Things that grind your gears!

Yeah and it's frustrating if you get one of those in a trade given it may be hacked, and even if it isn't you can't use it outside of your game as it looks like you asked for a hacked one or are the hacker providing it.

Let me put it lightly.
I was never looking directly for the servers or webpages to look and did payed deals from the servers or asked for freebies.
I just uploaded just randoms from my boxes and waited fore a few hours or days...or wonder traded. I assumed players were helping, but it looks like the hackers were the majority swarming like drones active.
Occasionally i received japanese names i could not even translate since i would often breed to remove the japanese names.

Right now support lock because of limiting pokemons and legendaries in Gen 8 and Gen 9. Diancie in my HOME box is literally stuck and doesn't have any game to transfer into and can't be traded.

Oh yeah i'd have no interest as well. But the GTS get's you whatever someone trades you and sometimes all you can do is use it for an egg (if you can). Though I do like it when a traded Pokémon has the official name of its language like the German Buzzwole which I once got with the name "masskito" which I do prefer to its English name.

Just got through most of Pokemon X and last Lysandre is over. I didn't need to reset on his fights. But i'm glad that all those Flare Grunts with their f**** Crunch moves are gone. If you thought Gen 5 Watchog was bad with Hypnosis and Hyper Fang combos ?

It is used by so many trainers; It also hits stupidly hard against many types. It costs me ton of Hyper Potions or even Full Restores.

Palafin's evolution method. I don't mind it as an option but being tied to Union Circle which will likely at some point become impossible for future play makes it a lot less usable and considering you can't just be randomly assigned to a circle (like you can be assigned to play with random players) it makes it a lot less practical even now. I think it should have had an additional way of evolving similar to several Pokemon that have more than one method (even if that one requires more effort)

Yeah. It's the first evolution in the entire franchise to specifically require online play. In the future once the Switch's servers are shut down Palafin will be rendered almost completely unobtainable. You would have to get extremely lucky that it shows up in Tera Raids.

You can do local wireless Union Circles.

That is more tedious even with discord to talk together. I don't have it or a Finizen yet. Aside from fishing in pokemon home by uploading a exclusive and just let a pokemon sit for days. I'm on a subscription hiatus for many things (and i don't use discord myself because of potential trolling)

ps don't send me any private messages involving trades regarding my post in this thread.


I just want to add that the base form of Palafin is VERY VERY lazy. The body is exactly the same shade of blue except for the hero heart added.

After i finally found a Dusk Stone in Pokemon X i found out that Gen 6 Aegislash has a weak movepool before level 36. I don't use any defensive sets in story mode like Protect, Detect, Wide Guard Light Screen, Reflect, Spiky Shield or Kings Shield.

It has Swords Dance, Sacred Sword, Shadow Ball and Night Slash


Secondly trying to get elemental stones for things like eevee's and other stuff is abysmal because of my low skills with the advanced hyper trainings and my 3DS Stylus broke months ago. Why did Game Freak hate most of the elemental stones ?
Apparently Stone Emporium hates Thunder Stones and doesn't sell them like the other two.
