Samezuka Posted December 28, 2016 Report Share Posted December 28, 2016 Anyone playing the game? You may wish to share things like: - What are your thoughts about it? (i.e. the region, difficulty level... etc) - Which is your favorite moment? - What do you find most challenging - Post and share your team photo ..... you get the drift, anything and everything about the game I really love the OST, especially the one when you cam with professor kukui at the very beginning. I have completed the main game, and really like the new idea of being the very first champion of Alola region, in addition to getting to defend your champion title at the league XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaylen Posted December 28, 2016 Report Share Posted December 28, 2016 Finished elite 4 a couple of weeks ago and just collected all the ultra beasts. Thought that the post games are not as good as Pokemon ORAS. My Team? Primarina, Muk, Oricorio (electric version), Salazzle, Dragon Exeggutor and Kommo-O. Will try to catch the other legendaries now and fight Red/Blue. Yes, I agree with you that the idea of being the first champion is a good one. Wish he could do more as champion.

You can actually battle challengers taking on the league too as the champion. Battle through the elite 4 again, then wait in your throne and there will be a challenger to battle you. 1st challenger will be your rival Hau. Pretty interesting as it is a role reversal in comparison to previous games, you actually attain the title first before your rival. Im reluctant to catch all the ultra beasts as id like to harvest as many beast balls as I can and use them to catch regular pokemon lol. You can find red/blue in the battle tree. There will be a welcome battle from them when you reach so be prepared, after that you can battle him for real after a streak of 19 consecutive wins there. A word of caution, the AI is pretty despicable and will formulate teams that specially counter yours. They will also spam moves that boosts evasion and utilize Z moves/mega evolution.

Hmm but why do you want to use the beast ball to catch regular Pokémon? It's just as good as using a normal poké ball though. But anyway, I still left 43 beast balls after catching all the ultra beasts (it's very easy to catch ultra beast with beast ball, just generally need only one when the health is red). Anyway, for me the most challenging part of the game (other than battle tree, since I don't play that) is to hunt for Weather S.O.S. Pokémon, especially Castform (took me a few days to hunt the first one)... Edited December 29, 2016 by orionmiz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However I like the ball design, and animation when the pokemon is released from it. Actually thinking of holding a blowing wind giveaway. Which pokemon would you guys like the most? It can be legendarys or ones with hidden abilities and any items. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nusguy22 Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 When I started, I thought to myself, maybe I should catch all the pokemons out there, but seeing how some pokemon needs to be chained, nope, not anymore. Lol, but its a good game. Still taking my time to slowly finish it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leanmatt Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 Im only halfway through the game (i think). Its a good nostalgic game for me since I have not played any pokemon games since the gameboy era. I like the much improved interface and animation.

Yes I loved the SOS chains, in fact the most memorable moment for me was chaining for a beldum during xmas eve while having dinner. It turned out to be a perfect 5iv with appropriate nature, and subsequently won me many battles online + battle tree. Would you like a lvl 100 smeargle with moveset for SOS chaining?

nusguy22 Posted January 4, 2017 Report Share Posted January 4, 2017 Really impressed that there is a pokemon community in here that is so into pokemon video game. Would really like to get into competitive pokemon battling, but training/finding the perfect IV/EVs is a tad too boring for me to do so. The most I can do is just watch VGC on youtube and be amazed by the meta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callmetheo Posted January 5, 2017 Report Share Posted January 5, 2017 I completed the game a few weeks ago too.

Silverus Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 yea, leveling is harder in sm compared to oras, due to no more secret base and only 1 lucky egg per game i wonder if its worth it to level up pokemon via pelago, but feel that it would take very long =\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
