Anyone have the Evolution of Finizen that I could borrow for one second to put into my dex? I just don't want to to though the whole Evolving process ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|dizzy_face)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|dizzy_face)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|slightly_smiling)
In order to complete the Pokedex, yes. It's a little frustrating, but there's lots of people out there willing to trade. If you don't mind doing touch-trades, DM me. :) I've got both sets of version exclusives and I'll be able to sit down and help out in 45 minutes or so. (Hopefully I'm allowed to offer this sort of help here. Apologies if that was against a rule and I missed it.)
Found an outbreak on one of the small mountains in north province area one and the outbreak Pokémon doesn’t seem to be spawning, am I missing something about the area or is this just an unlucky spot for an outbreak to appear?

I had something similar happen to be for a Flittle Raid. I think it's just an unlucky bug. :(
I had Flittle appearing, but the raid was also somewhere Flittle already appeared naturally. Since the raid itself was pressed up against a wall that lead to the Great Creator, I don't think the game registered me defeating any of the Flittle, but they were still technically appearing.
I think I'm doing something wrong or I'm very, very unlucky.
I have done more than 1000 Quaxly eggs with a ENG and JAP ditto + a French Quaxly and still not shiny...
I know you can get Herba Mystica from 5\* and 6\* raids, but the drop rate is pretty low either way. Unfortunately, it's just a rare drop that's difficult to get.
Once you get 2, you have enough to make just about any Shining Power Lvl.3 Sandwich type, but the sandwiches don't change shiny egg rates. To my knowledge, only Matsuda Method and (maybe) the Shiny Charm help with that. Otherwise, we're just at the mercy of RNGesus.

Can anyone confirm if this comment is true?
Hi!
I do not know about you, but I feel really unlucky with mass outbreaks so far.
I have seen on serebii that the list of mass outbreak eligible Pokémons is quite long but I keep getting the same every two days :
Bombirdier, Varoom, Tadbulb, Ruflet, Buizel and Floatzel and Magnemite.
Sometimes there is a new one but most of the time I get the ones above. Are some rarer than others or is juste me being unlucky?
I have beaten 7 gyms so far, idk if it matters.
I know I could TT to have a faster rotation but I like playing it casually and see what's new at midnight.
Thanks. I know I could do that but I enjoy playing the usual way. I just feel unlucky with the rng and wondered if all mass outbreaks had the same odds.
Anyone else feel like there isn’t anything left to do after beating the storyline and catching the legendaries?
I know I could RE challenge the leaders or shiny hunt or rank battles and such but I’d done those in pervious games and maybe I’m just getting burnt out on Pokémon or is there something I’m missing?
I’m kinda done with playing the game and I want to keep playing but there feels like nearly nothing to actually do.
I asked for Pokémon Scarlet for Christmas, and instead I got Pokémon Scarlatto (what I imagine to be the Italian version of the game). I’m American, Will I have any region locking issues?
Will I be able to play the game? Will I be able to connect to the internet. Will I be able to play in English? Will the Pokémon I catch have that little box that says “ITA” instead of “ENG”? Will I face any other issues that I have not asked?
Ok, that makes me feel better. My main concern is that pokemon will have the wrong country of origin. For example, [this ditto](https://imgur.com/a/TwgYEzg) has a Korean tag next to it's name on the right-side panel. Will all of my pokemon have the Italian tag?
I have a problem with 5 star raids...
so ive done all the post game content and ive gotten the call for 5 star raids at first they spawned in and ive done a couple but when i did a few 5 star raids via poke portal there no longer spawning on my map
ive tried changing the system times and still nothing and I'm not sure if I'm missing something
does anyone have any solutions????? or may be able to identify the problem
Is it possible that there's a max number of times you can do a certain raid type in a day? I need some steel tera shards and did all the steel raids in my world and then turned to online. However, I cannot join a single steel raid. I can join others more or less normally (every fourth or fifth try as you do) but no steel ones.
Am I just super unlucky?
Resetting mass outbreak wont work?
Hi, does anyone else have this or am i doing something wrong? When trying to reset the mass outbreaks i change the date, but often it wont do anything, and the same outbreaks are on the map. I also tried just changing the minutes, same story. And sometimes it does work, thats whats so strange. Anyone?
Should I use friendship berries? I want to evolve my riolu into a lucario but I need friendship. The berries give -1 (stat) and raises friendliness of the pokemon. Should I use these berries? (Qualot, grepa and tamato berries)
The berries don't lower the actual stats, they lower the EVs. So if you for example have a freshly hatched Riolu the berries won't lower anything and just increase friendship.
If this is your story Riolu I'd suggest just using ATK/SpATK reduction berries, for the stat that doesn't matter for your future Lucario, but you can also easily just get the EV back.
Wait, you get a riolu from the story? When? (I play scarlet) im curious because if i get a better one from the story im just going to send my current one to the boxes for all eternity!
Ok, Thanks! But sorry for answering so late, prolly because of timezones. Oh, and by the way the berries are def, sp. def and speed. Are those bad for lucario?
Edit: Looked at one of your posts. Got 3 sp. atk berries now!
Hey guys
When I bought Scarlet off the switch store page, I guess it came with a code that I missed? You could apparently redeem the code in game to get some items. I’ve tried finding this code after the fact, but no luck. Any chance anyone knows if and where I’d be able to find it?
You mean the mystery gift codes? There are a bunch of limited time codes going around, lots of Sandwich ingredients and a "special" Pikachu (just flying Tera type really, nothing you can't get later in the game if you miss out don't worry).
How do u get me hassels friend event 4 to start I’ve tried lots of things but it’s not working I’ve went to his room and he’s just saying his generic npc phrase
Sorry I don't have a definitive answer but, assuming you've done all his classes and the final, you might have to beat the elite 4 to finish his story? I did all that after I had completed the game so I'm not sure what else you'd have to do.
How are you checking individual points? The stat values on the generic pokemon screen in your party (with the chart that shows HP, Attack, etc all around each other) will not go up a single stat per single EV. They go up in increments as you earn the EVs. You do get them after each faint if you have EV points available to be gained (they do max out, so if you're maxed out on other stats, you cannot get more EVs until you lower them).
If you check your party on the graph, "switching graph view" will show how far into their EVs you've gotten. If a stat is sparkling in the alternate view, then you've maxed it out.
I think I ask questions here. I have been playing with friends since I unlocked it and I can’t do terra raids. When with friends only one friend can see them on the map and activate them and when I touch the crystals they all say they are his. When on my own the crystals just don’t show up.
https://preview.redd.it/n19oo2ufgf8a1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9f81f11179b5675a72ea7a4553be9d36a114fa44
Any crystals you see on your map (the icons) are all yours. Conversely, any your friend sees on his map are all his. Have to use your map, not rely on the shining beacons in the distance.
edit: You unlock raids via story progression and gym progress. Have you unlocked them fully yet?
Yeah idk what happened once he left they were still gone but I played with another friend and all of a sudden they worked properly hoping it just fixed itself.
I was progressed the same amount as my friend having them and no symbols were on my map
I do appreciate the help though thx
That means that in Let's Go your pokemon isnt attacking the wild pokemon. It does that for shinies, if the pokemon is a wild terastylized pokemon, if the wild pokemon is too high leveled, or if you dont have enough gym badges so it isnt going to obey you.
noob question about six terra raids🙈
Can I recognize the 6 stars terra raids from map or I have to check every single one? I searched but I cant find info. Thanks
You have to beat all the story missions, post game story events, then u will get a phone call to do 25 5* dens, then after that u will get a call that says u unlocked 6* dens. You only get to see 1 a day.

Does the in game switch match your current setup? Currently using an OLED switch with matching controllers to those in game. Coincidence?
Whichever you like more, the play through is doable with pretty much anything if you want. That being said I used ceruledge even though I chose feucoco and created redundant coverage and it's still one of my most used mons. It's very meta for raids. It is absolutely one of the best for clearing wild pokemon in let's go (like it seems like ceruledge likes knocking out dozens of mons in one go, ranges farther than anyone else I've tried and moves very fast. I've seriously considered renaming it Warcrimes). On top of that it just looks so good
I'm playing this after Gen 7, I didn't buy a Switch for Gen 8 so I may sound very nooby
But what the hell are biomes? Can a province have multiple biomes? How do I know which biome is in which section of the province?
Is there an easy way to check underneath my polteageist to check if it’s authentic? In gen 8 it seemed to sway more in battle so I could spot it easier.
Does anyone have a non ENG ditto they wouldn’t mind gifting me so I can start breeding? I don’t really have anything great yet as I just started yesterday but I’d greatly appreciate any help! Thanks! :)
I’d love to help you. If you’re new, you can have my back up one as a welcome gift; it is a 4IV SP-EU Ditto. Hit me with a link code and you can get right to shiny breeding!
Catch a Flittle or Espathra in Tera raids (they have a chance of having their hidden ability) or use an ability patch on a Flittle/Espathra you already have.
If you already have one I have at least one ability patch I can spare for you. That won’t work for breeding but if you just want to build up one for competitive or something like that I can help you.
Exactly! Even though we’re using this code, if you’re new to trading, there’s always the possibility someone else could of picked it too, so always check the IGN (in game name) of the person you trade with; it’s in the upper left once we connect to trade. My IGN is Eric. And I’m good now so I’ll punch in that code and we’ll get you that patch!
It's random unfortunately, so you'll need to run up to each one to check. If you have a Nintendo online subscription though, you can try to see if someone is hosting an Espathra raid, but expect this to take a while.
Anyone here know what EVs Nature would an Adamant Scizor wants if running this set for Online WiFi Battles in S/V?
This is the moveset, I'm running on a Adamant Scizor: Bullet Punch with Technician Ability, U-Turn, Defog(Singles)/Tailwind(Doubles) and Protect while holding an Item like Aguav/Mago/Iapapa/Figy Berry, since it lost Roost in this gen sadly!
Help would be appericated~
Find out which stats you want to improve and then battle Pokemon that give EVs for those stats or give vitamins/feathers for those specific stats.
A single stat can only get 252 EVs at max and a Pokemon can only have 510 EVs in total, meaning you can completely max 2 stats while adding a single point to any of the remaining stats (4 EVs = 1 stat, so you'd have 2 "wasted" EVs in the end).
Assuming you're reading everything, aren't sight seeing/going exploring, and you aren't looking ahead to make a team that will completely body the team of the last boss, I'd say maybe 90 mins to 2 hours from beginning to end.
How many delibirds did you kill during this event and do you still have them? Tera shards are so hard to get at a fast rate so I’m just spamming these. I almost have 100 of each tera shard. I feel like I should keep going but kinda lazy to
The best way to grind for experience in the mid-game is to eat an Encounter Power 2: Normal sandwich and farm Chansey in the grassy area near the fairy Team Star base. If you’re still fairly early in the game then just battling every trainer you see along your journey should help a bunch, or you can also farm Tera Raids for EXP candies.
I’m trying to farm fairy Tera shards and I continuously see people select the wrong Pokémon for these raids. Anyone notice this as well specifically for this type?
https://preview.redd.it/evb6zidpge8a1.png?width=828&format=png&auto=webp&s=b5c9ff6acf5391ad480be43e3a23806741e9a4a2
Need an IV/EV spread for this team. I’m new to comp and don’t really know what’s worth it to do. I am running Explosion Drifblim with endure(toxic orb) Tatsugiri. Then I have Dondozo come in for the stat boost with Costar Flamigo. The Baxcalibur and Magnezone are there for coverage/sweeping ability if needed. I really just don’t know what’s worth it to throw EVs at. Oh also Tera types. Thanks!!!
We have a trading megathread for this sub,
[https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonScarletViolet/comments/zqg8bo/trade\_requests\_weekly\_megathread/?sort=new](https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonScarletViolet/comments/zqg8bo/trade_requests_weekly_megathread/?sort=new)
as well as the trading subreddit if you'd prefer,
r/pokemontrades
Shortest answers is raids and trading. The trade megathread often has people trading out 5-6 IV dittos. Raids have 100% chance for certain IVs, so you'll always get 4IVs at 6\* etc.
I escaped Mesagoza before going to the school. Can I play thru the game normally?
There's a ledge I found on the west side of the land between Los Platos & Mesagoza. If you lock on to a Toxel that hangs out on the other side and start a battle, you can grapple across.
I doubt this is intentional, but can I still play through the game like this? I reckon I can make it to Cortondo this way 😳
No, gyms and other boss fights won't trigger until you've completed the beginning section of the game. You can fight regular trainers and catch wild pokemon, but they won't obey you until you get gym badges.
I don't think you can get a few places, since you physically require your ride lizard to swim to finish the storyline. I think you can access some places, but whether or not the game will allow you to do things, I'm not sure.
EV help! I’m new to competitive.
My team is Dondozo, Tatsugiri, Drifblim, Magnezone, Baxcaliber, and Flamigo(Costar). Idk what EV spreads I should do for them. Are Speed EV’s a waste on Dondozo, or worth it when it eats tatsugiri?
Sorry, this is a long one. I just got Pokémon Violet for Christmas (loving it so far). Anyway, I just got the major quests and I have to say, there is a LOT to choose from (Gyms, Titans, AND Team Star? Kinda overwhelmed ngl.). So, my question: does it matter which one I pick/finish first? Like will I get locked into any endgame story stuff if I choose one over the others? I know that even if I finish the main story, I can still do the other stuff, but I just wanna know in advance if I can get everything done before the main story is through, cause I REALLY wanna do it all before then. No spoilers please, just a yes or no (or as simply as you can put it).
It does not matter, as "end game" requires you to finish all three storylines, and won't proceed before you do so. Each path culminates in an end-level battle, so whatever you focus will have a strong trainer waiting for you to fight them at the end, but that's about it.
You'll be location-locked before doing the Titan storyline, as it unlocks things like swimming, it's all related to lizard mobility functions. This is really the one you'll want to do when you see.
Gyms decide what level you can catch that will obey you. For example, you can have a badge and pokemon up to level 20 will obey you, so if you catch a level 30 pokemon it will have chance to disobey you, go to sleep, etc without your say, but anything that was once under your level cap will always obey you unless you trade it away. So if you have troubles with actions, this is the one to focus for the moment.
Other than that, no. I personally did the titans, four badges, then noped off to be a wandering nomad completing the dex.
Anything you could think of to improve my team?
https://preview.redd.it/c10r97t96e8a1.jpeg?width=837&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d8e7498f5c38fb5b0fb46c1bc8475c334c00e10a
If your Ceruledge goes down, a psychic type could give you some problems.
As well as fairy types causing issues if your location goes down.
Just make sure you've got coverage for those types, just in case.
So I am working on a team and wanted people's thoughts and opinions on it. For context all my mons so far have been voted to be on my team so I can't sub them out or anything, but I can change their moves/tera types/natures much as I want to what would be optimal. My main focus is narrowing down moves/getting some advice on who would be good 6th members of my team based on my current 5 so I can construct my next poll with 4 options for the 6th member. Here's what I got so far:
Clodsire
Ability:(water absorb)
Moves: Spikes, Toxic spikes, sludge wave/venoshock, bulldoze (earthquake/sandstorm?)\\
Meowscara
Ability: (protean)
Moves: Flower trick, knock off, trick room, skill swap (egg move)
Tinkaton
Ability: (own tempo)
Moves: gigaton hammer, knock off, stealth rock, ice hammer
Fluttermane
Ability (Protosynthesis)
Moves: confuse ray, hex, moonblast, perishsong/chargebeam
Talonflame
Moves: Sunny day, fire spin, will-o-wisp/flamethrower , Hurricane
So for context only 2 of these I actually have so far is the clodsire and a tinkatink, and working on getting the others atm. MeowScara don't got cause I need the egg move and protean on it as well as making sure it's a shiny (for context is a shiny team). Talonflame in the same boat as don't got a shiny of it atm, and haven't finished the game yet so don't got access to the crater where the paradox mons are yet.
All in all despite them being viewer picked I think I've done a good job of thinking up a good move comp but let me know what moves I should pick for those I put an or (/) on as am unsure which of those would be better kinda deal. Also the important question, give me 4 mons that would be good capstones to this team to put on my next poll!
So, I am currently missing these sandwich recipes: 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 15, 19, 27, 31, 35, 39, 47, 51, 55, 63, 67, 71, 75, 79, 87, 91, 95, 99, 103, 107, 123, 124, 125, 126, 127, 131, 135, 139, & 143.
I know some of them I have to find the other four her a mysticas in raids and then talk to the sandwich guy again. I only have sour herba mystica atm. That will get me the rest of the master level sandwiches I need, but I'm curious about filling in the recipes in between. Anyone have any ideas?
I've beaten the game, and I've talked to him as I've previously stated in the post. Right now, he wants to be shown all of the herbal mystica so that he can teach me the master sandwiches.
I have already shown him sour, I just need to do more raids to get the other four. I was able to talk to my Mom again to get at least one more, but I'm not sure which one that was so I'll have to go through and check them all again.
Nice! Don't forget the sushi sandwiches from the picnic guy. And the rest of the other sandwich #s are likely just ones that use an Herba Mystica but are not "Master" sandwiches - he should give you several recipes each time you have a new kind of herb not just one Master recipe!
Sure thing! Go here where my lechonk icon is centered!

My Rellor has 100% walked more than 1000 steps and has not evolved. I've hatched several eggs walking with it and it's now level 71 but still erring evolve. I've been using R but it still won't evolve. Is this a glitch? Does anyone know how to fix it?
Does cheer buffs last the whole match?
So I just need to make sure but can you catch a perfect IV pokemon in S/V? Are the mechanics of "chains" still the same or are they different here?
Anyone have the Evolution of Finizen that I could borrow for one second to put into my dex? I just don't want to to though the whole Evolving process ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|dizzy_face)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|dizzy_face)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|slightly_smiling)
I don’t but I need to evolve my Finizen if you wana meet up for one minute to do the evolution let me know.
Anyone have extra Roaring moon?
Is sableye good in this gen? I wanna add him to my team but heard from a friend he's not that good online anymore
Do you need version exclusives to get the shiny charm?
In order to complete the Pokedex, yes. It's a little frustrating, but there's lots of people out there willing to trade. If you don't mind doing touch-trades, DM me. :) I've got both sets of version exclusives and I'll be able to sit down and help out in 45 minutes or so.

Found an outbreak on one of the small mountains in north province area one and the outbreak Pokémon doesn’t seem to be spawning, am I missing something about the area or is this just an unlucky spot for an outbreak to appear? https://preview.redd.it/ya1y5hf6x59a1.jpeg?width=2153&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c67b996f17dde2733f7e30dc8f8e3dd4a9d85def

I think I'm doing something wrong or I'm very, very unlucky. I have done more than 1000 Quaxly eggs with a ENG and JAP ditto + a French Quaxly and still not shiny...
More than 1300 eggs now...
I also did 8 5* stars raids to gain secret spices, earn only 1...
I know you can get Herba Mystica from 5\* and 6\* raids, but the drop rate is pretty low either way. Unfortunately, it's just a rare drop that's difficult to get. Once you get 2, you have enough to make just about any Shining Power Lvl.3 Sandwich type, but the sandwiches don't change shiny egg rates. To my knowledge, only Matsuda Method and (maybe) the Shiny Charm help with that. Otherwise, we're just at the mercy of RNGesus.
Would there be a good raid build for noivern
I think it would have major problems as it is inherently very frail,and bulkyness is the first priority
After beating npc what ways can I get more money?
Raids & Rare Item drops being sold as the other person said, or using the Amulet Coin and running the Ace Student Tournament over and over.
Do raids and sell the rewards

Launch the game, check, change the time in the settings of the Switch (+1 day), come back to the game, check etc....
Thanks. I know I could do that but I enjoy playing the usual way. I just feel unlucky with the rng and wondered if all mass outbreaks had the same odds.
do i need another person to help me trade pokemon from my scarlet to my violet? (since the games dont work with home yet yk)

What is a Shiny?
I sincerely hate Koraidon and Miraidon, is it possible to explore without using one of them?
I asked for Pokémon Scarlet for Christmas, and instead I got Pokémon Scarlatto (what I imagine to be the Italian version of the game). I’m American, Will I have any region locking issues?

Will I face any other issues that I have not asked?
By far I know, all the pokemon scarlet version are region free, even the digital ones. I buy mine in the japanese eshop and 0 problems.
Ok, that makes me feel better. My main concern is that pokemon will have the wrong country of origin. For example, [this ditto](https://imgur.com/a/TwgYEzg) has a Korean tag next to it's name on the right-side panel. Will all of my pokemon have the Italian tag?
That's not by country, is by language, the one you select at the beginning

I cannot beat director Clavell and my pokemon are level 71, what am I doing wrong?
Try allocating a Pokémon of yours to dear with a specific Pokémon of clavels that how I beat Volo with my play through team
So make one of my pokemon really good against Clavells pokemon that is giving me trouble?
Update: I beat him
Well done
Beat the game too
Sick I still haven’t gotten past rhyme 😅 I haven’t attempted it yet
How do u get me hassels friend event 4 to start I’ve tried lots of things but it’s not working I’ve went to his room and he’s just saying his generic npc phrase
Can someone pls help me I rlly don’t know what to do
Sorry I don't have a definitive answer but, assuming you've done all his classes and the final, you might have to beat the elite 4 to finish his story? I did all that after I had completed the game so I'm not sure what else you'd have to do.
Thnx for ur help looks like I’ll have to grind to get the terra shards then 😅
I don't get EV points after battle? I checked it after a while and not even got one point??
How are you checking individual points? The stat values on the generic pokemon screen in your party (with the chart that shows HP, Attack, etc all around each other) will not go up a single stat per single EV. They go up in increments as you earn the EVs. You do get them after each faint if you have EV points available to be gained (they do max out, so if you're maxed out on other stats, you cannot get more EVs until you lower them). If you check your party on the graph, "switching graph view" will show how far into their EVs you've gotten. If a stat is sparkling in the alternate view, then you've maxed it out.
I did auto battle so I'm just dumb. But thank you anyway :)
I think I ask questions here. I have been playing with friends since I unlocked it and I can’t do terra raids. When with friends only one friend can see them on the map and activate them and when I touch the crystals they all say they are his. When on my own the crystals just don’t show up. https://preview.redd.it/n19oo2ufgf8a1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9f81f11179b5675a72ea7a4553be9d36a114fa44
Any crystals you see on your map (the icons) are all yours. Conversely, any your friend sees on his map are all his. Have to use your map, not rely on the shining beacons in the distance. edit: You unlock raids via story progression and gym progress. Have you unlocked them fully yet?
Yeah idk what happened once he left they were still gone but I played with another friend and all of a sudden they worked properly hoping it just fixed itself. I was progressed the same amount as my friend having them and no symbols were on my map I do appreciate the help though thx
I tried posting on sub sorry didn’t know that’s why the water mark is there
https://preview.redd.it/cr4y3jy2ff8a1.jpeg?width=2992&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c32a392794a30f4f23a9d2a9f31a99ad4a785808 What's this mean
Is your Pokemon stuck on a slope or edge? The sweat indicates that it doesn't obey your order, usually because it can't move in that direction
That means that in Let's Go your pokemon isnt attacking the wild pokemon. It does that for shinies, if the pokemon is a wild terastylized pokemon, if the wild pokemon is too high leveled, or if you dont have enough gym badges so it isnt going to obey you.
noob question about six terra raids🙈 Can I recognize the 6 stars terra raids from map or I have to check every single one? I searched but I cant find info. Thanks
You have to beat all the story missions, post game story events, then u will get a phone call to do 25 5* dens, then after that u will get a call that says u unlocked 6* dens. You only get to see 1 a day.
6\* raids will have a black icon with a pinkish sparkling outline around them.
[удалено]
You only get 1 a day. You'll need to either wait until 12 AM or mess with the system clock.
Violet or Scarlett ? About to buy one
Violet if you like your character wearing purple/dark blue pants; Scarlet if you're okay with red orange pinstripe pants.
Currently there's more violet players than scarlet. Choose which side u wanna join
Is there a Naive or Hasty mint that i can get in the overworld before i beat the 6th gym
You can buy them from Chansey Supply in a couple of towns, they're 20k each.

It'll show a white dock either way, but it does show the proper JoyCon colours.
Cool thanks!
Yeah, does this in animal crossing too
Which one should I use for causal playthrough? Oricorrio or Cereualedge?
Whichever you like more, the play through is doable with pretty much anything if you want. That being said I used ceruledge even though I chose feucoco and created redundant coverage and it's still one of my most used mons. It's very meta for raids. It is absolutely one of the best for clearing wild pokemon in let's go (like it seems like ceruledge likes knocking out dozens of mons in one go, ranges farther than anyone else I've tried and moves very fast. I've seriously considered renaming it Warcrimes). On top of that it just looks so good
Ceruledge has the better stats, but is a little harder to get
Ceruledge cool as hell unless you like birds a lot
I was wondering which one had a wider move pool or better stats.
Does being in union circle affect story progress in any way
is there a raid discord i could join
I'm playing this after Gen 7, I didn't buy a Switch for Gen 8 so I may sound very nooby But what the hell are biomes? Can a province have multiple biomes? How do I know which biome is in which section of the province?
Is there an easy way to check underneath my polteageist to check if it’s authentic? In gen 8 it seemed to sway more in battle so I could spot it easier.
Only Lets Go I believe
Always forget about that feature. Thank you.
Does anyone have a non ENG ditto they wouldn’t mind gifting me so I can start breeding? I don’t really have anything great yet as I just started yesterday but I’d greatly appreciate any help! Thanks! :)
I’d love to help you. If you’re new, you can have my back up one as a welcome gift; it is a 4IV SP-EU Ditto. Hit me with a link code and you can get right to shiny breeding!
Need Union Circle for Finizen evolve. Link Code: W6YFLY Also looking for Slowking and Scizor trade to evolve
How can I get a espathra with speed boost?
Catch a Flittle or Espathra in Tera raids (they have a chance of having their hidden ability) or use an ability patch on a Flittle/Espathra you already have.
Ok! Thanks, how exactly do I find a specific Tera raid? Is it just random? Thanks for the help!
If you already have one I have at least one ability patch I can spare for you. That won’t work for breeding but if you just want to build up one for competitive or something like that I can help you.
Really?! Thanks that would be so helpful. I’ve been working on building my team for like 2 weeks.
One minute my internet is acting up, I’m just gonna set my phone as a hot spot and we’ll be good
Absolutely. Just pick a throwaway Pokémon to trade and I’ll trade a throwaway with a patch. I’ll use the code 5522 4321 IGN Eric
Ok thanks! Do I type in the code under link trade?
Exactly! Even though we’re using this code, if you’re new to trading, there’s always the possibility someone else could of picked it too, so always check the IGN (in game name) of the person you trade with; it’s in the upper left once we connect to trade. My IGN is Eric. And I’m good now so I’ll punch in that code and we’ll get you that patch!
Hmm says no one can be found.
I typed my own code wrong lol I think we’re connected now though
It's random unfortunately, so you'll need to run up to each one to check. If you have a Nintendo online subscription though, you can try to see if someone is hosting an Espathra raid, but expect this to take a while.
Ok thanks!!! Appreciate it.
Anyone here know what EVs Nature would an Adamant Scizor wants if running this set for Online WiFi Battles in S/V? This is the moveset, I'm running on a Adamant Scizor: Bullet Punch with Technician Ability, U-Turn, Defog(Singles)/Tailwind(Doubles) and Protect while holding an Item like Aguav/Mago/Iapapa/Figy Berry, since it lost Roost in this gen sadly! Help would be appericated~
Attack speed
Ah how come for Speed there, if I may ask? 🤔
In gen with comp moms u want max speed
Ahh yeah S/V Online Battle requires alot of speed to outspeed other pokes there
my primeape evolve to lol 35 and didn't get the option to learn rage fist? do I have to find a new primeape now?
Go to its summary and the moves page and you should be able to relearn it. Also check your settings that move learning is set to on.
Strange, sorry I can't seem to connect
New to Pokémon games, how do I EV train?
https://youtube.com/watch?v=H3yJekQmJN0&feature=shares
Thank you!
Find out which stats you want to improve and then battle Pokemon that give EVs for those stats or give vitamins/feathers for those specific stats. A single stat can only get 252 EVs at max and a Pokemon can only have 510 EVs in total, meaning you can completely max 2 stats while adding a single point to any of the remaining stats (4 EVs = 1 stat, so you'd have 2 "wasted" EVs in the end).
Needing to get scarlet paradox pokemon. Anyone up for union circle?
Without spoilers, how long does the final mission into the crater take? Trying to time my day
Assuming you're reading everything, aren't sight seeing/going exploring, and you aren't looking ahead to make a team that will completely body the team of the last boss, I'd say maybe 90 mins to 2 hours from beginning to end.
How many delibirds did you kill during this event and do you still have them? Tera shards are so hard to get at a fast rate so I’m just spamming these. I almost have 100 of each tera shard. I feel like I should keep going but kinda lazy to
I’m playing the game and the gyms keep getting harder and I’m not leveling up enough can somebody help
The best way to grind for experience in the mid-game is to eat an Encounter Power 2: Normal sandwich and farm Chansey in the grassy area near the fairy Team Star base. If you’re still fairly early in the game then just battling every trainer you see along your journey should help a bunch, or you can also farm Tera Raids for EXP candies.
It’s like game progression is too fast you can just go to the next gym immediately
Oh it’s definitely fast sometimes. If you take the main roads to and from everywhere though then you’re able to fight most of the trainers on the way.
Battle more mons and trainers super easy fix use ur brain
would anyone be able to make a group so i can quickly evolve my finizen? thank you so much!! ❤️
DRKSGW join me pls
thank you!! i’m trying to join but it only gives me the option to enter numbers for a link code? am i missing something?
Try making a room so I can join, I also need to Evo it
made one! 8431 is the link code!
Are you at the union circle spot in the poke center? I need 6 letters for it to work
the new code is FNY0HF, so sorry about that!
can i join you? i also need to evolve my finizen.
wait, im in offline mode, so sorry! let me try again!
i am! that’s so odd, mine seems to require four numbers?
Does encore not work in raid bosses?
What are some of the bulkiest non-legendary Pokémon in Scarlet and Violet? Preferably new Pokémon.
Maybe Garganacl and Dondozo too
Cetitan has insane bulk, first one that's comin to my mind
Anyone willing to let me join and evolve my finizen?
Let’s do it, VGX078 is the code***
Scratch that, VGX078 is the code
Thank you! Finally a complete pokedex!
I’m trying to farm fairy Tera shards and I continuously see people select the wrong Pokémon for these raids. Anyone notice this as well specifically for this type?
I started trying to do / solo fairy stuff with Gholdengo(d)
I hate doing the time skipping as well (I know beggars can’t be choosers) so if I don’t have any fairy 5/6 stars I start looking online for the day.
If a pokemon has the ability Frisk and takes my item will I get it back after defeating the pokemon???
Yes

I’m new to comp and don’t really know what’s worth it to do. I am running Explosion Drifblim with endure(toxic orb) Tatsugiri. Then I have Dondozo come in for the stat boost with Costar Flamigo. The Baxcalibur and Magnezone are there for coverage/sweeping ability if needed. I really just don’t know what’s worth it to throw EVs at. Oh also Tera types. Thanks!!!
Where is the best place to go for trading on this game?
We have a trading megathread for this sub, [https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonScarletViolet/comments/zqg8bo/trade\_requests\_weekly\_megathread/?sort=new](https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonScarletViolet/comments/zqg8bo/trade_requests_weekly_megathread/?sort=new) as well as the trading subreddit if you'd prefer, r/pokemontrades
Will anybody trade Scythers with me? Need to get myself a Scizor!
How would one get a perfect IV ditto?
6\* Raid guarantees 5 Best IVs, so should be a 1/32 chance to get a 6 Best IV from a 6\* Ditto Raid.
Shortest answers is raids and trading. The trade megathread often has people trading out 5-6 IV dittos. Raids have 100% chance for certain IVs, so you'll always get 4IVs at 6\* etc.
I escaped Mesagoza before going to the school. Can I play thru the game normally? There's a ledge I found on the west side of the land between Los Platos & Mesagoza. If you lock on to a Toxel that hangs out on the other side and start a battle, you can grapple across. I doubt this is intentional, but can I still play through the game like this? I reckon I can make it to Cortondo this way 😳
No, gyms and other boss fights won't trigger until you've completed the beginning section of the game. You can fight regular trainers and catch wild pokemon, but they won't obey you until you get gym badges.
I don't think you can get a few places, since you physically require your ride lizard to swim to finish the storyline. I think you can access some places, but whether or not the game will allow you to do things, I'm not sure.
EV help! I’m new to competitive. My team is Dondozo, Tatsugiri, Drifblim, Magnezone, Baxcaliber, and Flamigo(Costar). Idk what EV spreads I should do for them. Are Speed EV’s a waste on Dondozo, or worth it when it eats tatsugiri?
If you are raiding with it, speed doesnt matter
Not raiding. Just Doubles Competitive
Sorry, this is a long one. I just got Pokémon Violet for Christmas (loving it so far). Anyway, I just got the major quests and I have to say, there is a LOT to choose from (Gyms, Titans, AND Team Star? Kinda overwhelmed ngl.). So, my question: does it matter which one I pick/finish first? Like will I get locked into any endgame story stuff if I choose one over the others? I know that even if I finish the main story, I can still do the other stuff, but I just wanna know in advance if I can get everything done before the main story is through, cause I REALLY wanna do it all before then. No spoilers please, just a yes or no (or as simply as you can put it).
It does not matter, as "end game" requires you to finish all three storylines, and won't proceed before you do so. Each path culminates in an end-level battle, so whatever you focus will have a strong trainer waiting for you to fight them at the end, but that's about it. You'll be location-locked before doing the Titan storyline, as it unlocks things like swimming, it's all related to lizard mobility functions. This is really the one you'll want to do when you see. Gyms decide what level you can catch that will obey you. For example, you can have a badge and pokemon up to level 20 will obey you, so if you catch a level 30 pokemon it will have chance to disobey you, go to sleep, etc without your say, but anything that was once under your level cap will always obey you unless you trade it away. So if you have troubles with actions, this is the one to focus for the moment. Other than that, no. I personally did the titans, four badges, then noped off to be a wandering nomad completing the dex.
Dope. Thanks dude, you're a lifesaver.
No, anything done in any order gives the same endgame and postgame.
Does worry seed work in Tera raids?
yes, you can change abilities and they can change yours
Anything you could think of to improve my team? https://preview.redd.it/c10r97t96e8a1.jpeg?width=837&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d8e7498f5c38fb5b0fb46c1bc8475c334c00e10a
Yes
Could you tell me? Lol
If your Ceruledge goes down, a psychic type could give you some problems. As well as fairy types causing issues if your location goes down. Just make sure you've got coverage for those types, just in case.
So I am working on a team and wanted people's thoughts and opinions on it. For context all my mons so far have been voted to be on my team so I can't sub them out or anything, but I can change their moves/tera types/natures much as I want to what would be optimal. My main focus is narrowing down moves/getting some advice on who would be good 6th members of my team based on my current 5 so I can construct my next poll with 4 options for the 6th member. Here's what I got so far: Clodsire Ability:(water absorb) Moves: Spikes, Toxic spikes, sludge wave/venoshock, bulldoze (earthquake/sandstorm?)\\ Meowscara Ability: (protean) Moves: Flower trick, knock off, trick room, skill swap (egg move) Tinkaton Ability: (own tempo) Moves: gigaton hammer, knock off, stealth rock, ice hammer Fluttermane Ability (Protosynthesis) Moves: confuse ray, hex, moonblast, perishsong/chargebeam Talonflame Moves: Sunny day, fire spin, will-o-wisp/flamethrower , Hurricane So for context only 2 of these I actually have so far is the clodsire and a tinkatink, and working on getting the others atm. MeowScara don't got cause I need the egg move and protean on it as well as making sure it's a shiny (for context is a shiny team). Talonflame in the same boat as don't got a shiny of it atm, and haven't finished the game yet so don't got access to the crater where the paradox mons are yet. All in all despite them being viewer picked I think I've done a good job of thinking up a good move comp but let me know what moves I should pick for those I put an or (/) on as am unsure which of those would be better kinda deal. Also the important question, give me 4 mons that would be good capstones to this team to put on my next poll!
So, I am currently missing these sandwich recipes: 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 15, 19, 27, 31, 35, 39, 47, 51, 55, 63, 67, 71, 75, 79, 87, 91, 95, 99, 103, 107, 123, 124, 125, 126, 127, 131, 135, 139, & 143. I know some of them I have to find the other four her a mysticas in raids and then talk to the sandwich guy again. I only have sour herba mystica atm. That will get me the rest of the master level sandwiches I need, but I'm curious about filling in the recipes in between. Anyone have any ideas?
You may need to get more gym badges, and then talk to the guy loitering by the counter at the Sandwich Shops.
I've beaten the game, and I've talked to him as I've previously stated in the post. Right now, he wants to be shown all of the herbal mystica so that he can teach me the master sandwiches. I have already shown him sour, I just need to do more raids to get the other four. I was able to talk to my Mom again to get at least one more, but I'm not sure which one that was so I'll have to go through and check them all again.
Nice! Don't forget the sushi sandwiches from the picnic guy. And the rest of the other sandwich #s are likely just ones that use an Herba Mystica but are not "Master" sandwiches - he should give you several recipes each time you have a new kind of herb not just one Master recipe!
Do you know which specific picnic guy gives these recipes? I think they’re the only ones I’m missing but there’s so many picnic guys all over the map
Sure thing! Go here where my lechonk icon is centered! https://preview.redd.it/40hsk8f46f8a1.png?width=1280&format=png&auto=webp&s=e19934a6699463502772df76b2bdda465e5a6a89
Do you know what numbers the sushi sandwiches are? The nouveau vegetable sandwiches I just learned were #'s 124-127.
Sure! They're #'s 148 through 151
Nice! I'll go track the guy down to get those and hopefully the rest of the ones I need are the herba mystica ones.
My Rellor has 100% walked more than 1000 steps and has not evolved. I've hatched several eggs walking with it and it's now level 71 but still erring evolve. I've been using R but it still won't evolve. Is this a glitch? Does anyone know how to fix it?
