    5* Raids for Shiny Treasures of Ruin

    Sylveon and water tera type. Metronome and tera blast. We won and were triumphant. Of course, the two Kyogres and the Walking Wake spamming rain dance, water spout and Hydro steam might have had something to do with it…

    5* Raids for Shiny Treasures of Ruin

    I’d take that, but mannnnnnnn, shiny walking wake…I really want it! XD

    5* Raids for Shiny Treasures of Ruin

    So…being greedy… When are we getting the shiny Paradoxes? I need my lighter shade of Walking Wake blue…

    5* Raids for Shiny Treasures of Ruin

    That’s quite a significant drop off compared to the other two, no? Glad we have managed to get the third one! Lets go get that final one. I have a few water types I am going to trial out. Or I could just try Sylveon and metronome again. XD

    Love this - always felt Victreebel line was shafted in favour of the oddish line - it’s great that Pokémon has done something with Victreebel at last. I think it’s a great looking mega, very creative. (Mega Dragonite is still winning it for me though)

    5* Raids for Shiny Treasures of Ruin

    I’ve seen quite a few grass ogerpons this week and every one of them seemed to be spamming the same moves, so I would guess like me and tera grass Sylveon, we’re just spamming metronome item plus appropriate moves at this point.

    5* Raids for Shiny Treasures of Ruin

    Update: Just for fun I tried this on my own just out in Paldea (not an online raid, using CPU allies). I actually won. Like, really surprised. More difficult than online but metronome and a high special attack user just spamming grass moves and grass tera is working. It shouldn’t work, but it...

    I think ZA looks fun and quite beautifully designed myself. Yes, it’s definitely no Xenoblade or Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom but it definitely is an improvement on PLA and SV in a number of different ways including how shadows and lighting are utilised.

    This Pokemon “XP” event I’m sure someone has said it already But X = 10 (roman numerals) P = Pokemon 10 Pokemon 10th Gen of Pokemon I dunno, could be wrong - but hey, just an idea.

    5* Raids for Shiny Treasures of Ruin

    So I won with a Sylveon with grass type tera and tera blast XD Like I think everyone else was carrying me a bit at the start but when the metronome item got going it really wasn’t that hard a raid.

    5* Raids for Shiny Treasures of Ruin

    Just did the raid. Used my regular play through Baxcalibur with ice shard and ice tera. Easy enough. Basically dragon danced my way to victory.

    Maybe it’s because I’m fast approaching my forties and probably nearing the halfway point and the slide down towards the sweet release of death but I am just taking every Pokemon Presents as a bit of a gift, it might be enjoyable, might not be, either way its still a bonus in my overall...

    I really, really, really don’t understand the Pokemon fandom sometimes. I have been here since Gen 1, I have wanted some Dragonite love since at least Gen 2! Now it finally gets a Mega putting it at least in some terms on par with the other Mega dragons, it’s as if Game Freak stole your puppy...

    Yes we also have these benches in Britain and it’s annoying to see them used in the game.

    I think in time you’ll appreciate that it’s actually crafted rather well - in particular that it is meant to hark back to Dragonair quite explicitly but if you look closer, you’ll see a few specific callbacks to Dratini as well.

    I love this guy so much I realised that, technically speaking, that's only one new mega, but I thought it was such a big one worth loving that it was worth mentioning twice

    I love this so, so much! This is a huge surprise given we’ve seen no sign or sight of them. Wonder if this was a late addition back into the mix?

    I feel like everyone should take note of what I say and then immediately predict the complete opposite. There’s champions, complete with a training editor for Pokémon. Great QoL upgrade and I genuinely didn’t see it happening. But oh my god, mega dragonite, so pleased to see him! Finally!!! So...
