r/PokemonBDSP

I just want to apologize.

I purchased BD in 2021 when the game came out, but got really busy and never got around to playing the game.

I’ve been playing Pokemon since Pokemon Red, and I own and beat all the mainline games.

Since I bought the game, I would lurk this reddit page for fun, always hoping one day I’d have time to play the game. I finally (five years later) had some time and decided to play through BD.

I have seen everyone on this page complain about Cynthia for five years now, and really thought everyone was just being dramatic.

After 3 hours of losing to her last night. I feel like I owe you an apology. You were right.

I think I need to do some more grinding, because I tried every strategy I could and didn’t even come close.

Sorry for judging you all so harshly.

Let’s go!!!

Came unpreparred, got it in under a 100 resets by dumb luck, panicked after it KO’ed my first mon after I had the audacity to try a premier ball and Masterball’ed it 😂

Looking for friends

Aye yoo! I just recently hopped back into the games after not playing for many years. Just looking for some people to trade and play the games with. Or even just chat on discord about the games honestly.

I used to breed shiny/competitive Pokémon on X/Y/ORAS. Had hundreds of hours in those games. I pretty much forgot all the details that go into that though, so I'm looking to get back into it and re-teaching myself.

Right now im hopping between Fire Red, Legends Arceus, Shield, and Starting Brilliant Diamond. I have Champions, but haven't really dove into it yet.

Also, if anyone knows any good discord groups to join that would also be helpful! Look forward to hopefully getting to know some new people! 😁

Driftloon Pokedex entry

Hi all,

Other than waiting until Friday is there any other way to get the driftloon entry in the Pokedex? (I've beaten Cynthia just waiting on this lil guy)

RNG for Mysterious Shard is Brutal

I just played for an hour last night and another hour this afternoon completing 90% of the digs I’ve done and only get 1x Small Mysterious Shard.

Im ready to give up getting the legendaries and selling the game , they really expect you to put in as many house as the base game just to get these mysterious shards ?

Cynthia was no Joke in this game!

Out of all the E4/Champions I’ve played , Cynthia takes the cake for hardest , I’ve yet to play a champion in another game that’s harder!

Riley when he sees my Garchomp coming out in the 3rd consecutive battle to EQ friend and foes

Somehow missed most of the Iron Island plotline on my playthrough and now my Garchomp is a literal terrorist one shotting his Lucario and whoever we're fighting

Finally....

After 3 tries, I have defeated the Elite Four and Cynthia!! I wanted something different for my team so I chose my pokemon that I've never really used.

Ground monotype run

I'm about to start a ground type run but i think Garchomp kinda overused and too strong. Any ideal to replace him?

I am cooked, I missed the event to gain the member card

I won't be able to get Darkrai in my BD copy

At least I got him in PLA, but I am so pissed I missed the original event
