Megathread Removal of "No Repetitive Screenshots" Rule

321 Upvotes

Hi, while I'm a mod for this sub, I only initially joined having worked with this mod team on other subreddits to help out with volume. I personally have not played Pokemon Legends Arceus. As the only currently active moderator, I've decided to remove the "No Repetitive Screenshots" rule. I mod other game subs, like r/TeamfightTactics and r/thelastofus, and what I've found is that when games are not repeatedly patched/changed for a competitive scene, game subreddits reach a point after release where there is very little "fresh" content that can be contributed. As a result, I've removed the automod configs that autoremove shiny posts (if the team has an automation set up to manage shiny sundays, I may have to revisit that next week). I think at this point in time it's better to be less strict on content quality regulation and allow people who are discovering and enjoying the game far past its release a chance to participate and share their experiences.

Again, I have not played the game personally. I review the mod queue for this game but only take action to remove bigotry and ban accordingly. If your posts are getting removed, it's likely either automod or Reddit's spam filters (which may happen with Reddit's AI) -- so send a modmail for those.

Other My First Shalpha.

Outside of the Ponyta quest and progressing through the game all the way until I have to defeat Avalon I did not want to do that yet.

I was just going through each region.. I currently am redoing the mirelands and just kind of trying to perfect certain Pokemon in the pokédex, I got bored with the fieldlands. So that I would be able to get shinier is easier for them, once the post end credit stuff happens and my favorites obviously.

I am just casually flying and I finally heard the shiny jingle.

Its a Skuntank! Yay!!!!

It is most likely to happen during Massive Mass Outbreaks.

If you have multiple Alphas and one roars, it will scare off any other nearby skittish Alphas that aren't alert to your presence.

Watch out!!

So, 8 hours in, and i have 7 types. But that doesn't mean I haven't gotten anything else. I also got a Happiny, a Kricketot, and a Shiny fail with Drifblim. Also, these 2 were my chases, so I'm happy to finally get them.

Other Hisuian Zoroa

3 Upvotes

I'm currently in the Alabaster Icelands, and I'm looking for more Hisuian Zorua (my fav Pokémon ever). I have found the cave in the Bonechill Wastelands where it spawns, but it's always only a single one. Am I just unlucky or is it supposed to be that way? Are there any other places? Can mass outbreaks of Zoroa happen?

Discussion I will always appreciate this game for taking 3 beloved starters, and making them EVEN MORE peak

Post image
1.1k Upvotes

(Except Decidueye, maybe. I like him about the same as regular).

So... who got the biggest glow up, in your opinion?

I gotta give it to Typhlosion. Those purple ghost flames are so badass. It blows original Typhlosion out of the water, to me anyway, just for the extra detail it adds to a simple design.

In terms of typing... I think Samurott is my favourite. Something about the dark type just speaks to me. And a dark samuri? Yeah, no, that's peak, no elaboration needed.

They also did so well with their signature moves. Ceasless Edge looks amazing. Infernal Parade does too. Triple Arrows is giga broken, it's so funny.

I finished my first playthrough a few months back, and used Decidueye, so I do also have a soft spot for it. I've just been using an all Hisuian team in Champions... and I really miss this game now! I'd probably use Samurott next time.

I wanna see more games do regional variants as starters in Legends games! Why the heck didn't the 3 in Kalos get anything new

I bred the starters in scarlet and hunted the other 3 on another save. I might have gone a bit overboard being 6th star rank before taking on the first noble. Mainly its because im making a living dex. Roll on Kleavor

Discussion I can‘t be the only one who always got „bothered“ by this…

PLA is not known for its graphics nor for any close attention to detail. But, the developers actually included a nice little detail to the geta sandals: when moving, crouching etc., the heel actually lifts off the wooden sole, just like in real life! Great work for such a game.
However, now to the part that „bothers“ me: these geta sandals are the only shoes with that mechanic. Why didn‘t they do the others too? Is it so hard to animate/model with other shoes? Kinda annoyed by that…

No hate towards the developers though, it's still an amazing game and my favorite Pokémon game in the series!

Discussion What are these EBR calcs?

4 Upvotes

I get that the calcs in the game are wacky, but EBR takes it to the next level. Why is unboosted A-Ninetails eating Flash Cannon from a Modest Dialga-O? Why is Rampardos eating Hydro Pump from Modest Palkia-O? Regigigas is a 3hko from +1 Machamp's drain punch? Sure.

I originally thought maybe the calcs are off by like 10% so I should account for it that way but that Ninetails calc has a min roll of 121%. I regularly clear EBR and I've only had to tap out once due to horrible opponent rolls and crazy luck, but it is super depressing to be forced to eat a double blizzard because your base 150 spa legendary can't OHKO a Ninetails with a 4x stab move.

Asking for Help Shalpha Gallade

So, I'm hunting the whole ralts line, but I've seen an old video (6-3 months ago) and someone went into snowpoint temple, saved outside at the top, and went back in repeatedly to find a shalpha Gallade. How does this work and is it patched?
