REMIDER: If you need a rescue, post your region. Due to a few things that make no sense, rescues are region locked. It's shitty, but be sure to mention if you're European or American. If you use the .cia in this post, your region should be listed as American.

I can't speak for playing as her, but as a partner she works solidly. Her defense is a little squishy, like she is in the main series (but it's not much different from Charmander's), but her special attack is good and her useful moves are sprinkled throughout, rather than not getting any at all. Quick Attack at 11 and Flamethrower at 24, and you're pretty much good to go for the most part.

I've seen comparisons say she's a weaker Charmander, but, well, that's why I liked her as a partner instead. Charmander's IQ set is more offensively-geared (stuff like Pierce Hurler and whatnot), and I like that stuff better in my hands rather than the AI's.

Should do. Unlike Rescue Team, Explorers doesn't lock up when your edited characters do animations.

i'm curious though, what about the animations anyways? Do we just run in place when we wake up again?

Yep. The whole running in place thing seems to be what the game does when it can't play an animation.

Lame.

I totally should have looked into this more instead of saying "fuck it, mudkip." It's too late to change, though, but i feel like i really should because Mudkip will be ignored. What do i do? Play through to the very end of the story and do it again in awhile?

Thinking about the starter hacking stuff makes me think i should give up this run and start anew. I have fast forwards anyways, and i have no qualms with Wonder Mailing myself those IQ Boosters/Miracle Chests again since I deserve them.

What do you guys think? End this run prematurely? I want to play through all the postgame stuff with my starters, which i feel like i can't do with Mudkip because there's just other things i could be using in it.

Mewtwo requires 2 trips. Deoxys has a -10% recruit rate. With a friend bow that goes up to 0%, and taking into account level 90+, you'll have about a 24-25% chance of recruiting it.

Mega Dungeons when?
Can connect with a team up to 4 players, tackling mega dungeons, 4 times the size of a regular dungeon, at the end of the dungeon will be rare items you can't get anywhere else.

Something fun like Spinda cafe should make a return, where you can play mini games to get points to spend on IQ raising items, or perks like that. You get extra points if you play with other people.

Agility is mediocre since 5th gen since the rework to how movement speed interacts with attacks.

Just grab another offensive move to add longevity to your runs.

What's the best way to farm gold in SMD?

Where do I go / what do I do?
>>
>>25742380
Do runs of Super Apple Forest. Fresh apples sell quite high - 100 for regular, 250 for big, and 500 for perfect.

There's often a Kecleon shop on the final floor, so if you're feeling particularly tough you can sell your apples there and then steal them back.
>>
>>25742380
Beats me. Like a lot of things in this game, if you want to find gold, it's random, although past a certain point, I believe it can pop up in any dungeon. I don't think you can use the early dungeons to exploit that, though. I didn't mess around enough with it to be certain, though. I was just using the early dungeons to pass time.

RT's basic, but solid. If you're going into it last it'll definitely feel kind of bare in some ways, since it was the first go at PMD and everything, but I still think it's a lot of fun, and there's plenty of dungeons to explore. Friend areas help the world feel a little more vibrant and populous, too.
>>
IN sky, there's an item named fire veil for moltres that gives it a chance to survive fatal damage with 1 hp. If I had a bag full of them, would they stack?

And so the story ends on a high note. Meanwhile, one Wooper and Mareep team's story is just starting.

>>25746704
If you have two of the same stat upping swap item they don't stack, i'd assume that'd be the same way

Do all Pokemon even out eventually in Sky? Surely there must be some point where Anorith (+1 in 3 stats for a fuckload of levels) gets level ups like Spinarak (+3 in all for roughly 15 levels)
>>
>>25746773
Some just get better levelups, but it might take awhile. Kecleon for example gets +1 to hp and nothing more until level 26 or so, where it gets +20 per levelup to everything
>>
>>25746757
Oooh, are you gonna swap out your team? Why wooper and mareep? Good levels? Discharge? Favorite pokemon? Good exclusive items?

Wooper and Mareep are my favorite unevolved pokemon in the series, I can't play gen 2 without them. Their swap items are good, too.

Wooper's a member of one of the best IQ groups, getting stuff like trap immunity, double hit normal attack, and map revealing. Mareep enjoys +5PP to everything through Multitalent, as well as some other nice skills. There's no other team I'd rather use. Pic related, it's my Wooper on cart, the best lead mon I have that isn't Jirachi.

About 125 or so times two, thanks to Quick Striker

It takes a fuckton of gummis/trips to Sky Peak's Secret Bazaar. It's not even my strongest mon, here's what Jirachi looks like without swap items. Jirachi has eaten literally every single Life Seed/Sitrus Berry in the game that wasn't found in ZIS due to Nature Gifter.

The game just doesn't show them. Mareep has no portrait aside from default, but Wooper has a few due to being in Igglybuff's episode. Obviously not as much as an actual starter, but still.

>>25746418
The gameplay is similar, but except some postgame stuff it's easier. Also the formula is different. If you know about Shiren 3, that's how it's structured. Basically there are many dungeon instead of a main one that you need to complete. You can also take specific missions in these dungeons.
In the postgame you unlock some level 1 dungeon that work like a Shiren or a classic roguelike, but they have no plot.
>>
>>25747520
>In the postgame you unlock some level 1 dungeon that work like a Shiren or a classic roguelike, but they have no plot.
That's fine by me, I usually play things like Angband. Also thanks.
>>
Last question, is there an equivalant to Thick Club for Cubone in this? I wanna hit like a truck.
>>
>>25747604
If you're playing Rescue Team, no. Power Bands do raise your attack stat, but they're ubiquitous. Even EoS doesn't have an Exclusive Item equivalent just for Cubone, but the Brown Silk item raises Attack by 10 and Defense by 7, which applies for all Ground types in the party.
>>
>>25747604
Best you'll get is the Power Band really. I guess a Munch Belt too, but that drains your hunger. Marowak's swap item eliminates Grass weakness, making those moves HEAL you. It works for Cubone as well. lower tier.

If you can get ahold of some Brown Silk which is on 10f of zero isle north, needs a key, more a postgame item just having it around boosts your attack
>>
>>25747640
>>25747647
Alright then. Time to tank meanwhile.
>>
>>25747683
I should mention something about Mareep. Ampharos's swap item, the Sacred Scarf, gives the Mareep family no weakness, making Ground attacks heal it. So instead of killing your friend with earthquake, you're now healing them every time

I can't get over how much I enjoy this game.

Picked some scrub starters cause muh favorites and then decide to take on some bulletin missions. Few hours later, I lose to a monster house after expending all my orbs on one of those huge rooms that just happened to have a ton of mons in it. That's okay though at least I keep my exp.

Why is speed increasing moves important in PMD?
>>
>>25749341
in everything except gates it allows you to attack multiple times in one turn

if i remember correctly, super allows 1 extra attack, and rbtds allow up to 3 extra attacks

i kinda forget if that's right though, someone will have to confirm or deny
>>
>>25749341
Unlike in the main series, every Pokemon moves at the same time. Boosting speed gives you extra moves.
>>
In SMD, what level do you need to be before pokemon stop going on break?

I was under the impression that pokemon equal to or lower in level to you wouldn't go on break, but I just had a level 30 mon (my main is level 31, partner is 28) go on break. This is really frustrating since literally the expedition before that I spent pumping drugs into that guy to make him a monster. This isn't the first time he's done it either, he's been going on break after every time I use him.

What gives? Is it because my partner was 28, or will they just continue to go on break forever?
>>
>>25749573
i think it's just random

unfortunately

PMD games should have multiple save slots. Even just two would be great. I kind of see the reasoning behind single saves in the mainline games, but why these? I want to play the story in Super again and try to get a better understanding of some of the exposition dumps (because everything became a bit of a blur after the story and postgame re uniting). I don't have the heart to delete my save, even if I were to pick the same starters. Not to mention losing my postgame progress.

Which reminds me, you unlock the jukebox songs by leveling up your rank, right? How many levels could there possibly be after Gold? I have so many songs to unlock still.
>>
>>25749589
Make a backup of your save using svdt, savedatafiler or jk's.

>>25749294

>>25749573
They'll never stop going on breaks completely, but as your level goes up compared to theirs they'll do it less often.

Odds are you'd miss at least one or two, and one's enough to do it.
>>
>>25749589
this is why i think they need new game plus in pmd

they could use that opportunity to make it really tough as well


anyway you start getting 3 songs at once for a bit, i forget what the song unlock progression was
>>
Super is going to be my first PMD game, does my starter make any huge difference or should I just pick my favorite?

NG+ Would be fun, or just a barebones 'story' to push some along to 100% completion. Don't get me wrong, SMD's gameplay is a lot of fun and I love the Emeras, but it's a little difficult to find the drive sometimes. All I want is some partner dialogue everyday or something. Does anything happen if you 100% the game in SMD? That's your partner's dream after all.

Pick your favorite. SMD was my first too (since Red Rescue that is), so when I started I tried to keep in mind which Pokemon wouldn't be available in the previous entries in case I wanted to go back and play them after SMD (Which I do now), so I tried to avoid picking Gen1-4 starters.

Ended up falling in love with my partner perhaps too much. I had never even used fennekin before, and probably won't use them in any mainline games, but they're my favorite now.
>>
>>25749795
what i want in EVERY game with a sort of partner is context sensitive conversation bits

like seriously, hire 2 guys to just flesh out the partner in every room they can think of, make like 5 misc dialogues per area/story point / game state/ whatever, this should be standard for every game, it adds so much to the character
>>
>>25749795
>>25749910
oh man i just thought of something

after 365 dungeon runs, the partner could say "you know this all started a year ago, how crazy!" or something, and every 365 the partner could wake you up and say something sweet like "another year and still helping those in need" or some shit, i dunno
>>
Why are MD games more fun than mainline games?

This is not a bad idea at all. Part of the reason I can't get into postgame is the lack of flavorful banter I became accustomed to in the main story.
>>
Cubone/Mareep guy, does your starters ever evolve? I'm guessing I need to clear the game first or something.
>>
>>25749948
double the abilities
>>
>>25749948
For me it's a few things. The freedom in team creation is something i love, because pokemon that are bad in the main games can finally shine here.

That and the challenge they pose. Apart from a few points, the main games feel too easy, and even those spots you can just spam potions if you're bad enough. The MD games aren't afraid to have hard spots.
>>
>>25749948
Infinite replayability, all Pokemon are viable, better story, better music, better characters, better atmosphere.
>>
>>25749978
You can't evolve your starters until you've finished the postgame story
>>
>>25750012
>all Pokemon are viable
I wouldn't go that far. At least in Explorers, even some pokemon are objectively bad. All the base forms of the early route bugs like Caterpie, Magikarp, and anything with a hindering ability, especially Shuckle/Lopunny
>>
>>25750034
Barring the cocoon bugs, Magikarp and Wobbuffet, any Pokemon can be good. The only thing they're hindered by is moves learned and Gluttony.

An actual interesting story pushing you along, emphasis on YOU, because it's a very engaging game-and-player relationship, at least in my opinion. I mean, plenty of games have sad endings, but few are as truly effective as the MD games (In my case, none have been as effective in MD) because of how much of an effort there is to develop one solid relationship between YOU and your partner throughout the whole story, as opposed to developing a relationship between Cloud and his entire party (as a random, well enough known example) at different intervals because there are always people coming and going.

Also 10/10 soundtracks that are way more diverse than not only Pokemon but a lot of games.
Also not fall-asleep-easy.
Also a lot more cute and charming.
Also pic related.
>>
>>25750034
I mean, pumping their stats to 255 each (and presumably 999 for HP) would pretty much make any Pokemon viable.
>>
Wanting to raise multiple pokemon as viable teammates is hell on earth.

gotta get a viable water and fire type somehow
>>
>>25750079
Even with 255 in all stats, Gluttony doubles hunger drain. Fully exploring a floor means you lose 20+ hunger a floor, even on short ones
>>
>>25750105
That and well, if you can get a mon to 255, why the hell would you pick something with an ability as bad as "no hold items"
>>
Does Gluttony at least have any benefit?
>>
>>25750099
the home-levelling in gates was absolute genius

i keep saying this, but readd at-home leveling and make iq abilities unlock based on level, and the team building aspect of the game is fixed, basically

you just have to use them, or your good guys or a while, and they become better anyway, rather than force feeding them metric tons of candy to make them smarter and having to bring them along and protect them so they get a bit of EXP
>>
>>25750130
In SMD i think it restores some HP when you eat anything, and I think it doesn't drain hunger there too. In Explorers it's entirely hindering, with no benefit. If you REALLY wanted to use Shuckle, make it a partner.
>>
>>25750105
Tight Belt?
>>25750116
literally only lopunny

>>25750130

All of this so much. Like, the developers seriously couldn't write a pot of dialogue to draw from randomly everyday instead of "It's a great day for an expedition!" every single day?
I nearly shit my pants in surprise when I accidentally tapped A next to my partner in a dungeon and they said "I can still take a bit more!" I hadn't heard that one before.

>>25749941
>You wake up, your partner isn't there
>They walk in, even more chipper than usual
>"Hey Anon, you know what today is?"
>no
>"It's the one year anniversary since we became friends!"
>(How did they remember that?)
>"...Um, I actually wrote down the date because you were my first true friend, so I was real happy at the time."
>"I asked Swirlix if he would make a cake for the occasion... I was just going to ask if you wanted chocolate or vanilla frosting. Don't worry, I'm not picky!"

MD is probably the only game that can bring out the inner roleplaying autist in me. Don't really care though.

That doesn't make anything impossible. It requires more reverse engineering at worst.

>>25750134
I feel like you could even keep the gummis this way, too. Just make them be like the cookies and stuff from SMD, but make it so that if the type matches, there's a higher chance of raising multiple stats. If you made the vitamin drinks rarer and more valuable in the process, you could collect gummis and slowly beef up, while also allowing for no-gummi runs.
