I have a "few" Street Passes, and two Shinies (despite NEVER seeing, let alone catching, a non-Red-Gyarados shiny in any previous Pokemon game ever). Definitely need more Street Passes, but not for Pokemon. My unfinished Puzzle Swap panels drive me nuts, and missing Comic Con this year seriously hurt my chances at getting pink pieces.
Well, thankfully I tracked down a Serebii player with an Onix safari. 'course, that particular catch was on hold until I finished training a new Talonflame. Also, while I actively try not to nickname legendaries, naming my new Talonflame Tobias meant that I simply HAD to nickname my Xernias Ax.
Speaking of Serebii, another buddy from there challenged me to battle today. Dragonite ALONE wiped him out, 3-nothing. The sacrificial lambs placed before her were Ninjask, Ferroseed (Eviolite, I can only assume) and Haxorus.
...still need to clear Rotation Battles at the Battle Maison. I don't exactly look forward to that. Doubles are awesome, Triples are fine, but I don't "get" Rotation battles. Your target is effectively random at all times.
