You can use Escape Rope to leave the area without spending the turn?? :eek:
Did I get that right or am I misunderstanding?

I typically don't have issues with healing, since I just spam Struggle and Regenerator on Cyclizar, and xp-share whoever I'm trying to level. I also don't mind the time spent, since I've done it so rarely. I just pull up a 1-2 hr podcast and stop farming when it ends. Last run got me around 2000 by the time I was done.
You got that right, it's even in the in game description for escape ropes in case people forget. It was a big help now for keeping up with the characters' side stories along with having my Pokemon be decent levels.

Not arguing. It's great, but it's a shame that this has no adult content... if this would have been included I would have been in love. This way I'll just play it when I'm bored and in the mood for a normal Pokemon game.
It is a little disappointing, yes. We get brilliant artwork, awesome writing and it gets so close (There's an option to sleep with folks and peek at them nude, but you don't get to "see" either example). If ever there were a game that could do "adult game done right", it'd be this one.

Still, brilliant game in spite of that.


Can I import my save or will it cause trouble?
Using the Console Commands the game money starts to decrease :eek:.

For both of you: The Renpy Save Editor worked for me just fine, only thing that needed to be done was to tweak the Savetoken Python script to ignore edits. I also did that at one point for a "see all there is to see" run.
dont think any shinys are implimented
They are! I've got a Shiny in my game. I don't know how they work in the save state though, sorry.

When is next update? I'm from Venezuela, so X is a no-no for me.

Also, does anyone else get kind of screwed due to the extra week? I usually go to 3 electives and the level 30 test usually feels kinda hard, specially the fighting class one (donnu about anything that isn't fighting, ice, dark, psychic and dragon).

Bro, fellow countryman here. If you don´t wanna bother/can´t download a separate VPN, just download the "Opera" Browser that has an in-build VPN, that way you can go to X, Reddit,Cnn,all p0rnsites and everything else Maduro´s Cantv deemed "bannable".

Also, you can follow this game on Discord (that is still up) to follow the advance. IIRC, week 9 is in beta-test, but it didn´t have a set time for release. It is in the "soon"(tm) limbo. Should be March, at worst

Oh, nice, didn't know that Opera had that feature, thanks.

Do I just copy and paste what is in quotes or something else?

For people looking for a strong build, your starters are actually, mostly, a one man army. Pikachu can do everything, and Larvitar (later Tyranitar) is a perfect tank, weaknesses he is slow, vulnerable to Water, Ground, Fighting and Steel. Or you take Bagon (Later Salamence) Very fast and high damage, vulnerable to Ice, Rock and Electric.
Best Moves (Tyranitar): Fire Punch (Or Superpower), Crunch, Stone Edge, Earthquake.
Best Moves (Salamence): Dragon Dance, Outrage, Earthquake, Fire Blast (Or Roost if you think your Salamence cant tank the attacks).
I cant say if all of this is possible in the game, this is tournament knowledge, not ingame knowledge.

At moment, I think is not, if farming like crazy and focusing only in 2 classes, you could get around the mid forties... so no Salamance and Tyranitar (I don't even remember if Larvitar is there), but Lucario, Speon, Umbreon and similar pokemons that evolve through bond are fair play, since in this game you just need to focus in becoming friendly with the trainers specialized in whatever type(s) is the evolution you're gunning for, still needs an item that blue gives, though.

Actually, you can get Salamance if you sacrifice your character connections and focus exclusively on leveling up. One discord server player did it for fun and was successful.

So there is abso-positiv-alutely no chance for sexual content in this game?
there IS kind of a Romance in the Game so Far & 1 IMPLIED sexual scene but you will not see anything.

the scene i was talking about is with Klara, the girl Melody was Bullying in the Cafeteria... be warned though Klara is a bit... Crazy & Obsessive

That’s a damn shame. The art, writing and music are fantastic. Although that explains how we’re able to get closer to May despite her relationship. No netori for me…

Does anyone know which are the best Pokemon to get and which are the best electives to take WITHOUT cheating? Lucario is my favorite Pokemon so I chose that, but I kinda shot myself in the foot by trying a Jack-of-all trades thing and started off with the electric class BEFORE I realized Pikachu's level cap doesn't need it.

Spoiler to condense space.
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

These are just my observations. A lot of choices aren't all that bad, but as a general rule of thumb you'll want to focus on two or three types instead of spreading yourself too thinly. Dual-type Pokemon therefore become very valuable because you can focus on one of its types and go for a different one to cover any weaknesses.

yes, just like in any Pokemon games. I have assembled a group of my favorite Pokemon and I have no problems.

Hey, thought I'd let people know that week 9 is technically out in the Discord, but is going through its last few iterations of public beta testing still. Will probably take a few more days if you don't want to join the server.

If you're wondering why this update took so much longer, one of the artists dropped out of the project and several assets including 2 entire sprite sets had to be replaced. The community overwhelmingly voted to only release the update once no placeholder assets were required. On the bright side, it means a lot of the non-artist work for future updates has been done in advance, so hopefully things should be smoother from here on out. Also, changes have been made to the art council and asset submission process such that this sort of delay will not happen again.
