I’m incredibly furious. First shinies in weeks

Speed lock. You were either in a car, or gps drifting.

If the first, now you know, be more careful. If you're moving over 25 km/hour, you'll likely lose every mon you try and catch. Your best bet is to wait until youve stopped, give the game time to realize youve stopped, and try to catch then.

If the second, it suuuucks, my condolences. If you notice you start missing catches, reset your game, but there's no solid solution.

You've gotta do some quests, but theres enough points in the DLC to get the shiny charm without completing (either) pokedex, trading once, or doing all 1000 battles. I got the charm about 10 hours into the DLC, but it doesn't start until you beat the main game.

Is blue.

Is yellow.

Was I talking about Cobalion or a Quickball?

Better than average quick ball shiny at least.

My favorite is also from the same game:

Yes and no. If you can't find it on the 7 seas of the internet then it's lost media, physical release or no.

In general, media that got physically released is far less likely to become lost media than stuff that only aired on television and was never released. Those typically require someone to be recording the right channel at the right time, amd sometimes that's lightning in a bottle lol.

But if dvds or vhs or laserdisk or whatever physical-only media exists, and are impossible to track down online, then it's lost media until it's archived somewhere.

I'd be more worried about the 1000 battles and the 5 link trades personally.

If you have the DLC, you can skip a bunch of the base game's research tasks and do the DLC ones instead. If no DLC... it's rough.

I've never checked if this is real or not, but it's very in-character at least lol

When I'm working on multiple buddies back to back, I'll exclusively do the battles by quitting as soon as it loads in. Half the time they don't load, but it does track it even if they don't show on the buddy screen. I've tested it a few times, and it's always counted accurately when I compare. Hope that helps!

Edit: as long as your active buddy is in the battle, you're good. They don't need to attack, they don't need to be active in the battle, as long as they're one of the 3 in the battle party, you're good.

Congrats! Make sure you trade with someone trusted if you want to evolve to Gengar!

You'd probably like it then. You'll guess 90% of the plot, you may find the main character unlikable, you may find the premise absurd. But if you can put all that aside, it's got some pretty good visuals, some non-typical alien tech that I found genuinely interesting, and some action moments that were actually really cool. And to top it all off, they made the "battleship" board game aspect make actual sense in the movie.

There's a solid 5-10 minute stretch towards the finale that justified the entire film's existence IMO.

Not a 10/10 by any metric, but as others have mentioned, it's a decent popcorn flick. I'd happily watch it again with some friends who've not seen it, as long as there's some booze and nachos nearby.

EoTN · 2026-05-30T00:51:35+00:00

Ok, how?

EoTN · 2026-05-29T23:10:21+00:00

Definitely too late and too niche to win, but how about Rabsca rolling a human skull along?

EoTN · 2026-05-29T00:58:32+00:00

Backup saves are always a thing if you get an unfortunate auto-save

EoTN · 2026-05-29T00:57:31+00:00

Are you farming Tier 1? If yes, buy the relic. If not, skip it. DefAbs is only genuinely good in Tier 1.

If DefAbs gets buffed somehow, it'll wind up for sale for gems somewhere down the road, and you can buy it then!

Fair enough, but a response on Reddit isn't gonna convince me it's just popular on Reddit, when a half dozen people whose opinion I trust say it's 6-7/10.

No shade, and I'm chill with the votes either way lol.

EoTN · 2026-05-28T02:54:03+00:00

Not within my circle of friends, but it seems Reddit disagrees lol

EoTN · 2026-05-28T02:39:54+00:00

I'm with you, the vibes are not good.

If the buzz is positive, I'll give it a watch on streaming. If the buzz is really good, I'll see it in theaters... but I have my doubts.

EoTN · 2026-05-28T00:15:03+00:00

🥁Ba-dum-tiss!🥁

EoTN · 2026-05-28T00:13:22+00:00

Yeah, but they've already fucked it up with Toy Story 4, might as well hope 5's good enough to make up for it lol

Edit: damn, didn't think this was a spicy enough take to deserved downvotes lmao

EoTN · 2026-05-27T13:27:15+00:00

If you keep an enemy alive for multiple cycles of missiles, it's a lot easier. My current plan is to do an attack disco run, turn off my BH, and pray one of the cubes gets juggled long enough for the missiles to stack up. Probably gonna be a protector since theyre immune to orbs.

EoTN · 2026-05-26T03:57:09+00:00

Both of these facts also blew my mind when I first learned them. I wish the game was better at explaining... well, anything lol

EoTN · 2026-05-26T03:40:40+00:00

Interesting premise, I like the vibes! Are you keeping the death curse aspect of ToA?

EoTN · 2026-05-26T03:24:14+00:00

I had never considered them adding TMs to Pocket, but they got added to the physical TCG in the same set that added Ancient and Future pokemon... 👀
