I concur that a more flexible window regarding cooldown is an option that would ease the transition to the new system. However, it was proposed by Eaty to introduce a fixed & global cooldown every week (Here) and I personally believe that this solution is the most suitable 1+ for the idea though

Hello, I was thinking about some other ways that players could spend their artifact points. One of my ideas that came to mind was excavation themed costumes/cosmetics. The first idea that I had along those lines was the HG/SS pokemaniac trainer costume. (https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:Spr_HGSS_Poké_Maniac.png) Other ideas could be: kabuto/omanyte hat, tyrantum/bastadon mounts. ~Dang

Boss Guide Main Strategy :- ⦁ Start With Klefki , Do Light Screen (for Spatkers) and Reflect (for Atkers) according to the opponent . Then Paralyze the Foe with Thunder Wave and after that set Spikes until Klefki dies or switch out if all spikes are set up and Klefki is still alive. ⦁ If attacker then after klefki go to Pidgeot , Lower its atk using Feather Dance thrice , then lower its accuracy by Sand Attack 6 times (Use Roost in Between if Pidgeot's life is half or lower) , then switch out . ⦁ If Special attacker then after klefki go to Electrode , Lower its Spatk using Eerie Impulse thrice , then lower its accuracy by Flash 6 times , then switch out . ⦁ After Pidgeot or Electrode , go to Furret and maximize its stats by using Coil (x6) , Agility (x3) and Amnesia (x3) , after that use Baton Pass and switch to Haxorus . ⦁ Now Sweep with Haxorus according to opponents type weaknesses , remember if all move are normal on a poke always use Dragon Claw because of its STAB , except on Steel and Fairy types. Here are Set Details of all 12 Pokemon :- [spoiler=MAIN BOSS TEAM] [spoiler=EXTRA POKEMON] Note - For Shedinja and Magcargo set details doesnt matter much , you can use any type of set just they should have the first 2 moves , other 2 moves also doent matter . For Breloom and Arbok set matters but moves doesnt , you only need Worry seed on Breloom and Glare , Haze on Arbok . Note - For Bosses Erika , George , Entei Guardian , Officer Jenny , Thor use Lum Berry on Garchomp Instead of Focus Sash . Exception Pokemons :- ⦁ Arbok - Bosses like Bruno , Raikou Guardian (See its Article to clear about Zekrom) , Shamac , Toothless , Link , Naruto Fanboy , Pofessor Rowan use Ground type pokemon as starters which cannot be Paralyzed by Thunder Wave . To Paralyze them you have to set up with Klefki first and then switch to Arbok and paralyze them using Glare and then go on to Pidgeot or Electrode . ⦁ Shedinja - Many bosses like Erika , Suicune Guardian , Lt. Surge , Professor Oak , Terminator , Urahara and Lorelei use pokemon as Starters which cannot do anything to Shedinja because of its ability Wonder Guard . So taking advantage of that just start with Shedinja and do Flash 6 times and then switch on to Klefki and follow the main steps . (Erika , Terminator , Lt. Surge and Urahara can also be defeated with Normal Strategy) ⦁ Breloom - Chuck - Machamp (No Guard) - Attack never misses Misty - Milotic (Competitive) - Spatk is raised if any stat is lowered The Pumpkin King - Bisharp (Defiant) - Atk is raised if stat is lowered James - Malamar (Contrary) - Every stat changes is reversed Steven - Metagross (Clear Body) - Stats cannot be lowered So for all the above bosses use Breloom having the move Worry Seed . Start with Breloom and just do Worry Seed and let him die , and then go on with the main strategy . (You can use any poke with Worry Seed but i prefer breloom because everyone use it as an false swiper ) ⦁ Pikachu - Lance (Dragons Shrine) , Pewdie , Koichi and Nikola bosses use their Starter with life orb which gets killed due to recoil before u can set up and Tigerous uses Salamence with Lum berry which could also be a problem . So start with Pikachu holding Choice Scarf and use Knock Off to remove their Life Orb (Use Nuzzle for Tigerous Boss) and then go on with the main straegy . Note - Pikachu needs at least 12 spd ivs to outspeed nikola's Mewtwo while holding choice scarf . Some Bosses Which Need Different Strategies :- ⦁ Bugsy - For Bugsy , Start With Impish Garchomp and set up Stealth Rock and then use Dragon Tail on Scyther because Scyther uses Brick Break which Breaks Reflect , that could be a problem for Pidgeot to lower its atk cause it also knows Swords Dance . ⦁ Shary and Shaui - This is One of the Hardest Boss in Game , so to defeat this you have to bring Shedinja , Garchomp , Electrode , Furret , Klefki and Haxorus (No PIdgeot) . For Shary , start with Garchomp and use Earthquake on Flareaon (Life Orb) and kill her . Now comes Mienshao , he will use High Jump Kick on Garchomp , switch to Shedinja and Mienshao will get hurt because of crash damage . Then he will use Stone Edge so switch to Garchomp again . Then repeat this process until Mienshao dies , then comes Meleotta . Let shedinja die and then go to klefki and follow the main strategy using electrode. For Shaui , Start With Klefki , set up light screen , paralyze Shaymin , then go to electrode and lower its Spatk and Accuracy and then switch to Garchomp and set Stealth Rock cause Azelf have Focus Sash and we have to break it . Then just setup with Furret and Baton Pass to Haxorus and sweep . Note - Shaui have 2 pokes with focus sash , Azelf and Alakazam , azelf's sash will get broken by stealth rock but alakazam's wont because of its ability Magic Guard. So Remember to put Focus Sash on Haxorus Before Battling Shaui , so that he can survive a critical hit from HP Ice . ⦁ Raikou Guardian - Start with Shedinja and Kill it's Zekrom (Life Orb) and then let Shedinja die , set up with Klefki and then switch out to Arbok because its second Pokemon is Excadrill (Ground Type) , paralyze him and then continue the main strategy using Pidgeot . Team :- Shedinja , Arbok , Klefki , Pidgeot , Furret , Haxorus (No ELectrode) . ⦁ Xylos - Xylos starts with Victini which OHKO's Klefki and Electrode and Pidgeot too , if reflect is not up . So , for that u have to start with Klefki , use Reflect and then go to Pidgeot and use Feather Dance and then Roost twice and then Feather Dance , use Roost time to time whenever pidgeot's life is half or less . After lowering its stats , switch to electrode paralyze her and then Set up with Furret . ⦁ Saphirr - Start with Magcargo and use Memento and then go to klefki use Light Screen and then Reflect and set up spikes if he still survives . Now just follow main strategy using Pidgeot . If you are using absiel rope then you can use Arbok in 6th slot to paralyze Groudon after klefki . Note - You need a Fire Type pokemon in team and a pokemon with Rock Climb or an Abseil Rope to reach Saphirr . So team will be Magcargo , Klefki , Pidgeot , Furret , Haxorus and Rock Climb Pokemon / Arbok (If using Abseil Rope). ⦁ Professor Birch - Birch uses Medicham which gets Killed From High Jump Kick's Crash Damage before Furret can set up and it knows Fire Punch too so we cant kill him using Shedinja . So use Pikachu holding Focus Sash this time . Start with Pikachu , use Protect he will use High Jump KIck and will get Damaged then Attack him using Quick Attack or Knock Off , Pikachu will survive bcoz of sash , now again use Protect and Medicham will die bcoz of Crash Damage . Now go to Klefki and Follow the main Strategy . Team :- Pikcahu (Focus Sash) , Klefki , Pidgeot , Electrode , Furret , Haxorus ⦁ Ash Westbrook - (There is a glitch with Ash Westbroook for now , Knock Off Doesnt Remove Arceus's Life Orb . Hope it gets fixed soon , for now there is a different strategy) Ash starts with Dialga which Knows Roar , and will eventually use it when u set up with furret , so use Chansey . Start with her and Kill Dialga with Seismic Toss and also set up Stealth Rock with Chansey , then comes Reshiram which has Life Orb and also Knows Roar . So Kill Reshiram Too Using Toxic and Seismic Toss . (Dont forget to do Softboiled to recover chansey's HP) . Then Comes Arceus , do the same with arceus too and if chansey dies just go Garchomp and Kill Arceus . Now , let Garchomp die in front of Infernape . Infernape knows Fire Blast and sometimes kills Klefki even if u set up Light screen , So U have to paralyze Infernape . Then go to Pidgeot and use Reflect first , now follow the main strategy . Team :- Garchomp , Chansey , Klefki , Pidgeot , Furret , Haxorus ⦁ Thor - For Thor , you just ave to put Garchomp in 6th Place because it's easy to set up and sweep with haxorus but his last pokemon is Lugia which could survive a Dragon Claw from Adamant Haxorus depending on your Atk IV's and lugia will survive a Jolly Haxorus's Dragon Claw Definitely and will kill Haxorus in a Critic from Aeroblast . So Before setting up with Furret you have to Set Stealth Rock using Garchomp . (Sometimes Klefki is not able to set Spikes becuase of which Mamoswine survives due to its focus sash and damages Haxorus and then lugia kills it in an aeroblast without a crit becuase u will take damage from Zapdos's Rocky Helmet too . So it is mandatory to set Rocks up and also Use Lum Berry on Haxorus instead of Focus Sash to cure the paralysis from Zapdos's Static Ability) After Limit is put on Bosses many people asked me to make a list of top 20 bosses to do . So i compared rewrads of every bosses and came up with this list . Hope U like it . :- [spoiler=TOP 20 BOSSES] The 20 Most Viable Bosses for Older and Newer Players :- 0. Battle Bot - If you have active membership (Not for newer players) (All Dual Bosses give higher money than single bosses) 1. Shary & Shaui - High Tier Pokemon Rewards (Need 120 Gen 1 caught dex and 38 evolved ex to access the area) 2. Medussa & Eldir - Alolan Grimer and Alolan Vulpix + Mini MS 3. Pewdie & Diepy - High Tier Pokemon 4. Thor - Tier 9 Pokemon 5. Tigerous - Gives Eumi Tokens which give good rewards 6. Urahara - Tier 9 Pokemon + PvP items 7. Brock - Fossil Pokemon + Nugget and Big Nugget 8. Morty - Gives Rotom (The best pokemon to sell) 9. Professor Oak - Gives Starters 10. Professor Elm - Gives Starters 11. Professor Birch - Gives Starters 12. Professor Rowan - Gives Starters 13. Spectify - Gives Nugget and Big Pearl + Good Pokemon 14. Lt. Surge - Gives Rotom 15. Terminator - Gives Rotom , Alolan Grimer + Good items 16. Entei Guardian - Chance to give Choice Band (Not for newer players) 17. Raikou Guardian - Chance to give Choice Scarf (Not for newer players) 18. Suicune Guardian - Chance to give Choice Specs (Not for newer players) 19. Erika - Gives Larvesta , Ferrothorn 20. Logan - Gives 2x Life Orb + Logan Mask + Good Pokemon Others 4 Bosses for Newer Players (If not able to fight Shary and Shaui) :- 21. Chuck - Gives Timburr , Mienfoo 22. Naruto Fanboy - Gives Big Pearl + Sash + Rare Candy 23. Link - Good Pokemon + Good Items 24. Misty - Pearl + Good Pokemon ⦁ Some Frequently Asked Questions :- Q. Can we use different pokemon instead of These who learns the same moves ? A. You can but i recommend to use these pokemon only . Why ? Because Firstly i used Pokemon Like Pidgeot , Electrode , Furret , Pikachu and Arbok which are easier to find for New Players . Secondly Using These Pokemon Satisfy the Type Requirements of many Bosses like Klefki for Steven , Electrode for Lt. Surge , Haxorus for Lance , Shedinja for Morty . Q. I use Staraptor , Ampharos , Gorebyss and Conkeldurr in Place of Your pokes , is it OK ? A. Gorebyss is Good , Staraptor is even better than Pidgeot because of Intimidate but i'd say using electrode is better then Ampharos because Electrode can outspeed many pokemon Only with +nature and helps in Paralyzing pokes which Klefki is not able to , like Entei Guardian's Entei . Ampharos have a very low Spd which can pose a Problem if Entei Crits Klefki and then Him too . (Anything Can Happen , Its RNG , so its good to play safe) I highly recommend Don't Use any Attacker other Than Haxorus becuase Haxorus have the Second Highest attacking Stat and he have a high Speed and He learns great Variety of Moves to Counter Different Types . Most Importantly , He has the Ability Mold Breaker which Ingores the ability of Oppssing Pokemons which is very Useful to OHKO Dragonite (Multiscale) , Lugia (Multiscale) , Sturdy Pokemons like Donphan and Unaware Clefable and Quagsire which are the greatest threat because Unaware ability ingores the Stat changes . Q. Do i need Epics IV'S on all pokes ? A. No u dont need epic IV'S , Just 20+ in their required stats . Like 20+def and HP for Pidgeot and 20+ Spdef and HP for Electrode , etc. Feel Free to ask any question in comments below .

I have gotten used to the new system of bosses (I can say I prefer it over the old way) but my only small complaint is that the 6 days and 19 hours timer is slightly too long. For instance, if I do all 20 bosses Wednesday from 7 pm to 10 pm, I cannot then do 20 bosses next Wednesday morning or will often be interrupted while doing the boss run, and I am forced to wait a few hours before I can do the rest of the bosses. Which can be problematic if I am busy later in the day or so forth. This also kills the rhythm of bossing, which is where I believe most of the enjoyment comes from while grinding. A nice quality of life change would be to change the 20 boss limit timer from the current (6 days and 19-hours) to 6 days and 12-hour timer. This allows people who like to do bosses on the same day weekly (but not always the same time during that day) to have more flexibility and smoothness of doing bosses. This will also (hopefully) not be too short of a timer for people to abuse the boss system. I also believe I have a good amount of experince with the new boss system now to make this post. Thanks for your time. -Debeast

IV/EV/nature guide Basics of pokemon stats Guide to pokemon stats Everything you need to know regarding pokemon stats Welcome young trainers to Professor Travok's lesson on pokemon stats. Gather round now, take your seats and get that pen and paper ready as we dive in. There are multiple IV/EV/Nature guides on this forum but a lot of them read like books and look like one big wall of text, this can be daunting for some members especially those that do not speak English as their native language. I have made this guide to make it easier on people to understand what base stats, IVs, EVs, and natures are. In this guide I will break down each part down into individual section to make it easier for people to find specific bits. The sections I will use are: IVs What they are How IVs affects a pokemons stats [*]EVs What they are How to train a pokemons EVs How EVs affects a pokemons stats [*]Nature What are they The different natures How nature affects a pokemons stats How to get a specific nature on a pokemon [*]Base stat [*]How to calculate a pokemons stat Formulas used to calculate stats Calculating a pokemons stats IVs What they are How IVs affect a pokemons stats EVs What they are How to train a pokemons EVs How they affect a pokemons stats Nature What are they The different natures How to get a specific nature on a pokemon Base stats How to calculate a pokemons stats Formulas used to calculate stats Calculating a pokemon stats
