Getting all ribbons on a mon is definitely going to become impossible soon because dexcut keeps whittling the number down
The Once-in-a-Lifetime Ribbon would kill it completely if it wasn't bugged
>Once-in-a-Lifetime Ribbon
Most people just ignore that ribbon. I don't even know what gamefreak was thinking adding that ribbon before adding one for raids.
I highly doubt that. They're still adding marks and ribbons to the game. Things like Pursuit and Hidden power actually affect the game, when ribbons do not.
Golduck is probably the safest bet to never get dex cut out of the remaining options for a complete ribbon master, considering psyduck is Masuda's favorite.
I can't say anything about anyone else, but I just fricking hate having things in Pokemon games.
We got rid of so many things, ribbons and shinies better be next.
So no disharties on my part.
I'm hoping for Gen 5 ribbons, since we never got them originally. Gen 5 is my favorite gen and being able to get a ribbon on my favorite mon will complete my journey.
Miltank isn't in SV afaik so she's boned there. But frankly just having a shiny is fulfilling. I've got her in Gen 3 still while I work up a better team for Battle Tower.
Honestly the Battle Tree is simple provided you're doing Singles. Tedious, but simple. >Truant Durant from XY with Entrainment >Mega Salamence >Volcarona with Fiery Dance boosted Inferno Overdrive
Just Protect every turn Truant isn't active and when it's time to fight Red, replace one of the other Pokemon with your Ribbon Master.
I miss the battle tree rental teams. There was a
Truant Durant / baton pass scolipede / Mega kangaskhan combo that was unbeatable. I went at least 110 streak with that combo till the Trainers started hitting their one-hit KO moves each time. My streak ended because Fissure landed three times lmao.
I ran it in doubles with Mega Lucario + Naganadel leads to spam Sludge Wave and Lucario's general power, with Ash-Gren and Zapdos in the back, then Blue's simple enough to take on with whatever one of the four dropped
Loathing it, the partner and item finder marks are gonna be hell for so many Pokemon; I plan to ribbon master every Pokemon I own, as far back as I can get them. Bank-sama, please.. just a little longer..
Itemfinder isn't too bad, partner is pure pain. At least you're not in my shoes, I started collecting ribbons in Gen7 and I missed the chance to get The Legend Ribbon on my Main mon, even though I still have the game.
I mean, that's what happened to my Delphox. She is one of the very very few Pokemon that I preserved (mainly because I still had her) Thankfully I had the ability to PKHeX before looking for her to hack on all the ribbons since it was between abandoning an old friend and starting over with a new Delphox. Hate that I had to, but frick it. GameFreak's stupid, anyway
I was going to pkhex the ribbons on my mon, but it didn't feel right tbh. It would be nice if there was a way to play the older titles and transfer our mons in there.
>but it didn't feel right
Yea, I feel that. It feels gross, but it's better than abandoning them for a new one, but that's probably just a me thing since I'm picky about every Pokemon having every ribbon possible for title purposes and also just completionist's sake. It's an easier pill to swallow when you look at it from the perspective of "I'd have done it if I could have."
>It would be nice if there was a way to play the older titles and transfer our mons in there.
We almost had that with BDSP, but they decided the contest and battle memory ribbons should stay legacy ribbons. Which is fair albeit obnoxious, but then you remember they brought back the Sinnoh champ ribbon instead of making a new Sinnoh champ ribbon, therefore tossing out the "exclusivity!!" argument out the window.
>Yea, I feel that. It feels gross, but it's better than abandoning them for a new one, but that's probably just a me thing since I'm picky about every Pokemon having every ribbon possible for title purposes and also just completionist's sake.
I feel you anon, don't pay too much mind to what I said. I feel like being ompletionist is a blessing and a curse. The only reason I didn't redo my RM is because I have alot of memories with this one and I've had it for many years. I can't imagine doing that for just one ribbon. What I will do, is transfer one of my old mons with the ribbon just so I can something from back then with me.
>How are we feeling about S/V?
I like the idea of marks as being the random equivelent to ribbons (you'll notice that the one think seperating marks and ribbons is that marks are only earned ~1% of the time when doing something instead of guaranteed), but it definitely makes it tricky/tedious if you're doing multiple ribbon masters.
Itemfinder is kind of a chore but at least Kitakami and Area Zero have items all over the place, Partner Mark is also annoying but you can literally idle it and Gourmand is just button mashing but the off-by-one bug at least means it's ~3x more common than the others.
>ruined his ribbon master evolve into the shitty regional form that’s gonna get dexcut from most future game unlike its base form which is guaranteed to come back in all future remakes up to gen 7
fricking moron
S/V actually ruined a ton of Ribbon mons, I have no idea why some people decided to evolve their mons without waiting for at least next remakes/Legends If BW gets a ribbons, it's going to be a massive cuckening. I'm betting to they will since it's the only gen that didn't have it and ILCA added a new ribbon in BDSP.
>being punished for evolving your Pokemon because GameFreak didn't want to be like Digimon
I fricked up my RM Colosseum H-Typhlosion by evolving it too, didn't truly realize the possibility of ILCA giving the ribbonless region a new ribbon until afterwards.. copium'ing that Unova stays ribbonless but in my heart of hearts, I know better
Maybe the so-called PKHeX feature that was rumored to be in the Indigo Disk will let us devolve even though it would be infinitely easier to just not shit on the respective Pokemon whose evolved forms are Dexcut? 🙁
I'm sorry anon. Honestly this wouldn't be an issue if they just added the new mons in the remakes, but when they didn't add sylveon in BDSP I just fricking knew it was over. That's a impressive RM too, but at least you can still collect ribbons in future games. BW/BW2 will most likely have ribbons, there's no chance they don't. You can always pkhex, but the brightside is that Gen5 remakes marks the final pokemon game before the "gimmick era" so you don't need to worry about missing ribbons for those since you already have those.
>but when they didn't add sylveon in BDSP I just fricking knew it was over.
Yeah, I've been paranoid about keeping everything unevolved if I can help it for that very reason, especially my XD: GoD Eevee since she's going to be my Sylveon RM. So ridiculous that I have to do this only to risk getting fricked in the future. It would genuinely be best case scenario if they just let us devolve, since it lets them continue rampaging with reckless abandon without completely fricking over an entire community of Pokemon players.
Seriously, why the frick is Scizor and Weavile in LA but not Unovan Samurott and Johto Typhlosion? Shit's so dumb it drives me nuts
>You can always pkhex
Sadly, I don't have the means to do that. Even if I did though, I'm not entirely sure if it's possible to edit an existing Pokemon without some kind of suspicion due to the way Home works with trackers n shit. Maybe I'm totally off base with that, but ultimately doesn't matter without a hacked Switch anyway. Nevermind the obvious that it shouldn't be necessary in the first place..

It's funny you mention Digimon actually since the gimmicks have been getting more absurd. I wouldn't be surprise if we get Fusions down the line. Honestly with the way things have been pokemon and the Dexcut, I feel like it's just not possible anymore to have a mon with every ribbon, not to mention these cross-evos. Thinking now, I would probably have 2 RM, one for my main and one that would never get cut like Psyduck , Eevee or Gyarados. Funny thing about Eevee too, that raid going on now gives the unrivaled Mark, which kinda sucks for people who have Eevee as a RM. I still can't believe they haven't added a Ribbon for Raids yet, A ribbon that has a chance to appear on your mon would be cool.
But I understand you, about Pkhex thing. It's not easy making a RM, no one knows which mons will get cut or not anymore.
I have some pokemon I want to hunt in older games in the right pokeball and get them Ribbons but I don't think I could do a complete ribbon master with every single ribbon and shit. It's too much
Ribbon Master means you collect every ribbon available for that Pokemon that originated from that game. You can have a Dondozo as a RM for example, so you're fine. Very few pokemon are actually going to have every single ribbon, considering ribbons go back to the Gamecube.
>Ribbon Chads
autism
Autism fuels every aspect of Pokémon.
Is there an updated list? The DLC should make that list bigger.
Based that my Hera bro can be a ribbon master. I should RNG manip for a shiny and get to work.
Updated version for DLC1. DLC2 will add Magmar, Electabuzz, and Rhydon to this list
Heracross is extremely easy to RNG manipulate in colo so it's a popular choice
Isn't it cool that soon this brand of autism will die with Pokemon Bank?
I hope they delete ribbons.
Also shinies, we need less of that autism too.
>NOOOOOOOO STOP LIKING THINGS I DON'T LIKE!!! REEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
See what I mean kek
They're imitating you, shame you couldn't tell
They already took everything I care about from the games, so why shouldn't they do the same for the only people more autistic than me?
I mean what’s the point if they’re going to cut the dex
Not having Ribombee as Ribbon master, lel.
anything after gen 4 betrays the spirit of the challenge, since the DP battle tower is like 90% of the work
I can’t wait for them to introduce a ribbon that only new mons can get solely to watch you lot seethe
There already are.
None of these losers will even realize there's ribbons in Gen 5 for being the world champ.

Home removed transfer-only moves, soon it'll remove transfer-only ribbons.
I highly doubt that. They're still adding marks and ribbons to the game. Things like Pursuit and Hidden power actually affect the game, when ribbons do not.
Golduck is probably the safest bet to never get dex cut out of the remaining options for a complete ribbon master, considering psyduck is Masuda's favorite.
Doing a Jolteon and stuck in Battle Maison trying to get 50 wins., but I can make it to the 30 at most.
Where did all this hate come from for ribbon collectors come from? Did I miss something?
Probably discordtrannies and/or shartyBlack folk
ah, of course.
I was about to say.
I can't say anything about anyone else, but I just fricking hate having things in Pokemon games.
We got rid of so many things, ribbons and shinies better be next.
So no disharties on my part.
My Qwilfish and Mew have everything. And unless we get a new Legends game after SV's second DLC, I think I'm done.
I'm hoping for Gen 5 ribbons, since we never got them originally. Gen 5 is my favorite gen and being able to get a ribbon on my favorite mon will complete my journey.
I wouldn't count on it. If ILCA's behind the remakes again, we're not getting anything, apart from maybe a Musical ribbon.
Does anyone have a complete list of which pokémon can get the curry mark with the curry duplication glitch?
Miltank isn't in SV afaik so she's boned there. But frankly just having a shiny is fulfilling. I've got her in Gen 3 still while I work up a better team for Battle Tower.
I've been tempted to Ribbon master Whitney's Miltank but I also don't want to go through the Battle Tree again.
