Really looking forward to snagging a Jangmo-o of my own! Hopefully level grinding won't be a huge pain in the ass (especially since, apparently, you don't get the Lucky Egg until the postgame).

They're nestled away in a little secret spot full of grass in the Vast Poni Canyon, and apparently a rare encounter. But they're up in the 40's and don't take many levels to become a Kommo-o.

Level grinding isn't too bad if you go after trainers, though I've found it to be a bit tedious to level grind on wild Poke'mon. But that's how it usually is, though it doesn't feel as bad as it has in past games; at least not yet. Could get more annoying when my team gets to higher levels since I'm not sure how high a level wild Poke'mon will get before I hit postgame.
 
I have a bunch of Popplios and Totodiles (two females of each) that I'm willing to trade for other starters, like Rowlet or Litten.

I'm also looking for a Dratini. I'm in the process of breeding my male Sylveon to my female Popplio.

Male Primarina with Ditto (all Popplio):
Bashful, docile, impish, bold, lonely, relaxed, hardy – male
Timid - female

Male Totodile with Female Popplio (all Popplio):
Impish, Quirky, Adamant, Timid, Quiet, Lax – male
Bold - female

Male Totodile with Ditto:
Rash, hasty, lonely, relaxed, quirky, bashful – male
Naughty, quirky – female

I'm willing to trade away one female Popplio and one female Totodile as it stands.

Successfully beat the Elite 4, using the same team I posted on page 97. Now to explore all of the postgame stuff, also currently have 70/95 Zygarde Cells and 5/5 Zygarde Cores, most of the ones I'm missing are either in the postgame areas or Daytime only since I'm playing Moon.
 
Goddamn Totem Lurantis was a pain in the ass, reminded me of Whitney's Miltank.

Also I haven't been able to find a single Rockruff so far. Any particularly good spots?

I got mine at Farthest Hollow on Melemele Isle. You need the Tauros Pokeride to access Ten Carat Hill, then go through it to get there, they have a 20% encounter rate
 
I'm hearing conflicting stories about this, so I'd ask around to see whether I'd get clear answers:

A store nearby sold copies of Sun and Moon one day before the official European launch. Of course I grabbed one since otherwise I'd be driving into town just for that, but seeing those stories of Nintendo bricking consoles just because they got it early leaves me a bit wary about already playing it.

Basically, what I'm asking is if Nintendo will still brick my system even though the game has already been out in the rest of the world, seeing how most reports on this focus on the piracy angle and less on the "got it early and wasn't aware" one.
 
I wonder if the pirates in my region have created counterfeit copies that won't block out your 3Ds.

Pirates in the Carribean still exist you know.
 
> banning shit because sore losers are sore.

Off topic, but Meta Knight in Brawl was soooooo meanly attacked.
 
power construct was banned from smogon ou if you are in to that thing

Makes sense, even though at first it was scoffed that the only stat boost Complete Zygarde got was doubled base HP(and -10 Base Speed and +10 Base Special Attack) over 50% Zygarde, it was found that that's all it needed to be nigh unkillable. a set of Thousand Arrows/Rest/Sleep Talk/Coil make it really hard to take down, and very few Pokemon could wall it(For those unaware, Thousand Arrows is a 90 Power/100 Accuracy Physical Ground-type move that can hit Flying types and Levitate Pokemon, on top of knocking them down like Smack Down does. So only the underpowered Grass and Bug types resist it and nothing is immune outside of Shedinja).

20%?? Well, that explains it. I tried there but gave up too early I guess.

So /vp/ seems to think that the best way to hunt for shinies on species that rarely appear is to use an adrenaline orb to get pokemon to constantly call for help.

Also, for those of you who are unaware, pokemon under nonvolatile status effects can't call for help (I think totems still can though.) Volatile status effects seem to be a case by case basis.

I have access to all the moon version exclusives (at least I think) including but not limited to (forgive my spelling)
-Sandshrew
-Petil
-Drampaa
-Vullaby
-Oranguru
(Not the fossils yet, I have the plume fossil but have no revived it)
Still breeding popplios as well
 
That's bullshit. Have you contacted them?
It's supposed to arrive between the 25th and the 28th, as I didn't pay extra for shipping since my pre-orders have historically arrived within five days of release. If I don't have it by the time I get off work next Monday, though, I'm going to be pissed.

I almost wish that I had sucked it up and dealt with the neckbeards, weeaboos, and weirdos at GameStop.
 
Oh, and can someone clarify something about Z Moves for me? I know that a Pokemon can't use more than one Z Move per battle, but can you use multiple Z Moves using different Pokemon? Meaning that, for example, if I have my Primarina use a Z Move, will my Arcanine be able to use one too?
