Why did this game difficulty level feel so fucking hard? I mean, after beating the four members of the Elite 4 you're supposed to be the champion, then why do you have to battle Kukui? If I knew it I would have used potions and saved before the battle.

Trainers aren't supposed to use Z moves, what the fuck. Why was this game so hard?

How new are you to Pokémon games? You can literally KO it and then come back later to soft reset for whatever reason your autistic ass wants.

You can rebattle him.

>Can't buy Beast Balls
You get 10 per UB, and you can capture them when their HP are on yellow, most of the time.

For the rest, git gud.

Just nuke it with the Z move on the first turn, but wait to break Mimikyus disguise before nuking it.

>Totem battles like Wishiwashi
Wishiwashi was easy, so was Mimikyu, the only one I had trouble on was Lurantis.
>That fucking Elite 4 and Champ
Ehhhh, seemed normal I had a little bit of a problem at Snorlax though because most of my team was pretty HEAVILY countered by it.
>Not being able to save game before catching Top Kok
Come on, this is where I think this is a bait post. Everyone should know by now you battle it again.
>Can't buy beast balls
You get plenty, you should be mentioning apricot balls.
>Battle Tree
Haven't tried yet too busy fucking with other stuff first

>Totem battles like Wishiwashi
Turns into a little bitch if you hit it with one super effective attack. Seeing as you encounter about 5 other Wishiwashi before the totem battle, it doesn't take a genius to decide what Pokemon you should lead with.

>That fucking Elite 4 and Champion
You know which type each specialises in so it shouldn't be too difficult. Not to mention that the game shits out healing items at you so you'll be prepared without needing to stock up on much.

>Haunted Supermarket challenge
Easy as well. The only thing that threw me off was when I forgot about Mimikyu's ability and I wasted my Z-move on the first turn, but I was still able to win that battle anyway.

>Not being able to save game before catching Tapu Koko
You can rebattle it later after the credits.

>Can't buy Beast Balls
The game gives you like 50, if you have a False Swiper then you can catch pretty much all of them on the first ball. So you end up having about 40 left over.

>Battle Tree
The battle facilities have always been RNG bullshit, this generation is no different.

>I mean, after beating the four members of the Elite 4 you're supposed to be the champion, then why do you have to battle Kukui?
Every previous game has you battle the elite four and an additional trainer. Unless this is your first Pokemon game, then you're an idiot for not planning for this.

>Trainers aren't supposed to use Z moves, what the fuck
Only the captains, kahunas, elite four, champion and those additional trainers that require you to beat every trainer on the route have Z-moves. Those other trainers also have like one Pokemon each so they should be no match for a full team of Pokemon.

I think the problem is not getting enough beast balls to catch regular mons

You were supposed to defeat tapu koko the first time you challenge it, later when you can free roam again just go back to the ruins and touch the stone to challenge it again

Did people just not have a strong psychic counter or was I overleveled?

You do realise people only say that one specific battle was hard right?

Probably lack of counters. Thing hit like a locomotive but had the defenses of a disabled caterpillar. A single sucker punch or first impression always ohko'd it for me
