    Pokémon Presents - Pokémon Day 2025 - Pokemon ZA Info & Pokemon Champions Announced

    I think the main reason everyone is honing in on Disarming Voice is because we had the same discussion nine years ago (whoa) when we saw it on Popplio, and that time the prediction that it meant it would evolve into a fairy type was correct It would be pretty funny though if Flittle was the...

    Pokémon Presents - Pokémon Day 2025 - Pokemon ZA Info & Pokemon Champions Announced

    The funniest outcome would be that they scrap Ash-Greninja and then it gets two new mega designs like Charizard (Mega Greninja Z and Mega Greninja A)

    Pokémon Presents - Pokémon Day 2025 - Pokemon ZA Info & Pokemon Champions Announced

    Megas definitely won't stick around long-term, even if they do reappear in gen 10 (and I'm not even sure that will happen). The mechanic requiring a specific set of Pokemon to work means that they have to include (at minimum) a large chunk of them in the dex, and it's a significant amount of...

    Pokémon Presents - Pokémon Day 2025 - Pokemon ZA Info & Pokemon Champions Announced

    I think it would make more sense for the starters to have regional forms, because I'm expecting them to give mega evolutions to Chesnaught/Delphox/Greninja. Introducing two sets of starter megas in the same game would mean that a relatively large percentage of the new megas are taken by them If...

    Nov-Dec 7* Tera Raid: Water-type Samurott-H

    I tried Anubis's Corviknight strategy and it was pretty free. I managed to roll Staraptor, Bellibolt and another Corviknight as NPCs and it actually made the raid a bit too easy because intimidate/paralysis meant I didn't die early on when I was expecting to and had to improvise. I just charged...

    SPOILERS! Scarlet & Violet Leaks Thread - Data/Mechanics

    That would make sense. I know Maushold works similarly in that the family of three are much more common in raids

    SPOILERS! Scarlet & Violet Leaks Thread - Data/Mechanics

    I don't know if anyone has looked into this yet, but do we know the raid chances for Poltchageist and Sinistcha's different forms? I just caught a Masterpiece Sinistcha in a six star raid and I don't know if I got seriously lucky or if it just has an inflated chance of happening. I'm not sure...

    lol. Well, poor Flapple and Appletun

    SPOILERS! Scarlet & Violet Leaks Thread - Data/Mechanics

    Yeah, I'm not saying Dipplin won't get an evolution, but I'm not convinced by anything we've seen so far that it will get one.

    SPOILERS! Scarlet & Violet Leaks Thread - Data/Mechanics

    It has the same BST as Flapple and Appletun, so it would be really strange if it does end up getting an evo

    April 7* Raid: Samurott (Tera Bug)

    I wanted to try this with a less optimized Annihilape (a competitive one I had already raised) that was tera steel with Vital Spirit and a Jolly nature. It was still incredibly easy, so I think this really is the smoothest way to solo the raid. I brought Bulk Up but I didn't have to boost at...

    Iron Leaves and Walking Wake Raid Event Movesets

    Holding a Clear Amulet makes Walking Wake relatively easy. I used a Rotom-Wash and just boosted with Nasty Plot. For Iron Leaves, I didn't have much trouble using a Kingambit holding a Mirror Herb to copy it when it uses Swords Dance The real difficulty of these raids is just finding online...

    SPOILERS! Scarlet & Violet Leaks Thread - Data/Mechanics

    Hisuian Zoroark's stats being altered makes me wonder if they might end up rebalancing some of the PLA moves before Home support is added

    Is there a major disparity in Gen 9's version of choice?

    I got Violet because I prefer all of its exclusives except for Iron Treads (Slither Wing is pretty close but I love Iron Moth a little bit more). Nearly everyone I know got Scarlet, though

    Post Your Scarlet & Violet In-Game Teams!

    I did a second run to try out Sprigatito and to see how early I could feasibly get Gholdengo (the answer was before fighting Brassius, after running around the entire region skipping fights). This is what my team ended up being: And here were the pokemon who I also used for a significant...

    Post Your Scarlet & Violet In-Game Teams!

    My first thought is Glimmora. I'm not sure if it's as "OP" as the rest (although it has really high special attack), but its types don't overlap with what you have whereas most of the other strong Paldean pokemon do

    Next 7* raid: Cinderace Terafight!

    Skeledirge seems like a good pick for this raid, if you already have a competitive one trained up. If you're using the defensive tera fairy set that people like to run online, then a combo of Torch Song/Tera Blast/Slack Off is a pretty strong option vs Cinderace. For the last move you could run...

    SPOILERS! Scarlet and Violet Gameplay/Story Leaks

    I think it would have been funny if Geeta's first pokemon was a Palafin that always started the battle with Flip Turn. If I redesigned her team I think I would go with Palafin, Frosmoth, Dragonite, Ceruledge/Armarourge, Kingambit and Glimmora I like Espathra and Veluza but I don't think they...

    SPOILERS! Scarlet & Violet Leaks Thread - Data/Mechanics

    I had that happen a number of times with Charizard but assumed it was a bug relating to the event raids (a lot of people were opening and canceling their public lobbies for whatever reason). Good to know it applies to every raid

    Best pokemon to prepare for the 7 star charizard?

    Yeah I'm definitely going to rush for it, I just wasn't sure how much I needed to. I would already be ready, but I had the dumb idea to use my apricorn balls to catch the legendaries, which really slowed down completing the dex. Wo-Chien refuses to stay in my single friend ball :(
