Topic: Pokemon Generation VI: X/Y & Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire

[Dr. Wily II]

Once I'm done with OR... I want to trade that Japanese Ralts over from my X...
And breed for a Shiny. Again.

[Quickman]

Trading... Hoo boy, trading...

I can trade without another 3DS, right?  Just Bank everything?

[Dr. Wily II]

Yep, since Bank is linked to your NNID, not the game.

[Sapphire Knight]

Yep. Pokebank: Making trading with yourself easy.

[Amatiramisu]

So what's the general consensus on OR/AS from you guys so far? I decided to just stick with X this gen since I'm really not all that impressed with what I've seen from the remakes.

[Dr. Wily II]

Well... Once you get the DexNav, it can get rather addictive as the more of the Pokemon species you encounter, the higher the chance that the Pokemon could have rare Egg moves, Hidden Abilities, or even have max IVs in one to three stats.

Besides that, it's just pure nostalgia for me. It's good to be back in Hoenn.

[Quickman]

I can't wait to get my copy...

...and not be able to look at Flannery the same again.

[Dr. Wily II]

Flannery, and NPC!May are so adorkable.

[Quickman]

Can't look at May the same way, either.

I wonder what nickname I should give my character.  I'm going to call him Sue.  What nickname can I get from Sue?

[Dr. Wily II]

Mary.

[Sakura Leic]

There are no nicknames in this game.

[Dr. Wily II]

Doesn't mean we can't give him one!

[Quickman]

He will be a boy named Sue, nicknamed Mary.

Seems legit.

[Sakura Leic]

I can't decide what Water Type I want, it's always the hardest type to decide for me sometimes.

[Quickman]

Okay, what crutch Pokemon will I encounter?  I want to start planning ahead with what I'll end up focusing most of my training on.

[Dr. Wily II]

Poochyena... Zigzagoon... Wingull... Surskit...

Really depends on your definition of crutch.

[Sakura Leic]

I might actually give Sharpedo a go.  So I just need to decide the last Pokemon to get for my team.

[Quickman]

Poochyena will be my crutch.  I like to train on the wild side.  Surskit will be my other crutch.  Geico the Treecko will end up being a support Pokemon, much like how Flamin' Yawn became once I got other mons to train.

[Dr. Wily II]

I'm going with Treecko, Torchic, Mudkip, and Ralts. Initially wanted to use the Shiny Beldum... But thinking that Aron would give me the feels. The last spot should be Taillow. Unless Pidgey appears.

When you do get the game, make sure you get the tutorial DexNav Poochyena. It'll have Thunder Fang. So practise on sneaking, and save before you leave Littleroot, after you return to Littleroot from defeating May.

[Quickman]

I hope it's not that Shiny nightmare.  If it's Shiny, I want to be able to catch it! D:

In the meantime... time to go pick up another of Sleeper's eggs.  He had better make me a Shiny.

[Dr. Wily II]

Perhaps he's just... Sleeping on the job.
YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[Reaperoid]

When you do get the game, make sure you get the tutorial DexNav Poochyena. It'll have Thunder Fang.

It'll have either of the fangs. I got Fire Fang on mine.

[Dr. Wily II]

Well, she said she's grabbing Treecko... So...

It seems to be based on your Starter.
Treecko - Thunder Fang
Torchic - Ice Fang
Mudkip - Fire Fang

[Quickman]

Picked up eight eggs from Sleeper.  Need four more and I'll start hatching those.  Then I'll get more.  He had better not be firing blanks!

[Sakura Leic]

HOLY. [parasitic bomb].
