Pokemon USUM SPOILER Thread (Enter at your own risk!)

[Ultra Beast Lover]

No explicit reason is given, unlike Ghetsis' Poké Ball jamming cane. The option to use a ball is just blocked off entirely.

I guess it kinda makes sense I mean the PC would be worried about catching Nebby and it'd be hard to tell what would happen if you caught a fused pokemon but still.

 

[Auraninja]

Not sure if this was answered but, can you trade Pokemon from Sun/Moon? my real question is, is there a way to transfer all my collection of items, mega stones and Z crystals over to Ultra Sun? I know Pokebank can trade up items. Even if it's the old fashioned way of trading each Pokemon holding an item one by one?

Items can't be transferred in Pokebank. I don't think you can trade Z crystals, nor Mega Stones prior to obtaining the Mega Ring.

I wanted to point out that one of Archen's Pokedex entries questions its relationship to all modern bird Pokemon.

It's interesting because here is an excerpt I got from an article:

Paleontologists view Archaeopteryx as a transitional fossil between dinosaurs and modern birds. With its blend of avian and reptilian features, it was long viewed as the earliest known bird. Discovered in 1860 in Germany, it's sometimes referred to as Urvogel, the German word for "original bird" or "first bird." Recent discoveries, however, have displaced Archaeopteryx from its lofty title.

You can trade Pokemon from SM to USUM.

As Auraninja said, Pokebank doesn't allow the transfer of items. You can get around this by sending items attached to Pokemon one by one the old-fashioned way via trading or risk it over GTS. You cannot trade Z-Crystals because they are not run-of-the-mill items.

you can pick whether you want to use gyro or the circle pad the first time you do it

(protip: pick circle pad)

Yes! I'm glad that we don't have to use motion controls during this sequence.

Wow, the line does not get that good of stuff. It's either stuff it does need, stuff it already has, or stuff that's not as good as ones it already knows. I guess Primarina is already set.

I love Colress' role in the RR plot, I hope to see him again someday

It's interesting because here is an excerpt I got from an article:

Off topic, but the current holder of earliest bird title is Anchiornis group, specifically Aurornis. Archeops is about 10 million years later.

It's interesting because here is an excerpt I got from an article:

One of the pokedex entries for Tyrantrum also addresses recent events/research, namely the indications that Tyrannosaurus may have been partially or completely covered in feathers (various Tyrannosaur fossils have been found with scales preserved on parts of their bodies, while others have been found to have had a lot of feathery covering).

Tyrantrum: Complete restoration is impossible, allowing room for theories that its entire body was once covered in a feather-like coat.

Trade to SM --> Teach Scald via TM there --> Trade back --> Profit?

 

[Bus]

Any more details on shiny Pokemon being found in ultra wormholes?

Someone here had mentioned a few pages back a video mentioning a link between them and Shinies. The longer you go in that Ultra Wormhole mini game thing, the more likely a chance a wormhole containing a shiny pokemon will appear. The Wormhole itself glows unlike the others you pass/come across, so it becomes a matter of steering yourself into it when it appears before you pass it by.

I'm sure this has been answered somewhere in here (so apologies) but can anyone confirm the location of the move tutor in US/UM?

That's good, I was worried they would be reserved for late in the game. Thanks!

That's what I figured, but damn. I have to wait for another event for my Marshadow Crystal? My Mew and Pikachu one? Lame.

Are all tutor desks at every beaches or do each beach have an exclusive tutor desk, with Poni's coast probably having the most interesting moves for tutoring ?

 

[King Shuckle]

Can anyone confirm how much the Apricorn Balls cost?
