Did they do bug/water justice /vp/?
>>29946893
Yes. Finally
Araquanid saved the type combo
>>29946893
Yes, Golisopod looks to be a great mon, and Araquanid is looking decent ever since the secondary effect of Water Bubble was discovered.
>>29946893
Us Bugbros always win.
At what point would you say a Pokémon game's story "ends"? Like at what point does the game just become just an open post-game?
>Generation I - Fighting Mewtwo in Cerulean Cave
>Generation II - Beating Red in Mt. Silver
>Emerald - Beating Steven in Meteor Falls
>Generation IV - Defeating Team Galactic in Stark Mountain (fighting Arceus at the Hall of Origin is also acceptable)
Thoughts on the matter?
after the Champion. Johto games are the only exception.
>>29946823
But that bugs me though because I wouldn't count Platinum as having been beaten until you go to Stark Mountain and stop Team Galactic for the final time. That's where the sense of finality hits me (along with Arceus, but that's an optional event). Even in Gen I, I wouldn't count it beaten until you catch Mewtwo. That's THE final challenge in the game outside of the Pokédex.
Generally the story ends with the Champion, which is why the Credits normally roll after beating it.
The whole point of most games are that you want to beat all the Gyms in order to make it to the Pokemon League and become the Champion.
The villain Teams you come across on the way are just the antagonists of the story who attempt to stop your goals indirectly through their actions. For instance, if you never helped Lance beat Team Rocket in GSC then he would have never been at the Pokemon League ready to battle you.
Post game battles/events are an incentive and a reward for beating the game.
Do we actually battle zygarde or do we just obtain him?
you build him.
>>29946782
You have the technology.
>>29946947
But we were handed an audit.

Which guy at the battle tree do I talk to for bottlecaps? I only see 3 people with BP rewards, The record keeper lady, and the lady who takes me up the tree.
Where the fuck do you find Stufful? I'm losing my mind.
anyone know what ver 5 of pokefinder does before I farm 1.5m points? I already have ver 4 and I'm not sure I want to waste my time, I already wasted my time thinking I was going to get a reward for 100 straight wins at battle tree
Is it possible to have a normal time cycle in Moon without adjusting the 3DS clock? Making a last minute call on which version I want.
You canplay sun.
No. I like the reversed time though personally. I like how the game looks more at day, but generally only play at night.
>>29946765
Same here. It's one of those features you never realised you wanted until you hear about it.

Git gud and get a fast Pokémon, nigger.
Failed runs should be removed. Shit isnt fun and serves no purpose other than old RPGs did it and old pokemon did it so now we have to do it.
>>29946706
What? Didn't have that happen to me once.
that's not pikachu
>>29946695
fck u
thats the only real PKMN
its attacks fucked up sliteyed infants in RL. what can ur garchomp do, huh?
also its design is grandios!
>>29946695
Pikachu is the most forced
So supposedly A-Sandshrew and A-Sandslash (As well as Beartic) can have the ability Slush Rush which boosts speed in a hailstorm.
Alolan Sandslash is slow as sin and I don't have high hopes for it but how's Beartic gonna fare with the much needed speed boost?
It probably won't be much better, but Beartic got a really good boost to attack so there's hope for it. I really hope Ice gets some use this gen, they need a buff so bad ;-;
>>29946551
Hail will only be good in the hands of Alolan Ninetales setting Aurora Veil.
Slush Rush seems like a waste since defensive Water and Steel types can handle them much easier. If you want to benefit from Hail, fire off Blizzards, especially with Specs or LO.
>>29946600
Tell me about it; a lot of my favorites are PU/NU ice types...
game freak think they slick... HE dabbin!!!

Fuck off with your ironic funnyniggerspeak
Reminder to Australians, Pokemon Sun and Moon are cheapest at Big W ($52), and JB HI FI and EB Games will match their price.
Post cheaper if you find it (online retailers excluded)
>>29946450
it's $0.00 on 3DSiso right now.
>>29946450
$46* at Big W according to their print catalog.
>>29946505
Very nice, any image of said catalog?
Were mega evolutions a failed idea that will never be touched again?
>>29946438
Megas like Mawile, Beedrill, Pidgeot, Glalie, Kangaskhan, Pinsir, and Lopunny were good, cause it made unusable shitmons actually viable.
Pokemon who were already great but were given megas, like Salamence, Lucario, Garchomp, Blaziken, and Tyrannitar were pretty unnecessary.
And then things like Mega Audino and Camerupt were just wasted potential
It was an interesting concept and I would have liked to see them continue in this gen. Now it's just Z-Attacks which suck in comparison to megas.
>>29946438
I admit I was pretty hype when they got released and some of them are pretty cool.
>>29946535
but like this anon says, they are only cool when they bring shitmons out of obscurity and make them viable, buffing things like lucario or blaziken is retarded.
also giving megas to LEGENDARIES is the most retarded concept GF has ever come to.
we champ and we use dogars.org
>>29946392
let me get that for you jacko

Where can I find it? I am looking for it in the last grass spot before the Pokemon League. Is that the correct place? Is this another Pokemon with a 0,00005% encounter rate?
They're fucking everywhere in the cave system.
I found 5 of them in the ice cave before the Pokemon League.
