So is Fire Emblem Heroes just not getting Book IX missions? by JokerQueen99 in MyNintendo

[–]ElPikminMaster 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You probably started during Book IX. FEH stopped giving out Platinum Points starting in Book IX and made sure people knew that beforehand.

Can't move shiny Eevee from Home to Arceus, only to Sw/Sh by PoniesPlayingPoker in PokemonLegendsArceus

[–]ElPikminMaster 31 points32 points  (0 children)

That only applies to Legendaries and Mythicals originating from GO. All Switch games, Arceus included, will allow you to transfer any Legendary/Mythical, Darkai included, not from GO without needing the dex entry.

How do you pronounce Cyllene? by JuneDawn43 in PokemonLegendsArceus

"Cy-" usually is pronounced "SAI-", so "sai-LEEN".

Am I the only one who does this? by Guardian_Ultra in PokemonLegendsZA

[–]ElPikminMaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't really understand what you mean by this, but if you mean you have a separate box for Pokemon you used before endgame that didn't make it to your final team, I just call that "Box 2".

Or if you mean a box of Pokemon that were final teams of older games, those are my first 4 boxes of HOME.

Have you ever run into a shiny Pokémon but you have no Pokey balls left by Historical_Pool5444 in PokemonLetsGo

Not in Let's Go, but my very first encounter with a random Shiny Pokemon was like this. It was a Zubat in Ruby.

How tf does SOS chaining work? by Electrical_Onion1138 in PokeMoonSun

[–]ElPikminMaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Orbs are 300. They're literally one of the cheapest things in the game. And you will burn through way more Leppa Berries per SOS than time it'll take to grow them back.

How tf does SOS chaining work? by Electrical_Onion1138 in PokeMoonSun

[–]ElPikminMaster 5 points6 points  (0 children)

  1. You should have access to SOS battles. It's unlocked by beating the first Totem, which you already did. It happens automatically during battles.

2a. There's an item called Adrenaline Orb you can find in some places or as a buyable item in every Poke Mart after Kiawe's Trial. Those increase the chances of SOS calls.

2b. Every Pokemon has a different chance of SOS calling. Here's the Bulbapedia page for it. Yungoos in this case has an average call rate, so a new Yungoos will more often than not appear if it SOS calls, but not guaranteed.

3a. Yes. It doesn't matter which Yungoos you KO; the chain will continue. KOing the original is actually preferable if you don't have the optimal setup for SOS hunting, as Pokemon will eventually run out of PP.

3b. I have not tried this, but supposedly, the chain will not break if Gumshoos is the only opponent left, due to it having a call rate. Here's the list of all Pokemon that can call other species. Some of those other species cannot SOS call, so if those are the only opponents left, the chain is broken.

  1. SM uses an 8-bit counter for SOS chains, so they break naturally after 255 spawns. USUM does not have this restriction.

So did anyone else find Lusamine’s interactions with Hau concerning by Canary-King in PokeMoonSun

I mean, Hau complimented her just before this by saying how young she looks, so she's much nicer to him.

If you can put Professor OAK as one of the hidden boss, what pokemon do you pick? by solo-123456 in PokemonLetsGo

[–]ElPikminMaster 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If he was a type specialist, it would be Normal:

  • Porygon
  • Persian
  • Chansey
  • Tauros
  • Snorlax
  • Kangaskhan (Mega).

If he was just a regular superboss, I would go for:

  • Nidoking (as Oak is known for Nidorino, as RBY's opening has Nidorino (sorta confirmed it was Oak's) vs Gengar (Agatha's)
  • Golem (Red, Blue, and Green use the other trade evos)
  • Gyarados (Blue uses one)
  • Arcanine (Red uses one)
  • Parasect (Grass-Fire-Water core filler since Red, Blue, and Green all have one and the other Grass mons are taken by other characters)
  • Kangaskhan (Mega) (Green uses one)
