So many shinys look dumb as hell. The only one I can think of off the top of my head that I feel looks better than the original is shiny Umbreon and the only reason I like that one is cause it reminds me of my dog when she's wearing a blue collar.

I was breeding Eevee's this past weekend for a Vaporeon and thought I might want to try for a shiny cause why not, then I looked it up and it sort of looked puke-colored.

I was referring to vaporeon, sorry.

When I was young I ate a whole bag of swedish fish and vomited all over the place and it looked the same color as shiny vaporeon, not a general sentiment since puke can be many color(ed).

I feel like I'm blanking on something here:

I am breeding a male and female Espurr, the male has infiltrator and is holding an everstone and the female has keen eye. Why is every new Espurr coming out with keen eye? I though everstone was a 100% pass down nature?

e: nm I'm dumb I'm confusing abilities and nature.

If you have a female pokemon and a male pokemon of the same type breed the baby will always have the same ablity as the female.

Ya gotta breed that male with a ditto.
The male can pass down his ability, it's just way less likely. Either way, I have a bunch of modest luxury ball espurrs with infiltrator now :woop:

Holy poo poo, got wonder traded a pikachu with the pokerus. I have never seen it before and I've been playing on and off since the original Blue. Busy infecting my whole team.

I picked Mudkip (AS) and I kind of wish I hadn't because there are water types coming out of everywhere now. I might have to adjust my usual method of 'stick HMs on main party pokemon because who cares' and start actually having HM slaves who get rotated in and out.
Zigzagoon/Linoone is a good HM slave, can learn cut/strength/surf/rock smash, Tropius can do the same but replacing surf with fly if you need it (which you won't by endgame).

I ended the fight with Incineroar dodging two attacks and willing itself out of paralyze to finish off Magnezone with a flare blitz.

ANyway, I finished the main story and am having a tough time finding a Jangmo-o. I read that it's on a little sidepath through some branches before the Altar of the Moone but haven't run into any yet. Is this the right place?

You can find it in any patch of grass in Vast Poni Canyon's exterior, including under the tree. However, it's one of the 5% encounters, so it'll take a bit.

The whirlwind combo ended up backfiring when it was used on me, as it brought in my Golem.
Figured it's rare, guess I'll just buckle down and grind it out.

A Fairy type would make that chain a lot easier, since the most annoying with Salandits at that level is Dragon Rage. (But then you have to worry about Smog.)
But chains aren't going to make rare genders any more common than usual, as far as I know.
Yeah, I was using Tapu Koko, which really worked out.

I ended up letting ember cause a burn on me, so Koko couldn't be poisoned, then Nature's Madness'ed it to red and healed back up to full every however many turns.

You could go rain-centric to enhance Mareanie's bulk even further (and give it Liquidation as the fourth move after Recover/Toxic/Haze) or you could try to get something that resists the things that are good against it, etc.
Ohh I like that, maybe Pelipper since it has drizzle now? Can do tailwind/wide guard or something, too.

I saw some movesets that had infestation instead of haze, not sure if that's worth it, though.
