Not sure which starter to use

The gen 7 starters have a weird relationship with me where i love the first two stages of the litten line but don't really care for its last stage, and then have the opposite effect with the Rowlett line where the first two stages arnt really my jam but I think It's final stage is amazing.

So I don't really know if I should go with litten and really enjoy for the first 2 islands and then kinda just be like eh (or I could jus not evolve torracat but then i can't use the signature z crystal the starters get) or be stuck with a bird that I just wish would evolve already until it becomes deceduieye. Also I wanted to use demise but it has the same typing as deceduieye.

Will not evolving the litten line past torracat harm my playthrough that much I've heard gen 7 is the hardest generation. Also if I gowith Rowlett what good fire types can I use instead of incineroar. (Besdies alolan maroowack I already have a few aloloan forms so don't want it to make too much of my team)

You've got to be kidding me.

After spending a freaking eternity trying to find this in ultra sun for my living dex (not even shiny!!) I am now on ultra moon trying to find celesteela (again, not shiny) and this is, I kid you not, the third time in a row I've come here. Not even travelling that far in ultra space either (like 3.5k LY max). And no sign of the ultra crater 😭😭 these games hate me (sometimes)

Does anyone know how to get porygon? (Ultra Sun)

I am trying to complete my dex and i noticed that it says that porygon doesn’t have a habitat. Is it a gift/event Pokémon or is it unique to ultra moon?

Synthia

So I've been reading about how hard people think synthia is so I thought I'd share my story on how I beat her by shear chance. So much like others, I was losing bad, to the point I gave up for a while. I kept dying to her (clefable? Clefairy? Which ever it was) until one go around, she used metronome and it gave her self destruct and killed her mom but not mine and once that pos was gone I actually beat her that go around. So yeah, I beat her by pure luck.

HA + nature alolan breeding

I am trying to breed an Alolan Marowak with an Adamant nature and the HA, Rock Head, for a new file. I tried giving my male Alolan Marowak with that same Adamant nature and HA an Everstone to guarantee the nature would be passed down, but I discovered that this also makes every Cubone the Kantonian version (every Cubone kept coming out with Rock Head instead of Battle Armor, and then I looked it up and found out about the Regional thing with Everstones). I don't have a female HA Alolan Marowak, I'm breeding with a Ditto. Is there any way to guarantee the nature AND keep it Alolan Marowak, or do I just need to full-odds hatch for the nature?

Edit: Forgot to say that I'm breeding in Moon and transferring to Ultra Moon.

Can you complete the Pokédex still?

Sorry if this question is asked a bunch, I couldn’t find and discussion on it.

As we all know, the 3ds servers are no longer open. Is it still possible to complete the Pokédex without trading? I don’t have a second 3ds so I can’t trade with myself sadly.

Is it possible to do something with scanning the Pokédex QR codes? I haven’t really messed around with those much at all.

Ultra wormholes

Know this is an ultra sun question so apologies if this is not the right place, but is there an easy way to tell what a “white wormhole” looks like? Playing through game and I’m color blind. Keep going in blue or yellow ones by mistake

Need help/explainer EV training

Hi all, I’m new to sun/moon coming from gen 9. Can someone give me a run down of how to best ev train a Mon here? I have a kartana that I’d like to start with just making it 252 atk 252 speed 4 hp. I’m a little confused by the pokepelago.

I put him in for 99 time (I think it was 99 not 100 I could be wrong) and it takes two full days to get it 100 evs in attack, is that correct? The hex chart looks like it’s higher than 100 out of 252 but that could just be the lack of pixels, but does that mean I have to wait nearly a full week to max out one stat?

Shiny Charm Help

I am trying to get the shiny charm in both Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon. I was wondering if anyone had any advice on getting the charm in the fastest way possible, or what pokemon are not required for it. Also, what pokemon would you say are the hardest to obtain?

How do get a Nidoran (male) with Hustle?

I have a Nidoking (with Sheer Force) and I have a Nidorino female (with Hustle), but thus far I haven't been able to get a Nidoran male that has the Hustle ability.

Is this just by chance because I was able to hatch several female Nidorans with Hustle, but every Nidoran male that hatched did not have the hidden ability- what am I doing wrong?

I’m about to cry.

When it says your game is saving, does it not actually? I was playing Pokémon sun, and I had gone to festival plaza to quickly level up my rockruff. I was trying to de the battle, and I needed internet. So I closed the game to open internet settings. The game had said multiple times that it was saving. But when I reopened the app, it took me back to the last time it saved. I had even manually saved after then, but it didn't show up... I'm about to cry someone help!! Is there a way to re find this data? Or Ami I going to have to build a Time Machine? Please tell me there is a way! Like why would it do that?!?

Made an improved version of my Blacephalon doll

Overall, the new doll (right) is way better than the old one (left). The pants are no longer invisible so it can actually stand, the head uses more rings, better glue was used (no more tiny pieces of tape hell) and it just feels far sturdier to hold

Is Lightning Rod that bad of an ability for Alolan Marowak?

Almost every guide / build has it either running Rock Head (hidden ability) which is impossible to get in-game, or Cursed Body, which personally I have never seen.

Obviously, Rock Head is usually used to counteract the recoil damage from Flare Blitz, but I actually have a Lightning Rod Alolan Marowak that uses Fire Punch instead of Flare Blitz. Obviously Fire Punch is no where near as powerful as Flare Blitz, but with STAB + Thick Club, Fire Punch still hits like a truck, and the added immunity to Electric moves seems to be a huge net positive. Lightning Rod seems pointless on a regular Marowak because it already has Lightning immunity.
