That magikarp is a beast. Never seems to miss!


Goes down if a Pokémon farts near it though. It's great at hitting awful for getting hit and dying instantly.

Told myself to only shiny hunt mon I truly love but I legit think Falinks is so damn cool and it's shiny ain't bad either. I've only ever shiny farmed one mon and that was Honedge in XY which I was already planning to do again in SuMo too ">,> Time to add another one.

Galvantula?
Bug type means you add a counter to Fairy and Flying types that you're currently susceptible to.
Only weak to Fire and Rock which you currently only have 1x weakness to each on your team so it doesn't mean you have any specific types that your team is overwhelmingly imbalanced against.

fairy isnt weak to bug, in fact it resists bug, also they have a poison type which is a counter to fairy

Is anyone able to send me a Chipped Pot (not cracked)? I've been checking the antique market every day and it hasn't come up. Genuinely getting really frustrated :x :lol:

Oh, I see.

Last Pokemon game I played, Fairy wasn't a thing so I'm not very good at figuring out those type matchups!

I know Dark, Fighting and Dragon are weak to Fairy....
What moves are super effective against Fairy then? Poison?

Get a fairy type, I would. They're useful. I like my Galarian Weezing personally.

My poison type only has toxic though as it is tank/staller. It's only attacking move is water.

I decided to trial Solosis (or whatever the evolved version is called) as it can learn flash cannon and my team is lacking a steel move. Also has a pretty cool ability that means it gets to ignore traps etc.

I'm currently trying to be a massive tryhard in capturing any 'mon in a Moon Ball, so I can breed it to pass it down and have an entire team in Moon Balls. Don't even ask me why I'm trying it. I just am. To be weird.

EDIT: I just realised by looking it up that only the female can pass the ball across, so the only 'mon I can have in a Moon Ball is a Lotad. Well, crud.

Could you capture a ditto in a moon ball? Would that pass it down?

So it seems, but all is not lost! According to Bulbapedia, as of Gen 7, male or genderless Pokémon will pass down their ball when bred with a Ditto. :D
