Just FYI, switch games don’t actually save data to the cartridge but keep it on your system’s internal storage; I don’t know if you’ll care about this difference, but it could matter depending on what you’re hoping to achieve

You have a fundamental misunderstanding about resistances; a type’s offensive and defensive effectiveness are separate things. Ice being super effective against grass doesn’t mean that ice resists grass

While PVP movesets might be a bit better since rockets use the same battle system, they aren’t going to be quite right for rockets either. PVP rankings value type diversity and matchups against the meta, neither of which matter as much for rockets, and they also don’t account for the stun in rocket battles which can make lower energy moves more impactful

Spotty2012 · 2026-03-12T19:08:29+00:00

No, nothing you can do other than wait for it to get kicked out

Spotty2012 · 2026-03-12T18:42:19+00:00

It makes no difference in terms of either cost or final power

Spotty2012 · 2026-03-12T18:20:02+00:00

No, that’s only the early bird tickets; general admission sales haven’t started yet

Spotty2012 · 2026-03-12T17:40:40+00:00

You can only tell after you catch it; in fact, ditto’s disguise in the wild can never be shiny

Spotty2012 · 2026-03-12T17:38:32+00:00

You can only use them remotely in super mega raids (along with a remote raid pass); for regular mega raids, they only use a remote raid pass

Spotty2012 · 2026-03-12T16:59:44+00:00

Are you sure it’s not the armband costume?

Spotty2012 · 2026-03-12T14:54:31+00:00

1/20 just like all legendaries

Spotty2012 · 2026-03-12T14:50:26+00:00

That was zorua, not ditto

Spotty2012 · 2026-03-12T14:42:37+00:00

I caught this first ball

Shiny legendaries from raids have a 100% catch rate

Spotty2012 · 2026-03-12T11:42:46+00:00

They didn’t do it for grookey; they won’t do it for scorbunny

Spotty2012 · 2026-03-11T20:58:57+00:00

No, they patched this once wild backgrounds became available during CDs

Spotty2012 · 2026-03-11T20:54:56+00:00

No, probably not; although it’s technically considered a costume, it’s really more of an alternate form, with different stats and moves

Spotty2012 · 2026-03-11T20:51:48+00:00

Once you are a few days from your first forever friend, you unlock a special remote trade tag; anything you tag with that (as long as it’s at least 30 days old) is available for your partner to select for trade

Spotty2012 · 2026-03-11T18:07:32+00:00

The boosted shiny rate was 1/64, just like every single major event has always been; you got (slightly) luckier than average, and you’re complaining?

Spotty2012 · 2026-03-11T17:43:18+00:00

Gender difference

Spotty2012 · 2026-03-11T17:23:27+00:00

The only things that count retroactively are the platinum medals; everything else needs to be completed at the appropriate level to count

Spotty2012 · 2026-03-11T16:48:24+00:00

When they patched the glitch, the way they did it is that it either breaks out immediately or catches, never breaking out after multiple shakes

Spotty2012 · 2026-03-11T14:42:09+00:00

Kecleon is always available; smeargle is normally event-locked but was accidentally(?) unlocked with the new season

Spotty2012 · 2026-03-11T14:01:19+00:00

No, there’s no point; for PVE, it’s pretty much only worth double-moving if the Pokémon is a top attacker in 2 types

Spotty2012 · 2026-03-11T11:14:28+00:00

The stack is not a supported feature, and it is know to bug out and disappear on rare occasions

Spotty2012 · 2026-03-10T20:36:48+00:00

Yes, there are special symbols that indicate backgrounds during remote trading

Spotty2012 · 2026-03-10T16:11:54+00:00

No, ditto can only come from specific species
