(14.5) The Great Mega Stone Hunt!

[CURIE]

Case closed, we found them all.

Banetteite:

In Ametrine City, there's this girl that blocks your way to the peak for part of the story, claiming she lost her necklace or something. After you progress the story a bit, she finds it and changes locations. You'll now see her in one of the houses, complaining that the charm on her necklace makes her feel bad or something. If you have a Flower Charm with you, she'll offer to trade her necklace for it. Surprise, the charm on her necklace is a Banetteite.

Heracronite:

Remember Nyu? The guy in North Adventurine woods who made the PC, and gives you honey when you give him Ice Cream? Well, if you give him the super rare Blue Moon Ice Cream, he'll give you your choice of Heracrossite or Pinsirite. Make sure it's the ONLY kind of Ice Cream or Candy in your bag, deposit all other types into the PC otherwise it may or may not work. Afterwards, he'll give you your choice in Mega Stone for any type of Ice Cream, so don't worry, you don't need 2 Blue Moons to get both. On the downside, you'll lose the ability to get Honey from him. You can still buy it from the flower shop in Lapis Ward, though. How to get Blue Moon Ice Cream, you ask? Well, it will very rarely be sold by ice cream vendors (talk to one of them, enter their shop menu, exit it, repeat over and over, and eventually the menu will have it). However, when they do sell it, it's very expensive. To get it for free, you can find it via pickup between levels 31 and 70. It's only a 1% chance though.

Pinsirite:

Well, see above.

[Simon]

Man, I'm stumped. I'll pick up tomorrow I suppose. Explored every region so far up to Route 2, no luck yet.

[Commander]

I'm going to fly solo for a little bit. I'll tell you guys if I find anything.

[Guzam]

Ok here's a link to the new ladder (at least i think) http://prntscr.com/6arcer

How do we get there?

That's been a thing ever since, well, when we could get to that area.

I actually have a theory that it's part of the area we'll explore in episode 15, when we go down that waterfall. Keep in mind that's underneath the grand staircase, and what's right next to the staircase?

But since it's episode 15, and not 14.5, it's not what we're looking for.

[Guzam]

So it was all for not then :[ I am going to give up on this hunt soon, like uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[Commander]

I've tried looking in every nook and cranny from Agate to Ametrine, but it doesn't seem like there's a second one in the newer areas. I'll try the Apophyll region tomorrow.

[Gaunt]

The Order of Helix would be too easy i think...but maybe she'll add them in ep 15?

[snowshoes1818]

Just out of curiosity, does anything happen if you beat the guy with the new Rayquaza just outside the grand hall in Reborn City?

[Simon]

Nothing out of the ordinary occurs just the honor defeating the op muthafu...

Amethyst said she forgot to remove as well as the Typloshion w/ Energy Ball so it wasn't intentionally placed there so yea. Do not worry about it though, it should be only a one-time deal facing that monster.

Wait... huh?

[Simon]

Jan, check this out -> http://prntscr.com/6ao4tg

OT: I was originally thinking that maybe some of the stones were possibly put in Mining since none of us seem able to find it yet, but I don't think it is the case :l

[aspectoflife]

Where do you download the 14.5?

Edited February 28, 2015 by aspectoflife

[snowshoes1818]

@ Jan -- Yeah, shock of my life. A level four Patrat... used protect twice on it and then straight into Rayquaza.

I keep starting new games rather than finishing 'em and so don't have anything that can take him out.

But curious as to whether anything might be initiated from there.

EDIT: Thanks! Appreciate the verification.

I've noticed that there have been a couple little changes such as the door is now gone in Coral Ward. We might have to look hard because it could also be hidden behind something like how that one building in Beryl Ward used to be. (Also, check book cases just in case).

The door has been gone ever since episode 10.5 iiirc

Could've sworn it was still there in at least 13 (it was just locked). This isn't the time to be arguing about that though. I'm actually trying to find where Eagleby quoted Ame from just to make sure this isn't a wasted effort. Can't find it anywhere though.

The quote is from the Episode 14.5 Discussion thread. You can also click on the little arrow icon in the upper right corner of any quote to redirect to the quote.

[Amethyst]

confirming a 'couple' is 2. 3 total presently.

goddamnit woman stop teasing us.

make me.

besides, i already gave you all a pretty good hint on how to find them. that's all you're gettin' from me.

[Qaaz]

More than ever I think the stones are in game but not accesible yet like the Dratini

They need some Waterfall/Dive on Ametrine (like Slowbronite for example) or something like that

[Gaunt]

So hints....the only things i can think of are the words "couple" and "luck" (from her posts) now "luck" might refer to the Onyx Arcade or the Circus but "couple"? Maybe it refers to all the places we "visited" while "coupled" with another trainer? The Meteor Factory or Pyrous Mountain for example...ahh i really don't know...time to do another sweep of the game

Probably its now a prize of the lottery?

You can either get the Pinsirite or Heracronite by giving Nyu blue moon ice cream to eat.

Oh, nice! only one? so there should be another event with the other Mega Stone that u don't choise?

[Helia]

I wanted to explore Apophyl cave, that one to the north...

But i oops'd and done goofed up with the download. My feeling says there tho

[Knight_Teutonic]

Just got all the new mega stones. You need two blue moon ice creams and give them to nyu like the other guy said. This process can be repeated over and over.

For the stones, thanks Ame.
