Ya know, it's a real dick move to fight Tapu Koko right at the end when you're not even prepared to capture it. Thing's got a capture rate of 3 and I don't even have a way of getting it a decent ability.

Which means, I gotta kick it's ass and get it when I beat the Elite 4 again.

You can rebattle Koko without facing the Elite Four, but you do need to beat them again if you KO Koko for the second time.

I like the scene in my head of Lillie scolding Lusamine for what she did.

"TRYING TO MERGE WITH ALIEN TENTACLE MONSTERS IS WRONG MOTHER!!!"

"I-I'm sorry..."

Just a heads up for folks who wanna know if a PokΓ©mon's E Vs are maxed without the effort lady: the area representing how many E Vs they have turns blue when they can't get any more instead of the default yellow.

Time for me to hunt for the BUFF MOSQUITO with an Adamant Abra in the lead.

Although I think my current team of powerhouses might be in trouble.

I maxed out my Isle Evelup. I'm putting Buzzwole, Tapu Koko, and Xurkitree on the Isle to train their Speed state for the next 38 sessions. Then Xurkitree and Koko will have their Special Attack maxed out, Attack for Buzzwole. It'll take a while, but this will give me my Battle Tree singles team.

Beat the league second playthrough(like 2 days ago actually). I used

Solgaleo Goliosopod(MVP) Mimikyu Salamence Raichu Tsareena

Goliosopod is boss. First impression is amazing. Tactical retreat is a double edged sword for sure. Thankfully his defense is so good that physical moves usually don't trigger it first turn.

Tsareena is better than I had initially thought. And her animations are so good.

Mimikyu is one of the best Alola mons for main game IMO. Disguise is great, pain split, can learn bulk up too..,one of my favorites.

On my way to battle tree now.

Golisopod is crazy in a Volt/Turn tactical switching team. Your buddies can hit-and-switch back to him so he can abuse First Impression.

Apparently using Weather TM moves can change the SOS call tables around. Or just switch to Drizzle Pelipper.

I saw the animation, Hob. I thought it was really cute, especially how Baby Kanga got on Mama Kanga's back for the run cycle.

With Kartana I went with two Jolly, one Adamant, and one Impish. Maybe I'll run some kind of SubSeed set on the latter.

Turns out you can Battle Buffet as much as you want. If you leave before all your turns are up you can reset it. It's the fastest way to farm money and experience in the post game.

I thought Lillie was going to make a confession on that one island but then she got caught off by fucking Alolan Executtor.

How could that possibly be faster than refighting the Elite 4?

If you're just leveling things to evolve, it's much easier and more guaranteed. You can't exactly take an entire team of babies to the League and solo it with one Pokemon reliably.

Takes less time to beat 8 or 9 genetic trainers compared to five strong ones. Money wise it's definitely faster.

I'm doubting it for levels, but Buffet is faster for money at least, since we don't have to plow through 5 mons to get 25k per E4 (after Amulet Coin), if we get 1 gentleman/madam that's 20k each (again, after Amulet Coin), and most level 70+ Pokemon can one-shot a majority of Buffet opponents.

How much does one session on Isle Evleup raise stats?

4 EV's.

So 63 sessions will max you out.

1 EV at level 1, 2 at level 2 and 4 at level 3.

It is kinda missing a Reset bag equivalent, but it is a nice passive way of training. Not good if you are in a hurry, but decent if you won't be playing.

Use a Machamp to shove a boulder in Diglett's Cave. The path will lead you to the lighthouse.

Further elaborating, 63 sessions in Isle Evelup mean 31,5 hours of waiting. If you set beans to last for 16 hours or so, then you cut that time in half.

... And that's called jazz!
