Autumn Zephyr

Oooh, that's interesting~! I always did personally how the drifblim-specific items were able to pump it up a bit without forcing it to lose its Unburden access (I swear that Ability was busted in PMD2), though I'll admit that I didn't think of this mechanic specifically until I found out that the Silvally Crest was reworked to more greatly resemble the base mechanic. Though now I'm wondering if the king of Iesei (I think I misspelled that >_>;) would've had any significant role in the worldbuilding prior, aside from maybe being the ruler of yet another currently nameless kingdom. On a different note, is there any particular reason why Zygarde doesn't seem to have taken any action to stop the Calamity? It's kinda the sort of thing it's supposed to stop, after all.

I think I already know what sort of answer I'm gonna get for this one, but I'll ask anyway: Seeing as the episode subtly revealed that the Garufa were not only a society of skilled mages, but also quite technologically advanced (I wonder how many other people bothered reading the doors in the ark), how likely is it that the latter will have a role in the mechanics in upcoming versions? On a slightly different note, how early were the Crests planned to be a thing before the implementation in V11?

"Please not forget about do me"? Man, that's the closest I've ever seen to him sending out his team in the intended order! The AI's usually more interested in winning than getting the message across, to put it mildly. Side note: you're display of abusing "Hex, but Bug" reminded me that I should probably check to see what all can learn Irritation. I've kinda been underestimating the moves until very recently, so it's only fair that I at least attempt to give them the time of day, right?

One detail an NPC old lady on Route 8 points out that I haven't seen brought up yet is that spiritomb will only spawn at night- day and morning hours don't work. I'd imagine that this is tripping some people up, especially since Route 8 itself is so far out of the way.

No problem, no problem~

Definitely agreeing that it's worth the hunt- silvally is not only an effective 18 shinies, but some of them go beyond mere recolors and into minor redesigns! V9's "Starter Set" (which has since been reduced to just one Memory) does a nice job showcasing that.

Might I ask exactly what this is supposed to mean? It looks a bit like we're supposed to be graverobbing here...

It is, yes. And unless the event was changed from V10, you should be able to run from it and still be able to encounter it in that grass patch until it's either caught or K.O.'d- it'll be rerolled every time, making it a faster method than having to go all the way back to the title screen.

From what I remember when it was brought to Jan on Discord last night: The Silvally Crest is a bit interesting in that it doesn't need to be held to be effective- it confers its benefits simply by being in the Player's Bag (a trait that's highly reminiscent of the Pokemon-Specific items from the PMD: Explorers games). It gives silvally a 20% power increase to attacks of the same Type as its held Memory (effectively turning the Memories into Plates that only silvally can use), and gives it the benefits of an extra Ability. Exactly which Ability is replicated is different from Type to Type, and we unfortunately know what they are (it seems that Jan wasn't active in that part of redesigning it), so that's something that's gonna have to be tested on our own. Thank goodness for Debug Mode, I guess?

...Grasping at straws here: is the sliggoo yelling about yogurt significant or just flavor text?

Yup, it's a continuation that was added in the last Version. 'Tis a bit of a bitter pill, though. Edit: Accelgor'd real hard <_<;

Yep, and she doesn't do much more than mention stealing honey for herself and musing about whether Dr. Jenkel's ripping off people again. She's also only out during the nigh- I've been trying to get this to work since last night, and she was at the Ranch during daylight hours. Either way, that's not helping with the sliggoo guards...

I've already done that so many times now, and the result is always the same. Goomink still gives me the Red treatment, the sliggoo still call me stinky (and go on about permission), and Ben continues to not be in the village in the slightest. R.I.P.

Okay, so I'm getting a bit frustrated with trying to get permission to enter the castle in the Goomink sidequest. I have a full set of five inkay and the snorlax from the Ranch's questline, and tested to see if the time of day had a role to play here like it did with the cattle abduction portion (and it seems the answer is no). Neither the Honec Woods nor the Kingdom itself are giving me any other leads, either. Does anyone know of any other leads I could use to continue this quest?

The Leafeon Crest is on the third floor of the Labrynth. As luck would have it, it and the Glaceon Crest are the only ones on that floor, so there's a slightly higher chance that first one you find will be the one you want compared to the previous floors.

No, I'm fairly certain that garbodor was something Melia herself made. I doubt Jenner even knew existed, while the garbodor itself is known to go out of its way to try and protect Melia whenever it can. On the other hand, I personally interpreted that sequence as the garbodor getting hungry shortly after its "birth" and not wanting to eat its "siblings", and given that no humans in the room had any inkling that there even was a plot to be looking for hints on at the time, it's only reasonable to assume that Melia had a similar theory. It's so easy to "not catch a hint" when you aren't aware there even are any to be caught, after all.

Matrix Shot, if I remember correctly, is basically a Rock Typed Psyshock. That said, I don't remember if it was Physical into Special, or vice versa... Whoops.

I don't believe that any pokemon is Shiny Locked in this game- anything can come up with those satisfying sparkles! You're just having a bout of mediocre luck at the moment- just because shinies are more common here than they are in the main games doesn't mean you won't have work for them from time to time.

Why would a realm dedicated to the enjoyment of RPGs filled with magical pocket-sized creatures poke fun of people for liking said RPGs with magical pocket-sized creatures? That'd be hypocritical, and more than a little rude! Yes, I do believe that you'll be safe from that particular umbrella of negativity within these unhallowed walls. Anyway, welcome to the cooky ol' place we call the Reborn Evolved Forums! Be sure to read up on the rules, feel free to check out all we have to offer, and above all else, please enjoy your stay~!

There's a collection of about 33 items known as "Crests", each one tied to a specific species of pokemon and providing some sort of buff to the wielder. The Dusknoir Crest, for example, slight'y increases the wielder's Attack stat and gives it the benefits of the Technician Ability, while the Fearow Crest forces all of its attacks to be Critical Hits (and thus benefiting from the Sniper Ability) if the target is already injured. I think this fits into what you're looking for?
