I believe what you have to do is select the castle you have them in--scroll to the info option--choose the character whose Pokemon you want to switch and the option to switch should be in there.

Finally got it today. Shipment ran late as hell because of a certain other item I got with it(I freaking preordered it, look at the date!)
Am I good with the passwords in the OP or is there another site with all of them?
Serabii has them all, including the Japanese ones (I doubt they'd work but there you go).

I haven't really bothered to get the Best Links for my standard Warriors yet, currently still on the 1st story (close to Nobunaga).
I've pretty much just been grinding with their current Pokemon and getting those to level up and whatnot.
Are there Pokemon from this story that I can miss out on the future episodes?
Or should I worry about Best Links and stuff later and just get those Pokemon pumped?

Well, Conkeldurr is the final evo of that line anyways
But if you mean Gurdurr, you might have to get his Attack stat higher or something. I'm not sure, I got one Conkeldurr and switched to Machamp lol.
Also, Warlords don't evolve until post-game.

Some of the Pokemon in this game seem...pretty broken.
I got Carnivine, Gyrados, and Darmanitan all very easily, the former 2 with their Best Link Warriors, and they kick-ass. Carnivine is actually GOOD with Levitate in this game, where it's worthless in the main games, and he's got high attack and Vine Whip does a lot of damage it seems. Same with Gyrados, who kills everything with Aqua Tail, and can lower Speed and Range of multiple Pokemon. And then Darmanitan's Fire Blast destroys shit too.

Yeah, I finally got it. That is ridiculously awkward. What the hell.
Beat Dragnor
with the following team:
Flareon - this guy is a beast. 200+ damage to neutral resist. ~80% link
Machamp - cross chop doesn't hit often due to Machamp's low speed, but it is amazing.
Frosslass - shitty, really didn't do much and I only got it for Aya because it's her Perfect Link. Probably didn't help it was gotten like 5 minutes before I fought Dragnor lol
Dragonite - eh, not as good as I wanted it to be. Speed is too low. Took maxing it's link level at 70% to evolve it and it already had 500 (!) strength. Absurd. My Flareon has 510 at 83%ish.
Wigglytuff - I don't know why I didn't switch this POS out for anything else for Oichi, but rest assured she's only here because she has to be, lol.
Gengar - Shadow Ball is absolutely amazing, kills everything, similar to Flareon's Fire Fang. Pretty fragile though.
Switch out Flareon for
Frosslass and Wigglytuff were useless. Gengar died quickly
Dragonite and Machamp missed a bit too much to be really useful, but they hit when it mattered I guess.
and the final battle

Switch out Flareon for
Arceusand that's my team for the final battle.
Frosslass and Wigglytuff were useless. Gengar died quickly
in the 2nd fight.
Nope, the MC's episode basically functions as another episode. Once you complete it you just go back to the episode select screen.
maybe they'll make NG+ a downloadable episode lol

OK I have another question: I'm right about to conquer the final kingdom. Some warriors have started appearing that have Perfect Links that I don't really have access to yet, like Beedrill and Croagunk. Am I better off just leaving them be and not recruiting them? Do I lose anything if I leave them unrecruited?
EDIT Or, is there any chance that I'll get a brief reprieve after conquering dragon land to go in there any maybe find an Axew or two for the warriors that need them, before the episode ends?

Oh alright. Seems it's locked right now so I'll do it as soon as I can.
Anyway I was playing and all, it's really fun.
Just like other games that count days/turns or whatever (like Pikmin 2), I'm afraid I won't be able to resist the temptation and just "abandon" months when something goes bad, and dump them on training. Like, if something was not PERFECT on one day on Pikmin 2 I'd just say fuck it and start farming new dudes until the next day.
It does seem to have an anti-grinding setup though (with the resets between campaigns) so we'll see. In fact it just looks really anti-completionist, which is a bit weird for a Pokemon game.
No ending kingdoms/spoilers please, but I suspect finishing the last battles/kingdoms will immediately end the main story, so finish any evolutions you want before then. As far as I know, warriors will have a chance of showing up in later stories so there's not a requirement of getting them in the main story. It would really suck otherwise.
All of this is true.
well after the last kingdom is conquered you can go back and do stuff

OMG THE CONTINENT
(not really plot spoilers)
IS SHAPED LIKE ARCEUS
(not really plot spoilers)
Whoa, that would be a really weird decision. :/ I'm also interested in confirmation about this.so does that mean since i beat the game already i can't get this episode?
yeah i just downloaded it, says "This event can only occur during the story The Legend of Ransei."
in comparison, i also downloaded Ranmaru's story and it says "You are now able to play Ranmaru's story, "A Fate Born of Beauty".

So I beat the main story and have been doing the little side missions. I feel I fucked up not getting the perfect link on anyone. I had 3 guys 3-5% away, and now it seems... much more difficult to match certain requirements, or the side missions are just too short.
I also tried downloading both. I'm still in the main story, right after I beat the fighting kingdom.
When I downloaded Ranmaru's story it said "will be available after the main story", when I clicked on the other one, it just kicked me off to the title screen and said nothing and nothing popped up.
Could it be that you need to be at the START of the main story? This is so wrong if that's it.
Weird, maybe (hopefully?) it's bugged. :/
so i guess they are just other warlords you can get, with grass and water specialties. For those interested, their Perfect Links are the 2nd and 3rd evos of
Snivy and Oshawott
Still odd that they would add a limitation that would prevent you from completing your gallery, if that's the case, if you beat the main game too fast. Especially when "too fast" is like 12 hours played in a few weeks.

There are post-game episodes featuring Motonari and Motochika, which I assume will unlock them (they were already unlocked for me). In the end, I don't think anything is missable.
Yeah, today I continued and a few months afterwards (not the next month), they just wanted to be recruited.
What threw me off was that literally NOTHING said I got it enabled after I clicked it (unlike the other download). At first I didn't even know that the fact I recruited them was thanks to the download. But oh well.
If you delete your save, can you just redownload or reactivate all the events? It certainly doesn't work like that in the normal Pokemon games, so be careful whoever deletes his save.
So just a way to unlock them earlier then? That's not so bad, thanks.
I agree about deleting saves -- don't do it if you've already done events since you might not get to do them again.

December 31st, 2012 is when they end. You might only be able to download them once per DS or something.
edit: or they could be on your DS/cart forever.

Here's a helpful tip that evaded me at first and might help you guys if you haven't noticed it too.
After beating the main story, and you start tackling the extra missions, sometimes you get stuck by not doing enough early enough or whatever...
You aren't locked into that story until you either win or lose, you can choose leave the story and either restart it or start a different one.
Choose 'quit' from the start menu which will abandon progress on that mission and take you back to the extra mission selection menu.
Saved me a lot of frustration with the 100 pokemon mission that I messed up in.

What happened? Did you get gangbeaten by two nations at once? Or did that stupid Officer and his stupid Gabite quadruple the power of all of the enemy nations in one month?
I wasn't gonna say it because of embarrassment, but here we go
1. Got 3 underleveled battles (hard and long as hell) + recruiting 2 roaming warriors (good ones), also evolved 2 Pokemon
2. Now let's be really dumb and not save
3. Now let's be even dumber and put the DS in my pocket in this state
few hours later
4. "huh? did I have something in my pocket? what's this weird..-" *push* *pop*
5. MOTHER OF NIDORAN

That's harsh.
Something similar actually happened to me just last night.
*grinds Yoshimoto up to 2nd stage; takes 2 hours*
*goes to see The Amazing Spider-Man with 3DS in sleep mode in pocket*
*comes out 2.5 hours later and realizes light is red and flashing*
*opens 3DS to save; power immediately goes out*
*cries quietly*
Seriously, do NOT evolve Yoshimoto's Pineco unless you're ready for one heck of a grind. Gyro Ball is awful in this game.

For those that are interested, here's an interesting PBS special I found about the real Ieyasu, Nobunaga, and Hideyoshi.
It's an interesting concise overview into the dynamics between them in their pursuit to unify Japan. 55 minutes

Not only that, but
Ginchiyo's
Is there a way to get a luxray for someone else so she can keep her perfect link?
ScraftyDevil
Banned
As with any Warlord, their Perfect Link's final stage is the Perfect Link of their second form. If you want Ginchiyo to evolve, get 65% link with Luxray while Muneshige is in a different nation.
