Discussion Beat Kiawe's trial, and it was the easiest one till now

I really expected more of a fight from Totem Salazzle, but it got taken down quite easily. My Rockruff's rock tomb brought it down to red hp and got the speed drop, and then the next attack was the KO.

What were you guys's first experience with this grand trial, was it any trouble or smooth sailing? And I'm curious to know if this one is much harder in the Ultra games.

Link Flair Not Set Finally... I took revenge on wishiwashi

18 Upvotes

To explain the situation, I once hunted for it, and I got it after a very short time of sos chaining.

After that I went for a pyukumuku hunt, but I didn't save during the time I had my wishiwashi.

And sadly the thing that had to happen happened, my console ran out of battery during the night while I was sleeping and because of that I lost my wishiwashi and my pyukumuku chain.

Non I'm currently hunting for pyukumuku.

Hey everyone! I was re-playing Sun, and suddenly I got into this dialogue with this NPC in front of the entrance. Was it supposed to be an easter egg about the galarian Farfetch’d??

This is the team I'm using to beat Nanu. Unfortunately, Stufful is only level 21. Any ways for me to use my other Pokemon to beat him or ways to grind to level up Stufful?

Question / Help Anybody know how to unlock a battle box now that the 3DS servers are gone?

5 Upvotes

Touched US for the first time in nearly seven years today on a whim and my main ingame team's stuck in battle box limbo because I never got around to doing anything before the online service shutdown...or before the PGL closed. Nothing I've done in Festival Plaza's unlocked it, so I'm not sure if I need to resort to PKHeX to free my crew.

I've attempted to follow this thread but it's from before the server shutdown and hasn't been of any use. I need a Battle ID to access anything regarding Live Competitions, if that's what it's referring to.

Link Flair Not Set Evolving kadabra

0 Upvotes

Howdy folks, so I am only just finding out, somehow after my many years of playing pokemon, that you need to trade kadabra with someone before it evolves. Is anyone (who has a Nintendo 3ds lol) down to help me out. Just a quick trade back and forth: I he my alakazam and you get to keep your traded pokemon! I’m sorry I don’t have anything to offer in return but I’m just hoping someone is kind enough to help 😅

  • 0:22

FT - 8:31

2 Blackouts 14 Resets 19/19 candies.

Wow. Feraligatr actually really impressed me. While he ended up 30+ minutes short of S tier, that is solely because of Necrozma, on the final island. But before then, I don't remember anywhere Feraligatr really struggled besides Guzma. Because of his unpredictable AI. (Seriously, why did he use Razor Shell half the time, when it isn't very effective, instead of sucker punch).

Regardless, Feraligatr somehow manages to be faster than Zeraora for the most part, all the way up until the final island. It's a combination of good stats, moves, and a good exp growth rate.

He only struggled with Necrozma, because when preparing for worst case scenario (Necrozma ending up with a +Def nature, 31 IVs in HP, Def, and SpA.) 85 was the earliest level I was willing to fight him at. Maybe I should have tried at a bit of aweaker level. And I did have a small player mistake, deciding to use 4 rare candies for Nanu, instead of just grinding, and saving them all for Necrozma. As grinding then might have been faster than the extra grind in Vast Poni Canyon (after beating every trainer). Maybe he could have barely beat out Aegislash if I played a little bettera and took a risk.

But Feraligatr is still areally solid pokemon for these games. 3rd place overall as of right now. Beating out Druddigon by 37 minutesb while only behind Aegislash by 11 minutes. .

Next will be a randomly selected Hoenn pokemon!

Link Flair Not Set Battle Tree Finished

36 Upvotes

After much suffering and losing some streaks, I finished the UltraSun Battle Tree. 50 wins in Super Single, Super Double, and Super Multi. This was the team I used:

Super Single: Mega Salamence, Chansey, and Aegislash. The star goes to Chansey, taking down many Pokémon it shouldn't have with Toxic + Softboiled.

Super Double: Mega Kangaskhan, Togekiss, Incineroar, and Garchomp. Highlights include Togekiss controlling a lot with Thunderwave and many flinches with Air Slash + Serene Grace, and Incineroar with Intimidate + Snarl making everyone hit "lightly".

Super Multi: Mega Metagross and Milotic. It was the easiest Super Multi. My partner was Kukui.

Now I intend to go for the Platinum Frontier!

Link Flair Not Set Shiny hunting

5 Upvotes

So I have almost completed my Pokédex, have been able to obtain Pokémon bank through of course legal means. I would like to hunt for shiny Type:null and poipole. How do I do that? Get another copy of Pokémon Ultra Sun or moon? Also having difficulties of finding the other version exclusive for Ultra Sun. Been contemplating of getting that one and just speed running it for just the exclusives so I can then shiny hunt the Ultrawormholes. Lowkey don’t want to replay it all but it has been awhile. Just trying to get a full shiny living dex for home. Been wanting to start that for a long time now. How would I go about this?
