nintendo

the first direct sequel game in over a decade so it has something to build upon

I just did the hardest thing so far, which was winning the 10 battles in a row without healing

and now I'm doing the rogue megas

ohh that? waiting until im at least level 70-80 to try that

i have a range after the 7 attempts of 58 to 75 or so because certain mons stayed alive more reliably

i had to put leftovers on emboar and only had mega eelectross as an option

plus-move spam with florgess was crucial

ill keep that in mind after my break on it, after playing for a solid 5 days imma need a timeout first

and a poison type might be a hard requirement unless there's a status cure move in the game

i got scolipede

and froslass as well

oh i read that wrong

if i hadn't swapped out scolipede for my shiny garbodor it would have been easier

meganium was my choice

you can probably get by without a poison pokemon, but that would instead mean you only have 5 usable mons for most of it

(which i was doing anyway because garbodor died dealing with the poisoning pokemon)

did you manage to complete all the side quests?

less than 2 hours until the unnecessary airride direct

this direct really is wholly unnecessary, but the game looks way more fleshed out than Mario Kart World

oh huh, it's an hour long

still going and there was not much worth showing

the main this is there is a ton of customizability

and 3 more $50 amiibo

oh, the "story" mode too

and a demo

the end had dense stuff

ok I hit credits with all available side quests done

Final rating and thoughts?

arceus with this combat system would have potentially been the best pokemon game

the day/night cycle is terrible and has stolen multiple catches from me

unskippable 10 second cutscene with no purpose that interrupts gameplay and resets the area that you are actively exploring

Kirby Air Ride looks delightful

Shame you can only play it on Switch 2...

@xBrox_54 and others who play ZA. I am only missing trade evos, would anyone like to trade?

if you can help me get mine as well, im down

gimmie 1 sec

my mic isn't working

heres an afk battle farming strat that doesnt work

the box legendary fights are underwhelming

2 seconds after getting the shiny charm

nice

Why did you hide him

i probably didn't need to

that's just zygarde

being able to AFK farm shinies means my play time is going to end up extremely high

How long did it take you to 100%

I have afriend who completed all side quest and living dex in about 60 hours.
