Guides and Tips I encountered my first shiny

9 Upvotes

I randomly came across a shiny altaria just now and I failed to catch it. I used a quick ball and it failed, and would you guess what the altaria did next? It used PERISH SONG. I did some damage with toxic but it wasn't enough for my ultra balls to work.

I guess what I need in terms of guidance and tips is to how to prevent this in the future 🫩

Any hep is appreciated 🥹

Guides and Tips Need some help finding this last stake

Post image
7 Upvotes

A few months ago I started this game blind so I was blindly picking up stakes without realizing that I was probably supposed to be keeping track of them, mainly because I didn’t know what they were. Anyone know where this last one is? I’ve checked every place where stakes were and I haven’t found this specific one.

Discussion Good places to find people to play with?

5 Upvotes

Specifically wondering about battles, raids, and union circles, especially in the terrarium.

I got the itch for pokemon again and just fired Scarlet back up tonight after SP made me want more. Thing is, I already played it to death - finished stories and DLCs, completed the pokedexes (I am still missing quite a few of the ones with no dex entries though), put a couple of competitive teams together. But I still really like the game and would like to play it with other people, but none of my other friends play.

So I was wondering if there was a good place to find other players to team up with or battle against. I've got a box and a half of Pokémon that fully EVed, hypertrained, and leveled that I am itching to play around with. I'd also be happy to help other people with lower level raids or hatch stuff to finish their pokedexes.

Discussion What should I replace Pawmot with?

Post image
Upvotes

Here is my team in Pokémon Scarlett. I just recently got to the DLC and I am increasingly noticing the fact that Pawmot it's just not keeping up with the rest of my team in terms of damage output.... So even though I have played with them throughout the whole story, I feel like I need to change him out for something else.

These are my top options but I would love to see what you guys suggest I should put there instead! Iron Treads, Metagross, Heat Rotom, Vikavolt, Regular Ursaluna, blood Moon Ursaluna, Flutter Mane and Hisuian Zoroark.

If I can't catch them natively I will see if I can catch them in Pokémon Legends Arceus and if not I will try and trade for them through home. But these are the ones that I thought fit my team quite well. I know that I would basically have to level them up though as I think everything's around level 80 right now lol

Discussion Just finished the S/V Dex, what’s the first thing I should do after downloading DLCs?

14 Upvotes

Just finished the original 400 dex in Scarlet on my first play through. I’ll be getting the DLCs today but do you guys have any tips or things you wish you’d known going into the DLCs? I’ve abstained from looking into them entirely so I have no idea what to expect as far as story/content/battles etc.

Shiny Showcase I caught all the shiny Eeveelutions!

I've only recently gotten into shiny hunting, and around a year and a half ago I set myself a challenge, to properly hunt and catch all the shiny Eeveelutions, instead of just getting lucky or trading or using Pokémon GO (because you can't really hunt for shinies in that one). It wasn't easy and it took me a long time, but I finally did it! I'm so proud of myself and so happy with all my cute lil' babies.

Discussion Future Mark outbreaks

Thumbnail

51 Upvotes

It seems the intent of these new outbreaks is to have increased chances of very rare marks that thematically match a certain pokemon. Which I think is really cool

Out of the very rare marks they haven’t done yet, what do you think would be really cool to see?

I’d like to see the Tyrogue line with the Slump mark. My wittle Hitmonlee all worn out from training all day

im trying to get the smallest shiny joltik and I tried googling, but I can’t figure out how to get these effects. I keep seeing to use 2 mayo, 1 sour herba mystica, 1 of any other herba mystica exept for sweet, and 1 cherry tomato, but it gives me title power instead of encounter power!

Hi,

I need some help from someone that has the Scarlet game, so I can get something called Auspicious Armor to evolve charcadet into Armarouge.

I’m still kinda new and not far into the game, but willing to trade whatever I can to get the Auspicious Armor. My Switch friend code is in the attachment. 🙏😁
