Shiny locking legendaries is one of the best decisions they've made in years.
>>31551303
Why? So they can release them as event exclusive Pokemon later?
Fuck you, I want my shiny Nihilego.
>>31551326
Yeah, why even bother shiny-locking the UBs? I can understand if it was something with an overworld model, like Solgaleo/Lunala, for consistency. But they already robbed us of overworld models for UBs because they were lazy.

Game Freak is the George Lucas of game development teams. They coast on the self-propelled success of their main brand name, make games with tons of flaws, shortcomings, glitches and oddities, making them clunky and outdated compared to compared to games from other developers, and people eat them up anyway.
That said, George Lucas absolutely hated and alienated original trilogy fans while Game Freak is sucking up to Gen I fans.

We already know Gamefreak is full of dipshits. Now kindly fuck off to

Is Hau a Dark-type?
What was the point of this form?
>Dude Secret Sword lmao
>>31551136
They needed a mythical with a gimmick, like Shaymin in DPP, Hoopa in XY, and possibly Marshadow in San/Mun.
I hope Marshy can get klutz or truant if that happen.

guys, I don't know if this topic has been discussed already, but I need to share it, I'm really, really mad at GF. So here is the thing: I got a chansey on Blue and taught it tri attack, I was really considering a new fun set to work with it once I transferred her to Sun. I did the transference, trained her, raised her EV's / IV's, she's pretty good. Evolved to Blissey and decided to test a match at the battle spot, free, double, special allowed... I just wanted to have some fun. Guess what? The game didn't allow me to enter the party with blissey because I assume it thinks the tri attack blissey is illegal... I deposited her to check and yes , it was her fault. Now I ask you: what's the point of all this bank/ transporter stuff when legit pokemon with legit moves from its generation cannot be used? I don't know if I'm being noob with this, but I got really upset... has anyone also found any other issue concerning the topic or has any tips to overcome it? Thanks
>>31551040
Gamefreak is pants-on-head retarded and forgot that cross-gen evos exist.
It's not the fact that it knows tri-attack. It's the fact that the legality checker doesn't think a Blissey that originated from Gen 1 should exist. Same goes for all the other cross-gen evos.
We'll just have to wait till they fix all of their mistakes that they made to the online legality checker.
>>31551040
Game Freak didn't think the system through and probably forgot that players will want to evolve their Pokemon after the transporter. Shit sucks because Sun and Moon treats those Pokemon as illegal once they evolve.
>>31551122
>>31551124
yeah I got it... this is too dumb, really, GF sometimes feel like the laziest people in the game industry... but anyway, you're telling me that maybe if I had kept chansey unevolved this wouldn't have happened? I'm twice as mad at my stupidity now... thanks for the explanation anyway
Where do Arora forms go in a living dex?
I would put them directly after their original form, personally.
>>31551025
In the Forms section of Group 2
>>31551025
directly next to their other forms
rattata - alola rattata - raticate - alolan raticate is the pleb option
if you're a patrician yu should do ratatta - raticate - alolan rattata - alolan raticate
also if you don't put Magby, Magmar and Magmortar (for example) in order and separate them by their generations instead get out of my face
ITT: punchable faces

That just makes it an even better punching bag.

The stats are great, but I'm having trouble making proper use of it's abilities.
Sand veil is hamstrung by the fact that it requires sandstorm. Given it's high special attack, it doesn't really need the passive damage. But it also doesn't benefit from the special defense boost. However, shore up benefits greatly from the sandstorm. Yet, I can't help but feel like using a move slot on sandstorm would be suboptimal on a wall breaker, like this.
The problem with water compaction is that most water moves are special attacks, meaning you won't see any benefit until that foe is dealt with. What's more, it relies on your foe to activate, making it unreliable. Then you gotta worry about hazing and phazing just setting you back to zero.
Maybe Palossand is made for doubles? Run it with another sand abuser for sand veil. Water compaction is still tricky, though. Getting hit by super effective attacks in doubles is bad enough. I guess you could tap it with a partner's weak aqua jet or something, and simultaneously use amnesia and weakness policy, but palossand still.needs to survive long enough to do something with all of it. Then there's accelgor with water shuriken, which could activate it 2 or 3 times, but I'm afraid this could deal way too much damage.
Thoughts or opinions?
>>31550923
I use it with Water Compaction, Max HP + Sp. Atk EVs and Assault Vest. Giga Drain, Shadow Ball, Earth Power, and Sludge Bomb is decent coverage. In doubles, I run it with a Comfey for faster healing.
>>31550923
primarina carries aqua jet sometimes for finishing opponents right?
I just got a shiny one a little while ago and he seems really bulky, reminds me of my cradily from ORAS. In both cases, I had them carry the boost move for the lower defense, in his case, I run pallosand with amnesia, although i've heard stockpile can be good too.
I like using trick room because I have so many slow mons from my sun run, and he did pretty damn well against my brother, but then again neither of us play competitively, so make of that what you will.
It might be a little too gimmicky, but maybe a weak water move under sunlight good be a good way to safely activate water compaction, like how some had avalugg run icy wind to activate camerupt's anger point.
>>31551010
>sludge bomb
that sounds really interesting actually, ill have to try that
I don't wanna sound like your average dick from /vp/, but the answer - quite plainly - is that you shouldn't use it.
It's a slow, bulky Pokemon that wants to play the tanking game, but its defensive typing is simply too flawed to take advantage of. Three immunities is really nice, but weaknesses to Water, Grass, Ghost, and Dark are really hard to overcome - especially since a good number of those are Special Attacks, which target its weaker defensive stat. Its offensive stats are nothing to SNEEZE at, but they're not good enough to justify its other problems.
It might be decent in low/mid-tier Singles, but you can forget high-level Singles and Doubles. It just won't work. I'm sorry, anon.
Just hatched a shiny eevee what do you think i should evolve it to?
