So my future plans are for this series are: 1 - shiney Glalie. Its IVs are not bad, has Brave nature, so I'll have to do a physical run, but it'll be fine. It'll help relieve some tension. 2 - Kecleon: this is a gimmick-mon, and the gimmick sounds painful. We'll see. 3 - Golisopod: with its...

Ultra Sun with Spinda Ha. this was fun. Hard, but fun. And as I created this specificaly just to beat The League, I'm not even attempting the Postgame So first got a Quiet one. Yeah, yeah, Speed-lowering nature, but the calculation said it would still...

Ultra Sun with Corsola This little buddy is not as bad as people say. Well, not for single. But it's slowness is a serious threat to it at key places though. I took it on my Primarina-savefile, and that might not have had been the best idea, but I...

Ultra Sun with Dunsparce This is a gimmick-pokemon, An interresting one, but to give it true justice, some future speedrunner has to do the post-game knowing the AI and stuff, because it's complicated. Let's talk about moves: you'll need them. And without good stats, don't even try the run...

Ultra Sun with Araquanid I'm not sure why I did not ditch this one, but it did worth it. So made myself a new savefile for like the half a dozen next plathroughs, catched myself one Dewpider in Brooklet Hill (totem 2 area), and started the run after EV-training. Sure, this thing...

Listed every area's highest level pokemon in order of the walkthroughs are going. Made 2 chart for every generation: one for the wild pokemons, one for the trainer-used pokemon. Yet not tried to figure out how to mark totem pokemons for the ultra-games. Also, no idea how the switch-games work...

Platinum is done! video footage

So let's start the Platinum challenge: Mars was also not easy. Had to grind to 23 to oneshot the zubat so it does not Toxic me, and that level was also enough that though the Purugly still outsped me with supereffective damage, twoshot the kitty. Gym 2 was expectedly easy with Flying HP (lvl...

Ha. The mine seems to be some mandoline-effect. On the other hand, there is no chance I'm just going to loose a fight just to get out of some stoopid labyrinth. That's softlock for me.

My solution is: click-click-click, watch something in the background.

That there is a ledge in the Oreborg Mine you step down - and boom, you are softlocked. Or that if you go down to Giratine in Platinum, and you realise your team is not up to the task - you are again softlocked. Prove me otherwise.

So I have a question, as I figured out how to get the right pokemon: A) I can outspeed Cynthia's Garchomp with a Speed-boosting nature and busted speed EV-s. The stat total of HP + SAtk + Speed this way is 590.9 and the SAtk value is 242, HP is 141. B) I can outspeed everything else on...

Now let's see if I can wizard in to Platinum a flying HP type Unown, just to see how far it gets.

After grinding on Sidney for half the day, if anybody says Gen 3 Emerald is the peak of pokemon, I'll laugh the person out of the room. That battle is player-abuse.

Not.
