Pokemon Sun & Moon

[Flash Flyer - Sakura]

I need to get Metal Coats off Magnemite because needed for trade evolution to Scizor and stuff. (Also need to trade more 'mons on Moon cartridge if I want that Friend Ball / Rare Candy). That, and probably Razor Claw; rest of the items I could probably care less about at this time. 

[The Warden]

I'm just weird and obsessive. However, the Thick Club is good if you ever want to use an A-Marowak. Either way, I still need to get the Razor items and the Shed Shell, as the Grip Claw is moon exclusive.

 

Also eff me did the Magnet take forever to find compared to the Thick Club and Lagging Tail.

[~British Soul~]

As of now I've lost both a Cell Battery and Luminous Moss because the second I stole it, I got hit by the move that activates it. Makes me wish Banette came with Recycle.

I had to double check what the Luminous Moss did because I couldn't remember.

[The Warden]

I'm collecting stuff because I'm weird. Either way, I'm fishing for Bruxish to try and get a Razor Fang, though it's just for collection purposes since I bred a Gliscor back in X, and the same would apply to the Razor Claw, though I have no interest getting a Weavile.

As an FYI for people hunting hold items if you lead with a compound eyes Pokemon you have better odds that the Pokemon will be holding an item.

Not to mention all of those bar Nincada can learn Thief via TM.

Nincada actually can't. I actually think its the only Compound Eyes Pokemon that can't.

...you both said the same thing.

[Flame Dragon]

...you both said the same thing.

My reading comprehension is very poor. I thought he was saying Nicada could. IRSMRT

 

I'm actually really dumb because I'm pretty sure I checked this before and I thought none of them could learn it for some reason. Not 100% how I came to that conclusion, but I somehow did. Guess I should train up one for my stealing needs at some point.

[~British Soul~]

To be fair, I checked myself before I made my previous post.

Took the words out of my mouth.

Welp, the latest Global Mission is over, and the final tally was around 4.9 million of a needed 1 million. So yeah, the mark was surpassed and then some. The 4k FC has bee doing wonders for my Plaza, as it's currenty level 35 and still rising with every single FC I get. I imagine it's probably going to stop somewhere around 40-45.

[Flash Flyer - Sakura]

Mine's at level 36 and I got Battle Table Level 5 and another Rare Kitchen Level 3, coupled with over 6k worth of FC. So yeah, I should be set for a while. Moon one has 4K right now; haven't done too much on it but probably will hit 30 by the time everything finishes (Sun might be in early/mid 40s by the time everything's done; we'll see).

 

Just wish I could've did more self-trading, but what can I do about it now? Not like I really needed the Love Ball or whatever the prize was for trading 5+. (Might've been more if someone didn't snipe that Feebas I was trading with self)

Need to trade evo Porygon2, Slowking and Electivire, then the Sun dex is complete (or bring over stuff from Gen 6; I know I have Electivire, but need to check on other two [and I don't want to waste my King's Rock evolving Slowking])

[~British Soul~]

The next global mission which begins on February 28th revolves around earning battle points from the Battle Tree.

[The Warden]

Well Gamefreak, good funking luck seeing us beat that one considering how evil that place can be.

 

As for my plaza (Festivalison's), I've got 3 ghost houses and 4 lottery places, all with a minimum level of 3. The reason I have so many is because the ghost houses can reward you with Bottle Caps, and so can the Treasure Hunt lottery (which also gives Gold Caps as the #1 prize).

[~British Soul~]

Yeah, I don't see us getting anywhere near whatever target they set us.

[Tinkerer]

Tbh, I don't think I've won three single battles in a row in the Tree yet...

 

Then again, now that I'm able to breed better with the Knot, I think I'll try giving it another shot soon.

[Flash Flyer - Sakura]

Best record in Battle Tree singles (normal) is still 13, and that was with my close but not perfect 'mons. (I only lost because Celesteela didn't have Flamethrower to kill off Torterra before getting killed by a +5 Leaf Blade [guy kept spamming Curse]; I think I added it this time).

 

But yeah, the place is evil enough that I have to bring in max IV stuff and even my legendaries/power 'mons from previous generations, and even that's not a guarantee of victory. (This is why I end up using stuff in UU or higher for battles...)

Yeah, not expecting us to reach this goal.

On another note;

Following the announcement of the glitch with Friendly Competitions on Friday, The Pokémon Company has now put out a note saying that the glitch hitting the Friendly Competitions, where it'd block users from participation if they scan the QR Code before the competition, has now been resolved and should no longer have that effect.

[Flame Dragon]

In more news

"The Pokémon Company has put out a new note clarifying how the currently missing Mega Stones are going to be distributed. In the note, it explains that the Mega Stones will come through two means

First, given as a present to players of Online Competitions, such as with the Mawilite and Beedrillite in the upcoming 2017 International Challenge February competition. Here, a limited amount of players will get the code ahead of a wait period of 1 to 2 months before all players get the code.

Second is just through a code that will be given to all players through various events/online postings with no wait period

The method will vary depending on the Mega Stone and they intend to go through these methods until Summer. As always, we'll bring full details on the Mega Stone distributions as they come."

 

tl;dr Everyone will get the unreleased Mega Stones.

[The Warden]

I suppose that's not too bad, in that people only preemptively gain the stones anyways.

[Flash Flyer - Sakura]

Hopefully they do release all of the unreleased Mega Stones as just codes, and not require everyone to compete just to get them. (By now, they should realize that more than half their playerbase is either college/working-age, and don't have the time to participate in all the competitions, right?).

 

If it's just tournament players getting them early and rest of us get them later, then sure, can live with waiting a month or so.

And then we wait for them to announce when Marshadow's coming out.

Right, and I need to finish leveling up my Festival Plaza (which I named Altomare after movie 5) and see how far those 4000 FC will take me.

Same, though I'll probs end up entering anyway.

The 4k took Festivalison's from like, 12 to 46. It was a pretty potent amount of change. My Plaza is also full of just lottery spaces mostly Treasure Hunt. Today's haul from them got me like, 3-4 Bottle Caps, which is very welcome.

 

EDIT: So I was checking SOS stuff on Serebii, and they have some actual values for defeated mons, so here they are:

 

Defeated Pokémon - 5+ - 1 IV of 31 Guaranteed

Defeated Pokémon - 10+ - 5% Chance of Hidden Ability

Defeated Pokémon - 10+ - 2 IVs of 31 Guaranteed

Defeated Pokémon - 20+ - 10% Chance of Hidden Ability

Defeated Pokémon - 20+ - 3 IVs of 31 Guaranteed

Defeated Pokémon - 30+ - 30% Chance of Hidden Ability

Defeated Pokémon - 30+ - 4 IVs of 31 Guaranteed

Defeated Pokémon - 70+ - Shiny Pokémon Chance increased by 3 giving a 1 in 1024 chance without Shiny Charm and 1 in 683 chance with Shiny Charm

 

Chains also reset after 255 KOs.

I have a slowing. Use the kings rock for something else. It's from my alpha sapphire game.

Interested?

So working on my Pokemon Bank living Dex.  Got the first 110 from Kanto done, but for some reason, Bank doesn't register some Pokemon in the Dex as caught or even seen.  It's missing some weird things like Marowak, Gengar, and Primape, even though I have them in the bank.
