Pokemon General [SFW, No NSFW]

Why does every Max Raid Battle that I want to attend always have those goddamn link codes?! Its like they’re deliberately trying to fuck with me!
 
In other news, I just finished the Diglett Hunting side quest on the Isle of Armor. I’m probably the only person on this thread who has accomplished it.
 
Also, I’ve acquired another legendary through a Surprise Trade. This time a Tornadus.

@Red-Supernova
 
People can be selfish, sometimes. Or just want to have friends join.
 
Good for you.
 
Congrats.

@Red-Supernova  
Link codes? Are they trying to instantly trade afterwards?
 
I’m not sure how Raid battles work.  
Who gets the capture?

So cute

@Red-Supernova  
I did the Diglett thing too. So there are at least two of us.

Anyone shiny hunting the Max Lair or Regis/SoJ?  
If so, how’s it going so far?

@Any Pony  
I actually got a shiny Regieleki way under odds. I didn’t count the resets but it was “only” something like two and a half to three hours, which, in terms of shiny hunting isn’t bad at all.

@Dirty Bit  
I have no idea why some people would want to make Reddit threads or Discord shoutouts to raids that could potentially end up with someone failing to catch the Pokémon in the end.
 
@Sparx  
No, but it is like setting up an online lobby room for trading or battling.
 
Four players battle a huge Pokémon together. Once its HP is depleted, every player has the option to catch a copy of the Pokémon. Even though it shows just you catching it, every player can do so.
 
@pixel  
Awesome. Gonna raise that Alolan Diglett?
 
@pixel  
Awesome work. Even though it was a traded Pokémon I still can’t believe I got a shiny Regidrago.

@Red-Supernova  
To make life easier on their fellow trainers. It’s like Dark Souls where since everyone suffers, some are more than willing to ease the suffering of other players.

@Meanlucario  
Um, which of my responses is your statement related to?

@Red-Supernova  
First one.

@Meanlucario  
Ok, but why can’t they allow total strangers for those raids? Most players know to go in with the right Pokémon.

@Red-Supernova  
If it’s more organized, than it’s a better chance of having a suitable team that can tackle anything the game throws at you.

Today is the six year anniversary of Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire and the eighteen year anniversary of Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire. I consider Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire to be my favorite Hoenn game and it’s my second favorite Pokémon game.

@Meanlucario
 
Cinderace yes
 
Classic

@Shepherd
 
Did Allister just yeet his Yamask?

@Dirty Bit  
Organics make the best throw weapon.

@Meanlucario  
Meh, I just wish I would stop seeing it so often on the raids I want to participate in.
 
@ShadowBolt Platinum  
Goddamn, six years already? Also OR/AS is my favorite Hoenn game too. But I wonder what most of the fanbase still thinks about it?

Has anybody here heard of Machamps.com?

@Red-Supernova  
Sounds NSFW.
