  1. Yeah, there's six down there. I kinda sat there in shock for a minute when I was playing the beta just realizing how well thought out that moment was for Ame to make. Well done for sure.
  2. We still don't really know what Lin's deal is, though judging by the Laura Tanzan Depths path in one timeline/alternate universe/whatever we know that Lin is simply a horrible person, through and through. Whether that's Sigmund's fault or not, I guess we'll have to see still, but I don't really think given what we know/have seen that she can be redeemed. Sirius? Yeah fuck you Sirius. He seems to enjoy his contract -- he says Fiore Mansion would be the second house he's had to burn down like it was some kind of twisted joke. I don't see redemption for him either. Sigmund? Not exactly Meteor, but worth talking about. It seems like he says some twisted sense of righteousness coupled with the death of his... sister? that might almost make us think his heart is in the right place in spite of what he did so wrong to the orphans. IIRC he has ship points unlike the above two aswell so maybe things might be redeemable for Sigmund. Solaris? Sure. I think he's probably the most gray area of them all, being manipulated or worse by Lin, but it seems like he's really just doing what his family has had to for generations without really questioning it too much. I suspect there'll be some kind of Solaris-tries-to-stop-Lin-but-its-too-late-and-he-dies moment but who knows. Taka? I'm on the Zekrom path and heard about the other path, so I can't really comment on that one for apparent reasons. What I do think, and thought by choosing to battle him in WTC, is that he can operate as either the conscientious objector or the saboteur within Meteor, whichever doesn't get him nixed in this path. Obviously everything between the Titania-Taka-Us triangle already asked the question regarding him, but he's certainly redeemable nonetheless. ZEL? Well, it seems like Zero is a savage and agrees wholly with Meteor, so I guess we'll have to see with him. Lumi is calculating but probably in a similar boat to Flobot morality wise, and Eve is clearly supposed to be good. Are they even still alive? I know we saw Zero come out of "devon" but not those two. Elias? As you may or may not know, I kinda despise religious fanatics that would use that as their justification for their actions, especially those taking away civil rights, and it seems like Elias is just that at times. Yet, it seems like all he's PERSONALLY done is wanted his daughter back and tried to get his apprentice an elite four position (though likely unethically), so idk. He might have a perfectly sound redemption arc or be controlled by the powers he seeks to possess. Then again he tried to... sacrifice...? Luna, so maybe not. He seems like he is grateful to the lord for his sight and so perhaps obligation drives him, which I could see turning against him and making him see reason again. As for the grunts, again, I don't know. Some probably drank Solaris' Kool-Aid and some seek power Lin can bring to the table, others simply want a place in the new world. I don't think the grunts for the most part are evil on their own.
  3. Minor E17 spoiler:?

     

    Corsola's exact encounter slot in the Azurine Lake dive spots is replaced by Toxapex. How dark. 

    1. Wolfox

      Wolfox

      tsk tsk tsk... why would anyone replace the cute corsola for that hellspawn?

  4. My university is on the brink of getting finals cancelled due to the fire from the other side of the county. Fun. 

  5. Found a random encounter shiny Krokorok in Haina Desert. Krookodile is in my top 10 in part for its design / shiny design so I’ll take it!

  6. Just an update on this guide -- with a new generation (changing lots of things like Wingull and Torkoal aside from all 80 new Pokemon), there's a fairly large amount of work that I need to put into it, but just know I plan to over time. I'll probably need to restart a new save file for this purpose as well but with finals week @ uni coming up soon it'll be difficult for me to do that but stick with me over time. thx.
  7. Based purely on observations of playing through the E17 beta, I have compiled a list of new notable and useful items obtainable during the E17 content. Other than what is listed here, I have NOT gone back through most parts of the game to check for items, therefore, what is listed here is certainly not exhaustive. Please add anything you find, as there are likely more mega stones, Z-crystals, perhaps more TMs, and the rest of the Silvally Memories lying around. Thanks to: bepe, eagleby18, as well as everyone who's posted in this thread for their contributions!
  8. Based on the list created by Endstrom and others in the Reborn City subforum, I have compiled a list of all of the Pokemon available through new methods in E17. There might be a few instances where, if a Pokemon is wild, I missed one or more of its locations, but at least one is there for everything. If it’s bolded, I either have not found it yet or the aces are having difficulty figuring out where it is/how it works for events. As for italics, I’m slowly collecting information about axed Pokemon, either from changing events or wild locations changing. These are, at the moment, NOT exhaustive so if you start a new file and find out anything that’s different about availability, please point it out here and I’ll edit it in. Gen 1 Gen 2 Gen 3 Gen 4 Gen 5 Gen 6 Gen 7 Alola Forms - Note this is not exhaustive. I found just one location where I could find them and moved on, as encounters.txt doesn’t specify between Alolan/Kantonian forms. What’s to Come (major spoilers for future episode availability): Thanks to: Ice Cream Sand Witch, NickCrash, Bazaro, bepe, Gaunt for their additions during beta testing.
  9. dude you're not supposed to talk about the secrets of the beta yet
  10. Technically speaking Silvally is a legendary, so whether or not we can get it in E17 does not count towards the 6 lines remaining.
  11. Once upon a V-8 I had made this: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gPo5GVmR5ajSqGdGL2Wr-gp8I3mNawGS8PDzMVvdND4/edit?usp=sharing However, it's only partially updated to V-9 yet because the document I was using as reference didn't update to V-9 either. Perhaps when V-10 surfaces I'll update it.
  12. Will be out of town until this coming Monday, will not have any connection to internet :0

     

    Just putting this out there that I will participate in a certain β in case as soon as I return if it starts during my absence.

    1. BIGJRA

      BIGJRA

      Not related BUT, we currently have 24 non-legendary lines (12 from I-VI, 12 from VII) unattainable in the obtainable list, three of which are starters. To guess completely randomly out of the 21 remaining lines which six will not be put in, odds are 1/54264. Of course there's definitely logic at play since Minior is more likely than Tyranitar, but still interesting nonetheless.

      So are there dratini and axew events currently gated behind rock climb too? I knew about the larvitar and deino ones. out of interest where are those?

    3. BIGJRA

      BIGJRA

      I’m not 100% positive but Dratini is in Aventurine mountain on a floor lower than what we can access. Unless perhaps the secret is an alternate way in from Labradorra City or something like that, the only other tool to exploring that place we don’t have is Rock Climb. 

       

      There is (maybe was, dunno about E16) an egg in the Route 3 caves that looked awfully like an Axew egg. It seemed to be only accessible by rock climb, again unless there’s a convoluted way around through Labradorra City. 

    4. Dreamy

      Dreamy

      Interesting. It will be exciting when some of the currently unobtainable ones start changing.

  17. Here's a few. Skuntank - Probably D, maybe C---- +Obtainable very early; access to poison gas for early game +Evolves opportunely and gains flamethrower yet only weak to ground, perfect for Shelly. +Can hit moderately hard with Night Slash for a few fights early/middle game. +Can outspeed some NFE foes mid-game, coupled with stench, can lead to RNG luck +Aftermath can be useful in a pinch - Strictly outclassed by Drapion at later levels, as well as basically everything else past about level 50 - Sub 70's in bulk don't allow it much livability - Does not have moveset to complement 93 in attack - Subpar special of 71 counterbalances access to Flamethrower and Acid Spray (early game) Weezing - Probably also D, or C depending on how you count the niche usage +Available early, smokescreen can cheese Julia if necessary +Dependable to tank physical hits with a 65HP/120Def spread, useful for Kiki at least +It's only abilities-considered weakness, Psychic, is not super common early/mid-game +Learns Destiny Bond @ L.46, for the price of one common candy and staircase focus sash, can defeat Solaris' Garchomp!! Could further be used for Arceus. - Moveset is not particularly special for a Poison type - 90/85 offenses may be versatile, but it doesn't do anything particularly well - All the TM's that vary its movepool are available after it drops off in usefulness.

      At least route 2 has TONS of encounters already, maybe it's to make space for gen 7 mons?

      The sand castles make sense for a retcon add to Apophyll, sure. 

       

      I really have no idea why the entire Charizard line is now available in the wild, especially since it's non-choice event JUST occurred in E16. Guess we'll have to see :P

      See I thought so too, but it's not in encounters.txt and was one of two changes today.

      Scatterbug can be found in pre-E16 Jasper Ward. I don't remember if I saw Spewpa too though.

      Analysis for today: This is pretty simple I suppose, it makes sense some mid/bottom tier gen 7 pokemon would get obtainable in full. Not much significance since gen 7 catchup covers, like, the entire game so far, but at least we know gen 7 counts for the 2-a-day. I'll also start checking gen 7 first lol, because I double checked the first 721 wondering if I was going mad before realizing there were two lines just chilling in the gen 7 spot. 

  23. Quote from Hooligan, quote machine broke: I would imagine E17 might be launched during the Halloween, because it have got Ghost-type wild Pokemon in Tourmaline. I wonder if there will be an abandoned house in the desert, because of this, just taking reference from the Reversal Mountain from B2W2. I can also expect wild Flygon and Krookodile in the desert (not sure, just predicting). This is a funny idea, but I don't think the release date is tied to the holiday for the Pokemon appearing -- there wouldn't be a spooky area for spooky area's sake, so to speak. Regardless, I agree with that prediction, probably. Klang and Klinklang might be out in the wild too. No idea how Poliwhirl fits in unless there's an oasis. Anyway, @ OP, I'll continue doing my daily status threads, mainly because it's fun. It's up to you if you want to use them or search yourself (since it's likely fun for you too). Doesn't really matter either way, I think the list format you have is better than my quick one anyways.

    As a note -- this looks like we're getting a sp00ky area in E17, just in time for halloween! yay! 

     

    It's probably one of the caves on the OG reborn map. Important question is -- will Gastly be making its return here!!!? Especially since it lost Levitate, it wouldn't surprise me.

    1. Alistair

      Alistair

      Thanks for looking into this everyday! I suppose we're going to meet Dusclops and Cofagrigus in some spoopy ruin/cave in the desert.

      That's what I'm thinking -- that or perhaps Mirage Tower. Obviously the one in Emerald was... underwhelming? so hopefully this one will be different.
