Is Mawhile that good? I just caught two of them during my current visit at the Glittering Cavern, both male and female.

Perhaps I should make team with them in it?

It might, I never tried it.  You could also just runaway from them.

Repel doesn't work for rocks.

Guess I'll just continue to run away from them, but anyway to lower the encounter rate with rocks?

[Quickman]

I've yet to catch one.  Time to go to Glittering Cave!

Mawile is a pretty terrible Pokemon if you don't Mega Evolve it and even then there are a lot of better choices for a Mega slot, I wouldn't really recommend it.

I got two of them! Male is Vicegrip and Female is Airyluv. Which one you want?

Alright I see.

[Ruri]

At the end of the day you should just use whatever 'mons you like best, regardless of how good they may or may not be.

You'll probably enjoy it more!

[VirusChris]

Charizard will ALWAYS have a spot on my team. ^_^

I'll see what I can put together, but Charizard and Blastoise I'm going to add together.

And Quickman still want that Mawhile? I'l trade you one for a Ralts or Solrock.

[Sakura Leic]

I just want to try new mons and see what works for me.

[VirusChris]

Dome Fossil, Helix Fossil, Dome Fossil, Helix Fossil... for goodness' sake! Enough already! I've gotten 6 of each of them now, all I want is to find one Old Amber is that too much to ask?

Aside from Old Amber, I need to find Root, Sail, and Claw Fossils. Can you get a Sail Fossil if to choose the Jaw Fossil? Is it possible to get both new Fossil Pokemon from this Generation in the same game?

The hunt goes on...

I only have one Ralts, currently, and no Solrocks.  I'll go catch a Mawhile, as I'm primarily backtracking to catch stuff anyway.

[N-Mario]

Yea I originally was going to teach Fly to Charizard, but I already used Cut, and Strength on it. So there's like only room for 2 fire moves, and I just used one of them for another move it just learned from leveling up.

But I figure whenever I find it, or someone gives it to me or whatever I try and see if Pidgeot can learn it. Also, are you forced to teach a surfing move to a pokemon after getting Lucario? Otherwise I don't see any other way to proceed. I taught it to Greninja anyway, sicne its the only water one I want, with Charizard being fire type.

Also, is it natural for a Pikachu to have the lowest HP stats of all my other party?  I keep giving it the HP training bags in S.Training to level it up, but it's still like 80, 85 something HP at level 39 or something like that. All my other parties have over 100 HP.

OK then, I needed to catch a Ralts and Solrock.

Darn those Claw and Root Fossils and Old Amber, I can't find them but my Dome and Helix Fossils are stockpiling now.

[Dr. Wily II]

X: Old Amber, Root Fossil, Claw Fossil, Armor Fossil, Skull Fossil, Plume Fossil, Cover Fossil

Y: Old Amber, Dome Fossil, Helix Fossil, Armor Fossil, Skull Fossil, Plume Fossil, Cover Fossil

You want the Sail/Jaw Fossil? Pick one in X, the other in Y

[Ruri]

Oh my God people

Mawile. Mawile. MAWILE.

There is no h in it's goddamned name

[VirusChris]

X: Old Amber, Root Fossil, Claw Fossil, Armor Fossil, Skull Fossil, Plume Fossil, Cover Fossil

Y: Old Amber, Dome Fossil, Helix Fossil, Armor Fossil, Skull Fossil, Plume Fossil, Cover Fossil

You want the Sail/Jaw Fossil? Pick one in X, the other in Y

Oh, that explains it but I still haven't found ONE Old Amber yet! I'm going to add this information in my guide book as it LACKS this intel.

Well I guess you can only get one Jaw or Sail Fossil per game so Sail Fossil in X when I get to this point.

Oh my God people

Mawile. Mawile. MAWILE.

There is no h in it's goddamned name

OH sorry, I remember the Pokemon anime episode "Once in a Mawile" and it's based on the saying "Once in a While" so my mind wrapped around that and started calling Mawile, Mawhile which is not the case.

[Quickman]

I blame VC for screwing up the spelling.

You get a free Lapras at one point.  Also, catch a Luvdisc and trade it to some hiker in a Pokemon Center for a Steelix.

Also, is it natural for a Pikachu to have the lowest HP stats of all my other party?  I keep giving it the HP training bags in S.Training to level it up, but it's still like 80, 85 something HP at level 39 or something like that. All my other parties have over 100 HP.

No idea.  I stopped using my Pikachu ages ago and he became a breeding slave.

And since it's on my clipboard, here's my current look.



Ready for winter, and the coat should dissuade Runaway from groping me so much.

[VirusChris]

I take FULL responsibility for the misnaming for Mawile.

And how are you people uploading these screenshots from the game?


And finally found an Old Amber after breaking so many rocks and encountered Pokemon after Pokemon looking for it. Now searching for a Solrock, but quick question... are Solrocks exclusive to X version and Lunastone exclusive to Y version or can both of them be found in the same version?

EDIT: Nevermind, ran into a Solrock.

[Quickman]

I aimed the iPad camera at the DS screen, snapped a pic, cropped and uploaded it.

[Dr. Wily II]

But the coat will make you... SWEAT.

As foe the Steelix, the guy is in the Pokemon Center for the second gym. Luvdiscs are easy to catch with the Old Rod, in the same city too.

HMs...
Dehplox knows Cut.
Fly to Talonflame.
Surf, and eventually Waterfall to Greninja.
Rock Smash and Strength on Cresnaught.
Doublade has False Swipe.
Gardevoir... Is Gardevoir.

No exclusives for the sun and moon.

No other way to taking in-game screenshots? I wish for the function of taking pictures while playing games on the 3DS. Well I guess I could try with my old Phone. Or use my other 3DS to snap the shot.

[N-Mario]

Yea I got the laparas too around the same time. But it doesn't have surf to begin with. So you teach it anyway, even though that Laparas already has 4 moves. Still screwed. Well whatever what's done is done.


Besides holding the game up to your camera and uploading the picture, the other way to get better screen shot is the illegal way to get a capture device installed on your 3DS. But that will void your warranty.

Or you could contact Nintendo and ask how they do it. But that's not likely.  It's probably that they use their Dev kits and everything is what I'm thinking.

No wonder Runaway's enjoyment level is so high currently.  He's enjoying my scent.  My scent of SWEAT.

TIME TO STRIP

And as for my HMs:

Fly to Charizard
Strength to Steelix
Rock Smash to Lucario
Strength, Waterfall, and Surf to Lapras
Cut and False Swipe to Farfetch'd

Others use a capture.  I'm low-tech.

Surf is a pretty decent move, so I saw no problem with teaching it to Anne Bonney.

[Dr. Wily II]

Indeed, Surf has always been a good HM move. Waterfall is in a sense the physical version of Surf, and is pretty good too.

That sentence sounds SO wrong to me!

You named your Lapras after the famous female pirate?

[Quickman]

Yes I did.  Seemed fitting, as I would ride her across the seven seas.

...That sounded wrong.

Even more wrong than the last sentence from you!
