So here's where I'm at:
Second Island, before the big battle. Purposefully vague here in case some might consider it a spoiler. Pokémon are in mid to late twenties. Here's the thing though. I had bred Pokémon beforehand on Sun and Moon, so I had a small menagerie of choices to bring over and play. However I was informed Pokébank wouldn't be working the first few weeks so I went "never mind" and played without them. Now I'm told Pokébank works for USUM and I'm seriously debating restarting the game with some Pokémon brought over from Sun and Moon. I think I'm going to do it. I mean I'm not that far into the game anyway. Party currently in rotation: Rockruff, female, Lv.24 (Cherish Ball) Jolly Own Tempo -Rock Tomb -Bite -Thunder Fang -Happy Hour (yeah, gave up on this girl when I realised I had to get up at 4 AM to evolve it.) Brionne, male, Lv.27 Naive Torrent -Icy Wind -Bubble Beam -Aqua Jet -Disarming Voice (Chose this starter because it was the only one I hadn't tried yet.) Charjabug, male, Lv.27 Bold Battery -Acrobatics -Bug Bite -Spark -Crunch (Never used Vikavolt, heard it was amazing though (and easier to get now). Vullaby, female, Lv.26 Modest Big Pecks -Roost -Feint Attack -Hidden Power (Ice) -Pluck (Also never used Mandibuzz before even though they've sometimes given me some trouble.) Tauros, male, Lv.26 Docile Anger Point (a bit contrary to a Docile nature don't you think?) -Rest -Sleep Talk -Horn Attack -Payback (Never used one before. Honestly this one was more a placement filler until I got something else.) Mudbray, male, Lv.27 Lax Stamina -Rock Tomb -Stomp -High Horsepower -Double Kick (Because I didn't get to last time. And Musdale gave me some problems when facing it. Courtesy of Stamina, a mostly physical team and Full Restores.) Bewear, male, Lv.27 Lonely Fluffy -Rock Tomb -Brick Break -Brutal Swing -Flail (Didn't like it at first but after it gave me some trouble in combat I'm eager to try it and it's unique ability.) Steenee, female, Lv.25 Quirky Oblivious -Rapid Spin -Razor Leaf -Teeter Dance -Magical Leaf (Why not? A Grass type might have been handy I thought?) Remoraid, male, Lv.17 Careful Hustle -Water Gun -Lock-On -Psybeam -Aurora Beam (Only just got this guy because Octillery looks interesting but I've never used one before.)

OK, kept meaning to give a team update, but kept getting distracted with the game itself. Now that I've gotten Team Rainbow Rocket blasting off for good, I think it's high time I post the team;
Nihilego@Poisonium Z, genderless, lv. 76 (Beast Ball) Calm nature Beast Boost ~Sludge Wave ~Power Gem ~Psychic ~Thunder Wave Houndoom@Houndoominite, male, lv. 76 (Dusk Ball) Hardy nature Early Bird ~Flamethrower ~Dark Pulse ~Sludge Bomb ~Foul Play Noivern@Dragonium Z, female, lv. 77 (Great Ball) Careful nature Infiltrator ~Hurricane ~Dragon Pulse ~Shadow Ball ~Boomburst Leafeon@Grassium Z, male, lv. 78 (Poké Ball) Naughty nature Leaf Guard ~Leaf Blade ~X-Scissor ~Bite ~Swords Dance Crabominable@Amulet Coin, male, lv. 78 (Nest Ball) Rash nature Iron Fist ~Ice Punch ~Drain Punch ~Dizzy Punch ~Thunder Punch Primarina@Primarium Z, male, lv. 78 (Poké Ball) Bold nature Torrent ~Sparkling Aria ~Moonblast ~Shadow Ball ~Misty Terrain |

>Totem Togedemaru woes
Saturday Akala Island Scan gives Marshtomp. Level 36 Swampert with bulldoze absolutely trashes Totem Toge, like, got through the fight unscathed trashes it.

Is anyone else getting homestuck vibes from that or am I just crazy?
The synth tones, echoes, and especially the organ. Plus the simple but strong melody.

Sorry I put my post and slightly edited that name out of Jeri's post. I thought I'd be OK since a few people already mentioned totem bosses and that Pokemon was spoiled in a video before the game came out. Either way, sorry about that. D:

The drums remind me of Linkin Park during their 2010s phase.

So I restarted my game to do an Egglocke (keeping my popplio starter though cause I got a girl without even having to reset~). All I need now are volunteers to supply the Eggs. If you can just supply them yourself, great! If you want me to supply mons to breed from, I can do that too, as I have an assortment of 24 randomly selected Pokémon and 6 personal picks lined up for that. Ping me on the discord server if you want to volunteer.

I got this on release day, but baby squid game demanded me to not play. I'm in the first few bits of the game and (early game spoilers)
Spoiler: show Also MC's face is still horrifying. Imagine how scary it is for your starter to be picked up and stared at by that soulless husk of a person. |

It's somewhere between Emerald / Platinum and BW2 imo. It's more transformative than other "3rd version" games.

If you haven't gotten to Akala yet, just be patient. That's where the more noticeable changes start to happen.

So I’ve done exactly what I said I’d do last time. I reset the game (after transferring some of the older pogeys like special Rockruff to Pokébank of course). I couldn’t decide which ones to use form the old game I had, so I decided to go for a rotational team of sorts and just went with 18. These have all been bred and EV-trained, so you could consider it slightly cheating. Between Exp.Share and boosted Exp. From being transferred Pokémon, they were easily up to level throughout most of the game without having to grind even once. I upheld a promise to myself that I’d use the lowest-levelled Pokémon on my team each time I’d visit a new place/Pokécentre and before facing a Trial Challenge.
Anyway, I’m now: Spoiler: show Spoilers on everything up to then: Spoiler: show Team mates: Spoiler: show ----- Also: Quote:
[From Sun/Moon:] >Plumeria gives a speech on beating up her grunts Just keep smiling >Guzma tries to intimidate you by pummelling you Just keep smiling >Lillie was kidnapped! Just keep smiling >You’re about to enter Skull-infested Po Town with possibly no retreat Just keep smiling >Look at all the frozen Pokémon! Just keep smiling >Lusamine gives a big speech on her ideals, dreams, revenge, hatred, whatever Just keep smiling >Ultra beasts have invaded Alola! Just keep smiling

Do they have to do a silly dance every time a Z-Move is executed?

10.000.000 volt thunderbolt's dance is the best one and if you believe otherwise you are wrong, weak, and will not survive the winter
