No, I just wanted the shiny charm, is actually a little disappointing since I finished the dex in the last few games and this was just way too easy compared (even SuMo was a lot easier then XY)

Grants anyways

Still ofc it's gonna be easier lol, as well as there being a lot less pokes, you can actually see the pokemon before you battle and can also catch evolved forms of lots that in other games you'd have to level up

Grats**

I just can't wait till I get my team together for online battles

Going to be an interesting meta, no abilities and no held items xD

It'll be all moves, type matchups and natures

IVs matter too but not as much since every stat can now be boosted by 200

I just got a shiny Pidgeot and I find out that it is trash 😄 don’t even have access to Brave bird or hurricane or even return! (It’s also a Jolly nature so mega evolving it over something else would be a waste)

Still, shiny is certainly something

And yea it sucks that air slash is like the best special move you can get on flyers

I'm going butterfree with air slash, quiver dance and bug buzz though

There is no Physical one either, best one is sky attack and that is so easily countered

Jolly nature reduces special attack

And raises speed, yea I know

Idk, I could do a dumb troll set... like toxic, protect and u-turn, lol

He is only there to look pretty anyway xD

Lol if you're gonna do that you want shoelaces, but better

Only mine is body slam, sub, rest, and toxic

I think toxic anyway. It has yawn rn

Haha, love it xD

Errr shoelaces

Snorlax*

Silly autocorrect

I have Venusaur with Toxic, leech seed and mega drain, I enjoy that set a little too much, especially with the mega that makes it even bulkier

I haven't chosen a mega yet.. I was thinking charizard x or y (the special one I get them confused) or maybe even Beedrill..

If you go charizad I would go X, the dragon stab and boost in physical is really good, it was only outclassed by Y because of Sunny day... and well... I miss abilities

Stab outrage is beast

Was it? I haven't really played proper competetive since b/w

And then we went off smogon tiers for PO matches

I stopped comp in SuMo, not that I was great at it xD

It really depended, Y was so good but if you weren’t running a sunny day team you where better off with X

Y was really strong because stab heatwave in strong sunlight was just disgusting, then you would follow him up with Chlorophyll Grass types with instant solarbeams

Weather teams have always been good meta

I remember though when I played not many people used Sun teams, could beat them ok. Rain teams were harder even though swift swim was uber and not allowed

Well before Charizard Y, you only access to drought was Hidden ability Ninetails (which isn’t even that great) or groudon which would have pushed you up into Ubers

Ninetales is alright if you use it as a wall instead of trying to destroy anything with it

Or it was anyway

You mean curse ninetails?

The sun would cut its weakness by half when it comes out too

Well water but is still bad against ground, and earthquake is one of the most common attacks in meta
