Okay, for MOON and ULTRA MOON players, if you’re tired of using rain dance, I’ll help you out. 1. Change your DS’s time until you are in the 5-6 PM area. (If you’re a SUN and ULTRA SUN player, this is the only step to do to make Malie Garden/Lush Jungle rain.) 2. Make sure you have your box legendary (Solgaleo for (Ultra) Sun, and Lunala for (Ultra) Moon), and put them in your party. 3. Go to the Altar of the Sunne/Moone (depending on which game again). 4: Go through the alternative time. And there you go. If you have problems, look at your DS’s time and make sure it’s in between 17:00 to 18:00 (because Nintendo uses military time). Oh also, here are the rain cycles: Lush Jungle/Malie Garden: 5-6 PM (17-18 o’clock) Exeggutor Island: Most of the time Po Town/Route 17: Always (One more thing I suggest evolving Sliggoo in Exeggutor Island because it has higher leveled Pokémon than Route 17) Like to get this to the top and hope it helps!
PSA: Be sure to check the rates on the wiki, different areas have different rates depending on the weather. Example - On route 17 the spawn chance for castform during rain is 1%, but 11% during hail or sandstorm. At Tapu village the spawn rate for castform during rain is 1% during hail and 11% during rain or sandstorm, ect. Don't let your time be wasted! GL all!
great video. you seem like a bright guy. I get so sick of people trying to be youtubers and they aren't smart enough to think of grabbing goggles or bringing false swipers. good job.
I appreciate the standing up, but I think Ph0enixFan7 was making a funny. As it's popularly believed (joked) that Oak sent out Red/Blue on their mission and they were 2 of the 3 people who lived in the town. Winky Face. lol
Really impressed with your videos. The quality is phenomenal, your voice is easy to listen to, you are informative, you aren't boring... You have my subscription. Hope to see your channel grow.
I only started doing gaming about 3 weeks ago. Give it time, it's just a baby seed of a channel, but spread the word and I'll forever keep you in my Snorlax's heart.
ZeeGee What I did (cause I only needed Politoed to complete my dex) is just level it up to Poliwhirl then trade it with a buddy while it was holding a King's Rock to get Politoed shiny.
Rydersharpshoota thats what got me after I found him after an hour of torture trying to find him. Then poof he was gone after breaking out of 5 of my pokeballs...
Hayley Williams I mean in terms of hunting for rare encounters like politoed. I just think that all Pokemon should be able to be the the first Pokemon in that encounter. Other than that, SOS methods aren't really that bad for IV and shiny hunting.
thats the point, to make some pokemon interesting and rare, if youre shiny hunting or iv hunting, just find the thing and breed it. you can probably catch a Turtonator/Drampa and put it on the GTS for a politoed, people give anything for these guys to finish the dex
Wait what turtonator and drampa are rare? well shit i have a turtonator in a beastball that I got from WT and another turtonator that i caught and i also have a drampa
Kimberly Browne Same here. Unfortunately, it was also my first shiny in this gen: I wanted that title to go to an actual Alolan Pokémon. Regardless, I love my shiny Politoed, "Pepe".
I finally caught it, after 2 hours of chaining for it, finally.....and i had to use my freaking MASTERBALL TO CATCH THE LITTLE SH*T BECAUSE IT USED PERISH SONG ON ITS 1ST TURN IN BATTLE. WHO THE HELL CREATES AN SOS BATTLE POKEMON WITH A 1% ENCOUNTER RATE WHEN IT HAS TO BE RAINING AS WELL....WITH F*CKING PERISH SONG!!!!!!
True you can, but even then, everyone seems to want a Slowking, Porygon2/Z, Scizor, Weavile, Milotic, and other such Pokemon. That or level 91 or higher non-evolved Pokemon (seriously, wtf). The GTS is still cancer, with or without people asking for Legendaries.
Update: Found it about an hour after this comment. It was at Perish Song Count 1, and I realized this was the most masterball worthy moment I've ever had, so I used it.
I need to get a Politoed to complete the Pokédex, but I don't really want to go through the trouble of catching him. And all the GTS offers are insane. AND people won't even accept a level 54 Lapras with Pokerus for it!
Ansem UCHIHA Oh, nvm. I actually got a Politoed recently using my Lapras. Then I proceeded to get a TON of trade evos, and took eggs from them. It's insane what Politoed can do. And how much item trade evos go for on the market in general.
2 hours in, and here are the facts: •No politoed •No shiny poliwag •I have 2/20 pp for my last Pokémon (Kartana) Then...POLITOED APPEARS, here are the facts: •It used perish song... One turn: I killed that stupid poliwag I have been staring at for like 30 min Two turns: I used great ball. FAIL Three turns: I used ultra ball and say, “YEET!”. SUCCESS! Tysm for this vid lol
Kyrielle I did the same when I found out bagon had a 10% encounter rate at kalae bay insted of the 1% on route 3. I named the shelgon disappointmen, beacause I wantet a salamence
On December 25th and 26th, send a great pokemon on wonder trade as an act of kindness to all the people who got pokemon Sun and Moon for Christmas! (SHARE IF THIS IS A GOOD IDEA!)
I did it! Took me 3 nights, and not being sure if Poliwhirl could call them, but finally! I wasted one turn to false swipe him. Then another one to take out his Poliwhirl partner. And then I realised I didn't want to risk it, so I spent a Master Ball on Politoed. No legendary was worth wasting this opportunity.
Guys I Help You Out Thank Me Later Gabite-2:59 Goomy-4:30 Politoad-1:16 Vanillite-3:40 vanillish-4:22 Alolan Vulpix-3:24 Trapinch-3:24 You're Welcome Peeps And Happy Hunting!
You know I found goomy straight away, but I didn’t care because I just wanted money from the Pokédex quest, and then I released it, now I realize how rare it was😭
Literally two of my Level 60 Pokemon fainted while I was trying to get Gabite. And I had safety goggles, was fighting Trapinch, and was using a flying type!
Took me 5+ SOS tries (12+ hours which is always super fun when the developers decide to have it be under strict conditions, 1% encounter rate, and have it know PERISH SONG which according to the comments and experience, it will almost always use as its first move) so I've some advice to save someone's sanity that also does not use GTS: - Moon users will not be able to take advantage of the natural rain because it's so poorly thought-out and is still considered day when it rains in Malie, so bring several Pokemon with Rain Dance/Drizzle and Leppa berries - If you run into a Poliwrath, it's the wrong time and Politoed will not ever show during that battle - Bring Pokes who can learn Taunt and use it as soon as it shows to avoid Perish Song - Use leftovers to avoid constant healing and use Pokes that could make good use of the speed EVs - Ghost and water Pokemon (Jellicent can learn Taunt/Rain Dance and may have Water Absorb ability, Decidueye can learn False Swipe + can OHKO with grass moves, Parasect w Dry Skin heals from water and can learn False Swipe + Spore to put it to sleep) will make it MUCH less annoying if battling Poliwhirl - Electric types are also an option as they can't be paralyzed and are strong to water - Do not use Pokes with Synchronize as if it's paralyzed, it will transfer to target, thus ending the call chain - The time of day the battle starts is what determines if it'll appear so you can leave your DS if taking a break - Timer balls are your best bet 99% of the time for SOS calls but dive or nest balls will be better if it shows early on. Ultras work too (esp early on) but for something this annoying and with limited PP, stock up on proper balls
Thanks that's awesome man alot of help here learned alot about sos battles and if I won the drawing any legendary is fine with me not a picky trainer I mean I Gotta Catch'em All lol
+Robert Faucher well good luck. most girls use guys to get pokemon they can't catch themselves. if the feels are unrequited then you're giving your pokemon out for nothing dude haha
I love this channel I stumbled upon it when I was researching about sun and moon before it came out and I have watched it ever since pls keep up the good work pls don't ever quit 😁 p.s. can I have arceus as my Birthday is in August it would mean the world
Hey Austin, trying to catch Vanillish and was wondering, What's the encounter rate of Vulpix on Mnt. Lanakila? the first patch of grass you see in the snow area.
Austin john, you are my favourite youtuber! I have watched your wonderlocke videos and it was CRAZY when you got a marshadow in a wonder trade! Im gonna try this method mostly to get castform because in pokemon omega ruby and alpha sapphire you can only get one castform as a gift. Also, in the give away, I really want a Mew. Thank Austin john!
Okay, for MOON and ULTRA MOON players, if you’re tired of using rain dance, I’ll help you out.
1. Change your DS’s time until you are in the 5-6 PM area. (If you’re a SUN and ULTRA SUN player, this is the only step to do to make Malie Garden/Lush Jungle rain.)

And there you go. If you have problems, look at your DS’s time and make sure it’s in between 17:00 to 18:00 (because Nintendo uses military time).
Oh also, here are the rain cycles:
Lush Jungle/Malie Garden: 5-6 PM (17-18 o’clock)
Exeggutor Island: Most of the time
Po Town/Route 17: Always
(One more thing I suggest evolving Sliggoo in Exeggutor Island because it has higher leveled Pokémon than Route 17)
Like to get this to the top and hope it helps!

"Yeah took me about 20 minutes for the politoad to appear"
Me:*spends an hour and half and still cant find it*
*finds a shiny before finding a politoed*
Me: spends weeks and people are complaining about a day
great video. you seem like a bright guy. I get so sick of people trying to be youtubers and they aren't smart enough to think of grabbing goggles or bringing false swipers. good job.
thank you sir. I studied at Smogon University. :D
Austin John oh wow....tutored by professor oak himself.....oh he didn't try go after your mum did he?...
Ph0enixFan7 well I don't see you making a guide for sos battles to help people
I appreciate the standing up, but I think Ph0enixFan7 was making a funny. As it's popularly believed (joked) that Oak sent out Red/Blue on their mission and they were 2 of the 3 people who lived in the town. Winky Face. lol
Austin John my name is red for Pokemon sun and I would like Genecect
I've always wanted to catch Goomy and Goomy. According to the title, that is.
Hunter Koenig he fixed it
2.5 hours of freaking tadpoles and I finally got my politoed with hidden ability
Me 2 after 2 hrs
Lucky you, took me like 4-5 hours a day for like 5 days, I almost gave up
just now i kill politoed because i dont like politoed 😂
May I know it's hidden ability
Weeks for me and I still haven’t caught a politoed for my dex
Don't know why but it was funny when you said that the dugtrio's kept killing each other..also thanks! I didn't know where to find Trapinch.
In the desert, those rustling dirt patches, there's a 10% chance he'll be the encounter.
Erebus The Primordial Deity And when he said don't worry baby chicks lmao
Austin John Do you know the chance of him calling a Gabite though?
I Just Watched This Video, And I Like It Now Im Subbed To You, And Maybe I Will Enter The Giveaway With The Mythical Pokemon Mew!
Erebus The Primordial Deity s
Really impressed with your videos. The quality is phenomenal, your voice is easy to listen to, you are informative, you aren't boring... You have my subscription. Hope to see your channel grow.
You can find Castform in sandstorm because I found one when I was chaining for a Shiny Trapinch or Gabite.
You only have 500 or so subscribers ?!?!? you deserve a lot more, you have amazing content
I only started doing gaming about 3 weeks ago. Give it time, it's just a baby seed of a channel, but spread the word and I'll forever keep you in my Snorlax's heart.
Austin John 😲 A RUclipsr replied, don't forgot me when you hit 50 million subscribers
Brandon Merino he has 290k subscribers
Okay so uhm, I've been looking for this Politoed for an hour, and I never got it... But I got a shiny Poliwag instead...
cool
Same. I just traded the shiny poliwag on gts for politoad, which I then traded for syllvally
same
ZeeGee What I did (cause I only needed Politoed to complete my dex) is just level it up to Poliwhirl then trade it with a buddy while it was holding a King's Rock to get Politoed shiny.
same happened to me lol
Thanks Austin, was able to find Politoed and Vanillite easily with your method! Can finally finish my Alolan dex now!
Getting Politoed is way harder than Salamence
AWildNintenerd Try getting a Gabite with rough skin, its hell.
Bal Selm
just wonder trade man. SO many Gibles in Beast Balls. Too many to count!
oh i got one on wonder trade
WonderTrade has not been that kind to me. I keep getting things like Pikipeck and caterpie
yeah
Guys I found out that Politoad knows perish song yay my life
Rydersharpshoota thats what got me after I found him after an hour of torture trying to find him. Then poof he was gone after breaking out of 5 of my pokeballs...
Rydersharpshoota DOES THAT MEAN.LAPRAS V2?
well i was in ultra sun shiny hunting and TWO SHINY ALTARIA NEW PERISH SONG!
sheesh
#TRIGGERD
I've been watching your videos for a couple of weeks now and they're really helpful! I just subscribed :)
I wanna know who at game freak thought SOS battles were a good idea, and who thought to give politoed EFFIN' PERISH SONG.
Hayley Williams I mean in terms of hunting for rare encounters like politoed. I just think that all Pokemon should be able to be the the first Pokemon in that encounter. Other than that, SOS methods aren't really that bad for IV and shiny hunting.
thats the point, to make some pokemon interesting and rare, if youre shiny hunting or iv hunting, just find the thing and breed it. you can probably catch a Turtonator/Drampa and put it on the GTS for a politoed, people give anything for these guys to finish the dex
GabeSage40 M. WHO DECIDED ON GIVING LAPRAS PERISH SONG WHEN HES 5 %
Wait what turtonator and drampa are rare? well shit i have a turtonator in a beastball that I got from WT and another turtonator that i caught and i also have a drampa
I got a beldum in a beast ball to rare to happen XD
when you get a shiny poliwag but you wanted a politoed. :(
Kimberly Browne Same here. Unfortunately, it was also my first shiny in this gen: I wanted that title to go to an actual Alolan Pokémon. Regardless, I love my shiny Politoed, "Pepe".
my first was a pikikikikipek
:)
if i can get a politoed, i rule the GTS
My shiny poliwag is named poliswag lmao
I finally caught it, after 2 hours of chaining for it, finally.....and i had to use my freaking MASTERBALL TO CATCH THE LITTLE SH*T BECAUSE IT USED PERISH SONG ON ITS 1ST TURN IN BATTLE. WHO THE HELL CREATES AN SOS BATTLE POKEMON WITH A 1% ENCOUNTER RATE WHEN IT HAS TO BE RAINING AS WELL....WITH F*CKING PERISH SONG!!!!!!
even worse, the rain only appears at specific time only.
This is why I love GTS, saves me so much time
Frenchy SAME
Frenchy i like the GTS but SOOOOOOOOO many people only put shit out for legendaries
Yea if you don't mind giving up your Type: Null, cover Legendary, or a Tapu for it. The GTS can be cancer.....
You can make it so that people that request legendaries don't show up and make it so it shows trades that want Pokemon that you have.
True you can, but even then, everyone seems to want a Slowking, Porygon2/Z, Scizor, Weavile, Milotic, and other such Pokemon. That or level 91 or higher non-evolved Pokemon (seriously, wtf).
The GTS is still cancer, with or without people asking for Legendaries.
THIS helped since I.never knew I could find politoad in the wils
Hug you
0:50 you can also catch a slowking from an sos slowpoke
You can?!
@@MrPlague25 Yeah bro but the chances are low in fact i got a shiny slowpoke while trying to sos a slowking
3hours pass...0politoed 1shiny poliwag 1shiny poliwhirl... thx austin 10/10 will farm shiny again
lololol. Anytime. Get the king's rock post Elite 4 from the Trainer school and embrace the Shiny POLITOED!
I want celebi and the june mystical pokemon, I didn't realize it intil its too late (now)
LMAO I got the Politoed in less than a minute xD
3 hours in. No politoed. No shiny poliwag. Not even a freaking castform. I will use my masterball if Politoed is down to its last perish song.
Update: Found it about an hour after this comment. It was at Perish Song Count 1, and I realized this was the most masterball worthy moment I've ever had, so I used it.
...... you coulda just brought someone with hypnosis to prevent him from ever using it...
hereonly2comment you're looking for it at night, right?
Uchiha Rinnegan ...or use timer balls if they appear
First attempt, 3DS died.
Second attempt, Politoed died.
Third attempt, no luck.
On my 4th, with me luck.
To save it from dying find a Pokemon that can learn false swipe
@@le_master_frog8698
My guy you dont think I know what false swipe is
Also, It doesnt help the problem
Catching Politoed is such a Kings Rock Saver,
Flyingbread 11 I've gotten one just now. You need to be very patient... and lucky
Did you just use your kings rock on sun and moon for a politoed? xD
Flyingbread 11 No, for Slowpoke
JustA GameNewb Yay
can one of trade me for politoed. I've been tryong to catch it for 6 days now. HELP ME
yo i was sos battling a poliwag and on the first try i got a politoed xD
Peashooter 001 LUCKY :(
Peashooter 001 WOW THAT'S LUCKY
cool you got a politoed well I got a feebas at brooklet hill and it a female, am so lucky.
:(((
In Pokémon Ultra Sun, I got a Gible with her hidden ability from a Wonder Trade, so-
Helpful guide, though!
2:36 I actually found a shiny poliwag while trying to get these weather sos Pokémon half a year ago lmaooo
Blaze Gamer i got shiny politoed lol
Question, now that Poke Bank is out would Heavy Rain from Primal Kyogre work as well or will it only work with normal rain.
GEEZ I WONDER
I dunno... google it
I don't know ether search it up on RUclips it will tell you the answer
Wouldn't regular kyogre's ability be drizzle? If so just use that.
No primal Kyogre does not work
So happy, just found Politoed after like 5 encounters :)
I've been trying for two hours for Politoed!!! No luck.
Thief is very helpful also remember the odds of wild items can be increased with compound eyes
meloeta pls
It was on my 3rd try
I spent 5 days. For Gabite.
goomy took so long i searched for 3 hours and couldnt find one nut i did find a shiny goomy in end!😛
Hoop please. Awesome vids BTW, you're the best for exact in-game info hands down.
I just found a blue and pink politoed while doing this is my game glitched?
+IceIce Gaming that would be a shiny!!!! Pics?
Austin John omg so glad I caught that "glitch"
+Austin John that's a 1/409,200 spawn.
Austin John WHAT IS THIS WIZARDRY!?
IceIce Gaming ehh... Just some kid trying to get attention
I tried to get politoed
Instead, I got a shiny poliwag!
thanks a lot, this vid helped with the politoed. btw, that Arceus looks nice
Castform spawns during sandstorms or my version of Moon is bugged.
Giddy Cat there's a one percent chance of castform appearing in the sandstorm so you're extremely lucky
very sad
This felt like a National Geographic documentary
it's all about finding pokemon in their natural habitat.... and sticking a finger up their bumm,
Austin John 😂😂😂
Austin
This is helpful AND funny. I spent so long looking for Castform...
I need to get a Politoed to complete the Pokédex, but I don't really want to go through the trouble of catching him. And all the GTS offers are insane. AND people won't even accept a level 54 Lapras with Pokerus for it!
Marshadow the Magical when I get Internet I'll trade you a poliwhirl with Kings Rock if you do the same so we can both get polited
Ansem UCHIHA Oh, nvm. I actually got a Politoed recently using my Lapras. Then I proceeded to get a TON of trade evos, and took eggs from them. It's insane what Politoed can do. And how much item trade evos go for on the market in general.
That's good I have a bunch of lapras and only the trade evos besides alakazam and gengar golem to complete the pokedex
I know the feeling man people want legendaries in exchange which is ridiculous
ridiculous lol
2:47 oh wow nice *sobs because it took me an hour and a half*
thanks! this really helped
named my new gabite john
lol
wow...I found a shiny poliwag while trying to sos chain a politoed...don't know how to feel...
I feel like you should give that bad boy a king's rock!
Same here
the video says it well "SPLOOSH!"
I remember battling with pancham and it called goomy on the first SOS call.
Omg when I traded someone they had a shiny goomy and they wanted a ditto I had so much ditto the was very lucky of me tbh
So I got Gabite on the first encounter... but then I false swipes and then it used takedown -.-
Robert Gee same
Robert Gee its called false swipe. Daaaaaa!
Use a Marowak
same... it was a shiny
2 hours in, and here are the facts:
•No politoed
•No shiny poliwag
•I have 2/20 pp for my last Pokémon (Kartana)
Then...POLITOED APPEARS, here are the facts:
•It used perish song...
One turn: I killed that stupid poliwag I have been staring at for like 30 min
Two turns: I used great ball. FAIL
Three turns: I used ultra ball and say, “YEET!”. SUCCESS!
Tysm for this vid lol
Been at it for days no Castform Politoed or ice-cream cone for me ... But got Gabite easy ...
Well. I DON'T GET NOTHING GOOD
I chained a bagon until I got a shelgon! Took about an hour. ;3;
Also, I like Victini! :)
Why not a Salamance?
ruclips.net/video/x2_J_qpbfHU/видео.html
Kyrielle I did the same when I found out bagon had a 10% encounter rate at kalae bay insted of the 1% on route 3. I named the shelgon disappointmen, beacause I wantet a salamence
Btw dude your vids are awesome
You listed Goomy twice in the title.
He said Poliwrath two times in the desc
I GOT POLITOED ON FIRST ENCOUNTER!!!!!! YES!!!!
ThunderboltGaming congrats
same, now i have seen 3 and still trying to cath it
Pokémon sun and moon. The game that makes you wait for weather changes and forces you to make friends. Fantastic I know
On December 25th and 26th, send a great pokemon on wonder trade as an act of kindness to all the people who got pokemon Sun and Moon for Christmas! (SHARE IF THIS IS A GOOD IDEA!)
YES!
EVEN MORE YESSSS
omg first today found shiny riolu then a shiny meowth!
Spent nearly two hours yesterday, to get that freaking castform. And that wasn't the first time I was trying to get it. But finally it appeared.
Lol i got castform on my second sos battle in route 15, i though it wasn't rare
It took me 53 minutes to get Goomy to spawn. I don't think I care enough for the others.
How terrific for you!
I just went for Sliggoo on Exeggutor Island. You can breed it for a Goomy.
Bob Jeezorham wouldn't that make another sligoo
Flame44006 No. Sliggoo is the first evolved form of Goomy.
No, goomy is the first evolved form of sligoo and goodra
I did it! Took me 3 nights, and not being sure if Poliwhirl could call them, but finally!
I wasted one turn to false swipe him.
Then another one to take out his Poliwhirl partner.
And then I realised I didn't want to risk it, so I spent a Master Ball on Politoed.
No legendary was worth wasting this opportunity.
I've cried when i got a female politoed with drizzle ability 😭😭
Politoed will use parish song, so be careful
GoONx19xRTz timer ball
Yea I know but it's just for caution lol
Hey i love your videos they are great tips. Im a big fan of ghost-types so just surprise me lol
What i just caught a salamance when i first encountered bagon and that salamance is level 11 and i dont want it
We all know we're only here to have the 100% Pokedex
Does this still work like this for ultra sun and moon
Yes it Still works I found my politoed doing this metheod In pokemon Ultra Sun but it did take a while since it has a 1% encounter rate...
Guys I Help You Out
Thank Me Later
Gabite-2:59
Goomy-4:30

Trapinch-3:24
You're Welcome Peeps And Happy Hunting!
Thanks dude
I almost caught politoed but then it used perish song
That happened to me too! 😭
rip
And thats why you dont waste your Master Ball on legendaries or other easier catchable pokemon
Lucky I was able to use a roto catch and throw a Net Ball in the same turn perish song was going to kill it
I got 2 poliwags from the poke pelago that were like level 50
How to get 1 legend : go to ten ceret hill
Thanks for the tutorial ! I got goomy first try xD
July's mythical Pokemon
Ok its time to look for goomy
(234 fearow crys later)
hears goomy cry*
OMG
game crashes*
(crys)
This is what happened to me
You know I found goomy straight away, but I didn’t care because I just wanted money from the Pokédex quest, and then I released it, now I realize how rare it was😭
Literally two of my Level 60 Pokemon fainted while I was trying to get Gabite. And I had safety goggles, was fighting Trapinch, and was using a flying type!
i really want genesect your videos are helpful
You spelled Politoed wrong in the title
Thank you sirrr. Damn gamefreak spelling
+Austin John ima sub just keep the vids coming
also Goomy is twice in the title
I'll like mew
Austin john thanks for this video I really wanted a Gabite for my team.
P.s i really want genesect
My evie evovled to a espeon in the middle of video
Took me 5+ SOS tries (12+ hours which is always super fun when the developers decide to have it be under strict conditions, 1% encounter rate, and have it know PERISH SONG which according to the comments and experience, it will almost always use as its first move) so I've some advice to save someone's sanity that also does not use GTS:
- Moon users will not be able to take advantage of the natural rain because it's so poorly thought-out and is still considered day when it rains in Malie, so bring several Pokemon with Rain Dance/Drizzle and Leppa berries
- If you run into a Poliwrath, it's the wrong time and Politoed will not ever show during that battle
- Bring Pokes who can learn Taunt and use it as soon as it shows to avoid Perish Song
- Use leftovers to avoid constant healing and use Pokes that could make good use of the speed EVs
- Ghost and water Pokemon (Jellicent can learn Taunt/Rain Dance and may have Water Absorb ability, Decidueye can learn False Swipe + can OHKO with grass moves, Parasect w Dry Skin heals from water and can learn False Swipe + Spore to put it to sleep) will make it MUCH less annoying if battling Poliwhirl
- Electric types are also an option as they can't be paralyzed and are strong to water
- Do not use Pokes with Synchronize as if it's paralyzed, it will transfer to target, thus ending the call chain
- The time of day the battle starts is what determines if it'll appear so you can leave your DS if taking a break
- Timer balls are your best bet 99% of the time for SOS calls but dive or nest balls will be better if it shows early on. Ultras work too (esp early on) but for something this annoying and with limited PP, stock up on proper balls
I... need....... Keldeo.
Ha I got shiny keldo
Hey DO you have celibi I really need one friend
Devin Taste What to you trade for it?

I want genesect
Thanks for showing me where Pokemon are located.
I need a Genesect for this girl I have a crush on!
giving pokemon to females isn't the way to their heart bruh lol
Dom V I beg to differ
+Robert Faucher well good luck. most girls use guys to get pokemon they can't catch themselves. if the feels are unrequited then you're giving your pokemon out for nothing dude haha
Better hope she can wait for the pokebank update.
She only owns X so... I need a Genesect for my Omega Ruby.
Ah yes good old old school Austin
I got a Politoed after like 5 or 6 SOS calls and it casually decided to use Perish Song, see y'all in therapy
So helpful I'd love August
I have Moon, so I don't know about making it snow in Tapu Village, since I'll get Snowshrew instead.
I love this channel I stumbled upon it when I was researching about sun and moon before it came out and I have watched it ever since pls keep up the good work pls don't ever quit 😁 p.s. can I have arceus as my Birthday is in August it would mean the world
Garchomp is my fav poke The man my brothers and I love your vids 😂😂
Hey Austin, trying to catch Vanillish and was wondering,
What's the encounter rate of Vulpix on Mnt. Lanakila? the first patch of grass you see in the snow area.
Austin john, you are my favourite youtuber! I have watched your wonderlocke videos and it was CRAZY when you got a marshadow in a wonder trade! Im gonna try this method mostly to get castform because in pokemon omega ruby and alpha sapphire you can only get one castform as a gift. Also, in the give away, I really want a Mew. Thank Austin john!
*Guys, Politoed knows Perish Song, which means it will faint itself after 3 turns ones it has used it.*
