Okay mates, so we have a pseudo-line right? Typical stuff. But this time, let's reveal the ENTIRE line BEFORE release! And that's not all. Let's ALSO prominently feature the Pokemon in the demo, to get players fully-accompanied with the line! By the time the game releases, they'll know this Pokemon line as well as they know Yungoos and Pikipek! They'll expect to see it during their adventure in Alola! Still with me? Alright, forget everything I just said from what I'm now about to suggest Let's put this Pokemon on the LAST island you go to! The very last one! And the encounter rate will be 5%! Just 5%! And it'll be at a level so high by this point, that you can level it up just once and it'll evolve, and one more level and it'll be evolved completely! But we'll still make it evolve very late in spite of this so tough luck if you're breeding one. It's Pseudo Tradition™ after all!I mean come on, this is fucking stupid. Don't put it on Melemele, sure, but why not Akala? I'd even be okay if you stuck the little shit on Blush Mountain. Is the marketing team so divorced from the developers? If you had got an early Jangmo-o, it'd be a Kommo-o or at least close to it by Vast Poni. Instead we get this awkward, "you can catch Jangmo-o but it's far too late to put it on your team and there's no natural satisfaction in evolving because it'll do just that in two levels." t. only a little bit mad

To be fair, only Gible and Goomy were early/easy to be found in their debut gen.>Dratini Safari Zone fishing or Game Corner. Forgot if the Game Corner one is version exclusive, though.>Larvitar Only after 16 badges. Gen II only.>Bagon Only one room in Meteor Falls which is only reachable after 8 badges.>Beldum Gift after becoming champion.>Gible Wayward Cave. In Plat you only need Cut, I think, which you can use after beating Gardenia, the second gym leader.>Deino Victory Road.>Goomy Two routes on the way to Couriway(?).

>>31476561 >To be fair, only Gible and Goomy were early/easy to be found in their debut gen. This is different. The entire pseudo line was officially revealed before release and arguably marketed/presented as something that you'll at least be able to encounter uncommonly, hell, ANYWHERE AT ALL before what may as well be endgame.
It's baffling. You could argue that it's as hard to find in the game as Dhelmise, who wasn't officially revealed at all.

>>31476484 They dropped the ball on all distributions though.
"Each island has two or three staple pokemon that make up 70% of the encounters"
"Sure, but make them all gen 1."

>>31477020 I'm of the opinion GF blew too much load during pre-release anyway. I think only about 15 new Pokémon and one whole Alolan line hasn't been revealed before release.
But yeah, I remember the threads here and at other places in which people were wondering if this was really the pseudo because they revealed it before release.

>>31476484 Speaking of Jangmo-o.
Could somebody trade me good natured Jangmo-o lvl 1 for my Pokemon Sun playthrough? Preferably in an egg. I'm currently playing Moon and it pisses me off that I can't catch one until just before the League, which is stuuuupid as fuck. Not a shiny hunter or anything so I couldn't trade back anything of worth...

>>31477020 I would be way more comfortable to believe that Dhelmise was intended to be the first Pseudo without a pre-evolution, considering that it wasn't revealed, has decent stats and 3 STAB attacks with its ability.

>Never bothered to beat white 2 >find out about challenge mode, get excited after how easy oras and sm were >its version locked to black 2 and you get easy mode in white 2 instead this might be the most retarded game design decision I have ever seen. Why would you even need an easy mode if you have to beat normal mode to unlock it?

>>31479722 Sounds like Johto, and everyone loves that shitty region.

>>31479753 at least you can find the entire Alola Dex in Alola
you have to go back to fucking Kanto to capture some Johto Pokémon because there's no fucking Johto Pokémon in Johto

>>31479631 And just wait. To unlock your exclusive difficulty, you need to beat the game. And if you reset it, you lose access to that key.
The only way to play Hard naturally is to have another ds with a Black 2 with hard unlocked and trade keys. Or take advantage of hackroms that enable it.
