Playing Pokemon moon makes me feel like I have jeg lag. The time shift is very strange.

Great, thanks! In case you missed it earlier in the thread, my FC is 4356-4257-4083 || Glork

Remember that only the shop immediately to the right of your castle is the one you share with other people. If you could move the 2* Treasure Hunt there, that'd be amazing. Then I just need to be online with you for a second to add you as a VIP.

Appreciate it!

Nice little website finds your favourite Pokémon (it's a bit slow to number 1, but after that the list grows fairly quickly)

My top 20 - fairly accurate to what I'd believe my top 20 to be.

My top 25 (Without Gen VII, damn, I really should play it someday)
So, apparently, Gen IV is my favorite with 10 of my top 25.
Also, I didn't expect Dewott to be so high up. I never realized just how badass-looking he is.
Also, Riolu wouldn't have stood a chance if it wasn't for that one Trackmania player who named himself after it.

And top 54 because that's how far I got before it started doing choices of 5 Pokémon again with 20 until my next favourite.

Yeah the first Pokémon takes like 20 minutes to get

But after that it's all 1v1s taking 1-5 rounds to the next Pokémon until around #50

BTW, I have pages and pages of Salandit & Vulpix breedjects if anyone wants any. Piles of them with 3-5 perfect IVs, Timid nature, and most of the Vulpix ones have Snow Warning, too.

I don't really care for anything in exchange, happy to give them away (although I wouldn't say no to other people's breedjects, as it would help me save some time, too).

Glork's post reminded me: If anyone is having trouble acquiring a particular breedable Pokemon let me know. I can't guarantee good IVs but if it can be bred I can breed it.

I'm slowly going and catching every pokemon that can be caought in Moon. I did the same for Y and while I have all the breedables, I find trudging though the land hunting for pokemon to be very fun.

catching them all is too easy when the gts is fair game
a few weeks ago (over thanksgiving break?) i finished the hoenn pokedex in oras, and now the process seems so mechanical that i can't motivate myself to go on and finish the national
it feels like playing pokemon go

a lot of goals — their charm comes from wondering if you can really pull them off
when the process is laid out in front of you, in a manner that makes it simple, you really start to wonder if you'd be better off doing something more interesting

at least competitive is still hard

I suppose I should figure out how pokemon breeding works, since I've never done that in any game.
One time, back in 'nam, Sudo was set upon by an entire squadron of charlies. He challenged them all to a game of Pictionary, which he won resoundingly. The charlies were forced to not only surrender the skirmish, but also their world-famous chili recipe, which Sudo sold to Texas for a hefty profit. Sudo is a master of diplomacy.

I know you can't breed Ditto but if anyone happens to have a Ditto with a Rash or Relaxed nature I would really appreciate it because I have a Ditto with every other useful nature apart from those two and yet since I reached that point I haven't found a single Ditto of those natures in the last 30 Ditto.

if you lead with a pokemon with synchronize, all wild encounters have a 50% chance of having the same nature as the synchronizer

You can get a second Cosmog by visiting the Altar of the Sunne/Moone with your version's main legendary, travelling through the wormhole and then going to the thing on the Lake of the Moone/Sunne with it still in your party. Level it up and then trade it to someone with the other game so they can evolve it, and then trade it back.

Use a Net Ball with Kyogre because they're great against water types
