What's your excuse for not completing the Alola Pokédex?

I've played for about half that time and my dex is about half full. Makes sense.

I don't need one.

Finished mine around the 90 hour mark.

>>30635189
Finished mine plus all of the QR pokemon is less than 110 hours
Eat dick

Because I'm autismal and I want a timid Necrozma in a Beast Ball and the game isn't fucking cooperating, even with a timid Synchronizer leading the team.

>>30635328
That's in total, though. I have 80 hours in Moon and 32 in Sun. I wanted my own Legendaries and exclusive UBs.

>>30635189
Don't need one.

>>30635189
Finished it last Thusrday my man. Took maybe around 100 hours for me.

>>30635189
My living dex is complete (different forms too) if we talk about new pokes. I'm just waiting for the bank to finally obtain my national living dex

I literally completed 3/4 of my pokedex through GTS.

injected it, work on living dex for switch

So does S/M not have a national dex?

Why would anyone do this?

All part of the plan to reboot the series, anon.

I got banned for using wonder trade 1 day before release without knowing about the bans. So I can't use the Internet to trade. And I have no friends, so......

Almost complete. Just have the last UB's to catch and all my evolves. Currently at 85% at 70 hours

Took me 66 hours to beat the game and complete the Pokédex

Get good autist

>>30637253
Not OP, but I play at work and often have to let my game sit idle between calls. Otherwise my play time would only be at about 50-55 hours

>>30637178
>Hail Nintendo
hold on there pal that's going too far

Completed mine december 2nd. once again thank you kangaskhan

>>30635189
I still don't have the game

I ordered on the 18th

>>30635189
i've bred like 20 boxes of riolu instead of trying to complete my dex

>>30635189
hellish spawn rates

>>30637180
it's been possible to evade for ages now you dumbass

I already have a living Dex in ORAS. I've already caught all the new Alola Pokemon as well as any Alola variants and Pokemon with multiple forms (Lycanroc, Oricorio and Minior). I'll be able to complete the National Dex in January. There's no point trying to complete the Alola Dex now because fuck trade evolutions and happiness evolutions.

>>30638561
>because fuck trade evolutions and happiness evolutions.
lol
Trade evolutions are ez if you just ask in the Wifi general, and happiness evolutions are also quite easy if you level them up from level 1 + soothe bell
Get fucking hood and stop making excuses you lazy cunt

>>30638608
I'm not sure about you, but I actually spend time playing other games instead of pointlessly grinding to achieve something that I can do almost instantly in a month's time.

>>30635625
>that image

i lost

>>30635189
My excuse is that the game doesn't provide any incentive that I care about.

>>30638637
It's the easiest pokemon game to get a full dex.
just gtfo you filthy casual

>>30635227
Holy shit what the fuck is wrong with Grimsly? He was so fucking chill in the main game, but here he fucking explodes when he loses.

>>30635189
ResEttington for shiny null

69 hrs to 100%
That's with breeding and using them for GTS trading

And I was only starting the third island

I don't see the point. I don't really give a crap about shiny pokemon neither so the shiny charm is worthless to me.

>>30635189
I've spent over 4 days soft resetting for a HP Fire Lele in a Heal Ball.

>>30635189
Politoad
Castform
Gabite
Milotic
Pherosoma
Celesteela
Porygon2
PorygonZ
Vanillit and Scizor...

>>30640576
gabite's easy

Evolving isn't fun

>>30635189
im trying but literally 80% of gts trades want a tapu legendary or box legend

>>30635189
I don't know how to start.

I'm at 70 hours playtime and I'm only missing Solgaleo and Buzzwole

>>30640576
Got one Gible on wondertrade a couple of days ago.
Try with the GTS.

>>30640815
>Searching on GTS

You have to offer, Anon, all on the non retarded trades get fulfilled pretty fast

>>30635189
Currently at 72%
Finals are approaching, so I don't have that much time to play.

>>30635189
Roughly one day per week that I can play anything.

>>30635189
I didn't end up with both versions this time so Lunala and every hold-item trade evolution is basically off-limits to me.

I'm at 80 hours and about 70%, I'm working on it.

>>30635189
I haven't finished because of finals week and classes in general.

Because I don't give a fuck about complete dex I'm having more fun breeding 6IV HA Spearow.

>>30641194
Get random trash shiny, put on gts for magmortar or electivire

thank me when your dex is complete

>>30641300
Or get non-shiny but vaguely rare/popular Pokemon that can be bred

I haven't finished the game yet. I'm at 90 hours and just defeated the electric dude

78 hours. Alolan dex is complete.
Bank has my living dex

No reason to play pokemon anymore till gen 8.

Working on it. I've had a Rowlet up on GTS for days now that nobody wants to trade a Litten for.

>>30641300
>needing a shiny for a magmortar/electrivire
Dude, just breed you starter

>>30635333
This I'm breeding shit for some reason even though I already have the essential mons I want breeded.

>>30641344
>>30641406

And wait forever to be traded? No thanks

>>30635625
I'll admit the only good video he ever made was the video where he blew the fuck out of Mat Pat on his "sonic isn't that fast theory" by outright saying sonic doesn't go as fast as usual in territory with a lot of obstacles, and when there's nothing there, he'll go mach 10 as evidenced by the Sonic CD Opening cinematic

>>30635189
tips?

>>30642337
Catch 'em all. If you can't do that, breed 'em all. If you can't do that, trade for 'em all by breeding a rare/popular Pokémon and depositing them into the GTS. Wash, rinse, repeat.

I'm not autistic

>>30639483
He lost his job and place on the elite 4.

>>30635189
Because everyone on GTS is too stingy

Because that implies I'm actually trying to catch them all
>also I don't want to give that fucking Rotom the satisfaction of feeling complete

I'm not going through the bullshit involved in catching Castform and Vanillite. I already have them in my fucking bank- I'll just wait until January to finish the damn thing.

>>30635189

But anon, I did finish the aloladex! I'm currently using my shiny charm to chain for a shiny Salazzle!

>>30640815

>not knowing how to properly use the GTS 10 years after its debut

>>30635189
Because I'm fucking lazy

Because I haven't finished the game yet.

>>30635189

I have a living dex for all of the new Pokemon outside of Marshadow, at least. But since I already have a living dex of the previous 721, what's the point of me going out of my way to catch over 200 more Pokemon than I have to, just so I can complete something I'll complete next month anyway.

I just did yesterday, my play time is around 200 hours in, Type: Null was the last one I needed, so I left it and other things that evolve by happiness in the Pelago hotsprings.

I fell asleep with the game on twice as well, so it was idle during those times as well.

I'm planning to max out the Poke Finder thing next, but you need 1,500,000 points, and no rare Pokemon to take pictures of are showing up, so it'll be a slow grind.

I really don't have an excuse and don't know what I've been doing for the 100 hours I've been playing. My team is crap, I have no decent breeding pokemon and my pokedex is only around 65% full. I don't even have all of the TMs.

Waiting on the bank since i can transfer my AS data and also because i want to beat sun moon again before i complete the dex

>>30635189

I cant find a fucking castform

>>30635189
Already did it in Kalos (even Unowns) But since you can't get a national dex in this game I'm not going to bother doing in it in this version.

>>30635189
The dex has to be the last thing I complete. With the last Zygarde cell I collect being in Resolution Cave.

Perfect Zygarde vs Necrozma showdown.

Working on mine right now, I'm at around 65%. I catched what's catchable, I'm done with evolving what I catched, now I just have to breed to get pre-evos, then trade what's missing and get the trade-only evolutions.

Then I'll be looking for Zygarde cells. I have around 20 left.

I caught everything including alternate forms. Should I catch all the gender differences, too? Someone please stop me.

>>30635189
I'm working on it but trade evolution is a bitch.

I have a living dex in OR right now that lacks Unown-R, Manaphy, and Phione.
Besides my breeding, all I lack for Alolan forms and new mons are Rowlett's line, Psychu and Kodomo-o, all of which are on my 3rd run's team.

I am 134 Hours in, and I can't find a metal coat for scizor and a Razor Claw for Weavile. Also have not bother to ask anyone for Celesteela and Pheromosa yet, and I would like to keep them, but I just need to register those.
I also need a Politoed , but I can buy the King Rock .
That's all I need.

89 hours

60 hours in and 165 caught, most of that time spent fucking around and doing the story. This game really makes completing the pokedex feel like an actual doable feat, whereas in other games as soon as I got the national dex it made me want to quit trying altogether knowing how impossible it seemed.

Working on collecting all the Alolan pokemon/alolan forms right now. So far have all except Bruxish, Alolan Muk, and Lunala.

>>30639483
Had to make an appearance in these shit games. Either someone had some dirt on him, or he's really desperate for work these days.

I finally set up my Ultimate Catch-Mate Pangoro, so now I can finally go through and snag all the Tapus and Beasts.

Then as soon as I can meet up with my buddy with Moon, I'll swap version exclusives, grab an Electivire, and it'll be smooth sailing from there.

>>30635189
I might be in the minority here but I've never bothered catching mons I didn't like. I pretty much only catch mons I plan on using or ones I like.

>>30635189
>What's your excuse for not completing the Alola Pokédex?
I do not own a Nintendo gaming console.

The trade Mons are a bitch. Especially Porygon-Z.

I don't really care too much about completing it now since I have a living dex in the bank. I might go back to ORAS to get more Milotics though.

>>30646083
Metal coats aren't hard. Get a Pokemon with magnet pull and a buttload of quickballs/theif and just hunt magnemite in hauoli. Took me 25 mags to get one

>>30638561
>happiness evolutions.
yeah, giving 15 berries is so hard

>>30635189
I'm taking my time on purpose, whenever I have some free time I go catch some of the pokemon I'm missing, then stop, then resume the next day. To me completing the pokedex is the comfiest part of a pokemon game and I don't want it to be immediately over

>>30635189
>I finally finished mine after playing Sun & Moon for 112 hours.
That's my reason.
