Shout out to you for this Bit the bullet, left Distortion World and got my Lvl 18 Bibarel. Taught it all the HMs I need and caught Giratina after hella Dusk and Timer balls

I don't think I'd ever be able to play these games if it wasn't on an emulator, save scumming way too clutch

My fault i deleted cause i misread the post

You might need the battery save (.dsv) instead cause aren’t dss files just save states?

Just transferred the dsv files into the folder along with the save states. Didn't work. Realised they were in a different folder than the Platinum saves which I've always had on this phone and works, tried moving all the saves and dsv files into there, didn't work either

Think I'm just going to finish this Platinum playthrough, maybe start Black 2 from scratch if I still have a Pokemon itch

Nah the dsv files need to be in their own folder if you’re still using Drastic

It should be called Backups

Changed my Drastic directory to the folder I got everything stored in on my phone called "Games". I see it created a folder called Backups, I think it automatically added the dsv files for all 3 Pokemon games to that folder. Got each Rom in their own folder with the same name as the ROM file. Savestates and .dss files are directly in the Games folder. Still can't load the saves

Think I'm not gonna bother with HeartGold, the fact that they didn't fix the levelling in Kanto really makes me hate that game. I was also at the point where all I needed to do was grind to battle Red, not gonna do all that again

I also got far af in Black 2 but at least the grind in that game isn't so bad with the shaking grass

Damn bro sorry the saves didn’t work. Wish I had more experience with ds emulation to help. If you still have the original dsv’s, keep em somewhere safe just in case.

You interested in rom hacks? So many good ones that build on the framework of the original games to improve flaws (like grinding) and add all kinds of new content

Lol

Centro talking out his ass as usual

They’ll be added later as regulations change, this one feels like the LGPE meta which was also casual friendlyish

Centro is not really a good source. They'll eventually get added. Let's talk about the softlock bug and other bugs.

Champions is completely unplayable for me. I got the softlock bug and it keeps happening so I'll play it again once that is fixed.

Oh yeah i know they not removed completively (i hate centro too) but still i think its kinda goofy how they are not in the game from the start

Game is so buggy, i dont think they need to rush it this bad

I didn't expect it to be this buggy on day 1 smh

Yeahhhhh I'll come back in 6 months. This game buggy as hell. I thought this was funny.

Only started playing champions today. This s*** is so dope, was expecting to be half broken/full of glitches or just a bad experience based off what people say online but it's just kinda choppy with those early cutscenes for me

Was not expecting the moves to have so many new graphics and look so cool and feel so smooth

I'm at 5/1 so far with a snow team, all sent in from home and half are shinies. Definitely loving the new systems for battling, this is such an upgrade tbh

Can you even add friends to it yet though?

Feel like a lot of the lag i experienced on day 1 is gone now. Been real smooth and bug free for the two nights i spent laddering so far. Noticeable improvement to the menu speeds after the maintenance update

Weather wars are so back

feel like champions has a long way to go. I think the idea behind an officially backed and licensed platform for pokemon battles is obviously killer and showdown proves that

they need to make things a little more seamless and it wouldn't help making things more visually appealing as well

also why would they not have 6v6 as an option

also in this type of game where you can freely edit stats, EVs, etc there is no reason to continue with the level 50 laziness of VGC. just use level 100 at this point

I'm towards the end of my Platinum playthrough, currently training to face the Elite Four. Just seen some of my Pokemon caught Pokerus

This the Pokemon I'm considering taking to the Elite Four and currently training up
Water - Golduck/Floatzel
Fire - Infernape/Houndoom/Rapidash
Dark - Weavile
Ground - Graveler. Might take a Ground/Water type instead
Ice - Weavile/Mamoswine
Grass - Roserade/Tangrowth
Dragon - Garchomp

Anyone can trade me and I trade back: Slurpuff + Aromatisse on ZA for Pokédex completion purposes

Pokopia rocks

I don’t want to beat it too quickly
