Just beat the fifth trial and tested out the new Z-Crystal

Spoiler

HOLY ****ING **** THE Z-STEEL MOVE IS LITERALLY GIGA DRILL BREAK
Probably my favorite Z-Move out of all the ones I have

 

[FalKoopa]

Nintendo is apparently going after Zelda porn artists. (Just google it, can't link it here.)

Yeah, good luck with that.

Call me when someone gets brutally beaten to death because they were white/male/straight/cis

Anywhere you'd be beaten for being white you'd be far more likely to be beaten for being LGBT by the same people. So you've got a good point that TBH I can't argue with at all.

If you're still looking for it, Serebii says some cells only show up in either night or day so you should check that
And have you gotten the 5 cores too?

I've got all the cores, and I'm still in the process of rechecking everything regardless of if I remember getting the cell or not. Because I remember when I had two more left I went crazy looking for at least one and it ended up being somewhere pretty obvious that I swore I thought I got, but softresets can screw you over if you're collecting them on your main playthrough.

Since I'm having no luck I'm just going to level up Type Null for a bit. I should probably keep him in my party with all the walking around I'm going to be doing, at least that'll make use out of something and raise its happiness.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Yay, thanks for that
Add me and post your FC
Mine's 0018-4498-1775
I'll be getting ready for the trade

Ill tell ya when im ready. Im breeding this cleffa to hold the necter

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

I was wondering if they were day or night exclusive because I went through areas more than once and suddenly a core was there

Or cell or whatever

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Question to SM players: You know how you can get rustling grass by walking for a while and something similar in water? Can you use a repel and walk around to trigger it? Because Mareanie has a 20% of getting SOS'd if you fish in those, and I'm going to try and get one with a Hidden Ability

Mareanie can only be summoned by Corsola ironically.

I thought it was common knowledge that once something appears on the internet, it'll NEVER go away

 

[Swamp Sensei]

You know what Nintendo should do


Make the Wii U $149

Also I hope they still have OG PS4s in stock

I still want to play SFV despite it all

All things considered. It's still super fun. Who would you play?

Go through the areas in the same order you'd do in the maingame during the day and then do the same at night
Might be boring and long but hey, it's bound to work, right?

Rustling grass are only set areas where a Pokemon will jump at you, they always happen in the same place everytime you leave and reenter the area
Rustling water is for fishing and is random but running near it will make it disappear, it won't show up while you're in the area

Also, just go for Merciless Mareanie
Baneful Banker+Venoshock+Guaranteed crit op even with its terrible offenses

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Mareanie can only be summoned by Corsola ironically.

Is that the ONLY way to get it?

I want to use it in my moon version, which I'll probably be starting shortly since I have almost all the pokemon I wanted to catch in Sun

Yeah, I just got to make sure to bring Type Null along, since then all of the walking with make use out of something, since it'll raise its happiness.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

@Zoroarking fc is 1719-3313-7896

Names are not needed for FC sharing, they're just there as a placeholder until the other player adds you
Also, I'm playing with a female character named Claire, telling this in advance due to how my last trade went lol

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Mareanie can only be summoned by Corsola ironically.

I know, but my question was if you could get rippling water by using a repel.
Poor Corsola, they try to get help, only to accidentally get the thing that endangered it's species

Dude, I wanna use 2, one is Merciless, the other Regenerator. Something with Regenerator doesn't deserve defence stats that good

Time for my 7th Pokemon Sun update. Oh man was this certain encounter awesome!

Spoiler: S/M Gameplay/Plot spoilers

Current team:

Azura: Level 40

Toucan Sam: Level 38

Puka: Level 38

Selkie: Level 38

Mata Hari: Level 38

Urlacher: Level 38​

So one thing I forgot to mention from yesterday is that Toucan Sam contracted the Pokerus! I had to spend some time running around the tall grass in Male Garden so that I could spread it to my other team members. I also spread the Pokerus to five other Pokemon (Ash Greninja among them) and put them in the PC so that I have Pokemon to use when I need to EV train. Pretty happy that I got the Pokerus this early into the game.

So now it was time to tackle Acerola's Ghost Trial. Navigating through the supermarket was pretty easy. All I had to do was stop by the register, then the cart, then the Poke dolls, and I was all set. The Ghastly. Haunter, and Gengar were no trouble either. Selkie swept them all with Bite.

Now came Totem Mimikkyu. My strategy going into was to use Toucan Sam: It knew Steel-Wing and held the Steelium-Z to make use of that Steel-type Z move. I knew Mimikkyu had Disguise, so I planned on doing a normal Steel Wing to bring the ability out, then follow up with the Z-move the following turn to finish it in one blow while not worrying about the Ally Pokemon because they probably didn't have any attacks that could hit Toucannon other than status conditions.

But then it turned out Totem Mimikkyu hits way too hard with Play Rough. On the first turn, it attacked first and brought Toucan Sam down to a little more than half left, meaning there was no way I was going to pull off the Steel-type Z-move. Toucan Sam did get the Steel Wing to deactivate the Disguise though.

I had to switch into Azura to handle the rest. She dodged the next Play Rough, as well as Ally Haunter's attack. Azura got an Oceanic Operetta to lower Totem Mimikkyu's HP to the red portion. Following that, I had to heal her after she fell asleep from Hypnosis and took some damage from Play Rough. Then Haunter got lucky with the paralysis via Lick. Fortunately for me, Primarina didn't get paralyzed as she finished the Totem Mimikkyu with an Aqua Jet. I then let Selkie handle the Haunter, and the battle was over. Overall, it was an interesting Totem battle. I got the Ghostium-Z following.

Also, Acerola appreciation post because she needs more spotlight:

Seriously, Acerola is a precious cinnamon roll that MUST be protected. Her facial expressions are adorable! Also helps that she's an experienced Pokemon Trainer who is a descendant of the Alola royal family.

I went back to the supermarket to grind up my Pokemon for a bit and catch some Wild Pokemon. My fifth wild encounter there was none other than Mimikkyu, who is normally really rare here, and I caught it with a Quick Ball. Nice!

Now we had to fight Plumeria. It was almost a repeat of her fight from last time. Her Golbat outsped Alola Raichu and got lucky with Confuse Rays and Poison-hax from Poison Fangs pretty often. Her newly evolved Salazzle was much easier to deal with. One Oceanic Operetta and it was finished.

We were then instructed to head to Po Town to fetch the stolen Yangoose, but we need to navigate through the rocks-in-the-water Route 15 first. To do so, we needed to talk to some guy "wearing a kimono" to get the Sharpedo Poke Ride pager.

I head to the beach, and...

"OH MY GOODNESS IS THAT WHO I THINK IT IS?"

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

"It's my favorite Unova Elite Four member! Holy cow, I can't believe he's the one that will give me the Sharpedo-"

"Whoa, what?"

"So whether or not I get that Sharpedo Poke Ride pager will be decided by a coin flip? Oh God. What happens if I lose? Will I put into a tough battle to fight for it?" Oh man, which one should I go with?"

"Let's go heads!"

*Epic cutscene plays of Grimsely flipping the coin into the air. He catches it when it lands on his arm and then he gives this intense stare."

"Geez dude, my heart is pounding! Will you tell me now?"

*Shot now pans over to the player character just staring at Grimsley. My eyes become the size of golf balls.*

*Shot pans back to Grimsley as we now see only his mouth. I'm about to have a heart attack at this point.*

*Grimsley smirks*

"Holy cow, I can't believe I actually got lucky!"

So he gives me the Sharpedo Poke Rider pager, and no battle ensues. Man, that entire scene was nerve-wracking yet awesome at the same time. The Colress scene from earlier was cool and all, but it doesn't compare to an epic scene of Grimsley determining whether or not you get the Sharpedo Poke Rider pager based on a coin flip!

But I gotta say, poor guy looks like he's been really unlucky with his gambling habit lately, because he looks pretty worn out.

He's still philosophical just like in generation 5 though (which is cool because this guy had some great quotes to live by):

I tried the Sharpedo Ride for a bit, and its pretty nice. Shapedo moves so fast!

Time to explore the rest of Route 15!

Why use two though? If you want another Water Pokemon, just use Wishiwashi or Golisopod

Im Ja'far. should I put it on GTS or..? I rarely trade pff

No no, just go online in the Festival Plaza and I'll send you a Link Trade request

 

[Champ Gold]

All things considered. It's still super fun. Who would you play?

I play Little Mac in Smash


Who you think? The character with the best theme and the only reason I'll play SFV

Spoiler

Also was my main in SFIV

I thought it was common knowledge that once something appears on the internet, it'll NEVER go away

I think a it's more of NoA and they'll never succeed since unless they get money and commission from it, it's free game. They are going after the ones with Patreon

NoJ ironically gave up and just said whatever

 

[FalKoopa]

I want to see them try and fail.

OOOOH
See, I was talking about competitive battling, not single player. I already thought of my team. The Munchlax, Incineroar, Golisopod, Tsarina, Mimikyu and Minior

 

[Yomi's Biggest Fan]

I can't wait to see this. Calling it right now, Goku's going to go SSJB just to keep up. I mean this is the Anime Queen of Toon Gags he's fighting here.

Thinking about what I just said though....Superman vs. Bugs Bunny, anyone?

Bugs stomps because he has the power of plot manipulation on his side.

Agreed, this would be interesting.

 

[praline]

Oh thank the gods I beat Mimikyu!

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

No no, just go online in the Festival Plaza and I'll send you a Link Trade request

Lol of course its named that xD

 

[Champ Gold]

Aside from Balrog, any others?

Probably Nash or Chun-Li

Maybe but all I know is I wanna play Balrog and I hope they bring back Sakura and Sean

Sun update:

Spoiler: Contains Heavy Plot Spoilers

Team:
Coo the Decidueye
Pancakes the Raichu
Mr. Krabs the Crabominable
Spot the Lycanroc
Vastra the Salazzle
Greg the Golisopod
After Lusamine disappeared to Ultra Space, I went to Poni Island and fought Hapu, and she actually the toughest Kahuna I faced.
That Flygon sure gave my team some trouble.
After that, Lillie and I summoned Solgaleo (Or more accuratly, evolved Nebby into one) and went to Ultra Space, where I fought Lusamine a second time. Battle went simillarly to the first one: Clefable was the only one that really gave me any real trouble, but the rest were pretty easy.
Afterwards, I caught Solgaleo, and nicknamed it Nebby because I have alot of respect towards Lillie. She actually became one of my favorite characters in the entire series.
Then Nanu appeared out of nowhere and conviniently took me to Mt. Lanakilla, where I battled both Gladion and Hau, both of which are great rivals imo.
I want to do some grinding before the Pokemon league, since I know what the Champion's highest level Pokemon is (as well as their identity), though I don't need to grind too much.
I'm so close to finish the main story and I've only been playing it for, what is it, 4 days? Man, I must be really good in Pokemon games.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Oh thank the gods I beat Mimikyu!

You monster! You just beat up a poor, lonely person who's only wish was to have a friend!

 

[praline]

Is that the ONLY way to get it?

I want to use it in my moon version, which I'll probably be starting shortly since I have almost all the pokemon I wanted to catch in Sun

Yes that's the only way.

 

[FalKoopa]

Oh thank the gods I beat Mimikyu!

Is he tough?

You monster! You just beat up a poor, lonely person who's only wish was to have a friend!

I keep confusing you for @Soul.

 

[Deleted member]

Lol of course its named that xD

Thanks for the Red Nectar, now my Oricorio can dance to its fullest
And the Spheal who didn't register in my pokedex even though I didn't have one before too

OOOOH
See, I was talking about competitive battling, not single player. I already thought of my team. The Munchlax, Incineroar, Golisopod, Tsarina, Mimikyu and Minior

Speaking of Minior, I don't think I'll be able to catch one and a Ditto to breed in time for tomorrow
I still don't even know where they are
Though I'll try to breed them as soon as possible

 

[AwesomeAussie27]

I want to see them try and fail.

You seem to be hiding something.

The smile on that purple haired girl is enough to tell me something's not right.

 

[praline]

Is he tough?


I keep confusing you for @Soul.

It was. First time it wiped my team. I only won this time cause I had Sandshrew to give is a z move steel attack.

 

[Kurri ★]

Symmetra changes are live on PTR and they are ****ing insane. Especially that second ulti, the radius on that is immense

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Thanks for the Red Nectar, now my Oricorio can dance to its fullest

I keep confusing you for @Soul.
