Caught my first ever
shiny yesterday.
...It was a Magikarp.
(excepting the Red Gyarados in the Lake of Rage in GS)

Still one of the best Shiny pokemon though. (I got one yesterday too lol)

Why are people having trouble with female Salandit? The game outright gives you two opportunities.
Either catch a male Igglybuff with Cute Charm (hard), or catch a male Eevee and evolve it into Sylveon (easy).

The kids playing Pokemon video games on their handhelds are my favourite part of the series.

The 1% encounter rate for Feebas on Brooklet Hill is killing me. I've been fishing the same rippling spot for two days now. Just Goldeens and Magikarps.

I wanna thank the random dude who had a modest popplio in the GTS. Took about 20 mins of power leveling, but now I have a Lv 40 primarina. It's so good! Now I don't have to go without a water type.

How is everyone enjoying the game?
I'm having so much trouble getting work done today >_> I just want to continue playing.

What's the male/female ratio? I found a female one within 2-3 tries of searching for it.

Nah it's just how the games show trading. They always show the handheld.
I guess in-universe, the handhelds are the trade terminals. With also the concept of PCs, the Pokemon are essentially digitized. In many ways Pokemon preceded Digimon in the concept outside of Porygon.

Been playing for 6 hours.
Pros:
- Impressed with the art direction, everything feels alive and colorful. The new engine fits Pokémon perflectly and I don't miss the grid gameplay at all.
- Islands map, nice to see some old Pokémon revamped.
- No more HMs, yes!
- Good variety of catachable Pokémon early on.
Cons:
- Music is overall forgettable. I miss the "intense action" tone of the battle themes.
- Too much linear with too many useless and annoying conversations.
- The "care" functionnality after a fight. I never cared for that since Ruby/Saphirre, but now I feel obliged to pet them to remove their statuts. Huge waste of time.
- Rottom Pokédex is the shittiest thing they ever done. Annoying, took half of the bottom screen for nothing, boring functionnalites. Where the hell is the Pokédex from ORAS?
- There is a small loading in every corner of the route/city you're in, even if you open a small gate to simply go on the other side of the fence... That actually makes the progression slower than X/Y.
I am disappointed. Graphics engine is nice, but other than that, it's all X/Y over again.

Just to make sure I'm doing this correctly...
I have a Male Modest Salandit.
I have a female Salandit.
I give the Male the Everstone, passing the Nature down to the Egg.
Hatch eggs repeatedly until one is a female.
I've hatched ~5 eggs and they have all been male. I know the chances are slimmer, but the Everstone doesn't pass down gender as well, does it? Or do I just need to keep trying?
I also have an Adamant Female Rowlet I need to start breeding out.

You're just unlucky!
That kid's not getting "a" Mewtwo from an actual in-universe Pokemon trade.

So after about an hour of SOS chaining Cutieflys, the chain was broken because the last one ran out of moves and had to Struggle. It called for help and I tried to catch it twice, and it failed both calls and kept breaking free. Those Speed Ev's were worth it though, my Lycanroc went from 110 to 115 speed and my Tsareena went from 81 to 84.

I think the Aether Paradise theme is my favorite in the game. Reminds me of Sea (Al'taieu) in FFXI.

I thought it was just a simple meta jab at hacked Wonder Trade Pokemon. Not some science stuff.
There's only one Mewtwo in the game universe. It's never been canonically captured by anyone.

Guys, anyone got a snow warning Vulpix they can share with me? Doesn't have to have good IVs, I just want the little fox. I don't have much to give in return (for now), as I didn't even beat Olivia's trial yet.

People called Romanes they go the house?
Alternatively, you could wait til post-game, level one, and use the hyper training (or whatever its called) to boost its IVs?
Or did you mean more on an individual 'nature' basis?
Numbnexus and Pokeaimmd are cool.
I lost to pokeaimmd on showdown last night
I second pokeaimMD. Great competitive player who explains his thought process really wel. I follow him and pretty much all of his friends and have greatly improved my battling skills thanks to it.
The R button never works for me in the game
Turn off L=A.

It's because you have L=A on.
For some reason, this disables the R button entirely.
Na, he probably got one of Auslove's hacks

FUCK YOU SOS
I'M JUST CATCHING A GODDAMN POKEMON

Maybe mewtwo found the ditto of its life?
its a joke. Don't take it serious people
I'm just happy that the Switch is region-free (presumably), so I won't have to deal with region lock ever again

Or... just run around the grass and find a female 1/8 times (easiest).

I actually thought my R button was broken before I realized what happened.

I love that you can Fly to practically anywhere of note. Although maybe Verdant Cave didn't need a spot. The PokéCenter is right next to it and selecting it tricky unless you zoom in.
