I wrote ones for the ones in Rescue Team and Sky, they're in the OP. Sadly I haven't gotten into many level 5 dungeons in SMD, but I've had success with Drifblim
>>
>>24776095
Which ones specifically? It's difficult to make specific guides due to the random nature of the games but proper item usage is very important. Don't be afraid to use wands or orbs for instance.
>>
>>24776095
>Are there any guides for these low level dungeon yet?
Not really. The best you can do is glance at Serebii's listed dungeons and strategize around typing disadvantages.

Wands and alliance attacks also help you out of sticky situations.

Mainly the inability to restore HP naturally under sandstorm, as well as the spD boost. I'd assume weather related abilities are only preventing if the Pokemon having the ability actually holds it.

>>24776455
For Sandshrew/Sandslash you have to take a letter to Sandslash for Sandshrew. You'll connect with both

Bisharp is a reward for reaching one of the early ranks. I think it's Bronze or Normal. For Pawniard I think you have to connect with Bagon then do a mission for it or it might be an 'And...' connection.

Scyther is a gift when you reach Diamond rank. Or it was a travel mon, I can't remember for sure but I think it was a rank gift.

I don't know about Shiftry or Toxicroak. I don't think I have either of them yet

He connects to you when he feels like it in the post-game.

It's rumored that if you a shop's services long enough, the owner will likely join sooner, but I've barely used Meowth and he joined as soon as I talked to him for the second time, so I call BS on that.

Yeah, there's some weird requirements for the shopkeepers that aren't really told up front. You need at least one treasure for Cofagrigus. Hawlucha, Klefki, and Meowth seem to join at random. I know Kecleon demands an extremely high Species count before joining, but I don't know the exact amount needed.

What is it about Super that makes it harder than the original PMD? I haven't played since that one but the dungeons in Super at first disappointed me because of their average length but as I played more in just a simple 10-15 floor can be so brutal it makes me not want to touch the 20+ ones with a ten foot pole.
>>
>>24776986
Break system is ass. You could be 40+ levels above someone and they'll be on indefinite break just because fuck you. This isn't just some shitty troll either, I'm 68 and my level 28 scizor stays on break for 2+ times after one mission.
>>
>>24777011
I think the enemies are just stronger. I don't think you ever had to worry about so many Pokemon that could just casually OHKO or 2HKO you, while taking three or four of your attacks to kill.

Difficult isn't the word to describe this game. "Unforgiving" is a better word. If you know what you're doing, you'll breeze through it. But if you expect it to play just like the previous entries you're going to be in for a rude awakening by the time you reach Poliwrath River or battle Salamence.
>>
>>24777011
The hunger meter depletes faster, can't use the A attack so need to depend on moves with decent PP and damage. Enemies take more hits and do more damage. Partner AI isn't the best. speed = accuracy so if you're not a fast mon you're fucked until vitamins. Accuracy is piss poor even with good enough speed. More traps (in my experience). There are more, just can't think of them now.
>>
Is Sand Dune of Spirits the best place to grind Froakie?

Should I evolve to Frogaider before tackling it?
>>
>>24777044
Don't evolve unless you really want to, you don't get any stat boosts so it's not worth it unless you like the other forms more or want a more diverse typing/movepool.

In case it wasn't already common knowledge, the purple Sparkling Floors that are sometimes spawned when a Mega kills something with its basic attack aren't like the normal Sparkling Floors. Instead of a Gold Bar or other rare item, it'll contain common loot like emeras and Poké.

Side note, with how things are right now, there might be visual bugs where the Pokemon will *appear* to phase through walls (because the sprite isn't following the actual path of movement, it just slides into place, which works fine when enemy AI are moving only 1 tile a turn), not sure it matters that much since they move so fast

>>24777338
Clocks start at 0, and then the speed buff/debuff amount is added. If the clock is higher than 0, enemy takes movements until the clock reaches 0. If the clock is less than 0, 1 is added on every player movement until it is 0, and then the enemy can move a tile.

Once the clock is 0, the process is reset the next time the player moves.

Speed buff/debuff wearing off is done right at the end of a turn.

This sound about right to everyone? I think this would work just like the actual games.

Okay, can we be honest for a second?

This story is fun but really weak, especially compared to Explorers or PKMD1. Dont get me wtong, I love me some Persona Hearts. I can get behind DARKNESS as plot elements if done right but this was kind of stupid. Even the story bullshit in other pkmd games were kept to a minimum.

Also the story finale dungeon is 10 floor long? What does this game think I am? Casual? That's practically a light jog.

Epilogue is pretty short, only three dungeons with any sort of narrative. But still a bunch of legendaries to recruit and shit, that's always fun

But I miss shit like Spinda's quests in Rescue Team

10 Floors for a climactic final battle is not long as fuck

Also, half the game was you in school. Then suddenly you get dark matter trusted on you and the story quickly concludes itself.
That's like if Harry Potter took half the book to have anything magical happen. That's not good pacing.

That being said the first part of the game was fun. But they kind of rushed through the "real" story.


Also I guess I haven't gone through the epilogue so my view on the game may change.

Anyone out there, what's the epilogue like?

Oh shit! It just occurred to me that the Satiated Looplet+Ghost type Pokemom=infinite wall phasing. Been farming rainbow TM's left and right from poor Kecleon by phasing straight to the stairs and/or waiting for his crew to leave the room then just waltz off with the merchandise.
You could easily exploit this to get to Arceus too, since you wouldn't have to worry about hunger, enemies, or PP management, just phase your happy ass to the stairs.

PKMD 1 and 2 had hours of story and plenty of text that was good quality.

I wasn't expecting walls of text, but something a little more... Substantial compares to last games.

You have a point though, I guess I shouldn't be looking to a kids game for that. I guess I just was hoping they would keep track record.
>>
>>24777424
I agree with you that the story was a bit lopsided in it's telling and more focus on the dark matter portion would help greatly.

WANDS AND ORBS. It isn't even hard use the fucking items you've been saving up for the entirety of the game. Stayaway wands + warp wands + petrify wands and you're good.

Even with Wands and Orbs it's still about 30 floors of you slogging your ass off alone for no reason. The fact that you're apparently 10 levels under for the entire game is also a nice middle finger.

the thing is.. no one fucking knows what dark matter is, the only thing they know is pokemons turning into rocks and your partner's dream is to become an expedition member and make tons of friends, that's it. not even the legendaries expect dark matter to ruin their life

think of Harry Potter, the little shit knows nothing besides trying to survive in a magic school full of dicks and monsters then suddenly this nigger named voldemort starts fucking shit up

Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon is not "rushed", it's story is full of hidden secrets waiting to slap your face until you beg for more

Am I playing this game wrong? It seems like this game simply doesn't allow you to level up before forcing you into continuing in the story, and now I keep fainting in these fucking dungeons because I can't just go out and explore dungeons.
In the older games, I was able to explore the WHOLE dungeon, but now I have to run to the stairs.
Also hate that the 'plain' hitting move is stuck at doing 5 hp damage.
>>
>>24777519
>In the older games, I was able to explore the WHOLE dungeon, but now I have to run to the stairs

LOL what?
>>
>>24777525
Because all the pokemon are too strong, I have to just get to the stairs of the floor as soon as I can to just get through the dungeon. In the older games, I was able to explore the entire floor of the dungeon (like, completing the map on the bottom screen) but now, when I find the stairs, I just go to the next floor immediately.
>>
>>24777501
Yes but that doesn't mean the story has to be 3/4ths school/exploration society 1/4th Dark Matter shenanigans. If the story was a bit longer and Dark matter was expanded upon the story would benefit greatly. It's just like playing Animal Crossing where you build your village or whatever and then all of a sudden MEGA RESETTI shows up to wreck your shit or something. While that analogy is shit it conveys enough of what I'm trying to say: the game throws the idea of dark matter out at nearly the ending to the game. If the game was 35~ chapters or so long as compared to the 23? 22? chapters I think it would do much better.
>>24777519
If you haven't joined the exploration society you're doing it fine. plain attack being capped is aids, we know.
>>24777525
it's more of you're nearly forced to run straight to the stairs instead of looking for items/shops.

Yeah but can we get SOME exposition for dark matter? Some flashbacks? A reason it aligns with stars? Why it decided to just fucking disappear?

Having a big bad that even characters in the game shrug about what it is... That's just sloppy writing in my opinion.

I doesn't feel like a story of hidden secrets to me. It feels like a story with a poorly developed enemy.
>>
>>24777535
Honestly, I haven't been paying attention to the story because it sucks. I probably have joined the exploration society (that's ampherous' shit club right?) I didn't even know if that was an option. Basically, I'm at the point where you're about to fight Krookadile, but my main pokemon are level 25.
>>
>>24777538
I'd just die if I didn't do that. I was hoping this game would just let me go to dungeons as I please instead of forcing me into ones that my pokemon aren't strong enough to face.
>>24777539
Charmander and Pikachu.
>>
>>24777366
i've no idea how many times you can speed up yourself so i'm assuming a max of quadruple movement speed.
get a clock/tick that counts up.
one tick counts as one turn, or movement, i say.
if there's speed buff, allow movement whenever tick count is divisible by 12/[speed buff].
if there's speed debuff, allow movement whenever tick count is divisible by 12*[speed debuff+1], so 1 speed debuff = takes 2 normal turn to move.
if tick count isn't divisible by anyone's "internal clock" then nothing happens.
things happen in the dungeon only on tick counts that is a multiple of 12 (or something like that, depending on how many turns it takes for the effect to kick in)

may need to figure out how doing anything that is not moving affect this, since IIRC speed buffs only allow you to move faster, not act multiple times. i might be wrong though, can't remember for sure.
>>
>>24777551
You're actually a bit farther than me in level I think. I was 28 when I finished the game and you'll be above that more than likely when you beat the final boss. Ampharos's club is the society yeah. If you used Motivated mons you played the game right. I didn't and got my shit pushed in a bit.

>>
>>24777558
Yes, I used motivated ones. Am I just supposed to be an item whore? I didn't use items that much in the older ones, but it seems like I'm gonna be forced to use an item on every pokemon I face, and carry 10 reviver seeds with me in every dungeon.
Also, why the fuck do I have access to pokemon like salamence at level 50 so soon? This game is fucking dumb.

>>
>>24777565
from your solution it kinda sounds like once you have a speed buff you do several things in succession. i was wondering how would you proceed if there's like.. two enemies, one with triple speed and one with double speed. does the one with triple speed move three times then the one with double speed move twice or is it interspersed?
>>
>>24777564
[Spoiler]see but I'd eat that shit up[/spoiler]
>>
>>24777588
one moves, then the other enemy moves, it shouldn't affect the game all that much at all

the real point is how speed buffs relate between the player and AI, which is where that matters, which is the point of the clock in the first place

if you're saying that because MUH STORY, I just wanted some explanation on the stupid final boss that is mentioned for only a small portion of the game. If it was Yveltal by himself that would be fine since he turned fuckers to stone in the Diance movie but this thing just showed up and has no place in a pokemon game. Supposedly the antagonist thing in gates is the same way but I wouldn't know since I avoided it.

Good point, I'm just used to the older ones. I haven't played one since Explorers of Sky. They made a lot of shitty design choices in this one.

this is what i was thinking. i liked it since it gives some sort of linearity and also preserves priority of speed. you can pick a speed as the player's and AI's and kinda treat it as fast-forward to the player's next turn. i guess it kinda sounds complicated though.
