    I had a revelation

    Posted: 23 Nov 2019 02:53 AM PST

    You know why the routes of Galar are much more straightforward than in previous regions?
    They were originally more open and with different paths, but after Leon, the Undefeated Champion, became the Champion, they were terraformed so that he, the Undefeated Champion, and his Unbeatable Charizard would not get lost while traveling.

    Truly an incredible World Building detail.

    Edit: More information about Leon, who is, indeed, Undefeated.

    I love that the Stadium actually chants my character's name when I'm playing againts the Gym Leaders.

    Posted: 23 Nov 2019 12:24 AM PST

    Honestly I was really surprised, its clear they really made an effort to make the player feel their trainer was winning over the crows, so I was delighted when they started chanting my character's name. The way it also harmonized with the music was really clever, I felt like a true challenger taking on the big leagues. What a delight!

    I named my character AAAAAAH.

    Ash's victory in Alola has more meaning than you think

    Posted: 23 Nov 2019 06:42 AM PST

    won a battle after his pokémon fell asleep to avenge his bullshit loss in the Indigo League

    beat a Fire-type starter with another Fire-type starter to avenge his loss in the Johto League

    won with unevolved pokémon wearing clothes just like the guy who beat him in the Hoenn League

    beat two legendaries AND got two legendary-like pokémon of his own to avenge his loss in the Sinnoh League

    beat a Lucario to avenge his loss in the Unova League

    beat his edgelord rival and not only survived but also absorbed a BURASTO BAAN to avenge his loss in the Kalos League

    final battle was with his longtime partner instead of the regional ace

    Sword and Shields story would be so much better if YOU were Hop and Bede was the main Rival.

    Posted: 22 Nov 2019 05:39 PM PST

    Imagine your first rival battle Vs Bede except he kicks your arse and demolishes you then rubs it in your face, stating that your brothers name would mean less since you're so weak. The journey becomes about YOU trying to beat Bede for legitimate interpersonal and self fulfilling reasons. You would feel more attached to Leon too, and see him as your brother instead of an awkward family friend.

    Your player character does NOTHING throughout the story, it's abysmal. I'm not saying we would have to literally become Hop, rather, assume his role in the story. It would be so much better.

    Right now I feel like a faceless voiceless nothingness when they were so close to having a very compelling story for the player, and not for Hop.

    This would also alleviate player issues with Hop being intrusive or annoying. Instead of him saying, "I ShOuLd HaVe KnOwN yOu HaVe MaStErEd TyPiNg" it would be Bede pissing you off and compelling you to push yourself, one of the main goals of Pokémon.

    Pokémon is about the trainer and YOU. I don't care about Hop, he missed the mark by 10 miles, but if we were Hop, I would love the story and it would be the Pokémon story we deserve.

    Thank GOD for the removal of the bike/Poké ride music

    Posted: 23 Nov 2019 08:10 AM PST

    It's a tiny change that I haven't seen mentioned yet, but it's one that's up there in my top 3 changes for the best, this generation.

    That Tauros song haunts me in my nightmares.

    What other tiny, tiny changes have you noticed that have made you enjoy the game more? (or at least aggrevate you less?)

    League cards should have the ability to summon characters in Max Raids.

    Posted: 23 Nov 2019 02:32 AM PST

    Spoilers for the endgame chapter.

    As you team up with the gym leaders to defeat the rampaging Pokemon they will give you their rare league card and say something along the lines of "If you ever need help, give me a call!" Yet as far as I know there's no interaction with them afterwards.

    I believe it would be great if we took them up on the offer and call for their help is max raid battles, replacing the RNG bs npcs we're getting right now.

    No more cosmic power Solrock, instead it's Nessa and her Drednaw!

    No more failing Wabbufet, now it's the oddly sexy Kabu and his Centiskorch!

    Agree?

    I really hate how this game handles dialogue options

    Posted: 23 Nov 2019 03:37 AM PST

    What I mean is when you are presented with 2 dialogue options, but the character you're talking to replies the same way no matter which one you choose. And they're always replying with something that is obviously written so that it would fit both dialogue options.

    A made up example would be you having to pick between "the sword Pokemon" and "Slumbering Weld" and the character will reply to either with "Right! The sword Pokemon from Slumbering Weld!"

    I don't know how hard would it be to just make it so that characters have unique dialogue based on what you choose but the way GF is doing it just seems so lazy 😅

    EV TRAIN IN MINUTES WITH THIS NEW METHOD-- Fast EV Training, Easy 5 Star Raid Battles, Insane Watt Farming

    Posted: 22 Nov 2019 08:31 PM PST

    The new EV training method is not very publicized yet so upvote to gain recognition. It overlaps heavily with the new raid farming and watt farming method.

    Obtaining 5 Star raid pokemon and watt farming:

    1. Obtain 1 wishing piece
    2. Visit den of choice- link to all pokemon in each den: https://www.serebii.net/swordshield/maxraidbattledens.shtml
    3. Set text to slow, save in front of empty den
    4. Interact with den, when it prompts to save hit the home button. During this time, before the game finishes saving, you will see either a red or purple beam (purple is rare, 10%-- this is what you're going for)
    5. If the light from the den is red, close the game and redo step 4. If the light is purple, continue.
    6. Set text to fast, interact with purple lit den. If it is the pokemon you're looking for, battle it and try to catch it. If not, continue to step 7.
    7. If it is not the pokemon you're looking for (ex. a 3 star Ditto and not the 5 star Ditto you're looking for), select invite others (make sure you're connected to the internet). While searching, press the home button and advance the date by 1 day (Home->System Settings->System->Date and Time).
    8. Head back into the game and cancel the search.
    9. Interact with the den again. You should obtain 2000 watts (easy farming) and a new roulette for a rare pokemon. Continue until you get the pokemon of choice.

    Easy Method of EV Training:

    1. Recruit your pokemon for the EV training pokejobs (Hammerlocke University seminars) while they hold the appropriate power item (ex. Power Bracer for Attack) (this is not limited to 1 pokemon-- choose up to 10 pokemon per job)
    2. Select whole day for duration
    3. Advancing the date by 1 day while connected to the internet as explained in Step 7 of "Obtaining 5 Star raid pokemon and watt farming" will count for 24hrs for the pokejobs
    4. Return your pokemon from the pokejobs. They should come back with 252 EVs in their selected stat

    There is a lot of overlap between both methods for increased productivity. Watt farm and hunt for high IV raid pokemon while EV training.

    Game Freak doesn't understand why people love Eevee

    Posted: 22 Nov 2019 11:20 AM PST

    Do you know why most people love Eevee? Eeveelutions, a concept so beloved by fans it has it's own nickname. You could probably start the next World War on favorite Eeveelutions (Sylveon, by the way). It's also fascinating seeing Eeveelutions. It's really interesting seeing how Game Freak designs a Generation 4 or Generation 6 evolution from a Generation 1 Pokemon and still keep it in line with the overall theme.

    So many people LOVE the Eeveelutions. You see it speculated every time a Generation is about to release , and so many great designs are created by the fans (Champeon, please).

    That being said, Game Freak has this weird mindset that people only love Eevee. Granted, there are a ton of people that prefer Eevee over it's evolutions, and it's definitely more marketable to just promote Eevee instead of all of it's evolutions. Generation 7 there was no new Eeveelution, and we got a Z-move for Eevee. Cool, I guess. It's nice to see Eevee get some love for it's unevolved form so it can compete with it's older brothers and sisters.

    Then Pokemon Let's Go Eevee came out. Game Freak promoted the game with Eevee and Pikachu, that's understandable. They're two of the most popular Generation One Pokemon and can easily be comparable. But WHY CAN'T THEY EVOLVE. Do you know how freaking cool of a concept Eevee as a starter is? If your team needs a grass type, bam. Leafeon. If your team has a lack of physical damage, get a Flareon. Need a tank? Umbreon and Sylveon got you covered. It's such an amazing concept that gets completely wasted.

    And most recently, Sword and Shield. Eevee got a new form where... it got bigger fur, I guess.

    Do you know how many people WANT new Eeveelutions? Give me a fighting type Champeon, or a cute but deadly Dragon evolution. People love Eevee, but most of the appeal of it is in the fact that it turns into so many different variations. Eevee is great, but seriously, stop.

    Did you ever heard the tragedy of Leon the Unbeatble?

    Posted: 22 Nov 2019 03:42 PM PST

    I thought not. It's not a story the Kantonians would tell you. It's a Galarian legend... Leon the Unbeatable was a Dark Champion with a Charizard, so powerful and so unbeatable he could use his a Charizard to influence the border patrol to ban Pokémon... He had such a knowledge of his unbeatable Charizard that he could even keep the ones he cared about from losing the league challenge despite having three Pokémon.

    He could actually save people from their own incompetence?

    The unbeatable side of the Charizard is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural.

    What happened to him?

    He became so unbeatable... the only thing he was afraid of was being beaten, which eventually, of course, he was. Unfortunately, he taught his Charizard everything he knew, then his Charizard Fire Blasted him in his sleep. It's ironic he could banish other Pokémon from Galar, but not his Charizard...

    Is it possible to learn this power?

    Not from a boycotter...

    Every Pokemon in a Rainbow

    here it is

    problem is I was particularly stupid in preparing for this so there are some questionable placements and I'm not sure if I left out any Pokémon, if you see anything missing please tell me

    I spent way too long on this help

    (btw Cobalion is behind Gloom, I know it's hidden)

    edit 1: removed repeat of Drilbur & Torracat, I somehow accidentally put shiny Raichu instead of regular Raichu, and added Yamask, which I forgot

    now it looks like I never did anything wrong

    mad photo-editing skills

    edit 2: what? I didn't accidentally repeat Rampardos and Bibarel, no I did not

    If the Dexit become the norm, there’s some things I would like to see about the pokémon…

    Posted: 23 Nov 2019 03:36 AM PST

    • Pokémon following you
    • 500 pokémon ingame
    • 30%~50% (150~250) new pokémon
    • Returning pokémon should have the same percentage per generation: no favoritism (if 10% of G1 pokémon are in the game, 10% of G2 should be here too)
    • The returning pokémon should match the new region and themes. (ex: no Maractus in a region supposed to be humid and cold)
    • The legendary should only be the new ones (and our Lord and Savior Arceus because it's our Lord and Savior)
    • More signature moves
    • The pokémon should have more personalized animation
    • More forms (sex differences, something like Vivillon/Alcremie) and changing pokémon (weather, night/day, seasons, etc.)
    • The pokémon should be more unique: visible height and color (saturation and brightness)
    • More feature like PokéCamps to bond and play with our pokémon (without abandoning them in a box because of some forced ExpShared)
    • Something like Poké Pelago for our boxed pokémon
    • EV, IV and even changing nature should be obtain via good mini-games and not only by force-feeding our pokémon with some items or talking to someone and pay.
    • Hat, bandana, clothes for pokémon (like LGPE or PMD)
    • Being able to change the ball or/and having a Ball Capsule
    • A special item giving 720 base stats and divise it according to EV and IV (more pokémon can compete despite their flaws)
    • Pokémon following you (again)

    What kind of features about the pokémon do you want to see?

    Pro-tip about a Max Raid Ace

    Posted: 23 Nov 2019 07:14 AM PST

    This post contains a post game spoiler!

    At the end of the game you will be given a Type: Null in the battle tower. Feed him some curry, and play a bit of fetch, and you'll have yourself the adorable bird-dog-fish-thing Silvally. We all know he was created to be the Ultra Beast killer of Kalos. In this region however, he is the perfect ace for taking down Max Raids. For two big reasons:

    Multi-Attack was increased from 90 to 120!
    Multi-Attack can be any dynamax move!

    When you dynamax Silvally, his Multi-Attack will say Max Strike. Rest assured, it will change to to the typing of the memory he's holding.

    I never really felt like you could use him to take down the UBs. There weren't enough of them to warrant the time training him up, but these Max Raids roll in daily.

    If you've got a slot open on your team, give this loveable, versatile chimera a chance. He won't let you down.

    Have fun with those raids!

    Thanos had more mercy

    Posted: 23 Nov 2019 07:54 AM PST

    So I was a bit curious how bad the dex cut actualy is as there are 400 pokemon in the game but the national dex has something like 800....

    Well I did the math and gens 1 through to 7 has 807 pokemon, with meltan and melmetal thats 809.

    The game has 400 pokemon but 81 of these are new so thats only 319 returning pokemon.

    Only 39.43% of pokemon survived dexit.....

    Thanos had more mercy lol
