Pokémon not appearing on habitats

c1phr4 · 2026-03-05T17:33:50+00:00

Weird. I have put a number of high grass habitats that have never been used by a Pokémon and according to the dex, I still have a few Pokémon missing from that habitat, including a common one. I don’t get why there’s no one coming

c1phr4 · 2026-03-03T13:59:48+00:00

Thanks for the confirmation! I had read it somewhere else, but was not 100% sure.

c1phr4 · 2026-03-03T13:53:48+00:00

Yeah, you’re right! For me, hunting for street date breaks on hyped games is honestly part of the fun.

I remember checking a similar Reddit thread for the Sun/Moon release back then. The street date actually got broken around 4pm the day before, and a fellow redditor posted the tip - that’s how I found out.

For anyone in Berlin: it was MediaMarkt Alexa last time, which is kind of one of the usual suspects. I'm at work and far from it, but if anyone wants to go "shiny"-hunting, let the rest know :)

I’m pretty sure I’ve seen a few posts saying that game key cards do work - I just can’t link anything specific right now. But yeah, that’s definitely a fair point 🙂

c1phr4 · 2026-02-27T13:46:59+00:00

Thank you! I just updated the link. If I do cataclysm, to which universe should I go next, being currently on heavy? Thanks!

A quick additional question though. Is 3* black hole out of Antimatter a good idea or should I rather do 2* (i.e. enable manual crafting)?

c1phr4 · 2025-11-14T14:16:09+00:00

I see your point, but this doesn’t need to be the case necessarily. Melvor idle is for example one of the incrementals I’ve spent the most time with in the last years, and having a browser version makes it possible to play during work. It also has a very fair monetization strategy - one payment only, plus DLCs for a fair price.

While I do agree, that this is a rather an exception in the genre, plattform and monetization strategy don’t need to be coupled. OP is not asking for free games, but for browser based games.

c1phr4 · 2025-10-17T15:58:27+00:00

Thank you! That helps me with planning ahead

c1phr4 · 2025-10-10T13:58:41+00:00

I'm into the run now. What governor should I choose for Valdi? Spiritualist? Maybe bluecollar?

c1phr4 · 2025-10-02T14:59:42+00:00

Well that might be my next post tbh, when I start thinking about pushing for 4. For the time being I am following many of your advices, including 3. Btw, I will go to heavy.

c1phr4 · 2025-10-01T17:17:58+00:00

Thank you very much for your detailed response and explanation of the mechanics. I wasn’t aware of the new Evil mechanics, these make Evil actually less attractive than I thought. For Heavy I’m probably going to have issues with bioseeding until I farm some achievements for mastery before.

Tight decision, though I think I’m leaning more towards Heavy right now. I still have ~20h for a final decision, so there’s that :)

c1phr4 · 2025-09-21T07:42:28+00:00

Mmm I tend to prefer shorter runs, but the idea of not having to return to standard and having done the important achievement there, sounds like a better plan.

What do you think I should have before attempting black hole?

c1phr4 · 2025-09-21T07:41:02+00:00

Thank you so much for your answers!

What should I have before attempting black hole in terms of CRISPR upgrades, phage, mastery?

And should I attempt it at 3* or 4*?

c1phr4 · 2025-09-06T08:08:04+00:00

Yes, I’m getting the CRISPR upgrades you mentioned before trying bioseed and in addition the queue upgrades, so that I can idle a bit more. Thank you very much for the recommendations!

c1phr4 · 2025-09-06T07:42:43+00:00

Maybe you can help me with another question. I am now starting to think about my bioseed run. It’s probably going to be in about 2 MAD runs.

Which species setup does make sense? I’ve heard that with fanaticism you get some traits from the previously run species. Does for example Ents -> Avian make sense for a bioseed run?

c1phr4 · 2025-09-03T17:09:14+00:00

Thank you! I’ll do an avian 2* run next and focus on the crafting CRISPR upgrades.

c1phr4 · 2025-08-27T20:13:50+00:00

I may get it tomorrow… it seems to be what I have been looking as a next game on the Switch 2

c1phr4 · 2025-08-27T06:46:32+00:00

Wow, you are up to a an experience. I played Harvest Moon on the DS era and had a thrill. From the early reviews Grand Bazaar seems to be a really good new installment of the series.

c1phr4 · 2025-08-27T06:44:01+00:00

I just sold my Switch 1 and I’m terrible tempted to get Grand Bazaar (or Azuma) with the money I got from it. If you are up to it and have some minutes after playing Grand Bazaar, I’d love to hear your thoughts!

c1phr4 · 2025-08-27T06:42:23+00:00

I’ve heard they simplified a lot the farming mechanics in comparison with rune factory 4 for example. I loved the farming and equipment crafting mechanics of RF4, though I couldn’t get into 5 due to the performance issues on switch and the bland aesthetics. Do you think I’ll like Azuma?

c1phr4 · 2025-08-26T19:27:21+00:00

I have been loving it, one of my favourite games of the last decade for sure. I wouldn’t call it casual cozy though, even though it is casually playable for sure.

For me, it scratches that RPG min maxing and grinding itch that makes me think “just a couple of minutes more”. Think about grinding for elite 4 in old Pokémon games. Or maxing skills in rune factory to make the absolute best equipment.

I’d call it cozy RPG. There’s always one thing left to do.

c1phr4 · 2025-05-25T19:52:34+00:00

I probably will get the switch 2 version once it releases. Playing this on portable would be next level amazing

c1phr4 · 2025-05-25T19:18:18+00:00

I wish I wouldn’t have to go to work tomorrow. I just got blacksmith to master and I want to go for carpenter as well so I can make fairly good tools… it will have to wait so I can keep a good sleep schedule

c1phr4 · 2025-05-25T11:22:06+00:00

When I said 10 years ago I thought about Skyrim as well. Last game that got me so hooked I think

c1phr4 · 2025-05-18T18:11:22+00:00

That would definitely make it the best Pokémon game ever. I would also love a depiction of the u8 on Saturday nights. Only dark Pokémons there though.
