Did anyone else manage to get into the beta? (probably everyone)

I've been using it in my travels whenever I'm stopped for a time. Managed to get some 'mons but I'm not at all sure how to make them stronger or evolve them...do you have to capture multiple of a species?

[Furtuka]

Beta entrants have actually been pretty rare. Most of the slots were handed over to Ingress veterans.

From what I've read yeah you need to catch several of a species to evolve one.

[endlessblaze]

kinda odd, I haven't played it yet so maybe I will change my mind but I think I would prefer normal levelup evolution. its not like there wont be Pokémon to battle.

So here's a question for anyone who plays the main games:

Does anyone actually use PP Ups? For me they've always been valuables I hoard just-in-case but never use, but now I'm getting piles of them from the lottery in ORAS. So I feel like I ought to put them to work, but I have no idea where they'd be optimal to use. Low PP moves? High PP moves where you get more of a boost?

Part of my issue is I like having fluid movesets on my main team, so I'm constantly swapping out TM moves for contests, HMs, etc., which means boosting those moves would go to waste. And honestly, PP is basically a non-issue in-game thanks to Leppa berries, but I'd still like to get some use out of these... Any suggestions?

[Aklyon]

Yes, but only after i beat the elite four or right before then, because I usually don't keep changing my pokemons. I put together a team of neat-but-also-good-and-probably-new pokemon along with my fire starter and go battle doods. If I want to contests I go catch a new pokemon to do that with.

I would say that in a regular game, there's probably no reason to use PP up unless you wanted to optimize your play or were just tired of certain moves only having like... 10 uses or something when grinding. After all, allow me to trot out the tired but true argument, you could beat the entire game with a frigging Ratata if you wanted.

It's more for competitive and modded hardmode pokemon games. I don't remember if online battles automatically PP Max your moves but if it didn't, not having enough moves leaves you very open to being walled or stalled into oblivion or you might not have enough moves to wall or stall yourself. The same applies to the hardmode mods.

For example, 16 uses of Roost is so much better in a battle than just 10.

Encountered and captured Cresselia today. Didn't even know you could get her in ORAS. Apparently the location she appears is a random(but uniquely named) mirage spot.

[MagmaMcFry]

Ridiculous, I say.

[Ultimuh]

Ridiculous, I say.

Is.. is that one dual-wielding shields or does it just have oversized pauldrons?

[Akura]

I believe they're supposed to be two halves of a mask.

[Neonivek]

Ok... This generation is certainly going for a different aestetic then normal.

[some of] These pokemon don't even look like pokemon O-o

To admit, I guess they couldn't keep the aesthetic going forever.

[DeKaFu]

Oh my goodness.
These new Pokémon. They are all so good.

I absolutely adore the cubic bugbus and its electric kuwagata evo. Makes me think Grubbin will evolve into a kabutomushi.
Tiny cutefly is amazing. Too adorable.
My favourite is the floppy dragon guy, he's just perfect. I really want one. D:
The only one I'm meh towards is the hedgehog, but that's fine. My hypothetical team is getting crowded enough.

Out of curiosity, which ones do you think don't look like Pokémon?

Edit: Holy shit it's a bee fly, they didn't even change it from the real animal!

So perfect.

If you get one, you have to name it Falkor. That's what I'mma gonna do.
