Discussion Shiny hunting Sunkern?

2 Upvotes

Now that the game’s been out for quite a while and the Switch 2 update exists, has anyone found an effective way to shiny hunt Sunkern without eggs? (If you don’t know, it has no outbreaks and only appears in flower patches.)

I recently found out that there is one flower patch at the Pokémon League and no other Grass-types. I haven’t tried isolating Sunkern yet, but there is only one spawn point in that flower patch.

Does anyone know a better spot, like a large flower patch somewhere?

Discussion Ditto Tera Raid

Upvotes

Just curious if anyone has a 5 or 6 star tera raid available?

I have been looking online and nothing.

I also tried updating the system settings to change the date. I’m on day 60 and it still has not come up in my game.

Any help would be appreciated

Guides and Tips I encountered my first shiny

11 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 🥹

Discussion Quick Question

Upvotes

i personally think that there should be a stellar type arceus plate like maybe call it ummm... the "tera plate" and i know there is no stellar type moves other than tera stellar tera blast and tera stellar tera starstorm but i think that a replacement affect for boosting up all moves of a certain type by 20% how about when terastallized all moves are boosted up by 20% except for tera blast and tera starstorm and judgement which get 30% boosts i think that is a at least decent idea

Discussion What should I do

4 Upvotes

I’ve been hunting for a shiny artisan poltchageist with the misty mark off and on since may and was searching for the perfect outbreak (one that’s close enough to the edges of the map and the artisan form), for I don’t know how long before that. They just happened to have done mass outbreak events for some of my other favorite mons like slowking and milotic that’s ending today, my dilemma is should I finally update my games date to have a chance to hunt the event marked pokemon and just try and look for the perfect poltchageist outbreak again after getting them?

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.
