#Motostoke

[pokemon-teacology]

The cold season is finally properly here! We had to break out Chomp's scarf (and the matching hat) for our day trip to motostoke (not for work, just for fun), and he is already starting on his yearly obsession with hot chocolate. We stopped at a coffee shop where I got a cute picture of him, so enjoy a happy, cozy dragon.

Lance Week 23, Day 5: Outfit Swap!

I'm back on my [Galar] bullshit again! I had a big brainwave when I remembered the tradition of football players swapping shirts after a match, and it was a great excuse to get Lance into that Motostoke fire-themed uniform. My original idea was to do a swap with Drake of the Hoenn E4, but you can probably already figure out where that energy was re-directed to!

Off to see a gig in Motostoke.

Some of the coolest, man-made places in the main-series games. Castelia feels rather small today after places like Lumiose and Levincia, but it was incredible for the first time playing thru White.

The streets of Motostoke were bustling with the energy of the imminent holiday. People going about with the last minute preparations and stringing up the colorful trappings and garlands of flowers. That did not mean that they didn't stop and give way as a Foreign Royal procession came through.

Aria had seen it all before, somewhat normalized for her. But this time she was astride the back of a rather large shiny Galarian Rapidash. And with a particularly grumpy looking Rowlet on her shoulder. The Rapidash looked beautifully wild and ready to thrash any that stepped too close. The Foreign princess was dressed in black, peacock green, and gold. Head held high. Behind her flanked by her personal guard, also arrayed in their best. Evvaine this time though was sitting atop the cart they had hired to bring in their things. Behind that was the usual small but intimidating regiment the traveled with outside of her Kingdoms' waters. Holding the banners and flag of the the Island and it's Royal Family's coat of arms. They rode through the center street towards the Castle. Aria projecting her presence psychically to her cousin to let her know that they were here.

SUPER SORRY IF THIS HAS BEEN ANSWERED ELSEWHERE BUT what’s Manda’s team like?

NAH NAH UR GOOD BRO I actually haven't fucking talked about it WHOOPS

So Manda's team is pretty varied! She's the type to go "You're my friend now, we're having soft tacos later" and catches the Pokemon. Has an affinity for anything that's dog-like. The funny thing is!!!

They're a Steel Type and Water Type specialist. Their ace is their Empoleon (Bertrand) and another "I will not go anywhere without you" is her Bisharp (Xander). Other mainstays for the team that she swaps out depending on the day: Swampert (Poseidon), Lycanroc Midnight (Keaton), Wisp (Chandelure), Jethro (Pangoro), Lily (Boltund), Arcanine (Eliwood), Whimsicot (Magnolia), and Braviary (Corsair). She does also have an all Steel team with Empoleon, Bisharp, Excadrill, Lucario, Escavalier, and Perrserker (aka what she lovingly calls her weird fucking cat).

Question for someone interested in the battle cafe, which region is it located in? I might swing through during winter break at Naranja-Uva Academy or something!

there are three of them in galar! one in motostoke, one in hammerlocke and one in wyndon. you can battle each of us once a day, we give out all sorts of items if you win. you can also of course just stop by for a drink and a cake.

the one in wyndon is usually full of battlers since there's a ton of trainers there, but the other two are a lot quieter.

WILD AREA FINALLY

[hazelplaysgames]

in the southeast part of Kitakami, at nighttime, you can find wild Gengar! they can come as low level as 25, per the usual restriction which i'm getting tired of saying, so if anyone's ever wanted to run a full on Gengar and can't trade, this is a pretty good time. there's an in-game trade for one in Levincia, eastern end where Iono gyms it up, just catch a Pincurchin, you'll get it at level 25. that one has the IVs rigged, and it's in your favor. there's also one in Giant's Cap in Galar, but that's level 60.

Alakazam could be found in some areas of Isle of Armor in gen 8, weather and water bike permitting, as low as 50, Machamp is seen somewhere in Giant's Mirror in Galar's base game, level 60 like Gengar, and both Golems have never been simple wild encounters, outside of Arceus, but like, all of them can be reasonably run there. i did forget, in Moon, there's a guy who would Trade you an Alolan Graveler for Haunter, so you can have that at least. that said, you can catch any of these four from various Raids in gens 8 and 9. but that involves doing the Raids, and i don't think they'll get easier than 5 star.
