When someone else is mining in the underground, white sparkles will appear on both sides of them. Press A on one of those and you should start mining.

I'll be honest, as a pretty die-hard Gen 4 fan, all I really wanted out of this game was a Sinnoh game with updated mechanics (mainly no HMs, because being able to run through Sinnoh without loading my team up with useless moves and/or carrying around a useless team member to carry said moves is...

Porygon, too. Which I guess isn't too surprising since they usually don't let you catch him normally, but still, at least let us have the gift Porygon in Veilstone or something. :psysad:

Yeah, link codes in this game kinda suck. I remember trying to join a room with a friend so we could trade to evolve my Electabuzz and despite us both using the same link code multiple times, we just didn't get matched with each other for about 10 minutes. I dunno if this is a result of the...

That's weird, though, because the page specifically draws attention to how people without Nintendo Switch Online can get Spiritomb, which would imply that you could in some way get Spiritomb by using the game's online features. I feel like it has to be something that was at least planned at some...

In all my time trying for this thing, I never found a way to interact with other players in the Underground, with friends or otherwise. Mining with other players doesn't count for Spiritomb, entering their secret base doesn't work, even using the "Call" function while near another player yielded...

Probably not. I got an Electirizer Elekid after only 5 encounters having a Super Luck Murkrow in the front of my party, and those are the same odds as finding an Everstone Geodude under the same conditions. Weird as it is, I'm gonna say this is just your luck being astronomically shit.

Welp, that's Cynthia and the Elite Four down yet again. As expected, she was no joke, with her Garchomp outlevelling nearly my entire team. I led with Infernape, and thankfully I was able to U-Turn onto Electivire when she switched into Milotic, letting me get the big roadblock out of the way...

Does anyone know how to trigger the postgame Barry and Dawn/Lucas fights? I've done pretty much everything else there is to do in this game bar rematch the Champion a third time, but Barry doesn't show up in the Battle Zone and Dawn doesn't seem to want to fight me at all.

I'll be honest, I completely forgot that area even existed, especially since none of my friends who I've been playing along with went back there either. Either way, I just hatched the Riolu egg Riley gives you and called it a day.

Ice Shard is just in Swinub's levelup movepool and every Swinub you catch as of the earliest point you can get it has it by default. And yeah, Pokemon can spawn with egg moves in the Underground. It's actually pretty common, to which my box full of Swinubs with garbage egg moves can attest. I...

Mood. I literally did this for 2-3 hours before even fighting Gardenia just so I could have a Swinub with a physical Ice-type move stronger than Ice Fang. It was certainly worth the investment, but god DAMN, was it a timesink!

Just beat Cynthia on my playthrough. All in all, the difficulty in her fight did NOT disappoint; even with my team being comparably levelled with hers and with affection bonuses popping off every five seconds, it was still a tough time. Milotic in particular definitely gave my team a run for...

So I managed to get Spiritomb before reaching Solaceon Town. The bad news is... it's not pretty. As I'm sure you're all aware, in the original DPPt, Spiritomb was summoned by placing the Odd Keystone in the Hallowed Tower, talking to 32 other players in the Underground, and going back to the...

I saw one in a Crystal den when I was grinding for Elekids earlier. Just run in and out of one of those and you should find one. That's... immensely upsetting to hear, if true. What I wanna know is, if they really did make Spiritomb effectively postgame, at that point, why didn't they at least...

So does anyone know exactly how finding Spiritomb works? I've seen some videos and sites around the web saying you can interact with NPCs OR other players in the Grand Underground to trigger the event, but the thing is I haven't found a way to "talk" to other players in the Underground period...

I suppose there's some truth to that. Still, it cheeses me off just a bit how many sets in the Battle Tower and other facilities do shit like put a Scarf on an Aerodactyl that only knows Rock Slide, or slap Bright Powder on random things for no reason. No matter how you slice it, there are sets...

My issue isn't even that it's difficult, I take issue with the inordinate amount of RNG hax present in almost every Battle Facility. My experience slogging up to a 50-streak in the Battle Tree in Moon pretty much turned me off from Battle Facilities for life. (I played around with the Tower in...

Jeez, as if past Battle Facilities weren't bad enough with this shit. This is why I was never too broken up about the Battle Frontier not being in this game, to be frank.

Ngl, I kinda wish they let us get Rotom pre-Natdex in this game. Using Rotom in Platinum is so damn boring since you're stuck with its cruddy default stats (and even if you find your way into the Rotom room via cheating device or something, you're still working with Electric/Ghost no matter...
