The Isle of Armor & The Crown Tundra DLC - GENERAL DISCUSSION Thread

[Metafogos]

They’re both different. Natures are as well. The ball you catch Calyrex in ends up being what the Horse is in.

Thanks... my hunt will be hard on these...

 

[Pikasaur]

can you only go to the Tundra after the pokemon league?

Poke-earth only seems to list level 60-65 pokemon

New questions, about the Dynamax Adventure, because I still dont find this answers:

- Only one player can get the Legendary?
- If everyone gets one, the Pokemon is the same (IV, Nature, Shinness)?
- If i choose not get the legendary I can try again. But I dont understant then this start to cost stones... How is this mechanics?
- You can choose the retail pokemon in the end?

From what I can tell:
- Everyone can catch it
- Not sure but I’m guessing it’s different for everyone
- I believe it only starts to cost if you exit without finishing. I’ve done the same one about 6 times and never been charged anything
- You can’t choose the Pokémon you start with but you can take any of the ones you catch along the way

After asking around, found Regigigas. On another note, I normally ignore using legendary Pokemon but Zapdos, Moltres, Articuno along with the horse legendaries just stand out so much that I kind of want them on my team. Haven't felt like this since I was a child seeing Groudon for the first time.

I have viewed the legendary bird fight cutscene... they were totally throwing shade at the player for having their phone on, just look at the way they turn to look at us then leave.

The Calyrex stuff looks cool, wish we could have this kind of stuff in the main games. Just a condensed Pokemon movie. I haven't been able to see the whole event yet, why did Calyrex lose his power?

My big guess. Read carefully

Spoiler

The pokedex entries have shown rumors that Calyrex stopped a meteor from hitting the Galar region. Eternatus Eternamax was probably in that meteor and Zacian and Zamacenta fought alongside him as in Calyrex was the mysterious hero of legend. It must have been draining considering how small he is now.

 

[shoz999]

Out of the three birds, which is your favorite so far? Still experimenting here, but I love Super Mega Ultra Chicken's design. Also I'm not just calling it that because Zapdos looks like a Chicken, he runs away from you like one too lol. Ever tried catching a fleeing Chicken? Trying to catch Zapdos reminds me of that. It's not that easy.

I think my game might’ve glitched or something because I didn’t see any cutscene that had to do with the galarian birds. I literally just got close to the tree and the screen faded to black as if a cutscene was going to start and it just cut to getting a phone call letting me know that the birds are now roaming. I wonder if I accidentally skipped the cutscene? Im pretty bummed about it.

also I relate to the sentiment a user above shared, ever since gen 4, I felt like using legendaries on my team was a huge cop out but I really want to use some of the Regis and swords of justice on my team for this run.

Is Cosmog a gift pokemon after you beat the main CT story? (I've only kist started) I only ask as there is one chilling in one of the houses in Freezington, and the lady in there drops rather a nuclear hint by saying "it needs a good home...I wonder where I could find a dependable trainer". Also love that she calls it 'Fwoofy'which I take to be a nod to cosmog being nicknamed 'Nebby' by Lillie (IIRC) in Alola.

Yes i think after you complete the first 3 chapters then the lady will give it to you

Thank you, I hadn't seen this anywhere!

Oh yeah. I just waltz in there, exploring without noticing at first. When I finally go back to the grandma after looking through the dining area, I finally noticed Cosmog and was like... WTF... Nebby is that you? Wait.

Considering how Cosmog and Cosmoem only learn Teleport and Splash and level up slower than a snail until lvl 43, you may want to stock up on experience candies to speed up his progress and then just dump them on him. How the game determines if you get Solgaleo or Lunala we don't know.

yes we do, they’re version exclusive.
Solgaleo in sword, Lunala in shield.

Even better, thank you! GF feeling generous this generation!

Think you can visit anytime but the level curve caters the CT to be a post-game area.

You can go as soon as you reach the wild area, just like Isle of Armor. But unlike Isle, the game will not scale to accommodate new save files, so you have to fight Peony with his level 70 Pokemon. But you can lose and the story will go on.

You can also catch the dynamax legendary Pokemon even with no badges (may or may not be an oversight).

 

[BulleDeChagrin]

I wish there were trainers and more side

So Peony will have level 70 Pokemon, but will the wild Pokemon still be level 60 or do those scale?

Nothing scales. Crown Tundra is meant to be for post game, it just isn't gated off for whatever reason.
