Pokémon (Not-So) Griefing Thread - Scarlet and Violet Released with 10 Million Copies in First 3 Days in Buggy States

For Platinum and DS titles in particular, emulators are not to speed (my specs suck, so DeSuMe literally shits itself running), so I prefer cart (which I have to make a new file for). As for cheats, still have the same old AR DSI from my childhood that I like to use fro time to time.

Me, I 'graduated' to using flashcarts and modded consoles...
...though I still have quite a bi that I should learn. I was one of those who thought hat RetroGameFan's fork of YSMenu fixed everything.
 
I'm someone who actually prefers RSE to ORAS. Yeah, I know the games are an improvement on the originals (bar the sorry excuse for the Battle Masion), but I much prefer the pixel art of the older games. The music hits hard when compared to the remakes and I'm not fond of the halved odds in the remakes. I'm an OG shiny hunter who likes the odds high and hard, baby.

The R4 flashcart is a godsend to Gen 3 games after you remove the time bomb from it. I was able to add in balls before I got my starter so I could do a Mudkip hunt and not have to deal with the grief of the dreaded uncatchable Poochyena (one thing I'll give to the remakes: they shiny locked the little gold bastard so you can starter hunt in peace). It's also a good way to get to content that's no longer available like the Deoxys, Naval Rock and Eon events and being able to play my actual save files from physical copies on my PC is awesome!

Apparently, there are those no-label flashcarts that run WoodR4, which is the best kernel currently available.
There are also clones of the DSOne, but a lot of them fail.
 
I've recently stumbled across a list of names banned in gen 5, and one of them cracks me up for some reason.

Why JESUSSUCKS? Why not ban words like FUCKJESUS or IH8JESUS, or just banning the mention of religious figures in general? This one word combination is just so specific, I can't get over it.

I want to know which poor developer had to think of all the possible ways an 8 year old could spell fuck and have the message come across. So fuck, fuct, and fuk are censored, but what about fuhk? Fuuk? Foock? Surely they had to know this was futile after a certain point. Kunt is also funny for some reason.

Pokémon MOBAs release date is July 2021.

we’re now halfway through July 2021… and it’s still not any more specific.

At this point I’m expecting mh rise-esque timing - an announcement very late in the month saying it’s coming out like tomorrow.

edit:
Well fuck

In Pokemon FireRed and LeafGreen when Entei or Raikou used Roar to escape they'd disappear forever. As far as I'm aware that was fixed in HeartGold and SoulSilver. I never had problems with them disappearing when I played HGSS.

Trying to get the beasts in LG was probably the most frustrating ordeal about gen 3 for me imo, even more so than the Battle Frontier in Emerald. The game doesn't give you any hints about a legendary Pokemon roaming Kanto during the postgame like what RSE does with Latias/Latios; it's completely up to RNG whether or not you get that chance encounter, which resets every time you fly to another location/reload your save.

I don't even think a lot of players even realized initially that whichever legendary beast they encountered ending the battle with Roar ended the battle for good and you'd have to soft reset and chase it down all over again. The only way to really avoid the risk of getting Roar'd is by not using Mean Look, but rather having a fast enough Pokemon to do chip damage on the first turn, allowing said legendary beast to flee. Repeat ad nauseum until the damn thing gets caught. Of course, if you were playing back in 2004, you probably wouldn't have figured this out without a significant amount of trial and error and maybe some experience with the same encounters in Gen 2 to know what to avoid.

If you're playing on hardware instead of an emulator, you're better off getting Entei and co. by trading them from Colosseum. Or use your Master Ball I guess.

Or alternatively, pick Charmander as your starter so that way the one you get is Suicune, because Suicune doesn't get Roar like the other two.

So as it turns out I can use an R4 to unlock Gen 3 events.

Unlocked Deoxys and Ho-Oh/Lugia on a copy of LG and E, also found a way to override the region data on E so I could get my hands on the Old Sea Map. I am now the proud owner of a Gen 3 Mew. I'm going to try the Eon Ticket event next.

EDIT: Eon Ticket Works too!

IV Breeding is a pain in the anus, but it sure is worthwhile seeing all these quadriperfect/pentaperfect couples ready for breeding. It's a work in progress, since I've recently started cleaning up and rebreeding, but I think it's coming along nicely, considering I have over 3 boxes of couples.
