Topic: Pokémon Scarlet & Pokémon Violet

Starting to believe there is no way to get Applin but though raids. Says they’re there on the map but it’s always either Pineco or Buonsweet. Rant over. 😂😒

@BrittGOAL14 They spawn in the West of Paldea, in a little ditch area.

@VoidofLight Was hoping for some insight. Can’t wait to get on and check it out, thanks!

Willing to trade Ceruledge for Armarouge.

My brother has "accidentally" cancelled his Pawmo's evolution and can't get it to evolve again. Does he have to walk another 1000 steps with it?

claps hands together

SO.

Like with Sword/Shield, I'll hold out for an all-in-one physical release, otherwise it's a skip.

I have finished my Pokemon Scarlet 2 weeks ago so I called a day and I can move on another games to be finished.

So I have a new use for the "surprise trade": I catch some duplicates, then trade them off. If I receive any that give me a new dex entry, I'll keep it. However, if I get any that are an evolved version of one that I already own, I'll trade the pre-evolved version away (excluding my starter, of course, as I have far too much emotional connection to give it away). Eevee is excluded from this rule since I'll have to get all their evolutions. I don't really plan to finish the dex 100% though. Also the only Pokémon I'll list with nicknames are the ones I caught myself, anything caught in surprise trading won't have nicknames on my Numbers sheet.

Feel free to ask if this doesn't make sense to you (which I'm sure it won't, my brain works weirdly)

@Fizza banger artwork like always but I'll do the same thing as Silly this time. 35€ is steep when I don't even know what I'm getting.

Don't need the Zoroark, the clothes are ugly. I can wait till fall, did the same with SwSh until Armor Island released, maybe the first wave will look meaty enough to get me confident they can give us two good chunks of new stuff again.

I'm slightly wary about the wording on the second half, they don't outright say the blueberry academy is in a new place. You'd assume it is but...i don't wanna get disappointed early lol

Iron Leaves is freaking difficult. Walking Surge was a once and done, but Iron Leaves just sweeps everyone.

Tonight I'm going to try to get Iron Leaves.

Phew, I finally got lucky and managed to catch one using an Iron Moth.

Funny how the Violet Paradox Pokémon have "Iron" in their names, but Iron Treads is the only one that's part Steel.

Yeah it’s a bit misleading. Specially considering they’re all clearly made out of metal.

Though I have to admit it would be very boring if they all were part steel!

It's already pretty boring how similar they all are to their original versions, tbf. The concept of having robot versions is cool, no doubt, but I wish they did more with the concept like with Bundle and now sort of with Leaves(?) having hidden "Features" so to speak.

Valiant is the best one exactly because they didn't just make the design look like a robot. Hands and Moth are also okay but the rest are meh.

I just need to catch Iron Valiant and I’ll have all the non-event Violet Paradox Pokémon.

@Eel
Grass is vulnerable with Fire, right?
Was Iron Leaves vulnerable with Fire attack?
I have my Ceruledge (Ghost + Fire) with level 75+.

@Anti-Matter iron leaf likes to build up attack bonuses, so it can easily one hit ok pretty much anything after a while. Ceruledge should be a good match up though.

My successful run with iron moth was pretty lucky, because it didn’t spam its psychic type move on me, and the one time it did KO me, it was just before it did the dreaded Tera power drain, so it didn’t affect me, and I could terastalize the moment iron moth was back in the battle, and broke the shield just in time.

All done!
