Already transferred the dex in from home bar the last 5 as I'll be catching those in Violet as well. Wish there was a better way to make money in this though, the school tournament is slow but consistent, raids can be amazing for rare items or utterly woeful, hope the Indigo Disk will put something better in.

Also, random question re Koraidon and Miraidon, I guess you can transfer your ride version of them over to Home? Still need to EV and IV both of these to be honest, they must be good for a few raid options alongside Mewtwo.

Also random thought, I really hope the second DLC actually gives some decent clothing options, the school uniforms are so poor and the festival options aren't much better from the Teal Mask DLC. Not quite sure how this has taken a massive step back from he previous few games really, if they wanted to focus on the uniform at least make them all look good, as they are it'd be better if you only had to wear the uniform to attend classes.


You can't transfer your ride version of it because it's technically not a Pokemon and you can't box it. You can only transfer over the extra one you can catch.


Thanks, hope they’ll change it down the line and let you box it then, presumed the idea of being able to catch a second one was to trade it for the opposite version, not to be able to put your own in Home and then have a gap if you get lucky.

I think it's to stop people accidentally softlocking themselves by trading away their only version of the pokemon that can climb walls and glide and stuff.

In egg news I hatched 6 boxes of Eevee eggs and didn't get another shiny yet. Back to the super peanut butter egg power lvl2 sandwiches and afk while periodically pressing A!

Maybe could somehow add an option that your current ride legendary gets boxed into Home when starting a new game then? There has to be something they can do to allow players to keep it.

So uh, you can get a shiny munchlax from doing the Oni Ousting minigame and completing it on hard. You need 4 people pretty much to complete it, do we have 3 people here other than me that'd be interested in doing it together?

I wasn't much good at it when it forced it on you in the DLC, but I'd give it another go with some people from here, although I seem to recall shiny Muchlax/Snorlax isn't the best shiny!

2 Sandwiches and 2 resets down still no shiny, but there's a clefairy mass outbreak event happening in both Paldea and Kitakami (so you can even get one if you don't have the DLC) - if you like Clefairy now's a good time to get one!

what do you want for the snorunt?


Do you still need a snorunt? I can trade you a spare shiny one I got. If you've got any spare shinies that you don't mind trading let me know and we'll trade for one :D)

Realised I best try and get the 7 star raid done as it finishes later today, first try and its buggy as anything, again :fp: I really don't know why I bother with raids most of the time. Edit, these are performing awfully this morning, luckily not vital I beat the raid but it'd be nice I guess.

Edit, so many raid abandoned too :fp: Honestly if they can't get it working well enough by the next games, I really hope they ditch it, its a good idea but just woefully executed.

Edit 2, got it done on Scarlet using the Mew I used for support in the Mewtwo raid, will transfer that to Violet and hope it works as well on that.

Edit 3, first try on Violet didn’t go to plan, everyone brought ghost types so they got battered by shadow claw :fp:

I'm free any time between 2:30 and 6PM. I don't mind whichever game - I think all of those Pokemon are in Scarlet/Violet so maybe there? If not we can trade directly via Home if I can work out how that works. :slol:
