Pokemon BDSP - Recent Happenings Thread

Currently at the Pokémon Center just outside the entrance to Victory Road. I took out Cyrus relatively easy. I took out his Gyrados using my Houndoom’s Destiny Bond because Luxray was taken out by Poison damage caused by Crobat. One Waterfall later and Gyrados was out without me even dealing damage to it as Houndoom out sped it. Weavile was easily dispatched using one Power Up Punch from Infernape.

Got the game yesterday since it already was on a discount.

Started two hours ago and I am on the route to Oreburgh.
 

Mega Gobli

I got to the elite 4 and Cynthia the champ a few days ago but my team was too low leveled at 57ish. I lost to Cynthia by a move, her Garchomp beat my Staraptor.

Word of advice: have a few pp restoring berries, there’s no going out once you go into the E4.

I typically buy a few Ethers and Hyper Potions or Full Restores whenever I face any E4. With Galar, I really didn’t need to do that given we were able to switch Pokémon in between rounds.

Where can I buy Ether? I never saw a store with them available. I planted some berries to help me next time.

A happening from last night was that I have Pearl version and found a colored Mawile statue in the underground. Too bad I can’t capture that Pokémon in my version.

I meant Elixir. I always get those two mixed up.

i completely skipped over the amulet coin and more importantly :FLY. got the 2nd half done, now time for the amulet. walking and biking are annoying when i need to get places at times...

not a big fan of Naruto anymore as it got very boring with the filler eps but having Empoleon follow you reminds me ALOT of that series...

LUCIAN VERY NEARLY DEMOLISHED MY TEAM.

I am honored.

Now, on to Cynthia!

Edit: Forgot to save, now I have to fight Luci again. Oh, well.

Edit 2: I can totally see why people say Cynthia is attractive. Totally.

I have Empoleon, so that’s not an issue. It’s that most of my Pokémon are weak to Ground, and it’s the not Ground-types with Earthquake that are the worst.

Lucario also has Aura Sphere and Flash Cannon, which are also a hinderance to most of my team.

Team:

Empoleon
Manaphy
Luxray
Rampardos
Gligar
Houndoom

TLDR: Cynthia’s boss fight is insanely difficult and I hate it. This, my friends, is why I detest battling.

whose idea was it to lock the razor fang and claw to postgame? Gliscor could've been a great help

made an account just to let you know, odd keystone isn’t underground, there’s a man in the grass outside hearthome city who gives you it (i’m pretty sure anyway) he’s off the screen at the bottom

Odd Keystones can in fact be found underground, but I COMPLETELY forgot where that dude was located. I just found him on Route 208 earlier today!

It's true the new underground is HUGE. The Wild Area pales in comparison to BD/SP including the dlc areas because how much the Grand Underground offers.

Nearly lost to Volkner. I was hoping to level up my lvl 39 during the fight Gabite but his Luxray had Ice Fang straight and caught me completely off-guard. Same goes for his Raichu knows surf when Infernape was out on the field.

But i beat him. I need to grind so i'm not badly underleveled for the Elite 4.
