That is exactly one of the main points of reborn: you won´t be able to use the same 6 (or even less) pokemon to play through the entire game. Neither are you handed a bunch of pokemon early on that do exceptionally well against the next leader(s). The placement is not random, they put thought into it. So if it changes, the changes will probably be minimal.

Give me a few minutes and I´ll try to find one of my old ones. Edit: Game.rxdata

Oh, I never knew that. Thanks for the clarification!

I like your story Just two questions: Forest´s Curse *adds* the grass-typing, so it should be a water/normal/grass type and Phantom Force should not hit anyways. So the AI applying Forest´s Curse can´t really be the main problem. Or am I wrong? And how can Soaks code be the same? It´s different than Forest´s Curse and Trick-or-Treat since it actually makes the target a pure water type instead of adding grass/ghost.

Are you sure there are no other requirements? Maybe I was wrong, sorry

Not that it really matters, but I´m quite certain that Deino is not available legally in Ep. 17. The availability list shows it as available since that´s an EP. 18 update.

I´m busy today, so it will have to wait till tomorrow. Want them shiny or with good IVs? Edit: Sorry, I just checked and can´t find the file with Larvitar. So I can only give you Deino (or any pokemon that´s legally available. Maybe you can find something good against Shelly, other than Larvitar. Abyssreaper99s idea with changing the field to a rainbow field is a good idea indeed. You don´t even need sunny day, Ninetales is enough)

I can do that. However, they aren´t obtainable "legally" yet.

HP up, Calcium etc. don´t increase your IVs, they increase EVs.

Im looking for a Ditto with as many 30 IVs as possible (to breed for correct Hidden Power). If anyone is willing to trade, just tell me what you want in return P.S. 0 IV in attack would be very nice! So the perfect one I´m looking for would be 30/0/30/30/30/30.

Hey guys, with active rainbow field, Sparkling Aria is boosted by 1.5. I was wondering if Oceanic Operetta (the z-version of Sparkling Aria) will be boosted aswell. Anyone ever tried it (or just knows how it works?) Thanks

Can confirm what the others said: you missed the opportunity If it is just about the Larvesta and you don´t mind missing the sidequest besides that, I can just trade you one.

Im not going to respond here any further because we will certainly not come to a conclusion. I was just saying that merely curious should not expect to sweep opponents and break the game with a Gengar. without a poison move, Gengar gets outclassed by quite a few pokemon, e.g. Mimikyu. Even on a poison-only team there are better mons. Yet, I would never say that Gengar is bad.

Sp. Atk and Speed (outside of destiny bond) are useless, if your opp. can easily wall you because you lack coverage. Gengars ability certainly isn´t great either and I´m pretty sure that we are not going to see its mega for a while. At that point we will certainly have the poison-move to go with it too. But whatever. All I was trying to say is that Gengar certainly isn´t what its made out to be at this point in the game

You have to be aware however, that Gengar doesn´t really get any good poison type moves yet.

Thanks a lot @HUEnd! Now I´m certainly gonna play my porygon-z in my rainbow team. (Just to be sure: You are certain, the Heliolisks attack didn´t just become fighting or normal by chance and missed because of that?)

Hi, I have a question about the rainbow field. Sorry, if this is not the right place to ask. - If I use tri-attack in a rainbow field, do I still get normal-type STAB or do I get STAB randomly depending on the type of damage, tri-attack is going to be changed into? Sources give conflicting information on this topic: some claim that special normal-type moves change their typing, others claim that a random typing is added to the normal type.

I really like that idea, gonna try it out, I think! But what do you mean with 68 bp hidden power? I´m pretty sure it´s always 60 and just the type changes depending on the IVs.

I´m pretty sure it´s not a bug and you are missing a step. are the basins empty and you have snax in your bag?

Yes, that´s why I told you that you have to refil the basin. As soon as you leave the area now, gible disappears and so do all the snax that you placed there earlier.

just go to the area above this one, drop down again to reset the event, fill the correct basin* again, go up and finally safe in front of the correct** sink hole and drop down to land right behind the gible (if gible isn´t there, soft reset and drop down again). *to find the correct basin: go to the area above the one you are now. find the arceus statue. follow the wall to the right until you find the second (not the first!) sink hole. it should be close to the wall in a corner. drop down and you land next to the correct basin. ** this is also the sink hole you have so safe in front. make sure to enter it from the south to land behind gible. ... I´m pretty sure that a few of the sink holes work. this however is the one I´m sure about.

As of Ep. 17 you should be able to find wild Absol anyways. Not sure though, if they have a chance to carry life orbs like the event absol does.

He should be at 7th street in one of the "caves".

I don´t really need anything in exchange.

That´s optimal. Just beat the next gym leader and you´ll be able to donate again.
