  1. Where 's the bad news? I see only good news, here! What can be better than dev taking their time and polishing their work, "not cutting corners"? This is by far the best course possible. Anybody with a shred of self-control, would be happy to wait, in order to receive the good stuff in a more completed state. Just hang in there and don't collapse; work needs scedule and breaks. I am already drooling in the prospect of using Galarian forms; i will wait for Slowpoke, until which, Weezing and Sirfitch'd are more than good enough. Cheers!
  2. Apologies, i mean no disrespect. On the contrary, i love this project, it is my favorite happy-time spender (by now, i 've spent even more time playing than i did in generation 2, my favorite ever) and i have gone through it a multitude of times, without ever being bored. It's just that previous versions AI was functioning less... Buggy? Errory? More kinda "properly", or something vaguely along those lines? Sorry, i know you 're doing your best and you 're not even being paid for that, as well as the long, long hours of workload and i am VERY grateful for all of your efforts and collective end
  3. I understand the reasons behind recent AI changes, but the AI behavior is far from being the intended one. While it is perfectly normal (and desirable, even) for enemies to switch out their pokemon, many times they do that in the wrong place/situation. Even important fights like against rivals (cane in beryl cemetery), are "bugged". What i mean: a You spam one certain move, from a pokemon of a certain type (let's use Graveler as an example and its Bulldoze). Enemy switches out on you, but throws a pokemon weak against the move you 've just kept spamming, of poor typing against your
  4. Just don't blame them, too much workload. They 're always busy and word is, they now work on two games simultaneously. They are very friendly people and they actually care, even though lately they seem a bit less community-active. I still remember in ep17 i reported an error with pop up message that would appear whenever you itemsteal from a StickyHold ability pokemon and they fixed it in one day! Moves can a bit tricky, with the generation changes in the picture and whatnot. And we 're talking about ~821 pokemon, here. Unless some attention-to-detail people fave&ma
  5. Specifically the weaker moves at low health are completely misused, since the AI chooses even "not very effective" moves against your pokemon. So, not only it doesn't calculate anything in all actuality, but goes and chooses the worst possible action, as well! And if you are a "switch pokemon" player (not "set"), then you can abuse that newfound AI behavior/pattern hard; your pokemon is at low health, enemy is guaranteed to use its weakest move, you switch into something else and buy time at your leisure (healing items? stalling? whatever?)... At one point, i thought they made the game easier
  6. Will Galarian Slowpoke be released in V13? This is my favorite pokemon from galar (as well as Sirfetc'd and Obstagoon) and i would really love to train one... Spork that already added gen 8 hasn't implemented it yet and also says something like it follows Rejuvenation's development; whatever that means. Are we getting the entire gen 8 roster (minus legends/myths of course), or it is going to be implemented in chunks?
  7. I am trying the new, 18.4.1 version for a fresh new run. The game has evolved a lot and the engine is a lot smoother, plus lagless. VERY nice. AI though... I understand it changed. But it makes me scratch my head in confusion. The biggest turnoff i encountered and still is in play: 1 Enemy trainer pokemon, suddenly launch crappy moves against you, the very moment your pokemon's health drop in orange; not RED, but ORANGE. This IS a "wipeout-prevention", effectively. 9 out of 10 times i find myself in a bind, the enemy fails to finish my mon. Especially if it is well bred
  8. In some old bug reports, there are special mentions for certain pokemons encountering errors in their gen7 movepool, or a specific 1 move issue (cannot go through them, just from the top of my head). The issue i remember well, because i myself encountered it too, is that Mamoswine cannot learn Iron Head from tutor, even though it SHOULD. And there might be other mistakes revolving around certain pokemon and moves that should be learnable from them, too. This specific one about Mamoswine though, has been reported since ages ago, i am actually surprise it hasn
  9. Technician Meowth? Hustle Rattata? Shed Skin Ekans? (+1 for Goldeen)
  10. Wait for ep19. Other than the new episode content and the huge postgame content, there is going to be a ton of additions, like many more trainers to fight, both for insignificant and important battles. If you played older episodes like 16, you are going to get annoyed by certain gameplay alterations, like enemy trainers avoiding healing items, enemy pokemon using their weakest moves against you once your mon's health drops in orange and AI malfunctions, like constant purposeless switching at points. All those significantly drop the difficulty of the game, or alter the "experience"
  11. Really? Terajuma levelling = Vikavolt??? Then, Terajuma levelling = Probopass, too? Damn it, i was none the wiser... About the +1 rare and then -1 reverse candy i actually knew, since ages ago i made Floatzel evolve for an early fight that wasn't supposed to be... But i also didn't even think about it at that tight spot. Thank you, will keep notes (although Abomasnow was actually rare, i farmed hard in castle to make that Sawk ready and only 2 ever appeared). As for the jungle you 're right, after the party i also happened on a guide with local terajuma pokemon against
  12. Curse body would work, but needs revives, much more itemization to prevent wipe and repeat at least twice total. Although you take no damage from Struggle, which is nice... I got and regularly use Shuppet this play, but i went with Sawk this time. Endure works only with Struggle and not with Decimation, because the latter deals damage equal to your pokemons max HP, securing the KO and foiling all Sturdy and similar abilities, all in one go. Hmmm yes, i was lucky enough to grab an Abomasnow, but i missed Foongus and i don't know where and how to evolve Vikavolt, i can only have its
  13. Sawk got me an easy victory this time (i used to lose before), but i was wondering... FIRST QUESTION: Is there any other way to earn you a legitimate win, over this fight? Decimation is a custom move that bypasses surviving abilities, is priority and worst of all, Full Restores are being used in this game version. Also, both this area and the next with Gym Leader fight inside the jungle, although manageable, they put a great deal of pressure on you, because you are locked out of other game areas and especially Gearen (for EV training mostly) and Sheridan village (for br
  14. (Cacnea)/*Cacturne* crest! First round in battle gets the pokemon holding it the Spiky shield effect!!! Switching out then in again, can redo that... (Fennekin)/*Braixen*/(Delphox) crest! Casts Attract on opposing pokemon and succeeds, even if the gender is the same. *Kirlia*/(Gardevoir) crest! Works in a similar fashion to king's rock, with chance of flinching! *Meowth*/(Persian) crest! Functionality of Quick Claw item + Amulet Coin item + Technician ability, or effect similar to Technician ability extending to moves with 80 base power and obligatory normal
  15. I missed Alolan Meowth and the guide with Pokemon Location lists it only in that area. From what i 've been reading though, it is not revisit-able. In this run, i planned to catch all available pokemon... Am i effed?
  16. That's the ideal surroundings for a tiki bar. I feel thirsty for exotic summer coctails, even though summer is gone.
  17. Sad for the pause... But on the other hand, Starlight looks nice, interesting and promising, so wishing for its success would do. That and everybody suspected that, from those regulars in here; now it's merely worded and made official. Nobody from the true fans will nag; on the contrary, they will support you, cheer you up and wellwish for the project. I will plead you to not incorporate gen 8 though, because movelists and abilities change, reducing the fun factor a bit, even though that's nothing when compared against Gengar losing Levitate and many other previous nerfs, due to new generation
  18. I saw a new expansion coming with interesting concept, so i gave the free trial a go. I played a little bit in its early life, wasn't too fond of or hooked to it, then was severely disappointed in Cataclysm and quit. But i really liked the mechanisms up until and Wrath of the Lich King, while i hated Cataclysm changes a huge deal. Now, i found myself in Battle for Azeroth and it downright irritated me, like a big portion of other players. That level scaling is !@#$. The gameplay mechanism changes annoyed me, especially to crafting (no first aid anymore), itemization (new stats and functions, r
  19. There is an easier method. But is manually done and takes lots of time. Unless you want only few pokemon with their shiny sprite. Go to the game directory, search in folders until you find the pokemon and player pictures. See the difference between the two type of files (shiny and normal) and simply rename them. The shiny picture must end up in the same name as the normal one and vice versa.

    Zorua help

    You need to beat the leader after Corey, first. Then, visit at night time with clear weather (clean overworld), the Beryl Ward Rooftop. Next stop is the small maze in Upper Peridot ward, right next to the factory in front of which you met Fern for the first time. Finally, enter the empty house right next to Magma hideout. Beryl Ward Rooftop can also give you an electric pokemon, if you visit in day time, with sunny weather.
  21. I am interested in EP16.1 too! The AI changes dumbened down gameplay a lot. Even from 18.2, which supposedly fixed AI, i still very much prefer the behavior of 16.1! And the teambuilds of enemies in it, thereoff. I lost it, because at some point, i sent my laptop for maintenanace and the guy replaced hard drive and graphics card. Until the last version of the game is out, which is said to change everything from engine, to AI and other stuff, i would prefer the 16th episode environment by a mile. I cannot stand enemies almost never using recovery items, ralts and beldum

    Cat! Is it dignified like mine? Will it touch your nosetip with hers, or lean her cheek forward for you to kiss it?
  23. Natu on the Jungle Totem, you say? It requires: a Night time. b Clear weather c To NOT carry an Ill fated doll on you; not a single one! d It to be seen in the overworld screen, sitting atop the totem; it isn't fought like the other 3 pokemon In Citae d' Astrea, there are wild Natus too, beside Xatus. Gastly is what tortured me, beyond belief. I missed the "you should interract with cable" part and was struggling pointlessly, trying to find it there. I even thought that i momentarily, accidentally encountered it, didn't notice it r
