Once you get you Pokedex save your game and return to the main menu. Once there choose the "Mystery Gift" option and then choose the "Get via internet" option. Once you do that then as soon as you reach the first Pokemon center there will be a guy there waiting to give you a Munchlax (the pre-evolved form of Snorlax).

Nice, thanks!

 

[Boss Doggie]

Also is it me or why do the dialog selection seems pointless?

Like Kukui talks about Rotom, the choices are "Really?!" and "Rotom?!" I picked the former, but his dialog sounds like I chose Rotom since he explains Rotom immediately. It's also apparent in the choices before that.

 

[HawthorneKitty]

Fuck, used all my money buying clothes and getting hair done lol.

 

[Neoxon]

Female Rowlett on first try TEE HEE

Sooo.....Thea?

 

[Puruzi]

[Servbot24]

Wasn't planning on getting on this... but found out it's 30 on Amazon, Bought Sun. :|

 

[spiritfox]

Fuck, used all my money buying clothes and getting hair done lol.

The curse of being pretty.

 

[Starwolf_UK]

TOO
MANY
FUCKING
WINGULL

AHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Wait until later on (encounters)

Spoiler

watching Werster it seemed like over half the random encounters on the third Island were Pelipper...with Drizzle (which is awesome it was funny the first encounter being "not going to catch this...Drizzle? Drizzle? I'm totally getting this")

 

[toastyToast]

Seen a level 98 shiny Rowlet on GTS

It's happening already

 

[Kinsei]

Fuck, used all my money buying clothes and getting hair done lol.

I know what you mean. There's this barrette that's super pretty but it costs over 100k. I'm totally going to be broke once I buy it.

 

[hemo memo]

It's 8:20pm in my area but the game still is afternoon :/



Yeah that's what I'm thinking too.

With that said Stars is a dumb name so that's why I'm not believing it.

This is par for the course for Pokemon and/or JRPGs in general.

 

[Dystify]

Pokémon Sun and Moon almost don't use the secondary screen besides menus. tThe same way Zelda BotW doesn't have many second-screen controls despite being on WiiU. That screamed pokémon sunmoon port for switch.

Hey I noticed it says "developing..." in the OT. When are you gonna add the other content to it? It's quite short at the moment. Good work nonetheless!

 

[SomedayTheFire]

I'm still not sure who is want to pick. I was hoping Decidueye was a fast physical attacker and it's not and I love Incineroars Z Move. But if I went Litten I want a female Litten :-/

I played the whole game and only realized this now. Explains the PSS gone, plus many other menus.

Mind blown.

 

[Boss Doggie]

This is par for the course for Pokemon and/or JRPGs in general.

I got different dialogs in other games and even older pokemon, but it helps that they weren't thrown at you every time.

 

[Busaiku]

Yeah, actually I am gonna keep resetting for Modest Female Popplio.
Gotta go through the entire opening again, but I don't wanna lose my starter.

 

[clemenx]

Wondertrade for me is nothing but Pipikeks and Ledybas so far lol.

I just want one with Pokerus ;-;

Most of the choices will get you maybe one dialogue box of different stuff, maybe a different facial reaction. But then carry on generically.

 

[Forkball]

"My body is ready."

GET IT

IT'S THAT THING REGGIE SAID ONCE

LOL

Lots of RPGs have stupid dialog choices like that. I don't know why they bother. I tend to associate it more with older RPGs than newer ones, though. Things like

Are you ready?
>Sure am!
>Let's go!

used to be pretty ubiquitous. That's not a real example, but I'm sure everyone knows what I mean.

Or options to choose No when the character will simply ask you again because No isn't really an option.

 

[MannyToons]

Sooo.....Thea?

Setsuna would be cool, too.

 

[Boss Doggie]

It goes away soon enough. Then you can be annoyed by Rotom Dex's eyes and red border wasting screen real-estate instead.

oh god you're right

those wasted areas :/

I put developing just in case more reviews popped up.

Also, I wanted to keep the post short, and not give too much information and pics when they are already available on official websites. In time, as guides and content is created, I will start putting them up there.

 

[Fireblend]

Played for like 5 minutes yesterday before falling asleep

Hopefully I can put some real time into this today and over the weekend.

 

[Maintenance]

"My body is ready."

GET IT

IT'S THAT THING REGGIE SAID ONCE

LOL

I'm probably wrong but I don't recall many memes this time around, I haven't touched the post game though. X/Y/ORAS were filled with them.

 

[Chiramii]

Fuck, used all my money buying clothes and getting hair done lol.

The correct way of playing.

 

[DragonKnight]

Want alolan pikachu. Anybody know where i can get a thunderstone?

 

[MrCookiepants]

omg I got Pokerus!

 

[Maintenance]

You can get one in the wild at the

Spoiler

second island if I recall correctly.

. You can also buy them before

Spoiler

the second island's trial, Konikoni City.

 

[JayWood2010]

When can you unlock the Stat Judge?

 

[ffdgh]

I'm enjoying how no one takes team skull seriously.

 

[killertofu]

Fuck you Toys R Us. Never again.

 

[MannyToons]

Just bumped into Alolan Rattata on Route 1, and I'm not sure whether I want to use it or not... I can't decide what to use yet at all. D: Lol.

 

[FaintDeftone]

Grabbing my copy on my lunch break via Best Buy.

Question: how long does it take before you can start customizing your character? That's one thing I didn't like about X&Y; it felt like I had to pump a lot of time into the game before I could do that.

 

[jelmerjt]

When can you unlock the Stat Judge?

You have to hatch 20 eggs I believe.

 

[Macka]

I am...really not enjoying this so far. :/

That trial was dull as hell, plus super annoying. Raticate made me flinch three times in a row before I OHKO with Brick Break and ended the fight. Lol.

Cutscenes for the sake of cutscenes. What was gained or learned from having to collect Nebby once again in the area with the yellow flowers? It's just pointless.

Like 15 mins in?

 

[Elaugaufein]

If you've found that time doesn't change, I think some in game events happen at certain times or lock the time (one or the other). It stayed "dusk" for me from when I got back from getting my starter until I finished the 2nd rival battle when it immediately changed to night despite not having an hour tick over.

(Sort of annoyed since I wasted 2 hours waiting to see if it was going to change to get Ratatta and Spinarak but at least it gave me plenty of time to hunt down Pichu).

 

[Galava]

Added Dex and Alola map guide to first post.

Thanks to Serebii for the awesome dex and map guide

 

[JayWood2010]

Yes but when? Can you do this before post-game, or is it anytime?

 

[Boss Doggie]

Pikapek are only daytime right?

 

[Lkr]

Mine is out for delivery, should be here within an hour or 2
Did anyone get the guide? How is it? Thinking about purchasing it but not sure if it's worth it in the age of the internet. I haven't bought it since RSE so are they even any good these days? Is it prima or done by Nintendo?

 

[shingi70]

How do you reset the game after saving.

 

[Seil]

Pikapek are only daytime right?

Pikipek are all times.

How do you reset the game after saving.

Up + B + X on the title screen.

 

[Adrian121]

Up to the second island at the moment. Absolutely loving this game so far.

 

[Finale Fireworker]

How do you reset the game after saving.

L+R+START+SELECT, I'm sure.

EDIT: Up + B + X on the title screen. I was completely and totally wrong.

 

[Seil]

Yes but when? Can you do this before post-game, or is it anytime?

The NPC who unlocks the feature isn't until postgame.

 

[Admiral Woofington]

Want alolan pikachu. Anybody know where i can get a thunderstone?

Don't know about thunderstones yet but you can get pichu in route 1 in the patch of grass before the first village. They evolve with happiness so just keep using it in battles and carrying it around with you and it'll eventually evolve into Pikachu

 

[Boss Doggie]

Pikipek are all times.

weird, I keep finding damn rattata than those birds
