Yeah once you beat Ciel and can utilize fly, then you can go back and do the data chip. Sorry it’s probably not the answer you’re wanting... Good luck on Ciel btw, she can be one of the hardest time of Gym leaders for some people.

Okay, So I have done a lot of thinking on this... I ended up keeping Magnezone on the team. He really has been a key player for me all the way back to right before Shade and his flash cannon is just too good to pass up. That being said, he is set in stone. Jynx, I have been on the fence with. Her special attack is decent and she has pretty good speed. I did however find Sneasel, and Weavile is my favorite Pokemon... So I am thinking I will end up utilizing Weavile as my Ice mon (helps with the dragons and flyers, plus the dark typing will help against psychic and ghost). Also because of the Dark typing I would rather not go for Krookodile. In regards to being weak against fighting, my Aerodactyl (which I already subbed in) pretty much one shots any of them with Fly. Its a Jolly nature too, so far nothing has been able to outspeed it. One thing though that I have noticed is that my team is short on special attackers, aside from Magnezone... I am having a really hard time picking one that I like. Chandelure is a fantastic option, but I see a lot of people running them on their team, friends of mine included, and I would love to try something a little different. I was thinking perhaps Roserade? I would get the poison typing with it and the ability to use moves like dazzling gleam, toxic spikes, and leech seed. All of that being said, I will say I think it will be a challenge to not have a solid fire type pokemon on the team. I am currently stuck at the Titania fight and having a fire pokemon would really really help with this. I may just keep Rapidash in rotation, but not on the main team? How often are fire types useful after Titania?

Hello and thanks for some of the tips! I currently do not have access to an infernape, at least I dont think I do... Also, would you say that Kingdra is not the best choice for a water type? I like that the stats are well rounded so it can use both physical and special moves, making good use of surf and either dive/waterfall as needed. That in addition to dragon dance could make it a potent sweeper for this game. I definitely think I will be keeping the smoochum I got and evolving it for that last slot. I have been going back and forth a lot on whether to keep magnezone as he is so great, but I do fear about not having a good ground type. That being said, I really do not care for many of the other ground type pokemon other than my rhyperior, steelix, and the Nidos. My only worry is that the nidos tend to not learn ground type moves by leveling up so that means a lack of earthquake which kind of sucks. The only ground move I have is bulldoze which is okay, but certainly not the best. I What do you think about if I went for a hippowdon that has the sand stream ability? It would give me a weather changing ability to save the use of a move, the sandstorm wont affect half my team due to the steel and rock types of Magnezone and Aerodactyl, plus I'd get an earthquaker! I think I like this idea. Let me know what you think!

Hey everyone, So I just beat Adrienn and I am thinking about re-vamping up my team some. I'll post below my current team and then the team I intend to run. Let me know some of your ideas! Current Team: Feraligatr- Sheer Force (Debating subbing in Kingdra here. Ideally looking for something that can surf and waterfall effectively. Let me know of any other good water types in mind) Ice Punch Waterfall Crunch Dive Braviary- Defiant (Plan on swapping out for Aerodactyl) Fly Aerial Ace Superpower Slash Rhyperior- Rock Hard (Due to Aerodactyl's rock typing, I will be switching out for Steelix) Earthquake Stone Edge Return Megahorn Magnezone- Sturdy (Due to Steelix's Steel typing I will be switching out for Galvantula) Discharge Metal Sound Flash Cannon Magnet Rise Rapidash- Flame Body (Maybe keeping? I'm not sure, the longer the story has progressed, the more niche he has become making him less useful in a general sense) Strength Flame Charge Fire Blast Megahorn Vivillon- Compound Eyes (Because I will be having Aerodactyl as my flyer, and probably Galvantula as my Bug, this slot will be open. I am thinking of utilizing Jynx for typing) Sleep Powder Quiver Dance Hurricane Bug Buzz So that is my team with the notes on the substitutions I have in mind. Please let me know what thoughts you have and any advice that may be worth my while! Also, I am aware that the current team has a lot of holes, so please keep the critiques and constructive criticism about the changes as opposed to what I already have! Thanks

THANK YOU

Hey everyone, so this may seem a little odd, but I really don't like using anything other than the classic Pokeball. I noticed after beating Ciel, all the shops sell are Ultra Balls. Does anyone know where I can find just the regular old Pokeball at this point in the game. Also I am playing on Episode 17 Rust Thicker Than Water.
