Side Topic: How goes recruiting them all?
I never did that before. Some Pokémon are just brutal, some of them unexpectedly (why the fuck is Pidgey so rare in Rescue Team).
I thought SMD's main story was going on forever, and then I realized it was almost over.
Reposting the Sky and Rescue boss list from previous thread. Sky's might be incomplete, I didn't make it.

>Purity Forest
How? I've never got one.
Answering my own side topic, I gotta dive into Southern Cavern for three Larvitar. Got fucked over last night, a Cubone I had just recruited ate it to Magnitude, and I had no reviver seeds for it. Thank fuck the Geodudes can't use Selfdestruct ever.
Running out of Escape Orbs, and I need more Pierce Orbs, been pierce hurling gummis through 2 of my 3 Cleffas
>>24890589
>tfw recruited all 3 Pidgey on one trip
I lucked out. Magikarp/Feebas just never appear, also.
>>24890593
You have to actually beat Purity Forest to get missions there I think. Not that any sane man would ever take missions there, especially escorts.
>>24890596
I'll throw these into the pastebin
>>24890598
Escorts for the last floors of Purity Forest have the best rewards, though.
They're all difficulty 15 (and 16? although that probably caps at 15), which gives 2000 points; an amount that is otherwise never given.
>>24890586
I recruited 'em all on Red Rescue Team. For Explorers of Sky, I decided to only recruit: Gen IV Pokemon; PMD starters from Rescue, Time/Darkness, Sky (Cubone, Phanpy, Munchlax, etc.); and Legendaries from every gens.
Unrelated but bugging me, how do I fix pic related?
>>24890604
>implying that matters when i have like 40k rescue points
You're better off taking "find X item near floor 92 of Buried Relic" since you can enter with the item, Escape Orb out, and get the easiest 700 points or so ever.
>tfw that apparently Magma Cavern Pit gives the second largest amount of money, being only beaten by Wish Cave 71+ and Fantasy Strait 27+
Meanwhile, Tiny Woods gives the least; not that surprising.
>>24890616
>magma cavern pit is literally 1 actual floor
Also, what am I supposed to spend my riches on anyways? Kecleon Shops in Western Cave I can just rob, and Joy Seeds in town are really rare
Does your partner's gender affect anything if their species doesn't have a physical gender difference?
Anybody have a list of spawn rates for Blue Rescue Team? curious as to how badly I'll get screwed
>>24890629
As far as I know, no.
Why are fox smiles best smiles for protecting...In Sky you have Vulpix and in SMD you have Fennekin
A successful recruitment trip is always nice, but now I need to go the full 50 floors for Metal Coats
>>24890641
>and then you have Eevee in Sky
Not a fun partner to have
>>24890646
Eevee is hard mode for smile protecting
>due to a size rating of 4, you have to make at LEAST 2 trips 21 floors into Magma Cavern for Onix

>>24890707Those were me and my partner
is there a dungeon with more than 99 floors yet?
Ok /tr/ainers, finally egg hatched. Mission was either in Crevice Cave or Blizzard Island, I don't remember. Checked which pokemons can be recruited there and guess what? Slakoth evolution can be recruited in Crevice Cave, and I got Slakoth from egg. If this repeats few times in a row, we'll be sure that egg always gives one of pokemons recruitable in the dungeon you're doing the mission in.
I also saved before hatching the egg and restarted. Pokemon is always the same, but egg moves are random. This makes getting pokemons with your desired egg moves much easier. Most likely all you have to do is:
>take ??? reward missions from dungeon that spawns pokemon you want
>get egg
>do missions till the day of hatching
>restart to get egg move you want
>>24890725
>>do missions till the day of hatching
Or just enter the dojo with no items, select Give Up, and check the Day Care. It's even better since the dojo is literally 30 feet from Chansey
>>24890586
I'm on 606. Still waiting for Shaymin to learn Air Slash.
>>24890730
Can do as well. Still, I need gummis and cash for it so I take missions. Also game isn't that dull when you visit different dungs. We all know that once you beat the story, game is so repetitive it hurts.

http://www.gamefaqs.com/gba/929408-pokemon-mystery-dungeon-red-rescue-team/faqs/40256
It's for Red Rescue Team, but I suppose Blue's won't be much different.
Some Pokémon are fucking rare, though.
>>24890713
>mirrored Bulbasaur
Greninja wannabe.
>>24890776
>chansey has a .86% spawn rate on floor 50 of Joyous Tower
Yeah, no fucking way on earth I'm putting up with that shit. Jirachi's a better choice. I'll do more of those runs once I recruit the easier to get mons
>>24890586
are there dungeons or missions that make the excavation looplet more profitable?
I'm barely finding any gold sparkles, but I'm still mostly doing the recruiting missions, most are between 3 and 5 stars
>>24890776
>>mirrored Bulbasaur
>Greninja wannabe.
that was actually a very nice attention to detail, because the heat spot position changes depending on the side
they could've just ignored it and mirrored it
>>24890787
Just remember to get all Unown before Jirachi.
Jirachi's like "you want all of these Unown to be counted separately, rite?"
>>24890788
I want to say the harder it is, the better.
>>24890793
>go to recruit jirachi after wishing once, and getting rankup
>it KO's itself with double edge
>have to wish, may as well get Something Good
>Unown L
Bullshit on a tier so high I couldn't even get mad. It's not a mistake I'll make again, so instead of Unown, I can get Silcoon!which happened last time
so I'm already on chapter 9 how do I leave the shit island guys help pls
>>24890798
I may want to restart the game (probably both Rescue Team and Sky) and begin anew, now that I know more how the games work.
I suppose that this time, I won't be as rekt by Primal Dialga and Dark Crater as few years ago... at least that's what I hope.
>>24890811
Just don't take Phanpy or Eevee. You're basically forced to evolve them in the postgame due to those tiny movesets, and evolving your starters in PMD just feels wrong.
Also, if you need rescues, I can handle any rescue at all
>>24890818
I got Machop and Charmander for Rescue and Explorers; I always took up Pika as teammate.
I don't know what I'll get this time. (The funny thing is, once to test something at the beginning, I randomly plew through quiz... only to get Machop. Again.)
>>24890824
Don't count on Blizzard at all. I spent a ton of time looking for a Blizzard TM. At long last, I found one in a wall, used it on Wooper, and felt crushing disappointment when I found out it's garbage. It hits 1 space in front of you, it's more or less an ultra rare Ice Punch instead of the room clearer it is in Sky.
I took Mudkip/Cyndaquil this run, and promptly abandoned them for said Wooper in the postgame
>>24890840
Yeah, I know.
Blizzard is one of the few moves that got changed in Explorers.
Also, I am fairly sure that Rapid Spin does not remove Spikes in Rescue. Or I fucked up.
>>24890787
I don't know if my math is right, but at a 16.9% recruit rate, for every pokemon spawned, each one is about a 0.05% chance for it to be the Chansey you'll be recruiting. That's 1/2000 chance for a spawned mon on floor 50 to be the recruited Chansey. Not only this, but you have a limited time to recruit one before the wind blows you out or hunger kills you.
Getting a shiny in XY's Friend Safari is a 1/512 chance. You would get 3 shinies on average in the time it takes you to recruit ONE Chansey. And you need to do this twice, while everything is trying to kill you, including the dungeon itself.
That is, of course, if my math is right.
>>24890875
Good luck if you take on the challenge, as you can see by the above, Chansey is pure bullshit.
>>24890880
That recruit rate is, of course, assuming you brought along the friend bow. You won't be getting recruit rate bonuses from level, no way, because you get nothing until level 30-31.
>>24890880
>3 shinies on average
1/512^3 does not equal that.
What math is that?
>>24890924
you have nearly 4x the chance of getting a shiny in the FS than a spawned mon being the Chansey that'll join you. It's closer to 4 shinies, but with encounters taking longer in the main games, i just said 3. I'm no expert on math, and I just did this all on a calculator in like 2 minutes.
Regardless, the point I was trying to make was how abysmal your chances are, and that you're better off with Jirachi twice.
>>24890880
Well, I am killing myself by these things:
1. Watching an old episode of Pokémon when our dubbing was shit (Indigo League; it got a little better into Johto and the first season of Hoenn which we dubbed. Then they hired a decent team for Sinnoh onwards, which shows.) For reference, Water Gun was Water Whip, Parlyz Heal was Healing Gas, Flamethrower was Fire Tornado, Thunderstone was Stony, Thunder Thundering Stone... you know where this is going. One of the few translations that were good was Moon Stone, oddly enough.
2. Stun Spore made Bulbasaur unable to fight. EARLY ANIME, MAN.
3. Buffering is rather slow with ads.
4. Ads that buffer. Why even these exist.
>>24890948
>2. Stun Spore made Bulbasaur unable to fight. EARLY ANIME, MAN.
dude, spore immunity to grass is gen6 mechanics
>>24890948
Thunderstone was Stony Thunder, Thundering Stone*
(FYI, we have something that is literally called thundering mixture, and it refers to Oxyhydrogen)
>>24890951
Unable to fight/=Immune to status.
He just recalled the thing, as if it were [s]dead[/s] fainted.
How do I connect with the shopkeepers?
>0.62% spawn rate for Exeggcute on floor 14 of howling forest
This should be illegal
>>24890994
>1.5% spawn rate of Pidgey
>Magikarp averages around 2.1%
Rescue Team, where Com Mons are no longer!
>>24891008
What's worse is they don't let you recruit from Tiny Woods for NO good reason. Not a one of those pokemon are even good fully evolved and yet you gotta go to Wish Cave and Joyous Tower for a fucking Sunkern and Wurmple.
Wind blew three times on 14f, the only floor with exeggcute, didn't see a single one.
>>24891012
>>24891008
>>24890994
>>24890787
>There are people who preferred the old recruitment method over the connection orb when you got shit like this
>>24891015
Connection orb is better, but limited missions are sad
it's not even hard to imagine that pokemon will still have issues after connecting with them...come on
>>24891015
I think the problem is that missions are no longer randomly generated.
Plus, I am fairly sure the things are more reasonable in Explorers.
Fun fact: Some Pokémon in Explorers appear only after you're entirely done with plot.As in, Manaphy tells you about Marine Resort.Like Dusknoir; because plot reasons.
Haven't beaten the game yet but is recruiting Spheal post game?
>>24891015
There was some satisfaction had in recruiting mons, but some of it was just fucking HORRIBLE. there's no excusing these encounter rates.
Next game should have something like the Orb, but allow dungeon recruits and randomly generated missions.
>>24891120
Oh, as well as a way of guaranteeing recruitment. I think Gates had it in the Gifts, but I never used them
>>24891123
>Friend Areas for 721 Pokémon
Friend Areas were a cool idea, but execution could be better.
Anybody know if there's a way to get rid of the sunlight in the Primal Groudon battle in SMD? I feel like Truant Wand + Rainy Orb won't work but I dont know.
>>24891015
>>24891039
Things are more reasonable in Explorers mostly because of not having to finish the dungeon to complete recruitment, and allowing recruitment with a full team. And also not having bullshit locations for shitmons.
Doesn't Spacial Rift/Deep Spacial Rift have bullshit spawn rates for some pokemons, anyway?
>>24891177
Yeah I think Porygon was really awful
>>24891020
>>24891039
so all we need is new randomly generated missions for already recruited mons
this time maybe you could even take them and have control over them or have them unavailable until you do that mission
I don't know. There doesn't seem to be a similar guide for Explorers; at least not for Time and Darkness.
At least making it to the rest points of split dungeons like Mt. Thunder's counts as making out.
What exactly does Hydreigon say in Super?I read a while ago here that it's basically confirmed that the Gates and Super MC are the same person, but in Gates, there are multiple humans.
Magnezone could have had some more presence in the game and be a source of random catching outlaws missions.
>>24891201
>need to use X pokemon for a mission because reasons
>but can not because it's lost a trinket in a dungeon again
>>24891216
Hydreigon says something likeHello again! Oh, you don't recognise me?'
>>24891221
Yeah, that's what I remembered. Nothing else?
>>24891224
They only have 2 lines, really.
I just used him, he says something like
>"Hey, it's me! Hydreigon! What, you don't remember me? Oh no!"
When he's with you in a dungeon and is below half HP, he says:
>"We need to power through this!"
>>24891241
noted
thanks lad
>>24891176
Ended up testing this out myself. If you use a Truant Wand the Harsh Sunlight gets put on a timer, once it goes away you can set up whatever weather you want. I Hydro Pumped Groudon twice after that and it was over.
>>24890993
plz respond
>>24891358
Is Groudon always Primal? Or does it switch?
>>24891400
In the fight it stays Primal the whole battle. Same with Kyogre.
Alright bros, filled out the Connection Orb now its time to get Arceus. Any tips or advice?
>>24891411
But I mean, when you finally get it and use yourself.
>>24891430
Oh I believe its like a regular Mega unfortunately. You have to find an Awakening
>>24891429
The most important bit of advice: make sure you actually accept the mission before climbing the tower.
>mfw at least one anon here climbed the entire thing only to realize they forgot to accept the mission
>>24891443
I wont make that mistake at least, I dont think I could bring myself to touch the game again if that happened.
>>24891429
I went into this thinking it was a level 1 dungeon. Thats a huge relief.
>Grudge trape activated
Thats just mean Chunsoft. 3 Elixirs and a Reviver seed down the drain.
>>24891511
>Grudge Trap
You mean it's back?
fucking christ.
>>24891518
Its the first time Ive seen it, but yeah they apparently exist in Destiny Tower. Along with Milk Drink Miltanks in Monster Houses. This is going to be a long 99 floors.
>>24891528
>>24891511
warp and guiding wands man
>>24891530
Looks like thats the plan for a while. Even with maxed out stats (except HP) this isn't a cakewalk. Anybody attempting this should bring lots of Reviver Seeds, Wands, and Elixirs.
>>24891528
99 floors in the older PMD games was pretty damn long but in PSMD is just wack
>wait until i can't in howling forest twice
>see exactly 0 piles of eggs each time
Is there a way to make it so that in SMD swapping places with a teammate is the default action instead of pushing them? My muscle memory keeps betraying me.
So Destiny Tower decided to give me a big "fuck you" by giving me a Monster House with Mantines, Unburden Drifblims,and something that used Gravity. I wasted a good 10-12 Reviver Seeds. I don't know what I was supposed to do there, I just kept getting Hydro Pumped while missing the Minimized Drifblims blocking me, Apparently Stayaway Wands and Warp wands have no effect under Gravity. Im on floor 44 now, but with 2 Reviver Seeds left Im not sure how much further I can make it. Gotta love Mystery Dungeon games man.
>>24891241
how do you talk to pokes in dungeons?
>>24891748
You have to keep pressing A while facing them. They'll keep posing, but eventually they'll actually talk with you.
>>24891176
Just use Lilligant dude. She's a monster in the sun.
>>24891725
RIP Floor 55 to a Muk's Gunk Shot from off the screen. Id ask for Resue but frankly I need to prepare more. I fucked myself big time by trying to muscle through the Monster Houses. Good luck to anyone else trying this, bring extra Reviver Seeds.
>>24891770
Is that a Hitmonlee?
Welp finally beat the main quest/epilogue and removed a bunch of filters from /vp/. I'm finally free to do things on my own pace without fearing spoilers. And to chill in here as well.
>>24892050
what'd you think of it?
Got my ass kicked by a monster house en route to Rayquaza: can someone help me out?
>>24892064
The game or the story?
I liked most of the changes though I miss things like IQ and probably will miss being able to make a permanent teamwith my fav mondue to vacation thing. I'm not sure about the recruitment method though, it's straightforward but I'm fearing what will happen later when I recruit everyone.
As for the story, well, it's got me a lot involved and I felt with was on part with previous PMDs (I skipped Gates though).What really caught me off-guard was losing the partner at the end when it was like 4AM here and I just wanted to finish the main story to sleep happily. Slept with a fucking weight on me, but glad to have him back.
Also it might be me but this game feels much harder than EoS, I'm having to rely much more on items.Especially the two last bosses. Mega TTar used like 3 Reviver Seeds, and even lost once to Yveltal because Serperior would get OHKO'd by Oblivion Wing every time, though it was a breeze the second time with the correct items, no Reviver Seeds spend. But holy shit.I'm even afraid of battling expeditions it feels like everything hits like a truck kek.
Just picked up this game with my Christmas cash.
Got Chespin, who's a good partner overall or for chespin specifically.
Also tips in general for this game? I've played and beaten blue and sky but never got gates. How does this game fair in the mystery dungeon lineup
>>24892248
Chespin is probably the best starter overall because of its fantastic movepool, but it never hurts to have a partner with other ranged attacks to help snipe. Water types and Fennekin (psybeam) are good options.
There's a wondermail code list in the OP as well that contains TMs you can get, so you can get ice beam, energy ball and maybe flamethrower pretty early on if you want?
Guys help me I just started Super MD and I've fallen in love with my partner already
My little Riolu can't be the cute
>>24892248
Best one since Sky. As for difficulty, you just need to git gud with items. Farm at Pelipper island if you must. My setup was Totodile/Fennekin and Fennekin in particular was good because she started with PSYBEAM. Very nice move to have alongside ember.
>>24892291
The crazyness does fit a Riolu, huh? Just remember to protect that dream.
I went Riolu with Oshawott partner, Team Blue all the way.
>>24892280
>>24892292
Alright cool, seems like the general consensus by you two is Fennekin.
I always horded and and stockpiled on items, never ending up using them. Should I still do that or just use them willy nilly how I see fit.
>>24892360
USE
THEM
Super punishes hoarding. If you can get a kill with an Aliiance, do that, but don't be afraid to wave those wands around like you're a DnD Wizard.
>>24892381
Good to know, what do wands do?
>>24892398
What they say on the tin. Petrify wand petrifies the enemy in front of you.
>>24892360
Same, I even beat EoD on my first time without using Orbs and some other things because never had curiosity to use them. But they made things harder here and you'll have to use them. Really.
>>24892381
>tfw I only found out after the main story that wands go in a long straight line instead of just your front
I thought it was only if you had Wand Expert. I could've saved Orbs and Reviver Seeds if I knew this earlier.;_;
But yeah this.
>>24892398
There's wands to petrify, put to sleep, show stars, etc, there's a lot of them similarly to Orbs, but they go in a straight line instead, and they affect your partners if they're in front of you. The thing is they stack like Rocks/Sticks so you can have a lot of them.
>>24892333
They hyperness of the Partner seems to really fit Riolu and Fennekin
This game was pretty much made for the top dogs
>>24892333
I chose Froakie myself, so yeah Blue Team rules. I must protect that smile.
>>24892333
>>24892539
The quiz gave me Riolu partner as well, with Mudkip MC
TeamCyan
>>24892411
And with Wand Expert they can hit a pokemon not in any of the 8 directions. Does the arcing mean they also go over your own team?
>>24892615
Yes, just watch out for the Warp wand. You can TPK yourself with it
>>24892536
And don't forget Froakie.
>>24892695
Is that higher res or something?
>>24892695
That's funny, I was just thinking how it seemed very Chimchar.
>>24892711
Yeah, I used a website to enlarge my image here:
http://waifu2x.udp.jp/
It's pretty useful.
>>24892731
I love that site. My wallpaper range has like tripled thanks to it.
>>24892190
The ending really was an emotional gut-punch. Mystery Dungeon always gets me and I let my guard down.>credits roll while you cry alone ;_;
The game was definitely MUCH harder.Yveltaltook me a dozen tries and I had to abuse the "give up" option to take down the final boss - you start right before it and all the damage you did remains. Thanks random gamefaqs guy who told me this while I was looking for strategies in desperation to avoid watching 5 minutes of cutscenes for the 10th time.
Battling expeditions are no problem if you just bring an orb or two. Totter Orb is my friend.
I'm just about to fight Dark Matter in SMD.
I'm actually kind of disappointed. The gameplay is good but all the dungeons so far are really shallow,Tree of Lifeis no Temporal Tower. And the story isn't as great IMO.
I'm so glad SMD is hard
>>24892792
Yeah, the final dungeon is really lackluster compared to...every other final dungeon in the series, probably because it's so darn short.
The final boss more than makes up for it by being a fun fight. Just be aware that it changes types after it does a certain attack and you'll be fine.
>>24892777>credits roll with triumphant music while you cry alone
>>24892826
>Just be aware that it changes types after it does a certain attack
Man, I remember that messing me up hard when it did that. All my moves did nothing to it so I had to just let my partner slug at it
>>24892826
Don't Alliance attacks ignore types? Didn't affect me too much
>>24892849
Alliance is like a Type Bulldozer, so it sounds useful
>>24892826
Well I already died once on him, so I'm trying to get it right this time.
>>24892849
You don't want to be close enough to it to do alliances either way
>>24892176
I just realized the picture got rotated godddd dammit
>>24892896
Doesn't matter, that's what the corner squares are for
>>24892895
>Not being up close and personal with Dark Matter
It really doesn't do that much damage
>>24892777
>dozen tries
Wow that's a lot. I freaked out so much at my first attempt that I brought like 8 Reviver Seeds, but I didn't use a single one in that fight. I equipped SpDef Looplet to me and my partner (fuckOblivion Wing), used 3 Quick Obs, went straight to his face because didn't know Wands worked from afar, though wasn't a big deal because I had to go past the other fags anyway, Truant Wanded him and proceeded to Blast Seed the fuck of of him. Iirc Serperior could tankOblivion Wingwith SpDef Looplet (or he just didn't use it at all, or I had Toughness, don't remember) so after I ran out of Blast Seeds I just kept attacking and my partner healed me whenever he put me to my knees.I also fucked up by accidentally not adding Ampharos to my team which could help against Yveltal with alliance, but wasn't a big deal.
What's your team btw?Serperior sucks to fucking hard against him. I feel Snivy's quite limited to the game overall, his movepool is very poor though Growth is nice, and Fennekin covered me a lot with his Psybeam
It's funny becauseDark Matterwas way easier but took like 2 Reviver Seeds becauseRIP buffed evolution.
>battle expeditions
Yeah I use them but having played so much of EoD/EoS I feel like a scrub depending so much on them lel. But I'm getting used since apparently it's the standard now.
>>24892914
>around 35-40 damage to two 60something pokemons
>>24892990
>Tfw you defeat both stages of DM on your first try while only using 2 reviver seeds
Just do a lot of damage and the fight is pretty short
>>24893006
I ended winning it at the second try by spamming Water Gun and Ice Beam with Mudkip and telling Riolu to get away from there if it got too close, while it kept using Quick Attack and Vacuum Wave.
Only used one reviver seed in the second try, too, and of course some blast seeds were thrown.
>>24893051
I must've been lucky since other from the alliance attacks, both me and my partner were right near DM and we just destroyed it
Riolu/Fennekin's a great combo
>>24892977
My team was Pikachu and Fennekin, and because I used a progress device, I was stuck 1 floor away from the boss and unable to go back and gather items. I just kept trying and then I remembered Alliance attacks existed and found a Totter Orb on 15F of the dungeon and won it with my partner dead and 5HP left on Pikachu.
Basically the game got a lot easier when I stopped being so stingy about items. I wonder if Pelipper Island could have helped me gathering items too. Oh well, I overcame the odds and did it and it felt great
>>24893101
>Progress Device
Wow I never used them, I always sold them. I wasn't sure about using Orbs because the last two bosses seem to have some kind of protection against statuses if I got it right. I also often forget about Alliances, though I preferred to deal with him alone while my partner dealt with the other guys there.Btw I shouldn't have wasted so much money by buying all passes at once since they'd unlock after the credits anyway. Well that's what I get for isolating from any PMD info on web in fear of spoilers
I don't even really want to play the epilogue after that ending
>>24893146
Me neither. If you can actually use one and reload with impunity I might use them now that I'm in the postgame. The sandy dune hill of spirits had me in the edge the whole time despite having type advantage.
>>24893224
Just take a break for a day or two
>>24893146
I bought all the passes at once too, so I could level up a bit with side missions. Then I decided I'd do juuuust one more story mission and ended up getting dragged through 20 story missions with no breaks until the end of the game...

My nigga. I randomly checked pixiv after a while and as soon as I ran into that gallery I saved and instantly left pixiv because spoilers risk.I can't read this shit either.
>tfw before playing I was certain to use this combo and considered both ways of main/partner, but went as Snivy for main because he is more of a close bro while Fennekin is more of a recent favorite
Best choice ever. That partner personally must look unfitting as hell on Snivy.
>>24893497
I didn't play on my 3DS, I actually watched my friend play a bit of the beginning chapters before he loaned the game to me. I already knew I was going to go Snivy/Fennekin as my favorite starters, but with the partner's lil' kunt personality it was absolutely fucking solidified.
Besides, in strategy games I've made it a point to have my main character make the most neutral and uninterested expressions as possible.
Finally got the required 2 Feebas and Magikarp each! Now I never have to go to Waterfall Pond again.

Man I've already written enough smut this year. I don't need to make overzealous snake hugs with protected smiles a part of my autism roster.
So for PSMD is it just the post game that's hard or the story as well? I know I cheesed my way through the Salamence fight and can't decide if the game is hard or I am shit. Also, where is the best place to grind for revive seeds?
>went into western cave to recruit
>forgot an escape orb once again
>>24893596
It IS hard. Read some posts above on people telling their experiences. Get used to abusing items or prepare to be assfucked even on the story bosses.
>>24893609
I keep two escape orbs on me at all times just so that won't happen.

>>24893631
I remember this rule from Etrian Odyssey. Never thought another game would have me use it.
Thank god Western Cave has Reviver Seeds out the ass. I'm not sure if there are even Escape Orbs to be found here.
>>24892826
I found the final boss extremely easy compared toYveltal
>>24893734Yeah Yveltal is kinda the "true" final boss, he's even the last one registered on the save. I was even expecting DM to be some kind of "cutscene boss" like the rival on ORAS credits.
I beat the main story. Should I evolve my starters? Also, I'm trying to max all their stats, is it worth it? Torchic already has like 200 attack but I don't even like Torchic/Blaziken.
>>24893752
Evolution ups stats by +0
Just went through Thrash Dungeon. Does it have any purpose?

Now they make more sense. Also they're both guys.

>Enemy Pokemon can catch your shit and throw it back at you
So in PSMD you can recruit every pokemon right? Including each evolution stage? So there's no need to evolve anyone including your starter? I want to have one of each species and the limited recruiting with this new method is throwing me off.
>>24893824
yeah you even get an extra starter in case you evolve your starters

I see Froakie the way the anime characterizes him, not really hyper-positive.
I see Totodile, Chikorita, Torchic, Tepig, Fennekin and Chespin with that sort of personality. Plus Riolu of course.
>>24893828
You get an extra starter? How about your partner? Cuz I'd love to evolve mine then.
>>24893843

That being said, you get one of everything. Like I have two Chespin and Cyndaquil

How many dungeons are there that are just a bunch of one legendary running around? I know about Geoglyph and Meteoritr Crater, are there any others?

Got through Western Cave without using one Reviver Seed, but I more or less wasted an hour. At least I got Irons for Tyrouge
Can I evolve my character before heading to Xatu?
>>24894046
Nope.
You can evolve almost immediately after that storyline though.
>>24894046
nope
>>24893899
Those are the only two that I know of.
>>24890641
>implying monkey smiles arent the best
chimchar ftw.
These Dungeons don't mess around. Immediately after entering the Dungeon, Raichu gets Pin missiled to death.
These games are marketed to kids by sociopaths
>you need 5 stars of IQ to evolve things like Cleffa and Azurill
>some of the pokemon that need this are rather far into Joyous Tower
Why is this allowed?
>>24894457
Rescue Team didn't seem planned out very well in those regards. Some Pokemon seem to have been placed in arbitrary late-postgame dungeons with abitrary spawn rates.
>>24894471
>ponyta is on floor FIFTY-SEVEN of Joyous Tower
>Exeggcute is found on one floor in the entire game, at a miniscule spawn rate
>Skitty is 24 floors into Joyous Tower
I feel like Joyous Tower was the dungeon where they went "fuck it we'll just throw these pokemon all in here, fuck putting them in places that make sense.
That, and some happiness evos are just level based here

Recruiting them all in Blue is becoming a massive slog now, Sky is all but 100%, and there's nothing left in Super. What do I do now?
>>24894956
Hone your abilities and invent art to express how much smiles need to be protected

Why do people praise SMD?
Story was worse than Sky
Connection orb is fucking trash
No expedition rankings
No random bulletin board requests
No hurling pebbles/sticks
Traps poof after use
Can spam wands and orbs to cheese everything
Got so bored with this game. Sold it to buy Bayonetta 2
>>24895229
I enjoy both games
>>24895229
>Traps poof after use
How is this a bad thing? Partners making a fucking conga line for that PP Zero Trap you just stepped on was THE worst part of the older games
>>24895229
>No hurling pebbles/sticks
Did you even play the game nigger?
Does anything actually change if you beat the bosses you're meant to fail to in SMD?
>>24895522
There aren't any bosses you are supposed to fail in the game. There are bosses you can fail and still progress, but none that you are meant to fail.
If you lost to Jirachi, then you weren't using items properly.
I found this funny epic meme and I thought you guys would enjoy it
>>24895522
I don't know, I failed all of them ;_;
>>24892280
I'm Tepig with Chespin, but I want to know, doo you need to use your starter? I've just got to lapras and have much better pokemon I could use instead
>>24895632
You're stuck with them for any story missions but other than that no.
who /ChespinTotodile/ here
anyone know if someones uploaded the rest of the pokemon and not just all the starters
>>24895919
I'm slowlynotworking on it anon. I've been pretty busy the past couple days, but I should be finished with some of the other sprite sheets within a couple days.
>>24895925
As long as your working on itat some pointthats okay with me
>>24895936
I plan to have the first general NPC sheet done by this time tomorrow. It will have all the Gen 1 important NPCs, unimportant NPCs, and megas, in that order.
>>24890880
I am the anon that is taking this challenge >>24890811
Any idea for the team name? And maybe tips on what is good to start with?

I know this is bait but
>Story was worse than Sky
>Connection orb is fucking trash
Your opinion nigger.
>No expedition rankings
>No hurling pebbles/sticks
Literally play the game before spewing bullshit.
>No random bulletin board requests
Yeah I agree with this one.
>Traps poof after use
Did you really enjoy your partners running into a revealed trap for no reason?
>Can spam wands and orbs to cheese everything
Literally every PMD can be cheesed, actually this is the only one that highly encourages you to use items because things are harder.
>>24895522
Huh, you could fail bosses? Damn I could've saved a few Reviver Seeds if I knew this.

>>24895613
it's funny how true it is
I kinda don't want to look through the FAQ or the thread for spoilers, but I just got aLv 50 Salamence, Lv 55 Dragonite, and a Lv 19 Victini (that can learn searing shot) in SMD. Doesn't this just break the game, or is there a catch?
>>24896257
you can't use them every time you go to explore if there's a big level difference. The bigger the level difference between your MC and other pokemon the less often you can use them
it gets explained in game pretty early on
>>24896257
The bigger the level difference between your starters and the mon(s) you take out, the longer and more frequent their breaks are. Sure, you can use them in a dungeon every once in a while, but they'll have a really long "cooldown." Not sure if it works the same for legendaries like Victini, but they should logically have longer-than-usual cooldowns, too.
I just bought myself SMD and am at the whole ghosts arc. In regards to evolution, is it the same as the previous games where it's post-post game? Also, is it possible to nickname party members or am I stuck with their default names (Axew, etc)? Are HA available?
So far it hasn't hooked me on as much as Sky did.
>>24896277
Not him but does that mean if the pokémon is at same level or under your MC, it never breaks? Or it's just less likely?
>>24896307
I think they still do but it's very infrequent and only lasts for a day. I'm not 100% sure though
>>24896298
HA unfortunately are a thing. Apparently, they were never a thing in GtI either.
Evolution is post-game.Thankfully, the only thing that you need to do is be the right level for any level evolutions; other are apparently free...?
I don't think you can nickname them.
>>24896318
HA unfortunately aren't a thing.*
>>24896318
>no HA
I guess no contrary Serperior or Protean hijinks. Thanks.
How long is the main story? Am I far from the "end", consideringyou couldn't evolve until you beat Dakrai in Explorers of Sky, instead of when you just "saved" the world by defeating Primal Dialga/Dusclops.
Is there a TM shop/orb available, or is that shop the only one? Did they do away with gummis?
>>24896337
Yeah you're pretty far, but not too much if you play non-stop obviously.
>TM shop
There'll be later, you'll spot it.
>Gummis
Yeah they're gone. RIP IQ, I miss it.
>>24896337
They got away with IQ in the Gates to Infinity. The last game that had it was the WiiWare's Adventure Squad (which, to my knowledge, didn't remove anything but actually added things)Then Super got away with a lot of held items and replaced them with Looplets.
Also evolution is obviously post-game, after you fix the shenanigansof your partner disappearing.
>>24896355
>WiiWare's Adventure Squad
Are those games actually good? If so are there translated versions of them? I hardly heard anything from them at all, they kinda feel like "the forgotten PMDs".
>>24896355
>>24896352
Ah alright, I never played GtI so I didn't know . It's a shame they removed Gummis, held items, and even nicknaming party members.
>>24895919
Not >>24895925 but meanwhile here you have a rearrangement of Gates' non-starters and evo/Pichu I've done yesterday.
For Gates starters and evo/Pichu, see >>24890706
>>24890694
>>24890701
>>24890706
>>24896379
Why are they all in jpg and not png?
>>24896366
There aren't any translated versions to my knowledge.
The plot is rather simple to my knowledge; first you search someone that got lost, then later on I think you'll go search food for the village... and it leads to quarrels... and you need to do something more, I think? I am not sure, didn't finish everything yet.
There are 3 versions, each with 15 dungeons. I think all Pokémon are only in one version, besides the Pokémon that you could get by now-lost Wi-Fi events.
Sounds bad, right? But you can link them into one save! The games have a total of 4 save files, for 4 players.
It's not a masterpiece, but I found it to be nice enough to be a time waster.Just be aware that this is where enemy evolution was introduced. It can happen as early as second dungeon, I think.
8 decides my team name. It's SMD by the way
