Ask The Professor!

Hello all, It's been a while, hasn't it? Well, i'm back, and ready to answer any questions you might have. From unrested pokemon to legendary myths, I'm here with the answers to the things you might have pokemon related. I do have my work, so I might be slow, however i'm happy to answer anything once I get it. I hope everyone has a good day, and remember to love yourself, love the people around you, and love your pokemon. -Professor Redwood

The Shiny Wooper walked in the lab, her purple scarf and beanie whipping around in the wind. She shut the door with her tail, stopping the endless assault of breeze. Her black cloak covered her entire body, so no one knew she was a Shiny Pokemon, and she could pass for a short adult. She tucked her tail in out of sight. The Wooper had learned to talk the human language long ago, so she asked: "Can Wooper learn Earthquake?"

Hello there... Yes! Woopers can learn earthquake. At the peak of their evolutionary learning (Level 40 within most games), Woopers learn earthquake. Although, i'm not sure exactly why you'd need the info, but i'm happy to answer. As a bonus, Woopers are great for battle due to their typing, giving them great defenses, and can be a strong part of any team. Thank you for asking. and remember, love yourself, love the people around you, and love your pokemon. -Professor Redwood

A short hazel haired kid about 14 walks in oh hello Redwood! Umm do you know where to find heliolisk

Hello there! Now, Helolisk areas... Well, native to Kalos region, Heliolisk are often found in the hilly areas of Route 9, according to my contacts and other scientists in the region of Kalos. Hope you have a good time searching! Thank you for asking. and remember, love yourself, love the people around you, and love your pokemon. -Professor Redwood

A short, black cat walked in. She was bouncing all over the place and had eerie red eyes. She eagarly tackled a machine of some kind before asking: What are some of the most useless Pokemon in existence?

A trainer enters the lab and looks around, seems like there's other.. People? Being? No matter. She looks at the Professor in his eyes and said. You seem... Familiar.. Eh, whatever. I am here to ask you a question. Sync stones. Are those Pasio exclusive? And how does it really work? I'm looking forward to getting one myself but.. I'm not interested in visiting the region, Pasio, itself.

(note: sorry for the absence, haven't been on the sight too much) Hello! Useless pokemon, quite the contested topic. It really comes down to what you think is useless. Battle-wise, i'd put shuckle near the top. Coming in with some of the lowest speed and damages of almost any pokemon, shuckle often finds itself on fringe joke teams every once in a while. However, most pokemon have some use. For example, shuckle can possibly excel as a pokemon if played right. Trick room swaps the order in which speed goes, allowing shuckle to outspeed almost every pokemon we know of, and it's ability Contrary allows it to benefit from stat downs or stat downs on itself. In short, all pokemon have a use somehow, but i'd say shuckle is far down the list of great pokemon. Thank you for asking. and remember, love yourself, love the people around you, and love your pokemon. -Professor Redwood Nice to meet you, if we haven't met. Now, Sync stones... i'm not the most knowledgable on the Pasio region, but I do know some about the region, aside from my other contacts. Sync stones are special gems found around the many seabed areas of the Pasio region, and seem to be a region-exclusive phenomena, similar to the Dynamaxing phenomena of pokemon found in the Galar region. Sync stones seem to have a similar energy read to that of Key Stones or Z-Crystals, and can be used for multiple uses aside from just Sync moves, special moves between trainer and pokemon that coordinate both to allow a deadly attack in battles. It has been shown that trainers from specific regions can activate abilities native to their regions without the use of those specific crystals, such as Alolan trainers being able to use Z-moves whilst in the region of Pasio. Sync stones are quite the puzzling thing, eh? well, I hope that does sum what you've been asking up. I'm not as knowledgable with that region, as i've only visited a few of this world's great places, but I do hope that I gave the correct information. Thank you for asking. and remember, love yourself, love the people around you, and love your pokemon. -Professor Redwood *Staff edit: posts merged
