Lucky (Gastrodon) easily cleared his non electric mons.

Pivoting with Lucky and Koikoikoi (Gyrados) to weaken Luxray till I felt safe enough to attack.

My phone is broken so what I meant was half valkner team is electric

Gastrodon is water/ground type, is only weak to grass (x4) and inmune to electric, and also effective against it. Gastrodon with any ground attack can easily rip any electric team.

i love him

exactly, although the physical attacks were doing too much for safety, so had to intimidate Luxray a bit with pivots

Wise, since Gyarados, Bibarel and Manaphy aren't that bulky and probably needed more support.

Funny how Bidoof is a living joke while Bibarel is a ****ing beast. Adamant + Simple + Sword Dance = 1 hit KO everything. And it can even learn Aqua Jet. Nasty!

SO about evolutions and how they work in PLA

- - -

EmeraldZoroark wants to see this spoiler (shinyyyyy)



new evolutions and hisuian forms (updating them when we get them)

ok there is way too much for me to post

ball guy is dumping them all

show him the love

my thoughts on shiny zoroark

Typhlosion is good ok! The earlier model just didnt have his particle effects on

WARNING SPOILERS

Damn this would be GOTY in.... 2001

So what's everyone's starter choices for Legends?
I was originally going to pick Rowlet because it has my favourite final evolution out of the three and because I picked the water-type in Shield and the fire-type in Shining Pearl. But after seeing the leaks, I think I'm now leaning more towards Cyndaquil.

Oshawott, no doubt. Samurott was already my favourite of the three choices, and now that Decidueye and Typhlosion look horrendous, while Samurott has just basically the same design but including a bit of an eeriee and darker feeling to it, I don't find myself even thinking about it.

The squad Im rolling with when I get it, will do Oshawott and Cyndaquil for challenge runs

Going Rowlett

Speaking of shinies anyone else see that petty drama where someone faked his double shiny?

no but that sounds really sad even by current pokemon fanbase standards

I somehow became part of the twitch shiny hunting community and basically this dude managed to get a shiny starly and turtwig in the same battle. This clip blew up and then some other dude like 2 days after had the same thing happen and he posted it to YouTube.
Of course it would be very weird for this 1/1000000000 thing to happen again in the same week and the guy who faked it had a switch that only had 3 pokemon games on it. and it was on airplane mode which is very weird for a normal switch to have. Then the guy just said he faked it for clout lol.

The more I hear about Legends the better it sounds


Meanwhile that one furry poketuber nobody likes is having a fit over everything in the game


I may just make an australian eshop account just to get the game early, that's how exciting PLA is.

that guy is a CCP shill who probably ****s dogs we don't need to give him attention

Absolutely agree with you there. I hope everyone has a blast playing the new game!

woah game that I will not buy but I still have to complain about is getting praise and high score reviews

I got my copy a day early thanks to ShopTo. I decided on Rowlet as my starter as I want Hisuian Growlithe on my team. So far, I'm really enjoying this game and the research tasks in the pokedex gives me more motivation for catching and fighting pokemon which makes it more fun.

after 2 hours i really like it. love how they encourage catching in this game and missions are super fun to do. only problem is that the switch is a weak console so sometimes the game lags super hard or my joycons just not work

Current team

i probably found a shiny but didnt see it lol

Yep can confirm found and caught murkrow. Now do I tell 12 year old me not to shiny hunt it at full odds

My dream team is going to be probably Samurott, Zoroark (shiny female), Gliscor, Torterra, Electrode and Arcanine.

Question: did they keep abilities, natures, EVs and all that stuff or did they simplified it all?

Abilities? no

Natures? yes

EVs and IVs? ehhhh, kinda? not really? you give pokemon items to increase their effort level and that increases stats
