Only 3?!

>>29122711
Since there are 4 island Kahunas and she's the second, she should be compared to a 4th gym.
>Ramos' Gogoat is lv34
Oh.

>>29122819
well level doesn´t matter that much. It comes down how the other levels are. And XY had a slow pacing at first and then rushed.

We don´t know how strong her strongest mon is, but she has rockruff night evo

She also have a Tapu, all the kahunas have a tapu r-right?

Well I was wrong on the Kahunas having there own seperate typing or the irl Tomy Z-Ring being tied to the Trial Captain Types lol. But it confirms Hala is a Fighting Type Kahuna and that this chick is supposedly Rock. That makes the type count to 16 so if each one gives you a Z-Crystal than the Poison and Dark you probably get from Team Skull.

Her ace is probably Lycanroc I'm guessing it'll be Level 30-32

And they do, but I don't think it counts towards their pokemon pokemon. It might. Though it's weird cause Hala is a Fighting Master, has Electric/Fairy best buddy legendary. Olivia is a Rock Master, has probably Psychic/Fairy best buddy legendary.

>>29123009
So her team essentially is Nosepass, Lycanroc and the Tapu. Assuming she does have a Tapu.

>>29123009
maybe after the trials/main story you can get them if you defeat them with the tapu.

>>29123062
which one was lyrancroc? She had the rockruff night evo with level 27 afaik. The starter of the PG was 28.

>>29123021
well having trainers who use z-moves against you could be pretty interesting!

>>29123062
She's shown using Lycanroc in the jap trailer. It's lvl 27.

oh goodie difficultyfags are gonna start bitching and moaning again

>>29124029
what's wrong with a game having some difficulty?

>>29124029
i know right
how fucking dare they have on opinion of pokemon that isn't positive
the cheek of it

>>29124073
Pokémon has literally never been difficult in any way and you fags are just gonna use this as ""evidence"" that the games are getting easier, as if they weren't already some of the most braindead games ever

>>29123166
So the next Tapu is Rock/Fairy? Hopefully it's any good since Diancie already excels with that typing

>>29124204
of course it wasn´t difficult. Also Adding more mons to a trainer also doesn´t make it difficult.

But it will look like a challenge. A Kahuna, which should resemble the elite 4 having only 3 mons is kinda..dissapointing.

>>29124445
Why should a Kahuna, who you face at some point in the middle of the game, have a similar team to an Elite Four, who you face at the end? Seriously, I've been saying over and over that they should be compared to Gym Leaders, and this is all the proof I should need.

>>29124445
> which should resemble the elite 4
Aren't they more like gym leaders?

>>29124512
>>29124513
>4 Kahunas, who are the strongest of their Island
>Trial Captains are gymn leaders, because they are strong but not the best

I don´t expect level 50 mons, but they should be at least stronger than average gymn leader. Or having more mons, so it looks like they are stronger.

>>29124029
>>29124204
Alolasomes are the worst

SOmeone has a different opinion and it doesnt matter because whatever happened in X Gen. You not finding the games as getting easier means nothing if other people do

Anyone considered that you'll probably battle her multiple times in the game? Like, story stuff? Yes, they're probably similar to the Elite 4, but because they're not restricted to just being your final challenge, they're probably featured more heavily in the game.

What if the kahuna battles/totem battles are only early game, and the real challenge is with Ultra Beasts and the Teams

>>29124968
Kalos was sperm, Alola is down to chromosomes, how much farther will it go for next gen?

>>29122711
>"Elite 4"
She's the second Gym Leader, not an Elite 4.

>>29124368
Hala had a Crabrawler though.

>>29123009
this. Maybe the tapus are strong and each kahuna has one.

>>29126374
>Maybe the Tapus are strong
of fucking course they are, Tapu Koko is insane already
>boosted electric attacks
>can't be disabled

You might battle them multiple times

>>29126325
>probably 16 Trial captains
> 4 Island with every Island having a Kahuna
>geeez they are the Gymn leaders anon not the E4

>>29126302
Chromosomes contain DNA

>>29126175
I'm actually expecting this desu.

It only takes 1 good Pokemon to make gym leader difficult.

Retards will never understand that.

>>29126492
Whitney and her Miltank hasn't been hard since I was 10 and first play G/S

>>29126492
It only takes one brain to learn type matchups

>>29124368
It's psychic/fairy. Psychic because it's the same as the pink Oricorio.

The Kahuna's specialty doesn't seem to be related to their Tapus, seeing how Hala uses an electric Tapu despite being a fighting-type trainer.

>>29126492
Fuck this miltank meme. I never once had trouble beating it as a kid through out all my crystal and silver play throughs.

>>29126564
>>29126604
Which is exactly why the official games will never be difficult for us again unless they bring back difficulty settings.

>>29126302

(region)twinkles in their father's eye.

>>29126175
Makes sense, the whole Island trials are just suppose to be a coming of age ceremony anyway. Just watch, the whole shit with the Ultra Beasts doesn't come up until after you do the island trials and suddenly the levels of everything jumps up as they start using their serious Pokemon.

>>29122711
>Elite 4.
Leave your old paradigm behind she is like a gym leader faggot.

>>29126604
I think I had a Machop at that point, but she kept fucking using STOMP and flinching him. Then once he was dead, Rollout got going and steam rolled my team.

Round 2 I leveled up one more time and Machop was faster and Low Kick was a one hit kill.

>>29124445

Who said that they were like the Elite 4?

Can GF just put out some information about what we do after the 4th kahuna already so these "kahuna = elite 4" fags can shut the fuck up

>>29126710
>again

>>29126889
Yes, at one point most people found the games difficult due to being children.

>>29126450
>implying the Elite Four, who are fought at the end of the game can be compared to the Kahunas who you fight throughout

>>29126710

>implying that the games weren't hard because you were a child

>>29126547
this desu

>>29126819
>>29126993

look at that you brain-dead faggots>>29126450

they changed the formula, this time you do the trials of the island and then the strongest of the island. Elite 4 are also just the strongest of the region and the kahuna are the strongest persons on each of their respected islands.

>>29126604
Or realizing that the Miltank has no moves that can hit Onix/Geodude for neutral and let them tank with their massive defenses.

>>29126564
>>29126604
>>29126707
You not finding her hard means nothing when 90% of the fanbase does, even as adults.

Even if you found her easy, you can clearly see a lot more was put into her team composition than most other leaders

>>29126710
Replaying the older games now and it's still definitely a tougher experience than the ones now.


I'm not asking for the hardest thing in the world, but it being Gen 4 or 3 tier would be nice is all

>>29122923
Her lycanroc form could depend on which version you're playing, which would be neat

>>29127437

And you think that because the Kahunas are the strongest of their island, that they're supposed to replace the Elite 4 instead of, more reasonably, thinking that their's going to be something equivalent to the E4 towards the end of the story?

>>29127437
But again, the fact that you face them throughout the game makes it unfair to criticize them for having weaker teams than the Elite Four, who you face at the end.
