I can't find a Maractus for the life of me. I've looked at everything I could possibly find (posts, replies, video guides, etc. etc.) on where it is but all the ideas I've seen for how to find one don't work. This guide says it's in a train event, but I have no idea where the train is. I've looked around Mysidia Railcave plenty because one person mentioned it, nope. Someone else mentioned it appears in Chrysolia Forest on a windy night, nope. I literally have no idea how or where to find it. Any ideas? The most annoying part to me is that I'm almost certain I've been on that train before, in another save file back in episode 15. So yeah, any ideas?

Pleasure doing business with you!

Will do, thanks! And yeah, I know that :P. I didn't know if dualtype is the right word for it, but basically I'm doing a run where I can use any Pokemon that are either flying or grass. But yeah, whenever you're available I picked out the best one I have.

As the title states, I want a Shroomish for my grass/flying dualtype thing. I have a bunch of shinies which I will put at the bottom of the post (you can ask about their IVs or whatever, they're all up for trade) and as far as I know the only other exclusive Pokemon I have is a charmander. Willing to try and just generally find a random Pokemon if needed, as I have finished most of the content up through part of E16. Tomorrow and Sunday I'll be around at least from 8 AM to 9 PM (probably longer) CST or CDT, whichever it is right now, if you want to set up a trade online. And if you're curious how I have all this stuff, I have two save files. One of which I finished episode 15 on and spent a few too many hours making a bunch of really good Pokemon. Edit: None of the shinies have amazing IVs as they are all wild. A lot of them are just satisfactory. Certainly no 5 IVs or anything like that (I kept that Chansey :P) but realistically they might be pretty good, since I haven't gone over them since I checked which shinies I want to train in the future.

Well he one shotted my entire team, aside from my Magcargo, barely. At the time I had a Combusken / Blaziken, Krokorok, Swellow, Slowpoke / Slowbro, Vivillion, and a Magcargo, most of them being from 32-35 (they started Silver Rise at 32 and when Tristan finally left they were around 34-36). And none of them had awful natures or IVs for special defense, either. And @Shpee (I swear I'm so bad at successfully quoting multiple people lmao) That was what I was saying, and since it seemed that the guide was listing every available evolution stone, I was just wondering why shiny stone wasn't in that list.

In the section in the bottom of the obtainable list where it lists available stones, why isn't shiny stone there? It's available as a hidden item in a rock right before the peak of the mountain on route 4, right here.

But to be fair, for balance purposes at that part of the game it's a bit harder than most other parts. You can catch up later as I've found out, but unless you're running a mono ghost team or a team of 100% shuckles, you are underleveled at that point which might be good to fix. Possibly.

By the way- I feel like it might be good to not have Tristan's Exploud have boomburst, as at the point when you team up with him, outlevels you and whenever he uses it, he will probably kill the opposing Pokemon and kill you, removing any EXP you'd get. I've found that it causes a nasty problem with being underleveled at that point in the game, and on top of that there's no Audino trainer to help with that. After I finished Silver Rise I was 8 levels below basically all of Hardy's team which was very annoying.

Yep, you're basically screwed. I had to reset my entire game because Caz is very busy I assume :/

I was wondering- is there a reason that the saves aren't backed up in games like Desolation? Because in games like Rejuvenation or Reborn, you can revert to an older save as all the older saves are kept, but in Desolation they keep no backups (And I've noticed that in a few other fangames too) which makes it very annoying if you save without thinking at a point where you don't want to save.

I'm just pointing out that it might be a good idea to use the + for pros and - for cons instead of always using -s to make your rankings more clear, but I'm just putting it out there Also, @Pyrrhon (Idk how to quote multiple people in one post, so I have to do that) I'd like to point out that we don't really know if Bouffalant is viable after the grass leader, as the episode basically ends right after you beat the grass leader. Just saying. And I'd also just like to say that (I'm just saying a lot of minor things to make the rankings a bit better lol):

I know that:

I assume the place where we can't use strength is in Kugearen? Cause I'm trying it and nothing is happening.

Even though the quest is for Totodile, this girl says it's an Oshawott in this line, and in this one

So wait, apparently there was a big choice this episode, but I didn't really see any choice that was that big? Was it turning in Flora or not turning in Flora? IDK it just felt like not that big of a choice to me. You meet this random girl that's the grass gym leader, she turns out to be part of some supposed evil team and acts sneaky about it, and then you choose to turn her in or not? I dunno, it just didn't feel like what it was hyped up to be Edit: Oh, well apparently it will have massive story differences for a while. Go figure, it just felt a lot more minor.

Edit:

What a great TM name amirite?

YES SO MUCH HYPE OMG PRAISE JAN

Sad face, all I want is to be able to get a dragon dance Whiscash but there is no Gyarados to get it because of Jan's feelings on Magikarp and Gyarados ;-;

I'd assume they will be in some sort of apartment store in Grand Dream, similar to Reborn. So I'd assume this version, or more likely (since the speculation that we don't get to Grand Dream yet), V9.

Well what I was saying was that I need someone to get me unstuck, because I'm absolutely screwed. Mkay? So does anyone actually have the PBS files to get me unstuck? Since the save backups aren't saved in the save data folder like they are in Reborn or Rejuvenation there is no possible way to get myself unstuck without someone modifying my position or restarting the entire game over.

Oh. I see. I thought I looked to see if it wasn't allowed, but oops.

Title is fairly self explanatory, though the context isn't there. Basically I put a post up asking about how to edit the save files so I could do trading stuff and get myself unstuck because I'm good at screwing myself over like that. But when I got the answer, I needed to know how to access the PBS files I believe, so I asked, and my topic randomly disappeared like an hour later? Tl.dr I'm curious who has the authority to delete posts on this forum or if whoever deleted my topic for the reason that I can't think of is reading this who you are and why you deleted it? Sorry if that was worded poorly xD

Nope. I was sitting there for approximately 15 minutes and I activated each of them and combined them in hope that it would get me out. I'm absolutely stuck. I don't know what the fuck I did to get myself in a pickle like that but I did xD

Slakoth can be found in a place called NO
