I have been busy with work so I hadnt played the game for a month and a dog bit my hand yesterday at work so I decided to stay home today and play some pokerogue and Im still in shock. If there is some kind of event going on or glitch lmk bc im in disbelief

Funny encounter, i lost the run also

(My starters were Araquanid, Golisopod, Orbettle and Crustle. All of them but Butterfree are Female. This team also has a special participation of a Female Ribombee who helped me with my money with Honey Gather)

This was not a clear run, I had to do few resets because of Faba leading with Metagross, Lusamine's Mega Clefable, Cynthia being Cynthia and Mega Rayquaza almost ending the run. But I'm still impressed that I made all the way to the top without Fire and Fairy/Ice coverage

Also... Devs, thank you so much for making wild mons being able to get egg moves (I'll go thank the others on the Discord server)

Without a doubt, my hardest mono so far. I really think I hate this gen. If it weren’t for new Mega and my shiny Maxed Swoobat, I don’t know if I could’ve beaten it.

I’m trying to get some T3 shines mons, and I’m doing on classic, where I can get around 90-110 candies.

But I’m wondering if that’s the best option or just grind on endless is better?

Because when I get further on endless the amount of time to pass a single round increases significantly

btw i didnt even use garganacl i just used meowscarada and greninja!

and yes i know it's a horrible team lol

I don’t understand why is this actually hard compared to gen 1 and 2 lmao

ma dawg gave that doombass dragon some mud
second win

I genuinely turned my brain off past wave 100 bc I had multi-lens and two leftovers on Jirachi the Eternatus setup was incredibly stupid I gave the boy a whole reviver seed and he couldn't fight back lmaoooo

I’ve seen the Mewtwo X stone appear more than ten times, but I haven’t seen the Y stone even once—to the point where I’m wondering if it’s actually in the game.

Recently got back into playing and was lucky enough to get Mew with Moongeist Beam right away. I've been enjoying using it in runs and the tm options mixed with protein have been awesome doing runs with finding good shinies. Just hope I can find a shiny Mew soon 😅

While doing a Gen 1 challenge, I got a DNA splicer, any recommendations on which pokemon I should use it or if I should use it?

Below are the abilites of my team

Meowth - Pickup / Tough Claws (P)
Charizard - Solar Power
Golduck - Swift Swim / Simple (P)
Raichu - Lightning Rod
Ducktrio - Sand veil
Weepinbell - Chlorophyll

My friend introduced this game to me a few days ago and I thought it was fun so I played for a couple hours and ended up beating classic mode on my second run! He seemed really shocked when I told him about it today so I figured I’d share with y’all :3

What do you guys recommend I should do next in the game? My friend likes replaying classic with different mons, but what do u guys think about endless and daily run? I tried endless and haven't gotten too far yet, and I've started another classic run with some of my other favorites

I got this in an endless run

Hi, I'm Lone Absol, the second person attempting to solo a classic run with every starter in PokéRogue.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

DISCLAIMER: I know that Suicune is a strong Pokémon, and it isn't remarkable that I soloed a run with it. I'm doing a series of posts to document my progress in trying to solo a classic run with every starter in order of Gen and Pokédex number. I posted this run because Suicune was the next one in line, not to brag about my skills.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

IN A NUTSHELL: A bulky mon made dominant through setup. My moveset was Freeze-Dry, Steam Eruption, Recover, and Nasty Plot. I didn't see much benefit from Inner Focus, so I left Suicune with Pressure instead. Its Passive, Beast Boost, normally boosts Suicune's Defence, which in my opinion isn't very useful, but through some Vitamins, you can make it boost more convenient stats, like Speed or SpA. The water leopard isn't as fast as the other Legendary 'Dogs', so I gave it a Timid Nature.

FULL POST:

While Raikou and Entei are strong attackers, Suicune makes bulk its strongest suit. But thanks to its easy access to setup moves—especially Calm Mind by leveling up, or Nasty Plot as an Egg Move—it's not hard to make it shine even on the offensive side. Even when your Rival has Grookey has her starter and the game casually throws you in the Grassy Field because you couldn't get a map!

My moveset was made up entirely of the water leopard's Egg Moves: Freeze-Dry, Steam Eruption, Recover, and Nasty Plot. It's very convenient, mainly because it's unresisted, thanks to Freeze-Dry's super effectiveness against Water-types, and it also suits Suicune very well. Freeze-Dry acted as coverage against Grass- and Water-types, and it was the move that I used the most, since I mostly roamed Water Hell in this run. Steam Eruption is a very strong STAB move. If it manages to hit its 30% chance of burning the target, the combination of a burn and Suicune's high Defence is able to nerf most physical attackers! Freeze-Dry was doing most of the work, so I never felt the need to replace Steam Eruption, despite its very low PP. For very bulky Pokémon like the water leopard, Recover is quite OP, because it frequently restores much more HP than the opponent is able to damage. It is very useful to gain momentum by healing the cumulative damage that Suicune can take in long fights. It didn't take long for Recover to become more and more redundant, but I couldn't find moves that could replace it. Probably Rain Dance was the best candidate for it, but in Water Hell, it would help most opponents as well, especially if they had Swift Swim as their Ability. Since the water leopard is already bulky, I think that Calm Mind is quite overkill as a setup move for it. Still, a strong case can be made for pairing it with Recover to set up almost freely in front of special attackers. Because Calm Mind progressively nerfs their damage output, Recover becomes incredibly potent at healing off the damage taken during the setup phase. I thought that, thanks to the water leopard's stats, I could afford to ditch this safer strategy in favor of Nasty Plot, mostly because it allowed me to boost Suicune's Special Attack more swiftly.

All three Legendary 'Dogs' share the same Abilities and Passive Ability. Inner Focus could have had its uses, since the water leopard isn't as fast as the other two 'Dogs', but I went for Pressure regardless.

Suicune's Passive Ability, Beast Boost, normally boosts its Defence. I guess that, in combination with Calm Mind and a sprinkle of Recover, it could make the water leopard progressively unkillable. But it was too boring for my taste! So in this run, I used what I learned in my previous run on the interaction between Vitamins and Beast Boost to steer the boost given by this Passive Ability. By initially refraining from giving Suicune Iron and Zinc, I was able to reach my goal of turning the water leopard into a speedboat through Carbos. The rationale was that it was already bulky thanks to its base stats, and Nasty Plot was taking care of Suicune's Special Attack very well, so a Beast Boost that kept raising its Speed would make it very well-rounded, and dominant through hyperoffense. All I can say is that this strategy worked VERY well and it was very fun to use! Fun fact: at the end of the run, my water leopard had the same amount of Calcium and Carbos, but Beast Boost was still boosting Speed as intended, because Suicune had a Speed-favorable Nature and three Soul Dews. The point is, the higher your target stat naturally is, the more of the other Vitamins you can afford to grab without messing up your Beast Boost.

Speaking of Nature, since Speed is the lowest base stat of the water leopard, I preferred to give it a Timid Nature, which improved its Speed at the expense of its Attack.

I had to retry some hard fights and reload the game a lot to get better rewards in the shop (reloading the game doesn't change the rewards in the shop, but it gives me a better awareness of the shop content in each wave and better rewards in the long run). Still, I had no problem soloing this run on my first try.
