Austin is the new updated version of those old Pokémon guidebooks. Thank God for the internet. A lot of gen Z and Alpha gamers won't ever have to know the struggle of trying to figure out how to complete a game with little to no help. Part of me will be jealous of that, but I'm mostly glad this fountain of information exists.

[@AustinJohnPlays]

There was the big leak of SwSh 2-3 weeks before the game with all the G-Max pokemon that I covered (not rumors, real leaks.) and that was from a Guide book that got out early. They're not making that same mistake again sadly. Sad not because of the leak stuff, but because I LOVE those books.

If it wasnt mentioned yet in the comments, to get the Dusk Lycanroc, as said in the video, you need a Rockruff with Own Tempo, after that level it to 25. Then the ingame time matters, when you open your map a little symbol on thr top appears, that will indicate the time, and once it hits dusk (orange symbol) that is when you need it to level up. The dusk period is around for about 2 or 3 minutes, thats why you might have had trouble evolving him.

Even though you can't get version exclusive pokemon without another person or buying the other game, I'm very grateful that gamefreak implemented a way to get every co-op/trade 'exclusive' pokemon into the game without the afformentioned requirements. It makes it so much easier to catch some often out of reach pokemon for us lone players.

Don't remember exactly where the rockruff is on the map I just remember that it's somewhere heading toward "vaultin veluza" gym leader dude it's off the beaten path tho so you gotta really look for it (Will update this post with the location when I find it again) Alright so the own tempo rockruff shows up to the right of cascarrafa by the crater wall, it always terastalizes into a psychic type and it'll already be lvl 25 when you find it, evolve it in the evening in game and boom you got your dusk form lycanrock

There is a terrastalized own tempo rockruff that’s static. It depends on the in game time. You can check your map and if the icon in the center top is orange resembling sunset that’s the time to level it up and evolve. Sunset only lasts a couple minutes so you have to be quick

[@Golladan]

The story beats with your rival, and the NPCs that you meet before/after the gym battle, are in a set order. Which is why what you described can happen.

[@reiniamajiki4179]

As for the Nemona battle, I think she battles you before a gym if you go for the badge "out of order" even though there is no order. She battled me before a gym to make sure I was ready for the leader, which was kinda nice because I beat her but felt a little under leveled. Went back out to train a few levels and did fine with the leader.

[@Golladan]

Nah it just depends on how many gym badges you have.

[@reiniamajiki4179]

@@Golladan that could be the case, but after playing some more I really do think it's about your level and the level of the gym. If you're under leveled, she battles you before. If you're over leveled, she battles you after. I did the bug gym and grass gyms first. Then I decided to do the water gym next and she fought me before I did that challenge. Go to fight the water guy and I would have been really under leveled if she hadn't battled me, giving me exp and giving me a hint to maybe grind some more. I was still a tad under leveled for the water guy but I was way better off than I would have been before realizing I needed to grind more. Then I did the normal gym, the electric gym, and the psychic gym, all of which I was either over leveled or on par. She fought me AFTER the psychic gym instead of before. I think this was because I was on par with the levels for that gym so there was no need to fight me before to give me an exp boost. I could be wrong but even her dialog before she fought me before the water gym was like "let me make sure you're ready for this gym". If I were to do the gyms again, I would have done bug, grass, electric, water, normal, then psychic. But I did the water 3rd instead of 4th so I essentially did it "out of order" and the game was trying to help me correct that in its own way by helping me level up BEFORE the gym and not after. So my theory is it's based on your teams levels compared to the gyms levels on whether she fights you before or after the gym.

[@Golladan]

@@reiniamajiki4179 It's not based on level. It's based on badges. She will always fight you before the 3rd gym regardless of which gym you do or which level. She will battle you after the 5th gym, which is when Geeta will be present and give you TMs for Tera Blast, though she will show up before the fight and say she needs to switch up her team. She will fight you before the 7th gym. I was overlevelled in all instances and she still fought me like that. Austin experienced the same thing here, where Nemona fought him before the normal gym when he did it as the third gym, and after the normal gym when he did it as the fifth gym.

So if you want it evolved FOCUS on just it for the moment

[@dj_barnsey9202]

Thank you, didn't know i had to level it up after the steps.

stand on top of a pokecenter/mart thing and it will run really fast in circles

@@JC_JN4 no, it only resets if it returns to its ball

Maushold is officially my favorite pokemon of all time,I didn't think itd be possible for a new pokemon to capture my heart like this. I sat laughing at the name "Maushold" for 10 minutes straight after evolving 🤣🤣🤣

[@ryninja5788]

Honestly it’s a bit disappointing that the linking cable doesn’t seem to have returned. Made all the trade evos so much better in my opinion. Hell I’d even take having to use it while the Pokémon holds the object like scyther and the metal coat.

[@raijuko]

The bisharp evolution is modeled after Shogi, a Japanese chess like game. That is why the evolution is sitting down, seemingly looking over a board or table. The crests, that's a thing in shogi. You can defeat high ranking pieces, to promote your own crests which represent soldiers and infantry, in a war. Figured not many Americans would catch onto that so, your welcome

[@eli2112]

The best thing about Tandemaus is that is has the ability Pick Up, so one day I was just checking to grab what they picked up and apparently it was 2 kids. They of course can't afford to pick up things for me now, instead they just keep a lot of berries in their mouth. PS. it was a perfect Pokemon for Parental Bond, it would have been amazing.

[@asherrochester830]

I’m sure somebody’s already mentioned this, but a good way to find a Rockruff with Own Tempo is to make a Pokémon with intimidate your party leader. Since intimidate immediately goes into effect when entering an encounter and Own Tempo counters Intimidate, if you encounter a Rockruff and Intimidate doesn’t activate, that Rockruff has the ability

[@SuperMetalyrics]

Thanks SO much, whenever I ask about anything people don't want to "spoil it" so I never find out anything. I wanna know this what I need to do, I don't care about spoilers!!!

[@Azull_33]

For some reason my Pawmo isn’t evolving at all. I’ve walked around the los platos over 3 times and yet nothing?

[@sjgames9104]

Note for the 1000 steps ones, all the steps have to be in one sitting. Returning the pokemon to its ball or entering a battle cancels this, so level up with candies Also a quick piece of advice since I know this method can be maddening, go to the battle area in the center of Mesagoza, with the type icon circle. Hold the left stick to the side for about 4 minutes and you’ll get all those steps easily

Someone surprise traded me a Scyther holding a metal coat, I was pretty surprised when it started evolving. I already had a Scyther + metal coat, I just needed to get someone to trade with, so I paid it forward and surprise traded mine away.

Rabsca also has revival blessing. Pawmot’s signature move is Doubleshock. Be mindful that Pawmot uses up all of its electricity and loses its electric typing as a result, similar to burn up on a fire type.

Does it become normal type?

Too anyone need to Evolutions Pokémon by number of steps, go back to the Academy courtyard and there is a compass artwork by the Gate. What you need to do is run around in one of two brown brick circles to make sure the Pokémon does not go back in the ball. For the slow Pokémon use the Innercircle, For the fast Pokémon use the outercircle!

[@davefurion382]

Also another comment, about the dusk form lycanroc, so tbh I didn't know anything about it's dusk form, I didn't know that was a thing until I watched this video here you made lol, I knew midday form and midnight form, so early in game I caught 2 rockruffs so I could evolve both forms, trained them up, one during the day and one during the night, at 25 I got midnight form, so I leveled the other one to 25 during the day, never evolved, I thought that was weird, I kept doing that til it was lvl 30 and still didn't evolve, day or night, and I couldn't figure out why lol, now I don't always pay attention to the abilities, so I thought it was a glitch, after watching your video, I checked my "glitched rockruff" and sure enough it had "own tempo" 🤣🤣 now on your map at the top there's an icon that shows a sun or moon if it's day in game or night, but if you watch the sky, when the sun starts to set, that icon on your map changes to a sunset before changing to a moon, as soon as that little sunset icon hit, I leveled him up and got dusk form, so yes it is sunset in game that you need to evolve "own tempo" rockruff, it's a very short window of time cuz it quickly switches from day to night, through dusk, it only takes maybe a min for it to change again to night time, so be ready with a rare candy or exp candy to make him level asap when that sunset hits

[@Letsfingoooooo]

I was evolving pokemon for my pokedex while watching this and my Dunsparce evolved into the three segment form Would not have known it was rare if I wasn't watching this

[@ignaciobarra6407]

Tandemaus also evolves when leveling by beating an opponent in combat. For me it didn't evolve in the back because I leveled it with xp candies.

Own tempo Rockruff works on in game dusk time. Easiest way to find one, run a pokemon with intimidate and fight all of them until one doesn't lose attack from it.

[@eflarsen]

own temp rockruff isn't hard to find, i found where they spawned and then just caught a bunch until i found one with own tempo. Only had to catch about fifteen of them before i found one. As for the Nemona battles, i think the rival story works independently of gym order and is just checking for how many gym badges you have. so you have the encounter after the second gym but before you do the third gym, and that will play out regardless of gym order.

[@AudioGAWD]

Just lead with a Pokémon that has Trace or Intimidate next time. You'll know what ability the Rockruff has immediately.
