Finally reached my goal of 99k gold on Shuffle despite countless uses on power ups/super balls, lols
Sadly it's capped at that point so i kinda have to spend it ... |:


Oh, there's a new competition ongoing - Mega Banette.
A reason for me to spend some gold in there.

EDIT: 38k gone but pretty worth it - super lucky on the complexety -1 tiles

I'm kinda regretful that I've stopped playing Shuffle, but Rumble World is pretty much all I've been playing on my 3DS of late.
NaomiMinette
Huh... Unusual for an event to happen so early...

i don't regret stopping at all. rumble is a hell of a lot better
NotEvenDoomMusic
At this point Shuffle is just a chore to go through,
i'm usually the type of person that really do not want to miss out on (limited) stuff so i'll just check in once in a while, stack up coins for emergency and leave shuffle alone.

That's the only reason why i still play it.

Rumble World is miles ahead in terms of "how much it can hold my attention", though i'm a cheapskate so i'm stuck waiting for the daily random castle invites (and sometimes their diamond drops) and the quests that i can occassionally pass through for diamonds to buy balloons at this point.
Now all i'm doing on RW is trying to clear the balloons one after another |:

Well, at least i haven't spent a dime for fun so far in terms of the F2P titles,
might consider joining the P2P club whenever in the future.

I currently have Normal, Fighting, and Flying Arceus with no Traits. I could've easily gotten more, but
SPOILER
stupid me decided to try to catch the final Eeveelution that I didn't have at that tower, so now Arceus doesn't show up as often anymore ._.
Bara-
Ahww
What you also can do
SPOILER
Try to get Arceus's stage
After you caught it, look at the Arceus Master title
For example, you caught normal, but you need fighting (the next one on the list)
Remember how many places further it is
Then set the 3ds date that many days further (in case of Fighting needed, latest was normal, it's +1)
Then open the game, you get a notification the clock is lost
Then talk to the mii which sends you to a previous location
Go there for 3 diamonds
It's the next type
Repeat all these steps and you can easily get all forms this way (same goes for unown)
NaomiMinette
Eh... I'll think about it.
-Maus-
Got 2 diamonds and next balloon costs 50
reeeeee

Two pieces of Shuffle news:

-The various Rotom forms are back in case you missed them during the game's launch.
-Enter this Passcode to get 5 EXP Points x 1.5 items: 04482045

Guide for making pokemon in Rumble wobbly:
-Teach a pokemon the Endeavor move (4* normal, grass type pokemon can learn it for sure)
-Make sure the area is clear of other enemies
-Beat the target up
-Keep spamming Endeavor (for bosses, do it when they try to rest) (it will take only 1 hp so you can almost kill the boss and spam it)
-Eventually you'll make the target wobbly, then use any other attack to finish it
-Enjoy your pokemon

Endravor is a very strong move
Deals around 3k damage in the final battle World Championship X

Another alternative is False Swipe, though not as many Pokémon can learn that. I -think- Pain Split is also an option, though I've never used it before.
Bara-
Nope
You need to damage in order to wobble
Eventually it deals 0
NaomiMinette
Hmm.. Oh well...

Question, though: do non-boss Pokémon get immunity from Wobbling if you heal them via Heal Pulse? I can't count the number of times I tried catching certain ones this way (i.e. damage them enough -> Heal Pulse -> repeat)...
Bara-
Not that I know of, but I have a Gutsy++ pokemon which wobbles 90% of the pokes in less then 2 hits (not even lying here), so I never notice that
NaomiMinette
I have a Gutsy++ Trubbish, but even it can't Wobble a lot of Pokémon, and I have Wobble Tree at the max level...
Azure_Kite
Anecdotally, I can confirm that Heal Pulse does NOT nullify the ability to wobble non-boss pokemen, as I've used it multiple times to wobble pokemon when I accidentally deleted my Endeavour poke.

That being said, the large pokemon on normal floors seem as though they will rather frequently have an "unwobbleable" flag, although it could just be the trait acting against the player.
deadbeat
not even 5 badge into Platinum, and i think this is the 5th time i've considered dropping the game again >_>
whoever designed route 210 is a horrible person

edit: 6 times now
NaomiMinette
Dunno who else still plays Shuffle, but anyway... Two pieces of news, again:
  1. The Mega Banette competition is over. You have one week as of this post to pick up its Mega Stone if you placed and a Jewel if you competed (placed or not).
  2. Pinsir is now available; however, unlike most events and just like the special Meowth stage, you can only battle against it once a day, so make sure to capture it!

Finally caught every pokemon in Rumble World. I must have spent at least 50 diamonds trying to get Mesprit and Phione, as they aren't pokemon that "appear" based on how much you need them.

is it feasible to catch every pokemon without spending money?
Azure_Kite
It'll take you a long time, generally longer than you'd probably be willing to play the game.

To get every balloon, you'll need 1240 diamonds.

Each and every Daily Challenge is 13 diamonds, so you'll get 364 out of those, at the end. Realistically though, limited by your Rank you'll probably only get about half of that because your pokemon are weaker than they should be.

There are about 30 free diamonds from the Market for playing with friends, 50 for streetpasses. On average, you'll get about 2-4 free diamonds every day through Spotpass and Streetpass bonuses, plus meeting them in game.

So you're still looking at needing to get about 978 diamonds if you want to get all the balloons. After all your "Bonus" diamond sources run out, you're stuck with a rate of 2-4 diamonds per day. That would take about 245 days if you were to get 4 every time.

tl;dr: Paying for at least *some* diamonds is realistically the only way you're going to stay interested in the game if you still want progression.

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugh... those two are being stubborn in showing up... and though I've had Mesprit show up before, IT WOULDN'T WOBBLE SO I ENDED UP KO'ING IT >_>

Something I should point out: regardless of paying for Diamonds or not, if you max out at 3k, you get a building that digs up 20 of them a day.

EDIT: Lol, I JUST caught Phione. Now for Mesprit... again...

I've had an issue a couple of times where you Wobble a poke and knock it out a half-second later, no poke. Frustrating as fuck when it's a Legendary like Mesprit.

All hail based Mega Sceptile

Happens way too often for me when I use moves that can potentially cause damage over time... and yet, those are also my Gutsy Pokémon...

Well... I feel like an idiot for not taking a pic of this, but anyway... So just now I went after Mesprit again... Azure's Mii was about to be supercharged-attacked by a Pokémon, and guess who it was...

Seeing as I REALLY needed to try to catch it, I let Azure's Mii get KO'ed ;~; (I'M SORRY!)

EDIT: Adding insult to injury, Mesprit STILL fainted normally despite me making it Wobble DX

Thing is, that's what I was using! Endeavour it down to 1 attack-kill, and the thing still doesn't give the goods even WHEN it's wobbled :(

I guess the imperative to get them now is lessened somewhat for me, but it's still annoying.
NaomiMinette
Finally caught all Pokémon on Rumble World. Now to get the rest of the outfits/frames/backgrounds/etc.

EDIT: The Mega Lucario competition returns on Shuffle but with some changes:
  1. It's now Move-based instead of Time-based.
  2. You need to be in the top 15,000 in Europe, 30,000 in North America, or 65,000 in Japan (it was less than this last time).
  3. To those who already have a Lucarionite, you'll get two Jewels instead if you place. (Everyone else, regardless of placement, will still get one.)
deadbeat
so they made it harder and with less winners? god dam i'm glad i stopped playing that
NaomiMinette
What? I thought they added more? Wasn't it 10k for Europe, 20k for NA, and 50k for Japan last time?
deadbeat
i'd need to recheck, but last time it was top 20k. though i'm not sure if we're using the NA or EU scoreboards
Azure_Kite
In AU/NZ, it's treated as EU, Dadbeat.
deadbeat
so yeah, it's 5000 less people for us. thanks a lot
