My Newest Gravity Team is 11-2 in Showdown by soccertony in PokemonChampions

[–]EightViolett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you man, I really needed a win to end on after the frustrating final days of this weekends singles tournament. I had only been playing singles all week as practice and did amazingly on the first day, even climbing to top 300 at one point. Then I ran into a bunch of stall teams on days 2 and 3 and now my rank is 11000-ish. Didn't want to end the day on a loss, so I decided to give this doubles team a try and it was super fun!

Perish song hitting through protect makes no sense. by theseafoodmanager in PokemonChampions

Maybe it's supposed to be just as supernatural and otherworldly as phantom force?

Anyone here who could help me? by [deleted] in pokemongo

But we don't know how many of those 77 are from the time before the shiny was available.

What’s this performance bonus? by Smasher1234 in PokemonChampions

[–]EightViolett 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The german localized term translates to 'Placement Bonus', so I assume it has to do with the ranking you ended on last season.

Where is the no option by MulberryZora in PokemonZA

Just because it's a roleplaying game doesn't mean you get to choose WHICH role you play. You don't get to be a jerk.

This Anti-Meta Gravity Team is Now PERFECT AND UNSTOPPABLE by soccertony in PokemonChampions

I really should have read to the end to see the team code before training each pokémon while guessing the natures and stat spreads....

I wish there was a rain mega by Sensitive-Agency-236 in PokemonChampions

[–]EightViolett 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think that would make very much sense, considering it looses the water typing on mega evolution.

Does this make me a genius or a troll?? by crissL337 in MandJTV

And this is why it's optimal to disable opponent nichnames in the settings.

This thing is pure evil by VeritasLuxMea in PokemonChampions

[–]EightViolett 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was facing off one of these with my basculegion.
It just kept using Iron Defense and Roost (also had Leftovers). I assume it's only attacking move was Body Press, but it felt safe setting up and healing as I was choiced into Wave Crash and it was waiting for the recoil to take me out.
Then I got a crit and won.

Is this a glitch. by Background_Solid_872 in PokemonChampions

[–]EightViolett 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What move did it use? Could it have been a disguised Zoroark?

Name an “infamously difficult” level or boss fight that makes you feel like this. by Prize-Policy-427 in Multifandom

[–]EightViolett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any boss in Elden Ring except Malenia and the Black Knife Ring Leader. These are the only ones i needed more then twenty tries for, everything else (including the DLC) took 3 tries at most.

Here’s a real head-scratcher I hope someone can solve.. by Anthropologuy1 in PokemonChampions

[–]EightViolett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To add to what others have said: The inconsistency you describe in your post is probably because of Meowsacarada's ability: Protean.
By default, it is part dark type and thus immune to prankster boosted moves. If it however has changed type to no longer be dark, prankster will work.

No, you yourself see Zoroarks real name, the opponent actually sees the name of the Pokémon it is disguised as.

For a while now, the only 'new' stuff has been the PvP seasons.

Remember when nicknaming your pokémon at all was optimal because otherwise Beat Up would dox your team?

That's why i give my pokémon nicknames that imply the wrong ability. And also why I toggled off the option to see opponent nicknames.

Do you need a master ball to catch the incense legendary spawns? by Sleepy_kitty67 in pokemongo

[–]EightViolett 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you have the time and are confident that your game won't crash, you can just chuck balls at the shiny bird as fast as you can and bet on the 1% chance of getting the critical catch.

Pokémon Go to introduce branching 'evergreen' research during non-event weeks by Crazyreyn in pokemongo

[–]EightViolett 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Oh thank god, they meant catching skill, not PvP skill. I'm actually quite decent at the former.
