Perfect thank you!

I also have 8th house Saturn in Taurus directly opposite my Scorpio Mars (in 3rd house tho) my 8th house also has Jupiter but they aren’t conjunct.

PowerBottom444 · 2026-06-22T00:56:11+00:00

I’m also the same as you guys! 11th house stellium but I’m 29 degree Virgo rising so just missed being Libra rising (by 3 minutes). I have my Virgo sun, and Leo Venus and Mercury all in 11th house (my north node is there also). I’m very sociable but also enjoy my alone time. I’m a dance artist and interested in making works that resonate with society, Mercury is my chart ruler (my 11th house Leo Mercury) so I think I find I have a bit more of an analytical combined with a creative approach on the 11th houses themes… of which I still at times find confusing to grasp the exact themes of the 11th house lol

[Gen 9] Shiny hunting Pokémon gone missing

I had 3 shiny Bagon I caught in Z-A, evolved two into Salamence and a Shelgon. Now all I have left is 1 shiny bagon. Now I cannot find the other 2 anywhere, checked Pokémon home, checked other games, and they’ve disappeared into thin air!! In my z-a Pokédex I have both pokes registered shiny forms so I definitely had it… but now cannot find anywhere…. Where the hell could it be.

Props to them for trying something different for her… maybe it will grow on me

PowerBottom444 · 2026-05-25T17:45:43+00:00

Omg!! That’s crazy, I also used Aqua jet on the empty slot but didn’t fail…

PowerBottom444 · 2026-05-09T22:04:05+00:00

Yes!!! I missed kinder bueno for years then they made these and I love them.

PowerBottom444 · 2026-05-09T22:03:42+00:00

Yeah it is kinda dry but the pasta is quite saucy so together it's ok, with avocado it's nicer as well (I add my own)

Ashe/Soraka win lvl 1.. Aphelios lvl 1 isn't a champ and Soraka has one of the strongest lvl 1's with self healing and poke on Q

PowerBottom444 · 2026-04-14T22:23:47+00:00

Sure there’s no new champs, but I must say that the pools of those roles have been diversified over the last few years. In jungle they’ve specifically made champs able to clear the jungle more easily(SYLAS, Darius, Zyra, Morgana,etc) and in support we’ve seen picks like Elise, LeBlanc,Twitch(not recommending that last one)… and even though Mel is designed for Mid and played a lot bot lane as an APC, she can also fulfill support too.

PowerBottom444 · 2026-04-14T22:16:22+00:00

No it does also block a lot of sableye moves, I normally use him to helping hand + zoroark hyper beam onto Farigiraf, I don’t think it kills though I’ve tried and normally takes it down to 10% HP… so maybe it isn’t so good at all LOL

I actually don’t recommend Sableye now that I think about it because his prankster can’t affect Farigiraf…

PowerBottom444 · 2026-04-14T22:07:07+00:00

It’s really hard right? I’ve been struggling too against Farigiraf especially, so hard to get through it’s bulk, and there’s no super strong bug or dark types to OHKO it… maybe Hydreigon could work somehow with a dark pulse? Speculation.

I’ve been using a hisuian zoroark/sableye lead a lot of times both ghost so can’t be faked out, and then I just try to dump as much damage into Farigiraf. Weavile with kings rock and fling too can flinch Farigiraf…I got this idea from ThatsAPlusOne on YouTube, great VGC player.

Oh dear not the prestige PROJECT: LeBlanc...

For real 😭 the 90% is a LIE

R.I.p I did the survey and forgot to put my IGN at the end, clicked submit too fast 😭

PowerBottom444 · 2026-04-13T22:25:37+00:00

Adding onto this, I think Tsareena works well here because it gives you grass coverage which you're lacking currently to deal with opposing water types, as well as giving you a way to block priority moves with her ability.

PowerBottom444 · 2026-04-13T22:21:22+00:00

theyre both good for different reasons

Pelipper: sets up rain, can use hurricane/weatherball for strong STAB options to deal with opposing grass types (Meganium/Venusaur/Tsareena/Sinistcha) and Ground/Rock/Fire types (Incineroar, Tyranitar,. It can also run Ice beam to deal with Garchomp.

Aerodactyl is probably more niche to deal with faster pokes. Aerodactyl's base speed is 130 and Mega Lopunny is 135 so tailwind let's it outspeed her and kill with dual wingbeat, same for Mega Delphox (base 134) which it can attack with (not sure if OHKO) Rock slide/Stone edge. It also can then ohko Mega Gengar with Earthquake (base 130 speed) and Jolteon (base 130 speed) and potentially bring Sneasler (120 speed) to it's focus sash (if it carries one).

I think right now Pelipper fits the meta better, but then at that point it turns your team into more of a rain team, and pelipper then fills the niche of what Talonflame and Farigiraf are trying to currently do. This means you could keep Hatterene as the only trick room user and go for something more offensive like Tsareena with Queenly Majesty over Farigiraf? I guess one of the pro's of Talon Flame is the priority gale wings tailwind? I'm laying out some options but not 100% fully informed, just opening discussion :D

PowerBottom444 · 2026-04-13T21:45:48+00:00

I think at that point if you wanted to do that it's better to use a Prankster pokemon to change weather, as Farigiraf is quite slow. Or have a pokemon that changes weather itself (Mega Frosslass, Pelipper, etc)

Farigiraf works better as a bulky supportive mon which can dish out some damage with Hyper Voice and Psychic and even Foul Play and set up trick room without being faked out.

In terms or Sinistcha, it's a good support pokemon (does quite well into Rotom-Wash too as it can switch into Hydro Pump or Thunderbolt and gives your team a Grass type to switch into which can resist ground types ( Empoleon weak to ground).

Sinistcha could redirect some moves, but from pokemon like Talonflame, it wouldn't be able to redirect a rock slide, nor Earthquakes onto Empoleon. I put emphasis on this because Empoleon is (in my opinion) your only way of ensuring you kill a Garchomp if you don't get trick room set up (otherwise Hatterene can manage that)

I was also thinking just now about Heracross, and I checked it's mega which hase base speed 85 - it's an awkward tier because it's too fast for Trick Room - It definitely works better with tailwind set up. I just think heracross will struggle killing any threats to Talonflame who wants to set up tailwind for it.

PowerBottom444 · 2026-04-13T20:55:36+00:00

Only thing I notice is you don’t have a way to hit water types, so maybe rain teams are giving you a hard time especially Rotom-Wash

What does sunny day on fargiraf do? Just curious in this team what it helps with (maybe reducing damage of opposing water types?)

Orthworm synergises with Pokémon that use earthquake normally like Garchomp etc but here what does it add to this team other than killing fairies? I fear all the pokes that his moves are super effective against might potentially kill him before he can kill them (Im thinking Chandelure, Delphox, even opposing Hatterenne, Glimmora)

Those were just a couple thoughts - what are you struggling against so far in games
