I see. That sounds extremely tedious to do. I guess I won't mind doing it once so I can use less powerful pokemon but wow that's pretty damn tough.

So I have a question. Since every Pokemon is now available in episode 18, exactly how are they placed in the game? Are they placed the same way as obtainable earlier or have their events/locations been updated so that you can catch them sooner? For example Magikarp is only available after renovating reborn, that to only with the thief event guy. Can Magikarp be available before renovating reborn now? If not then how is someone supposed to use it in a team when all the Pokemon in the party are most likely past level 65? Or are we supposed to keep on changing our team and constantly level up like 50 different pokemon throughout the game for all 18 gym leaders? Also will wild Pokemon like a Ponyta be available before a gym like Florina? Or a rock pokemon like aron will be available before fighting Serra? Or would we just have to make do with what's available? Planning on the replaying the game after episode 19 so asking. Thanks.

Why not Tyrantrum?

Yeah because everyone speculates Saphira to be the LAST gym leader. The last gym leader is always the toughest and hence is being talked about. No one is talking about Hardy because rock types are manageable and everyone expects dragons to rule the gyms.

In episode 18 it is available as a proper event. That's why I want a guide.

My team is supposed to be: Greninja = Starter Volcarona = Guide Please Garchomp = Solved the puzzle of the quick sand in the desert. You need to have pokesnax with you. Go through the holes, open the door by interacting with Arceus statue on left and right. Defeat the Garchomps to get through. Place pokesnax in middle. Escape via hole. Go back to same spot(no Garchomp this time). Save. Interact with Gible from behind and catch it. Metagross = Solved Puzzle of the wasteland. You have to use the healing machine in the wasteland. Then go to route 1 and get a Tauros to ride. Then whiteout while riding it. You'll still be riding Tauros in wasteland. Get a Pokemon with flash and rock smash. Jump over walls and get to the bottom after rock smash. Enter the cave on the the top left. Make all tubes red if you want. Go behind the tube on bottom left and go forward. Follow the path. Jump the ledge with Tauros. There'll be a machine. Save. Interact with machine and catch Beldum. Salamence = Guide Please Hydreigon = Collected two dark materials(third in episode 18) and have soul candle(buy from seventh street). After getting 3 dark material and one soul candle I have to interact with a pillar in Subseven Santcum. I think it's the one in the inner room where Luna was tied up. Someone please confirm in comments. To get dark materials look at a YouTube video. If someone can make a guide for Larvesta and Bagon it would be great. Maybe even Froakie for others. Also please confirm location of where to use dark material. Thanks.

Oh lol that makes sense True mold breaker definitely helps. But normal dragons would do the trick too for the rest of her team

No dragon, ice and fairy weakness? Well looks like a Goodra and a Haxorus with dragon dance could easily sweep this gym.

31 cool

Yeah you had better restart the game. You'll be able to build a much more solid team and you'll understand the story better too. Plus episode 18 is the one where your choices affect the story so it'll be fun.

Have Galvantula with bug buzz on your team instead of Arcanine. Open up with Noivern and Swampert. Spam Earthquake for over all damage and Hurricane/Dragon Pulse to kill a Pokemon. When Swampert faints, switch to Skuntank and spam Night Slash. If Noivern dies first then switch to Galvantula and continue till Swampert dies. Make sure to target his trick room set ups. You'll win the battle then. If it's still not enough then train that Mightyana up to know sucker punch. It should be a wrap then.

28 I thought it was 7

Right on the money! (except for Larvesta) So my team will probably be Volcarona, Greninja, Garchomp, Salamence, Metagross and Hydreigon. Now I wonder whom to mega...

Wow this is a great method! Thanks for explaining the steps. I think I'll try trading between my two save files with dummy pokemon. If item/pokemon cloning is also possible then that's great. I'll have good pokemon in both files! Thanks

So Ame will never make it possible for trading between two save files of one person? Seems like a huge waste if you ask me. Anyone would probably like to use the team members they raised on their own but each game might be it's own story. I guess everyone will start going to the people who hand out free IV bred pokemon and stuff.

Thanks guys for jogging the memory a bit. I guess I completely forgot about Shelly's story and the Cal and Blake stuff. In my defense it's been more than a year since I saw their dialogue and it's not spoken about again so yeah. I guess I didn't go with Laura through Tanzan mountain so I didn't know about Lin either. I don't skip dialogue in the story at all but it's pretty easy to forget with the huge range of characters and the long gaps between episodes. Didn't know that Titania was a Shakespeare thing but her entire character is like a cut out of Erza in the design. Pretty cool though. Go talk to some people on the forums who discuss the story. Many people in the past have told me this statement and that our character is simply a spectator or as I like to call him, an errand boy. Oh and you might want to read a few books in Florina's gym. Maybe one or two diaries. Uhh, nothing? She didn't know she wanted to go to seventh street until she went looking for the weed. Now she has a cool hobby/pastime. Wow this is some good back story. It shouldn't have been kept as optional that you only get when you go with Laura. Thanks for clearing that up.

So there are some characters in reborn whom I don't know about. Meaning exactly what is their role in the story. I highly doubt they're just random people with no purpose. So here they are: Who the heck is Laura? She had literally one minute of game time in Saphira's house or something where we ran to escape team meteor. Then she straight up left(I think?). Maybe she's related to Charlotte and Saphira and is the member of the elite four. But how come she's not doing more stuff? She just disappears from the map and we never see her again. Weird. Blake. So who's he? Some random evil dude who just happens to be 10 times stronger than the ice gym leader with a better team? And he seems to have a thing for troubling Heather. At least he's mentioned in the character list so I'm assuming he's important. Cal. Supposed to Victoria's boyfriend or something? Something about being Kiki's apprentice/student and in a relationship with Victoria but he joined team meteor on his journey so he's a bad guy now? I feel like he did Kiki a favor by killing her because he saved her a painful and slow death by illness. Just like how horses who get crippled are shot as a mercy kill. But Victoria hates him so who knows. Shelly. Bug gym leader who is important for some reason? I mean, why is she even traveling with us in the first place? I'm sure more powerful gym leaders would be better companions than a mono bug team. And the poor guy in Lapis Ward has been waiting so long for her to return. Let him get his badge already man! Erza Scarlet aka Titania(There absolutely could not have been a more direct reference to Fairy Tail than this). From what I know, there's supposed to be four girls who are the main characters of this story. Amaria, Titania, Luna and Heather. The whole story is supposed to revolve around them. Amaria has depression or something and depends on Titania. Understandable. Heather has Daddy issues. Understandable. Luna just likes to be in the dark and alone. Maybe she'll be expanded upon later(Not much character at all for someone who's supposed to be a main character). But what about Titania? How'd she end up with Amaria and her hell life anyways? They went to school together but that's it. Even Florina went to the same school I believe but she's not important? And how come Titania went to an actual school and got an education but ended up in the desert with a bunch of stowaways whom she takes care of? Kind of seems like a drastic change from a proper urban life if you think about it. Lastly and finally. I know this character is not shown much at all and hopefully something will be said about them soon. But I'm just mad that this character isn't even listed as one of the characters on the character page. It should practically be a sin for someone who anhilates a mountain sized Steelix with a Hydreigon to not be listed as a main character! Yes, I'm talking about Lin. Even in the ?? category she's not there. She had better be in the champion room or something and have a pulse Hydreigon. This is one character whom I'm definitely very interested in knowing about. Her methods are direct and to the point. She doesn't hesitate to do the needful. Heck, team meteor started becoming violent and blowing up stuff because of her, according to Taka. Her character is a must know about, especially since after her using Hydreigon, it became one of my favorite Pokemon. That's all for characters I don't know. If anybody knows about them or just wants to discuss about them and other characters then feel free to do so in the comments. Thanks for reading.

The mod sounds perfect. Maybe Ame will actually make it a game feature. Because the opening two saves at once sounds pretty risky. Is there even a way to trade between games with the same account in the first place? Well, thanks for the info.

I can't wait to replay the game after episode 19! Hopefully there is some method to transfer pokemon between save files. Otherwise we'll just have to trade with reliable people to get our pokemon or something. But finally seeing the story in it's full light and maybe even chosing different paths would be amazing to experience in full. Plus with all pokemon added it's going to be pretty cool to replay.

Well you wrote larvitar twice. Do both rock climb spots lead to the same location? Also thanks for this guide. Getting Hydreigon will be easy now I know where the last material is but still don't know where to use the items at. You might maybe want to mention that Drudigon is available in Titania's gym in the area with a lot of grass. Those Drudigon have rock climb so it's the easiest way to get the move. Just for ease of access or something you know.

Sorry but I haven't insulted anyone even once. Unless of course you consider stating of facts and experience of another player as insulting then there's nothing anybody can do about it.

That's what happens when I don't proof read I guess. Doesn't change any of the facts I stated though but you can try all you like.

Didn't expect the Larvesta but I was right about other stuff. Well, this is going to be a good time breeding pokemon.
