You can't buy clothes, but do you know what you can do? Plant berries, and then get more berries and plant them too.

<click> <click> What is it with this dancing?! Bouncing around like fools... I would have thought my own kind at least would understand the seriousness of our Adventurer's Guild!

Speaking of berries, a friend of mine recently managed to get 999 of every berry after starting the process early January. It was the only reason he felt like playing Gen 6 postgame at all. I have to commend him but I also have to wonder what the heck.

I'm going through and trying to complete the National Dex before Sun and Moon arrive, and since you can't transfer items through Pokémon Bank I don't think there's anything else I could do to try and "prep" for Sun and Moon. Are any of you guys doing anything before launch to get ready?

The thing that bugs me about knock off is that you'd think sticky hold would neuter it but you still take the bonus damage despite not losing your item. So its still an underwhelming ability.

The Pokémon Global Link is shutting down late October, so if you have any spare miles buy what you need and use them on guys you'd want to transfer (PP Ups, Ability Capsules, Master Balls, etc.)

And yet things like megastones and the Grieseous Orb don't trigger the bonus damage.

its real dumb.

what if it just weren't one of the best attacking types in the game, a type with no immunities and with only 2-3 pokemon that can really punish someone for throwing out dark moves on the switch-in.

My disdain for you all knows no bounds.
Maybe just remove the 50% damage bonus? 20 BP is too horrible to make use of, but a 97.5 BP move that can remove items (which applies to nearly every Pokemon in a multiplayer battle) is really dumb.

once you start, berry growing can easily turn into a sickness. I remember for a few months in 2004, I was planting and watering berries nearly every day on Ruby. I had hundreds of every berry that could easily be obtained. It wasn't Pokemon Ruby anymore, it was Berry Farming Simulator 2004. This also happened in Pearl soon after it came out. I was sort of relieved when it wasn't a big feature in gen V, because it meant I couldn't get sucked in. and then it wasn't as fun in Gen VI because it was just one large patch.

For me it's accessible because the map reminds me when I'm on a route where I planted berries. There's a lot of plots on my regular rematch and egg steps route, and there are two plots by the daycare too.

i think the only actually accessable arceus event was when you took him to that weird cave and he made a baby dialga/palkia/giratina for you after flashing a bunch of real-world images

The Arceus you catch isn't the actual creator god. It's just an avatar of the real thing.

It's one of the 'thousand hands' that the Pokedex describes him as having.
