I'm being so picky but it's annoying me that there's fossil Pokemon just randomly walking around the Crown Tundra like they're not extinct and then everyone is like "oh nobody has any reason to visit our little old corner of the world xx" like there isn't dinosaurs walking round lmao, it kind of f***s with the lore of them being extinct fossils when they're roaming around this region.

I think the story is more fun than Isle Of Armor but I hope the meta isn't flooded with legendaries because of the Dynamax Adventure thing. I'm excited to use the gen 3 starters competitively *.*


100% agree, there should totally not be such an abundance of Tyrunt or Aerodactyl etc. Idk why they couldn’t have just added the fossils themselves and let us revive them... or at least give a reason as to why there’s extinct Pokémon about. I know it’s a remote place but that doesn’t explain it laugh.gif It is entirely more fun than IoA which I got bored of very quickly as there isn’t really a whole lot to do. The story in CT is just much more interesting too, I love the idea of doing quests like this in a Pokémon game

The Dynamax Adventures are actually super fun too, I've never been that big on legendaries and catching them is boring but the catch rate is 100% once you defeat them, the way you have to go through the dynamax battles with random rented Pokemon and then defeat the legendary to get it is really fun!

I got a first encounter shiny Registeel during the Crown Tundra story too! ohmy.gif

Wow *.* I’ve got all the clues for Regirock but haven’t been able to catch it yet it always ends up wiping me out before any dusk/ultra balls manage to get it

I’ve also flopped at the dynamic adventures too and can never defeat the final legendary in 10 turns... so far no shinies so it’s not the end of the world but still annoying! I caught Suicune on my first adventure then literally failed every attempt since.

I already transferred Regice and Regirock so Repeat Balls worked well, otherwise I just kept healing and using Timer Balls but it is a pain catching legendaries with such a low catch rate. Same with Beldum but then I just got one off GTS instead laugh.gif

I really am fed up of bloody Max Airstream laugh.gif It's so broken on Pokemon like the legendary birds, Lati twins and Forces Of Nature, not to mention Cinderace still, it you can get one off. I'm seeing a lot of people trying to set up and sweep with them but if you thwart them, they'll disconnect drama.gif I don't mind set-up, but if you're gonna disconnect and throw your toys out of the pram over not being able to get an easy sweep, don't bother.

I'm having fun using the Ultra Beasts online tbh, ofc Pheromosa in particular is broken but I like that it's kinda high risk, high reward using them, like Pheromosa is super broken but also it will die to one hit (even though I use Focus Sash, it only takes one priority move or sandstorm/hail to finish that) if a move misses. Triple Axel is a great answer to dragon types, especially when Dragonite is everywhere, but that 90 accuracy ALWAYS lets you down when it matters laugh.gif Sheer Force Nidoking holding a Life Orb is also a godsend, I ALWAYS thwrat Landorus-T with Ice Beam *.* Atm on Ranked, I tend to go with Focus Sash Pheromosa, Choice Scarf Nihilego and Life Orb Nidoking.

I got COVID this weekend, so decided to pick this game back up.
I finished the mainline game, but never spent more than 5 minutes in either of the DLC Expansions.

Meh.
I still haven’t finished, this game just feels so… just… meh to me.
Horrible storyline, I never payed attention, just felt like I was mashing the keys. Way too linear gameplay outside of the Open World areas which felt too vast and takes up way too much time.

I hate to say it but this is my least favourite generation all around.
Gameplay.
Pokémon Variety.
Storyline.
Cut scenes, battle scenes.

Everything was just a complete fail for me.
