    The "egg route" this Gen is the little boxed-in area in front of the nursery. I can hatch an entire batch of eggs in a couple minutes just running in a circle on the Tauros.

    i finally saw the animation for komala! my gawd its funny!

    so is it bad that i want to name my moon character Lillie and never evolve cosmog which i'll name Nebby?

    All of you do know that you can get a Happini via in-game trade at the Sushi High Roller in Maile City for a Pancham, right? No?

    Oh, and by the way, can anybody help me with trade evolutions?

    Heh, I got a Gible in Wonder Trade from Japan the other day and already evolved it once, and I'm only on Ulu'Ulu right now. The variety in encounters so far is nowhere near as versatile as Kalos, and those fishing spots are terribly overpopulated with fucking Magikarp, even when they're bubbling and should have something else I still get Magikarp. Is this to overcompensate for the water heavy routes in Hoenn???

    You get a million Pokédollars for catching all of the UBs, so I don't really mind honestly.

    Well, I've caught all the Tapus now. Tapu Lele was the hardest for me. My Magnezone's Flash Cannon took its health down to yellow, at a state where any other attack would've resulted in it being knocked out. So after paralyzing it, I started chucking various Dusk Balls and Timer Balls at it even though it was only yellow health, before finally catching it with a Timer Ball after I had exhausted about twenty Dusk and Timer Balls combined.

    I had a much easier time with the other two. After I had paralyzed Tapu Bulu and brought its health down to red, the very first Ultra Ball I threw at it resulted in its capture. Tapu Fini was a bit more tricky. To counteract Aqua Ring I decided to use Toxic only to find out that the damage from Toxic actually exceeded the amount of healing from Aqua Ring. Thankfully, with something like only one HP left, Tapu Fini decided to stay in the first Dive Ball I tossed at it.

    I kind of like that I've used a different ball against each of the Tapus: Tapu Koko = Master Ball, Tapu Lele = Timer Ball, Tapu Bulu = Ultra Ball, Tapu Fini = Dive Ball.

    You know, in general I've actually had a relatively easy time catching the legendaries in this game. Even when i faced Necrozma it couldn't do a thing against my Sableye and it was simply a matter of time before it decided to stay in that Dusk Ball.

    Anyway, I am very close to finishing the Alola Dex. The only ones I am missing are the item holding trade evolutions, and a few of the stone evolutions.
