Don't forget the Partner Cap Pikachu, guys. Need to have reached Akala Island (for Pikachu Valley where you pick it up) though.

It's QR code so just in the proper one for your area. Seems Korea is getting it late for some reason, but eh yeah should be active for EU/PAL at least.
 
Me every time in regular sun/moon lol, not looking forward to the trials now, might just be wondertrading forever :(

The key to most of the trials has been taking the totem out before it starts setting up strategies with its buddy. So pick a fast pokemon that can do a powerful attack and you will be good. Lurantis in particular is a disaster if you let it run more than a few turns.
 
I recommend that you guys save before picking up any of the Totem Pokemon gifts (your prize for collecting the stickers) from Samson Oak. That way you can reset for nature if you don't like what you get.

The Totem Pokemon can breed, but they only make regular size. So the Totems are one of a kind things. And unfortunately, there's version exclusives. Guess I'm gonna have to rely on cloners or people who don't care about the Totems so I can get them all for my all forms Living Dex I'm trying to build. I really hate it when they make it hard to get 1 of everything.
 
If anyone has a galvanize geodude they can trade me please shoot a PM!

Yeah I can imagine and I don't really have anything too good for it now ahha. Not looking forward to the water trial either :|

Oh well better train my team too much for e4...
 
On the topic of difficulty, I found Sun and Moon to be incredibly easy, only a little more difficult than X and Y. USUM so far seems to be more difficult than SM, but I think most of that comes down to my team, three dark types is not a good idea lol. The AI has certainly gotten a lot better, but they can't seem to find a way to get psychic types past my Zorua under an illusion lol.
Haha yess my zoruark totally carries me thru Soo much like necrozma both times and catching Mewtwo almong others

Get flyinium Z and use it on a lv 22-24 trumbeak or noibat. That'll take care of half the HP at least.
 
Regarding the gift totem Pok?mon from Oak: Is there any way to identify them apart from their size? I didn‘t see anything unique in their menu screens at first glance. I‘d like to be able to easily find them in the bank without nicknaming every single one: “TOTEM!“ and stuffing them in a box with the same name, lol.

You can't put the totem Pokemon into Pokemon Bank

Actually managed the water since i got that partnet cap pikachu, and did the marowak thing.

however yeah not looking forward to e4, no way i will have a fully iv trained level 79 team by then :(
 
I have a general question. I want to get a copy for me and my fiance buuuuuut we REALLY hated how long the tutorial & how much talking there was in sun and moon. Is there a lot less talking in this one? I want to get it for xmas presents.

Still the same. Constant talking, long ass, useless cut scenes. No bueno.

Yep.. I admit I like the roto powers but smh they could have skipped that and just added it as a mini-game somewhere else. still as handholding :^)

Ooooh... so they’re trapped in their generation of games, just like Spiky-eared Pichu and Cosplay Pikachu. Well, that‘s disappointing. I just assumed they wouldn‘t do that again, since even the different Hat Pikachu are transferable to the bank. But thanks for the answer, though :)

How different is USUM from the originals? Is it pretty much the same game with minor changes, or is it almost completely different? I'm thinking about getting it for Christmas, but I'm tight on money right now and don't want to get it if it's the same thing.

If you're looking for a completely new game then you're out of luck. Look at it as more of a "complete" version of Gen VII. It's more or less an updated version of Sun and Moon. If you're a Pokemon fan who loves all things Pokemon, then you're going to love this, but if you're more of a lowkey fan, played Sun and Moon, and looking for a "new" game to play, then you're outta luck. From the sounds of it, if I were you I wouldn't waste my time buying it.
 
Basically what Jake said. I mean they added some new characters and post-game content but if you want a fun game you could as well get XY/ORAS instead...
 
This game has stolen my attention from this site. That’s how much I’ve been into it.

I currently have Ultra Moon, but I’m getting things set up for how I play Ultra Sun (i.e. teaching my next starter Ice Beam before the first trial). What I planned on was making a team of only ice Pokemon for my character in Ultra Sun. There’s no ice specialist in Gen VII.

Yeah Ice is one of my favorite types, sounds like a good idea to me ;)
