Water Mage Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 (edited) I've done this GTS trade with yourself before, and there's a less risky way of doing it. Just do it in reverse. Instead of depositing the Marowak first, you should have deposited the Feraligatr first as it was the less important of the two. Or better yet deposit a common Pokemon like Rattata or Zigzagoon first and ask for the Pokemon you're planning to trade.

Moblin Major General Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 PokeBank is the best way to store something like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magical Glace Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 I thought the Bank didn't do items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topaz Light Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 (edited) All I want is the Thick Club. Get a Pokémon with Thief/Covet Go to a place where wild Cubone appear Find a Cubone Use Thief/Covet If the Cubone hasn't fainted, then flee, regardless of the results of Thief/Covet (there is no element of randomness to Thief/Covet's success besides whether or not it hits) If you received a Thick Club, remove it to vacate the Pokémon's held item slot Repeat until you have as many Thick Clubs as you want You can do this for any held item that you can only get from wild Pokémon.

Thank you for enlightening the class on how to use Thief. Based 5% chance to find that thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magical Glace Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 There should be an ability to raise the probability of a wild holding something. Would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elieson Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Yeah, no fucking shit. Thank you for enlightening the class on how to use Thief. Based 5% chance to find that thing. Hey for what it's worth I had no idea how to use it optimally Topaz just gave good advice, in a FFTF thread too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zak Something Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Compound Eyes boosts helditem chances. also I had a Marowak friend safari which helps a lot because I looked up Cubone's location and told the game to go fuck itself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zak Something Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 So use a Compound eyes +Thief Vivillon? thatd be smart. nah i used a fainted Joltik as my lead and my Hydreigon i never took Thief off of for the job, it took maybe 10-15 minutes.

solrocknroll Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 (edited) jesus I don't know you but why exactly are you reacting like this??? Parrhesia had a very logical complaint, I mean, Feraligatr is not a rare Pokemon and thus there's no way to guarantee that someone else wouldn't take Cubone. Especially since Cubone might actually be harder to obtain than a Feraligatr.

Especially since Cubone might actually be harder to obtain than a Feraligatr.I'm honestly unsure how to react to this, because generally speaking most people would not trade a fully evolved Pokemon, ESPECIALLY a starter, for a base form pokemon, given the amount of people being idiots on the gts ("6IV Egg Moves" on goddamned everything asking for legendaries or fully evolved OU mons) but on the other hand the fact it had a Thick Club and Nickname probably told someone who just so happened to be looking for a Cubone and happened to have a Feraligatr that it PROBABLY was iv bred.i dunno mang the gts is dumb, one time i sniped a Shiny Sylveon from someone on there and when I tried to get in touch with him to give it back the first thing he offered was the same goddamned Sylveon it was the most awkward thing ever >~> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Original Alear Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 Its too bad this happened and I'm sorry, but honestly 5% chance doesn't sound so bad. Is it 5% chance compounded with small rate of poke appearance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
