You can always tell when a kid joins the curry session, everyone else has stopped fanning while they continue to mash and burn the whole thing, and then they stir like they're trying to create a damn whirlpool.
Damn brats have no nuance at the intricacies of Pokemon curry

Good god, the AI partners in Max Raids are the very definition of fucking useless, even in low star raids. Max Raids become nearly impossible using them in 5 Stars+. Just did a 5 star Vileplum and in the games wisdom, it gave me all water Pokemon, including a fucking Magicarp.
Would it have been that hard for GF to adjust the AI partners to compensate for difficulty, instead of just shoving the same Magicarp that was useless in 1 Star in a 5 star raid? I truly feel for people that don't have online that will try to do harder raids (Not that online is much better, since it barely works).

Yeah i've given up on raids now, either you get shitty AI partners who wipe within 2 turns or you get disconnected. Garbage system.
Gosh darn it pal, we need an era curry cooking course intervention!
but generally it's just a case of avoiding black smoke and spillage by reigning it in if you start going overboard
If I don't put all my energy into the curry how will my pokemon know that I love them though
Quick question: I heard a lot of people mention that it's best to have several 5 perfect IVs Dittos - like one not perfect in special attack, one not perfect in attack etc.
I just wonder why though, since if I understood breeding correctly the IVs will be inherited randomly, so what's the point of that?

they ain't fake tears anymore!
If you give a Pokemon a Destiny Knot when breeding, it's guaranteed to pass down some IVs.
Lol

But to be honest I didn't even know I was spilling it so I'll have to watch out for that from now on!
But only 5 random ones though, right? So, I still don't see the point in having different 5 perfect IVs Dittos unless I'm missing something here.
Just got badge 8.
The "Dragon" badge, huh. A badge for defeating the "Dragon type gym leader", eh? The badge you get from the "tamer of dragons".

5 IVs from the Parents. So if you're Ditto has mostly perfect IVs, then you have a decent shot of breeding a Mon that has perfect IVs too.
Which you can now breed with your Ditto for an even higher likelihood of get perfect IVs until you have a 5 or even 6 IV mon of your choice.
Correct, 1 level above the limit means no catching.
You can see the exact limit on your league card.
Oh, what? It was a completely grey Hippowdon. I went to update my league card and it said I had encountered two shinies now (the first one being the Dreepy I hatched). So then I have probably missed out on something else completely.
EDIT: ok, apparently that counter also counts evolutions of a shiny. My Dreepy is now a Drakloak, that's why it says 2 shiny encounters. phew.

I haven't lost a single 5* max raid solo, but I use a level 100 pokemon - usually Mew. The level definitely makes a difference.
For 5* solo raids you can generally manage fine with a strong level 100 Pokemon. Not the legends since they can't Dynamax and thus bring down their shields faster. With Gyarados I can beat 90% of the 5* raids on my first try, and once I build up more Pokemon the ones it has trouble with can also be dealt with. Stuff like Drednaw is still an RNG fest, but it's definitely doable.
Even with the exploit, it could take hours to spawn a single Gmax. Assuming the online was completely functional (which it's not by a long shot), it would take MONTHS to get all the gmax pokemon the intended way. If they ever patch this out, they will seriously need to overhaul the raid system completely as well as the online infrastructure.
Play a bit more of the game today;
- Took on the first ever dark type Gym leader, he was alright but very underdeveloped and the whole class structure plot is just causally sweep aside,
- Team Yell is just eh and I wish that they had done more with them than just being rock block,
- Marine is just underdeveloped, boring and could have easily been cut from the game,
- Headed back to Hammerlock and took on Raihan, I wanted to end the battle with Rillaboom and Charizard but alas it wasn't to be, eh maybe in another playthrough.
- It was interesting fighting a gym leader in a double battle his team actually makes sense as I was raising my eyebrow as two of them weren't dragon type,
- Oh hi professor Magnolia, I thought that you died.
- Sonia being professor was nice but eh it feels unceremonious,
- Headed off to route 10, it was a bit of a short route. It could have been longer and served as the game victory road,
- Arrived in Wydon like its real life counterpart...I hate it already,
- Took on the semi-final of the champion cup,
- Took on Marine first...got nothing to say really her underdeveloped role has come to an end,
- Took on Hop, it was cool battle and being harrassed by the Press with Hop stepping in as body guard was cool.
- Seems like Leon didn't turn up for dinner and something is going down at Rose's tower, will investigate it tomorrow.
lol yeah there's a certain thrill when you score several treasures in a row.
Go to the 2nd floor of the right-wing of the hotel at Circhester and you'll be able to do daily double battles with Morimoto-san
Through a tool called Edizon, go take a look on gbatemp for more info, I don't think Era looks too favourably on discussion of it.
Uhh so the day/night cycle is gone?
During that streaming before release there were gifs showing that it wasn't clock based and would change according to the area, and some people assured us that it wasn't the case according to an insider, and the cycle was still there.
Now I'm playing the game and it isn't. Is there a plausible reason for cutting this or is it just gone for the hell of it, like the GTS?

Its still there. Just only works in the wild area for the story. After the story it works normally everywhere. It's really dumb.
It doesn't make sense because we've had several games now with 3d cutscenes and they didn't have to remove a feature (or restrict it to only one area of the game which is even more baffling) because of that.
S/M accommodates that very well, and the day/night setting was even more crucial for that game's plot.
I've got one in a Premier Ball now if you want to trade. I could use a Choice Band. I can keep the Rusted Shield I'm guessing?

If I save before a raid and don't like the stats of what I caught, will reloading make it have different IVs or are they locked when the raid is generated?
Thanks. That sucks. I can't imagine getting a 5 IV Ditto through normal methods when even with the exploits it takes a while.
Hop isn't as bad at the end and in the post game.
The ease of EV training is nice. I've never bothered with it before.

If you're just talking about camp, as far as I know it's just flavor text, but if you're concerned about breeding, that's just the game telling you that they are compatible, but it could take a while to get an egg.
I dont think its random per camp, I had a Tsareena, Hatterena and Sirfetch'd on my team during the story and they were all in this clique almost everytime I made camp, Hatterena and Tsareena were both "very close" and "best friends." I later brought on a Gardevior during my raid HA grinding and she was consistently afraid of the queen bees.
Indeed, after making curry my 2 guys went from "Aren't sure about each other" to "Have opened up bit" So there is definitely a persistent friendship mechanic.
Dang Gamefreak got me playing Tomagachi/Nintendogs in 2019
Im talking about on here like how in the OP the discord link is hidden behind a hidden content tab thats only seen if you post here
Currently utilizing a Weakness Policy on my Tyranitar. Question: Does it get used up and disappear in a raid battle like normal gameplay? Or is it "saved" like comp. play?
I just assumed it had something to do with natures, but I guess not.
