Well that's a whole lot of precise and reliable information, it is going to take some time for me to figure out what I will try next, I'm (as you guessed) not the most experienced and tactical player as I only rely on opponent's weaknesses, but that is why this forum is so cool. So what I might do is : 1 Send stunky back to its d*** box 2 Raise Donphant up to 43 then have it back 39 with common candies 3 Raise my Slugma at least 38 to have Shell Smash after it evolves 4 Raise Poochyena into Mightyena and keep its odor sleuth move And I should fight this way : (depending on gengars crit. hits and the potions (often used on gengar while I use petal dance on it)) 1 Petal dance from Venausaur on Gengar 2 Get rid of Banette with Acrobatics (Emolga) 3 Get rid of Doublade and/or Trevenant with either Magcargo/what is left of Emolga 4 Use Mightyena to take care of Rotom (?) 5 End the slaughter with Donphant's Earthquake to tear Chandelure into pieces and leave shade alone and frustrated in his d*** factory/plant for good This is what I have understood, I'll give it a try and let me know if I got it the wrong way. Anyway thanks for your help (I think I'm actually having more fun on the forum than by actually playing)

Thanks, Does anybody knows where I can train Poochyena and Stunky ? Because they are lv13 and 17 respectively and at this level rang it's mainly fighting lv18 Beedrills in the forest, which are effective ag. my mons....

Thanks Chandelure was his last : Gengar, Banette, Trevenant, Doublade Rotom, Chandelure (Doublade being sometimes 3rd or 5th) I don't like emolga (not that he is weak but he doesn't fit between Venausaur and Nidoqueen, I don't fancy cute flying mice, warmachines is more my thing) but I'm glad to have it until I get like Swampert (first pokemon I ever raised to lv100 on my own <3 ) I'll save Nidoqueen for Rotom, she's quite tanky already in comparison to Arbok of Croagrunk (but not more than 3moves) I definetely have to get myself a stinky furrball and train it up to get rid of Arbok Hi again, I went back to Periodt to capture a Stunky (Alleyways or garden) but I keep getting Poochyenas, Purrloins and Trubbishes, is there any condition to be completed in order to meet a Stunky, as long as it's daytime I haven't tried the garden yet. Obviously I didn't beat Shade so I cantt get Corey's Skuntank. Done ! Nidorina keeps getting destroyed by Rotom, Kilnk is not that resilient, well not at all in fact...... I just kicked Arbok and Donphan out of my team to get Skuntank and Poochyena (which is lv13 now), is Odor Sleuth worth keeping (ie to make them feel the wrath of my Donphant?) ? Edit : I just checked something and it seems Stunky evolves at lv34, but it only learns a Dark move at level 41 (or 37 if unevolved) at which he won't listen to my orders, so I just guess I have to be patient and une common candies afterwards, which is not this fun.... I like the challenge in this game, but challenge here is changing into boredom so I really hope I'm getting closer to kicking his intanglible a**

I erased emolga's nuzzle, I use his acrobatics more (against Trevenant and Doublade, pretty efficient) Indeed Donphant was supposed to get it at lv31, I didn't give him any candy if it's what you thought, I'm sure not to have erased Assurance with another move as it was the one I took Donphant for... My Croagrunk is quite useless for now (gets killed straight away) as he is only 28 Team : Croagrunk 28 Suckerpunch Arbok 31 Bite Hannibal (Donphant) 37 (Flail+Magnitude+Slam useless, Rollout too slow) Victoria (Nidoqueen) 30 Bite Bolt (Emolga) 39 Acrobatics+Schock Wave+Double team+Electro Ball Golem (Venausaur) Petal dance+Sleep Powder+Double Edge (useless)+Leech Seed As I said I went to Chandelure last time I tried, is it good already or is it like Corey's gym only 50% of the way? Edit : I swiched Croagrunk for Klink 30 (Thunder Schock, Gear Grind, Bind, Charge beam) Is it worth using charge beam to switch the field on or will it only make thundershock stronger ? I really enjoy the challenge in reborn, I'm just a bit p****d not to have had any rainy day to get Magby yet. To lazy to go for Skuntank and raise it to a proper level for now, I might not have the choice anymore soon...

I grabbed Nidorina (and gave it her Moonstone ) and Croagrunk, I managed to get to chandelure but it burnt my Venausaur to death (little hp left) and destroyed my Donphant with energy ball... Anyway I will level up my new fellas and it should be just fine, if it's not I'll change strategy and go for electrics, I do not have Magnemite but I have Klang with charge ball (or smth similar) and another electric move, will it do the job ? Edit : Anyone knows why my Donphant hasn't learnt Assurance yet ?

Well thanks for your answers, I'll try it out and I'll edit this post afterwards (hopefully to say that Shade went back to the shadows)

Team updated : Donphan 35 (was supposed to learn assurance at lv35, still waitong for it) Arbok 30 (has bite like mightyena, but cannot withstand enough damage yet) Slugma 35 (has lava plume to beat Doublade but faints in one move) Spritzee 35 Emolga 39 (acrobatics and electroball/schock wave could be useful if he isn't killed in one move) Venausaur 39 (with sleep powder and leech seed always good to have but I use petal dance) It doesn't work, my level cap is 40 (badge) so I can't really train any (but Arbok) much more, anyone knows when Donphan will get his dark move ? Mightyena is not a good option despite its bite because as he is dark he won't be able to withstand shadow claw or shadow ball

Hi everyone, I'm currently grinding to beat Shade, my team : Phampy lv23 (need to have it 35 to get a dark move and more HP) Spritzee 32 Gothita 31 (still gets killed in one move by any of his pokemons ...) Ekans 22 (has bite already but too weak, lv 35 should make it better already) Emolga 40 (same as gothita) Venusaur 39 (most useful of them all for now due to his large amount of HP) what improvements can I make ? For example switch Gothita with Slugma (fire attack for Doublade)

Ok, I thought level 28 was too much of a bargain anyway, ithanks.

In the guide it says a Nidorina can bee freed from a cage in a cave in Rhodochrine Jungle, I canonly see two caves (the one with the policeman and the one with the switch) and zero Nidorina. Anyone knows if it has been deleted with an update or where is the cave in question ?

Hey thx, didn't realise BGM ME stood for "music"

Hey, not that I don't like the music in this game but still, how can I turn th sound off ? Or even only the music ?
