Started exploring the second area last night. I always try to get the lost satchels whenever they appear, and the game put one all the way over in the southeast corner on my very first trip, so that was quite a trek to get there. I managed to stealth catch an Alpha Tangrowth, Yanmega, Carnivine, and I think Rhyhorn in Leaden Balls. Tried Lickilicky and Honchkrow too, but gave up after too many failures. I'm not sure what all is rare in this section, but I caught a Togepi, a Bonsly from collecting ore, and two Turtwigs. The Turtwig respawned, so I'm guessing it was common for that spot. For the first time, I hit the flashing red stage when a murder of Murkrows all ganged up on me (and then I recovered, I turned around and caught them all). I was also close to losing all my Pokemon once or twice, but that was more on me for being negligent with heals. My first rift also gave me trouble, but I caught a Porygon and 2-3 more Eevees. Also I have Samurott! Oh yeah, and a Graveler dropped a Black Augurite, so it's Kleavor time. Tempted to do a bit of hunting for an Alpha Scyther spawn first... --- Change is weird. ...

I also tried resetting for a shiny Shinx in an outbreak before that, but I'm not sure I was doing it right for most of it. I saved in Jubilife, cleared them out, quit. Then I rebooted and forgot about auto-save because I started out at the camp, so I disabled that and went back to Jubilife, saved, and then repeatedly cleared them out and reset. I just couldn't tell if I was doing it right or if I was just encountering the exact same batch of Shinxes over and over. After a while, I decided to clear most but not all and go back to Jubilife and back, and the outbreak was refreshed and that time actually spawned an Alpha (caught it). So I did the same of clearing out most and going back again, but then suddenly the outbreak shifted to some Parasects. Oh well. --- Change is weird. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Feel like I'm having some good luck with distortions. Got a Porygon in the first one, and just got two Johtonian Sneasels in my second one. And I found a shiny Starly. Absolutely would not have if not for the sound playing. Some of these Pokemon appear really small on handheld, so even after hearing it I still couldn't really be sure what was shiny, so I just caught all three Starly from a distance.

I appreciate being able to physically run away from fights. I was just fighting an Alpha Roserade and failing to catch it, and it had me down to my last Pokemon. Sensing my impending doom, I started running as my Ursaring's health was depleting and Samurott was forced out.

I think I've decided the battle system in this game is not good. Damage is so high that any strategy beyond rock-paper-scissors is worthless. It would be even worse in PvP so not including that was definitely the right decision. --- http://i.imgur.com/k0v0z3q.gif ... Copied to Clipboard!

That's why my Umbreon is legitimately my favorite Pokemon I have in this game. HP: 222 Attack: 107 Special Attack: 92 Defense: 220 Sp. Def: 236 Speed: 107 Going for stall tactics has always been my absolute least favorite thing to do in Pokemon games. My ending team in the last mainline game I played included Garchomp, Volcarona, and Scizor. Just give me attack power and speed and let me romp. But this game has been the complete opposite. Getting one-shotted by lower-level Alpha Pokemon is insanely frustrating, so getting the jump on something and using Calm Mind and Snarl to start things off feels completely game-breaking. --- Xbox GT/PSN name/Nintendo ID: TatteredUniform http://www.scuffletown.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/tRBE1.gif ...
