I know you're not there yet, but don't worry about having suboptimal EV spread because of the pokerus; when you get to E16 content, you'll find EV resetting disks (for each stat) avaliable for purchase ($10000 each disk; fully resets EV on a particular stat). So you'll be able to re-train your main team to your liking. As for Gen VII, a personal favourite of mine is Oricorio. I know it might not have the best base stats, but I love it's versatility. Being able to change freely it's type (free-ish; it costs $2000 per change IIRC) it's something quite useful. And regarding Luna, maybe swap Meowstic for either Granbull or Florges? Other than that you're good to go!

Last episode is where we got Neo-Reborn for the first time, and OP asked about stickers after the city gets fixed up. So I answered from that perspective, and not from E17. If he said E17 on the title, that's nothing to do with me =)

Which ones are you missing? There are some that didn't change at all (like the Spinel Town teleporting girl); others are now obtainable through just talking to the person now (like the mother of the kid attacked by Drifblim and Scolipede; in Neo-Reborn, you just talk to the mum and she gives you the sticker without fighting anyone).

you could ask someone to trade you a crapmon with an icestone as a held item *shrugs*

Can confirm; I also found an Ice Stone like hidden on a stone (can't recall where, though)

oh sorry my bad, didn't read this was in Rejuvenation sub-forum; disregard my comment above. Sorry!

Yup, since the Z-ring quest involves the pokemon you buy from the 7th street. As for the shards, you get plenty from both mining and spamming the itemfinder (just register it and use it often, EVERYWHERE), You'll have tons of shards in no time.

wait... WHAT? so all that stuff happening to gym leaders and such ingame, are based on actual stuff that happened to actual people? jeez... exciting and sad on equal measures =\

wow, i totally forgot about that, good catch... i was wondering why i found 4 lame pokeballs in that particular spot, wondering if it was a bug or something XD

@HellBoyOnEarth @MrVISKman

technician meowth has always worked wonders for me, in every playthrough (technician persian later on is pretty useful too)

PM'ing you

Hi! I was wondering if anyone could trade me a crapmon with pokerus (infected, not cured), please? =)

Catching wild pokemon or breeding has a slight chance of getting a pokemon with pokerus. When a pokemon with pokerus gains experience in battle (thus, earning the respective EV's), the virus doubles the TOTAL EV gain from that battle. i.e; battle a Woobat with Power Anklet equipped on your pokemon ---> 1 Speed EV from Woobat + 4 Speed EV from Anklet = 5 Speed EV ---> (5 Speed EV x 2) = 10 Speed EV from a single Woobat battle! or battle a Squirtle with Power Anklet equipped on your pokemon ---> 1 Defense EV from Squirtle + 4 Speed EV from Anklet ---> (1 Defense EV x 2) + (4 Speed EV x 2) = 2 Defense EV and 8 Speed EV from a single Squirtle battle. As for getting pokerus, the best way would be asking someone in the Online Play section of the forums to trade you a crappy pokemon with the active virus (so you can spread it). Pokerus spreads (chance) from an infected pokemon in your party to your other pokemon, every time you win a battle (there's no need for the infected one to participate at all; just being in your party is enough). Infected pokemon IN YOUR PARTY, over time, will be "cured" and no longer spread the virus (but they'll still receive double EV even if they can't spread pokerus). This doesn't happen to infected pokemon in a PC box (the virus will remain forever active while it's stored in your PC), So my advice would be to spread your pokerus to 2-3 crappy pokemon that you'll never use (Rattata, Bidoof, etc) and store them in your PC, only taking them out when you need to spread pokerus to other pokemon. If one of those become "cured", just capture a new crappy one and infect it. Replace, rinse and repeat.

I think the most important part regarding Reborn's difficulty (aside from pokemon families avaliability) is it's level cap. On any pokemon game, if you were having a hard time with a particular fight/gym/E4, you just trained your team's ass off, overlevel them, and sweep the fight afterwards. The level cap on this game puts a halt to this, so that now you can't ignore type weaknesses with higher levels (as in using a lvl 60 Charizard to beat up a lvl 45 Golem). Field effects, too, greatly affect how the fights go; and if you don't take advantage of them (or play around them), your team's going to get hurt. BAD. Edit: There's even a cheap item (Common Candy, $300) which lowers the level of a pokemon by 1. That's how important level cap is on this game =)

Depends on what you already have in your team, it's IVs, nature, and your personal prefference. It's like asking which eeveelution you should go for, for a single eevee; it pretty much depends on the case. I'm a fan of both Gallade and Gardevoir, so i'd look at it's IV's and nature.

I know contrary+superpower does lots of dmg (i swept Ciel with just Malamar in my monodark run), but in competitive it'd be fairly easy to block a choiced superpower forcing a switch, throwing away all that setup. I'd rather have any other item, and as a 4th move either Hypnosis (if nature+IV+EV for speed is good) or Trick Room. That was my issue with his item choice for the Malamar, not with his moveset per se.
