Move to D17

Except if we get Rock Climb, then Dragonite, Hydreigon and Tyranitar would become available at the same time because they all require Rock Climb. And at this point, there is only one line left to reveal, so...

Hold.

Well, you won't be getting it in E17 because USUM stuff won't be implemented yet.

Um, we have already seen her use Excadrill and Skarmory, plus her ace in the original Reborn league was Scizor, so it is safe to assume those will be on her team. As for E17, pretty sure there are 2 more lines left, unless Ame pulls another surprise Legendary/Mythical reveal.

I still strongly recommend going for Icicle Crash because Mamoswine in general cannot take hits all that well. It can survive one hit, but that's about it. Plus, Mamoswine is not that slow, it can generally outspeed quite a few Pokemon and it's huge attack stat means it can deal huge damage. Plus, Icicle Crash has a high Flinch chance. There's a reason almost no one else ever uses Avalanche on anything except for Avalugg and maybe sometimes Walrein. If you insist on going for Avalanche, though...it's hard to say, as it says that you have to have bred it in an earlier generation. Otherwise Mons like Dewgong and Walrein could be able to breed it after breeding Avalanche onto them.

Avalanche is...not a good move on Mamoswine. Avalugg can get away with it because it's speed is already extremely low, so it's almost always going to go last (Avalanche has negative priority). Mamoswine has decent speed that it does not want to waste on a move that forces it to go last. You are much better off breeding with a Beartic for Icicle Crash, a much better move for Mamo.

Not yet and it's left to see if Silvally will be obtainable in E17. If not, then it's safe to assume that Silvally will only be obtainable in Post-game content in E19.

Dratini is only obtainable in a location that requires Rock Climb. If we were to get Rock Climb, we would be able to obtain the other two Pokemon that require Rock Climb: Tyranitar and Hydreigon (Not counting the Dark Material trading as valid, it's a blatant exploit). That is why we won't get Dragonite this episode.

Well, we can say goodbye to obtainable Salamence then, as the last two Mon lines are almost certainly going to be Kommo-O and Garchomp.

Yeah, Phione is only being introduced because of it's disputed status as a Mythical. With the maybe possible exception of Silvally, we shouldn't expect any other Legendaries/Mythicals until post-story.

Phione's position as a Mythical is already hotly contested because of just how bad it is. Guess Ame figured that "Might as well give it because who cares about Phione anyway?"

I am still a little sad that the Breloom line is unobtainable outside of the Mystery Egg in E17. Anyway, yeah. Only three lines left to reveal, and Kommo-O and Garchomp are all but guaranteed, I feel.

For the most part, that is true. However, you can get Mudkip after getting Rock Climb, which kind of break this mold, being one of the strongest starters. Beyond that, yeah, generally you can expect the stronger starters to be unavailable until later.

Darius could see more guards approaching. Whether it's a coincidence or someone had tripped an alarm of some sort, what mattered right then and there was that they were running into more guards. Beyond the soldier that he prepared to strike, he saw a stairway up, guarded my more guards. But he did not care for that right now. His focus was on dealing with the soldier in front of him, at the doorway. The tome, despite it's tattered form, started to glow and he could see the tendrils of darkness slam into the guard. They force their way into his body and start ravaging him from the inside. The soldier does not even get a chance to scream as his body body spasms and writhes from side to side before eventually falling limp, a fine black mist seeping out from the armor, the elder spirits having practically devoured his body. Nothing remained of the guard as the steel shell clatters to the ground, Darius' tome returning to it's old and worn form. "Hmph. While I don't exactly appreciate such displays of power, at least it happened at a time where I can not complain. Here's hoping the other guards are too intimidated by this display to do anything."

D19, nuke Soldier 8.

The difference is that, unless they remove Torchic as a starter option altogether, there's nothing that can be done about that.

Not entirely true. You can obtain either Banettite or Heracrossite. Aside from that, yeah, no Mega Stones or Mega Ring. Charizard is not that bad, but surely you should have realized that you wouldn't have gotten Charizardite X because it would have broken the game's balance wide open.

Happy birthday, Azery! You're a cool guy to be around and hope that you have a great year ahead of you!

Well, I gave a fair bit of thought and decided "Sure, why not". I was hoping to be able to do it after university, but I don't have that luxury of time, so...alright. Let me quickly get something formed. I did not know exactly how to write a good backstory in this case. I knew what I wanted to write, but I did not know how to set it in the region, so...I hope this is good. If not...well, I won't really be able to edit much while in university, so...yeah. If I'm good, though, then my Discord is Anstane #6534

Move to F21.

Indeed, it is I. Wolfox?

Alas. noobly?

There is one Heart Scale you can find before Marianette, as far as I know, which is in Amethyst Grotto. It's hidden on the right side, next to a tree.
