Questions that don't deserve their own thread

How do I start the Pyukumuku chucking job?

what are R,B,Y,G, shards used for this gen

>>30161790
Elekids on Route 12 have a chance to call Chansey.

If you talk to everyone on the beach you'll find the one that gives you the quest eventually.

Isn't there someone that will trade you a Happiny?

OH SHIT I FOUND A BELDUM

>>30162115
Shit like this is why im trying to complete the dex asap. So i can breed shit for these cucks.

Where's a good place to grind that isn't the elite 4?

Where do i find johto balls?

I finally got all 100 cells. What build is considered best for swarm change Zygarde? I'm heard a coil set with Thousand Arrows is king but I don't know the details.

>>30162115
I just got one traded from a NPC at some food place in the first town on the 3rd island for a Pancham

Should I replace something on my team for Beldum?
Dartrix,Staryu,Misdreavus,Shelgon,Magneton,Grimer

What are all the trainers you can face in title defense?

Regarding SOS chaining:

Can you knock out the original Pokemon to continue the chain, and about how long do you need to chain before you start getting hidden abilities and multiple perfect IVs?

>>30162187
At some point in the game you meet an old man with a wicked mullet. After that he can be found in random spots and he will give you a johto ball when you talk to him.

>>30162382
Yes you can knock out the original mon. But I recommend it during the 9th time it calls for help.

Anyone know if Smeargle's Moody activates when it gets called? Don't know if it counts as the end of the turn.

What's the best route to train in? Poni Meadow leveling is getting really slow.

So I turned off exp share so I don't fly through its game too fast as it made ORAS far too easy

Only now I'm at route 3, every wild pokemon is at lvl 12 where my highest lvl is 14. Every wild pokemon calls for fucking help, then when I defeat one the other calls for help and so on and so on

I can't run away because all my pokemon are slow as fuck

Is the game supposed to be this fucking hard?

>Have to do the Battle Tree to get the power items and destiny knot
>Battle Tree requires fully EV and IV trained Pokemon in order to get anywhere
Who designed this?

>>30162341
Help, please.

Will they ever add an option to turn off the trainer models for battles? Double battles are not functional right now.

>>30161790
What is type null?

>>30162579
Yeah, your tears are delicious.

>>30162341
Nah. You already have Shelgon as your slow leveling poke and Beldum takes long to evolve. Unless you mean for competitive in which case idk.

After what trial can i buy adrenaline orbs?
Also what is the rate for SOS call without adrenaline orbs

How does Weather SOS work? I've been chaining Sandiles in Haina Desert for a while and still no Castform or Gabite.

>>30162579
Honestly you are meant to use xp share, dunno why people are weird about it it's not like grinding is hard.

>>30162695
Alright, thanks. How is Metagross competitively right now?

>>30162593

You gotta use Pelega for e.v training the mons you use to establish yourselves.

>>30162579
>Is the game supposed to be so hard when I choose to make it harder?

Uhh.. Yeah? I mean, the game is 'supposed' to be played with EXP share on, and by turning it off you're committing yourself to a shitload of grinding. The difficulty doesn't increase, it's literally just a grind to get your pokemon up to snuff.

>>30162579
Paralyzed pokemon can't call for help.

WHERE THE FUG DO I GET MORE BEANS

>>30162812
The cafe in the pokemon center

is this list missing any pokemon that you can only get a limited number of:

1; cosmog, box legend, tapu x4, nihilego, xurkitree, guzzlord, necromza, zygarde (which can disassemble and reassemble for new nature)

2; buzzwole OR celesteela

4; kartana OR pheromosa

>>30161790
Dunno if anyone would know, but caught my xurkitree.

One is bold. The other is mild.
Bold: HP: 203, Attack: 124: defense: 113 SP.attack: 250, SP. defense: 117, speed: 127

Mild: HP: 203, Attack: 140, defense: 100, SP.attack: 266, SP.defense: 117, speed: 133

Which should I keep?

>>30161790
whats the best method to ev train now? wanna ask you guys before i use google and see a bunch of bullshit methods

>>30162726
>I've been chaining Sandiles in Haina Desert for a while and still no Castform or Gabite.
You need weather going on during the battle for that to happen (sandstorm in this case) and the chance for one of them to be called is really low so good luck. Whoever designed Weather S.O.S is one sadistic fucker.

How do I unlock the long and tousled hairstyle for males?

Poké Pelago

What the hell do SOS slots mean

>>30162812

It was probably the same guy that thought Beldum should have a catch rate of 3.

So what exactly happens to hyper trained Pokemon when you put them in a PC box or scale their level down for wifi, etc.?

>>30162968
>catch rate of 3
which is the rate of most legends what the fuck

>>30163025
the same thing that happens to other pokemon.

>>30162973
Only options, spent 3 hours trying to get something better and settled for that.

>>30163070
Mega Metagross too stronk

Where can I dye my clothes?

>>30163076
So do their stats get recalculated according to the shit IVs and make hyper training pointless?

>>30163092
how many mega stones are available in S/M?

>>30163085
you could catch/breed synchronize mons first

>>30162768
I suppose so but I don't really want to wait 62+ hours.

>>30162884
Wimpod

Are multibattle partners locked into teams for the tree?

I recruited Cythia and shes only using a spiritomb and lucario, no Garchomp or anything

>>30163126
How do you even come up with this conclusion?

>>30163122
Festival Plaza
Pray to get the color you want. Also, Sun only gets warm colors and Moon only cool colors. You'll have to get the dye stalls from other players if your version doesn't have the color you want.

I was told I need to finish the Alola dex to get the shiny charm. Do I need to catch all of them, or just see all of them?

what is the best nature for all the limited pokemon? I figure since Hyper Training is a thing it's a good idea to get quality legendaries for once

>finally get a Gabite
>kills itself with Take Down

>>30163179
Have you ever tried hacking a Pokemon's stats in older games? If the IVs and/or base stats didn't match up, they'd be recalculated when they hit the PC box or if their level was scaled up/down.

Since Hyper Training doesn't touch IVs, it had me wondering.

>>30163188
Are Dye Stalls like the other shops that appear?

How do I get a Meadow Plate? I don't know where Team Skull took the stolen stuff.

>>30163138
Welp, I'll do that with UB-04 and UB-05. Too late for UB-03.

So, between those two can someone tell me which they think is better? 13 less defense wouldn't mean much right?

>>30163127
Gengarite 64BP
Scizorite 64BP
Pinsirite 64BP
Aerodactylite 64BP
Lucarionite 64BP
Kangaskhanite 64BP
Gyaradosite 64BP
Absolite 64BP
Alakazite 64BP
Garchompite 64BP
Sablenite 64BP
Metagrossite 64BP
Sharpedonite 64BP
Slowbronite 64BP
Glalitite 64BP
Salamencite 64BP

There's also Blastoisinite, Charizardite X/Y, and Venusaurite you get from Red, you also get a free Alakazite when you beat Sinio. For the other ones have fun grinding your fucking eyes out at the Battle Tree.

>>30163286
Yeah. In additon, 1 star dye stalls only make pastel colors.
3 star make pastel and dark.
5 star make pastel, dark, and normal.

>>30163150

Get it to level 3 and use beans.

Is performance any better on the New 3DS?

Do you need cosmog, cosmeon, the UBs, or the other box legend to complete the Alolan dex?

>>30163356
How do I level shops up? Same way as Join Avenue?

>>30163349
why the fuck are there missing ones

why did catching Lunala and boxing it tell me please collect the poke ball?

Does syncronize work on Zygarde? I finally picked up all the cells. Does a 4 HP/252 attack/252 speed DD set work well enough with the cell swarm ability?

>>30163349
>buff mega beedrill a ton so lots of people are excited to use it
>not even in the base game
excellent work gamefreak

>>30163402
HAHAHAHA
I'm sorry. You can't level them up in this game. Just pray Sophocles gives you what you want or buy them from visitors. It costs 1500 FC to get a 5 star.

Anyone know a good way to level up besides poke pelago?

>>30163414
Those Pokemon aren't found in Alola.

>>30163356
Can you tell me what berries are needed to dye something dark red, or normal red?

I need to use my fields for something, and grinding for dyes sounds like the best course of action since I breed fresh pokemon before ev training.

>>30163466

then how the fuck are we supposed to obtain them
there's no electric megas

>>30163414
Stars bait probably, as if the possible new Lycanroc form wasn't enough

When feeding Beans to Pokemon, how do I scroll to the patterned and rainbow ones on the far right?

Is anyone else having problem with typing names on o3DS? Every time I press something it hits either to the left or below. Don't know if there's a way to fix this or if I'll have to put up with delete always hitting enter and all Es being Ws.

Works fine playing DS games or XY so I don't think it's the touch screen itself.

>>30163457
>buffed mega beedrill
Where are the proofs?

>>30163480
Then Garchomp shouldn't be there because GABITE IS SO MOTHERFUCKING RARE IT PRACTICALLY DOESN'T EXIST

>>30163606
they changed how turn order is decided so now its increased Speed is used on turn 1

Destiny knot can be found on Wild Meowth I'm pretty sure

>>30163606
When you Mega evolve you get the speed increase on your turn which means Megadrill doesn't have to run Protect anymore. Plus Leech Life and Fell Stinger got a massive boost in power, best part is he gets STAB off of those with the already huge attack stat.

>>30163176
anyone?

>>30163659
This explains it.

>>30163719
I also appreciate your input.

>>30162593
Destiny Knot can apparently be obtained via the pickup ability. Just toss a pickup mon in your party while hatching eggs or something.

>>30162884
You catch two Xurkitrees actually.

Is it ok to ask non-SM questions?

If yes: I want to play gen 4 and 5 games since I never played them before. Does Platinum make Diamond and Pearl obsolete? and if I get Black should I get Black 2 or White 2?

If I just play the game normally am I wasting my EV stats by killing random shit? Do I literally need to EV train starting at level 1 to do it properly?

Also, is there no way to breed a hidden ability unless the mother has it already? Fuck is Regenerator even worth it on Toxapex?

>>30163819
Yes

And go with whatever is the sequel to what you first played. That just makes sense. Black to Black 2 or White to White 2.

>>30163819
Play platinum and then BW and BW2 together

how the fuck do you get the pokemon from isla abeens to join you?

>>30163858
Oh, I read that wrong. Yeah do what >>30163850 said. You get the opposite box in BW2 than the one you get in the original BW, anyway. So if you played Black and Black 2 you'd get Reshiram in the first one and Zekrom in the second.

>>30163819
Yes. Platinum and the V sequels improve everything over the first games. Platinum can be played on its own, but you should play two games from V for the full experience. Note that if you play Black or White, you should play the sequel of the same color (If you played Black, then follow with Black 2).

>>30163849
If you have no intention to take your team from your first playthrough online, then unoptimized EVs/IVs/natures really doesn't matter. That shit only matters for anything you intend to use against real people.

>>30163152
What the fuck was Wimpod's deal? I failed to catch it twice and then it just disappeared forever. I had to get a friend to trade me one, and he managed to get a Quick Ball to work on it.

>>30163868
Wait til the next day and put Pokebeans in the crate

can you breed ash grenigga?

Can you breed a female Salandit? I've been trying forever and all male.

>>30163971
also can it have different abilities?

In PKhex, I clicked the shiny star. Now why the fuck won't it let me click it again to turn it off? Stupid application.

Ok so why did I get the moon flute while playing Pokémon sun is it because I was playing during the night time WTF I'm confused serebii says their version exclusive and google ain't helping

Can someone explain hypertraining to me? I read it's superficial and doesn't really change your stats. Does it actually make your mons stronger in battle or not?

>>30163947
I don't know but I can't catch any in my game anymore so that's fun.

>>30164069
i can get you a shiny golisopod. want it? ;)

Are there any pokemon in alola that can learn false swipe and heal pulse besides Smeargle?

>>30164150
She does know.

Otherwise she's technically lusting for another dude behind her husbands back.

But, you clearly see the game showing she knows it's him at the end

>>30164154

Why is chaining so awful

>>30162028
You can trade 30 of them for a bottle cap at the Festival Plaza in postgame. I haven't done it yet, but I think it's supposed to be a gold cap. Could be wrong.

>>30162579
Turning off the EXP Share is for when you want a challenge or to grind forever for no reason. Clearly you want neither. Turn the EXP Share back on.

>>30164172
Pretty sure Scyther can also learn Heal Pulse and I know the fucker can learn False Swipe, but he's rare as shit and only available on the fourth island.

Allegedly Riolu can be found somewhere, but I've never seen evidence of this. Admittedly haven't done much poking around on that either, so take that as you will. I know Lucario can learn Heal Pulse but I'm not sure if he can learn False Swipe.

>>30164273
>Scyther
>Heal Pulse

Dude......

I rare candied my abra from 15 to 16 and it never learned confusion. Do I just have to level my kadabra to 21 for psybeam?

Should I replace Dhelmise with Mimikyu?

Abra's ability to learn confusion is glitched. Get somebody to teach it psychic.

>>30164674
electric to hit waters then

>>30163587
Best way I found is to turn your 3DS sideways so that the Beans icon is now to the top right corner, and then put your stylus on the bottom right corner and scroll up.

wait, so that pkhex glitch where you go invisible is temporary or permanent?

>>30164712
That's what I figured, wasn't sure if Ground could be useful for a new highly used mon. Thought I'd ask,

>>30164767
ground is basically only there to hit rock types and waters are more common

Did Cradily get anything cool this gen or will we have to wait till we can transfer Pokemon to find out?

>>30163587
You're best off keeping all your regular beans (and maybe even patterned beans too) in use, and just use the premium beans in the Refresh thing. The rainbow beans will max your pokemon's affinity for you VERY fast.

>>30163587
Put it right underneath the listing of them and scroll sideways, don't put it on the beans.

My team is Decidueye, Greninja, Alolan Raichu, Snorlax, Passimian, and Alolan Marowak. All roughly level 55. Think I'll be good for the Elite Four and the Champion or should I switch somebody out and level up a new Pokemon to give me more balance. Only totem challenge that gave me trouble was Mimikyu.

Why can't island scan mons have their HA?

>>30164318

>>30164871
Swap out Marowak for the box legend and you're good. I can't tell you why, but you'll thank me later.

Wondering if I could cheese out Cuckui's Incineroar with Toxapex

I've done the entire Ultra Beast questline, but when I go to Ten Carat Hill, Necozma isnt here. How can I battle with him?

Is there some faster way to level up the Poke Finder? Taking 4000-5000 point photos seems like it would take hours to reach 1.5 mil.

I'm kind of against using legendaries to beat the game, but the way the story progressed sort of justified it so I'll try it. I kind of just want to get this done and jump to trying to catch all the wild Pokemon since that's what I have the most fun doing.

How do I battle Red and Blue and the other celebs? What do they give out?

Do I need to have a Bounsweet with Oblivious to get a Queenly Majesty Tsareena?

>>30165455
Queenly Majesty is her default ability, I believe.

I trust you know that you need the mid-evo to have Stomp before you can evolve it into Tsareena, right?

Can you use a Z-move AND Mega evolution in the same battle? Say I want to mega evolve Alakazam and use Snorlax's z move in the same battle.

>>30165481
Yeah. But it appears Tsareena can have Leaf Guard as well, so I need to find out if I'm gonna get fucked or not breeding these Leaf Guard Bounsweets

So what's the most effective way to go from Adamant Leaf Guard to Adamant Oblivious? Try to breed out the Leaf Guard or try to catch an oblivious and breed in Adamant?

What's a good Nature and moveset for Lunala?

Just started tue UB quest and got to the third one. Not sure if it has been asked before but, when they tell you where to find Nihilengo they give you two locations, I caught one at the tunnel, saved and went on to the second one which I cleared too.

My question is, when they said Nihilengo was at two places, did they mean two different ones but you just need one to complete the mission(on which case, I just lost one) or there was one all along at two possible places?

A pokemon will always have the abilty the parent has in case the poke can have different abilities or the abilty is set at random (except for HA)?

>>30161790
Is there an NPC that remembers what pokemon you used to do the island trials just like with gym leader battles in XY & ORAS?

Basically spam coil and rest+sleep talk for huge attack and defense with full health, then sweep with thousand arrows

Most often max hp and special defense investment to ensure not instantly dying to faster fairy pokemon at full health mid sweep

>>30161790
Curious about time.

I forgot to set my 3DS in accordance to daylight savings time that happened a while ago. If I change it to the proper time, does it come with any adverse effects?

On top of that, is it possible to try and "cheat" Poke Pelago by changing the time? Or do the timers in Poke Pelago all operate independently, like if you set a session for 31 hours then it ticks down a 31 hour clock?

how does the IV judge works? i don't understand it at all

>>30166177

Is there any downside to just wonder trading all the time?

What are all the empty lots/construction sites for? Does anything actually come out of them?

>>30164058
From what I know it does increase your stats. It is superficial in that it does not increase IV's in terms of breeding and hidden power types. So no perfect IV dittos for breeding through hyper training unfortunately.

I've heard that male Pokemon can now pass down the type of Pokeball they're in. I'm guessing it only works with Ditto?

Can you really find Munchlax in route 1? I need Leftovers, and I haven't found a single one.

>>30166484
Fuck no. I'm almost done with the third island and I only have 3/15 of those passport accomplishment things

>>30166601
>>30166484
Incorrect. Each island is effectively a fourth of the game.

By the time you beat the game you have ten more accomplishments left on the passport, but that has to do with Pokedex completion and the Battle Tree.

how do i get second cosmog

>>30166572
If it's not an urgent matter, you get loads of dosh after a long postgame quest.

>>30166572
Fish and hope you get pearls and shit I guess. Anyone autistic enough to care about money before post-game is probably using the event munchlax with amulet coin every single team fight.

I already know you're just memeing because the first island is just a giant tutorial. If you don't speed run through everything and ignore trainers and side quest, the second island alone takes twice as long as the first.

Are there any SOS only Pokemon other than Mareanie?

Your bag options are shit, so if you're an autistic fashionita like me then you're just gonna have to build around it until you get the skull tank postgame at which point you become a punk ass bitch fucking shit up because the clothing options that go with the Skull Tank are dirt cheap. At that point you can use the one million you get from the UB quest to buy whatever the fuck you want.

YA BOI is a good start. Caps required.

Do Island Scan mons get HA or SOS?

Are there any starters you can get post game like in some of the other games? I'm just looking for everything I can find after beating it like that skull swag.

>>30167391
You can get gen 2 starters from the Island Scan feature.

Should I use Bounsweet or Fomantis?
I got both of them at the same time and they seem like they'll both be physical attackers

>>30167346
>HA
Nope.
>SOS
Dunno.

How do you get Lunala to enter the Full Moon phase?

>>30167346
>HA
No
>SOS
I've tried, but no.
Though they do start with a free predetermined Egg move. Honedge starts with Destiny Bond, for example.

>>30167436
Use Fomantis. On the fourth island they practically give you a Tsareena with high Special Defense IVs, you can just use that when you get it.

>>30165718
Depends on what you want. A mix attacker, physical, special, a physical or special wall. Celesteela is very versatile.
>>30165496
Yes.

What happens if I accidentally kill an ultra beast? Can I still encounter it?

>>30167436
Bounsweet has the better final evo of the two.

>>30167454
it's just an attack lol

>>30167523
Yeah, it'll say "its presence still lingers" or something like that. You're forced to catch em all.

>>30167469
>>30167437
Well shit, no Contrary Serperior then.

so if I want to SR for Tapu Koko, do I seriously have to beat fucking Kukui every fucking time?

>>30167546
Is it an attack you get at a later level or something, I've used all the moves it started with and it never changed form.

Some anons were saying you can catch version exclusive ultra beasts in the other version, is this true

>>30167591
No, you can just knock it out and fight it again later.

>>30167436
Fomantis' final you can get access to sunny day + solar blade which is pretty fun but Bounsweet's final has better stats, better abilities, and evolves earlier.

After beating Olivia, where can I find and fight Mallow? I already got Kiawe (top tier bro) and Lana (qt).

What the fuck do you even get for beating the captains again? It says it has to do with the way they looked in battle but I've got nary a clue.

>>30167813
Kiawe is sun only, Mallow is moon only.

>>30167808
I'm not 100% sure, I think you just walk back there once the credits are done.

>>30167813
You get different ways of throwing pokeballs. Can change your throwing style on the third island, the route up from the first city to the waste disposal place.

>>30164150

What's the best way to farm heart scales?

>>30167737
I usually play with the thought that they do attack, then status, then attack moves again. Not Plumeria's bullshit of Flame Burst-ing the fuck out of almost half my team

This might be the easiest postgame legendary I've ever caught.

Anyone know where to find west-sea Gastrodon? I've checked pretty much every area that is found and only find east-sea Gastrodon. Is it game based? Time? SOS from east-sea?

Are the different colors for Minior locked to different versions?
I'm playing Sun and I've only seen orange, yellow, and purple so far

>>30167436
Whichever you like the most.

Tsareena has better stats. Their basic grass attack probably does around the same damage, just one lowers atk and the other can crit. Tsareena gets High Jump Kick and Lurantis can learn Leech Life/BrickBreak/SwordDance. You can also get Solar Blade just to Z-move it and get a stronger grass z move.

What level does Kadabra learn a damage dealing move? I caught a level 7 Abra and it's currently a level 19 Kadabra with only 3 moves: Teleport, Kinesis and Disable.
I'm also not using the xp share to train him since I dislike how ez mode the recents game have become with the xp share change so I've been switching him in and out of battles to receive xp.
It's becoming a hassle now, I just want him to be able to fight for himself...

>>30168501
A lot of evolved pokemon are, but you can catch pichu. That family isn't found -only- via SOS like Mareanie, Castform and Goodra are.

>>30168543

Turn the xp share autist

>>30168543
It should have learned Confusion at level 16/when it evolved.

>>30168582

>1% chance to get a mareanie

Why

How do I start the eeveelution side quest?

>>30168592
It learnt Kinesis when it evolved.

>>30168586
I don't want to, after experiencing how piss easy X/Y and ORAS were with it switched on.

>>30168609
Because every day we grow further from Arceus' light.

>>30168642

And now you are whining that it takes too long

Is dratini a 1 percent encounter rate?

>>30168642
Should have learned confusion too. It gets Psybeam at 21.

Red seems to have gone full Ryu and just trained in the mountains for 10 years, only coming down periodically to restock basic supplies and get new clothes. Blue and/or Green have probably been his only human contact for years.

Imagine if Pokemon had NG+ from the beginning. Now imagine that your copy of RGBY just kept his team through all 6 of the previous generations, carefully updating and adjusting for everything new.

>>30168484
After becoming the Champion, go to the Po Town pokemon center and pay the dudes 10k. You got at least 50k from just the E4 and the Champ, so this shouldn't be a problem.

If you're a girl, you can get worn black denim jeans, a black headband, camo socks of your flavor (I went with blue), and black sneakers of your choice for another 10~15k, if even that much (three of those items are less than 2k each, and the shoes are probably something you bought already).

5000 for a cut and dye so you can have wine red hair (or your flavor of blonde if you're a dude), and bam. Instant punk. Now go fuck up the UB storyline and imagine Wicke's reaction when you show up in your new getup.

>>30168722
>Blue and/or Green have probably been his only human contact for years.

>>30168543
There's a strange problem with moves that are typically learned immediately upon evolving.

There's a new mechanic in which Pokemon have a specific move they learn whey they evolve no matter what level they evolve at. In Kadabra's case, that move is Kinesis. Unfortunately, a Pokemon doesn't seem to be able to learn a second move the normal way if it learns a move in this new way. That means Kadabra learns Kinesis instead of the typical level 16 Confusion. To me, it looks like a bug or an oversight and not an intended effect.

Anyway, Kadabra should learn Psybeam at 21. Hang in there.

>>30168688
It only learnt Kinesis, maybe it's glitched out?

>>30168661
not complaining, just wondering when he's gonna become useful.

>>30168642
>>30168688
There's a new feature in SM called Evolution Moves; moves that a Pokemon will always learn upon evolution, no matter when they evolve.
However, if a Pokemon's Evolution Move can also be learned at Lv. 1, and overlaps with a move the Pokemon would have learned through standard level-up (in this instance, Kinesis and Confusion), then only the Evolution level will be taught.

>>30169398
Press Y on the status screen. And yes, with the berries.

>>30169388
I don't think there's Game Chat in this gen.

>>30169391
There's only two sources of Mega Stones so far: The one Dexio gives you (Alakazite for me, and I think that's consistent across all versions), and the ones you can pick up in the Battle Tree. There's also the Primal Orbs that you can pick up in the Mall in postgame for 10k each.

All in all, less than half of the megas from Gen 6 are supported, meaning that if GF doesn't patch them in by January, most of your Bred Megas will be useless.

Hopefully they just phase mega out completely by next gen.
