As a player who jumped from smogon meta games to bss a few moons ago, these things are not as hard to counter as you think. But unfortunately you do need to have plans in place for all those things or you will get cheesed by them. I think the biggest hurdle to overcome is the mindset that this...

Not too yappy. No long cut scenes. But the majority is talking to pokemon to figure out what they want and need. So he will need to be able to understand what they are saying.

I have played around 5 hours of it. I will start this review with, this is not my usual type of game. I am only playing it as a pokemon fan and I havent played the other games it is supposedly similar too. The game is reasonably good. My expectations were low, so that probs helps. Gameplay is...

Looking to complete home dex with touch trades. Looking for: Deoxys Magearna Hoping someone can help! EDIT: just looking for magearna. Thanks omastar for deoxys

Does anyone have a spare kee berry? I never played the ogre game haha (no longer required)

This is a great thread! Thanks for the effort putting it together. I would like to nominate an offensive core of Chien-Pao and Iron Moth. This is quite a common core and team archetype you see on the ladder. The idea of this core is to use Chien-Pao as a breaker (banded or sashed) and then...

Looking for a Flutter Mane. Can trade any violet paradoxes for it. Edit: got one on discord. Thanks Derpy!

Hi looking for Roaring Moon. Can trade any of the violet paradoxes for if.

Yes tera bullet will do the same as quick attack. It's only more damage when you don't tera scizor. It is quite situational I know (its similar to the knock off situation, rarely comes up). Sometimes you might not want to lose your bug type so you can take a ground or fighting attack. You...

Some move choices for consideration: Scizor - Acrobatics -> Quick Attack. 99% of the time you are clicking Bullet Punch or U-Turn only. The other two moves are generally filler. Quick Attack gives you a technician boosted attack to revenge kill a mon that resists steel (Fire or Water mons...

Yeah fair point! No switch is a bummer for those who want more of a challenge or to stick with 6 mons in a run. I defo like both of them. I don't really like to grind random encounters to level up that many pokemon and would probably stick with 6 if there was no exp share.

I like exp share. It allows you to rotate your team with different pokemon. Traditionally I would never change my first 6 pokemon. But in shield, I rotated about 15 pokemon in my team. It gave the opportunity to try all the new pokemon in the game!

I started playing Crystal a few months ago on my 3DS. I got through a couple of gyms and then my 3DS stopped charging and that was the end of that :psysad::psysad::psysad::psysad:

I didn't realise it had battle effects in DP (my bad!), just thought it was is the overworld. Interesting they brought it back for Legends, but I guess there is no misty terrain so makes sense.

I am actually OK for a Dexit sacrifice for a better gameplay experience. (we haven't got this yet though) I can understand that including all pokemon into a game becomes challenging when you are constantly adding more and more to the game and they were going to hit a tipping point eventually...
