are my absolute favorites! this is the list Squirrel - Wartortle - Blastoise Charizard X Growlithe - Arcanine Galarian Form Ponyta Magby - Magmar Lapras Luxray Espeon Umbreon Mega Scizor Lugia Poochyena Milotic Salamence Rayquaza Riolu Lucario Mega Lucario Leafeon Azelf Hisuian Form Samurott Archeops Reuniclus Druddigon Braviary Keldeo Amaura Sylveon Yveltal Litten - Incineroar Cosmog Zeraora Zacian Tinkaton Grafaiai Ceruledge Miraidon it’s not in any certain order, just my favorites. I would love to hear your thoughts? We’re there any snubs? Who do you guys like? edit: added elekid, electabuzz and charmeleon to my list.

Sadly, I don't think this will be patched They fixed the sleep issue but I doubt they will fix the one with the shinies. In other news, I found a Buizel outbreak and was trying to catch a jolly one but went back to poke center for some balls then came back to the beach and found this shiny Buizel swimming , (I already had 2 shiny Floatzels stuck in US but this one will help me now) and it’s naughty which may work since its defenses are bad either way.

Relampago. Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Baxcalibur is kind of the worst psuedo ever tbh. Nothing notable about it. Very forgettable. Kommo-o is pretty bad too though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magickarp Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 They didn't forget the Shiny sounds. Diff directors, diff directorial choices. Just like how spawns are decided were changed. TIL Mew is a little ***** in the 1st Movie. Mewtwo's anime arc got cancelled due to the PorySeizures, just like BW's Plasma vs Rocket arc got scrapped due to the earthquake. The way they gave TR a wardrobe change, & made them threatening for the whole season, then suddenly reverted their wardrobe, & became clowns again Also no wonder their designs were so wonky Palkia SLAYS tho, Dialga is the only ugly one. Too bad Gods of Space & Time still get Pressure & need to hold an item to change form Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mael Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 They really need to fix the performance in Casseroya Lake, 'cause trying to hunt shinies at 10fps with Veluzas tailing my ass every 5 seconds is NOT fun.

thatsmydemi Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Came across a tweet with mega evolutions and I have to say I miss them (let's ignore some questionable choices they made though). I just know the day they return is gonna be a collapse in the Pokemon community. Can't wait . The number of possibilities now with all the new mons since gen 6. The potential mega evolution has now is huge. What's your top 3? 1. Mega Mawile 2. Mega Manectric 3. Mega Altaria I still remember my Mega Manectric VGC team from Sun and Moon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only good thing is while battling one Vaporeon, I found a shiny Veluza lol. 18 hours ago, thatsmydemi said: Came across a tweet with mega evolutions and I have to say I miss them (let's ignore some questionable choices they made though).

They should clear all the 5-6 star raids, just have them above level 70 for those raids otherwise you may get 1 or 2 hits KO'ed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m starting to get the sense that buffing yourself/debuffing the opponent is the way to go, yes?

But once they put the shield and reset, start buffing yourself up again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not an expert but I've beaten several 5 stars by buffing up and then hitting with a super effective move. Make sure you can resist both the original and the tera type moves as well. The biggest problem is fainting because it takes away a chunk of time. Miraidon/Koraidon are usually good choice for most raids as well (and then Azumarill ).

Kommo-o is pretty bad too though. They need to stop with the pseudo always being a dragon. It's so tired and predictable, at this point they are bleeding into each other and a lot of them are totally unremarkable (goodra, kommo-o, baxcalibur for sure). The possibilities are endless, they could do so many cool things but they insist on going with yet another dragon each time and it's boring AF.
