Not yet, but a listing for the patch has been on the Nintendo servers since the 13th. The S/M 1.1 listing appeared on December 22nd and launched January 10th, so use that to get a good idea of when it'll be out.
61 MB (compared to the original's 29) and is a redownload, like Pokedex 3D Pro compared to the original.
Cynthia is hard but at least there's no bs with her. Fucking Sina is much worse cause her quick claw has 80% activation rate.
I am glad I use Golisopod so I don't give a shit.
Meanwhile Colress has a klinklang that will eat a pokemon guaranteed if it gets a boosted giga impact, and runs mega meta for mind crushing amounts of damage.

I'm downloading an update. What's this about?
EDIT: So just some bug fixes. Man I need that Pokebank Update

I somehow was able to beat Colress with an Alola-Ninetails and a Mimikyu on my team.
I still have no idea how.
I am convinced that the rare candy respawn in Melemele sea has been removed
RIP a reasonable source of daily leveling
Where exacly?, I think ive not downloaded the patch on my japanese version of the game, I could test it on both that and the palversion thats updated

Its on the sandbar connected to ten carat hill. You get to it by surfing from the beach near the tourist district. I haven't updated so I can't confirm if it was taken away. It is real finicky, some days it's there and some days it isn't.
Colress is the only special battle tree trainer I hate to encounter. Megagross with eviolite porygon2 tracing salamence's intimidate is a pain.
I don't think there's a set timeout, but they usually aren't that long. Still sucks though, what a weird thing to implement.
I'm on an original 3DS and the game is just fine bar some fps drops in double battles. Totally worth it!
It's on the little island out from hau'oli beach.
The little rare candy spot? Got mine this morning so I doubt they patched it. Just the respawn rng being stingy.
what spot is this?
Go to Hau'oli beach and surf to the small beach to the right of it in the melemele sea.

Feel free to PM me with whatever you're offering.
I'll take a Cutiefly, a Grimer, and an Eevee. Either ability for them is fine - a male is preferred if you've got it. I have the other two you are offering, but since we're trading these others, I can just give you the other two of mine you wanted. When would you like to trade?
I can help if you are still looking.
I am! are you still around?

Demoli I can help if you're still in need in a little bit.
What's the consensus on Slowking? I'm running a Slowbro right now and the only difference is Slowking has more special defense, which is generally what his electric weakness could use.
I've also been thinking about running the two of them together on a team. Just kinda gauge what team your opponent is using and use the more viable one to set up trick room or calm mind.

If you're on at all tonight, I'll be up pretty late. Otherwise, tomorrow around 6 or 7 ET works for me.

So I just learned that Spirit Shackle only works as long as Decidueye remains on the field.
That is actually awful. This move went from being one of my favorites to causing me to basically just drop Decidueye. =/

Doesn't Baton Pass help keep that in effect?

I just looked it up. Apparently, that is not the case since Gen V.
Whats the min stat for a shiny? Got a shiny slowpoke in a 20 chain, but due to the predetermined EV spread, its hard to figure out its exact values. Does it have like all IV stats at least 20 or whats the exact rule there?

Isn't that the case with any area lock move? Even moves like Mean Look and Spider Web break when the user is gone.
Theres 2 strats, SOS chaining and masuda methood. If you want competetive shinies, masuda is always better cause you can min max abilities, natures and IVs.
Getting a decent shiny through chaining requires: Synchronize lead (50% chance of passing nature) and chaining over thresholds for more 31 IVs. After 30 chains iirc your pokemon will have 4 perfect IVs, so unless you were going for a zero speed special attacker, you'll allways ideally want to bottlecap it.
Honestly, the riskiest thing from sosing is the nature not passing. Apart from hidden abilities, it's the only thing that can not be fixed.
Unlike Gen 2 there's no more fixed stats for shinies. It can be anything.

So I got a dye stall in my Plaza a couple of days ago and found out that if I want to dye using berries, it generally cost 30 of the super effective reducing berries. I mean I have all of them, however 30 is a high number for an item that takes initially 48 hours before its able to be harvested. Thank goodness you can speed up the precess to 24 hours (Pelago is fantastic!). Finally got the berries I needed to dye stuff dark purple just to realize it will additionally cost 10 FC (no big deal) and I can only dye1 item... 90 berries that can take a while to harvest for 1 dyed item? What the hell were they thinking!?
Sorry wanted to vent.

It's pretty much the incentive to keep growing all of the berries.

In hindsight, it's not that bad of an idea. Considering dyes and/or changing the players clothing is completely optional, it's not a necessity. Not to mention since berries can be grown with no maintenance whatsoever and basically off-screen, there's no additional effert needed.
I truly thought that with all 90 berries I could dye as many items as I wanted, so I got a little salty when I found out that's not how it works.

What's the big deal with bottle caps? Maybe I haven't made it far enough into the game, but I got a gold bottle cap and a regular bottle cap from Poke Pelago and it seems valuable.
At level 100, bottlecaps can be used to turn your pokemo's ivs to their maximum value, 31. Goldens max all stats.
Take note that this is superficial, for breeding and hidden power purposes the ivs retain their initial value.
Got my plaza up to Lv 100+. Guest requests + soft reset is definitely the way to go here. With a 2x fortune buff, I was getting around 300 FC per run of requests. My current plaza looks like:
Fortune Teller 5*
Fortune Teller 3*
Fortune Teller 3*
Fortune Teller 3*
Rare Kitchen 5*
Rare Kitchen 5*
Treasure Hunt 5* (free space used for bottlecap 'purchasing')
I guess I should be on the look out now for 5* Fortune Teller and Dye House VIPs.

Can I meet up with you in-game to get a couple of 5* Treasure Hunts, please? I've been on the lookout for those forever, but no one ever seems to offer those up.
I have three 5* Fortune Tellers (Hoenn, Unova, and Kalos) you can purchase from me, too.
Also, if anyone has a 5* Team Green, please PM me.
