POST TEAM NAME
Post which Pokemon you and your partner are
What did you think of your choice?
>>24897550
I forgot to switch that thing on.
Sorry, anon-kun.
>>24897563
Currently I am Bulbasaur and Squirtle of Team DixPix, doing this 'recruit 'em all' run.
>>24897563
Woops
Chespin+Cyndaquil
I like it
>>24897563
The Shrike Team
Riolu/Fennekin
Honestly, better than expected
>>24897563
Dragonfire.
Charmander/Treecko.
Treecko was actually the first result I got on BRT's quiz, and Charmander the one I actually went with after I reset because I bought the game and stopped playing on an emulator.
>>24892176
Still here if anyone can give me a hand. I'd do it myself but I've been busy with family.
>>24897563
I don't have a team name yet. I'm a squirtle with a chimchar partner. 3 decides my teamname
>>24897636
The Steam Team
>>24897563
froakie/fennekin because why the fuck not.I somehow beat poliwrath river on the first try. maybe it was because I met only two heliolisks and the poliwrath bros were being retarded and spammed bulk up instead of round.
Where's a good place to find Life Seeds/Sitrus berries in Super Mystery Dungeon?
>>24897636
Lizardbutt

Finally beating Dark Crater.
Also TIL that sleeping Pokémon may spawn on the stairs in Rescue Team.
>>24897816
>kekleon shop buys special band for 1500 Poke
what the fuck
>>24897870
HERE WE GO.
The game's starting to pull tricks on me.
Starting Sky. Can't decide on a partner. What complements Piplup?
>>24897971
whoever you want, Anon.
>>24897803
Oh man there's a few. Getting Porygon2 in Sky because that was the final pokemon i needed, beating Rayquaza in Red with my power on red and no charger on hand, and beating Purity Forest.
Ultimately though, the best moment has to be beating Destiny Tower. This was before I knew about Drifblim, and after several attempts, I finally did it. I still remember how I felt when I hit floor 96 and looked in my inventory to see 4 Pure Seeds.For bad moments there's the time a golem at the end of Buried Relic ate all my reviver seeds and killed me
>>24897971
How about Chikorita or Treecko?
>>24897563
Voyeurism
Snivy/Fennekin
Two thumbs over
>>24897909
Well, talk about luck.
Name may or may not be related.
I mean, how the hell can Bulbasaur infatuate Moltres?
>people still complaining about classic recruitment methods being gone
Anyone who misses the old system clearly hasn't had to deal with trying to get a Pokemon with a 10 spawn rate in a 40+ floor dugeon packing a recruit rate of 0.5.
Connection Orb was a blessing.
>>24898004
>Snivy/Fennekin
my nigga
>>24897563
Goobers
Tepig/Treecko
bretty gud
>>24898009
Again, it should be both in game at once, or old recruitment WITH A WAY TO GUARANTEE RECRUITMENT
The fact Chansey has a 16.9% recruit rate AT BEST (No fucking way are you going to be level 91) with a less than 1% recruit rate, on floor 50, that's horseshit right there.
>>24898032
1>16.9 in this mad, mad world.
>>24898056
shit, i meant less than 1% spawn rate
>>24897513
is that the wiiware one? Is it playable without jap knowledge?
How would you react if they started adding DLC special episodes and the first one was for backstory onSwirlix?
Do the difficulty stars relate to levels in any way? I keep wasting my level 50 super sayans on piss easy dungeons that had "Very Difficult" and "Hardest Dungeon of your Entire Life" labels.
>>24898199
>very difficult is easier than Super difficult
>sacred ruins is bullshit on a new level, but is "Very Difficult"
>>24898164
I'deatthat shit up.
>>24897513
I wanted to play the Wiiware version, but the never fucking released it outside of Nipland.
>>24898164
That'd be great. I can't stand that little faggot and severely need a reason to like him.
>>24897563
Rescuers
Riolu with Froakie partner
I'm glad with my choices.
>>24898220
Someone a few threads back mentioned some way to run it on Dolphin. Sadly from what I know there's no translation, but i think the game's not as story heavy as the others
>>24897563
farside
torchic/treecko
team's working all right, just exitedvoidlands, haven't really had much trouble, went to fire island unprepared and got wiped by the magmortar funhouse once
there was also the first showdown mountain run where i got an eq-spamming vibrava in the first room and resumed from save immediately
>>24898232
It's light on story, but there are some mechanics that show up in the AS games that aren't seen elsewhere (like being able to control your Pokemon as they piggyback on top of each other).
>>24897563
The DDogs
Totodile/Cyndaquil
Totodile was great, but those t-posed arms. Cyndaquil has been my bro in every game it's available.
>>24898004
Funny, I'm Fennekin/Snivy.
Need to pick a team name though, I've got absolutely no idea.
Who /never needed a rescue, lost a boss fight, or fled a story dungeon early/ here?
>>24897563
W.H.S (World Hero Society)
Snivy/Fenniken
The duo is cute but Snivy is ultimate hardmode since he has no coverage options.
>>24897563
No-Names (I can't think of names to save my life)
Torchic+Snivy
Torchic has some decent move coverage so Super Critical is hilarious. Snivy is cute.
>>24898451
It took me ten minutes of sitting at the name screen to come up with a still joking team name. I wanted to be Team Paheal but the format in this game was "The ___"
>>24898463
I must have gotten super lucky because even with Snivy the game wasn't all too challenging until the epilogue. By that point I had saved up so many wands I became a fucking Hogwarts snek.
>>24898223
>him
>>24898004
>>24898011
>>24898451
>>24898463
My bros. I wasn't expecting this combo to be this common here.
>>24898463
Yeah I kinda felt that way as well but Fennekin covered me a lot with his Psybeam. And I also would spam Growth every time I saw enemies from afar. But bosses were kinda annoying overall. Funnily enough the dungeon that gave me the most trouble wasthe one you go with Beeheyem despite it being mostly water types, fuck those Hydro Pump spammers.
>>24898527
Really? I actually found the epilogue to be quite easy, though occasionally gotsurrounded in tunnels.You probably got lucky as fuck at Yveltal as well because that fucker could OHKO'd my snek with his retarded Oblivion Wing
>>24898724
got a version of that pic without the scribble
>>24898763
Google would do but here you go.
>>24897563
The Megas
Torchic/Froakie
At first, I didn't want to be a Torchic, but after looking at its growth rate, I decided to be one. And male Froakie because I could name him Hanzo, and had I chosen him as a female, the name would be Asuka.
>>24898724
I think the main reason why I succeeded was because I never didn't have reviver seeds. Oblivion Wing doesn't matter for shit when I still have like 6 of the damn things. I spent a whole 3 gold bars near the end to make certain I never ran out in the final chapters.
All the Snivy Fennekin in the world was already posted so you can just have one of my extensive smugleaf folder.
>>24898809
>>24898814
Is Snivy/Fennekin a popular pairing? I chose it by chance after the quiz gave me Snivy, and I notice there's a ton of fanart of the pair.
>>24898857
And I thought everyone was supposed to be paired with Oshawott individually, but I guess my tastes are far too refined and definitely great for their time.
>>24898809
I still haven't spent a single gold bar. I think I have like 74 after just beating the epilogue. As for reviver seeds I think I have like 12 or less. I wasted a lot of them stupidly by doing expeditions above my level or simply doing stupid shit like using Muddy Water with two partners around. On and I would always revive faggots likeNuzleafbecause I thought that was necessary.
>>24898857
>a ton
Well at least on pixiv there isn't much, and only a few ones are actually good.
Fennekin is quite popular, but Snivy doesn't seem that much.
>>24898877
If I ever see Gates in the bargain bin and get it, I'd probably do Oshawott/Snivy, but I wanted a Gen 6 partner. I actually got recommended Froakie but thought Fennekin would fit the personality I've heard about (and it does, firefox is just too cute). If I replay the game and choose my partner independent of the quiz I'll probably do Froakie with a Chespin partner just because Chespin also seems perfect for the role.
My only complaint is Snivy is a bit bland in expressions. I keep thinking of that autism Snivy that got spammed on /vp/ for a while, he doesn't have a strong reaction to anything.
>unironically picking smugleaf or wotter
>>24898905
>>24898911
I personally like Snivy a lot.
Too bad its evolutions blow.
>>24898919
>disliking Serperior
End yourself.
Also I love the way Serperior moves in the game, literally snek.
>>24898934
Serperior's movement it just sex
>>24898934
Sorry anon. It's too elegant.
>>24898905
The entire point of my characters in most strategy games is that I customize them to look as uninterested as possible, so it works out nicely for me.
>>24898902
I had about 60 by the epilogue, got the water looplet first by accident and immediately realized what it meant to roid up. Suddenly the smile I was trying to protect had max sp. atk. and Heat Wave.
>>24898934
Personally I think the whole line are some of my favorites. It's animations are the reason why the Entei fight was so sick as shit.
Alright, so I'm basically in the post game of SMD, got past all that shit with mew, ect, when the fuck will I get to evolve?
whoever posted the link to winte's pixiv last thread, I hate you and my dick hurts
>>24898972
Go to Lapras, Distand something, Tree of Life.
You could evolve random mons right after the credits, just not your starter.
Where can I find the banana that makes your level increase by 5? How many times do I have to talk to the shopkeepers to connect with them?
>>24898974
It was me. I'm sorry.But not reallyGlad I'm not the only degenerate here.
>>24898987
Fossil Excavation (you need to connect with Yanmega to unlock it).
As for connecting with shopkeepers, that seems to be totally arbitrary. I was able to connect with Meowth after just talking to him once after the postgame, but Kecleon took me roughly 20 missions to connect.
Holy shit it just dawned on me that all the Ancient Treasures are named after the previous PMD games (except for Gates). Wildfire, Tempest and Radiance are supposed to be references to the Wiiware games!
I'm still butthurt they removed non-starterers like Shinx, Eevee Meowth, and Munchlax, but kept fucking Riolu.
I understand Pikachu, but fucking Riolu? They could have at least allowed Bunnelby.
>>24899064
where have you been for the past three generations? lucario is the secondary mascot behind pikachu
What is even the point of the Golden Seed when you get the Golden Banana, which does the same thing but better, earlier?
So I just became a full Expedition Society member and the Nexus got rebuilt, how long until I can visit all the old continents? Does Kecleon just randomly sell passports on certain days or do I need to wait for an event that lets me buy them as part of their own category in the shop?
>>24899064
Furries.
>>24899097
>implying furries wouldn't an Eevee and Shinx before Riolu
>>24899097
I think you have to wait for the story to take you to another continent first
>>24899104
I'd only a shinx if it were luxio desu
>>24899064
Riolu's basically become a second mascot
You're never going to get Eevee orFUCKING VULPIX
>>24899113
Eevee would be so nice now that you could get rid of fucking Run Away with either a Lucha Token or that one Looplet that supresses ability.
>>24899127
I wonder how evolutions would go. Not just with the Tree of Life with Xernas but with the scarves
Actually, now I see how Eevee wouldn't work in SMD
>>24899136
Oh right, I forgot about that.
>>24899146
Yeah, Eevee wouldn't work with SMD. Damn shame
Though, Vulpix
>tfw no Zorua MC
>>24899158
I thought I was one of the few that wanted it.
>no Zorua/Fennekin combo
>>24899136
Maybe they would just give it a random evolution, or get Sylveon, since the scarf evolution is temporary.
>>24899158
I just looked in Bulbapedo that Illusion in SMD does out of curiosity
>In Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon, partner Pokémon with this ability transform into Kecleon.
What the fuck. I wonder how they could give it to an starter in a way that made sense.
>>24899167
>Not Zorua/Riolu because you bet your ass that's what's going to happen
>>24899097
You'll get a story mission that takes you to one of the other continents; after beating it you can buy passage to all the others from any Kecleon.
>tfw running out of reviver seeds
best place to grind for them? regular or tiny

>>24899557
Pelipper Island.
If you want specific dungeons, I think the earlier dungeons have a good amount. Can't confirm, though, since I haven't really needed to grind for them yet.
Which town is best, and why is it Noe town?
>>24897513
Where's the best place to grind for levels in Pokemon sky?
>>24899597
Sky Peak's Secret Bazaars. Pricey, but if you do the "sell lost loot and steal it back in Star Cave trick" you'll have plenty of money.
Just note that you need Nature gifter for this. Outside Bazaars, take Golden Chamber missions, one will eventually have a golden seed. Eat this, but ONLY WITH NATURE GIFTER. If you're level grinding, you'll want this.
>>24899583
Noe > Sahra > Baram > Lively > Capim
in my humble onion
>>24899628
To unlock star cave, I just need to finish the bidoof mission, right?
The whole battle you are supposed to lose is bullshit.
>>24899677
Yeah.
Why Star Cave? Kecleon Shops are frequent in it. You can't recruit Kecleon there, though, so it's best for selling high value items and stealing them back, to sell them at another shop later on for even more money
>>24899696
Trawl orbs and pure seeds, right?
I haven't shoplifted much, but isn't that the best way to do it or is there another way to cheese it?
>>24899832
There's another way.Get SWOLE AS FUCK
Pure Seeds are the best way though, just make whatever allies are with you sit by the stairs.
>>24898009
oh, fuck you. That was half the fun of recruiting. The part where you actually had to work for it and it wasnt "a mon knows a mon knows a mon, here, have a Salamance"
>>24899878
ah yes, the fun of recruiting a pokemon that only appears on a single floor in the game with a sub 1% appearance rate
>>24899878
I for one didn't like either way of recruiting. There comes a point where "actually having to work for it" gets to be too much for no particularly good reason (case in point, bullshit like Chansey or anything else in the Joyous Tower)
Meanwhile, the Connection Orb cuts down the number of unique missions to something under 500, which for a game like this is inexcusable.
"Okay cool, I helped out this Whiscash- and i guess i get charizard and alakazam and tyranitar too sure okay"
I'd love to see PMD have something like Inazuma Eleven where the connection map thing is there for some people, but for the rest you gotta search for them yourself.
>>24899904
Sky was way better about it than RT was, because no mon was as bad as that. But, it was still bad for some pokemon, like Porygon.
Something like "recruit this by beating the mon and getting luck OR do a mission for said pokemon. To balance things out, maybe you have to complete the dungeon said mon is in first before you get a mission about it.
>>24899898
Sounds like a pussy that doesnt want to work for it.
>>24899919
>To balance things out, maybe you have to complete the dungeon said mon is in first before you get a mission about it.
That's another one of my gripes with SMD is that the locations of some of the Orb missions seemed totally arbitrary. Like they were in places that you'd normally never see that Pokemon (like Dragalge in Cape of Wonders).
>>24899921
not him, but a single pokemon on one floor of the game? With a .6% spawn rate? With a time limit on the floor?
There's a point where it passes over to bullshit. Made even worse by the fact Exeggcute is in the first dungeon, which you can't recruit from because ???
I guess having powerhouses like Sunkern and Wurmple on your team that early is just too much
Team ACT's run through Meowth in Black:
MBDPF
>>24899940
either way, who gives a fuck? unless you're obsessed with 100%ing the game theres no reason that you absolutley need that pokemon.

But then my partner will switch places with me and get gangbanged.
>>24900397
How? Your partner's behind you watching your back for the sods who left the room and started roaming the dungeon
You're a wall, Anon. A wall of death. If you have Distance Dodge they have to come to you. One by one they'll line up and you'll slaughter them
It's a great tactic. And if you have Reversal it's unstoppable since the more damage you take, the stronger you get to a point where you're just one-shotting everything
I'm gonna write a little guide on recruiting them all since I'm in the middle of it, and want to help out.
Is there anything I should be sure to put in? Wish Cave wishes and level 91+ with Friend Bows are obvious
>>24900413
I'm the blue circle, my partners are green and yellow. Enemies are red.
If I press up to leave the monster house, the teammate behind my will switch places with me and get killed repeatedly unless he has a room-clearing move capable of OHKOing everything.
>>24900445
that should be happening
>>24900458
FUCK, forgot to mention I'm talking about Sky, not Super. I can't push my partners back into the corridor.
who are your favorite psmd characters?
i didn't really feel much for the partner this time, as much as i wanted to... i ended up liking buizel and archen a lot. nuzleaf still has a place in my heart, too.
>>24900473
Archen is cool, he's like Chatot's non-faggot cousin.
>>24900468
Oh. I thought it was Super, because I was really confused as to what you were saying
Oh, well then. In that casehave fun
>>24900473
It helps it was my favorite for a long time before this
>>24900473
This partner was my favorite of all time, but I got room for Pops and Mawile. Dedenne was cool, too.
>>24900492
Easily fits as the partner. So expressive and adorable.
I really wish the story was longer so we'd get more chances to see emotions.

Writing this guide is taking longer than I thought, but I have to do it!
>>24900594
Why even make something if you're going to sell it in a couple places for one day?
>>24900644
Writing this fanfiction is taking exactly as long as I thought it would, but I'll do it anyway.
There's not many games I would be able to say I could make guides from.
>>24900666
Hey, anything that distracts from recruiting Exeggcute is nice
After working on this guide for over an hour, it's still not done.
Here's the work in progress, if anyone wants to take a peek. http://pastebin.com/kwhis38n
At about 500/720 mons right now. I feel like now that I have nearly fully roided out self and partner that the rest will be easy, especially once I get the looplet that makes hunger no longer an issue so I can cheese things with a ghost mon.
Good game. Very little replayability from what I can see after 720. The game would have been better if instead of just unlocking the dungeons with explorer rank for legendaries, you unlocked actual story missions, with the story leading up to Arceus instead of just the mons.
Still, apart from the length of the game, it's probably my favorite mystery dungeon game.
>Castform is considered a large Pokemon like Palkia or Dialga in Sky
Well shit.
>>24900731
How long has it taken?
>>24900811
I have about 57 hours on the game, but admittedly a lot is just idle, so I'd probably say around 40 hours so far.
>>24900806
it's the different forms, but it's dumb
>>24900814
Are you the guy who has been doing the rescues? Seems like a good way to add some longevity to the game.
Otherwise, are you satisfied with your purchase?
>>24900822
Not
>>24900816
but I'll probably get into rescues (despite not having finished the post-game yet) once I'm done with exams.
Okay, my guide on recruitment is finally done, after 2 hours of nonstop typing! Blue and Sky are covered, if I missed something, tell me.
http://pastebin.com/kwhis38n
>>24900822
No, haven't done any rescues, though I think I might start doing so soon, since it sounds like a good time killer.
Definitely satisfied with the purchase, though. It's not like it's incredibly short, just that it lacks the same kind of insane grind as the previous installments. I don't think that's a bad thing, just that a lot people enjoy that kind of challenge (hence the arguments over recruitment systems in-thread). The other complaint I'd have is just that the post-game story is nothing like the others, which I'd say is a negative. Still for $40 I've gotten a lot of enjoyment out of it, and after beating it I plan on regifting it for a birthday present in a few months so it can gain even more use.
>>24900534
>that wallet
Good taste anon. Do you get loads of people complimenting you or asking to buy yours too?
>>24900831
Looks very comprehensive, but maybe it should be mentioned where to get Escape Orbs if you run out? eg. Pitfall Valley and Grand Sea for Blue, Marowak Dojo for Sky.
>>24900919
Getting right on that, thanks.

what did getting theluminous watereven change?
Seemsdark matterwas having no trouble turning people to stone or fucking with the sun before hand.
>>24900990
I dunno, apparently it learned from it's mistake from before.Humie and the Mew probably blessed the water or some shit and started curing legendaries who just wanted to blow the fuck out of the anomaly or something. Later realizing that blowing the fuck out of Dark Matter just delayed the fact that they were all fucked, they probably set up some convoluted plan, did time bullshit and wiped their memories twice, and made certain they wouldn't be able to blow the fuck out the Dark Matter later on.
Or something I don't know
>>24901002
So what you're saying is thatthey planned to let Dark Matter take the water last time?
Just to make sure he can't be defeated with it like last time?
i don't think i've ever seen exeggcute on floor 14 of howling forest
Apparently 3 of the Looplets were named after WiiWare games. They're respectively Wildfire, Tempest and Radiance Looplets in English.
>>24901020From what it seemed like, they had some Batman level prep time to pull this shit off. When and where the reincarnations would manifest, the scarves being made so that two stupid kids didn't get curbstomped by Satan, and all the engraving and traditions set up so that nobody fucks with the water until they forced the heroes to be there. Nobody would be able to read the text but the Mew incarnation, and it probably wasn't just any human that could break the seal to the water. Fuck, the seal was probably set up by the human themselves in the first place. One of my favorite pastimes is taking vaguely written plotholes and filling them with my own bullshit.
>>24901034
So yeah, the heroes did extensively plan to fuck themselves over later.

You can improve accuracy up to just before the end of the accuracy bar I believe.

Then you'll be raped in the turn it takes for your partner to get away
I know this will never happen
But guys
imagine a Rescue Team remake
where you actually fight Team ACT instead of a silly cutscene thing.
and this plays.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOqlOslYlfcif i ever get the skills or opportunity, i'll remake rescue team.
>>24901047They really wanted to prevent themselves to do the same things they did last time
>>24901242
While that theme is sick and all and would match fairly well, I'd prefer something a little more dire and dramatic. Like you're fighting one of the most competent teams on the planet at the time after a drawn out and grueling man hunt where they finally catch up to you. Now you're fighting teeth and claw as a cornered animal on the hopeless brink of death with your best friend over a misunderstanding instigated by a truly malevolent person. I want to hear the fucking pianos playing for your imminent demise, yo.
I'm also an edgy cunt.
>>24901257
I tried limiting myself to PMD music only, but if you can something better, then feel free to post it.Also, I have found Prima's guide for Sky floating around the internet.
>>24901257
>you're fighting one of the most competent teams on the planet
They just pass out the Gold Rank to anybody. No clue how the fuck those other teams are still Normal and Bronze Rank
>>24901262
Something a little more akin to this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bx1LabXku1M
>>24901266
They're the same kind of people that end up needing rescue missions from Tiny Woods?
>>24901274
But they're rescue teams called in during the whole Groudon shit, and they're calling in pokemon that have had a rescue team for all of 20 minutes
>>24901274
WELL
>>24901282
Everyone one knows Ranks mean nothing.In Rescue Team, that is. They actually give things and unlock content you can't unlock otherwise in later games.
>>24901289
well max rank in Rt does technically do more than give you a statue. It allows you to wish for mons, and that's about it.
>>24901289
Well what?
I'm not saying Boss 2 Rock is wrong, it fits better with the whole revolving theme of believing in the heart of the cards. I'm just an edgelord and like the parts where things are terrible.
>>24900990I thought it merely just accelerated Dark Matter's plans. With the spring water, it would take 2 weeks as opposed to 2 months, pulling random times out of my ass
>>24901293
Oh right, that.
I've never used that, because I've never went for recruiting everyone.
>>24901304
I'm going to need to do it a lot, exeggcute simply doesn't spawn. I've done like 8 runs and seen not one in Howling Forest
>>24901298What if the only time Dark Matter could truly be defeated was when it was just about to succeed? Where most of it's energy is placed into picking up a giant tree and hurling it into the sun, that is when you must punch it with your face. It wouldn't matter then how fast or slow it could glass the rest of the planet.
So what's the general opinion on the story of Super? I thought it wasdisappointing
>>24901309
it felt pretty rushed
>>24901310
Main two gripes are the pacing and the use of characters. I can tolerate a slow start, but they make you spend so much time with the school kids and then effectively remove them from the story once you're 40% in and then ask you to get attached to a new bunch of characters right afterwards. At least the characters you spend time with in Gates during its slow start remain relevant throughout the entire story.
>>24901309
I dig the graffix
I dig my favorite partner of the games
I dig the affinity chart
I dig the society
It's been too long since I played the second games for me to give any better of an answer.
>>24901318
>Use of characters.
What was the point of the player character in this game? He said and did nothing and just got pulled around by the partner all game. Could have had the main character be Deerling or some other school kid and it'd be the exact same.
>>24901337
Sounds like every player character in PMD.
>>24901341
Gates and Super had a much better reason for having the PC be there. In Super, it was literally the partner's story. Really might as well have made the partner the playable one if it was going to double down so hard on him.
>>24901345
I think you meant Explorers.
>>24901306
Well, okay.
Anywho, I am finally done with being fugitive at Lv. 20. Learned Razor Leaf in mean time, which is far better than Vine Whip, and found Attract for Squirtle.
THE CHARMING DUO.
soon-to-be recruiting team.
>>24901349
Yeah I did. Damn brain fart.
Been a long time since I played Rescue Team, but isn't that where you fight Articuno? I remember powder snow one shotting all my characters.
>>24901362
I had problem with Articuno as Attract failed to connect.
This is where you fight ACT in cutscene and meet Ninetales.
You fight Articuno in Frosty Grotto, second half of previous dungeon.things to do in rescue remake:
more plot in postgame
fight with act
ACT isn't Worf'd by Groudon and actually helps you fight it... maybe throw a Primal Groudon at you or something.
other things
>>24901371
And on this day, Gengar gotyiffedgud.Playing this refreshes my memory about the storyline, as apparently as a smol kid, I glossed over certain elements.
>>24901377
Monkey gang down.
And I don't have to go back to Uproar Forest for another, cause Pickup got one and there was one lying on the ground.
...but I have to go there for a mission, as version-exclusive spawns there.did I just kill the bread?
Alright. Gen 1 sheet is finished. For tonight at least. I'm going to make a few edits to it tomorrow like moving the Mega to the bottom to remove most of the formatting gaps I made. Among other things.
>>24901562
Also, does the sheet look fine in landscape, or should I change it to portrait?
>>24901562
Love how happy Paras is the same as normal Paras.
Where are the two emotions for non-NPCs even used, anyway?Also, what about gender differences? Surely at least Gloom and Vileplume are visible enough and have separate portraits... right? They had these in Explorers, so it's nothing new.
>>24901568
>Where are the two emotions for non-NPCs even used, anyway?
In the connection orb. Secret base missions use the happy portrait, most others use the pained one.
>Also, what about gender differences?
They aren't in the game for whatever reason. Which is strange since there are different models for every gender difference, even the ones entirely impossible to ever see in-game.
>>24901562
what's up with the blank spaces?
>>24901574
>mfw happy Mewtwo
my fucking sides
>>24901577
I think he used it for formatting purposes.
>>24900563
Mine was like 55bux
>>24901577
I put them there so that the portraits line up better. I'm going to rearrange the sheet later to make things look a little nicer. I know it looks like shit right now.
Playing through Sky again really puts into perspective how much Super is lacking in it's characters
>>24901782
Apparently Gates had good characters (but story wasn't as good).
Where can I get the game for cheapest?
>>24901782
>Sky
>Good characters
I sincerely hope you're just referring to the Sky episodes.
>>24901814
That's the point
>>24901820
The Sky episodes were the only time PMD had a good plot and characters. Explorers main story only had a good plot, Gates only had good characters, Super and Rescue Team had neither.
>>24901556
Uproar Forest isn't too bad, you get a lot of gummis, and you want one Recruiter to be the best
>>24902004
I'll be doing the recruiting once I am done entirely with the story, though, so I have all dungeons.
>>24902009
Better to have one strong pokemon sooner than later

>Mfw somehow beat them first try, no Round shenanigans
Also, is the "lol can't evolve until you beat the game" still a stipulation or can you evolve much sooner?
>>24902173
Still a thing.if you want a game without that, go play Adventure Squad.
>>24902173
it's still postgame
>>24901562
can't handle the cuteness of slowpoke, slowbro and dewgong
>>24901562
I just hate how Mewtwo and Moltres happy expressions are just more or less the same as their normal expresion.
>>24902219
That also happens for Paras and few others.
Also TIL that if you rescue someone in Rescue Team, while the shops are still in the same place, it seems that the items are generated again.

I was around mid 50s when I was approaching Dark Crater, anonand hit mid 60s when I finally beat Darkrai, because fucking Cresselia kept dying.
>>24901873
super has some good characters and an okay plot
nothing future of darkness-tier yet, and there are some issues with the writing, certainly
i found the expedition society was more tight-knit than the guild, and felt more like a group of friendly coworkers than loose associates like the guild
they also don't have forty fucking vocal tics
grovyle/dusknoir dynamic tops them, thoughespurr a best
>>24902365
The guild was cool, but
>Spend a third of the game developing the school
>Only one of them ends up mattering
>>24902365
I like the characters in the Expedition Society but god damn they have 0 development whatsoever
>>24902372
This as well. The kids were good characters but they don't matter besides Espurr.Espurr a best
>>24902372
this is why we need to developed PMD fangames asap
>>24902382
or dlc special episodes.
I wonder how hackable SMD is.
>>24902385
I don't know? It's certainly different from previous games; besides Looplets replacing and the Connection Orb, some moves got changed (hyper beam didn't explode in previous games ;_;)
They did get Explorers hackable to a degree, though.Just look at this shit I did.
>>24899696
>find the rescue point
>scripted monster house
>2 Onix and nothing else
More like Monster Couple.
>>24902398
fuck, meant to reply to my other post which is >>24902353
Should I dump the story for the games since no one has played them at all?
>>24902398
shit theres a hack where you can have nontraditional starters?where
>>24902422
what do you mean? post a wikidump?
>>24900594
>1 left
>reduced to $70 from $100
>>24902429
I don't think there's a hack.
You can change your starters, you can even add portraits (although nobody made any for non-starters). I can't remember what the fuck I exactly did, but I think I found the shit on Project Pokémon forums.
I am not sure about anything else, though.
>>24902422
I'd rather get a translation of WiiWare games.
>>24902431
Pretty much
>>24902452
Are the Wiiwares playable without knowing japanese? Assuming move names are in kata then I might be able to make do.
>>24902467
I think they are? There's not much plot; although I am not sure how exactly some dungeons are unlocked. Some probably after you do enough missions, some maybe after reaching high enough rank, some are linked to previous dungeon. I have some plans on making a mini guide on this game; I have some information already.
The names are like in the normal versions; eg. すいとる is Absorb and ばくれつのタネ is Blast Seed.
>>24902477
Yeah, I think I'm fucked without at least a menu patch
Oh well
>>24902485
i am playing it without patch
if i can, so you.
>>24902422
Noooooooooooooooo!!! I'm planning getting Gates soon so I don't want spoilers.Although you might post it on Pastebin
>>24902452
It is called Sky Save Editor, which I can't use since is for fucking Windows Vista and up.
>>24902508
get an anon to do it for you
god fucking damnit I told myself I wouldn't cry at the end of the main story on this Sky run and I still am
>>24902525
Super Mystery Dungeon might actually be worse for all of its story problems.Especially if you played previous games
>>24902531
Sky > Super but it's pretty close
Both games have things that they do better
>>24902502
Was referring to Wiiware games. I actually really enjoyed Gates despite what the edgy contrarians on /vp/ might say.
>>24902550
You're right. Even with Super fresh in my mind, I think I prefer Sky.
