Greetings everyone.
The reason I make this thread is all about the gems, as you already know, getting tokens is not an easy task (or at least to me) so, when you are finally able to trade some of your tokens for “good” stuff, you realise the options you have are pretty limited and restricted. Why do I say this? Well, because it seems pretty outdated and unfair of how some gems work compared to other that works in the elemental weather.
Example:
The Fiery Gem works in sunny weather, all we need to make it function is either a Heat Rock (and Nine Cloud working) or the move Sunny Day. At this point everything is fine, but… What when it comes about gems such as:
[spoilerWhite Gem:3syj6qul]
[/details]
In this case, how do I get the cloudy weather to work? It isn’t easy to find a dungeon with this natural weather, and in case to find one, it would be boring, stressing, repetitive and tarry to stick to it just to have the cloudy weather enabled.
There isn’t a “Cloudy Rock” either, so I can’t purposely make it work using a cloud nine poke.
Another con is that there isn’t a Cloudy TM/Cloudy move I could use to activate it…
All of this problems just to make a White Gem work!!!
Not to mention is not the only gem that works in Cloudy weather.
[spoilerThunder Gem:3syj6qul]
[/details]
[spoilerPoison Gem:3syj6qul]
[/details]
And guess what? another weather that is a real struggle to deal with:
[spoilerPsyche Gem:3syj6qul]
[/details]
[spoilerShadow Gem:3syj6qul]
[/details]
[spoilerDark Gem:3syj6qul]
[/details]
So, in my humble opinion, the easiest and quickest solution to all of this problems is to make the gems work in the default weather, Clear weather.
Thank you for reading this post and if you think you have another solution, feel free to talk about it here.
