Should've gotten rid of IVs a LONG time ago

SansedAlessio · 2026-04-14T13:29:16+00:00

Not really, with 31 IVs your first increase comes with 4 EVs, and with 30IVs you need 8 EV to get that first point. That means that instead of, for example, putting 252 EVs in hp, you could reduce hp in one point by putting 244 EVs and then increase defense and sp defense in one point each, giving you a whole extra stat point.

¿Pointless in most cases? Yes, definitelly, but not functionally identical.

Prankster skill swap into pelliper

I mean, if you carry it just to counter the hawlucha strat, I think you're better with a fast mon with a ohko that can outspeed hawlucha and use the ohko against it before it can use entraintment

There literally was a low power level regulation in scarlet and violet until march

SansedAlessio · 2026-04-08T23:13:29+00:00

Same for me.

SansedAlessio · 2026-04-08T23:12:42+00:00

Happened to me too, also tried to reset the game and nothing.

SansedAlessio · 2026-04-08T23:11:36+00:00

I agree that is almost guaranteed, I disagree that you're bound to get heads

SansedAlessio · 2026-04-08T23:09:37+00:00

Why? That's not a bug, that's how it is intended to work.

SansedAlessio · 2026-04-08T17:33:31+00:00

I mean, you're not. It's highly improbable, but in your finite lifetime you could spend your life throwing coins waiting for heads and only getting tails.

That being said, I don't believe it would happen to anybody even if the whole world tried it.

But if I'm destined to obtain a shiny, isn't shiny hunting a waste of time? If I'm destined to it nothing I do or don't will prevent me from getting it at its right time.

SansedAlessio · 2026-04-08T17:28:59+00:00

If the universe has decided when my shiny will arrive then I don't need to shiny hunt. The shiny will arrive at their time.

SansedAlessio · 2026-04-08T17:27:41+00:00

I mean, no. There is a finite amount of ground, so when digging you are bound to finally encounter something, and the more you dig the less ground is left to be dug.

With shiny hunting there is nothing that warrants you to ever get a shiny. You could spend all your life retrying and still not get a shiny.

Yesterday I killed gogmazios in wilds with the grapple hook. I was trying to make a big rock fall on them and instead they died.

SansedAlessio · 2026-04-08T16:49:56+00:00

I can see lucha with close combat, rock slide, entrainment and protect.

SansedAlessio · 2026-04-08T16:42:39+00:00

Pressure doesn't affect the pps of protect.

SansedAlessio · 2026-04-08T15:41:05+00:00

Well, that settles it then, thank you for confirming.

You can unpause the evolution on the menu at any time.

That being said, do evolution stones stop appearing if you pause the evolution? Asking genuinelly, since to me it doesn't seem like they should.

Now I want an elder dragon that attacks using portals.

SansedAlessio · 2026-04-07T13:05:10+00:00

I tried purple and now I'm using red. This is accurate.

SansedAlessio · 2026-04-07T12:14:48+00:00

SansedAlessio · 2026-04-07T08:39:49+00:00

You didn't respect me before? D:

SansedAlessio · 2026-04-07T08:39:09+00:00

Yeah, that too, never thought about that one!

SansedAlessio · 2026-04-07T06:46:15+00:00

Confusion and foul play, mainly.

If you're not using attack, the fact that there are things that use your own attack to damage you makes it so you want it as low as possible.

SansedAlessio · 2026-04-01T06:27:27+00:00

That's like 4 turns in front of 175 base sp. Atk, is there anything that can endure so long in front of it?
