ROLLERSKATES CONFIRMED
Chespin (grass) = porcupine
Looks like one I might actually be interested in playing. Although those names... X & Y? >_>
actually i think chespin might be chestnuts, considering that fennekin is a fennec fox and froakie is a frog, and the france aesthetic like that eiffel-tower-lookin' thing.
Quote from: Mirby on January 08, 2013, 12:58:52 PM

Yes, chestnut is part of it. English name is chestnut + pin, Japanese name is hari(needle) + maron(french for chestnut).
I'll just wait for the Pokemon Z version to come out in a year or two I think. Maybe then I'll also have the 3DS needed to play it.
..naaaaaahh.
So they are skipping the Ruby/Sapphire remakes? I am somewhat disappointed.

Looks great. Full 3D, and everything.
Worldwide release is also a fantastic idea. Slowly Pokemon morphs into full-blown MMO.
Heh, and I was expecting Grey Version.
As if I didn't have enough Pokemon games to finish. XD
Hrm... kinda like the fire and water types. Although I won't say for certain until their full evolutions are released. Although this means I'd have to get a 3DS down the road.
I'll refrain judgement on the starters until we see their evolutions, but right now they're just ok to me, nowhere close to my favorites. The Y legendary looks [tornado fang]ing weird in that it feels like it's completely flat when seen from below, am I the only one that feels that way? Also, the X legend is totally the musketeer trio/quartet's daddy or something like that.

C'mon Nintendo, I didn't get a chance to play of the previous generation games; things are going too fast for me... ;O;

Agreed, young one. It doesn't look like it will be fighting though, judging by the first form. My guess is that it'll either be just plain fire or fire ground.
Yeah I'm just traumatized from using Emboar, easily the worst starter I've ever had. :|
Yeaaah I wasn't a huge fan of Emboar myself. Blaziken is still the most bad-ass Fire/Fighting Pokemon. Infernape comes in second.

I most definitely agree, especially since I have a Shiny Blaziken. 0v0
This would be a bit screwed up but I wonder if we might see a Fire/Water or Fire/Ice type Pokemon this generation. :P
It'd be awesome if it was a Fire/Psychic or Fire/Grass
I'm really hoping for either Fire/Psychic or Fire/Dark personally.
Quote from: Pyro on January 08, 2013, 08:25:57 PM
Fire/Water or Fire/Ice

I wonder what will be #666.

Didn't Gen V have Victini, a Fire/Psychic event-only legendary pokémon? But a Fire/Grass type sounds cool.
There is also Houndoom, the Dark/Fire type from Gen II.
I like this theory. Since we can see the starters do a second attack that looks like it's Dark,Psychic, and Fighting respectively, what if the final evolutions end up being Grass/Dark, Fire/Psychic, and Water/Fighting?

That'd be pretty awesome actually!
Yeah, mostly because that'd make a second rock-paper-scissors thing going on in the opposite direction.
Hmm... I'd probably expect there to be more Eevee evolutions. If there is, I'd probably be expecting between steel or dragon type.

Quote from: Karai on January 08, 2013, 09:07:01 PM

I've long wondered this myself.
#650-658 will be the starters (provided we don't have another Victini), so #666 will be an early one, possibly this gen's Pidgey or Caterpie/Weedle.
Personally I hope it's a demon that evolves into an angel.

Everyone said the same about Tepig.
I'm going to throw it out there and say that it will be a Fire/Ghost type even if I'll be dead wrong.

Sorry, could resist making that crack.
Some new info:
Quote from: http://gematsu.com/2013/01/pokemon-x-and-y-to-boost-franchise-to-over-700-pokemon
- In addition to existing Pokemon, there will be a large number of completely new Pokemon. The additions will bring the total number of Pokemon in the franchise from the current 649 to over 700.
- Because of Pokemon X and Y, the Pokemon anime, movies, card game, and merchandise will "break into a new dimension."
- People around the world will be able to simultaneously experience "Real Play." (I'm assuming this is referring to the game's global October release.)
- The game will utilize the 3DS to its maximum abilities to leverage its overwhelmingly beautiful presentation.
- The game uses an innovative communication system that makes it feel as if you are playing with other players around the world.
- The bonds between players and Pokemon will deepen, and Pokemon will become stronger with the new battle structure.
- Everyone will enjoy the game's scenario and music.
Ooh this sounds very interesting, I can't wait. 8)
QuoteEveryone will enjoy the game's scenario and music.
This sounds like somebody's opinion.
And the "break into a new dimension" thing makes me think "Hey, we're going to have 3D [parasitic bomb] in the Anime now."
Quote from: Kawaii on January 09, 2013, 07:18:54 AM

YAAAY! 8D
Quote from: Ruri on January 09, 2013, 07:20:33 AM

That remains to be seen.
But I didn't really like the music in Black except for a few choice bits (All of them battle music, oh and Route 1 I guess.).
It has to be GSC levels of good to impress me.
I love Black and White's music. Route 10, Accumula Town, and Opelucid City are among my favorite tracks in all of the Pokemon Games.
It might just be that I still haven't beaten the game.
Because I think I'm only on the 4th gym, and I just burned out on the game at that point.
I would love to get back into it, honestly.
Yeah I can understand that, I pretty much played White in one go but didn't really do the extra stuff like I should have because I had a crappy team.
One word.
Ghetsis.
That is all.
Quote from: Sakura Leic on January 09, 2013, 07:32:30 AM
Accumula Town
with the piano and drum beat
without it's still fantastic, but throw those two in and ohmygod
I remember why I stopped playing Black now.
Its because of the damn 3DS making it look [tornado fang]ing ugly.
I'm playing it in my DSi to abuse some stuff and it looks so CRISP.
God [tornado fang] that [parasitic bomb], I just want some damn event pokemon and in order to get anything I have to jump through some [tornado fang]ing hoops and buy extra [parasitic bomb] just to transfer my save to the PC so I can get the pokemon.
All because I lost that [tornado fang]ing Action Replay wire with the special hookup at the end.

Not settled with making more and more ridiculous Legendary Pokemon designs, Nintendo opted to now make names that give me a brain hemorrhage every time I try to pronounce them.

No really they are.

I wonder if it will be nearly 800. I wants a blue jay or a platypus-inspired Pokemon (and Psyduck/Golduck does not count.)
QuoteThe bonds between players and Pokemon will deepen, and Pokemon will become stronger with the new battle structure.
I wonder if that means an overhaul of the IV system like what happened with Gen III and will that mean no transfers from Gen IV/V?
Quote from: Pyro on January 09, 2013, 11:03:14 PMI wonder if that means an overhaul of the IV system like what happened with Gen III and will that mean no transfers from Gen IV/V?
I somehow don't see that happening.
On another note, it annoys me when I talk to people who INSIST they were able to trade from gen2 to 3. like, they swear they did it. it's.... GRAAAGH idiots!!
I was genuinely pissed when I couldn't transfer them over, consider I poured my heart and soul into Silver.
I would be too, but to hear people say they did when that is a technological impossibility no matter what you do... ugh.

It's like, really? And you expect me to believe you? >0<
And this is multiple people, that's just sad. :\
With the pokemon's names..
Zurr-hurr-durr anyone? 8D
God these names. I hope they can be just as silly as they were in Gen V. New parody material!

Eso no se hispanico para nada :P
The game looks interesting, but I hope this isn't just a graphic upgrade, I didn't enjoyed B&W much to be honest...
It felt like this generation came really fast, but I'm told that they're right on time.
As usual, the internet is being [tornado fang]ing stupid about Pokemon designs just because the Pokemon don't look like Pokemon that they were expecting, but I'm willing to bet that any Pokemon they'd design would be shitty.
The Pokemon are just fine, okay?
I still say that Trubbish and the Vanilite line are adorable.
Quote from: Sakura Leic on January 10, 2013, 01:51:56 AMI still say that Trubbish and the Vanilite line are adorable.
They are. Really, I don't see what's wrong with them. It certainly can't be an issue of style because they (all gens) all look in harmony with each other.
Okay, it's one thing to say "I don't like how that Pokemon looks" but that's not what most of these people are saying.
Yeah I know, I never understand why people keep complaining about that.
They have nostalgia glasses super-glued to their faces.

Sounds more like celtic or nordic to me. Mostly because with that name Yveltal somewhat reminds of another mythological bird.

-Dratini. F*@#! YES!!!

You CAN adapt old data for use in a new system, such as Gen 1 'mans being transferred to Gen 2 where the Special stat has split.
I REALLY hope this does mean that the EV system has been overhauled. I'm sick and tired of every game since Crystal penalizing me for using my favorites to PLAY THE DAMN GAME before I start grinding with them.
Either way, though, it'll be nice to know that hacked creatures won't be common as dirt anymore. For now, anyway...

I don't think they're supposed to be Veins.
What would you call them then?
Just Markings, honestly.
Those are just marking. If anything, you should be more creepied out by Timburr and its evolutionary line, those look like they have veins ready to explode.
Definitely getting the Y version, because the Legendary is kickbutt to me! And the Fire Fox is going to be my starter and have Fennekin be female and I shall name her Tamamo!
By the way, I'm surprised no one has commented on the "DNA" symbols on the Japanese logos of Pokemon Y and X seeing as the letters Y and X refer to the chromosomes in our DNA to determine our gender. Hmm, I wonder if that means something in this game?
As interesting as that is, I find the idea that it's inspired by Norse mythology (http://www.kimikogaming.net/pokemon-x-and-y-yggdrasil-myth-points-towards-pokemon-z-and-a-legendary-dragon/) more intriguing...
Awesome news, considering I am of part Viking (Norwegian) ancestry.

Fire bunny yay! :)
A fire snake would be awesome as well!
Which would be kinda weird since we already had a grass snake, though I still say that they are skinks since Serperior does in fact have arms.
A fire tiger would be awesome...
Hm, and would Rapidash he the horse?
Sorry but I prefer my tigers to be more

Holy [parasitic bomb] that looks adorable, I wonder what type it is.
NEW EEVEE! YAAAAAAAAAAAAY! 0v0
Another member to join Strike Force EON!!! [eyebrow]
And it kinda looks like a Normal type.
It'd be kinda weird for it to be normal, but I can't tell otherwise. Maybe Fighting?
That is one happy looking Fighting type. 8D
Perhaps it's a new type of Pokemon for which we know not of. Like a Love Type.
Well Dark Types are Evil Types in Japan.
Umbreon is not evil. Just misunderstood as it diabolically stares into your delicious looking soul! 8D
B(
Of course I don't think Dark Types are Evil, Umbreon is too adorable, Absol is a awesome Pokemon that is horribly misunderstood, and Weaviles are just plain awesome.
Perhaps it's a Dragon type?
I would say it doesn't even look Dragony but we have freaking Altaria.
Exactly my point. Dragons can look like anything.
Quote from: Protoman Blues on February 12, 2013, 05:31:26 AM
Perhaps it's a Dragon type?
Its color scheme DOES remind me of Milotic.
Honestly, I feel the best candidates right now are either Normal, Dragon, and Bug (it also gives me a butterfly impression with its ribbons and nymphs are a type of insecs too).
Hmmmm, yeah it could be a Bug type. Buzzeon?
Could be a out of nowhere Flying type, the bows remind me of kites. Though it's totally not likely. -u-'

Nimbeon...
For some reason it looks female exclusive to me too.
Even though Eevee is more likely to be male even with the female looking Espeon and Glaceon. 8D

Do you think there's going to be a new Pokemon type? Light Type? Could be the perfect balance to Dark Type.
And to me... that is SO VixyNyan's personal Eevee! ^_^
It compliments her well! That Eevee was made for her!
So it's called Ninfia... And going with naming conventions for Leafia (Leafeon) and Glacia (Glaceon)...
IT SHALL BE NAMED NINFEONTM!!
And I say it's the next pure Flying type after Sky Plate-Arceus and Tornadus.

Psychic types are already Light Types.
Ninfeon. Chances are it's going to be translated to Nimfeon. Could be ghost type, but then again that's just a dumb theory.
Anyway, time for me to start giving birth to a new pink tail. Hoping to see another official Eeveelution, so that I can have my 9-tails (hoping its steel so that I can create my mecha-gozilla-ripoff-like form).

Psychics are consider Light types? :/
Does the Japanese version state them as such?
I doubt the new Eeveelution is 'normal' type since that's what Eevee already is, it'd make no sense to me. I do love the colors it has, though I still hope for a ground-type or ghost-type.

I need to finish training Strike Force EON
Which Eevee do you leave out of Strike Force EON?
Depends on my mood, really. Although I usually never take out Mental, Jolt, and Shadow.
I'm guessing Mental is Espeon?
Yep!
What are the names of your other Eevees?
Blaze, Flood, Shock, Mental, Blackout, Thorn, Frostbite
Wait hold up then who's Jolt and Shadow?

Nah.
But maybe Kyuubeon would be. 8D
Yeah I haven't watched Madoka.
Well, it's official.
Ninfia's English name is...
Sylveon. Spanish, Italian, French and German names (http://www.pokemon.com/pokemonxy/en-us) have been revealed too.
It's Type is still unknown... Until CoroCoro reveals more next month.
Have a video to see it in action:

;w; want~ :cookie:
... That's quick. *swipes plushie*
Cute name 8)
Yay Sylveon and jeez plushies come fast.
Sylveon, if I was stupid, it be Normal and Flying. Sounds sort of like "sylph". A pity I can't afford indulgence in plushies, I really wish I had one.
Sylveon? Cute name... and dang, they got a plushie out already?! :O
That's fast!
So this Eevee could be a Normal/Flying-Type Pokemon? I still want to say this Eevee form is a Ghost-Type but until Nintendo comes out with it, we're taking a shot in the dark.
I'm still waiting on my Steel Eevee.
Steeleon?
Either that or Chromeon or Plateon.
Zinceon
I ran out of stuff to be honest.
Titaneon, Metaleon, Mecheon. Uhh... gotta think of a better name.
Quartzeon

Well, uh, Jirachi grants wishes?
There are some they believe Sylveon might be a Bug-Type due to Sylveon's bug-like eyes (even though some of the other Eevee forms have the same kind of eyes) and the butterfly ribbons... though Sylveon's English name stems from the word "Sylvan" meaning a being that resides in the forest or spirits of the word or maybe "Sylph" which means elemental/fairies/spirits of the air.
So it's possible it's either a Flying or Bug-Type.
This one is a real head scratcher.

Yes I agree with this I nickname all my Pokemon I catch.
I might start with Fire. I haven't started with the Fire-type since Charmander. >.> But Froakie is adorable too, so I agree with Wily II, I'm gonna wait and see what the evolutions are.
My gut says fire but I'll wait til I see the evos in case They were stupid enough to have another fire/fighting type.
I wanna go with the grass one but knowing my luck the first gym will be fire or ice. XD
Or flying, poison or bug types.
Going by previous trends...
Gen 1 was Rock, Gen 2 was Flying, Gen 3 was Rock, Gen 4 was Rock, Gen 5A was Grass/Fire/Water, Gen 5B was Normal...
I bet it's Rock again. 8D
Yeah latly no starter had a distinct disadvantage since most of the fire type starters gets the fighting sub type on the second evolution or in the case of 5A a elemental monkey.
I bet the first gym is Steel! 8D
My money's on Dragon. 8D
I'm not sure whether to be surprised or not that no one is talking about the next movie. I know there is little to no info about it except teaser trailer and a promotional poster, but I would have figured there would have been at least some speculation. :\
Not that anyone probably cares any more, since it seems like no one is really following the anime/movie series any more, except for the kids.
I mean, is this supposed to be about another Mewtwo involved? Or is this the same one from the Kanto region? And why the title "Reawakening of Mewtwo"? Does that mean it apparently 'died' somewhere? I can't recall it ever happening. So many questions, since it's my favorite character.

I generally just forget the anime exists until it reaches the league or something particularly stupid happens like Ash losing a gym match three times in a row or [spoiler]losing to a trainer who just got his first Pokemon literally 5 seconds prior.[/spoiler]

I'm pretty much the same way, the anime is simply terrible.
Though rewatching the first movie in Japanese wasn't too bad actually. No shitty pop music.
So how many leagues has Ash lost? All of them?
What a shitty Pokemon master. Too bad he's stuck being around since everybody could use a breath of fresh air.
The only thing he's won is the Orange League and the Battle Frontier.
I also love Brother my Brother from the first movie.
The Orange League doesn't really count as a league despite the name, it was more of a glorified gym battle that gave out a trophy instead of a badge.
Yeah but it was an arch tournament regardless.
I'm just saying that if Ash had to battle more than one guy he wouldn't have won.
Oh most certainly.
Plus, that Dragonite waaaaaas kinda cheap!
Quote from: Sakura Leic on February 15, 2013, 11:04:50 PM
I also love Brother my Brother from the first movie.
But the music in place of it in the Japanese version is actual fight music, and works so well.
Its loud, and definitely captures the real pokemon getting the [parasitic bomb] beaten out of them by Clone pokemon.
But okay, you have your opinion and I have mine.
I feel it captures the emotion of the situation of the English version, from Pikachu's perspective. He doesn't want to fight his clone because he knows that it wouldn't accomplish anything other than beating the crap out of each other.
Can't say much for the anime. I dropped it at Gen 4.
But jeez. A new Pokemon generation already? I guess it's finally time to give in and download the Gen 5 games. Here I was hoping to hold out until I could get ahold of legitimate copies so I could play with my friends who love rubbing their copies of B&W2 in my face.
How is B&W2? Is it worth it?
I really like it, my team is awesome.
How soon can you transfer from another game to it? If I get it, I wanna use it to raise some older Mon, like a couple Strike Force EON members.
I wouldn't know since I don't really do that unfortunately.

From Black and White its just normal old trading, so as you soon as you unlock trading which is the first or second town.
Yeah since they did that in Heart Gold and Soul Silver I've always been severely confused about it.

So that includes if I wanna trade from Diamond or SoulSilver?
You have to reach the Poke Transfer Lab.
I think its in the same place it was in in Black/White. So you have to beat the game before you can, since that's when you get the National Dex.
What if I transfer from SoulSilver/Diamond to my original Black & White, and then transfer from Black and White to Black and White 2? Could I avoid beating the game then?
Like I said Black/White to Black 2/White 2 is just ordinary trading, so if the Gen 4 Pokemon are on BW then yes.
Yes.
Only reason you can't do the Diamond/SoulSilver directly to Black 2 is because of the Generational gap. Transferring from BW to BW2 will work though.
Edit: Ninja'd.
Of course if you really wanted to you could transfer them from Gen 3 to Gen 4, then from Gen 4 to Gen 5.
Can't wait until Gen 6 allows people to transfer from Gen 5, making the GBA games still the most feasible way of obtaining Hoenn pokemon.
But you have to wait until you beat the first gym before you can trade though.
Sexcellent. You've been most helpful. Thank you both.
First gym can be a [sonic slicer] if you don't grind the hell out of whatever pokemon you catch at the start.
They decided to make it the Normal Gym. So what you really want to do is get a Fighting type. Thankfully there are Riolu in the wild shortly after you start the game.
Second gym is too hard for me at the moment, I have to grind some more because my Beldum is [tornado fang]ing terrible.
Riolu doesn't really help unless you want to grind until level 15 or so, that's when he learns his first really Fighting move.
That's what I did.
That level 13 Lillipup is a piece of [parasitic bomb].
It is, but I toughed it out with 4 Pokemon.
A fighting type, huh? I think I have one I've been meaning to train. Heh, probably a Riolu actually!
Seriously a fighting type is a must in this gen.
I'll be sure to bring one along then!
Yeah they will seriously own Ghetsis's Hydregion. I took it out in one shot with my Mienshao in White.
Well Frostbite should be able to take care of Hydregion!
Yeah Frosbite should do nicely for that purpose as well.
I also need to raise a new dragon as well.
Besides that Haxorus?
Use Druddigon because no one else does.
That might be the one I need to raise. Or Hydregion. Or both.
Well I haven't gotten to the point in White 2 where I can get those, plus I have my end game team anyway.

Actually, I have plenty of time! XD
I'd recommend a dark type if you're playing Gen5 games since 2 of the 4 E4 members are weak to it.
My Tyranitar OHKO'd each of their Pokemon in both B1 and B2.
I have more trouble with Marshal to be honest.
Marshal is annoying because of his Sturdy Sawk.
... Darn his Sturdy Sawk. >_>
Not only that, but in my White play through I didn't have anything super effective on his Pokemon either. I didn't like Unfezant and used her as a slave.
D:
Unfezant is cool since it can Air Slash and hopefully flinch...
Despite it's SP ATT being average. >_>
I've used Unfezant in 3 of the Gen5 games, s/he's ok. XD
It was just too average for me, it didn't do much for me. I felt the same about Zebstrika and Simisage was a sacrificial Pokemon because I'm an idiot. But Carracosta, Mienshao, and Zoroark made up for that, and my Emboar was decent when I needed to burn things.
Zebstrika is awesome!
On another note...
I felt Alder was a more fun Champion than Iris. >.>
But Iris's battle theme was like fun itself morphed into a music track.
True... Still... VOLCARONA
B&W did have a great battle trainer theme.

I still love the time my Pidgeot took out a foe that was 32 levels higher than it.
I miss the good ol' days of Pokemon Stadium 2, when my Snorlax from Silver was pretty much invincible due to fighting type....well sucking, really.

Such naive young foolishness. This is not the proper way to eat an Oreo.
Yes, you should twist it first. However, licking comes much later. First you get your two halves in order. The non-cream side gets dunked in milk first before you put it in your mouth and sensually play with it. Your tongue absorbing the milk and the ever softening cookie before biting it softly. Then comes the cream side. After it's slowly dunking, then it gets licked a lot, slowly of course. After it's licking, you bite half of it and eat it passionately. Finally, you re-dunk the other half and repeat the process until at last it's alllllll gone.
But I can't eat Oreon. :'(
I was talking about an Oreo. Oreon should have his tummy rubbed! 8D

That's what I've been wanting to do.
What type is Oreon anyway?
Dark/Normal?
Works for me! 8)
By the way, after one beats Black, is it good or worthwhile to find those seven sages peeps?
You get TM for it, but I think most of them are buffs, I didn't find them all cause I got bored.
They each give you a TM, and some backstory on Team Plasma.
Besides that, and after getting them all, Looker thanks you, and tells you where N might be.
Dem TMs (http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Seven_Sages#Items_given)
I suppose I'll go look for them.
Anyone wanna tell me where they are? 8D
There's a guide on serebii.net.
Or you can just look at the link I posted. 8D

Somehow this was the first thing that came to mind at Oreon being a dark type.

Maybe that's Oreon's natural defense against predators.

Sylveon is cute enough already, but now it's uber cute and adorable.
I'm still wondering what type it might be.
then again, doesn't Pokemon make up types as necessary? it could end up Ribbon/Normal
EEEEEEEEEEEEEE! *o*

Then don't talk as if you know what you're talking about when you really don't and its actually about something you don't even care about? Just a suggestion.
Not that I don't care, I just haven't bothered. I "like" Pokemon, I just never really got THAt caught up in the games. Besides pinball, which was a present. That said, that was a damn fun pinball game.
Also, I wasnt talking as if I knew, just that last I remembered there were suddenly steel types, and I didn't realize when those came about. I just remember them sort of appearing suddenly.
Though a quick wiki shows gen 2. Felt like much shorter. Has it really been that long? Jeeez.
Dude Ruby and Sapphire just turned 10 years old.
Wow, 10 years old? Now I feel old. :x
Do you think Sylveon could be a Poison-Type? The more I look at it, it's possible it uses it cuteness to lure in unsuspecting foes in and poison it.
Though I think it might be a Flying-Type as well... Flying, Bug, Ghost, and Poison-Type seem the most likely to me at this point.

Yeah... I'm definitely leaning to a flying type.

That is beyond adorable...
A pure flying type perhaps?
Well it's Japanese name is Ninfia, could we gleam anything from that maybe? IMo sounds almost like "nymph" which is a kind of nature spirit, but I dont know... I dont see it as a grass type.
Either way we won't know the type until next month.
I'm interrupting just to say good lord that is beyond adorable.
So, if you lived in the Pokemon World, which region would you be from?
Probably Hoenn, Zigzagoons are adorable kleptomaniacs. owo
I'd like to say Johto, but my region would most likely be Unova, due to it's clear NYC style!
I'd still start with my beloved Cyndaquil though! owo
I like my Torchic.
I'd say Hoenn, but I'd be travelling everywhere. Mudkip is great to have as a starter. Water/Ground ftw. Although I'd want to get a dawn stone to evolve my Kirlia to a Gallade.
Dream team:
Swampert
Gallade
Charizard
Scizor
Serperior
Raichu
X3 Also, I can definitely say I'm getting Pokemon X. Tax returns are wonderful so I'll be getting a 3DS XL when I can.
Hoenn, because Torchic/Blaziken is a boss.
Kanto, cuz old-school was still the best in my days. Charizard will always be one of my favorites. Even Blastoise kicks just as much ass as Charizard.
Just another Johto/Typhlosion fan here.

I was training a Gallade in SoulSilver. I still have to finish leveling Samurific to 100. Perhaps I'll transfer him to Black.
Also, when you do, I say we have a POKEMON BATTLE!! 8D
It's the reason I wanted a gen 6 so bad, so that I can battle people over Wi- Fi again.
Hoenn. Dem Bagons.
I hate water, so whichever region doesn't have much.
Guess Unova for me since Surf isn't even required there.
Kanto and Johto for me, it's those two maps I remember the best among all of them, they are still stuck in my mind after so many years. ^^
And that's maybe why I enjoyed doing the live stream of Pokemon Crystal (http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLE5D45B0315D108DC) a few years ago~ :cookie:
My cute little Eevee was picked up in Jotho too~ >U< (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQaCq1ZJmkM)
I just love the Hoenn Pokemon so much, my female Absol, and my Plusle or Minun that I don't use in Double Battles. It was also when I discovered that having a female stater somehow makes me find rare Pokemon easier, I found four Surskits in that file.

I believe she's talking about getting a 3DS
Ah okay then.

And I think she should get this one! 8D
But I think she wants a XL and there's no purple.
I still say she should go with that purple one! 8D
Well the purple one does look nice.
Exactly. Once again, I'm right! XD
I just said it looks nice, I didn't say she should get it. I personally would get a red or black one if I didn't have one already.
I personally would upgrade to the XL if it meant my DS games didn't look like ass.
But I don't exactly feel like dropping $200 on a system I already own! Besides, I love my 3DS too much to even consider wanting to get rid of it.
I'm still pondering if I should get a normal 3DS or a 3DS XL...
Normal is more portable... But XL has longer battery life and bigger screens...

I seriously don't really notice that.
I think I like the regular 3DS better. Plus, it comes in Shiny PB Red! 0v0
I like my black 3DS just fine.
Well it matches Sakura's black shorts!
I seriously need to have an updated Sakura drawn someday.
I want the green one shown in a previous E3... But I guess I'll go with Aqua Blue.

Red/Black, Blue/Black, and Pink/White.
I've been eyeing the XL, but... damn that purple is gorgeous! Although how it looks in actual light and not on a picture by Nintendo I don't know. I mean, my first DS was pink and it looked pearl-ish on the box but it's actually dull. =/

Anyway, perusing Serebii.net, I came across an interesting post. It seems that the choices for the Legendaries designs may have some basis to Norse mythology. Some of the animals that are said to reside in the tree Yggdrasil: an unnamed
eagle, the
stags Dáinn, Dvalinn, Duneyrr and Duraþrór, and the great wyrm, Níðhöggr. So if this theory is correct, Pokemon Z could be the wyrm.
I've seen the purple in person and I think it looks sexy. Darkwing Duck sexy!
Also, that makes sense!
Yeah this one does seem to have more Norse roots.
We need a Thor Pokemon then!
Probably some random legendary, they always add like 7 each game or something.
Interesting note: since one of the cities seems to be based on Paris, could the region be partially based on Normandy? I bring this up because Norsemen (AKA Vikings) settled the region in the 9th century IRL.
It could be possible, that must be why the heroine is unusually more fashionable.
It seems to have a nod to France, or at least one location being a nod to Paris. I also read that there could be a possibility of customizing your trainer. That scene in the trailer with the male trainer looking in a full length mirror is making people think that. It wouldn't be the first time they had it, I think Battle Revolution did it before. It would be a wonderful thing especially with Wi-Fi connections to others. Everyone won't look the same or generic schoolkid, lass, hiker, ranger, etc.

How well do they match to the image on the box? My first DS I brought the pink one because the image made it look pearlescent. When I opened it, it was very dull and unimpressive.
If customization is in, I would totally love to have the ability to dress as trainers from both main and side games.
I would love that to happen.
Even if it was only outfit changes I would love it. But I'd be especially love a chance to change eyes, skin tone, hair colors and styles. X3 It will be amazing.
Then a true VixyNyan female trainer can show up~ :cookie:
Yeah I mean I don't mind the female protagonist's outfit, but it's not me.
I don't mind the Female protag either. But I like Touko and Leaf so much more.
May and Leaf are kinda above Touko to me if only because of May's bandana and short hair.
Touko's my favorite because of that Giant Ponytail and dem Jean Shorts. But I like May as well because Bike shorts and Leaf because Leaf is simply cute.
Never cared for Dawn though.
Dawn is okay but I take her over Lyra. I don't mind her hair but that outfit. :\
Lyra's at the bottom of the totem pole, but she's okay I guess. She's no Kris but whatever.
I don't know if I put Kris over Dawn or not though. :\
Hell, I'm not sure whether or not to classify Mei/Rosa as female or male.
That typo was veeerry convincing.
I almost couldn't tell that she was wearing shorts and not a skirt.

Well I'm going for the Flame Red XL 3DS this May since the bottom screen of my 3DS is a little messed up in a certain spot making it hard to write/draw in the SwapNote and other 3DS games that use the bottom screen so I need a new one and I like to have a longer battery and more room on the screen to do things.

But a legit one is fine too, I might do it next tuesday.

I thought Mewtwo always uses Memory Wipe.
PP ran out?
In the English version, Ash got mad at Mewtwo for that. Mewtwo agreed to not wipe his or Misty and Brock's memory. He instead wiped the memories of Giovanni and the rest of Team Rocket.
Oh... I see. Thank you. *never watched Returns*
How do I get a Keldeo?
Initial release was Gamestop (from 27 August 2012 to 6 October 2012), then WiFi (from 25 January 2013 to 12 February 2013), so that's all over now. 8D

Stop interfering in my plans! :W
If I'm right he just started BW2 anyway, so even if he got the Keldeo now it won't do a damn thing he tells it to do since they REALLY made it disobedient.
MY PLANSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS :W
Does anyone else NOT like the new design they are doing with the anime style for the new regions?
I always liked the anime design they had back when they started in Kanto. I always picture Mewtwo with that design as well as he was in Returns. But ever since the new anime design, Ash's design has changed so much, he almost looks even younger than before. Also since Dan Green won't be able to do any more English dubbing for the West, I can't really hear anyone else doing a good job. It's going to be completely different for me when this movie gets translated. I just don't know what to expect, since Mewtwo is my favorite out of all of them.
And for the record, I think Ash should have quite while he was ahead. I mean......
[spoiler]He even failed in the pokemon league 5 times in a row[/spoiler]
But I guess he has to stay in the anime, since he's apparently named after the creator of the series. Despite Ash being a mediocre trainer, rather than a master like Red is apparently.
Quote from: VirusChris on March 07, 2013, 04:18:38 AM

Crap, now I gotta watch the anime again. >w<
As for the VA, yes Dan Green was awesome, but Mewtwo's had two other english VAs (well, one grown-up and one baby), and I haven't heard a bad one yet. So, here's hoping.

A Level 100 Mewtwo with Unnerve an Hurricane? Come on, where's the fun in leveling him up? XD
I don't really care about Mewtwo, but I wish they didn't give him Unnerve for a hidden ability. So many Pokemon have it for a hidden ability when they can have something better.

I loved the secret bases.
Kinda lame that they were just a one-off idea.
And Regarding the Mach Bike, it has its uses, but they're not very good, Sky Tower was almost like a completely different game because of that twitchy gameplay mechanic.

Me too, I was always hoping they'd make a return.
The stupid room in the underground in Gen 4 is as close as it gets, I suppose.
With Wi-Fi and the 3DS potential graphics they'd use to enhance the remake, it'd be nice if you could make custom posters and stuff to decorate with
I want my clump of grass secret base back.
I want a Cyndaquil plushie and a Snorlax beanbag chair
Yes plushies being back would be awesome.
Anyway since we're posting stuff about the new movie I might as well post this here.

This is going to be called Black and White season 2 Da!
Basically this is going to happen after Episode N and Ash is going to visit some islands on Unova. I honestly didn't expect this, but then again I don't really watch the anime anymore. It's like they're trying to copy the Orange Islands or something.

I don't really care about Mewtwo, but I wish they didn't give him Unnerve for a hidden ability. So many Pokemon have it for a hidden ability when they can have something better.
...well, it beats the hell out of Pressure, which was the "generic past Legendary Ability" beforehand.
Personally, I want to see a main-series game (Gen III remake or otherwise) that allows the same level of trainer customization as Battle Revolution. Both outfits AND battle lines. I miss that a lot.

Also my in game team now is a Dewott, Joltik, Lucario, Braviary, Growlithe, and a Roselia.
Sounds like a pretty good team to me!
In game or other?
Both! XD
Even with the other consisting of 9 pokemon?
I cannot recall exactly what team I was using in Random Matchup but I believe it was: Garchomp, Gyarados, Conkeldurr, Gengar, Jolteon, and Ferrothorn. It was surprisingly effective, I even got caught in a war of attrition with my Ferrothorn and my opponent rage quit after ten minutes. That was oddly satisfying.

Hydreigon with Dark Pulse, Dragon Pulse, Earth Power and Flamethrower.

Well, there is a bit of strategy to it. Gyarados has quite a bit of bulk so he can survive a non-electric hit well enough. Just get that Dragon Dance boost up and equip him with a Life Orb and you got a one-mon wrecking machine.
All this talk of competitive Poke-battling is starting to remind me of the good ol' days of D/P at Marriland's YouTube page. Those where the days... ~w~

Seen it, don't buy it for a minute. The body maybe, but the screen should not work. it should have melted. In fact, when i look at it, it really looks like a shell they put over it or something.
Still, the Nintendo World/Pokemon Center is truly awesome. Whenever I'm in Manhattan in the Rockefeller Center area I try to go there. It is pricey though, if I remember. Haven't been there in ages.

Hmmmm...actually, I don't wanna give up my Jirachi. Sorry Doc.
I'll have to get a Deimo the hard way. Catch it! XD
There are no wild Deinos in B2W2. Wild Zweilous are instead found only at Victory Road in B2W2.
Wild Deinos are in BW, and it's only at Victory Road.
I HAVE LVL1 DEINOS THAT ARE MODEST, AND HAVE DARK PULSE, DRAGON PULSE, EARTH POWER AND FLAMETHROWER!!
Hmmmm, that is tempting. I have B/W so at least now I know where to catch it!
With B2W2 move tutors, it's SO much easier to get Earth Power AND Dark Pulse on Deino.
Hmmmm, anything else you want for that Deino? 8D
Depends on what you can offer really.

For those of you with Pokedex 3D Pro, they finally revealed the password to unlock Meloetta's data. As with Genesect's data, go to the Pokemon Challenge and delete one of the purple challenges near the bottom. Enter the passcode TTQALFHN. Complete the quiz and BAM! You got Meloetta.
Also, Genesect's password is PHSKUTDF, in case you missed that.
Do you really have to complete a quiz just for the pokedex data? I'm terrible with quizzes. :P
Also, in my version, there are 3 green bars with [delete] button below a purple one, which does not have one. Did I miss something, or did you mean green instead of purple?
odd
on mine, i have green AND purple, both of which have Delete buttons. i also have four magenta ones with a delete button (66-69).

Not in the anime. 8D
4 spamming elemental Techno Blasts (Water, Ice, Fire, Electric), and the red spamming Extremespeed...

HA! CALLED IT! 8D
Mewtwo-point-one?
Clearly this one must be the new evolution for Luvdisc.
Okay, I think my childhood is ruined now. I still hate it. I rather prefer the old one. :P
I want to see Hypershell's reaction for this.
Well, finally confirmation.
Okay, well..... Some say that this is a brand new pokemon entirely, and not a new form. There's some info that backs this up. A lot of fan work suggests that it's a whole new 'body' as well. Though fan work isn't canon, but that's how others are seeing the new pokemon.
If it's a totally new character all together, than I am perfectly fine with this.
But if it's a new form, then I don't like it.
I just don't want them to touch the original characters looks, stats, or anything.
Though it does looks kind of weird. So I donno. I've got mixed feelings about this one.
I don't see the big deal about it if it is a new Forme, if it is you can always change it back/not use it.
Now give me that new Farfetch'd/Dunsparce/Luvdisc evolution!!
Even though there's now way in hell this would happen I would love to have a Absol evolution just so Absol can get more speed.
Still calling it as a new forme.
We'll find out how to change Mewtwo into this Awakened Forme (c) in a new upcoming trailer for Extremespeed Genesect: Mewtwo's Awakening on April 18th, or at least some new information on it.
new form: Hate it.
new stand-alone: Like it. Or at least i can deal with it.
i think its [tornado fang]ing stupid, personally
If it ends up not being a form, am I the only one thinking of the possibility of it being something like Manaphy and Phione?

(why does it look like a lucario)
Perhaps it's just a natural evolved Mew? NewMew? 8D
It doesn't really look anything like Mew...Then again we have Trapinch.
Exactly. I figure since Mewtwo is a enhanced clone of Mew that this just could be Mew's natural evo. That and I just wanted to call him NewMew! XD
Well we need to know about this and Sylveon.
As well as the evo's of the 3 starters.
Fennekin better not somehow end up being a fighting type in any way shape or form.
I'm really hoping for a Fire/Psychic. Even though I love Victini! 8D
I doubt a canine-like pokémon Fennekin would turn into a Fighting type, but then again we have Lucario so what do I know. '>.>
Needs more Japanese reactions, amirite? XD

Granted. I'm more worried about what this means for Smash Bros.
Although, in the Pokemon games proper, there is the question of "why screw with perfection?" Mewtwo is considered to have pretty much the ideal stat distribution (assuming for the sake of argument that simply puming up his Base Stat total, such as restoring his Special Defense to what it was before the Gen2 split, is off the table), and now that he FINALLY has a freaking signature move in combination with the ever awesome Aura Sphere, about the only thing his movepool is lacking is Nasty Plot.
...well, that and I guess they could give him some Ability that doesn't suck.

Just give him a new ability called Dark Override. "All Dark moves don't work!"
In that case we should give him Justifide.

So... Mewtwo's got a new... something. Headphones and a ponytail. I... guess I could get used to it, but I don't know... I don't like how they're tramping on Mewtwo's look like that.
I'm tempted to change my avatar to support classic Mewtwo. Any suggestions? 8D

Now Mewtwo commands you to pet his platypus.
Mewtwo has a platypus!? *pets a Psyduck instead*
It has been confirmed that it is indeed a new forme of Mewtwo.
Source? 8)
Serebii.net, reason I don't post it is because you would get the entire news page for the past week or 2.
Or you could just quote the news post. :P
Which is why I prefer PokeBeach: http://pokebeach.com/2013/04/corocoro-leaks-confirms-new-mewtwo-forme
Also...
Quote"Mewtwo, who was in the background, has awakened and become a new forme!"
CALLED IT [eyebrow]
Too many trading cards. o-O
Okay, so it's a new form. Can it be toggled, or is the change permanent?
All formes can be toggled so I don't see why this can't. Forms are usually triggered by learning a certain move or by holding a certain item.
Oh, good! It would suck to be stuck with that hideous form forever. Bleeeccchh.
It looks kinda cute to me though.
I like MewThree! 8D
I at least think he looks cuter than Cubchoo, seriously even though it's a little bear the snot drop ruins it.
He needs lightning around him! 8)
I'll try to warm up to it. But, I see this as the SpEd version, like Lucas decided that the original didn't meet his "original vision."
What I find amusing is how much more powerful is Mewthree going to be? Mewtwo was already insane! XD
He will become even more insane.
I'm totally seeing it as a glass cannon (over-the-top SpAtt, faster Speed, but both defenses take a huge hit).
Mewtwo's defense was always a bit lousy, from what I remember. He could hit like a jackhammer, but little things could take him down pretty quick.
His defense wasn't too shabby. My Snorlax could originally take him on, before they improved fighting moves anyway.
I must have been misusing my Mewtwo, then, as he tired out pretty fast. That is, if others even got in a hit before he took them down like nobody's business. For the most part, he was pretty damn awesome to grind with, until I'd hit the occasional bad match and one damn Pokemon would mop the floor with him.
Then again, this was back in the days of Pokemon Yellow, as that was the only game I had. I had Silver, but didn't play it as much.
We need to get you a 3DS and HeartGold 8)
But Soulsilver's got better Pokemon.
I think Quickie likes Ho-Oh more though!
But Skarmory, freaking Skarmory!
Well see this is why it's good to have friends like us. We can trade her a Skarmory! 8D

Quote from: Protoman Blues on April 16, 2013, 07:15:09 AM

That's why you get the opposite version. So you get the one you like at level 70 as opposed to level 40.
But the one you get at level 40 will be stronger at level 70 than the other version with the level 70 version.
I prefer getting the one I like earlier on. That way we grow together, as Pokemon and Trainer. THAT'S THE LT. PB WAY! HAHAHAHA!!!!

Pretty much the reason I'm pretty sure people hack to get lv 1 legendaries and why the GTS is so screwed up.
I only use the GTS to get event pokemon and such that I missed out on.
I also used it to cheat my pokedex because I stopped caring about playing by the rules. Its not like I play online.

Sure why not.
EDIT: Well expectedly that was dashed.
Would it be wrong me me to say that this is NOT Kento Mewtwo, but Univa region Mewtwo? I mean compare the designs and the color schemes. They do not match, despite being the same pokemon. It's the only thing I can think of as to why this Mewtwo has a new form, while the other one never did. ;)
BTW, are there any more anime style game artwork of mewtwo online anywhere besides Bulbapedia? The reason I ask is because I have obtained an info/art book called 'The Complete Pokemon Pocket Guide' #(1), and it contains artwork of Mewtwo I have never seen online before. It's got a back pose, and a few other ones I'd like to get my hands on. If not, I suppose I could try and scan them from my book. :P
Of course, this book has other artwork of pokemon too in this anime style. But I can't remember if they all existed online somewhere or not.
Well, there was sort of a magical girl transformation sequence. 8D

Well, the trailer showed that this Mewtwo has a female voice. So, maybe it is another Mewtwo?
And go ahead with scanning... Though will it destroy the book?
Wait. Female voice. New forme. Transformation.
THERE REALLY WAS A MAGICAL GIRL TRANSFORMATION 8D
That's interesting. They originally said that Mewtwo was genderless. But now they have a differently designed Mewtwo in this anime, and voiced by a female. Does that mean that there are two mewtwos? The original one being Male, and this new one with the transformation being female.
I think that's the only logical sense. Although it's still hard to tell if Mewtwo getting a gender is canon yet. Sure the anime is not based off the games. Tough in theory, if Mewtwo does have a new form, he would need to be included in the new X/Y games. If it turns out that this one gets a female gender in the game, than it will pretty much be canon, and that he finally gets a gender in this generation. Not that it would be necessary. Though I always imagined the original #150 Mewtwo being male. Not because of their VA's, but because the design of the character as well.
NO MEWTWO IS GENDERLESS BLAHBLAHBLAH
http://pokemonxy.jp/news/20130420/new_mewtwo.html
QuoteAhead on Saturday, July 13, the release of Pokemon new movie, about Mewtwo is an important character of the work, discussion of "whether it is a different individual from the Mewtwo of the first work" is flourishing on the Internet had.
For Mewtwo that appear in this work, Kunihiko Yuyama director said, "not a Mewtwo (the first film) the same" in an interview with the official site.
Childhood saved.... apparently, hopefully? :)
That's pretty sad if a minor thing such as a forme change is apparently enough to ruin your childhood.
Anyway, Sylveon/Ninfeon seems like a pokemon that would only Female. Though since Eevee is mostly Male, I bet it'll be the same deal.

One word.
Gardevoir.
Not necessarily. Well, okay I'll admit, I was probably overreacting when it was first unveiled in scans. I just can't see him as anything else. It seems to be okay with everyone else though. I just prefer the old one instead TBH. :\
Again you don't have to use it, and you can always toggle from the old and new form so it's not a big deal.

This gave me a good laugh. One can only hope the NewMew punishes it's foes in the name of the moon.
So, I had a thought.
This new female-voiced NewMewtwo should be voiced by GLaDOS.
Also, N-Mario... any word on possibly scanning those unseen pics?
Oh.... Right.....
Well, this isn't a 'scan', but it's a picture taken from iPhone. I can try to get a better scan if needed. Though it should be enough to see if the artwork style exists online, right?
Again, a page from 'The Complete Pokemon Pocket Guide' #(1) by Vizkidz/Viz Media.
See attachment.
The back view is used on the D-Arts packaging. The rest I may be able to find, possibly hiding on Serebii or someplace.
According to Serebii.net there will be a huge announcement about Pokemon X and Y on May 19th.
(http://i.imgur.com/SfPKo0P.jpg)
I just saw this, not sure if its new or not.
It's new and I like the designs of them.
EDIT:It seems confirmed that you can change the protagonist's hair color.
What were the default colors again? Brown and Blonde?
It was like brown and red, though now that I look at it it seems that it's also skin tone along with the hair.
For the girl you get pale skin and blond hair, peach skin and orange hair, or dark skin and dark hair.
For the guy you get pale and blond, peach skin and brown, and dark skin and dark hair.
Wait... so you can't change the hair without changing the skin?
That's a terrible system.
I guess so according to the scan. It's on Serebii.net like everything else if you want to see the scan.
EDIT:I found the separated article on Poke Beach and here's the link. Also region seems to be confirmed as Poke France known as Karos.

The Panda and the Goat are my favorite so far with this Generation of Pokemon.
Also I'm LOVING the Character Customization one, though I hope there's some cloth option in it like with Pokemon Colosseum a bit. Can't remember how much customization there was in that one.
Also I really hope they'll bring back your Pokemon partner traveling behind you again like with Pokemon Soul Silver and Heart Gold, there's no excuse since they have 3D Models this time around and you're riding on top of the Goat Pokemon! I think this is the first know Goat Pokemon in the series, we had a sheep but no goat if I remember.
According to multiple sources the Karos Pokedex will be divided into 3 areas Central Karos Pokedex, Costal Karos Pokedex and Mountain Karos Pokedex.
Very interesting.

Humans and Pokémon peacefully coexist in the world of Pokémon. In addition to playing as a human hero, you'll meet many other folks. Some of them will help you on adventure, while many others will stand in your way!
Hero and Heroine
Before your adventure begins, you will first select whether you want to play as a male or female hero. Your adventure will be largely the same no matter what your choice.
You'll choose your gender before you even take your first step
Choose the hero that best suits you and set off for your adventure!
At certain points you'll be able to get new outfits and accessories for your Trainer! What attire will you choose for your Trainer?
You'll be able to see the clothing you choose as you explore the Kalos region!
You can go back and change your outfit whenever you like.

RUMORS
Quote- Fairy will be a new type weak to Poison and Steel, immune to Dragon, super effective against Dragon, Dark, and Fighting, and Fire and Psychic-type Pokemon take half damage from it.
- Sylveon is Fairy-type. Some older Pokemon will be reclassified to Fairy, such as Mawile (Steel/Fairy).
- Mewtwo has two new formes, not just one. Both are activated via items.
- The professor's English name is Patrice.
- The Starter final evolutions are Fire/Psychic, Grass/Fighting, and Water/Dark.
- The first Gym is Bug, the second is Fairy, and the fourth is Fighting.
- A few attacks will be dual-typed.
- There will be a new type of battling style that Flying-type Pokemon and Pokemon with Levitate can participate in.
- You will be able to see a Pokemon's EVs at a certain in-game facility. You will be able to boost the EVs through mini-games. It will take about two hours to get one stat to max EVs.
I really hope the first 2 stay rumors.
Why's that?
I don't know really, I just don't like the idea of a new type, and if there was a new type I want it to at least make more sense than light (which electric and psychic covers) or fairy. But if there is a new type I'll just accept it.
I personally hope the seeing EV things happens.
EDIT: Plus an immunity to dragon would be stupid because Dragon is only super effective against Dragon.
I kinda like the Dragon immunity, as well as giving Steel some more uses.
Yeah I wouldn't mind giving Poison and Steel type attacks more use, it's just pointless to give an immunity to Dragon like that.

It's sort of LONG overdue for a new Pokemon Type, but Fairy for all things? Interesting choice, which explains why Sylveon's type has remained unknown for some time. Fairy type seems a little overpowered considering it can take on Dragon and Dark easily but they needed something to even the playing field so I'm excited for this new type.
Mewtwo has TWO forms? So the movie is only showing one or is this second form going to appear in the end and is currently hidden? I'm not sure about this rumor...
So no more Fire and Fighting type? FINALLY! I have nothing against that dual type but for a long time most of the newer generation of Fire Starter Pokemon ended up being Fire and Fighting while the other two had some different Dual Types at times or just a Single Type. And it's a Fire and Psychic type? It looks like Victini finally has company! ^_^
And Grass and Fighting? I don't recall any other Pokemon with a Dual Type like that... is this a first in Pokemon?
And the next Professor is called "Patrice"? That's a female name so another female Professor?
And a new Battling Style for Flying Type and with Levitate? I'm intrigued I wonder what it will be! And now there will be attacks that will be Dual-Types? So that means more new strategic options will be available this time around for battling which should be fun!
And we can FINALLY see EV stats without the use of a Cheat Device? Excellent! This will make EV and IV training a tad bit easier now.

Also, there was an error about the rumours.
Final evos are Fire/Psychic, Grass/Dark, and Water/Fighting.
Of course, still rumours.
Is it me or is it highly appropriate that the rumored Fairy-type is weak to Poison and Steel? Considering that Tinkerbell drank poison for Peter Pan (before she got better) and that cold iron is typically a weakness of fairies. I do not get the Dragon immunity though.
Sadly I can't buy that XL unless it suddenly shows up on Yahoo Auctions. =w=
I'm still against the idea of a new type.
Also because that recent list of rumors say that the Professor's English name is Patrice.
That is not a tree. Professors are named after trees.

If there was a new type, I'd be okay with Light.
just not FAIRY
cause, like, seriously

Also because that recent list of rumors say that the Professor's English name is Patrice.
That is not a tree. Professors are named after trees.
How do you pronounce Patrice?
"Pah-treece"
Treece sounds like trees right?
There. Your tree.
New professor should be named Willow or something.
Or Pine.
following the pattern
OAK ELM - 3 letters
BIRCH ROWAN - 5 letters
JUNIPER ??????? - 7 letters
yes, patrice is 7 letters, and it sounds kinda like trees, but... it's not outright a tree name. I'm still bettin' on Professor Madrone. or something else that isn't like a tree, but actually the name OF a tree.
Hickory, perhaps?
that name sounds like it would work better for a region based on the south >0<

I don't think that's a pattern, more of a coincidence.
Unless this was confirmed to be a pattern
coincidences can often take the form of patterns
and this chain of coincidences has yet to be broken
also another chain of coincidences:
even-numbers generations bring new eeveelutions
sure, eevee originated in gen1, but gen2 brought espeon and umbreon, gen 4 brought leafeon and glaceon, and currently we have gen6 bringing sylveon.

EDIT: Plus an immunity to dragon would be stupid because Dragon is only super effective against Dragon.
Well, to be fair, Normal is super-effective against nothing and Ghost is immune to it. That and Dragons (the good ones) tend to be more about bulldozing with raw power than about type advantages.
But I agree, a Dragon immunity would suck. I enjoyed Outrage being, you know, useful. Rule it out for fear of switch-ins and we're quite possibly stuck with frikkin' Dragon Claw, unless somebody threw a new attack in there...
Also, I applaud any efforts to make Steel worth something offensively, but we ALL know Poison isn't going anywhere when it comes to type effectiveness. Poison attacks exist for Poison status, that's pretty much it. Further, if ANY new type is to exist for the sake of "game balance", then Ice types had damn well better resist it.
Immunities are moot after Miracle Eye anyways... So yea.
Rumors:
QuotePancham evolves into Pangoro in the early level 30s. In order to evolve Pancham into Pangoro, you need to have one other Dark-type Pokemon in your party. Pangoro's type is Fighting/Dark.
A Pokemon named Inkay evolves into Malimar. To evolve it, you have to hold your 3DS upside-down when it levels up (the 3DS has an accelerometer and gyroscope, so it can detect that). Malimar's type is Dark/Psychic.
A Psychic-type Pokemon named Espurr (ESP + purr) evolves into Meowstick (Meow + mystic?). (Sounds like Psychic-type cats. Meowstick's name sounds too similar to Meowth to me though.)
Like in B/W you have two rivals - one is friendly and the other is competitive. Your rival that is more friendly gives you his/her fully evolved starter Pokemon after you beat the game.
Another professor named Sycamore gives you either Bulbasaur, Charmander, or Squirtle.
Even though it shows the player riding on a Gogoat in the new trailer, players can't ride on their own Pokemon. What was shown is just an alternate way of getting around Lumiose City and it only works with Gogoat.
HMs still exist but there's a lot less of them.
Players will be able to see their Pokemon's EVs (probably through the same in-game facility mentioned in the other post).
A new move, Belch, is a Poison-type attack that has a base power of 120. The user must consume a held Berry to perform it.
Draining Kiss is a Fairy-type attack that heals the user for the same amount of damage performed. It has a base power of 60.
If the previously revealed forme of Mewtwo can be said to look roughly similar to Mewtwo's original design, the second supposed form of Mewtwo can be said to look roughly/vaguely similar to Mew's design.
In case you missed our correction the other day, the Starters' final evolutions are Fire/Psychic, Grass/Dark, and Water/Fighting.
Where do you get these rumors, some of them are crazy.

Ah, crazy rumors are crazy.
We'll see if WPM's insider information is really... INSIDE
I won't believe these unless they came from a Coro Coro magazine.
Well, based on what WPM said, Parabolic Charge was inside, and confirmed recently.
Quote from: Supposed 'X' and 'Y' Insider Information
Saturday, May 11th, 2013 @ 3 PM PST - By: Water Pokémon MasterThen this morning, CoroCoro finally gave us the first major X and Y details since the games were first announced. Among those details was one tiny little tidbit that the source had first told me about in February - that there would be a new Electric move that drains its opponent's HP. This was the only attack that the person had told me about in February, and yet it is such a specific detail to make up. For that information to be verified three months later seems to indicate that the source is the real deal (unless they are just really good at guessing).
Of course, even WPM says it needed more than one attack to validate his source, but he went ahead with all the other inside info the source gave, which were the rumours PB posted.
More Rumors from the Rumor Mill:
Quote
First, to address the gaps in what he did post:
-Mewtwo does not actually have two physically different forms. The form already seen, which is called the "Supersonic Forme," can have two different stat sets. This is accomplished by giving it one of two items: the X Gene transforms Mewtwo and boosts its Special Attack and Speed, while the Y Gene transforms it and boosts its Attack and Speed.
-He is being misleading with what he terms "dual-type attacks." There are around twenty new attacks that are listed as one type and calculate damage using another. One is "Acro Smash," a Fighting-type move that does Flying-type damage, and another is "Frost Drill," a Ground-type move that does Ice-type damage.
-The new 'flying battles' are a side competition that is only open to Flying-type Pokémon, Pokémon with Levitate and Pokémon that can learn Fly.
The only Pokémon names I gave him were Helioptile, Fletchling, Pancham and Gogoat. He did not reveal the information I gave him on their evolutions: Helioptile evolves twice, keeping a similar appearance but getting larger; its final form is Electric/Dragon and very menacing in appearance. Fletchling evolves once, into a very sharp-looking Flying/Fire-type with a flaming halo and a bow-and-arrow tail. Pancham has one evolution and stays pure Fighting; its appearance is not very remarkable. Gogoat doesn't evolve, as it is mainly a "gimmick" Pokémon, but it is fairly strong.
I also gave him two other Pokémon. One was a three-stage, pure Fire-type that starts as a small hamburger with sesame seed eyes, evolves into a double cheeseburger that adds onion ring 'arms' and pickle 'feet,' and finally becomes a giant 'quad' burger adding a lettuce 'cape' and tomato 'crown.' A literal 'burger king.' A lot of you are going to hate it after how poorly Vanilluxe was received, I think, but I really think it's very clever. It learns Flare Blitz.
The other is a Bug/Poison fly Pokémon. It's only one stage, and is said to be very fragile but incredibly fast and powerful. Unfortunately, its design is rather boring. It's just exactly what you would picture a fly Pokémon - a fly with exaggerated facial features (large yellow eyes, a cartoonish mouth.) It does however learn a new Poison type move that heals it by an equal amount to the damage done.
Other small bits I gave him:
-PokéStar Studios and the World Tournament return, both greatly expanded.
-There are plans for very significant DLC support. This includes event Pokémon, new outfits and accessories, special World Tournament divisions, and record-sharing, all via SpotPass and StreetPass.
-Character customization is very extensive; I would say that it is better than the feature in Pokémon Battle Revolution. There are massive numbers of new outfits and accessories that can be earned throughout the game. One example is that BP can be used to purchase outfits of every returning character from the World Tournament.
-Colress and Cynthia return and play prominent roles. The story is four years after the events of Black and White 2.
-The new bottom-screen tool is the "PokéPad," a tablet computer that can be customized with many features and wallpapers.
In addition, I sent him some information regarding the animation; I thought he would be eager to post it because of how anticipated it has been. "Rekindling Old Memories!", the episode where Charizard returns, airs on June 8, and "Team Plasma's Pokémon Control!" airs on June 15. Also on June 15, Cartoon Network will finally air the revised version of the skipped episodes from 2011 as a one-hour special titled "Team Rocket Versus Team Plasma: A Battle of Ideals!." I am not aware of all the changes made to the episodes, but Jessie and James are wearing their white uniforms and the meteorite from the original has been replaced with the Dark Stone in the material I have seen.
"Pokémon the Movie: Mewtwo Awakens" will be released in American theaters for one week, October 4-11, to tie into the release of X and Y.
All of this information is currently being revised and finalized, and will be released sometime in the next two weeks once the web design team gets the go-ahead to put it on the site.
As much as the forme can be beneficial, I still think it's ugly as sin.
See... those reasons and stuff... make the rumors more believable.
Wow, Extremespeed Mewtwo isn't entirely a Deoxys ripoff is it :\
Not entirely. Still hideous. I'll stick with classic, brooding, raiding-Pidgeotto-coops-in-the-city Mewtwo who wears a snazzy cape.
Wow first a soft-serve now we get a burger. Where's Pokemon Awkward, now?
I'm not believing this crap until I see official proof.
Oh I don't believe it either, I'm just saying.
At least it makes sense instead of just being outright stupid.
(also i like vanillite's line; rather solid ice-types there)
It kinda does, I kinda still hope for the seeing EVs thing to be honest.
I still want my Bug/Dark mosquito.
'specially cause we haven't seen that combo yet
actually, here's all the combos we currently lack (you can flip order and it still applies)
normal/fire normal/electric normal/ice normal/poison normal/ground normal/bug normal/rock normal/ghost normal/dragon normal/dark normal/steel

Pokemon X and Y will have a special presentation and Q and A at E3.
It will last an hour and a half too.
Perhaps this is when the mysteries will be revealed.
WHAT IS SYLVEON'S TYPE?
WHAT RELATION DOES THAT NEW MEWTWO FORME HAVE TO THE ORIGINAL?
WHAT WILL THE STARTERS EVOLVE INTO?
FIND OUT NEXT TIME ON POKÉMON DIRECT
SAME POKÉ TIME, SAME POKÉ CHANNEL
While I don't like the look of Mewtwo's new form, I would like to know more about it.
Let's revive this thread with the latest XY news!
Firstly, a new trailer that reveals tons of new stuff.
And it seems WPM's insider info is right about the FAIRY type.
Quote from: Pokebeach
- Noivern is Flying/Dragon, 4' 11", 187.4 lbs., and uses a new attack called Boomburst.
- Vivillon is Bug/Flying, 3' 11", 37.5 lbs., and can learn Struggle Bug.
- The Fairy type was officially revealed: Fairy-types include Sylveon (Fairy), Gardevoir (Psychic/Fairy), Jigglypuff (Normal/Fairy), and Marill (Water/Fairy).
- Fairy is super effective against Dragon-type. This also matches with what our source told us.
- Sylveon knows a new move called Moonblast, a Fairy-type move which lowers its target's Sp. Atk stat. Gardevoir can learn Fairy Wind.
- There will be a new Pokemon interacting feature called Pokemon-amie, which allows you to bond with your Pokemon by petting them, feeding them, and playing with them to "deepen the connection between you." You can copy the actions they're performing with your 3DS to make them even happier too.
- Old Pokemon still have their old sound effect cries.
- Yveltal used Hyper Beam attack, which uses the exact same sound effect from Red and Blue.
- Apparently there's a new way to encounter wild Pokemon - "Whoa! The Heloptile you stepped on attacked!"
- X and Y will be released worldwide on October 12th.

I now want this for the Pokemon-ami portion. Heck, if they made an iPad app for just that, I'd be all over it. Then, I would ask people creepy-sounding questions.
"Would you like to pet my Mewtwo?" 8D
pokemon-amie is just the dream eaters part of kh3d
not that i'm complaining, just pointing it out
Okay I don't mind the Fairy Type anymore and I think because of this Gardevoir will be more useful.

Also, most, if not all Pokemon that are listed as Fairy Pokemon in the PokeDex would most likely be sub-typed as Fairy.
Well now I have to buy Quickie a 3DS! 8D
*Shoves Mewtwo into the topic.*
PET HIM!
But anyway, should they have the foresight to port it to iPad, I'd buy it. Otherwise, I'll look into a 3DS.
The big problem, though, would be getting my Pokemon from Yellow and Silver into the new games.
I don't think they can port something that big on the iPad.
They ported Knights of the Old Republic, recently.
Oh Quickie, I'll just buy you a 3DS & HeartGold for all the lovely drawings you've done for me over the years! 8)
I still need to figure out how to get my Pokemon from Yellow to HeartGold. They weren't transferred to Silver, as I didn't have a cable.

You can't do that Quickie.
Due to how the pokemon are programmed on the GB/GBC games, they're impossible to port to Gen III and above. (Something about bits or something, GB/GBC ones use two bits or whatever, Gen 3+ use 4 bits or whatever.)
If you want to get your pokemon back you should probably get a GBA and a copy of FireRed or something. :\
FireRed it is. I want PerkyTerky back.
You can't transfer Pokemon from Fire Red until the Main Story is over.
Either way, I'll still get my Pokemon.
Well can't you just catch them again in HeartGold?
Quote from: Protoman Blues on June 11, 2013, 06:24:27 PM

Yeah most of the Gen 1 Pokemon are in the game, in fact they added a way to revive fossils when you're in the Kanto half.
Double-checking, yes. I'll miss my old buddies from Yellow, but they can be replaced.
Off to Cerulean Cave! 8D
WOOT!
Once this vacation is done, Quickie, you'll have it heading your way! 8)
New Pokemon Leaked!

I agree with this, but it's not too bad. I just wish it wasn't part Normal, though I guess normal type moves will get STAB. I'll only use it if I don't like the moves Fennekin's evo gets or if by the off chance it's part fighting. If that happens Chespin will be my starter since I haven't picked Grass since Gen 1.

'specially since the short one is obviously looking up some info.
NO SHE IS ROSA
OBVIOUSLY
That lion cub is now Litleo.
EVEN THE NAME IS CUTE
also someone pointed out that its tail looks like a scorpion stinger, so maybe it'll evolve into a manticore-type thing.
Now, it's our first Fire/Normal type, but if it does turn out that's like a scorpion stinger, that's close to Poison. We haven't had a Fire/Poison type before. I've heard that Fairy is weak to Poison, so if that's true then it makes sense to introduce this new unique type combo to combat the new type.
I just can't get over the new fat kid literally being named "cute" but in Spanish.

All localised names for the new Pokemon and NPCs from the CoroCoro scans. (http://pokebeach.com/2013/06/another-xy-trailer-reveals-english-names-for-corocoro-characters)
Lastly, a new Mewtwo Special is set to air in Japan on July 11th. It's supposed to take place right before the Genesect movie, plus talk about it's past... Perhaps we'll finally find out if this Mewthree is our old Mewtwo... Credits to Pokebeach (http://pokebeach.com/2013/06/new-mewtwo-special-airing-in-japan-on-july-11).
I doubt it. Though, hopefully it does touch upon what Mewtwo's been up to, the classic one, not this new gal.
Not Gen6 related news, but... I like the artwork.

That's... a Pokemon?
So how many inanimate objects are Pokemon now?
No clue, but it's our first Steel/Ghost type.
This thing better learn Swords Dance. There's never been a more appropriate Pokémon to know that move.
I would only accept its existence if it's a yokai. Otherwise... it's yet another addition to my list of stupid designs that make no sense and show that they're running out of ideas.
well it IS a haunted sword
Am I the only one that doesn't mind inanimate object Pokemon because to me that Pokemon looks awesome. Also that sword reminds me of Zelda.
So, after all his, do we still not know if this is our male voiced mewtwo? Or is this our same mewtwo from 12 years ago with a female voice? I still wished our male mewtwo is different from this new mewtwo who has the forme change. :P
Near as I can tell, this Mewtwo is a different Mewtwo.
Wait until the Mewthree special airs, then we'll know for sure.
Also, Steel/Ghost sword Pokemon... Interesting.
Well, when that special airs, someone give us a thorough synopsis. Hell, if you can live-stream it, date and time in EST and I'll be there. :P

Oh.
Nevermind me then.
If it makes its way across the pond, we'll see it as direct-to-video, most likely. The movie, however, there's talks of a limited theatrical release in October. Whether that will include mainstream theaters remains to be seen, as does whether Gettysburg will be on the list of theaters.
I sure hope so. I wouldn't mind going out to either the Gateway or the Village to watch it.
If anything, we'll see the dub of the movie on CN whenever they get their hands on it. They aired the dubbed version of the Arceus movie a few times if I recall correctly, but I think that was probably after the DVD got released.
I wished they aired the movies in theatres here...
For the record, they never air the Pokemon movies in theaters over here. They have always aired the movies on Cartoon Network, and they have aired every single Pokemon movie to date.
I'm still hoping this is another mewtwo. I just can't see him with a different personality than he was 12 years ago. But I guess animation changes, voice actors get cycles around, so I guess we'll have to see.
BTW, nice new pic QM. That was made by someone from deviantart or something? I don't recognize it.
They used to air movies in theaters here, I think they stopped at Pokemon Forever.
I wished they aired more Pokemon movies on TV here... The only movies aired were Jirachi Wish Maker and Destiny Deoxys. They did air Mewtwo Returns too... And I missed it. Twice. -_-

You know I think he got better in Mewtwo returns, and I
seriously doubt there is a second Mewtwo roaming around. So its probably good old Mewtwo just with a brighter outlook on humanity.
And who knows maybe somebody went and asked if Mewtwo was the same Mewtwo, I doubt that would be something they would keep secret.
Yeah I remember at least seeing advertisements for Pokemon Forever in theatres.
Victini and Zekrom/Victini and Reshiram had (extremely) limited screenings in a bunch of places

Mewtwo did indeed mellow out in
Mewtwo Returns. In the Japanese dub, his voice actor adjusted the voice to be calmer and less edgy. Even Dan Green's voice didn't have that dark edge like Philip Bartlett had, though that was not the reason the voice actor was changed--Philip Bartlett had died before he could reprise the role.
Judging by the trailer, this seems to be a different Mewtwo. Or, perhaps whoever got a hold of him again, messed with him, and changed him.
so that sword had its English name revealed.
It's Honedge.
Wonder if Honedge evolves... o:
To Solcalibur?
Sounds legit. 8D
I like it! 8)
It's also been confirmed that it can learn Swords Dance.
Whew that would've been awkward.

I'm not sure how that makes sense. Eh, not that the Pokemon anime DOESN'T have horrendously inconsistent storytelling to begin with, but Mewtwo's entire character is built around the fact that he is, canonically, one-of-a-kind.
Yeah, it makes not a lick of sense whatsoever. Though, several pages back, there was a post concerning this Mewtwo, saying that it wasn't the same.
In order to make them the same, and judging by what was in that episode teaser, they would have to recapture Mewtwo, change him around, and have him escape once again. Otherwise, they just took a tremendous steaming dump on established continuity.
More info and the type of the Legendaries has been revealed.

Thanks Mirb, and yes it is definitely going to be on my team. Also Team Flare looks FABULOUS~ 8D
I love that sprig of bamboo in his mouth. Like a badass toothpick.
It also has a badass cape.
Everything about the Panda is bad-ass.
And yes, Team Flare looks like they have some flare to them! 8D
I love that flaming fox. It's adorable! That will be my starter.
Flamin' Fox.
Yep. That's my starter as well.
Of course, it's ALWAYS Fire! 8D
His name is Fennekin and we still don't know what the hell he evolves into.
Cotton candy... First ice cream... I will name my panda Po.
Fennekin's nickname shall be Flamin' Fox.
As for my starters, I generally go with water types.
My starters are usually Fire or Water. Bulbasaur was my only Grass type.
I'm choosing Froakie, that frog.
I hope he gets a badass mustache.

Samurott didn't have a mustache.
Stoutland had the crazy moustache.

Right I meant his beard. -u-'
Actually it looks like he had both, I was remembering wrong.
While Team Flare is certainly FABULOUS, am I possibly the only one who's starting to get tired of all these new Team [Whatever]s? Pick one or two and reuse them, I say!
Honestly I would not like to see Team Rocket over and over again.
Nah, I like em. Keeps it fresh and adds new villains to the Poke RP!
What about something entirely new? Something without the "Team" prefix? Not all the evil organizations need to start with "Team."
Bah. Don't mind me. I'm just a crotchety old Generation I veteran who thinks Legendaries should have stopped at the birds.
But you stopped with Gen II.
Gens I and II veteran, then. :P

Yveltal uses it, though it can only just be heard
QuoteBELLEVUE, WA—July 12, 2013—The Pokémon Company International revealed new details about Legendary Pokémon Xerneas and Yveltal today, including their types. Fairy-type Pokémon Xerneas will know Geomancy, a new move exclusive to Xerneas. Yveltal, a Dark- and Flying-type Pokémon, is the only Pokémon that knows the new move Oblivion Wing. Players can encounter Xerneas in Pokémon X and Yveltal in Pokémon Ywhen the video games launch worldwide on October 12, 2013, for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems.
Details of New Legendary Pokémon Xerneas and Yveltal Revealed!
· Xerneas is a Fairy-type—a brand-new type being introduced in Pokémon X and Pokémon Y. Watch the awe-inspiring beauty of Xerneas' exclusive move, Geomancy, which features rainbow-colored light that erupts from the earth around it. Xerneas has the special Ability Fairy Aura, which naturally takes effect in battle, strengthening Fairy-type moves for all Pokémon in battle. Be careful, because Fairy Aura also has a positive effect on opposing Pokémon that know Fairy-type moves.
· Dark- and Flying-type Yveltal is the only Pokémon that can learn the move Oblivion Wing, which sends Yveltal flying high into the sky to release a powerful beam of red light that scorches the ground below. The Destruction Pokémon's special Ability, Dark Aura, is a counterpoint to Fairy Aura, raising the strength of Dark-type moves for all Pokémon in battle. This Ability is powerfully effective in Double and Triple Battles when facing multiple opponents simultaneously. So, when Yveltal is in battle, it's smart for players to fill their team with Pokémon that can use Dark-type moves.
More never-before-seen Pokémon that players will encounter in the Kalos region, including some that are unique to either Pokémon X or Pokémon Y, have been announced this morning. You can check them out at Pokemon.com/XY.
· It is now known that Fighting- and Dark-type Pangoro evolves from spunky little Pancham. This evolved Pokémon has a violent temperament, but it also believes in fairness and does not forgive those who pick on the weak. The leaf Pangoro carries in its mouth can predict its opponent's moves. By waving its strong, heavy arms, Pangoro uses the Fighting-type move Hammer Arm to inflict great damage on opponents. It does lower the user's Speed, but Hammer Arm's power is tremendous.
· Players will encounter Inkay in Pokémon X and Pokémon Y. This Dark- and Psychic-type Pokémon has the ability to drain other Pokémon's will to fight by flashing the transmitters above its eyes—giving Inkay the opportunity either to attack its foes or to hide from them. It's said that the flashing emitted from Inkay's transmitters can also be used to communicate with its friends. Inkay can learn a new Dark-type move, Topsy-Turvy, a tricky move that will reverse all of the stat changes that are affecting a target. For instance, if opponents increase their Attack and Defense stats during battle, it will suddenly come back to bite them when Topsy-Turvy is used.
· The Dark- and Psychic-type Pokémon Malamar is the evolved form of Inkay and may have the strongest hypnotic force of any known Pokémon, helping it to bend opponents to its will. As a result, humans with ill intentions try to use Malamar to aid in their devious plots. Malamar can learn the Psychic-type move Hypnosis, which leaves opponents asleep and for the most part unable to take any actions during battle.
· The Fairy-type Pokémon Swirlix, which can only be captured in Pokémon X, comes with the new Ability Sweet Veil that keeps Pokémon on the same team from being left asleep in battle. Use Swirlix when facing Double and Triple Battles featuring Pokémon that know moves like Hypnosis. Swirlix can learn the new Fairy-type move Draining Kiss, which does damage to a target while also restoring some HP to the user. Battles will be much easier when you can attack an opponent with Draining Kiss and restore your Pokémon's health at the same time. Swirlix only eats sweets, causing its body to be sweet and sticky, like cotton candy.
· Only available for capture in Pokémon Y, the new Fairy-type Pokémon Spritzee emits a unique fragrance that causes anyone who smells it to fall under its spell. Spritzee can learn the Grass-type move Aromatherapy, which causes a Pokémon to exude a relaxing fragrance that heals its allies' status conditions, such as sleep and poison.
· It is now known that the previously announced Water-type Pokémon Clauncher can only be captured in Pokémon X, and the Poison- and Water-type Pokémon Skrelp can only be captured in Pokémon Y.
Introducing More People You'll Meet on Your Adventure through the Kalos Region
Professor Augustine Sycamore will entrust you and your friends with Pokémon and send everyone out on a Pokédex-filling adventure throughout the Kalos region. Along the way, players will encounter a mysterious organization called Team Flare. This strange and fashionable group shows up in cities around the Kalos region—what could their motive be?
Two new Gym Leaders have been introduced today, joining the Santalune City Gym Leader, Viola. Grant is a Gym Leader who excels at bike racing, mountain climbing, and many other sports. When they meet Grant, players will be facing a Trainer with a strong heart. Clemont, accompanied by his sister, Bonnie, is a young Gym Leader who loves science. Clemont gets extremely excited by the many devices he invents.
Also introduced is a new game feature called O-Powers that allows players the ability to easily power up Pokémon in their party and provides other benefits in Pokémon X and Pokémon Y. O-Powers are special powers that come in various forms and can be shared between players via the new Player Search System, or PSS. Sharing O-Powers with someone you've connected with locally or through the Internet is accomplished by tapping a player on the Touch Screen. Some O-Powers will temporarily increase a Pokémon's stats, while others make it easier to catch wild Pokémon or increase the Experience Points gained in battle.
For players of Pokémon X and Pokémon Y who want to add a little thrill to their Pokémon trades, Wonder Trade allows players to instantly trade a Pokémon for one offered by someone else in the world. The catch? Players will make the trade without knowing which Pokémon they'll get in return. You might receive an unexpected rare Pokémon or one that will add strength to your Pokémon party!

Clouderp is Swirlix, got it.
I'm still naming it Clouderp.
Also don't mind the name Pangoro. It reminds me of Gorons. :D
Professor Sycamore huh?
Well that's still a tree.
A rock climbing leader named Grant? Gee, I wonder what his type specialty is. :P

The Mewtwo in the movie is a officially a different one, created by different evil scientists.

That's... really all I can say.

Oh, well there's that then.
Ironic that the mewtwo created by evil scientists is good while the one that was created by good scientists was more maniacal (Except he mellowed out.)
Also amazing how they got the same exact result for a clone of Mew as before appearance wise.
I guess cloning technology in the Pokemon universe is very rampant. 8D
Also... EVIL TREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Have another gameplay trailer.
As my sig says...
Classic Mewtwo shot first.
And for the record, if you're a scientist on Team Rocket's payroll, you're classified as "evil." Thus, they were
both created by "evil" scientists. Also, in the original Japanese dub, Mewtwo wasn't "evil." He was portrayed closer to that of a confused child and even had childlike mannerisms. The English dub made him evil.
And for fun, here's the temper tantrum I threw on IRC...
Quote from: #eu<TrakNar> Okay, what the hell. So, I got some information on the new movie, and the Mewtwo in that one is indeed a different one created by different mad scientists.
<TrakNar> One of the biggest things about Mewtwo's story was that he was the ONLY FRIGGIN' ONE. Now, there are TWO??
<TrakNar> So, they couldn't use the one from twelve years ago who was already PATROLLING A CITY, they had to make a NEW ONE?!
<TrakNar> GRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!
* LO|Away has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds)
<Jello> I didn't even /know/ there was a new Mewtwo movie
<Jello> wtf.
<Jello> and somehow they create the exact same species
<Jello> and on that outrage, I think I'm off to bed
Well.... At least it's good that its another Mewtwo out there. I still favor the old one from 12 years ago. It would explain why this new mewtwo has one or two new forms. ;)
to be fair, back when there was only one Mewtwo, they also thought there were only 151 Pokemon.
and that was it
Now I want those two to meet. And duke it out.
see? at least there's the option for some Mewtwo v Mewtwo action.
I'm sure this is a much more suitable explanation for the existence of this new form than it being the same exact Mewtwo anyways. CAUSE NOW THEY CAN FIGHT EACH OTHER
My vote is on Classic Mewtwo. Classic Mewtwo shot first.
I WILL MAKE THIS A RALLYING CRY!
A move that reverses stat buffs? I can imagine how that can screw over anyone relying moves like Bulk Up or Calm Mind. If I get X/Y and a 3DS (whenever that happens), I'm naming my Fire starter...
[spoiler]Mozilla. 8D[/spoiler]
Pokemon Smash aired, and showed some gameplay footage of X/Y, as well as a preview of the coming X/Y arc in the anime.
Watch dem vids here. (http://pokebeach.com/#xy-gameplay-and-xy-anime-preview-on-pokemon-smash)
I wish there was a version of this without the people yelling at everything that happens. Seriously that's annoying, but the game looks great and I like Ash's new outfit, definitely better than the Unova outfit.
That music was great too. So damn good. :3
Well, things to note from the gameplay...
Diagonal running, unless I missed it from previous videos.
Also, PokeBall capture. Looks like the struggling decreases per shake, I really like this small detail. It just adds on to even more frustration when the Pokemon pops out on the third shake. 8D
Well we've known about the diagonal running (they confirmed it and even said they had to keep it 8-way since more made it trickier to track encounters in grass)
but yeah, that was great too. Any idea what move Honedge used there?
It might come in handy for the RP 8D

I am so tempted to use that in the RP, but the result would just be a very, very angry Mewtwo. And we know what happens when he gets angry.
MEWTWO SMASH!

I did say I might have missed that. :P
As for the move... It looks like Aerial Ace, or Night Slash... Or I might be totally wrong. XD
You'd think by now they would be able to track random encounters in grass using more than just eight directions. Though I'm sure there's good enough reasons for keeping the movement slightly restricted.
Oh yea. I totally forgot to mention one more thing about the gameplay video.
One of the presenters is secretly Sigma. *sage nods*

Huh. I could tell there was a disconnect between Mewtwo's facial expressions and what was actually happening during that bit where Ash freed the original Pokemon in the first movie. I just thought it was random.
Still, I like the dub's take on Mewtwo. His "seriousness" is a nice contrast to an otherwise overly-light series, and it also works well for a movie in which you're supposed to be sad when somebody allegedly dies.
I admit, I still find it strange as hell that Mew was supposed to be a huge ass in the Japanese version. I prefer the Dub's take on Mew too.

Yeah, Mewtwo asked what had happened in the Japanese dub. Obviously, he wasn't expecting something to blow up.
And blarg to accidentally hitting "post" rather than enter. :P
Yeah dub was alright.
I far prefer the Japanese version though, for the beginning part that was cut from international version, to the being in widescreen instead of full screen (seriously what was the purpose of that), and the MUSIC, holy [parasitic bomb] I can't stand the shitty pop music in the big fight scene and I don't like the sappy junk they used elsewhere.
But the voices were fine, give me a mix of both the english voices with the japanese music track and I'd be cool with that.
But I like Brother my Brother. :(

That part brings a lot of story with it, I can't understand why that wouldn't be in the VHS.
Because kids just want to see pokemon fight and story is just there?
Quote from: Cherrykorock on July 22, 2013, 03:00:35 AM
Because kids just want to see pokemon fight and story is just there?
Maybe so? But that's what the TV show is for since the movies don't really have that much fighting.
Which is why when I went to see this in a theater as a kid I was really confused! The story was odd, the characters were boring (more so than usual) and the dialogue...
that anti-violence speech just felt like it was half the movie!! XD
All I remember was seeing some badass looking Charizard and I wanted to see it. haha.
It's tucked away in the Special Features of Mewtwo Returns, so I have the English dub. Also, I own the original radio drama on which it was based (used to have the translation), so until that was animated, the radio drama covered that story in more detail.

The fox... Punching?
Oh [tornado fang] is it another Fire/ Fighting?
Just because it's punching doesn't mean it's a fighting-type attack, ya know. Plus, Fennekin can learn Psychic. That's probably a good sign. Also the rumors that stated we'd have Fairy-type and [parasitic bomb] also said he'd be Fire/Psychic, and those were proven true.
I don't think we have to worry. THE CHAIN IS BROKEN

Fairy was proven true.
Nothing about the types of the evolved starters yet.
True, but the fact remains, not all punch moves are Fighting type, and Fennekin can learn Psychic.
Those two things... are probably good indicators.
Fire/Psychic...
PYROKINESIS 8D
Victini is Psychic/Fire and Darmanitan (Zen Mode) is Fire/Psychic
so it wasn't until last gen we even HAD that combination... and since it's only a small percentage of Darmanitans that have Zen Mode, I'm gonna say it's rare anyways (cause Victini too).
'twould be a good combo for a starter
when are they going to put missingno back into this game
......WTF we got Megaforms/evolutions now, and Blaziken is involved? This isn't Digimon!
[spoiler]The next batch of CoroCoro information has been posted to Japanese forums and this batch showcases more information on the upcoming games Pokémon X & Y.

First off are various "Mega" forms of various Pokémon, specifically MegaBlaziken, MegaAbsol, MegaMawile, MegaMewtwo, MegaLucario and MegaAmpharos. They're all called "Mega". MegaMawile is Steel/Fairy-type, as is normal Mawile now. MegaMawile has the ability Huge Power. MegaBlaziken has Speed Boost. MegaLucario has Adaptability. MegaAbsol has the ability Magic Bounce
They "evolve" through a process called "Mega Evolution"

Needs bigger pic of that new Gym Leader.
Here you go.
[spoiler](http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd124/sakuraleic/corocoro8135_zpsc5214d4f.jpg)[/spoiler]
EDIT: It's not been officially confirmed but since it's on Corocoro.....
... So she has rollerskates too.
Well... Since it's from Serebii... We'll soon see.
Yeah this is crazy, also Ampharos's hair man, that's just......why?
MegaLucario confirmed for Smash 4.
and MegaMewtwo too!
actually MegaMewtwo that could change to normal Mewtwo at will would be a fun mechanic. Maybe MegaMewtwo could be his Final Smash form :P
Well, looking at the 6 evos at the moment...
They all seemed inspired by some form of fables.
... OK, I can't think of one for Mewtwo.
Oooooooh, now this has tickled my interest. MEGATYPHLOSION PERHAPS?!? 8D
You know I wouldn't be surprised they did this so the Dream World doesn't have to exist.
The thing is the Dream World... Oh wait, the PGL is "separate".
Darnit. >_>
If that event Torchic is anything to go by those things evolve using specific items so yeah Dream World stuff not necessary. Also Munna and Musharna so far aren't in the Kalos Pokedex so for now it supports my theory since you need Dream Smoke to access that anyway.
I see I wasn't he only one to make the Digimon connection with the "Mega" forms.
Will there be a MegaMew and a MegaCharizard then?
except there is no mega level in japan
in japan, it goes baby I > baby II > child > adult > perfect > ultimate
here we have fresh > in-training > rookie > champion > ultimate > mega
i don't think that it had any bearing on naming it that, although i can see the similarity. if anything, it's more similar to the x-virus evolutions.
Again, I point to Classic Mewtwo shot first.
This "Mega-volution" business is getting silly.

Well if it makes you feel better they're only for in battle and not permanent like forms always are....Though I still think they were watching way too much Digimon. Also it seems MegaAmpharos is Electric/Dragon? Well it still looks more Dragonish than Altaria.
I guess that Gym Leader who unlocks the forms will be the one Gym Leader that, if at all possible to still advance in the game regardless, I may never bother to beat. Or, I might simply not bother with the hideous Mega-volution.
Back in my day... being Legendary meant something.
Gym leaders aren't optional but yeah you can just not bother with Mega-volution.
Yay, a useless function for the game. Oh well, I used to play without using items, so I just had this huge inventory of stuff that I never used. A ton of Rare Candy, which I usually just sold, along with other items that I never used.
Some people do do Nuzlockes without items, or the reverse where they have to use items and no Pokemon Centers. The latter's probably done in gen 3 and 4 so you can grow Leppa berries.
I did Nuzlocke runs before it was cool. [/hipster]
Actually, no, it was more of a lousy style of gameplay and poor habits. I'd focus all the training on one Pokemon (my Pidgey), and I just never bothered with items because I simply didn't know how to use them properly. I've gotten better with the training portion, but I'm still lousy with items. Not entirely, as other games gave me more experience, but I don't use them as often as I should.

Huh.
So the Mega-volutions are like Castform's forms, and Cherrim's Sunny form...
Well, to be honest, I feel that's a bit... Wasteful on resources.
If it were me, make these Mega-volutions exclusive for Dream World Pokemon.
Makes the DW relevant again. >_>
I never used the Dream World so I'm fine with it.
It'll be like Origin Giratina or Sky Form Shaymin.
YOU NEED TO CARE IF YOU WANT TO COMPLETE THE MEDAL COLLECTION IN B2W2
... Which I need to start VERY soon. >_>
So... Item-held formes that are only seen in battles... Huh.
Whatever item causes the Mega-volution, Mewtwo isn't allowed to have it. I'll lock it in a closet. With all my other items. :P
And there's your skeleton in your closet. 8D
As long as it stays in the damn closet. 8D
Why is it that MegaMewtwo is the only one that looks hideous? I mean, all of the others follow the badass flowing hair theme, otherwise looking pretty well faithful to their originals.
Ah well, "Mega" form being temporary means there is a damn good shot of classic Mewtwo returning for Smash. I'll take it.
...now I just need to find out if there's a MegaDragonite. >.>
Since it was stated that not all Pokemon have a Mega-volution, makes you think who gets the treatment...
MegaFarfetch'd? MegaDunsparce? MegaLuvdisc?
I am trying to warm up to the Mega Evolutions. But, if classic Mewtwo returns for Smash IV, then that's awesome and I'll put up with the Mega-volution for the sake of kicking ass with Mewtwo again.
If anything MegaMewtwo might just be a final smash if he's in the game. Or maybe they'll make it like Samus and Zelda and have him able to switch forms, that would be interesting.
I still think that MegaAmpharos is the most ridiculous. He looks like a cross between a unicorn and Elvis Preseley which apparently equals part Dragon. XD
Mega Ampharos is FABULOUS~ 8D
I've seen game footage of Mega Mewtwo in action, and he looks pretty sweet in battle. Nice animations. It's just going to take a bit to get used to, us nerds being resistant to change and all...
Well, localization names have popped up.
As well as a new video:
Mega Evolution is... Mega Evolution.
That Gym Leader that knows about it is named Korrina, in Shalour City, where the Tower of Mastery is located to master this new evolution.
Hamtaro is now Dedenne, the bunny is Bunnelby and Gogoat's pre-evo is Skiddo.
Dedenne knows a new Electric-type move called Nuzzle.
The new ability, CHEEK POUCH, lets Pokemon gain the usual benefits of a held berry during battle, with the added bonus of regaining HP. Not sure how that would work with Oran and Sitrus Berries.
We know Blaziken Mega's with Blazikenite. Lucario does so with Lucarionite.
But the most important thing trainers want to know is the EVs.
- EVs (base stats) can now be seen through a meter.
- With Super Training, it's not your Pokemon's level that goes up but its base stats, the underlying values that define your Pokemon's skills in battle. As these base stats increase, your Pokemon can increase its HP, Attack, or other stats beyond those of another Pokemon of the same species at the same level. These base stats could be increased using items and other methods in previous Pokemon titles, but in Pokemon X and Pokemon Y, you'll be able to raise them far more easily than ever before, thanks to Super Training. This will lay the groundwork for more Pokemon Trainers to aim for the very top!
- Super Training can be played on the touch screen whenever you are not in battle or viewing an event. Your Pokemon will face huge Pokemon-shaped balloons, with each side trying to shoot balls into the other's goal.
- For a more casual way to help your Pokemon grow, use training bags for an easy boost to your Pokemon's growth with Core Training! You'll earn training bags when you complete Super-Training Regimens.

To be fair, Ampharos is known as Denryu in Japan, which translates to Electric Dragon if I'm not mistaken. So that part makes sense.
Also he's not really part Elvis, more like... part Fabio. I mean, dat flowing hair >0<
I said Elvis because I swear the top part looks like a pompadour. And yeah I guess the electric/dragon makes sense now.
Posted on: August 09, 2013, 08:58:00 PM
With the official Japanese site update, a small note came out regarding further clarification on the Mega Evolutions. Within this site, it details that with Mega Evolutions, you can only have one Mega Evolution Pokémon in battle. It's not known whether it's talking about all of the battle, or just within your team. This is presumably to allow for a specific balance in the Pokémon. It also clarifies that the Pokémon will revert after the battle has ended, not within it itself when the battle finishes. We're still not 100% on the specifics of this new process, but we'll keep you updated as more information comes
Well that's pretty fair.
Awwww, the revised type chart won't be revealed until the next issue...
And I want to know how to evolve Eevee into Sylveon.
Probably something more innovative than a Moon Stone, ahaha
Fairy Stone, obviously.
Oh, and apparently there's a Mega Kangaskhan, as was announced during the Pokemon World Championships.
Baby Kanga! 0v0
Thus far I'm loving this! 8D
Now all we need is a MegaGyarados and MegaMilotic so they can be part Dragon Type and own everything.
I still want MegaFarfetch'd, MegaDunsparce, MegaLuvdisc or MegaChatot.
I know I'm for this part the discussion, but...

Here's a still image. It has the ability Parental Bond, which allows it to attack twice in one turn. Presumably, this just means that the baby will have a weaker second hit for whatever attack Kangaskhan uses.

Torchic event is confirmed for US and UK.
Pre-ordered Y since one of the guys at work is getting X. Trainer will be Shinobu although I don't know which starter she'd go with.
I'm leaning towards Chespin just because I've haven't had a Grass Starter in forever.
I'd need to get a 3DS before I can play. 8D
Fennekin would be my starter. So cute.

If they do... I'll get the bundle. Both of them. To self-trade. >_>

I hope can get one of those bundles in my lifetime.
I don't want to do grass again. I've only done one water starter and fire starter in all my Pokemon games. But I'll wait to see what the final evos look like.
For me it has been Grass (I), Fire (II), Fire (III), and Water (IV). Maybe I'll for Fire again but like DarkWaltz said, I'll wait for the final evolution of the starters to see if that changes my mind.
Since I only had Yellow and Silver, it was Electric and Water for me. In Pokemon World Online, I'm using a Fire starter.
Heh. Fire starter. Fire fire. Hehhehheh. Fire is cool. </beavis>
I want to see an evil grass porcupine... So Chespin is likely to be chosen.
FIRE. FIRE BURNS. FIRE IS LIFE!!!
I'm gonna use Froakie.
Because I suspect he'll have a badass final form.
Szin has started with Fire since GEN 1 and he's not about to stop now...or EVER!!
Oh I used to start with fire... but I guess you could say my rage has since been extinguished.
That said I'll be using the [parasitic bomb] out of that Torchic.
Fire Red - Charmander
Heart Gold/Gold - Chikorita
Ruby - Mudkip
Diamond - Turtwig
White/ Black 2 - Snivy
Y - ???
I mean, frogs and ninja seem to go well in hand but Fennekin seems like the kind Shinobu would go for.
That and Pyre Fox is soooooooo adorable!
Gen1 - Squirtle
Gen2 - Totodile
Gen3 - Mudkip
Gen4 - Turtwig
Gen5 - Snivy
... I see a trend here. 8D
THAT TORCHIC ANIMATION
SO CUTE
I KNOW RIGHT? :3
Thankfully, the event is Wi-Fi, and lasts until 15 January 2014.

Mine will be Fire/Grass I think. It's like what my friend said, they're trying to dissuade you from choosing Fennikin.
I'll get all the starters... As usual at the start of the game.
Just need to find out which game to main...
... And how early can I start trading.
since it appears i forgot to mention this
For those in the US who've preordered this game at GameStop, some locations are actually giving out the preorder bonus incredibly early, as in right now.
The bonus? A double sided poster, one side showing Xerneas and Yveltal while the other (better) side shows the Kalos region. Though nothing is labeled, it's still cool to have.
The Mega evolutions also increase the stats of the Pokemon as expected. Lucario and Absol get an increase to their Attack, which is already ridiculous on Absol, and Mawile gets both Defense and Special Defense. I hope Absol get's a boost in Speed too.
On the official Pokemon XY page, it's stated that MegaAbsol gets Att and Spd boosts.

I cancelled my pre-order with gamestop for a cheaper one.
No regrets but since they technically never got rid of the pre-order in their system maybe I should see if I can get the poster.

Off-topic, next year's Pokemon World Championships are going to be held in DC. I'm half-tempted to go simply for the convention atmosphere, along with it being relatively local.
I'll be in DC early next year. Not for those though.
For MAGFEST
it shall be GLORIOUS
and all the streetpasses on X/Y too~
I should go to Magfest. The problem, though, is transportation. A place to stay, too. Granted, DC is local, but commuting is a bit of an annoyance.

But I wouldn't go unless it was at least 4 or more people. And of course I'd need some decent funds, which I don't have! :P
And I at least need to bring my best friend with me.
Whether or not I could go boils down to money, time, and transportation. Mainly money.

X/Y Updates from Pokemon Game Show
(http://www.serebii.net/rhyhorn.jpg)
You can ride a Rhyhorn!
(http://www.serebii.net/megaevo.jpg)
Mega Evolution is merely a tap away!
Both images are from a demo shown off during that show.
Quote from: SerebiiDuring the Pokémon Game Show, it was shown thanks to a picture from a Twitter user, that the method of Mega Evolution is through a simple button in the attack interface when your Pokémon has the Mega Stone attached to it. In the demo, you also ride on a Skiddo in a route and seen riding a Rhyhorn. In it, you also battle Professor Sycamore, where you use Mega Evolution, and battle Shauna & the other playable character. Fennekin has the moves Psybeam, Flame Charge, Fire Spin and Tail Whip. The Mega Evolution battle has you face off against Chandelure and Crobat with Mega Mewtwo. Helioptile has Tail Whip, Thundershock, Quick Attack & Parabolic Charge
In the demo, you start off with Alexa telling you to go see Professor Sycamore. On your way there, you battle the rival, with a time limit. Once you get to Professor Sycamore, he will give you Mewtwo and teach you about Mega Evolution, which is just done by a tap of a button, and he'll then battle you. After the battle, a video runs of the game. We're still getting more information so keep your eyes peeled on the site. Image thanks to raim2005
also if Fennekin can learn both Psybeam and Psychic, is there really still a chance he'll become Fire/Fighting?

Oh, let it be on Netflix. I'll get Netflix just for that!
Pokémon: The Origin trailer:
It was also revealed to be a be a special broadcast, not a weekly series. What a pity.
Huh I thought the Red design looked weird in the pictures because of the angle and didn't like it, but when I saw the trailer with more angles I actually like it.
A special boardcast that cramps all the plot into a single ep...
This will be good. bVd
Oh, I hope it comes out overseas with little to no change in the dub!
You know as I look at the character art for the protagonists in X and Y I noticed the jewel on those giant black bracelets has a symbol that looks similar to the Mega-Evolution symbol that shows up when you Mega-Evolve them. Maybe the bracelet has something to do with Mega-Evolution?
Okay so here is a video of the English Demo, notice that some of the Pokemon cries have changed a little especially Pikachu.
And a friend of mine from Facebook found this.
We at least know that Sylveon is at least a Special Defensive Tank since it took a STAB, Rain Dance, and Life Orb boosted Hydro Pump to the face and was still kicking in yellow. And since it can drain HP that makes it very deadly.
I half expected the cries to have changed over the years. In Pokemon World Online, it's a huge mix of Pokemon cries, some old, digitized noise from Gens I, II, and III, mixed with Lilipup's clear-as-day bark. It's jarring.
Yeah whenever I hear Pikachu's old Static sound in the other games I usually fine it sounds very odd.

I think it was because back then the Pikachu voice took a lot of [tornado fang]ing memory too back then, kind of like the Sega jingle having the most amount of memory in the old Sonic games. Also my friend was slightly crushed when he saw that Malimar might be very fragile.
The cries have been digital soundboard noises for years. The reason because the game originated on a GB cart, which had limited sound capabilities. It's 2013 now. We have new technology now to have actual voice overs for pokemon battle cries. Can't they change it for something else if not Anime cries?
For any talking Pokemon, they could just do grunts, like Mewtwo used in Melee. That worked out fine. But for the rest, splicing in sound bites from the anime sounds viable, or just throw in a varied range of grunts. Grunts work for anything.
There's going to be a Pokemon direct tomorrow though I don't know the exact time it will be because I'm not good with timezones.

Quote=Pokémon Bank is Cloud Storage app for 3DS. It allows for 100 boxes to be stored on the internet. Pokémon transporter includes connectivity to DS games. Pokémon can be sent to the cloud and then transferred to Pokémon X & Y. Poké Transporter comes when you purchase Pokémon Bank.
=The cloud storage idea came during the development of Pokémon Crystal.
=Pokémon Bank requires an annual fee (500 yen a year in Japan)
=You will receive Kanto Starters from Sycamore. They Mega Evolve
=Special Red & Blue Nintendo 3DS XL have been announced for North America and Europe. They will be released on September 27th
= Mega Venusaur has the ability Thick Fat, Mega Charizard has the ability Drought and Mega Blastoise has the ability Mega Launcher which boosts its moves.
= It also confirmed that you will need to obtain a bracelet called the Mega Ring that holds a mysterious stone called a Key Stone. The Trainer's Key Stone resonates with the Mega Stone held by his or her Pokémon.
= It was also revealed that Pokémon Bank & Pokémon Transporter prevent hacked Pokémon from transferring and work with multiple copies of the games.
= Pokémon Bank, and with it Pokémon Transporter, for sale in Japan on December 25th for 500¥ a year with a trial until January 31st where you have to pay afterwards
Some stuff from Serebii, not too fond of the concept of a subscription based Pokemon cloud box, but its cheap enough that it could be feasible.
Fennekin and Squirtle for me~ :cookie:
Two starters? Awwww that's just cruel...CAUSE I WANT BOTH OF THE FIRE STARTERS!!!!
Man, that's gonna be tough. I probably should go the Vixy route with Fennekin & Squirtle, especially since Mega Blastoise looks AH-MAAAAAAAZING. But we'll see.
Meanwhile, I highly approve of the PokeBank/Transporter thingy!
Don't forget the downloadable Torchic. You could have 3 fire types.
Fennekin may look cool, but I'm going to use the Torchic as my fire guy. I'll likely pick Chespin for my Gen VI starter just cause he knows Rollout and that move is gdlk. That leaves Squirtle for Gen I.
If the could app is free for a limited time, that's all I'll need. I'll just put all of my Pokemon there and port them over. But I wonder how they determine a Pokemon is hacked. Cause I do have some obtained by dubious means, but most of them do have legit IDs. Like the Arceus I have is fateful encounter, but I'm pretty sure it was created that way and not gotten from Nintendo. The only thing I don't have "legit" is Kyogre.
Technically related but you can get Shiny Gen IV Legendaries via gamestop for the coming month.
Dialga is available now, Palkia is available after the 8th, and Giratina is sometime later this month.

Why does GameStop get everything, I'm not in America I don't have a GameStop.
Europe is getting it too.
But that's it.
I can't even get any Legendaries due to my lack of games and a system. I doubt they'll have any for Pokemon World Online. :P
I'm half-tempted to get a few Pokemon Rumble U figures on the off-chance that I ever get a Wii U and the game.

Such a hard choice
I'm going for Mega Blastoise since I have the option of Torchic.
I don't know who I'd choose. Mega Charizard looks awesome.
He would look even more awesome with...
stripes. [eyebrow]
I'm going with squirtle.
as for my Kalos starter, haven't decided yet.
If I wasn't starting with Fennekin, it'd be an easier choice. I shooooould go with Squirtle....BUT IT'S CHARIZARD!!
Go with Torchic it'll make your life easier.
I WANT HIM TOO!!!
I JUST LOVE FIRE STARTERS WAY TOO MUCH!!!
Trade with people.
Oh I will. I have Lou for that, plus a friend at work is going to get the game as well.
I'm conflicted. I'm already getting Froakie and Torchic, but I don't really want Bulbasaur...
Also I plan on getting a Litleo, so if I got Charmander then...
Ah screw it I'll get Squirtle. I had Mega Blastoise's design pegged when discussing the idea with a friend a few weeks ago.
Hmm... I wonder if Mega evolution is gonna be available for all fully evolved pokemon...
They already said that not all Pokemon will get a Mega Evolution.
Well, fully-evolved isn't ALL pokemon. Just the ones that can't evolve further. But, then again, even if all fully-evolved pokemon don't get mega evolution, they still better have a large number of them, at least 1 generation's worth of fully-evolved pokemon, getting it, otherwise there's not much point to it other than saying 'Hey! These popular pokemon can go super saiyan!'
I'm probably not going to get my Mega Typhlosion.
:(
I doubt they'd deny starters Mega-Evolutions.
I'd doubt they'd make Mega-Evolutions of more obscure pokemon like Smeargle though.
what would mega smeargle be though?
would he have a drawing tablet? would he be a sculptor or something?

Has it been mentioned if you'll even choose your Kanto starter? I bet it'll be predetermined to complement your Unova starter, similar to the monkeys in BW

Kalos starter, not Unova. :B
Also the fact that we've already been shown this screen
(http://serebii.net/direct93.jpg)
seems to indicate that we do get a choice.
Derp, I'm too confused by all this
So, October 19th, on Cartoon Network. Genesect and the Legend Awakened
I can get CN on Netflix, right? Or, will I need to schedule some time with someone with cable?
It's probably better to schedule it.
Time to schedule going to my grandma's just to watch a movie! :D
Too bad it's not the original Mewtwo, I'm sure Mabel would have loved it.
Indeed. I'll make sure to grab it on DVD anyway, as Mabel enjoys pretty colors.
No sexy baritone, though. :(
Crap load of information this time (http://pokebeach.com/2013/09/corocoro-leaking)
We finally know strengths and weaknesses of Fairy, the middle evolution of the starters, some new Pokemon and Mewtwo has another Mega Evolution. The one we've been seeing is exclusive to Pokemon Y while the new one is exclusive to Pokemon X and is Psychic/Fighting with Steadfast. MegaMewtwo Y has Insomnia.
Also MegaGarchomp.
2 MORE TRUE DINOSAUR FOSSIL POKEMON
I want the T-Rex.
I kind of want the Ice/Rock one.
Good lord, this game has so much stuff already!!
AND OMG, I LOVE FENNEKIN'S 2ND FORM! 0v0
And Steel seems to have lost it's resistance to Ghost and Dark which means that Metagross and Bronzong are seriously nerfed. Maybe I should think about training a Bisharp.
Chespin is becoming more and more like a Hari Harry. 8D
I don't get removing those resistances for Steel. Steels are known for their walling...
Plus Hydreigon gets 4x weakness from Fairy-types. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
I don't know maybe they just wanted to nerf Metagross in particular.
We should go...
FAIRY HUNTING *grabs a coffee... I mean Koffing*
I might even consider raising an Escavalier.
But yes we must go fairy hunting so we can combat the fighting types.

Losing the resistance to ghost I can understand, but to dark, definite no. I still didn't like bite and crunch being dark attacks. This nerf once again shows fangs can penetrate metal too.

Don't you still have a Salamence?
I actually like X form M2! It looks badass! :)
Unlike the bottle opener Y form. :P
So Pokemon is officially Digimon now, right?
Hmm..... Maybe......?
Pogimon?
Dikemon?
Pokgimon?
Digkemon?
Well in any case, pretty much. Seems like the Pokemon Company IS in fact running out of ideas after all. ;P
Okay, the X form doesn't look too bad.
I like it.
I might actually...
draw...
it.

Also, been waiting for an reaction.
TBH, The X form looks more male-like, and the Y looks more female-like, in a way.
Which, in terms of chromosomes, is a bit backwards. :P
The biggest issue I had with the Y form was the head-tail. It just... didn't... make... sense.
Though, this has made me wonder...
Does Classic Mewtwo get the X form? Will we see it in all its badass awesomeness?
glad i was already getting X, considering Mega Mewtwo X.
also glad that the rumor that fairy was weak to poison held up. this gives me even more reason to believe that Litleo (Fire/Normal) will evolve into some sort of manticore (Fire/Poison).
Unless they are still keeping it a secret, looks like we're not getting a movie with the X form. Since they were so hard at work on the movie with the Y form. Though this would have been interesting to see a movie of the X form in action.
TBH, I didn't like the can opener head thingy either. And the fingers and feet were just... Ugly. XP
Well... New series, new special episode? Who says that it needs to be a movie? Just do a super-long episode and I'd be happy.
The bottle-opener hanger headphone band, while it was a bit odd, it didn't bother me quite as much. I could've lived with it, as long as the damn tail stayed where it was--on the butt. The feet and hands were... weird.
Well, I know that if I pick up the game, I'm getting X.

I thought it was a SS3 homage! 8D
Yea... The head-tail doesn't make sense to me either..... I don't know why they wanted to try to reverse it. It only makes sense if the original design has it first. But flipping a tail from it's origin point in another direction is just..... seems wrong. :(
Now.... if only I can find that joke article about the origin of this.
Quote from: Sakura Leic on September 11, 2013, 07:27:06 PM
Don't you still have a Salamence?
But Hydreigon is cooler! D:
Not to disappoint anyone, but I think our classic Mewtwo is probably still lost or in hiding somewhere from society. While the new forms even X form is a new Mewtwo as well...... Though originally he was one of a kind back in Gen 1 was still a "thing". Now that there are more pokemon, it's possible he got cloned again somewhere. As long as they has dna samples, I'm sure "someone" was able to re-create another one somewhere. Which could explain there being more than 1 form mewtwo. Otherwise, we could go with "Alternate Universe" theory where X is universe 1, and Y is universe 2, where each universe has only 1 mewtwo, with one form.
Or Mewtwo cloned himself to make him a species.
I'll believe it when I see an official confirmation.
So from the second evo starters.... yeah Shinobu's definitely going with Froakie. He got my eye first. I also want the ice/rock brontosaurus looking one.

Sorry Mirb but he's not a Manticore or Fire/Poison.
http://pokebeach.com/2013/09/litleos-evolution-pyroar-revealed
Oh well. Still cool looking. :D
A friend of mine is convinced that this guy is a middle evolution but my god he's huge!
Well I stand by my reasoning for a Fire/Poison type.

TBH, The X form looks more male-like, and the Y looks more female-like, in a way.
I don't really see them as being male/female so much as I see them being buff/child.
Yeah, I'm going with Mewtwo X as well. His tail and thighs could stand to be beefier, but otherwise, he looks cool.
Mega Garchomp bothers me. I'm gonna be royally ticked if I don't see a Mega Dragonite somewhere, is all I can say.
Mega Charizard...dammit, I actually did want to try that new fire starter, but now I'm torn.
I'm still royally ticked that Fairy is freaking IMMUNE to Dragon. Dragon really should be super-effective against something other than itself before such an idea was ever considered. None too fond of the resistance to Bug either since that's already something of a niche offensive type as it is.
And, honestly, for any claim of "game balance" to hold water, any new type should be not very effective against Ice. That is the worst defensive type ever... I am, however, glad to see that they are trying to give Steel some offensive reason to exist. Even in spite of the Ghost/Dark loss.
I was more pissed at the Super Effective against Dark, seriously it should have been the opposite!
I hadn't considered that since I rarely use Dark. Thematically, I like seeing Fairy come out on top of that one, but game-balance-wise I agree there's an issue. Dark is a virtual clone of Ghost offensively and is far less valuable than Ghost defensively, ESPECIALLY with how much the Fighting type was buffed in the last gen.
Also were you talking about Steel being effective against Ice before?
With Fairy strong against Dark (its moves are super-effective against Dark and it only takes half-damage from it), this puts Xerneas in a superior position type-wise over Yveltal.
Well that's not new to the series. Kyogre beats Groudon.
I'm aware of this, just pointing it out.
I like how Pyroar's mane has the fire kanji in it
Quote from: Sakura Leic on September 13, 2013, 05:37:28 AM

No, I was talking about Steel being effective against Fairy. It makes Steel strong against something that Fighting isn't, for a change.
You know what I may do today?
I may draw Mega Mewtwo X.
I may draw some musculature and skeletal studies of the form.
I may scan those when I'm finished.
I may also upload those and post them.
Anyone want to see anatomical studies? 8D

Hi Hi. So I totaly can't wait to get Y. Braixen is ssssoooo adorable though Frogadier is too. So many choices I want them all lol. *spaz queen lol_

DO NOT QUESTION ME! *goes crazy-er*
Seriously the game is in 3D, there is going to be at least 100 more Pokemon added to the already massive number of 649, the trainer can be customized, there's Mega Evolutions, there's still a lot of gender differences and new forms, we can ride on Gogoats and Ryhorns, and then there's the online features and finally the Pokebank.
I don't think we have to worry about Memory.
Meh. Can't argue with that.
HOWEVER!
I still say the hairstyling will be limited.
Because thinking of all the different effects each hairstyle will grant, it will get tiring.
It says you can unlock more hair styles the more you groom it, and I love me some customizations.

Yeah admittedly I don't like Poodles that much either, or rather I don't like when people shave them. They look better unshaven.
From everything so far Pokemon X and Y are going to be amazing if not one of the best to come out.

I think it's so they don't have to worry about the shedding.
Last I checked, poodles don't shed. At least I was told that they don't shed.
Every time I see them saved for that it has always been for a dog show.
That's called a show cut. Most poodles only have puppy cuts, in which the fur is trimmed short, but not shaved off. The poodle is still very fluffy, but it's a uniform fluffy.
I still say they look like giant pipe cleaners.

copypasting a post from another forum for ease of use
So the news came out officially in English now. Here's the differences between what CoroCoro revealed and what we know now.
-Chespin's evolution is Quilladin
-Fennekin becomes Braixen
-Froakie evolves into Frogadier
-The poodle is Furfrou; if you don't keep it groomed consistently its hair will grow too long and return to its default appearance
-The T-Rex is Tyrunt and is found via the Jaw Fossil
-The diplodocus is Amaura and is found via the Sail Fossil; it's ability is now known as Refrigerate
-The Psychic cat is Meowstic
-Team Flare's 5 scientists are Celosia (purple hair), Aliana (orange hair), Bryony (green hair), and Mable (blue hair). Xerosic, the lone male of the group, has red goggles and hair
(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/64835841/pkmn/flare1a.PNG)(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/64835841/pkmn/flare2b.PNG)
-The actress Karune is to be called Diantha.
(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/64835841/pkmn/dianthab.PNG)
More type changes have been announced as well, though these more pertain to certain moves and status effects
-Grass-type Pokémon are no longer affected by Leech Seed, Spore, Stun Spore, PoisonPowder or Sleep Powder
-Electric-type Pokémon can no longer be Paralyzed
-Ice-type Pokémon can no longer be Frozen
-Ghost-type Pokémon are no longer affected by moves that trap them such as Mean Look
oh, and since it hasn't been mentioned here, Litleo evolves into Pyroar. (Male on left, Female on right)

lastly, here's a preview of some alternate appearances you can use via the salons and boutiques.

Gaaaaaah, I need a 3DS! ;^;
A 3DS costs about $170, unless you get a 2DS which is $130.
Almost as much as my tablet.
Oh, it is very tempting... I'm trying to save money, though. Celebration VII is in 2015, and it's going to cost me.
If only the 2DS can fold onto itself. >_>
Interesting that his normal appearance has purple eyes. His Y form has red eyes, and his X form has blue eyes. I wonder if there's anything that could explain this. Though I haven't noticed with any other pokemon eye colors changing during evolution.
Also, more X form fan art has been appearing. :)

The plastic is raised so the only thing that can break them is if you drop something on them.
And purses and messenger bags are better than pockets anyway.
I'd prefer a sleeker clamshell than a big, clunky dual-screen thing. It looks unwieldy.
Also, it can't fold.

Interesting that his normal appearance has purple eyes. His Y form has red eyes, and his X form has blue eyes. I wonder if there's anything that could explain this. Though I haven't noticed with any other pokemon eye colors changing during evolution.
Also, more X form fan art has been appearing. :)
Simple explanation: Eye color coincides with version color.
So, 2 new Pokemon are revealed, both evolutions to the new Fossil Pokemon. (http://pokebeach.com/2013/09/evolutions-aurorus-and-tyrantrum-revealed-new-xy-tid-bits)
Amaura evolves into Aurorus.
(http://img543.imageshack.us/img543/1106/g2z7.jpg)
While Tyrunt evolves into Tyrantrum.
(http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/51/wmuz.jpg)
(http://img443.imageshack.us/img443/2537/0okq.jpg)
Besides that, new info and character art for the XY anime. (http://pokebeach.com/2013/09/new-xy-anime-trailer-character-art-and-descriptions)
Looks like the Team Rocket Trio is still at it... And... Giovanni?
Ash also seemed to have met Serena (female protag) when young.
oh yeah, i want a tyrunt even more now :D
That's gonna be a tough call. I REALLY like Aurorus' design.
I wonder if Tyrantrum has a taste for lawyers.
Proper fullart of Tyrantrum from Pokebeach:
(http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/6751/xexh.jpg)
DEFINITELY choosing him.
I just like that these are the first fossils that actually LOOK like dinosaurs (Aerodactyl notwithstanding since technically speaking it isn't a fossil). I never thought Cranidos/Rampardos really fit the bill, honestly.
Giovanni is very... dapper in his new duds. He looks better in suits, rather than whatever the hell he was wearing in Best Wishes. That uniform was ugly and simply not Giovanni.
Like a lot of people had speculated up til now, X and Y will only 3D in "certain cinematics and battle sequences." (http://www.siliconera.com/2013/09/19/pokemon-x-and-pokemon-y-only-use-3d-effect-in-cinematics-and-battles/)
A lot of people seem to be upset by this but personally I don't care, I never use 3D anyway.
Yeah same here, I don't really like the 3D myself.

That outfit was strange.
Also, it seems like they are trying to make Giovanni relevant in the anime, ever since Best Wishes.
Huh.
I'm looking forward to that!
[tornado fang] YEAH MEWTWO
Reeeeaaaaally looking forward to this now!
Dat Giovanni.
Wonder if this is going to be a male VA or female VA mewtwo. Because I can only see him with a guy VA for some reason. Looks interesting though. I hope they bring the anime/movie over here. :)
MALE.
BECAUSE CLASSIC.
Quickman read my mind.
I just can't picture Mewtwo with anything but a low, shadowy, grimdark voice. It was a sharp contrast to the rest of the show, but that's what I loved so much about him as a character to begin with.
More information will be revealed on the 25th but for now some more rumors from Pokebeach.
[spoiler]Trusk is a Grass/Rock boar Pokemon with long green tusks coming out of its mouth. He is gruff, has grey skin, and features green leaf-like ears. It has an "adorable" pre-evolution with tiny tusks and a leaf at the end of its tail.
A Normal/Poison porcupine Pokemon named Quillom can be found quite early in the game in the forest. It has white skin with light purple quills. He has a Poison-type quill attack which damages and has a high chance of poison.
A Ghost-type spider Pokemon is found in caves. It is dark gray with blue spots and multiple light grey eyes. It has a feint light blue mist around its abdomen. The source doesn't remember the spelling of its name, but says it was something like "Apparachnid." He thinks it may have an evolution.
There is a Ground-type badger Pokemon that is dark brown with black stripes going up its face. It knows Slash and a new biting move.
Reconfirmation that Froakie's final evolution is Water/Fighting. It looks similar to a poison dart frog. The dark blue now takes over its body almost entirely. There are a few even darker (almost black) spots on his sides and face and it gains more of the bubble foam around its neck and down the back. It's also a bit bulkier. It uses its hind legs a lot and has kicking attacks.
Bunnelby evolves into a Ground/Dark type rabbit that is larger and much rounder. Its color scheme is reversed, with the dark brown now being the prominent color. It can be found in caves. It is useful because you can get it early in the game and use it to evolve Pancham into Pangoro.
Helioptile has an evolution. It is bipedal with a second yellow triangle on its face. Its ears become more jagged and it looks meaner. On its back are what look like spikes with jagged parts at the very top. It can learn a new attack called Thunder Roll, where it rolls up like a wheel and strikes the opponent.
Reconfirmation that Meowstic has a pre-evolution named Espurr. There is no gender differentiation until it evolves. It is mostly white, similar to the female version, with cuter eyes and a single puffy tail. It has a little patch of fur under its head (similar to its evolutions). The fur is dark blueish with little tufts of white in it.
Other Pokemon that are now Fairy-type: the Chansey evolution line, Dunsparce, the Clefairy line, and Togepi's line.
Fairy Dust is a new move that will randomly cause either Paralysis, Poison, Sleep, or Burn.
Like Magneton, Wailmer is part of one of the Super Training Facility games.
Team Flare makes an appearance right at the beginning of the game. On the TV in your house, one of its members talks about fashion and how your Pokemon should match your style. Team Flare's signature music has an eerie accordion sound to it in the opening sequence.
The outfit your character wears at the start is colored to match what you've set as your favorite color in your 3DS settings. It can be changed easily though.
The opening cinematic is in 3D. (Have to mention this since most of the game isn't in stereoscopic 3D. :p) It starts off with Yveltal's cry, which wakes you up. You sit up in your bed. It then pans and there is a shot of your city. Yveltal's shadow goes over it. After that there is some other shots of your town. You seem amazed that you saw Yveltal. It then shows generic in-game shots like you entering a forest with your friends, selecting your starter, running through a cave, etc. After that it shows Sycamore welcoming you. You are standing outside of his lab at the time, then he takes you inside. It then shows him showing you three Poke Balls which leads into a transformation video where it shows all three Kanto starters evolving to their final forms, and then the three of them Mega Evolving. It's a really cool cinematic. The video ends with Yveltal flying with the sun behind him, leading in to the title screen. Team Flare is also shown at some point in the sequence.
On the title screen you can use the analog joystick on your 3DS to change the angle at which you see Xerneas/Yveltal.[/spoiler]
Garchomp's voice... XD
I was weird out by Fenekin's voice.
And you know what I wished the anime would do, actually show more of the new bad guys than just less than 10 episodes. But I know it's not going to happen here.
New Pokemon revealed. (http://pokebeach.com/2013/09/honedges-evolution-revealed-doublade)
Mirby... It's calling out to you...
I am aware.
Being able to wield Steve in the RP as I was means I have potential for badassery later in the RP cause of Doublade here. :D
Just need to get through this damn trial.
And I still want to pull more pranks and give Giovanni an afro.
Given Suppercut mentioned that his nets are limited, we need a replacement Phoenix again.
Well I can't do it since I've never played the games and haven't been to court.
Unless Mirby wants a go at it again?
Umm...
Err...
Uhh...
*flees*
Yeah I'll take that as a no way in hell.
Someone needs to take Phoenix! D:

According to Pokemon's Facebook post, it will air on Pokemon TV. Time to get that app!
BUT IS IT FREE
I JUST DOWNLOADED IT
LOOKED FREE
HMM I WILL WAIT TILL NOVEMBER THEN

WELL THE, I WILL JUST HAVE TO USE THE WEB BROWSER VERSION THEN
I doubt they would limit the show to iOS release. They better show it elsewhere, like on high def TV's like they've done with all the other TV shows and movies.

Yes, they are obviously going to distribute the show DIRECTLY TO OUR TELEVISIONS and not to any TV networks or anything. -AC
My post was just talking about the Pokemon TV app being only for iOS and Android.
It seems likely that they would show it on CN, but I haven't seen an announcement for it. I've only seen the FB announcement for it showing on Pokemon TV.
.....Apparently Duoblade can learn Sacred Sword.....It can [tornado fang]ing learn Sacred Sword. -AC
Makes sense as it's a, well, sword.
Sakura's unhappy because Sacred Sword used to be the signature move of the Musketeers.
And it's like a Physical Aura Sphere and it can ignore Defense Boosts. A regular Pokemon should not have a move like that.
And before you know it, it can also learn Secret Sword. 8D

Oh it better [tornado fang]ing not. B(
It will be a god-moding Pokemon.
It's one thing to be powerful, legitimately so. It's another thing to be a blatant god-mode Sue.
Not necessarily, we don't know it's stats.
Given it's Ghost/Steel, one can safely assume its def stat to be significant.
Here. Let's forget about the possible god-moding implications with Pikachu being pimp-slapped by Pikachutwo...

It was on my clipboard. I had to dump it somewhere.
Technically a couple squabble. :P
Though, should the police get involved? It is domestic violence.
The male is taking it like a man. No need for Bitchy Jenny to crack under this Pokemon too.
So there appear to be some stores that broke street date, so some people have X or Y already and are dumping info. So be careful where you go on the internet lest you want to be spoiled.
O:
I wanna be spoiled! *yoinks*

Why would they do that?
I mean its good to know people have copies already but holy [tornado fang] that's really shitty of them to break street date so early. There's 11 [tornado fang]ing days left till the release they could at least wait until the 10th.
Wow that's crazy, it sucks that Serebii won't be covering those leaks since they got into legal trouble before regarding massive leaks.
I might be avoiding Bulbapedia for a while, it seems.
Quote from: Sakura Leic on September 27, 2013, 07:30:02 AM
Oh it better [tornado fang]ing not. B(
Sakura, you should be more worried about the fact that it will probably be able to learn pretty much any attack with the word "slash", "blade", or "cut" in it(which is a much larger group of moves than one would expect, and most of them have a high crit ratio). And let's face facts, Game Freak is likely going to make an elemental trio of blade attacks(Fire, Ice, Thunder) for the occasion as well, because why not(I actually do expect them to do so at some point, and a generation where they have an actual sword for a mon to work with is as good a time as any). And as a Ghost type that has a Pokedex entry that says that it can suck the life of whoever wields it like a sword, the chances are more than good that it'll have a life draining move as well(and likely a new physical Ghost type version at that, unless they decide that Giga Drain and its ilk would qualify as "absorbing life force from others" in that sense(I had always considered said series of Grass type moves to be the equivalent of a blood sucking move, rather than a pure "life force drain"))...
Anyways, it could be far worse. Duoblade could be able to learn Guillotine(three guesses as to why that would be worse, and the first two don't count).

Another Mega Evolution has been revealed...
[spoiler]
IT'S MEGA CHARIZARD X
The previously revealed Mega Charizard was the Y version.
From the official Pokemon XY website (http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/mega_pokemon/), Mega Charizard X FINALLY becomes Fire/Dragon. Its Attack stat is increased significantly, and has the ability Tough Claws, which raises the power of moves that make direct contact, like Dragon Tail, which it can learn.[/spoiler]
Seriously this is badass, I need to find someone with X who is willing to trade the item to me.
Although that does mean it can be hit by Earthquake now. :P
[spoiler]Also, the item used is Charizardite X (obviously).[/spoiler]
Is every Mega gonna get an X and Y variant? If So, X seems to be getting the better end of the deal so far. 8D
Who knows?
But yea, X does look like the game to main at the moment...
Hm, the good thing about this new Mega Evolution: Charizard is no longer 4x weak to Rock.
In exchanged he can be hit by Earthquake and is weak to Fairy, guess that's a good balance.
Quote from: Pyro on October 02, 2013, 04:05:28 PM
Hm, the good thing about this new Mega Evolution: Charizard is no longer 4x weak to Rock.
He's still 2x weak though, and it loses its immunity to Spikes, and Toxic Spikes.
It seems that Swirlix and Spritzee's evolutions were revealed, though I can't post pictures since I'm on the phone. Both are still pure Fairy, Swirlix's looks like a cupcake while Sprizee's, as one of my friends put it, the result of a stripper and a furby having a one night stand.
Posted on: October 02, 2013, 06:54:08 AM
Also according to that picture on Serebii Mega Charizard X has an appearance in Pokemon the Origin.....what?! :o

Correction on the part about being weak to fairy! Fire is resistant to it! So Mega Charizard X takes normal damage from Fairies.

SON OF A...
Yeah that's an appropriate reaction.
It's getting to a point where I might have to get both games
I can probably trade for the item, there has to be someone who has X, chose Charmander, and prefers Y.
I thought Pokemon: Origins was based on the Red and Blue/Green versions of the game... why are they adding in Pokemon from X and Y? XD
Well it's advertisement, but still... shouldn't they stay faithful to the original source material?
Though I AM highly interest in seeing the Mega forms animated... but Mega Charizard Y is shafted for the anime?
I'm getting both versions, but I do love Mega Black Charizard but Mega War Charizard is what I'm getting.
Can we see those screenshots Quickman? I like to see fighting Mewtwo in action!
Because it's the rule of being a badass and Red is a badass.
I'll link to those screenshots this evening. I'm using the iPad currently, and it lacks the lovely right-click menu that I love.
So I just learned that the Mewtwo in the new Genesect movie is not the same Mewtwo that we know.
So there are two Mewtwos.
[tornado fang] it, anime team. You had one job. ONE JOB. AND YOU BOTCHED IT.
We've known that for a while.
Classic Mewtwo shot first.
Quote from: Quickman on October 03, 2013, 12:03:53 AM

QuoteSo I just learned
BUT WHY CAN'T IT BE THE CLASSIC/ORIGINAL?!
I DON'T NEED A MEWTWO WiTH A GIRLY VOICE!
WAAAAH!
Quick! Throw in MSB and MR and feel better! Reclaim Classic Mewtwo!
You know, the "Y" Mega evolutions seem to be stats-wise more souped up versions of the normal 'mans (same Type and increase to Special Attack for Mewtwo and Charizard, both are primarilly special attacking types), while the X evolutions are more curve-bally (new Types and increase to physical Attack). I already pre-ordered X on account of Mewtwo looking more badass, but I get the feeling that raising a Pokemon expected to go "Mega X" the same as one would raise the normal 'man (EV-wise) isn't going to work as well.
Here. Instead of screenshots...
[spoiler=HAVE THE ENTIRE BATTLE!]

Holy...! That was the most EPIC Pokemon battle of all! Nothing in the anime starring Ash was that monumental before! Heck the Mewtwo from Pokemon: Origins seems WAY more kickbutt than the Movie Mewtwo in terms of fighting! Though Movie Mewtwo still had great character development, Origins Mewtwo seems like a very aggressive wild Pokemon with lack of talking (though it's possible it could talk, haven't see Origins yet).
But seriously... we NEED a Pokemon anime series like this! Pokemon: Origins is the best Pokemon show ever! Even if it was a short special movie.
Red is awesome as well! Does even more cool things than Ash... I wish, since Ash is the main character for the entire series (reminds me that Sora is for Kingdom Hearts no matter what (well main numbered games)) though could stand to keep all the things Ash learned in this previous journeys and make him mature as well... but not for a fresh start they "reset" Ash's battle skills and Pokemon levels. It's kinda insulting.
Anyway I CANNOT wait until Pokemon: Origins airs in the US! ^_^
Posted the video to a friend who didn't believe me when I said Mega Charizard X was fight Mewtwo, waiting for a response now.
I shared it on Wookieepedia. Floyd was very pleased.

The cupcake with the tongue hanging out alll goofy! XD
Oh god.
Oh god oh god oh god.
Memories of some in-joke just came flooding in.
I must share.
*ahem*
Some years ago, we made some goofy movie with a friend about Posh Spice dating a Furby. When the other Furbies found out, they made a fuss. One of them said in this quasi-Peter Lorre voice...
"But... Interspecies relationships are... il-LEE-gal..."
So, yes. That popped into my head when you mentioned the stripper/Furby lovechild.
MAKE THE MEMORIES STOP!
I couldn't breath! XD
Well NOW I have to name that thing Posh Spice! THANKS! XD
I'm leaning towards Lady Gaga.
Oh my god... What new spore of madness have I wrought upon thee? XD

Anyway I'm getting both versions, X for Female Protagonist and Y (my main) for Male Protagonist.
And a question for you Quickman... which Mewtwo do you think is the most badass? Origins Mewtwo (from the Pokemon: Origins special TV movie) or Movie Mewtwo (from the original Pokemon anime with Ash as the main character)?
Classic Mewtwo and Origins Mewtwo are pretty even tier to me, but Origins Mewtwo is certainly more crazed.
As for me, I have my sights on X. I may buy it before I get a 3DS.
I'm probably still sticking with Y... as I really like Y.
BUT LOOK AT HIM. LOOK AT BLUE FIRE BLACK FIRE DRAGON CHARIZARD!!!!! 0v0

Well, Origins Mewtwo, if they're going by the games, has been living alone in a cave rather than experiencing people. It kinda makes sense that he'd be a little off his rocker.

Classic Mewtwo was already unhinged, but he also had manners. Though, it would be a fun project to write up a case study and diagnose him... perhaps if I ever take another psych class...

Didn't Red have a stone on him that was glowing when he got close to Charizard and he Mega Evolved to Mega Charizard X? Though why it did it there makes me wonder if that's why you asked about the "great bonds, great power" thing.
And the stone is clearly Charizardite X... It even showed the DNA logo... It should not appear in a Gen1 game.
Sigh... I think the great bonds = great power will be used..

Makes me wonder... if you trade a Charizard from the X version with Charizardite X attached to it and bring him over to the Y version would Charizard Mega Evolve into Mega Charizard X? Or would it change to Y because of the version they are in?
Last I checked, version-exclusive Mega Evolutions can be traded between versions with the stats intact. It's just that each version has a different Mega Evolution.
Stones take precedence over versions.
So a Charizard holding Charizardite X will still Mega-Evolve into MCX even in Pokemon Y.

I'll see if my local Gamestop has anything planned and I'll attempt to get swag if so. However, I doubt Gettysburg will be doing anything special and I plan to preorder at Walmart, due to convenience.
GameStop never has free swag.
Thus, we need to rely on PB for our swag.
They might also be giving away free Pokeswag at Comic Con.
Sucks that I'm not in NY. I want some swag... :'(
SWAG I WANT THEM :W
No special event down here even. Although they did one for B2W2... But that one was really small scale...
We never have events here, why can't there be a Nintendo world in LA?
Unless we get Pokemon: The Civil War Edition, I'll never see an event around here.
Though... a region based on Gettysburg that is steeped in lore regarding the war that Lt. Surge talked about...

*Looks at wallet*
My wallet... she's acrying...
lol Joking aside, I'll see what I can get! I'm bringing BOTH 3DS there. Don't know if I should bring one of my B/W version games with me.
PS: Also, good to know I can have both Mega Charizard Y and Mega Charizard X in the same game! ^_^
Um... so is it only Mewtwo and Charizard with two Mega Forms? Seems kinda unfair they get two while the rest get one... I wonder what a Mega Venusaur X would look like? Even a Mega Blastoise X as well! Presumably the forms we saw were their Y forms.
Well one of the best things about Comic Con are TONS OF STREETPASSES. So playing a DS game is right out!
According to a friend of a friend of mine who followed the Canadian leaks Blastoise and Venusaur only have one, but you never know.

Huh, so why is Charizard consider the favorite child out of the three then? Well Charmander/Charmeleon/Charizard is my favorite of the start Pokemon (Charmeleon my number one favorite) but it seems kinda... odd they only have two Mega forms for two Pokemon only.
Though there's a LOT of Pokemon and a few good number of them have Mega Forms already but still... odd.

As for the Kanto starters... I still think V and B should get 2 Megas too.
I do too, I want another option for Blastoise.
I refuse to trust any rumors from leaked copies. I'd rather see it for myself, straight from the source.
Yeah same here, I want my other Blastoise dammit!
I wonder what other cannon configurations it would have. We've seen shoulder cannons, back and arm cannons... Not many other places to put cannons aside from the chest and head.
As awesome as D'harhan (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/D'harhan) is, I can't picture Blastoise having a cannon for a head. :P
I can think of one place... 8D

Thanks to one of my friends on Facebook who pretty much posts on a [parasitic bomb] load of Pokemon related Facebook pages I've been seeing some weird leaks but until it shows up on Serebii I'm not going to report them since I don't know if they're true or not, though I bet some are very fake.
Well, I too have seen leaks on Imgur.
Some are very interesting to say the least.
Yeah the one I saw today was Mega Abnormasnow with a boost in Attack and Special Attack with a severe drop in speed with a Lv 40 only having a value of 36. It's perfect for Trick Room strategies like Ferrothorn.
New Kalos Pokemon were my objective, and I did see some.
As for the Megas...
[spoiler]Mega Abomasnow is definitely a Graveler in disguise.[/spoiler]
Yeah it does look like a Graveler now that I look at it again, that's why I don't post things until I see it on Serebii.
Well there's this guy Josh, and all his leaks are pretty legit. Some of those on Imgur are probably his.
There's some really good ones, quite excited.
That and Serebii legally can't post any leaks because they did back in 2010 with B/W and Nintendo came down hard on him.
Yeah I know that.
Anyways,

Day 2 (http://imgur.com/a/7aohL)
These are the leaks from that Josh guy. They're legit.
Wow, that's lot info he's providing us. I wonder what kind of possibilities pimping out your Pokemon will have.
I want my team-killer to wear a top hat or a fedora. Nice to see the berry-farming mechanics being expanded even further and wonder Mega Aerodactyl is gonna be like.
And is it just me, or does Mega Charizard Y remind look like a dragon from Breath of Fire?

Whoops. Must have miss-read that (I was viewing it on Xbox IE earlier and it was kinda giving me problems). But nevertheless, I want a top hat.
I hope that apparent free Lapras that conveniently knows Surf will be useful if you happen across a certain dark cavern.
Dammit, Mewtwo is hyped so damn much that he had better be in the game. Otherwise, I'll need to grab HeartGold or see if someone has a spare they'd be willing to give me. :(
Pangoro can learn Surf.

As I recall, transferring old 'mans requires Pokemon Bank, not available until December and requires a paid subscription after 30 days.
For me, it's arguably not worth it since I never really got a competitive Gen5 team. But there had DAMN WELL BETTER be some Dragonite action in Pokemon X, is all I can say... Ditto for Mewtwo.
"Wow! You and your Pokemon's power levels is incredible! They're over 9000 for sure!
I cracked up when I saw that! XD
One of the most famous DBZ lines is in the game! Gotta love those references and Easter eggs. Even if it's a little different but definitely based form it.
I am curious to see what other Mega Pokemon are in the game now seeing as Aerodactyl has one and what Eevee's second new evolution form from X/Y will be as well.
Reading Day 2 of the site now...
[spoiler](http://i.imgur.com/B3EgmYXh.jpg)[/spoiler]
So that's what Mega Aerodactyl looks like, very cool.
I'm a little sad that Chesnaught is part fighting but at least his stats are kind of nice, admittedly don't know if I should have the Torchic in my team or not now since Blaziken will have similar weaknesses. Though I guess I'm glad Chesnaught not weak to fighting now?
Going by the leaked typings...
You will notice...
[spoiler]Grass->Water->Fire
Fighting->Dark->Psychic
THE OLD RUMOURED SECONDARY STARTER WEAKNESS CYCLE HAS COME TRUE
AFTER 4 GENERATIONS[/spoiler]
Oh yeah that would make sense, maybe I should get a Houndour for my fire type since I've never used one to and it would compliment Chesnaught.
My preorder reserve card just mocks me now.
I WANT THE GAME SOOOOOOO BAD!
Good thing I'm the patient and planing type, I already know what half my team will be as well as wanting a Fairy type and the obligatory Flying type though if I find something else I'll consider it. I just need to figure out the other possibilities since I already have the Fire, Grass and Water part as well as the Dark and Fighting that I prefer to have. I guess an Ice or Psychic would be nice to have, if there's a Jynx she would be perfect.
Oh well just need to keep observing.
I know my team will probably just be my Starter and a trusty backup dominating the field because I'll overlevel the [parasitic bomb] out of them.
Its not like I play the game competitively or anything so its the perfect playstyle for me.
I know I will self-trade with myself to get all the starters...
But looking at all the Pokemon one can get just before the second gym... This has become a lot harder.
Also, thinking about pre-ordering.
Even though it will be about 3-5 bucks off normal price.
Oh yeah Clef your dream came true, Exp Share gives Exp to all Pokemon. You equip it to the battling Pokemon, your battling Pokemon will get the full Exp while everyone else gets half. So if your Pokemon gets 300 everyone else gets 150. I'm so going to abuse the hell out of that, which seems necessary since by the 3rd gym everyone is in their 30's.
Exp Share is a definite for me. I try to level everyone up equally, but I always end up with two that are ten-fifteen levels ahead of the rest of the team.
You know I think I actually don't need an Ice type Pokemon since Grass/Water and Fairy can do any job it can. Hmm what to fill it with.

Oh... HELL YES.
Haven't figured out my team for this Generation, I know I had Charizard, Blastoise, Lucario, Hyperion (that's Rhyhorn's next form's name, right?), Sableye/Spirittomb, and Raichu as my members.
Well this time I'm going to make an ALL-STAR Team of Charizard, Mega Charizard X, Mega Charizard Y, Charmeleon, and Charmander. Sadly I do not know who would be a good 6th for that group... perhaps another Charmeleon that is LV100 and has a different moveset from the rest?
Anyway I'll definitely get a Fairy-Type Pokemon on my team, but I'm not sure. I'm not use to competitive play that much but it will be fun to level up my Pokemon! Sadly no Action Replay to get Rare Candies to power level them anyway, but the new Poke-Mileage where the amounts of your character walking is turned into points where you can buy Rare Candies with it! So a good alternative! ^_^
You know Mega Evolutions aren't a permanent thing and are only something that happens in battle, right? That's like having three Charizards on one team. That's goofy.

Hate to burst your bubble, but I think you can only have 1 mega in a team. o3o
Per battle, ignoring the opponent's Mega.
So in reality, he has 3 normal Charizards in the overworld.
I'm more concerned with acquiring Mewtwo. I asked a friend if he could catch me a spare since he won a Master Ball that he can't transfer to X and Y.
Anyone have a spare Mewtwo? I love you long time if you do. :3
I might. I'll have to check!
ME LOVE YOU LONG TIME :D
At the moment, I do not. However, it'd be a simple, albeit time-consuming, matter.
The matter of a spare mewtwo may have been settled by now anyway. >.>

One per battle, ignoring opponent's Mega.
The evolution only happens DURING the battle, if you CHOOSE to evolve it.
After the battle, it reverts back.
Quote from: BulbapediaMega Evolution can only occur in battle and disappears after the battle is over.
Quote from: SerebiiTo get your Pokémon to Mega Evolve, you can select a button when picking the move and then select a move. The Pokémon will both evolve and attack in that turn. You may only have one Mega Evolution in a battle.
Quote from: SerebiiDuring the final episode of Pokémon Smash, it was finally fully showcased how Mega Evolutions work in battle, answering a question that has been in place in some parts of the fandom since the revelation. It proved that you can have a Mega Evolution in combat if your opponent also has one, with this footage being the first showcase of two Mega Evolutions being seen in battle, as seen in this battle where Mega Ampharos was used against Mega Blaziken confirming that it is one per trainer in battle, not one overall per battle.
(http://img266.imageshack.us/img266/7954/ti2o.jpg)
Quote from: Official XY websiteUnlike regular Evolution, Mega Evolution occurs only during battle. Once the battle ends, the Mega-Evolved Pokemon will return to its usual state.
Oh, I see... that kinda sucks then ^_^;
No 6 Mega Pokemon VS 6 Mega Pokemon battle royale then.
I'm actually glad for that. The "1 Mega" rule is effectively an enforcement of the old "flagship uber" style. The lack of any actual structure back in the day left precious few who would bother trying to find any middle ground between spamming them and banning them. We don't need the same thing happening to Megas.
Back in the day, my team was lousy. I relied on heavy-hitters, until I made a new team with Pokemon to support my heavy-hitters' weaknesses. I'm a bit better with building teams now, but Mewtwo tends to get a spot regardless.
He also gets Selfdestruct in his moveset regardless. Though, with the Mega Evolution, I may no longer need that, along with adding Psystrike to his arsenal. Back in the day, EVERYONE learned Selfdestruct. Basically, if I'm going down, I'm taking you with me! :P
I didn't know Mewtwo learned Self Destruct. Though I think Weezing is one of the best canidates for blowing [parasitic bomb] up.
Yeah, an exploding Mewtwo isn't very common, but I had one. That was a last resort tactic to bring down any hit sponges.
Hmm I need a Steel or Poison type.
Psystrike negates the need for an exploding Mewtwo, so I plan to arm him with that to combat any hit sponges. To take advantage of the Fighting stat in his Mega Evolution, he'll get at least one Fighting move, he'll keep mostly Psychic type moves, but I'd like to arm him with something to counteract his lousy defense.
Mewtwo's glass cannon status was such a pain back in the day. He could dish it out, but when faced with the right opponent, he certainly couldn't take it.
Snorlax waa my anchor, back in Silver. He was sooooo powerful. But alas, they just HAD to go and improve Fighting moves.
Snorlax was one of my hit sponges. Added him to my team when my friend started throwing heavy-hitters at me. Then, he learned my tactics and threw hit sponges at me so I'd be forced to use my exploding Mewtwo.
Heh, exploding Mewtwo.
Hmm I see a Doduo, I like Doduos.
(http://www.pokelol.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/DODUO_USED_FLY_by_eternalsaturn.jpg)
Still waiting for Lilligant to get the fairy-typing a mega evolution.
Better not disappoint me now.
I'm still debating who my new-gen starter will be. Much as I like Fennekin, there's no way I'm tearing myself away from Charmander, and two Fire starters would be pretty darn redundant... So, I like Froakie's design better than Chespin's, but water types are common as dirt in the late-game. Decisions, decisions...

Mewtwo already learns Aura Sphere, awesome Fighting move, but it's a special attack. Since Mega Mewtwo X boosts physical attack, maybe there will be something else to play with...
And yeah, I do miss the R/B/Y days when Mewtwo was a veritable special wall on top of being the most deadly attacker (and this was the time when most non-Normal physical attackers lacked reliable STAB moves). My, how things have changed... Zapdos suffered the "switch to glass cannon" fate a lot worse than Mewtwo did, at least IMHO.
Can't wait to adopt a pre-owned Mewtwo and play around with him. :3
Final starter evolutions have been leaked. (http://www.destructoid.com/pokemon-x-y-final-starter-evolutions-leaked-262971.phtml) Their secondary typing is not confirmed, but their appearance and moves seem to fit well with the previous rumors.
[spoiler]I believe my starter dilemma has been settled. I'm going for Ninja-Frog power.[/spoiler]
Yeah I've seen all three so it must be true, Fennekin's final evo was Fire Psychic while Chesnaught was Grass Fighting so I'm assuming that Ninja Frog is Water Dark. Still going with Chesnaught even though Ninja Frog would allow me to use Blaziken.
Quad-weakness to Flying doesn't sound good for Chesnaught. I'll go for Fennekin if I ever get Pokemon X/Y.
You rarely have to worry about Flying types.
If you worry for Flying-types, you're building your team wrong.
Or you have a Parasect, don't use a Parasect unless you're in a Nuzlocke.
Sans Nuzlockes of course.

I thought it was Water/Fighting and Grass/Dark. PokePeach had in their rumor list that the secondary typings were originally mixed up.
It's not Flying types that I'm worried about, it's just that I want to avoid having a Pokemon with quad-weakness in my team (unless their strengths outweigh their vulnerabilities).

Good to know. I would expect as such since he's hyped so much. In the event that that Mewtwo was transferred over, there's room on my team for a pre-owned adoptee. :3

He's conflicted because he always chooses Fire. I was going to say the other combination you can have until I remembered that Poison is weak against Psychic types.
Well, I suppose I could always just transfer over a Squirtle...
Be like me.
Self-trade, and get all 7.

I'm sticking with Fennekin because I simply want to see a Fire/Psychic type in action. I've never seen that combination in-game before, and it seems like it would be fun to use.

I may not even keep Torchic on my team, as I like to experiment. So, I'll most likely end up with this weird, ineffective team.

Dammit, Gettysburg needs more stuff. Pokemon North/South: Civil War edition. There is a MARKET for this!
I'm now imagining Pikachu in a blue Union uniform.
The Legendaries could be named after Civil War generals.
Raikou as Robert E Lee?
Sadly I have rarely any one to street pass in my location, even with the new Wi-Fi distribute event for places like McDonald's where you street pass there and it records your data and when you return you will get anyone else's street pass data that passed by/entered McDonald's as well (don't know if there's other places as well) but for the most part only GameStop is the most likely spot for me as the employees have 3DS on them.
I hope Mewtwo is obtainable just like in the original Gen I game and I shall name my Mewtwo... *drum roll please!* Mewtwo! It's classic! And original to boot, what could go wrong with a name like that? ^_^
As for my Starters I'm going ALL Fire Starters, I love Fire-Types I always have ever since I laid my eyes on Charmander... those adorable eyes, the charming fang, that awesome flame on its tail, and I like lizards too as Charmander was the choice for me! Though I shall self-trade with myself as I have two 3DS and I'm getting both version (Y version (Main), Chris - Male, and X version, Iris - Female) though it's going to be a while before I trade with my other character.
PS: About my Mewtwo's actual nickname... I was thinking "Ultimax". That's a cool and kickbutt for Mewtwo.

I may give my Mewtwo a nickname or not. If I do, it'd be Cherenkov, after the type of radiation that glows the same color blue as his powers. Though, if I'm adopting a pre-owned, that one won't get a nickname, if it doesn't have one already.
I never nickname my pokemon.
Neither do I.
Though these latest Pokemon have very colourful species names.

Ohhhh the latter. Unless I have a Master Ball lying around somewhere. Also I can get you a Groudon and Rayquasa as well.

Never had any of those before...

Hypershell wasn't expecting my Groudon the first time we battled! 8D
And yeah, they'll both be Level 50. Groudon is my Godzilla (while Tyranitar is Gojira! XD)
My god, I've missed out on so much... Twelve years since Johto, haven't touched the games til now.
My god.
My history mimics Mewtwo's own comeback. XD
Seriously Quickie you should play some of the games before getting back into this one.
Technically, she should get HeartGold! 8D
Well Heart Gold would help, though you should probably at least play one of each generation. And also absolutely play Platinum over Diamond and Pearl so saving is less irritating, though you will still hate snow and the Great Marsh for impeding your movement.
You can skip Black and White and go straight for Black 2 and White 2 if you don't care about story.
Eventually I plan to get some of the other games. But, oh well.
Heh, start with HeartGold I say. XD
Yeah I still say that Soul Silver is probably my favorite.
It's definitely my fav. Love the original, favorite adorable starter, great opportunity to collect a lot of the legendaries, and still the best game for training and leveling Pokemon up to 100.
Oh yeah Quickie needs to get used to the new Special Physical split, Natures, Abilities and all that crap.
Well supposedly this game is going to teach all about that.
Probably I guess.
I'll figure it out. I have Bulbapedia if I get stuck.
Just make sure you're familiar with most of the current 649 Pokemon in the past.
Working on it with random page editing. If I come across something I'm not familiar with, I'll look it up.

"Geistiletto"? = Geist (German for "spirit") + Stiletto (a short dagger; easily mistaken for the type of high-heeled shoes though)
No she should avoid Diamond and Pearl like the plague, probably better if she starts with Heart Gold and then Black 2 or White 2 if she doesn't care about story.

But playing B/W2 it's hard going back to it.

It's not that I hate it it's just I have my annoyances with it, particularly with the Snow Routes, and the Great Marsh and similar routes that impeded movement. I didn't mind the Tall Grass in Gen 3 since it only slowed you down since you couldn't use your bike, in some places you can bypass it, and it was a short part of the game. Snow and the Great Marsh like areas not only slow you down, but it impedes you since you sink in it making you waste time getting out of it and it's in a good portion of the game, at least 2 towns worth plus the outer routes of Mount Coronet
Don't get me wrong I like Diamond and Pearl and Sinnoh in general despite that, but Heart Gold and Soul Silver are the superior games of Gen 4 and I think Quickie would like it better since she's more familiar with it.

If you really want to play Sinnoh that is the definitive version, especially since it got rid of that obnoxious saving bug.

Agreed with that.
The easiest complaint is over extensive use of HMs. The better argument is that the entire game depends too much on odd gimmicks, such as the double team sections. The best complaint is that I felt the game lacked the aesthetic that would give Pokemon games their charm (Johto's Japanese influences, Hoenn's tropical motifs, Unova's Western inspirations, etc.) and the story is surprisingly underwhelming considering the material at hand. But I personally have the most problem with how oddly simple the game is when you consider the jump from 3rd to 4th gen was one of the biggest since 1st to 2nd. The best parts of the game are allusions to the 3rd gen games and at worst it DRAAAAAAGS.
Overall, the D/P/PT games suffer a bizzare uncanny valley when compared/contrasted to the other games. A big enough change from the past games to qualify Sinnoh as a fleshed out region, but not enough to be interesting or worth it to play. Also, WTF TOO MANY LEGENDARIES.
Okay, a little off-topic here, but would there be an RPM pokemon tournament at some point after Gen 6 comes out? Just curious, is all. o3o
Yeah there's the extensive use of HM's in that game that's kind of annoying too, and there is a lot of necessary backtracking for plot progress that doesn't accomplish much.

Ahh... I kinda agree with the snow... Especially the blizzard routes which really block your line of vision.
Although I had some fun in the mud and Marsh. You can play in the mud, and not get dirty at all! 8D
It's also the fact that it covers the entire Safari Zone, that really sucks when you have limited steps though I don't think it really affected that did it?

If you get stuck in the mud, just spin in place. You can still encounter Pokemon. :P
Yeah that's what I thought.
Of course, picking up all the items in there will be tedious, but it's just as tedious in the other gens. Mud just slows you down, but yea, steps are still steps, even if they are slow steps.
I can say that at least Victory Road wasn't super annoying like in Red and Blue or Black 2 and White 2 since I barely remember it.
So how many Mega Pokemon do you think will be in the game?
One thing is for certain.
No Mega Kalos Pokemon.
I've played Pokemon World Online, which had elements from up to Gen 4, so I haven't been in a total vacuum. Fan-made is better than nothing.
As for the Pokemon RP system, using all the elements from the game proved to be a bit too complicated to put together a decent dice-based system. At that point, you're better off just playing an online battle simulator. Now, Ringman and I have discussed simpler systems, one which would involve a program where you put in your stats and it calculates hits. Another simpler system would be a variation on Wushu, and since we already have the system, that might be easier to work with.
As for Mega Evolutions, I could incorporate that into the system pretty easily, but they would be basically just a new set of stats after the player announces that their Pokemon Mega Evolved.
Online battle simulator? OH! I know of one! Pokemon Showdown!
If that's the one I was thinking of, you can watch battles. :D
Ringman was watching a few battles and working on building this weird team of ineffective Pokemon with ineffective moves. Not only did he go through the trouble to add the most under-used and lousiest Pokemon, he didn't even augment them with moves that would be effective in any way.
I had to teach him about STABs and held items.
There's also the EVs and IVs there too, IVs are mostly inconsequential unless you want max Speed IMO but EV's and Natures are where the selective breeding and training of Competitive Battling really makes a difference.
XD
But yeah, when I switched computers, I lost the teams I made on there. >.<;
Though, it would be interesting to see who would win in a not-story-based battle, or how our RPM Pokemon Adventures characters would stack up. :P
For forum RP purposes, it would be best if we keep the system simple. Otherwise, as I said, just use a battle simulator.
Preliminary write-up of the Kalos regional zone Pokedex(es) (http://i.imgur.com/X6GVi7F.png)
Judging by the top of the Central Pokedex, there are some nice Pokemon at the start of the game. Type setting seems good when you get two starters and one of the element monkeys.
There are also some Mega Stones available for (presumably) National Pokemon. So either these Pokemon are provided in post-game, or they are required to be brought over with the Bank/Transporter.

I'm looking at that and I count less than 70 new pokemon, not including megas. Personally, I'm hoping that that pokedex is either incomplete or going to be severely edited, because that few new pokemon is severely underwhelming and a bit of a let down to me.
Yeah, I know it would mean more work to "catch 'em all", but, y'know, most people only catch their favorites, and connection to the internet makes it vastly easier for people who really do want to catch every single one of the little buggers to do so.
At least if I'm going to use old Pokemon in this game it'll be old Pokemon I haven't used before, but yeah I agree there should have been more new Pokemon, even that leaker Josh said while there was a lot of Pokemon early in the game he was a bit disappointed by the lack of new Pokemon. I think it's because of the Mega Evolutions.
69 not-megas are shown on that list. Though, if those pink blank spots are unrevealed/not-leaked new pokemon, then that'd bring the total up to a more comfortable 98 new not-megas. So, here's hoping that's what the blank pink slots are.
Some of those better be filled with Joltik, Galvantula, and Heracross.
Pretty sure they've gotten every new Pokemon and slots #650-#719 are full.
There's only 69 new Pokemon.
I'm sure we'll figure them out soon enough, plus there has to be more Legendaries.
In the mean time I think my team will consist of Chesnaught, Blastoise, Houndoom, obligatory Fairy type (most likely Florgus), Dragalge, and Aerodactyl. Full of Pokemon I've never used in the main game and I'm only somewhat familiar with Aerodactyl and Houndoom.
Also convinced a friend of mine to name his Aromatisse Posh Spice.
There's rumblings of a Legendary Trio, and of course Event Legendaries we haven't heard of yet, but... I don't think there's any more new ones aside from those.

Also, to answer your little "hope", stuff like Action Replays are basically dead, they can't circumvent Nintendo's security anymore. This applies to the old DSi AR units too, those don't work in a 3DS anymore.

Well what I mean is that Red is the same as Blue so X is the same as Y.

Perhaps I should further elaborate. As my first true Pokemon title, which game do you suggest I play first.

Not all of them, it's been confirmed that none of the Kalos region Pokemon are going to get one, not even the starters.
Fine by me. At least it breathes new life into previous gen Pokemons.

During my competitive days with early Gen IV (D/P), I spent about over a hundred hours capturing, breeding, and training Pokemon, taking them to the Battle Tower (the battles were hardcore if I remember correctly), contests, and all that jazz. Still had some fun with it.
I don't play competitively, so my training is a bit more relaxed. My play tends to be more exploration, with Elite Four grinding to level up my team.

Mewtwo still demands to be fed, though. :P
*shoots a Tarros*
Would this do?
*Mewtwo attacks the fresh kill and starts feasting.*
:o
Now to give him plenty of space so he doesn't think we're trying to steal his food...
*backs away slowly*
At least he has better manners than a Hydregion.
So, we have two Mega Evolutions for X and Y, an ersatz for the 16th movie, a bestial nutcase for Origins, and as I pointed out and Vixy further confirmed, he got his job back in SSB4.

Makes me wonder how they're going to show this in the US? Probably edited it out, but I'll be very surprise if they kept the scene as is.
Bypass network restrictions by only showing it on Pokemon TV, that's how.
Or a DVD release.

Nice, maybe it is a sign of 3rd gen remakes.
When it has been 40/45 years since the first game!?
When it is hurtling through the cosmos in the year four-hundred billion!
...I watch too much Ren & Stimpy.
Well one of my friends is upset because Malamar's base stats seem to really suck according to Smogon calculations, and he's been obsessing about this thing.
HP: 80
Attack: 100
Defense: 90
Special Attack: 70
Special Defense: 60
Speed: 70
I kind of expected this from a Pokemon with a 2 Stage Evolution, a really good Type combination and both Contrary and Topsy Turvy. I don't really care since I don't care about stat buffing and debuffing as much as the next guy, Galvantula, Houndoom, and Meinshao are more my style.
that's one reason i don't pay attention to base stat totals and tiers and stuff. it sucks the fun out of the game.
I CAN NEVER USE THAT PIECE OF CRAP POKEMON CAUSE ITS BSTS ARE TOO LOW AND I NEED TO USE THIS ONE THAT IS IN THIS TIER AND IT NEEDS THIS NATURE AND ABILITY AND... WAIT, JUST HAVE FUN AND PLAY THE GAME? WHAT'S THE POINT IN THAT?
too much work for me :D
Yeah I pretty much suck at competitive battling, but I do find it interesting.
One of the main reasons why I say to hell with competitive battling. Mewtwo is always on my team. In competitions, I'd be booted out before the first match because I'd refuse to take him off my team.
I'm looking forward to the exploration and general training. I make my own story when playing. To hell with competitive battling.

Funny you say that. Meinshao holds up pretty well against higher tiers; and Galvantula and Houndoom don't only because STEALTH ROCK CAN GO DIE IN A HORRIBLE CAR ACCIDENT.
The problem about Mewtwo is that he is, quite literally, the strongest Pokemon in the whole metagame. That doctor from the movie wasn't kidding around.
And wait... CONTRARY?! o-O
That makes Malamar the opposite of weak! Dare I say, contrary to what his stats say? AHAHAHA *shot*
But seriously, If Malamar has Superpower in its movepool we are all [tornado fang]'d.
Yeah I don't like that about competitive battling, the strategies are boring and I rarely follow them.
Mewtwo also have a great move pool to play around with. I've already started deciding what all he should learn for a nice, well-rounded moveset. But, yeah, he's un the uber tier, and thus is usually banned.
You know, if you're a real competitive player who's worth your salt, you wouldn't give a fig about tiers and would find ways to beat teams that use upper-tier Pokemon, rather than pussy out and ban them. Banning them from play is the coward's way.
I agree with that, I never follow "teirs".

That's... not really why tiers exist. Smogon gets a bad rep for diminishing the cool factor of pokemon. Really, tiers were made to prevent the stronger pokemon from steamrolling the weaker ones that people do want to use. You see, Smogon does their best to maximize the strengths of any given pokemon. The issue is that they can't be biased and will also have to maximize the strengths of the stronger pokemon also, making already strong guys, well, uber. The main problem is how competitors interpret the site's patronage; by blatantly ignoring weaker but still good pokemon for the strongest of the strongest. Also, [tornado fang] stealth rock.
Yeah the Stealth Rock thing is terrible, they ban Double Team but keep that in, yeah good priorities.
The tiers wouldn't be half the problem it is if it banned stealth rock. I'm okay with spikes and toxic spikes because they actually require strategy, preparation, and foresight to use. But stealth rock says [tornado fang] that and toss out once and BAM, 4 of the 16 (now 17) types are INSTANTLY unusable in competitive battling. And at least a fourth of the entire pokedex has been almost COMPLETELY neglected in the eyes of competitors. O:<
Again, if you're a trainer worth your salt, you will find ways to use weaker Pokemon against upper-level Pokemon. Thus what I said is quite valid. The stronger trainer will step up to the challenge and use their underdog team to carve a path to victory. The weaker trainer will ban stronger Pokemon.
It's the same thing as saying that good artists shouldn't enter contests because they will outclass the weaker artists.

I beat Hypershell's Mewtwo with [tornado fang]ing Gardevoir who is in the Never Use Tier in a [tornado fang]ing Double Battle, I may have been swept but that is a [tornado fang]ing achievement!
apparently stealth rock has been altered to only do 25% damage max.
So now Charizard stands a chance, poor poor Charizard.
Due to the STUPENDOUS variety of the Pokemon metagame, there do exist combinations and strategies that are considered blatant cheating or breaking the system. There still need exist rules and guidelines to force them out.
I also feel the need to iterate that it doesn't exist one pokemon that scare people away, but a the synergy that can terrify people. I mean, anyone with half a brain can beat Mewtwo, but when you pair him up with the likes of sandstorm Excadrill and/or speed boost Blaziken, then suddenly, you may rethink your opinion. unless your Garchomp, seriously, screw that guy.

WATWATWATWAT. I demand source NAO. :O
Hell, I lacked a Master Ball in Yellow (Ringman blew it on an Abra) and only one of my Pokemon (my Pidgeot) was up to snuff. Mewtwo tore through my team like so much wet toilet paper. I still managed to whittle him down and catch his stubborn ass in a Poke Ball.
I'm a lousy trainer. But dammit, I'm not going to wuss out just because someone has a team full of Legendaries. Even if I get my ass handed to me and take out only one with Self-destruct, I'll still count it as a small victory. I was brave enough to go against an experienced trainer in battle. That itself is a victory.
The problem I have with Legendaries in competive battling is that unless you are willing to cheat you have to reset your game over and over again to capture that Pokemon so it has a good Nature and in some extreme cases the IV's you want. That's why I don't bother with Legendaries. I'll fight them but I won't fight an entire team of them, especially if Darkrai is included, [tornado fang] Darkrai.
All mine will have terrible Natures and bad IVs because I can't be arsed to reset all the time. It's there, it's ready for capture, whatever personality it has I get.
Yeah if I'm going into competive battling I prefer to breed my Pokemon because it's easier for me to do.
Can't wait to catch that weird Impish Mewtwo with the screwed-up stats! 8D

Superpower lowers the user's attack and defence by one point each.
So with Contrary, Malamar gets one point BOOST in attack and defence each.
And yes, if you Swagger an opponent, its attack drops 2 stages instead of raising 2 stages.

Swagger normally raises attack of opponents by 2 stages.
If Malamar used Swagger on an opponent, opponent's attack drops 2 stages.
If Malamar gets hit by Swagger, its attack drops 2 stages.
If Malamar used Swagger on ANOTHER Malamar... Swagger raises the attack of the opponent Malamar by 2 stages. And vice-versa.
Since their Contrary cancels each other out.

Mega Tyranitar seems to just be a suped up version with both the same type and ability however Mega Aggron is Pure Steel and get's Filter which lessens the damage of Super Effective attacks.
Don't be sad about that, Sakura. You have plenty of people here who could trade you some Houndours. :D

[spoiler]To start off, Jigglypuff and the Gothita line have got a new ability called Competitive, which boosts its Special Attack stat when one of their stats is lowered. Kecleon has a new ability called Protean that changes the Pokémon's type to the type of the move it just used. The latter is demonstrated in a new kind of battles "Inverse Battles" where the type effectiveness is inversed. This is only done in Route 18 against a Psychic. It's a daily battle

Really need that Houndour now, especially since it seems that Houndoomite is exclusive to Y for some reason.

The line wasn't even that bad for when the Wii first came out. I've never seen anything like it at that store. This game is gonna be huge.
I not going to be surprise if it beats the GTA 5 sale with how big it is, that's why I didn't want to get it on release.
Not sure when I'll be heading back to Gettysburg, but I hope it's soon!
Guess I'll get my game when it arrives on the 16th.
Or I could take the one from Gamestop, play that one, and return the copy Newegg sends me for a refund.
That could work too.
Actually I don't know what to do.
I wonder if I can use the reserve card I got at the Gettysburg Walmart at the Carlisle Walmart...
Not as if I'll be able to play it, though, until I get back to Gettysburg, as I left my 3DS at home...

It probably won't beat GTA5's overall profits, but with the combined effort from America, Europe, and Japan, not to mention it's
Pokemon, I have no doubt it'll be pretty darn large amounts of profit. Plus the annual fee for the Pokemon Bank for the particularly dedicated enthusiasts probably adding up somehow in a lesser manner.

People said the same thing back when Black & White came out, they haven't.
Yeah you might be right, still a lot though.
Got the game bright and early, and made sure to EV-grind my Froakie right away. Super Training is available right off the bat, but the training regiments do need to be unlocked by clearing the first ones available and working your way up, so if you want to EV-train your starter, you'll first want to catch another 'man to use as your guinnea pig. Once everything is unlocked, you can get 12 EVs for each round. Still tedious, but it kicks the crap out of the old way, and getting it done in the beginning means you can actually use Pokemon you used in the story competitively when you're done.
I'm wondering how easy it will be to find the EV-reducing berries, though. Not having full knowledge of every 'man's moves and abilities makes EV training this early kind of a shot in the dark...
Oh, and your Pokemon now gain experience for a successful capture. Nifty.
Why would you even EV train for ingame
The game is dirt easy enough as it is

You can receive reset training bags, if you haven't already gotten one
I caught a Pancham, so now Darunia is officially part of my team. :D
I'm messing around with it right now. I'm already loving all the effort that they've put into it. I especially love how the trainer kneels when talking to someone like a young child or short Pokemon. I find it cute. I'll be level grinding while I make lunch.
I know someone with 4 copies....
Okay so I just beat Korrina, received my free Lucario unlocked Mega Evolution. I'm... ten hours and twenty-five minutes in and I have three badges.
My current team is:
Hawlucha lv. 30
Amaura lv. 31
Floette lv. 32
Venusaur lv. 36 w/ Venusaurite
Delphox lv. 37

I still don't know why!!!!!
I now has X! And my feet hurt from 2 hours of walking to get it! Now I'm getting kicked off the internet because my brother's playing a league of legends tournament and he thinks my computer is eating the bandwidth.
Have internet access at the hotel I'm staying at, pretty cool! Glad to hear you guys got X and Y already and another Mega confirmed. Sad I haven't played it at the NYCC but the line was kinda long (not going outside of the building or anything) but I'm picking up my copies of the game on Monday or possible late Sunday (if we get back home before 9pm) so I can wait until then.
NYCC is really something! Saw a lot of people with very interesting and well-made costumes and some so-so costumes... haven't spotted Protoman Blues yet (though not sure if he's in costume or not or what he's wearing). I haven't seen EVERYTHING yet but my brother and I got the Dragon Ball set, complete with all 7 Dragon Balls (and we made a wish! We got some Pokemon... Chimchar for me and Piplup for him. ^_^ Nah we just got some Poke Balls with a random Pokemon (with keychain) nearby which I don't know where he went to grab).
Haven't really got anything Pokemon-related yet except for the Poke Ball and I got "Are you Afraid of the Dark?" the old Nick show back in the 90's on DVD the complete series. I hope I can go to Nintendo World and grab a Pokemon Plushie there and check out some of the other Nintendo stuff there as well... and this time I'm bringing my 3DS! Got a good number of Street Passes now.
Well that was it for today, and I enjoyed that head set at the Intel floor/block where you put on these goggles and you're basically inside the video game world (from a racing car) and you look around to see all of the environment. I was awesome reminds me of the .hack hear gear for the players to use to visualize see the game through their eyes.
Tomorrow is my last day (only visiting Comic-Con for two days only) so I hope I can see more of Comic-Con find more Pokemon stuff. I wonder if I'll find someone selling a Keyblade in there.
Anyway "smell ya guys later"! bVd
Okay, so I know Sakura suggested starting with Soul Silver/Heart Gold first, but... X/Y looks tempting.
Got my Gamestop copy.
Heh, turns out it cancelled on their end but it didn't cancel online.
How funny, but they had plenty of copies so I got one and the pre-order map.
Now to take the Newegg copy back to Gamestop for a refund. It'll be no different unless they put a newegg sticker on it or something.
Anyway, when do I get to play Trainer Dress-Up?
That's like literally half the reason I've been wanting to play this.
Quote from: Phi on October 13, 2013, 01:27:10 AM
Okay, so I know Sakura suggested starting with Soul Silver/Heart Gold first, but... X/Y looks tempting.
Well really any version is good because they all have tutorials, except for Diamond, Pearl and Platinum since they put the tutorial to catch Pokemon after you might have capture 2 or even 3 Pokemon. If you need like an RPG tutorial Fire Red and Leaf Green is like the most ridiculous tutorial ever but I would probably give that to my mom since she couldn't figure out how to play the first Final Fantasy game since she didn't know what to do.
But yeah each game has a tutorial but if you want to get familiar with the Pokemon, since this game has a lot of old ones, I recommend Heart Gold and Soul Silver or Black and White 2 if you don't care about story. Otherwise you can probably get into X and Y easily.
Just go with XY, every new generation is aimed at a new group of kids anyway.

Ah I can't wait to get it!
Alright, guess I'll go with X.
Saw both X and Y at the NYCC but since I already pre-order both versions for myself there's no point of playing them as they won't be my file and save. It's irritating a bit but I can wait until Monday to play it.
And that's quite the cute-looking Trainer there Ruri! Suits you perfectly.

Why would I want more than one? Just one Fennekin for me, though I could see if they have others like a Mewtwo... might want to dangle it in front of Quickman and swing it back and forth saying "catch me if you can"! [eyebrow]
I have a Mewtwo plushie.
And I won't be able to get my game until tomorrow afternoon. I can pick up my 3DS from home, then, but I'm not sure how much I'll get to play it.

He's also one of the former presidents of anime club, and we have a [parasitic bomb] load of members.
I can't wait to start playing. Grand Admiral Jello, who hasn't played since Johto, says it's his new favorite game of the series.
Sadly, tomorrow, I need to wait until I get to Gettysburg to get my copy. I tried to see if I could get my reserve in Carlisle, but I couldn't.
Thus far, it's great. I like the name/nickname thing. Szin for my regular name and PB for my nickname! XD

He's also the guy who beat Pokemon Diamond in 24 hours straight in Jr. High, of course he's not going to do that in this game.
I'm passed the 6th gym, my Delphox is level 51.
I'm kinda miffed they changed the low HP sound effect back to an annoying beeping.
I liked what they did in Gen V better.
The Nuzlocker I watch on Deviantart caught a Shiny Female Adamant Absol in the wild, at least it wasn't a 3rd shiny Zubat that wasn't in a Nuzlocke.

Man, I'm sluggish, over 18 hours and still yet to get my third badge. I did nab both fossils via GTS already, though, and picked up plenty of Houndour. ;)

Ah, that's who it was. Yeah, I was slightly more obscure with my dragon fandom this time.
If anyone else is wondering, my trainer's name is Aislinn.
Okay, the new Exp. Share is also really awesome.
How so, PB? How is it different from before?
Also, I presume that berries are still a thing in this game, yes? Because, if so, I'm so going to grow a Leppa(PP restore) and Persim(confusion cure) (and Lum(full heal), if I can find one in game lying around) berry farm to have an edge, just like I do in Platinum.
Personally, I wish that there was a way to get some Lansat(Critical rate up) berries, since a free source of Dire Hit would be nice to have, even if I end up never using it in battle(and I recall that there's a pokemon with an ability(Cheek Pouch) that makes any berry into a HP restoring item when used on it, so it gives me a reason to use it(Hp heal and Crit rate up? Yes, please.)).
Exp Share works on all Pokemon now, the battling Pokemon gets all the experience while the rest get half each.
And to follow on the other question: yes, berries are still part of the game.
Back from the Comic-Con, but it felt so short. And sadly because we didn't know about it there was a PARADE happening of all times on the day we had to leave to go home and it blocked our path to Nintendo World and my parents it wasn't worth it and took us home (seriously they had to block ALL of the paths? Where are the cops to direct the people who want to cross and not watch the parade after the parade left).
Man... I wanted that Fennekin plushie but it wasn't meant to be it seems. Sadly I arrived home too late as the GameStop store closes at 6pm EST where I live so I have to go in the morning to get it (opens at 10am but I have class during that time and work at night so I won't be playing it for long) and I could download them but I have them pre-order and want that Torchic.
Sadly the only Pokemon PokeSwag was the Pokeball with a Pokemon Keychain figure (Chimchar) and I only got to spend like 8 hours at the Comic-Con in total... a very short trip for my first Comic-Con. :/
Next time it's RI Comic-Con.
So Protoman Blues did you enjoy the Comic-Con at least?
I can't wait to play Pokemon X and Y... getting the guide book with it too, if you guys want to know where some Pokemon are let me know unless sites like Serebii already have the info up for all to see.

Ok. That's helpful. Is it still a hold item, and who has to hold it in order for it to take effect if this is so?
From what I've heard it's not a hold item, rather you turn it on and off.

So where do you get the EXP Share? Is it Story-Related or do you have to go out and find it?
After you beat the first Gym Alexa at the gate of the next route gives it to you.
Thank you! Now I just need to WAIT to get the game.
So is the LV limit still tied to the Badges? Considering how much EXP you gain now do I need like the first two Badges to get a LV30 Pokemon to listen to me or did they remove or change that?
IIRC, even the game's first badge lets you control up to Level 30...
BTW, guys, there is a separate site for the global link/dream world (http://3ds.pokemon-gl.com/) for X/Y. They carry over your login from one of the other sites (Pokemon Trainer Club, I think?), but they really take your sweet time processing your account after you first register. So if you want them alternate abilities, you might want to get a head start.
*sighs* Guess it's time for another grind for Dream World Dratini... Hopefully I'll actually finish this time.

Serebii at present time has a general sense of locations and evolution methods. They're lacking stats and moves, but the latter you can usually find on wikis with a little searching.
Smogon's forum has the general calculations of base stats for most Pokemon but they haven't finalized them yet.
I don't think the Dream World is returning. There is an item you get in-game that lets you change your Pokemon's ability though, presumably to make up for the possible lack of Dream World. Also berries are in-game again, so that's another Dream World feature back in the games.
Also added ya finally, Sakura.
So... who here has me on their Friend List? I need to make sure I got my RPM buddies on my Friend List as well.

Finally got my game! I've been grinding, mostly, trying to get my team all at mostly the same level, though my Fennekin, Flamin' Yawn (lol pun), is at level 15. I was just about to stop grinding and actually hit the first gym when my battery ran low.
Tomorrow I head home, so I can get my charger and keep playing.

Lucky you... I won't be getting Pokemon X or Y until about 11 hours from now. It's a bit of a wait, but still... I like to start playing ASAP! Somehow B/W2 is losing its appeal to me now after seeing the features in X and Y!

Apparently you can catch the Kanto starters inside the Friend Safari and you can buy the Mega Stone later on in the game.
I wonder if I should name my Chespin Arthur or Chester when I get the game.
Arthur
Yeah I guess it's a lot more fitting, still don't know what to name my Blastoise because Leonardo is not really fitting for a giant turtle with giant guns. Probably woud have been good if I wanted a Froakie.
I named mine Aqua Blitz. Short for Blitzkrieg.
Then again I don't know what I want to name any of my Pokemon, except Houndour when I hatch it because that thing has to be a Treble.
Good lord how much longer till I get my second badge almost all of my pokemon in my team are level 30 already what the [tornado fang] stop railroading me on the thing about the secret of mega evolution.
So Sylveon's Hidden Ability is Pixlate, too bad there aren't enough Special Normal type attack for it to be useful.
So... I got my X and Y yesterday, but I have yet to start.
Just gonna wait a bit longer... For the guidebook. >_>
I don't know if Poison Touch or Poison Point would be better for a Dragalge, either way I'm going to teach it Venoshock.
If it has better defences... Point.
If it has better physical attacks... Touch.
The thing is according to Smogon's preliminary calculations of it's base stats it has decent Attack and Defense but it's Special Attack and Special Defense is significantly better.
EDIT: Actually its Attack isn't that much lower than it's Special so Touch would be better, I hope it can learn Waterfall and Dragon Claw.
Looking at it... Doubt it can Dragon Claw.
Yeah it looks unlikely, I just hope it has a good Physical Attack move pool. And I hope I don't have to teach it Outrage.
LOL, Outrage is practically given for Dragons.
As for physical movepools... Given it's part Poison, I hope for Gunk Shot.
But to be honest... There isn't much STAB physical moves for it to exploit.
Sans Outrage. 8D
Yeah weird Pokemon is weird but I mainly want it for the Fairies.
Dem Faeries.
Yeah and from the look at how the Faries stats are set up I think a Ferrothorn is going to be even more useful than ever. You basically need a Pokemon with good Special Defenses and/or good Attack, though I don't know how well a Dragonite would do against it since its STAB is useless.

With Refrigerate, Hyper Beam becomes an Ice-type move, gaining STAB, hence 225 base power.
On 2x... It's 450 base power.
On 4x... It's a freaking 900 base power.

Agreed. Super training is STUPIDLY addicting. That's good. Because it actually makes EV training fun! owob

Shiny Fennekin is shiny... but seriously? A PURPLE Fennekin? Oh goodness, it's PERFECT for the ideal nickname for my Fennekin if Fennekin were female.
Also I FINALLY got Pokemon X and Y today, though sadly the guide was delay so tomorrow I might get it, and just started it. Sadly I have only an hour left of gameplay until I go to work for 7 hours so I won't be playing my Pokemon game again until 11pm.
Anyway I could've swore I saw a link to Shiny Pokemon from X and Y here.
You got a Shiny Fennekin?
Quote from: Sakura Leic on October 14, 2013, 07:50:36 PM
You got a Shiny Fennekin?
Oh, sorry no... someone else got it and I wanted to post a picture of that Fennekin (I would be unexpectingly happy if my Starter were a Shiny right off the bat like that! XD) to show what its Shiny version looks like.
Anyway is a Brave Female Fennekin a good nature one for it?
No not really, it's actually pretty bad for it.
I got Timid for Pyre Sage. Quite happy with that! 8D
Also, Braixen might be my favorite 2nd form of a starter ever.
That is a freaking awesome Nature for that
I see... well I can use my Female Fennekin to breed for another one. Does the Egg's gender on the Pokemon lock when you receive the egg or when it hatches?
I think when you receive it, that's what I observed in Soul Silver.
Sheesh, I see a lot of breeding in my future.
Dunno if you guys knew already but I was using Flechling to hit the punching bag without anything and from time to time Fletchling "finds" other bags.
Yeah, all Pokemon can find other bags randomly while doing Core Training.
3DS is up charging. Then, it's back to training. I have Flamin' Yawn at level 15 before the first gym. Perhaps I should scale back the training? XD
I say it's okay since Viola is at 10 and 12 plus she has a Surskit that can use Water Sport which lowers the power of Fire type attacks for a few turns.
The rest of the team is 10 and 7, so I've been grinding them up.
Yeah they should be fine, do you have a Pikachu with you?
Yep. Dumped Lo-Watt Bulb in my team once I got the chance. I also have a Dunsparce named TrouserSnake, despite her being female.
Huh I didn't think you could find a Dunsparce so early. If you have a Bunnelby you can trade it for a lv 10 Farfetch'd in town if you want.
Already did that. Dig Dug Bugs found a new home, and Quacklin' has been tearing up the competition on my team.
Yeah all your team members should be ready for the gym by now at those levels. Then you you need to figure out what to catch next since you have to deal with Rock types, but also Ice and even Dragon types in the next gym.
Pretty much I've been deciding on what to catch by the following:
"Hey, I don't have this one, yet!"
That's a good mentality. At least the next route can also prepare you for the 3rd gym since it's a fighting type gym and that route has Faries and I think a Ralts.
TrouserSnake has a nice moveset when I caught her, and she's been holding her own pretty well. Rain Mouse, my Azurill, needs some more practice, though.
I think I want to get the game this weekend, it seems I have a good chance of getting one somewhere.
Just got my Charmander. I named him St. Elmo.
St. Elmo's Fire.
I'm such a dork.
I don't get it.
This. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Elmo%27s_fire)
Though, I was referencing the movie (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Elmo%27s_Fire_(film)) when I named my Charmander.
Man I'm young.
I caught a Ralts and I named her Mandark, due to her bowl cut. I had some problem figuring out a good name for Flabebe, but settled on Flower Power. Later, I may duck out of Lumiose (or however the flark it's spelled) and go back and find some more Pokemon.
Lysandre is so FABULOUS~ 8D
Finally did my first Wonder Trade with my LV4 Male Pikachu I just caught and wanted to give a newcomer him since Pikachu is a tad uncommon to get even if he's in the beginning and I got a LV7 Flabebe from a guy in Osaka, Japan who apparently got it from someone who played the game in Spanish as I got the Spanish Dex entry for it as well.
My Fairy-Type Pokemon, pretty cool! Though is Flabebe available in both versions or is this Pokemon exclusively to X or Y? Playing the Y version right now.
Flabebe is available in both, it can be found anywhere there is flowers and in at least 5 different colors.
Its in X, that's for sure. Comes in many colors too.
I definitely want a blue one.
Also I'm watching an LP of Pokemon X and is it me or does Foresight always end in what might be an inappropriate area in the Pokemon?
Got to mega evolving charizard. M Charizard X is glorious.
And a friend of mine gave me a Chespin and Froakie for my Pansaga and Panpour (and those two Starters were his last two). Got all the Starters now!
I need to start catching repeats. Currently, I'm just catching what I don't have yet.
Anyone got a spare Ditto I can get? I'll give you my Pikachu I nicknamed "Ash's Pika" with ya! ^_^
OK, I'm kidding about naming my Pikachu that but seriously anyone got a spare Ditto?
I don't have a Ditto. I have a Pikachu named Lo-Watt Bulb, but he's useful and has a spot on my team.
Oh yes, all of my Pokemon will have nicknames. Many of those names will be stupid, but I will guarantee one thing: those stupid nicknames will be memorable.

Same here... shucks there. Where do I go now? Hopeful someone on GameFAQs is kind enough to give me a Ditto.
And...
IS Vixy watching this? Someone needs to GIFT-WRAPPED that cute little thing and hand-deliver it to VixyNyan post-haste!
When he evolves, St. Elmo will become epic in many ways. His nickname is perfect for how awesome Mega Charizard X is.

What's he doing?
He started off annoying. I had already caught a Pidgey and he decides that he'll show me how to catch Pokemon.
Hello. Pidgey. On my team. IT DIDN'T JUST APPEAR THERE, YOU NIMROD.
Wonder what other moves are double-typed.
Also, Geomancy is a status move?
The [tornado fang] for a signature move.

Yeah I was disappointed about that too, but I'm getting Y anyway.
I know that Freeze Dry is an Ice type move that is super effective against Water types but I don't know if that counts.

Refrigerate Hyper Beam more than makes up for it.
... But I'm STILL going to pick Tyrunt/Tyrantrum.
I went with Amaura/Aurorus. I love the look of it. Borealia is lovely! 8)

That I didn't mind so much, I'm honestly used to the game not letting me buy pokeballs until after I do something else first.
What bugs me about him is simple:
Him and the rest of the scooby gang just kinda follow you everywhere. Its like they're the [tornado fang]ing tutorial, I pass the daycare center for example and suddenly HEY CLEFANT LOOK ITS THE DAYCARE WANNA DROP A POKEMON OFF?
He says stuff like "Lets have a competition to see who can be stronger" implying he'll be like Brendan/May in Ruby/Sapphire and be your main rival, but I've not fought the guy once, instead I keep fighting ALONGSIDE HIM, I can handle a double battle on my own, Calem, I don't need you to bring Espurr in just to have it get killed by two faint attacks in a row (by the way that was hilarious).
He's also doesn't wear a hat. That's like a Pokelaw violation or something, if he's supposed to be the male main character I don't care if I'm not playing as him he still needs his [tornado fang]ing hat.
.....That is a lot of nit picking right there.
Haven't had a double battle... yet. This will certainly be new to me.
Shauna is a bit ditzy, but tolerable. I like her.
Wow... no one is replying to my Ditto topic at all. Perhaps I should try and get lucky with Wonder Trade then? But still... what are the odds?
Quote from: Quickman on October 15, 2013, 07:58:24 AM

TEAMWORK! XD
Should be interesting, so long as my partner's Pokemon have been grinded up to the same levels as mine. I'd hate to have to take on two opponents at once because my partner wasn't up to snuff.
From what I've seen they are, though the AI may be another story.
Quote from: Sakura Leic on October 15, 2013, 07:57:03 AM
.....That is a lot of nit picking right there.
Yeah it is, but god damn he's just like boring as hell. I just want him to be the asshat rival or something, but that's not happening it seems. He's like Cheren or that other rival from B2/W2 that I forget the name of, but lamer.
Shauna on the other hand isn't too bad, Like Bianca.
Honestly at this point I never expect an [dark hold] rival anymore.
Who could top Gary/Blue?
Anyway should I just trade my Chespin for a Ditto? I got the Chespin from a Trade anyway, what do you guys think?
I say just find a Ditto yourself when you get to the place that has Ditto.
I miss those days.
But maybe I'm just upset that I've already got a fossil pokemon and I haven't even seen the second gym yet.

He doesn't wear his hat because
you're the main character. If you were playing as him, the girl would be without her hat instead.
It seems it's tradition that the protagonist always wear a hat of some sort, and they decided to run with it and make the.. 'rival', if he/she can be called that even in this game, lack it. Thus why you can't remove your character's hat ever unless you're going to the stylist.

Yeah I do too from what I've seen in the Let's Play I'm watching, it's not just from Point A to Point B like it was in previous games. That and you get access to a lot of services and Pokemon.
Ugh I found a Bagon and that little douche broke all of my pokeballs.
I was already upset that I [tornado fang]ing hit Whirlwind by accident and blew away an Absol I wanted to catch but that just made it worse.
Got my Ditto and I'm getting a new Chespin so that worked out for me.
Neat, I found a horde of Zangoose. None of the games I got ever had Zangoose.
And there's even one Seviper there, and the Zangoose all attacked it instead of me, That's kind of funny.

I encountered a horde of Seviper with one Zangoose. KOed the one Zangoose and all of them attempted to Bind and Bite and failed because they all targeted the Zan. XD
I accidentally killed three Flabebes until I caught one. And Burmy? You suck. Enjoy protecting yourself until your PP runs out.

More fun than him being completely useless in a double battle.
Though I guess in that last one his Absol ended up killing both Croagunk and Scraggy, but that was after I did all of the work.

His evolved Fenikin won that battle for me, but only because I got Confused and the game decided to have me hit myself three times in a row while he whittled them to zero. Funny enough, the 'two Feint Attacks' thing happened to that other Pokemon just like you said.
Hey, so I'm at 20 hours and I just made headway into Route 5.
I whole-heartedly blame Super Training.
So many [tornado fang]ing pokemon to catch.
I like how the encounter rates aren't like too awful like they could be in earlier games. I've only seen one Zubat for instance.
On the other hand I've seen Driftloom far too many [tornado fang]ing times.
I don't know why, but I REALLY like slurpuff's design, to the point that it's now in my top 5 favorite pokemon, regardless of how good or not good it is in battle. o3o

I will say the cave encounter rate is no longer as obnoxious as any of the past games (I played them all minus the gameboy games) but the grass encounters for me makes me want to drive a screwdriver into my head.
I am now the Pokemon League Champion.

My battery will die, but it will be worth having to wait for it to charge again.
Disappointed that there's no such thing (yet?) as a Mega Dragonite. Damn Garchomp strikes again... Mega Gengar sure looks interesting, though.
I normally do not give my Pokemon nicknames, and chose Amaura as my fossil 'man......but I'm SERIOUSLY fighting the urge to breed my own Tyrunt (GTSed one already) and nickname it Grimlock.
{{dewit}}
{{youknowyouwantto}}
i named my Tyrunt Sharptooth
he's now a Tyrantrum who knows Draco Meteor
the first pokemon he used it on was another Tyrantrum >0<
I need more FCs for the Friend Safari
Who here am I not friends with
I just got the game and you aren't friends with me.
Might not be with me? Not entirely sure, letting it charge while I head to bed.
Guess I wasn't, added you both.
I just caught an Abra. I named it Runaway because it's a pussy.
@VixyNyan
Oh, so you did buy Sylveon then and an Eevee one too! I expect no less from our Queen.
Anyway is there a way to pick your Kanto Starter and reset to get the desired Nature for them without having to re-fight the Professor again and again? I got a Charmander with Adamant for his Nature which is ATK+/SP.ATK- which isn't great as Charmander is more suited to Special Attacks than Physical ones and this is the Y version which Mega Charizard Y is more Special Attack specialist.
Also is it possible to get more Mega Stones for the same Pokemon? Like two Charizarnite Y Mega Stones?

Why bother? Anything works ingame and you can always breed a better one later on, plus you can catch the Kanto starters in the Friend Safari with their hidden abilities which outdates the ones with their normal abilities.

Without trading one off someone else, no.
Finally got to do my first battle against Calem.
Total Humiliation, his pokemon stood no chance against the onslaught of Venusaur, Greninja, and Blaziken.
Then again it might be a serious problem that I have so many fully evolved pokemon already.

I'm just attached to the first one I get so I like to get the right Nature for them right away. What's a perfect Nature for a Charmander?
And it seems there's a Stone Emporium post-game where you can buy the Mega Stones, so it's possible to get another Mega Stone but not until Post-Game it seems.
I find it pretty funny that they ask you if you want to take Lucario with you.
Why would you say no? I guess you could have one already if you leveled a Riolu from Route 22 up but still.
I grabbed a couple extra Pokemon for trading purposes, and when I went to name my new Bunnelby, I found that you can't call it Playboy.
So, I named it Hugh Heffner. XD
I really wish that there was an NPC that would tell me the size of a Pumpkaboo. The size gimmick is kinda cool considering it's a freaking pumpkin, but trying to distinguish them apart is kinda cross-eye inducing. >^<
Okay so I started some Super Training because the stats of the Lucario I got from Korrine were pretty terrible, HP especially.

Had a headache and took a break and went back again, still didn't find a Pikachu but I did catch a Dunsparce and then my Fletchling gained 3 levels because of it.
Seems the Global Link (http://3ds.pokemon-gl.com/) is up now.
I really like the roller skates.
And I caught Mewtwo. Oh yeah.
Debating on whether to name it Mabel or Quickie. :P

The free one from Korrina. I named him Pavorotti. Lucario Pavorotti.
Get it?
GET IT??
LUCARIO SOUNDS LIKE LUCIANO!
God, I need sleep.
Managed to get a Quilladin from GTS in a fair trade (I gave up a Dragonair for it, no worries since I got it in the Friend Safari so that'll be easy to get again). Now I have a baby Chespin (and currently have an egg containing a baby Bulbasaur too)
Haven't had this much fun breeding since Gen3.

Wait, you should have the Exp Share by now right?
... Unless your other Pokemon don't need grinding anymore.
I have Exp. Share. I may double back, though, to grind Abra up to snuff. Flamin' Yawn is at level 42, so I may stick Abra on the team, switch Pavorotti to the starting position, and go grind against some wilds.
42... Woa.

I finally got around adding everyone's FC for the 3DS on mine, only ones that haven't added me to theirs that I like are Dr. Wily II (and Dr. Meowly II), Quickman, and Ruri.
Well I caught myself a Snorlax just a while ago (named him Snoozer) and on my way to the Second Gym, been too busy with work and school so after day I got 3 free days to play Pokemon.

Where can I get some Fast Balls fast? Like to get a better chance catching Abra, unless I have a Pokemon with Mean Look to trap that Abra. Well I guess I could try to be lucky with Poke Balls and Great Balls though.
It's the Friend Safari, post-game thing. Lists all the friends on the system's friend list and assigns a type to each person. You choose that Safari and enter a small area where 2 Pokemon of that type (usually rare, starters are included) can be found. If that person's beaten the game, a 3rd Pokemon can be found in their Safari.
Also you're Fire-type.
I used a Quick Ball on Abra. Then, I named him Runaway. Dumped him in the Day Care until he was at level 21, took him back and taught him Thundershock so he had at least one offensive move. Can't wait to grind him up to workable levels.
I also can't wait for some wild Pokemon to make poor mid-level Runaway faint, and then I bring out Flamin' Yawn and [tornado fang]ing destroy that Pokemon in revenge.

If that person's beaten the game, a 3rd Pokemon can be found in their Safari.
Also you're Fire-type.
I see that's pretty cool and YES! Fire-Type is my favorite Type! ^_^
Quote from: Quickman on October 16, 2013, 05:09:36 PM
I used a Quick Ball on Abra. Then, I named him Runaway. Dumped him in the Day Care until he was at level 21, took him back and taught him Thundershock so he had at least one offensive move. Can't wait to grind him up to workable levels.
I also can't wait for some wild Pokemon to make poor mid-level Runaway faint, and then I bring out Flamin' Yawn and [tornado fang]ing destroy that Pokemon in revenge.
Where did you get the Fast Ball?
Random shops in Pokemon Centers, I think you can some in the town with the second gym.
Thanks Sakura!

I think mine were given to me, so I'm saving them for special Pokemon who are pussies and Teleport. :P
I've mostly found Dusk Balls.

Also on the topic of Safaris.
Do they assign types only to friends that have shared codes both ways?
Or do they do so for one-ways as well?
I have a Quick Ball and a Luxury Ball earmarked for Mewtwo. And a crate full of Poke Balls that he can tear through to his heart's content.
Only for friends who are fully added, not provisionally added ones.
Also since I have fully evolved forms of my team in the RP, I think I'm prepared for it.
Anyone in the RP have a Dark type, cause I'll need to use them temporarily to evolve Darunia.
Oh, and Quickie, Mewtwo ain't gonna be that easy to catch. Trust me, I caught him earlier. He's (naturally) powerful.
Sakura gave Quickie a Zoroark and Sapph is the Dark Type Elite Four while Sakura has a shitload since her dad is Professor Birch so therefore she catches a [parasitic bomb] load.

I have Bug and Dark moves with his name on them. And a False Swipe for good measure. He apparently spams Barrier and Recover like no tomorrow, so he'll be a nice hit sponge for a while as I chuck balls at his head.
Don't forget to Sleep/Paralyze him.
It will help in capturing, and delay the inevitable Struggle.
What level was the Mewtwo? LV70 or higher?

I only caught him cause he got stuck spamming Barrier when his defense was already maxed out. Used a Dusk Ball (catch rate of 3.5 in caves, which is higher than an ultra ball's rate of 3)
Oh and heads-up, Recover has 10PP. So you can make him run out if need be. He also has Aura Sphere and Psychic.
Then I have a Dusk Ball earmarked for him. And an Ultra Ball. And a Nest Ball, just because. And whatever Balls I can throw at him.
I make sure to have at least 30 of each version of Poke Balls just in case when facing off against lots of Legendary Pokemon or to prevent myself from running out.
Anyway who wanted a blue-colored Flabebe? Was it Mirby or Sakura? One of you mention you wanted one, I think.
I did but I want to catch it, I'm using it for my team.
Oh and Mewtwo is level 70. Since Chris asked that.
Just like old times... 8D
Anywho, I should get some sleep and avoid staying up all night like that again. That was ridiculous. Granted, I got two Badges and a few evolutions under my belt (my Azurill, Rain Mouse, is now fully-evolved!), but damn, I need to do something other than play Pokemon all night! XD
So getting to him is going to be like in the original where you have to beat the game first? Or is he somewhere in the middle of the game this time? Or is he a special event like in one of the other recent games?
According to what I've seen, beat the Elite Four, and your reward is tangling with Mewtwo.
On another note, I freakin' love my Dunsparce. I won't take her off my team for any reason, as her moveset is nice and she has enough bulk to be a sufficient meat sheild. My Pansage and Azumarril have been taking tours of duty in the PC, and I can't take my Farfetch'd out, as he's my Pokemon-catcher and Psychic-slapper (Dark and Bug moves in his set).
Someone needs to go so I can start raising Runaway, so Rain Mouse may once again go into the PC. I just won't take my Dunsparce off the team.
Even more like old times, the cave Mewtwo is in (though it's literally just a room) is known as the Unknown Dungeon! And you need to surf to get there! 8D
but yeah, you also get to tangle with the Z legendary post-game. And Friend Safari. And Battle Maison. Among other things...
So, tell me, is Dunsparce a good Pokemon for a well-rounded team? I really like mine, she knows Rage, Rock Smash, Dig, and Ancient Power.
It has a good Movepool but its stats beside HP really, really suck. I personally don't recommend it.
Quote from: Sakura Leic on October 16, 2013, 06:06:00 PM
I did but I want to catch it, I'm using it for my team.
Ah, I see. You want to catch it yourself... well I caught one myself and thought about giving it to you. If you change your mind let me know OK?
And Mewtwo is back to his roots again with catching him? ^_^
Sweet, I love that! So is this Mewtwo MORE Powerful than the old Mewtwo from Red and Blue/Green version (and Yellow version)?

Ha, who cares? I had plenty of Pokemon up to 100 in previous games just because I loved em.
Thus far I just got Lucario (IRON FIST) and the Mega Ring. About to head out of town. I just got Surf as well and apparently, Gogoat (TANNGRISNIR) can learn it. This interests me! XD
...Tanngrisnir? o-O
One of the goats that pulled Thor's chariot! 8)
Oh okay, that makes sense.
Trust me, that's one of my more clever nicknames, as oppose to my sillier pun-laden nicknames.
I like Tanngrisnir a lot too. Thus far, a very good Grass Pokemon. Plus he looks awesome. I'll say this, I like a lot of the Pokemon designs in this game. Now I just need to find the Move Deleter so that I can remove all the HMs from Blaziken...even though I'm probably just going to breed a new Torchic, since I cannot rename this one.
Yeah well... I named a Phantump Treebeard
and a female Trevenant is named Fimbrethil
YEAH
Oh yeah, what type am I?
Do I show up there?
Fighting?
Strange.
Alright alright alriiight, just got done ST my starter and on my way to my 1st gym battle, got me a Pikachu on the way as well.
I forgot how adorable Emolga is. I might have to train it!

Quote from: VirusChris on October 16, 2013, 04:29:21 AM
Anyway is there a way to pick your Kanto Starter and reset to get the desired Nature for them without having to re-fight the Professor again and again?
If Nature is a concern, I would catch a boatload of Ditto once you get to the Pokemon Village, and keep that Everstone handy. I admit, it is tempting to try and get a player-vs-player-suitable 'man right off the bat when it comes to your starters, but odds being what they are you'll likely find yourself settling for a "decent" Nature rather than the ideal one.
...speaking of breeding, just GTSed a FEMALE Tyrunt. I think it's time to get started, especially since I could use a non-Electric 'man that resists Electric attacks. After that, on to my fifth badge.
If and when I get a Tyrunt, I'll probably name it Megatron. XD
Mine was Docile too. The Lucario I got wound up being Hasty, which I'm fine with. But ahhhh Lapras, or as it's known by it's other name, Drago-Kryptonite! 8D
I got a Modest Squirtle on my first try so I'm happy with that.
I haven't monitored my natures, I simply don't really mind since I doubt I'll be doing much in the postgame outside of catching Pokemon.
About to boot up and rearrange my team, putting Pavorotti in front, St. Elmo second, Flamin' Yawn third, dumping Thumper the Steelix into the PC, and sticking Runaway in her place for some GRINDING. Flamin' Yawn held his own as the sole Psychic type, but damn does Mega Alakazam look cool, so Runaway needs some training.
Caught the Snorlax in one Great Ball and named it Bread for some reason, I'm just glad I decided not to buy more than 4 Great Balls for it, I didn't want to have a money drain early in the game.
I like how they gave a chance to get Snorlax so early in the game.
He wasn't hard to catch at all either. But I think it would've been nice to have the Apricot Balls back again.

HOLY CRAP, THE RICHISSME HOTEL HAS A BATHROOM ON THE TOP FLOOR
Oh, and did anyone else encounter that weird chick on the second floor of the one building across from the alley on North Boulevard in Lumiose? She appears again in one of the rooms on the fourth floor of the hotel.
What's up with that chick?
Where are the White Flabebe?
Quote from: Reaperoid on October 17, 2013, 04:40:00 AM

On Route 4 or 7 check any of the flowers.
Are they rare or something, though? I've spent a while looking, and I only get the flower patch colour, or orange.
That's odd, Serebii said it was like that and the Pokedex confirms they can only be found on those routes. Also have no idea how the friend system thing works, I only see Mirby and Ruri in game.
Flamin' Yawn lurves me. :3
Still not sure about that weird chick. She's on the fourth floor of the Richissme Hotel, in the room to the right of the elevator, standing by the wall. Saw her first sliding by me in this ghostly fashion on the second floor of some other building, and she said "no, you are not the one" before vanishing.
The hell?
A ghost?
Either way, if you see her again, interact with her anyways.
I always do. Every person I come across, I talk to. I even look in the trash cans. There's bound to be a reason why you can look in them.
There's always free items in trash cans of course. Like Ultra Balls!

Last I checked you said it was stupid even for Pikachu.
Honestly if they were gonna do that Raichu and Pichu should've had them as well.
I wonder what Pikachu would have sounded like if he didn't have his anime voice and used his game sound.

She wanted me to clean her litterbox. She's been glaring at me all day, demanding I stop playing with my Delphox and pamper her. So, I turned off the game, put it away, and I'm on the couch with Mabel. I may put in a movie for her.

That's a pretty good Nature for her too with Huge Power and all.

I don't see it.
You can tell with the colored text on the stats, Red means it raises it while Blue means it lowers it. Since Attack is Red and Special Attack is Blue that means that his Mawhile has an Adamant Nature.

He is weak. The only real use he has is that you can fight him once a day after Pokemon League making him a relatively decent source of experience.
I evolved my Flabebe, I think I'm done for today.

I found three on Route 8.
One got killed by a "lucky" critical hit, another got blown away by Whirlwind on accident, and the last one I was lucky enough to get right before heading back.
Now I'm trying to get a Gible. Its rather sad that I've already got an Axew and Bagon, shouldn't these guys be later in the game?
I'll trade you a Gible for a Bagon, Clefant.
I really want a Bagon.
So do I, and I don't want to wade through Driftlooms on Route 8 again to get one so let me breed one first.
No problem.

Given gen-wise... All 3 are considered mid-game, you can catch them after the 4th/5th gym.
Looks like I'm heading back to Route 8 for grinding and Absol-catching...
Tomorrow, that is. I'm going to go curl up with Mabel.
Okay, so apparently there's a game-breaking bug, where if you save outside of Lumiose City, the game freezes every time you load your save.
Just a heads-up.
Would Nintendo be able patch it?
Well, it seems that players have notified them.
Just depends on if, and when.
So along with the Weather Abilities being nerfed so it only last 5 turns when activated, Infiltrator can now bypass Substitute and Intimidate lowers Attack by 2 stages, I like that.
2 stages huh...
All the more to have Salamence in my future team...

I am already working on it because I managed to catch a Bagon, though I still prefer Moxie.
Okay I caught an Electrike and want a Houndour for it, who's willing to trade for it? I can't really trade now because my school's Internet doesn't seem to jive with my 3DS.
EDIT: Oh and I want a Female because I want to breed for another. The Electrike is also Female.
Sure, I'll trade ya. Didn't realize the one I caught was female. Just let me know when you're ready.
It'll most likely be tomorrow unless you're up at around 9:45 pm Pacific Time.
Runaway, my Kadabra, is now in league with the rest of my team. I'll take him on some catching sprees and get him up to par with my stronger Pokemon. Might toss my Lapras into the PC, though, pull out another mid-level, so I don't outright destroy every single Absol that I see. :P
I named my Lapras Anne Bonney. Bonus points if you know who Anne Bonney is.
I'm a night owl, Sakura. I don't usually sleep until between 4am and 6am.
Also we're in the same time zone.
And state too, if I'm not mistaken.
Yeah I was aware of that, it's just that I have anime club today so I'll be in school until 9:30ish.
well have fun with that :D
So... I want an Eevee. Where is the best place to catch Eevees in the wild?
QuickEdit: Nevermind, found where to find one from someone else. Lots of backtracking this playthrough for the sake of catching stuff. Good thing I bought about thirty or so Balls.
i forget the route number, but there's a flower field just north of cyllage town that i tend to find them in
Behind the movable boulder? Yeah, that's where Shane (on Facebook) found his.
that would be the one
Oh, that save bug? According to another person, it happened in Lumiose City, further confirmed by the music in that video. Perhaps the bug happens when you save outside in the street? I tend to use Pokemon Centers as my save points.
(http://i.imgur.com/j4LeTEq.jpg)
Neat.
That looks so badass.
What the young one said. That's pretty bad-ass.
My Floette knows Magical Leaf now, time to tear [parasitic bomb] up in the second Gym.
What was the 2nd gym again? Rock, right?
Yeah and I'm prepared with Quilladin, Wartortle, and Floette. Though I didn't expect it to learn Magical Leaf, I was just training my Aerodactyl a little. I wish I had more TMs, that Aerodactyl has a terrible starting moveset.
Yeaaaah Aqua Blitz and Tanngrisnir tore through that gym with ease! XD

Yeah Tsunami is going to help with that Amura.
Which gym is this? I've backtracked to Cyllage for capture purposes, so I'll be doing some grinding while there. What types should I work on?
The one in Cyllage actually. Also Tsunami finally learned Water Pulse and I beat the gym, now I'm back track a bit my myself so I can be closer to the Daycare.
Oh, okay. Already beat that gym a while ago and Lumiose is on my radar.
Oh yeah, I need to figure out my strategy for that gym when the time comes.
Electric gym, right? So, load up on Ground types, if I recall.
Yeah, but I should be fine when Chesnaught's by my side.
Time to bring out Dunsparce! :D
Oh, more information on the bug:
It happens when you save outside in the city, particularly near the taxis. If you save indoors, you should be fine. So, stick to saving in Pokemon Centers.
Okay that makes sense, I wasn't really going to save with the wonky camera angles anyway.
> looks at 3DS friend list
> 7 people are playing Pokemon X
Why is everyone going for the X version?
Mega Charizard X, that's why.
Sans MCX, X has cooler version exclusive Pokemon. Y only has the legendary going for it.
I wanted Y for Skrelp, having the Houndoomite was a bonus.
Oh god, St. Elmo looks absolutely epic in his Mega form. Every time any foe uses Anticipation, I say "anticipate this" and Mega-Evolve St. Elmo into kick-ass awesome badassery.
I went with Y cause Lou was getting X and personally, I think I like Mega Mewtwo Y more.
...I still might eventually buy X though just to get Mega Charizard X 8D
Yeah I liked Mewtwo Y better too, I like the Speed Boost.
I decided to play with Flamin' Yawn for a bit, since I was testing my game (had saved in Lumiose last), and he likes tummy rubs more than head rubs.
He still hates the puffs. I haven't found a single one that he likes.

Once I catch Mewtwo, I hope he likes tummy rubs, because he's getting a lot. Need to raise the "I hate your guts" rating up to happy, so lots and lots and lots of extra attention, and visits to the masseuse in the town that I forget the name of.

Good luck meeting it 20+ times.
To play Pokemon and waste another night doing just that, or to get on my computer, do some editing, and then play Pokemon while on the computer?
Multitasking sounds fun.

Dear Nintendo, please stop with roaming pokemon they are not fun or neat just annoying as [tornado fang].
Hey PB, what color puffs does your Pyre Sage like? I may offer those to Flamin' Yawn, see if he likes them. Thus far, he hates them all. Just belly rubs for him.
Pyre Sage seems to love the Chocolate ones I believe.
I'll try those. I had gone through all of them before and Flamin' Yawn just didn't like any of them. He either got angry or turned up his nose.
How can you tell if a Pokemon really likes a Puff?
My guess is that they don't do what Flamin' Yawn does every time I offer him one.
Okay, a friend wanted a Houndour also so I bred some.
I also put thought into the name of the one I'm gonna trade you, Sakura. Hope you like Shadow Flare.
That's fine as long as it's Female. I named the Electrike Boltedge.
Yeah, it's female. Also that's a cool name.
Just let me know when you're ready to trade so I can head upstairs and use WiFi.
Do I have to be in a Pokemon Center?
nope. you can trade from anywhere. just have to be online
which i need to go upstairs to be
I got my gible.
Yaaay.
Now I think I'll have to take a break, because I'm still not feeling too great and I have no time to play right now on top of that.
So you're not trading me that Bagon then?
Fine, I'll just catch my own then. :P
I've been at work all day.
I can't play pokemon at work.
Just caught an Emolga (Barbarella. Get it? Electric Barbarella!), a Houndour (Tindalos, after the story The Hounds of Tindalos), a Sigilyph (Yellow Sign, another Cthulhu Mythos reference), and an Eevee (Schizo, as I name all my Eevees) after fighting about fifty Snubbulls.
Wait, Eevee is a pokemon you can just get in the wild?
That's [tornado fang]ing genius.

Do you ever get to battle Shauna? Or is she simply the romantic interest?
If anyone wants any Kanto/Kalos starters, I have them all and can breed more.
Also yes you get to battle her a couple times.
And I see I'm not the only one who felt she was attracted to my character. Wow Nintendo, lesbian undertones. Bravo.
Mirby, Mirby, Mirby! Add me so I can confirm you!
I already did! Check again!
I got a Japanese Froakie in wonder trade. And a Magneton named Minovsky.
I got a Japanese Gible from some random Passerby who wanted to trade a few days back. That surprised me.
I saw Sakura popped up on my list finally.
And in Wonder Trade news, got a Japanese Stunfisk.
Is someone here named Minuit?
Saw this on Tumblr.

I do admit, Sycamore is quite attractive.
Yeah, I saw. Huzzah! XD
I'm Taylor Lyn in-game, so not me.
I'm Trak in-game, so it's not me.
Though, I've seen a lot of Pokemon hanging around Flamin' Yawn's pad while I was on the hunt for that elusive Eevee. Too bad you can't pet other people's Pokemon. :(
Not me... I have yet to start. 8D

I think Wily's gonna handle SkylaXElesa
Wait...does only one Pokemon need to carry a Lucky Egg for everyone to feel its effects?
That's... actually a good question
Hmm. I don't think they beefed up Lucky Egg. The most I can see is holder still gets 200%, those took part other than the LE gets 100%, the rest gets 50%.

So, I was rubbing Flamin' Yawn's belly and he practically exploded in little pink hearts. I guess he really liked that particular tummy rub. He likes the other tummy rub, but that one just rubbed him the right way. 8D
He still hates the puffs. Not sure why. Guess I'll feed them to someone else.
Does he turn his head away when you try to feed him?
If so you need to wait a bit for him to get hungry (or play a minigame).
That, or he has very exquisite taste for puffs, and the ones you have aren't exquisite enough.
He gets mad when I offer one. Played some minigames, though. Maybe I'll just drop one in the room and leave it there.
You shouldn't be dropping them. They need to be held in front of the Pokemon
EDIT: Oh, this was answered in the other topic...
I dunno, it keeps telling me that they get a boosted EXP even when they're not holding the Egg.
Quote from: Protoman Blues on October 18, 2013, 09:09:28 AM

God. Is Kalos some free EXP region or something!?
And how many hearts in affection do they have, PB? 3 hearts or more means more experience.
Also if you prevented them from evolving when they reached the proper level, they'll also get boosted experience (until you let them evolve)
I think only Pyre Sage has that many.
I see...
I'm pretty sure Tanngrisnir isn't 3 hearts or more, and he still got the boosted experience as well.
Well I read it was 3 hearts, in my experience it started happening between 2 and 3.
I'd need to check that level, but I'm not sure how.
I also need to switch Flamin' Yawn out and get to know the rest of my team.
My point still stands.
Quote from: Dr. Meowly II on October 18, 2013, 09:11:01 AM

Tap the Pokemon
Tap Switch
Check the Pokemon Amie stats there.
Looks like I'll be giving some love to the rest of my team tomorrow!
My entire team is currently at 5 hearts. I made sure of that before challenging the Elite 4, just to maximize the benefits.
Also, be careful when petting your Pokemon. You might accidentally punch them in the face or something.
Then again, some Pokemon don't seem to mind. I once punched Sharptooth the Tyrantrum in the face three times in a row on accident, but he didn't seem too angry about it. I think he knew it wasn't on purpose lol
I did that accidentally once. Been a bit more careful since.
just don't do it to mewtwo
you might get a game over >0<
I was just telling that exact thing to someone else! XD
But yeah, I plan to be extra careful with him and handle him with kid gloves. Lots and lots and lots of belly rubs.
NCL is aware of the bug.

Yeah Pokemon breeding is weird at times sometimes even when they do like each other they take longer to produce a egg than a pair that don't like each other and the latter does it really fast.
"fine, we'll [tornado fang], just get me out of here" - pokemon couples who hate each other
Sounds about right. XD
Hm, when you see other people's Pokemon in Pokemon-amie, is there any way to interact with them?
You can see their names, but aside from that it's more like they hang out, chat amongst themselves, then leave a gift.
You can leave Pokepuffs and they'll eat it but that's about it.
I should leave a puff for them, then.
And I must be sick when I feel too lousy to play.
I do hope I start feeling better soon. I have gyms to conquer.

Nah. Normal types are the types to just sit back and let the other types do all the work.
Those Fairy Gym trainers should be ashamed of themselves. Grimlock (my Tyrantrum, Rock/Dragon) took the entire gym almost single-handedly, requiring a switch-out only against Valerie's Sylveon.

Listen, the way this game lets you level up, all gyms are pretty much no match for you. I just got my 5th badge and Pyre Sage is already at LVL 51.
Also, is it just me or do certain Pokemon always get the best Nature. I mean I just caught a Gible not too long ago and it's the exact nature I want for it. I don't even care that much about natures, but I just find it bizarre.

But they're made of electricity and produce electricity, it's like saying humans are Masochists because we drink water and like to swim and get wet.
Pain is still pain!
Wouldn't that make all Pokemon Masochists then?

Yeah, I've noticed. It's just funny going in with a deliberately bad Type matchup and claiming victory anyway.
Also, Sylveon would have lost to a Dragon despite the switch, except that apparently he was too damn sexy for my Mega Charizard to willingly attack (lousy Cute Charm...). Thankfully my Gardevoir knows a player when she sees one.

Not that I've seen. The only conspicuously repeating Nature I've gotten (outside of breeding for it on purpose with an Everstone, that is) was the free Lapras being always Docile.
Then again, I haven't done a lot of repeat-captures. Aerodactyl and Onix, that's about it...
I pretty much have my team figured out and haven't really changed it. Only a few Pokemon get switched around, but most of them stay the same. Taken my Farfetch'd through four gyms so far. The types? Mostly fire, one water, one psychic, one normal, and a couple of mixed types.
And my Kadabra isn't even a permanent fixture. He's just there for grinding. Farfetch'd is there for catching. Lapras for the purpose of having one Water type, and Flamin' Yawn, St. Elmo, and Pavorotti are on the team for good.
By the time everything is said and done, my team will be a weird, unbalanced amalgam, with a Dunsparce because I like Dunsparce.
So.
QuoteAnother new feature is the furthering of IV transfer. Previously, when the parent Pokémon had power items attached, it guaranteed the transfer of one of the IVs, while several IVs were guaranteed to pass down. However, as of X & Y, if you have one of the parents hold the Destiny Knot item, then 5 IVs total from either parent will be guaranteed to be transferred
Also keep in mind that Pokemon in the Friend Safari are guaranteed 2 maxed IVs.

Maybe they wanted this game to be sort of like Pokemon Colosseum and encourage using a lot of Pokemon during the game or something. Maybe that's why it's so easy.
I don't mind the easy leveling. As an old Kanto/Johto veteran, I found the game pretty easy to get used to. Haven't really changed my battling style much, aside from that I use items more, my weaker Pokemon get a Rocky Helmet for good measure, and I'm more apt to use status-affecting moves than go at it through sheer brute force. For a while there, my one strategy was to have Flamin' Yawn use Fire Spin, then sit back and let it do all the work.
I just gave my Rocky Helmet to Tsunami since I know that he's the pure tank and therefore is going to be probably cause the least damage even with a Modest Nature.

Well it's working. After getting my 5th badge, I've decided to grind a bit to level up LT. ADORABOLT (Emolga) and TARGARYEN (Gabite)
Hm. I should evolve my Eevee and grind it up to snuff. Or, I could go get my Pikachu from the daycare, finally. He should be good to go. I'd drop off Barbarella (Emolga), but I don't think I'll get an egg from her and Mara Jade. XD
I guess I could see what gender my Pachirisu is. If it's male, perhaps he and my Plusle can get it on.
My Plusle will become a whore.
.....So what the [tornado fang] do you want to evolve your Eevee to since you have 8 choices.

It's not really a requirement, just an example. There's a list on Serebii that has everything you can do and how much effect it has.
Furfrou is actually pretty useful in combat. It's ability halves the damage it takes from physical attacks.

Honedge is actually one of my favorite new Pokemon (and its evolutions) so yeah. Always happy to have more.

Anyone know if the new movie can be watched online or anywhere else? My stupid Direct TV DVR thing only recorded 30 minutes of the movie. I'm sad, and kind of confused right now because i don't know whether to blame the provider service for the only 30 min recording or what. I was out lunch with family. :(
The dub that aired today? Someone will probably throw up a torrent in a day or two.
I thought about that they might put it on their little pokemon tv app. But I'm not going to squint my eyes looking at an hour and a half movie. Besides, that is not likely to happen. Though I don't have the app anyway.
Though I might have to get it in November for when they post Pokemon Origins Episodes up if they don't have plans to show it on TV. :P

For the Botique in Lumiose you simply have to do different things around town - work part time at the hotel, battle at the Battle Institute, take a tour of the museum with the audio guide, have Alexa at the Lumiose Press show you around time, etc. Basically you just do everything around town.
It also opens up other things like new hairstyles, discounts at the shops and so on.
As for the lost hotel guy you need to learn all the roller skate tricks from the people around Lumiose, there's 4 in total. It's not really a big deal though as the punk at the hotel just teaches you a fifth and final roller skating trick.
tl;dr Style =/= Fashion/Appearance
I was going to watch the movie today, but I was busy with other stuff that came up. The beginning actually bored me, and really, I don't like this Newtwo. I caught a bit more of it later when there was a lull in what I was busy with (mad cleaning) and what I caught wasn't much.
The voice actress they chose for Newtwo was very... bland. Her acting was so wooden that it gave me splinters.
Haven't played Pokemon yet today as I was busy cleaning all damn day, and then afterward, we hit the local beer cafe and got a six pack. I had a Milk Stout. It started off fine, but then just progressively tasted like [acid burst].

yep. it's nothing against anyone's trainers, it's just that you haven't met the proper requirements for those things yet.
I was more upset by the price. Haha.

Yea, and besides, it makes the character seem more female. Though I can only imagine Mewtwo being done with a male actor, despite being genderless pokemon. I never cared for the new forms much anyway. Though even with bad acting, I still would enjoy watching it just to see what happens and everything.
I'll pick it up on DVD when it comes out. Today just wasn't conducive to sitting down and watching it. I spent almost all day cleaning my grandmother's wreck of a house.

So I'm going to evolve my Fletchling because its evolved form has Flame Body so hatching eggs will be easier.
Caught an Absol after getting some trading fodder. Named her Beardy, and we've begun the task of grinding her up to par.
Then, I went to pet St. Elmo and accidentally punched him right in the gut. He didn't like that much. XD

Magma Armor has the same effect, and yeah, Slugma is my egg-hatcher for that reason.
Right now, Doublade is one of my favorite of the new 'mans, but I'm really debating whether my Player vs Player team should use Aegislash or Mega Gengar as my Ghost type 'man. Oh well, there's still plenty of time to think about that.

Man everyone is getting shinies, I wonder if I'll find one.
I don't have any shinies... ;_;
Since Beardy is at such a low level, I may just keep her in the team and grind with other Pokemon and let Exp. Share do the work. Either that, or each battle will just be a repeat of Beardy fainting and then Flamin' Yawn destroying the other Pokemon in revenge.
I don't know... a level 50 Delphox against some level 15-20-somethings... just doesn't seem fair... XD
And don't feel bad. I have no shinies, either.
That's what I plan to do once I get my Houndour.
So... Is anyone else at the Elite 4 yet?
Nope. I'm doing some grinding before I hit the fifth gym. I need to get some Pokemon up to par.
the only shiny i ever got was in crystal

Oh boy, a Skrelp that's at a higher level than my Absol. XD
Haha, are you going to use him? 8D
I wish I had a Good Rod so I can get a Skrelp.
I may use Slick Willy later on. Grinding and seeing what Mirby has available for trade.
That reminds me! Quickie! You haven't added my 3ds code yet! I think. o3o
I got a Carbink. >w<
Ferroseed fell on me. It was hilarious.
Tsunami evolved into Blastoise!
Arthur evolved into Chesnaught!
Got a Goomy and an extra Flabebe through Wonder Trade. Anyone want a white Flabebe?
I need to evolve my new Houndour, it's at lv 22 and the poor thing can't really damage stuff or survive stuff. Good thing it only needs 2 more levels.
Whew, almost have things ready to challenge the league... I hope...
Caught a random Pachirisu and am going to name it Almond.
Flamin' Yawn is getting very affectionate. St. Elmo is working his way up the love ladder, too. Need to work on Pavorotti, and Anne Bonney doesn't like head pets.

Added you, Sapph.
And Mabel demands I worship at the Altar of Mabel, so the game's off for the night.
Okay, so, taking on the league, my team consists of:
Jiraiya the Greninja
Kaiser the Tyrantrum
Ryuga the Lucario
Drake the Charizard
Virgo the Absol
Twist the Slurpuff
Wish me luck!
Good luck! Let me know the average levels, so I can work on training to have at least a brute force edge.

I thought so. As it turns out, there's a (fake) story about a circus dwarf who, in the middle of an act, fell into the mouth of a hippo. The hippo's gag reflex forced it to swallow the dwarf, killing them. That hippo's name was Hilda.
Didn't think it was cause of that, but it makes the name somewhat funnier.
Time for an update on my team (not that anyone cares!)
Lilligant lv. 50
Noivern lv. 52
Mawile * lv. 73 w/Mawileite
Goodra lv. 77
Hawlucha lv. 85
Delphox lv. 88
I'm currently in the process of swapping out my ingame team for better trained/bred 'mons.
Man, poor Houndoom's moves suck right now and I don't have any good TMs for it. This is probably going to be the most challenging Pokemon I've ever raised.
Five badges so far...
Lv44 Greninja
Lv44 (Mega)Venusaur
Lv45 Talonflame
Lv43 Gardevoir
Lv44 Raichu
Lv44 Aurorus
The electric gym made me realise I don't have a hard counter for that type... just Venusaur's Bulldoze. Not really sure if I need to plug that gap or not, or how I would do that.
My Kadabra is going back on the team for extra oomph after I'm done grinding.

Yeah it's fast, combine that with flying press and it's great fun to use.
That flying press squished my Floette and fainted it in the Fighting Gym, then Tsunami killed it in revenge.
Flamin' Yawn kills everyone in revenge. He enjoys it and reminisces back to when we first met as he thwomps some lower-level Pokemon in sweet, sweet revenge.

There really isn't many good places to level but with both the Lucky Egg and EXP Share it's not too bad, being a high rank in the Battle Chateau is a must - it also makes for a good source of income too!

The income is good to know. But it's essentially just grinding through the Elite 4 again huh?
If you combine the Lucky Egg, EXP Share and the EXP Gain O-Power you can farm pretty much anything. Another strategy is to get a Friend Safari with wild Audinos which give pretty decent EXP.
The Elite 4 is a viable method too but I particularly dislike it because you have to rewatach the scenes of them making their appearance every time.
There's a small post-game sidequest in Lumiose that leads to a daily battle with someone in that sidequest. As far as I know, their Pokemon are the highest leveled Pokemon for a Trainer in the entire game.

Ahhhh okay. Thanks a bunch!
Question: At the Scary House on Route 14, did anyone tip the guy for the story? And has anyone been having random encounters with a level 58 female Haunter in areas that haunter don't normally appear in? A friend of mine has apparently been getting 'haunted' by one until she caught it. o3o
Too many Luvdiscs! >_<
Luvdiscs are trading fodder. Put them up for Wonder Trade.
So, for the Elite 4, what level would be a good level to shoot for? Two of my current team are in their 50s before the fifth gym, while the rest are hovering around 40, except for Beardy the Absol, who will get tossed in the box for Kadabra. Anne Bonney may also get exchanged for either Thumper the Steelix or TrouserSnake the Dunsparce. Which would be a better choice for this gym?
For the Elite 4 the highest level is 68.
What gym are you at?
I'm at the fifth gym. I'm assuming it's an electric type gym, so Anne Bonney, my Lapras, is going in the box. Should I bring out my Steelix for this gym? Or would my Dunsparce be better?
Steelix, it's immune to electric attacks.
Bringing out Steelix and getting in some grinding!
Found the creepy lady Quickie was talking about.
Those Hex Maniacs are pretty creepy
Finally got the power back in Lumiose and I'm trying to explore it, it's confusing.
Yeah, I was going through the alleys for battles, and stopping by the Richissme Hotel for some cash. I'm in Shalour now for grinding.
I did some more Wonder Trades, got some fodder, got a Charmander, a Fennekin, and another Eevee.
So, who wants a Charmander, or a Fennekin? The Eevee I might keep, but the other two are up for trade for something good.
I'd like a Fennkin and a Charmander when I get home, do you want anything in particular?
What do you have? I could use some more Plant types, so I'm mainly looking for a Bulbasaur or a Chespin.
Sorry I don't have a Bulbasaur and my Chesnaught is male so I need a Ditto to breed it.
Have an Onix? I'm looking for one of those, as I killed the one I came across.
Is your Steelix Male?
My Steelix is female.
As for Charmander and Fennekin, I offered them on TFN, too, so I'm going to see if anyone there is interested, too.
You can breed your own Onix then.
Ah, okay. Just need to figure out what to breed her with. XD
I'll need to catch some more trading fodder for Wonder Trade. I got some... thing that evolved immediately into a... Gausgeist? Something like that? Has a Jack-O-Lantern face on its belly.
Yeah that Jack o Lantern is interesting, the smaller it is the weaker an faster it is while it gets stronger and slower the bigger it is.
Hmm... I suppose now would be a good a time as ever to catch more trading fodder. And I don't completely get how the friend safaris work, aside from the obvious of 2 pokemon each with a specific type for each friend. Still have no idea how the 3rd pokemon appears. >3>
I carry roughly fifteen Poke Balls at any time, and the last trading fodder I caught went through two Great Balls and three Poke Balls before I got frustrated and chucked a Timer Ball.
At a Dugtrio.
Yeah Dugtrios can be frustrating to catch.

Cool, then I'll just import mine from the DS games when that becomes an option. I'm not wasting time chasing down a single legendary bird.
[spoiler=Stupid Roaming Pokemon rant, don't read.]I'm not too fond of roamers because I either have to drop lots of money on Repels and bring a pokemon under a certain level so they don't repel the Roamer only to have it not be strong enough, fast enough, or equipped with Mean Look and then have the [tornado fang]er run away before I can do anything, or try to get it without repels but have it dart off to a new area before I arrive where I needed to go/before I see it because I kept getting HootHoot encounters instead.
And of course, not being able to know where it is until I find it once isn't fun either! I don't like having to rely on luck.[/spoiler]
What Mewtwo isn't a Roamer.
I could've sworn somebody here said Mewtwo was a roaming pokemon.
No he's not, you find him in a Cave in the Pokemon Village.
you do realize you can check the pokedex to see where they are, right? it's not relying on luck, it's checking the pokedex for their current location and getting there, chasing them down.

So if I got Froakie that would make Articuno the one I have to chase right?
No you got Moltres, I got Articuno.
Yeah, Froakie gets you Moltres.
Which sucks. I wanted Zapdos and didn't realize starter choice determined which bird you got.
Also I got Moltres by checking his location in the Pokedex. Yes, it was annoying, but at least I knew where he was.
Why does this electric hamster has Rest?
So Fennekin gets you Zapdos?
Yes it gets you Zapados.
i so wanted to name that zapdos Blitzwei... :C

I got a Froakie from Germany. Just traded an Abra and a few Panchams. Been getting some decent trades in Wonder Trade. I got an Amuara or whatever it's called. The Water type Fossil Pokemon. Got a Rhyhorn, too. And another Eevee!
Okay I'm home, I just need to deal with this random Quagsire I found.
You might like Amuara, Quickie. I love her myself!
Got the Quagsire, going to name it Swampy.
Let me power up the system and the Fennekin is yours.
I hope you like that Pachirisu.
I will breed it with my other one and have a litter! XD
Yeah I honestly didn't have much, and that Pachirisu just got randomly picked.
Also bought new clothes in Laverre Town, I spent 12,000 for 3 items but it's better than the stuff at Lumiose.
The facial recognition software in Pokemon-amie isn't very precise. It can't quite figure out a wink, and I often have to take my glasses off for it to recognize anything.
I just need to level up my Floette one more time and then I can finally use the Shiny Stone on it to evolve it.
When I took my glasses off, it surprised my Steelix. XD
And now Iris is even more badass.
I wonder by the time I start playing, all of you would be post-game already. And bored. ._.
With how I'm spending most of it grinding, I'll still be playing by the time you start.
I should be starting later tonight... Maybe.
Stupid delayed guidebook. >_>
I keep doing the hotel jobs in Lumiose, and I finally got into that snooty store. Didn't buy anything. I was just happy to finally get in there.
Then, I went to the Poke Ball Boutique and bought some Balls.
Did they sell PokeBalls in nice frilly dresses!?
Do Luxury Balls count? XD
I put Beardy the Absol and Tindalos the Houndour in the daycare. I hope to have a litter, but they hate each other.
They had better have hate sex.
The only thing is they will have a lower chance of producing eggs, but they should have hate sex eventually.
They are just being tsundere.
AND NO LUXURY BALLS DON'T COUNT
What about Heal Balls?
HEAL BALLS ARE FLOWERY I WANT FRILLY
I wasn't sure if my Absol and Houndour could mate. Good to know that they eventually will.
If they are in the same Egg group, they will eventually pop babies.
"I-it's not like I l-like you or anything... But our Trainer wants Eggs."
Yeah as long as it didn't say they like to play with other Pokemon then they can mate.
I GOT A CHARMANDER!
Thanks Quickie! <3
The guy said that they just didn't like each other. Thus, eventual hate sex.
So I got a Shelmet and a Karrablast and both are female. I can have an Esclavier if I wanted to.
Either tonight or tomorrow I'll finally go conquer the fifth gym. I have a Delphox, a Charizard, a Lucario, a Kadabra, a Farfetch'd, and a Steelix. The Delphox and Farfetch'd are level 50+, the rest are 40s and I think the Steelix is hovering around high 30s.
Think the team is good to go?
You should crush him, yes!
Tonight will be the curb stomp, then.
Aromatisse sounds like Michael Jackson. :o
I tried to pet my Lapras's head and she shook it.
She doesn't like head pets. At all.
"ONLY PET MY CHEST. You're lucky I let you pet me at all."
Got the sixth badge, I think I'm done for today.

That would be the Steelix. I'd need to search my TMs and teach someone a Poison-type move.
Or I could grind like hell and go at it with sheer brute force.
Well the highest is 42 so I don't think you need to grind more.
Eh, I'll grind anyway and catch some trading fodder for Wonder Trade.
I got a Ditto in this last trade! :D
I'm going to start raising a team of Dragons. Because why not.
Plan on it containing Salamence, Garchomp, Haxorus, Hydreigon, Goodra, and Noivern.
And they will ALL know Draco Meteor.
I wish Serebii had images of the list of Female Trainer clothes. X(
I got a level 58 Ariados from Wonder Trade, so she's now on my team. Gave her some battling experience and some love. With a Steelix by her side, this gym should be easy. Though, i'd like to get Thumper up to a higher level. She's at 48, thereabouts.

Does anyone else have them? Or the Male Clothes?
Dropped my new Ditto off at the daycare with my Eevee.
Play nice, kids! I expect an egg when I return.

serebii's got all the male clothes images up
just not the female clothes images
Queasy stomach won... So I'm back home.
And finally started up X.
Picked Chespin, and currently in the Santalure Forest.
Okay, my Dragon team is ready to be trained! As it stands right now, this is it.
Candygram (Gible - ♂, Lv 26)
Boomervitar (Axew - ♀, Lv 13)
Goolia (Goomy - ♀, Lv 5)
Bill Nye (Bagon - ♂, Lv 5)
Bruce Wayne (Noibat - ♂, Lv 1)
Ringo Starr (Deino - ♂, Lv 1)
Huh. The game saves really fast now.
Also, caught a lot of Pokemon, at the end of Route 4 now. About to head into Lumiose City.
Current X team of Chespin, Fledgling, Pikachu, Ralts, Bunnelby and Litleo.
And since Lumiose is Lumiose, headed into Y at the moment.
Chose Fennekin.
Be careful in Lumiose. Don't save in the street.
And will my Ariados be good enough for the fairy gym? She knows two poison moves.
She should be.
Good.
Now to head to the daycare and see if my Ditto did its job and I have an egg. Then, some grinding for fun, then off to the Richissme Hotel for cash, and through alleys for more grinding, then storm the Battle Chateau.
It's mainly for the Steelix's benefit. I want her at level 50 so she'd be equal in the team.
I got a Ditto through the GTS, which is awesome. I put up my Heracross up for it, but it was worth it (since I have another Heracross in SoulSilver I can eventually trade over).
Just caught Destoroyah (Yvetal). Yay!
How many badges do you get before you get to that point?

Posted on: October 21, 2013, 01:43:33 PM
Oh right, it was the 7th Badge.
Okay because I just got my 6th yesterday.
I have a nice group thus far in the high 50's/low 60's.
I like my team so far.
Well I just saved the Pokeball Factory with my Houndoom, at least she can handle herself now.
You should be getting close to the Houndoomite soon, I believe.
That's cool. Also Vileplume's head looks so fluffy.

EEE~ I has Absolite! Dream come true~ MEGA ABSOL! X3
Going through the Poke Ball factory currently, just got my sixth badge.
Posted on: October 21, 2013, 09:22:59 PM
Okay, conquered the Poke Ball Factory, went out and bought some clothes because I have money to burn, and I'm going to grind a bit, earn some more money, sell a few items, switch my team's positions around.
I assume the next gym is an ice gym. Fire types are good, if I recall? Or should I grind something else?
Actually the next one is a Psychic type gym, pack some dark types.
Quacklin's got Dark and Bug type moves, and I'll teach Ariados a Dark-type move. Pavorotti may end up learning a Dark type move. For this, I may power through it with a Normal/Fighting/Steel/Bug/Poison combo. Flamin' Yawn and St. Elmo will be around for brute force backup. Should I pull out my Kadabra, or keep the Steelix on the team?
Probably the Kadabra, though an Alakazam would be better.
I pretty much plowed through that Gym with Targaryen (Garchomp).
I'll probably do the same with my Houndoom Treble. Might have Iris, Starscream, and Tsunami as backup.
Also, Pyre Sage is so powerful he pretty much roll'd 20s against them as well.
Kadabra will evolve via trade, right? If so, who wants to help me force an evolution? I have swap fodder with you to force Runaway to evolve.

A FULL FU MANCHU

I love the lines of the trainers in this game

Pretty much. Or "best possible outcome" so to speak.
You know what I love? When I use FLY and Szin, after jumping on the bird, gives a fist pump in the air when he's flying. Kinda like Bastion when he gets on Falcor. XD
I just wish the animation actually used the Pokemon with Fly. I want to see myself astride a Charizard, dammit!
Same with Surf. It would be kickass to be riding a Gyarados through the water!
Okay Quickie I'm ready.
Yaaaay! Thanks! Now to play with him, and then we go grinding so he's at the same level as everyone else.
I got my Female Michael Jackson and a Sneasel, I'm happy. 8)
Lol, I know of Lumiose, hence why I saved right before the 2 Trainer guides.
As for Y, current team is Fennekin, Metapod, Pidgey, Zigzagoon, Pikachu and Scatterbug. Just training up for Viola.
I got a Delibird and named it Santa.

"Runaway seems interested in the other Pokemon's scent..."
Oh really, now? [eyebrow]
Don't worry, you can have your turn with my Ditto. 8D
Must be the musk coming from all that sweat. 8D
He was interested in a Flabebe.
Runaway, you're so big that you'd kill it if you got it on! XD
Just ask the Ditto to transform into the Flabebe you love so much.
Man I'm getting dirty thoughts, I think it's because of that picture of Mewtwo all sweaty that keeps popping up. :o

Let's make it worse. 8D
In Pokemon-amie, belly rubs for Alakazam tend to be crotch rubs.
And during grinding in the Battle Chateau? Runaway lamented on wanting me to play with him some more.
And then came the interest in... musk.
Since evolving, Runaway has become quite a passionate Pokemon.
Runaway is so depraved. 8D
Now for a serious question to those who use Aegislash.
Say... Aegislash is faster than its opponent. It uses Iron Head, hence changing into its Blade Forme. After dealing damage, does it automatically change back to Shield Forme, or do I have to use my next turn to change it back, say via King's Shield?
I think you have to use the next turn to change it back.
Yeah, Aegislash only defaults to Shield Forme when you send him out, even if you swapped him out while in Blade Forme. If you want to return to Shield Forme you need to use King's Shield on your next turn.
... Hmm. I guess that's why he's slow, and King's Shield has increased priority. Thank you for the information. You have helped me towards PokeWorld domination!!
Well Aegislash is one of my favorites from this generation, so I'm quite familiar with his capabilities.
With that in mind... Having a tough time assigning HM moves to my game team.
Strength on Cresnaught... Surf and Waterfall on Greninja... Fly on Talonflame (until Salamence comes)...
Cut on Delphox? Aegislash? No way Malamar can learn Cut...

Okay maybe I don't have to spend too much money, I'm quite frugal even in Pokemon games at times.
So, while toodling around in Pokemon-amie, I've learned that pokemon have places they like to be pet and places they hate to be pet. This is what I've learned so far:
Greninja likes it's tongue/scarf to be pet.
Honedge doesn't like it's cloth arm thing to be pet.
Slurpuff likes that round thing on top of it's head to be pet.
Absol doesn't like it's horn to be pet and likes that hair tweak thing on the opposite side of it's face to be pet.
More research into this must be done...
Quote from: Sakura Leic on October 22, 2013, 04:50:52 AM
Hey does Yeveltal have a regular Legendary catch rate?
Legendaries that need to be caught to progress the story generally have higher catch rates. Case in point, Zekrom/Reshiram in BW, and Giratina in Platinum.
Actually Giratina has a catch rate of 3, I think only Reshiram and Zekrom have a catch rate of 45 since Giratina can be defeated while the other 2 must be caught.
Huh. I caught Giratina in one Dusk Ball in the Distortion World... *shrug*
Still, point stands. 8D

PFFFT. That's nothing. I caught him with a quick ball on my first throw, on my first turn, on a complete whim! 8D
Yeah, Quick Balls are my key for catching the hard-to-catch. Though, I'm saving the Master Ball for Mewtwo.

I still prefer Dusk Balls, since you know... Mewtwo's in a cave. 8D
Eh, we'll see how lazy I get. I'll chuck some Dusk Balls at him, some Quick Balls, and if he still busts out, he's getting that Master Ball.
AH EVIL WAITER AND WAITRESS! :o
Yeeeeep! XD

Oh, and PB...
SKITTY IS CUTER AT DOING THAT THAN PACHIRISU
Dragalge really is a glass cannon in some cases, too bad it's not as badass as my Florges. All shall fall against Florges!
So, Runaway's Nature is Bold, and his Characteristic is that he hates to lose. His affection level is at four. Could that be why he seemed so... amorous?

Runaway's given me the weirdest starting text. Flamin' Yawn is at LUV U 4EVAH level, and I haven't gotten such weird starting text.
Off to the Battle Chateau to do some grindin'.
DAMMIT RUNAWAY, NOT THAT KIND OF GRINDING
(http://dvg7rwb00cnlr.cloudfront.net/30f9e860-386a-11e3-8978-068eb59b5b51.jpeg)
I'm amazed at how much this looks like me. Or at least, an outfit I'd wear.
So here is my current team:
Pyre Sage (Delphox) - Lv.69
Aqua Blitz (Blastoise) - Lv.65
Iron Fist (Lucario) - Lv.64
Damian (Talonflame) - Lv.64
Borealia (Aurorus) - Lv.63
Targaryen (Garchomp) - Lv.61
Tanngrisnir (Gogoat) - Lv.57
Couple that I'm still leveling:
Lt.Adorabolt (Emolga) - Lv.41
Blaziken (Hate that I cannot rename him) - Lv.44
Ocean Master (Lapras) - Lv.36
I still have many more I need to level up. They'll be on the next team! XD
I want so badly to rename my Ariados. I'd call her Typhoid Mary. But, I can't. :(
I'm glad I got her through Wonder Trade, though. She's been a terrific asset.
And the last weird starting text I got before I decided to stop playing from sheer exhaustion?
"Runaway looks at Trak with trusting eyes."
I am both flattered and weirded out. I should rename him to Doctor Love. 8D
I get those weird lines all the time from Darunia, my Pangoro.
Also I'm naming every Pancham I get after a Goron.
Darunia loves you.
So much.

Hey hey hey I don't have a female Pangoro for him yet. D:
also i feel it would be weird if i raised one of his offspring for that purpose... I also want to find one with its Hidden Ability before I breed.
Well, Runaway will soon go spend time with a Ditto.
But, he'd rather spend time with me.
I'm sorry, Runaway, I don't think it would work out. Then again, there was that one weird Pokedex entry or something somewhere about some kid turning into a Kadabra? And then the Sinnoh folk tales of people marrying their Pokemon...

So since I'm getting close to the end of the game and have been thinking about my Battle Box. I definitely want to fill it with a Escavalier, Florges, and Aerodactyl but still don't know what to do for the other half. I do need some Physical Defense too among other things. It's really hard to think of things I can use, especially since I'm not using Metagross anymore.
Well I now have like 5 or 6 Charmanders to trade since trying to get a Female one. Haha, I think I'll use them to get the other starters...or maybe some X-clusives!
You're welcome!

Posted on: October 22, 2013, 01:42:08 PM
And, so far, Doug is the only mon I've gone about to 'properly' super train.
I need to give Quacklin' False Swipe again. He was my primary capture tool. Or, I could dig out a low-level for capture purposes...
Nah, False Swipe.
After I go on the hunt for a female Abra that I can name Norma Rae. I need to mate her with Runaway.
RUNAWAY MUST MATE
A good [tornado fang] might calm him down a bit! He's so Bold and hates to lose.
Hmm Clyoster is looking appealing to me, I need to look into that more.
"Runaway is curious about Trak's Bag."
Finish this battle and you might get a treat.
Brain, y u give me bad mental images?
...
On second thought, reading through here, never mind.
On a side note: Looker is back and he's annoying.
My Shellgon is a few levels short of becoming a Salamance in X. I need to find some Pokemon to fill the two vacant slots on the team. I currently have Chestnaut, Blastoise, Blaziken, and the aforementioned Shellgon-- I wonder what other bases I need to cover type-wise.
You need a Poison or Steel Type.

He's a detective guy that was introduced in Platinum, then appeared in the postgame for Black and White. And now he's back for the postgame in X and Y.
I personally think Looker is awesome.
I dunno, he just makes me want to punch him in the face for some reason. >3>
So far, no luck on finding Runaway a mate. Great leveling experience, but I have a 1:4 chance of finding a female Abra, with Abra frequency being more of a 1:10 chance encounter, thereabouts.
At first I was pretty sure the whole "shiny rate being increased" thing was bullshit, but now...
(http://i.imgur.com/Vn8UNmN.jpg)
Just got my second shiny in X!
Nice.
I've heard someone got 2 shiny Skrelps.
And still no shinies for ol' Sapph.
I just caught a Rotom.
I still feel really good about that random battle, for some reason!
I never found the Houndoomite on Route 16, and Serebii was really vague about it.
It's a post game thing, and you need to do a string of events to find it.
They should have specified that.
They did, in the list of mega evolutions. o3o
Also, EEE! I now has a ditto with Imposter! @w@
No I meant on the item list of Route 16, that's the place I'm looking at.

Hurry and grab the game! I'm prolonging the game by grinding constantly and doing other stuff between badges. I'll still be playing by the time you get the game.

Try and convince my parents to buy me a 3DS XL and Pokémon Y while we're trying to avoid forclosure. 8D
Anywho, Epsurr (http://www.dorkly.com/article/55675/the-internet-really-loves-espurr) is the internet's new favorite 'mon apparently.
It's the stare!
I named my Espurr "Mabel." She stares at me like I'm a dumbass. A very fascinating dumbass, like some bizarre medical specimen, but a dumbass nonetheless.
ESPURR IS WATCHING YOU PEE B(
So... Anyone with Y version willin' to toss me an electrike, heracross, and larvitar for fodder and/or an IOU for their X version counterparts? '>.>

My Lapras, Anne Bonney, doesn't like her head pet, either. She shakes your hand away. My other Pokemon like their head pets, but I keep to mainly belly rubs so I don't accidentally punch them in the face. Dragging the stylus helps to avoid that.

Posted on: October 23, 2013, 06:28:58 AM
Played with Runaway in Pokemon-amie. He now loves me forever. As does Pavorotti. Same with St. Elmo. Counting Flamin' Yawn, that's four on my team who love me forever, and four who will get lots and lots of crits.
Taught Pavorotti Shadow Claw, and my Ariados learned Infestation. Those two should be good to go for the next gym, along with Quacklin's Night Slash and Fury Cutter. Runaway is at level 52, currently, so he's not too far behind everyone.
Though, I wish he'd stop sniffing me. It's getting weird.
He loves your musk.
From all that running in the tall grass.
And constant grinding in the Battle Chateau. We'll be heading back to grind some more.
Please be gentle, will ya?
Hmm I'm wondering how effective a Choice Scarf on a Florges would be.

Yeah I notice that happens to a few people, of course it didn't happen to me.
Also by calculating a max Speed of a Florges plus a Choice Scarf it ends up being 409...yeah I think I'm going to do that and then it'll be the Special Attack Monster Tank from hell.
I think I'll also give it Nature Power which turns into Tri-Attack in buildings which I assume is where Online Battles take place.
I didn't get it in my X, nor my first run of Y.
This Ball will be traded, and kept safe in my X later.
And yes, I'm doing a second run of Y now.
Picked Froakie, of course, and Bulbasaur when the time comes.
I guess that makes sense since it would get you all the starters.
Yep, my plan was to get them on X.
Y will be one Kalos starter only.
Also, I'll catch a bunch of Scatterbugs in the future.
Since I'm confined to the Jungle Vivillon... Need to trade for other Scatterbugs to get the other Vivillons.
Guess I should get a Scatterbug and evolve it so you can get a High Plains Vivillon.
A Scatterbug is fine, don't need to trouble you to evolve it.
It will take a while, since I want to get that False Swipe in X first... And Fly. How early is Fly in this gen?
You get Fly after the fourth gym, or at least are able to use it once you have that one.
Well now I'm trying to prevent the world from going to hell because of a guy who thinks everyone deserves to die.
Who is this guy? That giant you encounter for a split second outside the Power Plant or somewhere in that general area?
I fought Viola in the Battle Chateau. It was nice to have a challenge for once. Hopefully more gym leaders show up there so I can battle them, rather than the weak-ass NPCs, particularly that one [sonic slicer] who says I picked my outfit from a garbage can. Destroyed her utterly in a satisfying curb-stomp.
Nah the dude who was acting like a Pedo with Diantha. The other dude is another story.

Hmm... I guess I'll back track for a bit, and catch some Scatterbugs first...
Can someone confirm what the time frame in the game qualifies as night time? I had an easy time evolving my Tyrunt because I always play my game during the day, but getting Auroros is pretty ambiguous.
9PM seems to be when night falls... not sure about when sunrise is... probably 5AM or 6AM.
Given how you can only find Mega Stones just before nightfall (8-9pm), it's safe to say 9pm onwards is night.
Okay, so let's just get right to it. I know no one is ready yet, but how does the X & Y crowd feel about a Pokemon Tourney?
Still not ready. :O
And I had fun streaming. MagmaDragoon is a well-behaved fire pokemon. >U<
Yes I so want that, though I still need to think of my team. I don't even know what other types I want.

Don't worry. We have to set everything up first and decide on rules & all that happy nonsense.
I know, I also need the Friend Safari for myself. I would like a Flabebe with a Max Speed IV.
Well eventually. I think it'd be fun!
Let me get post-game and I'll let you know. :P
I just got the 8th badge. I'm on my way to be the very best!
Okay I think I got a good idea for a team for now.
Meinshao
Florges
Aerodactyl
Esclavier
Dusknoir
Starmie
I think this might be pretty balanced.
I don't play competitively so meh, not for me sorry. D:
and for all those in the post-game or soon to be there, track down a Backpacker in the various Hotels around the region (sans the one in Lumiose) for four days (doesn't have to be in a row) and talk to him each time. trust me on this one.
My team is nowhere near balanced, but four out of six love me forever and get more crits and have higher evasion. Behold my unbalanced team.
Delphox
Charizard
Lucario
Farfetch'd
Alakazam
Ariados
What we lack in balance and type advantage, all this grinding will make up for with sheer brute force.
Hmm, I don't mind...
IF ONLY HYDREIGON WASN'T NERFED 8|
Then again, I protoman to fence.

Online battles even the levels out automatically usually to 50 or 100. Grinding doesn't matter, also the Pokemon-Amie Crit hax doesn't work Online either.
Well, then here's to many a defeat because I can't make a balanced team. :P

[spoiler]Hint at a possible new region with new Pokemon that might be included on the card but we're unaware it's there cause we can't rip open the ROM like we did with BW to find out about B/W Kyurem? I dunno, currently it does nothing. Here's some interesting things.
-You can search on GTS for a Pokemon named Hoopa (I've seen someone offering a Pokemon and wanting Hoopa in return) and yet... currently Hoopa doesn't exist...
-Backpacker dude mentions he's from a region that isn't any of the regions we know.
-He mentions both an amazing battle facility and a Champion who is "something else"
-The Strange Souvenir is modeled after a protector of his region, but it looks like no Pokemon we've seen before.
-Couriway Town has some railway tracks that head east into a mountain... They're currently unused
-There's only 69 new Pokemon in X/Y, and counting Mega Evolutions there's still less than 100 new Pokemon, which is less than Johto introduced
So perhaps come December when Pokemon Bank releases... We'll find out the use of that item. We'll go to that new region based on another European country, with new Pokemon (including Hoopa?) and begin our journeys anew.
Or something like that.[/spoiler]
@Sakura: Levels are only evened out if you choose the option to even them out. You can, if you want, have a battle with all your Pokemon at their actual levels.
True but for something like this it would be fair to even them out.
Can't you also set battles where you're only allowed 3 Pokemon each?

I meant that for Quickie's GTS question.
A tournament sounds like fun. But I'd probably get my ass handed to me in round 1, knowing my luck. XD
Yeah it probably is, really need to think carefully on this.
My Farfetch'd now loves me forever. Working on Ariados now. Lots of pets, playtime, and Puffs.
As for GTS, no luck as I had nothing that anyone wanted for a Bulbasaur.
What you do is simply deposit a Pokemon in there. Then it'll ask you which Pokemon you're looking for. After all of that, leave it there and check in an hour/the morning.
Ah, okay. Time to put up some trade fodder...

Wonder Trade is freakin' addicting and I don't know why.
Does anyone have a female sneasel they'd be willing to trade for breeding purposes? I'm trying to breed one that has Foresight so I can use it to capture ghost types easier.
I have one I got through Wonder Trade. She's in the daycare, but I can pull her out for breeding. I want to eventually breed her, too, so feel free to send over trading fodder.

YOU ARE AN EVIL MAN SAPPH
Well, I was on my way out of the route to get to a pokemon center because I wasn't carrying a mon with fly, and it popped out like "Here I am~". >^<
I got my fifth Eevee, an Archen, and a Larvitar from Wonder Trade. I put up a blue Flabebe in GTS. Hopefully someone will give me a Squirtle.
Man I need to get the next Gym Badge to use Waterfall so I can get Dark Pulse so my Houndoom can become the monster it deserves.

Wait, blue Flabebe?
Also, this second run of Y is the fastest thus far. Got the correct Froakie on the first try. Got the correct Bulbasaur on the first try. And of course that Light Ball on my Pikachu. So... Trading away 70 Poke Balls to my X. 8D
And now plowing through the Looker Missions while I wait for my Sneasel and Sentret (with foresight) to get it on and have an egg. 8D

I cannot get past the Unlimited Puzzle 3rd.
I'm really bad at that puzzle game on higher difficulties.
I need to move up to the Expert setting.
I tried the Super Training. I think I'm not that good at aiming those balls. Though whacking the normal black punching bag was fun.
I guess I'll stick with the good old EV grinding.
The trick is to hold down the stylus while you aim.
Hmm. I guess I will try that later. Thanks for the tip.
Good Lord Zygarde was a [sonic slicer] and a half to catch! [tornado fang]ing thing wouldn't stay caught in the ultra balls I threw at it (and, stupid me, I forgot to stock up on dusk balls)! Had to restart twice before it stayed caught! -_-
Also, it's Dex entry hints at either Z version, X2/Y2, or possibly the first ever dowloadable expansion for a pokemon game (as we are now at a point with technology where they can do that).
Sapph.
I spoilered something when replying to Wily earlier.
It pretty much confirms we're getting some form of expansion.
It doesn't confirm anything, it's just speculation.
Nothing more, don't treat as such until it is. Otherwise you're just setting yourself up for disappointment.
okay then
so literally everything in that spoiler box will lead to absolutely nothing and it is the greatest troll gamefreak has ever pulled

Maybe you're just reading too deeply into it.
a guy who tells you about his region that has a battle facility and a champion then hands you an item that has no currently known effect (and can only be sold for $5) that is modeled after a protector of his region and also tells you that his region isn't kanto, johto, hoenn, sinnoh, or unova... and also says (breaking the fourth wall) that "you'll see in due time"
how the [tornado fang] else does one read into that
Obviously it doesn't mean nothing but that doesn't mean it's hinting at a whole new region in XY itself. It's possible sure but it's not guaranteed.
Going around like it is is stupid.
If I had a Haunter, I'd be tempted to name it after something in the Cthulhu Mythos. Haunter of the Dark is where I would assume the name came from, so Nyarlathotep would be a suitable nickname.
Please don't start, you two.

I should catch a Tentacool and name it Cthulhu.
Given the number of... Appendages it gets as a Cruel...

The Patch to fix Lumiose city and GTS issues has now been released in the eShop.
Even after applying this patch... I'm still saving inside buildings in Lumiose City. >_>
http://www.twitch.tv/vixynyan = back to the game again, trying to attempt the last 3 gyms hopefully. XD
Doing some random 3DS stuff before starting the game the first few minutes. :O
Finally got my Yveltal, nicknamed him "Huginn" (can anyone guess where this name comes from?), and has a Mild Nature that us mischievous personality.
Already at the next town where the 8th and final Badge is but I need to go about finding the Gym Leader first.
Also do the Clothing Stores cycle through new articles of clothing each day? Been looking to get a red hoodie and blue cargo shorts for a while now, and then there's the white socks. Also does the Male Trainer get more Haircut options aside from the three at the Salon (Trim, Short, Medium)?
And do we have a Trio Legend in this game like in the past? I do see any legends about 3 Legendary Pokemon (like with Articuno, Moltres, and Zapdos) and just the two X and Y Legendaries.
They do cycle everyday, but they don't have red hoodies.

Very nice. Very pink! XD
And yeah, I like that theme a lot.
Long as we're talking awesome music in this game, I was really impressed by the Kalos Legendary battle theme.
And Team Flare MOST DEFINITELY has the very best "evil team battle" theme of the series. I'm honestly sad to progress so far as to not have to fight them anymore...
So, breeding a Level 55 female Dragonite with a sub-Level-10 male Whooper, the Daycare Man tells me that they don't like each other very much. So I wait for the angry-hate-sex shpiel, and...in no time at all I have FOUR eggs. I'm a little suspicious of that one. -u-'
now you just need to have summadat hot skitty on wailord action :D
(also i love the legendary theme... wait until you hear the kanto legendary battle theme)
The daycare guy claims he doesn't know how the egg gets there, but we know. He sits in the bushes and watches.
After all, to figure out exactly how a Skitty/Wailord union would work, this act is something that one needs to see for themselves.
or you can just use google images
there's plenty of evidence as to how it works there, and it's safe for work too!
or at least some of it is; i don't want to look myself in case there's some nsfw evidence too D:
I'll pass, thanks. :P
Hot Diglett on Wailord Action is better in my opinion.
OH GOD THE IMAGERY
I don't need Google. My brain is twisted enough.
DIGLETT DIG DIGLETT DIG DIGLETT DIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIG!!!
As for just the regular trainer battle theme, it has one of the best to the loop parts of any Pokemon battle theme (dat 1:05 mark baby) XD

but did you catch dat legendary bird?
I'm afraid she won't stream any more past what she's done. Sounded like she was positive she was done streaming. :-/
i wasn't talking about the streaming
i was just talking about catching it
Sucked that I have to miss out on chatting with people since I don't have the freedom use my brother's desktop at anytime. :'(
Anyone know how to get Energy Ball on Route 20?
I need to be up early for Sunday school.
I will make sure to bring the game.
St. Arceus, please protect my team in our battles and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil of Team Flare. I humbly ask that my Poke Balls be true and thine captures be sure. May the Revives be plentiful, and may my team never know fainting, just as you have fainted for our sins. In Arceus's name, amen.

I won my first random Wifi battle...with DRAGONITE POWER!
(then Ruri kicked my ass -u-')
The random battle was funny. 3v3, and every single fall went to the "wrong" type matchup. Their Sylveon beat my Gardevoir, my Doublade beat their Greninja, their Mega Gardevoir beat my Doublade, and my Dragonite beat both Mega Gardevoir and Sylveon.
Also cleared the Elite Four and did some Friend Safari-ing. Got my first non-event Shiny in any Pokemon ever: Shiny Fraxure! With Hidden Ability Unnerve!
...which nobody in their right mind would ever pick over Mold Breaker.

I actually tried to Dragon Pulse a Gardevoir in another match earlier today, pretty embarrassing even if I did still win. I'm so used to their old typing that the ones that had Fairy added just trip me up because I don't think about it.
So I'm trying super training for the first time and both my Chesnaught and Blastoise were max before I did it and I can do the secret training, I'm going to try to get a second Shiny Stone later.

I got two Protean Froakies through Wonder Trade.
Ugh I randomly decided to go to the Smogon threads to read up on Florges and was seriously disgusted. I'll admit I do talk competitive stuff and most likely have no idea what I'm talking about, I'm one of the few people who prefer Dusknoir over Eviolite Dusclops because I like to do damage over being a godly wall, but at least I'm not as narrow minded as that crowd is.
The thing is that Pokemon battles are situational, you have no idea what you're going up against and it's not all Ferrothorns and Garchomps. I think it's better to go with a strategy that is not listed there because I feel that either A. I feel I can't pull it off or B. I like to have Type Coverage and the strategy doesn't provide enough. and C. Unpredictability.
Then again this is what happens when you look at competitive anything, and you probably won't like it because of it.
What is 'Protean' anyway?
Quote from: Sapphire Knight on October 27, 2013, 08:18:49 AM
What is 'Protean' anyway?
Before the Pokémon uses a move, it becomes a pure Pokémon of that type.
Which means any move you use becomes a STAB Move.

There's a lot of "competitive" strategies that I feel simply don't work that well in the "anyone can throw random crap at you" environment of Wifi. I remember back when Rest/Sleep Talk was all the rage, tried it once, and never looked back. This is, after all, an outfit that considers any accuracy/evasion move that takes up an actual move slot to be cheap and yet took a suspiciously long time to banish Garchomp and his Sand Veil to the "Uber" tier. It's not that you can't learn from them, but you can't just go through their movements either. Most of the competitive scene was built under an arbitrary unofficial rule set, using an unofficial simulator where you can just punch in whatever hidden stat values you want. In the end, you gotta do what works for you.
Yeah that's how I feel too, I'll just destroy everything with Choice Scarf Florges. Screw Wish Recover that thing can function as a Special Attacking Tank with Choice Scarf. Plus it has Petal Dance and only Steel and Poison are super effective against it. I think it can function outside of support.
I just battle with the Mon I love! XD
As do I, though I would like to know what they are good at.
Haha, Emolga & Pachirisu aren't really that good. I'm still leveling them up cause...well LOOK AT THEM! 0v0
I was probably the only one who battled with a normal-form Rotom in Gen4, and I'd say I was able to put him to pretty darn good use.

You're not losing much. Wish is only worthwhile if you can predict your opponent well enough to switch Pokemon safely, thus granting you some ability to heal your teammates. That's something which is extraordinarily dangerous if you mess up. One-on-one, Wish isn't worth that much.

False Swipe Doublade and Nuzzle Raichu usually served me well for capturing.

So I found out when you breed Flabebe it'll have the same flower color as the one you are breeding with. Also I just got a Foreign Flabebe with a max Speed IV and a Blue flower. Time to try out the Masuda method though I'm not breeding for a Shiny.
So Red breeds out only Red, and so on. Good to know.
Also, a Shiny Flabebe sounds nice. O:
Getting so many eggs and Flabebes to put up for adoption.
Hmm... I wonder if anyone will take the female frogadier I got at the friend safari and put up on the GTS... I hope so, I really need a quilladin to help complete the Kalos section of my dex. Oh well, I'll check when I get home.
I've had a Female one up for some time.
No one wants it in return for their Yveltal.
They just want Pokemon that are literally impossible to get in the game at this point instead.
I mean I did a quick double trade with my friend who has Y so he could get Xerneas's entry and I could get Yveltal's, but I still want my own ya know?
I still need to get a Staryu for breeding.
Quote from: Sakura Leic on October 28, 2013, 04:02:26 PM

Well I get home in about 2 hours, as soon as I find a Shellder I'll do it.

You'd be surprised how many Clauncher and Staryu (X) or Shellder and Skrelp (Y) you can get in Route 8 for fishing, and then you can use them for GTS or Wonder Trade. Very useful to get a few rare Pokémon from people that want those aquatic Pokémon.
And don't forget to use Rock Smash in Glittering Cave to get fossil Pokémon to trade for the other version exclusive fossils. :cookie:
Guess the only way I'm going to get a Dusclops or Duskull on the GTS that is actually reasonable is if I get a Scyther and evolve it to Scizor. Well it's better than trading my Yvental or another Legendary.
Okay~ I am finally home! Sakura! Ready for that staryu? And did you want a particular name for it?
Not really. Also I want to trade my Scyther to evolve it.
Okay then! Lemme connect my 3DS and I'll be ready to go! :D

Calem: Why are you so tough to beat?
Because I grind obsessively.
What level are you?
61-78 currently. Beat the seventh gym with only Lucario. Heading to Lysandre's lab to layeth the smacketh down.
Okay, I just won my first link battle (well, technically) but it feels like a total fluke because my team was nowhere near competitive. :o
Damn my highest post game is 75, and I was busy breeding.
That Champion's highest levelled 'mon is 68 even
My main squad are in the High 70's/low 80's. Cept for Pyre Sage. He's 86 right now.
Mine were actually pretty balanced in levels, mostly because I was concentrating on my somewhat lower leveled Houndoom, Dragagle, and Aerodactyl. Heck my highest leveled at any point in time was either Blastoise or Florges with Chesnaught only 1 level behind and the others 3-5 behind.
My team is pretty much set now. Going through Lysandre Labs, currently.

In any case, we should battle sometime. It shouldn't matter that my team isn't at LVL100 right, since it scales it down to LVL50?
Leveling up my 'mons at the 3-star restaurant in Lumiose. It's so worth it to gain all that exp and money in very short time, and you do get the money back, plus even more if you sell the mushroom prizes you earn from it. You can raise a LV1 'mon to roughly LV40 or higher within minutes~ :cookie:

If you have an attack move that hits multiple Pokemon, like Dazzling Gleam, put that Pokemon in the middle of a Triple team battle, put lucky egg on a low level Pokemon (recommend that you have it join your active team for boosted exp), add Amulet Coin to another active Pokemon and things will start go crazy from there. If the low level Pokemon faints, I revive it right away, before battle ends, to not miss out on exp. Entry fee is $100,000 but you'll get so much back from this, selling mushroom prizes and it's super quick, and only takes a few minutes~ ~w~

Only Mega I use is Aerodactyl.

Yeah, I'm a big fan of Mega Garchomp. I still need to fine tune what moves I'm going to give him in the end. What sucked for me was losing Aurorus so early. I totally forgot Destiny Bond did that.
Just remember with Mega Garchomp that it's best not to Mega him until you need it, since he loses 10 base speed when he evolves which actually hinders it more than anything. The speed change doesn't take effect until the turn after the evolution so there is that.
Thanks for the heads up. I did not know he loses speed. Heh, I focused more on the immense attack power boost.
I'm still iffy on what moves I want to give my Pokemon except Florges, though Starmie will definitely get Ice Beam and Scald and Psychic. I wish any the Pokemon I'm breeding for can use Shadow Ball, except Dusknoir but his Special is horrible.
If you can get one, Protean Greninja can learn pretty much most of what Starmie can (but def. not Rapid Spin), and Protean is absolutely amazing
Dark Pulse, U-Turn, Ice Beam, Surf

(http://i.imgur.com/60jkHNs.jpg)
Stuck Xavier in the PC and pulled out my Ariados. I missed her. It's good to have her back. Xavier is twelve levels behind my lowest-level Pokemon, currently. I'd need to grind him like crazy just to get him up to par with the rest of the team.

And yes, that is my nefarious plan. Except, we'd be playing the tile puzzle mostly. Well, that's the only one I play, puzzles being my thing and all. But yes, tummy rubs galore!
Finally made some progress on X, currently at Route 5.
Caught a Hardy Abra with Synchronize in a Quick Ball... There's my neutral legend catcher!!
Also noticed I have a Brave Ralts with Synchronize... I want my Honedge with Brave...
Current X team: Pikachu 18, Ralts 14, Quilladin 18, Braixen 16, Frogardier 16, Felchinder 18
Current Y team: Pikachu 15, Pidgey 16, Frogardir 16, Combusken 16, Bulbasaur 11, Beedrill 13
Bill Nye the Shelgon doesn't like me enough to learn Draco Meteor.
But now the rest of my Dragon type team knows that.

Very tempted to raise up that Super Smeargle I've been thinking of for so long. What moves to copy though...
I'm thinking of raising another Blaziken with Speed Boost over Mienshao. I need some good Fire Attacks and Dusknoir is not going to cover it.
I did a battle for the 1st time with I think it was Ruri a while back, DAMN I SUCKED! HAHAHAHA! Other then that I just got my 6th gym badge and currently on that snow place that I forgot the name to.

Nice to see ya again, Akamaru. :D
Thank you Mirby! We misses you!~
Back to Pokemon though. I guess I should tell my info: Got 8 badges, defeated the Champion, and now looking to see if I can make a new competive team. I just can't decide on the members. What I am thinking is either a Klefki or a Hidden ability Male Meostic with a mega evolved Gengar. Guh, too many choices now.
Anyone got a Male Espurr with a hidden ability? [eyebrow]

Yeah that's probably what I would do. It's hard to make a balanced team right now and I keep thinking maybe I should switch things out, I need something that can deal good fire and ghost damage.
I'll check my Espurr. Not entirely sure how to detect a hidden ability, though. I'll also add you tonight.
Anywho, eighth gym. What type and maximum levels am I looking at, here? I tore through the last gym like so much cheap toilet paper, using only Lucario, and only Shadow Claw.

I was able to find the Hidden Ability on GTS (bye, bye, Bellossom). Thing is, I'm specifically looking for a female, with Marvel Scale, in a Luxury Ball. Males will not ever pass their Pokeball when breeding, and will only pass a Hidden Ability if bred with Ditto (which I found out about 15 Dratini eggs too late...).
If anyone can help, I do happen to have a lot of Timid Joltiks...

I'd suggest posting in the Friend Code thread (http://forum.rockmanpm.com/index.php?topic=130.0). I'll take all the Safaris I can get, BTW. 8)
In the meantime, I have a Joltik and Honedge (nicknamed Ragnell) to super-train.
Caught myself a Gible in Y. No guesses as to what I named it. 8D
I should super-train my lower-levels. Got a newborn Scyther through Wonder Trade who will need super-trained.
And got a question about Delibird. I caught one whom I named Papa John, because he delivers (lolpun). I have no current plans to put him on any team at the moment. However, Ringman wants to build a team of the most useless Pokemon ever. Would a Delibird be a good choice for his team?
And I named my Gible "Jabberjaw."
Yes yes it would, and that team better have a Luvdisc and Farfetche'd.
I'll catch him a Luvdisc and let him borrow Quacklin', who has seen me through a solid majority of the game. He took on Xerneas.
Xerneas versus Farfetch'd.
Oh put a Spinda in there!
THE RPM DOG HAS RETURNED
So... I cleared Parfum Palace, and searching for my Brave Honedge.
I know Sychronize works 50% of the time... But darn it, it gave Brave to an Oddish, and a Nincada... BUT WHEN HONEDGE APPEARED TWICE AND GAVE ME RASH AND NAIVE 8U
I don't understand why Farfetch'd is considered useless. Mine is my main capture Pokemon, he can hold his own in battle, he makes a good hit sponge, he can cut down trees, he has a moveset that takes down Psychics, and anything else that's weak to Dark/Bug moves, and like I said, he took on Xerneas without a problem.
Top percentile Farfetch'd. 8D
Get him to use Sunkern. No evolving. 8D
A Magikarp is fine too, exception is it can have Bounce. IF HE CAN FIND ONE
Oh yeah Sunkern is a great choice.
Just wondering, what type am I?

I just got an Adamant Alakazam through Wonder Trade. He's male, so I can't mate him with Runaway. He's at level 19, with Magic Guard as his ability. I'd be willing to put him up for adoption for something good. Anyone interested?

Posted on: October 30, 2013, 06:19:48 AM
Just got a Japanese Tropius through Wonder Trade, and he's infected with Pokerus. Time to infect other Pokemon...
... I want a PKRS Pokemon. D:
After infecting them, leave them in the box, so that the virus doesn't die out.
Would depositing him in the daycare spread the infection, so I have another carrier? I plan to infect my team (at least one Pokemon), then send Tropius back to the box immediately, allowing the infection to spread throughout the team. But, I want to infect someone else, then send them to the daycare and breed the infection, and send that egg and its parent to the box.
I caught a Zoroark. Sweet! XD
I'm not sure if the virus spreads via breeding.
The rule of thumb is...
1. Place PKRS'd Pokemon in first position.
2. Have it battle.
3. Check team after battle ends. Usually the next 2 Pokemon will get infected.
4. Repeat Step 2 until all 6 are infected.
5. Deposit, and start again at step 2.
Another note. PKRS usually dies out at the midnight it is caught. However, if you deposit the Pokemon before midnight, and then withdraw it after midnight, the PKRS clock is reset.
One last thing, PKRS doesn't spread within the box. You have to do it manually using the above steps.
Posted on: October 30, 2013, 01:50:11 AM
At least this was true for me in Emerald, and Platinum. Not sure if things changed since then.
Alright, so next time I go grinding, I'll go take Tropius on a wild encounter and infect my team, then deposit him quickly. Just to infect another vessel, I'll stick a lower-level on the team.
I had a Pokerus'd Pokemon in Black 2, but forgot about it until 11:58PM. It didn't spread, but apparently my Walrein caught a mild case of it (not enough to show he had it, nor to show up as him having had it at one point), enough to gain 50 Sp. Atk and 25 Sp. Def over the next two level ups before stat growth returned to normal.
That is how he fulfilled his title of the WALRUS OF DOOM
When he uses Surf, nothing survives.

For once, pestilence is good. 8D
If I infect enough, I'll offer some vessels for trade and infect all of RPM.
WE SHALL ALL GET POKERUS
WOOHOO!!!
The Purple Plague. 8D
On another note... Those Honedges better be Brave... Or Adamant... Else there will be HELL
Speaking of natures... Nyarlathotep, my Haunter, is Timid. I also got a Gastly through Wonder Trade that's Timid.
What the hell is up with these Timid Ghosts?
They are scared of themselves. Hence their weakness to Ghost. 8D
Terrible behavior for Lovecraftian horrors. They should be ashamed of themselves!
I cannot wait to bring my previous Gen Pokemon over to X & Y and battle with you all! 8)
Despite how it got nerfed, I still want to train a Hydreigon. Still have those Modest babies in my White 2.

*stocks up on Nest Balls.*
i'm raising a Hydreigon right now. All Dragon team, actually.
Currently it's...
Candygram (Gabite, 41)
Bruce Wayne (Noibat, 35)
Boomervitar (Axew, 32)
Goolia (Goomy, 31)
Bill Nye (Shelgon, 32)
Ringo Starr (Deino, 31)
WHO CAN NAME SOME OF THOSE REFERENCES SINCE NOT ALL OF THEM ARE REFERENCES
AND BILL NYE IS AN OBVIOUS ONE
Bruce Wayne is also an obvious one. Same with Ringo Starr.
I need to go melt the eighth gym. But first, I have Pokemon to infect. But first, I need to sleep, then I can infect Pokemon, then I can go melt an Ice gym.
Well yeah, those are obvious too.
There is a reason I named Deino that though...

Melt? More like dropping an atomic bomb in your case.
I don't think that's quite it either. I think all of Snowbelle City will sublimate completely after she's through.
Candygram reminds me of Mongo from Blazing Saddles. Boomervitar reminds me of Boomer Kuwanger with something that might be escaping me. Goolia reminds me of this Monster High toy I had to search for my niece. The rest are obvious.
The problem is that each badge is pretty much an excuse to grind to that maximum level. "Oh, so I can now command Pokemon at 80? Time to get everyone up to that level!"
It's not that I'm just doing this to avoid losing, it's that it says I can command to a certain level, so dammit, I will command that level. It's an invitation to being over-powered.
You do realize that levels only apply to Pokemon traded above that level, not ones you catch yourself, right?
Posted on: October 30, 2013, 01:42:34 AM
Candygram is actually a reference to the old Land Shark sketches from SNL.
Cause, ya know, Gible and its evolutions are land sharks. Boomervitar isn't quite a reference to anything, and neither is Goolia.
Yeah. But hey, it says I can, and thus I will.
They may as well just say "don't try this at home," which is an invitation.
I am already fearing for my X team. My traded starters are approaching lvl20, and I'm not even halfway to the second gym.
Leveling is insanely easy in this. They grow up so fast.
Hence why I turned off the Exp Share when I'm catching Pokemon. >_>
I'll need to turn it off just to keep Ariados from leveling too much. She's at 84 right now and levels so damn fast. She'll gain four more levels before the actual gym battle, guaranteed.
I named my Garchomp Targaryen, since it was female, but after seeing it's Mega Evo I might rename her Gigan, since she's almost a spitting image.
You also got Ariados from a trade, so automatic double experience on her.
After about 4 hours of checking, theorizing, and referencing, I have finally decided on my team. What was ironic is that 3 of them are from BW team and I don't know whether to wait for PokeBank or make those 3 again. I really can't wait to start on this team.
To make this team though, I need a few things that I don't have and maybe you guys do:
A female Corosola with Rock Blast. I believe PB has it in his Friend Safari, though I don't have him as a friend. :'(
A female Dragonair with an ability Marvel Scale.
An Dittos with Adamant or Jolly I can borrow.
If you want a certain pokemon for the above mentioned, I'll try to get them.
Man, I wish we can get at least a few of my 'mons from BW, but that'd defeat the purpose of EV training from new ones in this game, huh?

That sucks we you planning on teaching that one Steel Move or Trick Room?
If you meant Gyro Ball, I... Never thought about that. It should still work... But I'm sticking with Iron Head for set damage.
It's just that I wanted Brave for a reason, to always go last. I think she will still go last... Based on the Pokemon used in-game.
I guess I'm just nitpicking.

Okay, something is going on for the Safari I don't understand. Some of the people I have friended give me a full three slots for catchable Pokemon, like Vixy and Saber, but others only give me two. What's even more bizarre is that when I first used Vixy's Safari I only could catch 2 pokemon, but later I was able to catch three, meanwhile Saber right off the bat gave me three.
WHAT'S GOING ON?! o-O
The third slot is only available after the person beats the game. Further still if the person is online at the same time as you any of the Pokemon you catch has a chance of having its hidden ability.

Awesome! Any specific Pokemon you are looking for (Other than the Dragonite in the ball...) that I can trade? So far, I have started breeding Honedge for the Adamant ability.
Honedge with Adamant... Akamaru... Keep one of those bred swords for me...

I wonder if I should change my status to "I have Pokerus!"
Still need to infect more Pokemon. My entire team is infected, currently, so I can stick one in the box, infect some lower-levels, and repeat the process on occasion until I have a large collection of carriers.
Then, when I get back home, they'll be up for trade. Most will be fodder, but they'll be infected fodder.

We will forever remember Tropius for sacrificing itself for the good of all Pokemonkind.
Tropius. Patient Zero.
I have no idea what any if this means x3
Good things. Very good things.
I'll infect an extra Swirlix for you.
Pokerus is a beneficial virus that doubles the amount of Effort Values (EVs) you get. Effort Values are one of the many factors that make some Pokemon stronger than others and competitive battlers in particular manipulate how many Effort Values they want for their stat, the max for one stat being 252 and overall for one Pokemon being 510.
You get Effort Values for battling Pokemon, each one providing a different EV, as well as Vitamins which provide 10 EVs each and each Pokemon can be given 10 Vitamins per stat as well as the new Super Training mini game in X and Y. Other things that affect EVs are Power Items such as the Power Belt and Anklet which provides 4 extra EVs to a specific stat they represent and the Macho Brace which also Doubles Effort Values but all these items lower Speed when held in Battle, but not your base Speed of course. The Juice Shoppe in Lumiose also can raise certain EVs depending on the drink.
There are also ways to erase EVs with certain Berries that lowers the Base Stat but raises Friendship such as Kelpsy and Tamato Berries, certain Juices in the Juice Shoppe and Reset Bags in Super Training.
There's some more to it but this is pretty much the gist of it.
Ack, beaten to the punch.
GO SPREAD LAS POKÉRUS PEOPLE.

You should see that one PR video... Where a Trainer runs from his Espurr, only to finally succumb to its psychic powers.
Dude can you show it?
... The URL is on my lappie. I'll see if I can find it through my phone. If not... I'll post it as soon as I get back.
Either way I think Espurr just wants friends.
Or...you know...to murder...
Or to have a staring contest, with your soul.
If a staring contest it's looking for, it's gonna be fighting a losing battle with Dr. Wily II.

Got you an infected Skorupi named ScorpoinKing.
Nicknames are important. Please keep track of who gets what, as Saturday, I'll have a lot of trading to do.
hmm
I don't have net access on the 3DS until Saturday. I'll have a full list of infected Pokemon by then. So far:
Cutty Sark (Pawniard) - Wily
Gastly - Sakura
Shenzi (Mightyena) - Ruri
ScorpionKing (Skorupi) - TheOnly
Tony Stark (Lairon) - PB (pre-infection)
I'm heading to bed now, as I need to be up early. I'll infect Norman Bates (Watchog) for you tomorrow.
Oh it has to do with EVing? I dun wanna min/max ^^;
I can give Shenzi to Ruri if you're not interested. :)
What Pokemon does PB get? :(
Well, I could infect Tony Stark (Lairon) for you. :)
I'll infect him and Norman tomorrow.

Cutty Sark (Pawniard) - Wily
Gastly - Sakura
Shenzi (Mightyena) - Ruri
ScorpionKing (Skorupi) - TheOnly

On the reals though, if I'm able to keep going, this will be the first main series pokemon game I've ever actually beaten (and ive gotten all the games) x3
This generation is so much easier to get into.
The experience is so easy to gain... Too easy for traded Pokemon. >_>
I think what really sells this game is the connectivity. Online trading & battling are 100x more efficient. We can now easily hold an actual Pokemon tournament on RPM.

... Which brings me to a question. How many Dusk stones are in the game. From Serebii, seems to have only 2 found in the wild, with no way to buy more.
Oh man, you are right. Here I was thinking we could buy them at the Stone Emporium. I guess that means we have to be careful of how we use them.

Generally the main reason I quit is because I have a big completionist problem, which doesn't work well in pokemon x3. So I end up getting bored/giving up.
Looks like I will sacrifice the stones in Y for the glory of X!!

All of the stones can be acquired from Secret Super Training

This might take a while.
To get the Secret Super Training, you just have to fully train your Pokemon (max its EVs out; the bar on the right side of the screen will be full when they're maxed and the game will notify you).
ANYONE HAS SPARE DUSK STONES TO TRADE TO ME
You are so lazy...
Anyway, plans for a Mega Aerodactyl are taking place... I have only revived one so far, Adamant with Rock Head. I probably don't care if the IVs are terrible, but... yea~
Gonna try. *shrugs*
*heads back to grinding*
Got a busy day today, so I might not get around to spreading Pokerus until this evening. After Tony and Norman are infected, I'll infect a couple more carriers and some additional fodder. Clock's ticking for the team, but I'll still have carriers.
SPREAD THE GLORY OF THE PESTILENCE
Once you guys have it, you can spread it, too! :D
First RPM... Then...

Awesome!
My shiny Flygon (Shai-Hulud) is up to Lv.52
Posted on: October 31, 2013, 02:40:36 PM
I caught Mewtwo today.
It was...surprisingly easily actually. Only took a Paralyzing Dragonbreath and a Crunch, then one Ultra Ball.
I just used the Master Ball on Mewtwo. Seemed like the best time to use it. I've never had any luck finding shiny Pokemon.
A friend of mine caught a shiny Cubone back in Gen III though.
Just hatched a shiny Chespin. It was my 34th egg.
Am saving my Master Ball for a Pokemon event that I think it's worth useing on.
Quote from: Mirby on November 01, 2013, 12:02:40 AM

Quote from: Akamaru on October 31, 2013, 02:17:41 AM
Awesome! Any specific Pokemon you are looking for (Other than the Dragonite in the ball...) that I can trade? So far, I have started breeding Honedge for the Adamant ability.
Oh, I LONG SINCE finished my Honedge breeding. I went with Relaxed, though. Eviolite Doublade makes one heck of a tank.
...nobody specific comes to mind, unless by some miracle you have Vulpix or Fletchling with hidden abilities. Otherwise, any trade fodder will do. Ditto and MS Dratini are in the love shack now.
Asked someone I know to name it for me, they said Quasimodo. Which works very well, considering Chesnaught's hunched posture.

Lots of Aerodactyl babies.
Haha, I'll take one!
Later, my school's internet doesn't jive with my 3ds.
No prob.
Anything in particular you want in return?
Beat the game long time ago. Got all the legendaries available without trading, never used my Master Ball. Now I just have to finish the Pokedex, which is mostly levelling a bunch up to evolve and finding more stones (I gotta see where that second Dusk Stone is.) Only version specifics I don't have are Xerneas and Swirlix/Slurpuff. Probably a bunch more I could get from Friend Safaris, but I'm not too concerned about that. Otherwise what's left in the wild are Garbodor, Bannette, and Taillow. The last two are impossible to find, I swear. Rotom was no problem, though. Oh, and unless Secret Super Training can get you Razor Claw, Razor Fang, Electirizer and Magmarizer, I'm not evolving those mons. Pokemon Bank can't come soon enough.
Quote from: Protoman Blues on November 01, 2013, 01:19:56 AM

Okay that'll work.

Either or.

The trade evolve items are available at Battle Maison for 32-48 BP each, so it depends on how much more effort you want to apply.

Exactly, I don't wanna go through that.
Just my thoughts:
Okay.... So now that the game has been out for a week or two, or few, can you say that from the other previous titles in the series that this is the best Pokemon game to date? I've collected some of the older games even from the DS games, but I never had the chance to play them. I was afraid that If I played them then when I got them, that a new Pokemon game would come out soon after. And I was correct.
Besides just new region, new pokemon, and new graphics design, I couldn't find any other differences from the new Pokemon games starting from the GBA, to the current DS versions of the games before the new 3DS versions of X & Y came out. But from what I can tell from the 3DS version having new features and new game mode via Poke Amie, seems like a lot of people enjoy this one a lot more.
Also, with the Poke Bank coming soon, seems like it's going to be easier to transfer your Pokemon around. So I could like, train pokemon on my digital eShop copy, then transport them to the cartridge version of the game if I wanted to? BTW any word or release date on this? Though seems a bit farfetched to have to pay a monthly fee for it. We already have to pay for internet service, and paying games via downloading from the eshop service.
With that in mind, I was thinking about getting back into the game. I can't remember ever finishing a Pokemon RPG game past Pokemon Yellow. Though I've played some of the GBA titles only for a little bit just to try some of the features of their time, and during my visit to the Nintendo World Store. But that's it, besides the console games like Pokemon Stadium. But I don't think they count, since all the games actually begin on a handheld game system.
SoulSilver still might be my favorite, but this is probably right up there.
Okay. Overbite it is.

Gonna be hard. Of the two friends I got that are Fire, they only got two slots down. I am not sure if Ninja Lou is playing Pokemon, but maybe he'll have it once he beats the champion. The third slot is either Ninetails, Braixen, or Fletchinder. A good 66% chance of getting one of the 'mons. you want. Sorry.
What I can do is let you borrow Yveltal if you need him to complete your pokedex.
Just beat the game, the Elite Four were very easy for me this time around, other then that the place felt VERY majestic, I liked that a lot. Now to get Mewtwo. Also, can anyone here provide a link on maxing IV's? Am very green on that subject.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to raising him!
Got my eighth badge. Going to storm the Battle Chateau for a while, and then it's off to Victory Road!
My team recovered from Pokerus, so I pulled out Nyarlathotep and infected Tony Stark, Xavier, Norman Bates, and an extra Illumise for fodder. I have five carriers I intend to keep, four to trade, and one fodder. I'll bring out another carrier and infect more later. I have a nice collection to use, currently.
Besides, I need to go to Victory Road.
Okay, I managed to find 2 Banettes. But Taillow still refuses to appear. Is there some other parameter to finding them, like time of day? All the websites just say Horde.
Maybe try some Honey?
Oh, caught a Zoroark in the Pokemon Village. I have over thirty Ultra Balls, so I just chucked a couple. Quacklin', my main catcher, wasn't in the starting position and I didn't feel like switching him in, in case the Zoroark had something nasty up his sleeve, so I decided I could spare a few Balls.
I named the Zoroark Dr. Strange.
Quote from: Dr. Meowly II on November 01, 2013, 04:37:20 AM

Wow, does Honey always give you a Horde if they're available? That made it so much easier. Took me four tries this time. Thanks Doc!
Poor Runaway ended up in a bad type matchup due to my unfamiliarity with the Pokemon that was being sent out. The other Pokemon got in a lucky shot and a super-effective, and Runaway went down like a ton of bricks.
But, he toughed it out and lasted with 1 HP.
"Runaway toughed it out to prove its love for Trak!"
You're a real trooper, Runaway. An inspiration to us all.
I switched him out immediately, then dumped a Hyper Potion on him while Flamin' Yawn had the other Pokemon caught in a Fire Spin.
I don't pet my Pokemon nearly enough. I've never got messages like that.
Give them love! They'll love you in return.
They'll also become interested in the other Pokemon's scent.
And my Ditto now has Pokerus, and I didn't even try to infect it. It spends most of its time at the daycare.

NOW HELP ME TAKE OVER
Just caught Zygarde. Named him Biollante.
Now all that's left is Admiral Lightning, and we should be good! XD
Goodness, I need sleep. I was watching the visiting Pokemon chat in Pokemon-amie. The first two that come in usually seem irritated by the third that just takes complete control of the conversation. They say something and the other two are usually "uhh..." and "what?" and sometimes "hey!" Every now and then, I see the responding Pokemon actually enjoy talking with the conversation starter.
I womder if that has anything to do with how many in the group are happy. If all three are happy to some degree, they'll have a nice chat, while others are just putting up with that upstart who came in after they took a seat?
Yeah, I need sleep. What a stupid thing to notice.
Or perhaps you have unlocked the link between inter-species communication that isn't breeding...
Happy Pokemon who have happy conversations also leave better stuff for you.
... I should start loving them.

Same hacker found Mega Evolutions for Latios and Latias, but them and the Legendary Pokemon are on Serebii.
While hackers potentially messing up the game for everyone does bug me, their efforts also show that there's a lot more to Gen6 than we previously thought. Already we see Legendaries past #718 and Mega Evolutions we didn't know existed, showing that there's more on the card than we're privy to.

Yeah I love the hackers who go through the trouble to do that.
Given the whole Swapnote debacle, will Nintendo take these away from us too?
(EDIT: putting some text here, because I did in fact make two very different statements in this post)
Now that [spoiler]AZ's Floette[/spoiler] is at least confirmed as being a real pokemon, I don't want to miss out on getting one :(
There's already ridiculous censors in place on names, so I doubt it.
Seriously. I couldn't name a Dragonair Sean Connery. Or a Barbaracle Conan. Both were censored for who knows what reason.
Photos can't be as easily censored (and the ones taken in-game are in a very controlled environment), so that's not a worry (and that's why Swapnote was taken down).
To claim that Swapnote's demise will cause everything to be taken away that involves online is a perfect example of the logical fallacy we all know and love known as "slippery slope"
Not being able to read through hyperbole is worse.
Besides, if anything it's a development fault that the names leaked. Did the 1.1 update's second clause describe the event names' removal?
Fair enough. I've just had to deal with people who said the same thing as you, but were serious, in the past several hours. So yeah.
So I have Frodadiers in my Friend Safari, that's awesome to know.
What's in both of mine at the moment, and yes I know I only have 2 in each.

You also have a Teddiursa and Mincchino in your Normal Safari.

So I was playing around with breeding with Gibble and Ditto(has perfect HP and Speed IV). When I went to the guy who checks IV's for Ditto he said it had HP and Speed, I placed Ditto w/ Destiny Knot to it and Gibble w/ Everstone to it and got a few eggs. After hatching a few I went to check the IV's. For some he said HP and for some he said Speed. Despite he only mentions one of em for each does it mean I got both HP and Speed since Ditto had D.Knot or just the one IV the guy said?
EDIT: Am going to switch out a Gibble for one that has perfect Speed and see from there...
Tomorrow, I'll be home. I starred the infected Pokemon to trade, so tomorrow I'll be able to spread the 'rus.

Right now? 9:30 pm. I'm on Eastern time, and I plan to start trades in the evening. Got plans in the afternoon.
Is it possible to do mine around 10am eastern time?
Anyone tried catching a shiny Mewtwo in this game? I know the odds are really rare, but just wondering.
Also, is it just me, or is Mewtwo's in-game model slightly different than his introduction appearance when you first meet him in the Mystery Cave? Maybe it's the head shape, or maybe it's just the camera angle that makes it look different. Though his intro animation scene looks better than his in game model if the case is that they are different.
So I mashed B after nabbing a Haunter on GTS and it wouldn't stop evolving... Kinda needed it to stay a Haunter for another trade. Ah well.

That and spritzee are the only Y-exclusives I need to see for the Kalos portion of my pokedex.
Let me see if I can find another Spritzee and then we can trade. I'll need the Yevental back.
Any particular reason why Vivillon has different wing designs? I know they're country/area specific evolutions, but are there any gameplay differences? And how do I know which ones it'll evolve in to? Do you get the specific wing design after you travel with it, and it evolves in the area you are currently standing on? Or does the specific wing design evolve from where you originally captured it from?

Thus the term 'bounce'. :P Any X-clusives (or anything at all) you still need/would like for the spritzee? (I'd like it named 'Pinky', if that's alright >3>)
Quote from: N-Mario on November 02, 2013, 04:18:05 AM
Any particular reason why Vivillon has different wing designs? I know they're country/area specific evolutions, but are there any gameplay differences? And how do I know which ones it'll evolve in to? Do you get the specific wing design after you travel with it, and it evolves in the area you are currently standing on? Or does the specific wing design evolve from where you originally captured it from?
It evolves from the country or state it was originally captured in but there are no difference stat wise.

It is based on the country you set in your 3DS, and you can only get one pattern in the whole game.

Want the 'whipped dream' so it can evolve, or send that over with a mule so you can have it cute and fluffy for a while? Or do you even care to have a slurpuff?
I'll let you know when I catch another Spritzee, though it's rare on my route.

Caught the Spritzee and named it Nest Breaker because it kept breaking my Nest balls. And Yes I would like the Whipped Dream. Do you also want to register Female Micheal Jackson as well since I already evolved my other Spritzee.

Ah okay, so its impossible to capture every design? Though I read somewhere that someone actually did get all of the designs. But I donno. Just more impossible work without hacking for whoever wants all of them just for the different patterns sakes, I guess.

They did it by Trading, I just got a foreign Scatterbug if I evolved it it would be that country's Vivillon not mine.
There are a couple of ways: do general trades for Scatterbugs or Spewpas, go over to r/vivillonexchange, etc.

Sure, but it might be more effective to just paste a satchet to Nest Breaker (assuming you have another satchet). Though, did you want the whipped dream on Cotton, or a mule for later?

There are two to be found. Either talk to a particular person in Cyllage City or behind the ranch house on route 12 (needs cut). Or have you gotten and used them both?
Let me check, Serebii also says Route 16 so I'll check both.
Alright then, I'll be waiting :3
Okay got it.
Awesome.
Posted on: November 01, 2013, 09:10:02 PM
Thank you very much Sakura~! :3
...I kind of wanted to register Xerneas too.
Sorry! Slipped my mind. X(
It's fine thanks for the Slurpuff. Now I have a silly doggy cupcake.
Doing a Flying safari now with somebody I met on Serebii. For whatever reason, Farfetch'd took nearly half an hour to show up with Defiant. Long since got HAs from Hoothoot and Fletchinder.

I have one friend with Fairy who's beaten the game. Their Safari has Floette, Mawile, and Togepi.
Hmm you know I think an Assault Vest would be a great item for an Aerodactyl so it can better survive Electric attacks.
I've usually equipped my lower-levels with the Rocky Helmet. After St. Elmo was done using it, I gave it to Runaway and he used it for quite a while until he learned some decent attacks.
Raising an Alakazam from an Abra and lacking in any decent TMs to teach it was a pain to start with. Runaway had only Thunderwave as an offensive move, and it sucked. Battles consisted of constantly having him start, shoot off an attack, and then switching him out so he'd benefit from getting a larger chunk of EXP. Then, he evolved and started learning how to kick butt. Then, he visited Sakura so he could evolve.
Now, look at him. He's interested in my scent and the toys in my bag.
My Honedge is such a beast... 84 att at lvl29 after max att ev training... I LOVE HER
Yeah I will definitely teach my Gengar Taunt when I get it.
Just decided to teach Runaway Dazzling Gleam. Now he can be FABULOUS~
He should be renamed Fabio now. 8D
Fabio McLovin 8D
As tempting as it is, I'll leave his nickname alone.
And taking him into cafes is a pain, as he bends every single damn spoon in the joint, if he's not smelling me or rifling through my bag for toys.
Though, I admit it. I'm pretty attached to Runaway. He's becoming one of my favorites on my team.
Finally get a chance to play this tonight. Hopefully I can continue THE HUNT FOR ZAPDOS!!!
But first I need to check out three new Friend Safari's I got today at Nintendo World and see what Mon they yield!
Posted on: November 01, 2013, 11:53:29 PM
Okay, how many times do I have to encounter Zapdos in the wild before he flies to the Den?
Around 10++ times.
Posted on: November 02, 2013, 14:45:46
... Also, I so n00bish with game chat. >_>
Oy. Thanks!
Don't worry about it, I bet its just the Pokemon Servers. Alright, I got your Honedge Adamant up and ready!
EDIT: Ehh... I was supposed to send a female, wasn't I?
And that goes my Brave Nincada. 8D
Posted on: November 02, 2013, 14:48:31
Thank you for the Honedge~ :3
No problem. As for the PR video, wait till I get a chance to do something about it. I only got the first video Tutorial up and running.
Hehe, I was playing around with those.
Once I have cleared the main game, we should battle.
Oh yeah, we should. Better get started on that team though. Since Pokemon Black, I got a bit on the competitive side of Pokemon battles. No longer just favorites, but mostly OU tier battling.
Lol, most likely I will stick it out with my game team for the moment. :P

WRITE IT DOWN
Ahem... Another Zapdos player to note for dex entry...
I already have the Legendary Birds from SoulSilver. I just wanna catch this one because! 8D
And now I continue the impossible task of completing the pokedex, focusing on the Kalos pokedex/s before expanding to the National one.

It's alright, I'll wait until someone with Clefairy shows up. >U<
By four, I clearly meant 2. One ice beam & one Ultra Ball later, Admiral Lightning has joined my squad! 8D
I have 3 friends with Fighting type Safaris who have beaten the game. I'm still wondering what my type is...
Also, I just caught a shiny Relicanth (weeee Chain Fishing).
Thanks for the Imposter Dittos, Mirby!
No problem!
Hm, I wonder if there is something wrong with me. I am not too enthusiastic about breeding previous generation Pokemon in XY because I already did a ton of it in Gen V. That, and I am probably going to hold off until I can import the Max I've Dittos I have waiting in Black.
Though if I can get my hands on some Imposor Dittos...
I should see what my Ditto is. Right now, it's spending time with my Zoroark.
I must admit I am tempted to catch a Ditto so I can breed some Zoruas.
My Ditto is Limber. I just bred it with my Zoroark, so there's an egg. Then, I stuck the Zoroark in my party with Xavier and infected him. Dr. Strange now has Pokerus. I'm cultivating a lovely little epidemic.
I get interesting Pokemon in Wonder Trade, along with the multiple Honedge and Bunlebys. Got a Dragonair, 2 Eevees, and a Jolly Torchic but it doesn't have Speed Boost. Very interesting indeed.
So, I've got a ditto with imposter, which is kinda more useful in battle than a ditto with limber as it doesn't need a turn to transform. Should I try to breed more dittos with imposter to trade off for various other mons or to people who want/need them? o~O
Edit: Nevermind, just looked up breeding mechanics. Genderless pokemon can't pass down hidden abilities. =3=

You can't breed Dittos anyway, trust me I tried it before in Soul Silver. That's why I caught a horde of Dittos instead in that game.
Oh well, there's always Mirby's safari, since that's where I got mine. =w=
Mirby has Dittos?
Mirby has dittos?! Damnit, he/she hasn't added me yet.
Can't you just catch Dittos in the Pokemon Village. Or are these special Dittos?
The Dittos in a Friend's Safari are always guaranteed at least two perfect IVs. Mostly, if done right, a pokemon can end up with 4-6 Perfect IVs by chain breeding.
Wish I could get them. Muh, Mirby, why you no longer 3DS friends with me? I could have sworn I had you since long ago.

*kisses Vixy* 8D
Plus it's easier since Friend Safari's have less Pokemon to go through and Dittos are rare in the Pokemon village.
Well since we're having fun with this, perhaps we should update the first page with what Pokemon is in each person's Safari?
Well I know I have Bibarels, Floatzels, and Frogadiers.
I believe my sweet sexy Vixy said my three were Corsola, Dweeble, and Barbacle?

(Probably not XD)
Yeah, Dragonite didn't get her exercise. Still fun, though. XD
Found someone on Serebii with a Dragonair Safari, but even though they added me they seem to never be online. >_<
So now I'm taking a break from my Ditto-hoarding to try and nab a Breloom, preferably with Technician.
Well it's not like I would've stood a chance against Mewtwo anyway! XD
Hunting for Dittos now.
Vixy's safari is Fighting and contains Hariyama, Pancham, and Mankey. I'll need to check back later for others.
Mirb's also has Loudreds and Aipoms.
Ah so those are what I have. Aipoms, Loudreds, and Dittos.

Okay! So! I now have moltress (which I named 'GrandPhoenix') after it nearly killing my whole party and getting it's pp whittled down to almost struggling (had to use my master ball on it as a last-ditch effort since I forgot to save).

Magician could be very useful on Delphox! Probably not as useful as Protean is with Greninja though. XD
Oh and I started a Friend Safari list on the main page. I still need to update it though.
Yeah they never released a Totodile with Sheer Force, that sucks.
I added everyone I had to the Friend Safari list.
Wait, Arikado beat his game? Then how come I'm not getting a full safari?

It's the one where you fight Hydregion but it can also yield a Sun Stone.

Guess I'm going to keep my fodder for a while.
Just a heads up guys, a friend showed me this, to make sure your game file doesn't get royally screwed over because of one bad Trade.
... Luckily I did one legit Wonder Trade.
Looks like no more Wonder Trading for me for a while.
Anywho, I'm online now. Who wants Pokerus?
I'm going to hold back on that a bit.
I'm going to go infect some more and grind a bit.
Oh! What Pokemon do you have you with Pokerus?
I just wanted with a Friend of my who did Wonder Trade last Thursday so I'm safe (no Bad Egg). Normal Trading between Friends seems safe enough.
I can infect some more, but I have a Watchog I'm willing to trade. It's already infected.

The current team I'm using is a mix-up between two teams I have. The first one is just a general team while the idea of the second one is to utilize Sticky Web with other tactics such as Paralyze and Electro Ball, or use 'mons such as Blaziken and it's ability to pass on speed to others that desperately need it.
It's a work in progress that will get utterly thrashed by Trick Room.
I should consider EV training my team. I just go into battles hoping for the best.

The current team I'm using is a mix-up between two teams I have.

IN that case, why don't you replace a pokemon with slow speed, with High attack, and average defenses to cover that. Something like a Ferrathorn, which resist most moves, can set up Stealth Rock (EDIT: Only is tutored in BW, it seems...), and damage to Swift Swim Teams, or start with a Bronzong to mess up the Trick Room.
I miss my Whimsicott. With Prankster, Encore, and Sunny Day and Trick room in its arsenal, it defeat teams like that...
EDIT2: If you want, we can do a quick battle.
Pun intentional.

Haha, me too! We should battle! 8D
I'm still trying to figure out how my Ditto caught Pokerus. I didn't have it on the team to infect. It spends its days in the daycare. I think I may have had it with one of my infected Pokemon, but I don't remember. If that's the case, then Pokerus is an STD.
Already EV trained my Flabebe and I'm training it now.
Is it me or is it really hard to train the pokemon. Sure the Exp. Share makes things easier, but as for actual leveling up, since there isn't too many challenging trainers like the Elite 4 or Serena/(Boy if you chose girl) that is once Daily. Anyone got tips for speed training the pokemon or are they doomed to dieing over and over again to the Elite 4...?
I grind at the Battle Chateau.
I'm just grinding on Routes until Florges is at about level 50. It shouldn't be too hard since it destroys almost anything.
... A Slowpoke.
A SHINY SLOWPOKE *false swipes*
WOOHOO
Thank god I was looking at the screen, and saw the sparkles.
If not... I would have ran away because I caught a normal Slowpoke just a few moments earlier.
Whew. You got lucky this time, Dr. Wily!
Doesn't help that the Shiny version is just a very pale version of a normal Slowpoke.

In Lumiose City there are restaurants where you can battle trainers as often as you want.

All tipping does is improve style.
And it's much slower than just going to the Poke Ball Emporium and buying Premier Balls one by one.
Not there yet, have money to spare.
So for anybody who's used my friend safari what pokemon does mine give out?
Of course its not at three pokemon because I haven't had time to really get into the game in a while and since battling is literally a [tornado fang]ing chore now I can't imagine I'll beat it anytime soon.
On another note, [tornado fang] Attract and [tornado fang] static.
You got Machoke in our first slot and a Pancham as your second.
I know I got grass as mine, but what do I give?
This is what I do for leveling up,if I want instant LV40 or LV50 within minutes.
Quote from: VixyNyan on October 29, 2013, 07:11:32 AM
Leveling up my 'mons at the 3-star restaurant in Lumiose. It's so worth it to gain all that exp and money in very short time, and you do get the money back, plus even more if you sell the mushroom prizes you earn from it. You can raise a LV1 'mon to roughly LV40 or higher within minutes~ :cookie:
Quote from: VixyNyan on October 29, 2013, 07:26:36 AM
If you have an attack move that hits multiple Pokemon, like Dazzling Gleam, put that Pokemon in the middle of a Triple team battle, put lucky egg on a low level Pokemon (recommend that you have it join your active team for boosted exp), add Amulet Coin to another active Pokemon and things will start go crazy from there. If the low level Pokemon faints, I revive it right away, before battle ends, to not miss out on exp. Entry fee is $100,000 but you'll get so much back from this, selling mushroom prizes and it's super quick, and only takes a few minutes~ ~w~
If I only want 1 or 2 levels, I pick Victory Road and fight with my adorable SylveonNyan~
*3rd Level of the Lost and Found job is in the Hallway*
No, no, not doing this [parasitic bomb] unless there's a trick to it.
Vixy's advise is good for both exp and money. Luck Incense and O-Powers should keep you going indefinitely, and you'll be rich after selling the Balm Mushrooms.
Just...don't try it at the Sushi place. The exp is barely any better and the price to get in is sheer robbery. ONLY reason to battle there is to "see" the non-Kalos Pokemon that they use.

What are the levels in the Resturants?
I'm a freaking loser. After hours of chain breeding, I finally got the PERFECT Absol. All max IVs minus special attack (Because I like maxing out a pokemon's potential), best ability (Super Luck), and best nature (Adamant). All I need to do now is EV train it and it will be UNSTOPPABLE! :W
But first, onto Blaziken...
I have yet to see one shiny.

Yeah I'll just grind the normal way, Florges is already at lv 34.
Once you have a powerful Pokemon that has a multi-target move, you WILL visit Le Wow more often~ :3
In one of the triple battles, you gain over 18000 exp for defeating all 3 Pokemon. At one point, I even got 24000 exp within one battle with Lucky Egg and some EXP O-Powers. XD

Dazzling Gleam was a suggested move to use at Le Wow, any others? I would not recommend Earthquake or Surf.
I'll wait until I have 5 of the 6 Pokemon I want to have on my team. I think that's when I'll find it most beneficial.

I'd like to add that I had a Flamethrower-wielding Pokemon on the left side of the active team. It takes care of Lucario and other Pokemons weak to it. In my case, it was Delphox with both Flamethrower and Psychic against Milotic and Wobbuffet, among others. >U<

A mega evolved Heat Wave from Charizard with a drought ability automatically setting Sunny Day. It is a for sure going to wipe out the opposing team. Unless it misses...
Got challenged by a japanese dude who swept me with his MEGUH CHURRZURD WAI AND SPEED BEWST BLAJERKIN
I think I'm gonna do like one of my friends and when I start building my actual team, just build it to counter those two in particular.
Mega Aerodactyl would be a good choice, just teach it Rock Throw and Earthquake. A Fariy type would be nice too since they learn Psychic attacks too.
I want to avoid using Mega Pokemon because I really really [tornado fang]ing hate them.
But I suppose as long as I'm a total noob at the finer points of Pokemon training like EVs and IVs I guess I'll take your suggestion when I start putting together my team.
Meanwhile I'm having trouble getting a Jolly Aerodactyl.

I guess it would be a good Nature for an Umbreon but other than that I don't know why he gave you a Bold Eevee. Also holy [parasitic bomb] Flareon finally learns Flare Blitz, about damn time!
EDIT: Oh wait I think he wanted you to use a Glaceon.
He intended it either for Sylveon or Glaceon. I'm just Eevee hunting myself right now, specifically for a Sylveon. (Ideally female, but that's gonna be a [sonic slicer] to find.)
I recommend a Calm Nature for Sylveon, it's Physical Defense is very bad.
Even so, I could always just dedicate some EV training to that in particular.
I need to train Leafeon, Glaceon, and Sylveon for Strike Force Eon! XD

I think it took me somewhere under an hour (40 minutes or so) to fill Affection fully, during my live stream (http://www.twitch.tv/vixynyan/profile/pastBroadcasts).
It evolved into Sylveon when I defeated Gym Leader Korrina (Gym 3). ^^
I was playing Unlimited Head It (yarn bounce game) all the time to get the best food items, then I just kept "petting" her chest, she liked it. >U<
I'll try and find the exact time frame when I trained my Eevee in the live stream...
Yeah Head It Unlimited or the Puzzle Game on Hard is the easiest for me.
The berry one is the one I'm best at. I just don't have good enough timing for yarn bouncing.
I can now do the Puzzle Game on Unlimited. It took me a while to get use to it, but I've improved immensely.
But yeah, Head It is the easiest way to get the best cupcakes.
I'm (almost) unstoppable at the yarn bounce~
How'd you record your 3DS anyway?
It's currently sold out, and require hardware modification, but:
http://3dscapture.com/
I see. I recall in the early days of the 3DS, another Youtuber did it with an HD camera and video editing software. Video quality looked just about the same as yours.

You've always been good with yarn! [eyebrow]
This quality is directly from the video source, records at exactly 400x240 (top) and 320x240 (bottom), and you can choose to expand resolution if you want. PNG screen-caps are possible too, with no color loss. ~w~
We should record a battle of you kicking my sexy ass! XD
Does expanding the resolution cost quality much? That resolution's a little bit pitiful...
BTW Sakura. I still have your Overbite!
I'll get it when I get home, I have plenty of Aerodactyls.
Okay. Later tonight then.
I really should be catching more Dittos, I need to find a Jolly one.
I just got one with Imposter
I don't really need one with Imposter really.
Neither do I really. XD
Also, I updated the already awesomely updated list with a few more entries. XD
This one Ditto is breaking a lot of balls.
Sounds like something I'd say! XD
Well there's no other way to say it though. :\
4 gyms down, can finally Fly. Gonna catch some Scatterbug fodders for Scatterbug trades!
Also, I hate Route 13. I hate Gible owning my Doublade with Evolite while breaking my balls.
I find it ironic that my Friend Safari is Ice-type for X considering my username. :P
Though Ghost-type for Y seems appropriate considering how Gengar is probably my signature Pokemon.
Personally, I think DarkWaltz being Dark is pretty awesome! 8D
I like how my Safari gives out the Starter with probably the best ability ever.
Yeah, Protean is pretty insane.
And it's fun to say.
And a Solar Power Charizard is no slouch if you have a Drought Ninetales handy in doubles.
And Chlorophyll Venusaur is a beast!
Thick Fat Mega Venusaur is pretty awesome too.
Well, I have used Chlorophyll Venusaur and Solar Power Charizard with Drought Ninetales in B2W2 triples. It was like dropping hydrogen bombs on the enemy.

At 480p and watching at 480px width (large window on youtube), it looks fine to me. Then again, that's internal resolution for the 3DS. I prefer to record at 1:1 aspect ratio (similar to emulator/hardware screen sizes). o.o
Any larger screen size makes the screen slightly more smudged (with expanded pixel filtering) and might not look sharp.

It's kinda of a shame that there's no in-game Trainer that uses such deadly combinations in battles to make the Pokemon Battles really challenging. I remember the old days of Red and Blue, my Charmander and I lost against Brock and Misty so many times until I finally beat them and it was totally satisfying, unlike today where it's super easy to beat the first and second gym without too much trouble.
Well to be fair for the first gym, unless you picked the right type-advantage Starter Pokemon (Bulbasaur and Squirtle), there no other Pokemon that had a type advantage against the Rock Pokemon (Pikachu is the only early Electric-Type Pokemon and a rare one, the Bug Pokemon, Pidgey and Rattata, Nidoran M/F) making it quite the challenge.
Those were the days...

If you want to have a slightly easier time in catching Ditto, besides the O-Powers, lead with a Pokemon with a high catch rate, like... Caterpie, and let it hold a Smoke Ball.

NOW ALL GO FORTH AND SPREAD THE PESTILENCE
Made one tiny update to the Safari list. Also it doesn't show my third, though it should be available. I beat the game a long time ago.
http://www.serebii.net/xy/friendsafari.shtml
Seems like my Friend Safari gives out these Pokemon:
1. Pansear
2. Larvesta
3. Ninetails/Braixen/Fletchinder
I wonder what my Slot 3 Pokemon is?
Kinda cool I'm the one that gives Larvesta from the list. ^_^
Did you beat the game yet? Cause I only have your first two.
I'm at the Elite Four now... I'm about to beat them. I got three Pokemon over LV70 and it's the three Starters in their Final Evolution, Blaziken, Yveltal, and Druddigon. I think I'm ready to take them down.

Why
You're about as bad as that guy I know who used two Lucarios
As long as you got a bunch of Full Restores, you should be fine I think. When I did it all my mons were 80 or above and I had no problem at all. Just log on when you're done.
Well, Ruri beat me AGAIN, but that was probably the closest battle ever. That one came down to, like, the last 10 HP...
Speaking of which, random damage variance totally bit Ragnell (by Doublade) in the ass. Tonight just isn't my lucky night. Before that battle, some random person froze my Charizard on the turn he was about to KO a Mega Mewtwo Y.
The good news is that I figured out that Team Flare's theme is Battle Music 6, so at least I lost with style. 8B

Misty was satisfying to beat, but she really was overkill. Starmie is an endgame-viable Pokemon at a higher level than you're able to control without the Cascade Badge.
Trying to pass the plague to you, Ruri.
I'm on Victory Road, currently. Just kicking ass and taking names.
I'm done with my 3DS for tonight, but I need to remember to nab the 'rus from you myself, Quickie.
If Dratini, Vulpix, Froakie, Joltik, or Honedge interest you, I've got plenty of 'em.
@Hypershell
Oh god... that Starmie was a PAIN in the butt to kick! Doesn't help that Pokemon over LV20 by this point won't listen to you meaning you have to be underlevel to beat her team. A Pikachu really comes in handy at this point.
And just beat the Elite Four and Champion and watching the credits... honestly Gary/Green/Blue and Cynthia were the only truly strongest and most difficult Pokemon Champions to fight. Kinda miss that level of challenge from the Pokemon Champion Battles.

I agreed, felt like something was missing.
I'm not sure about Fire Red and Leaf Green, but in the original Red and Blue/Green versions before getting your second Badge Pokemon only up to LV20 will obey you and over that before the second Badge, traded or not (as the wikia says), the Pokemon will sometimes not obey you which happened to me in the past.
VC your third is Ninetales.

I think the rule of thumb was that Pokemon you caught yourself obeyed you ten levels higher than whatever the highest guarantee of your badges is. However, the Cascade Badge is the first such badge; Boulder Badge has no effect on obedience. And yes, Pokemon you caught yourself disobey you above Level 20 if you don't have it. I can only assume that means traded Pokemon cease obeying above Level 10, but I never did test that.
Huh interesting, I think Bulbapedia needs to do more research on this.

Oh? Eevee was at Route 10? I have yet to check the Friend Safari (Who had Normal again?) to see if I could grab an Eevee there. Also in my guide book it mentions you can get an Eevee from a Maid at one of the Pokemon Hotels (which she randomly appears) and will trade any Pokemon for it.

Now you have to find him 10 more times, also found 3 Eevees and my egg still didn't hatch yet. And it was at the final stage when I posted that edit.
EDIT: Also found Articuno again.

Is it random like with the other past Legendaries like Entei?
And found Eevee on my third encountered, I shall catch him and call him "Fable". Just having LV70+ Pokemon make this hard... perhaps my newly acquired Snubbull could help?
Or Quick Balls, Quick Balls are your friends.
And yes it's random but you can track it with the Pokedex like always if you want to chase it. I had a lot of encounters without actually chasing my bird.

I see.
Sadly Quick Ball failed for me but I manage to catch Eevee with my Dusk Ball since it's night time but it took several Poke Balls and my Snubbull helped a bit but was getting owned so I had to call her back.
How do you check the IVs for your Pokemon in X/Y?
My Eevee I got is LV20, Adamant nature, Adaptability ability, and his stats:
HP 55
ATK 35
DEF 25
SP. ATK 22
SP. DEF 32
SPD 32

Aw... my Eevee is "decent all around" but my Greninja I got from self-trading has "superior potential" which is nice to know and that extends to Chesnaught as well, named Gawain. Sadly my Tamamo (Fennekin's final form) is decent too.
Funny as my Pokemon caught has decent stats while my traded Pokemon have better IV stats.
Caught 5 Eevees before my egg hatched, along with the one I evolved into Sylveon and the 2 I got through Wonder Trade before I stopped I have 8 and can have my own Strike Force Eon.

Mine has a Serious Nature. Serious Mewtwo is Serious. He also is mischevious. So far, after one massage, one berry shake, lots of pets, Puffs, and playtime, his affection level is at four. He went from wanting to kill me in my sleep to one-level-away-from-forever love.
Oh, he doesn't like having his head pet. Stick to belly rubs. Mewtwo likes those.
I caught Mewtwo (love the little cutscene when you're about to fight him), but he has a
Calm nature which I don't think is a perfect nature for him (and capable of taking hits).
What nature is perfect for Mewtwo?
Though it seems like my Mewtwo has "outstanding potential overall" with 151 to 186 IV in total and all but it's Sp. Def is amazing... does that mean his IV for all of this other stat is 31 while his Sp. Def is shafted?

If you want to get a jump on raising his affection level, though, getting him massaged and a berry shake worked well.

It is.
How much is a wonderfrou perm?
I guess the developers assumed we would swimming in PokeDollars.
Honestly I think its only 500 Pokemoney for a Furfrou grooming.
Also, managed to become stylish enough to get inside snoody McShop.
Those prices aren't that bad. I was expecting exorbitant millions with how much it was hyped up to be super expensive, not just hundred thousands.
Hundreds of thousands is still quite exuberant.
Maybe so, but its still not as bad as it could have been.
Anyway, outside of like the Gym Leader music and the stuff that's just from the older games but remastered a million times like the Gym Theme I'm starting to get sick of some of the music. Lumiose and the Main theme particular are grating as [tornado fang] now. They have this fake grandiose thing going on and its bugging me for some reason.
X,Y,& Z's legendary music is pretty catchy!

I did because he now loves me forever.
MEWTWO LOVES ME FOREVER
My job here is done. I'm going to bed.
FOREVER LOVE
Hmm I'm having trouble deciding what items to give to my Pokemon. I already decided to give the Zoom Lens to Mienshao to slightly raise the accuracy of High Jump Kick, a Choice Scarf to Florges so it can wreck [parasitic bomb] and Aerodactyl is going to get the Aerodactylite so it can Mega Evolve and Revenge Kill everything. But what should I do for a Cloyster, Esclavier, and Gengar. I'm toying with giving a Life Orb to Esclavier but the other 2 I have no idea.
When/if I ever get a life orb, it's going on my Solosis (eventually reuniclus) as it's magic guard would let it take advantage of the boost without any of the side-damage.
Since there's people on now...
Sapph... What's your Vivillon pattern?
Sakura... Could I trade my Scatterbug for your Scatterbug?
I'm at school right now so it'll have to wait until way later since you'll probably be in bed by the time you get back.
That, or I'm at work.

I have the High Plains which I believe is exclusive to California.
OK, I need to catch more Scatterbugs...
And in a forest that has many Bugs, they are not popping. >_>
Well my Florges and Aerodactyl are now Friends forever.
Caught two Eevee's, one male and one female (which took a while to find).
Oddly enough they both have the same amount of affection towards me.
Gonna ask you too, Clefant. 8D
What's your Vivillon pattern?
So I just read that the power of Crits were reduced from 2x to 1.5x, Nuzlockers rejoice?
First some moves have their power decreased, and now crits too?
... BOO
... *shrug*
They really wanted to make the game easy it seems.
It's already easy with the experience gain from catching Pokemon and the new EXP Share. D:

Damn that's crazier than my habit of getting Female Dragons 99.99% of the time.
Despite that drawback, I'm back in Lumiose City after clearing the Power Plant... And I'm REALLY getting lost.

Hmm should I forgo Waterfall on a Cloyster for Whirlpool, Toxic Icicle Spear and Rock Blast so I can kill anything that is not Steel or Ghost very slowly?

Yeah that's why that Smiley Face exists, it let's you know that your Pokemon is now immune to Pokerus.
Finally re-caught Mewtwo again and this time I got a Serious Nature Mewtwo that likes to thrash about. I went to the guy in Kiloude City and he says my Mewtwo's Attack, Sp. Atk, and Speed "can't be beat" so I assume that I got perfect IVs for them then?
If so I got a three IV perfect Mewtwo, sucks I couldn't get them all, but this is nice for now. Plus his nature and characteristic are just like from the Pokemon Origins special which is cool.
The only problem is that Mewtwo's Nature gives no Stat bonuses, though I guess it would be good if you don't want Mewto to be overpowered,

I think I should give Cloyster Leftovers.
How do you turn your Pokemon around in Pokemon Amie? Trying to get to the back of Mewtwo's head to pet his tuber thingy connecting the hack of his head to his back.

And I have tap my Pokemon... wait BEFORE it falls? Like before it reaches the bottom screen?
Before it reaches the bottom.
Also I think I'm going to use a different Strategy with Cloyster since Escavalier can do its job better. Maybe I should use the Obligatory Shell Smash instead?

I see, duly noted. And Shell Smash?
Also how long does it take to get Max Affection on your Pokemon? (like Charizard and Mewtwo?)
Probably arguably the most overpowered stat move in the game, it's basically Agility, Nasty Plot and Swords Dance in one for the cost of lowering Defense and Special Defense.
Also PB thank you for having Corsolas so I can teach Shellder Rock Blast and have an HM slave.

Um, pet him, feed him puffs, play with him; you know, the general thing to do. I believe Vixy posted a video on how a few pages ago.
Sorry I only caught one, and Males are very rare. Did you beat the game already?
Yep, I did.
Then you can go to PB's Friend Safari and try to find a Male one.
Also infected my awesome Mienfoo with Pokerus.
I'd love to, but I guess he has his Friend's List full since he hasn't added me. Oh we'll, I can always use Poisen Jab for my Cloyster and wait for PokeBank to get my old Cloyster.
Side note, finally got 4 of my members of my team. Only need to find at bug and Breed some Cloysters.

Super Training with Mienfoo seems easy.
Look at that, I didn't know that there was an update for the game. Fixes the bug in that one city that I forgot name to from what I read.
I just call it Paris!
I tried super-training Runaway to increase his stats, but they're already maxed out. I guess I can work on Mewtwo for a while. I might take him to the Move Reminder and get him one of his older moves. Recover needs to go, I have Potions and Berries for that. I'd like him to learn either a Sleep-inducing or a Paralysis-inducing move for Legendary capture purposes.
He can learn Thunder Wave via TM, nothing about Sleep Moves though.
Yeah, I was tempted to give him Thunder Wave. Runaway used that for a while.
It's really the only way.
Time to teach it to Mewtwo! I may still take him to the Move Reminder, see what else I can teach him. Three Pokemon on my team knowing Psychic is a bit redundant.
Aura Sphere is usually good to have on him.
Well, if you can't wait for Mewtwo to learn his signature Psystrike at lvl100, you can TM Psyshock, which is a slightly weaker Psystrike. And since yours is X, and you might Mega it, relearning Psycho Cut would be nice.
In all seriousness though I feel like my team has come along way. I still need to train up some other 'mons so I can rotate them around depending on who I'm facing but for the time being I think this current line up is satisfactory.
But I'm still testing it out.
It seems pretty good to me. Sorry I couldn't battle you Ruri. I was in the middle of something.
Critical hit? Buuuulllshit
Ruri's 3rd Ghost is Dusclops in his Friend Safari.
Mewtwo has Aura Sphere, which he's keeping. I'll go have him relearn Psycho Cut for a while. Tack on Thunder Wave for paralysis, then go off and catch some Legendaries.
He'll be going through the Battle Chateau again shortly. Once he's up to snuff, I'll start rotating out members of my current team and raise some new teammates.

Since I'll be trading with Sakura, might as well go all out.
Over the coming weekend, I'll be trading Scatterbugs, which will evolve into Jungle Vivillon. I'm trying to get as much patterns as I can in RPM... So all I'm asking for is your games' Scatterbug for mine. It's win-win!!
Doesn't matter if repeat patterns. It helps in the Lottery with so many IDs. See? Win-win!!
Oh. If you want nicknames on them, tell me too. As for me, just leave their Species name. XD
I might've trade Spitball, but I can catch another. It will have the blue polar pattern. As for a nickname? Call one Polyphemus, if it fits. If not, Cecropia.

...you know, what's bugging me most about Gen6 is the lack of move tutors. Dragonite's physical movepool really suffers for it; no way of getting Superpower, Extremespeed, or the punch attacks without importing from previous generations.
Yeah it really sucks, I hope there's an update and Move Tutors are not only reserved for Pokemon Z or whatever.
Wishful thinking, I'd imagine. Still, it'd be nice...

My first shiny I ever got was a Drowzee from Silver version (I was playing in the dark and I didn't notice it was a different colored Drowzee, this was during the GBC era so no light screens in the dark yet, but I did thought it looked a little different but I didn't caught a Drowzee yet and caught it. Next morning I found it out it was a
shiny purple Drowzee to my surprise!).
What's the encounter rate for a Shiny Pokemon? And is it possible for Starters to be shiny upon receiving them or via Egg only?

I'm sure. Maybe if you pull out a cheap Mega Mewtwo when I'm not expecting it like 'shell you might have a chance.

Hey, give him a break. He is working on his team. What you need is better type coverage then. Short of your serpent and the mega-'mon, you don't have that many attackers either. I was able to beat his Mega Mewtwo. I personally don't use Ubers (Though I bet its going to launch the Megas in there), but we make do.

Oh no I beat him in the rematch just fine, it took me by surprise is all. It's still a fair lose on my part of course but I think my team is good enough to beat any challenge as is for the time being, any defeats will be because I messed up not that the team wasn't up to scratch.
I was in a battle when you challenged me, Ruri. Just catching trade fodder and checking out the Friend Safari. Also, grinding Mewtwo. He's currently on my team for leveling purposes and I rarely use his Mega form.
How'd you like the Friend Safari, Quickie? XD
It's awesome! You have the Rock type, so I'll check that out tomorrow.
I sure do! 8D
... That was harder than I thought.
The list stays as it is. ._.
Finished breeding the perfect Absol, Blaziken, and Manectric in my Y game. Bred a perfect Houndoom in my X game, moving onto Amphabulous! owob

Mega Tyranitar is very nearly Mega Mewtwo's equal in stats, barring weather disruption. The auto-Sandstorm gives his already bulky Special Defense a 1.5x boost.
And Ruri, Speed Boost Blaziken is Uber according to Smogon. Using that on your team waives your right to [sonic slicer] about legendaries. There's a reason I picked Charizard over Mewtwo the first time I fought you; I'm willing to give people a good sporting chance, but I also don't care to pull any punches after someone's proven themselves capable, and I certainly do not expect my opponent to, either. You've given me a sound thrashing in 3 out of 4 matches. I have every confidence that you're competent enough to meet any challenge that I throw at you.
And challenge you I will. As 'maru said, my team is far from final: It's only today that I'm able to even BEGIN to breed the Dragonite(s) that I actually want; I have numerous other team members to train and experiment from scratch, and not to mention have need of many BPs for TMs and proper hold items. It'll be a while before I'm up to full force. In the meantime, I'll be happy to rematch regardless.
I hate to say this, considering how absolutely stupid Mega Mewtwo Y looks, but he does have the greener grass when it comes to battle performance. Mewtwo's physical movepool is considerably more limited than his special.
Hatching Ghastleys, frustrated I'm not getting the Speed IV I need.
My team-building will be pretty slow. I don't battle competitively, and I'm still getting used to all the changes the game has gone through over the years. I'd like to get some more TMs for Mewtwo to choose from, as my selection is rather limited right now in moves that I actually like to use (I tend to go on the offensive, mostly).
Until I get around to building some decent teams, I'll be soundly and swiftly defeated in whatever match I'm in. My current team was built to beat the game. They did just that. I trained for just that.
Just as one more nitpicky comment to add to the pile, why does the Pokemon Maison bother to include selectable battle music yet limits it to less than half of what is available for Wifi battles? Really bites that the most awesome tracks in my book are 6 and 8 (Team Flare Grunt and Kalos Legend, respectively), yet Pokemon Maison allows only the first four.
While backtracking to pick up some Scatterbugs, I happened upon trainers I hadn't fought before, probably because I merely skipped them. Those battles were sad. Really sad. I felt so horrible, the victories were so very hollow.
"Go, my level 4 Pikachu!"
"Let's be merciful and end this as quickly as possible, level 73 Mewtwo."
For the record, Fling does not work with Mega Stones.
...don't look at me like that, I was searching for other physical moves that Mewtwo can learn. -u-'
Mine is set up with Thunder Wave, Flamethrower, Psycho Cut, and Aura Sphere. He and Quacklin' are Team Capture.
Quick Balls are your friends.
I use them on Abras. Every Abra that I see I capture.

Mewtwo is needy as hell in Pokemon-amie. Granted, he's been battling a lot, but one minute, he wants fed, then the next, played with, then fed, then played with, then fed again.
Just a bit of info I'm hoping might help a few people ^u^
Shiny Pokémon are appear more often in Friend Safari IF your Friend is ONLINE and PLAYING X or Y at the same time you're playing Pokemon X or Y. Chose a Friend's Safari which is ONLINE.
• Keep a knocked out Pokémon with the Illuminate ability in front of your party (ex. Chinchou, which can be caught in Azure Bay) it increases random encounter rates.
• Make sure the person who owns the Safari is playing at the same time as you.
• Use your Bicycle in the grass.
Helpful for getting Shiny in FC Safari.

Zebstrika! 8)
Hmm I'm considering running Mega Gengar and switch between that and Mega Aerodactyl. It would help with Dragons since it gets Dazzling Gleam.
I need to get a hold of Alakazamite for Runaway. I must see his badass beard and SPOONS!
Just need to find the damn stone, first.
It's in the Reflecting Cave between 8-9PM real time.
Ah, okay. Thanks! Runaway will be thrilled.
What exactly do I need to do to upgrade my Mega Ring?
Wait, it needs to be upgraded? Is there a limit to Mega Stones?
Go to Kiloude City and battle your rival again (which you can do everyday). After you do so, he/she will give you Absolite and a message to get your Pokebutt to Anistar City to talk with the Prof. After talking with him in front of the sundial, he'll upgrade your ring and tell you that the Mega Stones will glow between 8-9PM real time.

Ah okay I'll get to that when I'm done training, I need to get my Heracross up to level 46 to learn Megahorn and then breed it with Karrablast so it can learn Mega Horn. This is seriously the first time I'm breeding for Egg Moves.
I never really did it before, but breeding is really easy & convenient in this game. It was nice of them to put a long path right by the fuckfarm. XD

I use Cyllage City myself, or spin around the fountain in the other town because I love the Roller Skates.
I just bike back and forth along the path, because it's right there! 8)
Yeah I do that too, or Lumiose city.
So, how long generally does it take for an egg to hatch? I have several I need to hatch.
Not terribly long. It goes faster if you have a Pokemon that has the ability Flame Body in your party, nuzzling against your egg. Talonflame has wuv'd my babies! 8D
None of mine, currently, have that ability. I'll need to check the box.
First order of business, though, is to go beat my rival tomorrow (not tonight, got a terrible headache that gets worse with each coughing fit), upgrade my Mega Ring, and get Runaway his rock.
Dammit, brain, stop trying to force me to word it as "get Runaway's rocks off," sicko brain!
Quote from: Quickman on November 06, 2013, 08:43:45 AM

Depends on the Pokemon, even with Talonflame I feel that Aerodactyls take forever to hatch. Ghastleys however are lightning quick.
Magma Armor also works to make Eggs hatch faster as well.
If you want, Quickie, I can breed you a Magby. He has Flame Body, and will help!
Plus, Magmar is awesome! 8D
Rock Slide is really great for Mienfoo.
Sure, I'll take a Magby. Its name? Hot Stuff.
And earlier, as I was backtracking to the empty cave with Earthquake in it, I once again happened upon trainers I haven't fought. As I shake my head sadly at the thorough and swift and downright murderous defeat I will deal as they send out a level 4 Pikachu, I say, "Mewtwo, I think we got this one in the bag. What do you think?"
Mewtwo seems curious about Trak's Bag...
...that's not what I meant.
My Mienfoo is so adorable. Also I haven't come up with names for my Pokemon yet.
Mewtwo is the only one I didn't name. I decided last minute to let him keep his name, rather than name him Cherenkov.
My problem is that so far my Pokemon are female, even my Aerodactyl.
Most of mine are male. I generally name them regardless of gender, but I try to make an effort here and there. Got lazy with the umpteenth Weedle I caught and named it Apis florea.
A few were named by Ringman, and some got lazy names based on some characteristic. Male and female Sliggoo? Slimer and Brain Slug. Hariyama? Sumo Slappa. Got Cthulhu Mythos references, Star Wars references, a Trevenant named Treebeard, a Noctowl named Bubo, and a host of whatever other crazy names I could come up with.
And I'm still trying to think of more.
Inkay better have a Cthulhu related name.
Haven't caught one yet, but I know already what I'd call it: Old One
I wonder how Runaway will feel about me dropping him off at the daycare with his new mate, Norma Rae... Will he like her? Or will he merely mate just to appease me because he knows I'm after an egg? Sadly, I doubt any female Abra I catch will ever be the perfect mate for him.
And is it just me, or does an Alakazam sound like it's blowing its nose?
Mega Aerodactyl sounds like an Elephant.
Also the Ghastley I'm using is Male, I'm going to name him Hades.
After doing the math, I am going to need a total of 328 BP for items only found there. Way to be a dick, GameFreak. Oh well, with only one more member to be caught, breed (Bread?) correctly, and EV trained, time to grind away.

If it were an anime, the girl would repeatedly reject him while missing home, but after certain trials and bullying from other Daycare residents, it turns out Runaway is a kind caring 'mon how constantly looks out for the girl. After realizing she loves him, they fight a horrible trial where then suddenly everyone recognizes them as heroes.
Then make many babies...

Well I've been working at it on and off for the past few days... but all told a few hours? It's painfully easy to get into a cycle of hatching an egg, depositing it and picking up a new egg, repeat. I try to have 5 eggs in my party at all times (and my Fletchinder with Flame Body too)

Finally explored the whole of Lumiose City, and picked up all the items there.
... And finally met with the Hex Maniac. Creepy.

Rumor has it that the Hex Maniac is actually Darkrai in disguise and the one that it is looking for is Cresselia.
*shrug*
Also got the Strange Souvenir from the Hiker.
... That thing is creepy too.
It hints at the possibility of a new region coming soon though. :D
Turns out there was a Female Ghastley with the same IVs and Nature as the other, maybe I'll train both one for normal and one for Mega Evolution.
Swept Clemont under the rug.
Currently enjoying the last 15mins of the special birthday Pokemon Center theme.
So touched. ;~;
Phi should hurry up and beat the game so I can laugh if his Friend Safari lineup is identical to PB's.
And it's 10mins into the 7th.
... I'll miss that theme...
My Ghastley uses weird soccer balls in Super Training, they're Orange but some of the balls are Grey. I know my Houndoom had Orange balls but not the Grey ones, very odd. And Serebii doesn't have data on those mixed balls, nor does it have data on the Black ones my Mienfoo uses.
I think it's nothing special, just that each Pokemon has unique balls that they use. I don't think it affects anything.
I remember the game saying that all pokemon have different charged balls... Wow, this could be really taken wrong for someone who hasn't tried super training to know what it is. o3o

Making attempts to get a good natured Mewtwo... I should have kept the Brave one so I could go physical Mega Mewtwo X, but I passed it up and reset. Now I'm getting everything I just don't WANT.
Mine is Serious. His good points are his Sp. Attack, his Sp. Defense, and he's a hit sponge. A hell of a hit sponge. He had more HP at 70 than the rest of my team ten-fifteen levels ahead of him!
So, I have a Mewtwo meat shield.
Mine is Naughty. And I have a Jolly Zygarde.
I never did catch an Abra, so I set out to get one last night. Saw Moltres THREE TIMES before I got my first Abra. XD
Does anyone know if the breeding effects of "Power" items (guarantees its corresponding IV will carry from that parent) and Destiny Knot (fixes it so that 5 IVs from either parent will carry) can be stacked? I know you can't stack two Power items...
You know, if you wanted an Abra, I have extra. I catch every Abra that I see. Got Copperfield and Uri Geller available, though I'm keeping Norma Rae as Runaway's mate. Copperfield has Synchronise as his Ability, while Uri has Inner Focus. I'd need to check their Natures.
Got my 7th Badge now.
Also got a Sylveon and that's pretty much it in terms of notable pokemon I've gotten.
Posted on: November 06, 2013, 07:21:10 PM
Got Xerneas now.
That [tornado fang]er just didn't want to get caught, took a Timer Ball of all things to get him.
I'm saving the Master Ball for Mewtwo, its got his name on it basically anyway.
Well it IS literally monogrammed for him, plus it's his colors, so you can't really argue with that.
After a fair bout of unlucky breeding, I suddenly got two near-perfect Dratinis with Marvel Scale, one of each gender. Soon......very soon......
And 'maru, thank you for the chance to use both Mega Charizards in the same battle. That was frikkin awesome. 8)
Seriously. The moment I saw your Charizard, I was like "It's on!" Victory for at least winning that battle... Man I got trashed though. I guess it happens when you got only 3'mons battle ready (Dragonite has wrong moves. Had to teach him Surf for various reasons...). What scared me the most is suddenly facing my own Charizard.
Hypershell counter: 1 win/1 loss

Ugh, breeding for perfect IVs is almost not worth the effort (or will not be until I import my perfect IV Dittos from Black) and it is getting to the point where I believe Game Freak lied about the Destiny Knot. Hell, I gave a Torchic with "Loves to trash about" (AKA 31 Atk IVs) a Power Bracer to hold and some of its brood have "Proud of its power." What the [tornado fang]?

So, where the heck is Calem? I want to upgrade my Mega ring.
In Anistar, by the giant sundial.
He's not there. I want to battle him.
Oh Calem. He's in the Friend Safari city, up by the pool.
He's not there. Is he only there certain times?
OH wait. I just remembered. You have to go to the Battle Mansion in the Friend Safari town first. Do one battle in it, then exit out. After that, Calem should be up there.
No written guides I'd seen mentioned the Battle Maison. Had to learn that bit from a Let's Play. The internet really screwed up there.
Yeah I found that out when I went to search for "Mega Stone Locations" and such.
So, I found St. Elmo's happy spot. He really likes chest rubs. Quacklin' likes head rubs more than tummy rubs. Flamin' Yawn is all about the tummy rubs, while Runaway loves having anything rubbed. Still working on locating Mewtwo's happy spot.
It's a shame that Runaway doesn't use his spoons to eat the Puffs.
Eevee likes the light hair tuft on its neck, Sylveon likes the bow on its neck.
I tried petting Mewtwo's head, but he just gave me a death glare, "you are lucky I even let you pet me at all." Might try the legs or arms, he might like that.
Posted on: November 07, 2013, 09:46:59 AM
Found it. Mewtwo likes having his hands rubbed.

He could have also easily mistaken regular training for super training.
So that was the regular Super Training? My bad, thought there were only 3 levels to it... didn't realize there were two more after it. Sorry for the confusion.
Yeah, you unlock the other levels once your Pokemon gets fully trained (EVs maxed). And they can only be accessed by Pokemon with max EVs. And you have to unlock them one by one.
But they're great for getting stones.
Are we still posting pictures of hacked/event/legendary pokemon not found by normal means? Because I seen posts of Lugia, Celebi, Mew, and another in X & Y from the KYM pokemon picture gallery.

Unless you're me.
Seriously, I got Hard Stones for over half of the events despite clearing the target time by quite a bit. I got a few Stardust as well but other than that all Hard Stones and one or two of those wings.
I found that a time of between 2:10-2:20 remaining was beneficial. It seems that the prize pool changes depending on time remaining.
Found Runaway's happy spot. It's his right (your left) hand. Just his right hand. Don't touch his left (your right) hand, he doesn't like that.
Runaway, why don't you want me touching Lefty? Are you hiding something?
That's his "business" hand!
...
No doubt it's thoughts of me that he's doing his "business" to.
Runaway, you cad. 8D
Upon closer inspection on your sketch, Quicky, it looks like Runaway's nose is awfully close to...

Runaway seems interested in your scent...
I just realized my Mienfoo has the wrong ability and I have to breed another, at least this means more experience for Heracross so he can learn Mega Horn to pass it to another Karrablast. I wonder if my entire team will end up Female.
I am guessing you are not up for just earning 200 BP? That's what I am going to do with my Cloyster since it has the right IV's, but the wrong ability.
I'm tempted because her IVs are amazing, but I also have things I need at the Battle Maison. But I'll consider it since she's been fully trained already and I got full affection too.
So, the Nurse Joy at the Battle Maison is a bit of a [sonic slicer], isn't she?
Not that I blame her, she's burned out from work. But is being polite too much to ask? Off-duty, she's a stuck-up [sonic slicer].
Oh, and I caught a Sableye and named it Jewelman. Caught a female Stunky and named it Fifi la Fume.

101 Shinx eggs and no shiny.
Why couldn't I be as lucky as I was with that Chespin?

One reason why I am waiting until I can transfer my Gen V Pokemon (with a few exceptions.) I used a Pro Action Replay to get Dittos with perfect IVs to use for breeding. As such, I consider them semi-legal since I caught them in the wild as opposed to PokeSAVing them.

I currently have the perfect, Electrike, Torchic, Absol, Aron, Mareep, and Houndour! XD
Working on the perfect Charmander for my Y game, which will be special attack based.
Sadly I still need more Pokemon with hidden abilities. Seriously, DAT Protean Greninja, Adaptability Dragalge, and HOT DAMN SPEED BOOST BUFFED SCOLIPEDE!
EDIT: Just caught up on the last couple pages of conversations and felt compelled to address Barbaracle. He may look odd, but look at his stats and moveset. He's a MOTHERFREAKING Carracosta on steroids!
He's still ugly. :P
Ringman said that Delphox is ugly. Delphox is awesome. Binacle is ugly. Barbaracle is even uglier. I need to show him that hideous thing. He'll change his mind immediately about Delphox.
I fought one of my buddies who had a brilliant Barbaracle. You'd be surprised how quickly your opinion on a Pokemon changes when you face up against a Barbaracle with Shell Smash, an ability that boosts all physical moves by 50% and the moveset of the goddamn Avatar.
Oh, I'm not denying its move set, or potential. The one I faced in the Elite Four was something of a beast, gave me more of a challenge than the rest. And if I raised my Binacle, I'd no doubt love how much punishment it dishes out.
It still doesn't change the fact that I think it's ugly as sin. :P
Tanngrisnir crushed Barbaracle in the Elite Four!
There are a number of Pokemon that I dislike their designs for some reason or another. I never really cared for Steelix's underbite lantern jaw. I still love my Steelix, because she's a hit sponge and a fairy-killer. I didn't like Lucario because he took Mewtwo's spot in SSBB, and his poofy shorts and chest spike look goofy. However, I love Pavorotti and I never want to take him off my team.
I can separate design from potential if the potential is good. Just because I hate the design doesn't mean I hate the potential.
We should all just train 6 Ludicolos and have them recorded in the Hall of Fame. Watch them dance around you in celebration of your victory.
Ability Capsule... a capsule that allows a Pokemon with two Abilities to switch between these Abilities when it is used.
Cost 200BP, that's quite a lot of saving there.
Does this include Hidden Abilities too?
Nope. It doesn't work on mons with hidden abilities either.
Damn, that sucks. Not worth it then.
How do you get the Protean Greninja hidden ability?

It better be so, given my time zone conflicts with you all.
I want all your imposter dittos.
ALL OF THEM
AAAAAAAAUUUUUUUGGGGGHHHHHH
Why doesn't anyone tell me these things?! >_<
Also, totally forgot I have a perfect IV Kangaskhan chilling out in my X version. I'm on a roll!
Okay I couldn't stand waiting to see what all the talk is all about, so I decided to go ahead and downloaded both X Y games from the eShop on to my 3DS. Don't ask why.
Starting with X version.
Playing a little over 30 minutes of this game this is my experience so far. (As last Pokemon game I've ever actually finished was long ago.)
- Not all scenes are in 3D. Certain ones like pokemon battles are in 3D.
- I hate coming up with a trainer name, let alone another nick name of myself. I usually take about 5-10 minutes just to decide for both type of names. >_<
- I thought for some reason you are given two pokemon starters in this game instead of one. One from the new Kalos region, and another from the old Kanto region. Did I read wrong somewhere?
- Starting off with a Froakie.
- Caught a pidgey before the pokemon capture introduction (bah, like someone of my intelligence would need this, cause I don't.)
- Caught a scatterbug. I can't remember, is this the first form pokemon that eventually evolves into that #666 butterfly with the regional wing designs?
- Caught a green Pansage Lvl 4.
- Tried the mystery Gift. Says I got the Torchic, but I guess I have to venture forth a bit to the pokemon center to obtain it.
I am currently going to try to catch a Butterfree, err.... I mean a pokemon that eventually evolves into it. Also going to try to catch a Pikachu sometime whenever.
Also, having trouble viewing what my Amie (food, love, music) stats are for pokemon. So yea, i'm still pretty new at this. >_<
You will get your Kanto starter at Lumiose City after you battle Prof Sycamore. Lumiose is after the first gym at Santalure.
Yes, Scatterbug evolves into Vivillon.
Butterfree comes from Caterpie, found in route 2 & Santalure Forest. Pikachu is found in the forest too, but is rare.
You can get the Torchic in the Pokemon Center at Santalure. The female attendant to your left at the main counter.
Amie. Bah, Amie. Once you click on your main, there should be a button with 2 arrows, iirc. You switch the Amie Pokemon there, and can sees the stats there too.

Went on a capture spree, getting repeats and ones I didn't have. I switched Runaway to the front, and the very next wild encounter was an Abra. Thanks, Runaway! I caught three more Abras tonight, including another female. Her name is Miss Cleo.
Caught a Miltank, too. Watching those bouncing udders and then Miltank using Milk Drink brought a very... disturbing image to my mind...

Fair enough. Sometime soon then! :D
Ok... When I wake up tmr... It will be 10am... So that's... 9pm.
Yea, I'll start trading from 9pm Quickie's time.

That would require me to set aside time from Charmander breeding to breed another Kangaskhan. I'll make you a deal, I have ONE Kangaskhan with x/31/31/31/31/31 IVs (Yeah, I am REALLY good at this) that has Jolly nature (+Speed -Sp.Attack) and the egg move Double-Edge to aleviate breeding. If you can get me any of the following Pokemon with their hidden ability I will consider trading it: Eevee, Scolipede, Greninja, Dragalge, Ditto (with Perfect HP IVs), Pinsir, Heracross, or Alakazam.

I really wish that GTS would allow viewing a Pokemon's full summary. It's troublesome having to take others at their word, and I've already caught somebody lying about their Ninetales.

You have to have both been online so that your trainer's mug is visible instead of just the shadowy question mark. Once that's done, you can get Hidden Abilities at any time, online or no.
I thought the shadowy question mark meant that the person hadn't beaten the game yet.
As for GTS, I just ask for a hatchling of what I want and offer trade fodder.
And I caught all 3 monkeys from the one forest area.... I actually didn't see the fire type (?) coming out of a forest area. >_<
I'm already at 6 pokemon. One of them got transfered to box 1. There's more than one box? I take it you can only access the box at a later time, like at the pokemon center?
Yeah, you access it later. Until you get to Camphier, it's known as "someone's PC." I started organizing my party immediately before I met Cassius.

Total boogies, I'm trying to get it to work but I HATE these Class 10 SD Cards. Don't use them for 3DSs, I ordered a 32GB SD SDHC Card so hopefully I don't come across this issue anymore.
I can't believe this, I can't self-trade with myself at the moment now because of this SD Card issue.

Well aware of that, I've just been having rotten luck.
Okay, I'm going through Reflection Cave. I need at the very least a general idea where I'll find Runaway's new toy. Is it where I found the TM for Gyro Ball? Should I go there and wait for a half-hour in that shiny spot?
It's in a pool of light, is it already 8?
Not 8 here, but 8 in the game. I'm heading back to the pool of light. It's where I found the TM.
Yeah it should be there.
Pool of light, game time is 8:38, real time is 7:39. I'll wait a half-hour, as there's nothing in that pool of light.
Did you try exiting the cave and coming back, or maybe you have to use the Mega Ring.
Mega Ring does nothing. Exiting would take far too long. My game's clock may not be set right. I'll wait it out.

It might be the only way, didn't you have a Pokemon with strength push that boulder or a Pokemon that can learn Dig. Or and Escape Rope?
I'm right at the room with the pool of light and I'm all out of escape ropes. Just fought two Pokemon in that pool.
Maybe try going down a floor and back. Also I don't recommend changing your time, I have a feeling it would mess it up and you won't be able to find it in a few days but I have to verify that.
I've been through this cave twice now. I'll wait it out. If I can't get it, I'll try again tomorrow.
Okay in the mean time I'm having trouble getting the Skill Link ability on these Shellders.
So I was able to catch both Male and a female Pikachu.... My female one now at lvl 6. The male one I caught was later, so it is still a lvl 3, or something. I couldn't decide which one to keep, until I realized the majority of my party was. 3 of my pokemon are male, 3 of them are female, including the pikachu being there. Unless I change my pokemon during the game much later on, I may keep the female one. I was going to try to catch a male caterpie, but it ended up being a female instead.
Yea I've played a pokemon game before now. Like Vixy said I was just curious.
I'm also curious about the super training works. The one with the soccer balls. Does that eventually level up your pokemon and helps it evolve? Or does it only increase HP, defense, offense, etc? Is there any difference if a pokemon gets all gold medals in all the super training events? Or is that just a personal thing?

Waited it out until it was 8 real time. Still no Mega Stone. It's that area with the big pool of light, right? The one where you can leave by going up steps and jumping over a ledge? i'm standing right in that damn pool, walked around, pressed A, nothing.
Yes it should be there, better check tomorrow starting at 8 and bring Escape Ropes. Also since the Female Shellder had Shell Armor I only have a 20% chance of getting Skill Link. This will take a while.
I have ten Escape Ropes that were hidden behind my Repels. Starting tomorrow near 7 my time, 8 game time, I'll head back in and find Runaway his Mega Stone.
And speaking of Runaway, he mouth-breathes. The camera panned and I could see his mouth hanging open.

Okay, but all it says is it gives you other bags to train with, to increase EV's. It doesn't mention anything about level increase. So the Effort Values are saying that its there for effort as the name suggests, but not really there in terms of real stats, the stats you actually have during in game battle?
It helps your real stats, it affects which ones increase faster.
Damn... wanted to try out that Mega Stone searching trick now that I've upgraded it but now I'm unable to play Pokemon Y version because of the damn STC SD Card.
I can only play the X version for now.
How far are you in that version? If you find Alakazite, let me know so I can have a general idea of what I'm looking for.
And does it matter if I search in the AM or PM? Those are flipped for my game.
It should be 8-9pm in the game I believe.

My X version is just me transfering over my Torchics, Kalos Starter Pokemon, and the Kanto Starter Pokemon with the Mega Stones. Basically my current run is the first Gym and soon on my way for the Kanto Pokemon.
I need to do this two more times (for Charmander and the X Mega Stone and Squirtle with his Mega Stone) and then I can start the X version for real this time.
Y version for my 3DS XL (currently unplayable at the moment due to 3DS not detecting the STC SD Card)
X version for my old 3DS
Once I officially get my X version set up I'll send a FC for it for you guys to register it. Hopefully it has the Fairy Type you guys need for FC Safari.
Okay can someone explain to me what PR video is, and what O-Power is? One of the ppl on my friends list has a blue O around them. This has something to do with O-Power?
Also, how do you send gifts to other ppl? I see other ppl are giving me presents in the Amie. Do they just randomly appear when you pass by, or something? Or do you present the gifts?

O-power is orange aura, iirc.

The stones start sparkling at 8PM 3DS time (So changing the time to 20:00, I believe). If you are in the area itself, you just go back to the room with the TM and then go back to the Room with the pool of Light. Should be there.
If not: did you do the prerequisites of searching for mega stones?
1. Beat Champion
2. Go to Kiloude and do 1 battle of Battle Maison (Doesn't matter what type of battle)
3. Then exit Battle Maison and go north. Fight your rival. Receive Absolite from rival as reward.
4. He/She will tell you the Professor is waiting for you at Anistar City in front of the Sundial Stone (The big, pinkish/red gem in the northwest of the city).
5. Talk to the Professor and get ring updated. Whether or not the ring will work on that same 3DS "day", I am not sure, but it should detect Mega stones at 8PM from now on.

I emptied my party, save for one Pokemon, and it's still saying someone in my party that I cannot trade. Which makes NO sense since I'm not trying to trade anyone in my party.
Weird...
That Spewpa had Pokeball-mail-sort of icon on the top right corner.
What is that?
Could that be the reason?
Possibly. I dunno. I'll check. If not, I'll just catch you another.

Thank you all for participating in the first Scatterbug Bonaza.

Yes, that's why I caught that male Corsola. Also forgot the mother could also pass on moves but whatever. Also I think I have to stick with lower level Super Training for now due to her having rapid fire balls.
Pewpewpew... Attack is a definite must.
Woke up and dragged my butt through Reflection Cavern, covered in Max Repel and grabbed Runaway's Mega Stone.
OH GOD HE LOOKS SO AWESOME
Totally worth the lack of sleep! Guru Runaway has so many spoons and such a manly beard!
COULD YOU ASK GURU RUNAWAY WHAT IS THE ANSWER TO LIFE
I asked and he just made his clogged-up sinus snort sound.
No wonder he mouth-breathes; his sinuses are caked shut!
But if his sinuses are caked shut... How did he smell your scent!?
This may be a stupid question, but is there a way, or an option to disable/enable exp. share in this game? Just in case I want to level up just one character to balance my party, if it's the lowest lvl of my bunch or something.
I just got the first gym badge from the bug gym. Got both my butterfree and vivillon.

He blows his nose a lot, so he can smell sometimes, but he's snorting snot back into his throat all the time. Hence the sound. Mouth-breathing during battle because it's easier than snorting all the time.

Okay thanks.
Out of curiosity, can you transfer an old pokemon from x or y, back to a ds game? For example, training a pikachu on x or y. Then take it with you on black2/white2 or just black/white.
Though obviously you can't do this with new x/y specific pokemon, that's a given. But I was just curious of the others in x/y that have existed in the past games.
As far as I know, when I read the FAQs for the Pokemon Bank, you can't transfer X/Y Pokemon back to older games.
Even previous generation pokemon? Awwww..... Then whats the point? But I guess starting playing again with pokemon x/y is best, considering there's so many ds games. Whether they are enhanced versions, directors cuts, or new pokemon ds games of their time.
I wonder if there are plans for a new pokemon stadium game for next gen consoles. Though I can't remember when the last one was, but seems like something they would do, given that there are new pokemon now.

I probably could, I was just wondering if that would be better than Razor Shell.
Besides design/appearance differences and attempt of breeding, are there any differences between male & female pokemon in x/y? I read in earlier games there are slight stat differences. But is that not the case any more?
Not sure. I know Meowstic is different based on gender but as for others...

Better use my Action Replay to clone my Pokemon then I want to transfer over.
Also I finally got my new 32GB SD Card and it works! I can play Pokemon Y version again hooray! ^_^
Now to finish up getting Charmander (Mega Stone X) and Squritle (Mega Stone) and add in two more Torchics with their Mega Stones and Hidden Ability.
Well...... There's also the Apple iphone/ipad app store, which has unofficial (fan made?) pokemon makers/creators that supposedly can transfer over on to some DS games. Though there are none for X Y yet.
Also, while having multiple forms of Vivillon is a nice idea, I still hate the fact of how they're obtained. I live in the US, and got the modern form design. I mean, if it's the same character, why all the different forms specific to their region? It's like saying Japan shows exclusive anime on TV, US has exclusive tv live shows you won't find anywhere else, etc. The only way to view these shows is via dvd import, or share online. Which is how we're currently having to deal with Vivillon's different forms. So what's the point then?
BTW. 18 differnt forms (minus the new 2 sp.event versions). 6 + 6 + 6 = 18.
3 dots on each eye = 6
Polar, Tundra, Icy Snow, high plains, jungle, river = 6 dots on each wing.
- ^ 6 different forms with 6 dots on each wing.
Mind = BLOWN
In terms of transferring Pokemon, you can transfer to X/Y, but you can't transfer from X/Y. So, if you have a perfect Pokemon from Black, you can bring it into X. But, you can't take an X Pokemon and bring it into Black.

Oh I see, so the new Pokemon from X and Y can't be transferred over including Pokemon caught there. Only Pokemon from B/W(2) can be transfer back and forth, as long as their moves aren't altered to have the new X/Y moves.
Unless you mean you can't transfer from X or Y back to the previous versions regardless.
Yes. We mean going to X/Y is a one-way trip. There is no going back from X/Y with trading at all.
That's mainly due to coding and that some previous-gen Pokemon will recieve new types when transferred over to X/Y. Older games cannot access the Pokemon Bank, which will be a major factor in transferring from previous games, too.
Basically, I could transfer a Mr. Mine from White, but I can't send it back because it now has a Fairy subtype. B/W also can't access the Bank; it wasn't encoded to do so.
Just Black and White 2 versions only? Kinda horrible... :<
Good thing it's free for the first month, after I'm done with what I need I'm removing it from my console/account.
Just don't see the point after transferring your Pokemon as it's a one-way trip (like with Red/Blue/Yellow with Gold/Silver back in the day but it's was reasonable, no "paying" to transfer) and only the ones you need.
How hard is it to get a Shiny Pokemon with Perfect IVs (all 31s) and Perfect Nature for them? And how much EV can a I Pokemon have again? I believe it was 255 in total?

Bank will probably be used for all future generation transferrals so you'll probably have to pay for it eventually, besides you're not paying for the transfer aspect of it but rather for the online storage.
You can transfer from Black and White, and B2/W2.

You know, all these trading restrictions have been in effect since Gen2, transfering from an older generation to a newer generation is acceptable, but you cannot go the other way.
Anyways, I'll have the Scatterbug Bonaza again for the next hour.
Any other takers?
All I'm asking is your Scatterbug, for my Scatterbug.
I'm probably going to be home in about 2-3 hours but I need to trade with someone to evolve my Haunter.
Honestly, I don't see what the problem is to pay $5 a YEAR for server upkeep. I bet many of you have memberships to various stores that require a yearly fee of about $25. I have two memberships like that, one to Barnes & Noble, the other to Books-A-Million. $5 a year for server upkeep and a place to store all my Pokemon is a drop in the bucket.
It's five dollars. A year.

Yeah, I was thinking this myself...
@Quickie: I've had people [sonic slicer] at me saying that $5 is sometimes too much for people to afford and being broke almost all the time myself, that makes me wonder... Why the [tornado fang] are you wasting your money on a 3DS and Pokemon if you can't even spare $5 for anything? Why the [tornado fang] don't you use that for more survival reasons than a damn video game?
Ditto, and I haven't played since Johto.
@Mirby: Exactly. I am not made of money and this holiday season will be a bit tight. My last couple bills were a bit overdue (not by much), but more to do with other circumstances rather than money. I live on a fixed income, and I pay my rent, utilities, plus groceries and medical copays. Compared to my MONTHLY budget, five dollars annually is nothing.
What the hell kind of lifestyle are people living when they cannot afford to set aside a single Lincoln per year?
$5 a year is about $0.42 a month.
That's not even two quarters. You could save up enough just from change you find on the ground. I know money can seem like a lot, but $5/year is still nothing.
I have a change jar, which I need to eventually take to a Coinstar. I can assure you that I have accumulated a considerable amount of cash in it over the course of the year, enough to pay for the annual fee and more. If people are that damn worried, set up a change jar for the fee. Drop your change in it every day. I guarantee within a week, you'll have the fee paid off.
I still wonder how payment will be made.
If it's via eShop, I'm royally screwed either way.

I think I'll go on another Abra hunt. I'll put Runaway in the starting position to deal with the inevitable Scraggy hordes that I hate so much. Dazzling Gleam takes them all out in one fell swoop and they topple like dominos. God, I love you, Runaway. It brings me so much joy to see you sweep a horde like that.

Also see it from this point of view:
PSN Plus is $50 per year. (https://store.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com/#!/en-us/become-a-member/cid=STORE-MSF77008-PSPLUSMEMBER)
Xbox Live Gold is roughly the same. (https://live.xbox.com/en-US/Subscriptions?workflow=ManageSubscription&SubscriptionTier=Gold)
These are reflected prices on the type of content the providers are offering.
Surely you can afford $5 a year, which is pretty much nothing. XD
Here's my Pokemon X version, second 3DS, FC: 4356-0040-3575
Let's see which FC Safari this one gives!
Caught two more Abras. One is named Fu Manchu, and the other is the Amazing Prosciutto.
Now there was a ham.
*badum tissh*
Turns out there are some really nice folks on Wonder Trade, who actually use the markings on their breeding attempts. It's always good to check the markings on the pokemon you receive.
I've gotten a few 3V or 4V pokemon, and a few of them in species I eventually wanted to raise. Maybe tonight, I will continue refining the 4V Timid Litwick I got.
Still don't know if I should teach my Shellder Explosion or not.
Hey Sakura, I am on if you need to trade you huanter. Just give me a sec to be beaten by Ruri.
Okay thank you.
yeah i can't beat anyone anymore
i'm quitting pokemon bye
Ah, I have only 1 win to your 4. The reason our battle ended the way it did is 'cause I was starting to be able to predict what you were going to do thanks to our battles. It's really was a good battle. I recommend with sticking to a Main 6 with only 1 or 2 replacements. If you keep changing your team a around, it gets hard to master them.
Okay let's try this again.

I figured. I had a sense that you had no idea what you were doing with that Mega Manectric. Seriously, good though. I felt a hallow sense of victory winning knowing you didn't use your full strength and I only used 4 battle ready pokemon (Cloyster still needs to get fixed).

I don't think I have any Pokemon I can ride, but if I had an Arcanine I'd ride that. IT'S SO FLUFFY! ~w~

That music man, that music.
SOOOOOOO MUCH FUN!
And oh man, watching Runaway Mega Evolve and take out Scraggy hordes... Oooooooooh...
So I'm at Victory Road now, kinda cool to see the 3D being used in the hallway up to the entrance.
I see there's [parasitic bomb] that I need to push around so I have to go get my HM Slave Diggersby out of the box to move this [parasitic bomb]. [tornado fang].
My Lapras became an HM slave for that whole route. I dug Anne Bonney out to use Surf, and needed strength. She's running three HMs currently.
I just spread Strength, Surf, and Waterfall to the teammates that could learn it since those moves are pretty decent and really my Dragagle had nothing else to do. Unfortunately other than Thunderbolt Dragagle was probably one of my least used Pokemon, especially during the Elite 4 and Champion fights, and anything Physical killed it, my Florges had less problems with this.
Diggersby has both Strength and Cut, gonna give him Rock Smash as well.
Greninja has Surf, was gonna give him waterfall as well but his moves are fine how they are and I don't want to get rid of Hydro Pump or Water Shuriken.
Pidgeot has Fly.
Lapras has Waterfall.
God.... Haunter is hard to run into on Route 14. o-O
I still got a LONG way to go before I complete the Kalos Dex. Anyone got an extra Kangaskhan to trade away?

But it only has 15 base power and it hits 2-5 times, and knowing most luck probably only 2. Sure it has priority but Greninja's Speed kind of negates the need of something like that.

Anne Bonney became an HM slave out of necessity. She knows Surf, Waterfall, and Strength. I intended for Thumper the Steelix to be an HM slave, but she isn't used as often as multipurpose Anne. Pavorotti has Rock Smash and Quacklin' has Cut, which rounds out the rest of the team. As long as I have Pavorotti, Quacklin', and Anne, I'm good.
Now, who should get Earthquake... I'd like to teach it to Mewtwo, but currently he and Quacklin' are my main capture Pokemon. I may give it to Pavorotti, as Power-Up Punch is losing its luster.
I'll take your word for it guys.
Got my perfect Larvitar, named it Tahtarok. Can anyone get that reference without googling it?
Returning to my X version to breed my perfect Mawile.
I admit it, the ending left me a bit teary-eyed. Also what happened when I went back to Anistar to the guy to whom I lent a Bidoof.
Holy balls. Sakura, please get online. I must have that Protean Frogadier... O^O

Getting there. It's in the backlog.
Remind me to thank Pyro. I got my second shiny today in the Friend Safari, a Lapras. Only nitpicky downside, she tried to Perish Song me and didn't want to stay Asleep, so I had to use a Repeat Ball; not my preferred home for Lapras.

Ah, I have only 1 win to your 4. The reason our battle ended the way it did is 'cause I was starting to be able to predict what you were going to do thanks to our battles. It's really was a good battle. I recommend with sticking to a Main 6 with only 1 or 2 replacements. If you keep changing your team a around, it gets hard to master them.
Yeah, I beat Ruri because I knew his first two 'mans like the back of my hand. The strategy in itself is deadly, but knowing what's coming, it can be blocked.

Hopefully the Slot 3 Pokemon is better.

You could try Chain Fishing or Poke Radar Chains. There's also the Masuda Method where you breed a Pokemon with a Pokemon from a Foreign Country which ups the chances of getting a shiny. Those are the ones that are confirmed so far.

Poke Radar? I'm aware of Chain Fishing, but Poke Radar chaining? How do you do that?
Anyway finding a blasted Haunter in Route 14 is a pain in the butt! Heck, I can't even find any Ekans horde with the Honey I have.
I'll try the radar and Masuda method. The most I've tried were the Friend Safari bike tricks, and I also go on my endless Abra hunts.

It's been there since Gen 4, you have to get a chain of 40 or higher without the chain breaking, and they made it a lot more frustrating in this game.
I have never once used this Pokemon Radar or Radar trick at all, so I don't know how this trick works.
Perhaps it's better to trade for a Haunter or a Gastly? Finding one is getting ridiculous.
I'm gonna have to look up the Poke Radar since I've never heard of that myself.

Now I'm hanging in Mirb's Friend Safari to try to find an Impish Ditto. Also considering making a Second Team with Mega Heracross and Starmie.
Downloading Pokemon X, as we speak.
Still catching Dittos, and infecting things with Pokerus.
Since I'm new at this, be ready for some potentially annoying questions.

I caught mine in the Frost Cavern. Try looking there. They're not very common, but I was able to find one after a while. Be patient.
Abras aren't common, either. I've captured more than ten, traded two, evolved one, have seven or eight left.

I'll trade an Abra for one. I have a few with Synchronize.
Let me see if I can breed my Heracross after I catch this Ditto, though I would prefer a Clawitzer.
I have extra Claunchers, but no Clawitzer.
On second thought do you have a Synchronize Abra with an Impish Nature? I'm going to see if I can catch that Heracross though it'll take a while since they are rare.
I'm three seconds from losing my marbles. People on GTS are stupidly dumb. All I want is a motherFREAKING shuppet and a litwick but NOOOOO, everyone want their goddamn impossible mons. O:<

Holy [parasitic bomb]. I did NOT know you could pet your Pokemon after they win a battle. THAT'S AWESOME!!!

Still looking for a Heracross, maybe by the time I find one Ursula will evolve into a Mienshao.
Still looking for an Impish Synchronize Abra. I have Mild and Lax Synchronize Abras, but no Impish ones... yet. Went on a hunt and caught a Timid Inner Focus.
I went back to hunting for Dittos, I wish there was swarms in this game so I could catch a horde but I have to settle for Mirb's Safari.
Posted on: November 10, 2013, 05:39:03 PM
Okay I am at a box and a half of Dittos and no Impish, does anyone have an Impish Ditto or something with Synchronize and Impish Nature.
Abras with Synchronize: Jolly, Rash, Mild, and Lax. I'm still looking.
So, I started the game a few hours ago. But I find myself completing a bunch of Super Training regimens, rather than getting to the real meat of the game.
Not that I'm complaining. The mini-games are fun, for the most part.

Ah, I see. In that case: Quickie, I got a Heracross if you want one. Just trade me if you see me online. :)
Oh cool, reading this thread I didn't know you could pet pokemon after battle. That does indeed sound awesome! :)
Anyway, something random happened on my touch screen when I was in super training menu. A strange dark looking training bag dropped from the top for 1 second, and went back up. I couldn't quite read the message after that it goes by so fast. Is this some sort of rare bonus bag or something?

Yep, randomly, the Pokemon finds bags. These can be any stat S, M, or L, a Reset Bag, x2 Bag, or a Team Flare Bag.

There's a few more if I remember correctly.
Well, I do remember I got this Pink bag once. I don't remember what it did though, though for some reason...
Oh yea, it increased a Pokemon's Happiness. Other than that, I don't know.
Say, does anyone have a spare Shellos to trade?
I just encountered Zapdos twice in the same field.
Articuno's already in the Sea Spirit's Den.
I'll post this in the FC thread as well but I'll probably be playing on my XL from now on which means if you still want to battle me and such you'll need to add my new FC:
4613-7596-0805
Let me know if you add me and I'll add you right back.
Just dropped off two Synchronize Abras at the daycare. I hope to get some different natures from their pairing.
I wish I could've gotten Zapdos. I wanted one to name Blitzwei :C
How about when I catch mine, I name it Blitzwei for you? :)
Sure, I'll trade you my Moltres. Any specific name you'd like for it (currently it's the rather boring Phoenix)?
I was actually thinking of keeping the Zapdos, only naming it Blitzwei, as it's a nice name for it.
Until I can level up a decent fighter, he'd be my strongest electric type, and I have an abundance of fire types.
Fair enough lol
Just screwing around on wonder trade, hope to get lucky and get a shellos.
Seriously, if any of you guys have one lying around I would love to trade.
Just bred a Modest Synchronize Abra. Leaving the lovebirds in the Love Shack for a while longer until they produce an Impish.
Either way, I'm amassing an Abra army.
Yes! I finally got a Haunter! Going to the Frost Cavern helped, I encountered Haunter on my second encounter there upon entering.
And I went back to Route 14 and finally got an Ekans! Thank you Combee and your Sweet Scent! Took a few tries, but got them to appear on the 7th attempted.

Do you have a Ditto with an Impish Nature? If you give it an Everstone there's a 50% chance the Pokemon will inherit the parent's nature (with the Everstone) making it easier to get one. Or any Pokemon with Impish Nature that gets along well with Abra.
I do not, so Abra Army for me.

I don't think I have one that can breed with Abra. I have an Everstone somewhere, though.
QuickEdit: Just double-checked. I do not have an Impish Pokemon that can breed with Abra. Thus, I'm still building my Abra Army.

Sheesh, that's horrible. I would least you would at least get ONE of every nature by now after beating the main game.
I have a Ralts with an Impish Nature, but I can't breed that with Abra. None of my Inner Focus Abras are Impish, either.
Dang that sucks... so NONE of Ralts' evolution forms can breed with an Abra or the rest of this evolution forms?

I'm still debating if I should teach my Cloyster Explosion.
There's some other things I wanna know.
- No matter how high level your party is, is the Gym leaders always 1 or 2 levels ahead of you?
- What is the purpose of your Pokemon Amie decorations you can add in that empty area? Is it just for show, like in a house, or does it actually change stats or something? What about adding the Poke Puffs in the room?
- How long does it take people to complete through the game, and get to elite four in this game? Last I seen Vixy stream through that one weekend she was already half way, and beat it within that same weekend she streamed. But it looks to me that all pokemon games have been really long.
But my main stream goal was the "story" aspects (Gym Leaders, Elite 4, Legendaries, etc). (http://www.twitch.tv/vixynyan/profile/pastBroadcasts) Collecting the rest of the stuff takes much longer. Also I play other console games too, you know.

Ask yourself this:
"Has this ever been the case in any pokemon game ever?"
And you'll find your answer. And if you want to check, I've been so kind as to provide it under the spoiler.

And you'll find your answer. And if you want to check, I've been so kind as to provide it under the spoiler.
[spoiler=The Answer]no, this is not nor has it ever been true.[/spoiler]
Know what also has not nor has ever been true?
Trading backwards from generations after gen2.
And yet...

I wasn't the one asking those questions but yeah that should've been common sense.
And even though you could trade back to Gen I from Gen II it still had a lot of really complex rules for it to work. With Gen III to Gen IV it was one way because it would probably be difficult for a DS to transfer things back to a GBA cart.
Gen IV to Gen V was just needlessly complicated though, it should've just been Pal Park again instead of "Hey play this stupid tedious as [tornado fang] minigame to get your pokemon"

PB, I've got plenty of Adamant Marvel Scale Dratini (and sorry I wasn't on much today...). Not much comes to mind in return, though if by some odd chance you have access to a Chespin, that'd be swell; GTSers seemed oddly stingy with 'em.
Any special nicknames/gender? For battle cry reasons, I don't nickname Dragonites I intend to use in a fight, but my HM slave is named Dulcy.
Awesome. Yeah, I have a Chespin I can spot you!
TIAMAT (full caps) for the nick name and Female please (since Tiamat in the D&D cartoon was a girl)

Ugh, my performance against Ruri today was pitiful. Started strong in both battles, lost the first due to a Critical Hit on the LAST TURN and an incorrect battle item, and the second due to absolutely horrible switch-in decision on my part. -AC

The problem is that I taught my Gengar Dazzeling Gleam instead of Sludge Bomb. Also not a big fan of the over use of Gurdurrs and Sawsbucks with Double Edge.
Wait, what moves did you teach your Gengar? At least if you led with Gengar, immunity to the DEs.
Maison Doubles is evil. One trainer makes his Delibird use Frost Breath on its ally Tauros.

Quote from: N-Mario on November 12, 2013, 02:12:59 AM
There's some other things I wanna know.
- No matter how high level your party is, is the Gym leaders always 1 or 2 levels ahead of you?
As had been mentioned several times, this is not, nor has ever been the case. If you've been following my progress, one thing you'd note was that I had a MASSIVE level advantage. My team was easily twenty levels ahead of the gym leaders. Twenty levels ahead of the Elite Four and Champion by the time I got to them.
The secret? Grind like hell. The level cap each badge is an invitation to grind and grind and grind.
Quote- What is the purpose of your Pokemon Amie decorations you can add in that empty area? Is it just for show, like in a house, or does it actually change stats or something? What about adding the Poke Puffs in the room?
You can place cushions and chairs in the middle of the room where other Pokemon congregate. I have three chairs and a table there. When you place objects like that, the screen will show a white dot where you can put them.
You can drop a Puff into the room and visiting Pokemon will eat it. Sometimes, they'll leave you slightly better gifts.
Quote- How long does it take people to complete through the game, and get to elite four in this game? Last I seen Vixy stream through that one weekend she was already half way, and beat it within that same weekend she streamed. But it looks to me that all pokemon games have been really long.
Depends on the player. Some people took a few days. I took a few weeks, as I spent most of it grinding and earning money to buy stuff. It's up to you how long you want to take.
Hey PB, did you breed a Blitzle for me yet? If so, anything particular you want in return?
Oh yeah, I still have to do that.
Ummmm, what cha got that you think I might want?
Thanks for the nice reply QM. :)

Yeah, I was taking my time and toward the end, I got impatient and beat the game. Now, I'm hatching Abras.
Just hatched an Adamant Synchronize Abra. His name is Max Malini. Got another egg to hatch, my Synchronize Abras are breeding like Bunnelbies.

Caught Zygarde. Named him Zardoz. Caught a Carnivine. Named her Audrey II.
Added everyone who added me.
Oh, and my safari pokemon are Ferroseed (I think), Skarmory and Excadrill.
Caught a Quagsire, finally (more of laziness in my lack of catching one), and named her Hue-manatee.

Hatched some more Abras, with Natures such as Careful, Gentle, and Relaxed. I think at this point, I'm starting to breed for a shiny. Anyone want to adopt an Abra? I'll go through my TMs and hook adoptees up with an offensive move.

Hey, Poke-fans. I have an awesome Poke-treat for ya all.
I have a link for the official itunes release of Pokemon X & Y soundtrack (not uploaded by me). It also includes some music from Pokemon Origins anime special.
PM me or some [parasitic bomb] for the link.

I'm actually gonna buy that when I have money.
Finally caught a Heracross after several attempts to find it in Route 12 and in the process encountered Zapdos three times (making it, I think my 5th or 6th encounter of this Legendary Bird).
Going to be awhile before I complete my Kalos Dex and I'm going to be SUPER busy for the rest of the week with my Final Exam, Work, Chores, and games.
Lord lordy lord lord.
Finally got past the 18 the battle of the Battle Maison.
I need a good mexican wrestler's name for my Hawlucha.
Beat the Single Battle challenge in the Battle Maison, about 80 points short of the Ability Capsule though.
EDIT: Got a PP Max in the Loto ID, if only I was lucky enough to get more eggs.
Still no Impish Karrablast. :|
I was serious about that Hawlucha thing, by the way.
I posted it in the FC thread, but for convenience... I already have PB, Vixy, Sakura, and Clefant already, IIRC.

So, heading off to Frost Cavern to hunt for Haunters. They'll all get Eldritch names.
I'm still breeding Abras. Earlier, I was hatching another Abra, so I was riding my bike back and forth, and Mewtwo was in Pokemon-amie, hopping up and down, so I decided to give him some attention. He gave me a death glare. He mad. He doesn't like riding the bike back and forth while I hatch Abras. So, I fed him, pet him, played with him, fed him some more, pet him some more, took him battling, and now he's satisfied.
Mewtwo, you needy.

WHEW. Okay, that was pretty sweet. Just got done with a Random Battle from across the net. I went in with only 4 developed Mon' and two rookies I'm leveling up and I just won.... by 2 HP. PSIMAIDEN held on long enough to deliver the finishing Magical Leaf to his Greninja.
Thus far, I'm really happy with the way PYRE DRAGON is coming along. LT.ADORABOLT is still pretty terrible. There's really no reason to use him other than he's cute. XD
I added Zardoz to the team to get him some experience. I should toss Xavier on it, too. Got some rookie Legendaries who need to learn the ropes.
I never did level up Zapdos to 100 in the previous games. Perhaps Adm. Lightning deserves some love this game.
...I just realized why Mewtwo is so damn needy in Pokemon-amie. He's getting revenge for my capturing him. I was looking forward to petting him and feeding him num nums, and he knew this, so he decided to use that against me by being so needy as to make me a slave to his every whim!
I'm on to you, Mewtwo. Don't think that by being needy that it will make me release you. You'll just be pampered more and more. This plan will backfire, and you know it. Now, have some num nums. :3
You know, Snorlax should be able to eat more Puffins. I mean, look at him!
I was thinking about starting over just so I could catch Zapdos. I was never a fan of Moltres, and there's really not much to do after beating the Elite Four (unless you're into the metagame). I know it's kind of a stupid reason, but meh.
I noticed that most of my team when I play them in Amie, they are always sleeping. All their conditions are okay, their at max affection level. Do they sleep more if you don't let them walk with you in the little Poke Amie play area? I'm just curious of the conditions. I originally thought it had something to do wit the current time. Ex. day time, all awake, night time, all sleeping. But apparently that's not the case.
Also, got 2nd badge. Just defeated 2 Lucarios by the trainer.
My Goomy is the most demanding thing ever. Nigh impossible to level and constantly demands attention and food in Amie.

So far, I've only caught Mewtwo.

Might be the time of day. In the evening, real time, my Pokemon are usually sleeping, or they have their backs turned toward me. Need a tap to get their attention. During the morning and day, they're up. That's when Mewtwo got really demanding. He demanded attention NOW. OR ELSE.
When you say sleeping, do they have their backs turned toward you? I've never actually seen them sleep, but they'll have their backs turned toward me at times, so I thought that's what you meant.
Have you played with the facial recognition software? They'll follow your head movements and request you make different expressions. The software isn't very precise. It won't register a small smile, and glasses make things difficult.
As for Lucario... His ears are his happy spot. He likes them pet.
So... I have reached the basement of Team Flare's Secret HQ, but 4 Admins are blocking my way to Xerneas' cocoon. You know what that means.
IGNORE THE WORLD AND UP MY STYLE~
... Just so when I get back, it will be more suitable for Dusk Balls.
When you get Xerneas, find his happy spot.
He took five Ultra Balls to capture, by the way.

Seriously the most boring part of the game.
I actually found that part to be exciting. Though, it did help my case that every battle was a one-hit KO. But, when the douche activated the Death Flower, I thought for a moment that I [tornado fang]'d up big time. I was cursing myself for not saving beforehand! XD
Yeah the prick activates it even if you chose the right button.
It was nice when Xerneas demanded to join my team, until he found himself the rookie and ten-fifteen levels behind everyone else. So... he kind of sucked. :P
Though Moon Blast or whatever it's called is a delicious beast of a move.
Well, I have Capture Power Lvl 3, and Accuracy Lvl 3 ready. And Hypnosis on my Gardevoir. And Evolite on my Doublade. And waiting to after 9pm in-game for Dusk Balls to have maximum effect. I'm ready!
I've yet to have Zardoz the Zygarde prove his mettle in battle. Mewtwo does all the battling (he demands it. It brings him joy), so Zardoz just gets to sit on the sidelines and watch an experienced Legendary show him how it's done.
Just taught Mewtwo Shadow Ball, replaced Aura Sphere, as it was redundant with Pavorotti on the team. Once I get another rookie up on Team Capture, I intend to replace Thunder Wave with Earthquake, as Mewtwo needs a mass-target move.
Why not Dazzling Gleam? It's multi too.
Plus FABULOUS~
Mewtwo can't learn it. :(
Runaway has it in his arsenal, though.
... I guess being a vicious experiment denies it of FABULOUS~
Oh yea, and since the weapon was activated, I took my first photo with it. As a memory of how I almost screwed up.
Lol, I should take a photo of me with the sinkhole. A memory of how I almost screwed up, and then saved the world, only to leave the town in disarray.
Eh, I'll blame it on Mewtwo. :P
Lol... Pity I forgot to take it when it was still 3 stones.
A before, after, and after-after.
Ruri fell today. 3x Dragon Dance, that was some SERIOUS Dragonite power! Toxic cut the sweep short, but Mega Charizard cleaned things up from there.
I just finished breeding a Lapras. ...can't really come up with any snappy nicknames for her.
Quote from: Sakura Leic on November 13, 2013, 12:48:46 AM
Then do all that.
Also my Karrablast and Heracross need to have more hate sex.
Maybe they should take notes from my first Dragonite. The amount of hate sex between her and that Wooper was...suspiciously high.
They aren't producing a Impish Karrablast though, why couldn't I find an Impish Ditto? Also got that Lapras today and named it Crazy Taxi.
When they sleep, they're asleep with their heads facing the camera. I've seen my Pikachu sleeping on the ground, and while standing up.
Butterfree and Vivillon sleep while they're floating in mid air. What kind of logic is that. XD
Huh. I don't think I've seen my Pokemon sleep. I've seen Mewtwo give me a death glare because he wanted attention RIGHT NOW, but I haven't seen them sleep.
Hmm what would go well with a Mega Heracross, Greninja, and a Goodra...

I would need to have seen TheOnly picture in my Friend Safari to do that, unless someone wants to trade a Gooey Sligoo to me.
It's a wine.
And I have some slimy Sliggoos. They so drippy and ick. Make the floors slick.
You don't need Gooey to get gooey. Just treat Goodra with the utmost care, and you get gooey! 8D
But Gooey is good too, of course.
Still debating whether I should go with Gooey or Sap Sipper, it's Physical Defense isn't the best in the world and I don't think it would be hit with Grass moves often.
I have one Gooey Sliggoo. Her name is Brain Slug.
Breed to get more Gooey Sligoos.
She shall mate with Slimer the Hydration Sliggoo.
Runaway would also get you gooey, but not in the same way that a Goodra would.
Yeah but before I concentrate on a secondary team, I must get an Impish Karrablast.
I'm still working on breeding you an Impish Synchronize Abra. I have so damn many Abras now! They need to go up for adoption, and I'll give them an offensive move. Not sure what, but I'll give them something, even if all they learn is Thunder Wave.
So much sticky goo everywhere!! 8D
Can't wait to catch some Adamants and Modests... Quickie... Would you on an off chance, be online later... Say... 9-10 hrs from now?

... Wait.
Taught them Shadow Ball, Dazzling Gleam, Thunder Wave, and Toxic. Hans Klok and Fay Presto are hooked up with new moves, and I'll earmark them in the box for later.
Hmm has anyone every used a Chandelure before, I never have and want to know how they used it.
I don't even have a solid strategy for beating a Chandelure. I just throw whatever move at it and see what sticks.
I mainly want to know what I can do with it, my main Fire types were Houndoom and Blaziken but with Greninja and Mega Heracross it probably wouldn't be a good idea.
I have in BW.
It's a great Special cannon... With moves like Flamethrower, Energy Ball, Psychic, and Shadow Ball. Best to have Timid, and EVs in speed and spattack. I paired it with Hydregion to counter each others weaknesses.
Should I Choice Scarf it?
If you can predict well, go for it. Though note that its defences are frail, but if you have Flash Fire, and predicted into an incoming Fire move, you can wreck havoc. Also Rapid Spin support to spin away those pesky Stealth Rocks.
I think I know what I can do during the weekend if Quickie doesn't get an Impish Abra.
I can breed my Heracross with a Ditto until I get a Female, then Breed the Male Heracross with my Female Impish Scyther to get a Male Sycther, then offspring can have sex, then I'll EV train the resulting Heracross before I breed with the opposite gendered Karrablast.
Okay... I think i'm about to regret having Charizard learning 2 HM's/TM's or whatever they are. I can't get rid of them anymore. I can only replace two other moves it has...... Now I'm curious as to why it says "can't get rid f the move, now." That "now" seems to be out of place. But if there isn't way to replace learned moves from HM's or TM's, then I am probably regretting it now.
Though got my third badge. Even with 10+ levels ahead of the gym leader, the Gym battles are still though. X_X

I was serious about that Hawlucha thing, by the way.
I posted it in the FC thread, but for convenience... I already have PB, Vixy, Sakura, and Clefant already, IIRC.

You can delete his HM moves in Dendemille Town which is after Laverre Town which is the 5th Gym. Anything that is highlighted in Blue can't be deleted without the Move Deleter there.
Sakura beat me to it, but yes, Move Deleter.
Mewtwo visited the Move Reminder to relearn Psycho Cut. I've since replaced Aura Sphere, but if I need to reclaim it, I'll be visiting the Move Reminder again.
Tidied my chain breeding post because it looked atrocious.
My boxes are looking atrocious. I HAVE ABRAS EVERYWHERE! THEY BREED LIKE RABBITS!
Wonder Trade off a few Neutral Nature ones.
Ooh! Found a Dome Fossil at the Glittering Cavern. ^_^

Managed to catch one already, but I could trade it for a Kadabra when my evolves into a Kadabra himself.
Got another Dome Fossil again, anyone needing a Kabuto?
Sent out a Hardy Synchronize Abra named Gazzo and got a Froakie!
So Looker is Norwegian it seems, are we going to Poke Norway eventually?
Do those dark spots in the Glittering Cavern respawn afater a certain time or do I have to exit and re-enter the place to get them to appear again? I need to find a Cubone and Kangaskhan to catch there but Lunastones and Onixes is what I've been encountering for a while now.
Also what fossils can I find at the Glittering Cavern? Darn guide book doesn't list it.

Oh okay, thanks.
Also, can butterfree or vivillon learn fly so I can travel to other areas? Cause I had a Pidgeot just for that just in case, but I had to put it in the box for the Lucario. I had it since it was around when I was first started the game. So I kind of feel bad. But I feel bad if I don't take Lucario, leave it in the box. It's kind of a little ways off the levels of my other parties, Greinja, Pikachu, Charizard, Butterfree, Vivillon. But what can I do? There's lot of things I regret since the characters can only learn 4 moves when they keep learning moves every 2-4 level ups or whatever. Ungh..... :-/
Wow, the odds of running into a Kangaskhan after a Mawhile (which are both very rare) back-to-back was surprising especially right after I said finding a Kangaskhan here will take forever... and Kangaskhan shows up at that moment.
Now catching it going to take a while since my Pokemon are LV80... and my Ultra Ball JUST caught it. Finally got my Khan!

Teach Fly to Charizard. That's what I did.

But he already taught it Cut and Strength. Deposit the Vivilion because it can't learn Fly and get your Pigeot back.
My Farfetch'd learned Cut and my Steelix learned Strength until my Lapras became my HM slave.
Any way to stop Pokemon from coming out of the cracked rocks? Trying to farm for Fossils and they get in the way. Does repel even work here?
It might, I never tried it. You could also just runaway from them.
Repel doesn't work for rocks.

Ruri fell today. 3x Dragon Dance, that was some SERIOUS Dragonite power! Toxic cut the sweep short, but Mega Charizard cleaned things up from there.
Just so you know, when I'm using a team that doesn't include my Mawile I'm not at my best :3
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?

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.

Alright I see.
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!
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.
I just want to try new mons and see what works for me. :\
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.
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. :P
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.
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.

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

Ready for winter, and the coat should dissuade Runaway from groping me so much.
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.
I aimed the iPad camera at the DS screen, snapped a pic, cropped and uploaded it.
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.

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.

Surf is a pretty decent move, so I saw no problem with teaching it to Anne Bonney.
Indeed, Surf has always been a good HM move. Waterfall is in a sense the physical version of Surf, and is pretty good too.

There's a photo spot in Azure Bay, so I have a pic of me astride Anne Bonney.

Okay I decided to check Meatloaf's/Unkawaii's Friend Safari.
HE HAS BOTH IVYSAUR AND QUILLADIN IN THERE! :o
Ares & Kayla have some great Fire types in there Friend Safaris as well. I'm still waiting for Lou to finish the game so I can see what his 3rd Fire Type is.
He also has Tangela.
Unkawaii is so kawaii now.
Only HA Wartortle left...
God damn, just get in the ball, Kangaskhan! I've thrown six Poke Balls, one Great Ball, and I finally caught her in a Dusk Ball.
Okay the game is taunting me, both the Tangela and Ivysaur are Impish Nature.

Ruri's second Safari is Bug with Masquerains and Butterfrees.
Ahhh. Our first Bug.
I wish we had a Fairy Safari, with Togepis. I want some Togepis.
PB, mind helping with our first Steel too? I believe Sou has it a few pages back.
Okay I was surfing around route 12 to find swimming trainers to battle, I came across an empty cave after I passed a short island with a patch of grass in shape of an arrow pointing up left. Is this a sp.event pokemon in here, or do I come back here after I beat the game to see it?
Also, random question. Pokemon with max affection why do they always look to the right during battles? What are they looking at? Why not look left to the other way, or up in the sky for that matter?
They're looking to the right cause they're looking back towards you, their Trainer.

I think you meant Azure Bay, and that cave is the Sea Spirit's Den. That is where Articuno/Zapdos/Moltres will eventually go to after you encounter them roaming in the Wild for 10+ times in the post-game.

Now back to raw, raunchy Pokebreeding. Damn hard to breed moves that I really want my Pokemon to have! -_-
Yea I think I read something about those birds. So post game means after the elite four. Hmm, I donno if I'll be able to find the cave again , but I'll see when I progress later.
Man, GF really thought about their players in this game. They make all the good stuff accessible after beating the game.
And is every single one all of the pokemon existing in this game, split up between two games even if you can't catch them? Or is there specific regional pokemon absent in this game?

It's a mix and match of Pokemon, with some available in Y and others in X. As for Azure Bay, you'll find it again. Just Surf around. You'll need to chase Articuno/Zapdos/Moltres around for a while, though, before the bird settles in the cave in Azure Bay.
As for what the Pokemon are looking at, they're looking back at you. Giving you a look as if to say "don't worry, I've got this."
It's especially cute when they look back at you after you pet them after a battle.
And I finally caught a Mawile, along with repeats. Went down Route 10 again, caught some repeats, including two more Sigilyph, which I named Hastur and Huitloxopetl.
People... I have caught a Togepi from my Fairy Safari. I will be breeding him when I evolve him, anyone want a Togepi?
Finally. I got my team sorta set up. All I need is to get the right moves onto my last member, get the items for him an my other 'mon and just grind them to 100. They are full EV trained, thought not perfect IV'd. Not going to bother with that until PokeTransfer comes online and I can get my special Ditto from BW.

I have in BW.
It's a great Special cannon... With moves like Flamethrower, Energy Ball, Psychic, and Shadow Ball. Best to have Timid, and EVs in speed and spattack. I paired it with Hydregion to counter each others weaknesses.
Basically what Doc says, although this would be the set used back in Battle Subway. Should be suitable for Battle Maison (I don't actually know yet) but for link battle, swap Psychic for Trick.

Used one to the end in B2. It was a solid fire/ghost type, and helped me out quite a bit. I'd recommend taking advantage of that ghost-type STAB and focusing on that type, with a fire move like Flamethrower thrown on top.

He's been pretty obsessed with it for a few weeks or more and it has been going on for a while. I had a similar problem but with another person, and I felt it might have been a bit more justified simply because it's faster to look it up yourself than asking people unless it's a more complicated question like how the [tornado fang] you're supposed to get the Mega Stones and the like. I just ignored it most of the time except for one instant where I felt it was quite enough and that they needed to look it up themselves rather than rely on us to answer it.
I can understand Joe's annoyance and I'm not saying he's wrong in saying it simply because sometimes looking it up may be faster and better understand as well as the fact sometimes we can't answer because we're busy. Though it seems in this case N-Mario may need more help to understand. At least that's how I see it.

Quote from: Ruri on November 13, 2013, 06:06:49 AM
Just so you know, when I'm using a team that doesn't include my Mawile I'm not at my best :3
Fair point. Just so you know, my "best" teams tend to be geared towards Double Battles. But I still have a ways to go.
Yea, even though I 'could' look it up myself, I still would like a nice explanation while I'm here.
For example, I looked up how acquaintances are supposed to work. I don't have any on my list. So for me to get someone on the aquaintance list, I would have to battle, or trade with someone?
Also, even though they explain o- powers in the game, I'm still confused about this. Is this a feaure only if you have friends on your FC list and online or something?
Friends - People you registered their 3DS codes
Acquaintances - People you Wonder Traded, but I guess GTS could also be here
Passersby - Strangers picked up by the 3DS wireless
O-powers have a short description on the top screen before you use it. You can either use it for yourself, or give it to the 3 types of people above, if they are online. Using them levels them up for increased effects. All O-powers start at lvl1. Using lvl1 15 times unlocks lvl2. Using lvl2 30 times unlocks lvl3. Lvl3 is the max. Energy to use these powers at located at the bottom screen, and you have 10 units. Each unit takes about 4 minutes to recharge at default.

You have to beat the game for the other fossils to show up. Gen 1 fossils are exclusive to Y and Gen 3 to X.
Quote from: Dr. Meowly II on November 13, 2013, 06:39:51 AM
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
Quote from: Sakura Leic on November 14, 2013, 12:32:45 AM
Though it seems in this case N-Mario may need more help to understand. At least that's how I see it.
I'm totally justified, some of these questions or "observations" were either already explained or completely obvious and are things that don't need to be spoonfed to him. The more complicated [parasitic bomb], fine whatever. The stuff that is easily found with a simple search, its better to look it up instead of having to rely on others to feed you information like a child.
I'll shut up about it now (And by that I mean that I don't need a snippy retort from somebody for being blunt).

Are you kidding me? I could've found Old Ambers easily if I didn't beat the Elite 4 and Champion? That would've saved some frustration when I was hunting it and only got the other Fossils.

Yeah I admit when I was looking for the Old Amber to get my first Aerodactyl in that cave it took a while to actually do it. Old Amber is sort of a rare drop.

Well I'm glad I finally found one and got an Aerodactyl along with his Mega Stone. Going to start breeding them soon.
Cleaning up my Black and White PGL accounts today, I think it's time for me to stop using them now.
No way of transferring my Japanese games' points to Poke Miles, but oh well.
EDIT: On the plus side, my last trip into the Japanese games' forests yielded both Heracross and Pinsir (who both have Moxie)
Oh you bastard. Wanna trade a Moxie Pinsir? I have a 5 IV Larvesta.
It'll have to wait until Bank
W-what? What bank? :\
http://www.serebii.net/bank/
This was announced a long time ago and we had a huge pissy discussion about it a few pages back.
That one? I already knew about that. I just don't understand why he'd have to wait until it is released to trade with me.

Wow I am stupid.
Eh don't worry I've missed bigger details before.
Hatched another Abra, with a Docile Nature. Took the love birds out of the daycare and dumped in my Sliggoos. Sloppy Sliggoo sex just to produce Gooey Goomies. The daycare will be covered in slime!
Looks like I'll have to do that convoluted chain breeding method on the weekend after all. Yay. :|
We shall watch as the daycare is flooded with babies...
My boxes sure are, I still need to do a lot of Wonder Trading but gosh darn it I'm lazy sometimes and I can't trade at school. :\
I have baby Abras everywhere. Three boxes full of baby Abras!

It's Looker.
... I'm stupid. *flips balls*
I believe that in order to trigger the Looker side story you have to first do a battle in the Battle Maison, battle Calem/Serena, get your Mega Stone upgraded by Sycamore and you should get a Holocaster call somewhere in Luminose. I looked it up since I didn't get the call yet, but I want to wait until I get the right Karrablast before I do more Post Game stuff.

OK I'm ready for Zatanna now!
Take good care of Zatanna! She's a former breeder. She's had some battle experience, but not much.
Thanks! ^_^
Take good care of Togepi as well!
I have another female Synchronize Abra that I may mate with Runaway. Let him have some fun in the daycare after the Sliggoos lubricate the place.
Why must you carbon score these images into my brain?
Ewwww..... :|
Heh, I'm pretty much working on breeding right now. Haha, I needed to breed a specific move into a certain Pokemon because he can learn that move via breeding, plus learn another move via leveling up. Plus, I needed to make sure it was a male because I want to breed both moves into ANOTHER Pokemon that I then plan on raising. One I never really got a chance to raise fully, but have always wanted too! 8D
That's why I'm making a secondary team after this one, I always wanted to raise a Heracross and now I can. And he's more badass.
Yeah he's on my list as well. Ahhhh Heracross. One of the few Pokemon who could stop my Snorlax back in the day! 8D
Breed me a Heracross? :3 Doesn't even need to be a perfect Heracross. I'll adopt imperfect Pokemon.
I wonder what moves Runaway can pass on to any offspring...
Runaway can pass the gleam of dazzle since it's a tm move.
Also quickie, up for trading in 2-3 hrs from now?
Heh, want a Snubble, Quickie? 8D

Alright, I am online. Any specifics? I got Females and males, a variety of natures, and I can name it something.
No preference, the name can be Hercules (or Xena if female), and I have Abras to give. I'll hook one up with a decent moveset.
You get an Abra! You get an Abra! EVERYONE GETS AN ABRA! 8D
Wow, I haven't sees an Abra yet, shoe looks cute just floating. Thanks, Quickie. 8)
They're cute in battle. Just throw out an attack and go back to sleep. I should drop one of the babies into Pokemon-amie and see how cute they are in that.
Online and ready. :3
Yay, an Eldritch abomination! :D
Thank you~
Oh, ahaha... Opened my 3DS and I'm in the middle of a Le Wow run... This was a bad time to want to poke online people.
Little thing, but I like the fact that you can sit on benches and chairs.
Some questions.
- I know shinies are rare, but when do you actually start seeing them? I haven't noticed any yet.
- I got 6 badges so far. I came across an underground place on route 15. When going there, there's a guy blocking an area down there that says I can't pass because of the clothes. Does this have something to do with the # of badges I have, or can you pass if you are wearing the right outfit?
- Are the pokemon in poke-ami that are battling on my screen are just random battles between users pokemon, or are those real battles online? Because when when the users appear offline, they still seem to be fighting, and walking across the top of the area.
Quote from: N-Mario on November 14, 2013, 06:38:01 PM
Some questions.
1. They show up when they want to. It's luck-based and it's within a rounded number of encounters. Just keep at it and you will "someday" find one. It's "slightly" easier to find one by frequently fishing in the same spot, or using the Poke Radar on the grass without dropping the encounter chain.
3. They are not fighting, they are sitting comfortably and talking with each other, while later giving you a gift. Any Friends, Passerby's or Acquaintances you had when you were Online will still be there Offline, and their Pokemon will give you gifts.

If that's the Lost Hotel (between Laverre and Dendemille) then you need to find the 4 Skaters in Lumiose and learn the tricks they teach, then return. That place has nothing to do with clothes, it's to learn the final special trick.
When you say learn the tricks, does that mean teach a pokemon a certain move, or battle the skaters? Or do you mean skating moves you can do as your trainer character?
Skating moves.
So it turns out that Megaman artist Hitoshi Ariga designed quite a few Pokemon...
Quote from: http://hitoshiariga.deviantart.com/art/Pocket-Monsters-XY-413536751Art Director Sugimori gave me the all clear to tell everyone, so I finally get to make a few announcements about work that I have been doing recently.
I had a hand in the new 3DS game "Pocket Monsters XY". Specifically, I designed some new Pokemon! (listed below)
- Pangoro
- Inkay
- Malamar
- Honedge
- Doublade
- Aegislash
- Tyrunt
- Tyrantrum
- Amaura
- Aurorus
I've actually been doing video game work for quite a while now (over two decades), including projects for things like PCE, MD, and SFC. Apparently the Pokemon art director, Sugimori, had taken notice of some of my past work and that's why he asked me if I'd be interested in doing some design work for Pokemon XY.
So in some ways, designing Pokemon for XY was like an extension of my days of drawing monsters for "ActRaiser 2" and "Beyond Oasis". I am a Pokemon Trainer as well as an illustrator, so needless to say I was incredibly honored and pleased to have this opportunity.
I just thought the Pokemon XY players following me might find this information interesting!
Half my main team is Ariga-designed. Awesome.
I most definitely like his designs. Aurorus is one of my faves.
I hate Amaura. I really do.
Still, his are the best designs of this gen. I can't feel that many of the Pokemon in this gen aren't that memorable, design-wise. Half of them are floating puffs of cotton/weird tribal totem pole designs or something.

B-b-but what about Goomey. O^O
Goomy... is Goomy.
Pokemon-amie update: Zygarde really likes having its back frill fin things pet.
Karrablast and Heracross are finally having hate sex again.
Okay, I think I'm confused what to do now. I have obtained my 7th badge, and got the holo message. I think I'm supposed to go after the Team Flare HQ or something. Do I need to go back to Lumiose City somewhere? Or do I need to backtrack through all that snow? Cause I think they're still blocking the next route.
Go to Lysandre's Cafe.
Okay I have question because Bulbapedia wasn't very clear, if I have 2 Karrablast with an Egg Move will the offspring also learn it if they mate?

The game tells you where to go.
There's your answer.
Got my self another Shiny Stone from Super Training for when I get some Togepis.
Hmm so Greninja, Goodra, Togekiss, Heracross, and Chandelure are what I'm considering for a secondary team. I could use another Physical Attacker here, I was considering Liligant but I really think I need a Fire Type proper.

Got a Ralts with the Synchronize Ability, but it's Nature is Jolly.
I got two Dittos with the same nature Hardy but with Imposter and Limber abilities and another Ditto is Bold.
I've already tried breeding it with an Abra, but that, of course, didn't work. Not even hate sex.
I'm considering mating an Abra with a Machop and seeing what happens.
That's because Abra is not in it's Egg Group.

Yeah, I realized that after I tried breeding them. Oh well. Back to breeding and hoping for the best...

If you have a Pokemon with Syncronize that Pokemon will attract Pokemon with the same Nature.
I see, having an Impish Pokemon with the ability Syncronize you will most likely find a Pokemon with the same nature (or is it 100% all the time?)

I believe it's most likely.
I guess the only way is to breed the Impish one with Everstone until you get the other ability
Yeah that's what I had to do with my Shellders.
I see, and since my Ralts has the Syncronize ability 80% of the time the offspring will have it?

Make sure the Impish Ralts is holding an Everstone.
I need to spend more time with one of my Dragonites in Pokemon Amie, so that I can enjoy the whole battle-love thing. Probably Dulcy, since she's my HM slave.

Is Ralts ONLY compatible with Pokemon from the Amorphous Egg Group? If it possible to breed it with other Egg Group, however unlikely?
My Pokemon with Impish Nature:
Nidorino
Electabuzz
Tropius
Impish Nature Pokemon seem quite rare in X and Y.

Yeah, I'd like my trainer character to be able to wear a hoodie without showing some skin, or a coat and still wear pants.
I'm fine if my character doesn't wear pants because I really can't find a good shirt ever.
Ha, that was fun. That akward moment when Ditto decided we should all have the same team fight each other. I seem to notice not a Fire weakness, ut a lack of fighting Fire types other than my Cloyster.

I don't mind a coat without pants, but that trenchcoat dress makes your trainer look like a stripper.
...creepy, I know. But not as creepy as some of the scenarios that go on in that Daycare.
That sucks... finding an Impish Ditto is like finding a needle in a haystack.
And how happy does Togepi need to be to evolve? Also does breeding a Pikachu give you a Pichu or do you need the Light Ball to get still? Or does that just give Pichu something else? I can't remember if it were other Pokemon like Snorlax that needed an item to get their pre-evolved forms unless they changed it in X/Y.
Posted on: November 15, 2013, 03:01:44 AM
Dittos I have caught in the Friend Safari.
Here are their Natures:
Naive
Calm
Lax
Relaxed
Naughty
Careful
Bashful
Serious
Timid
Hardy
Bold
How many more Natures are there? Well I'm racking up a good amount of Dittos here.
There are 25 total Natures, every possible combination of raising and lowering a non-HP stat. Five are "neutral" in that they raise and lower the same stat, effectively making them identical (Hardy, Docile, Serious, Bashful, and Quirky).

I got 11 out of the 25 Natures so far with my Dittos. This is going to take a while.
So about my question regarding Baby Pokemon?
Posted on: November 15, 2013, 03:12:02 AM
Add, Jolly, Gentle, and Mild to the list bringing it to 14 Natures I've gotten with Dittos.
Goodness getting an Impish Ditto seems impossible at this point!
Took Mewtwo through the Battle Chateau again for some old-fashioned grinding. Fought Clemont and Wulfric. I admit, Wulfric is my favorite of the gym leaders in this generation. He's so laid back, battles for the fun of it, and likes to go spend time in the Pokemon Village.

Okay I have question because Bulbapedia wasn't very clear, if I have 2 Karrablast with an Egg Move will the offspring also learn it if they mate?
Hypershell can you answer this, I really don't know.
Quickman you manage to get an Impish Ditto yet?
Okay, I really have to know what's so special about Impish nature.
I don't really follow natures or anything so I don't know.

It's basically the stat that is highlighted Red is raised while the one in Blue is lowered, you can see it in the status.

Do they have the same, or different egg moves? Serebii says that apparently females
might pass along egg moves, but he's still researching it. Besides, I thought the male would always pass it.

I guess I should have made myself clear, my Heracross passed over Mega Horn to his Karrablast offspring. If 2 of the offspring breed will their offspring get Mega Horn.
After breeding and hatching effectively dozens of egg to groom the perfect Pokemon, I can confirm Females will always pass egg moves to its child now much like the male did before. I repeat, ALWAYS.
Yeah, they should do, I guess. Just make sure they don't level the move out in the daycare, though you can reteach egg moves now so it shouldn't be too much trouble to get the move back.
I think I might start a Pinsir before Bank, though not Moxie like I wanted to... In which case, I should have a Heracross to chain Cross Combat with.
Okay, I just got through with Team Flare, and getting the rare pokemon in their lab. Man that seemed like that took forever.
The first time around, I damaged it as usual, and threw an ultra ball at it. It actually worked.... But then things didn't run so smoothly after that. Put it into battle, and got defeated by the boss with it after I defeated 1 or 2 of his pokemon down.
I restarted the game, to see what would happen if things were differently. I damaged it all the way through one time to see what would happen. It's interesting that the game forces you to catch it.
I tried ultra ball again, unsuccessful. Tried pokeball just to amuse me, didn't work of course. My last attempt was damaging it, and threw a Luxery ball at it. Finally caught it again.
Last after fighting the boss again, no sweat until he got to his Gyrados and mega evolved it. Tried using my Pikachu for the super effectiveness, but no go. I ended up using one of my other pokemon, and finally defeated him.
So in another universe that never was, I caught it with an Ultra ball. But now, instead ended up catching it with Luxery ball instead. Go figure. :P
I had a Master Ball, but I'm actually saving that one for later. ;)
Got my fancy trench coat jacket finally.
Now I'll never have any money ever again.
Well, not unless I grind the [tornado fang]ing two-star restaurant a million more times. I can't do the three-star until after I beat the E4 apparently and I bet that'll be [tornado fang]ing fun considering I'm [tornado fang]ing aggravated by the Two-star despite having a 20+ level advantage.
The Battle Chateau is my main moneymaker. I want cash and easy grinding, I go there. Granted, I get trash-talked by everyone, but I like earning nobility titles. I'm a Duchess. :)
And I ended up switching Xavier the Xerneas out of the boss battles. He got to dish out some damage, but he was promptly switched put because the rest of my team performed better. He's been sitting in the box since.
The Battle Chateau gives you more money than the Elite Four and the Three Stars Restaurant?
And got an Adamant Nature Ditto giving me 15 out of the 25 Natures so far for breeding purposes, only 10 more to go. Sheesh getting an Impish Ditto is hard to find.
If the other parent has 6 perfect IVs and my Dittos don't, having like 2 perfect IVs, I can still get a perfect 6 IVs Offspring Pokemon right?

Here's a tip. It appears the game only counts an egg move as erased when you remove them from the daycare. The moment you take them out that move is gone, but the game assumes it still has the egg move when still in love shack limbo. So basically, think of it like wave-particle duality; the egg move will continue to exist as long as you are not checking, but will collapse when you do.

HA. Good luck with that. Destiny knot only picks up five IVs between either parents to give to the child. If I remember the math Smogon punched in correctly...
If both parents have 6 IVs, you have 1/32 chance of getting offspring with all perfect IVs. But considering you only have one and a Ditto with 2 IVs, the likelyhood is even lower.

So is it better to breed two Dittos together to get a Ditto with 6 perfect IVs then with the Nature I have?
It might be better to wait for Pokemon Bank so I can transfer ALL of my perfect 6 IVs Dittos of every Nature... god that one took a lot time to get.
Dittos and their Natures I've collected so far:
Adamant
Naive
Calm
Lax
Relaxed
Naughty
Careful
Bashful
Serious
Timid
Hardy
Bold
Jolly
Gentle
Mild
Quiet
Modest
Brave
18/25 Natures so far... not a single Impish Ditto yet. :P
What are the other 6 Natures left I need to get?

That's pretty much me. All my parties are over Lvl 60 at this point, and Xerneas was at 50. So that was kind of a disadvantage for me. Anything that is lower than my entire party is, I probably just end up leaving in the box. Sad, but true. :(

No, you need to gradually build up your breeding pairs. At the moment (pre-Bank) it's only really suitable to start with Safari Dittos (2V) or existing 4V/5V pokemon (Wonder Trade!) though 3V is possible to start with too if you have Dittos with different max values. If you have a 6V Ditto, you've cut out a bit of work you need to do, but you still need to get your same-species breeding partners up to 4V and eventually 5V for more consistent breeding.
I've been following this guide (http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/696959-pokemon-x/67535721), with the exception of Power Items (haven't bought them yet).
Wait what?! You have a pack of perfect IV Dittos? That doesn't seem possible.
Either way, you'll still have to put up with 1/32 chance of getting a perfect IV offspring.
Post-game is a good time to work on leveling. Mewtwo's been put through his paces. Once he's on par with the rest of the team, I'll start adding in some lower-levels and work on them. Xerneas and Zygarde are on that list of Pokemon who need leveled.

Not in X or Y, in... was it Black and White or Black and White 2? Anyway, yes... you have NO idea how long it took to get each of every Nature of Dittos with perfect 6 IVs, I manage to snag them post-game. It's possible, but VERY time consuming... never doing that again.

That proclamation seems rather suspect. Considering that in my drawer I have the infamous AR.
Also, if there is anything anyone should take away from their experiences with GTS, its that every country has their share of ABSOLUTE MORONS.
^I've also traded to get some of those Dittos as well, just a couple or so, but I manage to get them still.
Got Docile and Quirky on my Nature, bringing me to have 20 out of the 25 Natures in this game. Where in the world is that blasted Impish Ditto?!
I have better luck with Wonder Trade. Managed to get a couple of starters from GTS, but I mainly would put up a random Pokemon and ask for anything. Male, female, any level, Nature, Ability, I'm not picky. I will take your breed fodder.

Doubles I got so far:
Hardy

I just got another Nature, Hasty, for my Ditto leaving me 4 Natures left for the Ditto Breed Fodder.

Speaking of trading, maybe you guys can help me out with this. I'm too lazy to sift through thousands of GTS entries so I'll just see if any of you guys are up for it. Any of you all willing to temporarily trade off my Xerneas for a Yveltal and then allow me to trade it off to my other friend and all the way back for Pokedexes?
I'm also looking for an Umbreon for my stupid Umbreon-obsessed friend to play with in Amie so she'll shut up about it. I don't care about stats or level. Not like I'll use it anyway. I have an extra Ralts to put up, but I can negotiate on that.
I don't have a Yvetal, but I do have extra Eevees. Just got another through Wonder Trade, and a Torchic, too! I need to infect some more Abras with Pokerus and send them off.

Wait, so we temporarily trade our Yveltal and Xerneas and you give the Yveltal to your friend and have that friend it back to you than trade the person'a Yveltal back for your Xerneas... did I get that right?
And I got a Rash Ditto, bringing my total to 22/25 Natures for Ditto. My lord... why can't I find an Impish Ditto. ^_^;
I just caught an Abra by chance if you want it for one of the Eevees. :/ Female Lv. 10 with a timid nature.

Pretty much, yeah. Hell, if I wasn't unsure other people needed it to fill their 'dexes, you could keep Xerneas. I don't have a particular attachment to it.

Like I said, if you want to keep it, that's fine. But I want to make sure none of my other friends who have Y don't need it for their Pokedexes. I also have Mewtwo with Mewtwonite X that I really don't care for as well. But again. Implying my other friends don't need it first.
Really, the only Legendaries I really want to own are Giratina and Suicune. Couldn't care less for any of the others.

Well, it's like I said, I'm looking for an Umbreon or Eevee in particular. However I could also go for an Abomasnow or Gengar just so I have a place to dump those Mega Stones.
I have a Haunter and I can breed them with my Ditto to get Gastly and evolve them into Haunters to trade with you and I do have one Pokemon with the Pokerus courteous of Quickman here.
Abomasnow, I'll have to evolve my Pokemon and start breeding him to make sure I have extras around for myself.

Damn what a story. O^O
That Absol, regardless if it's just game data, is a true testament of friendship and sentimental value and it carries the spirit of his friend. Especially Absol's Mega Form being angelic in appearance... quite poetic actually.
So a random Japanese passerby traded me a Lv. 30 Forrtress for my SPEED BOOST BLAJERKIN Torchic. Not sure what his intentions were. I'll keep him in Acquaintances anyways just in case.

Awwww man. Very touching! :'(
Just a random thought, but am I the only one who loves modern pattern Vivillon? I see more art of meadow pattern vivillon and less art of any other patterns. Maybe because the Meadow one was drawn first, and is the default pattern in the games memory? I kind of see that one as more feminine, due to the colors. Though the red and the blue is a bit more appealing to me. But I guess I'm not surprised, since pokemon originated in Japan, and you get this pattern via JPN area. Makes sense. In any case, I think it's the cutest butterfly I've ever caught in a game. ^_^
Another thing. I like listening to route 15/16/snow mountain pass music. Makes me feel like I want to go on an epic adventure with a strong companion. Just want to fly around the planet looking for a fight. My god, his game has some amazing sound track!
Inverse battles sure are a headache, to reverse all that you know and hold dear.

So that blue pentagon that's next to your Pokemon's markings is an indicator that your Pokemon is not hacked, if it was hacked it wouldn't be there.
It's good to know, especially with the convenience of Wonder Trades and GTS.

That's why it's important to look things up before hand, I always do and that's what we most of the time do when people ask questions.
I just find it odd you can't get Ditto Offsprings... why is that? Makes me wonder where Dittos come from really.
Anyway how do you know if you've collected ALL of the O-Powers from Mr. Bond and how close you are to the next level of your O-Power? Serebii doesn't seem to have a section for it.
EDIT: Nevermind... found it. Wish it were easier to spot them.
Because Ditto is Genderless. It's the same reason you cannot breed any legendaries.

My personal theory is because of it's genderless nature and ability to transform into anything which screws up it's DNA. I also believe in the theory that Dittos are failed results of trying to clone Mew since they weight the same, have the same color scheme as Mew even when shiny, and Mew is the only Pokemon besides Ditto that can Transform, not even a Smeargle can copy Transform with Sketch can do this.
Failed clones of Mew. D'uh.

Even Sketch can't copy Transform? Interesting, I didn't know that.
Also what type of clothing should I wear at the Lost Hotel as I can get by that Punk? Hard to explore the rest of the Place to find a Rotom.
And how do you keep track of how many times you've the O-Powers?
And about the Restaurant like Le Wow, they say it's best to eat their course AFTER said turns... does that mean I have to wait it out or is completing the battles BEFORE net me more Mushrooms? I've noticed I've gotten either 18 or 20 Balm Mushrooms depending on the turns I used which kinda confuses me, especially what they say.
EDIT: Oh... wait AFTER the turns. Sheesh.
That's a huge misconception.
In order to get past the guard in the Lost Hotel you have to learn all the roller skate tricks. There are 4 skates spread through Luminose, talk to all of them and then talk to the punk and he'll let you pass.
Clothes and Lumiose Style have absolutely nothing to do with this.

If that's the Lost Hotel (between Laverre and Dendemille) then you need to find the 4 Skaters in Lumiose and learn the tricks they teach, then return. That place has nothing to do with clothes, it's to learn the final special trick.
owait i did
^Sorry, I don't know which page that was on and sometimes I skim through to catch up with the posts. Sorry for missing that Mirby after you took the time to explain it already.
No worries. That was in reply to N-Mario anyways.
So, I'm in Couriway town, and talked to the professor. He said he had something hidden in that town. Do I need to look outside for it, or is it something inside one of the buildings? Or is he just referring to a special item that the player can find with the drowsing machine thing?
Go to the train station and search around the second bench.
I think I did search up there. Is it that same area where that woman gives you u-turn or whatever it was? Am I suppose to meet the prof. again and give it to him, or does he suppose the player uses it?
Gave my Snorlax the wrong Incense, gave him the Lax Incense instead of the Full Incense, to get Munchlax. Well now I know, but since this is a new generation and you can't trade back your Pokemon they couldn't change up the Breeding system so you'll always get the Pre-Evolved Forms.
I mean they retcon some of the Pokemon's Types like Togepi being a Fairy-Type now instead of a Normal Type so they could've made it so you always got Munchlax when you breed Snorlaxs... unless you can transfer Eggs over on the Pokemon Bank then that might cause some issues and why they keep it like that.
Oh! If they do (I mean, when they get around to) remake Ruby and Sapphire I hope the Hideout Houses come back, I really did like having my own secret place and decorate it and having other players come in to challenge my character and team.
They're called Secret Bases.
Also, you can buy like every Incense in Coumarine Town by the docks. And they only retconned types (which they did back in Gen2 to get more Steel and Dark types). That doesn't mean they'll retcon the method of getting Snorlax when you can buy the Full Incense in game. It's always been like this and there's literally no reason to change it.
I bought every single Incense, but I forgot which one to give my Snorlax.
Quote from: Mirby on November 16, 2013, 12:35:01 AMyou can buy the Full Incense
i kinda named it explicitly for a reason ya know
Quote from: Mirby on November 16, 2013, 12:56:18 AM
i kinda named it explicitly for a reason ya know
I know which one it is, I said that because I was looking at which Incense to give to Snorlax at Serebii the other day and gave him the wrong one by mistake thinking it was Lax instead of Full.
I wasn't saying I forgot after you just said it.

Eevee is like 95% Male 5% female.

I think it's so you can't have an army of Eeveelutions in the early game and to preserve the rareness of those species. Not that I mind since I usually don't breed until post game with the only exception being the Houndoom that Mirb traded me and Smoochum in Soul Silver since Jynx can't naturally learn Psychic but Smoochum can if you delay the evolution about 4 levels.
Actually the starters have always been 87.5% Male, 12.5% Female

But sheesh... that is dumb (5% for a Female Eevee), I can understand if you're searching for them in the wild but when it comes to breeding? Up the percentage a bit, I like to have a female Sylveon.

That's life.
Anyway, Pokemon Origins is up in the US now I guess, well the first part at least (If somebody already mentioned this then disregard.)
I like how they didn't share the voice cast of characters with mainline anime counterparts. And the animation is silky smooth.
Also, [tornado fang] my 3DS, the thing pushed up against something and ejected the game and I lost my Black Trenchcoat.
Eevee is 1/8 Female, 7/8 Male too.

It's what makes those Pokemon special and rare, deal with it.
25% for a female Abra. One chain breeding landed me three females in a row. I have a better chance of breeding females than I do finding them.
Also the markings. I don't understand what they're for. When I earmark Pokemon of trade, I give them a diamond marking, and a star for if they're infected with Pokerus. Since I don't know the proper use, I make up my own meaning.
Yeah I think it's to keep track of things for those who want to do that.

A lot of people, including myself, use them to keep track of Pokemon with max IVs.
Circle is 31 HP IVs.
Triangle is 31 Attack IVs.
Square is 31 Defense IVs.
Heart is 31 Sp. Atk IVs.
Star is 31 Sp. Def IVs.
Diamond is 31 Speed IVs.

I can understand rare since they're special Pokemon, but why should gender also be special in that case? Well it's like Calico cats... males are super rare in real life as well, but... sigh, guess I will continue to breed until I get a Female Eevee (wish there was an item to up the ratio of which gender of the Pokemon you want like with Natures and IVs).
Getting a Female Flareon, Vaporeon, Glaceon, Espeon, and Sylveon is going to take a while.
Gonna tackle the final gym later, my Pokemon team is already at lvl80.
Also, gonna start up the Scatterbug trading again.
My native Scatterbug for your native Scatterbug.

Good grief, Doc. You should destroy them.
I should. Talonflame, Cresnaught and Doublade will have a field day.
Even though I have a Dusk Stone now, I'm hesitant to evolve my Doublade...
Just give me my Dusk Stones... Inver...
Evolve him. DO ITTTT!!
Her. I unofficially named her Aile.
Evolite Doublade is awesome though...
Mine is named Omens! XD
8D
On another note, I'm now the go-to attendent in Hotel Richissime.
Seeing the manager of the hotel was a nice surprise. XD
You'd destroy the eighth gym with just Talonflame. I melted the gym, the town, and burned down the surrounding woods with St. Elmo's fire.
But fire is overrated!
I SHOULD SMASH WITH MY ROCK FIST AND IRON HEAD
FIRE? OVERRATED? FIRE IS AWESOME! IT BURNS THINGS!!
Particularly Mega Evolved flames of death and destruction. I dropped an atomic bomb on the place.
I can see why Ruri said he said a lot of Charizard's in his battles. I don't know about X, but Mega Charizard Y is pretty powerful with its Drought ability.
He gets Tough Claws in his Mega X form, so he's great for physical moves. I have St. Elmo stocked with fire moves, mostly, except for Fly.
Eevee's gender ratio:
♂: 87.5%
♀: 12.5%
At least it's not 5%, but good golly that's still low. Granted I got lucky after my 6th Reset to get a Female Fennekin with the same gender ratio here, but getting a Female Eevee ESPECIALLY 5 of them is going to take a while.

I honestly don't see it taking
that long unless you breed really slow or something. Have a Pokemon with Flame Body in the party and use the hatching O-Power to speed it up.
^Wasn't aware about the O-Power to speed it up, but I have been using Flame Body to hatch them quicker but the first five Eevees were male.
Another random thought.
Every time someone requests a battle while I'm playing, and connected, I'm always nervous about their team, and current levels. I don't want to fight against someone who is a highest level than my team. I don't want to battle with a lowest level team either (pointless cause of over advantage). Is there a way to check on each others pokemon stats before starting the battle? Like see what each of us have, and then decide if I want to battle or not? I want to make sure a fight is fare, and not some random hack job or some thing like that.
Random Battles make all your Pokemon Lv.50, no matter if they're higher or lower.

I challenge you to a Mewtwo X vs. Mewtwo Y battle using only the 4 legendaries we were provided in teh game! I just got to capture Zygarde and Articuno.
I have yet to capture Moltres, so that would kinda be a pain.
...also, I'm still ticked about the bird-chosen-by-your-starter thing, 'cuz I'd have REALLY preferred Zapdos. Even if Gamefreak insists on continuing to be stupid and not teach him any Special Flying moves.
Mega Alakazam and all his spoons versus a horde of Vanillite.
CHOW TIME, BITCHES
Even if they are battles from someone on your FC list? Hmm....... I guess that makes things a little fair. But still I'm a little nervous on the strengths and weaknesses. For instance, I had a lvl 60-65 pokemon vs another trainer in game with a lvl 40-50 stats, and still totally got wiped out in 1 and 2 shots. I thought the higher the level, the better stats. Not the case? Well I'm aware of the super effectiveness in some moves, but still. :P
Also, Pokemon Origins Epsisode 1 in English is out now on Pkemon TV for anyone who care. The last of the following episodes are due out all next week.
It could have been a bad type matchup. Due to my unfamiliarity with one of Teirno's Pokemon, poor Runaway ended up being KOed, only to hang on with ONE HP because he loves me so much. Switched him out pronto.
Keep in mind, Runaway was at least level 80 and I think the opposition was 50-something-ish.

No one wants Moltres. Poor Moltres.
Admittedly, I would've preferred Articuno, buuuut this actually gives me a chance to level up Adm. Lightning. XD
Moltres needs a Mega Evolution which would make him black with blue flames.
Then everyone would want Moltres.

You should draw "Fake Mega Evolution" forms for Pokemon! 8D
I'll start with Moltres. Back in the day, I had drawn a Moltres like that. Just need to add more badass stuff, tweak the look, and slap on the badass color scheme and BAM! Moltres- the propane edition.
I'm already giddy with anticipation. 8)
Zapdos is coming along nicely though.
OK, killed 2 Ace Trainers in the Gym. Their blood tasted chilling good.
Time to slap on Money Lvl3, and kill more trainers.
I still need to finish chasing Zapdos down so I can capture him. Debating on either Blitzwei or Zeus as a name.
Talking to thE woman beside The Pokemon center in Anistar City, she tells you which pokemon has what kind of memory. My response to this.....
SO.... MANY.....FEEEELS....! ;O;
I know! O^O
And the feels when you level up their affection... "Runaway thinks back to the first time it met Trak..." and the effects of maxing out their affection, "Runaway toughed it out to prove its love for Trak!" And then the sucker punch to the feels, "Runaway is in a bit of a pinch. It looks like it might cry."
TAKE ALL MY POTIONS AND FULL RESTORES, RUNAWAY! *Dumps out all the medicine on Runaway*
Hahaha, this reminds me of what a terrible trainer my friend Josh is.
Greg - *sees Pokemon down in the red* "Josh, you are aware you have potions right?"
Josh - "Oh, I know. I haven't used one potion this entire game. They have to learn how to win!"
JOSH IS A MONSTER! *hugs and pets Runaway*
Even though I've dumped a lot of love on Sylveon I just can't really get attached or anything.
... I'm a slave driver too. >.>;
PET YOUR DUOBLADE
PET AILE!?
... I need to find her love spot. >_>
Anyways, respect for Wulfric, because of his belly slap, and knowing that he is a pushover to me at this point.
The body count... The blood...
My cute little Vivillon remembered that one time I was at the pokeball factory. My Pikachu remembered how I caught it, and how I grinded to level it up. Charizard remembered I was in the mirror cave, and saw itself in a mirror, or something like that.
Now ever since I caught Xerneas, half of my party remembers that I've been there.
Just.......Just.........Right in the Feels, Game Freak. ;O;

Wulfric is easily my favorite gym leader. I love battling him in the Battle Chateau. He just battles for fun!
Well, played Amie with Aile.
Unlocked all the difficulties of the games with her, and she is currently 2 hearts worth of affection.
Just wait until she starts showing interest in the other Pokemon's scent. 8D
... Also tried with Gardevoir.
It seems she likes me rubbing her red chest piece, but hates it if I rub her "hair bangs".
... Luckily she's female?
One thing I noticed when sting with your pokemon in Amie. If they're small enough, you can hold down the touch screen, and some of them will try to high five you. Pikachu will try to high five you with its right hand (your left).
Others that fill that area, like flying types or giant pokemon, you can only rub them. I tried getting Vivillon or Butterfree to high five me, but sadly I couldn't. :(
Time to see if Mewtwo will high-five me! Doubt it, but it's worth a try.
Delaying the inevitable again, just upping my style at the moment. Route 21 can wait.
Also need to play more Amie.
Gardevoir and Doublade are at 3 hearts. Talonflame, Cresnaught, Delphox and Greninja are at 1.
Posted on: November 17, 2013, 00:52:16
Oh god.
Runaway is in my Amie, and was talking all excited.
The other 2 Pokemon were shocked at the contents.
Wonder what he was talking about that was so shocking to the other Pokemon... 8D

You know how your player will look at signs and stuff before you read them. Same thing happens when doing that job.
Your head turns when you are near a hidden item.
The best part is that you don't even have to face the item, one the head is turned you can pick it up immediately.
I may do Lost and Found more often now. I usually do Room Service.

A Charizard is having a conversation with 2 Xerneas. Also still leveling up Flammie at Victory Road so she can learn Iron Head.
Hmmmm two people at my job have Pokemon...
..gonna need their Friend Codes for Safair purposes! XD
I still need to collect more friend codes, I want a Fairy and another Electric Friend Safari. With Galvantulas.
So even though I lost my black trenchcoat I was able to get the Blue winter coat thing from Snowbelle instead and I think I like it more. Also got a blue hat to go with it and all looks very good.

It was level 1 so I think you might be right.
You want to know what's worse, after the Acelegor evolved my connection screwed up and the Acelegor seems to be gone.
Yeah my Shelmet is back.
So he's not gone.
Okay we'll try again.
EDIT: Oh and thanks for the Joltik Shelly.
You're welcome. Shellder could actually be useful for egg moves. ~w~
I also have one more Togepi if you still need one.
Oh yes of course, anything in particular you want?
Any Adamant nature flying egg-group Pokemon would be very helpful. Otherwise, not much comes to mind.

When I go into a air/sky battle with one of those trainers, with Vivillon in my Poke-Amie, Poke-Amie switches Vivillon to the pokemon that I used in my first round against them. Is this intentional?

If that's your first or only flying Pokemon in your party, that's the one you'll use in battle. I always use St. Elmo, and sometimes he's not in Amie.

Yeah, I'm sporting that blue coat, too. Blue tights underneath, black boots, blue hat, it's a great ensemble for cheaper than that black trench coat.
So..... I'm nearing toward the end of the game. I have all 8 badges, and on to victory road. It's sort of annoying even with high levels, trainers keep beating the hell out of the single pokemon in my team. Trying to save all the potions and everything just in case, going back to the pokemon center. Then finally got to the point where I battled my rival, and the person next to the stone area where we fought makes a trip easier on healing my team.
I feel like it's still a long way to go. There's so much that I have yet to see. Like that one mining cave area I passed before the 7th badge or something I can't remember. I think I recall there being a rare pokemon in there, but I'm unsure. And I have feeling I'm going to have to battle my rival again with her having 6 pokemon instead of 5, like I just did moments ago.
Also, is it just me, or does framerate drop when you turn 3D on for single battles, and when it gets to the 1 vs 5 battles?
Terminus Cave? Oh yeah, there's a Legendary hiding out in there. Also, don't forget that cave in the Pokemon Village. There's a Legendary hiding in there, too.
What level is your team at? If you want an easier time, put off beating the game and go grind at the Battle Chateau. I ground between each gym, so my team was ten-twenty levels ahead. If you lack a type advantage, sheer brute force works pretty well.
Great luck on GTS today. I stalked the legendary 'mans until somebody requested a high-level normal Pokemon that I could supply. Got Yveltal for a Bannette, and Xerneas for one of my Dragonites.
...by far, Articuno seems to be the most popularly requested bird. Wonder why that is.

Take care of her. She was part of my later breeding runs, so her IVs are pretty badass.
Heh, I have no idea if you'll have any use for a Snubble with Close Combat, but enjoy!
Yea I found that cave, but I can't access it until I beat the game. There's a guy blocking it.
My team is like 70-75 something. So it's at least 10-15 levels ahead of everyone else.
My team consists of Fire type, Water Type, Flying type, Psychic type, Electric type, bug type. I was never fond of Fighting type or ghost type.
I was going to try to catch an Evee at one point during traveling and see if I could raise it until a Sylveon, but that never happened. :P
In the forest before the Pokemon Village, caught a JigglyPuff, and traded it with a trainer in the snow/ice village town.
I forgot about that guy! Time to go do that...
My team for the Elite Four was Fire/Psychic, Fire, Fighting/Steel, Bug/Poison, Psychic, and Normal/Flying. I TOOK A FARFETCH'D TO THE HALL OF FAME.
And this isn't game related, but it's Pokemon-related, so I'll stick it here.
The other day, I went to make my bed and I found my Mewtwo plushie hiding under the covers with a Sinestro Corps ring.
I'm not sure if I want to know why.
Wait, try that again, Ruri.
I pressed "no" when it said "don't use Game Chat" or whatever. Not even sure what that is.

Anyway I'm currently looking for a Hidden Ability Spiritzee. If you have one or would be able to get one I would greatly appreciate it and I'll be sure to get you anything you want in return.
Time to jump back to the game... OFF FOR MORE STYLING
I think I also need a Hidden Ability Piloswine and have a Friend Safari with that, all I need to do is breed it with a Beartic. I also got a Gooey and Sap Sipper Sligoo through Wonder Trade so that's nice. I'm considering replacing replacing the Chandelure with Galvantula since Hypershell gave me that Joltik, but overall I should be able to build my secondary team faster than the first.

Just of curiosity, if you battle online, does it still effect the affection status of your party? Or does nothing change during online battles? I read if you lose some battles it sometimes, or usually drops the affection status. I wasn't sure if that was still true for online battles.
We should do a multi-battle! ...if we can find a 4th person.
I'd be down for that.

How many Pokemon do you need for that again?
I guess I would, too. Even if that means being slaughtered after a few turns. 8D
Quote from: Ruri on November 17, 2013, 07:45:51 AM
3.
Yeah I think I would be down with that, let me spend some BP to get something and I'll be ready.
I am down for that too. Who is going to be with who?
EDIT: PB, I was freaking out there for a bit. I had the embarrassment of underestimating you and it ended up with a close battle.
LoL, that was close?
Ah I also need to see the Move Deleter and Relearner!
I don't consider it a total win unless 3 or more of my Pokemon survive. Call me old-fashioned, but I'd really hate it if my Pokemon faint, even if its for the battle. Bonds with any and all my Pokemon I train with, I guess.
Okay I'm all set.
PHI ANY SPARE SCATTERBUGS!?

If anything, it shows me that I have little to no chance against EV/IV trainers! The fact that your Heracross was faster than my Charizard pretty much said it all! XD

I haven't noticed anything, and I lost the online battle I participated in. Granted, I spoiled my team with Puffs and pets afterward.

I hate seeing my Pokemon faint. It makes me sad and it makes them sad.
Yeah screw you guys, real nice
[tornado fang]ing INTERNET! O:<
Well, that played out differently in my head...
Damn net.
Oh and sorry I didn't accept the invite. An egg was hatching.
But at least I know Choice Scarf Florges is amazing.
Alright, so we are going to try again? I figured me and Ruri shouldn't be on the same teams since we are more competitive. Unless you guys are okay with it?
BTW, I am not going to underestimate Sakura. That Florges is scary and I am thankful she was on my team.
I might switch up my Lead to make things interesting.
Well, I am ready when you guys are. I'll switch my lead too; like Sakura. Until then, I am guessing we are going to put that battle on hold?
I can go again.
Yeah I just hope this works, my normal Lead is usually Mienshao but she doesn't have the right ability. And this Pokemon requires setup.
I'm good to go.
I'm ready anytime.
I'm thinking of raising one of my Synchronize Abras. I think I'll go deposit an HM slave and pull out one of my former breeding slaves...
Damn it Ruri. Your ability to make sure I am dead is amazing. Go Sakura!
Yeah I'm screwed.
OH GOD ABRA IN AMIE! SOOOO CUTE! 0v0
.....good work, team....
-_-
Okay I'm never using Cloyster as a Lead, not that I was planning to in the first place.
I guess that concludes our first Multi-Battle! That was fun. I am up for one more if you guys are open to it.

It's fine, though maybe 2 Shell Smashes would have been better.
I could do one more if you wanted.
I'd be down for that.
Ugh, I feel horrible for whoever decides to be with me. All that is left is for Ruri to suffer the same fate, ahaha. I guess I am up for one more since it isn't as late as I thought it would be.
Sorry PB!
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!!!! 8D
THAT MEGA LUCARIO SCARED ME, SORRY I EARTHQUAKED YOU RURI! :o
Hahahaha, hey I was Petal Blizzard'in Akamaru! His Charizard can take it! XD

As I Cloyster user myself, its not that it shouldn't be in a 3 man team, but shouldn't be in a Doubles or Triples battles. Even with my tricks using him, its hard in those types of battles.
Lol.
Well, my breeder Abra evolved, so I brought out a newborn for more cute Abra playtime.
Back to the restaurant for leveling up.
If you haven't played with an Abra in Amie, you must! It's so cute! Their ears twitch when you pet them and they look so happy to be cuddled and rubbed.
Just don't touch their feet, they don't like that.
I have not be able to find Aile's (Doublade) angry spot.
I know Gardevoir is her hair bangs, Talonflame is her feet, Cresnaught is his back spikes, Delphox is his ears (he likes ear puff rubs though) and Greninja is his scarf.
My Delphox loves his ears rubbed. Haven't yet found his angry spot.

It's the ears. He glared at me. The red puffs are fine, but the yellow at the back... Hell no.
For mine, it's the shoulders. Flamin' Yawn loves his ears rubbed, he's all XD about it.
And the hell, Runaway. Love having the right (your left) spoon polished, but glare if I touch the left (right).
Aile loves me forever now.
My life is complete... Except I have not evolved her yet. >_>
No need to
Hm, since happy and angry spots seem to vary, even for the same species, I wonder if I have an Abra that likes foot tickles...
Huh. I guess this just furthers the point that Pokemon are all individuals, even within the same species.
Working on Talonflame now, 2 hearts at the moment.
Runaway likes belly rubs, but there isn't much belly to rub, so it ends up being crotch rubs.
No wonder he loves me so much. 8D

Would you like to give Runaway a belly rub? 8D
My whole team is now totally loyal to me now.
... Although the way I convinced Greninja... Is sort of similar to Runaway. >_>
Lack of belly to rub? XD
It's small, and the rubbing soon landed to a... Piece. Yea. >_>
Whatever works to win their love! 8D
Man, I'm bummed that I missed out on the Multi Battle goodness. Sounds like fun.
...how the heck do we have four Rock safaris and nobody with Onix? -AC I was really hoping to raise a Sheer Force Steelix. Back to Serebii, I guess.
Good news, my Dragonite absolutely demolished the poor passer-by who challenged me today. OHKOed his entire team save Poliwrath (who Xiaomu was happy to finish off) without even boosting.
Okay..... Currently at Elite four.... Oh....My....GOD. So... NERVOUS... >_<
I beat the steel warrior though, had some trouble.
I can't back out, I forgot to check my item inventory, I may be getting low on HP recovery items, and most attacks they do seem to be super effective.... Even at 10 level above them...... i tried the water area. Tried using Pikachu here, but its HP and defenses are so weak, even though it's the same level as everyone else on my team. ungh. >_<
Like I said. Things like this just get me. So. Nervous about battling them. Not having enough in inventory and everything if I can't back out.
I forget who I used at the Flood Chamber. I think it was either Lucario or Farfetch'd. My Farfetch'd did a lot of work.
Getting used to Escavalier's battle style is going smoothly.
So, I'm raising a new HM slave. It's the Bisharp you get in Snowbelle for a Jigglypuff. I traded a Jigglypuff named Cher for it. Then, I saw the Bisharp's name and about pissed myself laughing.
The Bisharp shares the same name as my brother.
I only have a pikachu. Not even a leaf type. I kind of regret saving inside the elite four castle. -_-
Guess I'll just have to win it some other way, if he keeps getting OHKO'd by stronger water pokemon..... with a weaker level stats. -AC
Don't you have a Thunderstone?

This.
Its not like you lose that much money.
I didn't have a Grass type, either. I went in with Fire/Psychic, Fire/Flying, Fighting/Steel, Normal/Flying, Psychic, and Bug/Poison. None of my teammates had a Grass-type move, either. The Elite Four wasn't a problem for me.

..... Maybe on a low level female I caught and didn't take with me far into the gamne.. But I won't on the one I've kept in my party.
Does Lucario learn anything like a Thunder Punch, or something effective on water types?....... Uhh..... Well too late anyway since I'm stuck inside Elite Four anyway. Even if I lose, I still continue at elite four from my last save, as far as I know....
No you get booted out of there to the last Pokemon Center and lose a little bit of money.
And you can breed more Pikachus.
I think I may have used Lucario and Alakazam in the Flood Chamber. Who all do you have on your team and what are their movesets?
Quote from: N-Mario on November 18, 2013, 05:31:00 AM

Its just a [tornado fang]ing pikachu its not like its a goddamn golden goose.
Booted out? I thought if you black out meant instant game over. and the game loads the last save you did in the game. If I get booted out does that mean if I beat 1 or 2 of the elite 4, then get KO'd, I have to beat them all over again? I only remember doing the elite 4 like 1 or 2 times growing up as a kid with one of the earlier GB/GBC games. I think back then, it was like you could only save outside of the elite 4. Once you entered, you couldn't save any more or some crazy thing like that. My memory isn't what it used to be. -AC
You do have to fight them again, but it gives you a chance to grind and buy more items.

Nope, you could save in the Elite four.
What other types are on your team? You have more than that Pikachu, right? Or are you Nuzlocking this?
Good [tornado fang]ing lord I hate Glittering cave now.
I just want an old amber so I can get a [tornado fang]ing aerodactyl and the game is spitting [tornado fang]ing Dwebbles and Hard Stones at me like they're going out of style.
And I missed getting Solrock the first time through and now all I can seem to find are Cubones.
The encounter animations are really starting to wear on me now. I don't need or want to see two different [tornado fang]ing effects for each time I encounter a pokemon, the first one is PLENTY.
Having to see the Pokemon cut-in for each time I use a move on the field is [tornado fang]ing aggravating too. I want an option to turn that off, but hell at least they stopped doing a cut-in followed by "Pokemon used Rock Smash!".
Just Greninja, Charizard, Butterfree, Vivillon, Pikachu, and Pidgeot. Though I've seen some water types against water types actually gaining HP back when hit by water attacks, but I don't think the Elite 4 ever does that, and use another move instead. I think I just remember seeing it happen in outside battles.

Ugh the way they designed encounters in Glittering cave is atrocious, I get that they wanted to make it less aggravating and not have encounters every 5 seconds but only having pokemon encounterable in the corridor bit and not in the area where Team Flare was, and on top of that making them only appear in predetermined spots that only replenish when you leave the room, and on top of that have one or two pokemon with really high encounter rates (Cubone and Machop) and multiple others with really low encounter rates (Solrock and Lunatone, Kangaskhan and Mawile) is a surefire way to pad for time.
I'm lucky to have gotten Kangaskhan on my first run through the place but at the rate they keep using all the spots to spit Cubones at me I'll never [tornado fang]ing get a Mawile. Found a Lunatone but it's being a complete dick to catch and I don't have a False Swipe pokemon on hand.

You know now that you mention it, Ho-Oh would have been way more awesome if it was a part Dragon type.
Pikachu has mostly electric moves, and some sort of body slam move.
Butterfree and Vivillon both have a bug move, flying move, and a psychic move.
Vivillon has one fairy move, draining kiss or something.
Pidgeot, mostly flying moves.
GreNinja has a dark move, two water moves, and a psychic move.
Charizard, two fire moves, cut and strength.
It's not the best though.
On side note, has anyone tested to see if poke-amie has a voice recognition system? I read some info somewhere that it's compatible with the mic that if you said something (probably only like, two or three words), your pokemon would react or something.
I know pokemon react if I start talking but I don't think it actually recognizes words.
Ugh finally caught that [tornado fang]ing lunatone.
GOT THE OLD AMBER FINALLY.

Since your Pikachu is too weak, you may want to stick to moves that do at least normal damage. Throw out a hit sponge and have them peck away at the Pokemon. I spammed Aura Sphere quite often, so why not dump one of your Bug/Flying Pokemon into the box and pull out your Lucario?

I've messed with it a bit. Not much, though. However, when I was sick, my Pokemon would respond when I'd cough.
[tornado fang]ing finally, I'm never going back to [tornado fang]ing glittering Hard Stone and Dwebble cave.
If I want those other fossil pokemon I'll just trade for them. I'm not dealing with this annoying bullshit just to get fossils for pokemon I'll only use for collection purposes.

Odd question, why haven't you evolved your pikachu yet?
That's what we're all asking.
Come to think of it, I should evolve one of mine. They've been breeding slaves, mainly.
Well, if you're breeding them it hardly matters. I just don't understand why he still has a Pikachu. I mean, did he watch the Pokemon anime religiously when he was younger?

He said he didn't want to be out a Pikachu.
But yeah I agree its not a good reason. Because Pikachu isn't very good and its not like its Pokemon Yellow.
Anyway, I'm not gonna be doing this normally but I figured if I want all the eevees I'm gonna breed some instead of wasting my time catching a lot of them.
The male ones that I get will be Flareon, Jolteon and Umbreon, Vaporeon and Glaceon get to be girls so Sylveon isn't the only female eeveelution I have.

I breed mine and get them through Wonder Trade.
So I decided to start breeding high stat, hidden ability Eevees last night. I spent all of last night hatching eggs in order to get a female with the hidden ability, but it was only 2V.
I should have realised sooner that this would take a lot of time and effort (and sanity) to do.
Ohohoho. You have no idea!
I'm currently fishing for shinies.
"Ahahahaha! I am so going to hell. In fact, there should be one made specifically for me."
I swear. I am going to drive myself to new levels of crazy. The more I try o win in Random battles, the more I lose. The anger levels are totally not safe for me. Doesn't help that sometimes, a freakin' player used Mewtwo, Zygarde, and their version Pokemons sometimes.
Call me whatever you wish, but this why I'm not evolving the male one in my party.
- Pikachu is main cast of the original pokemon, as well as the mascot of the franchsie.
- Pikachu is the only pokemon with an actual voice in this game.
- Pikachu has never canonically evolved into a Raichu by a main character, and I want to stick to that.
- He was considered rare in some newer regions of the pokemon world.
- I actually never favored Raichu that much as I do Pikachu.
Is that enough, or do I need more reasons?
Though I could evolve the female one I caught, but it's too weak, and in the box somewhere. I'd have to do 24 hour training on the female one in order to get it with the same level as my party.
Also, I don't have a reset bag in super training, or can't remember how to get one. If I used one, does it reset the s.training stats back to 0, or only certain things?
I can see if Xerneas could help if I did have too much trouble, but I donno.

Reset bags are earned randomly by just idling on the screen where you see your pokemon punching a bag or by a rare earn from Training. If used, it resets ALL stats to zero, not just a certain stat.

And so is Raichu, moot point.

, as well as the mascot of the franchise.
You say this as if it has any meaning in gameplay. Jack Frost is the Mascot of Atlus but that doesn't make him a very valuable persona/demon in the SMT series. Slime is the Mascot for Dragon Quest but that doesn't mean it serves as much more than an enemy class.

- Pikachu has never canonically evolved into a Raichu by a main character, and I want to stick to that.
And? The Anime has no bearing on the games save for Yellow.
Also, since you seem to think the anime is this great [tornado fang]ing thing you need to stick to, Lt. Surge evolved his Pikachu into Raichu, maybe not onscreen but he [tornado fang]ing did it so this one is invalid.

No, keep going, this is hilarious.
I want a shiny. Of anything.
Ugh, Clefant, really...?
On a side note I realized a vital piece of information regarding my Pokemon:
"EVs are calculated at +1 Stat point per 4 EVs at level 100, which means you won't see the full benefit of the EVs you put into your Pokémon until it reaches that level; there will still be a benefit, just not as significant as when it reaches the maximum level."
This means that even if you have fully EV trained your 'mon, the full benefit isn't seen until they are 100. Even during battles where the stats are brought down to level 50, I am assuming.

is a reason why five or so people complain about my nitpicking.
Like Sakura said, his reasons are superficial at best. If he's got such an adversity to evolving his Pikachu so it stands a better chance in battle he should just switch it out for something more capable of taking down the elite four instead.

There is a reason why five or so people complain about my nitpicking.
I see. Alright then. I don't gain anything from saying something.
As far as I know, Pikachu is a the very definition of Glass Cannon and is usually only good with a Light Ball, which has been banned in most Tournaments, I think.

Tournaments seem to ban anything that they deem unfair. This of course goes for more than just pokemon.

But the only thing that Pikachu gains is higher Physical and Special Attack and maybe Volt Tackle which really hurts it since Pikachu is again a Glass Cannon. It it raised Speed too maybe but Pikachu can still be knocked out in one hit especially by something like a Weavile which it much faster than him or even Raichu when bother have Speed Raising Natures.
Yep. While at most a Pikachu has around 230 Attack or Special attack maxed, with a the light ball, it doubles to about 460 Att. Try eating that when he does a Volt Tackle with STAB 180 and Accuracy 100. Just Baton pass some Speed and you got a monster.
Most strategies against it is Priority moves or something with resistance like Ferrathorn.
EDIT: Ahaha, beaten to the punch by Sakura.
I still don't see that as a big deal, I mean it's not a Slaking or a Power Trick Shuckle, raised Attack stauses don't do much to make Light Ball Pikachu ban worthy since again you can knock it out with one hit.
I guess not. The thing is as long as you don't use Pikachu as your main attacker, its should be fine. There are many, many better options like Jolteon, Ampharos with Mega Evolution, or Galvantula even.
Galventula is my only Electric Attacker, especially now that it has Sticky Web.
FTR, I don't consider gym leaders as main characters per se. When I say that, I mean characters like Red, Green/Blue. Or whoever is seen for more than 10 episodes worth. Yes, gym leaders are important, but you only see them once or twice, or on special occasions like Brock. But you should have known what I was talking about when I said main.
Besides size and design difference, whats the point of evolving a pikachu? New moves I guess? I'd imagine by this point it's defense and hp won't change much even if I did.
I seem to recall one game where one of my pikachus seemed to have had a decent defense. Did they change that, or does it depend on the stats? I read that even if you caught 1 kind of pokemon, catching the same kind & same gender, but could differ on stats and personality trait.

All of his stats get upped, including most importantly his speed and both attack stats and since you kept your Pikachu for that long he's learned all the moves he needs to learn anyway.

You use game names like Red yet you refer to the anime where no such character exists.
Ash is not the same as red.
Again, if you're so against evolving your pikachu, Fine, use a different [tornado fang]ing pokemon then because keeping Pikachu around just because its the mascot is a terrible reason and you're hurting the strength of your team because of it.
I got my Lucario to give me a high-five in Amie. It is also very difficult to pet a Bisharp without getting cut. Also caught Runaway sleeping. Tried to get Mewtwo to give me a high-five, but he just stared at me.
So... I checked the stone guy, and he wants to sell the Blastoisinite at $50,000.
... And I found Mr. Pedo Bonding in Cafe Introvesion. Oh well, got the last O-Power.
"Ahhh! If you want a Pokemon you can stroke and caress, it's gotta be an evolved Pokemon! I just can't get enough of the cool, mature attitude of an evolved Pokemon!"
What's worse is it's a little girl who says this.
She and Mr. Bonding should hook up.
Got the Blastoisinite dealer down to $70,000, which is affordable, but I want cheaper. Took a cab ride, tipped a Furfrou $500, and rode the Gogoat shuttle. If you haven't rode a Gogoat through the streets, you totally should!
I'll still try to get it down to $10,000, even though I technically have max style.
So... After almost a month (!?), I'm finally inside the Pokemon Center at the Pokemon League.
Team is all ready.
[spoiler]
Cresnaught lvl86 - Seed Bomb, Rock Smash, Spiky Shield, Strength
Delphox lvl86 - Cut, Psyshock, Mystical Fire, Psychic
Greninja lvl86 - Waterfall, Night Slash, Water Shuriken, Surf
Gardevoir lvl87 - Magical Leaf, Dream Eater, Hypnosis, Moonblast
Talonflame lvl85 - Brave Bird, Flare Blitz, Fly, Steel Wing
Doublade lvl86 - Shadow Sneak, Iron Head, Sacred Sword, False Swipe[/spoiler]
... I'm so going to sweep them. But not today. I have Old Ambers to mine first!
Heh, good to know that I wasn't the only one who was hideously over-leveled. XD
I seriously blame the generous EXP sharing, especially when capturing Pokemon. >_>
Usually, I tend to be at least 5 levels above the strongest Pokemon of the Champion.
... Which in this case... I have way overshot. >_>
Yeah, I usually try to be around ten levels ahead. It was waaaaaaay too easy to level in this game! XD
Is EXP sharing a new addition to this game?
Indeed.
At least the money's fine too.

I was around the 5 level mark, but I don't really mind too much since it saves a lot of time. Though my starter Pokemon was probably one of the leashed used because I had to work on Dragagle, Houndoom and sometimes Aerodactyl. Florges was my most over leveled at about lv 75. But again it saves on grinding and I don't have to worry about my weaker mon getting KOed in one hit close to evolution simply because their base form is not strong enough against the wild Pokemon in the area, I had that problem with Vulpix in Soul Silver, Mienfoo in White, and maybe Growlithe in White 2. I don't remember if it was the same with Pikachu in Leaf Green but it might have been.

Technically it's been in all games though the Exp All in Red Blue and Yellow was quite terrible because of how little Exp your other Pokemon get after the split. In the games after it was a hold item where the Pokemon battling gets full while the one holding it gets about half, it's about the same as when you switch one Pokemon out with another, and that was probably the only way to level a Magikarp or Metapod or something without using the Exp. share.
In this game they pretty much combined the concept of the Exp. All with the potency of the Exp. Share for the ready of your team.
Also, I need to get this out.

Wait in Inverse battling gives you Dusk Stones? Also remember that Team Flare grunt in Laverre town that's just walking around? After you beat the game he'll give you a Dusk Stone as repentance of Team Flare's Actions. Of course that doesn't help with now.
Also there's a level in the Secret Super Training levels that give you a Dusk Stone once you're Pokemon's Effort Values are max.

Yeah it really helps if you decide to rotate Pokemon frequently. Would have helped in Gen 5 since I didn't like the Starters in that game.

If you do not have any fainted Pokemon, Inver will give 3 of one something.
I'll need to battle Inver again. With Bulbapedia at the ready so I can actually stand a chance.
You know what really bothers me, there's only one Metal Coat in the game and you can't get more. I mean granted I don't use Scizor and I can get the in game Steelix but it really bothers me, they don't even have it as a Battle Miason prize when you can get extra Sachets, Whipped Dreams and Reaper Cloths.
That's why you need to hunt for Magneton, 5% chance of holding Metal Coat. Metang and Bronzong works too, but they are Safaris.
Get a lead with Compoundeyes to increase the chance of hold items, then Thief/Covet/Switcheroo/Trick.

Oh okay that works, especially since Hypershell just gave me a Joltik with Compound Eyes.
Quick, to the Lost Hotel!
If the Compoundeyes mechanic is the same as it was in Gen5...
Then Magnetons have a 20% chance of holding Metal Coat.
As a guide... 50% becomes 60%, 5% becomes 20% and 1% becomes 5%. I spammed this in B2W2 to get rare hold items. >_>
Also, it works even if the lead Compoundeyes has fainted.

Oh, to put Puffs back, just move them back to the Puffs button and they go right back in your inventory. This way you don't end up wasting them if your Pokemon isn't interested.

Fed my team, they're full and happy. Runaway is practically bloated with Puffs. Pavorotti loves high-fives. Still trying to get Mewtwo to high-five, but he won't. Tried scratching his ears, but death glare. Yeah, he really doesn't want anyone touching his head. Everything else is fine, even his tail! But woe betide anyone who tries to scratch behind his ears. He only tolerates it in battle.

Also, is there any reason why they get stuck back to the walls when you go roller skating, or bike riding? I never understood that, considering when they walk up to a wall, they just turn and walk the other way. But if you're using something else, they just roll around.

When you use Surf, they bob up and down in place.
Some Pokemon don't like being spun around and flattened against the wall while you're biking. They'll start jumping up and down. I was riding the bike back and forth while hatching eggs, and Mewtwo started jumping up and down, and when I clicked the little sprite, he gave me a hell of a murderous death glare.
MEWTWO ANGRY
It took a bunch of Puffs, pets, and playtime before he was happy. After that, when I do the egg-hatching bike runs, I make sure he's not out in Amie.

I guess I need more Amie time... PLUSHIEEEEEEEEE
Yeah, I got the chairs and table before the plushie.
The chairs seemed to be given when max affection is reached. At least it was for me. I got the tables as gifts.
Beds, too. Three chairs for three of my Pokemon, then four other things, and somewhere the plushie came in. Might've been a gift for all I know, but I think it came from max affection. Either Mewtwo or Ariados. Catch your Mewtwo and pamper him like crazy and see what happens. :P

After Runaway, my Cresnaught and Talonflame are interested in my bag... And we keep breathing in sync. At least they are not interested in my scent... Yet.
I got that when Runaway was at three hearts.
Oh, did you ever get that orange flower Flabebe? I caught one or two.
Aye, I did. She was a pain... I kept seeing white ones. And the both of them are considered equally rare...
SO WHY THE HELL WHITE KEPT APPEARING

The art style seemed to change slight so Ash's eyes are as super big as they were in Best Wishes and the voice acting for the new human characters are actually pretty decent.

Not happy about needing to do Battle Maison, not just for Razor Claw and Razor Fang but for Electirizer and Magmarizer as well. It'll be a slow grind. Thank god I don't have a Porygon yet. I'll probably just wait till Pokemon Bank and import those guys over. Otherwise, only other Pokemon I can get in the game itself at the moment is Blissey.
Got all three Kanto starters now. :D

That's a big Pokemon Center in Tokyo Bay.
...
ALL THOSE PIKACHU PLUSHIESSSSSSSSSS
All those shipping costs to import those plushies...
Urge to hit up Amazon... rising...
Indeed.
Hey Quickie, up for trading?
Give me a couple minutes to power up.
QuickEdit: Ready when you are.
Sorry about that, was distracted on Youtube.
And thanks~
I should go get those last couple O-powers. I've been avoiding hotels like the plague. I'll take Mewtwo with me, let him meet Mr. Bonding. Then hit the showers to wash off the filth.
Managed to lvl3 Hatching Power in half a day.
Now I have all dem Os in the lvl3s.
... So much bonding.
Spend bonding time in Amie with your team. 8D
I don't mind with Gardevoir. 8D
... Greninja not so much. -_-
An orgy of Pokemon bonding! 8D
We should invite Mirby and her Pangoro to join in! 8D
PARTING SHOT BABY 8D
I'm good on that. *flees*
Is there something specific I'm supposed to do in Kiloude City, or somewhere else before the Looker agency? I can't find the agency in Lumiose City, and I haven't gotten a holo message about it yet. I figure I may be missing something. But I'm unsure what it is.

I think what you have to do is do a Battle in the Battle Maison, fight your rival, and then get the Mega Ring upgraded by Sycamore before you can do the Looker Quest. I haven't gotten the call either and I haven't done the last 2 so that might be it.
If I recall, it's the last two. Pretty much after I did that and went to Lumiose, I got the message from Looker.
Have you started bonding with your Legendaries, yet?
Yeah but you have to do the Battle Maison before you can fight your rival, as guide dang it as it sounds.
Oh I thought the battle mason was optional. It has got the same options as that one battle area in Lumiose City.
Go to the Maison and fight one battle, then leave. Go find your rival up at the lake and battle him. Then go to Anistar and meet with Sycamore at the sundial and have your Mega Ring upgraded. Then go to Lumiose and you should get the message from Looker.

It technically is but you have to do at least one battle to tigger your rival showing up according to PB.
Oh just one battle? I've been doing like 5 battles. So I can interrupt it then. That's good. :)
Yeah that's the cool thing about the Battle Maison. Unlike previous things like it (Battle Frontier/Tower/etc), you can stop at any time and pick up from there, provided you haven't lost yet.
I did one battle when I beat the game and haven't returned since. >0<
BTW, Does Prof. Sycamore say something different when you meet him in Anistar City for the upgrade, if you're actually there at 8:00 PM when it's lit up? Or is it basically the same speech?
The third Pokemon in N-Mario's safari is Ditto, so he has the same layout as Mirby.
Got my Espeon and Blissey. Oddly I have a crown next to my Coastal Dex even though I haven't seen Moltres yet. Guess the birds don't count. Wonder if Xerneas will be the same way? Any, my total is 524.
For whatever reason, I think from what i read, it depends on the FC's # that depend on the pokemon you can encounter. I don't think we can do anything about that, can we?

No idea. 8 pm game time is 7 am my time. I'm usually either asleep or just got in bed, or just plain doing something else. I haven't yet seen the sundial lit up.

Why is your 3DS game clock so erroneously set?
Most likely my fault and I haven't reset it to account for DST. Resetting the clock isn't a very high priority for me at the moment, so I just set aside a morning to go hunt for Mega Stones.
Managed to snag a Vulpix in Wonder Trade.
Also got a Lickitung, and since I haven't seen him in my game yet I'll hang onto him till I evolve him to Licklicky.
Caught a Honedge.
Named it "Caliburn". I seriously couldn't resist.
My Honedge is named Excalibur. Got a female a while back and named her Avalon.
Currently, I'm just leveling my team, rotating Pokemon around to level some mid-levels, and I'll need to start raising more HM slaves. Someone else is learning Fly, but I'm not sure yet who. Well, I have that Fearow named Ebon Hawk...

Respect +100
Still holding off the E4 until I get one more Old Amber. And since I always play past 8pm in-game, I'll quote Prof. Sycamore in this thread.
Ebon Hawk just learned Fly, so he'll be my new source of transportation while he levels. St. Elmo went in the box for now. I have Runaway as maximum level backup, Flamin' Yawn who needs to finish leveling, Mewtwo is about four levels away, and now some mid-levels in Anne Bonney, Pierce, and Ebon Hawk.
I'll need to some day pull out TrouserSnake and level her some more. She's my other rock smasher.
And just finish the Looker Agency side quests........... Was interesting, though all of the events are of the same person to say. Sad to see him leave the area though. :(
Can someone confirm if Zygarde is the hardest pokemon to catch? Last I tried, I kept wasting balls, it escaped even after lowering its HP more than enough times, used different kinds of pokeballs. Finally just gave up and use escape rope.
What about the other legendaries in this game before Gen VI? Or I guess just one of the birds that I'm supposed to corner. Are they all the same difficulty, or are some easier to catch with ultra balls, or other high performance balls?
You should know by now that all legendaries save for like Reshiram and Zekrom (And probably also Xerneas and Yyvetal if people claiming the game requiring you to capture them is to be believed). Have the same capture ratio.

http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/List_of_Pokemon_by_catch_rate
Z should be a rate of 3 on par with Mewtwo.
Also get acquainted with specialty balls like Dusk and Timer.
The two legendaries you meet in the main story you're required to capture. So of course they should have (if they actually do not) a easier catch ratio. Otherwise you'd be stuck in a loop, or have to backtrack and buy some pokeballs somewhere before proceeding.
But for the ones that are not main story, I figure they would be harder. Esp. one like Zygarde. Though I only had one master ball and I already used it. I don't think they sell more master balls anywhere........Do they? I think I've checked every store.
There are. Strike the lottery. It's the first prize.
Z is in a cave. Dusk. Balls.

I don't need to be nice. A 2 year old kid I can understand why they are asking questions. They're young and don't know anything, I expect more from a self-proclaimed "Video Game Veteran". You refuse to look anything up yourself and only want to be spoonfed. despite what your big text says, you can ask stupid questions and you've been asking a fuckton of them. Don't tell me to be more polite because you don't know [parasitic bomb], look it up your damn self if you don't want people getting pissy at you.

All they're saying is you should actually take the time to look up the information yourself. They provided you with the related sites to look for whatever you have questions about, not to mention a nifty little thing called GOOGLE exists.
Getting upset because they won't give you answers is childish within itself.
Usually, I don't mind this. However it has reached a point.
N-Mario, I know you have plenty of questions, however a lot of your questions can, and are easily answered on Serebii or Bulbapedia. True, so information like where to find Mr. Bonding for the final O-Power, is not specific. Then you can ask here and everyone will be happy to help.
There is no stupid questions, but there are still limits. As for everyone else, me included, time to step back.
Okay fine..... I'm sorry.
Just that I've been going through some trouble in RL lately and I just wanted to have the game finished. One of the reasons I stopped playing MMO/RPG games because the tend to get too repetitive, and causes lots of frustrations among players like this. One of my PC hard drives recently failed, and I'm not sure if I'll be able to recover all the recent files stored on it. I had to order a new drive, and some other parts which is costing me right now. Top it all off currently out of a job, so money is going out, but nothing is coming in. Trying to pass the time, finally getting around to catching up on some of my 3DS games. Pokemon X is, fun but frustrating at times esp. during Elite Four phase. But you get the point..... Even though I should have looked it up I did not, failed to do so. I have though been looking up at other trainers pokemon weaknesses, and I'm just getting tired going through pokemon that I don't have a super effective strategy for. So I end up brain [tornado fang]'d and start doing things sometimes even after trying multiple things until breaking it down to a science. Another reason why I didn't want to get involved in this again. There's too many of these to catch, and too many move sets with a limit of 4, which also gets me frustrated having to lose a move that I could use later on, but decided to remove anyway.
Long story short, sometimes I have a brain disorder, and I'm terrible with last minute decisions when it comes to pressure like that.
I feel like I need to have everything with me because they're all useful their own little way, but it's just not possible. It's the little things like this that just get to me, and some things I regret doing in this game. It doesn't help that there's only one save for each game, in case I wanted to go back and look at something in the main story game while continuing onward. But that's not even possible... Without some sort of unofficial backup solution.
Again, I'm sorry for whatever reason you have against me. Next time, I'll try to think before posting. Just that sometimes I just can't think strait. :(
Ok, matter settled. No more kicking a dead Rapidash.
Like I said, check Serebii or Bulbapedia first. Not specific enough, you can ask here.
Now back to my scheduled stalling to fight the E4.
For the record, Zygarde took five Ultra Balls to catch. That seems to be an average with Legendaries, at least for me. Xerneas also took five Ultra Balls, and I suspect Zapdos will, too. Just take twenty Ultra Balls with you and keep a hit sponge out and after tedious throwing, you'll catch him.
I've had non-Legendaries take more Balls. Seven Poke Balls, plus one Quick Ball, three Great Balls, and two Dusk Balls on Kangaskhan. She did not want to be caught. She's Scrappy, too. Her name is Mother Mary.
And why are there no Officer Jennies in this region? No wonder Mr. Bonding keeps getting away with his shenanigans!
To be honest, the only Jennys were in Gen1 and Gen2 (and associated Gen3 and Gen4 remakes).
Kalos needs a police force.
And I finally saw the Anistar Sundial in action. I could stare at it... forever...
... Oh yea, I should head and see it, since it's like... 9.45pm here. >_>
Also, good haul at the Glittering Cave, caught 3 Mawiles, 1 Ferroseed, and found 1 more Old Amber.
Trying to get just one more Amber, and see if I can encounter another Kangaskhan.
So hypnotic...
I should head back to Glittering Cave for some treasure-hunting. Need to pull out Pavorotti for rock-smashing, so Anne Bonney goes back in the box. Or I could pull out TrouserSnake, since she needs leveled...
And you have plenty of fossils to get now.
PLENTY
And more Kangaskhans and Mawiles to catch! But yeah, I need Old Ambers.
Hmm I'm having a conundrum, I'm wondering if I should mix up my teams a little bit since I kind of want to use a Galvantula but I already have 2 bug types.
Here's what I currently have on my first Team
Mienshao
Florges
Cloyster
Aerodactyl
Gengar
Escavalier
I'll probably switch between Mega Aerodactyl and Mega Gengar depending on the situation
And then there's the next team I want to train
Mega Heracross
Togekiss
Goodra
Greninja
Chandelure
Mamoswine
If I have to forgo something it would most likely be either Chandelure or Mamoswine, most likely Chandelure. But I really do wonder if I should mix up some mons or something. Maybe train others and interchange in between.
Today's treasure hunt through the Dwebble Cave wasn't entirely fruitless, but the last run-through, every single damn rock had a Dwebble in it.
Every.
Single.
One.
I got fed up and Escape Roped out of there.

Yeah I had to renter the room about 3-5 times before I finally got Aerodactyl. Did you get a root fossil in any of those runs?
Two of them. Still no Old Ambers and I lost count how many times I went back and forth through that room. When all I find are Dwebbles or nothing at all, it's time to leave and try again another day.
You want me to give you an Aerodactyl later if you don't find one. I have a shitload I need to unload.
I have a hatchling, I just want to find some Old Ambers to at the very least complete my fossil collection.
And I think I have one of the happiest Mewtwos on this forum. Mine is very happy, he earned a Smile Ribbon, an Effort Ribbon, and the friendship rater says he loves spending time with me. All those hours gone into raising Mewtwo's friendship and affection levels were totally worth it.

More adventures in nicknaming and finding out what I can and can't name my Pokemon:
I can't name my Solrock "Rock of Ages," but I can name a Spinda "Whino." The hell.
Did you name that one pokemon Runaway because it ran away from you? Or is it a reference to something just of curiosity?
The first Abra I encountered ran away, so the second one I wised up and caught it in a Quick Ball and named it Runaway out of spite.

That makes sense. Though why "Criss Angel" wasn't permitted has me stumped. I don't think it's the name itself, as "Uri Geller" was accepted fine, and he was the nut who had a problem with Kadabra.
Not as bad as what happened to this guy at first.
http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Cofagrigus
So my Dwebble Cave run last night was pretty good. Got 3 additional Ambers, some Revives, and multiple Hard Stones to sell. I miss the Stone seller that will pay me $500 per Hard Stone... As for additional Kangaskhan, no luck.
Also found out that the hidden items found in beaches do respawn like in BW/B2W2.
Have you gotten the items in the hedge maze at the Poke Ball Factory? It took a trip to Bulbapedia for me to realize that there was a maze there.
Yep. I have the guidebook, so I made sure to grab all the items, visible and the hidden ones.
Although there is one hidden item I have yet to find. Terminus Cave lvl1, my guidebook states there's a hidden Big Nugget. Note that this is NOT the same Big Nugget that is hidden in Z's level.
... At least I think they are not the same.
I checked Serebii, and Bulbapedia, but they only mentioned the one found at Z's level. So if anyone found the one I'm looking for, do enlighten me on the location.
I need to go find more hidden items. And brave the Dwebble Cave again, but finding Dwebbles under every single rock is frustrating as hell. I either found those... or NOTHING. I don't know which was worse! At least I got Exp from the Dwebbles, but come on! It just got tedious.
I found more Onixes than Dwebbles. Thanks for luring them away. 8D
Okay. Took my 3DS with me out to dinner. Got a green street pass from someone in Pokemon X. I could not find any obvious differences when I played it. Though the guy I passed was playing the Y version.
Yeah I admit I have no idea what Street Pass is used for in the game.
I haven't gotten any Street Passes.
streetpasses just gift you with PokeMiles which you can use to get items online at the Global Link (or in the South Lumiose Pokemon Center, but things are much much cheaper on the PGL).
you have to use the holo caster via the PSS and check for streetpass news there to receive it.
Huh. I must have a bit for walking past myself... Need to check.
Yeah I should check too I must have tons of-
"Streetpass has not been activated for Pokemon X and Pokemon Y yet"
MOTHER [tornado fang]er. Why wasn't this something they tossed in front of me?
because it's basically useless
you'll earn far more miles yourself just by exploring kalos than you'll get via streetpasses.
Just activated my StreetPass. Doubt I'll get any, as the kids around here are more interested in dealing drugs in the woods across the street.
TEAM FLORA HAS INVADED MY NEIGHBORHOOD
If I find out mine wasn't activated too... I'll be pissed. Since I O-powered myself to and fro.
... Yes, I bonded with myself.
It's interesting how some of the pokemon intros in poke-ami are random. Like how sometimes they have their backs turned away from the players view camera, or the way they try to play "Peek-a-boo" when you enter. Vivillon did an upside down peek-a-boo on me, and screen slowly rotated right side up. ^_^
I'm unsure if every pokemon does it. I haven't seen a Mewtwo do it. Maybe its only some pokemon.
Mewtwo does it. Side glances, popping up from the bottom, upside-down, back turned, ready and waiting... and Ultimate Death Glare if you toss him around in his ball too much. Avoid cycling hatching runs while he's out in Amie. He doesn't like them and will get pissed off.
Looking at some future XY episodes...
QuoteEpisode 817: Spooky Shelter! Espurr Watches You!! (January 30th 2014)
Ahahaha... IT'S CANON
I have plenty of Streetpasses.
In fact, I'm going to Nintendo World tomorrow to get more! 8D
I want StreetPasses...
I want Nintendo World...
I want a shiny...
While I'm wishing for things, I also want to win the lottery.
I wish to win the lotto as well!
I got 3 PP Maxes from the Lotto, I'm happy with that. Got a few PP ups as well.
Come to think of it, since I got my bicycle in the game, I hardly even used it. Mainly because it's kinda useless in most areas. Not to mention have to go into the bag inventory every time just to pull it out. I don't know any other way of pulling it out, though I've seen it happen on some videos I seen on youtube. I think I mostly either ran, used roller skates, or flew to the area with my Pidgeot.
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.
My current line-up isn't battle-ready, except for Mewtwo, Runaway, and Flamin' Yawn, who's finishing leveling. The rest of the team consists of mid- and low-levels, mostly HM slaves and a Furfrou I got trimmed for style points.

If you go into your menu and click on an item you can choose to select it instead of using it. When you do you set it to the Y button and you can use that instead of the menu for Key Items. The best part is in this game you can set up to 4 items instead of 1 and choose which one via the D-Pad or Circle Pad.
Damn eggs don't want to hatch.
How long till Hatching Power levels up? I've used it like 5 times now and its still level 1.

Eevee, I had a Talonflame with me but I shifted them out to get my Sylveon out of the Daycare and swap it with Ditto, now I have two eggs with me and no Talonflame so I'm waiting for one to hatch before I bring it back in.
And it hatched... yet another male Eevee, yet another Wonder Trade fodder.
Yeah that would take forever without a Pokemon with Flame Body and Magma Armor. It's a little over 9000 steps to hatch, though more than 4500 is still pretty long.
It'd take less time if the O-Powers leveled up faster, probably.
Maybe, but O-Powers aren't really the best source hatching Pokemon since they are kind of limited.
I still prefer Gen5's Shortcut menu cause you could shortcut specific screens and stuff, not just items
and it wasn't limited to 4.
Yeah and I prefer how Gen 4 kept the Pokeballs in a separate Pocket instead of with the normal items like in Gen 5 and this game.

lvl1 to lvl2 needs 15 uses.
lvl2 to lvl3 needs 30 uses.
Each unit of energy takes about 4 minutes to recharge if the number beside the clock is 1.
If the number is 4, it takes about 1 minute.
The number is dependent on the number of steps you made with your 3DS.

lvl1 to lvl2 needs 15 uses.
lvl2 to lvl3 needs 30 uses.
Each unit of energy takes about 4 minutes to recharge if the number beside the clock is 1.
If the number is 4, it takes about 1 minute.
The number is dependent on the number of steps you made with your 3DS.
To get 4, you need >4999 steps.
I knew all the stuff except how to increase the level, that wasn't there before.
God, 15 uses? That's lame.
Well, if you have ppl to share it to, the leveling will be faster.
Wait, I can send it to multiple people, right.

Mewtwo does that "peek-a-boo" thing, too.
To this day, I still wonder how people are ripping top quality animations (http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/645029-pokemon) like these. (http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/643673-pokemon)
The second one, I'm 90% sure is also from Poke-Amie.
But yea, Mewtwo being cute, is a little over top for him. Then again, there are other pokemon that always frown, but still seem to be cute in Amie as well.

Its no use, my internet is fried apparently.
Or I pissed Nintendo off by doing so many damn Wonder Trades in a row.
Lol, pissed at Wonder Trade spamming.
Its not my fault I want to get something better than the [parasitic bomb] I've been getting.
Though I've gotten some great things as well, Ghastly, Rotom, Squirtle, Charmander, Fennekin.
The only good thing I got was a baby Japanese Ralts that is Modest, with egg moves. Pity the egg moves were all physical.
Guess they wanted a Gallade. :\
But maybe it was female?

Mine is at maximum affection and friendship, so he cuts loose a bit. Still very demanding, but he's happy. I usually interpreted the peeking as just him demanding attention.
Quote from: Clefant on November 21, 2013, 05:48:20 AM

It's possible, but Modest is not a good nature for a Gallade. It lowers it's Attack and raises Special Attack and a Gallade and Gardevoir's Attacka and Special Attack are switched.
Trading breeding leftovers usually helps with getting cool stuff
I'm pretty much happy with any trade I get. The best one I got was that Japanese Tropius with Pokerus. Patient Zero was awesome with cultivating a plague that I now send out with my Abras when I do Wonder Trade.
What Rep said. Darn your luck. >.>
And the Ralts is indeed female.
Now for something random:
Dat Purloin. XD
I need to infect some more Abras and send them out, then breed some more. I'm raising one of my breeders so I have a female Alakazam (eventually, she needs traded first), as I want to see if there's any gender dimorphism with the Mega Evolution. Sure would be weird if that female Alakazam grows a full-on beard...
I also have one of my hatchlings that I play with in Amie because Abras are so goshdarn CUTE in Amie.
This just occurred to me. I haven't seen any of the blade/sword pokemon be nicknamed 'Masamune'. Though I read some did Excalibur as a nickname, and some others. Unless there are, and just didn't say or show for it. Or unless that goes under the category "too easy" or something.
Eventually I may have named one "Masamune," but when I started naming mine, I just stuck with Arthurian names. Seemed fitting with how they're broadswords.
In Pokemon-Amie, are some of the pokemon Idle Animations different? I noticed that if I left Vivillon idle for a short while, it either starts looking up and around, or does a cute, short little dance with its feet. ^_^

Why don't you experiment for yourself and find out
Checking Mewtwo's idle. Right now, his back is toward me and he's just swishing his tail.
Got him to turn around. Looking around... looking around... looking around... Nothing else beside that. Said "hello," and he perked up. Then, I fed him and pet him as a reward for putting up with my bullshit. :P
Hey Sakura... Are you still looking for an Impish Ditto?

Question.
So, I'm participating in the Battle Maison. If I want to pause my challenge midway, do I choose "Interrupt" or "Save"? I know to carry on is "Continue".
Interrupt.
I see.
So, if I want to continue on, I just choose back the challenge I interrupted, and it will continue from where I left off?

Hmm I'm having a conundrum, I'm wondering if I should mix up my teams a little bit since I kind of want to use a Galvantula but I already have 2 bug types.
Here's what I currently have on my first Team
Mienshao
Florges
Cloyster
Aerodactyl
Gengar
Escavalier
I'll probably switch between Mega Aerodactyl and Mega Gengar depending on the situation
And then there's the next team I want to train
Mega Heracross
Togekiss
Goodra
Greninja
Chandelure
Mamoswine
If I have to forgo something it would most likely be either Chandelure or Mamoswine, most likely Chandelure. But I really do wonder if I should mix up some mons or something. Maybe train others and interchange in between.
Still don't know what to do about this.

Holy [parasitic bomb]. That could be a horrifying team.
I never understood the whole "Let's make cute things our leader, all hail [X]" thing, especially with some character like Goomy. Sure it looks cute, but why do people overrate it as so? I believe this happened with GIR as well, and he was a robot sidekick.

Using the 3DS Capture to record at lossless quality, then on each frame, edit to remove the background with Photoshop, then re-process the frames into a gif or video.
Another trick is to rip out the graphics from inside the ROM, which only a few people know how to do.
I name my Dittos after gelatin or bubble gum. Thus I have Jell-O and Bazooka Joe. Next up: Silly Putty, Gack, and Puddin'!

I think it's because Ditto or Goomy would be such ineffective world leaders that we must hail them out of pity. Or, perhaps they possess a power we don't know about, so we should hail them out of fear. Push them too far and they could slime us.
Or, the Internet is weird. I think that's the most likely of explanations.
I name all my Panchams after Gorons, cause panGORO
My first is named Po, then another is named Jack Black, then I started hitting up Street Fighter names for Chun Li, then named another after Elektra.
Sigilyphs, Tentacools, Octilleries, and Inkays get Cthulhu Mythos names. Can't wait to start a battle and toss Huitloxopetl out into the fray.
And with clearing the game, my guidebook is useless due to no postgame.
... Anyone changed into lacey or ribbony for that one artist girl in Kiloude City that's in an art slump?
Nope. Not yet, anyway. It means spending money for clothes I won't wear again.
Goodness, I'm tired as hell! It's not as if I've been spending time in Amie with a Honedge or anything. I'm just.... tired.
You just get a crappy Swirlix-themed dress. It's not worth it, not when male PCs get that awesome Pangoro hat.
I am so jealous of that hat!
Me too!
Lol, I see. At least the dress will be sticky!
... God, I need to train a Goodra. And a male Gardevoir to Mega.
I need to evolve my female Kadabra into Alakazam and Mega her so she'll grow a beard.
CROSS-DRESSING POKEMON! 8D
MY IDEAL CROSSDRESSING HUSBAND IN A WEDDING DRESS
... I blame TVTropes for putting all that fringe theories into my head.
I have a male Ralts named Susan. I should raise him! 8D
I have a female Eevee named Stevie from an in-game trade. 8D
What NPC had the Eevee?
A random Maid in a random hotel in the first room. Just like with the foreign Backpacker that's not from any of the known Pokemon regions, you need to speak to her for about 4 times before she trades. She will take any Pokemon.
The same method is used to get a Hiker to trade his Magikarp for you Gyarados, a Rich Lady to give you a Lava Cookie, and a Waiter that gives you a RageCandyBar.
I still need to go catch a Gyarados. Haven't gone Surf-fishing enough.
Time to go to every hotel and talk to people...
Is there anything special about that Magikarp?
Besides being Adamant...
Nope. 8D
Every game NEEDS a Magikarp conman. 8D
But it's OK, just to get the Trainer ID.

Happening
[spoiler]
[/spoiler]
Upgraded my Mega Ring, and found all the Mega Stones sans Mewtwonite X.
[spoiler=For N-Mario, doubt there is any difference, no matter the time]
8.05pm
Oh, hi, <Player>!
Running around Kalos sure is not easy, is it?
Oh yeah, I'm the one making you do that, aren't I?
Terribly sorry about that!
Well, Calem/Serena may have already told you, but U found a way to power up the Mega Ring!
Before you get to that, however...
Let's talk about Mega Stones briefly.
My theory is that they're special stones irradiated by the light--the energy of the Legendary Pokemon Xerneas--fired from the ultimate weapon 3,000 years ago.
And that's what I think they are.
It's even possible that stones like Fire Stones were what turned into these Mega Stones.
So what's the Mega Ring that you are holding?
That mysterious stone transforms feelings felt toward Pokemon into some kind of wavelength.
The Mega Ring works in a similar way to how this object over here works.
It's an object that changes sunlight into a mysterious light.
For one hour starting 8 PM, this sundial starts emitting light.
This mysterious object has towered over the city here for over 3,000 years.
It's relationship to the Mega Ring isn't understood at all yet.
Now, let's get down to the heart of the matter!
<Player>! Try touching the sundial!
(It's bonding time~ 8D)
You were exposed to the Legendary Pokemon's energy in Team Flare's secret HQ.
And the Mega Ring has absorbed the power of the sundial.
These two powers have combined to upgrade your Mega Ring.
Now it will react to underground Mega Stones, but only when the sundial is emitting light.
I'm sure these stones hide in every corner of Kalos! Use this power to find them!

At least we've bridged the gap somewhat. They used to be a year or more ahead of us. Eight to ten episodes is a drop in the bucket.

Quote from: Celestia Ludenberg on November 22, 2013, 07:12:04 PM

I don't watch anything in Japanese. I never did, and I won't start now. I only like watching in English Dubs. Don't ask why. :P
Speaking of, done watching Episode 4 of the Pokemon Origins in English. It was pretty good. Though there are some logical errors, but who's keeping up with that anyway. :P
I do admit a lot of the time I do prefer to watch dubs over subs when available.
Ya know.... I'm just thinking.... I know that the Safari is based on the FC codes, but is it also possible of which 3DS is played on? In other words, the "Normal" type in safari could be that people playing on the first 3DS considering it being the "normal" 3DS that was released first. Maybe for the other FC codes, like Fire Type being a red 3DS, water type being a blue 3DS. Has that been considered, or is it just a mere coincidence of what types we get via FC codes, and the exact same pokemon line up?
I was saying this, because I am currently playing on a regular 3DS. Though I also have a 3DS XL, which is blue. Though I maybe asking for a 2DS for xmas. Though I donno if I should, or will transfer anything from my regular 3DS to any of the new ones.
No idea, really.
I started catching up on Origins, along with various episodes of the main series. Origins is great thus far. As far as the main series goes, the later theme songs dwindle in quality, from tolerable to WHAT THE HELL IS THIS EMO POP [parasitic bomb] DOING IN MY POKEMON? Haven't heard the XY series theme song, yet.
I miss the old, cheesy theme song. Yes, it was cheesy, but it was catchy.
I still love the guys total douchebag voice in "2.B.A. Master" when he says "SO YOU WANT TO BE A POKEMON MASTER?!"
Still better than the raspy-voiced emo Nickelback wannabe mealy-mouthed crap theme from the Unova arch.
I'd say the Orange Island theme was probably my favorite.
Hm, I'm planning to change around Runaway's moveset. Psybeam is the first move to go, but I'm not yet sure what move I'll replace it with. He's all offensive moves, currently, as he was originally raised to beat the game, and to grind, grind, grind. Now that he's done so, I'd like to add some status-affecting moves.
Mewtwo may soon lose Thunderwave, as he'll soon be replaced by a lower-level on Team Capture, but I'm not sure what I'll replace it with. I like his multi-type moveset, and I want to avoid putting in a second Psychic move, so I'm planning to teach him Earthquake. He needs a multi-target move.
Can it be? Am I actually considering movesets for battling? To actually stand a chance?
I finally got all the moves on my one Pokemon that I wanted. Now for Pokesex!
I plan to hook Runaway up with one of my breeders for some quality Pokesex.
I'm still considering some strategy which might have to wait until the bank opens, maybe set up a hazard or weather team later. It'll be a mess. XD
So... Anyone use Pokemon Showdown? Just curious.
Nope.
I also haven't returned to the Battle Maison, as it's just not conducive to grinding and leveling.

It does the same in Kiolude city and I have no idea why since it doesn't affect the friend safari or Battle Maison, though since my rival has a Jolteon it might be the reason. :\
And just as it started suddenly, it ended suddenly.
... I don't know what to do anymore.
I know I have yet to catch Mewtwo and Z, but I'm going to do that when I'll lvl100. >_>
Still waiting for Looker to get me into the next chapter...
... I could try Le Wow... Or I should just continue my Y.
what chapter are you on in the looker quest? I did all of them right when I started. Interesting that it sends you a new message right after you walk out the door, and enter the North or South side of Lumiose City.
So unless you missed something in one of the quests.
I'm currently in chapter 2.
And I doubt there's any way to miss things, this is Looker we are talking about.
I haven't even started with the Looker quests, yet. Still working on finishing Mewtwo's and Flamin' Yawn's leveling. I also have some move-teaching to do, need to pick up an egg from the daycare and hatch it and my backlog, go Surf-fishing for a Gyarados or two, do some in-game trades...
I also plan to experiment more with Amie, see if Gandalf (one of my Abra hatchlings) will give me a high-five. It's so cute when he dissolves into a pile of happiness and cuddles, and that ear-wiggle gets me every time. Oh, I just want to hug and snuggle Abras all day long!

Onwards into chapter 3...
Sooner or later, Nintendo or Game Freak will find a way to develop Pokemon that will actually give us more interaction options, and the possible ability to 'hug' them as well.
^ Please Nintendo, make this happen.
I can't remember if I already mentioned this once before, though it would be nice if they could develop a Wii U addition of the Pokemon Stadium series for X Y. and a Wii-U HD version of Poke-Amie while they're at it.
Also, according to Bulbapedia, some of the pokemon not found in X & Y, seem to have a pokedex entry listed in X Y anyway (like Beautifly, or some like Lugia, etc). How are people finding this? I know there's one hacker who posted some new unknown pokemon, but I'm not sure they would find all the text data too. But I donno.

Well
obviously if a pokemon exists its in the game already, you just can't get it currently is all. And people hack the game its no surprise.
You can find Beautifly in the Friend Safari, as for Lugia probably was able to find it via hacking.
Speaking of Friend Safari somebody's Vulpix ended up finding its way to me. That was pretty cool.

Okay so Elite four is a load of [parasitic bomb] right now.
Siebold's Gyarados can eat it because "Hurr i spam dragun dance now i beat everything"
I haven't even fought Drasna and I already know that's gonna be a crock because [tornado fang] ALTARIA.
On the other hand the other two look like cake and that makes me really sad.
Hence why I love my Gardevoir so much. Moonblasting all them Dragons.
As for Gyarados... Wait, who's on your team?
Lets see... well that team was already [tornado fang]'d as I forgot to send a level 32 talonflame back to the box and replace it with Garchomp.
Anyway:
Pidgeot
Blaziken
Greninja
Venusaur (Who's like 10 levels behind the others)
Sylveon
The bastard did three Dragondances in a row and proceeded to be faster than every other pokemon I have.
EDIT: HAHAHAHA [tornado fang] YOU ALTARIA YOU COTTONSWAB PEACOCK PIECE OF [parasitic bomb] SYLVEON WASN'T PULLED DOWN BY YOUR SINGING BULLSHIT! :W
LOL... ... ... Only 5 Pokemon?
At that time it was since Talonflame was deadweight.
I put Garchomp back in so its at 6 now.
But... But... Talonflame. D:
Well, looking at this... You could try getting Stone Edge or Rock Slide on Garchomp and kill Gyarados...
Or tough it out with Mega Venusaur.
Yeah [tornado fang] gyarados i quit.
seriously "hurr dragun dance". I'm not raising an elec pokemon or using a pokemon that can learn elec moves just to kill one [tornado fang]ing enemy.
Despite it DD-ing and Ice Fang, Mega Venusaur can still tank for a bit, given it has Thick Fat and high defenses.

Despite it DD-ing and Ice Fang, Mega Venusaur can still tank for a bit, given it has Thick Fat and high defenses.
Then my Venusaur is probably the worst thing ever.
His Defense is his worst stat (98, best is Sp. Attack), and his ability is just Overgrow.
No thick fat, no decent defense.
Not like it matters since all of Sierados' moves are physical and can easily overtake any of my pokemon in one [tornado fang]ing shot without a chance for me to even react.
God its like i'm back in the [tornado fang]ing old days of pokemon where I only ever used my starter and a legendary and the rest of the team was literally [parasitic bomb] I caught really early on with no training and if my starter went down the rest of the team crumpled without a second's notice.
Once you Mega Evolve it it's ability gets changed to Thick Fat and it's Defenses will skyrocket.
Just hit it with something bigger. Fattening up your team can get them to overcome their weaknesses from sheer power difference. It's how I kicked his ass with Charizard (after his clawitzer 1-shot my electric-user).

Or if you wanna grind, battle at the Restaurants. Le Yeah is nice for money and EXP.
Still doesn't change the fact that Venusaur is still the weak link of the team and barely holds its own with the rest of Siebold's team, especially that [tornado fang]ing starmie and its psychic spam. ([tornado fang]ing Petal Blizzard could stand to kill the first time instead of stopping at Red.)

Blaziken is like level 83 (Well level 82 now since i apparently don't understand the concept of saving or something.) Not fast enough to deal with Sierados.
Pidgeot and Greninja are in the early 70s. Pidgeot's Achilles heel is the Ice Fang while Greninja just doesn't have it in him to withstand a [tornado fang]ing earthquake (how does a flying pokemon get earthquake anyway the [tornado fang]).
Garchomp... well 2x ice fang again.
Sylveon is good for the dragons but not much else.

When the pokemon are 20 levels below your weakest its kind of hard to grind exp off of them. And I have a vast dislike of the restaurants, especially le yeah for the [tornado fang]ing protect spam, for that arbitrary turn limit/best in x turns thing, just let me kill everything in one hit and get the full reward so i don't have to play the "waste 1/2 turns dancing around to hit that turn limit and hope that [tornado fang]er doesn't spit out a protect or miraculously dodge the attack" game. The one that would actually probably net me decent EXP is locked off till I beat the champion so that doesn't help me either.
I realize now that my complaining is really [tornado fang]ing obnoxious so I'm just gonna go ahead and shut up and play something else. This just isn't fun anymore.

And I have a vast dislike of the restaurants, especially le yeah for the [tornado fang]ing protect spam, for that arbitrary turn limit/best in x turns thing, just let me kill everything in one hit and get the full reward so i don't have to play the "waste 1/2 turns dancing around to hit that turn limit and hope that [tornado fang]er doesn't spit out a protect or miraculously dodge the attack" game. The one that would actually probably net me decent EXP is locked off till I beat the champion so that doesn't help me either.
Lucky Egg + EXP O-Power gives more than enough EXP.

Sacrifices the venusaurite, unless I can just go and switch the held item halfway through a battle or something.

I realize now that my complaining is really [tornado fang]ing obnoxious so I'm just gonna go ahead and shut up and play something else. This just isn't fun anymore.
Oops, forgot about taking off the Venusaurite. >_>
As for the restaurants not giving enough EXP... How did you think I got overleveled from. The Restaurants give more EXP than you think. This isn't Gen5, EXP is a set amont based on the species.

Wait.
There's the O-Powers for SpAtt and Att!!
Lvl3 them, and it should be enough. Of course Venusaur has to be the lead Pokemon to receive the O-Power when in battle.

Let me guess 45 uses each to level them to level 3 just like the Hatching power.
No thanks. I'm seriously not going to put much more effort into the game, not that I put very much in the begin with but I don't want to put all this trouble forward because of one douche's stupid not-a-dragon.
LOL, alright. Just throwing them out. Back to Chapter 4 for me...

I imagine one of these days I'll go ahead and finish the game but right now I'm just too angry to care. I don't even give a [parasitic bomb] about fighting/beating the champion I just want to [tornado fang] around with friend safari and stuff. I couldn't care less about any of these characters or what their ambitions/stories are, The battling in this game for the most part is a massive drag and not fun. Then again I never really cared for fighting to begin with, its why I spend all of my time online spamming wonder trade, because getting more pokemon and filling the pokedex is what I enjoy doing, never once have I cared for anything outside of that really save maybe the game music.

HAHA YES GO [tornado fang] YOURSELF SIEBOLD YOU PRETENTIOUS [Top Spin].
I think I let myself get too frustrated, I didn't properly plan or anything.
Not that I'll really have much chance if any of my pokemon faint since somebody forgot to buy Full Restores.
Revives first?
Also, Sakura, do you still have Gooey Goomys/Sliggoos?

LET'S SEE YOUR THIRD MON
They all died to Blaziken.
And then Touko won the day and got the Pokemon Movie ending thing.
I'm not sure whether to be happy or bugged.
Once the credits finish somebody go tell me if my third pokemon is as disappointing as the other two.
You need to be online first to see the 3rd Mon.

FINALLY
You have Tyrogue. Nice.
Oh that is really nice.
Okay. For some reason I thought petting your 'mons increases their enjoyment notes. But I started petting vivillon again (with all 5 hearts) and its enjoyment level went down. It seems that they like being petted, but then I guess they want to play a game afterward, in order to rank their enjoyment back up to 5 music notes. Though I know playing games decrease their fullness.
Guess I'm getting things mixed up..... Oh well, I guess it's not that important.
So if anybody gets a second tyrogue from my safari can you trade it out so I can get one? That's really the only one in my safari I care about.
How about I trade you the one I caught?
I can always catch Tyrogue again later, since the game only needs to see you online once to unlock the 3rd Mon.

Enjoyment is all about playing games. Though, if you want them at full enjoyment, switching them out for another Pokemon will set them at full enjoyment. However, then the Pokemon you have out will be demanding. You can feed them about three Puffs and play with them twice, and they'll be mid-level, which will keep them happy for a while.
Battling makes them hungry, though.
Looker Side Quest is done.
I'm on Chapter 2.
I finally got the Strange Souvenir from the one guy. Then I played the lottery, then went and did Room Service for $10,000. Got a Sleep Ribbon from some chick, so that went to Pierce the Bisharp. Went fishing for a bit, then tended to my Berry farm, then taught Mewtwo Earthquake and Runaway Energy Sphere, or whatever it's called.
AH LEGENDARY POKEMON IN THE BATTLE INSTITUTE! :o
And I bet you can't use any Legendaries in there, either. Just to show that the computer is a dick.
Or, can you use them? I know you can't use them in the Battle Maison, which makes grinding them there pointless, along with the level cap and lack of Exp gain.

Not really. All Battle [insert name here] throughout the generations banned all event legendaries and blatantly overpowered ones. For instance, the Four Swords of Unova are usable because they are caught in game and have base stats of <=600 but Mewtwo can't because, though gaught in game, has base stats of 700. The likes of Victini, Manaphy, etc. are event legendaries, so not allowed.

DO NOT QUESTION ME O^O
Had some more cute Abra playtime with Gandalf. I just love watching him dissolve into happiness and cuddles.
And Pierce is at mid-affection. BRING ON THE STRANGE MESSAGES THAT SIMULTANEOUSLY BRING ON THE SQUICK BECAUSE THIS BISHARP SHARES MY BROTHER'S NAME!
Delphox does a little dance in Amie if you either idle for a bit, or talk a lot. I couldn't tell which, as I had Flamin' Yawn out while talking to my brother and sis-in-law. Either way, it was cute. I'll experiment more later.
Welp, I'm giving myself more work to do. I still have to finish the Looker quest, and I have Tyrogues to evolve now (ugh). But I decided to change a member of my team. I decided I finally want a Fairy type on my team, and I feel Togekiss can reliably replace my Swoobat as a special attacker. The loss in speed and attack sucks, but the defenses will make up for it. Just gotta get a Togepi with Serene Grace and then it's grind time.
Tried to get Gandalf to give me a high-five. He just watched the cursor. So, I pet him and he dissolved into cuddles and ear-wiggles. I also noticed that he's a mouth-breather, like Runaway. Is the whole Abra line made of mouth-breathers? I should play with Cagliostro (my female Kadabra) and see.
I'll let some others idle and see what they do. I'll also let them idle while talking and see what they do. Like I said, Flamin' Yawn did a little dance while I was talking with people.
Got all my starters now and I seem to have gotten really lucky with the turnout from my Friend Safaris.
Gonna hit the hay since I don't have anything of value to trade right now.
Alright, we'll try again next weekend.
I'll need to infect some trade fodder and more Abras, then hit up Wonder Trade for stuff.
Caught a Goomy in a luxery ball. After that pretty much haven't done much of anything else. Done all the cases, got a Mewtwo. Still don't have Zygarde. Haven't done the legendary bird yet. And I haven't noticed any difference after accepting the mega ring upgrade. Don't think there is anything in the safari other than adding on to the collection of caught pokemon.
And I don't know if I'll have any use for the oval charm.... Though I'm confused how to obtain it. Are you actually supposed to capture all the pokemon in the Kalos Region? Or can you just only see them in game, and then get the charm?
You just have to see them.
As of now, only my Talonflame and Gardevoir are not at lvl100 (they are halfway through lvl99).
I'm proud of Aile and her ridiculous 443 att in Blade form. :3
Flamin' Yawn is the only one not at lvl 100 of the original team, prior to Mewtwo joining (who took Ariados's spot after she leveled during the Elite Four). He's at 99, whereas Mewtwo is hovering around 97.
Gandalf evolved, so I have two Synchronize Kadabras.
More Synchronized sex?
Swimming.
Synchronised swimming.
... So that's what they are doing under the water surface...
Well, I plan to have Runaway spend time with Cagliostro. I'm not really concerned with getting more Synchronize Abras as I am just breeding Runaway's stats.
Best to keep him in check, lest he... Runs away from his responsibilities. 8D
Maybe he and Cagliostro can produce a nice Bold Synchronize Abra who hates to lose...
I tried running around some areas in the game between 8 and 9 PM, though just villages and some small caves. I didn't notice any obvious differences with the mega ring upgrade. Are some areas supposed to light up, or make noise if you get close to another mega evolution rock? I couldn't find anything obvious on the map either.
The ground will sparkle just like with the Looker Tickets.
In certain areas--such as the Chamber of Emptiness, or behind the Abomasnow in the Frost Cavern--will have a little sparkly thing where there's a Mega Stone. If you try to walk over this tile, it will block you, much like an item will.
Also, if you're not noticing anything during 8-9pm real time (20-21:00 hrs in-game time), your game's clock may not be set right, like mine. 8-9pm in-game is 7-8am real time for me.
Full list can be found on Serebii and Bulba. In-depth location can be found on the specific location pages.
Ah okay..... It's going to be hard to locate sparkle areas then if they're as tiny as the looker tickets. Though the only major difference I saw was the statue thing spinning in the center of Anistar town, with the huge crystal lighting up during this time period. So I think the clock in my 3DS is set right.
The only real troublesome one is the one found in Santalure Forest. The sparkles are hidden in the grass. However if you approach it, you can see the tip of sparkles. The others are in plain sight in their respective locations.
... Ok, so the one behind Abomasnow isn't in plain sight, still.
Out of curiosity, how useful, or useless is Shedinja? It only has 1 HP, and cant be hit by normal attacks. Though it can be hit by its weakness and critical hits, and weather conditions. To me, that sounds pretty useless. Though I've seen some videos where it couldn't be hit, and some where it was equipped with some items where it won't faint even when attacked by its weaknesses. So is this bug/ghost type pokemon pretty much immortal if used correctly? Or is it just a 'troll character' by Game Freak? I could see some benefits of its use, but then there's always the problem always having 1 hp even when trained at lvl 100.
Competitvely? You can forget about using it. Sure, you can give it a Focus Sash so that it can survive one super-effective hit. But the Sash disappears after one use. Good luck.
In-game has more uses, since you know what moves the Pokemon inside have. Take for example, Mewtwo. It has Barrier, Recover, Aura Sphere and Psychic at lvl70. Can it hit Shedinja? No.[tornado fang]ing.Way.
Since Shedinja can learn False Swipe, it's the perfect lead for catching Pokemon. If the target can't touch it.
Sableye is good against Mewtwo, also
Or, you know...
a Master Ball.
I still haven't gone into Cerulean Cave in Fire Red, yknow.
And I don't plan on using the Master Ball there either :P

Has anyone counted the number of times you're supposed to encounter the legendary birds? Trying to see if mine retreats to the cave. It keeps retreating to other routs. I try to stay in one or two areas that are fast for me to skate, or run to. I think I'm up to its 5th or 6th encounter at this point. Is it 10, or 15 encounters? or does it depend on the type of bird and its current location?
Is it based on a system where if I make too many mistakes, I have to start back at encountered it 0 times? I just don't want to feel like I'm encountering it too many times, only to find out it'll never escape to the island.

Ten times, if I recall. I think I'm on my... seventh? I haven't been keeping track. Sometimes, I find Zapdos hiding out in the same damn field a few times in a row.
If you're unsure, just make repeated trips to the island cave and check.

Is it based on a system where if I make too many mistakes, I have to start back at encountered it 0 times? I just don't want to feel like I'm encountering it too many times, only to find out it'll never escape to the island.
It's 11 times. And the counter never goes down.
Ah okay. 11 times? I lost count around 6 or 8 or something. Though 10 sounds about where I think I was, when it finally retreated into the cave.
Anyway, If I recall, some mega stones you need 1,000,000 to buy. Not in the Prof. Lab, but there was another guy willing to sell me a mega stone for that amount when I talked to him at the time I didn't have that much. Is this a waste of money or what? Anyway, I finally have that amount saved up, but I donno if I want to spend it. Though is there any alternatives besides wasting 10,000, or 1,000,000 of your money? I think there is only like 2 or 4 mega stones that cost this much, if I recall. When I checked, the Blasnoisenite was that much, since I started with Froakie, and started with Charmander. So the other mega stones for the starters I assume are going to be expensive.
Do more stuff in Lumiose to knock down the price. I got it down to $70,000, but I'm holding off until I get it lower than that. Ride the cabs, take the Gogoat shuttle, get your Furfrou styled, work in the Hotel, go have Alexa give you directions... The more you improve your style, the lower the price will go.
Honestly, $10,000 isn't a lot. Particularly with the surplus of money you get if you grind in the Battle Chateau and other battles. I have nearing $600,000 currently.
I'm nearing $5 million... And I already bought the 2 trenchcoats. 8D
You make so much money while training in Le Wow!
Well, my game team is now fully Lvl100s. And Aile has all 30 ribbons in the ST minigame. :3
Training up a Bagon now, since I initially wanted one in my team. Max att, training up spd now.
Maybe will train an Inkay too.
HOLY [parasitic bomb] I FOUND A SHINY BARBARACLE IN PB'S FRIEND SAFARI AND I CAUGHT IT! IT'S ALL GREEN AND PINK AND STUFF! :o

You're welcome! 8D
I need to Friend Safari and find shinies. Got my Hawluchas in the daycare for Masuda Method shiny breeding. One of them is Korean.
As for buying trench coats, I'm waiting until I'm over $600,000 until I buy the black trench coat. That's the only one I want. Until then, it's back to hotel work and grinding. I prefer the battle Chateau, as I don't have to pay an entrance fee for my free money. And I can fight Wulfric on occasion.
Just throwing this out there. But there some things I never understood about this game.
- When in Poke-Amie, Froakie, Frogadier, Greninja have their eyes like (- __ -) like their closed. But if they are in battle, they are fully open, like (o __ o). All their official artwork pics their eyes are open, but only in Poke-Amie, they look closed.
- Feeding a pokepuff to a freakin sword (Honedge, Doublade). Poke Logic. You can't feed anything to Shedinja, so I don't see why they could do this for the swords too. But I guess for the reason you can do this with Sedinja is being an empty shell ghost type. But still, freakin logic.
- As for the upcoming bank, I don't understand why we're going to have to pay an annual fee for a service we're going to use for the rest of our lives. We are already paying for the internet, and the wi-fi we use to go online isn't always free. In some areas there is free wi-fi, but I doubt that for our own home. The reason they give for the fee on their website is just kinda bull.
....it's $5 a year....
Five
I cannot stress that number enough.
Yeah, it's friggin chump change for a yearly charge. At best, Xbox Live costs $5 a MONTH.
Besides, it's free the first month it's available. So you have plenty of time to transfer everything over and get rid of the app.
Here, allow me to help put it into perspective for you.
This is what I pay MONTHLY: Rent, utilities, cellphone, Internet. They equal to roughly $300 a month.
$300 a month.
THREE HUNDRED DOLLARS
PER MONTH
We'll overlook that I am in a housing program and thus get cheap rent. But, that's my monthly expense, not counting miscellaneous bills. I pay that and more per month, every month.
Compare to $5 a year.
Really, a Lincoln per year is nothing. I repeat: NOTHING
So I was playing around with Wi-Fi battles. What I don't like is the more Pokemon on the field are playing, the more laggy it seems. Oh well.

I agree. Guys should have more clothing options.
I want a Gray suit with a Red shirt and Yellow tie to go with my Fedora!
I want more green clothes and girl hoodies.

Because the bank stores Pokemon online and you're paying for that storage space. Considering just how many people will be using the service and how small the fee is, it's very fair.

I know its a very cheap price per year, but still doesn't help for those who are unemployed, or for the little 5-6 year old kids who play this game, that need parent controls. The money is going to go somewhere, and I doubt kids have the money to spend on keeping their pokemon online, rather asking for their parents. Ya know cause their parents are already having to spend on their education, etc. I'm sure there are some parents that could help pay for the yearly fee, and there are some that just won't want to pay a little extra. There are parents that are like that.
Again, just sayin.....
Playing with Zardoz in Amie. I love how the big bad Legendaries get all cuddly in Amie... except for Mewtwo, who maintains his stoic demeanor even when munching on glorious chocolate cupcakes and getting belly rubs. My Zygarde, though... Rub him in the right spot and he just exudes love and cuddles.

Most young kids have an allowance. I know my niece and nephews could very easily afford it. Five bucks isn't much for anyone.
Ahahaha. If parents are having a hard time paying for a kid's education and stuff over $5, then they shouldn't have bought them a 3/2DS and Pokemon. Same for unemployed. Don't buy expensive game consoles if $5 a year really is too much. While we are at it, the $40 for internet, you can stop paying too...

I really can't wait to bring in the other 'mons from my games and see how they react in Amie. I wonder if you can fit a Wailord.

You could probably find $5 on the ground over the course of a week, two if you're unlucky.
Seriously, it's nothing.
In addition, if you can't pay the fee one year,

they'll be there when you can pay again.

Perhaps not confirmed, but come on, deleting stored Pokemon cause the fee wasn't paid would be the biggest of dick moves. I could be wrong, but since I'm sure Nintendo doesn't want to deal with people raging that their Pokemon uploaded to the servers were deleted because they couldn't pay (this also applies to those uploaded during the free trial), they'll just prevent you from accessing them. They'll be there, safe and sound, but you won't be able to access them, I'm sure.
Nintendo understands how important our Pokemon are to us, and the Bank was developed after market research into what people wanted for Pokemon storage. Fees would go into general maintenance of the server and protection of your Pokemon. You're paying a really paltry amount for secure storage for up to 3,000 Pokemon. Honestly, I think five bucks a year is just fine a price.
It's cheaper than what I pay per year for my Barnes & Noble membership. Guess how much per year that is? $25. I pay that without bitching. If you have a bookstore membership that you pay for, then don't [sonic slicer] about the Bank fee.
Christ, it's cheap as hell for secure Pokemon storage.
I thought it was going to be more than five dollars a year, to be honest.
I know it's not in some countries, Australia has to pay $8.50 for the service and that's the most.
which is still not too bad at all. that's less than a nickel a day. Less than 3 cents a day.
and i'm sorry but if you're complaining about paying for a service that amounts to THREE CENTS PER DAY (even in Australia, where everything's ridiculously overpriced), then perhaps the problem doesn't lie with those setting the price.
My concern is not the amount, but HOW the payment is made. Because it it's via eShop, I am screwed.
Well they said it's going to be stored in something like the Cloud so I honestly doubt that.
Just make it a way that's easily accessible to me, and I'll be happy.
... Though I have a feeling it won't be easy.
Speaking of the eShop, I still don't get why digital downloads aren't tied to an account, like on the PSN and XBLA. :\

I don't see how else you could pay for it. 3DS doesn't have anything else. Maybe when Nintendo Network functionality fully comes to 3DS that'll be better?

Which in all honesty is not so bad, with higher minimum wage and current high value of the dollar.
Though I have no idea why it isn't $7.50, but I guess Nintendo AU doesn't want me to be able to get something like a 3D Classics ($7.50) and fit it nicely into a $15 points card <_<
Eeeh, NES and GBC games are $6.50 so may as well.
Zardoz is almost at maximum affection and he's so very happy to see me! He loves his head being rubbed and those back fin things, and to play games and eat cupcakes. Big bad Kalos Legendary of legends acting like a baby Pokemon. I love it! XD
You should Amie Malamar, even with that wicked look, it still manages to smile... Evilly. 8D
Aren't most of the pokemon in amie react the same? Even if it's flying, or a ghost, monster, water, etc, and you pet it in different spots, they're all the same...... I think.
There's a lot of videos of poke-amie around youtube (even some like Malamar, and Zygarde). YT doesn't have all the Kalos Pokemon yet, though I reckon some video bloggers would get around to them eventually.
Though I do want to look at some others in Amie, not found in Kalos Region via Safari or something.
Mewtwo keeps his cool in Amie. Lucario keeps his cool. Zygarde, though? His reaction is best summed up as this:
Hiiiiiiii~! Oooh, chocolate Puffs, omnomnomnomnom! I LURVE YOU SO MUCH~ 0v0
Malamar loves me~ He loves to strangle me~
Mewtwo's reaction in Amie:
Mmmmm... such a nice rub... Thank you. Oh, chocolate Puff? Thank you. So, you wish to play a game? Very well. Thank you.
Runaway's reaction in Amie:
Mmmmm... oooohhh... rub my belly... AW YEAH. Ooh, a chocolate Puff? Nummy! AW YEAH. Play a game? AW YEAH.
I noticed you can still rub a certain part of mewtwos head, he still kind of likes it, as long as its not strait in the middle of his head. If that counts for anything.
Also, props if anyone can get a shiny legendary.........If....Possible.
And for whatever reason, http://gonintendo.com/?mode=viewstory&id=217885 has become a major issue. It even being flooded around GameFaqs boards on Pokemon X & Y. I for one and quite tired of hearing about this. It either needs to be fixed. Or just die down NOW.
Well, I have Mewtwo out in Amie, currently. Time to experiment some more... He doesn't like his ears touched, either, so I'll see where else he likes/hates. He likes his tail touched, if you can catch it.
Posted on: November 28, 2013, 05:55:15 AM
Found it. Mewtwo likes his muzzle and forehead rubbed. Avoid the ears, else death glare.
He wants a death glare?
THEN I CHALLENGE HIM AND YOU TO A POKEMON BATTLE!!! B(
No, he gives a death glare. Just try to rub your Mewtwo's ears and you'll see what I mean. :P

Not tonight, as I need to get to bed soon, so I can get up early and cook.
You need for food has saved you and Mewtwo....for now...
BUT SOON YOU SHALL BE MINE!!! B(
I'll get my team ready for another time. Easy defeat, should be fun.
I wonder why he doesn't like getting rubbed at the ears.
Also, vivillon's sad cry is so sad. But still, I make it up to him. Though I wish I could high five all the pokemon. I still want to give vivillon a high five. Sadly I can't.... Though I see someone high five a Goomy, with Goomy using one of its ears, or whatever those are. Pretty cute.
Mewtwo's favorite spots are his hands.
Ariados likes her spinnerets being rubbed.
Just caught Mewtwo, took me 3 Dusk Balls, a lucky critical hit from my Malamar using Night Slash that cut Mewtwo's HP into the red... AFTER HE BARRIER'D 3 TIMES. Also Hypnosis. Thank Arceus Mewtwo didn't Recover when my Hypnosis missed.
Now you know what you must do.
PLAY WITH HIM
PET HIM
CUDDLE HIM
FEED HIM
A horde of Zygarde iz monitoring your gamez. (http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/650212-pokemon)
Lol, Zygarden.
Mewtwo is still demanding in Amie. That's his evil plan for you. He's captured, so he has only one recourse in order to torment you: BE DEMANDING AS ALL HELL
Too bad it's been backfiring. :P
Went into someones safari, and they have a vivillon modern form. Though for whatever reason, it's not showing up as their 3rd slot, even though there is one. Is that also due to my 3DS region again, or can friend safaris have different vivillon patterns? Though I'm gonna say its not the ladder, even though the first gym leader as a meadow (JPN) variant.
Also, I have a certain feeling of not playing any of the other GBA/DS generations all the way through for the other pokemon with the poke bank coming out. I won't be able to have any pokemon to port over to this one.
still want to see a beautifly in poke-amie, but can't find any one with a FC that has it. :(
Just bought the black trench coat from Snooty McShop. The Blastoisenite price went down by $20,000, so later I should buy more stuff.

Oh, Zardoz now loves me forever. Working on Pierce.
I'm a bit hesitant to go catch Z. Because I hate Terminus Cave.
Articuno... Met 7 times now.
Evolved a 'F' Nincada into a Ninjask at Lvl 20 by doing a few wild battles in Victory Road. Got a Shedinja. Heh, it's funny looking in Amie. Even as a living shell, I feel it looks as if its lacking animation. Still pretty funny though.

Heh, found one last sky battle trainer I apparently forgotten around the beach area. Sky battles are fun, esp. with my Vivillon. ^_^
I just wish you could re-battle them, or something once you find them all, or reach a certain grade, or other kind of progression of the game. They're pretty cool. :)
Also, my mind is drawing a blank, but I can't seem to find the TM quiz person. I think I've answered like 2 or 3 by now, but I'm unsure how many there all in total. Was going to go back to her and see if there's any other TM she can give.
4 TMs, on a cliff beside Hotel Coumarine.
Yea I just found it just this min. ago. Was going to modify my last post but now, too late, you posted. *Ungh* >_<
And just finished the last of the TM quizes. ^_^
I should teach someone Return... but who? Mewtwo just learned Psystrike, and I may replace Flamethrower with something else, as once I get to raising more Fire types, him having Flamethrower will be redundant.

Once you have full friendship on a Pokemon it's base power becomes 102, so yeah it can be really powerful. Frustration is the opposite as you have to have the Pokemon absolutely hate you but that's hard to do and really the result is the same.

Well finally! :)
Also, it be awesome in a future update they could add on the ability to add clothes on to our pokemon. Like how we can dress up our own trainer characters. But I doubt that will ever happen.
Oh I forgot to mention Return is Physical so it would be useless on Runaway.
Okay, so Mewtwo would be a decent candidate, particularly in his Mega X form. I'll replace Flamethrower with it and play around. I'm also tempted to replace Earthquake with a different multi-target move, but I'm not sure which. Time to dig through my TMs...
So I've just been handed some ribbons at some random areas, and some hotels. Do they serve any other purpose other than "being there"? I'm looking around bublapedia, and serebii.net on what they are, but all they give is how to obtain them, and the description for each. It doesn't really say if it effects game play in any way. Though seems they've been around since Gen III, but I don't remember that back far.
My Greninja seems to be gaining the majority of them, as my first pokemon in-line of battles in this game. Though some ribbons that I've obtained multiple times I've gotten for the rest of my party. But I couldn't tell any gameplay differences.

As far as I know, they're just evident of the time of day (Pierce's Sleep Ribbon), level growth (Effort Ribbon), friendship (Mewtwo's Smile Ribbon), and the Footprint Ribbon. Just things to show how far your Pokemon have progressed.
And as for clothing... I can see a jacket for the humanoid Pokemon, and hats, but full outfits would be silly.
Mewtwo in a suit coat, top hat, and monocle is something I would want to see to be honest. XD

Taught Mewtwo Return. Now, he backhands his opponents. You pimp-slap them, Mewtwo. You pimp-slap them good.
Have yet to try it in his Mega form, but pimp-slapping is still amusing.
Jumping in late as usual...
Ribbons is just like a memory, of stuff. No in-game effects.
The ones given in hotels are always given to the lead Pokemon, and based in day of the week.
You get a ribbon for ribboning all the ST minigames, found in Cafe Ultimo in North Boulevard.

I should draw Mewtwo wearing his ribbons. XD
You should draw Mewtwo in a tux with tophat, cane and monocle... With all the ribbons pinned to the front. 8D
Oh god yes. XD He has two ribbons so far; an Effort Ribbon and--strangely--a Smile Ribbon.
Because Mewtwo is very happy.
Wrap your head around that. :P
Ugh... My brother's starting his game over and is eating up ALL MY FODDER to save his mons.

Maybe he hasn't grasp the concept of you enjoying from feeding and rubbing him. XD
Also, get close to Cthulhu!
Is there anything else I can do in this game after elite 4? I find that some of the post game events seem a bit short. Have all the gen. games post-game events been short?
- Already did the Looker agency.
- Went through Friend Safari couple of times.
- Did Battle Mason on that island.
- Defeated rival 2 or 3 times.
- Got the ring upgrade.
I don't think I've found/seen all the pokemon in Kalos yet, but I don't think I'm going to try that. That seems like it would take too long.
- Still haven't caught Zygarde yet. Though judging from everyone elses experience, throwing multiple pokeballs just to catch it seems kind of a waste. I might try again if I ever find/win a Master Ball or something.
- Still haven't caught the legendary bird.
- I can't find a way to get under 00:10 seconds for the puzzle swapping minigame in Poke-Ami to get 5 stars and to get the rest of the difficulty settings. I think last I checked, still just up to normal difficulty, or something on this one.
- I fiddled a little more on Trainer PR Videos. Nothing much I can do with this since it's not fully customizable. Limited to a list of options there. Meh.
- Haven't bought any new clothes for my own trainer. I was never into player customization, since it doesn't effect game play.
Besides catching more pokemon, and the Pokemon Bank, doesn't seem like there's much else to do. I feel like I'm almost getting bored with it now. I know there's some more things I could do here, but i don't know what kind of effort i want to put into the rest.
Though I could try battling someone online or something one day, but I really don't want to see any one in my party go out. ;^;
Since Tile Puzzle is all I play, I'll fill you in on that one.
To unlock other modes, play Normal. Get at least four stars in it. Then, play Hard and get at least four stars to unlock Unlimited.
My fastest time in Normal is about 00:12, and my current fastest time in Hard is 00:34. Haven't touched Easy since unlocking Normal, and I've gone back to it just to memorize it enough for Unlimited.

Crap, and here I thought I was done with my clothes shopping...
I'll be hunting for more ribbons and TMs. And playing the lottery.
Trying to catch Articuno now.
Only 1 HP left, and asleep. Dusk Balls... HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Pierce will False Swipe Zapdos and I'll spam Ultra Balls. I have thirty. I can spare a few.
Caught, and it took 8 Dusk Balls.
Wasn't too bad.
Serebii has compiled some of the shiny Pokemon in their Pokedex, and I have to say besides maybe Froakie it's pretty dynamic than a few past generations. I'm looking at you Garchomp.

Well....... At least it's not as bad as face swapping (http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/650333-pokemon). -u-'
Actually that's hilarious.
don't knock the Pokemerge.
EDIT: actually the link you posted is kinda dumb.
Pokefusion (http://pokemon.alexonsager.net/) is much better.
Anyway.........
Finally caught that freggin Zygarde this time..... First time today, tried with Shedinja, and the rest 5 of my party. Ultimate failure. Used up too many different pokeballs. I finally caught it after 20 something attempts at throwing all those pokeballs. I just decided to restart, and save up on pokeballs.
Second time after a restart, I caught it, came up with a better strategy with Mewtwo. Just kept using Mewtwo's Barrier and Recover, after I hit Zygarde until its HP was in the red. This was to make sure there was enough turns in battle for me to use a timer ball. Switched over to 6 of my other Pokemon, returned to Mewtwo. Then tried Timer Ball once or twice, didn't work. Tried using Luxery Ball, and some regular pokeballs then, still didn't work. Finally, tried one more Timer Ball, finally worked.
At least the last time, I still have a few more different types of pokeballs left over in my bag than I did the first time. But god it's a beast catching legendaries without a Master Ball. >_<
I used five Ultra Balls on Zygarde. :\
It took 10 Dusk Balls for me, if that. :\
Seriously. Cave. DUSK. BALL.
Yea, Dusk Balls, even in caves don't work 100% of the time. I think I tried a dusk ball once on Zygarde, it actually failed that one time.
It's interesting how that some of the pokemon in Amie don't look strait ahead. For example, some like Xerneas, and Charizard look like they're looking a bit right of you.

That one time? Well no [parasitic bomb] its [tornado fang]ing Zygarde it doesn't get caught easily, you gotta throw more balls at it. Dusk Balls work better in the caves than Ultra Balls, Timer Balls, that [parasitic bomb].
Does it really matter how it gets caught? The damage is done anyway. So if you're not going to say anything positive, then GTFO. :P
Wow. Just wow.
Seriously, when a new main series game comes out, learn about ALL the balls properties.

Good [tornado fang]ing riddance if you can't [tornado fang]ing learn to accept help. Its too hard to see "Dusk Ball works good in dark places." in the description?
Yeah, not gonna miss that.
That escalated quickly.
Anyway, I felt like experimenting and against all practical advice, I taught Return to Runaway. Replaced Psycho Cut with it. I may replace that later with something else, but for now, he's using that for wild Pokemon excursions.
One of those excursions (and hidden item hunts) took me back outside Santalune. Somehow, I missed the two preschool trainers out around the hedge mazes. So, Preschooler Mia, full of confidence, challenges me. Runaway is currently in the starting position. So, it was her level dinky Budew versus my level 100 Alakazam.
I say to Runaway, "let's make this mercifully quick," and he uses Return. Budew goes down like a sack of potatoes and Preschooler Mia's hopes and dreams have been effectively squashed.
I feel like such an evil, evil person for picking on such young trainers, but hey, she challenged me. :P
So, turns out that all (wild) pokemon which cannot breed (the Undiscovered egg group) are guaranteed 3 IVs.
Given the availability of baby pokemon within the first few routes of XY, they would make amazing male parents when evolved since Marill is Fairy + Water1 groups and Roserade is Fairy + Grass groups. I will have to check if Tyrogues from Friend Safari have 3 or 2 IVs...
I got Carpe Diem the Magikarp (love the nickname!) from the Magikarp conman. Prior to that, I had gone fishing and caught five Gyarados in a row. So, Antipathy, my female Hardy Gyarados was traded for Carpe Diem.
Not long after that, I decided to play with one of my Gyarados in Amie, so I dropped Atrocitus in.
Found his happy spot, too.
He likes his tongue rubbed.
Well, that escalated. Whatever though. On the other side, seems like Nintendo or Gamefreak has heard about the hacks and effective shut down all rank battles for time being. Cool that something is being done, maybe?
Xavier the Xerneas doesn't act as babyish as Zardoz the Zygarde. I also got out another Abra, Sarumon. Had some cute Abra playtime.
....Do I even want to know how many Abras you have?
Plenty and I can and will breed more.

No offense but are you going be doing that for the rest of the game? Then again Pokemon doesn't have the best post game if you don't want to do the Battle Maison like challenges or raise Pokemon for competitive use. :\
I'm not breeding them a lot, just every now and then, and mostly for trade. I plan to breed some of Runaway's stats, but that's about it. Mostly, I've been raising new teams.

I see, I just raise them up to level 50 or until they learn all the moves I want, like Iron Head for Aerodactyl at 57, since that's the level cap for the Battle Maison and online settings have an option for setting a cap of 50. The only reason I do the Maison is for buying items.
I hit up the Battle Chateau for monies. Currently, I'm raising a female Kadabra, so she'll need traded to evolve, and then I'll breed her with Runaway.

I should do that sometime just for the monies.
I plan to start raising my Absol a bit more. She's at a low level right now, so she'll be a benchwarmer until she can hold her own in battle. Mandrake, my Zoroark, will be doing some battling, soon. Most of my current team of HM slaves will be rotated out to make way for at least four new Pokemon, with Mewtwo and one of my other leveled Pokemon on for backup.
Pierce will soon be learning new moves and another Pokemon will be taught False Swipe for capture purposes.

For a Shiny no. For trying to get the right nature Pokemon when you don't have that Pokemon with the right Nature, or Ditto, that's bad luck.
Yeah, I have a Korean Hawlucha with mine at the daycare. I'm breeding them for a shiny.
And now little brother is borrowing my 3ds so he can play Y version because he doesn't have his own 3ds and my older brother's a selfish little [parasitic bomb].
I started explaining Pokemon breeding to my mom. Lost her immediately. XD
Explained shiny hunting, and shinies in general. The phrase 'black charizard' caught her attention really quick. XD

I was thinking trying a hazard setup with Galvantula with Sticky Web, Goodra with Gooey, and a Para-Flinch Togekiss. That sound good?
I tend to base my team around type spreads, since I don't EV train hardly at all. Runaway got some Super Training, so the Battle Girl at the workout cafe in Lumiose says he's ripped.
My Alakazam is "positively ripped." XD
She fainted at my Aegislash's ripped muscles.

That was like... A few days back. 8U
Hmm... Still... Maybe...
Hmm I don't know if Greninja or Heracross would fit in a Hazard setup. Perhaps I should wait until I can get my Milotic from the bank and put in my Escavalier in that team since his function is basically trapping. I'm worried about the Fire weaknesses though.
Aw yeah, my pay increased. Now I'm making $20,000 for room service and lost and found. Room service is super easy because I keep a notebook handy and I write everything down.
Time to go to the Battle Chateau for some free money!
SOON YOU WILL GET $50,000!!
... Le Wow is still being painful with Protect spam.
Have 2 stars down, just need the last star from Triple Battles.
... No way I'm wasting money at Sushi High-Roller.
Mewtwo earned his fourth ribbon today. I also filled out more of my Pokedex, going on a few capture sprees. Went and got my free money from the Battle Chateau, as well.
Runaway is doing fine with Return, but I'm considering replacing it with Sleep Talk.
Hit up some Friend Safaris for some Pokemon. Magmar took more balls than necessary to capture, and Pyroar spammed Endeavor, and then killed itself with Take Down. I went through three Pyroars before I captured one. One of the Safaris yielded an Ivysaur, so I caught one and named it Bushroot.
WOOT
Cleared Le Wow finally. Got all 3 stars~
Mewtwo is so proud with all his ribbons. I should take a picture. 8D
Tomorrow, as I looked at the time and holy [parasitic bomb], I was playing for that long?
Pokemon has that effect. *sage nods*
I had thirty-seven Ultra Balls (I buy in bulk), so I started using them frivolously. Caught a Druddigon in one, mainly because I was running out of regular balls. Pyroar got caught in a Premier Ball, since I have a bunch of those.
Today, I plan to teach Runaway Sleep Talk, then head out to the Pokemon Village, look for a Jigglypuff, and let it sing him to sleep so I can test the move.

He's so proud of his ribbons. XD
And while playing around, I discovered that I could use the touch screen without the stylus, so long as i wore gloves or used my sleeve. So, I tried petting Runaway... but ended up accidentally punching him. :(
He got four Puffs, several pets, and lots of rounds of playtime as an apology.
He needs more ribbons. :P
Currently EV-ing my Nincada.
I caught a Male Modest Ralts, and has max'd his EVs. HE WILL BE MY PERFECT CROSSDRESSING HUSBAND
i always use the touch screen without the stylus
but that's because i lost my stylus long ago
That explains how you accidentally punched your Tyrantrum three times in a row. :P
Does it register bare fingers, or do you need to cover your fingers?
It registers bare fingers just fine. And it's less because of using bare fingers and more because I have a few small scratches on the touch screen.
Time to play around!
...and drag my fingers so I don't accidentally punch Mewtwo in the gut.
I don't think he would like that very much. :P
Nincada's max'd too... Time to grind at the Battle Chateau!
I need to use Super Training more often. Only Runaway's benefitted from it, as I always default to grinding. I could get Mewtwo in Super Training, but he's leveled, so I doubt it will benefit him at all. We'll see.
Still got other Legendaries to EV, so I'll toss Zardoz and Xavier in there. Let them have some fun.
I have too many frikkin' 3DS games to play still, but I am checking into Pokemon to at least indulge my clothes shopping addiction. And my "partial team" is still pretty formidable if anyone wants a piece of me.
Meanwhile two Onix are lighting up the Poke Love Shack. I'll need to get back on that, and when I am done, hopefully somebody can bounce it for evolution's sake.
I could do that, so long as you bounce my Kadabra.
That sounded so dirty! 8D

You can ST even at lvl100!
At least that is what I'm led to believe, if you have not max your EVs by then.
EVERYONE INTO ST! *dumps team into ST*
And there is no way to avoid making "I'll bounce your Pokemon if you bounce mine" sound dirty.
Oh my... The Bounce Paralyzed me! 8D
Sakura bounced Runaway. 8D He remembers that he was happy.
I decided yesterday I wanted to get the rest of the Pokemon available in Friend Safari without having to go through all the friend code stuff. Got one or two things through Wonder Trade, but most were through GTS. Have everything but a Tympole right now. Parted with some good stuff, but stuff I can get from my White 2. I'm also probably one of the only people who traded their Legendary Bird. But if it's for the opposite mascot, sure.
I would've traded for an Articuno, but I already have one from previous games.
I should play with Runaway tonight.
I'm just trying to score a Reset bag in ST so I can fix up my Venusaur and Lapras' EVs.
I regret being out all day and being unable to participate in Operation Zubat Storm.

How many babies do you have now?
About a box full, but I usually just wonder trade them.
Gave Susan his Mega Stone. He is a glorious cross-dressing PokeTrap. His level is still in the thirties, so he'll be a benchwarmer during most of my grinding runs through the Grind Chateau of Free Money, but he can hold his own pretty well against some lower-level wilds.

Training up a Shedinja *gasp*.
Been staring into its backhole all this time.
My elegant PokeTrap is now at mid affection level. Susan is interested in the other Pokemon's scent.
My Poke-Husband already loves me to death.
And finally caught a Modest female Ralts.
Will ST her, then Amie her... Then... Grind her... And dump her on a Japanese male Ralts for some sexy time.
Too bad I'm going to bed right now, else I'd ask if you'll bounce my Kadabra. She's going to be my other PokeTrap.
There's always later. XD
Rest well~
I know there is no reason not to but i just cant use a thunder stone on my lvl 81 pikachu. It just wouldnt feel right.

Well I got Max Style now, seeing as it now cost $90k Poke dollars for the 3-Star Restaurant instead of $100k, but I need to double check my O-Powers. I think I got most of them already, but I haven't checked the South Boulevard area yet.
Thanks.
I had done my hotel job, then skated around until I swung in Introversion and saw him there. My style isn't max, as the Blastoisenite still costs $50,000.

Aye, me too when I found Mr. Bonding.
I guess he was getting impatient... To share. His love.

How much does it cost once it's max?
I did the Poke Ball trick and bought 200 Premier Balls, one at a time. Unless it was more than that.
$10,000 is the lowest it'll go.

I see, and I already see it as $10,000 for the Venusaurite. Do the stones cycle around or can you just buy one of them as a one-time thing?
Not sure, as the guy only offers the Blastoisenite to me. Might be based on what you chose as your second starter and may cycle after you buy one. That's my guess and I'm probably wrong.

Yeah I think that's supposed to happen, it would be a dick move if they didn't.
So it's only the three Kanto Pokemon Mega Stones you can buy from the guy?

By the way can you ONLY catch a Rotom on Tuesdays at the Lost Hotel?
I could try, given I have too much money to spend.
... But I already have the Blastoisinite. And Venusaurite. And Charizardite Y. 8D
Rotom is rare, just slightly a bit better on Tuesdays.

Well I could try it as well, they're $10k now.
So Rotom is simply EASIER to find on Tuesdays than other days, huh? Oh boy, back to hunting I go. So saving and soft resetting before the trash cans will make it easier was well to find Rotom, right?
Don't know if that works.
If they are like the Hidden Grottos in Gen5, where the encounter is preset, it will not work.
Hey, VC...
Have you bonded with Mr. Bonding for the last time, yet? In the cafe? By the counter? In front of all those patrons? 8D
Part of me is still waiting for him to show up again, particularly when he said he'll be back.
D:
Oh, he will be back... In Version Z...
Also, I think all the patrons in the cafe, including the owner, have bonded with Mr. Bonding...

Seems like, since I picked Charmander, the Blastoise and Venusaur Mega Stones are one-time only. I left the building and came back in but he's not selling them again unless I have to wait longer.

Yup, I got the last bond with Mr. Bonding the Hatching Power. I would be nice to see him again and ask how you're doing and such. I quite liked him.
By the way I finally got EXP. Power LV2 and Prize Money LV2 now for O-Powers so now I can start leveling up my Pokemon easier now at the Restaurant and at the same time earn even MORE Prize Money from the 3-Star Restaurant. Going to be a while to get the LV3 versions of them.
How many times do I have to use them to get to LV3?
I see you and Mr. Bonding have... bonded.

Use lvl2 30 times.
And my previous comment was with regards to Rotom, not the stones.
However, you should try asking the man on another day to see if he will sell the final starter stone.

30 times?! Is there a faster way of doing this? I just used the Prize Money LV2 on a Passerby so that's 29 more times for that, but it takes SO long to recharge the O-Powers.
And the Rotom thing, someone posted a video and it seems like the soft reset DOES work as the items in the Trash Cans do change as well as the Pokemon encounter.
I will look into this on the next day with the Starter Stones. Can you only get ONE Mega Stone for each Pokemon with a Mega Form?
Yes, only one of each stone.
As for O-Powers, giving is more beneficial than using yourself if you want it to level up. As for recharge times, just go out for a walk, and rake up 5000 steps. The recharging will drop from 4 mins, to just 1 min.
So, I take it the Mega Stones he's selling do cycle? Like I said, I'd only ever been offered the Blastoisenite. So, if I buy it, the Venusaurite will become available? Or do the stones cycle based on the day? I've been as yet unable to find anything on this, though I may simply not be looking in the right place.

You have to buy it first.

I see, that's why I'm giving it to others so I can speed up the level up for them as it cost loss. So it's takes 5000 steps? Is it best to use the bike at the Lumiose City's Gym area and circle around it over and over again to quickly get the 5000 steps (which I assume restores 1 O-Power Point).

I bought the Blastoise Mega Stone first and then the Venusaur Mega Stone became available after that. So yeah, it seems to cycle but does it cycle infinitely? Probably not so if I lose their Mega Stones forever because of a Pokemon attack then I can't get it back no matter what, right? Unless you're given a new one to replace the old lost one.
You only get one but you can't lose it, Attacks like Thief and the like only steal the item for the battle.
Alright, good to know. Thanks.
If my math is correct, there are 596 Pokemon that can be obtained in X and Y without cheating or importing. I now have 590 of them. Just have to raise up my new Togepi (for some reason I evolved my old one to a Togetic but never used the Shiny Stone, but this works out cause I wanna use a Togekiss on my team and I bred a better Togepi). I also still need Moltres data. As for the remaining four, I don't wanna grind for BP. It takes too long. I have 32 BP, which I believe I'll save to make a Porygon2.

It's not steps taken in the game, but the 3DS' internal pedometer that determines that iirc.
Also I believe your O power timer is always reset when you load your file. So you can save, soft reset, load, and do it again.

Actually I'm not even sure if they could be stolen in the first place, I think I read on TvTropes that they couldn't.

As far as items being stolen... If I recall, possibly during the Inverse Battle or somewhere, an opposing Pokemon used Thief and I still was able to use Mega Evolution regardless.

Posted on: December 09, 2013, 05:50:54 AM
OK, I just saved after using my O-Powers and soft reset the game. My O-Powers do NOT restore and it's back to 0 points to use. You might've been able to do that in Black and White, but here not so much.
Oh well, so far I got 3 times used for both Prize Money and EXP. Points LV2. 27 more to go.
Anyway after this (I got over $1.2mil Poke money) I will be breeding for my desired Pokemon team.
I just need to remember to use the darn things, which I never do. Also, taking the 3DS out for walks, which I don't do too often. I keep it in a small computer bag, and it's just clumsy to carry that around, and my pants pockets are often too small for it.
In terms of teams, mine is going through gradual changes, with a few static members as I rotate some out to level others. Susan is my lowest level, currently, so I keep some leveled members on hand to help him out. Runaway has a nice type spread in his moves, which I may keep, while Mewtwo may see some move changes to see what type spreads work best.
Runaway's best stat is his Attack, so he's a somewhat physical Alakazam, though I lean more toward Special Attack for his moveset, while Mewtwo gets more physical attacks to exploit the additional Fighting typing when he Megas.
I keep two HM slaves on the team for exploration, travel, and capture purposes, though Pierce's moveset will soon see some changes as I work on providing him with a type spread.
Time to for Prof Wily!
1. Mega Stones cannot be stolen. Things like Thief, Covet, Trick, Knock Off will fail. The damage is still there, but the secondary stealing fails. Same goes for the Plates when attached to Arceus. The only way to lose a Mega Stone is you being stupid and discarding it yourself.
2. As stated by Sato, steps is via the pedometer. I DID say take a walk.
3. Why save AFTER using the power? Of course it will not be replenished. If you save BEFORE using, then use, then reset, the charge will be as it is when you saved.
So, I want to give Mewtwo a decent multiple-target move. Currently, he knows Earthquake, but I think Bulldoze might be better for his Mega form. Thoughts?
Well... Bulldoze is good for lowering the targets' speed by one stage if it hits... I think Mewtwo is speedy enough... So... Go pure power with Earthquake.
Posted on: December 09, 2013, 16:38:18
Of course if we factor in double/triple battles... Have a Levitate/Flying partner/s. :P
Keeping Earthquake for POWAAAAAH UN-LIMIT-TED POOOOWWWWWAAAAAAAAAHHHH
I'll start searching my box for levitating partners, or just pair him with my Transport slaves (if it can learn Fly, it's on my team).
On an odd note... Mewtwo can learn Aerial Ace. I almost want to teach it to him for the lulz.
Malamar can too. As does Aegislash. :P
Malamar will totally learn Aerial Ace. I'm pretty happy with Mewtwo's current move setup right now, anyway. He has a nice type spread. Got him using Earthquake, Psystrike, Return, and Shadow Ball.
Runaway is doing damage with Energy Sphere, Dazzling Gleam, Psychic, and Charge Beam. He's doubly fabulous~
Still working on Susan's moveset, but he has a ways to go. I want to keep Heal Pulse around, in case I have to fish something out of a horde battle, particularly a Zangoose or something. I may teach him False Swipe, that way he can be used for capture purposes. Pierce is leveled, and he needs his moves changed around anyway. False Swipe will be the first to go.
Susan's Trap-Gardevoir right? If so, False Swipe is unreachable.
As for Heal Pulse... Healing hordes? D:
Bah, looks like Pierce will keep it a while longer until I find a suitable replacement.
As for hordes, I want it in case I encounter one of those weird hordes, with a bunch of Zangoose and a random Seviper mixed in, or Durants and a Heatmor. Apparently, the other Pokemon will attack the lone stranger, so I want to heal it so I can fish it out of the horde.
Currently, though, I'm looking for Trevenant hordes with a Sudowoodo mixed in.
Oh, for that purpose. Ok, true for for Zangoose/Seviper, and Heatmor/Durant. I think the Sudowoodo is safe amongst the ghost trees... I think.
Yeah, I'm not concerned about the Sudowoodo. But, just in case, I'll have Heal Pulse. Need to level Susan some more, though, so he can actually take on such a horde and stand being pecked at by lower-levels with a type advantage.

3. Why save AFTER using the power? Of course it will not be replenished. If you save BEFORE using, then use, then reset, the charge will be as it is when you saved.
But the O-Powers you used will be recorded in the game regardless? So I used it AFTER I save, soft rest, and use it again and the count is 2 instead of 1 towards O-Power usage?
That's irrelevant since if you save AFTER using the power, the charge will REMAIN AS IT WAS
doing the whole SAVE - RESET - REUSE is the same exact thing as USE - REUSE
the level of charge remaining after BOTH PROCESSES will be EXACTLY THE SAME
therefore your little method to save and reload is pointless

I though he said you can continue to raise the O-Power level by saving before using it and then soft reset to repeat the process. o~O
He said what I said.
Quote from: Mirby on December 09, 2013, 07:09:06 PM

Huh? But I thought you said that it's redundant and that the O-Power would reset if I simply save before using it and then soft reset so it won't raise as well. Use it before saving, O-Power 1 Point, then soft rest -> lose the point and goes back to 0 points added to one of the powers when you load the save file so instead of 29 times you need to get LV3 it's still 30 times you need to use the O-Power. Isn't that what you said?
Did I misunderstood something???
You misunderstand everything.
I'll try to explain it.
So, you have a fully-charged O-power that you want to use, let's say it's Hatching Power. You have this nice Hatching Power sitting there, just got it, it's new and sparkly and fully-charged. But, you have a backlog of eggs to hatch. "Well," you say in my voice because I don't know what you sound like, "I'll just use the Hatching Power and then save-scum to recharge it!"
So, you go to use the Hatching Power. "But wait," you say, "If I use it now, then save, it won't recharge with save-scumming!"
Then, you have an idea.
"I know! I'll save right now, BEFORE I do anything!"
You save the game, then you select the Hatching Power. You go for a bike ride for three minutes. The Hatching Power wears off.
"Now, I'll soft-reset without saving."
You close the game, then open it again.
"I should see if my Hatching Power is charged, yet..."
So, you go and look at it. Lo and behold, it is fully-charged because you had saved BEFORE you even touched it! Granted, that egg you just hatched before closing the game will need to be hatched again, but hey! You can still level up your Hatching Power by save-scumming like this! Thus, all is right in the world.
Happily, you spend the next hour and a half repeating the process twenty-nine more times.
"Awesome! It leveled up! And all I had to do was save-scum!"
You decide to hatch an egg or two, then do another save-scum session like the first one once the Hatching Power charges up. At this rate, you'll have a fully-leveled Hatching Power in about a day! Awesome!
The only thing that I don't really understand is how it retains how many uses of the O-Power you've garnered if you reset after using it.
I'm guessing that saves automatically or something.
That's my guess, along with how it automatically saves trades, even if you had to reset for some reason after the trade and before you could save. Not sure if that auto-save applies to eggs, though.

Okay. It was just an assumption on my part that it would reset. Cause I have saved my game and exited with less than full O power before. I never turned my game back on immediately, but when I did eventually resume my game, I did have full O Power. So maybe it always has to recharge in real time?
I know for a fact that if you put it to sleep mode by closing the 3DS, any O-Powers that you have activated are suspended, and will only resume countdown when you open the 3DS again. However, even in sleep mode, the O-Power points continue to recharge in real-time.
For example.
You activated Hatching Power lvl3, and then immediately close the 3DS. Assuming your recharge rate is 4, after 6 minutes in real-time, when you open your 3DS again, your O-Power points have fully recharged, but your Hatching Power lvl3 still is counting down from 3 minutes.

That's more clearly, thanks! I understand now.
So I simply have to wait until the O-Powers are done being used then soft reset otherwise it wouldn't work?
And to Mirby, you mentioned it was "pointless" about the saves so I assumed that the O-Powers would remain the same no matter what if I save before or after and would be better to use the O-Power normally. That's what I thought you meant.

EVIDENCE AS IN REAL FEET
I bought five Fire Stones. I will equip five Eevees with them. Some lucky kids will be getting Flareons for Christmas. And level 16 Alakazams once I raise up some Abras.
Trying out the new Pokemon Global Link.
... The server should stop being so busy.
you can only use game sync once every hour
if you try to use it more often it'll say the server is too busy
So, I was in the Free Money Grind Chateau, and for fun, I felt like Mega-ing Runaway. As I actually took the time to carefully consider a move (rather than throw whatever at my opponent because of a massive level advantage), I noticed Runaway idle in his Mega form (second round, didn't switch Pokemon).
His right hand dropped down below the screen and did something I couldn't see. There are three possible things that he could've done in that area.
Either Runaway tugged at his beard, scratched his foot...
...or scratched his crotch.
Posted on: December 11, 2013, 06:23:15 PM
Okay, I snapped a really quick picture (hence motion blur and general crappiness) just as Runaway started to do that... thing.
(http://img35.imageshack.us/img35/6818/oc30.jpg)

Crotch. It was diffidently that area. The beard tickles it and therefore, the scratching.

Even just to withdraw the items I exchanged?
This is what happened. 8pm Game Sync, PokeMiles transferred. Exchanged some items. Game Sync within the same hour to withdraw. Busy. Could only withdraw at 10pm.
Also didn't know that once transferred into PGL, those PokeMiles stay there forever.
I miss the old PGL.

Honestly since items are significantly cheaper in the PGL than with the dude in Lumiose I don't mind the PokeMiles staying there.

Makes sense, though he really should save the scratching for when he's in his Ball. No one needs to see that.
Not sure if the Audino there is blissfully unaware, or enjoying what she sees. 8D
The Audino is taking it like the HP sponge it is. 8D
I should Mega my other Pokemon, let them idle, and see what they do. Though, I hazard they'll just flex, or bow, or curtsy, nothing as... interesting as Runaway's crotch-scratching.
Not necessarily that it's better or more enticing, just that it's... interesting.
Well, I know Mega Gardevoir yawns in idle. Yes, s/he is bored of the pwnage s/he serves.
Perhaps s/he'd rather see Runaway scratch himself? 8D
I think all Mewtwo does is flex or something. Same with Lucario. Haven't seen Charizard idle, yet.
I want to put them all on a bench. It's a recipe for a goofy scenario. Mewtwo and Pavorotti are having a macho contest, flexing to see who can impress Susan, but Susan just yawns because he's bored and those two don't realize that he's got Poke Balls, too. Meanwhile, Runaway scratches himself.
Fund this. XD

Yeah, agreed.
Also yes, even to pull items out. Still, it's better than once every 3 hours as it was when the games launched.
Hmm... I hope it will improve in the future. Also, there's no word of the Dream World returning right?
I hope the Dream World returns. I want to tuck my Pokemon in at night. :3
The animation was funny in Gen5.
Master Hand picks up the Pokemon from the box, then dumps it onto a bed. A thick blanket falls down from the sky, and lands right on top of the Pokemon, covering it completely.
THE POKEMON IS NOT SNORING IT IS SUFFOCATING UNDER THE BLANKET
And considering Runaway's sinus trouble, he'd be sure to suffocate. D:
Yeah Dream World is pretty much confirmed to not return. It was mainly to get rare Pokemon with their hidden abilities (possible in-game in X/Y via Friend Safari) and to grow berries (possible in-game in X/Y via the farm, among other things)
So the two main reasons for Dream World are gone. No need for it.
Poo. Oh well...
I'll just go through the Free Money Grind Chateau and let Runaway horrify the other Trainers as he scratches himself in public.
THAT SCRATCHING IS NOT HELPING YOUR REPUTATION IN ANY WAY, RUNAWAY
Hmm I want to set up a Hazard Team but I'm having trouble with what I want to have on it along with the fact that I worry about having too many common weaknesses especially Rock Type attacks.
So far I want Galvantula, Togekiss and Goodra for the team, Galvantula for Sticky Web, Togekiss for Para-Flinch and Goodra for Gooey. I wanted my Escavalier to be there but he provides another Fire weakness, I was also considering Gilscor with Poison Heal but since I have Togekiss and Galvantula he would make half my team weak to Rocks.
It's a conundrum that I don't know how exactly to solve.
Technically, Rock is neutral on Gliscor...
Ground resists Rock, while Flying is weak to Rock... So they cancel each other, Rock is neutral damage.

I seriously had no idea Ground resisted Rock, that just never occurred to me at all especially since Rock is neutral to Rock.
Now you know!
As for your team... If you really fear weaknesses, just go coverage. For instant... Goodra can tank Fire, and deal back SE Water. As for Rock... Hmm...
I'm still really tempted to put Escavalier in there.
... I know! Chain breed Drill Run onto Escavalier!
Quote from: Dr. Meowly II on December 13, 2013, 02:14:52 AM
... I know! Chain breed Drill Run onto Escavalier!
Nah I don't really need that since Gliscor has Earthquake and Escavalier is so slow that it wouldn't be worth it.
Besides the job of Escavalier is to stall other Pokemon with Toxic and Infestation and kill Fairies since he has quad resistance to them plus he has Megahorn for STAB. The reason that Escavalier has this job specifically because his only weakness is Fire and he has bulk on both defenses which not a lot of Pokemon have.
I would normally not even put Galvantula on such a team but with Sticky Web it can function, I would probably have to resort to making it a lead and Focus Sashing it. I would like something that can have Stealth Rock if I can.
Also need to decide on a Water Type, though I'm tempted to bring in my Milotic from Soul Silver. I'm also heavily considering Tyranitar.
Technically, Fairy resist Bug, so stick with Iron Head.
Quote from: Dr. Meowly II on December 13, 2013, 02:39:05 AM

Well yeah of course he has Iron Head, he wouldn't kill Fairies if he didn't. Also [tornado fang] I can't get Tyrantarite in Y!
I use ubers, so my team would be banned. 8D
Stay away from Tyranitar. He's powerful and all, but that Sand Stream can still work against you, even if it's restricted to 5 turns now. Plus the way you hyped up Escavalier with STAB Megahorn sounded like that was your way to kill Fairies. XD
I'll have to check Smogon and see if Runaway is banned. Knowing my luck, he probably is! XD
Nah, he's at most a Glass Cannon. Not sure on Mega though... Then again, he scratches himself.
HE SHOULD BE BANNED TO SAVE THE PRESCHOOLERS
They didn't even see his Mega form. They were flattened by Runaway using a weak-ass move, which I later replaced.

No Megahorn is to deal with everything else. Besides if I do consider Tyranitar I'll try to wait until the other half of my team that can be hurt by Sandstorm dies. I honestly like him because I think he can function on the team and has Stealth Rock and he's kind of unique.

The only Mega that they are actually considering banning is Mega Gengar and probably Mega Blaziken because they think Speed Boost Blaziken is almighty so therefore Mega Blaziken is God.
And technically Mewtwo is not banned by Smogon rules, he's just Uber.
Mega Blaziken is ARCEUS!?
WHAT ARE THOSE PEOPLE SMOKING
ARCEUS IS ARCEUS, MEGA BLAZIKEN IS MEGA BLAZIKEN
Ah, okay.
On the team front, I taught Pierce Rock Smash, which replaced False Swipe. That was mainly out of necessity as I needed to smash some rocks, and dumping my HM slave into the box wasn't an option. I also needed to keep Mewtwo out due to his Shadow Ball, and Runaway stuck around to deal with dragons.

Okay actually they just quick banned Blaziken and Deoxys-N from X and Y OU, whatever a quick ban means. They are still considering quick banning Gengarite because you can't prepare for Mega Gengar since he has Shadow Tag. At least that's what they are saying but honestly I never cared about what Smogon thinks, Florges is amazing.
Can't prepare for Mega Gengar? That's like saying you can't prepare for Wobbuffet! Oh wait. Wobbuffet's BANNED too.
Anyways, a random question on the Champions.
Blue, Lance, Steven, Wallace, Cynthia, Alder, Iris, Diantha.
How would you rank them all?

Quote from: Dr. Meowly II on December 13, 2013, 03:09:24 AM
... Hmm. I'm outdated. NO MATTER
In fact Wobuffet was only banned from unofficial tournaments until Gen 4 because of the scenario of having 2 Wobuffets facing each other in battle and having Leftovers would result in an endless battle. This changed in Gen 4 because they changed the mechanics of Shadow Tag so if 2 Pokemon have Shadow Tag and are facing each other either one can switch out or flee and they changed Struggle so it wouldn't be healed by Leftovers forever.
And thus, therein lies a controversial way to deal with Mega Gengar. *sage nods*
Just bought the Blastoisenite for $10,000.
"This is one of the special power stones that I squeeze and jiggle and warm in my own hands!"
...Didn't need to know that, thanks.
Maybe he's related to Mr. Bonding.
OR A TRAUMATIZED VICTIM
I also have a hypothesis, which I plan to confirm later. I noticed that once I reached $1,000,000.00, the Blastoisenite went from $50,000 to $10,000.
I'm going to check the seller about the Venusaurite, see if your amount of pocket money makes a difference in terms of how much it costs. If you need to have $1,000,000 in order for it to cost $10,000, then we know the secret to max style.
Ehh... Sorry to bust the Bubble, because I know I had 4 million in my pocket, but at the time, it was still $50,000.
Blah. Well, max style is still something I can work on deciphering.

Okay I'll breed an extra since I don't really care about IVs for the Goodra since I'm not trying to max it's speed.
I might have one, let me check...
And if I do (I can spare it because I'm breeding more), I'll send it right over. Though, I'll also want Cagliostro bounced at some point, so Cagli for something, then Gooey Goomy for Cagli again.
And speaking of traps, I recall sending an Abra breeding pair your way. You should have a female named Fay Presto. SHE COULD BE YOUR OTHER POKE-TRAP 8D
My friend is going to give me a Tyrunt with the Tyranitarite for a Shellder since I need to get Stealth Rock to Larvitar with a Tyrunt specifically. Pretty fair trade.
My bad, I don't have a Gooey Goomy on hand. I have an Egg I haven't hatched yet, though. Want a surprise? 8D
Lol the suspense. XD
And yea, you did give a me a breeding pair. One of them is a Kadabra now. Can't remember which. XD
Also, thanks Sakura! No one wants Spd on Goodra anyways. It's to take hits and Gooey the opponent!
But what to trade in return... And for Cagli too...

I usually go for five, I usually get six by freak accident.
I'm still hunting for Shinies and for Zapdos. Haven't had a random encounter for a while. I may return to the usual haunts where I've found him.
Load up the Town Map, and see where Zapdos is. If you can bike over to its next location, you usually can track it down easy.
You can track him via the map? Huh. Didn't realize that. What should I look for?
... Oh wait. *facepalm*
Via the PokeDex, not the Town Map. Go to the Coastal Kalos Dex, then select Zapdos if you have seen it once. The MAP in the PokeDex will show you where it is. God, I'm stupid.
Ah, okay. That makes more sense. Thanks!
NEVER Fly to its current position, it will then Fly away to a different direction. Just cycle,
If it's too far to cycle too, you can Fly, but try to keep as much distance.
For example, if you are at Route 7, and Zapdos is at Route 18, you can try to Fly to Dendemille Town. Then check the Dex again. If it's still at Route 18, cycle. Else, try again.
Stalking Zapdos now...

Bad news, Wily. You need to get PokeTransporter with Pokemon Bank, and you have to go through the eShop to get them.
However, there's nothing saying you can't trade your Pokemon from BW(2) to someone else, have them use the Transporter, then trade them back. A bit of a roundabout way, but still makes it possible to get yer mons to X/Y.
Since the only Pokemon I really want to transfer over is my Deino... It's not too bad.
... But that means changing my region settings for eShop again. ARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Thankfully I doubt I'll have difficulty paying the annual fee of FIVE BUCKS A YEAR.
That's odd it says the Pokemon Bank ignores the Region Lock but the Transporter doesn't?

Once I get the Bank, I may start chain-breeding for Shinies. I'll have the space to do so. Though, would I be able to use the Bank in Wonder Trade, or would I have to have the Pokemon in the Box?
I also need to make a NNID.
Once you do I believe it locks the region in place, its either that or it does that when its linked to a Wii U.
That of course means you lose any other-region currency and the ability to access any other regional eShop but your own.
To the US its not a big deal since we have just one eShop accessible, its only a hazard for others who can access multiple eShops.
... Thanks for the heads up.

On a separate note... Waiting for overworld rain.

Is the sky cloudy? If it's cloudy, give it a few minutes.
As for the Youtube link, I hit up the channel and watched it there.
Well, I'm alternating between Laverre City and Route 14, since I always see it rain there.
AND GUESS WHAT
It's not raining when I want it, but rains when I don't want it. 8|
It always rains in Cyllage for me. Keep watch for cloudy skies; rain is sure to follow.
I have never seen it rain in Lumiose. I find this weird.
Because Lumiose is too bright.
On a more in-game reason, it only rains in certain places.
Route 8, 14, 21, Ambrette, Couriway, Cyllage, Laverre and Kiloude.
Suddenly... Hurricane.
With how flimsy those houses look (and who was the genius to build a house on a sandbar off the coast of Cyllage?), a hurricane would wipe the town right off the map.
Well, I see clouds rolling by at Route 8.
I'll hang around there.

But the houses are sturdier than they look.
Just look at those houses at Geosenge Town when the ultimate weapon activated.
THEY TOPPLE IN ONE PIECE
They've got the structural strength of a motor home. I've seen smaller ones topple like that and still be in relatively one piece.
Also, lol at Geosenge not bothering at all to rebuild. "We got a big ol' sinkhole now!"
It's the new tourist attraction. As are the toppled houses.
Why fix it when it aren't broke? 8D
Still nothing at Route 8, the clouds just... Roll by.
Give it a few minutes. How cloudy is it? Is the sky all gray?
... How can I see? D:
The only sky out of all those places where I can see the sky is Couriway... And it was blue.
Get into a random wild encounter and you can see the sky. If it's all gray and cloudy, rain is soon to come.
Lots of clouds... But blue sky.

It won't rain, then. If the sky were dreary and gray, then it will rain in a few minutes. Try some other locations and look for a sky covered in gray clouds.

Not really, but most definitely irritating for those who battle competitively. Doesn't hurt to download the patch anyway.
By knowing your opponent's movesets, as well as knowing what they chose, it's literal cheating.
Oh I see.
Anyway I need to download it as I couldn't connect Online to see who was online so I can give O-Powers to or see if their Friend Safari was updated.
Well you need to download it to connect online at all now. It's a requirement.
Hm... Not sure if I like this Surprise Mulch. It makes my Berries grow at vastly different rates, even when planted at the same time. Hope I can still get some mutants...

Was hunting for a female Zoroark in the Pokemon Village... Caught a bunch of Dittos instead.
Including one Modest, and one Adamant.
Looks like I'll be heading to Winding Woods and the Pokemon Village in search of Shinies... and a horde encounter with a Sudowoodo.
Caught my female Zoroark.
Off to Victory Road to catch Zweilous... And if possible, Hydreigon.
I've only found Zweilous. Druddigons hide there, though. And Skarmory, that tanky dick who took more balls than necessary to capture.
Yea, Hydreigon is encountered just like Skarmony, except quite rarely.
I have caught a male Zweilous, with my Modest Synchro Gardevoir in front, so I hope it is a Modest one. Trying to find a female one now.
Looks like I need to go find one, throw fifteen Ultra Balls at it, and name it Hydra.
LOL, Hydra's gonna be rarer than Skarmony. Unless you can real lucky.
Well, my luck with rares has been pretty decent thus far, encountering rarer Pokemon pretty quickly. For Skarmory, that was the second Pokemon that swooped down on me. And I've seen dozens of Zoroarks in the Village and Winding Woods. Seen quite a few Absols, and my Dunsparce was my first find, even though it's relatively rare. Also, I've captured at least fifteen Abras. They're rare finds, too.
*salutes* GOOD LUCK
And since this happened... I've caught five Gyarados in a row. How common are these?
They are common.
Annoyingly common at that.
Try aiming for Crawdaunt or Sharpedo. They are the rares with Super Rod where Gyarados can be found.
Looking up some moves. I should start raising my Seviper so she can use Belch.
It's such a great move.

"Shut up and feed me."
You heard the 'mon, FEED HIM
I did! I fed him, then pet him, then played with him, then fed him, then pet him, and he was finally satisfied. Mewtwo is really demanding! XD
You should name him... Audrey II. 8D
I named my Carnivine that.

Yeah I would have liked a Mew, or a Manaphy, or a Shaymin, or something other than Celebi.
To be honest, I'm happy it's Celebi. Although Manaphy does sound nice since the only way is via Ranger egg.
I'd have preferred Mew since I have like 2 Celebi's and 2 Jirachi's.
But I like Celebi! XD
From the way they announced, I take it that the Celebi is available on Day One?
Pretty much. I think he's available till Sept actually.
As long as you access before the end of September 2014. So first access up to that point, presumably.

You probably can't, since you need to use Pokemon Link to retrieve it, which is in the menu

Why's that?
Unobtainable.
Only japanese Emerald got Old Sea Map. And Azure Flute I shouldn't have to explain.

I was able to use a hacked Arceus to activate the SinJoh Ruins event so I'm wondering if it shows up as hacked.
Were its stats identical to the one Nintendo distributed? Was it Fateful Encounter? Cause I think that would be the requirement for that. For example, I was given a shiny Arceus by a friend. It said it was caught on some random route. And it definitely didn't trigger Sinjoh ruins.

It was a faithful encounter at least.
Still apprehensive about the Arceus.
An event Arceus (with "Fateful encounter") and the Azure Flute Arceus (location marked as Hall of Origin) trigger Sinjoh Ruins individually. You can go back with the other one and re-enter the chamber.
I think I'm going to start leveling up my Growlithe, Luxray, and Bisharp.
Is your Bisharp named Pierce? 8D
I plan to start leveling my Ivysaur soon, after Susan is leveled. My team is mostly HM slaves and two helpers, so it's been largely static with maybe three rotating members.
I named it Blade after Tekkaman Blade. Haha, she actually has one of my more boring names! :V
Ah, you're raising a caught one. Pierce was the in-game trade. He's fully-leveled and just hangs around to cut down trees and smash rocks. Ebon Hawk, my Fearow, has taken over False Swipe duties.
Blade is one that I bred.
Ah.
...That reminds me, I need to bounce my Kadabra at some point, probably after Susan's leveled.
We can bounce. Kadabra-Kadabra bouncing. During the weekend.
Also, my trap Gardevoir has Giga Impact instead of Hyper Beam now. 8D
A weekend full of bouncing! 8D
I haven't changed Susan's moveset too much, as I want him to keep Heal Pulse for inevitable horde murders just to fish out that one Pokemon.
My female Garde blasts, while my trap hits hard.
Oh yeah. 8B
I need to buy more TMs. TIME TO GO SHOPPING!
As for my traps... Cagliostro is Toxic while Susan is FABULOUS~
I plan to mate Cagli with Runaway, see if I can pass along some of his assets.
I have all the TMs, sans the ones that you need to exchange using BP at the Battle Maison. Although I did went ahead to exchange for Steel Wing for my Salamence.
As for Runaway assets... FABULOUS~
His offspring must be Bold!
Then get Runaway to hold the Everstone!
Oh, he will, he will. He can squeeze, jiggle, and warm that Everstone with his own hands. 8D
... such a vivid description
That's what the guy at the Stone Emporium did to the Mega Stones he sells! D:
Ohshi-
All those scarred Venusaurs, Charizards, and Blastoises. D:
Can't you disinfect the stones? :\
Well... DID YOU!?
I dunked them in bleach.
I never bought them. 8D
I bought them both. Bought the Blastoisenite once it hit $10,000, and the next day, bought the Venusaurite for the same price.
So he does rotate to let you get the other 2.
Posted on: December 20, 2013, 20:59:29
I'll be online for bouncing if needed.
Gonna Masuda a Shiny Ralts now.
So after great debating, I am going to try to make two teams: A Fire based teams and a water based team. Who and who should be on what times, I do not know, but it is going to be fun making 12 Perfectish Iv'd Pokemon.
Out of curiosity, are we going to be having our usual RPM pokemon style tournament?
I'd like to, yeah!
Still training Marmalade, and waiting for the Togepi to evolve so I can breed Togepis.

I bet it will be sometime after the holidays then. Personally, I am waiting for the Bank to open up to get certain Pokemon from my older versions. I want my Whimsicott. It's a whimsical pokemon that you can't help, but want to hug.
40 Ralts later... Still no Shiny. To Masuda some more!
Marmalade why is your experience gain so low, is this the curse of Goomys?

That's why I gave her a Lucky Egg, and max Affection. Way more bearable. XD
As for my Ralts, I just want Shiny. It will be Modest, so that's fine enough.
....I forgot to give her a Lucky Egg, no wonder it's taking forever! But she's at 32 right now.
8 more to Sliggoo then. And thn 10 more plus stupid overworld rain for Goodra!
Found a horde of Murkrow and caught one thinking it had Prankster, but it turned out it just had a Timid nature.
I need to Masuda my Hawlucha some more. Perhaps Masuda some Froakie. I have a German Froakie.
Quickie, wanna Bounce? 8D
Sure, give me a few minutes.
Now I have an Alakazam... TIME TO OPEN HER SKULL
D:
Runaway is out in Amie. He might drop by and talk about scandalous things.
Hmm... Not at the moment.
Posted on: December 21, 2013, 14:55:27
61 Ralts... Still trucking along!
Think about all the children who will get a Ralts for Christmas via Wonder Trade!
I should do that for all the Hawluchas kids will get on Christmas!

I pushed my female lvl100 Gardevoir on him, and... You know the outcome. 8D
I should go drop Runaway off at the Love Shack with his new mate. 8D
If I find that I'll only get hate sex from those two, then I'll have to have The Talk with Runaway. I know that the human egg group is named after humans, but I don't think it will work out, Runaway! D:

Who says Pokemon eggs are laid? They always say they don't know how the eggs got there.
Even though the Breeder is staring INTO the daycare pen.
Either way, I don't think I'm compatible. :c
Runaway begs to differ. 8D
*sigh*
Guess there's no point in trying to put it off any longer...
TIME TO CHECK MYSELF INTO THE DAYCARE
HAVE A FUN TIME
Runaway and Cagliostro lit up the Love Shack while I took Susan through the Battle Chateau. I also let Mewtwo Mega Evolve in battle against Siebold, had him use Return, and watched him KICK OTHER POKEMON IN THE FACE.
Afterward, I stopped by and picked up Runaway and Cagli and their new offspring. Now, I'm going to bed. Hatching the new baby tomorrow...
Togepi finally evolved, to the love shack!
The air is filled with the sounds of Pokelove... 8D
Got the Togepi I needed now I'm getting money to buy it vitamins.
For fun, I gave Cagliostro the Alakazite so she could Mega Evolve. She did just that and grew a luxurious beard. She is so manly!
Then I gave it back to Runaway. I might raise up a couple more Synchronize Abras and go hunt for a few more and set Runaway up for stud service again.
I finally got the Venusaurite to $10000.
Prior to it reaching that price, did you have $1,000,000? I noticed that once I hit that amount, the Blastoisenite went down to $10,000. I hit that amount again within a day or so, then went to get the Venusaurite and it was $10,000.
Let me check the price of the Charizadite Y tomorrow.

Not that anyone would care, but I took a screen cap anyway. :P
Holy crap!
The most I've done was 27 seconds on Hard in the Tile Puzzle.
FEAR MARMALADE THE GOOEY GOODRA, FEAR HER WRATH! :W
Fear... Runaway's stud service? 8D
94 Ralts... Still trucking!
Finally able to find someone with butterflies in their safari, and caught a Beautifly. It's so, adorable in poke-amie! ^_^
Though it's funny when it's sleeping, floating in the air with its eyes looking wide open. XD

I'm not looking forward to when I finally start chain-breeding my Hawlucha. :\
A lot of the time is luck.
Others in this thread have done it under 2 boxes.
Hopefully I can have a Shiny in under two boxes, as I'm none too keen on filling up my PC with Hawlucha babies.
Once I get the Bank, though, chain-breeding all the way!
Okay I need to ask something. On a Hazard Team with a Paraflinch Togekiss, Sticky Web Galvantula, Gooey Goodra, a Poison Heal Gilscor that is meant to stall the hell out of everything and Toxic, and Escavalier that is a mixed wall that has Infesation and Toxic, what kind of Nature and EV spread should I give a Mega Tyranitar and maybe Attack suggestions.
Bulk up on his sp def... Go Careful, since that cuts sp ATT to add to sp def. As for EVs... I have this idea of 252 HP, 128 Def, 128 Sp Def. Moveset wise... Iron Head, Earthquake... Rock Slide/Stone Edge... ... ... Dragon Dance?
Posted on: December 23, 2013, 15:01:42
... I might try this myself.
I'd like him to have Stealth Rock.
I WILL TRY THIS ONE THEN
I think I'll axe the Dragon Dance since his Speed is kind of bad.

Touche, my friend. Seriously though, just be prepared for sand based teams. They are into the whole stalling/setting up traps/destroying your traps thing.
I should some day put together a decent team. Though, compared to all the Pokemon bred for teams, my teammates are wild-caught losers.
You can still EV-train them!
Like I did! XD
Well, Runaway got some EV training and I let Mewtwo play in ST for a bit. I've maxed out Runaway's defense, so he's a pretty decent wall. His Nature helped out with that one, and more ST raised his lowered attack. Mewtwo would benefit from some more attack raising, since he's using Return.
I'd like to use Anne Bonney for more than just a Surf/Waterfall/Strength slave, so I may work on STing her. Once Ebon Hawk is leveled, too, I plan to start working on another Fly slave. May pull out Ray Charles, my Zubat.
Unfortunately the EVs in Defense doesn't really benefit it at all since his Defense is really [acid burst] poor, and I mean really [acid burst] poor. If it were me I would have raised Runaway's Special Defense and Speed since his Special Attack is already amazing. But that's just me.
Also noticed I have a lot of HP EV trading to do in the future, oy vey.
This is why I usually don't do EV training and usually don't battle competitively; because I suck at it. XD

It's really not that hard if you know what you're doing.
I look at the Pokemon's stats, look for a nature that lowers the attacking stat that is already balls and one that either raises a defense, speed or on occasion the other attack stat, if I'm raising Speed I would want a max Speed IV along with the Nature, which is Alert to Sounds plus Timid or Jolly, have babies with all that and decide what I want to EV from there.
So what stat does "hates to lose" raise?
Quote from: Quickman on December 24, 2013, 12:20:48 AM
So what stat does "hates to lose" raise?
That is a Characteristic which is an IV which you need a perfect in order to max the stat if you want to max the stat with the highest IV being 31. In this case that Characteristic is for Special Defense and it's 28 which is the lowest for the Special Defense Characteristic but if it didn't have the Characteristic for Special defense it would be lower.
Okay, so Runaway's Bold/Hates to lose combo isn't half bad. Basically, both attributes boost the stats that he has the most deficit in.
Hence why I tend to stick with neutrals. More fun to EV. 8D
What does Mischievous affect?
Nevermind, found it. Hm...
Natures are the most important thing though since they affect your stats by 10% and EVs can give you a max of 63 bonus points, but I don't know how many points IVs give.
Quote from: Dr. Meowly II on December 24, 2013, 01:00:27 AM

But that's wrong, you can't properly max out a stat that way - it's no fun at all.
It is fun for me though, and has stuck since Gen3. XD
I had decided to make my first ever 5/6 IV pokemon team. As a result, I have spawned about 50 Dratinis. The patience needed to do it is really hard.
Indeed it is...
Dragonite is the only 6IV 'man I got deliberately. I happened to stumble on a 6IV Fletchinder when I was honestly only intending for 5, but then it didn't have the right Ability anyway. O:<

It is not hard in terms of eggs, it is that since it is a Psuedo-Legendary pokemon, the amount of egg steps is long, even with a flame body. On a side note, in wonder trade, I got a Female Fletching with the Gale Wings ability, which I assume is the one you want. I can let you borrow the girl if you can send her back after your got yourself one with the ability. She is going to be essential to my team too.
It's 30 mins into Xmas, so I started my Ralts WT-Giveaway.
Doing batches of 6.
I'll need to set up a connection at my half-brother's so I can do some Abra and Eevee giveaways.
PokeBank is out in Japan.
It begins.
Not surprised they get it first... and on Christmas day too. :P
I just realized that a lot of Pokemon I like and want to use are Fairy-types or have been retconned into Fairy-types. Looks like I'm going to be a Fairy trainer.
That sounds really gay.
I've been pre-occupied with ALBW, but now I'm resuming this. So far, the game is still incredibly easy.

If I'm going to be using a Gardevoir I'll only be interested in a shiny one for using as a mega, sorry. If I can't get one I'll just be sticking with my Mawile.
Funny.
I'm thinking the same thing. >_>
By the way it's been confirmed that you do indeed get the Shiny Charm for completing the National Dex like in BW2, so if you're planning on Masudaing or shiny hunting in general you might want to hold off for a bit.
I take it because somebody has already transferred every other pokemon into X/Y so they could indeed find this information out.
Good to know they'll keep that around.

It works amazingly on in certain in situations and others it just stumbles. You pretty much got me right off that bat with that Cloyster that I had to set up just to take care of.

My predictability is unfortunately my weakest point but oh well, I enjoyed it too! Happy holidays to you too!
Yes! After 4 days of breeding, I finally got my first perfect 5 IV pokemon: my Dratini named Chibi. Sp. A isn't important, so I didn't need it, but holy cow, I actually did it.
Chibi?
Chibi!?
CHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIBIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!! :W *runs after Chibi*
So, I leveled up Mewtwo all the way to 100, and learned that signature move he gets at this level, and got the footprint badge.
After that, I tried going through Elite Four again. Defeated them with only using Mewtwo, X mega evolution with Recovery, Psystrike, Psycho Cut, and Aura Sphere, with plenty of items. Despite the ineffectiveness on some of their pokemon, I'd say this was pretty okay. Also, I got mroe than 3,000,000 to spend on shops or whatever items in the game.
I wonder if I should try pokemon Y starting from beginning again for the case of new pokemon, and just transfer Y pokemon to X or something. Though I have both X and Y downloaded from eShop, I got a cartridge boxed pokemon X for christmas.
I've got a 3DS XL from before, and just got a 2DS this christmas. I wonder if I should see what happens if I register both of them as separate FC's and see what pops up in friend safari.
Also, Pokemon Bank apparently confirmed to not have solutions against hacked pokemon. :P
Missed out on Wonder Trade Christmas, but I can at least join in on the after-Christmas rush of trainers.
In the meantime, I should raise some Abras for some lucky trainers to get low-level Alakazams.
WT Xmas was fun... Got a Snivy out of it. >_>
Quote from: Serebii
Nintendo have announced that they have temporarily removed Pokémon Bank from the Nintendo 3DS eShop. This is following hte massive influx of users on both Nintendo 3DS and Wii U coming on Christmas, plus the addition of Pokémon Bank causing the Nintendo Network to drive to a halt. This means users cannot download it anymore and currently cannot access the features of the game.. It is currently unclear when Pokémon Bank and Poké Transporter will return, or if the western release is delayed. They have made it clear that the 30 day trial for previously registered users will restart when it returns.
Pokémon Bank is now listed with a release of TBD (To Be Decided) on the North American and European eShops. We'll bring details on this as soon as we can
Well........ Looks like we got screwed. :(
What's strange is that this page still says tomorrow (http://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/6zMzdzWbupinGRvOZnN-NshrhuXzi4m7) as does the official site for the Bank itself.
Is that why I couldn't access the eShop yesterday?
Well actually almost all Nintendo online services were down yesterday, they just pulled Bank to try to lighten the load. But I think at that point it would be like throwing a small box off of a sinking ship.
It seems the eShop is still down though. This page is good to check the status (http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/network/en_na/network_status.jsp)

Thanks, I was wondering why I couldn't update Dream Team.
I'd recommend not trying to access the eShop again until the all-clear is sounded though. Trying to access it while it's down doesn't help at all.

Yeah definitely not, there wasn't a game breaking bug in Dream Team that was fixed was there?
Well nothing that you'll just happen upon. You should be fine. I beat the game before the patch came out and didn't have any issues so yeah
And I was so looking forward to my Celebi...
[tornado fang] Nintendo
Bah.
Oh well, I can wait for my Celebi.
Oh man, I need the special Pokemon I used to have. It would make breeding so much easier.
I just hatched Runaway's baby. Got a Bold Synchronize Abra who hates to lose!
Woot!
9x30 + 36 + 12 + 5 = 323 Ralts have been hatched, and still trucking.
I need more box space. >_>
Yeah I haven't resumed my quest for shiny Shinx yet.
Runaway got Puffs and pets for doing a good job. Cagliostro also got Puffs and pets for passing on her Ability. I may breed those two some more, or just have Runaway do stud service with other Pokemon.
Ah man I got all hyped up for Bank and even got everything ready on Black 2 for when it came out and now, nothing. I'll just wait until Bank does release.
Oh well guess I'll be on a longer hiatus from Pokemon than I originally intended, I just don't have the motivation to play until then.
Yeah my boxes in my copy of Black 2 are all set up. Remember, it only takes Pokemon from Box 1.
I hatched an Adamant Gooey Goomy earlier. His name is Skooshy.
I want to set Runaway up to stud. What Pokemon would be good mates? Got "Freak Me" already in the Love Shack playlist to send with him to the daycare. 8D

Ah man I got all hyped up for Bank and even got everything ready on Black 2 for when it came out and now, nothing. I'll just wait until Bank does release.
Oh well guess I'll be on a longer hiatus from Pokemon than I originally intended, I just don't have the motivation to play until then.
Would it have [tornado fang]-ing killed Nintendo/Game Freak to put in a method of transferring Pokemon from Gen 5 in-game instead of needing to download another piece of software? (Accessible after you complete the main story, of course.) Seriously, Pokemon is one of their biggest franchises and they could not see something like this happening? Even worse, I believe this is a harbinger for things to come with regards to the service we will get in the future. Though I had saying this because it makes me (sound like) an entitled prick but I believe Nintendo owes its customers big time for this screw up.
Well, they mentioned that for those that had downloaded Bank, and the service was interrupted, their trial periods get reset when the service comes up again. I guess it's a small start. We'll see what happens when they release it to the Americas and Europe.
As I have no prior games, I'm just after the storage space. Opening the bank just after Christmas was in general a really bad idea. You have a rush of new trainers just after the holidays. If they opened it shortly after New Years, they might've had less of a problem.
Not to mention the people who get giftcards for the eShop on Christmas.
The servers are slowly regaining normality. Most of the networks here in NA are operating normally again, but they're still taking it down from 4PM-4AM EST to alleviate traffic.
Might be for the best, actually, just to get things running smoothly again. Also, as with other online features, it prevents people from being online all friggin' day.
Anti-poopsocking, as you'd call it.
I expect to see Bank in early January. Like first half of the month.
I can wait for as long as needed, seeing as I have no prior Pokemon that I need transferred. It just means I can't yet chain-breed for a Shiny without doing it in short spurts and dumping extras into Wonder Trade.

Of course that's literally the worst time they could take it down.
12 hours of downtime and its during the bulk of the afternoon. Great plan.
Actually that's the best time to take it down. Obviously there'd be a lot of traffic during the afternoon and evening, so they're minimizing traffic by shutting it down during those hours so it's easier to fix everything.

Exactly. Usually, maintenance is performed during non-peak hours. But since peak hours are the problem, eliminating them eliminates the problem and allows for more time to devise a more permanent solution.
Doesn't look like they'll need more time.
Quote from: Nintendo's Facebook pageThank you very much for your patience while we perform maintenance on the Nintendo eShop and Nintendo Network. We sincerely appreciate your ongoing support. We wanted to share some details on what is causing this downtime, and update you on the current outage in service.
The initial outage was primarily caused by a one-time surge in demand over the recent holidays, compounded by the following:
1) An influx of new Nintendo Network accounts being created and accessing the Nintendo eShop.
2) Existing Nintendo 3DS account information being moved to new Nintendo Network accounts.
We are continuing to adjust our network to meet the needs of all our services and applications. To ensure our global audience has an expected level of consistency in service, we took the Nintendo eShop on Nintendo 3DS offline. We expect to have it back online no later than 4 a.m. ET on Dec. 29, but may have to perform more maintenance in the future.
We truly apologize for the inconsistencies in our online services. We are working hard around the clock to fully restore these functions, and will continue to keep you updated on our progress.
I still need to make an NNID.
I will only make it when the Bank forces me to. :P
So... What is 29th Dec, 4am ET in my timezone? >.>

Not surprising really. With that new influx of users comes with people who want to buy things from the eShop. Nintendo knows that is where a good chunk of money is and would hurry in fixing things.

Believe me, I will. I will be handing them out when I give enough perfect IVs for the offspring.
I'll happily take the bastard child!
Well, some good news. It did not take me long to breed a female Cyndaquil with 5 perfect IVs, and I am breeding it with my Jolteon with all perfect IVs. If anyone wants me to sent them one, just PM me and I will try to hook you up and give if a nickname of your choice.
Someone let me know if they get a Feabass somehow.
I don't think you can get those yet unless somebody in Japan let one out to the world already.
But anyway, I'll drop a PM in a bit. I haven't played Pokemon in a while but I'll try to get online to get a Cyndaquil.
That's why I said somehow, like by wonder trade. Also I don't know if the online works right now because I can't seem to connect.
Nintendo fixed the network issues so the eShop and stuff stay on but the online itself save for the eShop has been working fine. Must be a Pokemon specific thing.
Or somehow my DS online is screwing up specifically because my iPad wouldn't be able to use Internet if my internet wasn't working.
I'll need to indulge in Wonder Trade crack again. Got some Abras I can pawn.
I was online just fine earlier.
Maybe something is up with the connection on my 3DS, I'll check again later.
I have Feebas I can trade if any of you want one
Breed that thing and I'll let you know when my internet connection for the 3DS stops acting stupid.
I bred a whole bunch already so any time.
Well, I received a Chimchar through the GTS. YES!
Thanks for the Cyndaquil, Pyro. USE THAT HATCHING POWER WISELY.
I wish Milotic became FABULOUS~ and learned Dazzling Gleam.
Now trying to see if I can get a Piplup over the GTS. 8D
I got Runaway hooked up with moves that would make him FABULOUS~ in contests. I wonder how high Dazzling Gleam scores in Beauty...

I didn't even have my proper team on me.
Congratulations I guess?
Gah, ruining my end of the year victory.
Eeeee my friend gave me a Totodile!
Posted on: December 31, 2013, 08:13:33 PM
Okay I need you guys to help me with something because I'm having trouble with this. I need you guys to go to route 19, find a horde of Gligars, and catch one with Immunity. Bring a Pokemon with Toxic, if you can't poison one of them catch it and trade it to me when you get the chance. I will give give you a Totodile for your troubles.
I think I may have the Pokemon you are looking for and I am looking for a Totodile.
Really? Let me check if I already have a second Totodile.
It is fortunate I received two Immunity Gligars through wonder trading.
Yay and I got the Tyrunt and Tyranitarite today.
Took Cagliostro through the Free Money Grind Chateau, and attempted to raise Runaway's HP with Purple Juice. Didn't work, but at least he liked the drink. Then, I fed and played with the team.
I'm thinking of pairing Runaway's baby off with another Abra, see if I can score some more good IVs. What nature would you suggest I pair with a Bold Synchronize Abra who hates to lose?
Quilavas really like it when you pet their toes.
I was explaining the finer points of Pokemon husbandry to my mom. She seemed to understand it, for the most part, but got stuck on my comment about chain-breeding.

I'm amazed she understood something. Also husbandry?
Basically breeding. In general, it's the management and care of animals (Pokemon) by humans, with attention paid to genetics for good qualities and behavior. Breeding for perfect IVs is Pokemon husbandry.
Ah okay, but as I said before good Natures should take priority over IVs.
Exactly. I bred Runaway for his Nature and Characteristic, as it covered his deficits, and his offspring has a good Ability to go with it. Beyond that, I focus on type spreads.
The problem is with an Alakazam his deficits are so bad you shouldn't bother covering them and his Nature is not really good. My breeder mind is screaming but you can ignore that since you aren't going into competitive play in the first place.
He can hold his own pretty well in casual play, so that's plenty good. Though, if I were to raise an Alakazam for competitive play, what Nature would be a good one?
Timid with a Max Speed IV is what I would do since I feel Speed is the only stat worth max if you want to max something if it's fast enough. Give EVs in Speed and Special Defense since his Special Attack is already pretty high and doesn't need too much help.
Well, I have all the Starters from Gen I to current. Now to breed! (Working on Chimchar now.)
I need a Treekco, Chimchar, Oshawott, and Tepig.
I get cracking on the other three...
Posted on: January 02, 2014, 02:28:05 PM
Boo yah! Bred a Chimchar with six perfect IVs!
Save me some fodder. I have Abras I can give for those.

Actually, the recommended nature is Modest. With 120 base stat speed, he is going to be going faster than most pokemon even if his speed is neutral. Only 30~40 pokemon are faster than him if you don't include priority moves. As a result, think Alakazam as a literal glass cannon. One hit is usually enough to knock him out, so that means Alakazam usually can't set up to raise his stats. Therefore, recommended EV spreed is 252 Sp.A/252 Sd/4 HP. Take as many as you can down before being taken down. If you are are scared of being outsped, Timid works with something like a Life Orb item.

I have quite a few with 5 perfect IVs, which is the threshold I try to reach. It is also fortunate that many of these starters are in the same Egg group (Field) except for the Gen I starters, Chikorita, Totodile, Treecko, and Turtwig. That said I still have two Cyndaquils with 5 perfect IVs, and I wonder how the Cyndaquil (named PYRE HEART per his request) I traded to PB is doing.
Akamaru, I'm the girl who raises Aerodactyls to max Speed because I want to be able to knock out Jolteons, Speed is always my priority on a Glass Cannon. Though I do agree that you can forgo Special Defense to buff his already amazing Special Attack.
Ugh, Jolteons. If there is one type of pokemon I am weak to, it is Electric. Three of my teamates can be knocked out due to Electric weakness and two others have weak Sp.D that a Stab Electric attack can knock them out.
I intend to raise my first Eevee as a Jolteon. PIN MISSILE BITCHES
As for Alakazam, I'm going to see how far I can go with Runaway the underdog and his supposedly hindering Nature. Underdogs provide me with a challenge, and a victory, no matter how small, is always more fulfilling when it's from an underdog.
Besides, Pyro can attest to how Runaway took out half of his team with an at-the-time shitty moveset. :P
Heh, I've always loved Jolteon, followed by Espeon & Umbreon! XD

For anyone who cares about the movies, apparently they're airing a Digitally Remastered version of Pokemon Th First Movie on Cartoon Network this coming Saturday morning. Well..... For those who prefer first gen Mewtwo anyway. I'm not sure if there's going to be a huge difference in quality or what. But I've seen it more than enough times. I wonder if they mean the audio's going to be clearer, or a wide screen version or something I'm not sure. All I know is, Digitally Remastered version of 1st movie is coming on this weekend.
I saw. If that means a digitally-remastered DVD release, I am so buying it. Granted, I have it in Japanese, but I'd like the English dub for pure narm charm.
Well, got myself a 6IV Korean shiny Ditto, obviously hacked.
Time to get back to breeding again.

I will forever be your servant if you let me borrow that ditto for 2 days. Its been nearly two weeks and I have only two perfect pokemon for my final team. I am starting to lose my mind with disappointment and getting dizzy from watching my guy go left to right over and over again.
Oye. 400++ eggs, and still no shiny Ralts.
I should start raising my Torchic... some day.
Once Ebon Hawk (my Fearow) is leveled, I'm going to raise another Fly slave. I'm thinking perhaps a Zubat...

I may just resume my Shiny Abra hunt. Load up on Quick Balls, I'm going to go fill some boxes with Abras!
I catch every Abra I find. Ain't Teleporting away like a pussy on my watch.
There will be no escaping Quickie tonight! Only way to escape is to not appear as a random encounter. If you do, prepare to be bred.
Er actually, to be captured and condemn to a life in the love shack doesn't sound too bad.
Yeah, I breed them and put them up for adoption, then raise others. I have two Alakazams, one of my other Abras recently evolved, and I plan to toss another into the team for a bit. I love cute Abra playtime in Amie. They're so cute!
I now have all the Gen2 starters, easily my favorite starter trio. :3
>Weakness Policy Aegislash
>Brightpowder Dragonite
>Smogonkeys
Holy [parasitic bomb] I'm never battling you again. Enjoy your win.
Er, my Dragonite was holding a Roseli Berry. The keys are going to be rid of once I get my pure breed Ninetails up and running. As for the Aegislash, can't defend myself on that one.
Overall though, it was a good battle. I would have lost if you had used Sucker Punch on my Chibi; ending his rampage.

Right, right. I'm tired and not thinking.
[spoiler]I'm just sick of fighting the same Pokemon that everyone else and their mother use.[/spoiler]
I don't use any of those.
Nor do I. Haha, you've all seen my Maractus at work! XD
I'm working on some new ones now. Hopefully I can put a somewhat competitive team together soon!
I'm not talking about you guys, I'm talking about the people I usually battle. And the passerbys.
Who do they usually use?
From the sounds of it, dem keys.
Note to self: No keys.
But for the sake of SCIENCE
... Dangle your keyring in front of Mabel? 8D
She doesn't care. :(
But was it full of KEYS!?
Keys, store discount cards, Dot Warner, and dice. D:
Mabel is not impressed by dem keys. D:
I should draw a Klefki loaded down with discarded keychains and store discount cards, like a proper keyring should have.
It will jingle that Bunnelby foot and those Poke Mart cards fiercely.
FEAR THE PLASTIC
Mabel's still not impressed. D:
My Keychain is huge and has a ton of [parasitic bomb] on it. And only 4 keys
Mine has two keys, about ten discount cards, and two keychains.
Klefki is so unrealistic because it lacks the [parasitic bomb] ton of discount cards.
Lel, my keychain only has my house key, my bike lock key, and a dog clicker on it. Gonna add my car key when my sister moves out and stops borrowing it.
A Klefki keyring would be the most perfect merchandise ever. Practical and nerdy.
MAKE THIS HAPPEN BANDAI
Meh, the keys are nothing. What is happening in the battles is that old generation pokemon are coming back, so threats like Latios/Latios, The Kami brothers, and Genesect are back. Right now they aren't hurting too much, but it is only a matter of time for their move sets to be updated and the rest of the world will have PokeBank.
Speaking of Bank... Still no updates. Ajgfjsfgjsg.
It's only been a week. I put my bets that it will release during next week. For now though, I am making my third perfect Pokemon: my Charizard. Thankfully someone from Japan Wonder Traded me and gave me a Timid with 31 stats in all stats and a nice bonus of having it's hidden ability. Just bred a few eggs moves on it and then time to EV train.
3 down, 3 more to go. Debating whether or not making a Cloyster or a Talonflame. The Cloyster is badass and covers a lot of weaknesses on my team.
A friend of mine offered to give me his White so I could not only play Gen V (which I haven't), but also have a game for me to transfer all my 'mons from Platinum to X. Problem is explaining to my family how a copy of White showed up from a residential address like six states down. I can see my mom yelling at me now.
"what kind of pervert are you talking to"
In other news, I'm in the market for replacing my Lapras. I was told W Rotom with Assault Vest is a good choice but some other suggestions would be nice.
Hm, water pokemon are hard to have thanks to everyone running some electric mice since most teams carry Talonflame or similar flyers. However, they are good. Blastoise with his stone, Cloyster, Weavile, Mamoswine, Slowbro with Defensive EVs, Gyarados, Azumarill, Rotom W, and Frogedier with Protean.

Say you got it off eBay. eBay is always a great excuse.
As for replacing your Lapras, can't help you. Once mine is leveled, I'll be in the same boat, but I'm thinking of leveling my Squirtle shortly. He'll warm the bench for a while.
I also like Milotics since they are basically the reverse of Gyarados, though their type coverage and variety is severely limited she has access to Recover and Toxic so she can make a good Special Wall. If you want defense too, use her Marvel Scale ability with either a Flame Orb or Toxic Orb. Marvel Scale raises it's defense when she is inflicted with a status condition except for Sleep, Frozen or secondary status conditions.
Oh, yeah, the electric weakness. That's why I taught Runaway Charge Beam. :P
I should also raise one of my Gyaradoses. Lots of Pokemon I need to start raising for team purposes. Pavorotti (Lucario) may make a return to the team, and I liked Ariados when I used her, so I may raise another one with a new moveset.
Blastoise is out of the question since I picked Bulbasaur. I might try for Milotic. Never even had one before.
Thus far my current team is Delphox, Sylveon, Venusaur, Hawlucha, Gardevoir, and the aformentioned Lapras. I kind of want to get rid of redundant types. (That would mean Gardevoir since I have a Psychic and a Fairy.) But I like her too much and there's also the matter of her Double Team/Calm Mind combo I have going for her. I have mostly a sentimental attraction to my team so I'm reluctant to get rid of any of them. It was pretty tough letting my Talonflame and Goomy sit in a box... (Except Lapras. Lapras is a jerk.)

Ariados is kind of really bad stat wise, it has decent Attack and everything else is mediocre. It's a shame since it has access to some good hazards and Sucker Punch to make up for the Speed but it will not last long. Also I'm sure Runaway can learn Thunderbolt which should be better for him.

There should have been a Friend Safari with Wartortles you can find somewhere. If you really want a Milotic have Ruri give you a Feebas. You also need a Prisim Scale to evolve it and you need to Trade. I think you can get one in the Battle Maison or something.
EDIT: Okay never mind, Runway can't learn Thunderbolt for some stupid reason.
A small correction, Prism Scales are found in the wild.

That's what's hampering my team selection. I start raising a new member and then when it's time to consider adding another team member, it's a really tough decision to decide who goes in the box.
As for Runaway learning Thunderbolt, I'll need to see if I have that TM stored away somewhere. I liked Charge Beam for the added SpAtt stat-increase.

That's what's hampering my team selection. I start raising a new member and then when it's time to consider adding another team member, it's a really tough decision to decide who goes in the box.
I put them in the Battle Box so I don't feel like a douchebag. I might use them SOME TIME. :/
I believe TB is bought in Pokemon Center...
You need to Wonder Trade or GTS for it since Feebass can't be found in the wild.

As for Runaway learning Thunderbolt, I'll need to see if I have that TM stored away somewhere. I liked Charge Beam for the added SpAtt stat-increase.
Clemont gives it to you after you beat him in the 4th gym, but Runaway unfortunately can't learn it for some reason. Again doesn't make any sense.
Oh nuts. >_>

Actually, apparently there are some in Mt. Coronet too. That simplifies things. I almost want to do it the whole way from Hoenn just so I can go to that memory reading girl and see if Gen III is even programmed into her.
He's sticking with Charge Beam, then. His current moveset is pretty decent and has a nice type spread, and he'll get a STAB from Psychic. I don't think I'll be changing his moves any time soon. If I replace anything, it might be Energy Ball, but I'm not sure what to replace it with, yet.
I'll experiment with Cagli's moveset more than Runaway's, as she's still under construction, so to speak. Not quite sure what I'll set her up with, though.

DON'T do Hoenn. [tornado fang]ing random numbers.
Mt. Coronet is only a tiny bit better than Gen3, though still [tornado fang]ing tiles.
Your best bet is still Gen5, they are easy with Super Rod/fishing in ripples in Route 1.
It'd be fun though.

Woot to legendary pwnage.
Speed Boost Blajerkin is present. And due to cheapness I'm not sure if I'll win this now due to a few missteps of mine. Ah well. It's not like I'm that good at online MP anyway.
Went and found a few hidden items and started planting more Berries in hopes of making more X-Berries. So far, not much luck. The extras I sometimes sell.
I lost then won a battle against my friend who had a better team.
*sigh* Cheapness prevails, obviously.
I totally lost track of how many Ralts eggs I have hatched, and still no shiny.
If it happened in-game, the wild population in Route 7 would have been overtaken by all of my released Ralts. 8U

Hey if you guys can spare any of the NOT shiny Treeckos I'd be cool to have that.
Breeding Togepi eggs to help a guy with an Egglocke.
... Egglocke?
A Nuzlocke but with Eggs or something. He's also type restricting it to Normal, Psychic and Fairy types, hench Togepi. Plus the dude had his game deleted by his cousin so he lost all his data on the Nuzlocke he was doing, which I think still had the same type restrictions. He also mentioned the starter for the Nuzlocke story will be a Furfrou.
Sounds interesting... Except for the game deletion part.

Yeah bit of a dick move, though he mentioned he bullied said cousin a little, but still it was a dick move from a kid. Especially since you have to use a button combination to delete the game.
Oh, I know game deletion personally, been doing it since Gen4. >_>

That, or random button combo-mashing. Still...

Don't [acid burst] off your little cousins.
Anyone want a Yamask with Toxic Spikes as an egg move? I was breeding them so I have a few left over.

Agreed.
I love breeding eggs and then someone challenges me to battle. Then I wipe the floor with their mon.
Well he liked the Togepi and it's the only thing that has the potential to learn Fly at the moment. Hopefully someone either gives him a Pidgey or he finds one because I believe he also still follows normal Nuzlocke Rules.
Every time I'm challenged to battle, I'm usually already in a battle, either a wild encounter or general grinding. People have lousy timing.
Man I have a lot of PokeMiles, I wonder what I should do with them.

I guess he needs more, sure, I have spares from secret ST.
Will you mind if the trade happens in about... 4 hours from now?
I do mind because I'll be in bed by then.
... Oh right, I forgot. There's no internet connection here... Argh.
... Weekend?
So I was breeding a 5IV Vulpix and in one batch I made two: a male and a female. I claimed the female so what I am offering for the first person to trade me is a male, 5 IV Vulpix in HP/Def/Sp.A/Sp.D/SD with its Hidden Ability Drought and a Modest nature. Any wants? I am looking for a Heracross with Moxie, but honestly, I am just giving this one away.
... *curses for lack of internet in office*
If you want, I can hold it for you, Wily. Cool thing about it is that I bred Heat Wave on it.
Breeding is no excuse to not have a proper battle team ready at all times. The Battle Box exists for a reason.
While true, just for you, I had my slot empty and barely had my Vulpix. Ev trained, evolved and taught proper moves, I would have won.
However, that game was so close. That was truly a good, proper battle.
You would have won because this is the very first time I've used all 6 of these Pokemon and also because everytime I see Aegislash and Cloyster on the lineup I stop caring.
I avoid battling most anyone here, especially Ruri, mostly of fear that my team's gonna get called [parasitic bomb].
Which it mostly is.
Meh. My team isn't all that great, but I don't care. The whole point is to battle with the Pokemon you love! XD
Which is why Runaway, with his hindering Nature, will always be on my team.
...which is currently carrying two slaves, two trainees, and Mewtwo for cleanup duties.

What the [tornado fang] are you talking about I've never called anyone's team [parasitic bomb], they use the same [parasitic bomb] as everyone else which I just get sick of playing. That's the problem. I swear if I see one more [tornado fang]ing Dragonite I'm just going to stop playing altogether. That thing is on 9/10 teams.
Also if anyone's team is [parasitic bomb] it's mine.
At least my Aegislash is sorta different?

Ruri, there are two types of battlers: casual and competitive battling. Unfortunately, you can't be both. Either accept your losses with grace and fun as a casual or you start preparing teams on paper in order to plan out counters. Don't like Klefki? Hit it with Ground or Fire type moves or prepare moves that Bounce back status affliction like Magic Bounce. Don't like Dragonite? Hit it with a Burn status to reduce his attack and destroy his Multiscale, then finish him off with an Ice, x4 weakness to rock (Use stealth rocks), faster Dragon attack or the new Fairy attacks. Don't like my Cloyster? It is weak with out Shell Smash, so it relies on a Focus Sash. Give it a good thunderbolt since it has weak Special Defenses, then do a Priority attack like Quick attack. Finally, don't like Aegislash? Hit him with the same Burn status, Feint to break through his defense, Sucker Punch is one of his greatest weaknesses, or that Mummy ability was a great idea. Aegislash can't change his stance with a different ability.
That is what it means to become a competitive player, you have to change your team up to cover all your defenses starting on paper planning things out to training them in game.

That is awesome. Got one with the Syncronize ability and is Timid?
I'm a casual battler. My goal is to just raise a nice variety of Pokemon, so I can have a variety of teams to play with. Some members will remain largely static, floating from team to team (Runaway is one of those, with Mewtwo around for cleanup, though he's slated to be booted off soon), while the lineup changes as I raise new members. I plan to start raising some Water types, once my current lineup is leveled, and I may boot Mewtwo off the team just to make room for a new benchwarmer.
So, if anyone does catch me online and want to battle, my current lineup does have Mewtwo on it. His moveset is weird. He's there for crowd control and general cleanup duties while benchwarmers level. I also have a few slaves. It's not a competitive team; it's a utilitarian team. Hence why half the team are slaves.

Eh, sounds good. Any name on your Vulpix that you want?
I'm trading off my Hawlucha and Lapras if anyone wants 'em. Can't say much about them. Lapras is [parasitic bomb] and Hawlucha has good speed (though not as good as my Talonflame was before I traded him) and... Decent attack I guess.
Either way I'm getting rid of them so if anyone wants 'em for breeding or dexing or something I don't care.
I'll take them for Lottery sake. What do you want for them? I have lots of Abras.
I'unno. Let's see. I guess an Abra would work for lottery and Pokedex. (More of a Ralts guy anyways.)
EDIT: I like that name.
Unfortunately I don't have many Ralts to trade. Got a Japanese Ralts I intend to breed for a shiny.
It's cool. Like I said, I already have a pretty decent Gardevoir in my team as it is.

LETS RACE EVEN THOUGH I LONG STARTED
Oh, I got a Swablu off wonder trade. I like Altaria. Plus it fills in that Flying gap and I didn't even have a Dragon type before.
I traded with some random person and they offered up a Charmeleon, so I gave them one of my Kadabras (I can raise many, many more), so thus, Gandalf evolved. So, they tried to trade him back.
You keep Gandalf, random person. I intended to trade for keeps.
Too bad there's no decent chat, so I couldn't tell them that. Instead I canceled the trade and disconnected. That should hopefully say "Keep him."
Unless they wanted Charmeleon back. D:
I'm still guilty over keeping a Gengar that someone from Japan traded me for evolution.
I'm currently working on depleting the Route 5 Abra population.
And I am still destroying the ecosystem of Route 7. Soon, only Ralts will roam Route 7!!
Caught five Abras so far, they're more frequent now that I have Runaway doing all the battling. Guess they're attracted to his scent.
And I can't name any of them Shazam? I call shenanigans!
Lolcensorship.
I don't even know what it's trying to censor! Same with when i tried to name an Abra "Criss Angel." I can name an Abra "Uri Gellar" without a problem, and Uri had the beef with Pokemon, so I don't get the Criss Angel censorship. Are they trying to censor "ss"? I named a Nincada "Tuffass" without an issue and have another named "Zuckuss." What's wrong with "Shazam"?
Sounds like something someone would say after a session. *sagenods*
There's a Scatterbug floating around on Wonder Trade named PeenMuncher, and I can't name an Abra Shazam.
What makes that Scatterbug so special? I have a Dunsparce named TrouserSnake and I can't name an Abra Shazam.
Bah. Back to the hunt...
Loldoublestandardscensorship.
*Dropkicks every single damn Bunnelby into the stratosphere*
If I'm not depleting the wild Abra population, I'm certainly decimating the other wild Pokemon populations in droves.
Route 5 will become a barren wasteland. Maybe my Ralts can move in after Route 7. 8D
Oh [tornado fang] YES! They're airing the special Mewtwo Awakening episode this coming weekend, along with an Encore airing of the new movie! :D
I've got the DVD that one of my parents gave me this past Christmas 2013. I haven't checked if the episode exists on it. But at least they're airing it. I was kind of worried we might missed out on something. But looks like they got us covered over here. :)
Though I still prefer 1st generation Mewtwo, but I'd watch anything that's a special event thing. :)
Well, looks like the first Global Link event for XY has been announced. There will be an item distribution, for the Discount Coupon. This item entitles you to a 50% discount of all items at boutiques. The event will start on January 14, until March 3. You can only have one Coupon per game.

From the way it's worded, the Coupon sounds like a Key Item. I could usd it in my Y, if I ever decide to leave Lumiose City, after grabbing my Bulbasaur there. >_>
I wonder if it can be used at the Poke Ball boutique. I wouldn't mind buying Balls at wholesale prices.
Hmm... I know the bargain O-Power works at the PokeBall boutique.
Tonight's plans include depleting the Route 5 Abra population. I know there's a shiny hiding out there! And I will catch it! Including every single other Abra I come across.
I'm starting to run low on nicknames for these. After naming well over 35+ Abras, some names are being accidentally repeated. I have two Houdinis, went through two David Blaines, and two Lance Burtons. I think I should just stop naming them before I end up with five Copperfields and three Miss Cleos.
And my plans include hostile Ralts takeover in Route 7. I KNOW ONE OF THESE EGGS HAS A SHINY WAITING TO HATCH.
It's that damn recessive shiny gene. We need to put together the right coupling of carriers to produce offspring with the shiny gene as a dominant trait.
Pokemon genetics.
Once you get passed that rough exterior and violent attitude, he's really a big, cuddly kitten who loves spending every day with you. :3
At least mine is.
I'll never know mine. He's forever in the box. 8D
Take him out and max his affection! He doesn't even have to battle, he can warm the bench forever. Just give him tummy rubs. You know you want to.
Mine hasn't been seeing much battle as of late. He hangs around to help out any mid-levels. Since my current batch of mid-levels can hold their own, then Mewtwo hasn't seen much action for a long time. His Mega form even less so. I rarely use it.
HE WILL BE FOREVER ALONE
With Xerneas, Articuno and Zygarde. 8D
Eh, Mewtwo may end up visiting the box shortly, as I need room. Though, I'm tempted to replace Shadow Ball with Hyper Beam and let him play with that for a while. He has the HP to tough out his turn resting.
Sarumon, one of my Abras, has four good IVs, so I may raise him up soon, along with Runaway's baby. Runaway may go spend time in the love shack with Miss Cleo, who is Timid. She may get the Everstone so I can see what baby they produce.
Little Timid Abra babies!
I wonder if I should raise Miss Cleo up to a Kadabra before I force Runaway on her...
Force Runaway on her as an Abra. You know you want to. 8D
Miss Cleo, prepare yourself. Runaway is Bold and he hates to lose. 8D
The egg get theme, and bicycle theme are getting on my nerves... I have also completely lost track of the number of eggs I have hatched, but I believe it's either approaching, or past 500 eggs now. 8|
I do all my hatching runs in the center of Lumiose. No annoying bike theme, no screen changes, just hold the controller pad in one direction and go around and around and around and around and around...
I haven't yet forced Runaway on Miss Cleo, yet, but I caught three more Abras last night. ROUTE 5 WILL BE DEPOPULATED OF WILD ABRAS AND THE OTHER SPECIES MASSACRED.
If you like Panchams and Furfrous, catch them now before I obliterate the wild populations and Wily's Ralts take over. :P
What an awesome extinction event. 8D
Annoying bike theme?
But the bike theme is like one of my favorite songs in the game! D:
It gets annoying... WHEN THAT IS ALL YOU HEAR TRYING TO HATCH 500++ EGGS 8|
I'm starting to think my Japanese Ralts is a bootleg from China, lol. B(
I also have a Japanese Ralts.
And now I have a plan.
What if you breed two foreign Pokemon?
*shrugs*
If they are 2 different foreigners, I think it has the same chance as 1 foreigner. I could be wrong.
I need a German Ralts.
But, I have a Danish Fletchling, and a Spanish Charmeleon! 8D
I'm also thinking if the foreigner needed to be female... But since Japanese Ditto works... GODDARNIT SEX HARDER WHIP THAT SHOTA RALTS INTO SUBMISSION MY DOMINATRIX GARDEVOIR
I think my Japanese Ralts might be female. My Korean Hawlucha is male, but I have yet to have Buena Girl sex him into submission. Might try breeding my German Froakie, or that Spanish Charmeleon, or force my French Squirtle onto one of my Dittos...
as far as i'm aware, if you're trying the masuda method all that matters is that the parents are from 2 different regions. considering that you should be fine if neither of them are from your region but both are still from different regions, i see no reason why the gender matters for that.
Then Masuda hates me. B(
He liked me.
And then hated me.
I don't know what happened.
Perhaps you should destroy the ecosystem of Route 7 in revenge.
Introduce a new invasive species as a predator!
I ALREADY AM
Then Mirby should introduce another species as competition for the Ralts.
In the meantime, I will continue to decimate Route 5 and hoard wild Abras in my basement.
My Route 5 is full of Shinxes.

He might have quit after that.

That's why Magnemite's sweating. Either that or she farted.
In regards to breeding, I usually drop off humanoid Pokemon. The breeder's seen Eldritch abominations mate (which have drove him mad and his apparent ignorance is just his way of coping with the horrors he has witnessed), so watching my Alakazams go at it must be a refreshing break from HOT SKITTY ON WAILORD ACTION or Ditto action.
Still, he's a perv and Runaway has no manners when he gets it on with Cagli in the middle of the playground.

So, say you went to your mom's house and let your team out of their balls. Would they try to mate with each other (if they're compatible), or do they require the atmosphere that only a daycare can provide?
Maybe the breeder keeps Pokeporn on hand...
There's always the black market for these things. Jenny has been trying for years to crack down on the distribution... Forgetting the most obvious.

One of these days I'll catch another Mr. Mime, though I demand for it to be female. I think I have one, but I forget. My box is so disorganized right now, i need to spend some time going through it and organizing everyone by type and group by species.
I have almost forty Abras spread across five boxes.
Like Sabrina's in GSC? 8D
Also... RALTSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
How many boxes are nothing but Ralts? XD
I may name my Abra boxes something to differentiate them. Not sure what, though. Abra Abattoir?
IIRC...
Box 1 to 11 - Caught wild Pokemon
Box 12 - Empty
Box 13 - Game team, EV'd mons, capture helpers
Box 14 - Legendaries, in-game trades, RPM trades, shinies
Box 15 - Mystery gifts, self-trades from previous Y playthroughs
Box 16 to 20 - Empty
Box 21 to 26 - RALTSSSSSSSSSSS
Box 27 and 28 - Wonder trades
Box 29 - Trade fodder
Box 30 - Pumpkaboos
Box 31 - Vivillons
As you can see, I have unlocked all 31 boxes. If I did not release the subsequent Ralts, my boxes would have long been filled up. >_>
Ah, so that's how many boxes there are. Good to know. I wasn't sure, as I'm up to Box 15, with Abras being dumped into 12, because I moved some around. My boxes are a complete mess. Boxes 1-4 are slightly organized, but the rest are not, with the occasional organization, such as rows of like mons. Mostly, it's a mess of captures, trades, Legendaries scattered around, some fodder here and there, a small backlog of eggs, and Abras. Rows and rows of Abras.
Most of them wild-caught.
To unlock subsequent boxes, just put one Pokemon into each empty box. When you log out, then login again, the new empty boxes will appear. Then you place Pokemon in them again, and so on. IIRC, you need to do this a few times, as it does not unlock all the boxes at one time.
I just beat Diantha with my all-Dragon team.
That's
Candygram the Garchomp
Ringo Starr the Hydreigon
Bill Nye the Salamence
Goolia the Goodra
Bruce Wayne the Noivern
Tyranitaxe the Haxorus
Ringo didn't survive a Moonblast from Diantha's Mega Gardevoir, but that's really the only trouble I had. Goolia took Gardevoir out with a well-placed Sludge Bomb, after Ringo had weakened it with a Flash Cannon.
Eventually I'll need to put together another team to take through the Elite 4. I guess I could go through with my current selection of HM slaves and mid-levels, with two cleanups and see how they do.
Runaway would earn his second Medal of Honor. :P
Not even. Diantha's the only person there who remembers you've won, and after your team is added to the hall of fame, credits instantly.
Poo. Oh well. HM slaves need practice.
Yea... I wanted another victory parade in my honour...
You can never have too many victory parades.
That [sonic slicer] in the one building with the Mamoswine is still a [sonic slicer], though. Does that stupid photo shoot ever end? I want to go loot the other floors...

If we had more victory parades and get more medals, then she might be less of a [sonic slicer], else she be stabbed with the Honor of Kalos.

OHSHI- PARANORMAL ACTIVITY POKEMON EDITION
Posted on: January 15, 2014, 01:41:23 AM
Oh yeah, forgot to mention that the Discount Coupon is up for grabs on the Global Link. It's a one-time use item, and works only in boutiques. It gives you a 50% discount off items. If you tried on the multiple items, and pay for all of them, the 50% is on the total. If you buy them off the rack, it's only on the first item you buy.
Also, the new attraction is opened as well. Balloon Popping costs 100 PokeMiles per play, and you... Pop balloons, duh. There are 3 Levels, the prizes you win depending on the level, and how close your score is to 100.
Not sure if I'll get the discount coupon... Though, 50% off twenty or thirty Quick Balls would be nice...
From the way the item description is worded, it's the clothes boutiques. The PokeBall Boutique... Just use lvl3 Bargain power, it's 50%. The coupon can also be held by a Pokemon, which I gave to Zygarde.
Quote from: Quickman on January 15, 2014, 09:04:09 AM

Might as well, its free I think.
I WILL GIVE THE COUPON TO...
a Bunnelby.
FEAR ITS BARGAINING POWER
I think its a Key Item so you can't even do that.
Too bad the discount coupon isn't like a permanent price reduction on everything in the boutiques.
Wily just said that he gave it to his Zygarde.
Yea, it's a hold item. I gave it to Zygarde for fear of accidental usage if I enter a boutique. It's a one-time event too. Once you used it, you can't get another from your Global Link account.
Not sure who I'll give the coupon to, as I don't want to accidentally spend it on something stupid. I mean, I guess I could just buy a whole bunch of stuff I'll never wear, but I'd much rather hold onto it in case those "summer and autumn" lines the one guy was talking about do ever show up.
Lol, that will never happen. XD
WHY DOES HE TAUNT ME WITH PROMISE OF NEW CLOTHES?! D:
*goes on a rampage in Boutique Couture and then leaves to buy thirty Quick Balls at wholesale prices.*

Maybe Z will provide the answer...

I stopped playing the game for a while. Is this some woman that just randomly appears post game? Or do you actually find her somewhere? I don't recall battling her, but it's been a while though. :P
She's in the Battle Maison, last I checked. I haven't encountered her, as I don't use it very often, or at all.
I think I might breed a Doduo egg and Smoochum egg in the near future for that guy I gave the Togepi egg to, especially since that Togepi is still his only Pokemon capable of learning Fly.
*imagines a Togepi flapping its stubby arms*
DAWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

Finally. After breeding eggs since Christmas, I have my first ever Pokemon team that is 5IV-ed, with right nature and EVs and awesome abilities. Time to take over the world. I just need the right items to do so.

I will find the pattern and I will crochet one of my own.
Then, I will catch another Ditto and name it Dr. Smooth Love. Then, I will resume my hunt for a shiny Abra. ONE IS BOUND TO SHOW UP AFTER I DECIMATE ROUTE 5 :W

ABRA'S EYES ARE OPEN
Anywho, back to my hunt...
Well, I challenged Ruri to a Pokemon battle without a battle plan, no preparation, and with the full expectation of losing... aaaaaaaaaaaaaand I lost, but only by a 1-0 margin, to my surprise. Firestorm the Infernape (my mixed attacker) managed to avenge his fallen comrades for a bit of a late game sweep and Bug Zapper the Galvantula (a special attacker, more or less) managed to pull her weight as well. Had Ruri's last Pokemon not been a Kyurem-B, I might have stood a chance of winning. I love it when the game surprises me.
Anyway, that was actually fun and thanks for the great battle, Ruri. 8)
Before I hit up GTS...
Does anyone have any Drowzees that they'd be willing to trade? I'll take breeding fodder and hindering Natures, I honestly am not picky (look at Runaway, with his hindering Nature, whom I think is awesome)! Any level, any Nature, any Ability, any gender. I just need one.
You'll get one of my many Abras, and a few of them don't have names, as I was running out of ideas.
As for the Drowzee's name, Kadath will work fine.
Posted on: January 20, 2014, 01:45:25 AM
Well, I put an Abra up on GTS for a Drowzee. Hopefully someone comes through. The Drowzee trades available were ridiculous.
i twade u a dwowzee 4 mew durr hurr hurr
That's the GTS for you...
One of the reasons I avoid it if at all possible. Cauldron of stupid. I'm afraid that the stupid will infect the trade and my Pokemon will get the dumb.
A dumb Hypno... HMMMMM...
Well, hopefully some kind soul will give Dazzler a home and give me a baby Drowzee.
After that...

A... shiny... Aipom...
A SHINY AIPOM
I CAUGHT MY FIRST SHINY
OH MY GOD YOU WON'T BELIEVE HOW HAPPY I AM
When it learns Double Hit and you level it up it'll evolve into an Ambipom.
I caught it in N-Mario's Friend Safari. It was the third Aipom I encountered.
Oh my god, my hands were shaking when I chucked that Quick Ball as fast as I could.
Congrats! Welcome to the Shiny Club! *hands out a glass of champagne *
Mmmm... Bubblies...
Oh, I also got a Drowzee. Someone grabbed one from a Friend Safari, so somewhere out there, someone is hoarding their Psychic Safari and keeping their third Pokemon a secret. B(
In the meantime, who should I breed with this Drowzee? I have a female Timid Abra that I was originally going to force Runaway on...
Well if the Drowzee is male and you want more Drowzees it has to be with a Ditto.
I got a Dusclops from a Friend Safari, pretty happy.
Also managed to snag a French Stunky via GTS.
What Sakura said. Even if female, get some slime action. 8D
TO THE DAYCARE!
Drowzee can spend time with one of my Dittos. But first, I want to catch another and name it Dr. Smooth Love, and Drowzee can mate with that.
Such a smooth criminal, that Ditto will be. :P

Went to your Safari and caught an Impostor Ditto. It's name is DrSmoothLove and it's off to the Daycare to spend quality time with a male Drowzee.
... The first Ditto you caught in my safari... And it's a HA. WOOOOOOOT
The Drowzee has Forewarn. That should warn him of DrSmoothLove's advances. 8D
By then, the doctor is already a Drowzee. 8D
Okay, since I'd like to have a breeding pair...
Anyone have a female Drowzee with Insomnia? I'll take former breeding slaves and breed fodder.
Nevermind, I just hatched a female.
http://pokebeach.com/2014/01/pokemon-bank-back-up-in-japan
Hopefully they'll release it in other countries soon so the multiple stupid facebook pokemon page people that I see because a friend of mine comments on those things shut up.
I wondered what was updated to make it ver1.1, and yet still lets hacked Pokemon through.
Must be a general stability update or something for the servers. Either way it doesn't really affect me, and hopefully they'll be more events for event legendaries like Arceus and Mew like they always have.
If that happens, I'll be lucked out again. 8|
I'm reading that they fixed the Kalos Region mark hack

Sure. Just send an RPM message to me even if I am not online. It is linked to my e-mail, so my phone should tell me if you're ready.
The sooner the Bank returns, the sooner I can start chain-breeding.
And my team is becoming all Psychic types, and Susan my Trapevoir has become a heal stick. My Fly slave is a Sigilyph, I'm still leveling Cagli, Mewtwo and Runaway are still on as backup, and now I have a Hypno to flirt with Susan. I might change around some moves and experiment with an all-Psychic team for a while.

So, I plan to breed some more Forewarn Drowzees. I'll even infect the babies with Pokerus.
Anyone want a Drowzee baby when I start breeding them?
I'll take one
Then I shall pick up Kadath's egg later and hatch it. Any names?
All caps, DEEP SWEEP
Hatched, named, infected and waiting. DEEP SWEEP is a female.
I put the Hypno back in the Daycare with Kadath and got a male, which I named Wesley Dodds.

Well, it's been reported that ver.1.1 of Bank affects how connections are done to the servers, hence reducing the load on the servers. Hopefully, this does mean that Bank is coming out soon for non-Japan areas.

Apparently according to the guy who runs Serebii, it would log into the Nintendo Network, then it would login to the eShop, then it would log into the Nintendo Network AGAIN, and finally it would go to the bank.
Instead of doing the normal thing and just going straight to the bank. Which is why they blew their servers up. Further proof that Nintendo doesn't know how to internet.
Anyway.
yikes, that's [tornado fang]ing awful sounding.
It's not terrible, but it's not great or good either. I give it a meh, at least it's better than the first Diamond and Pearl opening in English.
The problem is the rhythm is just not there.
I mean, I get why they feel this need to make english openings because kids are stupid and would be like "Why are they singing gibberish?" but why do they feel the need to pick the most bored sounding people to sing? Where's the [tornado fang]ing emotion? I mean if you're going to phone it in at least try to sound like you give a damn.
Yeah my main problem was the rhythm and random pitches, but again better than the first Diamond and Pearl opening with a rap song. This is probably my second worse opening but I give it points for not being the usual cheesy stuff they used after Advance Generation. Like I said it's just a technical disaster of a classic song so I give it a meh.

Also, I want to say that some similar thing happened when they tried to introduce the Nintendo Wi-Fi USB for those that needed internet, only for it to get banned by some states, or something.

Well that and the lyrics are the chessiest things ever. It's ironic that 4Kids had the better songs for Pokemon before they lost the rights to it. Then again even 4Kids bad songs are at least earworms, I fully admit that the One Piece opening is such a guilty pleasure.
Heck any vocal Yugioh track is amazing in my opinion, it at least has a beat compared to the songs the other dubbing company did for Pokemon.

English dubs of
anything are usually either dull or laughably bad. I don't hold high expectations for them.
That's why I was shocked at how great Smile Bomb (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DehmPOkrtRc) was.
Seriosly YuYu Hakusho has the best dub songs, not only because it's a dub of the Japanese opening but it sounds amazing. I honestly like the English version of the 3rd Ending better than the Japanese version.

For me, I didn't think the ending songs were that much better, or worse, than the Japanese versions (although I disliked the last ending song). They were consistently good, no matter which version. However, The Smile Bomb opening is significantly better than the original.
Ending 2 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0HOiwTuhhKY) is my personal favorite, and while I slightly prefer the Japanese version, hearing Kid Goku/Gohan singing brings a smile to my face.

Precisely. Someone not only recorded that line, but someone else heard it and said "Yes. We have a winner here." Everything that went into that song is just an amalgam of hilariously horrendous decision making. And it must be treasured for all eternity!
I actually prefer that opening to the Funi one... they're paying Vic Mignona for a cover of the Japanese OP now, and it's awful.
I have conquered my backlog of eggs! I forgot that I was breeding Absols for a while, forgot that I bred a Chespin, hatched two Drowzees, and another Eevee.
God, I have like three boxes of backlog. Someday, I am going to have to hatch those eggs.
You all have NOTHING compared to mine. B(
I finally organized all my Abras. I have one-and-a-half boxes full.
I need to breed some and go out and catch more.
I need to trim my Ralts boxes again...
Quickie, OK for trading?
Give me a few minutes...
Thanks Quickie, I'll make sure to evolve her to eat my dreams!
Just avoid touching the pendulum when you do. While mine makes a sad face, keep messing with it might drive it to homicidal rage.
No worries, it's not like my NPC is 10 yrs... Crap.

Congratulations, you made me laugh.
So I knew Ditto was a whore, but when I bred that traded Cyndaquil to get my own to name it, I got two babies in a period of about two minutes. One was a boy and one was a girl. I gave the father to my friend in exchange for an Oshawott, and I placed the boy in the box for future breeding, but damn. The girl got near perfect IVs. I think it was 6, 6, 5, 6, 6, 6 at level 1 respectively. I've already gotten her up to Lv. 14 so I can't check back unfortunately. Lonely Nature, not sure if that's good for Cyndaquil.
Anyways, I should probably stop not breeding. [parasitic bomb]'s awesome. Plus Ditto's a whore and gets it done quick.
One of my Abra offspring has near-perfect IVs, and I recently hatched an Eevee with near-perfect IVs, all thanks to one of my Dittos.
Ditto, you are a wonderful whore. You get in there and get the job done fast. And with Impostor, the other Pokemon doesn't even know what hit them until it's too late to back out! 8D
"Baby, I can be anything you want."
Now I'm at a loss as to whether I want to drop RotomW and it's badass typing for Oshawott just because I love Oshawott. I mean, I know I'm dropping Delphox for Typhlosion not JUST because it's my favorite 'mon of all time, but because I already have a psychic and Typhlosion can learn Earthquake and Thunderpunch to cover typing. But jeez, what reason is there for me to actually use my favorite Gen V 'mon? (Next to Emolga, of course.)

I guess I've give it a trial run though. See how he handles.
Posted on: January 26, 2014, 12:27:20 AM
Furisode Girls are the cutest things ever.
Well, Hex Maniacs are the cutest things ever.
Breed it? I'd like to Oshawott some day. :3
I'll put it with Ditto and shoot you an egg if you want. Mine is still an egg too right now.
I can wait. Currently, I'm working with an all-Psychic team. Haven't really tested them out, yet, as Yellow Sign (Sigilyph) and Hypno are still so far behind everyone else that they'd just be warming the bench while Mewtwo and Runaway do all the work. I'd rather they be mid-level before we go Chateau grinding.
...that sounded dirty.
I always like to imagine that the Battle Chateau is the place where rich people go to just get drunk and act like assholes.
Judging by some of their trash talk, that seems plausible.
Go ahead, bitchy Baroness. Tell me that I picked my $300,000.00 black trench coat from a garbage can. Mewtwo, do me a favor and kick her Pokemon on the face. Thank you.
My favorite thing is sending out my cute harmless Sylveon and oneshotting their entire team, then tipping my fedora and taking their money... Plus interest because amulet coin.
Well they're not all drunk.
Look at that robot maid, she's obviously not drunk cause she's a robot.
Either that or she's completely plastered and just thinks she's a robot...
Well, there's that one chick who loves to go wild with her Tentacool for stress relief... Is she just brutally honest, or did the alcohol make her that way?
For the first time since I started playing ten years ago, I've finally put together a team of six Pokemon whom happen to be in my list of favorites. And as far as I know, competitively viable. At any rate, Samurott's... Actually pretty cool in Amie. Like... He just exudes... Coolness.
Typhlosion could stand to be better in Amie though.
But wow Samurott. Like, when you pet him or give him a PokePuff, he just nods like "Thanks, bro. We're cool."
It's sick.
(Also Altaria isn't half bad)
(http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f278/katietiedrich/comic338_zps0b8a16f5.png)
Ah yes... Critical hits on Shinies... The PAIN
Made worse with max affection.
Better than having one Exploding on you, luckily it was in Crystal.
I had a Shiny Graveler Selfdestruct on me in Pearl, and a Whismur Roar'd me in Emerald. Crit-killed a Floatzel in Platinum.
This is why I pack Quick Balls.
Lots and lots and lots of Quick Balls.
And if they don't work, I chuck Ultra Balls for an hour.
Quick Balls did not exist yet in Emerald, so that one is screwed. That Graveler still pisses me off, as did my Infernape killing that Floatzel...
Thankfully, I avoided those heartaches. Until the inevitable heartache of a shiny that resists the mighty Quick Ball and then explodes, or does some other battle-ending move, or one that uses a recoil move after they've been False-Swiped, effectively killing themselves.
CAN'T WAIT
And when you do, we shall all have a Shiny Anonymous session.
I can see it now...
I'm taking Yellow Sign out berry harvesting and I'm not paying attention to the screen. A shiny Slowpoke pops up and I don't see the sparkles, but I'm focused on the tree behind it, and write off its paleness as bad lighting, or my screen's tilted weird. Yellow Sign then proceeds to rip it a new one while harvesting berries, and as it faints, that's when I realize that it was shiny.

This almost happened to me in-game, and I even caught a normal Slowpoke just moments before. But I did hear the sparkles, so I caught it.

I imagine that any mammal like Pokemon has some sort of fur, though Hypnos are based off of tapirs and I don't think they really have fur. :\
So, velvety Hypno, like a hairless dog or cat.

You should totally color this one in. Make it super dark, with the light of the Pendulum the brightest thing in the room!
I will after I finish my current pic.
I like it, reminds me of the pictures you would see in fairytale books. :)
Also I never noticed how creepy Hypno looked till now for some reason. XD
(http://imageshack.com/a/img163/5325/dzr9.jpg)
The kid is done. I'm going to go eat my sub, then work on Hypno.
Creeeeepy!
Oh god... Kid! Touch the pendulum! D:
These are turning out sooooooo awesome... D:
Not quite sure what I'll put in the foreground. Grass of some type and/color.
How about a cave setting? D:
(http://imageshack.com/a/img713/5554/7jeb.jpg)
Still not quite sure what I'll do with the foreground...
Rattatas? Also, with colour, I can distinctively see Hypno's ribcage.
... O^O
He hasn't fed in a while.
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF- ;^;
I intend to tweak the shading more tomorrow, but I'm letting it dry overnight, first. This way, I can layer on more paint without picking up the first coat. I'll put some meat on Hypno's bones then, and block out most of the foreground, or change it all to mist. I really don't know what I want to do with it.

That would work. I'll block that in tomorrow. It'll fit better since I've been using purple in the shading.
Posted on: January 28, 2014, 04:58:17 AM
I decided on just a simple dirt foreground.
(http://imageshack.com/a/img163/629/fh0a.jpg)
I'll do some finishing touchups tomorrow and scan it.
Looking better and better with each update!
And creepier too. D:
Ebon Hawk (Fearow) remembers me using Super Rods and fondly remembers that it felt good.
EVERYTHING HAS BEEN INNUENDO AS OF LATE D:
Oh laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawl. XD
That just made me realize that fondly is a letter away from fondle.
Hypno's memories are being read:
"Hypno met Squid at... a safari. Squid threw a Poke ball at it, and they started to travel together."
What it fails to mention is that Hypno was dumped into GTS for my Abra immediately after capture.
"The Pokemon remembers that it felt good. And... Hypno battled at Trak's side and defeated Skiddo. The Pokemon definitely remembers that it felt comfortable."
Nothing lewd there, just a happy Hypno.
So... There were tentacles before Hypno met you...
... Also, I think I'm approaching 700 eggs. I think. Still nothing. o//////o
Poor Hypno is traumatized by tentacles and Mr. Bonding. D:
*cuddles Hypno and feeds him Puffs to ease the pain*
If only there was a Shiny O-Power.
I'd use the hell out of it if there were. If Mr. Bonding were to show up while I'm working Lost and Found and start spouting the virtues of Shiny O-Power, I'd join in some Bonding Time for it.

Well for like the first half but it's not harmful, it's pretty par for the course whenever Ash and his friends end up in some abandoned mansion when they need shelter from a storm. Just lonely since an old lady died and wanted someone to play with her, I'm calling her a she because why not. She goes home with whom I presume is the granddaughter and is happy.
(http://imageshack.com/a/img541/4786/j997.jpg)
I redid Hypno's ruff. Letting it dry as I do some more touchups, and then I'll scan it once it takes a couple hours to dry.
Waiting for the subs... That Espurr!!
... And that Hypno. D:
I keep thinking I should add an Espurr in Wilypocalypse just so Zeta can squee about it while PB keeps getting creeped out by the fact the Espurr keeps staring into his soul. The anime just made me more convinced to do this but at the same time since Zeta already has 6 Pokemon plus the Eevee when it hatches so she can't catch it....but PB only has one at the moment.....
Haha, she could give me an egg and it could hatch from it! XD
Quote from: PBPB on January 31, 2014, 06:11:07 AM

How would she get the egg when she travels, plus the Eevee is still in the egg anyway. XD I was just thinking they find it in the wild in wherever they end up.
Also I'm kind of partial to the Female Meowstics, even if the curly scarf bothers me.
Now that I'm done with the painting, Hypno's going into the closet.
...that didn't come out right.

Though, I will say that the physics on the pendulum are well done. It has weight and moves nicely.
I thought once you had 4 or 5 max hearts, you didn't need to play with your pokemon anymore, or couldn't get any more souvenirs after getting max hearts. Unless the hearts go down if you lose battles, but I haven't really checked this.

They don't, Quickie just likes doing it to see what innuendos and other weird stuff she can find.
Well, that was a very quick response. Didn't give me time to edit my message. XD

I think I can infer from Quickie's posts that you can still get items even with max hearts though.
You can play with them and get more stuff, like Substitute plushies, freaky Shadow chairs, weird cushions with innuendo names, and various decorations.
I guess I should play with them more. Just for the Substitute plushie.
My team gets played with regularly. If I'm not grinding or hunting for shinies, I'm usually playing with my Pokemon.
I played with Runaway a lot today and got a Blue Shock Cushion. Since I have Cagli on the team currently, when I'm playing the Tile Puzzle and have two Alakazams in the pic, things get... confusing. Particularly if they're both on screen at once. I mean, come on! WHICH PART GOES TO WHICH ALAKAZAM D:
The answer to that question... Is VERY simple... [eyebrow]
According to Serebii, Pokemon Bank is available to Europe and Australia+New Zealand. I'm about to go check now.
Of course, the US won't see it yet. Get a move on, Nintendo. I have Pokemon to chain-breed!
Well, it's definitely up. It's been far too long, so I'd forgotten that I can transfer from any region game.
So I transferred all the legendaries on my Japanese games, like Nobunaga's Rayquaza 8D

If they're smart, this Thursday when the e-shop updates, presuming they fixed their issues. (Hopefully with SMB3 because seriously its been like a month overdue.)
As much as I would like to hope so, that they'll have gotten their act together, I'm not going to hold my breath. Thursday will be spent watching Groundhog Day.
Now see all this stress Nintendo's put us under over Pokebank's delay?
How about Valve fans for the past seven years.
So Pokemon Bank is out everywhere, including NA. So go ahead and grab it, get transporter, and your free Celebi. :)
>0<
Time to grab it after I shovel ice!
Posted on: February 05, 2014, 06:13:01 PM
Made a NNID and am currently downloading. Oh boy, Masuda method chain-breeding, here I come!
I petted my Rayquaza in Amie and made my Tyranitar go Mega.
It was glorious. *o*
I have no prior Pokemon to play with. I need to change that.
But first... chain-breeding. Also, where's my Celebi? Or do I need to use that new Pokemon Link option in the start menu?
Use the Pokemon Link option in the main menu. That's how you get free items and BP and stuff from Bank.
Ah, okay.
Just went through the Free Money Grind Chateau, with Runaway in the lead. It was Hypno's first time and he did half-decent. Fainted once, so I brought Mewtwo out to utterly destroy the other Pokemon in revenge. Though, Hypno's current Swagger/Zen Headbutt combo serves him pretty well. I need to work on his speed, though, as it's awful.
I guess it's going to be hell to play Pokemon Heart/Gold or whatever into Pokemon B&W, or B&W 2, then over to Poke Transfer, then to pokemon bank just for pokemon like Rayquaza, or Lugia, or Ho-oh. I don't understand why they couldn't support older games that have exclusive pokemon not found on other games. :-/
It's possible to port Pokemon from those games, but I hear it's a tedious and ass-backwards process. Basically, port them to B/W/B2/W2, and then to X/Y. But, I lack any of the other games, so I'm not concerned with it.
Hmm... That means I need to change my reigon settings to the US again... FOR CELEBI!

I think you're screwed in that sense since if you need to have a NNID to download anything off the eShop and in order to do that you need to either match it up with your country or pick one you feel like sticking with forever.
I don't think you'll be able to do any more region changing is what I'm trying to say.
Yeah, I read through the whole NNID schpiel when I made one. But, it's worth it for my first Celebi. :3
I will name it Squishy and it shall be mine. It shall be my Squishy.

Oh, don't worry. The Singapore eShop is devoid of games except for game updates. And I did hear it will affect my StreetPass. I'm not too worried about that, since my egg hatching is raking up the PokeMiles.
Ehehe, seems like my questionably obtain pokemon are hacks. Ugh, I need I shouldn't have trusted that guy. At least the legendaries I have caught over the years still work.
How did you find out?

Can't blame you, that's pretty cool.
I had a Shaymin I didn't know was not transferrable. I got it from a cart that had every other event Pokemon created, so I assumed the Shaymin matched an official one as well. Shame on me for not checking. Or should I say... Shayme?
...
I'm sorry.
Oh I also had a shiny Kyogre that definitely would not have gone through Poke Transporter. So once I'm done breeding and evolving the stuff I brought over, I'll be 716/718. If you happen to have a spare Kyogre or Shaymin (pfft) hit me up. I do have a few spare legendaries like Mewtwo and time travel Celebi.
Hey thanks now I know bank is up in the US.
Downloading! Then I'll never use it again. because there's no way i'm getting all the pokemon. :P
The Bank will simply be a repository for my breed fodder, and some trade fodder, and the Abras I capture in hunt for that elusive shiny.
The Celebi you get from Bank cannot be traded. And the time travel Celebi from HGSS can't be traded either. That makes my hunt harder. There are a million Kyogres on GTS, but the requests are all things I don't wanna give up or [tornado fang]ing Celebi.
Also, maybe it's because I'm pretty late to Bank, and non Asian countries are just as late, I can't find anyone offering a Shaymin at all.
Mewtwo got his birthday massage, lots of treats and belly rubs today. He got to go kick some Pokemon ass and play games. All in all, a good birthday for Mewtwo. :3

How did you find out?
It just said something along the lines of "This Pokemon is suspicious, we will exclude it if you desire to upload the box to the Internet." Not much of a loss, I guess. I knew that 6IV Ditto was fake and I have gotten pretty good at making 5IV pokemons using the Safari's Ditto from friends, so I am not crying.
Ah. Interesting.
The game should recognize Feb. 6th as Mewtwo's birthday, and he should get a cake at the Pokemon Center if he's on your team. But, it doesn't, so I made up for it with lots and lots of Amie time.

I think what amuses me most about this is that Susan is just kind of... staring at Hypno.
Anywho, I'm trying to mutate Berries. Got any tips? Like colors only worked once or twice, similar effects worked perhaps once, so now I'm trying similar shapes. Spiky planted with spiky, pears with pears, lemons with lemons, etc.
Well, the full list of mutants can be found here: http://www.serebii.net/xy/berryfields.shtml
Also... So... I was trying to create my US NNID (appropriately dubbed as Not Needed ID)... Stopped halfway.

Just use Eastern Standard Time, if you're undecided. That's what I'm on.

I got my Impish Synchronize Abra in the daycare with a Quirky Forewarn Hypno. Abra's got an Everstone. They had better produce an Impish Drowzee.
And I tried to diagram my Hypno's current family tree. Lots of inbreeding...
My Celebi is Bold, just like me! 8D
YOU'RE SO ADORABLE!!!! 0v0
Just hatched two Impish Drowzees. One of them, Dreamweaver, is somewhat vain, so her Special Defense is 7. At least their speed is marginally decent, which was what I was looking for. I'd like to breed a speedy Drowzee. What Nature do you suggest I try for? If one of my male Abras has that Nature, he's getting forced on my female Hypno.
Timid sounds good, since he's not that ATT-orientated.
Hypno has equal base Atk and S.Atk so it's up to you.
But, not to say physical Hypno isn't possible:
- Zen Headbutt, or Psycho Cut (egg move from Kadabra/Alakazam)
- Meditate
- Brick Break
- Thunder Wave
As for Speed, it won't outspeed much even with training only really breaking the 80Spd tier, but definitely pump Defense with Impish/Bold or S.Defense with Careful/Calm.
Well, one of my Impish Drowzees has a nicely pumped Sp. Def. But, I'll try for a Timid, just for some fun.

Been further filtering my Ralts fodder, I'm about to clear about 2 boxes into the Bank.

Those other trainers stumbling through the wreck of an ecosystem on Route 7 will have only you to thank.
Well... Most of them have good IVs! 8D
Posted on: February 09, 2014, 14:33:27
Plus, the ecosystem of Route 7 has 30 days to recover, since I'll be depositing the... Rejects... Into Bank to get some BPs. After the 30 days... 8D
I've got Kadath in the daycare with Gack, my Timid Ditto. Gack's got an Everstone and Kadath hates him because he's not an Impostor Ditto and couldn't fool her. So, I'm waiting for them to have hate sex.
Posted on: February 09, 2014, 06:51:06 AM
Got two eggs from that hate sex. First one gave me a Timid Forewarn Drowzee who's somewhat vain. The second egg gave me a Timid Insomnia Drowzee who's mischievous! AW YEAH
Such hate sex. 8D
Oh yes, I intend to breed that Insomnia Drowzee.
And they will be forever awake... Feeding on your dreams. D:

But remember Hypno's Lullaby! D:
Okay, I just learned event Pokemon can't be traded over GTS, but they can be traded through PSS. Still gonna be tough to get the mons I want. If I get really desperate, I might try to borrow my friend's copy of Pearl and tweak to Shaymin.
I'm not sure if the NPC in the ST cafe ever changes what she says. I've had a couple Pokemon on my team who were in ST, but she still has this to say:
(http://imageshack.com/a/img844/7580/qzn0.jpg)
Runaway, an Alakazam, the squishiest of Squishy Wizards... is ripped.
I think she will only comment on the first Pokemon in your team that has cleared SST.
She's said it even when Runaway wasn't in the starting slot. Mewtwo's been through ST, too. Hypno's recently cleared it. But, I guess Runaway is the pinnacle by which the rest can't seem to stack up. You go, Runaway. I shall rub your firm six-pack abs. Such toned muscles, so strong, much pecs...
Being through ST is one thing, but did you collect all the ribbons for each of the regimens? If you have 30, then they have a chance to steal the breeder's gaze.
I have not collected the ribbons, yet. I hardly use ST. But, I guess I'll put Runaway through it anyway, even though it won't benefit him much, aside from tone those hawt abs of his.
She said my female Aegislash looks ripped.
... I wonder what kind of muscles we are talking about, I guess the muscles in the sash. 8D

What ways were Shaymin obtainable?
I know Darkrai and a few of those other [tornado fang]-hard to legitimately obtain legendaries were obtainable through connecting with Pokemon Ranger or something.
Shaymin was only available to Platinum on localized games. Same with Darkrai.
Manaphy was the one that needed to clear a Ranger mission.
Shaymin: Movie11 event / TRU event / Platinum Oak's Letter / Ranger 3 WiFi mission
Darkrai: Alamos (Movie 10) event / Platinum Member Card / Ranger 2 WiFi mission
That's just english gen4 events.
Gen5 has Dark Explorers TCG Darkrai via WiFi.
So... the best way to do it is to get it through Pokemon ranger.
And I guess they didn't bring Diamond and Pearl's Oak's Letter to the US because of no Fateful Encounter thing that enables Sky Forme or something.
The Ranger WiFi missions were time restricted. Second-hand game cards might have them uncompleted, though most likely not.

Of [tornado fang]ing course they were.
Leave it to Nintendo to make things way more overcomplicated than they need to be. Hold Mew, Celebi, Jirachi, Deoxys, Darkrai, Manaphy/Phione, Shaymin, Arceus, Victini, Meloetta, Genesect, Keldeo and probably like two more pokemon as well behind a big [tornado fang]ing gate of Event-only so you can't obtain them easily. They've gotten better with the putting stuff on WiFi Mystery Gift and Gamestop events but that's still not good. Just leave them as like super-hard to obtain but you can obtain them in-game normally like a sidequest or something.
Holy [tornado fang], and its worse with some pokemon than it is with others. I hate this [tornado fang]ing distribution method.
There really is no replacement for physical events, and a lot of people get left out. They just don't count toward National Pokedex completion.
I just love how Arceus was literally coded into DPP with a scene and everything, and there was, if I remember correctly, no way to legally catch him until HG/SS.
I should really get around to catching him in that game! 8D
Catch him, transfer him, and then catch us some more. 8D
I have a good majority of Legendaries i believe! 8)
I don't. :(
You should buy yourself HG/SS. There's a bunch of Legendaries in that game. Then get BW/BW2 and transfer them! XD
AW YEAH TEAM OF SIX MEWTWOS
It's tempting. I'll see what Walmart has and pick them up. They have B2, at least.
Yeah. You definitely should. It's a step back from XY but still good.

I'm not entirely sure what's going on. Sparkles are raining down on Cagli while Hypno is either about to sneeze, rocking out, or he fell asleep. Or, judging by where the pendulum is, he hit himself in the crotch with it.
My best time in the Tile Puzzle on Hard is 26 seconds. I'm working on beating it, and I usually average about 30-32 seconds each game.

I named mine TARDIS 8)
I'm starting to have crazy thoughts on why I can't hatch a shiny in Route 7. I caught a shiny Roselia at Route 7 previously, and throughout these years of playing, I have NEVER seen 2 shinies on the same Route. I might move to Lumiose Central Plaza to test this out.
Approaching 900...
I do all my hatching in the Plaza. Just tilt the circle pad in one direction and forget about it.
And people have accused my two boxes of Abras being excessive? Pfft. They pale in comparison to your Ralts army.

You'll need insane combos to get rare Pokemon.
*whips out a bunch of puzzle games*
Looks like I'd better start practicing! If it's anything like Sega Swirl, then I should be able to rack up rares in no time.
I don't know if this has been said already, but they need to start working on a Pokemon X Y Battle Stadium for Wii U. I wanna see some 6th gen pokemon in HD. :)
Yes. Yes they should. It would give me another reason to drop the cash on a Wii U.
Also a Pokemon Snap for Wii U.

So I have been cycling around Lumiose Central Plaza. Still no shinies yet.
I've yet to actually start the Looker side quest. I've been mutating Berries, hunting for shinies, and raising an all-Psychic team. I'm also doing some research in Amie, seeing what else effects what.
I found that your Pokemon will respond to their names. Runaway responds to his name. If you speak his name, he'll look up with that orange music note and sparkles. If you just talk without mentioning his name, no sparkles appear, just the music note. So, there is some limited speech recognition.
TIME TO TALK TO ONE OF MY OTHER POKEMON WITH THE WEIRD NAMES, LIKE HUITLOXOPETL.
HOW WILL YOU PRONOUNCE
HOW WILL IT TRANSLATE
Hweet-lox-oh-pettle
But yes, should be fun. Though, I noticed that at least my Hypno won't respond in the same way as my other Pokemon. It could be because he's not named and was traded, but I'll need to test that theory with Mewtwo.
Posted on: February 16, 2014, 07:45:37 AM
I had a thought. It might not help in your shiny quest, but it won't hurt to try. Have you switched out the English parent with any of the offspring? Maybe some inbreeding is needed for that elusive shiny...
Hmm... I have not. Inbreeding huh...
That's how I plan to tackle a Masuda Method run. Start with the parents, and then after a set number of eggs, switch out the domestic parent with a random offspring and continue switching offspring after a set number of eggs. I'll be able to vary IV spreads, too.
I have hatched out every single characteristic. And still hatching. And to be honest, despite hatching that superior potential 2IV male, I'm not looking for IVs. >_>
All the more reason to start inbreeding! 8D
I'll give Lumiose 20 boxes first. If not, I'll in-breed. >_>
I inbred a Honedge with all perfect IVs.
ALL THE MORE REASON TO INBREED
Lol. There's no other way to get all perfect IVs other than in-breeding.
I just left Annie Lennox the Insomnia Drowzee with DrSmoothLove. I just need her to produce one more Insomnia Drowzee, preferably male, so I can start inbreeding.
Just found out that PAX East is doing a Pokemon League thingy! (http://paxpokemonleague.net/rules/)
Totally gotta prepare my team for this.
Okay, I somehow got a Forewarn Drowzee out of an Insomnia Drowzee pairing (both have Insomnia and both are Timid), and the Drowzee's stats are as follows:
HP: 12
Attk: 6
Def: 6
SpAtt: 6
SpDef: 6
Spd: 6
Nature: Rash
Characteristic: Alert to sounds
...Did I just breed a perfect Drowzee?
Name it Ambien!
I already have a Drowzee named Ambien! :P
How about Nyquil? :V
Her name is now Nyquil.
NyQuil
you need the big fuckin' Q
I'll fix it later when I actually start raising her.
Glad I could help!
So... before I start dumping Drowzees on GTS... Anyone have a Xatu they'll breed a Natu for me?
I really do have to start transferring over my Pokemon from previous games. Cause yeah, I technically do

Hell, my entire team downright sucks. It's a good thing I'm not into competitive battling.
If I go to PAX next year, I might sign up to be a judge in that Pokemon Tourney thing. Then I could just be a specific type, like Fire or Electric!
Quickie is definitely a Psychic Gym Leader, which means only one thing.... SHE SHOULD DRAW HERSELF IN SABRINA'S OUTFIT!! 8D
(http://static2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20121024112220/pokemon/images/d/d4/Sabrina_HGSS.png)
I actually have low-cut jeans (blue) and some wrist thingies, but I lack that shirt and I refuse to wear shoes like that, even though I have a pair. They're just not comfortable. But, otherwise, I have a reasonable facsimile of her outfit.
You should totally buy her shirt!
It really doesn't help that in this Sabrina fan art, sitting on the dock with her is literally half of my current team.

See, there's Susan the trap!Gardevoir, Runaway, and Twoey! Hiding under the umbrella is Nyarlathotep, and the Chimecho is what Jingle Jangle will eventually become, once I get around to raising it.
So yeah, you definitely need to draw you as Sabrina! 8D

Name? Silly Lillipup! I don't name mons!
That one-in-a-thousand chance really hit you hard. Rolling all ones until that thousandth egg, then a solid twenty. Congrats, though. Enjoy your new PokeHusband.
I should start breeding for shiny... I have a lot of foreign Pokemon...
I was literally jumping in my seat when I saw him hatch out, being darker, and with blue hair. God, the feels.
And finally, I can start up my Y again. Time to head towards the second gym. >_>
To be honest, I'm tempted to try for a female shiny. But maybe after I clear the main game in Y. >_>

Same with mine. 8D Much to the horror of the other trainer, who immediately asks why, for all the good that is in the world, did I raise a male Gardevoir.
Might as well add Dazzling Gleam for added blindness. 8D
I was finally able to get a Shaymin, so all legends acquired. Now for the rest of the Pokedex. So while I breed and evolve the extra mons I brought over from Bank, I'm gonna train my Togepi finally. I spent tonight doing a ton of Super Training. I focused on speed and have already maxed it out. I have a gameplan that requires good speed. Rest is mostly going into Special Attack.
I spoiled Mewtwo in Amie some more. Puffs, belly rubs, and playtime. Got a Green Poison Cushion for my troubles. It looks like a splatter of thick fluid.
Then, I spoiled him some more and got a Red Circle Cushion. Yeah, it looks... innuendo.
WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO SAY MEWTWO
HE WANTS SOME GREEN IN RED
I don't think it would work out. D:
And I'm not sure what kind of message he's sending with yet another Twisted Spoon Cushion.

No kidding? That was my plan to play girl in White and play Boy in Black/White 2.
I also found out what happens when you wake him up.
[spoiler]He doesn't kill you.[/spoiler]
Although I agree Touko/Hilda was worth it, B2W2 had a stronger plot. But to be honest, Gen5 had one of the stronger plots in the franchise.
X and Y's plot would've been better if they hadn't just shoehorned AZ in at the end of the story and maybe elaborated on that mythos a little bit more.
I accidentally poked Mewtwo in Amie.
He was PISSED.
He clenched his fists and snarled and looked like he was about to kill me. But, he calmed down, and I rubbed his belly and fed him Puffs and played games. And got another green splatter thing.
... I guess he was... Pissed.
Might want to get his kidneys checked if it's coming out green.
GTS is a pit of depravity and troll trades. But, I got a Natu for a Drowzee pretty quick and was able to make a trade for someone. Some person wanted a Kadabra for a Kadabra. I had a breeding slave, so I evolved it, traded it, and now have a female Japanese Alakazam.
She will mate with Runaway and have many, many babies.

That's the whole point of sending Runaway to the daycare. I WANT SHINY BABY
And yes, I will also breed my new Natu.
With DrSmoothLove.
The horror. The slimy horror.
Shiny Abra looks almost like a normal Abra.
MAKE SURE YOU LOOK FOR THAT RED STAR
I actually went through my Abra Army to see if any of them had it!
They didn't.
Darnit.
DESTROY THE ROUTE 5 ECOSYSTEM
Or I'll send them all to the Bank and dump them on GTS and Wonder Trade when convenient.
Once my Bank trial ends... I'm sending my X 3DS for repairs. >_>
Once mine ends... I'm paying for the service and resuming breeding.
I'll drop the bank until I need it again for Pokemon Z or whatever sequel they are going to come up with. Oh, I finished my team like a few weeks ago. Anyone aching to try it out can come online.
My strategy of trading Psychic type for Psychic type on GTS is working pretty well. I have more Abras and Drowzees and I can catch more Munnas and breed Natu. What Psychic Pokemon should I hunt down, next?
...and my new Natu is Japanese.
...and hacked.
... HACKED!? D:
No blue pentagon. Timid Nature, Magic Bounce Ability, its IVs no doubt perfect. I'm breeding it currently. Hatching the third egg.
Huh. I thought that meant it was not hatched in Kalos. Can't remember...
Currently outside Glittering Cave, my Y team is all set: Pancham lv21, Ivysaur lv24, Frogadier lv24, Pikachu lv23, Pidgeotto lv26, Combusken lv26.
I've seen that it was to indicate a checksum performed by the game software to determine if the Pokemon was legitimately created in a Pokemon game, rather than hacked in by a Pokecreator.
I'll pull the Natu out of the daycare and get it rated, along with check some other stats. In the meantime, I need to dump its egg in the Box and let Runaway have some fun with his new Japanese mate.
Dem babies.
Runaway should be able to relax his mind... I think. XD
Japanese Natu has superior potential overall, and I've gotten all three abilities from its babies: Magic Bounce, Synchronize, and Early Bird.
It was a HA female Natu? Cooooool...
More reason why I suspect it to be hacked. It came from Unova, so it could've been hacked there.
Hatched Runaway's second baby, off to collect and hatch the third...
Unova had the Dream World, and Natu was catchable there with its HA.
Might be legit. o:
Possibly. Unless I know for sure, this Natu will just be used for breeding and I'll raise one of the offspring, since I can name them.
Hatching Runaway's fourth baby...

Less checksum, moreso a marker for pokemon caught/bred in Kalos. One of the reasons behind the ver1.1 update for PokeBank was that people had found a way to give the pentagon to Transporter'd pokemon, as it was just a hex value stored in the pokemon.
The pentagon has other effects, namely the metagame for the Wifi Cups, where you can only use pentagon pokemon. Keeps the pesky OP imported pokemon at bay, while creating a new meta.
Yeah, the blue pentagon isn't a marker of unhacked, it's just saying it's native to Kalos. Cause, you know, Kalos is shaped a bit like a pentagon.
Ah, okay. Well, since I'd rather have unnamed or nicknamed Pokemon on my team, I'll just raise one of the imperfect offspring and keep the parent for breeding purposes.
Yeah, lack of a blue pentagon is no cause for alarm.
Unless it's one of the new Pokemon who lacks it. Then it's time to be worried.
I played with Mewtwo some more, nothing dirty in the gifts he keeps bringing. Lots and lots of hearts, though. Ice Heart, Normal Heart, Poison Heart, Steel Heart...
SO CONFUSED POKEHUSBAND
LOL.
Also, I found out I can't trade to myself, Pokemon that has HM moves on them (very late, I know). Have to wait until windmills to trade them to X for PokeDex entries...
Mew Balloons (http://i3.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/704/874/201.png)
I won't lie. Mewtwo is drawn pretty well in this. :)
I intend to breed more Natus today. Anyone want any? Some I'll put up on GTS, and others will go through Wonder Trade.
Worth the double post.
(http://imageshack.com/a/img856/5338/tbf1.jpg)
I don't think Mewtwo can get much more blatant than this.
Wow, that item is made out of nothing but nice innuendos.
Amie is the greatest thing ever. For that and so much more.
I've finished all the evolving and breeding I needed to do. My Pokedex is full. And my Togekiss kicks ass.
I miss my Yellow team so much. X will be my new beginning and I will carry my teammates through the coming generations. They will grow and travel and learn so much and meet new friends and oh god tonight has been some serious feels. O^O
Decided to change up my Y team again, swapping out Raichu for Ampharos. Currently at the most-hated area, Route 13. 8U
Darnit Mewtwo, and I like Natus!
So, a while ago, I hatched a Naive Magic Guard Abra who is alert to sounds. I got him rated and he's "decent all around," with a speed stat "that just can't be beat." So, I have an all-speed Abra. Any possible strategies for this one? I'm considering raising him.
Nice, a max Spd IV.
... But with the drop in SpDef... He really becomes a glass cannon.
Then a glass cannon he shall be with 252 Spd and 252 SpAtt, balance of 4 in HP. That equates to 20 rounds of lv3 training each for Spd and SpAtt.
Moveset-wise... I guess Shadow Ball, DAZZLING GLEAM, Psyshock... And... Argh... Focus Blast.
On a separate note, my Y team has 3 Megas (Ampharos, Venusaur, Blaziken). THIS SHOULD BE FUN.
I hardly boot up X nowadays unless one of my friends wants to play or I'm clearing out my streetpass stuff.
Currently at Route 16 after reaching Dendemille Town, and cleared the whole Lost Hotel. Stopped everything to catch the elusive Super-size Pumpkaboo. Caught the other 3 sizes already.
Prepping the mass exodus from White and White 2 to Pokemon Bank and X version.
I have an itching to battle.
Sure, I'll go a round
I just need to get through this battle in Battle Maison and assemble a team.
Haha, and now 0-4
Well, you did get your licks in and gave me a good battle.
Haha, you're being generous. I got trounced.
I admit I focus a bit more on the competitive side, but I always like a fun battle. ;)
I just throw my favorites out there and go for it.
Once I get my Psychic team finalized and possibly get Karohalva the All-Speed Abra fully-evolved, I'd like to try it out. Currently, though, they're not ready, as I've been doing mostly breeding runs.
I also need to tweak Susan's moveset. It sucks.
I'll be available for battle whenever you're ready, my darling Quickie

I just happen to have many favorites. 8)
I do as well. I just haven't transferred them over yet.
I'm terrible and only battle with the Pokemon I either like or grew to love.
I'm also partial to Squishy Wizards, as in other RPGs, I'm usually playing as a magic user (Black Mage in Final Fantasy Hunting Grounds, Wizard in Dragon Warrior Online, Runecaster in Conclave, I have a Faerie Alchemist on hand for DnD, I used an Air Mage in Dungeon Plungin'...). Squish squish.
Turned the game on today to get my birthday greeting from Nurse Joy. daw.
I'm also going through the Battle Chateau cause apparently I did diddly squat in it before. Well I waited so long, I'm crushing everything with my lvl100 team. My new Togekiss has been putting in most of the work actually. I love him, he hits like a [tornado fang]ing bazooka.
Also getting some extra money. My final quest is to buy everything in the boutiques. Which shouldn't be hard. I sold 997 Balm Mushrooms not too long ago. That's over 6 million dollars.
The Battle Chateau is great for getting free money. I tend to have my team at least mid-level when I take them through, though Mewtwo and Runaway do the work while the rest warm the bench. Those furisode girls with the Audino are great sacs of EXP.
The birthday greeting at the Center is so cute. :3
By the way, Quickie, ready to trade magic guard abra for Metallica the Metang?
Sure, give me a couple minutes...
Pleasure doing business with ya. owob
I went on a Wonder Trade spree and got some foreigns and a Meowth!
Meowth will be spending time with DrSmoothLove in the near future...
Still hunting for that Supersize Pumpkaboo...
Too bad the pose choices for your Pokemon in the PR videos are so limited (one animation or none). I just spent far too much time making a video for Runaway. If I had more pose options, it'd be less dorky. Instead, he comes off as some overly-enthusiastic spoon salesman in what amounts to being a video personals ad.
Lol, I'd buy a spoon from him. XD
Just got my yearly pass for the Bank and spent some time organizing my boxes. Tedious as all hell. Now I'm hatching some eggs.
So, it's paid via credit card info right?
Yes. You need to add funds to your eShop account, and you can add at least $10, which is what I did to pay for it.
Alright... Darn it MaxSoft for not selling those credits in a card...
GOODBYE MY RALTS SWARMS, YOU HAVE SERVED ME WELL BY PROVIDING ME WITH BATTLE POINTS
Just get a cheap prepaid.
None of those either.
Except for Maple Story. 8|
They don't sell prepaid credit cards anywhere?
If I want one here, no.
Online of course, but I have no modes of online payment. >.>
In the US, Club Nintendo is running a promotion where if you register a 3DSXL or a 2DS and one of six certain games in March, you get a free download of X or Y. I would think there would be catch here that the games and system have to be actually bought in the month of March, but there's no fine print anywhere that says that. So if you haven't registered this stuff yet, like me, go get free Pokeyman and get the Mega Stones you couldn't get.
I'm already trying to plan out my route for the other game. Namely, I want to use a completely different team from the one in my Y version (Blaziken, Blastoise, Ampharos, Aegislash, Krookodile, Togekiss). I'm thinking so far I want Greninja, Charizard, Lucario, Gardevoir, and Golurk. Not sure who the last slot would be yet. Either an Electric type or an Ice type.

Would the prepaid cards Nintendo sells do the trick as well?
Yeah, because there's an option for that, too.
Note to self: Consider getting those on occasion.
Are they giftable? I love gifts. O^O
Well... I could buy one here and mail it to you, so yes.
Technically yes.
Quickie you'd just need to scratch off the back and give Wily the code there. He enters it in his 3DS eShop and BAM credit for Bank.
Done and done. I'm heading to the store tomorrow, so I'll pick one up.
D:
That accelerated quicker than I thought.
Think of it as a late birthday present. :3
O^O
RALTS FOR ALL
YAAAAAAY! :D
On another note, this:

sums up my thoughts when Mewtwo does this:
(http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/4580/oz1e.jpg)
MEWTWO FOR DAWWW
Naturally, I go to play with him and he does just that. ohai thar Mewtwo
No innuendo this time, unless "bent spoon" is one.
It is. It always is for Mewtwo. He's been depraved for too long... All alone in a cave does things to you. Kantwo had high-leveled wild Pokemon...
Wow, that battle was a massacre. Enjoy your hollow victory, random person using a team of Legendaries.
And now, the migration finally begins!
...
It's being persnickety... I'll continue it tomorrow, now that I know how it works. =w=
Interesting enough, smaller pokemon can either do side eye view, or from the top or bottom eye view when you enter Poke Amie. But some pokemon too big for the screen, like Xerneas, or Mewtwo do from the top or bottom only.
Still kinda creepy though. XD
Finally transferred all my important Pokemon over from the previous games. I'll finish transferring the other ones later on.
I'm going back to Pokemon Heart Gold and Soul Silver to catch Mewtwo. Soon I will have an army of Mewtwos and take over Kalos... BWHAHAHAHAHA! *coughs*
Reminds me of that one article that had a team of 6 Mewtwos for RBY.
WHEW! At last, the migration is complete! Now, to rearrange the boxes and get $5 so I can keep the internet boxes.
Heheheh, I have finally seen my shiny ho-oh in amie, plus the shiny Gardevoir I hatched in White version and the red gyarados from soul silver both gone mega. I feel fulfilled.
Edit:: Where'd the double-post thingy go? o.o;
It went by way of the dodo. Don't worry about it, we'll eventually get a script to add it or something. It's not a very high priority right now.
And I caught a male Gothorita. I named him RuPaul. I'm seriously considering raising this one into a fine GothiTrap.
And now, when I get home in a couple hours, I need to trade that magic guard Kadabra to make him into an Alakazam.
Well, I have another Haunter that can be bounced, so we can bounce those whenever you're ready.
And now I'm home, ready to bounce mons!
Decided to get one of my Scythers evolved instead. Highlander is ready to bounce when you are.
It wants to learn Iron Head. What should I do?
Let it. I haven't worked on his moveset yet. Now I'm waiting for slow connection.
Delete which? Air Slash, Double Hit, Night Slash, or X-Scissor?
Air Slash can go.
Thank ye muchly!
No prob. I guess eventually I'll need to start raising Highlander, though I may change his name to Xizor, as that was what I wanted to call a Scizor anyway.
hahah xizor i get it
that was a good game too
I keep saying to myself that I need to train my team more but I just haven't felt like touching Pokemon lately. Is this healthy? Do I need help?
Nah, it's normal. Gonna finally send in my X 3DS for repairs tomorrow.
Ladies and gentlemen...
We have a teaser.
Pokemon XY: Diancie (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6xIs-Po_sTs#ws)
...it embedded properly, right? I can't tell on my end.
A movie already? Damn they really milk the entire series worth of games, tv episodes & movies. @_@
I'd like to think that it was in response to a rather sour attitude toward Newtwo. That's something they need to fix, immediately, so the best way to do it? NEW MOVIE! :D
Nah they always pull movies out of the ass really fast, depending on the season.
Also we already knew about Diancie, Volcanion, and Hoopa. It was only a matter of time before at least one of them got a movie.
Plus Diancie has been officially revealed unlike the other 2.
Just tell me how to sudden mutate my Carbink into a Diancie, and I'll be happy. 8U
I'd imagine it's similar to how diamonds are formed.
EXTREME HEAT AND PRESSURE
Better start grindin' 8D
But I don't have Volcanion! D:
Grind enough and you'll generate plenty of heat. 8D
Hmm.
... Wanna help? 8D
Sure, why not? I want Carbunkle to mutate, too. Got plenty of practice with Runaway and Mewtwo.
Anyone else want to help? 8D
I know PB would. 8D
Sure. LET'S GET IT ON!
Okay, I'm going to try and segue for Tron's comic idea by discussing some fandom activities in general.
On TFN, there is a writing prompt thread and one of the prompts actually got some juices flowing and I'm considering writing a short for it. What I had in mind was a short story based on an NPC battle I had a while back, where while backtracking, I came across a trainer I had somehow missed, and proceeded to massacre their lvl 5 Pikachu with lvl 100 Runaway, using Return (at the time). I'm tempted to write that into a short story, as the prompt was "hit me with your best shot."
Considering the logical outcome, what would be a good way to soften the massacre? What should Trak say to little Mia after obliterating her Pikachu?
We have a trailer!
Pokemon XY: Diancie (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BN_YzuTez8w#ws)
We also have a release date! July 19th.

Finally cleared Victory Road in my Y, and at the doorstep of the Pokemon League.
Pangoro lv76
Ampharos lv75 (Mega)
Pidgeot lv75
Venusaur lv75 (Mega)
Greninja lv73
Blaziken lv79 (Mega)
I should be good.
... That is, when I clear it on the 27th. 8D
Hooray! Now put that all off and go waste time at the Grind Chateau! 8D
I haven't touched X in weeks.
I will indeed put it off, I want to clear the game on the 27th, since I officially started my Y adventure on 27th Oct. 8D
Also, my X was cleared in exactly one month after I started the adventure. Started 21 Oct, Hall of Fame 21 Nov.
My X 3DS is finally back from repairs... And the first thing that happened?
[spoiler]I fished up a shiny Gyarados. 8D[/spoiler]
HIISRIHFUNDJANNXUEAGIDNJRIUWHUOH
Back to breeding that Japanese Alakazam...
So... Mixed hordes.
I'm trying to catch a Seviper at Route 8, and normal encounters have not been working. So... I tried to Horde one out using my Sweet Scent Weepinbell. I know it was mentioned that rival species will attack each other, but...
GODDARNIT 4 ONE 1 IT'S SO HARD TO SAVE THAT SEVIPER WITH STUPID [tornado fang]ing STAB QUICK ATTACK ZANGOOSES WITH [tornado fang]ing STAB SCRATCH
That horde encounter is precisely the only reason Susan still knows Heal Pulse.
Now I know what kind of chore I'll be looking at once I start spreading Honey around.
...that sounded better in my head.
... *heart scales Heal Pulse for Gardevoir*
And why Honey when you can use your musk as Sweet Scent.
... Yep, better in head.

X? Well yeah Seviper doesn't appear normally so...
They really should implement some system of allowing you to catch a pokemon in a dual/triple/horde encounter. Can't aim, what bullshit that is.
X does have it appear, just more rarely than Zangoose. The opposite is for Y.
And still not working when Quick Attack gets priority. >_>
Argh. I was wrong. Seviper really does not appear in X outside of the mixed horde. -AC
I guess I'll self-trade with my Y, or catch it from my Friend Safari, since my Y code gives out Sevipers.
That's where I got my Seviper. Though, I'll try fishing one out of a mixed horde. Susan also knows Hypnosis. Maybe Hypnosis/Heal Pulse will work.
Thing is... All the Zangooses know Quick Attack, and they all attack the lone Seviper first. You need to predict, but even then, because Quick Attack has priority, it will go first before Hypnosis/Heal Pulse.
If only the mere sight of my Hypno would put them all to sleep...
This horde encounter will be interesting once I start hunting it down. Hopefully I have some sort of strategy by then. Either way, I'll get a Zangoose out of the mess.
Still looking for the Heatmor/Durant horde, along with the Sudowoodo/Trevenant horde...
... I need to find the Sudo/Tre horde. Wonder if they will attack each other.
I gave up on the Seviper. But got a HA Taillow from it.
[spoiler]Oh my god. While trying to find a Pachirisu in Route 12, I encountered (and caught) a Shiny Tauros. Same place I caught a Shiny Slowpoke.[/spoiler]
I need a shiny Slowpoke :C
GUYS I NEED A FAVOR
anyone got a feebas? :<
Nope.
Want an Abra? 8D
It's cool I got a crapload of Ralts (Not nearly as many as DWII though) and Noibats.
Got a Treecko with the "Unburden" ability over Wonder Trade. I wonder if it would be worth it to breed the thing. *scratches chin*
Scored a Feebas for a Zygarde. Worth it.
But really, I'm gonna start breeding these things and just open a charity. Start putting them on the GTS for like, fodder or semi-decent 'mons and make them a little easier to acquire instead of offering them for [tornado fang]ing untradable Celebis.
WHY IS EVERYONE ASKING FOR A [tornado fang]ing CELEBI? WHY IS IT ALLOWED ON THE GTS?
I need to GTS some of my Abras, along with breed the starters I got through Wonder Trade and GTS those. I got a Snivy a while back.
I have Oshawotts, Cyndaquils, Treeckos, Chikoritas, Fennekins, Chespins, Mudkips, and Froakies.
YES FEAR MY RALTS
Ahem, been fishing in X... At Route 12 still, trying to hook up Huntails.
Feebas Charity's been a success so far. I'm gonna need more eggs though.
Hooray for ugly fish!
I'm just going around all the routes and caves to catch all those that I missed in my main run of X. Currently at Terminus Cave, Hording Arons, and if I'm really, REALLY lucky, Rock Smash a Shuckle.
I need to go get all the mons I missed. I want to find that fabled rustling bush so I can get an Audino. Also, Rock Smashing for Shuckles. I also want a Noibat, but haven't gotten one, yet.
Audinos... Those buggers at Route 6... Stay close to the two rows of round bushes. After multiple Venipedes, Audino should appear.
Shuckles appear very rarely in rocks after Terminus Cave.
Noibats... I think Terminus Cave and onwards too. One trick is to walk, instead of cycling/skating to get the encounter.
For more in-depth locations... Bulbs and time traveling helps a lot. :P
Noivern, Goomy, and Altaria are the only Dragon Types worthy of my love.
Anyone here watch Twitch Plays Pokemon (http://www.twitch.tv/twitchplayspokemon)? Though while quite boring most of the time, some of the stories, fan work, & pokemon they catch/release unexpectedly is either quite unique, or ridiculous.
They finished Gen I some time ago. They just finished Gen II a few days ago. They are going to start on Gen III with Emerald in a few days. Until then, they are just playing random games.
So there's nothing to see, nothing to report right now. At least not until they get started on Gen III. Though I think a lot of the hype had died down when they were around half way done with Gen II.
I haven't watched it, but I see the fan work all over Tumblr. Some people on IRC who watch it give me updates, so I'm only loosely following it.
I'm tempted to get Y and have a Twitch Plays, only with my niece and nephews giving the commands.
My Shuckle hunt went faster than I thought... Onwards to Route 19 for Arbok Hordes... And Super Rod Politoeds!
>On the way back from work.
>Hooked up a female Politoed.
>Didn't Perish Song, caught soon after.
>Tried to hook up a male Politoed.
[spoiler]>Hooked up a shiny Whiscash instead.[/spoiler]
You found more?!
Go and put the 3DS in a box in your closet, could ya? THANK YOU.
Give me your shiny luck.
*funky dances some luck over*
I see this dance ending in another cold outbreak.
*suddenly sports an afro* Say what?
Now you suddenly need to grow like 2 feet taller and become as slim as a model.
... Too hard, even for SCIENCE
Although I caught my male and female Politoeds, I have no luck with my Arbok Horde in Route 19. It keeps raining there, Sweet Scent won't work.
And I don't want to waste Honey.
Not counting Friend Safaris... And that darned mix Horde of 4 Zangoose/1 Seviper, I only have one Pokemon left to catch in the wild in my X.
Hydreigon at Victory Road.
... This will be fun. >_>
Some day I need to get around to catching Zapdos. He waits for me in the Sea Spirit's Den.

I remembered when I was so shocked that I was dive bombed by a Hydregion there. I also caught it I think, or maybe I just caught a Deino and a Zweilos.
So I can save before a dive bomb, and soft reset if the dive bomber isn't Hydreigon. This has become a tiny bit easier to do.
I got a Deino through Wonder Trade, so I haven't been on the hunt for any.
Hell, I haven't played X in a while. I really should be checking in on my Japanese domina-Alakazam who is manhandling my shota-Abra.
That's how I got my Deino. Or was that GTS?
Either way I bred it until I got a male so I could name it Ringo Starr. And that Hydreigon (along with 5 other Dragons) helped me beat the Elite 4 and Diantha.
There's no wild Deino, so it's either you got it on WT, or GTS; I transfered from my W2.
My hunt for Hydreigon continues...
And she finally dive bombed me.
Time to see if I can get a male one, lol.
Ditto-breed for a male. That's how I get my inbred breeding pairs. 8D
Gonna try for a male anyways.
... And another female dive bombed me. Gonna catch it. 8U
I have a male Gothorita. He is the only Gothorita I intend to raise. I need more traps.

You need to get a male Buneary to train into a male Lopunny. Another trap.
... GTS!!
For Pokedex completion sake, I also need to evolve one of my Munnas, but I really don't like the look of Musharna, the Traumatic Head Injury Pokemon.
Musharna has seen things. Just like Espurr. :o
And a male dive bombed me. My journey is complete! >0<
... Unless I do Friend Safaris.
When I first saw an image of Musharna, it was a TCG pic and it looked like some sort of fetus with an umbilical cord coming from its head. Other images make it look like it suffered a grievous head injury. Compared to Flora Print Pillowcase Munna, Musharna is ugly.
That's what happens when you eat the bad dreams. You turn bad too.
... I suddenly feel detached from my X now. I guess I should go and do the evolutions for the Pokedex... And breed some Earth Power Deinos.
And finally... Exactly 5 months after I started my Y game, I have become Champion. And teared up at AZ's reunion with his Floette. And teared up at "singing" Kiseki. Again.
EDIT: And updated the third slot for DrMeowlyII's Friend Safari. Toxicroak.
...I have the urge to teach one of my Alakazams Iron Tail.
This way, it could tell other Pokemon to bite its shiny metal ass.
I really wouldn't it's Attack is way too low.
But... but... Alakazam used Iron Butt! D:
If I did end up doing that, Mrs. Moonspeak the breeding slave would be the one to learn it, as I don't use foreigns for battle. I really need to find out what her name is, so I can refer to her by her name rather than "Japanese Alakazam" or "Moonspeak."
I believe it would be just her name in Japanese. And lol Iron Butt.
I checked through each evolution and her name is none of those. I'll pull her out of the daycare and snap a pic at some point.
Until then...
(http://1-media-cdn.foolz.us/ffuuka/board/vp/image/1373/39/1373394399012.png)
Dat Iron Butt. 8B
Uh Quickie Alakazam can't learn Iron Tail in Gen 6, it has to be taught by a move tutor in Black or White 2 and transferred up.....
Plargle. Oh well. Another excuse to get BW2...

I have no idea what this supposed to be. Is this trailer part of the next movie, or is this for a special episode or something?
It's a special episode, set to air in Japan on 3rd Apr. Since it's Act 1, of course there will be more.

It's the anime that sucks, not the seiyuu.
No one ever implied that but the seiyuu uses the exact same voice so it's quite difficult to unhear if you've seen Naruto before.
Overall I'm not too fond of The Origin and the choices they made for the voice actors doesn't really contribute to that.
From the latest episode:

That Fennekin's expression.
Yeah really, Fennekin looks piiiiiiiiiiiiissed!
Serena on the other hand, looks pleased that he's not talking about the girl.
Silly Serena, Ash is pokesexual.
Ah oblivious Ash...
You know, at first I thought he was saying that because the girl on the screen looked kinda like him. I don't know why I thought that, though.
I just hatched a 5V Beldum with 31 31 31 x 31 31

Currently doing the Looker quests in my Y. Just became stylish enough to enter Sushi High-Roller, as well as enter the Lumiose Museum for free.
I wonder if a certain someone is ready and waiting in plain sight...
I still have to do Sushi High-Roller. I'm just too damn lazy to go through the restaurants and get money for it. Plus my team's still undertrained.
I have yet to bother with Sushi High-Roller because I'd rather get my free money from the Free Money Grind Chateau where I don't have to pay an entrance fee just to battle for money.
Chateau takes longer though.
Did I tell you guys I have a shiny Quilava?
You lose money at the High Roller though. Its more effective to do the three star restaraunt.
I haven't played Pokemon in about a month.
Time to go pamper Mewtwo in Amie again...
You-know-who isn't at the cafe... Guess I'm still not stylish enough.
And yea, Sushi High-Roller aren't worth it, I just want to enter to put that guard in his place.
This man has made a real-life pokemon: Honedge!
Pokémon Honedge - MAN AT ARMS (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJxwba9LWug#ws)
Very old news, the video was posted in the Man at Arms topic in Entertainment though so I guess it would be good to post it here for those who don't go there here.
Also take out the sinister s in the http.
Got the final O-Power from Mr. Bonding in my Y... And the mega stone seller was selling at $50,000. Gonna get to lvl4 in Hotel management, then I'll call Y a day.
Got back to my breeding marathon after a month. No shiny Abra yet. I took the pair out of the daycare so I can breed some Natus for trade, but I'll have my Japanese Alakazam man-handling a Magic Guard Abra again soon.
And speaking of my Japanese Alakazam... Could anyone tell me what her name is? It's not any of the species names (I checked Bulba), and I can't find my Japanese dictionary, so I lack a character chart to look at.
(http://imageshack.com/a/img89/2796/iwap.jpg)
QuickEdit: Found a hiragana chart. Her name is Ramon.
THE Ramon? O:
It happened one morning. Ramon awoke in bed to find herself transformed into a Kadabra. Her parents sent her to the GTS, where she was traded to Trak and evolved into an Alakazam.
Poor child... Traded away by her own parents... O^O
Oh, I caught an Audino last night. He's male, so I named him Doctor Wily. 8D
BREED WITH ME dreamworks

Sounds like a plan if you're still on.
OK, let me transfer them from Bank...
EDIT: OK, coming on now.
And slight correction on the number. Another friend piped up and wanted some of the eggs.
No problem. I'm in, and hopefully connection stays up.
Do you want 9 or 10?
i'll go with 9 then.
Argh, my connection dropped again. Sorry Sapph, that's the most I can do...
No worries. I appreciate what you've done. owob
Have any left? Hang onto an egg or two, and I can ship an Abra and a Natu your way tomorrow (need to hatch the Natu, and I have an extra Magic Guard Abra).
Alright, I'll keep a couple.
So... What's in dem eggs?
I watched the first Mega Evolution special since the subs are out now and I actually really liked it. The fights between the Mega Pokemon were quite cool and really enjoyable! Alan is an alright character and it was really nice seeing more of the NPC characters from the game animated.
Although...

So... What's in dem eggs?
Specifically, I don't remember. But they're the leftovers from my breeding 18 mons for my 2nd run-through (which is why I wanted these eggs traded, because I was gonna restart my game and can't put them in the pokebank).
Oh... The suspense!
Still don't know what teams I want to form with the Pokemon I want to raise. I coupd use more Water Types and a Roserade for Faries.
I bred 18 mons, 1 of each type to rotate through on my next playthrough.
[spoiler=the 18]-Chespin with Bulletproof (will replace the chespin I'll be given)
-Squirtle with Raindish and Aura Sphere (took a couple tries to get the rain dish, and it'll be replacing the squirtle Sycamore gives me)
-Skrelp with Toxic Spikes (a friend chain bred this for me)
-Eevee to evolve to Jolteon
-Gligar with Immunity (got this in a wonder trade)
-Larvitar with Iron Tail
-Goomy with Gooey
-Vulpix with Drought, Heat Wave, and Flare Blitz (I was just gunning for Drought and Heat Wave)
-Swinub with Freeze-Dry (major chain breeding here)
-Absol
-Gastly (this came out shiny)
-Slakoth (this also came out shiny *w*)
-Togepi
-Solosis with Magic Guard
-Noibat
-Heracross
-Honedge
-Makuhita[/spoiler]
So I decided to wonder trade some Dittos and someone gave me a Flareon. Poor Flareon. O^O
Edit: Also has a perfect Defense IV, perfect if you want breed an Eevee to raise into a Leafeon.
A Japanese player WT'd me a Snorlax. The in-game Snorlax. Poor Snorlax.
I got a Jolteon through Wonder Trade. I think i was trading Drowzees at the time.
And here I sit with the two eggs for Quickie.
Don't sit for too long... They might hatch.
hay you guys I have X
my FC is: 4313-1513-8737
feel free to add me~
Also: do friend safaris change if you start a new game?
I think it's specific to friend code. Oh and just so you know Mirby can't add you because the limit for Friend Codes is 100 and she hit that a long time ago. You can also post that in the Friend Code thread too.

I watched the first Mega Evolution special since the subs are out now and I actually really liked it. The fights between the Mega Pokemon were quite cool and really enjoyable! Alan is an alright character and it was really nice seeing more of the NPC characters from the game animated.
Although...
(http://i.imgur.com/qw7iCPk.jpg)
If you say so...
His outfit is AMAZING!!!
>His
About that...
*looks closer*
Ahhhhhhhh! Right.
Also, I must say, I was very happy this weekend. The PAX Pokemon League thing was absolutely fantastic. Getting to go around PAX and challenge Gym Leaders & earn Pokemon Badges was really awesome. I like that each trainer had a different theme as well. Fairy Type, Ground Type, etc., as well as a "Pink" only gym leader, a Japanese Folklore Gym Leader, an "Alien" looking Pokemon Gym Leader, and so on. Really well done. They have beginner level trainers, intermediate, and veteran/advanced level trainers, so everyone could enjoy it.
I managed to win 8 badges, but didn't have time to challenge the Elite 6. But I was very happy with the team I had. Porting over my old Pokemon from the bank really helped.
I still don't know what additonal Pokemon I want to train, there's so many I want to try.
I almost considered talking about Hypno's Lullaby during a paranormal panel when the discussion went to creepypasta. Does that count? 8D
Hmm... I wonder how far I'll get before I crack on my plan to go through with just the 18...
Oh, I'm hatching some eggs, and I forget what's in my backlog. Once I get another Natu hatched, I'll hop on for the trade.
Alright then. Once these two eggs are sent to a good home, I'll be able to start my new game.
Okay, ready when you are.
Thank ya muchly!
No prob. Now to hatch...
...after a random battle when my team was more eggs than Pokemon, and then trading with someone who was trying to get legendaries from me, but all I offered were Munnas, one of my baby Absols, and a Drowzee.
I am not giving up my legendaries. 8|
And at least that random battle wasn't a total curb-stomp. I actually stood half a chance.
*sigh* This is frustrating... I put in the time and effort to get a couple items to send into my new save to give me a slight head start. Specifically, I got a razor fang to evolve gligar to gliscor. Unfortunately, I didn't count on pokebank not taking items. So now I'm sitting here more than a little steamed.
By the way I'm starting to get back into the game a little now so if you ever want to battle, trade or whatever else just let me know.
I would like to battle you again with my somewhat new team. It'll have to be another night/week, as work has me going in at 3:30AM for this week.
I got some pretty good stuff from the wonder trade the other day:
Ninetales
perfect IV ditto
and a shiny drowzee
This is the first shiny pokeymans I've ever had.
Give us pictures of your new dream-eating baby! :3
Oh, three more trailers have been released, one of them mentioning a free Diancie with purchase of theater ticket (I think, gathering what Meowth was babbling about while holding a 3DS while Team Rocket held movie flyers).
I don't feel like linking them as I'm busy, so check out the PokemonCoJp YouTube channel.
I really like Diancie, both in appearance and use. I really want one to use but it look like I'll still have to wait awhile.
By the way, I'm up for battling at the moment if anyone is around and wants to.
I'll go a round and see if the team I took to the Pax Pokemon League can hold up to yours.
Alrighty then! I am ready now.
That was an odd amount of crits on my end.
You also, irritatingly enough, got lucky with that burn at the beginning.
Yes, that saved my ass too.
Oh my god stop criting (not that it mattered on that one but still!)
Yeah, getting ridiculous.
Damn that mummy! XD
That was a damn good battle though.
Yeah, it was. I was running low on Heavy Slam.
Lemme switch up my Battle Box.
Alright, I'll change up my own as well. I have way too many battle ready Pokemon these days.
You know, I totally forgot to give Mecha Gojira a Rock move! XD
Also, first time I've seen Charizard X in battle. Looks awesome.
He's actually a new addition that I trained up really recently, I was inspired to try one out after the recent Mega Evolution anime special. I must say that I'm pretty pleased with it even if ultimately Y is the superior choice.
Yeah, he looked great, both looks and power. I'm happy that Mismagius held her own for a while.
I also need to find a way to get some Tyranite.
My favorite Mega is still Mawile but I've been trying to avoid using it lately since I have this bad habit of building teams that overall get utterly obliterated by fire and ground attacks - really not two types you want a big weakness to at all.
Also:
Pokemon X/Y Unreleased Moves (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xshtQTWooww#ws)
My two favorites are still Mega Charizard and Mega Garchomp, but I have yet to get Mega Tyranitar.
Also, what did you think of my first team tonight?
Going from the look of the two 'Thousand' moves, I think it's pretty apparent that they'll will Zygarde's signatures. I wonder what they have planned for it the next XY version? Also, one more:

The first one? I thought it was pretty good! You did beat me with it after all.
Thanks. I still need to work on some more, but I'm glad I have a decent team I can go into battle with.
Victini in Amie is absolutely adorable! owo
I'm actually tempted to try out for this! (http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-news/audition-to-be-a-pokemon-event-commentator/) But my job would probably prevent me from doing it.
I'm not even in the same continent. 8D
I need to play with some of my new starters and me Italian Meowth in Amie some day.
Think I'm going to train a Donphan for ths heck of it because I like Donphan.
How are you going to breed/train it? Use it as a rapid spinner?
Well yes, but I'm also going to do some normal Chain Breeding and wacky Chain Breeding. I'm going to breed the Female I got with a Male Sneasel for Ice Shard and then breed a Female Offspring with a male Linoone to give it Playrough since I can't breed to get Stealth Rock.
EDIT: Oh and as luck would have it the Male Sneasel I caught is an Impish nature. It may make training it to learn Ice Shard a bit more inconvient but at least it will take out a step in breeding.

The one they did for Duck Tales was pretty awesome as well.
So a new 3DS Pokemon game, named Pokemon Art Academy, is coming out in Japan on June 19th, that teaches you how to draw various Pokemon, starting from the simpler designs... To the more complicated ones. The drawings can then be shared in the Miiverse.
... I wouldn't mind having a localized physical copy.
Source, with video. (http://pokebeach.com/2014/04/new-3ds-pokemon-art-game-pokemon-art-academy)
Wouldn't the normal Art Academy suffice? It seems pretty useless to have a Pokemon themed version.
But it summons money!
TAKE MY MONEY
... Ahem.
In non-game news, Japan will release an artbook of Ken Sugimori, the man behind all the official Pokemon art. It will cover artworks throughout his 25 year career, as well as an interview. May 27th, at 1998 yen.

I want the art book. I'll be eying eBay for it, unless you know of a good seller.
I'll be eyeing the Kinokuniya bookstore to see if they will bring it in.
We have one of those here in NYC!
I want! D:
If I see one there, I'll let you know & pick one up for you then mail it to you.

Hm.
I am thinking this:
Timid/Modest Nature
-Super Fang
-Draco Meteor
-Air Slash
-Boomburst
Can't check the nature right now, but I have two of those moves as it is, so I guess I'm on the right track.

Wait a minute..... Ken did art for Jerry Boy
(far right pic), AKA SmartBall in the US? I didn't know that. I played that game once. Was pretty good. Though chances of seeing it released over here is unlikely. I am curious as to what all type of artwork of his it's going to have in the book for everything he's done over the years. Mostly all Pokemon, or other games he's drawn for. It be interesting. :)
Also, congrats on ppl who did all 151 Pokemon in Google Maps. Not that there are any in here.
Got jumped by a Heatmor, so I thought perhaps today I'd finally be Shucklin'.
Nope. Nothing but Gravelers. Gravelers EVERYWHERE.
Just keep Smashing. I found mine in the cave just beside Inver's house. Just break, exit, enter, break, repeat.
That's all I've been doing. Enter, break, Gravelers explode in Hyono's face, heal, leave, enter, break, Gravelers explode in Hypno's face, heal, leave, lather, rinse, repeat.
Susan learned Dream Eater, so he's tackling the Gravelers now.
That's why I love Aile. She laughs in the face of Explosions. 8D
Get Mewtwo up, and have Hypno hold the Lucky Egg for double Exp.
Mewtwo makes a great meat shield, so he'll handle the Graveler bombs this next run after I sell that Star Piece I found from the last run.
And considering that I've been doing this Shuckle hunt for a while (two days worth so far), and since Hypno's been doing most of the work lately for grinding purposes, I think he's starting to develop a complex...
Hypno: Gravelers to the right of me... Gravelers to the left of me... I'm telling you, I can't take it anymore! I'm going... MAD!
Graveler? Hah.
I somehow managed to raise Venusaur with an ungodly speed stat so I've never had a problem with self-destruct.
Mewtwo laughs at Self-destruct.
Though after the twentieth Graveler using it, it does get annoying.
It also forces me to OD my Hypno on Hyper Potions.
FINALLY!
After slogging my way through the Graveler Gauntlet, after having to overdose my now-insane Hypno on Hyper Potions after every single damn Graveler repeatedly blew up in his face, after feeding Mewtwo a bushel of Leppa berries to replenish his Earthquake after dealing with countless of damn Gravelers, after smashing rock after rock after rock and going in and out of that damn stinky cave for a total of almost three damn days of hunting and Rock Smashing and Graveler explosions and Pokemon Center frequent flying and getting strung out on Berries and Potions and explosions, explosions and goddamn Gravelers EVERYWHERE...
I finally caught a Shuckle.
Her name is Oozie.
EVEN BETTER THAT YOU CAUGHT A FEMALE
Since you can see a male one at La Yeah.

She will be spending time with DrSmoothLove so I have lots of baby Shuckles for Wonder Trade.
Until I begin breeding, though, I'm going to invest in some NyQuil for my now-traumatized Hypno...
(http://imageshack.com/a/img836/3190/3b6g.jpg)
Well, he HAS Insomnia... No biggie. owob
This one has Forewarn.
Well then. His ability didn't Forewarn him enough!
God, come to think of it I really need to sit down and work on Yuuta (Typhlosion) and Shiva (Noivern).
Their defensive stats are horrid.
My main Hypno's speed is dismal, his attack and defense blow chunks, his special attack is meh, and the only thing he has going for him is his special defense and enough HP to not outright faint when a Graveler explodes in his face. He's really terrible and I've since bred better Drowzees with better Natures, better stats, and friggin' Insomnia.
Yet I keep using this one. It's not like he's my only Hypno, as I have Kadath, my female Hypno with better stats. Eh, I'll get around to raising better ones after I'm done raising this one.
I wonder how his newly-acquired PTSD will help his Forewarn...
Yeah my 'mons stats really don't make sense.
My Venusaur is ungodly fast yet has a mediocre special attack. (Granted, it's defense is up there.) My Typhlosion's Special Attack is overtaking everything else, Noivern's Attack is dismal, and somehow my Sylveon's Special Defense is some kind of legendary.
Everything sounds right... Except for the Venusaur. It's... A mutant.
TBH I don't do much breeding so I really don't know what's "normal".
Gareth (Venusaur) is the exact same I got from the Professor so I don't know it might've been involved in some experiments... Can't say for sure.
Off the top of my head, I have Meat Shield Mewtwo (his HP is monstrous), Runaway the Brick Wall (an Alakazam with a maxed Defense), Hypno the Beefy (maxed Special Defense), Yellow Sign the Slow (all the Sigilyph's stats are rather lackluster, except for I think his Attack), and I'd need to check the rest later.
To me, normal is the base stats of a Pokemon without EVs.
... Of course, your Venusaur must have a lot of speed EVs, or a nature that benefits speed growth... Or both.

YOU DIDN'T DO ANYTHING TO IT RIGHT?!
It's a Timid nature so that probably explains the unholy speed stat.
Yea, timid helps speed growth.
*smirks evilly when head is turned*
I'm not sure if I ever brought this up but Venusaur is pretty awkward in Amie.
I don't know but IRL I'd be a lot more content patting its head than stroking the giant tree flower on its back.
Thing is it prefers the tree.
I swear to Arceus this better not be some kind of metaphor.

Maybe they'll be a focus on Mega Evolutions in these remakes since the story of Ruby and Sapphire is, in my opinion, the most boring and confusing. Emerald did not make this better.

November birthday here too, bitches!
*high-fives back*
Soon... WE WILL TAKE OVER THIS FORUM
... Did I say that out loud again?
... That too?
[parasitic bomb], I wouldn't be able to choose between playing AS/OR and reading The Thorn of Emberlain...
Anyways, I'm probably getting Sapphire.
Ruby's my definite main... But I'll grab both either way.
Meowly gets Sapphire because I like that name more so he gets the better version.
... Yes, yes.
DWII gets Ruby, DMII gets Sapphire.
Pfft, November.
Any July people up in this [parasitic bomb]? No? Nobody?
Okay...
I don't know which version I'd get, as I never played the originals. I suppose I'll just wait for the trailers and such.
Literally the only thing influencing which game I'll use for online/MP play is whether or not you can still customize your player character in the remakes. (I'm betting no.)
Because if I can't tip my black feathered fedora at all the m'ladys I battle, then X is probably going to stay my MP game.
Anyways, I might just get the digital DL of the game so I can have both X and AS available simultaneously.
If it's consistent I think Mawhile will still be Ruby exclusive, wouldn't be surprised if Sableye is still Sapphire exclusive and got a Mega Evolution. It would be viable since Fairy is super effective against it so it won't be too over powered, then again if it's a counterpart of Mega Mawhile........
DWII... I'm counting on you to trade me a Mawile...
Mostly because I'm too lazy to find one myself.

And I'll be getting Sapphire since I always get the second mentioned version.
I also have some crazy speculations running through my head that will probably be shot down when more information gets leaked, but who cares I'm having fun with this.

Good. HEY GUYS WE'RE GOING ON AN ADVENTURE
Now the ultimate question...
Will it have Amie?
Most likely, maybe it'll have an effect on Contests if those are still there.
>0<
A definite buy regardless. Contests here I come!
I mean you have to evolve Eevee into Sylveon somehow since they never change the methods of evolving the Eevee's besides Pokemon Gale of Darkness.
Granted in Heart Gold and Soul Silver you didn't have access to the method of evolving Glaceon and Leafeon since they didn't have the Icy and Moss rocks which was bull [parasitic bomb] since you have to evolve them in Diamond, Pearl or Platinum and trade it back and in Fire Red and Leaf Green you couldn't evolve Eevee into Umbreon and Espeon since they didn't put in a clock function so you had to trade an Eevee to Ruby and Sapphire, I don't think you can do this with Emerald, evolve it there and trade it back which was even more bull [parasitic bomb] since you had to beat the game and do the post game in order to be able to trade between those 2 games and get Mewtwo.
So it's equally possible that they'll avoid that bull [parasitic bomb] and put in Amie or continue the bull [parasitic bomb] and not include Amie and force you to get Sylveon by the methods mentioned above.
Considering how so many people absolutely love Amie, then it would be a crime not to include it. It's so useful in not only getting Sylveon, but also in in-game battling with the affection benefits, and I can see it being highly useful for contests.
A really cool addition to Amie for contest purposes would be the option to groom your Pokemon.

Better than my method, since I don't have my own copies of Emerald or Platinum. That one went
Take Emerald .sav > Load into DeSmuME with Platinum > Pal Park > Extract Pokemon from Platinum .sav > Convert them to Gen5 > Insert them into White .sav > Put on flashcart > Trade to legit Black 2 > Poke Transporter > LOL TREE DEE
Also YES YES YES I KNEW IT WOULD COME EVENTUALLY BUT THE CONFIRMATION WAS SO NICE TO WAKE UP TO :3
Buying Omega Ruby, because I love Groudon! 0v0
Here's what I'm hoping for... Amie, Super Training, SUPER [tornado fang]ing CUSTOMIZABLE SECRET HIDEOUT WITH A COMPUTER/POKEBOX ACCESS.
oh [parasitic bomb] oh [parasitic bomb] oh [parasitic bomb] HOW DID I FORGET ABOUT SECRET BASES?!?!?!?!?!?!
Yeah. They were one of my favorite aspects of Gen 3.
I kind of hope they either give you more options for secret bases than the layouts in Ruby and Sapphire since some of them out right sucked or they make it like the Underground in Diamond, Pearl and Platinum with a huge room.
I think that'll depend on how the game looks. If it looks like X & Y, they can probably expand it more.

Honestly I want that, a Mega Milotic, Mega Glalie, Mega Salamence, Mega Sableye and a Mega Dusknoir. I'm hoping for at least for one if not a few of those.
I'd be happy with a Mega Jirachi as well.

We'll see about that one, I don't think it's likely since those similar to him don't have one....yet.
Yeah, probably not. Ah well.
They don't have to stop at Mega Evo's for Hoenn Pokemon either. Gen 1 & Gen 2 could get some more as well.
That's true, we also need some for Unovan and Kalos Pokemon down the line.

Considering how so many people absolutely love Amie, then it would be a crime not to include it.
They always add in features people love and never utilize them again, people are
whining about them not allowing Pokemon to follow you around like in HeartGold and SoulSilver.
Well, hopefully they've learned their lesson and won't make the same mistake.
I demand Amie playtime! B(
QuickEdit: Tweaked topic for a less-ponderous title.
I remember when I got Emerald I got that "The Balance of Power Has Shifted" poster.
[parasitic bomb] was metal as [tornado fang].
This is a nifty article (http://www.usgamer.net/articles/five-features-to-expect-from-the-pokmon-ruby-and-sapphire-remakes).
I'd like some new area myself. FR/LG added the Sevii Islands and HG/SS expanded to have more area in western Johto, so we'll probably get some new areas.
Since Hoenn is based off of Kyushu in southwestern Japan (and rotated 90 degrees to the left), there's two possible ways they can expand for more area. They could add land to the north of Hoenn (basing it off of Shikoku, which is east of Kyushu) or to the west (since north of Kyushu is mainland Japan). It wouldn't be hard to add new routes out of Fallarbor Town or Route 114/Meteor Falls/Route 115. Or even Rustboro if necessary.
I'd better start training that Metang in preparation...
The online contest idea sounds interesting. I could totally get behind that idea, as it'd (hopefully) make up for my mediocre battling prowess.
I want them to do something similar to a Save transfer for Pokemon X&Y.
Since they'll probably bring back costume changes and some of the other X/Y features, pull an animal crossing and allow your XY trainer to go to Hoenn and gather badges/pokemon, and do quests/buy clothes/etc. And be able to transfer that [parasitic bomb] back into XY, which they could totally do because all the Pokemon are already in there and they could easily patch some extra stuff in.
But of course only have it as either a New Game + or as something in addition to the main game.
And of course, who's to say they couldn't do that vice versa, after clearing Hoenn have that trainer go to Kalos or something.
That would be sick. I always dreamed about being able to have my trainer move between games.
One thing that gets me is that a lot of people complain about the surfing routes in RSE. In retrospect, they really were not that bad, in my opinion. Mr. Briney gave you a boat ride to Dewford and Slateport so surfing was not mandatory until after you beat Norman. It only became annoying after Mossdeep (especially in Emerald) where you had to surf around. Otherwise, Hoenn is my favorite region by far because of the variety of environments.
Hoenn was like the Hawai'i (by that, I mean the Big Island) of Pokemon. By that I mean the island of Hawai'i has eleven of the thirteen recognized climate zones.
I think the diving to get to certain areas that bugged me a little since it was slower. I mean I didn't mind the massive amount of surfing other than the usual high encounter rate of Tentacools and Pelipers but I didn't hate them as much as other people. I just understand why people don't like them, but it wasn't the Sea Foam islands which I think was worse than all that.
Now getting the Regis was bullshit however.
Regis was insane.
It was cool once you got all three then moved to Gen IV and got Regigigas.
You all are missing one important landmark...
MIRAGE ISLAND 8D
... I never found it in my Emerald...
I found it exactly once.
... *murderates Mirby*
Don't feel too bad. I never found it, either.
Though, I did have the convenient excuse of not having the game. 8D
It's honestly not worth it anyway, all there is are some Lichi berries and wild Wynauts which makes no sense since they give you a Wynaut egg in the same game.
I'm itching for a Pokemon battle, anyone game?

Liechis were legendary berries back then, and to have a Wynaut caught at that island...
I seriously hope that they don't make Feebas horrendously rare as in the original games.

If not I do have a few in Y.
Breed me a Feebas? :3 I don't have one.
Guess I can maybe set aside some time on Friday to do that.
I guess I'll Bank Feebas from BW if the time arises.
I think I have a Milotic on hand that I can breed. In Pearl.

Looks like I'll be picking up either Ruby or Sapphire. I am going to assume that they will be backwards compatible with X/Y? If so, my Kalos team will have a new region to explore and new friends to make!

Anyways, just saying, since I can Super Rod them in BW.
I just need one to start a breeding program with DrSmoothLove.

I think he might be mid-level now. 50s-60s, I haven't checked in a while.
Right now I have two Natu lighting up the Love Shack for trade fodder.
I think tonight might be when I wonder trade my leftover, imperfect Beldums...
So here's some head scratching trivia I just learned thanks to TvTropes.
Zangoose and Seviper are well known for being enemies with each other to the point that it's a genetic hatred, however they can breed with each other. That's just weird and puts a new spin on the whole hate sex thing.
Breeding unlocks the inner Tsun within them.
So since I have never played Ruby before there was one music piece I never heard before until today, "Drought".....and it's pure [tornado fang]ing nightmare fuel, I like "Flood/Heavy Rain" much better.
Well, you ARE drying up afterall...

I was expecting "Flood" with a kicking bass beat and more pronouced trumpets, not tinny twinkling nightmare fuel. I mean I always enjoyed Lavender Town's theme and never considered it nightmare fuel, but "Drought" is most certainly pure unadulterated nightmare fuel.
And hence why Ruby is more awesome~
I'm getting Sapphire just because I like blue more.
Groudon > Kyogre but I have both of 'em in Platinum (From Emerald) anyways so once I get White I'll just move 'em over.
Wow the irony.
I could then move them to Alpha Sapphire and then they'll have gone from Hoenn to Sinnoh to Unova to Kalos back to Hoenn. Shiiiiit.
Love Groudon. One of my favorite Legendaries.
I had this thought in regards to the player characters for ORAS; are they going to age-up Brendan and May? Considering that the protagonists for Gens V and VI are in their mid-teens while all previous generations had preteen protagonists.

When I finally get around to grabbing Zapdos, I'd like to bounce him a couple times with the other two birds just for Dex purposes. If anyone needs Zapdos for their Dex, I'll be willing to bounce (once I get him), same with bouncing Xerneas so I can get Dex info for Yvetal.
Oh, and anyone have any spare Spritzee offspring? I may take a stab at raising one into a fine drag queen. I do have a Magic Bounce Natu to offer (I'm breeding more, so I only have one right now. The other is a Synchronize.).

I can trade you the other two birds for Dex purposes, as well as any other Legendary you want.
I still want a Zapdos named Blitzwei lol
I guess my next quest will be to finally capture Zapdos. He waits for me. Time to stock up on Quick and Dusk Balls.
And time to get Hypno ready to face nothing but Tentacools. I think he'll fare much better with them than he did the Gravelers, so he won't be suffering too many flashbacks.

Alright I'm on.
OK... So far, Nosepass, and Onix.
Awaiting the third one.

I'm looking for more Psychic Safaris. Who has them and can share?
Oh, caught Zapdos. His name is Zeus. Who needs his Dex info and would be willing to bounce Articuno or Moltres? I'm looking for Dex info, so I'm just offering a bounce. I have every intention of keeping Zeus and making him into another Fly slave later.
I do!
Coming on X (Articuno) and Y (Moltres) now.
Signing on... and ready when you are.
Sorry for Y... Battling a Japanese... I think.
Want to bounce Yveltal, too?
Hey Quickie, let me hold on to Xerneas for a bit?
Sure. I'll play with Yveltal for a while, then.
Sorry about that, I needed to test something on it.
Ah, okay. In the meantime, I'm totally spoiling your Yveltal. Puffs, playtime, and I'll take him for a romp through the Chateau.
Did you suck all the lifeforce from the Chateau? XD
I was on my way over when you called. But, he's at least been spoiled. He got lots of Puffs and pets. His favorite spot is the ruff just below his chin. It's a tricky spot, but he really likes that.
You tamed a Legendary. o:
I like my superpowered Pokemon to be happy. And chubby from Puffs.
It sure looked chubbier than I last saw it. 8D
You should play with him. He loves it. He's so happy to be played with! XD

So that Pokémon Art Academy thing has been confirmed to be released in North America, Europe and Australia for those who are Iinterested.
Come to think of it, wouldn't Groudon have been better for flooding the Earth? I mean, raising the Earth's temperature with his Drought ability would have melted the polar ice caps. I suppose Maxie did not take that into consideration. 8D

Well I already said he failed basic science so I think that's enough. I honestly kind of believe that Archie and Maxie weren't natives of Hoenn in my head cannon now because I honestly do not know how these guys thought either that this was a good idea, got the orbs mixed up, and that it wouldn't have major consequences. I also kind of believe the TVtropes theory of Maxie being a pyromaniac who just wanted to see the volcano go boom. XD
Makes sense haha.
Also I just realized this is the first remake since they restructured the Elite Four so you fight them in whatever order you want. Think they'll remake Hoenn's E4 to accommodate this change?

It's certainly possible, it would be cool if they did that. There's also the situation with Wallace and Juan and the theory that they'll do the same thing that they did with Drayden and Iris looks pretty appealing.
As long as we can still fight Steven in Meteor Falls with his true strength I'll be happy.

If Steven is still the champion there will probably be a rematch where he's even stronger, and yes they probably will have that double battle since they added one in HG and SS for the Team Rocket Mahogany base.

Dude, that double battle was TITS.
I hope they bring back the Frontier though. I loved that one thing where you could fight alongside another NPC in double battles.
There is only one true Champion of Hoenn, and it's Steven.
That wush Wallace better not usurp him again.
And no, just fighting Steven ONCE at the end game is not enough, minimally make him like Red, so that he can be re-battled after defeating the E4 again.
So I just learned that Furfrous can learn Surf and Rock Smash, as if Ryhorn and Tauros learning Surf wasn't ridiculous enough on their own we now have surfing poodles!

Hey Wily. Have you played with Yveltal since? Or should I babysit him some more? 8D
Lol, he's been played with... Such a strange happy thing of destruction... XD
Hey guys.
The first Mega Evolution special is on Pokemon TV right now.
AAAAAAAAAAAAH I CAUGHT A SHINY ESPURR!!
... LUCKY YOU D:
I named him Mistoffelees and started training him and playing with him in Amie.
DON'T EVOLVE HIM
HE MUST FOREVER BE A PINK CAT THING STARING AT YOUR SOUL
But... but... Yellow Meowstic! YELLOW MEOWSTIC!
Besides, I have other Espurrs who can stare into my soul.
BUT HE'S ONE OF A KIND!! D:
Too late, he evolved.
YELLOW KITTY! :D
Mewtwo still has babysitting duties, and he's not real thrilled with it. He's also a bit unhappy with me because I disappointed him in the face-making game. I'm sorry, Mewtwo, my face is made of stone and apparently I am Brock because I can't open my eyes wide enough.
Well, Mewtwo IS the big brother cat of the family...
Hence why he's the one to babysit. Of all the psychics on Team Psychic, Mewtwo is the best suited to show the new psychic cat the ropes.
I decided to head to Snowbelle and then go through the woods for a Sudowoodo/Trevanent horde, but stopped at the Center to play with my team a bit. Mewtwo got a lot of playtime today, as he demanded, so I played with Hypno a bit.
(http://imageshack.com/a/img843/829/re5e.jpg)

That's umm..
Well...
Wow.
Mewtwo will not be happy...
Quote from: Quickman on June 03, 2014, 08:50:56 AM
I named him Mistoffelees
But only because Mephistopheles didn't fit, right? :(
That and he's named after Mr. Mistoffelees from Cats.
He's at half affection and is starting to battle in the Grind Chateau. He can hold his own for the most part against Barons.
I finally found a Sudowoodo/Trevenant horde and caught me a fake tree. Her name is Fakus Ficus. Mewtwo was in charge of dealing with the horde, so he took some punishment while taking out the Trevenants one by one. The Sudowoodo copied his Shadow Ball and was spamming that. After the Trevenants were gone, I swapped in Susan, who put the Sudowoodo to sleep, and one Ultra Ball later, I had a new Pokemon.
Then, it was off to Cyllage, where everyone was healed and Mewtwo got a massage that was so relaxing that it put him to sleep. :3 I woke him up, fed him and played with him, and got a Blue Light cushion in return.
That cushion sounded normal... I guess Shadow Ball spam snapped him out of his phase. 8D
After that, I got Trial Log and Iron Cushions. Not entirely sure what to make of those...
Mewtwo also got another ribbon today. He got a Shock Ribbon. He has quite a collection, now.
Go for the gold! (Champion, Effort, Footprint, Best Friends, ST, 7 days of the week).
Once I'm satisfied with the team, they're off to the Elite Four. Or, I could just take Mewtwo through. I'm sure he could handle them all by himself.
...Put that Trial Log away, Mewtwo.
It's LOG!
Now I'm getting Iron Cushions.
Mewtwo: It is very hard. dreamworks
...Put that thing away!
I guess Mewtwo is back in the game... But he has competition from Hypno... D:
Mewtwo is definitely back in the game. He whipped out the Deep Hole Cushion.
And Hypno is competing with Runaway for most ripped Pokemon. The lady at the cafe said that Hypno is ripped.
He keeps up the shenanigans and Mewtwo and Runaway will gang-beat his ass for overstepping his bounds.
Oh, and a Lickitung jumped me on the steps of Victory Road.
Gang banging... Licking... 8D
And how the hell do I keep missing trainers?! I went on a honey hunt to replenish my supply and was stopped by Skater Calida who sends out her level 10 Fletchling.
Mewtwo was in charge at the time.
The battle was hideous.
Poor Fletchling... Never able to see its flaming talons.
... Also, the way you worded it sounds like Honey regenerates at Route 4?
Yeah, I've picked it up twice there.
Huh. I must SCIENCE there later.
I think the Honey on Route 18 regenerates as well, as I just got some more there, same with the Honey on Route 12. I'll head out to Route 4 again later and get some more.
I must see a Lickitung horde. If one Lickitung in battle is hilarious, then a horde is really hilarious!
All that licking...
Oh, I forgot about a couple low-level wild encounters that Mewtwo used Psystrike against because there's no kill quite like overkill. Let's swat some flies with a nuclear blast!
And on TFN, in the Diversity thread, I'm really tempted to mention how I'm an equal-opportunity trainer. Male, female, gay, straight, transgender, no gender, Shiny minorities, handicapped by Natures, gotta train 'em all.
Our Gardevoirs are so happy. 8D

And SCIENCE gave me something sticky and sweet.
Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire have recently been put up for pre-order (http://www.amazon.com/Pok%C3%A9mon-Omega-Ruby-Nintendo-3DS/dp/B00KI2OZ9M)
I'm sure the release date on Amazon will change when it gets closer to release, because it's supposed to be November.
It's also up for pre-order at Newegg.
I'll preorder with the same store where I preordered my XY. And that will be months away. XD
Ditto for me. Once I see the preorders up at Walmart, I'm jumping on that bandwagon.
Ditto all over my post... D:
Ahem, so which version will you get?
I'm thinking Alpha Sapphire. Not sure which starter, though. The starter decision is always the toughest decision, unless you've decided months in advance.
I know which one I will start with.
[spoiler]All 3 of them. At the same time. 8D[/spoiler]
I'm gonna start with Cyndaquil.
Specifically the one Pyro traded me that's sitting on my copy of X because I haven't raised a Johto starter in some time.
I'll probably pre-order and pick it up at Nintendo World, and hope for swag!
I think tonight Mewtwo will face the Elite Four all by himself, with Ringman's namesake Bisharp in tow. The amount of EXP gained will benefit the other Pokemon.
Mewtwo, get your body ready...
Well I'll be getting Sapphire, but I don't know if I want to choose a different Starter than Torchic this time. I mean this game easily has some of the toughest and most frustrating Gyms, Norman especially and Combusken is usually the guy I count on to defeat his Slaking(s).
At the same time since I have Torchics galore in Y I was wondering if I should try something else, like I did in Soul Silver when I chose Totodile instead of Cyndaquil. Ugh decisions man, decisions.
I've yet to actually use my Torchic, so I may go with Torchic, but I'm not sure. I'll need to decide. No doubt I'll be using a lot of odd crutch Pokemon, though. I mean, my Farfetch'd went through all eight Gyms and straight through the Elite Four.

You should use a Spinda or Zigzagoon. A Zigzagoon named Ziggy.
Gonna get Ruby.
Gonna rock the Treecko again.
Leaf Blade will still kill everything.
As for RSE being probably the easiest games, the fact that my Sceptile was only lvl 56 or so shows that off pretty well.

I actually feel those are the hardest, also with the mechanics change in terms of Attacks from gen 4 Leaf Blade would be less potent than it was in Gen 3 so you should rock Energy Ball or something.
Does Sceptile even learn Energy Ball?
At level 50 as a Treecko and via TM, yes.
I need to recall my Emerald team... And then adapt for the new gen with more Gardevoir. 8D
And Mewtwo took on the Elite Four all by himself. He had difficulty with Scizor and Aegislash, and Druddigon dragged out Runaway, who finished it off, but all in all, it was a good run. Showed the other lower-levels how it's done, and now Mewtwo is in the Hall of Fame, and Runaway is in it again.
And I just now noticed the concept art in the credits. Nifty!
And now you can create your own Pokedex and Roller Skates!
I wonder what the Pokedex in the remakes are going to look like now, any modern device come out lately that could be an inspiration?
GOOGLE GLASS 8U
Maybe the Samsung Gear.

Go for it.
Yeah, I think that's what I'm gonna do! 8D
Also I just noticed that Brendan has a tan.
Not only Brendan. The whole of Team Aqua are tanned now. I do miss May's bandana though...
I'm really digging Team Magma's redesign... Maxie looks great with specs!
... Although... Since both Mach and Acro are back... Oh god Sky Pillar...
Yeah Magma seems more like business people than ninjas now.
You know, if there's Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre... it goes to follow there will be a Primal Rayquaza, right?
Also Mega Swampert took too many Rare Candies, might get banned for using performance-enhancing drugs.
May's Bandana is gone.
Her normal shirt's been replaced by more summery clothing with some dumb frills.
and... Short shorts over her spats.
I don't really have an issue with that last part.
They'll probably have her classic costume available as a customization thing.
I notice that Brendan's wearing basically a wetsuit. That seems reasonable for Hoenn when you're at sea, but not when you're just walking around everywhere.
Relevant to the TwitchPlaysPokemon Heart Gold Randomized run through. (See attachment below)
There seems to be a rumor going around that there may be 'Primal Mega Evolutions' for all fossil Pokemon. This is based on some interesting information on the Pokemon X and Y site saying that some researchers believe that Mega Aerodactyl is the true form of Aerodactyl before it got fossilized along with Primal Groudon and Kyogre.
http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/mega_pokemon/#Aerodactyl (http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/mega_pokemon/#Aerodactyl)
If this does come true I would love to use a Primal Carracosta.
I just think the Primal thing is akin to, say, Giratina's Origin Forme (or the Primal Dialga we saw in Explorers of Time/Darkness), in that it's just a new form. Not necessarily a full-on Mega Evolution.
After all, isn't is said that Groudon made the land and Kyogre the oceans? Makes sense that they'd have Primal forms if they were around waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back then.
It's still technically a form of Mega Evolution according to Serebii.
If that's the case then I guess we've seen forms of Mega Evolution since Gen4.

Decided to test a double battle strategy last night to test a theory. Pierce the Bisharp has Defiant, so I gave him a Persim Berry, paired him with Hypno, and decided to see if using Swagger would also trigger his Defiance and thus stack the Attack boost. It didn't and Hypno went down in battle, but Pierce still did good. The opposing Pokemon triggered his Defiance, his Attack went up, Hypno used Swagger, his Attack went up again, he ate his Persim Berry, and proceeded to kick all sorts of ass.
The Attack stacked, but not in the way I thought it would. Interesting test, and I may try some other strategies.
In what way did you expect it to stack?
I was hoping that by confusing Pierce, it'd trigger his Defiance, and his Attack would stack. But, Defiant apparently didn't treat Confusion as a status change.
I though Defiant was triggered by stat drops. What you intended sounds like Guts instead.
EDIT: From Serebii - "Attack is raised by two stages when the Pokémon has its stats lowered. Doesn't work on self inflicted stat drops or drops from allies."
Ah, okay, that makes sense. I may play around with the Swagger strategy some more.
Swagger on an Own Tempo Pokemon. They can't be confused, but still gains the att boost. Gives you a reason to train a Spinda! 8D
Looks like Whino may see some training... 8D
Make sure Whino learns Thrash. Now it can Thrash without fear of confusion because of Own Tempo! 8D
Eventually, I'll earn some more BP to get items. I have eight, I think. Just never been up for going through the Battle Maison when I can get rich at the Grind Chateau.

You're going to actually have to seriously train some Grade A Pokemon for the Maison, seriously that place is not for the people who don't play competitively.
You can also earn BP at the Battle Institute in Lumious. Or be like me, and convert my Bank points to BP. :P

So far, I have cleared the Single Battles with my game team. Currently at round 15 for Doubles.
Decent for a challenge, though. I haven't had too much trouble there with my rinky-dink team.
Might check out the Battle Institute, though.

Yeah Battle Institute is shorter, though they grade you really hard.
It's not too bad at the BI... Until they start throwing legendaries at you. All 3 slots are legendaries. I managed to beat a team with Suicune, Raikou and Regigigas with my Y team... Which then died to Landorus, Terrakion, and an unknown legend.
Yeah those [tornado fang]ing Legendaries.
Anyway I was thinking of making a Rain Team around Mega Swampert with a Goodra with Hydration, Jynx with Dry Skin, a Whimiscott and an Eletric type Pokemon that is not a Galvantula and I'm leaning towards Magnezone.
I need one more Pokemon for this team.
Who's your Rain Dancer? Drizzle Politoed might be needed, unless your Whimsicott is a Prankster Dancer.

Unfortunately Whimsicott is one of the few Pokemon who can't learn Rain Dance. Maybe my Gengar, he's pretty fast after all.
Huh. Drizzle Politoed... Or Goodra could Dance, since it's quite bulky. A Dancing Gengar sounds like a waste for a move slot.
Yeah Dancing Goodra would be a good idea, and I can keep Taunt on Gengar for those who Protect/Aegislash.
And there's your six. And since Rain, Magnezone must have Thunder, and Whimsicott with Hurricane because why not. So who will hold the Damp Rock?
Maybe Magnezone? I might give Rain Dance to Swampert as well just in case.
Hmmm... Wonder how Mega Swampert's stats distribution is like... Also, since Mega Sceptile is Grass/Dragon... 4x ice... Nice. :P
Depending on how you get Mega Stones I might get a Sceptile for the game since I already have a Mudkip in Y. I just need my brother to finally get a 3DS, I'm somewhat hoping that E3 for the PS4 doesn't make him want to immediately buy it.
Mega Sceptile, Mega Blaziken, Mega Swampert, Mega Manectric, Mega Gardevoir, Swellow.
... SO Lopunny-sided. 8D
Swampert confirmed for best Mega btw
Do tell?
I just mean appearance-wise. It looks like he ate like 50 Swampertites and just buffed up instantly. It's hilarious.
Checked out the BI, and Mewtwo sat on the bench and watched me be a meh battler. Oh well, at least I still get swag and BP, more than I've gotten at the BM (what an unfortunate abbreviation) so far, so I may start going there for my BPs.

I want to keep Night Slash. Embargo, Torment, and Agility are slated to go. Any other suggestions?
Night Daze should be coming up, his signature move. Pity he can't be pumped with Psychic.
Night Daze is better for him, his Special is better and he learns it at 64. Flamethrower, as mentioned before, Focus Blast, and Shadow Ball.

Keeping Night Slash until he learns Night Daze (or until I get to windmills), already ditched Agility for Flamethrower and now to teach him Shadow Ball and Focus Blast.

I'm sure you've seen goofy dog smiles. Zoroark has one of those goofy dog smiles. Mouth hanging open and wide eyes in this goofy smile like some bad class picture. I laugh every time I see it, and of course Mandrake hears the laugh, smiles, I laugh, and he keeps on smiling.

Suddenly reminds me of Toothless from How to Train Your Dragon.
Pyro knows what's up.
Mewtwo was in a foul mood earlier because he wasn't allowed to battle at the Institute or Maison. He couldn't go through the Grind Chateau either because I was training Mandrake and Mistofelees. Nothing but Dangerous Smoke Cushions from Mewtwo. He wasn't very happy.
So, I decided to take him out to Le Yeah for dinner. He battled alongside Susan and Hypno, though some of the dishes were a bit... squicky for his taste. Steamed Slowpoke tail? 180-year-old cheese with washed-rind seasoned with female Arbok Toxic? Le yeah no.
But, the dinner battle improved his mood. He got out the Shallow Hole Cushion. A happy Mewtwo is apparently a horny Mewtwo.
Smoke and holes... Smoke and holes...
Got a blue Dangerous Smoke Cushion from Mewtwo when he found out that other people at the Institute use Legendaries, but he's not allowed there. Clone discrimination! He should lodge a complaint and get the Genetically-Modified Organisms Anti-Defamation League on the case!
But, he's happy now. He got to battle.
Any more Mysterious Eggs of questionable origin?
Just from an orgy that took place in the playroom by visitors.
So much !, and !!, and !!!
Mandrake was the one to watch it all go down, too.
With his 8D face.
Anyone hungry? (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=heQbejQkBlI)
Now I am, because all of those would make better meals than that Slowpoke tail and aged Arbok Toxic cheese made with female Arbok Toxic.

After several female Sneasels, I finally caught a male. Now the ratio is 8:1. DAYCARE ORGY
And while looking for rare dive-bombs on Victory Road, I encountered my traumatized Hypno's nightmares. Bad enough that Rock Smashing unleashed a Graveler, and then the subsequent random encounter was a Graveler, but then I spread some Honey and got a Graveler horde! And not long after that, what dive-bombs me from the ceiling than a freakin' Graveler!
Good thing I had Hypno boxed at the time. He'd be a gibbering mess if he witnessed any of that.
Never found the Pokemon I was looking for, but I did manage to lure a Lickitung horde. Got a good laugh from that.

The 3DS allows for DLC. Even Pokemon has been patched twice already. I'm pretty sure content updates are possible for X/Y.
Either Nintendo uses SpotPass to distribute an update or they release a patch on the eShop. Both are viable options.
I get my updates through the eShop, though I did get one through SpotPass when I was in Hanover. My only StreetPass, too. No StreetPasses in my neighborhood and I never got one in Gettysburg, but the one time I'm in Hanover... StreetPass galore.
You don't get Spotpass at your house?
You should if your 3DS is on Wi-fi.
No she just happened to get it in Hanover. She can't get Streetpasses in Gettysburg because the population doesn't seem to have a lot of people with 3DS' s, not that I'm suprised.
StreetPass =/= SpotPass
Yeah, I just so happened to get a SpotPass in Hanover when I got my only StreetPass. I've gotten a SpotPass in Gettysburg, but never a StreetPass.
Remember the Google Maps April Fool's prank, and how they said that the lucky few who caught them all would receive a gift?

Awesome.
You know the Pumpkaboo's call? It sounds similar to a red-winged blackbird's call.
Red-winged blackbird singing (http://youtu.be/WxVL9nBMapE)
They're all over my neighborhood, usually hanging around in the drainage ditches. Every time I go by them, the birds are singing and they sound like Pumpkaboos.
Speaking of... I have yet to catch the Extra Large pumpkin.
Same here. Ditto with the runty one.
QuickEdit: Caught 'em all. Named the jumbo one Big Boo and the runty one Lil Boo.

Charmander toasting marshmallows is adorable, although I have a feeling that Squirtle is about to learn Fly. *cough*
Personally, I think the most adorable one is Torchic practicing fighting with Mega Blaziken! 0v0
It is adorable too, is it just me or is "Mega" Venasaur kinda hard to tell apart from normal Venasaur?
I admit I never really glanced at the Mega Designs except Charizard and Blastoize though.
Yeah, I feel the same about Mega Venusaur!
Still got Kung Fu Fighting stuck in my head and maybe Eye of the Tiger too.
RISING UP....BACK ON THE STREETS!
DID MY TIME, TOOK MY CHANCES!!
And now I'm imagining Sakura training to this music! 8D
Eh honestly she would probably train to Chrono Trigger or Tohou music to be honest.
I should take my mid-levels through the Grind Chateau while Eye of the Tiger plays.
You totally should!!!
I also need to remember what type of Pokemon I have in my box. The other day, I was out hunting and came across an Absol with Pressure and was like "OMG I DON'T HAVE THAT" and caught both a male and a female.
I look in my box later and I already had five.
Super Luck is much more useful if you're not Mega Evolving, Pressure is better suited for a tank.

Who are you training right now anyways? XD
I have one Super Luck Absol I got through Wonder Trade, so I plan to breed it. The rest are Pressure Absols. Anyone want any? I have tons. 8D
As for who I'm actively training, that'd be Mandrake the Zoroark, and Cagli's finishing her training. Still haven't quite figured Susan's moves yet, so she's leveling, along with Yellow Sign, who is a Berry Harvester and Fly slave. Shell-shocked Hypno's just leveling, and he's set to leave the team. I have a Timid Hypno and a Timid Drowzee lighting up the Love Shack as I try to max a Speed IV, and Mistofelees will rejoin the team once there's room.
I'm going to start training one of my Natus soon, and I have one picked out and named. Cassandra is Timid with Magic Bounce. I also have Magic Guard Karohalva the Abra to train. I'm going to start getting into some of the starters that I have, after I get some babies out of them.
You can only max a Speed EV, IV's are set by birth.
Whatever, I'm maxing something related to speed. Got two Timids gettin' it on, something speedy better come out of that union.

Uh Hypnos are not fast even at max speed.
I know, but it's not stopping me from trying. CHALLENGE!
Speaking of Hypnos that sig of yours is haunting my nightmares. :'(
Mwuahahaha...
I should bring back the twitchy Espurr...
Sure you laugh now but one day Blue is going to turn around and get dragged off into the darkness by an evil Hypno. :P
Twitchy Espurr, I remember that. :'(
My Timid Drowzee thinks she's too good for my Timid Hypno. She needs to submit to his charms and make me some eggs. The alternative would be Timid Ditto sex. She should be happy with that Timid Hypno! He even got some training!
I won't lie pokemon breeding is well beyond me, I still have no idea what EV training is either. XD
I'm very, very slowly learning the breeding, but my knowledge is limited to Natures and Abilities, so I breed for those. Otherwise, I'm breeding to have trade fodder or breeding for shinies.
If the egg I have hatches into another Timid Drowzee (male, preferably), I may swap in the offspring. Though, my female is getting it on with one of her offspring already...
Pokemon husbandry is squicky. So much incest...
So how do natures work anyway? Do they effect stats, as for breeding I seem to remember offspring being able to inherit powers they normally could not?
Natures will boost one stat while lowering another, though some are neutral. My Mewtwo has a Serious Nature, but it's neutral. Some Natures hinder while others don't.
Sakura can tell you more. That's the extent of my knowledge. At least I'm slightly beyond the "yep, that's an engine" stage now.
Fair enough, guess this is mostly for competitive play rather than single player?
Yeah. I'm a casual battler, but I'm experimenting.
And I caught the jumbo Pumpkaboo! It has a different cry! I named mine Huge Boo. Now I have Lil Boo, Pumpkaboo, Big Boo, and Huge Boo.
Yeah the extensive breeding is more for competitive play than single play. Pokemon can also inherit the moves of parents, IVs, and certain abilities will appear more often if the parents have that ability than the other one they can get. You can also pass on Hidden Abilities as well if the parent has them with a 50% rate.
Natures can be passed down with a parent holding an Everstone while IVs can be passed down with the Destiny Knot as of this game.
It's pretty complicated but I pretty much know most of this stuff.
Heh, I didn't notice this until recently, but if you jump off a ledge, your active Amie Pokemon will jump, too.
I really wish that we could get the Johto starters with their Hidden Abilities, I want a Feraligatr with Sheer Force so bad.
All my Totodiles have Torrent. :\
That's the thing, they've never released the Johto starter's with their hidden abilities.
They need to. And once they do, people need to flood Wonder Trade with them.
I should get around to breeding Cyndaquil. Right now I have a Japanese Misdreavus in the Daycare. It's a slow baby-maker. Usually I get an egg after a round in the Free Money Chateau. Hell, I was getting eggs so fast from some of my Pokemon that I had trouble keeping up!
When I get an egg during the time it takes me to deposit an egg in the daycare's PC, withdraw whomever I dumped in to make room for said egg, and walk out the door, then the Pokemon is squirting out eggs way too fast.
There are times I just don't accept eggs because of that, and I have an extra Phanpy because of situations like that.
It's happened to me three times now. I generally just get the egg later, though I have turned around, boxed a Pokemon, got the egg, boxed it, got my Pokemon back out of the box, and left. The breeding leftovers will get put up on Wonder Trade or GTS, so I accept all eggs and hatch them in batches of three.
Speaking of which I'm missing a Chimchar.
I'm missing every starter from Unova and most from Sinnoh. I was breeding Snivy, so I have several. Missing a Treecko, though I have a Mudkip I can breed.
Snivy is from Unova.
Derp. Then I'm missing most of Unova and most of Sinnoh.
Finally finished Ayla's EV Training, I honestly couldn't think of a better name for a female elephant or even an elephant in general.
Also for the next generation I want the Water starter to be an elephant because why not.
Well, apparently I've seen all the Pokemon at the cafes, so I'm done schlepping around to them every day.

And easily assessable like in the Friend Safari.

Would breeding more make it legit? I've always wondered about that.
So I finally battled a Gym Leader in the Chateau and it was Wulfric.
Ah, the big teddy bear...
Earlier, I battled Wikstrom and Grant. Haven't battled Siebold in a while, though I did see Drasna and Diantha a couple days ago, along with Wulfric, Viola, and Valerie.
Decided to change clothes, I kind of wish they had black cycle caps.
Quote from: Quickman on June 26, 2014, 06:02:47 AM

I do not believe so, I think Nintendo has a filter of some kind. My PokeSAVed Feraligatr with Sheer Force is a male and the breeding mechanics are different in Gen V (i.e. only mothers can pass on the Hidden Ability.)
I think when I get Alpha Sapphire I'm going to raise an Aron.
Been getting a lot of swag from the Chateau lately. Cassandra the Magic Bounce Xatu can pretty much hold her own, now. Mandrake the Zoroark and Cagli the Alakazam helped her out. Hypno and Mewtwo warmed the bench. They hang around as backup, because their best assets are HP, so they make good switch-ins when I need them.
So I finally bred another Mienfoo, this one only has 2 perfect IV's unlike the 4 that his mom has but it's in the stats that matter. I decided to name him Sanji.
If you ever decide to play with a Xatu in Amie, the favorite spot is the beak and the no-touch spot is the chest. They also practically have a seizure in joy. A joyzure, if you will.
And I still love Mandrake's happy doggy face. He makes me laugh, and when I laugh, he smiles, and I laugh some more.
Ayla is getting close to level 50, and Sanji is in his 30's. Once I get a little more money I'm going to breed a Larvitar, and probably name it Godzilla if it's male. I don't know what to do if it's female though.
Then maybe I can finally have some battles, though I'll still be raising Pokemon regardless since I want to have a Roserade, Chestnaught with a hidden ability, and Milotic.
So it's just been announced that Pokemon Center Online is coming back on August 6th.
HOLY [parasitic bomb] CAUGHT A SHINY MASQUERAIN, WHY ARE ALL MY SHINIES GREEN!? o-O
YAY
In one of Ruri's Friend Safaris too.
I'll need to go on some more Shiny Safaris. My shinies are all pink.
nice to know i'm useful for something
I finished raising my transgender Gardevoir, so room has been made on the team. Right now, Mistofelees is on the bench, though he may be moved to make way for Xizor. I'm considering raising my Flame Body Larvesta for Team Black Sun, but I'm not sure. I have a number of potential members for it.
My slow-as-molasses PTSD-suffering Hypno is also finished leveling, and I changed his moveset as he's absolutely terrible for competitive play. He's got the bulk to take hits, so I outfitted him with Hypnosis and he's now a catcher. I ditched Trick Room for Focus Blast so he has some more type variance in his moves.
Now when I take him on catching runs through Victory Road, he's overconfident around Dragon types. "Stand back! I got this." (http://all-that-is-pokemon.tumblr.com/image/30089031002)
What usually happens right afterward is
(http://i.imgur.com/WGMO0aQ.gif)
Hmm should I teach my Milotic Substitute or Attract?
I'd go with Substitute, personally. Attract has a fifty/fifty chance of being ineffectual due to the other Pokemon's gender. Best to just avoid the possibility of your opponent being the same gender and just go with something that you know will work almost all the time.
I guess so. :\
Then again, I'm a casual battler, so what do I know? 8D
Thing is even a competitive battler wouldn't use Attract, which is why I'm half tempted to try it.
Okay, I'm curious...
Anyone else use the Trainer PR videos to (attempt to) make (really) short films? What do you usually make with them?
I only used the thing once, not really into the intro video thing to be honest. Just too cheesy for me, and keep in mind I do love my cheese but not that kind of cheese.
If anyone has an Eevee with it's Hidden Ability Anticipation please let me know, I would love to raise some Eeveelutions with hidden abilities.
I doubt it, but I'll check my box tomorrow. I got a few through Wonder Trade, so there's a chance that I might.
Yeah it kind of sucks that none of my Normal Type Friend Safaris have Eevees.
I don't think mine have Eevees, either. I got Dittos, though. All my Normal Safaris have Dittos. I am up to my hips in Dittos. Every trip through the Safari for another Pokemon has me slogging through Dittos.
Want a Ditto? 8D
I have plenty of them.

Oh,
I have tons. I still have a bunch of 4V Anticipation, I'll check to see if any are female unless you're fine with using a Ditto straight away.
Got any Bulletproof Chespin?
I have at least a Bulletproof Quilladin.
Any of the line is good.
Well, the males go up to 4V, and the females go up to 3V. Up to you.
Actually I only have a Bullet Proof Chespin from Wonder Trade with great Egg Moves. Let me catch a Quilladin for you since I have a Friend Safari with them.
EDIT: Got it.
Okay, working on connecting now (Xander)
Also, I actually found a 5V male and a 4V female
Either is fine with me.
Darn, and I just found an Anticipation Eevee hiding in my Bank. I swapped it for one of my others and I'll breed it later.
Can you breed me one too?
Sure. I have a Mudkip in the Daycare currently, but once I pull it out, the Eevee will go in. Trojan the Imposter Ditto is doing the job, while DrSmoothLove is on vacation.
Okay, Ringman and I made some videos. These are just short vignettes, part of a series of videos we like to call...

I finally decided to name my Houndoom Schwarzen, the German word for blacken, but I couldn't get the a with the 2 dots on top of it.
Yeah, I don't think there's any of that.
Yeah, also started to raise the Eevees, I already evolved one into a Jolteon and I raised another to be an Espeon but then I forgot it was night time so I have to level it up again tomorrow.
I really hope there will be move tutors in the Hoenn remakes because gosh darn it I really wish I could have taught an Umbreon Foul Play.

The umlaut isn't really necessary for the name. There are a few Schwartzbaughs, Schwartzkopfs, and I've seen some Schwarzen in the phone book.
I know but it looks cool.
Oh, if you try recording your 3DS, the best way to get decent video from it, particularly with dark backgrounds, is to put the backlight on its lowest setting, and then film in a dark room.
I improvised a darkroom by draping a hoodie over the camera and the 3DS and recorded. I was also able to isolate the sound a bit better. I don't have a video camera, so I use the iPad, and a darkroom reduces screen reflection and glare.

You know I think it would be fun to make an Eevee Sunny Day team for the hell of it just to be different.
I brought this up in the Thinking thread, but I'll repeat it here.
Would anyone be interested in a Trainer PR Video challenge? Basically, you'd have to make the most interesting video you can, given the limitations. They can be short vignettes, like the examples I posted, or just the most epic PR Video EVAR. With the limitations, it forces you to think outside the box in order to tell the story that you want.
Would anyone be interested in doing this? There won't be a prize, as I'm just curious to see what all people come up with. If the examples took your idea, it doesn't matter. See if you can make it better! If we all end up making haunted house vignettes, then so be it. Apparently, it's great for short horror flicks. :P
Okay none of Eevee, except Leafeon for obvious reasons, can learn Solar Beam and Leafeon's Special Attack kind of sucks. Why do they have to make the move variety of the Eeveelutios suck, especially Jolteon's and Glaceon's, even with Move Tutors. This is why I normally don't train Eevees.
I may need to storyboard my next idea. Knowing my limitations, this may end up being very tricky to do and time it right.
I will make a ten-second cosmic horror. It will star a Malamar. It will include insanity. How I'll go about making this and what the basic plot will be will be tricky. Definitely need to go through the options, write down what I can do, and then storyboard it.
With some creativity, After Effects, and a lot of patience, you could make an entire movie with these, but you'll need to make them in ten-second chunks and string them together in After Effects.

If I have some free time for that, I may try my hand at it. I have absolutely no idea what the theme would be though.
And I'm guessing you unlock more music, expressions, etc. for the PR videos as you progress through the game? I think i'm in the middle or something, as I haven't played in a while.
Yeah, the more you do around Lumiose and such, the more things you can unlock. I've unlocked all of the captions by talking to that one guy in the one cafe on North Boulevard. Not sure what you need to do to unlock all the music and such, though.
...Time to go check Serebii and see what they say! I think I have everything unlocked.
QuickEdit: Yeah, max style unlocks the music and such, while speaking to the one guy in Cafe Action! each day gets you all the captions.

I would but I would have preferred it to be single battle, that and I tried to get a code and it took way to long and again lack of Solar Beam on anyone besides Leafeon who can't really use it to his full potential kind of ruined the idea for me.
However if the Fairy tournament in October is Single battle I might consider it. I mean I already have my Choice Scarf Florges of doom and Para Flinch Togekiss so I'm already a third of the way there. I would probably train a Mega Mawhile specifically for that one if I do decide to do it.
Huh.

Yes, he's focused on Defense and Attack, Special Attack is his worst.

Pokemon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire - Build and Customize a Super-Secret Base and Share It with the World
Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire players will be able to create their very own Secret Base, a customizable area that will allow them to show off their individuality by setting up mazes or traps for visitors to encounter, and even creating Pokémon battle rules, transforming their Secret Base into their own Pokémon Gym!
Players will be able to share their Secret Base with other Trainers around the world using StreetPass functionality, or they can create a QR Code for their unique Secret Base, enabling friends to visit it with ease. When visiting other Secret Bases, players can meet other Trainers in the same base and invite them back to their own Secret Base as Secret Pals. Players can interact and battle with Secret Pals, who have special skills that can support players in their adventures, such as sharing new Decorations, making a Pokémon Egg hatch faster, or raising the level of a select Pokémon by one. The more Secret Pals players have in their Secret Base, the more special skills will be available to help them in their adventures.
Players can also capture flags while visiting other players' Secret Bases. Flags are located beside the Secret PC in each Secret Base. The more flags a player collects, the higher the rank earned, which brings rewards like improving the skills of a player's Secret Pals.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Combine it with Amie for pure awesome.
[tornado fang] YES!!!
Now we need to be able to make our own Pokepuffs/Equivalents for Contests/Amie. And for the love of god bring back the types of bags we had in Gen 4 with [parasitic bomb] loads of pockets, I don't want my Pokeballs in with my hold items.

- this will also share how many flags you've acquired, your crew's name and a personal message
- Aarune is one of the new characters, who is known as the master of Secret Bases
- he's an adventurer who travels around the world but seems to have settled in the Hoenn region.
- Aarune is an overall cool guy who'll be there to tell you more about the Secret Bases
- you can also battle him and his partner Flygon

Still need to start raising mine... though I may breed it first.
I imagine that getting the Metagrossite will be after the game when Steven leaves a Beldum at his house for you only this time it's holding the Mega Stone.
Most likely, yeah. Man, I'm officially pumped for this game! XD
I still want my Mega Milotic, and a Jynx evolution of some kind in the next generation.
I think we're likely to see a Mega Milotic in this game!
She better since Gyrados has one.

Almost done getting my Espeon to level 50, I might actually consider putting this one on a team I like him quite a bit.
Always loved Espeon. I'm raising a new Strike Force EON team right now.
I really like it's Magic Bounce Ability but I need to know the full details of how it works, can it only bounce attacks used against Espeon or can attacks that were already there (such as Stealth Rock) be bounced back or not.
I thought it was just status effect stuff.
Nah it can bounce a lot of things such as Taunt, Toxic Spikes and Simple Beam.
I'm using a Magic Bounce Xatu currently. She bounces back arena traps and status-effecting attacks. However, she can only bounce back attacks used against her.
If she switches in after an arena trap has been set, she is still affected by it.
What I want to know is if the Xatu can bounce hazards that are already present or can it only bounce attacks aimed at it.
Just edited my post to reflect that, as I misread the question. If the trap is already there, she can't bounce it back.
To be fair I misworded it at first, but thanks.
I really like my Magic Bounce Xatu. Raised her from a baby. She's Timid and her speed is insane.
I really am fond of Apollo myself, he has Psyshock, Dazzling Gleam, Shadow Ball and Morning Sun. I probably should put him on a Sun Team or something and probably put my Donphan in there for Rapid Spin support in case I can't predict traps and have to clear them away.
I haven't quite figured out Cassandra's moves, yet. She's currently using Ominous Wind, Dazzling Gleam, Fly (she's my latest Fly slave), and Psychic. I want to keep Ominous Wind, as I like it, but Psychic might go. She used to be using Aerial Ace until I replaced it with Psychic.
Ah okay. Magic Bounce is pretty useful! XD
Very, an entire person's strategy can be destroyed by Magic Bounce. Also debating if I want to raise a support Dusclops with Eviolite or be a hipster and raise a Dusknoir. I think for once I'm leaning towards the Dusclops. :|
Entrainment can make Magic Bounce backfire. It's almost happened to Cassandra, but none of her moves are affected by Magic Bounce. If they were, that Audino who used Entrainment would become a pain in the ass, and the battle would be a pain in the ass.
Cassandra bounced the attack back!
Audino bounced the attack back!
Cassandra bounced the attack back!
Audino bounced the attack back!
All because the Audino used Entrainment.
The thing is that none of the Pokemon people normally use have Entrainment and those that people may use have other plans for that Pokemon. So really you never have to worry about Entrainment.
Good to know.
Looks like Cassandra may find herself on a competitive team. I may raise my all-speed Magic Guard Abra and make a team of speedy sweepers.
Xatus are actually surprisingly good in the Competitive field by virtue of Magic Bounce. They can be used in many ways and have access to a lot of attacks.
Yeah, one of the Psychic trainers I fought at PAX had a Xatu.
I decided to temporarily put my Escavalier, Goodra, Donphan, Galvantula, Aerodactyl and Espeon in my Battle Box. Now I need to decide what item I want to give my Espeon but I am tempted to get a Life Orb for the Espeon.
I also need a nickname for a female Galvantula, I don't think Web Spider is going to cut it.
Well I was gonna say Spider-Woman or her secret identities but those were all too long to use cause character limitations.
But I did stumble upon Madame Web, which would fit lol
I don't really think I like Madame Web, I'll probably figure something out like I usually unintentionally do when I have no idea what to name my Pokemon.
Eh it was just a suggestion lol
Arachne
If it were an Ariados, I would have said try to see if Blackarachnia would fit
I might go with that for now.
Also I know some of the sizes and weights of Pokemon in the Pokedex can be bullshit but how can Spinda be 3'07 and 11 lbs? I mean I understand why Florges, who is the same size, can be 22lbs since she's a plant along with Liligant at 35.9 and a Large Gourgeist at 30.9 since the bulk of the weight is the Pumpkin but even Lavesta the Bug/Fire fluffball of doom and destruction is 63.5lbs! Seriously why?
>Japan getting 3 more events that we'll never get
(http://i.imgur.com/BzDXSTg.png)
How many have we had so far, 3? - they just had that many announced at once! You think with them releasing XY worldwide at the same time, they'd at least have the courtesy to start releasing the majority of the events worldwide too.
I want a shiny Jirachi that knows Moonblast. That's cool.
I can't argue: I hatched two 6V Pinsirs in one batch.
But, uh, that Charizard handout with the opposite stone might be making its way around...?
I'm sure that we'll at least get the Vivillion someday, but the others are bullshit. I honestly would like another surfing Pikachu and definitely another Flying Pikachu since I never had a flying Pikachu before.
Speaking of Pikachu here's the latest leaks from Coro Coro which include more new designs of gym leaders, the Pokedex looking like the GBA, Amie confirmed to be returning and Pikachu at least having many new forms for contests, some more ridiculous than others but keep in mind that the Pikachu shown is female.
http://pokebeach.com/2014/07/corocoro-revealing-updated-character-designs-contest-pikachu (http://pokebeach.com/2014/07/corocoro-revealing-updated-character-designs-contest-pikachu)
Love the look of the GBA Pokedex and happy that Amie is returning.
I was hoping they would change the look of Amie a little bit so it tastes less like diabetes but oh well. And I too like the GBA pokedex, I prefer something bulky for a pokedex than a tablet.
love the new pokedex
and y'all thought Amie wouldn't return lol
I didn't, cause I would think that Game freak would learn by now that they shouldn't restrict the ability to evolve your Eevee to whatever you want.
Well I didn't actually mean everyone, but I know there were worries. But it seems we are in agreement as to why it would return.
I'm glad it's returning. I love playing with my Pokemon.
For those who care, ie no one including myself, Smogon has decided to discuss if they should ban Aegislash from the OU tier or not. To be honest unlike Mega Gengar and Speed Boost Blaziken in any form I kind of agree that it should be banned because his stats are insane and King's Shield is kind of broken.
Yeah, as a novice battler, I'd rather not face that wall. Mewtwo has trouble with it in-game as it is.
Okay I just realized why Pikachu gets 5 forms for contests, each one represents one of the categories. Madam Pikachu is Beauty, Hard Rock is Cool, Idol is Cute, Masked is Tough and Doctor is Smart.
How did I not realize this sooner? -AC
I just want to know if any other Pokemon will get costumes, or is Pikachu just special, like being the only one with a voice?
Most likely the latter.
Sorry, Mewtwo, no playing dress-up. :(
If they're doing Gen 4 styled contests then there will be accessories but otherwise I don't think they will have have full costumes like Pikachu. I really wanted to see a Blaziken in a suit or punk rock gear myself.
And of course Pikachu is special since he's the freaking Mascot, though I rather him than Clefairy like it was originally planned.
Such nepotism...
Though, accessories could still be fun.

If you play by Smogon rules Metwo is banned anyway, so I don't see your point.
If Mewtwo has trouble with it, most of my other Pokemon will definitely have trouble with it. My first run through the Elite Four had a lackluster team, and only my Ariados was even remotely effective due to Infestation.

It's the anime's fault really what with Ash's Pikachu being Ash's Pikachu and getting his ass kicked by a bunch of Spearows and saving Ash's life along with the drama of him not wanted to evolve which has only been replicated by his Bulbasaur, Team Rocket's Meowth who has pretty good reason of why he hates Persians, and Dawn's Piplup, Pikachu almost leaving Ash to join a herd of Pikachu, Pikachu getting sick from Eletric Buildup the first few episodes of the Hoenn series, Pikachu getting possessed by Groudon once, having a temporary bromance with Dawn's Piplup and the times he's been brainwashed by Team Rocket and Team Plasma.
Seriously a lot of [parasitic bomb] happens to Pikachu and I didn't even mention him getting [sonic slicer] slapped by his clone in the First Movie since he was the only Pokemon, besides Meowth, who didn't want to fight a pointless battle.
Watching Pikachu be bitchslapped by Pikachutwo was so great. I could watch that for hours.
They tried to make Piplup into another Pikachu, but it obviously failed. Pikachu is the king of character-shilling.
Nah he's more like Contest Pikachu, the writer of the anime said that the reason he didn't want Pipup to evolve was because he felt that his evolutions were ugly and not fit for contests, which I feel is bullshit since I think Empoleon is beautiful. And Piplup is pretty popular himself, Pikachu is only super popular since he's Ash's Pokemon and the only one who he doesn't leave behind at Oak's lab every season.
The only Pokemon who didn't get left behind was his Aipom, who was then traded to Dawn, and then given away to master the secrets of Ping Pong Fu.
Mega Diancie's ability has been revealed to be Magic Bounce and judging by the screen shot of the Coro Coro page talking about the Movie Pikachu has been turned to stone.
I guess Pikachu was...
8B
Taken for granite.
YYYYEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH
At least this time the plot seems a bit more relevant to instead of Ash meets Legendary/Person/Pokemon that they want to be the icon of the generation and [parasitic bomb] happens. Though it's probably still not going to be interesting, the trailers were pretty terrible but then again I'm not really the target audience for this anyway.

Magic Bounce is a slight improvement over Clear Body but it still needs a recovery move to be of any use. Hopefully it'll be able to learn Recover or Pain Split from the move tutors that should (hopefully) be in ORAS.
What is with all the Magic Bouncers lately anyway? First Sableye, now Diancie...

Honestly, I'd be happy with a non-shiny, as I don't have a Jirachi. Just getting a Jirachi would be nice.
I should really just use the bonus disk I got for Pokemon Coliseum and get a few Jirachis for everyone. It'll be tedious though since I have to start a new game of Pokemon Sapphire every time.

I have a spare Jirachi I'd be more than happy to give to you.
I might take you up on that offer. Anything you'd want in return? I could breed an Anticipation Eevee or a Magician Fennekin real quick, and I still have a few Magic Bounce Natus and Magic Guard Abras. Got a Drought Ninetales I could send to the Daycare.
A Magic Bounce Natu sounds good but don't feel like you have to give me anything, its a gift.
I gave my 10 year old niece one of my Jirachi's. She loves it and takes good care of it!
Since I accidently put my Poke walker in the washing machine years ago my Jirachi was still in the Poke walker space, I just looked up how to get him back since I never bothered before and now he's back. All is well.

Okay, I'll catch you tomorrow evening, as I'm headed for bed shortly. Had a long week and I'm pooped. Going to curl up with some Darkness Radio.
I'm available to trade that thing whenever, so just let me know.
Give me a couple minutes and I'm ready when you are. The Natu was infected with Pokerus.
Oh sorry I got distracted, I'm ready whenever you are.
Thanks muchly. :D
More info on Mega Diancie and Mega Metagross.
Diancie gets a huge boost in Speed as well as Attack and Special Attack but her defenses get a reduction.
On the other hand Mega Metagross is still Steel/Psychic, gets Tough Claws for his ability, and to top it all off he gets a boost in all of his stats, except HP of course, especially his Speed. Which means Stephen is going to give me even more trouble since he was the toughest Champion to me.
Also name changes for Pikachu's contest forms which are Pikachu Belle, Pikachu Rock Star, Pikachu Pop Star, Pikachu PhD, and Pikachu Libre.
There's also a video on Serebii but I can't see it on mobil so someone else post it on the forum so I can.
Alright so here's the deal guys, I managed to get one of those Japanese Diancies floating around and cloned it a whole bunch. So now I have a box full of Diancies that I'm more than happy to giveaway to you all. So just let me know if you want one and it is yours!
I want one for sure.
Alright you got it! You're in the game right? Just give me a minute and I'll be on too.
I'll also take one if that's okay!
Yay now all I need is to somehow get a Mew, Manaphy, Shaymin, Darkrai, Genesect and a Victini.

Currently hatching. Eevee is a slow hatcher and egg machine, so getting batches hasn't been easy. I think I have one out of a previous batch ( kept one for a Vaporeon), and I'm hatching another.
What other starters you got? I'm looking for a Chimchar.
QuickEdit: Good to go.
I can breed you a Chimchar
Yay! The Eevee is ready as it just hatched.
Now to watch the PR videos of random people...
What name do you want for Chimchar?
Son Goku.
Any name for the Eevee?
Oh, and nice sexface in your PR video. 8D

Yay, now I just need to see if Alpha Sapphire would somehow get Tornadus so I can get Landerous.
Anyone around want to have a battle? I want to test something.
Sure I'll battle. Just give me a minute to finish depositing some Mon' at the Day Care.
I might be up for a battle too since I raise quite a bit of Pokemon.
Alright! I'd like to battle both of you if that would be okay.
Yeah that's fine.
Wait can I access my Battle Box in this Menu?
I don't believe you can edit your battle box in the colosseum, only use it for battle.
Okay, I'm ready!
Okay I fixed it.
That was SOOOOO not meant to be Mecha Gojira against Galvantula. Meant to bring in Rhinox for him!
Still though, good match. Awesome surprise Mega there! XD
I hate that Mespirit, I really hate that Mespirit.
For the record Sakura, my Emboar has an Assault Vest.
I wonder if its really worth going with that set up though, he pretty much kills himself anyway but he's so slow I need him to at least tank one hit to pull off a move. I don't know.
Yeah to be honest I had a derp moment and thought he was a Special Attacker for some god forsaken reason. Really should have brought my Donphan or raise a Starmie or something.
Played with Diancie and found her likes and dislikes. She doesn't like having that exposed crystal on her bottom touched, but she really liked having her head rubbed.
"You played with Diancie a lot! Found a Shallow Hole Cushion!"
Really likes it.
Also played with Jirachi and DeLorean for a bit.
Ruri actually used the like system. Oh my God.
I clicked it by accident.
(http://i.imgur.com/YRMpAAj.jpg)
r8 or h8 my taste
I like it, some are ones I don't care for but I like them.
Excellent choices. Same favs for Dark & Electric.
Jolteon will forever be my pick for best Electric type. PIN MISSILE BITCHES
Galvantula is certainly my favorite Bug.
Weavile is my favorite Dark
Goodra is my favorite Dragon
Since Galvantula takes up Bug I default my Favorite Electric type to Raichu
Fairy is Florges
Fighting Mienshao is my favorite Fighting Type
I think my favorite Fire type is a tie between Houndoom and Ninetails
Flying is Staraptor, best common bird ever in my opinion
Ghost is most likely Dusknoir for his uniqueness
Chesnaught is my favorite Grass Type
Ground is probably a Tie between Hippowdon and Donphan
Ice is Jynx since Weavile takes Dark
Normal is most certainly Linoon
Poison is Roserade
Psychic by default of putting Jynx on Ice is Gardevoir
Rock is Aerodactyl
Steel is Metagross
and Water is probably a tie between Carracosta and Feraligatr
However my favorite overall is Blaziken.
You know, I thought Absol was your favorite Dark.
It's my second favorite, but barely by a hair, I just like using Weavile more.
Why Jynx? Nothing wrong with it but it is a rather unusual choice.
She's pretty darn unique typing and designwise, though I do prefer purple on her, I like her variety of moves, Smoochum is adorable and unique herself since she learns Psychic offensive moves when she levels up while Jynx learns Ice Type offensive moves, and I am willing to hatch a Smoochum and delay her evolution to learn Psychic in the Johto games. She was also my first baby Pokemon, besides Togepi, I got in Crystal.
I feel she's under appreciated because of the controversy around her and some people hate her design even without the controversy and I really do hope that she will get a Evolution or Mega Evolution to improve her even more considering she's a counter part to Electibuzz and Magmar and they got evolutions in Gen 4 while she was left out. She's very fun to use too.

Fair enough.
I ran out of stuff to post about so here's the upcoming Pokemon episodes that no one cares about:
QuoteXY36: A Sky Battle?! Hawlucha VS Talonflame!! (July 24th)
>Ash and friends are visiting Kalos Canyon, where they meet the Sky Trainer Nami and her Talonflame. Sky Trainers conduct "Sky Battles", where the Pokémon battle while flying through the sky. Ash challenges her to a Sky Battle with his Hawlucha.
XY37: Reflection Cave! Ash and the Ash Through the Looking-Glass?! (July 31st)
>Ash and friends are visiting "Reflection Cave". This is a cave where the walls show their reflections just like a mirror, and where a strange incident suddenly takes place. The other Ash, the reflection in the mirror, suddenly takes Pikachu and carries it away. Wanting to take Pikachu back, Ash jumps into the wall to the other side of the mirror. There he finds another world with a timid Ash, a determined Serena, an athletic Clemont and a lady-like Bonnie.
XY38: The Trevenant from the Wriggling Forest! (August 7th)
>In preparation for his Gym match against Korrina, Ash has Froakie and Hawlucha have a double battle against Clemont's Pokémon. However, Froakie and Hawlucha aren't in sync at all, and end up starting to quarrel. Ash wants to do something about this, and comes up with an idea to strengthen their bond: He'll have them train on a special combo move he calls "Super Flying Cut".
XY39: Pokémon Summer Camp! Enter the Rival Trio!! (August 14th)
Ash and friends are participating in a Pokémon Summer Camp! There, they meet a trio of other Trainers, and get ready to test their skills against them! What are the Rivals' true strength!?
>Tierno's partner is Squirtle! In what way does it battle!?
XY40: Serena VS Shauna! PokéVision Showdown!!
>Serena and Shauna are going to compete in PokéVision production! What kind of videos will they make using Fennekin and Bulbasaur in the lead roles!?
>Speaking of PokéVision, here is Clemont's mecha! Will it work okay today!?
XY41: PokéEnteering! The X in the Mist!
>It's a PokéEnteering competition, where the participants search for specific points in the forest! Deep within the mist, a shadowy shape is spotted: Could it be...!?
>The 6-man group get caught in the mist. Using Charmander's flame as their light, they carefully proceed onwards.
XY42: Team Battle! Competing for the Hall of Fame!!
>It's finally the climax of the Summer Camp! Ash and friends have a Triple Battle, but Team Rocket are planning something in secret...
>Squirtle, Charmander and Bulbasaur VS Pikachu, Fennekin and Chespin! An all-out battle!
>Save the captive trio from Team Rocket!
>A showdown with Team Rocket to take back Shauna and the others' beloved partners! Time to show off the skills our heroes have learned at the camp!
The Reflection Cave episode sounds....weird.
What I find amusing is that you can't even use Hawlucha for sky battles in the game.
Oh yeah, that as well! Does he still have his Charizard?
It's not in training anymore so it just got dumped at Oak's like everything else.
Though if Ash ever does actually get a Mega in the future I imagine he'd be the strongest contender.

There was also one episode I heard about where Litwicks tried to drag everyone to the Underworld, which is actually kind of accurate considering the Pokedex entries.
Him resetting his team is a given at this point, otherwise they'd just find lame excuses to write them off like they did in Johto so they can replace them with newer ones.
If we're lucky he'll actually use his old Pokemon in the League.
Well his Cyndaquil did evolve into a Quilava during the Sinnoh League so that's kind of something.

:o Whoa
And yeah, I can understand the resetting the team thing. I just found it funny how he regained one of his original Pokemon, only to dump it back at Oak's place again.
I must admit I am a little surprised they didn't make him keep Charizard, they did hype up the Kanto starters quite a lot for this gen so they had a good enough reason for it.
Plus, like you said, if they're bringing the Mega Evolutions into the anime, then it'd only make sense for him to keep Charizard for that purpose.
Who knows? If they timed it with the release of ORAS or something they could always go for Sceptile.
[spoiler]Considering it's Ash I sadly think the most likey scenario is no Mega at all, at least for now.[/spoiler]
Yeah, most likely!

Yeah some Pokemon episodes can be disturbing sometimes, the Team Plasma ones made Corless invention that controls Pokemon in Black and White 2 [tornado fang]ing disturbing, and let's not forget Hunter J and Cyrus are probably dead after the events of Team Galactic.
There was also an episode where Electric type Pokemon and Water type Pokemon were attracted to each other because a scientist wanted to get a Magnemite and Quagsire to become friends. That was the episode where Piplup and Pikachu had their Bromance despite both being male. The scientist claimed that it works on Pokemon regardless of gender and Brock theorized that the reason it didn't work on the Quagsire and Magnemite was because they are dual types, but I think it's because Magnemite has no gender and Cryogonal didn't exist yet.
Pokemon movie 17 - trailer (Pokemon Get TV) ç ´å£Šã®ç¹ã¨ãƒ‡ã,£ã,¢ãƒ³ã,·ãƒ¼ (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qm5Fqiekx-4#ws)
It's very Damsel in Distress until you get to Eldritch Horror. With the montage of frilly dress-up, and Diancie's chronic whimsy, it also seems rather—for lack of a better term—girly. Like Disney Princess girly.
I was getting disinterested with the "tea party princess dress-up shopping spree" and Diancie being a damsel in constant distress (she can't go out and take a sparkle dump behind a tree without someone trying to kidnap her), but then Yveltal caused all hell to break loose, and I was interested again.
Eh, I may grab it when it hits DVD. Put that on my watch list with Genesect and the Legend Awakened, which I haven't watched yet.

So I was breeding Fennekin for trade and one has all the egg moves. Didn't realize that until I was organizing my boxes. I also have one with its Hidden Ability.
Nice surprises all around. First time I've bred some egg moves, too.
I started an Emerald Randomizer. Pretty fun so far.
My starter is a pure-Flying Ho-oh named Pazuzu that knows Bounce.
The rest of my team (so far, I'm just before Petalburg Woods) is:
Nosferatu (Metapod) - Ghost - Hyper Fang
Jessie (Silcoon) - Steel/Fire - Fire Blast
James (Magikarp) - Flying/Psychic - Aeroblast
Jiggs (Igglybuff) - Dragon - Dragon Rage, Slash, Dragon Dance
Brainwash (Pidgey) - Psychic/Steel - Meteor Mash, Steel Wing
Holy [parasitic bomb] I never seen a Randomizer as [tornado fang]'d up as that. :o
I thought it was crazy with the Flying/Psychic Magikarp, but then the Dragon Igglybuff showed up.
I started a LeafGreen Delta Species run a while back just to say I fiddled with the randomiser, and have actually forgotten about it
My starter was a Fire/Ghost Squirtle that started with Overheat
So, the stars aligned and this apparently happened.

It is on their sub reddit, they also got a male named Lord Helix from another person. So now we can have Helix spawn.
And they also got a shiny Beldum.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAH I JUST GOT A SHINY LVL 100 ARCANINE THROUGH WONDER TRAAAAAAAAAAAADE!!!

Hot daaaaaaaamn. That's a nice trade! XD
I almost feel bad as I traded a Chikorita! XD
At least it wasn't a Bidoof.
I got a Ralts from someone whose message said "All hail Bidoof!" XD
Well they are kind of the best HM slaves supposedly. Though it still doesn't beat a surfing poodle.
The Arcanine's name is Pepita and she's Adamant.
Not a bad Arcanine.
She knows Flare Blitz, Close Combat, Extreme Speed, and Wild Charge. She came from Unova, apparently. Nice type spread with the moves. I may consider using her for the BI!
So, I got Pepita rated. Outstanding potential overall and the rater listed off every one of her stats, saying that they were all good and simply can't be beat.
i can haz perfect pokemon?
And my Speedy Drowzee breeding program was a success. Got a Bold Insomnia Drowzee with superior potential and her best asset is her Speed. Granted, it means she can't attack and defend for [parasitic bomb], but she's at least faster than the average Drowzee! 8D
And too bad I can't pass along some of the items I get in Amie. I have four Substitute plushies now.
I get the feeling the person who traded that Arcanine did it on accident and must be really pissed right now.
Well, their status message was "SHAYMIN PLZ"
I think they were expecting a Shaymin, but got a Chikorita.
Oh well, Pepita's mine now! She'll be loved. :3
QuoteIn The Games Department
Pokémon X & Y
It has been confirmed through an advert in Nat Geo magazine that two special events are coming to North America. These events are based on Mega Evolutions. First, from August 13th to September 17th, you will be able to download Heracross or Pinsir to your X & Y games over the Internet. In addition to that, if you go to Gamestop stores from August 18th to August 31st, you'll be able to receive a special serial code to download the Heracronite or Pinsirite Mega Stones. We'll provide full details on this event as it comes, including if it is in other regions..
Niiiiiiiiiice!
It's about time.
I'll have to hitchhike into town this month! Well, at the very least get to the bus station.
For everyone in North America you can finally get the Pokeball patterned Vivilon buy do so quickly because this ends on the 12th.
Also the online Pokemon Center is finally open.
http://www.pokemoncenter.com/ (http://www.pokemoncenter.com/)
A lot of the stuff is actually decently priced and you can even get some of the things the people who promoted the coming of this site got like the Special Delivery Pikachu and the Pikachu travel mug. Though the travel mug is kind of expensive for a water bottle.
EDIT: And Special Delivery Pikachu is out of stock already, as expected.
As a Mewtwo fan, I have to buy this (http://www.pokemoncenter.com/Pok%C3%A9mon-Center-Mewtwo-Tumbler-Purple/dp/B00K5S43OG?field_availability=-1&field_browse=8372459011&id=Pok%C3%A9mon+Center+Mewtwo+Tumbler+Purple&ie=UTF8&refinementHistory=subjectbin%2Csize_name&searchNodeID=8372459011&searchPage=1&searchRank=salesrank&searchSize=12). It's a requirement.
If only they had a Chespin tumbler, I would totally get one if they did.

Well we finally got our Mega Salamence, and joining him are Mega Altaria and Mega Lopuny of all things. Also the Contest Pikachus get specific moves much like Rotom's different forms without the type change, there's going to be an event where you can get a Shiny Beldum and the Mega Stone for it, and in contests the protagonists change clothes to something more flashy/cutesy but it hasn't been confirm if the amount of customization that X and Y will be there for normal play.
Either way I'm going to be using Altaria again.
Shiny Beldum makes me very happy! 0v0
I have a Salamence named Bill Nye.
PREPARE TO FEAR THE MIGHT OF MEGA BILL NYE
The one thing that really sucks about Mega Salamence is that it replaces Intimidate with Aerilate which I don't think is very useful for a Pokemon like Salamence. At least it wasn't Unerve. :\
I gotta say, the new Mega Evos look really nice. Especially Salamance & Lopunny!

(http://www.serebii.net/corocoro9141.jpg)
(http://www.serebii.net/corocoro9144.jpg)
Yeah Lopunny actually looks....not controversial.
Okay so once again Feebas can evolve with some method relating to Contests like it originally could and you can even Mega Evolve during the Contests.
I need to raise up a Salamence at some point. Maybe I can drop one on the team to warm the bench for a while. Maybe one would be good for Team Black Sun.
I've got another Hypno in the Speedy Hypno Training Program now. Maxing out her Speed in Super Training and she's doing great. It eclipsed her SpAtt.
More Mega-Evolved Pokémon Set for Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFZuWPXPcyI#ws)
New Megas look good in action. Also I like how they've redone contests.
Here's official artwork of the Megas:

The cosplay Pikachu is a Special Pikachu given to you by that lady after you compete in your first contest. Also it seems the contests follow the Gen 3 formula so you can't give accesories to your Pokemon, which I prefer honestly.
Still looks like fun! November can't come fast enough! XD
More Mega Evolutions have been reveal by accident courtesy of Korea, and of all things it's Mega Slowbro and Mega Audino.
http://pokebeach.com/2014/08/mega-slowbro-and-mega-audino-accidently-revealed (http://pokebeach.com/2014/08/mega-slowbro-and-mega-audino-accidently-revealed)
I got to say, I feel really sorry for Mega Slowbro.
I like the look of them!
I do too, but that Shellder is eating him.
He likes it! 8)
So much vore in that picture.
Mega Slowbro.
I don't know. It looks awkward and brings to mind horrible connotations of the Shellder feasting on Slowbro in a slow, agonizing death.

That's what you people think is going on?
I like to think of it as Slowbro trying to be Hitmontop, except instead of having to be upside down to spin he can be rightside up. The Shellder just helps with that dream.
Yeah, I don't think the Shellder is eating Slowbro, merely acting as armor. After all, Mega Slowbro does gain the ability Shell Armor, which prevents critical hits from landing on it.
If Shellder was eating Slowbro, don't you think we wouldn't see both Slowbro's head and tail along with his arms sticking out of it? If that was true digestion, there'd be no tail nor arms showing. Shellder is merely a suit of armor now.
Also a friend of mine gave me SoulSilver out of nowhere, and I had been wanting to play it so hey, even better.
Meet Mega Audino in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rBy8IRMo3aQ#ws)
I'm glad Audino is getting a Mega, there was one 'man that was too freaking adorable, and strong for the early game, to not give it a boost down the line.
I'm curious about Mega Altaria. But Salamence just reminds me to rage at there still being no Mega Dragonite. >.>
Mega Slowbro revealed for Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sB3OeQ7j2PE#ws)
Oh, the Gamestop events for Heracross and Pinsir are live, so get the stones while you can. Pinsir is available via Mystery Gift for Y players, and Heracross for X.
Yeah I need to see when I can do the Gamestop event sometime.
I'd rather have Heracross than Pinsir, but ah well!
Quote from: PBPB on August 17, 2014, 06:51:23 AM
I'd rather have Heracross than Pinsir, but ah well!
But if you have Y you can just find a Heracross and Mega Stone, the point of this event was so you can get the other version exclusives.
I know. Still wanted one! 8)
And keep in mind all of them are Female, so you would get a Heracross with a heart shaped horn.
She will be the Heracross of loooooooooove.
Heartacross.
Sucks that I'm not going to get a Heracross with the Mega Stone via event because I don't have a 3DS yet (and my brother has Y).

Wait, did a Pachirisu really win the 2014 Pokemon World Championship?
Yes, it somehow took a Draco Meteor from a Salamence to the face.
That's pretty badass! 8D
Indeed.

Well, Salamance's special is nothing to write home about if I recall correctly.
That Pachirisu cannot stand up to the might of Lavinnia the speedy Bold Hypno!
She's been doing pretty good in battle lately. I'd like to set her up with some decent priority moves and I'm considering a Nasty Plot/Psychic combo. Right now, for grinding, she's using Dazzling Gleam, Shadow Ball, and the Hypnosis/Dream Eater combo.
Quote from: Pyro on August 18, 2014, 05:55:18 AM

I was going to raise a Salamence, but i think I'll stick with Gyarados, since I caught so many that I started Wonder Trading them...

It's actually has bigger defensive stats than offensive stats, but it's not that good anyway.
Precisely!
Again, badass! 8D
Another reminder to get your Heracross/Pinsir Mystery Gift and run to GameStop for the Mega Stones! The promotion ends September 17th! I just got mine today.
And I has a battling question...
Would Nasty Plot retroactively help Future Sight? Say, I use Future Sight and then Nasty Plot for the two turns, will the SpAtt increase give it more oomph? Or does Future Sight only take into account the SpAtt when you first used the move, regardless of Nasty Plotting?
I'm trying to take into account moves for Team Black Sun, which is looking like a min-maxed team of speedy and not-so-speedy Pokemon, and I'm wondering if a Future Sight/Nasty Plot combo will be worth it? Or should I stick with the Nasty Plot/Psychic combo?
I think you have to Nasty Plot first. Just stick with Psychic, Future Sight is not worth it.
Okay, thanks.
In the mean time I'm rounding up Imposter Dittos for a friend.
Need any help? I could visit my Safaris and nab a few.
I'm good, I got 2 already.
Oh yeah, I still have to grab Pinsir's Mega Stone
Yeah I did that on Saturday, luckily they just give you cards now instead of having you have to download it directly at the store.
If your local store gives them out for free, that is. Some were giving them out only after an ORAS pre-order.
Well that's stupid.
So another event in Japan that is most likely not coming here lets them get a Shiny Gengar to to celebrate Halloween.
I'm hoping Nintendo World gets those Primal Groudon & Kyogre figures
I'm sure we'll get those like everyone else.
Yeah, most likely!
C'moooooooooooooooon Shiny Gengar! I want to celebrate Halloween with a Shiny Gengar! I also want to do so without breeding the hell out of my Japanese Gastly.
Oh, and Hot Topic has Eeveelution plushies.
Looks like Europe is getting Steelbook versions of Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, plus a pre-order bonus. (http://www.siliconera.com/2014/08/28/pokemon-omega-ruby-alpha-sapphire-getting-limited-edition-steelbook-versions-europe/)

I mean, kind of neat for a cart based game. But for discs they're like a [tornado fang]ing nightmare. Besides, they're not even that good looking.

A fancy metal case instead of the usual plastic ones. Like so.

Oh. While pretty on a shelf and durable, for travel, that'd be setting off metal detectors right and left.

Yeah, that thing's
real fun to get a disc out of.
I felt like the damn thing was gonna snap every time.
I did like that for Metroid Prime Trilogy, but for a handheld, I think that would be irrelevant. Who brings a case that size for one handheld game, anyway?
Wouldn't the steelbook case for a 3DS game be the same size as other 3DS boxes?
It is, that said I'm not getting it since I agree with Clef on them not looking too good and it would clash with the other cases on my shelf.

No new stuff really other than some scenes and a curious part of the player sneaking up on a Pikachu tail in the grass. Also Shiny Beldum event runs from Nov 21st to Jan 14th.
Still no announcement about the figures coming out here but it's only a matter of time until they do.
We got some Gamestop events in North America coming up.
The first is surprisingly the Shiny Gengar we were talking about a little while ago which will be distributed from October 13th to the 26th. It comes with a Gengarite
The next is a Diancie from October 27th to November 16th. It comes with a Normal gem but if you trade it to Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire you'll get her Mega Stone too.
Ohboyohboyohboyohboyohboyohboyohboy
Can't wait! :D
Must get shiny Gengar! Must get second Diancie!
I might offer the first for a Keldeo or Meloetta, I forgot to ask Ruri if he had extra of those.
Yeah, I'm tempted to do the same, but for something else. Not sure what, though.
Beats me, I would go for an event legendary myself it has as the same stat values as other base 600 legendaries like Mew, Celebi, Jirachi and ect so I would like something of equal value or Keldeo.
Hm... Diancie for a Mew... Sounds tempting... Or I may try for a Keldeo. It'd be amusing to have the Pokémon version of Rainbow Dash.
Actually since he's a unicorn he's more like a Pokemon version of Twilight or Rarity.
Well Wally and Mega Gallade sure as hell look dapper.
http://pokebeach.com/2014/09/corocoro-leaking-september (http://pokebeach.com/2014/09/corocoro-leaking-september)
Just about to post that!
YES!!!! 0v0
And so far the only Pokemon Zeta has that can Mega Evolve. Still waiting for Mega Milotic......
Edit: and now Mega Camerupt and Sharpedo, I almost mistook Camerupt of devolving into a slug.......
Mega Camerupt is just what happens when you fuse a Camerupt with a Magcargo.
Nah it's just I didn't see his stubby little legs, I think I'll name my next Numel Stubby now.
More stuff revealed, Rayquaza seems to hold some kind of secret to Mega Evolution and the demo of the game has a special surprise for those who play it everyday. It also says something about seeing a Mega Evolution for the first time and transfering it and any items you find similar to the demo of Bravely Default.
So, Primal Reversion Groudon/Kyogre effectively have "priority" weather effects in that they cannot be cancelled by the standard weather-changing moves. Oh yeah, and instead of weakening the "opposite" type attacks, they completely negate it.
Because you know, their existing weather effects weren't broken enough. Granted, it's cool that Primal Groudon is Fire now, but still.
There needs to be a Primal/Mega Rayquaza, and I'm curious to see it. But I expect Primal Kyogre is the uber to end all ubers.
It does go away if they switch or die so there's that.
And since Primal Groudon's ability negates Water moves, he's not horribly weak to Water like we thought he would be. So there's that.
But yes, needs more Primal Rayquaza.
Also finally got my Mega Stone code from Gamestop today, it was their last one apparently haha

And since Primal Groudon's ability negates Water moves, he's not horribly weak to Water like we thought he would be. So there's that.
I hadn't thought of that. The type change yields Ground/Fire Pokemon whose only weakness is an opposing Ground (2x), and Groudon is something of a physical tank as it is (special Ground attackers are pretty rare). I guess this really could put him on more equal footing with Kyogre.
I know that they're bringing back hideouts in the Ruby/Sapphire remakes and beefing up what you can do with them--which is awesome. Are they keeping trainer customization in from X/Y, though? I would be disappointed if they weren't.
I don't know, I hope they do since I really want to change May's bandana.
Quote from: Sakura Leic on September 16, 2014, 02:48:45 AM

I just like adding my own personality to the trainer. It makes it feel more invested in the game. I was actually getting a bit burnt out on Pokemon until I got Pokemon X. Customizing my trainer really helped me rekindle my interest in the franchise.
I agree. I hope fashion is back! XD
Me too. I want to buy clothes and wear stuff that clashes horribly because I'm colorblind and have no sense of style! 8D
And I have a trainer question. I'm currently raising Xizor the Scizor. Recently, he learned Swords Dance and uses it in conjunction with Iron Head. What other moves would be good for him? His ability is Technician.
I figure he should have X Scissor as well.
He's got it. Should he keep Night Slash? That's the move I'm thinking of replacing.
And any move ideas for Guri? I set her up with Flame Charge and Fire Blast and she still has Flamethrower and Quick Attack from when I caught her.
And trying to high-five a Ninetales is a pain. But, grabbing her tails is easy. I like to live dangerously.
I would replace Night Slash for Bullet Punch, with Technician it'll be raised from 40 to 60 power and having a priority move would be invaluable to him.
Now to obtain Bullet Punch... *Gets out wallet full of Heart Scales*
So, I've been playing Tile Puzzle Unlimited a bit more. Played that mode for the fourth time.
(http://imageshack.com/a/img674/608/0Ihj3U.jpg)
Easy and Normal trip me up, while I excel at Hard.
Oh, and Puffs will overwrite other Puffs if you play games and already have a full stash of Puffs. I had some really good ones that I wanted to feed to my team, but a few rounds of Tile Puzzle overwrote those good Puffs with crappier ones.
So apparently the reason Maxie wears Glasses is because the key stone to Mega Evlove his Pokemone is there, what? o-O
Yeah, in an earlier trailer you can see that, much how Archie's Mega Stone is in that anchor pendant, Maxie's is to the side of his glasses.
That's it.
I'm going to embed a Mega Evolution Key Stone in my glasses.
Oh my god the impossible has happened. That episode in the anime that was postponed because of a ship crash is actually going to air. If only they could have done that for the Team Rocket vs Team Plasma arc.
I went into town today wearing my Hypno cosplay (sans mask and left the pendulum at home).
It is rainy and dreary and I feel like crap, so I thought that I'd at least dress sunny and mustardy.
Yeah, I got some stares. XD
I suddenly have the urge to start breeding Vulpix for some reason.
Do it. Then send the babies over Wonder Trade. That's what I do.
*still need to hatch that egg backlog and get that other egg and hatch it and start breeding a different starter before I have to pay a fortune to get the Pokemon out of the Daycare.*
DrSmoothLove, you are so expensive!
Oh my god Purloin looks so awkward in Pokemon X and Y, why did they make you stand on 2 feet? o-O
...
*Goes to look at Natalia the Purrloin*
...Wow. Digitigrade does not work for Purrloin. And her tail-swishing is about to knock her over. She looks like she's struggling to keep standing!
It's a weird contrast because this is how Purrloin looks in Black and White.
http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-bw/509.shtml (http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-bw/509.shtml)
Chimchar also looks weird since he's standing when before he was crouching.
That does look... bizarre. Purrloin looks so... unwieldy standing on hind legs. The body type doesn't work.
Chimchar, on the other hand... I do like the dancing. XD
I mean granted I think in the Anime it did stand on 2 legs too but it looked fine, I think it's because the sprite looks taller than Purrloin should be.
In my quest of my on going quest to get a Shiny Vulpix I started Wonder Trading some of the Vulpix I got, primarily the ones with Flash Fire. One of the trades was a Walrein, easily one of the most random Pokemon that I could have gotten.
EDIT: HOLY [tornado fang]ing [parasitic bomb] WONDER TRADE GAVE ME A SHINY [tornado fang]ing LUXRAY! :O

That person trained her pretty well too, her level 70 with Guts with a Toxic Orb for a hold item and has her EV's in Speed and Attack. The Nature is Jolly and her moves were Night Slash, Wild Charge, Fire Fang and Ice Fang. She also has Pokerus.
The only thing is that She's Female and her name is Beck, kind of weirds me out a bit.
But I really do hope you succeed in getting that Shiny Shinx someday, you've been using the Masuda method right?
Yerp.
Actually I haven't tried in a while cause I've been working on getting a full Pokedex so I can get the Shiny Charm and that's taking a while so yeah.
BUT STILL O:<
Yeah I was certainly not expecting that, I just hope her trainer didn't trade her by accident. It seems like her trainer put a lot of effort into her.
Heh, that trainer will end up in the same therapy group, joining the trainer who traded me Pepita the Shiny lvl 100 Arcanine.
Hmm yeah looking at the egg moves of that Luxray the person had to have chain bred it at least twice if he used a father with Ice Fang and Fire Fang and another father for Night Slash I'm more convinced the person traded Beck by accident. Oh well, I'll take care of her now.
Pepita has two Egg Moves as well.
Her original trainer's name is Hyllian. What's Beck's OT? That'd be weird if we both got Shinies from the same person. Did they happen to have a message saying "SHAYMIN PLS" or something?
X-Player, I doubt it would've have been the same player considering how popular Pokemon is and how many people actually try to get the Pokemon the way they wanted it.
Hm. I'm guessing either they were trying to get a Legendary and thought that trading a really good Pokemon would do it, they're really generous, or it was a mistake.
If they were trading for a Legendary they would use the GTS, which is actually kind of reasonable depending on the person unlike the person who wants to trade like a Level 1 Budew for *insert random Legendary here*
I was going to say that I don't understand how anyone can trade a Pokemon by accident, and then I accidentally traded my only male Sneasel (I have others, but they're all female).
Rargh.
Anywho, I traced my mutant Hypno's family tree. It's technically more of a family shrub. With interlocking branches.

I'd really, really, really hate to see a chain-bred Pokemon's family tree of interlocking branches.
You know I think the reason I get a bit bored with Pokemon Amie is that there's not enough you can do with your Pokemon. Can't give them a bath, can't play fetch, can't make them our own Poke Puffs. I mean the mini games are fun, but it gets tedious.
All I play is Tile Puzzle.

More or less? Maybe not taking a bath but more ways to interact with your Pokemon.
Some Pokemon got really gypped in terms of animations and such for Amie and for general battle. You got Pokemon who have idle animations that play every now and then (Scizor will taunt by clicking his claws, Mewtwo swishes his tail even more, Alakazam will stretch, etc), and those with more Amie animations (Eevee will lay down and roll over, Arcanine jumps like a puppy, Gengar has two dances, Ninetales will lick itself, Delphox will dance, Magikarp will dance, etc).
But then there's the Pokemon without battle idle and their Amie animations are limited to the basics. I want to high-five my Hypno! I want to high-five Mewtwo, but he's too cool for that. You let them idle and they stare at you. Or in battle, they just... don't do anything.
I don't know... some Pokemon got shafted in terms of what they can do.
I wouldn't mind ballroom dancing with a Gardevoir. XD But I do with agree Sakura, I wish was more ways to interact with your Pokémon in Pokémon Amie. Like if they can track where you're holding a puff and where you throw one, why do they just stand there to watch it hit the ground and then cry over soiled cupcakes?
Or the blank stares you get from Pokemon that don't have as many animations as other Pokemon. Hell, ones that have the potential for high-five won't.
Though, last night, I went to feed my Hypno and she practically lunged for the Puff. I barely got it to her and she was already eating it.
YOU GIVE ME THAT CUPCAKE OMNOMNOMNOM :W
Well keep in mind that Amie is returning in ORAS and we don't really know much about how it works in that game (aside from Cosplaychu) or if it's just the same. There's always a chance there's been some improvements to it.
My hope is for more animations for the Pokemon who lack them.
There is a new Wi-Fi event going on from today to October 31st where you can get a Lv 50 Super Sized Pumpkaboo. The Pumpkaboo comes with a Rocky Helmet and the moves Trick or Treat, Astonish, Scary Face, and Shadow Sneak. It have any of it's abilities Pick Up, Frisk or it's Hidden Ability Insomia which is not available in game Super Sized Pumpkaboo.
This event seems to exist because of the Trick or Treat Battle Competion where you are required to have a team of Ghost types and a Super Sized Gourgeist has to be among them.
I got a Super Sized Pumpkaboo in Wonder Trade once but since it's a trade evo it evolved right away.
This one won't, so yay!
I went out and slogged through the grass to find mine. Looks like I'm getting another!
Mega Rayquaza Revealed for Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WPQg3lSvWc4#ws)
I just evolved my French Chansey into a Blissey, didn't take very long either.
I've been trying to get a Happiny, but haven't had much luck. Same with getting a Koffing. Anyone have any they'd be willing to breed? I got Chimchar in the daycare and a few Anticipation Eevee left. I also have a ton of Abra.
You have to give Chansey a Luck Incense and breed it.
I don't even have a Chansey. I thought I'd be luckier to get a Happiny, but everyone wants a Diancie for one. Same with Chansey. Same with Koffing.
I may go out and catch another Audino and deposit it for a Chansey. Not sure what to deposit for a Koffing, though.
I'd recommended depositing a rarer Pokemon for Chansey like one found in Friend Safaris such as Vulpix. People really give me what I want fast for my Vulpix. Starters besides the Kanto and Kalos starters would probably have the same effect.
Chimchar for a Chansey it is.
Though I still haven't gotten a Bouffalant just yet for my Vulpix.
So, I started to train a new Fly slave. I decided to use one of my Noibats. Bruce Wayne evolved and now I fly around on a Noivern.
I decided to get his memory read just for funsies.
"Bruce Wayne was excited when Trak won with her Loto Ticket and won prizes like PP Ups. The Pokemon remembers that it got angry."
Batman hates PP Ups as much as he hates rocknroll.
Batman don't do drugs man.

Lots of successful Vulpix trading, I got a Bronzong that I'm going to start breeding soon since a guy I met at school wanted one. Currently trying to get a Weezing on the GTS now.

If you get a Weezing, can you breed it? :3
Yeah I will.
So. Move suggestions for a Noivern? Right now, Bruce Wayne is using Fly, Aerial Ace, Echoed Voice, and Dark Pulse. He's keeping Fly, because he's a Fly slave. The other three are eventually subject to change. I may keep Dark Pulse, but Echoed Voice is one I'm most likely to replace soon, but I'm not sure with what.
And I keep winning PP Ups in the Lottery, much to Batman's annoyance. If I win any more, he'll go divebomb the place.
Keep Dark Pulse, give him Dragon Pulse and maybe Roost.
I Heart-Scaled Dragon Pulse and used a PP Up on it. Batman won't be happy. Guess I'll have to get him a Colorful Berry Drink.
Is it wrong that I change my outfit everyday now?
Nah. I change mine every day. Or at least every week, if I'm feeling lazy. Maybe I'll go change my outfit...
Yeah I just changed my hair too since I haven't changed it since I beat the game. It Medium now, but it looks weird since the ears aren't covered. Then again I always cover my ears in real life since my ears are kind of small. Plus the lack of earrings kind of make it stand out too.
I just got Umbreon, also he has some distinct eye lashes when he closes his eyes. Now I'm waiting to get the world's laziest monkey from the GTS, seriously amazing how everyone wants a Vulpix.
Are you just depositing Vulpix or doing searches? My searches see everyone wanting Diancie or something equally stupid for what they offer. Every once in a while I'm able to make a trade.
Depositing them, I've got a ton of Pokemon that way.
Also thinking about it I kind of want to see a Mega Xatu for the hell of it someday.
Huh.
I just got a Gallade through Wonder Trade.
You'll have an easy Mega Gallade once ORAS comes out.
That's more random than my my Walrein.
It's a foreign Gallade, too. Galagladi.
I'd have him marry Susan, but I'm not sure the laws concerning same-sex Pokémon marriage. 8D
There's always fan pics for when that happens.
Thanks to Blue's Friend Safari I can catch a [parasitic bomb] load of Togepi's to trade on the GPS, so I don't have to keep breeding Vulpix.
So can I! I may deposit a Togepi for Lavinnia's mate, rather than the Chimchar I have up right now, if I don't get any takers. For quicker egg production, I'm looking for another male Hypno. I want to diversify the Hypno gene pool, since my breeding stock are ALL inbred.
No pictures of this quite yet, but it seems the next Coro Coro batch has revealed that Pigeot and Beedrill of all Pokemon will get Mega forms. Never expected that form Com Mons, but I now want a Mega Staraptor.
Got an extra Gengar, so I put that up as a trade for a male Hypno. Might get a taker.
On the Starter front, I think I got all the Starters except for Piplup. Got an Oshawott and a Treecko for a Meinfoo and a Turtwig, respectively.
All Dem starters...
Okay apparently you can fly Mega Latios and Latias around the overworld and can find Dialga, Palkia, Reshiram and Zekrom in the sky. Holy [parasitic bomb]. :o
So it seems with the ability to explore the [tornado fang]ing sky with Mega Latios and Mega Latias and go to islands to find legendaries it seems like Game Freak is trying to make it so that all non event Legendaries will be obtainable in Gen 6. Of course Latios is exclusive to Omega Ruby and Latias is exclusive to Alpha Sapphire like in the original games. It has also been confirmed the Eon Ticket, which was used to get the opposite Eon Pokemon, will be available and a new item known as the Eon Flute will be use the Mega Eon Pokemon to fly.
Jeez I can't believe they made Hoenn even bigger, what the hell are they going to do for the Sinnoh Remakes?!
That's Gen7, still some way to go.
Or Gen 8 even depending if Gamefreak pulls another Black and White with that Region that Backpacker in the Strange Souvenier ques comes from. I highly doubt it though, I just hope if they do it's not exclusive to the New 3DS or else it would [acid burst] off a lot of people.

Was Gen 5 exclusive to the DSi?
That should answer your question.
Chances are, they'll just have extra features if played on a New 3DS.

True I guess.
Beedrill is the Mega Evolution that will pierce the heavens.
Mega Pidgeot is pretty cool too. Has No Guard, so every attack of its will hit.
I may resurrect PerkyTerky to be a new crutch.
Well my Pidgeot who took out a Zebstrika that was 32 levels higher than it will finally attain Mega Evolution, so that's cool.
Indeed.
*Gets more Eggs from the Daycare*
You do so know how those eggs got there! You just don't want to tell me that they had sex.
Must be a policy of theirs for when Preschool-class Trainers drop off their Pokémon.
Preschooler Mia: Mister! Mister! You said my Pokémon were getting along, but they're fighting!
Breeder: Ummm...
Scarred by too much PokeSex.
Oh, and while searching through GTS, I'll sometimes come across some repeat trades. For example, for a while, people were trading Abra with spambot names, all for the same Pokémon, and their message was always "kev." Now I see spambot-named Abra up for Shinx trades, and all the messages say "my anaconda."
Is there a meme I'm not aware of? I only see this in the Abra trades.
Quote from: Dr. Wily II on October 11, 2014, 03:47:32 AM

Hot Mamoswine on Eevee action. 8D
Nah, nothing beats Hot Wailord on DIGLETT Action in terms of scale.
True, but I didn't make that happen in a RP unlike hot Mamoswine on Eevee action.
As for the weird Abra trades I mentioned... I haven't gotten any of them. I don't trust those trades. I don't know if it's a meme or a weird virus, but I don't trust seeing ten-fifteen spambot-named Abra trades all for the same Pokémon and all with the exact same message.
GTS botnet.
Back to seeing if anyone will take that Gengar. It's not as if I'm asking for an impossible trade or an unequal trade. I'm offering a Japanese Gengar for a male Hypno. Gengar for Hypno. Even trade, so why no takers?
I still don't get why you want so many Abras and Hypnos.
Abras for competition, and a Hypno for my mutant Hypno to mate with. I'm trying to breed some decent Pokémon. I got two 4 IV HA Abra, and i intend to breed them. My current Hypno breeding stock isn't very good, considering its best candidate is Bold with a max Speed IV. I need to diversify it.
Plus she's building a mutant gene pool for Hypno.
Oh right, this is why I don't breed 6 IV Pokemon like other people do. But you don't have to breed with other Hypnos and Abras, as long as you have a Pokemon in the same Egg Group and the Hypno anc Abra are female you can breed with other Pokemon.
Quote from: Dr. Wily II on October 11, 2014, 04:09:53 AM
Plus she's building a mutant gene pool for Hypno.
Still won't be as mutant as a certain Hypno Quickie has encountered in Tumbler RPs.
Those are Sues, not included.
I'm also Wonder Trading my Abra Army. Just got a Vulpix.
I'm keeping my Ralts army for now... They make great point fodder for PokeBank. :P
I still have a box and a half full of Abra in the Bank. Finally made a dent in my PC Army.
You know those suspicious Abra trades I mentioned? The ones where everyone used the same message or variations of? There's more who are asking for Zorua. I'm not touching any of them.
Though, I did get a 5 IV HA for a Magmar. Always happy to be of service for someone's Pokedex. I also managed to get a German Piplup for a Turtwig.
Then, for the hell of it, I decided to look at the Celebi trades.
I saw this:
(http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/xq90/661/D8LeS7.jpg) (https://imageshack.com/i/idD8LeS7j)
That weirdness only affected the ones bearing that message and Celebi without names (no species name, just a blank space where the name should be).
... THE MIIS ARE INVADING
First were the Mii clones in-game for multi battles... NOW THIS
Much like the spambot-named same message Abra trades, I don't trust any of those Celebi trades.
And the only reason I made some Abra trades were to help another's Pokedex. I've gotten repeat Pokemon from others that way, and hey, multiples with good stats are always welcome.

That's just the Japanese using cheating devices to alter their characters in ways not intended like removing the hat, so it comes up all weird like that since the icons weren't designed for it.
That would also explain the errors in the messages, I guess.
It certainly was striking to see that. I went to see if there were similar reports, but couldn't find any. Like I said, it was only those, and they all had the exact same message and the exact same Celebi with no name and a Master Ball. The other three trades weren't so glitchy.
Also. Their trade text is kaizou (modification) over and over.
That makes more sense. So, what I saw was a product of cheating. Thanks for clearing that up, as it was really weird.
Okay so I'm leveling up a Klink and saw it evolves at 38 and again at 49. Dammit why do you take that long, your stats aren't really much to write home about.
On the plus side if you want to use it in a double battle Plusle and Minun can make good partners with it thanks to Plus or Minus.
EDIT: I really need to stop accepting passerby Trades, this latest one wanted legendaries.
Mega Steelix and Glalie has been confirmed to be seen in the Demo that still has not had a release date in America, still wanting a Mega Milotic, Ninetails and Jynx.
From Serebii:
"The US demo will come through the October Trainer Club News Letter."
What is that, I never heard of it before.
Info from the main Pokemon site. (http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-news/head-to-hoenn-early-with-the-pokemon-trainer-club/)
It turns out I actually have made an account in the past a long time ago, now I just need to figure out how to get the newsletter.
Login, go to your account settings, there should be a check box for you to tick "I want to receive email...".
Yeah I figured it out, though the school is really slow loading the site.
There seems to be a large influx of people logging in, I had difficulty logging in.
That makes sense then, I hope I get that email soon then.
The email will be sent out to all who have opted-in on October 21.
I made sure to opt-in just to get the demo code. I like how they made it a point to mention that you need to opt-in to news about it. They must've learned from all the people complaining about missing the Smash code cause they weren't opted in to emails from Nintendo lol.
I hope it's not region-locked, i.e. Based on the country I registered in my account.
.... I think I'll create another account, and set it as US just in case. >_>
Different countries have different ways of getting the demo code and I don't think they announced how your region gets it.
http://www.serebii.net/omegarubyalphasapphire/demo.shtml (http://www.serebii.net/omegarubyalphasapphire/demo.shtml)
Mine NEVER gets these kind of events. >_>
Hence why I always miss out on the in-life events (serial codes, local wireless).
Ah, yeah I don't know if the codes would be region specific.
And therefore, creating a new account with the country as United States.
I MUST HAVE THE DEMO
I will be seeing Mega Glalie in my nightmares.

My mutant Hypno will protect me. Or, I could just send BADASS PEPITA after it.
First look on M-Steelix... More plating.
Honestly Mega Glalie has nothing on Dusclops and Shedinja. Not Dusknoir since he's pretty much the Grim Reaper, but Dusclops is pretty much a monster in the right circumstances.

It was also an overall mediocre Pokemon, and in the original RSE he was one of the only 3 Ice Types you can get in the main game because Hoenn is a Tropical Region. In turn the Sinnoh games initially had 2 fire types but even though Platinum made Sinnoh colder they added more Fire Types because everyone hated the lack of fire types and one of the Elite 4 members was a Fire type guy and barely had 2 in DP.
Ironically Glacia in RSE had a similar problem but she did waht Lance did and had multiples of the same Pokemon unlike Flint in DP.

I forgot about Glalie's PokéDex entry until last night... Particularly the part about it eating its prey in a leisurely fashion.
Mega Glalie eats your soul like potato chips.

Well, they've taken what was basically the only thing I really liked from XY out for no good reason, leaving me stuck with a really dumb looking May.
That's fine, less incentive to buy at launch.

I really like the trainer classes redesigns and how they kept a lot of the original elements for most of them. THOSE NINJAS ARE JUST SO ADORABLE! *o*
Finally got around to checking the GTS. Got that male Hypno I was waiting on. He's Japanese, came all the way from Unova, and has one good IV. He will be bred for a Shiny.
Welcome to the family, Sleeper. Why do you look so derpy.
(http://imageshack.com/a/img661/6504/RKlcln.jpg)
I'm also breeding more Starters. Bred a bunch of Turtwig and Cyndaquil. I'm going to drop off my Oshawott and breed it, and then breed some more Mudkip and Chikorita, breed my Piplup, breed more Chimchar and Snivy, and breed my Treecko. I should also breed more Totodile.
I has ALL the Starters!
*swipes Dem starters*
There's no one in the Daycare at the moment, as I had taken Yendy and Lavinnia out on their third Double Battle dinner date and let them consummate it in the Daycare (after getting Yendy massaged and Lavinnia drunk). They had four kids; two sons and two daughters. Oneiromancer (which JUST FIT), Jung, Gwendolen, and Mirai. Only Gwendolen has a stat that's any good.
That's what I get for breeding mutants.
So, which Starter should I set up with DrSmoothLove? 8D
Hmm... Turtwig?
Got a batch already, though I could breed more! 8D
I also have Astroglide for when DrSmoothLove gets tired.
Oh god, DrSmoothLove is still a factory huh. XD
He's surprisingly young for how hard he works. 8D
The energy of youth. 8D
So today someone gave me their 6 IV Swampert since I mentioned I wanted to raise a Swampert and he wasn't using him. While I won't use him for competitive play, I want to raise my own Swampert from scratch, I will keep him in the party for the Grind Chateau.
That was going to be Pepita's job, but I'm a lousy trainer who could use all the help I can get, so Pepita will be used for competitive play.
...while the rest of her team is comprised of Pokémon with really meh stats.

And Sleeper is in the Daycare and I made some random trades. Got a 5IV Delphox over GTS for a Charmeleon and a really extremely MEH female Hypno for an Aipom. I understand why they traded. Her stats are TERRIBLE.
But, I will give her a good home and pamper her. She doesn't need to worry about battling or trying to impress her trainer. She just needs to sit back and eat Puffs while getting pet and massaged.
And maybe be regimented into the X-project. :P
With her stats? Yeesh. Perhaps as a lover for the Shiny Hypno Breeding Project, but she's not up to snuff for my other experiments. Right now, her job is to be spoiled rotten.
Though, I may set her up with the Hypnosis/Dream Eater combo and use her as a catcher. I can always use more catchers.
So similar to collecting boxtops in a elementary school fundraising contest Japan has the ability to collect clippings to give them codes to get in order from least amount of codes needed to the most a Shaymin for 1, a Nugget for 3, a Super Potion for 5, a Keldeo for 7, a Luxury Ball for 10, a Rare Candy for 13, a Victini for 16, and a Master Ball for 20.
There are 50 clippings to collect and can be gotten from Pokemon Trading Cards, Pencil cases, and Sandwich packs with more things to get clippings from to be announced. The Sandwich packs apparently come in Omega Ruby Strawberry Jam flavor and Alpha Sapphire Tuna Bread flavor.
I'm curious to try those sandwiches out. I'll go for an Alpha Sapphire Tuna Sandwich. :W
Well considering Kyogre might as well be a giant Tuna...
*GASP!* THEY'RE SERVING CHUNKS OF KYOGRE!!

I got my shiny gengar.
I got mine, too. Got Wily his, as well.
And I saw more pics of Mega Glalie. Still terrifying.
I wonder if the American Demo will get Glalie or Steelix since it's region based.

Honestly I'm expecting us to get a completely new Mega in our version, especially considering they hyped up the NEVER BEFORE SEEN MEGA EVOLUTION thing and we're getting ours after JP and EU, both of which had unique Megas in their demos.
C'moooooonnnnnn Mega Hypno.
Just kidding. That would never happen. I just want a use for all the Drowzee I'm ending up with now that I'm breeding for a Shiny.

Not really, so far Australia, South Korea, and the parts of Europe that already have the demo got Glalie and Japan got Steelix. I'm leaning on us getting Steelix really.

Not happening.
There's no unrevealed megas in the hacked EU demo (other than the alternate Hoopa forme) and the demo has M-Steelix data in it. The megas are more than likely divided into English and Japanese rather than specific regions.
I'm perfectly aware of the ripped data. I'm just expecting one. If that doesn't happen, oh well, but if it does, cool.
Well I think you're pretty silly for expecting one.
Annnnnnnd we're getting Mega Glalie in the demo, which I'm fine with.
Quick! Someone Photoshop Mega Glalie on the moon from Majora's Mask!
Or at the very least remind me to do it later.
Oh hell, I'll just draw it for Inktober.
Told you.
Hey look guys a million more ways to get the demo:
QuoteHow to get a demo code:
- Codes will be distributed at select cinema locations nationwide from Nov. 7–Nov. 13 (while supplies last).
- Check with your local retailer during the holidays to find out about special demo code giveaways (while supplies last).
- Get a code with your purchase of the new Pokémon Art Academy game (out Oct. 24) when you buy from Nintendo eShop on your Nintendo 3DS or 2DS system.
- You'll also get a code with your purchase of one of two classic Pokémon games coming to the Virtual Console service on Nintendo eShop: the Pokémon Puzzle Challenge game (out Nov. 6) or the Pokémon Trading Card Game (out Nov. 13). You'll find your free demo code on your eShop receipt (download codes available while supplies last).
- Codes will be emailed the week of Oct. 31 to select Nintendo customers with Nintendo Network IDs who have signed up to receive promotional emails from Nintendo.
- Codes will also be distributed during the holiday mall tour from Nov. 24‒Dec. 21 at 16 different locations throughout the nation. Talk to a staff member to try out Pokémon Omega Ruby, Pokémon Alpha Sapphire or any of the featured Nintendo 3DS games to receive two codes—one for you, and one for a friend (while supplies last). Check back soon for a list of tour locations.
Also looks like they've let spill that we're getting
Panel De Pon Tetris Attack Pokemon Puzzle Challenge and TCG (I cannot fathom why) on the VC in November.
I kind of liked the TCG, it had some catchy music.
Me too. I used play it ages ago because I enjoyed some of the music in the game, so I might pick it up when I get my 3DS.
On a related note, I'm playing with my new pet in Amie and it's a cutie.
Who do you have in Amie?
A Diancie. Just got it today from someone in France for an Arceus.
She's adorable in Amie.
I haven't played with mine for a while, but I did welcome my Shiny Gengar. I love his little dance. I also welcomed the two Hypno I adopted from GTS (one of them was for a Turtwig). Sleeper is in the Daycare, while the female will be eventually taught some moves so she can be a catcher. They're both Forewarn, both from Unova, and only Sleeper has any decent stats, while Lady Hypno is absolutely terrible.
I should also spoil my Heracross. Gotta spoil 'em all.
I just looked at the online Pokemon Center and they just added a lot of plushies.
There's also new sections. No products, yet, but new sections.
Also, Hot Topic has a slew of Pokéstuff, including some cosplay items. When I was there, they had a Charmander hat and tail.
M-Glalie huh, oh well.
Gonna check my emails later today to see if my plan worked...
Speaking of the antichrist, I finished today's Inktober. Now to get around to scanning it...
Oh boy, this should be good. bVd

SCANNER HATE SKETCHBOOK PAGE CREASE :W
Should have put a tiny Flabebe in there so we can have a Tatl. 8D
It's hidden behind the (...)>
Nice!
Also I'm happy we're getting the TCG game. It was fun, and the music is too damn good.
And I'd imagine we're getting it because Europe has had it for a while now, so it's time we got it too. I mean it's either that or we'd never get it while Europe did, and that would just be not cool at all.

Mega Glalie would make a good jack-o-lantern. Any ideas for what that Evil Pez Dispenser should do next?

I just got my demo code, I'll have to wait until I get home to input it.
Still waiting on my code. Apparently because they're being sent out in batches and there's so many it could be up to a week for some folks to get theirs.
Mine was waiting for me...
in my Junk Mail folder.
Check there if you haven't already.
EDIT: well some code that was. I just got a blank [tornado fang]ing grey box that says "Coupon" in it.
Yeah the Pokemon site did say it may end up there.
More data mining in the Demo, this time it's a list of sound effects and background music.
http://pastebin.com/NgJ4vPZh (http://pastebin.com/NgJ4vPZh)
So many Legendaries have their own tune. ~w~
So, I got the email for the code, buuuuut I'm not seeing the code anywhere on it. >.>;;
It's in a little white box next to the ORAS portion of it.
I know. But all I'm getting is a little box with an 'x' in it like an image that decided it doesn't want to load.
Oh, maybe you need to push the load images button again?
I did that and got a blank grey box that says "coupon".
So yeah, great code nintendo.
I keep reloading and getting that little 'x' box...
I got the newsletter, but the code doesn't show up at all!!
Starting to think that Nintendo and/or the Pokemon site are having some technical difficulties...
Mine worked fine, just need to put it in.
Mine showed up now.
Might be my computer being stupid then.
Maybe its a sign you're not supposed to play the demo.
*sigh* Guess that means I'll be getting everything the honest hard way.
The demo really isn't anything and Mega Glalie is an abomination, I'd be happier knowing that thing isn't on my game.
You don't like an Ice Type explosion?
And now the horrific image of Mega Glalie eating a Vanillux enters my head.
I'll draw that tomorrow.
No, why would I want to waste my mega by blowing it up? There's far superior choices out there.
That is true I guess. *shrugs*
Glalie is a pretty terrible mega all around though not the worst. At least with some of the other things you can make the argument that you just like how it looks or such but with that thing? I got nothing.
Quote from: Sapphire Knight on October 22, 2014, 02:48:58 AM

It's working on mine now. Sapph, if you want, I can forfeit and PM you my code if it doesn't show up on your end again.
Can't choose your gender (stuck as a boy)
Can't name your character (Who the [tornado fang] names themselves orlando)
this is the worst demo ever
Can I ask an honest question...
Who gives a [parasitic bomb] about the demo? It's Pokemon. Unless they're reaaaaally breaking the mold here, I doubt the game dynamics are altering that much from X & Y.

You mean the demo itself or just people complaining about the demo?
The demo itself. I mean, does something actually come with it?
You can transfer items and the Mega Glalie to your Game.
I thought there'd something you can import into the full game?
Never mind...
Quote from: Sakura Leic on October 22, 2014, 04:00:25 AM

Okaaaay. Are these exclusive to the demos or do they exist in the game?
That we're not sure yet, I wold imagine that getting the Steelixite would be an event here.
I'm hoping so, maybe to give you a headstart in the full game.
If they're exclusive, then yeah that would make it worthwhile. If not, then I don't see the big deal.
Okay, got the code now.
And I think it's for a bit of a head start.

Yeah I just want to be careful.
god he looks like a stupid version of Pac-Man.
Also the Demo has basically bonus quests that you can do each day.
I don't know why.
Basically, the important part is that you fight some Team Magma and Team Aqua Goons (with the second evolution of the starter of your choice at level 35) with enough experience between them to bring you to level 36 so you can use Mega whatever starter as you bring down both a Magma and Aqua admin with Steven's Shiny Metagross helping (leading to one turn death.) and then Steven gives you some pokeballs to catch Glalie and you catch it in one go without even having to fight it.
It's pretty much to transfer items like the Bravely Default Demo.
Okay then. Thanks!
I'm currently playing it now, the choice of instruments is interesting for Mosdeep.
Oh my god May just insulted Team Aqua's outfits and the female grunt is talking about how she rocks her midriff. XD
I'm playing it too. I'm enjoying the music but it's too hand-holdy to get much enjoyment out of game. Then again, it's a demo afterall.

Well, my plan worked...
... But I have alternative ways to get the code. ._.
So... I have 2 extra US ORAS demo codes.
If you would like one, please PM me, first come first serve basis of course.
I've played up to 5 times now, so I have Mega Glalie, 10 PokeBalls, and 10 Heal Balls waiting to be linked over. Aiming for the Heart Scales next.
Offer is now ONE CODE left.

With Smash I could understand, simply to see how Villager & MegaMan played. With this I can understand if there's exclusive demo stuff.
It was less that and more just people being impatient to play the game, they were paying pretty numbers for the Smash demo at the time.
Yeaaaah, that was pretty idiotic. Especially considering a demo would be released a week later.
I'm willing to wait out the official release.
Besides, I have Shiny breeding to work on, and Looker quests to finally get around to doing.

Did the demo before the store one have unlimited uses? I recall someone making a big deal about it but I'm not sure if it was true.
But the special Smash demo had unlimited plays, unlike the public one. Not really important except for some people.
It's just a matter of incentive mainly. Make something "special" and all that codebegging happens
I would certainly have appreciated a Pokémon code but I didn't get one because of the invisible email setting I couldn't change, so whatever. People here were complaining that those with no activity on Club Nintendo got codes, while the diehards who actually claimed Stars recently didn't get a code at all.

Honestly I forget. You could be right.
I was reading that the ORAS demo in the upcoming code cards is the same, so I don't mind waiting anyway. Only really after the Glalite.
Well Powersaves are a thing, shouldn't be too hard to get people to trade you the stone even if you miss out.
Since I believe you get the Mega evolved Pokemon too I named my Glalie Klondike.
I need to get around to raising a Snorunt. Might raise up Nanook into a fine soul-devouring Glalie.

On a serious note, I want mine to be good in battle and be a shiny.
Breeding is such a monumental process... Which you must take great love, and care... Goddarnit, what am I saying, I freaking bombed the ecosystem outside the Day Care.
To be honest, Hyper Voice, Psyshock and Moonblast. The third... Usually Protect.
I was kind of thinking more of a supporting/defensive role for my Gardevoir (although Moonblast was gonna be included), then again I've been off my game since D/P and missed out on Gen V entirely (which I'm making up for by Christmas). I guess I could use two for certain purposes.
I also named my Glalie Pac-Man.
Well, what I mentioned was for a Mega set... Nothing like a STAB screech that bypasses cute dolls to inflict pain and suffering...
Ah, I see. I'll use that for my main Gardevoir then. Thanks Doc.
Though Hyper Voice is only move tutorable in BW. At least until you get ORAS.

This one joke from Issue 200 of Nintendo Power (February 2006) is the entire reason my Glalie from the demo is named Egg Nog.
Even Mega Glalie enjoys a good egg nog.

For North America there is going to be a Special Dual pack for Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. It's only available through Best Buy and Amazon costing $80 and it comes with a serial code for 100 potions like you can get in Japan.
There's also a secret mission in the Demo, but there's no reward for it and just offers an extra battle you can select at anytime.
Finally the Diancie event will be available in New Zealand and Australia.
Diancie, finally :O
The reward is fighting alongside May! And you can redo that mission anytime you want after unlocking it.
Quote from: Reaperoid on October 27, 2014, 03:22:27 PM

Well, it IS a demo after all.
Yeah I just don't really get why they bothered putting in a secret mission in the Demo that doesn't have a reward than replaying that mission over again, they could have offered more Heart Scales or the other Mega Evolution to Transfer or something.
Then again you get the mission by random chance so I guess they didn't want to leave someone who didn't know about it out.
Because to be honest, one Mega, 10 PokeBalls, 10 Heal Balls AND 5 Heart Scales is quite a sizable reward in the early game. Any more, and it's not a demo anymore.
Eh fair enough, just don't get the point of putting it in myself.
New battles! *goes to try unlocking the secret mission*
Quote from: Dr. Wily II on October 27, 2014, 03:42:25 PMAny more, and it's not a demo anymore.

Oh, when I make the trek out to get a Diance, I'll snag you one as well, Wily.
I need to get my code but alas, I'm never in the area.
Well I will be on the 1st so I'll snag it then when I'm preordering Alpha Sapphire (finally decided the version I wanted)
I should preorder while I'm at it. It'll make the trip even more worth it.
But then I'll have to trek back out to get the game.
Rrg. I need a bike.
After having a somewhat difficult time getting Smash Bros I'm considering pre-ordering the game too, but I'm still deciding if I really should.

Honestly after my bad experiences with finding Nintendo games lately (Because they get far less shelf/display real estate compared to the others.) I'd just pre-order all of their games if you want them at release. However, it is Pokemon. It shouldn't be hard to get.

Actually I think you do get one for each version, I know I read that somewhere else. But yeah unless you're like Wily I imagine that would be the case, it would be good for my Brother if he had a 3DS.

Yeah that's why I'm leaning on not doing it, plus so far it hasn't been announced what pre-order bonus we get, and I honestly don't really like the metal books or the Kyogre figure anyway. The Kyogre figure just looks weird with the clear transparent jaw in my opinion.
I may get mine at Wal-mart like I did with X. It's easier for me to get to Wal-mart on a more regular basis without having to hike into town and take a bus.
I do like the Amazon deal, but it won't work out for my Christmas plans.
Yeah I might just go to Target like I did last time for Y.
I'm gonna hold out on the second version for a while. Hopefully Club Nintendo will run another promo to get a digital version for free.

Huh. One of the Hypno I adopted through GTS (traded a Turtwig to someone who offered a female Hypno for one) came from Johto. She's an old girl.
She's also at lvl 26, so she just evolved. Her stats are pretty terrible and her moveset is severely lacking. I'll set her up with some TMs so she can be a catcher, and then I'll pamper her.

Just did this in Black 2. Gonna transfer 'em all to the Bank to help me out with X (and ORAS, but I won't use 'em for that until I beat the E4 there, just so I can still see the entries of those ones I do catch).
I'll probably end up do the same with Pearl since I have SoulSilver, White, and White 2 waiting for me and I have a bunch of Pokémon in storage.
One thing I forgot to mention, I have an extra demo code, does anyone want it?

New trailer!
Is there an expiration date for the demo code (in case if get my own 3DS)?
I don't know, but it's first come first serve.
Guess I'll take it.
Also, free shiny Beldum? DO WANT!
If no one with a 3DS takes it sure, but I would rather have someone else with one take it now because I don't want to go forgeting about later.
So, I was pampering that Johto Hypno I adopted.
Behold the Hypno Harem.

Lavinnia, Johto Hypno, and Yendy.
The horror.
I don't know what the update did, but I heard that the Diancie Mystery Gift was having problems with guaranteed IVs early on.
I haven't even gotten the update, yet. I assume I'll get it once I close out of the game.
Yeah if not you can just enter the game again or scan the QR code at Serebii like I did since I had Smash in my 3DS.
I don't think the Pumpkaboo I got through Mystery Gift has its Hidden Ability. I'll have to check once this update completes.
QuickEdit: Mine has Frisk.
You can soft reset for the Hidden Ability by saving before you talk to the Mystery Gift girl. That's how I got both a male and female with their HAs.
Okay another secret mission has been discovered and unlike the other obe there's an award for getting it. If you get the mission and complete it you'll get a nugget. It hasn't been discovered if you cen do the mission multiple times to get more even if the nugget guy implies it.

Breed? O^O
*still breeding Sleeper for a shiny*
I'll give him about twenty eggs and then swap him out for some Starter breeding batches. He'll need a rest, an icepack, cream for the chafing, and a Gatorade to rehydrate.
Then after some batch breeding, he's going right back into the Daycare until he produces a shiny!
Apparently one of the things the new patch does is change some Pokeball opening animations for more variety instead of them all being roughly the same.

That is the most random change I could think of, it would have made sense in a Diamond and Pearl remake but not here.
There's probably more to the patch than that.
(http://pbs.twimg.com/media/B1IItrzIUAAzLO7.jpg:large)
Here's the comparisons though. Just screens so not a full look but enough to get the gist.
Huh, I can understand why they were changed then.
My battles will be more colorful, if I'm not just having Mewtwo do all the work for the young'uns warming the bench.
And my old Johto Hypno (whom I've dubbed "Nana") is Gentle, but her best stat is Attack.
...How the hell do I end up with so many mutants?
Apparently the animations were already in the game code but the patch fixed a glitch that prevented them from being used.
The glitch also fixed Vivillon not appearing in the Friend Safari selection screen, that always bothered the heck out of me.
Which reminds me, do you think the Safari Zone is gonna be replaced with the Friend Safari in ORAS? Or maybe it'll be redone to be more like HGSS's Safari Zone.
I'm betting redone and adding a new area for Friend Safari.

I'll see what I can do, been a while since I last bred. XD
Okay more info on the 2nd Secret mission, it starts happening 2 weeks after the playthrough and if you complete it you'll have access to more parts of Mosdeep city, including Steven's house. I just hope the Kecleon finds a good home.
Nah, that Kecleon will suffer the same fate as those dancing guys in XY...
o/` We are dancing for no reason~ And will disappear one day for no reason~ o/`
Still trying to unlock the Double Battle with May... Up to 30 playthroughs now.

Take them all!
Man they're doing a pretty good job of remaking Ruby and Sapphire. I want to throw my jaded goggles on ground, stomp on it, and dive right into Hoenn again.
GLORIOUS TRUMPETS!
So I'm almost done with my Pokedex on X after transferring all the Pokemon from Black 2, barring a few that it didn't want to transfer.
Which is rather annoying considering that 2 of them, Shaymin and Arceus, I kinda needed to complete the 'dex.
So tomorrow after I get my Diancie code, I'll get those too.
I think I read that Japan is getting a Shiny Jirachi!
It might be a re-issue of the shiny Jirachi from earlier this year in Japan.
I wouldn't mind a Shiny Jirachi! XD
We all wouldn't mind. XD
ME FIRST!!! -_-
*PB used Me First!*
*Dr. Wily II used After You!*
Well, today is exactly 15 days since I first got the ORAS demo, and indeed, the strange man mission was unlocked. Free Nugget!
... Still trying to unlock the secret mission. >_>
Well, I was going to make the trek to Gamestop, but I woke up sick, so I can't.
*flips desk*
*pats* There's still time.
So I played the Demo again for the first time this week, and got the Nugget guy on my first try.
EDIT: Hold tight to my Nuggets, Steven what the hell are you trying to say! o-O
WHOA that escalated quickly! XD
It seems that the nugget mission is independent on you playing everyday. It activates so soon as your demo is 15 days old.
That makes sense.
Hey, does anyone know the name of that techno-sounding music in X/Y? It plays in that "waiting" area between the different cities. Or was it a train terminal? I forget.
I really like it and may use it for something in the future.
The gate theme?
Pokemon X & Y Gate Theme (extended) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rtvln-rF3Rw#ws)
Yessssss that! I had so much trouble finding it, for some reason.
Thank you!
Okay so it's just been announced, in Japan at least, if you get the Eon ticket through an event you can send the ticket to other people via Street Pass.
Wow, that is just like the original Eon Ticket!
Quote from: Reaperoid on November 07, 2014, 07:26:21 AM
Wow, that is just like the original Eon Ticket!
Didn't the original require you to give it to a Pokemon and trade it off though?
Stupid that you still need to participate in an event to get it. But it wouldn't be pokemon without stuff gated behind events I guess.
All the original tickets were Key Items.
EonTicket could be shared from your game by Record Mixing, but only if you had gotten it from the e-Card; can't share it if you received it by mixing. Also, mixing is how you get it on Emerald.
Yeah it's really a [sonic slicer] to do it though, just ask Chuggaaconroy.
Pokémon Emerald - Bonus Episode 6 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J77J5JSd_5o#ws)
It's not too hard to do. The only problem I had was not having my Link Cable the right way.
I have an e-Reader loaded with the EonTicket data, from which I borrowed the e-Card, so I don't actually own the EonTicket e-Card. It's something that's usually too expensive to get just for the sake of it.
I meant like actually getting the freaking ticket, and if you do it now a days getting a game that wasn't mixed 3 times.
Guess I missed that part.
Stupid and overcomplicated! Gotta screw the kiddies with no friends out of that other Lati.
Anyway, they announced the Eon Ticket would have the same distribution method in the US. People are understandably pissed (going by Facebook and Twitter comments) because Streetpass.
I will never get the Eon Ticket.
I don't get Streetpasses here.
:(
Yeah unless they have a Gamestop event distribution we're probably not getting the ticket. I mean I don't mind too much since I can Transfer Latios from my White 2 if necessary, but I really hate when they make events like this where they put it in a place that not every state has.
*Sigh* Looks like I'll either be begging for one over GTS, or at least bouncing my Lati for dex info of the other Lati.
Yeah pretty much, did you decide on Ruby or Sapphire?
But see the opposite side of that coin is why would you need it if you already have the Latis (From a complicated/tedious Gen 3-Gen 6 Transfer or from a less complicated but still tedious Gen 4-Gen 6 transfer) or if you have a bunch of people who would gladly trade their over their other Lati for Pokedex stuff.
Its not as rough as it was back in ye-olden days of Accessories nobody had and the most people you could trade 'mons with were other people nearby that also had Game Boys because wireless communications weren't nearly as advanced back then. Its a bit shitty that they're not just doing like First-Week/First-Month Mystery Gift (Like the Victini Liberty Pass in BW) but at the same time I imagine they don't really care either way since they know people will just transfer/trade for them if need be.
EDIT: Wow that response took way longer than I intended.
Pretty much, but that doesn't mean I can't [sonic slicer] about how stupid it is.

Sapphire, just to be a rebel.
Some day, I should grab that last remaining White 2 cartridge at the store and play it, and then start transferring stuff from it.
Oh wait you have to get Black 2, I forgot I got Latios in Soul Silver and Latias in White 2. Sapphire gets Latias so you need Black 2 for Latios.
If Wal-mart has it, I'll get it. If Gamestop has a pre-owned, I'll get it.
Sure it's focused on StreetPass but it's still a code that's gonna be given out first and foremost. And just like the demo codes, I know we'll be able to get them online somehow from people giving spares away.
Yeah you can get it via StreetPass, but the origin will be a serial code you can input. The first people to have Eon Tickets will get them via code and spread them via StreetPass.
Problem is that there going to be given away at Play! Pokémon Organisers and heads of StreetPass groups, I don't know what the former is and I don't have a StreetPass group close by.
Quote from: Sakura Leic on November 07, 2014, 10:58:55 PM
Pretty much, but that doesn't mean I can't [sonic slicer] about how stupid it is.
Oh no, that's perfectly fine. Its a dumb way to distribute stuff, by limiting it to events or things that mostly only exist in major markets and whatnot. Rural areas and smaller markets get the short end of the stick and thankfully for the most part Nintendo's been good about not making the Streetpass stuff super necessary for the most part or providing an alternate solution (Like the Streetpass challenges in Smash, which can be done in practice while the 5 hits one can be broken with a hammer. Or the Bravely Default Norende sidequest where you got Villagers via spotpass in addition to any you got in Streetpass.)
This though, nope. Limit it's availability because Pokemon.

Codes will still make their way online. They have a way of doing that.
I've only ever gotten one StreetPass. It was in Hanover. I've since taken my 3DS through Gettysburg a few times, taken it to Gamestop, played it while in a café, played it at the doctor's office, taken and played it at Shippensburg University, played it in Mount Holly, played it outside of Carlisle, played it in Emitsburg, played it outside of Fairfield...
Nothing.
I've only ever gotten that one StreetPass when I was playing it out on Franklin Street in Hanover.
Yeah. No StreetPass groups here.
... That sucks for now, unless MaxSoft does something down here.

I just thought of something, since we can't have Gambling in Pokemon games anymore does that mean Mauville is going to have Voltorb Flip or something else. I hope it's something else.
Oh god. I would like if they have the option to just exchange money for coins. VF... Isn't very lucrative with coins.
Especially since I am not good at Mind Sweeper.
It can be rather addictive, but the payout is pretty bad, even if you finally get to the higher levels. Of course, one wrong move, and you fall back to the lowest level again.
And that's why it sucks.
GIVE ME BACK MY SLOT MACHINES
... Or just the money-to-coin option.
Srsly, by the post-game, you have so much money that you can just exchange for that Porygon!
Well we can't have Gambling because of European soccer moms.

Finally those dreams back in the day of going into space to fight Deoxys seems to finally come into fruition. Though not confirmed it seems like this will be a post game scenario so Deoxys might not be an event Pokemon anymore. Also showing more Pokemon you can get in those mirage spots, and it seems to include the Regis. THANK [tornado fang]ing GOD.
But I liked having to get both Relicanth and Wailord to unlock their lairs. It felt like I had discovered ruins lost undersea for many years and I was the first to unlock their secrets.
Sure the Braille was weird but they could've figured out a way to make it work with a new puzzle.
I just found the entire thing to not only not make sense or be cryptic, I found it absolutely tedious.
I can see that. But the idea of ancient ruins sealed away for eons scattered throughout Hoenn... Seeing those monolithic structures and wondering what they were, only to unlock them and step inside...
I just liked that feeling of discovery. And to find out they're just scattered in Mirage Spots? That takes some of that fun away.
I mean they presented the Mirage Spots initially as a way to catch Legendaries not native to Hoenn.
And now it seems like even some Hoenn-native Legendaries are in there too.
I liked the Alph Ruins much better, even if the rewards sucked and getting all of it requires really going out of your way to do it. I liked the concept of finding ruins under the sea, but I don't like the execution of it.
Also I think the exploration of the sky is honestly pretty comperable.
I suppose so, I just wish that Hoenn-native Legendaries were actually on the ground still. Seems like a copout so they didn't have to redesign the puzzles.
Unless they're all there and you need all three to access new puzzles on the ground to get Regigigas, that would be cool.
You probably do, and hey it give validity to that strange line of the Regis flying away if you fail to catch them.
Well they mentioned Regigigas in the trailer, but it seemed separate from the Regis being in the Mirage Spots since they made a point to say you needed all three to encounter Regigigas
That's what I meant.

I think they just wanted to make it sound more exotic in the American version.
It is stretching it. The theory is solid, there's no need throw in something like that.
My sis-in-law grew zinnia in her garden.
Does Higana have anything to do with flowers in Japanese, because she might be connected to the weapon since it is a flower. Of course that's also stretching it.

That article is coincidence blown out of proportion, and attempts to grasp at straws.
Look, I want equal gender representation as much as the next person, but this is a demo. I really don't expect a whole lot from a demo.
TL;DR but I love how it started with the writer being surprised about how people are overly excited about the demo before going over the 'gender issues'.
Aw [tornado fang], I missed the Diancie event.
THANKS ASTHMA AND SCABIES. B(
You may still have time, as the codes themselves are valid through to February.
Tomorrow I'm heading into town, so I'll see if Gamestop has any left.
I can just trade you one (again) if you want.
Hoopa, the Lati@s mega stones and the Soul Dew too since they seem to be tradeable now.
I just need an Arceus to fully complete my Pokedex. Can't get online with my 3DS at home though so I just put a Palkia up on GTS asking for a Arceus.
Apparently nobody is offering them, cause whenever I search for them nothing comes up.
Event Pokemon can't be traded through GTS. You either have to trade directly with someone or PokeGen.
But is an Arceus earned through, say, the Azure Flute and caught via any other Pokeball still an Event one? I thought only Pokemon in Cherish Balls couldn't be traded through GTS, and that wouldn't be one in a Cherish Ball.

The politicization of gaming has been under a scrutiny as of late. I cannot really elaborate because that would go against the rules of the bored. All I can say it that I want my politics and my games to stay as separate as possible. I do not want debates on gender issues when I play Pokemon. I want to save the world from Team (Fill in the blank here), dammit!

If I recall correctly, I tried to use an Arceus caught with a Master Ball via Hall of Origins then sent it to my brother's Pokemon Y to use it on its GTS, and no dice. So it's probably not the ball it was caught in, rather they don't want Arceus flooding GTS (though I'm guessing hackers can bypass this). In any case, I have an Action Replay for the DS, so I can get another Arceus, either from Hall of Origins via the Azure Flute event or the promotional one from Arceus and the Jewel of Life movie, and transfer it to my brother's Black then to Y and give you one Mirby.
Arceus would be prevented from being put on GTS by a ribbon.
Well the issue is that I can't get online with my 3DS here, and when I can get online it's not like I can really contact anyone to do a trade. I had two legit Arceus's ready to transfer via PokeTransporter but it didn't take either of them for whatever reason; that's the main reason I still need one. :\

The 12 or so event Pokemon like Arceus and Mew are restricted from being traded on the GTS, which is stupid because you can still offer a Pokemon for them and clog it up with impossible trades.

That's odd because I've sent a couple Arceus over to my brother's Y before no problem but one of them with a nature fixed to Serious on the encounter didn't get through. Probably the faulty online checker.

I really hate that. Everytime I see a Hoopa on GTS with an impossible offer, it's like they're saying "Haha! We got Action Replay and you don't! We got [whatever event legendary Pokémon] and we're not sharing!" while rubbing in our faces. And Sakura, if you want I can give you a Meloetta and Keldeo since I have the AR codes for them.

If it's new for gen6, then I wasn't aware of it. At the time, Ten'imura Regigigas could be put on GTS, since it has no ribbon, not to mention it's how I got mine.
There's a patch for the Pokemon Bank for ORAS compatibilities.
Sweet, now I can get my Pokemon from my brother's Y and teach them moves from R/S/E. Still want the Keldeo and Meloetta, Sakura?

[spoiler]I have to say the Honege Swords already seem better than the MissingNo sword Black has, especially Xavier's.[/spoiler]
Technically no but I have my brother's 3DS to work with. I'll get them in my brother's Black then send them to Y so we can trade tomorrow. Any specific Nature you want for any of them before I go bed?
And yes the rest of XYventures Ch.2! *picks up after Eps. 10*
Not really I don't plan to use them.
Also.
[spoiler]Yvonne is such a weaboo it's amazing.[/spoiler]
Alrighty then, a Meloetta and Keldeo for Sakura it is. Tomorrow. And hopefully nothing springs up.
[spoiler]I'm so jelly over Xavier right about now.[/spoiler]
[spoiler]Also the Honedges are missing their sheathes for some reason....[/spoiler]
I may take you up on some AR mons... with crap Natures so as not to arouse suspicion.

Yeah, now I have to draw Sycamore wearing nothing but an Aegislash.
So... I've decided to play as a girl in AS to emulate one of a small handful of female characters I've made for the Pokemon universe. It'd have been better done if they carried over the character customization, but whatever.
I haven't decided what gender to play as. I should play as a guy and give him a girl's name.
I will be a boy named Sue.
Here some upcoming anime episode stuff no one cares about:

There's a patch for the Pokemon Bank for ORAS compatibilities.
Datamining the new ORAS-related data in the patch which includes a full ORAS item list seems to suggest
[spoiler]No new Megas other than the ones revealed unfortunately.[/spoiler]
Oh, Serena... if you're going to boobs-and-butt, you need to twist your spine some more. You need to show more than just part of an armpit boob. How do you expect to become an Escher Girl with such poor contortion?

She's 10
Never too early to start, if other Escher Girls are any indication! 8D
She's like 17 in the games so it counts enough.
Oh please everyone knows May would make a much better Escher Girl, her original design at least.
EDIT: So serebii started to cover the games already and most of the TMs given by gym leaders being mostly the same except for Watson now giving Volt Switch so I guess he might be like Elesa in strategy, Winona gives out Roost, and Wallace gives out.......Waterfall? Though Norman's prize hasn't been listed yet.
EDIT 2: After the Delta episode you get the Johto Starters, after beating the Elite 4 again you get Unovan Starters, and after beating them yet again you get the Sinnoh Starters. They didn't say if you can only choose 1 each but I'm assuming that's the case.
Norman gives out Retaliate.
Oh cool, that might mean I don't have to worry about Facade.
[spoiler]So according to serebii, Steven will give you the starter Mega Stone around the time he gives you the Devon Scope. That's like in the late main game... My starter team js looking bleak... Unless... Like in XY, I can buy the other starter stones somewhere.[/spoiler]
And based on the starter prizes... QUICKIE I NEED YOUR HELP FOR THE BALANCE STARTERS D:
[spoiler]I don't think I'm too bummed about that since I want Sceptile and Altaria on my team.[/spoiler]
I need more info!
I still need to think of the other 3 mons...
Countdown: 9.5 hrs to liftoff.
I'll go get Sleeper out of the Daycare and get some Starters bred...
After a few Starter batches, Sleeper is going back in the Daycare. I'll at least give him some Gatorade, an ice pack, and a cream for the chafing. DrSmoothLove plays rough.
Thanks. D:
[spoiler]Based on how I choose starters... I'll need... To check my X to confirm which starters I need... I think Chimchar and Tepig. ._.[/spoiler]
And I've just checked serebii, the balance starter stones are buyable. Ok then, that's settled...
I have a Chimchar I can breed and a 5IV Tepig. I'll Destiny Knot that one.
Deepest lore.

So, just got home from the midnight release of AS, and I wanna start playing it.
20 more minutes before I knock off from work...
If I'm lucky, I can pick up my copy next week.
My precioussssssssssssssssssss...
*foams at the mouth*
tl;dr the original ruby and sapphire are alternate dimensions where the ultimate weapon never existed
so gen 6 is not canon okay
Alternate universes!? FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF- *foams at mouth*
Maybe... just maybe... Gen 6 is canon, but Gen 3 is not due to wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey stuff.

DARN YOU AZ!!
[spoiler]Been playing Omega Ruby, will be starting Alpha Sapphire soon. So far, the nostalgia has been making me tear up quite a bit, especially the truck part, haha.[/spoiler]
Well [parasitic bomb].....
[spoiler]When you rematch the Elite 4 all members have the ability to Mega Evolve their last Pokemon.
Also Glacia has replaced her Sealeos with Froslasses but she still has her 2 Glalies and her Walrein due to the lack of Ice Pokemon in Hoenn before post game.[/spoiler]
[spoiler]So I've stopped OR in Petalburg City after unlocking the PlayNav (PSS/Amie/Training). And then I find out I need to clear the Rustboro Gym to get the BuzzNav for the Streetpasses. DARN[/spoiler]
[spoiler]You get Latios/Latias mid game after beating Norman.[/spoiler]
EDIT: How to get Regigigas.
[spoiler]You have to have all 3 Regis and go to the Island Cave in the Day time, it can't be night. You also have to have your Regice nicknamed and holding something cold like a Castelia Cone, Nevermelt Ice, or Snowball. Yes you do need to do that. Pacifidlog town has hints to do that, but the hints are different for different players.[/spoiler]

I got AS because the mall was practically deserted at the time. I found out that I couldn't name my Treecko Pine thanks to the Nintendo censors so I named him Cedar instead, and he has the perfect Nature for him too.
Let me know when you're ready for your Meloette and Keldeo, Sakura.
I'm not even sure what I'll name my Treecko. Got plenty of time to figure it out since I'll end up being the last of us to actually get the game.

I wouldn't count your Torchics before they hatch.
You need to wait until possibly after Thanksgiving to get your copy, too?
[spoiler=:(]Possibly on my birthday (Feb. 28) or much later, depending on when (and if) New 3DS comes stateside. Also my Christmas list for this year is already packed with last gen Pokémon games and JRPGs on the Wii.[/spoiler]
I just got Diancie. A friend of mine got me a code when he went into Gamestop today. That cinema was... unexpected.
Trying to find a Ralts, oh I miss how common they are in Y.
The DexNav helped with that.
Hell, it seems to make the rare Pokemon common, at least it did for my OR with regards to Surskit.
Yeah I've been finding lots of Surskit, hell there was one that was level 13! [tornado fang] that noise.
Lvl13!? Darn, it must have some good Egg moves on it.
Yeah it was odd.
EDIT: Then there was a level 12 Wurmple.......
And I'm just sitting here breeding Sleeper for a Shiny.
LEVEL 13 FEMALE RALTS!
EDIT: [tornado fang] it teleported.
From the looks of it, your Search level is pretty high, leading to those high-levelled DexNav encounters.
Maybe, I found a male and caught it but I really want a Female. Maybe I can find one with an actual attacking move too.
Just played both my games up to the first Center so I could get my free Beldums. Started with Mudkip in AS and Treecko in OR. I have a feeling the latter won't be on my team in the end.
Why not?

Heh, mine was male too, and I intend to trade to my Y to TM Psyshock and Dazzling Gleam, because. :P
I found a Female with Encore, and now Ralts learns Confusion at Level 4 so I'm good.
My Gardevoir will be male. Too bad I can't genderbend a Gallade...
But you could! In other media! bVd
At least Trap!evoir is doable in-game! 8D
Must have a team of all traps...
Hell, I plan to play as a Brendan named Sue.
Quote from: Sakura Leic on November 22, 2014, 03:44:26 AM
Why not?
From I remember with XY, his default movelist is kinda meh. Lightning Rod doesn't seem to be a useful ability for the team I have in mind. Not to mention Mega Sceptile does have a double Ice weakness. And based on the demo, his defenses suck. The Hariyama in the expert battle can [tornado fang] him up real easy.
I'll see how it goes. It would be nice to have a Grass Pokemon, but it's not a necessity.
Mudkip, though, is a lock.
I'll most likely end up focusing all my training on some crutch Pokemon.
I found it easier to just knock out dex nav Pokémon so I get more encounter data for that species, which means higher search level. I'm only catching pokemon that show up with Potential stars and (!) First Moves or Abilities.
Also, catch a Surskit and level up for sweet scent, to find hordes. That will increase your encounter data a lot, meaning high search level for that species.

The bane of ALL Pokemon Trainers.
If it were my game, yeah I'd be cussing up a storm. But, I won't get my copy until after Thanksgiving, so it's not my screenshot.
Still made me go FFFFFFFFFFFFFFF nonetheless because knowing my luck, the only Shiny in the entire game will be that one.
Where do you get the PSS?
Wally gives it to you after he catches his Ralts.
I have one question.
How soon can you play with your Pokemon in Amie?
After Wally catches Ralts.
So, currently, my character is a lady named 'Godiva' (she'd be called 'Go' as a nickname, lot's of family history I have regarding the character I named her for) and I just beat Brawly with a zubat named 'Martha' (took me this long to get to this point because brothers both got WiiU SSB4 and wanted to fight me).
Still self-trading the starters. Just finished with Mudkip. Time to kill AS, and start with Treecko...
I'm still trying to breed for a Shiny. Took my team through the Chateau a few times while picking up eggs.
Once I'm done with OR... I want to trade that Japanese Ralts over from my X...
And breed for a Shiny. Again.
Trading... Hoo boy, trading...
I can trade without another 3DS, right? Just Bank everything?
Yep, since Bank is linked to your NNID, not the game.
Yep. Pokebank: Making trading with yourself easy.
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.
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.
I can't wait to get my copy...
...and not be able to look at Flannery the same again. 8U
Flannery, and NPC!May are so adorkable. :3
Can't look at May the same way, either. 8U
I wonder what nickname I should give my character. I'm going to call him Sue. What nickname can I get from Sue?
Mary. 8D
There are no nicknames in this game.
Doesn't mean we can't give him one!
He will be a boy named Sue, nicknamed Mary.
Seems legit. XD
I can't decide what Water Type I want, it's always the hardest type to decide for me sometimes.
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.
Poochyena... Zigzagoon... Wingull... Surskit...
Really depends on your definition of crutch.
I might actually give Sharpedo a go. So I just need to decide the last Pokemon to get for my team.
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.
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.
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.
Perhaps he's just... Sleeping on the job.

It'll have either of the fangs. I got Fire Fang on mine.
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
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!
HOLY. [parasitic bomb].

[spoiler]Where are my Trumpets!?
But seriously, our little Wally is all grown up now. O^O[/spoiler]
I just beat the first gym and I guess I have to beat the second to get my Aron. I also decided my last Pokemon will be a Duskull.
So... When is BuzzNav given to you?
After you beat the First Gym and take care of the Aqua Grunt.
EDIT: Okay I need the Mach Bike to get an Aron.
So it's at the Rusturf Tunnel huh... Should have guessed, haha.
Some of the Mega Stones I wanted to use are only available in postgame. One of my prospective teams only requires one such stone, though. So I'll just get them in my first game and trade them over to the second later.
Well I just beat the 27th strongest member of Team Aqua.
Quote from: Sakura Leic on November 23, 2014, 04:04:03 AM

27th strongest Grunt. Or did they change it to 'member' for AS? I accidentally skimmed through the text.
Nah it was Grunt.
Wow... Maxie looks old... And, seeing the personalities of Archie and Maxie, I think I should've gotten OR for the villain experience.
Maxie has always been the calculative one, even back in RSE.
I prefer Archie really.
Archie's more of a bro. :P
Okay evolved my Ralts, now I should be able to take on Brendan.
Yeah, but I sorta feel bad for beating up Archie. >3>
Hey man a friend will go along with his friend no maatter how stupid his idea is, a real friend will beat the crap out of him if his plan is stupid and puts him in danger.
That's how I see it.
The nugget guy appeared in Mauville in the most awkward way possible......
EDIT: And I just realized that I can't get a Carvanha until I beat Norman......[tornado fang].
Does he jiggle and squeeze and warm his Nuggets in his hands?
No he just stopped me in a spot in Mauville, asked me for my hand, gave me the nugget, said some stuff, walked away, and then said Nuggets aren't funny.
Quote from: Sakura Leic on November 23, 2014, 06:39:06 AM
and then said Nuggets aren't funny.
That's a good nugget of information.
Asked you for your hand.
"Hey kid! Close your eyes and hold out your hand!"
...Yeah, seems legit.
Even better if you are Brendan. 8D
Hey does the Pokemon Bank accept Eggs?
Yes or No answer only.
I don't have Eggs, so I don't know. >_>
So, I beat Flannery then just stormed through all of the Trick Master's challenges. No need to get all the badges.
Quote from: Sakura Leic on November 23, 2014, 07:09:53 AM
Yes or No answer only.
So far I've been hearing no it's not possible.
So, anybody else at the point of secret bases yet?
No idea. If I'm lucky (and remember to bring the preorder card), I can pick up AS this week after my appointment.
Until then... Sleeper, stop shooting blanks! GIVE ME A SHINY :W
Quickie!
See if you can deposit an Egg into Bank.
For SCIENCE!!
I don't have any boxed right now. I'll go pick up a few and try later.
Good morning, by the way.
It's morning already?
That was fast. GOOD MORNING!
7:32 am here. So, it's morning in some part of the world.
I usually tackle an egg backlog in a single playthrough, so I don't think I have any waiting. I also need to update the Bank before I start trying to move stuff into it. May deposit some Drowzee and move some trades I got.

LIESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS (Seems that your clock is adjusting.)
And yea, best to update Bank now before you grab AS.
Okay so I got my Carvahna and training my Aron for the Gym, probably going to be a side quest day mostly.
EDIT: I think the male Biker is trying to be an Escher girl.....
Escher Girl: It's Not Just For Women.
Hawkeye can attest to that. *nods*
Okay I beat Watson now I need to train my Carvahna before the next gym.
Okay, got another question. For someone who's only played X, what's the learning curve? Will I be able to get into the game with little to no problem, or will I be frustrated and grinding like crazy because I've never played Gen 3 and only know how to get through the game with an insane level advantage?
The game is honestly not hard, though if you want an Aron you have to back track for it when you get the Mach Bike. You get the EXP share before the first Gym and even though you don't seem to be able to Mega Evolve until before the 6th gym it's not that bad.
You can rematch trainers to get more Experience by leaving the screen it seems and the Dex Nav can help a bit if you can find a Tailow with Brave Bird or something. Again not that hard.
Okay, good to know. Can't wait to get it after Thanksgiving!
Backtrack for Aron? ARRRRGH.
I WANT AN ARON BEFORE I FACE BRAWLY! ;^;
I plan to grind between each Gym to see what all I can find and catch.

The DexNav will be very helpful with that, as it tracks all the Pokemon you have seen/caught. Once you caught everything, you can a crown at the DexNav screen for the area.

Seems there's only one solution... I need to breed the Lairons in my X, until I get Fly and backtrack. ._.
It's not that big of a deal with the Cycling Road and Mr. Briney.
How soon would I be able to get any of my baby Pokemon from X? The way you guys talk about it, it seems like it'd be pretty soon. I assumed that I wouldn't be able to send any over until after I beat the game.
Honestly as long as you have the Bank I think you can send them anytime.
Once Wally updates your PokeNav Plus, you can start trading.
Also, you use Bank, you need to have the PokeDex, which is right after you beat your rival at Route 103.

You could put them in the Friend Code list. I'll go add Sapph's now...
Hmm, guess that works too. Maybe add a footnote to the thread title too.
By the way, did we have a list of who had what Friend Safari?
That was the first post of this thread.

I am so stupid.

I think I'll catch one first and then waste time looking for one so it'll be easier, I think I can get Dusk and Quick Balls here.
Got one with Dragon Rush and Round.
I just realized something.
It's going to take me forever to get Badges.
Because of Amie.
I just changed my clothes in the middle of the contest lobby.
So, turns out that sharpedo now has a special overworld surfing sprite.
Yeah and it makes you go faster.
I should send over one of my many baby Drowzee. Gwendolen has I think two good IVs. She can sit in the Box until I have enough badges to start raising her without worry.
Also, just beat Liza & Tate and I'm now taking on Tam Aqua again.
I accidentally forgot to save so I had the do the contest over again, on the plus side Cosplay Pikachu has a nature that doesn't lower any of the Attacking Stats and I wanted to use her for Cool Contests. I believe you either have to win a Master Rank or all Master Ranks for Lucario's Mega Stone.
You have to get Master Rank for all 5 contest types, and beat Lisia in a Pokemon battle after. Her rival will give you the Lucarite.
Gotcha, oy vey I only got one Master Rank in Sapphire with a Nintales, and it was hard.
And if all else fails...
Trade over a Riolu holding the Lucarite. >.>
I need a second 3DS and I am not getting one until Christmas next year.
I wonder if it's possible to ace all the contests with just Cosplay Pikachu. They usually won't gift you a Pokemon with that specialized trait for nothing...
Probably, it's Contest Stats are pretty ridiculous.
Well then, time to mix up some rainbow PokeBlocks, and max out all her contest stats!
Or his, the gender is dependent on your Gender.
... Wait what. I thought it was always female, but was given as Rock Star for Brendan, and Pop Star for May! D:
Nah apparently it's also Male for Brendan according to Serebii.
... That makes the heart-shaped pattern on its tail VERY disturbing. >_>
Time to try to catch primal kyogre...

Well... All I could find on the matter is basically what I said: Rock Star for Brendan, and Pop Star for May. Even the gift page has it has female for both. *shrug*
Oh maybe tney edited it then, ignore me.
Whee~ Just caught kyogre AND was given the Eon Flute! Free flying here I come!
SAPPH TOO FAST
So how is Soaring?
Soaring's pretty nice. Lets ya have an extra spot for a not-flying mon, buuuuuut sometimes it's a little hard to tell where I'm going.
Though, it DOES beg the question of how latias/latios is able to come get you when it's in the PC, and if the PC isn't where it is, where are all your pokemon being kept?
MAGIC
They're kept in a stable.
Nah, they are kept in a hanger. Since they are jets.
[KSSHT] Latias Flight ORAS G3, you are now cleared for takeoff...
I just beat Flannery and her entire Gym is full of stuff that can be taken the wrong way by the internet. After I do the Trick House I'm going after Norman, I better get Toxic ready on someone.
Just have a mon with a strong fighting attack. Also, buy the Metronome in Mauville, that'll be helpful.
Toxic might not be a good idea if they still had Facade. I like Sleep myself.
No Facade to worry about, he has Retaliate.
Giving out Retaliate doesn't mean no Facade in the move sets. Hoenn Leaders have always been a bit genre savvy.
He has no Facade, I checked.
Huh.
I AM DISAPPOINTED IN YOU, "DAD"
YOU TAUGHT ME TO SKILL SWAP MY SLAKING, BUT NOW NO FACADE!? JUST BECAUSE YOU DON'T GIVE IT OUT ANYMORE!?
NICE GOING, "DAD"
Well Retaliate is still going to be a [sonic slicer] to deal with.
If Lenora was anything to go by. Still workable though.
Yeah I need to figure out who to put Toxic on.
Who do you have at the moment? Also, do you have Venoshock on hand?
I got a Lairon, Sceptile, Swablu, Gardevoir, and Shapedo with me along with a Linnoon as a Slave. I also don't have any Fighting Type TMs nor do I have Venoshock.
...
That is hard. The only one I can see surviving reliably is Lairon. What level is it?
Just Evolved, I could teach it Toxic and temporarily get rid of Dig I suppose.
Just as evolved... Meeeeep... If only it was an Aggron...
Also Dig is fun to use if you use it on Slaking's Truant turn. It Truants, you Dig, it misses on its active turn, you hit with your Dig, rinse and repeat.
... Unless Slaking has Earthquake... Then you are screwed.
The problem is that's the only TM move it has, though I could re learn things qoth a Heartscale, probably Take Down. Besides I am not grinding it to level 40 something.
Quote from: Dr. Wily II on November 25, 2014, 02:27:17 AM
... Unless Slaking has Earthquake... Then you are screwed.
I don't even think he really has Fighting Moves this time.
*shrug*
That's the most I can think of for Lairon. Though to be honest, Take Down isn't worth it, even with Rock Head.
You could always use my strategy of grinding until you have a massive level advantage. 8D

Venoshock TM can be found in Mauville store.
Well then. You need to find a compatible Venoshock user to monopolize the double damage due to Toxic.
And then grind that user until you have a level advantage! 8D

No.
Do eeeeeet... Sceptile is poisonoussssssss...
I think my Lairon will be just fine.
EDIT: Actually he can't even learn Venoshock anyway.
EDIT 2: In fact no one can learn Venoshock.
... Back to the old plan then. ._.
I'm sure I'll be fine I'm going to do the next Trick House before this.
As I've said before, once you beat Flannery, you can do all of the Trick House trials. Just keep going through until he says something along the lines of "You're better than me!? Have a tent, I'm off to learn new tricks!"
Yeah I have one more before I'm blocked off, the final 2 can't be accessed unitl I beat Norman and Winona.
Nope, I plowed through them all before fighting Norman.
Really, Serebii said otherwise.
Serebii was wrong.
Okay I'll do the rest of them.
Off to challenge the Elite. Wish me luck.
Quote from: Sapphire Knight on November 25, 2014, 04:43:51 AM

Hmm... Will need you for SCIENCE when you get to the Delta Episode... Namely...
[spoiler]I believe there is a save point before you challenge Rayquaza, help me check on this. Also, help me check if there's a save point after capturing Rayquaza, but before facing Deoxys.[/spoiler]
You... do know you can save anywhere, right?
Not if it's cut scenes to the max, which seems to be leaning that way.
He meant if there is a break in the cutscenes to save.
And now I am the champion~! Almost screwed up because Dad is making Thanksgiving this year a LOT more complicated than it needs to be.
Time for your first order of business as Champion! *pushes you into plot*
Yes, Champion!
*Kicks Sapph into AOHA*
GO SAVE THE WORLD, CHAMPION
AOHA? What's that? >_>;
The new Hoenn RP. >.>
My good this game gave me the warm fuzzies after beating Norman, so many fuzzies!
I feel the only appropriate name for a Bird thing you can use as an Airship is Silbird.
I shall call mine.... Lockheed.
Because of the Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird.
Latios and Latias? I tend to name mine Tsukiyomi and Amaterasu respectively... Or leave their names as-is.
Latias, I'm not sure what I would name Latios since I can't use Epoch. It be hilarious if I called him Black Jack.
In other news, I found 3 areas specifically designed for hidden bases and am debating making a new base in one of them, which would mean a new QR code...
I decided on a Lati name, and yet I still haven't figured out what I'll name my Starter. I'm thinking of going with Treecko, but I'm still not sure, and hell if I know what I'll name it.
Douglas?
Douglas Fir... Tempting...
Needs more pun, like Flamin' Yawn.
Mine is named Dragoon. |3
As long as it doesn't have the word Pine because apparently Nintendo forbids it, must be a bad word in another language.
Spike is also apparently a bad word. o3o
Ah Pine is French for Dick, that explains it.
Well, there goes my chance to name it Pine-sol.
Gingko Gecko is a tempting option, and I do like alliteration. And oh god, I thought of something so bad that I have to use it...
Leapin' lizards, it's the Leafin' Lizard!
Oh god. Oh god it's terrible. JWittz would love it.
I didn't know JWittz was punny, guess I haven't watched him enough.
I finally finished all the Trick House levels, also for those who haven't done it don't fprget to check the cushion the Trick Master is standing on after the last one, it contains a big Nugget.
Oh god. I'm so rusty at Super Training. >_>
Aw I just found out the New Mauville Side Quest happens after you fight Primal Groudon/Kyogre. Guess I have to use Sharpedo for Winona.
Holy [parasitic bomb] I just found out there's no limits to raising contest stats, that means you can max out all contest stats on any Pokemon as long as you have the berries regardless of Nature! Now it's easier than ever to Evolve Feebas if you don't want to trade it with a Prism Scale, [tornado fang] YES!
AWRIGHT
Easy Contest wins, here I come!
Well you still need to have a good Strategy and be adaptive in your Contests but yes.
So Cosplay Pikachu IS valuable!
Well even if they still had the limit it's still very valuable, I recommend starting with the Cool Contest since it's starting moveset has moves all in the Cool category.
Will do when I get there.
Started up Super Training... Almost max out my first Pokemon...
Also....
[spoiler]You can find a Light Ball at Route 120.[/spoiler]
EDIT: I can ride my bike in the Hot Springs..........
OKAY! So, Delta Episode update: There is a chance to save between cutscenes and taking Rayquaza on.
Edit:: And if you accidentally knock it out, it'll instantly respawn.
Edit 2:: And no save point between Rayquaza and Deoxys.
Ninjas on Route 119 look hilarious. XD
EDIT: The Castform that you get at the Weather Institute comes with a decently high Beauty Contest Stat.
Hmm... I'm debating on training a beta team and some contest mons... Though not entirely sure which mons to use.
Oh my god that Wingull that the pen pals have looks so silly in this game because it actually walks out instead of flying like a badass. XD

[tornado fang]
[tornado fang]I can't even save just after catching Rayquaza!?
Yeah I am definitely using my Master Ball on Deoxys, I was already considering it because the dude has Hyper Beam and Psyco Boost but [tornado fang] that.
Yea, it's a huge [sonic slicer].
... The bigger [sonic slicer] is I can't save!!
Natures darnit... NATURES!!
Oh yeah that is even worse, I mean I don't give a damn about Natures for Legendaries but that is definitely a [sonic slicer].
Well, Synchronize can work for Rayquaza...
But you lead with M-Rayquaza for Deoxys, so Synchro won't help...
Yeah that's honestly a [sonic slicer].
If they gave a save point just after catching Rayquaza, I wouldn't mind.
But I guess they wanted the WHOLE cutscene to flow nicely, all the way to the ending.
Yeah I don't know what Gamefreak was thinking, they could have gave you a save point before you have to go back to Mosdeep.
[spoiler]Right after catching Rayquaza, you fight Zinnia. Right after the battle, you don the Magma/Aqua Suit, and right from the top of Sky Pillar, you ride Rayquaza into space. No Mossdeep at all.[/spoiler]
Considering my Legendaries tend to have lousy Natures, then I look forward to a Deoxys with the shittiest of Natures.

Ah right gotcha, guess that would make sense.
[spoiler]Perhaps before fighting Zinnia... Or before donning the Suit... ANYTHING
Although launching from Mossdeep would work too. You save before you reach the launchpad, and then once at the launchpad, don Suit, BLAST OFF[/spoiler]
Seeing Wallace looking FABULOUS~ in the control room would have been so worth it.
Well...
[spoiler]According to this (http://www.reddit.com/r/pokemon/comments/2n2mhb/), Deoxys is like every other legendary before it in that if you accidently faint it in the climax of Delta, you can encounter it again at the Sky Pillar summit after you beat the Elite Four again. Although the screenshot has a pretty glaring issue, if what the OP said is true...[/spoiler]
I hope that's true for the sake of people who want to use Deoxys competitively.
EDIT: Ugh that lovey dovey couple at the Lilycove Pokemon fan club make me so sick. YOU'RE TOO [tornado fang]ing OLD TO BE PLAYING PRETEND GAMES AND WHY THE [tornado fang] IS YOUR BOYFRIEND THE ALTARIA!
Their Pokelove is a forbidden love.
I mean like a guy pretending he's an Altaria.
Altaria's a dumb pokemon.
....I like Altaria. O^O
I just don't like that its a dragon type.
I'm now opening a can of whoop-ass on the 26 most powerful Aqua Grunt.
I learned of what Pokemon are not available at all in ORAS or ones that are only available after getting the National Dex. Ruined my planned teams. I'd rather use mons that I can get throughout the game regularly.
On the bright side it gave me an excuse to use Magnezone again. I love that thing.

I've never tried Sceptile, Gardevior, Sharpedo, or Dusclops on a regular adventure and I have to say they are pretty good. If you want to use Sharpedo I highly recommend trading one in fron X and Y since you can't get a Carvahna until you beat Norman and therefore can't use it against Flannery.
However I desperately need someone to trade me a Reaper Cloth so I can evolve my Dusclops.

Bonus points for being part Fairy-type.
One thing I recommend is giving it a Metronome, you can buy one at Mauville for 1000 Pokedollars from a dude in a suit. Since it's Attack Stats are kind of weak it needs to hit things a lot and the Metronome powers up moves used consecutively. In other words it's the item of spamming things.
I caught a three star Swablu :D
Attack SAttack Speed
Oooh that is perfect for a Swablu in my opinion.
It has a Lax nature, which isn't as great as it could be, but since the attack stats are alright, I'm training it in HP and SDef.
No First Move, just the 3 Potential stars. I was actually looking for one with Hyper Voice as its First Move...
I managed to get one with Dragon Rush, though I might replace it Dragon Claw when I get the chance since it has better Accuracy.
Yea, I caught a Dragon Rush one as well. But if it's a move that gets replaced anyway, no point to it. Hyper Voice is a tutor move, so getting it during the story for Mega Altaria would have been really nice. I may just make do with Round or Echoed Voice right now, though.
Grgh... Legendaries frustrate me to capture...
I have finally moved out of the Petalburg Pokemon Center, and have already beaten Roxanne in my OR. My Aron rocked her rocks. On my way to Rusturf Tunnel, to finally get the BuzzNav.

I believe you can still use Drowzee and Natu in-game before the National Dex, just like how the event Torchic was useable in XY. It's just that the Pokedex number will be ??? until you get the NatDex.
Ok, a question to everyone. So I have unlocked the BuzzNav in both my OR and AS. And I have activated Streetpass for them. But it isn't like in XY in that if I put both systems to sleep mode, the green LED which signified Streetpass exchange in XY doesn't light up in ORAS. Am I missing something? I have checked how to activate Streetpass, and most say select BuzzNav, and click the upper-right corner icon. And then it will ask if you want to activate Streetpass. But that icon is to connect to the Internet!
I don't know I just clicked on the BuzzNav and it gave me a prompt to activate street pass.
That's how I activated too. I miss that green LED.
Also do you even receive PokeMiles via Streetpass via the Holo Caster like in XY? Or is it through the mailbox icon in BuzzNav?
I notice I seem to get Street Pass data even if I don't close it, the BuzzNav updates a lot at school.
Quote from: Dr. Wily II on November 28, 2014, 01:00:50 AM

Probably the mailbox, I really don't know.
The BuzzNav will be worthless to me. I never get StreetPasses.
I just took my 3DS to Mechanicsburg. I'm going to check if I got StreetPasses.
I did not.
Yeah I honestly don't care about Street Pass.
Except for the Eon Ticket.
Yeah, though I'm honestly not counting on getting it.
I will never see the Eon Ticket.
Ever.
StreetPass just doesn't exist around here for me, unless I go to Hanover.
QuickEdit: Here's me sitting on a toilet.
(http://imageshack.com/a/img661/2418/8Ti9ej.jpg)
A golden ornate toilet. *nods*
There are three toilets in the game and that's the only toilet you can sit on.
Totally worth my time navigating the damn Gym just to get there. That was a [parasitic bomb] to remember.
After all that crap with teleporting, indeed.

One of the reasons why I am seriously considering getting Ringman a 2DS and Y and OR. I want to StreetPass and trade and battle with someone, and I'm guaranteed those if he has the games!
I won the Toughness Master Rank with my Aggron Platina, I think I'll do the others when I beat the Delta Episode, now to the Shoal cave.
Also I read the Garchompite is gotten when you get Platinum Rank with the Secret Base Guild.....which is 1000 flags......oy vey.

QuoteI tried naming my Poochyena "Torpedo".
Nope. Banned.
*sigh* Nintendo
Yeah and Pine is French for Dick, damn you french!
They need to fix their disallowed list parser.
BUT WHAT IF WE WONDER TRADE A FRENCH PERSON SOMETHING NAMED [twin slasher] OR PINE!
Or we trade a Pineco.
PINECO.
I tried to name my Shroomish "SHIITAKE" since it's a mushroom.
Nnnnope!
When you get to the Name Rater name it Zhiitake.
I'm fine with Gyromitra for now!
I see lots of mushrooms that look like brains.
Anyone have a spare Dawn Stone? I only have one 3DS, and I kinda want my Gallade now.
I don't think I do.
Alright, I got one of the stones in my X game. Could I trade it to you, then you can trade it back to my AS?
Do you have an extra Reaper Cloth?
I can get one. It'll take a few minutes.
Okay I am currently in the Shoal Cave, let me finish up here.
Actually, might as well trade over an Absolite too. Anything else you want?
I don't think so.
If I had a Shroomish, I'd name it Portabella.
You got the game recently right, are you at Petalburg Woods?
I haven't started as I had a bunch of stuff to do today. Now Ringman is over, and I can't just play because it'd be rude.
Ah okay then.
Okay finally got it. Ready when you are Sakura.
I can use my AS right?
Yeah they should work fine between each other.
Okay I'll give it a try.
Alright, gonna boot up AS now.
Yay I finally got a Dusknoir that can kick more ass.
All good. Thanks a bunch!
I might actually consider using the Shuppet you gave me. I'm undecided on my 6th party member atm.
I never used a Banette myself, it really doesn't grab my attention like Dusknoir does.
Dusknoir looks good too. It's just its low speed doesn't gel with the team I got going. Banette's stats are a little more well rounded, plus it can Mega Evolve.
I dunno. The other option I have is Ninetales. A Ghost type would be nice to have, but it's not a necessity for me. Nor is a Fire type for that matter. We'll see. For now I have a Gallade and Altaria to play around with.
Yeah I was considering Nintales as my sixth but honestly most of my other Team Members can do things Nintales can other than spewing fire, and my Dusknoir knows Fire Punch.
I'm having a bit of trouble coming up with a team in AS... Since my in-game team will have all the HM moves, sans Dive.
At the moment, I have Shroomish, who will get Rock Smash once it evos, Marshtomp will get Strength, Surf and Waterfall, Taillow gets Fly, and currently Zigzagoon gets Cut. I'll replace Zigzagoon for Sableye later... I have the event Beldum for catching... And wondering if I should stick with Electrike later. I need a Thunder Wave for catching... But I'd like a Numel too. D:
That is tough, also
FEAR PIKABLU FOR ALL THE CUTE CONTESTS ARE BELONG TO HER!
Actually since Manetric can learn Fire type Attacks and Swampert will have Ground Attacks I think you should go with the Electrike.
I know this late and all, but when you want do you want your Meloetta and Keldeo, Sakura? My brother's 3DS is charging though after playing the demo of Super Smash Bros. 3DS while I was waiting.
Hmm... Manectric can learn Flamethrower... All right, Electrike it is.
I think after I beat AS, I don't have the fodder to trade for them quite yet.
I thought you had some Bedews as fodder.
Not in AS and I'm really into it.
Oh god, Staleport City theme~
... And a lone Alakazite in the Market.
Maybe I should also breed one of my 4IV Magic Guard Abra...
I've yet to start AS, as I've been distracted today due to stuff. And in regards to breeding, I'm still after that Shiny. Knowing my luck, though, when I finally get the Shiny, it'll only be "decent" and have one decent IV and have Forewarn.
I think by the time you start, you will suppass me. XD
I'm still wanting for the guide to come in... Should be next week.
I hate missing out on items and such, even though I talk with everyone.
There needs to be more secret base QR codes being shared around here
Put them in the Friend Code list. That's where I put Sapph's.

How exactly do I let you guys see my QR code?
The Secret PC should save it to the SD card. Otherwise I have no idea, not done it.
I see, I'll look into it later.
Do what Sapph did and snap a pic of it? That's my guess.
Lets wait until Sapph actually gets here and then he can tell us, also for those of you who haven't made your Secret Base don't be that ass who blocks the way to your PC with your avatar, I ran into that way too many times.

Okay, so, I'll go through the whole process so that I know what I'm talking about.
First, you go to your base's PC and select 'Manage QR Code patterns', after which you select 'Share a Secret Base'. Your QR code should appear on your top screen now. Hitting 'Your Message' will change the message written on the bottom of it, and selecting 'Save to SD Card' will, obviously, save it to the SD card in your 3DS, assuming you have one.
At that point, I saved, Quit, took my SD card out of my DS, found the image file of my QR code (it should be a jpeg), copied it to my computer, and uploaded it to photobucket to link here. Speaking of which, updated my QR code to my new base with my Champion Team (I hope).

I'll go update the Friend Code thread.
Well, I think it still may work, it'd just be the lower-leveled version of Godiva's team and located in it's old location. Though, scanning two QR codes from the same person may overwrite the previous one.
Well, I've overwritten your old QR code with your new one... So... It's the same, I guess.

Ahem, so I took part in my first Cuteness Contest, with a Skitty.

I GOT MINE TOO!!!
Remember you can get a Light Ball at Route 120.
I really like what they did with Mauville City.
Yeah still pissed I can't do the New Mauville side quest until I get Primal Kyogre but I guess having Thunderbolt right after Norman was seen as overpowered. Also hate that I can't get Energy Ball until post game.

Also, with regards to the O-Powers given in the Pokemon Center...
Each "guy" appears on a new day?
Depends, sometimes the same guy will give you a new power the next day.
I got two O-Powers from the first guy Giddy, before he walked out of the Pokemon Center.
I guess I'll see if the next guy appears tomorrow.
So, no Bonding Time?
I'd say "good" but I don't want to know how you get O-Powers now... D:
Nope, it's handed out like an item.
The true bonding will be the finale...
OH GOD NO D:
The bonding that gives you... Hatching Power. D:

That will indeed be helpful, should I ever want to have Yuri tendencies from Lisia again~
So I tried out the new Mach Bike.
... It's not as fast as it used to be, but it is a lot better to turn and such.
... To think I felt that it's SLOWER than the Kalosian bike, and felt almost the same speed as the Acro Bike, which is still fun to pogo on.
I actually felt that the Mach Bike was faster than the Kalos bike myself.
Either way, I think the Sky Pillar no longer as that one Mach Bike section... I think. Unless what I saw about the Delta episode is after said section.
Considering Granite Cave doesn't have one either they might have scraped that entire mechanic, which I won't miss at all.
Granite Cave doesn't have it? That's marvelous news!
... So the Mach Bike is only for sandy slopes now, that's a-ok for me.
Yeah and you only need very little speed to make it up.
Which the Acro Bike could have done. Oh well, I just want to unlock them both... Still a loooooooong way to go. 3 gyms down in OR, backtracking to the Trick House, and then the Granite Cave, before heading to Mt. Chimney.
AS is on Route 110, heading towards Mauville.
Yeah the Acro Bike still can't do it, and I still prefer the Mach bike.
well you are able to get both bikes now
Post Game.
Well yeah but still able to.
Also I managed to rush through the post game. It was quite fun
oh and uhhh... this is how you play the Delta episode, right?
(https://pbs.twimg.com/media/B3wfkySCcAEAslG.jpg)
Yes.
That's the one from emerald on my team vs the one in the Delta episode itself. Going to use both of them on a double battles team just because why not. They can be parallel universe buddies!
Do you get that certificate for getting the Gen 3 legendary to OR/AS?

If you haven't, you do now.
Yeah I noticed that.
Now I wonder why. Do Shiftry suckle Seedots? Why would a Nuzleaf have nipples if it wasn't to suckle young?
I noticed the nipples since the original and onward.

Now I wonder why. Do Shiftry suckle Seedots? Why would a Nuzleaf have nipples if it wasn't to suckle young?
I don't think so since he's a living tree.
So why have nipples? Nipples are for suckling. Unless they suckle sap... or the white stuff that comes out of milkweed.
Maybe they suckle milkweed milk.
Unless the nipples are weird knotholes. But, why such weird markings? To confuse predators?
THESE ARE IMPORTANT QUESTIONS D:
I'm more disturbed by Whismur's butthole.

So... I'm finally at Jagged Pass in OR, and my traded Sceptile is lv39.
FIRST TIME I AM GOING TO HAVE DISOBEYING POKEMON SINCE GOLD.
Finally beat Wallace and will be working on defeating the trainers on the other routes. My team is as follows:
"Inferno" - Blaziken Lv. 72 (Traded as an Egg from X)
"Tempest" - Swampert Lv. 67 (Starter)
"Swifty" - Swellow Lv. 65
"Divine" - Gardevoir Lv. 65 (Traded from X)
"Lady" - Latias Lv. 65
"Lancer" - Heracross Lv. 76 (From HG. An HM slave, pretty much)
I decided to turn off the Experience Share since everyone is at level late 40's to level 50.
Personally, I do not mind steamrolling over the Elite Four. :P
I just want some challenge.
Given half my OR team are EXP sponges (Lairon, Shelgon, Gardevoir), I need the Exp. Share on. Plus it helps when it comes to the legendaries.
My strategy is to steamroll everything, so Exp Share all the way! 8D
http://serebii.net/omegarubyalphasapphire/feebas.shtml (http://serebii.net/omegarubyalphasapphire/feebas.shtml)
Holyshi-
100% Feebas!!
Yeah I saw that too, pretty crazy.
But anyway I was fine with the EXP share in X and Y because the game was built around it and the levels scaled accordingly. However since they don't in this game since they pretty much kept the same levels from the orignal game I feel like I need to stop to keep some form of challenge.
Not scaled? That is a pity.
Still, seeing Deoxys scared me, so I will need the leverage. XD
I plan to turn it on again after the Elite 4.
Resetting for Latios on my Omega right now. Thinking it might just be easier to send over some synch mons, but eh, effort.

I managed to grab the 2 Vanilites inside. And exited to reset the puzzle. It's quite frustrating.

Huh. Looks like I was on the right track in getting the Vanilites, and resetting. Will do this again when I get back.
Not the best FAQ, they forgot the Big Nugget under the cushion after the last puzzle and they didn't know where to get the NeverMelt Ice for Regice to get Regigigas, but it should do.

I'm DexNav-chaining Ralts... this is not going to end well.
Jeez Primal Kyogre is the most frustrating Legendary fight I've had in a while if only because of Aqua ring and Body Slam.
EDIT: It used Struggle and killed itself.
I've been doing a bunch of the legendaries before I continue with the Delta Episode, and those guys gave me more trouble than Kyogre. Given Kyogre did take me a few tries, Lugia took me double that. Lugia was Struggling himself to death all the time. Kyogre never ran out of PP for me. I've also caught Heatran, Mesprit, Azelf, Cobalion, and Terrakion so far. Virizion will be tomorrow, and Uxie will be when I figure out what time it's available. Serebii said 8-9 PM, but I'm pretty sure I got one of the other Lake Trio mons at that time.
My problem is that Kyogre gets lucky with status inflictions.
EDIT: FINALLY GOT IT!
EDIT 2: DRIFLOON IN THE SKY, PROTECT THE CHILDREN!
I guess we all have been spoilt by plot advancement Pokemon.
Yeah, for Primal Kyogre specifically I recommend geting a Shedinja and leveling it up to 50 so it learns Heal Block and nothing Kyogre has can touch it.
If only the same can be said for P-Groudon... Although he does get Rest which can be exploited. Hopefully.
Either way, I'll be sticking to my combo of after 8pm Dusk Balls with Capture Power Lvl3.
Luckily on the second try I still have tons of Pokeballs.
I suddenly have an evil thought. Has anyone found out if P-Groudon/P-Kyogre can be Skill Swapped?
Because if the answer is yes... Truant. 8D
I'm sure it can. Also something hilarious, since my Gardevoir has Trace and Traced Primordial Sea she used the ability not Primal Kyogre.
Also the Sea Mauville is full of feels and nightmare fuel.
AND I FINALLY EVOLVED THAT WAILMER INTO WAILORD, GOD IT TOOK FOREVER!
Well, seems that Slaking can't learn Skill Swap.
... I thought it could.
Oh well.
EDIT: Man I thought the pictures of the Helix in that Apartment Complex in Rustboro was funny enough but President Stone has a picture of an Omanyte and gives you Pigeot's Mega Stone. It seems the majority of Rustboro worships Lord Helix. And apparently Brawley in the French version does too.
Meh, not a follower. :P
Hmm... I could try Skill Swap with a Color Change Kecleon... Then change P-Groudon into a Normal-Tyoe with False Swipe... Then paralyze... This could work...
Oh one more thing, you can fight Groudon and Kyogre again if you beat them after the Elite 4.
But it's still Primals right?
Just get it over and done with on the first encounter. XD
... Deoxys might be a different story.
I would assume so.

PFFT! Never thought to take what Steven said like this. XD
Honestly I would rather have that Nugget Dialog from the demo than do that, just no.
Or the guy in Mauville. "Hey kid! Close your eyes and hold out your hand!"
Got an Eon Ticket yesterday from one single ORAS Streetpass I got. Go figure.
Completed the Delta Episode, got a lot of the available legendaries. The Regi theme is so good. For now my focus is getting every mon available in the game. Just need to eventually find a good grind spot. Dunno if there's anything like Restaurant Le Wow in terms of exp grinding.
Don't know about that but you can rematch trainers.
I think that might be limited to once a day, not sure.
Oh no you can do it again when you leave the screen, I tested it when I was grinding my Aron.
Oh okay. That's not so bad. Still not as good as the restaurants in Kalos though. They were the best for grinding cause O Powers last for every fight.
There's also the food court in Mauville but I don't know how the levels are there, and they also have Double and Triple Battle formats.
Yeah, the levels are better there than the trainer refights. But it's once a day and unlike Kalos you don't heal inbetween fights.
I think there's also some daily battles at the Battle Resort too.

Oh god, Eevee why you so hard to catch!
The ball chuckings at Cresselia has begun.
EDIT: The ball chucking is over.
... Lucky you.
How many Mirage Streetpasses did you do to finally get Cresselia?
I may not have a Substitute Plush from Pokemon Amie... But I did get one for my Secret Base. >.>
OR's currently storming the Magma Hideout.
AS's stuck at Lilycove.
I just did it the first time today, everytime I go online I somehow get 29-30 for some odd reason.
...
...
*chucks PokeBalls at Sakura*
you get 29-30 when you go online cause the game treats online passerbys as streetpasses, at least as far as buzznav stuff, secret bases, and mirage islands go. cause not everyone is actually able to get streetpasses for those, ya know.
simple as that.
So accordingly to Serebii...
Just in case...
(http://www.serebii.net/omegarubyalphasapphire/feebas119.jpg)
Remember that bridge near the Weather Institute where you can fish under it to always catch Feebas from 8am to 8pm?
Now there's another spot.
(http://www.serebii.net/omegarubyalphasapphire/feebas119night.jpg)
It's a rock in the lake near the house when you can heal your Pokemon. If you fish there from 8pm to 8am, you can always catch Feebas.
... Wow. Feebas isn't what it was anymore. XD
I can still fondly remember when I fished up Feebas in my Emerald. And I was ecstatic back then.
I COULD just donate some from my Feebas Charity but nooobody seems to care these days.
I don't remember when I got Cresselia, but it didn't take too long. I just got all the legendaries in the game, after I imported the ones I had in Y. I almost have every wild Pokemon in AS, just waiting on Mirage spots for Crustle, Porygon, and Rufflet.
I could start my own Feebas Charity and breed the one I have in X, but all my X breeding is still focusing on getting Sleeper to squirt out a shiny Drowzee.
Until then... *wades through sea of Drowzee, gets on bike, and around and around and around Centrico Plaza we go!*
I'm just saying that Feebas used to be a hell of a challenge, just let an old man like me reminiscent the past...
I'm not dissing the new-Gen Feebas, it's a pretty neat non-frustration feature which benefits a lot of new players.
Then again, there's Chimecho. Who can still only be found on the summit of Mt. Pyre, with a 5% encounter rate. That can still Take Down. And still, no other Trainer up to that point used it.
Oh, I caught that Chimecho fellow on my first visit to mt pyre...

He craves that mineral.
Maybe he's low on Iron, Zinc, and Calcium?
Went back to the Seafloor Cavern to get Scald since I missed it and I also got Flash Cannon from a Mirage Island and Dragon Claw from Meteor Falls.
Flash Cannon is on a Mirage Island? Wellshi-
Yeah East of Shoal Cave, in fact there's others on other Mirage Islands.
Sucks for 100% completion... Needing Streetpasses... *shakes fist*
Aren't you able to go online?
Just saiyan.
Is it even confirmed to get the TM in that Mirage Island only, or could it be in other Mirage Islands? What if you are that unlucky and that island never appears!?
[/paranoia ]
Yeah it's that specific one. There's quite a few, one has Poison Jab another has Payback and yet another has Substitute and so on. As long as you can get online everyday you shouldn't have a problem.
technically it's only every 8 hours if memory serves
I got a Bunneary, I shall name it Bunny.
I should breed the one I got a while ago and name it Babs (if female) or Buster (if male). I'd go with Hugh Hefner, but I already have a Bunnelby named that.
Oh hell, I'll name it that anyway. Not as if I haven't accidentally reused names before, huh two Illumise named Twinkletoes and two Abra named Gadzooks?
There's probably an overlap for my names somewhere, but yes you must name a male one Hugh Hefner.
Both of my Gadzooks Abra went through Wonder Trade adoption, so I can now name a third Gadzooks! :D
But yes, Hugh Hefner the Bunneary. Who will grow up to be a sexy Lopunny. Hugh, you hottie.
Love Dem traps. 8D
OR is currently at Mossdeep, gym's still open, and I went ahead to finish the Shell Bell sidequest at Shoal Cave. My Hypnosis Gardevoir is currently lv69.5, the highest lvl in my team. 8D
Caught Regice in one Dusk Ball.
And hence why I love Dusk Balls.
With Dive under my belt in OR, I skipped ahead, and surfef to Sootopolis City. Now I know I will have a special wall sponge for P-Kyogre in my AS in M-Sableye.
Wall Sponges won't help you with Aqua Ring, seriously I hate Primal Kyogre. But I do recommend Sableye since he's part Ghost so you don't get Paralyzed from Body Slam.
Also caught all the Regis, the other 2 weren't as easy as Regice.
I'm not worried with Aqua Ring, that's easier to deal with than STAB Origin Pulse, and Ice Beam. As for P-Groudon, gonna Intimidate the hell out of it with my Salamence.
Also, reading through all the notes in Sea Mauville... It was really sad, but it made me even more curious on what REALLY happened.
[spoiler]Well Cozmo's Family obviously went through a Divorce.[/spoiler]
Also did you get the Spiritomb?
Spiritomb's post-game, at least it's after the Primal fiasco which I have not activated. I only activated the Seafloor Cavern light pillar.
[spoiler]That much was easily deduced. I'm more interested in why Raizoh Cozmo losing the Odd Keystone is a key point in one of the scattered noted. Unless they are saying that the terrible incident is Spiritomb wrecking havoc, threatening the Infinity Energy research. But it felt like the terrible incident is due to Wattson shutting New Mauville down... I guess I have to wait until I do the New Mauville side quest to find out.[/spoiler]
I found the Island of Dittos.

Also did you get the Spiritomb?
Totally read that as Spirit Bomb, at first.
A DBZ/Pokemon crossover... probably wouldn't work.
AAAAAAAAWWWWWW YEAH 8B

Steven, stop groping Latias.
Latios too.
He lieks dem shiny jet dragons.
He craves their smooth, supple skin. Such long necks.
That glistens like a Dawn Stone.
His own words, not mine. :P
He wants to ride them.
8D
Since you are getting AS...
... Darn, you ride Latios to get to Southern Island.
That gif is for OR games.

That Bulbasaur is clearly saying "You can stop now."
Maybe the leaves are fuzzy.
In event news, the final evolutions of the Unovan Starters will start soon in Japan, Serperior is the first on 28th December. They will all have their Hidden Abilities (Contrary Serperior, Reckless Emboar, Shell Armor Samurott).

That oddly reminds me of Steam Train's one-off of "Secret of the Magic Crystals". Brushing probably promotes evolution, I guess.

Still waiting for my Sheer Force Totodiles.
Anyway I swear those Lake Guardians are some of the hardest Legendaries to catch for me sometimes. I dread Uxie.
Seems appropriate a time as any to post this:

"Do I look like a [tornado fang]ing Meloetta to you. I am knowledge, [dark hold]. No wonder you screw [parasitic bomb] up so much."
"Shut up, [dark hold]."
"[dark hold]."
I got Regigigas now I just need Lugia, and to get the other Lake Guardians and Muskedeers.
I JUST NOW noticed the little tail and freckles.
Cute. :3
*tweaks little tail*
Lugia only took 3 Dive Balls, now I have to wait for 8:00.
And Groudon has been released.
... Time to take advantage of the searing heat to fight all the Swimmers and Fishermans! 8D
... FISHED UP A SHINY WAILMER D:
Fuzzy, fuzzy Minccino.
I think I'll call her fluffy.
Not fluffy enough to die from. :P
So after catching P-Groudon in ONE Dusk Ball, after 6 Intimidates, and one sacrificial Swampert... And Capture lvl3... 8D
Next up... Cresselia! *sees Crescent Isle when Soaring*
And then I saw Nameless Cavern, and went to try to catch Mesprit instead. Stupid Mesprit. YOU ARE IN A CAVE! AND CAPTURE LVL3! STAY IN THE [tornado fang]ing DUSK BALL!! *still trying for a neutral*
Seriously what is up with those Lake Guardians!
Mesprit is toying with my emotions.
...
...
...
OH
Get into an argument about it being the shittiest muse.
Nah, that's more for Uxie. If it's worse than capturing Mesprit.
Hench why I dread it so.
Uxie, you are the shittiest muse, you [dark hold].
Mesprit toys with our emotions, Uxie is a shitty muse, and Azelf's strong will to stay free will be a pain.
God, the Lake Guardians are [parasitic bomb].
Quote from: Dr. Wily II on December 22, 2014, 03:35:54 AMSo after catching P-Groudon in ONE Dusk Ball
Yeah yeah, I GET IT OKAY?! :P
I think the credits of my game can be sumed up as this. Altaria and Dusknoir unfortunately didn't contribute much. Though Dusknoir did her share at the Elite 4, not Altaria unfortunately.
... I have never felt so much RAGE at trying to catch a legendary. Mesprit shall forever be painted in infamy. :W
I'm giving up on Mesprit, and will go catch Cresselia instead. >_>
Groudon... o//////o
Finally caught, while Lonely and not synched Adamant, has a 31/31/31/x/x/0~2 build. Can't complain about that.
Already caught Cresselia, Virizion, Uxie and Azelf yesterday.
Then caught Terrakion earlier today. Only left Cobalion... And she-who-shall-not-be-named. :W
So I got Deoxys in the Master Ball, and named it Cthulhlu.
Cthulhu*
:P
I'm sure I spelt it right on the naming screen even though I didn't here.
Oh yea, was supposed to update on Uxie.
... He went down to one Dusk Ball due to Critical Capture. So... He's not a shitty muse after all.
Jumped to AS for a bit... And I encountered a Horde of Wingulls at Route 118. One of them is a Shiny. D:
Oh that sucks.
Caught the Wingull though, so now I have shinies in both games, not including the event Beldum.
That's good.
And the other?
Shiny Wailmer.
Aaaaaaa jealous
Yeah he can unlock the Regis with a shiny Wailord.
Haha, I'm keeping them as they are. The only exception is the shiny Ralts I hatched back in X.
... I may try another shiny Ralts after all is done in OR...
If you get a Male evolve him into Gallade.
No way. Black dress Gardevoir all the way! 8D
Don't you mean Trapevoir? 8D
But he can match black dress Gardevoir with his black cape. HE CAN BE ZORRO...SORTA!

Black dress Trapevoir still sounds more... Appealing. 8D
I just don't get why you would want the same Pokemon when you have the chance to have another.
Just because. 8D
If I do get another shiny male Ralts, I will take you on your offer.
IF.
Well yeah of course, you can't make it a Gallade with a Female.
If only...
I want a genderbent Gallade... D:
You can...
WITH ART!
I have witnessed the birth of Mr. Bonding.
Forever scarred... Forever... Bonding.
Yeah all the dudes just went into him one at at a time, and each time he made a different noise.
... Wow, that's some crap past the radar.
...
*Hides Pokemon from Mr. Bonding.*
D:
Wait.
Does that mean by using the O-Powers, we all are turning into Mr. Bondings!? D:
No they have to meld with us.
His direct translation name is just so much worse.
Old Man Bonding.
Dirty Old Man Bonding.
D:
Caught Cobalion, and Lord Voldemort. Not bothering to catch Ho-Oh, or the Regis yet, need to plot. And then I met Hypno at Route 121. D:
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that they're DexNav native to Hoenn now.
Did you catch it?
They will only appear after you catch/defeat the Primals at Cave of Origin, and you need to sneak up on them.
He's Rash, even after being Forewarn'd.
Whatcha name him?
Hypno.
Brilliant, isn't it. 8D
I named my Female Hypnos.
Have fun with your dream-eating babies! 8D
I think I found all the Mega Stones, the only ones left are the ones for Lucario, Garchomp and Metagross that I can get from Steven.
583 flags... And counting...

583 flags... And counting...
Man you're diligent. I think I have 114 or something.
Well darn it.
I was Streetpass'd with a troll Secret Base. The only way to grab the flag is to set the owner as a Secret Pal. However, I'm very happy with my current 5... Darn it... One less flag to collect. :W
Yeah I say not worth it to do that, especially since they regenerate each day. But seriously [tornado fang] those assholes.
I don't go online often, so all my Streetpass are around my workplace area. So this troll base might linger for a while unless I'm Streetpass'd another base in that location.
So now, from a daily 30, to a 29. ._.
Well if he wasn't an ass you could have deleted him.
They should give us an option to delete bases instead of just favorites. XD
Well, since this base can't be favourite'd either, due to cannot access the base PC, it will poof. Eventually.
Yeah hopefully, seriously I wish there was a way to restrict that sort of thing.
... Wow.
I was Streetpass'd ANOTHER troll base.
2 troll bases in one day.
... That's it. *goes online*
Oh boy... I hit the Unown cave.
TIME TO CATCH THEM ALL
I never bothered with Unown collecting, especially since they are kind of worthless.
*OCDs*
9/28 caught.
Haha, managed to catch all 28 way before the start of a new day.
And the 2 troll bases are still there, so gonna go online in a while to hopefully rotate them out.
ISLAND OF DITTOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
*squishes them all*
Don't squish! D:

Squish.

>Finds a Mirage Cave with TM95 Snarl
>Needs both Arco and Mach bikes at the same time to access
>mfw
Seriously, TMs in Mirage Spots? And one that needs BOTH bikes, when one might not have both at the same time!?
Such a [tornado fang]ing scrappy mechanic.
You should have seen my rage about needing both bikes for Energy Ball in the Safari Zone.
SERIOUSLY I WOULD HAVE LIKED TO HAVE ENERGY BALL BEFORE AFTER THE DELTA EPISODE SO MY SCEPTILE WASN'T STUCK WITH THE INFERIOR LEAF BLADE!
If I knew that would happen I would have delayed the evolution of Treeko until I got it. -AC
At least the TM for Energy Ball... IS ALWAYS THERE :W
SNARL WOULD DISAPPEAR TOMORROW :W
Well it's better than Snarl, I mean sure it lowers Special Attack but 55 power isn't exactly to write home about, then again that is the modus operendi of Dark Types. For next Gen I would like some more powerful Dark Type attacks along with more Physical Fire and Fairy type attacks, especially ones that can make Flareon more viable.
It's not about the move...
IT'S ALL ABOUT COLLECTING THEM ALL :W
WELL AT LEAST IT'S NOT THE EON TICKET!
THAT IS A WHOLE DIFFERENT STORY
For those of you in North America the Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire Demo is now available in the eShop for those who haven't gotten it already and want a free Glalie and extra Glalieite.

Well Ahrazyl wanted to trade and offered me a Surskit, I think she just started the game. I gave her a Ralts in return.

I'm surprised Hercule is such a popularity figure in Hoenn. Also it looks there's a change of plans of which version of the Gen 3 remakes I'm getting as of late; I'm getting Alpha Sapphire since my older brother got Omega Ruby from a friend of his as a Christmas gift. :P
Hercule works too... But I was actually reading it in the voice(s) of the Woodland Critters from South Park.
Got the Ditto Island agqin so I'm Ditto hunting again, also got Snarl and Substitute.
SNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARL :W
Caught P-Kyogre in my AS, wasn't as painful as I thought it would be.
So, Steven has a list of his favorite rocks. Dude gets his rocks off on rocks.
*brick'd*
Tackling the Elite 4 in my OR.
OR main story cleared, and started Delta Episode.
Paused to get the final O-Power...

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-oh
No black screen. *sighs in relief*[/spoiler]
TRIPLE POST
Delta Episode completed in OR.

Caught Rayquaza in one Dusk Ball. Neutral nature.
Caught Deoxys in one Dusk Ball. ALSO neutral nature.
I'm so happy, I want to cry. ;~;[/spoiler]
You all know what I'm up to.
My neck. In Drowzee.

It's dangerous to go alone! Take this!
*Gives you a Big Box o' Drowzee*
Sort of off-topic, but within an hour of playing SoulSilver, I found and caught a shiny Pidgey out of the blue. Well at least I'm using a Flying-type other than Hoothoot this time around...
inb4 I get stuff into a Bonnie suit.
-EDIT-
It has a Mega-Evolution? Now I'm really looking forward to sending this into Alpha Sapphire.
*Gives you a Big Box o' Drowzee as a prize*
Caught all available Legendaries in OR, sans Giratina, Kyurem and Landorus.
Both OR and AS has the Garchompite, only left Lucarionite to collect.
Time... To move AS past Victory Road...
Congratulations.
HAVE A BOX OF DROWZEE
YES
MORE BP TO RAKE UP IN POKEBANK
Got Poison Jab and Gyro Ball from the Mirage Spots.
Only left Snarl in OR to collect... AAAAAAAAAAAAAH
Oh man... My AS team had a time with the Elite 4 and Steven.
... I have nothing for Dragons, haha.
*Loads a box of Drowzee with Dazzling Gleam*
Now you do!
*drowning*
I taught Dazzling Gleam to my Sableye in the end. XD
AS has reached the climax of the Delta Episode... Currently standing at the base of the final ladder in Sky Pillar. Currently waiting for night to fall... So that I can abuse my Dusk Balls. >_>
*Dumps a box of Drowzee on your head.*
My AS has cleared the main game (Yea, completing Delta Episode is considered part of the main game), and will get the twin bikes soon.
[spoiler]Rayquaza took 1 Dusk Ball, Deoxys took 4. I must stress my utter LOVE for Dusk Balls. THANK YOU GEN4!![/spoiler]
OR... Is stuck until I plan for contests, haha.
Ringman is on his way to Shalour City and I'm still hatching Drowzee. Onto the third box. I did send three over Wonder Trade and got a Zigzagoon, a Poochyena, and a much-desired Baltoy. I also gave one to Ringman for some fodder, so now he has a male Insomnia Drowzee named Golden Boy with a good SpAtt IV.
Then, I went and caught some extra Munna for WonderTrade and GTS. Then, I picked up an Egg, won more PP Ups in the Lotto, and picked up more Eggs.
Ringman used the Daycare for the first time. He bred a Litleo with a Psyduck.
Funny the lion cub didn't eat the duck, haha.
He was surprised that he got an egg from them. He's not entirely aware of egg groups, yet. I told him the easiest way to know who can mate with who is by what the Breeder says: If they like each other or hate each other, they'll screw. If they won't touch each other, no egg for you.
Breeder: *Snatches egg away*
I decided to use my only Moon Stone and evolve one of my Munna.
Good god.
The jiggle physics of the dream mist is not doing it any favors.
D:
You have unleashed it into your game world. D:
THE UNBORN FETUS
I then put it in Amie.
Just...
Ugh. D:
This is what Fennel keeps in a formaldehyde jar on a shelf in her lab. D:
She likes fetuses. D:
And high on Dream Mist. D:
The way it moves. D:
It's so... fetal... And the jiggle physics are just wrong. The dream mist should be a mist, NOT A JELLO-FILLED PLACENTA ATTACHED TO THE HEAD D:
PETA... PETAAAAAAAAAAA D:
No, you can't pet the dream mist. Yes, I tried that. Musharna doesn't care if you touch it. It doesn't even register. Not even a "swoosh" sound as if you're going through it; no it acts like it's simply not there.
As it jiggles and pulsates.
Ugh. D:
It shouldn't be the Malamar Mythos... It should be the Musharna Mythos... D:
That stillborn Drowzee fetus will haunt my dreams! D:
TM95 YOU ARE FINALLY MINE IN OR!!

The sooner I get a shiny, the sooner Sleeper gets out of the daycare, and the sooner I can work on some better breeding projects and get some egg moves.
And the sooner I can start on AS, finally.
When I finally do get that shiny, which will no doubt have crap stats and the wrong Ability because my luck runs like that, what will I name it?
Musharna.
... 8D
NO. B(
My Musharna is named Carl Jung.
Maybe I'll call the shiny baby Prof. Hypno, even while it's a Drowzee, and even if it's female.
*imagines Prof in pink*
... HMMMM
GENDER-BENT PINK PROF
It's perfect! :V
He... I mean she would have a much bigger neck fluff...
... SO MUCH FLUFFY
I'd name it Yendy, but then I'd have three Pokemon named Yendy, two of them Hypno.
Would the real Slim Yendy please stand up?
That would be the current trainee Hypno who did not come from Lavinnia's horribly-inbred family shrub with the interlocking branches.
Or maybe it's the Audino I caught a while ago.
AS hordes strike again.
This time, a shiny Oddish in a horde. >.>

But yeah, ain't touching the game for a few days, at least.
Hehe.
To be honest, I doubt you'll reach my levels of 1000+ eggs for that shiny Ralts.
Still, rest sounds good either way.
Let's see... three Boxes at thirty Pokemon per box, plus starting the fourth box and I'm up to 91 Drowzee babies.
See?
You can do it!

My niece heard me talk to my Pokemon, and so did Ringman. But, he now talks to his Chesnaught. He is one of us.

Well not like that, I mean I'll say good job if they do something good in battle and feel really bad when they faint and stuff like that. I'm talking about the way the wife did that while she was cuddling her husband, that's what I find creepy.
When I play with mine, I greet them and tell them they did good in battle. If they had a bad battle, I'll tell them that it's okay and that they did their best and sometimes bad battles happen.
Ringman has small talk with his Chesnaught, far as I know.
I loved talking to my Zoroark because of that funny doggy smile he'd make. XD
My Pokemon don't DARE do badly in battle!!!!! B(
I'm only kidding. I root them on like a good trainer should. Haha, you should've seen me in the PAX Pokemon League, which I'm really looking forward to doing again. That was a lot of fun.
Yeah that's what I would do.
Also imaging PB baby talking with Pyre Heart since I remember him doing that when he was talking about how he stole Lou's credit card to satisfy his gambling addiction.
I cheer mine on in battle as well. Particularly when I'm using Nasty Plotting sweepers and they have to take some hits.

I really do need to write more GoRPMs
That you do, and someday I really need to write those stories to supplement the characters of Sakura, Zeta, Borock-bot and other characters. At least Mana-Verse lets me explore the powers Sakura's bloodline has and the benefits of knowing how they work since her father is alive. With Wilypocaylse I'll write how those powers freak her out since she doesn't know what they are and uses them unintentionally.
My Pokemon have more personality than my Trainer, who has about as much personality as a saltine cracker. >.>
And Ringman's preferred Amie game? Tile Puzzle. Berry Picker and Head-It bore him, but he likes Tile Puzzle, as it's simple and he can play a ton of it and get decent Puffs. I told him a few of my scores, and he plans to work toward some of them.
This may sound a bit silly, but I only just started playing Omega Ruby, even though I bought it at launch. Can't help it. Gen III has always been my least favorite. Still, I like the sneak mechanic to find special Pokemon and I'm looking forward to making a secret base.
Eh, don't feel too bad. I only intend to start AS for the shiny Beldum, and then afterward I'm getting back to my shiny breeding in X. I don't plan to start officially playing AS until I get that shiny.
In a really strange way, even though ORAS has new features, it feels a little bit like a downgrade from XY. It's not just the lack of trainer customization. It's the general feeling of the game. I know it's a remake, but it might be a little too faithful to the original game. The graphics are nice, but it has that old Pokemon feeling to it. Compared to the regions and stories from the past few entries, ORAS feels primitive and a bit boring. Am I alone in this?

I know, which is why I plan to grab it before then. But in terms of putting in some actual gameplay, I don't plan to really start until I finish that shiny breeding.

Eh, it's not great. I literally just bought it because of Courtney and because everyone else is playing it. I'm even leaving my proper team on X because I don't care less about the new megas.

I volunteered to watch my niece and nephew at karate while my sis-in-law took the other nephew to basketball practice. So, I played Pokemon and got five more eggs.
Haven't hatched them, yet, but I got five more.
Waiting.
There had better be a shiny in one of them.
Speaking of character redesigns, anyone else used to think that Brendan's hat was hair? I did. I thought he just wore a headband for years until ORAS came out.
At first I thought it was hair, but then around the time Emerald came out and a few years later when I read Pokemone Special I realized it was just the goofiest hat ever.
Early official art didn't help either.
Kinda sad too because I used to dig his white hair.
He would have been one hell of bishonen, but he doesn't look too bad without the hat either. Why did they make such a dumb hat?

Looks like hair.

Still looks a bit like hair.

Oh... Dat's not hair, though.
The thing with the Emerald one is that it's actually a bit clearer it's not hair because you can see a bit of black hair close to his ear and the head band is more defined as part of a hat.
However what I don't understand is the shorts over pants in Emerald, why?!

Maybe it was a fad in Japan at the time? I dunno, I kinda prefer the Emerald design over the others. The shorts over the pants bit is a bit weird, but I just come to expect that the character design for Pokemon is going to be weird.
I agree I like the Emerald design the best, but the pants and shorts thing is beyond weird to me. It's in WTF territory there.
What's really weird is ORAS Brendan's shoe situation. They're doofy clown shoes and he isn't wearing any socks. That's pretty weird too.
Eh that's not too weird, I assume that they are just poorly drawn athletic shoes and he just didn't want get his socks wet, I'm sure the no socks thing is actually kind of common place in some places. I think I've seen it myself sometimes since I live in Cali.
Besides, his shoes aren't nearly as clown like as Sora's.

I became the Fare Princess in my OR. God was I lucky to clear all the trainers in one turn.

I remember Regigigas being Lv. 1. Whooooo gives a [parasitic bomb].
That Regigigas is always handicapped. 8U
Yeah he's kind of [parasitic bomb].
Man, I think one of the biggest reasons I'm more attached to X over OR is the fact that I basically have my dream team (IE the team I always wanted) in X and I'm very reluctant to give that up.
Who's in your dream team?
Exactly who I have now. Milotic, Garchomp, Typhlosion, Venusaur, Gardevoir, and Sylveon.
Mmm... Gardevoir... Ahem.
Yeah, I'm the same way. All my buddies are on X and I want to play with them. Not real excited to give up my babies.
*pets Mewtwo and feeds him Puffs*
Although setting aside Jeanne d'Arc (Grovyle) and Chariot (Taillow), the rest of my team in OR is really gaining my affection. (Hlin the Mightyena, Beowulf the Torkoal, Scarlet the Pikachu, and Uzume the Marill).
I take it that Scarlet is Pop Star Pikachu?
Madokachu
I am truly sorry for my insolence!
Forgive me, for I have sinned!

Once you reached the bottom of Route 120...

I'm not particularly concerned with stats after I clear the game. After that I'm probably just gonna use it to fill my X Pokedex.
Just saiyan.
MADOKACHU WILL MAKE ALL REPENT IN THE LIGHT OF HER DRAINING KISS
I'm almost done with my Central Kalos Dex. Just need to evolve a couple and make some babies.
The babies will have to wait because Sleeper still needs to squirt out that shiny! 8(
Not sure who knows already (too lazy to read back [tornado fang] you), but a friend just told me the event code POKEMON497 gives you Serperior with the HA Contrary.
That works for European/Australian games... Unless there's an update for US games too.
EDIT: And it does. Time to grab it when I get back.
Just finally renewed my Pokebank subscription. Last time I used it was during the free month. Finally realized after three boxes of eevees in X I should use it.
Also moved event Serperior, shiny Beldum, and my old Nuzleaf from OR to X.
I'm on four boxes of Drowzees, so I should start using my Bank again.

Nope. Mostly Forewarn with some Insomnia mixed in (Sleeper is a Forewarn). Inner Focus for a Drowzee is kind of... meh, anyway. Insomnia is the ability you want for them.
Oh, it's just for collection's sake. I'm after an Insomnia anyway... Hypno is the only non-Mega, non-Maison poke I have on my breeding list right now :P
I have a bunch of Insomnia. Specific Nature? I can't guarantee any decent stats, as Sleeper is terrible. I have him with one of my decent Imposter Ditto right now.
Okay I think I finished the first recommended Pokemon team list for my mom based on if she chooses Chespin.
Chespin, Quilladin, Chestnaught
Squirtle, Wartortle, Blastoise
Aerodactyl
Ralts, Kirlia, Gardevoir
Houndour, Houndoom
Gastley, Haunter, Gengar
Next I'll work on Fennekin.
That reminds me to raise up Tindalos the Houndour and to rename my female and raise her.
Okay I think this would be a good team based off Fennekin
Fennekin, Braixen, Delphox
Bulbasaur, Ivysaur, Venusaur
Flabebe, Floette, Florges
Aerodactyl
Riolu, Lucario
Lapras
No love for Quacklin' the Farfetch'd? Ringman and I love him. He's been an asset on both our story mode teams.
Well I'll tell her to use it for the first gym, but these are final team builds of suggested Pokemon based on type synergy. Not to mention these are Pokemon she can easily find on the field or given to her, well except Haunter but she really needs that for Gym 6 based on the Team build. Just finished with Froakie.
Froakie, Frogadier, Greninja
Charmander, Charmeleon, Charizard
Ralts, Kirlia, Gardevoir
Ferroseed, Ferrothorn
Mienfoo, Mienshao
EDIT: Hang on need a different Pokemon for the 6th spot.
EDIT 2: Think I'll go with Pikachu and Raichu.
EDIT 3: Actually you know what I'll go with Jolteon instead. Shadow Ball bitches!
PIN MISSILE
And your mom should share her friend code.
I'll consider it when she gets it, I need to explain that to her and get her permission.
What made your mum want to get a 3DS, and X/Y? It's pretty sudden.
EDIT: Nevermind, answer found.

Jar Jar would be that annoying Diggersby that Qui-Gon-Zinnia encountered. He was banished from a Diggersby colony for being clumsy.
When Brendon-Wan-Kenobi met up with Zinnia after the brief battle, he looked annoyingly at Jar Jar, knowing that they had just picked up another pathetic lifeform.

Well, those Natures aren't helpful at all, so I'd replace them with better ones, and you'd want at least 3 good IVs, since you're a beginner, so we'll go easy.

It's that whole maximizing pokemon's hidden values thing that kinda turned me off fighting anyone ever again. Seems really over complicated, I just want to use pokemanz I like!. :'(
I only do EV training because I find it easy and I've trained lots of Pokemon I've been interested in that I really couldn't use due to availability, like Houndooms and Weaviles. However Perfect 6 IV breeding, except getting Max Speed because Speed can mean the difference between life and death, I find to be a waste of time.
I unfortunately find amie to be lacking because I want more to be done with it, though it was neat to find out Mienfoos have wolverine claws if you [acid burst] it off. I also find the lack of an option menu to get rid of unwanted Pokepuffs really annoying.
I dump unwanted Puffs into the room screen, or feed them to baby Pokemon and newbies that I'm starting on.
Or, I give them to Mewtwo. He's a garbage disposal.
Yeah I just wish there was a more efficient way.
I would love to StreetPass Puffs. Send Puffs to Ringman.
I've yet to StreetPass him, and this weekend I'll be busy, so I can't.

I HAVE A POKEMON BANK QUESTION
... I might be paranoid, but I'd rather ask now.
So... My Pokemon Bank pass is going to expire in 16 days. I recall during the trial period, when it was going to expire, a prompt asked if you wanted to purchase a one-year pass. But I can't recall WHEN the prompt asked. I also believed there was an option on the main Bank menu to purchase said pass.
So... I checked my balance, and I do have enough to pay for the one-year pass. I checked the main menu, no option to purchase. Do I wait for the pass to expire before I can purchase a new pass? Or is it that the prompt will ask when it drops below 7 days?
... Anyone can enlighten me? Anyone renewed?
I just checked right now. My pass will expire in 14 days and I just got a prompt to renew it. I think in a couple days you'll get the prompt.
*renews*
Ah.
Thank you very much! :cookie:
That puts my mind at ease... Also HA Johto starters. 8U

Good to see it doesn't skimp you on any time you had left. Does that mean if I renewed my pass now I'd get like two years? Because I mean stacking that [parasitic bomb] doesn't sound bad.
There does not seem to be a way to purchase the pass earlier...

Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha - Eon Ticket
For those of you in North America who have yet to obtain an Eon Ticket, a new method is coming up. From February 27th to March 2nd, you'll be able to get a serial code on the official site to get the Eon Ticket in your game. This allows you to get Latias in Pokémon Omega Ruby or Latios in Pokémon Alpha Sapphire. We'll post the code and/or method as soon as it comes.
good thing i already got one via streetpass haha
Street Passes here are as rare as a Master Ball. Ain't seeing another one ever again.
I was lucky myself too. They are really making an effort to make sure that everyone gets an Eon Ticket.
Perks of being a college student. People at my uni play Pokemon more than it's target audience.
I took my 3DS to Shippensburg University and walked around campus with it on for the express purpose of getting Street Passes, and I played it while at the Cub, and I still didn't get any!
I only got one Street Pass and it was in Hanover.
Well, the HA Johto starters event via Pokemon Bank has started, I just received them.
Before you access them via Pokemon Bank, make sure that you have received any outstanding gifts via Pokemon Link.

I just got my Johto starters. Need to get them rated. As with all my promo Pokemon, they're probably crappy.
Technically, Gift event Pokemon comes with 3 max IVs, iirc.

My Mystery Gift Pokemon only have one good IV. DeLorean the Celebi has three max IVs (HP, Attack, and Defense and can't be beat). Here's what my Johto starters have:
Blazin'Sauce the Typhlosion: Above average potential, fantastic stats, best stat is Attack.
Tick-Tock the Feraligatr: Decent all around, fantastic stats, best stat is SpAtt.
Littlefoot the Meganium: Above average potential, fantastic stats, best stat is SpAtt.
What about Natures?
Blazin'Sauce is Relaxed, Tick-Tock is Calm, and Littlefoot is Quiet.
Oh... I guess the max 3 IVs only apply to legendaries...
I have a Naughty Meganium, a neutral Typhlosion, and a Timid Feraligatr.
... A FREAKING TIMID FERALIGATR :W
The only redeeming factor is that I believe he has max IV for attack (Likes to thrash about).
Yeah that's max Attack.
Oh I know, I just meant I needed to check with the Judge to confirm. :P
Trying to get a Destiny Knot in my OR, and then trade over an Adamant Ditto from my X, to get the true bruiser out of the Gatr.
... Or I just trade the Knot over too...
My Feraligatr is often lost in thought.
Calm + often lost in thought + Tick-Tock = He's obviously some kind of Scholar aspiring to become a Time Wizard.
I figured that he was dreaming about when he ate Captain Hook's hand and how he'll find the rest of that pirate.
He wants to age himself into a Thousand Year Old Feraligatr.

By the way, I'm still hatching eggs. Still no shiny.
BELIEVE IN THE BONDS OF THE EGGS
I think I'm up to nine boxes. I've since lost track since trading a box worth and depositing four or five boxes in the Bank.
Don't worry.
Just look at my experience!
YOU WILL GET YOUR PINK BABY
Making my way to Box Ten. In the meantime, I've been training Tequila, my incubator. He's a warm, fuzzy, squeaky ball of fluff.

They have revealed the serial code for the ORAS Eon Ticket distribution, valid until March 2nd 2015. So hurry.
2015LATIOSLATIAS
If you have previously received the Eon Ticket via StreetPass, or via other Mystery Gift distributions, the code won't work.
Transferred five more boxes of Drowzee to the Bank, hatched almost two more boxes. No shiny yet.
Though, I did hatch a 3 IV Drowzee, so take your victories where you can get them, I guess.
I'm putting off Victory Road in OR. It's a pain.
But that theme! D:
Haven't had much time for gaming in general, unfortunately.
Noooooooooooooooooooo *hugs Nep Nep*
Thank you. I feel loved and appreciated.
Everyone needs to be loved! *gives out hugs*

Argh... Pokemon Bank is taking a bit longer than usual to login, save and update...
... I wonder if this has anything to do with the Shuffle update...
I'm still hatching eggs. Round Three, Box Five. After this box is filled, I'll transfer another five to the Bank and start again.
QuickEdit: Onto Round Four. I WILL GET MY PINK BAKU BABU :W
Well XYventures finally updated, Viola seems to have been possessed and the Honedges just ripped the clothes off the Protagonists. Perfectly normal for this comic to be honest, though I really don't know why Xavier decided to poke his Honedge in the eye.....

Finally!
... If only this happened in-game... Flare-controlled gym leaders.
I'M STILL HATCHING EGGS
EEEEEEEEGGGGGGGGSSSSSSS :W
*has a sunny-side Drowzee* Hmm.
Though I do not have OR/AS, the demo hooked me enough that I got back into X. Finally bred a new Dragonite (Special attacker), and...then I hacked-disguised-as-legit a few other breedable team members (Steelix, Magnezone, Rotom, Kangaskahn) and a bunch of 6-IV Ditto for future use, also holding the Y-exclusive Mega Stones. God bless QR code bugs.
So now I'm ripping up Doubles in the Battle Maison, probably gonna stick to TM rewards (note to self: Absorb Bulb does not stack with Water Absorb as an Ability).

So looking at the first page of this again I just noticed something, that camera Viola is holding has an Orange Lense.
If this is anything like the previous comic, where Plasma inserted Objects into the Pokemon's mind via the Dream World to get them to attack the Gym Leader cities ranging from News Papers to Panties, then I bet that camera is the source of her possession. Most likely made by Lysandre's scientists too.
Also wondering what cosplay the Protags will end up in, I'm betting Kill La Kill for this one.

Okay, I've had Round sitting in my bag for a while, and I was considering teaching it to someone, because I like the idea of a Pokemon gang-beating.
For Round to be used by multiples, do multiple party members need to know it, too? Or is it dependent on how many Pokemon are in your team, regardless of how many actually know it?
I think in order for it to work that way it has to be in a Double or Triple Battle and the Pokemon that are out and use the move at the same time power it up.
It was one of those gimmick moves they added in Gen 5 like the Elemental Pledge moves for Double and Triple Battles so I don't recommend it.
Yes, Round is a Double/Triple gimmick. You need to teach the move and select it with multiple 'mans in a single turn, and within that turn, its power doubles for every use (1st is 60, 2nd is 120, 3rd is 240).
Well, it took a while, but I finally managed to track down a Mild Mewtwo over GTS. And I swear this isn't intentional, but my ideal battle strategy for him is turning out to involve partnering with Gardevoire.
'course, in the highly unlikely event that anyone has a MODEST Mewtwo to part with, that'd work even better, and I'd have a Deoxys in it for them. Somehow I wound up with two of them...
Oh and speaking of a Pokemon Gang Beating don't teach any Pokemon Beat Up, the max power is just 60.
So Round is kinda crap. I'll set a few Pokemon aside so I can exploit it at Le Wow or someplace, but otherwise just let the TM rot.
I was really hoping for a six-mon gang beating, too... :(
And I should get back to my shiny breeding. Been taking a break from it for a while.

My Houndoom knows it and I keep it around for weaker opponents, but I planned to replace it eventually. She's barely mid-level anyway.
Technically Beat Up is the 6 Pokemon Gang up move, but as I said it's really weak.
Plenty fine for battles that would otherwise be a complete curb-stomp due to a massive level advantage. XD
Yeah pretty much.

GAAAAAANNNNNNNNNG BEEEEAAAAAAAT :W
Nah, I haven't yet decided on a final moveset for my Houndoom, so her moves are subject to change.
Personally I like Dark Pulse, Flamethrower and Sludge Bomb with either Nasty Plot or Taunt.
Mine's Naive. She'll most likely end up being a sweeper, so I'd like to play with moves that are good for sweepers. Nasty Plot I've been relegating to slower Pokemon, such as my Hypno who are mostly Nasty Plotting sweepers (they have the bulk to stick around while they plot). I don't think my Houndoom has enough bulk to be a Nasty Plotter.
Hmm yeah and Taunt probably wouldn't be too good for you either. Let me take a look real quick and I'll get back to you.

Yeah the only filler move I can think about for your Houndoom is Torment or Substitute.
Anybody have a member of the Ralts line with their Hidden Ability (preferably female)? I only have one Fairy safari and that was a bust. Telepathy would give my team a bit of flexability.
Checked my PC, checked my two Fairy Safaris, and checked the Bank. No HA Ralts. Sorry. :(

If you still looking for one, I can offer.
So uh the anime gave Ash his Goodra, Ash somehow raised his Goomy to level 50 in 11 episodes and apparently unlike the Games it can just use Rain Dance to trigger the evolution. The heck.

Yea, I am pretty proud of my sword. Aegislash is meant for Singles, but he seems to do fine in doubles though. Though to be honest, I felt that you were still building your pokemon team. Some of your Pokemon like your Mega Evolved one didn't know certain moves that I know he should be taught, like Fake-Out. Still, my goal has been completed with Pokemon other than my my favorite Pokemon team.
Well, I was deliberately trying something different for Mega Kangaskahn. I can see where lacking Fake Out makes her a lot less of a team player, though (in Singles, I wouldn't think anything of it) Honestly, my Mega is something I never really settled on.
And thanks a million for that Sableye. I have...plans. :V :cookie:
Still want that Telepathy Ralts, Hypershell?
ううわ。。。
I totally did not see that coming. If I'd known I'd be facing legendaries, I would have at least used my main team.
I want a rematch, but I can use one legendary! >0<

I regret giving you the Sableye. I forgot what Prankster did...
If it makes you feel any better, I was just about to breed Prankster Murkrow before the trade anyway. 'course, Murkrow can't learn Will-O-Wisp.
Flagship uber, just like old times. 'cept now I have a way to use the one I actually want in Doubles, so no more Palkia. 8) And yeah, that Zapdos came from GTS... Not that he did much, I just needed the switch to shake off Dragonite's confusion.

Nah I'll just save the link and check every once in a while. Oh and I like that she still randomly changes the art style even if this one is more consistent.
Well, hatched five more boxes in Round Three. Time to transfer them to the Bank and start Round Four.
And watch the BP roll in...
I WILL GET MY PINK BABY :W
And that is probably why I am not allowed to play with Mewtwo and Aegislash was classified as an Uber Pokemon by Smogon.
Edit: God, to be honest, now I feel bad. Though I wonder if the battle would have gone differently if i used my Lucario instead of the Mewtwo.
'maru, let me tell you something, you need play online for about five minutes before somebody bitches about something you're doing. There are ENTIRELY too many ways to completely screw your opponent in Gen VI to avoid them all, just pick a tactic that you enjoy and run with it.
But yeah, you are damn evil with that Aegislash.
I suppose if I wanted to be more evil myself, I could come up with a more annoyance-based opening move. But I get tired of Breeding/Super Training all those alts... We'll see.
You are completely right. Going online in rating is asking to face off a flincher team, swift swim, Fake out Khangastan and other things that I tire. My team is made up of favorites in pokemon. Sure, I made counters against those types of team, like my Lucario is a mega-khangastan counter, my Cloyster against other charizards, dragons, or the accursed Talonflame, my dragonite is actually for against Fairies; little things like that.
Still they are the pokemon that are actually the special to me, most off them from gen I when I first started playing.
Hey, that's why Steelix and Dragonite always have a spot on my team.
I just wish they hadn't skipped the tutors in X/Y. I still haven't picked up OR/AS, and it's only in about the last week that I "got over" not being able to teach my Dragonite Superpower. Physical Lapras and Icy Wind support are a lot harder to pull off for that reason, as well.

Right now I'm cursing the fact that Lucario/Riolu only have a one in eight chance of being female. Makes getting egg moves kind of a [sonic slicer].
Less of a point after my more recent team switches, but I really do wish the GTS would let you view/specify Abilities... I'm getting a little tired of trading off my Marvel Scale Dratini for non-HA 'mans.

I just checked and I only have males. Want a Drowzee? Or two? Or fifty?
Thanks, Quickie, but I think I'll manage. XD

And that is EXACTLY why half my team packs either Steel or Poison attacks. No Sylveon's putting a stop to my Dragonite. XD
>tfw one of my greatest moments was downing an Aggron with my Sylveon.
It IS fun when you just rip through an alleged check/counter, no argument there. My Dragonite once took down an Ice Beam Mewtwo. More predictable to a seasoned player, but Mewtwo delivering an Aura Sphere to Darkrai is also satisfying.
You know, nobody on random WiFi seems to remember that Sableye is a ghost. She's taken two Aura Spheres and an Extremespeed in the last week. It's like Gen IV all over again, back when my Rotom was laughing at the enemy's Earth Power...

It's driving me nuts! I've completely lost track of how many eggs I've hatched and I've just filled four more boxes of Drowzee. I know I'm nearing that magic number, but it's driving me crazy. I just want a pink Drowzee!
I totally understand the insanity, I went through it.
And like me, you will get your pink Baku! AND YOU WILL CARESS IT :W
... And to think I intend to breed another shiny Ralts again, haha.
I WILL LOVE IT AND SQUEEZE IT AND CALL IT GEORGE :W
This is why I breed for stats. Not shinies. I am maintaining my sanity.
Even breeding for Stats is too insane for me even with the new mechanics, I only do it if I need Max Speed and if I don't have the right parents it takes forever.
If you're aiming for nothing more than a balanced 6 across the board or min/maxing one or two stats and getting a decent nature, it's not that hard.
I just learned that Jigglypuff that used to follow Ash and the Gang back in the day might have been a dude.....a Pokemon that can only be Male 25% of the time too.....is it wrong that my mind is blown by this....?
Ash always had a thing with encountering rare Pokemon. Rare gendered Pokemon as well.
That Jigglypuff is an ass man like Ash.

In the dark ages before I traded for a flawless Ditto, I wasn't really having any real trouble with stat breeding... Dittos from XY help a lot. You just need to hope the knot carries the stats you need, when you're in the early phases of a breeding chain.
Hell, I think I've actually gone insane now from breeding. I've been spending too long just for 30 and 0 stats where I want them.
My Drowzee are hatching with max HP and Atk stats, with a few mutants with a max SpDef and SpAtk here and there. On average, I'm getting 2IV Drowzee, and I've kept the rare 3IV baby in a separate batch.
Considering that I started out with some really crappy parents, I'm pleased with the results.

I'm getting desperate.
I DEMAND MY PINK BAKU BABU :W
But killing Gogoats won't make it better, in fact it probably would make it worse since Gogoats are so empathetic. They sense feelings through their horns.
Quote from: ViperAcidZX on May 04, 2015, 06:08:45 PM
If slitting a Gogoat's throat to appease RNG-Arceus helped you find a Mirage Cave, maybe Quickie should slit ten of 'em in hopes of getting her shiny Drowzee. 8D
It's more giving me a different Mirage Spot after FOUR consecutive days of the same Spot.
Also, it's either Gogoat or Mareep. Maybe should have sacrificed Ares... NO REGRETS
......How can you sacrifice a Sheep God........?
WHATEVER IT TAKES :W
I meant like how is that literally possible. It's a Sheep God!
Simple.
With a butcher knife god. 8D
Butcher Knife God better be sharper than a Hitori Hanzo sword. We'll make Bloody Marys out of Ares' blood if we have to.
For added irony, this year is also the Year of the Goat/Sheep/Ram.
I'm just going to bury these poor Gogoats and console the Gogoat widows and Skiddo orphans.

There's going to be a new upcoming event for ORAS:
Quote from: Serebii.netA new event has been announced for the US. From June 22nd to July 12th you can go to Gamestop to get a serial code to receive a special Dragonite. It knows the move Dragon Dance, Outrage, Hurricane and Extremespeed, which is a difficult move to get on Dragonite, and has its Hidden Ability of Multiscale and holds a Lum Berry, all to coincide with today's release of the Roaring Skies TCG set.
I believe a certain Shell will go Hyper over this. 8D
I might stop by my local GS to pick it up if only to Pokebank it for trade fodder.

At last! One less reason to pay for Pokemon Bank/Transfer!
Pretty generous that they threw Multiscale on there also. Despite my aversions to Gamestop I'll need to pick that one up.
(hopefully that means Roaring Skies has a Dragonite card that doesn't suck)
Well, a card's strength is pretty subjective, so imma just post the two cards for your per view.

Well, I've been out of the TCG for a good long while, though the fact that the early Dragonites were so god-awful was part of the reason I was so rarely tempted to get back in. Certainly seems like they brought him up a notch, though.
*just adopted a French lady-Hypno for a Drowzee*
I should mate her with Sleeper.
QuickEdit: Annnnd just adopted a German Hypno. I adopted three Hypno tonight; the French Hypnomade for a Drowzee, English Hypno male for a Heatmor, and German Hypno male for a Turtwig.
I CAN STOP AT ANY TIME D:
BREED THE FOREIGNER HYPNOS TOGETHER
BREED OUT ARYAN SHINY DROWZEE
...If I do that, it won't reset the RNG, will it? Like, will I be starting at the beginning? D:
And... I have ten Hypno. At least. >.>
Hmm... I guess I can understand the concern. XD
And to be honest, I really don't know. D:
I think the RNG is set once you get the egg.
Well... with how many eggs I've gone through, I'm not chancing it. >.>
I'm over fifty boxes full in my Bank.

Beldum why you take so long to hatch D:
Because it's Beldum.
Well, Wonder Trade was good to me today. I filled up some more of my Dex. Drowzee adoptions also went waaaaay up.
Then, I got an extra Charizard. Because I like to get random evolved starters so I have bargaining chips for trades.
Oh, and this happened.
(http://imageshack.com/a/img905/8711/TFlvZi.jpg)
Pichu... that's not appropriate.
Okay, quick question.
Have you ever had a Pokerus infection that didn't take? Last night, I infected Prof. Hypno with Pokerus from one of my many carriers (a Gallade I got through Wonder Trade who has it), and when I checked him this evening, he wasn't infected.
But he wasn't recovered. I just infected him again, using the Gallade. The first infection didn't take.
Has this happened to anyone?
That's weird. It definitely carried?
I think it can take a while sometimes.
Unless it actually became more complicated in recent games, I have no idea
It carried and I saved. Prof. Hypno is infected a second time. I may have not saved the last time, for all I know, or I misread the screen while switching and thought he was infected.
If this happens again, I'll use my Tropius carrier. That one is a guaranteed infection.
That Tropius dispenses bad bananas?!
Oh yes, those bananas are baaaaaaaad~
I also have a Hypno carrier, a Koffing carrier, and a few other carriers. I was testing the Gallade's strain, as the Tropius strain only lasts a day.
Gel-nanas~
Okay, to get decent stuff at the Battle Maison, do you have to buy everything there and it'll cycle to the next batch of stuff, like Ability Capsules and such? Or do you need to battle to get a certain rank?
Not as far as I know. Each attendant sells a different category of stuff.
Ability capsule is at the bottom of the battle items shop list, on the right(?) attendant inside?
On the topic of maison though, I should clear super single. Mostly M-Beedrill destroyed single, but super has my team (M-Beedrill Steelix Chandelure) stuck around 10 matches, haha.
The contents of the shops in the Maison don't change. You just need to get enough BP to buy it, an Ability Capsule costs 200 BP. Also there's like 2 or 3 clerks so you need to find which one has it.
Yep, what the above two said.
If you have the BP, you can buy anything.
... Like the [tornado fang]ing TMs in XY. 8U
The Ablity Capsule is the most expensive by the way.
Oh, okay.
I have over 300 BP.
Then you can buy the Ability Capsule.
Sweet! Just need to remember to talk to the other clerk, whom I keep forgetting about.
And then do some more banking. I'll move some Drowzee around for adoptions~
Unless you REALLY have a Pokemon that you want to switch Abilities... Plus it's a one-time use.
SPEND ON DEM TMS
My 3IV Hypno is a candidate. He'd be better off with Insomnia. But, I may have a 3IV Insomnia Drowzee somewhere.
I just want to buy frivolous stuff! D:
*throws BP at the screen*
Oops, forgot to mention that the Capsule only switches between the Pokemon's normal Abilities. You cannot switch to its Hidden Ability.
*takes your BP*
Inner Focus is crap anyway.
Any other nifty items I should spend BP on?
Here's the list.
http://www.serebii.net/xy/battlemaison.shtml (http://www.serebii.net/xy/battlemaison.shtml)
I personally like the Assault Vest myself.
*Has a Porygon*
*Buys stuff to evolve it*
YES GLITCHY FREAK-OUT
Yeah it seems to be the only place you can get those items unless you wanted to try you luck at those mini games on the Global Link, which is totally unreliable and the chance of getting them are slim. So yeah buying those there is kind of worth it.
COMPLETE YOUR TM COLLECTION
Eh personally only Explosion, Volt Switch and Dream Eater are worthwhile.
NOT THE POINT B(
Oh and Sludge Wave is pretty nice if you have a Pokemon that can learn it.
I bought Dream Eater ages ago. Got Incinerate, too. I think I got a few TMs earlier, but I forget which ones.
Quote from: Dr. Wily II on June 05, 2015, 08:39:00 AM
NOT THE POINT B(
Indeed, my obsessive collection was completed some time ago. 8) If you are gonna prioritize, though, then besides what Sakura said, Swagger can also be handy against a Special Attacker. It's actually banned in competitive play now because it's so easy to abuse if you really want to.
For non-TM items, the two big ones are Assault Vest as Sakura said, and also Weakness Policy. Weakness Policy is one-time use, but it can be DAMN EVIL in versus. I especially love using it with Mewtwo, it puts his Y Mega Stone to shame. [eyebrow]
Air Balloon is only marginally useful because your opponent will be alerted when a 'man is holding it.
Absorb Bulb/Cell Battery do NOT stack with abilities that prevent damage. So my bright idea for Water Absorb/Absorb Bulb Lapras was a no-go, don't even bother.
It happened again.
I'm using my Zapdos, who is carrying the Tropius Pokerus strain. I don't know why the infection didn't take. Prof. Hypno had the Pokerus status, and I battled with him while he had the status and I saved multiple times. He's not recovered, either, and I'll go infect him a third time.
Huh. This is very weird...
I infected him a third time, saved twice, and closed the game (took a pic for proof). I'll restart and see what happens.
This is on XY right? What's your game version?
It's X and it's whatever latest version updated. I restarted the game and he's still infected, so I think that Gallade strain is weird. My Tropius strain works, usually.
Huh... Very weird... Guess Gallade might be a mis-infected.
I'm tempted to re-infect the Gallade and see what happens. Though, I swear I've used him to infect others before without this problem. I'm blaming Prof's shiny immune system.
If Prof recovers tomorrow and I see that little status symbol, then I'll know it took. If not, then I'll try again with my Tropius so he gets the infection direct from Patient Zero.
And if it still doesn't take, then I don't know what's going on.
Prof is immune. D:
Here's what happens for those playing the home game:
I withdraw my Galagladi (Gallade) from the PC and put him in front, with Prof right beside him. I go out and battle with Galagladi. After each battle, I check Prof's status to see if he's infected.
Once he's infected, I go back to the PokeCenter and heal the party. Galagladi goes back in the PC.
I double-check Prof's status and save.
The next day, when I play, I checked Prof's status and the Pokerus status is gone, but the recovery symbol isn't there. And since I've been able to infect him three times, then obviously the infection status isn't being held.
This time, I used my Zapdos carrier. My Zapdos has a strain from my Tropius, which is the strain I usually use. I again infect Prof, saved multiple times, and decided to test a theory by restarting the game.
The infection is still there. However, there are additional factors at play; one being the internal clock. I'll only be sure if the infection took by checking tomorrow.
Another option is to box Prof for the night.
Box Prof for the night. No exceptions.
I just turned off my 3DS, so I'll power it back up and box Prof.
This way, I can check his status as well.
QuickEdit: Prof boxed, and my Houndoom, Sheila, is also infected. I didn't even notice until I boxed Prof.
I guess he and Sheila did some of their own Super Training...
POKEPESTILENCE
Okay, checked Sheila and she's recovered, so that infection took without a problem. I also got Prof out of the box and he still has an active infection. I'll let him recover and check again tomorrow.
Methinks the infection will take this time, because I used my Tropius strain.
Seriously leaning towards a theory the Gallade was "hacked" with Pokerus.
If only they could've hacked it with some decent stats while they were at it. >.>
You take what you get. *shrug*
Okay, I'm gonna test the hacked theory by infecting a different Pokemon with the Gallade strain and see what happens. In the meantime, checking Prof's status...
SUCCESS! Prof held the infection and recovered!
Okay, earlier I was doing some Wonder Trade Drowzee adoptions and went to send out a Drowzee. The connection cut out before the trade was made, which has happened to me a few times. So, I went to trade it again.
In the Drowzee's place was a Duskull.
Either the trade somehow went through or the connection error killed my Drowzee.
Not helped by the fact that I got a Yamask for a Drowzee in the very next trade. ._.
Oh, and I got a Volbeat, sent it back, and got a Charizard in return and now I feel bad.
It must have went through, because otherwise you would still have that Drowzee.
Obviously it went through.
And I played with Prof. Hypno and got a Cross-Top Screw Cushion.
So, anyone get good Wonder Trades lately?
I just started playing again and finally used the Bank to get the Johto Starters and used my brother's 3DS to get the items I needed.

MOOOOOOOOOARRRRRRRRRRRR :W
So, a while back, I bagged an extra Xatu off GTS so I had a decent bargaining chip for trades. I deposited it a little while ago for a Froslass, not really caring if the Froslass was any good.
I GOT A LVL100 6IV SHINY FROSLASS.
This... is a problem XD
Though, are these pentagon Pokémon you're receiving?
I was pretty surprised! XD
And yes.
Good for you I guess, but... Uhh... Yea... Nice to have? XD
Only one Wonder Trade shiny doesn't have the pentagon, and that's Pepita the Arcanine, who is from Unova.
Illegal use of Masuda particles is serious business!! *zaps with the ray*

Sooooo... in search of Dex-filling, I made some repeat trades to get new trades (grabbed an extra Arcanine and traded it for an Azelf), and then decided to splurge on a shiny Alakazam.
That's one off my shiny wishlist. Just need that pimp Honchkrow...
And I'm not counting that Alakazam as one of the surprise shinies. I actively traded a Porygon2 for it.

Totally worth it for shitty muse.
Get some other legendary with it, since you can catch Azelf and his shitty trio in AS. 8D
... LIKE MANAPHY
Oh wait you traded the Arcanine for the Azelf? I thought it was the other way around, that's awesome then.
Yeah, and the Arcanine I got for a Chansey. So, it was a chain trade for shitty muse that I plan to use as a bargaining chip anyway. Just like the Regis, when I get my hands on them.
*goes on to say all 4 Regis are in AS too* 8D
You really are aiming for NatDex completion huh... *salutes*
I WANT MY SHINY CHARM :W
I want it for the day that I decide to go through Masuda Hell again.

Raising Absols for a Mega right now, and I love that it all just clicks together now, with the egg moves and nature I initially needed in another Pokémon in my Mega box :D
Just beat Pokemon X while I was camping, my final team (before starting over out of boredom while I wait for the money to buy the ruby/sapphire remake) was--
Greninja
Charizard
Lucario
Gardevoir
Pidgeot
Sylveon (Who I was tempted to call Flesh Ribbon : > )
Looking back Pidgeot has been in my team in EVERY game I've ever played and Gardevior is still my favorite pokemon. owo
Gardevoir waifu/husbando~
Magic Leaf, Psychic and Thunderbolt reminded me why I love that pokemon. owo owo
Guessing you didn't teach it Moon Blast since you had a Sylveon?
Yeah seemed kinda pointless at that point, I believe my Gardevoir had Clear Mind? The one that raises Special attack and Defense I believe?
Calm Mind, yeah that makes sense.
Flesh Ribbon handled all my Fairy Type damage needs. My team wasn't optimized or anything and had a lot of useless moves but since barely anyone in that region was smart enough to have a full team of pokemon (plus me being 20+ levels above everyone else thanks to spending time catching everything I could fine) I was okay and only the champion really gave me any resistance.
Worst Rival and Team leader in pokemon. Seriously--kill everyone accept for Team Flare who are basically a bunch of self entitled hipsters who are guilty of the same stuff their leader accues everyone else of? Also wasn't the fire pokemon user in the elite four a member of that group, how did she get off without being arrested after the whole wipe out all life on earth thing? -AC
I miss team rocket so much. All they wanted was money.
I don't know, Lysandre was insane but Team Rocket wasn't much better since they abuse Pokemkn and there's better ways to make money in my opinion. Really Team Plasma was the best, Ghetsis was a huge ass dick but he did [parasitic bomb] in both his games before he turned into a vegetable.
I preferred Psyshock on my waifu. :P
As for Team FLAIR... Yea, their plans were comparatively shallow, compared to Plasma and Galactic before them. And Malva was indeed. As for why she was not arrested, the reason is explained in the postgame Looker sidequest.
I just miss Jessie and James, I felt bad for them after a while. 8D
As for Malva all I did was fight a very underwhelming Mewtwo then called it quits. XD
My underwhelming Mewtwo fought Malva and buried her Chandelure.
J&J technically didn't exist ingame! 8D
As for Malva...
[spoiler]In said sidequest, Xerosic was up to no good again, and in exchange for access to a secret level in the labs, Looker cleared her of her association with Team FLAIR.[/spoiler]

Eh Jesse and James only showed up in Yellow, and they didn't really do much, they don't really have anything to do with Game canon.
As for Galactic, Cyrus was creepy as [tornado fang] but he surrounded himself with idiots save for his Admins, heck I believe most of them got into Galactic because they wanted Clefairies. Then again he needed numbers and no sane person would go through with his plans, he even kept his Admins in the dark though only Saturn would have probably flipped since Mars wanted to follow Cyrus and Jupiter just did it for the Evulz.

I swear Mewtwo went back to being his broken self the minute I caught him, but my one pokemon should not be able to half his HP in one attack when I encountered him. -AC
That's a problem with most Legendaries sadly. That and Mewtwo was the most bullshit in Gen 3 since he had Recover, Safe Guard and his Psychic hurt like hell. Later generations nerfed his battles to make it less frustrating.
I felt like Jessie and James' inclusion in Yellow helped it feel a bit like the anime back in the day.
Eh really Yellow was honestly just a cash grab and Jessie and James didn't really add much to the game besides some really low level battles. I would honestly kind of prefer to play Blue over Yellow if I didn't want to play Leaf Green. I still want to LP Leaf Green someday.
I miss the days where a wild Mewtwo could wreck me. 8D 8D
Yeah Mewtwo was a [sonic slicer] in Gen 3, doesn't help that most of the Pokemon with Sleep Moves were half Poison. I seriously wonder why the Gastley line is half Poison to this day.
I miss the days where I thought I needed a GameShark for a Mew, but the cute little bugger can be found with a glitch the entire time.

Wasn't because it's mostly because most of it's body is poisonous gas (at least for Gastly)?
Because Gastly is a ball of gas.
As for Mewtwo being a [sonic slicer]... Never had a problem. 8U
Something like that but I meant from a design stand point really. Then again I really shouldn't question it, Gen 1 was a huge ass mess with a lot of things.
I've never had a problem with Mewtwo because I use a Master Ball like the pussy that I am. 8U
I used the Master Ball on Entei because [tornado fang] Roaming Legendaries, especially Roaming Legendaries with Roar. I never fought him in Gen 1 but I would use the Master Ball there.

Getting rid of some Drowzee and bagged a Jumpluff and Togetic off Wonder Trade.
Sakura, I am 100% certain you haven't fought Entei in Gen 1.
:D
I'm talking Gen 3 in Leaf Green, I haven't fought Mewtwo in Gen 1.
TBH I forgot Entei was in LG.
Then again I lost my copy when I was 12.
That's understandable, honestly Gen 3 was a frustrating Generation if you wanted to complete the Dex or heck even getting certain Pokemon. For example there was no clock in Fire Red and Leaf Green so if you wanted to get an Espeon or Umbreon you had to beat the Elite 4, do a side quest to get the ability to trade to Ruby or Sapphire, get the Eevee to like the trainer in Ruby or Sapphire to evolve it and then trade it back to Fire Red or Leaf Green.
Ugh really some of the stupid things that happen within the generation sometimes. -AC
That's why I feel like they finally got everything set with Gen VI where it's really simple to obtain literally everything.
Gen 4 and on did a pretty good job with that really.

I got that shiny Giratina rated and it has only three IVs. HP, SpAtt, and Speed.
Today's Wonder Trading got me a Jumpluff, Ponyta, German Swalot (Schlukwech), Togetic, and a Kricketot. I had also gotten a Sylveon off GTS for Dex purposes and then traded it for a Latios. Then, I traded my Regice for a Regirock, which I plan to pawn off for something else, though not sure what.
Registeel? :D
And 3 IV legends are the norm!
Already have Registeel's Dex info from a bounce. :P
And since 3 IVs are the norm, then I think shiny PokeSatan is fine. He's got his pentagramgon, and his origin is from a "faraway place," so most likely Hoenn.
Oh yeah I forgot that Legendaries have at least 3 perfect IVs now.

Regigigas then? :D
As for PokeSatan, I believe it was from an event in Gen5? It was alongside shinies of Time and Space. So, Unova. :D
If he was from Unova, it would've said so. I have other Pokemon from Unova. I have a Hypno from friggin' Johto. It's Pokemon from ORAS that have the "faraway place" location. So, he might've come from a Spanish event, since he is El Giratino.
Huh... I MUST KNOW!! *pops into Serebii*
Either way you must take a picture of him eating cupcakes because a Giratina eating cupcakes is one of the most adorable things ever.
I'll feed him tomorrow~
QuickEdit: Giratina's in ORAS, by the way. (http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-xy/location/487.shtml)
OK I HAVE MY ANSWER
... It seems that the guy that W-traded to you caught PokeSatan in ORAS indeed... A Shiny PokeSatan FROM A RIFT IN DIMENSIONAL SPACE
WilyEdit: I know, but I was thinking of a shiny event, and it did occur in BWB2W2, but the level was 100, not lvl50 as seen in your photo. (http://serebii.net/events/dex/487.shtml)
Yeah, I hunted down the events and saw that, which didn't match mine. So, some guy soft-reset to get a shiny... and Wonder Traded it.
Yea... Your W-trade luck amazes me. XD
FEED HIM AND RUB HIM AND CALL HIM GEORGE
But she can't call him George.
Oh, I can call him George. I just can't plunk it into the game. I call my Johto Hypno "Nana," since she's my oldest Pokemon, even though I can't plunk it into the game.
Exactly what Quickie said!

Yeah it'll be worse in this game. Also if you want an Aron you have to backtrack to the Granite cave once you get the Mach bike.
I'm debating if I want to go all out and catch everything I can like X or just make my first run a casual one. I admit I never really played Sapphire and Ruby much back on the GBA.
Better acquainted with Red/Blue and it's GBA remakes honestly. And X now.
Well the Gyms in the original Ruby and Sapphire were quite brutal, though they at least toned Norman down quite a bit.
Are the people in Sapphire/Ruby's region smart enough to have full teams? Because I think the inhabitants of X/Y's region have issues with that. 8D
Am looking forward to a real challenge though. I choose Treecko as my starter, he has the highest Sass factor.
Full teams? Nope. XD
You'll only get full teams with the E4 and Champion.
Now...
CUPCAAAAAAAAAAKES
So, I got an Omanyte named Lord Helix...
... ALL HAIL LORD HELIX
I also got an Aegislash for a spare Gengar, and then traded it for a Virizion.
And my collection of Trapemon is growing with a male Lopunny and a male Gothitelle.
AND I added ANOTHER shiny to my collection. However, this was an active decision. I needed a Swanna, someone was offering a shiny Swanna for a lvl100 Ditto, and I wasn't going to give up Trojan for anything less than a shiny and/or Legendary.
So now I have a shiny Swanna.
Pimp slime for shiny... I guess that's OK. XD
We have learned an all important lesson today.
Eldritch Abominations like cupcakes.
WE SHALL NEVER FEAR THEM AGAIN
Not as if Trojan was all that good of a Ditto anyway. It was one of my crappier ones.
Not sure what I'll trade Virizion, Azelf, and Regirock for. Azelf will no doubt go to Mesprit, which will then be traded for an Uxie. Regirock is just Legendary fodder for whatever I feel like trading it for. Virizion has just a bit more weight for bargaining.
Yay, shitty Legendaries! 8D
And after all that trading... I amassed over 33,000 PokeMiles, so I bought 20 Rare Candies for 10,000 PokeMiles.
I lost all my Pokemiles when I QRC-hacked my six-IV breeding Ditto. The game REALLY doesn't like being played on a 3DS it isn't registered with. >_<
That Extremespeed Dragonite event is this week, right? I haven't set foot in Gamestop since PDP made their Yoshi fight pad, but I gotta be sure not to miss this.
If so, then I'll see if I can get to Gamestop.
I did get a Dragonite off of GTS, so I have at least that for Dex info.
I think it starts on the 22nd.
EDIT: I just checked the event and you have to have ORAS to get it, you can't get it with X or Y.
Damn. I hate that they abandoned X/Y when ORAS came out.
There is conflicting information... So... Just confirm with GameStop later. And yes, it does start on 22 June, and the code distribution ends on 12 July.
... Help me grab one. D:
Ends on 12th July? If you like, Wily, I can see about getting you one after I get home on like Tuesday/Wednesday since I have both OR and AS, so I can get an extra. I have a GS around the corner.
If someone else doesn't do it before me of course.
I'll try to get in as soon as I can and grab a couple.
IT'S A RACE TO THE GAMESTOP QUICKIE
SEE YOU AT THE FINISH LINE where you'll already be waiting for me
More is merrier... Yes... *pats waifu*
Okay, you want weird Wonder Trade luck?
I just got one of my Drowzee back. It came from Australia.
It went to Australia huh... Must have seen some Kangaskhans.
I named him Globetrotter and plan to raise him, because obviously, I was meant to keep that Drowzee.
If the Dragonite event is really only for ORAS I'll breed Multiscale Dratinis for everyone. Besides I want use that Dragonite to breed Dragon Dance onto my Bagons.
I got a Latias for an Aron last night, so now I have both Latis.
I got a Ralts for a Ralts.
Fair trade! 8D
How about getting your own Drowzee for your own Drowzee? 8D
Unfortunately, it seems that memories don't stack, so I don't know if Globetrotter has been anywhere else.

I have DOZENS of Multiscale Dratinis, if anyone here still needs one, they only have to ask.
The bigger issue is Extremespeed. You can only get it by transferring all the way from Heart Gold/Soul Silver. Even though the attack is breedable as an Egg Move, none of Dragonite's bunk mates can learn it. It has to originate either from HG/SS, or an event.
So, on GTS, I scored a Heatran for a Clamperl and a Kyogre for a Shinx. Gave up a Rhyperior for a Regigigas, too.
So many legendaries...
I gave up Regigigas for Groudon and Kyogre went to Dialga, which went to Lugia. I have Heatran waiting for a Palkia. So far, no takers. If I don't get a taker soon, I'll just look for a bounce later.
So who's left?
In terms of Legendaries? Ho-Oh, Palkia, Keldeo, Shaymin, Cobalion, Terrakion, Landorus, Tornadus, Thundurus, Uxie, Mesprit, Manaphy, Phione, Deoxys, Victini, Genesect, Darkrai, Cresselia, Arceus, Suicune (seen only), Entei (seen only), and Raikou (seen only).
Hmm... When you get your Manaphy... Don't forget to Ditto it for Phione.
AND THEN BREED MORE PHIONES FROM PHIONE
I haven't even been able to find a Manaphy on GTS up for bid. Like, at all. I can get a Phione, though.
Phione doesn't evo into Manaphy sadly... Stupid Phione. 8U
I'll have to bounce a Manaphy.
Right now, though, I'm trading off another box of Drowzee. Got some Pokemon I needed and some repeats of ones I traded away to get others.
QuickEdit: Scored a Raikou for an Ampharos.
Sooooo...
I just got a Korean ExtremeSpeed Dragonite through Wonder Trade...
... They have that too!?
Apparently, because I just got one.
QuickEdit: Just looked at this Dragonite and it was apparently bred to have ExtremeSpeed. It's also carrying a Skillful Battler ribbon.
Another QuickEdit: I just got a Virizion through Wonder Trade. Earlier, I had gotten a Heatran. WAT IS MY LUCK
... More bargaining chips!
I got a second Dragonite code. PM me if you want it.
I also have 2 extra Dragonite codes as well from Gamestop yesterday, I forgot to mention it last night. The clerk also confirmed that you do indeed need ORAS to use the code.
Does anyone still play Pokemon Pearl? I can give my codes if you want me to.
The server for the Wi-Fi of DS games has been discontinued since last year so the code would be useless.
http://www.nintendo.com/whatsnew/detail/vyWpoM6CBIe6FjW8NIY7bvzOrgBURhzw (http://www.nintendo.com/whatsnew/detail/vyWpoM6CBIe6FjW8NIY7bvzOrgBURhzw)
I still think they should've kept the services running a little bit longer but...
Could have been out of their control but I agree.
Yeah, what with server maintenance costs, I can definitely see it.
It actually was out of their control: they were using GameSpy servers for WFC titles
Gamespy shut down after WFC though, didn't it?
So much for that plan. I think would have to buy Mega Ruby or something.
Soooo...
I just got a Phione and a shiny Froslass through Wonder Trade.
8D
*Dodges flying eggs*
Sacrificing Gogoat is really paying off for you, Quickie.
*runs away fast*
Also aren't you armed with eggs?
SPREAD THE PHIONES
I got a shiny Alomomola through Wonder Trade, and just now a shiny Slugma. I'm gonna send the Alomomola back, though.
Keeping the Slugma because it looks pretty cool.
... I think my Shiny Slugma in Emerald is still alive...
Want another shiny Slugma? :3
I'm fine. XD
... And to think I encountered a second shiny Slugma in the same Emerald game, at the same location of Route 113... I didn't catch it, because I reset my game to try for a shiny Bagon. (I failed.)
I got a shiny Masquerain and a shiny lvl100 Wurmple named worm god.
PURPLE WORM GOD
I traded the shiny Masquerain (after taking the Master Ball from it. >.> ), traded the extra shiny Froslass for a Politoed, and I just got a shiny Phanpy in Wonder Trade.
This is starting to get ridiculous.
I shall begin breeding Extreme Speed Dratinis tomorrow.
... An attached Master Ball!?
... Next time, when I can access online, tell me when you are online. I want bling too. :W
*Decides to play with Prof since I'm feeling blue. Prof has his back toward me, but is eager for pets. Prof falls asleep when I say I'm feeling depressed.*

No rubs for you!
So that shiny Absol I was trying to catch had a Life Orb. Thanks for not telling me, DexNav!
;(

...
Darnit.
My Larvesta, Tequila, evolved.
He evolved into a big fluffy squishy~
YES A BIG FLUFFY SQUISHY THAT CAN BE A REPLACEMENT SUN!!
I fly on my big fluffy squishy~
Icarus flew too high cause he wanted to hug teh squisheeeeh
I had originally intended to raise a different Larvesta named Mothra, but I used my Flame Body Larvesta as an incubator, so Tequila ended up being raised.
I love Tequila. HE'S SO FLUFFY AND SQUISHY~
Is Mothra Swarm? Just asking.
AND SQUISHY HAS ALWAYS BEEN AWESOME AND SQUISHY
I think she is. I'll have to check.
Okay, what the hell my luck.
Shiny Latios.
I've gone from no shinies to shinies coming out of my ass! I should see a doctor because this is worrisome.
The next thing you know, you get a Shiny Latias.
I'm gonna rename Globetrotter to Wally. In memory of Wally the therapy Hypno. O^O
Caught myself a Magnemite.
Run over to the Power Plant, feed it a Rare Candy and instant Magnezone!
1. I need to evolve it into a Magneton first.
2. It's level 6.
3. I'm playing AS so I think I have to go to New Mauville to do that.
But I think I'll breed more Magnemite after I'm done getting my Bagon with Dragon Dance. Also breeding Dratinis til I get a Male to do such breeding. It may take a while since I usually get Female Dragons for some reason.
If you use a Blissey Base you can make it evolve in one fight. I have no idea how good Magnezone is, but I don't care, I love that thing.
It's a decent Physical Tank with high Special Attack last and I have always wanted to raise one for the heck of it. But yeah I need to breed it first to get the Nature I want.
I evolved one of my Magneton into a Magnezone for Dex info, and then I traded it for something else.
Currently trying to fish for a Staryu. Ugh I wish these things weren't so rare.
*gets a Pikachu named Twinkle*
That's an adorable name! O3O

It came through Wonder Trade. I suppose I'd better start breeding.

Pretty much done breeding Bagons, now I'll breed that Magnemite.
I got a Fletchling through Wonder Trade and it was holding a Master Ball.
Bagged it. >3>
I also got a shiny Ponyta. o3o
I kind of want to find a Cubone with a Thick Club, ugh if only the chances weren't 5% and I don't think a Pokemon with Compound Eyes would help too much. On the plus side I have a Swinub with Thick Fat now.
5% becomes 20% with Compound Eyes.
DO EET
Guess I should raise a spare Joltik.
I JUST HATCHED A SHINY NINCADA
2 for 1 shiny tho ;D
Quote from: Quickman on June 28, 2015, 12:49:10 PM
I got an ExtremeSpeed Marvel Scale Dratini.
If you feel like breeding a spare with Extremespeed, I would be eternally grateful (damn ORAS exclusivity...).
I'll send the Dratini to the Daycare after I'm done getting Phione eggs. I have a 6IV Ditto in there, as well.
Should the Dratini hold anything? I don't have experience with breeding egg moves.
Nope, Extremespeed is an Egg Move, should transfer regardless.
Got the Thick Club, good thing I brought that Noibat with me too.
Got a shiny Himontop through Wonder Trade!
I just got a Ho-Oh through Wonder Trade.
I really wish I had your luck.
I think it's more that I trade and trade and trade and trade and trade. Most of the trades I get are the usual crap.
I tried Wonder Trade earlier. Half an hour of nothing, haha.
I'll... stick to my Masuda Rays.
I pulled a similar bout of determination with the GTS, trying to get decent legendaries for team revisions. I got a shiny HA 6iv Rus Dialga that way. ...yeah, probably hacked, but I can't know that for sure, can I? 8D
Never got too into Wonder Trade, but sooner or later we've gotta do something with all the breeding fodder, right?
That's all I use Wonder Trade now for! 8D
I've managed to get some Legendaries off GTS by swapping constantly, though all I use them for is Dex info.
Some Legendaries come through Wonder Trade, and that's how I ended up with two Heatran, two Virizion, and two Ho-Oh. I gave away one of the Heatran already.
Can I have a Ho-Oh?
Sure! 8D
I'll be hopping online later this evening. Heading down to the pizza place for dinner, first.
Hey Sakura, I'm online right now if you want that Ho-Oh. Whatcha offering? In terms of Legendaries, I'm after Zekrom, Kyurem, Reshiram, Victini, Cobalion, Keldeo, Darkrai, Cresselia, Arceus (I'll bounce for Dex info), Manaphy, Mesprit, Uxie, Tornadus, Thundurus, and Landorus.
Can I give you a Chespin?
Sure, I'll take a Chespin.
Now I can get the 3 Legendary beasts whenever I want.
And now I just got a Zygarde. Now I have two.
Hmm I'm debating if I want to breed for a Shiny Torchic and have a Vulcan 2.0. I guess it might be a good idea to get that second Destiny Knot after all.
Hey, Quickie, I gotta go to bed now, but next time we're both on, I can bounce you a Tornadus and I do have a few spare Thundurus (no promises on how good its stats/nature are, though).
I am now hatching Sneasels.

That'd be awesome! I'm not really looking for stats so much as I am Dex info, so I'll take the crappiest of the crap.
Okay it seems that Sneasel has some Egg moves that I need to chain breed for it to learn. Good thing I got that Swinub.
(https://38.media.tumblr.com/3b55809f976864db278bb9d325a0af38/tumblr_nfaxoyonPU1scncwdo1_500.gif)
Mega Glalie, you scurry. ._.
Having rotten luck getting the right IV on a Sneasel so I just Wonder Traded a bunch along with a Ralts. Noting too notable other than Wonder Trading the same Canadian dude twice and getting a Hoppip.
I've been getting Xatu recently, along with one or two Abra. I'm waiting for the day that another of my Pokemon comes back.
Until then, I was gonna go Radar-chain for a shiny Abra, but after over an hour of back-and-forth running around, I didn't find a single Abra. I think I may have depleted the wild population.
I am happy to announce that I have successfully Wonder Traded all of my Drowzee. All of the Masuda Method Drowzee are gone.
Except for Wally, who came back.
Now that we have the Johto Starters with Hidden Abilities I wish the Sinnoh Starters had Hidden Abilities that were easily available.
Does anyone know where I can get an exp share in all games and versions of Pokemon especially the Pokemon Pearl?
http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Experience-affecting_item#Exp._Share (http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Experience-affecting_item#Exp._Share)
You can probably use Bulbapedia for almost any question.
Now that my Gallade is close to level 50 I kind of wonder what Attacks I should give him.
Psycho Cut and Close Combat are obvious.
Night Slash...
... Leaf Blade. 8D
I was thinking Psyco Cut, Drain Punch, Knock Off and Leaf Blade myself.
So, there's a Pokemon Journey (http://thewildhypno.tumblr.com/post/123707219814/youre-never-too-old-for-a-pokemon-journey) collab floating around.
I joined in.
(https://40.media.tumblr.com/0855f8689225b2a2a955ae66717db4a8/tumblr_nrb9urWVqq1tip6qho1_540.png)
KEEP IT AWAY FROM YOUR FACE D:
Here, let's have some fun.
Use this generator (http://randompokemon.com/) and pick your Starter! Base form only, reroll for Legendaries. Then, post your random Victory Road team! :D
Starter: Bergmite
Team: Volcanion (must've gotten it on Wonder Trade 8D ), Stantler, Ninjask, Totodile, Grimer, and Shuppet.
Heh, I was planning on maybe picking up a copy of Omega again today anyway, so why not?
Starter: Larvesta
Victory Road Team: Ferrothorn, Aurorus, Simisear, Blitzle, Houndoom & Wormadam.
......
Eh, I can make that work.
Starter: Natu
VRT: Haunter, Leavanny, Probopass, Bronzong, Ferroseed, Drifloon
... HUH
*for starter, rolls Dragon types of Kanto region*
...what? :V
So the team that will bring Dratini and me to victory is...
Doduo, Staravia, Manectric, Prinplup, and Magcargo.
Sure, why not?
I'm just hatching Hippopotas right now.
Soooo...
I just got a Tornadus through Wonder Trade. 8D
I still gotta send you one of my spare Thundurus, don't I? Sorry, Quickie, I don't get online as often as I used to, but I'll keep my eyes open for ya.
This week I won't be online, as I'll be away for a while.
So I learned something new over wifi today. If you try to block the final hit of Outrage with a Fairy, the Outrage user will not be confused. Best news I've heard since Gen1's Hyper Beam finisher not requiring a recharge. After her teammates dispatched with a Mega Mawile, someone made the grievous error of throwing Togekiss against my Dragonite; Lucario OHKOed it and Dragonite was free to annihilate the non-Fairy half of the team. 8)
((EDITS: Hm, no Double Post button anymore? I'll fix that manually in a sec.))
Oh yeah, and old news, but:
(http://www.nintendo-insider.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/corocoro-pokemon-xy-movie-2016.jpg)
New frikkin' huge 'man from the movie previews, which seems to like glowing hexagons. Speculation is that it could be a new Zygarde form. Pokemon Z on the way, anyone?
They was also something else on Serebii about some tiny Pokemon but they only had a sketch. Technically we don't have a Kalos Pokemon with all base 100 stats.
EDIT: Here we are, looks Psychic/Ghost to me if it is a new Pokemon.
(http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd124/sakuraleic/Mobile%20Uploads/2015-07/newpokemon4th_zps1iqmn3k6.jpg)
Yeah, I saw that one too. Not sure what to make of it, but I could easily believe it to be a baby form of Hoopa. Except, you know, legendaries not breeding/evolving.
The lacking an all-Base-100 doesn't really surprise me (I never looked at the Event-onlys very closely before today), Gen6 doesn't have a "lesser" legendary trio either. I don't mind them bucking a trend or two, it helps keep things fresh.
Well technically we have Manaphy and Phione.....which honestly I find to be stupid.
Maybe that hatches from a Hoopa egg? I see "I have Hoopa Egg!" and "Need Hoopa Egg!" a lot when Wonder Trading.
And speaking of Wonder Trading, I'm still breeding Phione for trade. Soon plan to breed my Leavanny for Sewaddle/Swadloon Dex info, so I may breed more and send those out, too.
Not sure what my next big breeding project will be, aside from Marvel Scale ExtremeSpeed Dratini babies.
Well... Looks like from 21st July, until 4th August, the Pokemon Mileage Club at the Global Link website will have a 50% off sale on all items.
... Including Ability Capsules.
Also from July 24th - 27th in North America you can recieve a Diancie via the internet. Only for ORAS.
Time to blow those PokeMiles!

Third Diancie, here I come! 8D
And when I finally get around to beating AS, I'll have more Latis! 8D
Well you need AS first.
I have AS and an Eon Ticket. I just haven't gotten to the first gym, yet.
Ah right, should probably get to that.
I actually got started with my other ORAS game (Alpha)...
I'm convinced that I messed up by evolving the Lotad straight away, and not getting the good grass type moves.
I'm just leaving Fallarbor now towards Meteor Falls, so I have another shot at Lotad right now.
Yeah I say go for it since you can't teach it Energy Ball or Giga Drain til post game.
Yea i thought so... This is going to be an interesting sidetrack, then.
I've been using it more as a grass type, so I guess I can teach it surf when I need to, but I'm planning for a dedicated water type for dive and waterfall. Either Crawdaunt which is a total HM boss as it is, or Sharpedo.
Go for Sharpedo, it goes faster when you use Surf with it.
I had a look at lotad just now, I can get giga drain first move, but l will still be going for energy ball which is levelled after it. Gah.
Or I cheat and bank the lombre to Omega for the moves. Duh.
I think Weaviles are the most girliest Pokemon ever, even if they are male.
I'll stick with my femboy Gardevoir, Lopunny, and Gothitelle. 8D
He giggles and puts one of his claws on his hips. Then again I named after Lupin so that must be the French in him.
I guess the stages of chickens I held yesterday would be Torchic for the peeps (there were even super-fuzzy newly-hatched peeps!), Combusken for Twitter the hen, and Blaziken for Rodney the rooster.
MWAHAHAHA SPENT ALL MY POKEMILES ON ABILITY CAPSULES
... So sad.
I have about 10,000 in Y so I can get an Ability Capsule for that Female Mienshao I have with the wrong ability. She had like 4 perfect IVs on her too.
EDIT: Question: What kind of Nature would better for an Umbreon Impish or Calm?
Kind of a loaded question without knowing what you intend for Umbreon to do, but Calm is perfect if you're not using Umbreon's Attack stat. The bottom line is that you want a +Special Defense nature.
Natures work by percentage, so you get the strongest boost applying it to your best Base stat. For Umbreon, that's Special Defense. Use EVs for the other stats if need be.

I actually find Lapras to be a "girly" Pokemon also, I guess it's the big eyes coupled with curly ears? I dunno.
My only Lopunny is a sexy femboy. 8D
I think all my Lapras are female. Two are named after female pirates; Ann Bonney and Mary Harvey.
Though... I do have a male Gorebyss named Femboy! 8D

I GOT THIS THROUGH WONDER TRADE
And an Ability Capsule too.
... FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
GO GET THE PRISON BOTTLE AND FORME CHANGE THAT [sonic slicer]
First thing is I'm looking for people to clone this guy so others can have one.
It's a pentagon Pokemon too.
I wonder if this was the movie Hoopa.
Nope the OT name is too long.
Yep, it's a Movie Hoopa. The details screen said so.
Most likely cloned from one, at least.
However, the Trainer ID matches.
... Then again, the move set is different as well.
Still... FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
It's also at lv 100 while the event Hoopa is 50.
I'm worried now. What is my luck. It scares me.
That can easily be trained, and TM'd.
One cannot deny the matching Trainer ID!

Okay, who here knows how to clone? I have someone who will clone for another crew, so some people will be getting clones. But here, I need to find a good cloner who will clone this lil guy.
I have no idea. ._.
Huh, if what I'm reading on Bulba is right... Cloning via interruption to infrared trading? But it has a small chance of Pokemon erasure.
I'll leave it to the experts. >.>
In the meantime... I may stay away from Wonder Trade for a while. It's scaring me...
NO THIS IS FOR SCIENCE AND GORY
I MEAN GLORY
Instead, I played with Prof for a while. Went from Slot-top Screw Cushion, to Deep Hole Cushion, to the Mysterious Eggs.
That was fast.
Wonder what they'll hatch into...
... Wallys. D:
*gives the eggs to Prof and Sonny*
They're your problem now, boys.
Got my Extremespeed Dratini over GTS. Happy! Happy! Joy! Joy! Cost me a Ho-oh, but totally worth it. 8)
Hey...
Do you know how to clone Pokemon? If so, I have a Hoopa and a project for you! 8D
Oh, I would LOVE to, but if we're going to hack some 'mans, it'd be much easier for me to do it from scratch. I can't do the IR trade interruption cloning because I have only one GenVI game.

Following its reveal on Friday, The Pokémon Company has released the first trailer for the upcoming rhythm game, Dance? Pokémon Band!, due for release on iOS and Android. With this, it also came with release details. The app is now available on iOS and Android platforms in Japan. It can be downloaded until September 30th 2015 and played until October 29th 2015. After that, the game will no longer be playable

But... but... DDR MEWTWO! D:
Sorry Quickie, it doesn't seem like the world is ready for such a thing.....
DDR Mewtwo is a beautiful cinnamon roll. Too good for this world, too pure. :c

Ringman uses a iOS/Android emulator to test apps. Perhaps he could grab that app and extract files from it...

*decides to play AS for a while and finds a Ralts.*
*Ralts uses Teleport.*
ALL OF THE DICKS. EAT ALL OF THE DICKS.
Must have been a Dex Nav Ralts, normal Ralts don't learn Teleport til level 9 and you can't get a Ralts with that high a level unless you use the Dex Nav.
It was a lvl 13 Ralts.
It can eat all of the dicks.
Yeah just stick to Ralts under Level 9.
I got another and I'm raising it now. I must have my femboy.
Gardevoir just utterly destorys the game, besides even if you wanted a Gallade you wouldn't be able to get one until you're at the League's door step if you're really unlucky.

I'm trying to see if I can breed for a Shiny Torchic myself, but I think I'll take a break from Pokemon and play some Dragon Quest 5.
Anyone has a spare foreign Timid Ralts/Kirlia/Gardevoir? Preferably with Trace too? XD
I am sticking with my femboy male Gardevoir, thank you very much.
That Teleport femboy can still eat all the dicks. All the dicks to him. EAT ALL OF THEM. *dumps a bag of dicks on that Ralts*
The imagery... dreamworks
So many dicks in a box.
The rage was real with that Ralts.
But now, I have a Ralts named Elliot and I'll raise him into a beautiful femboy.
Yea femboy~
I was hell-bent on getting a male Ralts. All for the purposes of femboy. And that lvl 13 Ralts was male and I was imagining all the femboy adventures and then LOLTELEPORT DURR HURR HURR and I just lost it.
DexNav can be evil like that. I've felt the pain multiple times. *hugs*
At least it wasn't shiny.
QuickEdit: I got an Abra with decent Egg Moves that I plan to breed. You still have that Ice Punch Hypno? I want an egg~
I'll also need to transfer some eggs after I breed that Abra. It's in X right now.
I still didn't test out the physical hypno I did in Omega yet haha
Hm, well, I do have that egg move Abra. I could always breed out an egg move Drowzee.

I'll need to catch some fodder, anyway. Got a female Ralts with Destiny Bond and a dozen Poochyena. 8D
I would love a Timid Ralts with Trace... 8D

WILY!!
I have a Timid Trace Ralts in X! It's female, but it's still a Timid Trace! Remind me to ship her off to the Bank and I'll have her ready to give you.
Female!?
... Good... My Japanese male Ralts in X will breed again! >BD
... Was it a male? *searches thread*
EDIT: IT ISSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Breed all the Ralts Babies, all of them.
She's 5IV, too. Do I just dump Pokemon into the Transfer Box? I can transfer Pokemon to AS pretty much any time my DexNav is updated, right?
Hmm... I think so, unless you need to get the BuzzNav at Rustboro... Never tried it out myself.
... And 5 IVs... That's a conundrum... To let her hold the Destiny Knot for the IVs... Or an Everstone for the nature. XD
Well, I did just get into Rustboro. I'll DexNav for a Trace Ralts and see if I can get lucky. I have others; two Modest and one Bashful.
Oh yeah, any nature you looking for in your Ice Punch Drowzee? Or preferred Ability?
Preferred Ability: Insomnia. Nature: Doesn't matter. I love me some crappy Pokemon. 8D
Alright, if my Hypno is Insomnia... I'll Ditto. XD
Else... I'll still Ditto. XD
Looking at Serebii, I think as long as I toss that Ralts into the Bank, I can dump it into AS.
I'll start breeding the Drowzee tomorrow then. I'll let them keep the nature Hypno has as well.
In the meantime, I Wonder Traded with someone who had "Hakuna matata" as their message. And they didn't give me a Tepig and/or evolutions, or a Patrat and/or evolutions.
YOU HAD ONE JOB.

An ExtremeSpeed Dratini, so it's not a total loss.

She's a strong insomniac Hypno who don't need no sleep?
Yep, Bashing you with Ice Punches!
Hiya Quickie!
I have your Drowzee ready~
It's a male Insomnia with a Sturdy Body~
Want a nickname for him?
Sonny!
Hopefully he won't overshadow my team while leveling. My highest is I think at lvl 15. Save me an extra egg to avoid that problem. :B
LOL, while waiting for the first Egg to hatch, my breeding pair of Hypnos had 7 more Eggs. 8D
The moveset is Poison Gas, Meditite, Psybeam and Ice Punch. The first three is due to both parents having the moves at the time.
And, nickname set.
Just ping me when you are ready~
Connecting now. My AS name is Sue.
...How do I get Friends to show up again?
ehh... I'm not online yet, maybe that's why, haha. Coming on now...
Wait, you said you are at Rustboro right?
Have you gone into the Rusturf Tunnel to catch a Team Aqua Grunt?
... If not... You need to do that to get the PlayNav, where the PSS is.
I'm at Rustboro, I have the PSS, and I dealt with a Team Aqua grunt. You were there for a second.
Yea... I went to confirm something on the Home Menu, and it DC'd. XD
Thanks for the Ralts~
I'll decimate the Battle Resort population in your honour~
*drops Sonny in Amie and plays with him to earn his Ice Punch love*

SONNY NO
That accelerated quickly. XD
*Sonny starts dry-humping my leg*
NO. DOWN. BAD.
Hehe, you are the Drowzee/Hypno Whisperer. XD
And I have started on my epic Masuda quest to get another Shiny Ralts, this time in my OR. The Japanese Ralts shota from my X is now a trap Gardevoir, and is now domineering a loli Ralts from Quickie.
obby
I plan to have one of my Insomnia Hypno manhandle that shota Egg Move Abra I have. I want both of its Elemental Punches.
HOW DO
Well you might need to delete some moves until they only inherit the punches, how many Punches do the parents know?
Don't really need to delete moves.
If you send the parents in with both the Punches, and while in the Daycare they learn new moves, the babies would still have both Punches as Egg Moves.
... If I recall correctly the new Egg moves mechanic.
Uh go to Bulbapedia.
I did as soon as I posted.
QuotePassing moves down
The moves obtained by a Pokémon when hatching are as follows:
By default, the baby Pokémon will start with any moves that it learns at level 1. (In Generation II and Generation III, they knew all moves that are level 5 and below in their learnset.)
If both parents know a move that the baby can learn via leveling up, the Pokémon will inherit that move.
Prior to Generation VI, if the father knows any TM or HM moves (and in Crystal, Move Tutor moves) that the baby is also compatible with, it will inherit the move. If a genderless Pokémon breeds with Ditto, the resultant baby will inherit any compatible TM or HM moves that the genderless non-Ditto Pokémon parent knows.
If the father or (starting in Generation VI) the mother knows any specific Egg moves that the baby can learn, the baby will inherit the move. If the parents both know different Egg moves, the mother's Egg moves are passed on first, then followed by the father's.
From Pokémon Emerald onward, for a baby Pichu, if either parent is holding a Light Ball, the Pichu will know Volt Tackle. Volt Tackle cannot be passed down as a normal Egg move.
If this would result in the baby possessing more than four moves, the moves take priority in the order listed: Volt Tackle, mother's Egg moves, father's Egg moves, TM and HM moves, inherited level-up moves, baby's default moveset. The moves passed down will be ordered on the baby Pokémon by the priority listed above.
One parent has both Punches and it's the Abra. What I plan to do is get the Eggs in X, since that's where I have it and my Hypno Harem. I want to transfer those two Punches to a Drowzee.
Complete movesets for the involved parties please.
And what I said was based on my previous Shiny Ralts hunt. The Japanese Ralts had Confuse Ray as an Egg Move, and I sent him in at Lvl1. By the time I took him out, he's lvl82, and Confuse Ray logically was not there any more. HOWEVER, all Eggs that he... Churned out while he was still in the Daycare, while he was leveling up, hatched into Ralts with Confuse Ray.
Abra:
-Knock Off
-Encore
-Fire Punch
-Ice Punch
Hypno (Lavinnia):
-Dazzling Gleam
-Nasty Plot
-Psychic
-Shadow Ball
... Yikes. XD
Well... I think you don't need to move much...
The Egg Moves the Drowzee gets is Fire Punch, Ice Punch, and Nasty Plot. The fourth move... Is the TM move (Dazzling Gleam, Psychic, Shadow Ball)... Which I think goes to DG in the end...
... Save before you send them into the Daycare. >_>
Hatch an Egg, if the results are correct... Save. <_<
Okay. I'll start the project tonight after I pull my Phione out of the Daycare. If the test Egg is a success, I'll breed a couple more and then I'll need to send them to you when I can to trade to my AS.
Already deposited an incubator last night in preparation to hatch on foot.
Alright, sounds like a plan.
... Though I'll only be coming back online in... 10 hours from now?
I won't have time to get started until later tonight if I remember. Might not even get to it until later this weekend or after.
We'll see if and when then. [eyebrow]

Holy nuggets!? :O
I just did a Wonder Trade a few moments ago and sent out a level 12 Abra with Power Trick and Inner Focus ability and I got a FLIPPIN' SHINY GIRATINA from a guy from Canada! Holy... I was NOT expecting that! Much less a shiny Legendary Pokemon! But I'm keeping it! 0v0
Anyway came across a Shiny Legendary via Wonder Trade before?
Yes.
Thrice.
Shiny Spanish Giratina, shiny Latios, and a shiny Zekrom.
By the way, I'm waiting on your verification. Add me~
Oh... cool! Did your Giratina come with the Orb as well?
And you didn't get register on the Friend Codes? I thought I got everyone in the Friend Code List. :\
I'll double check again.
EDIT: Nope, Trak is online. I have you register on my 3DS.
Yep, it came with the Orb. I'd have to check what Zekrom and Latios were holding when they came through, and double-check my Shiny Box to see if anyone else is hiding in there.
And you're added! Just checked.
Cool! Well I'm far behind on my Pokemon stuff so I need to play catch up.
I've gotten many Legendaries through Wonder Trade. Heatran, Ho-Oh, Verizion (all have been traded for others and because I had extras), shiny Giratina, shiny Zekrom, another Zygarde, Tornadus, THREE Latios (one shiny), Latias, and Hoopa.
Gotten so many shinies that I traded about half of them. Gotten plenty of decent evolved Pokemon, including a shiny Arcanine, shiny Froslass, shiny Conkledurr, Garchomp (traded it), a bunch of Xatu (traded most), shiny Graveler (it was a poo ball, and it evolved and I traded it), another Arcanine (traded it), I've gotten every starter, including evolved forms and two shiny Snivy, gotten Pokemon with Egg Moves, Hidden Abilities, perfect stats, and tonight got me an Umbreon!
Oh, and perhaps the weirdest trade that truly signifies how my Wonder Trade luck runs (not counting Hoopa)...
I got one of my own traded Drowzee back. :P

I hope I can do something similar with a Torchic.

I'm gonna Destiny Knot the Abra and do another test breed. I'm hanging onto the new baby for breeding purposes and have an egg ready to ship over to my AS once I get my net back.
Ahhhh... So TM moves from the mother doesn't transfer to the baby.

http://www.pokebeach.com/2015/08/green-blob-pokemon-revealed-in-corocoro (http://www.pokebeach.com/2015/08/green-blob-pokemon-revealed-in-corocoro)
The green blob is going to appear in the next Mega Evolution special and there's multiples of them. Zygarde will be there as well, there might be some connection between the 2 since they share quite a few similarities. Still no info about that 50 foot whatever the hell that is, but Corocoro said they will have some info about that next issue.
I personally think it's a Phione-type thing. Look at Phione and the green thing. Similar body shape and if you lose one eye, the mouth, and keep the little spot beside the eye, Phione will look similar. There's too much of a similarity for me to let this theory go.
The thing looks more like Zygarde than Phione, the green thing body type is much more similar to Zygarde, minus the thing on Zygarde's back, both are green and Zygarde missing an eye too.
Besides the green thing doesn't look remotely like Manaphy at all.
I'm not saying it is Phione. I'm saying it's a baby Legendary like Phione.
Oh yeah the way you said it made it sound like it was related to Phione. Either way that is the most likely theory but I really hope it's not the case. Though really at least it's not as bad as the Spiked Ear Pichu, seriously just why?!
Ringman's Pokemon dream gave us a new theory on shiny Pokemon and why they're called "shiny."
They're bioluminescent.
Well it would account for anything that's not a mammal. But yeah it's an interesting idea.
Really Shiny Pokemon was just a fan nickname until Gen 4 made it official due to the sparkles. The sparkles was probably created since shiny Pokemon appeared in Gen 2 on the game boy color and they wanted to have a more visual cue that the Pokemon you encountered was a different color, especially with some of the Pokemon having really subtle changes when shiny.
With the right gene expression, mammals can be bioluminescent.
The shiny Drowzee we found in the dream was bioluminescent and had translucent skin, so you could see the organs. None of the other Drowzee had that, and their skin was opaque.
Ah fair enough then.
Suddenly... another theory!
Due to the bioluminescence, shiny Pokemon are prime targets for predators and most are killed in the wild. The ones that are captured have a longer lifespan in captivity.
The shiny traits are a rare mutation that causes a different pigment production or none at all (the pink shinies) and bioluminescent qualities (green shinies would glow much more brightly). Shiny Pokemon in a colony would fare better, as the members would help protect it. Lone shiny Pokemon are often found and eaten by predators.
Inbreeding causes a higher occurrence of the shiny mutation in captivity. Shinies are more common in "Pokemon mill" breeding facilities.
Yeah I certainly had similar theories.
The 50-foot whatever is obviously Zygarde's Mega Evolution.
If true I hope it means we see Kalos Mega Evolutions in the next Kalos game.
Zygarde was announced to appear in the special Mega Evolution Act IV, so I think that is a dead giveaway.
Plus Mega Evolution would give Zygarde the much needed 100BST increase to finally place it above Xerneas and Yveltal.
That is true.
I'm gonna paint that translucent bioluminescent shiny Drowzee for great justice and squick.
Nah draw a Musharna since that squicks you out more.

Meanwhile I'm curious about how someone would style an Arcanine's mane.
Why not?
Huh, what are you talking about?
EDIT: Also my search of seeing if people draw Arcanines with different hairstyles came up with nothing.
Oh, I misread. I thought you were curious on why someone would style an Arcanine's mane.
Look up styles for long-haired dogs, like chows, Newfoundlands, keeshond, and the like.
I'll look that up after I satiate my curiosity of what can be made with duct tape.

OK, finally beat the Pokemon League twice, got nearly all the TMs (I'm disliking the Mirage spot thing... missing three TMs at the moment), collected nearly all of the Legendaries from the Hoops (minus Cresselia, Giratina, Colbalion, and Landorus), and caught 235 Pokemon so far in the National Dex and seen 186 in the Hoenn Dex.
As well as got all areas unlocked. Time to start to completing the Pokedex and get all of the Pokemon.
Though I hear that having more people on your Friend List increases the amount of Mirage Islands to appear or a faster rate or respawn? Can anyone confirm that and if so can I get more people on my Omega Ruby Friend List?
Just to refresh, my Friend Code:

I've added about everyone on the Friend List here so if you guys don't mind, add me too? Loved to send you O-Powers and maybe trade and battle with you sometimes.

Just to let you guys know that they released the Shiny Rayquaza in the US! Grab your Shiny Rayquaza today by going to Mystery Gift and receiving your gift from the Internet! There's currently no End Date for it so grab it while it's hot!
And I finally managed to complete my Hoenn Dex, all 211 collected! Now for the National Dex... only 353 collected so far.
Actually it's set to end on September 14th and it's only for ORAS.
Grabbed my Rayquaza last night. I'm starting to build a collection.
And my Dex is now mostly dependent on mid-evolutions and Legendaries. Back to breeding for babies, raising said babies, and lazy raising some starters...
Another plus is that Rayquaza comes with a Dragon Fang which aren't exactly the easiest to obtain in ORAS.
I'm in Rustboro with both Diancie and Rayquaza.
If they obeyed me, that'd be great, thanks.
Got mine. Couldn't care less but at least it makes for good trade fodder in the future, I suppose. I've already got my superior Emerald Rayquaza in X so it doesn't matter.

That it would, that it would.
Treecko, now a Grovyle. Roxanne was a pushover. I'm also toting Elliot the Ralts, Sonny the Drowzee, Harley Quinn the Thunder Fang Poochyena, and Rocket the Zigzagoon. Skitter the Surskit was also on the team for a while.
I'm gonna be straight with you guys, OR is the first Pokemon game I've regretted purchasing. It's so mediocre and I prefer customizing my avatar in X so I don't even want to play competitively with it.
I'd bank all my 'mons and sell it but I got digital ;_;
I don't regret purchasing it, but I agree it's very disappointing. The main adventure is just way too easy. Have you tried Contests yet Unkawaii?
Yeah, I'm trying to get into it, but since I never played any Gen3 games, then there's no nostalgia in it for me. XY pulled me in with the nostalgia and the new features, and ORAS feels not as exciting.
I'm trying, though. May Dex Nav and boost the [tornado fang] out of my team and shiny hunt, but I'm more or less going through the motions just to progress. Barely paying attention to the story.
Maybe you'll have fun once you try the Contests.
Anyway I just hope the Diamond and Pearl remakes are better, and they expand on the Underground exploring. Not sure Sinnoh is going to be really cold again like in Platinum though I hope if it's not Dawn's not stuck in a mini dress again. I'll say again May's new outfit just doesn't do it for me.
I've played through every gen, but 3 was my least fav, and yeah, I don't know why Gamefreak thinks trainer customization should be a one-off thing. Surprisingly I don't even mind missing out on Mega Steelix.
My only regret with lacking OR/AS is all the damn tutors and promotions that now ignore X/Y, but my team is basically where I want it, and I traded for an Extremespeed Dratini, so I'm good.
Still wish I could readily teach Superpower to my Dragonites, though. Here's hoping the obligatory Z version comes soon, I guess.
I'm at the E4. I've been through nigh-on everything and I just can't push myself to even finish the game even though I'm at the end. Delta Episode isn't enough motivation for me either.
I like new May more, honestly.
I think OR has an unfair difficulty curve, actually. I blazed through the game and at some point it got grindy as [tornado fang]. They really botched the scaling. It's kind of a shame, because Gen 3 was my second favorite. Emerald was the second Pokemon game I ever finished, and ironically, I've got Emerald sitting five feet away from me and I can play that, no problem.
And yeah, I probably subconciously resent ORAS more BECAUSE Nintendo gave X/Y players nothing after the new games came out. It's like a cash grab. You get our new Pokemon gen? GOOD! One year later, have these half-assed remakes. Sell your outdated games now and buy the new thing!

You haven't been using the EXP Share, because honestly if you did it shouldn't have been grindy.
I still have the Looker stuff to do in X. Right now, though, I'm focusing on Dex completion and a few side breeding projects. I find myself coming back to X a lot and finding places I haven't explored yet.
Recently, I found Will-O-the-Wisp.
Will-O-Wisp is good but I never had much luck with it hitting since it's a 75% chance move. Really good against something like a Haxorus.
I'm not saying I used it, I'm just saying I recently found it when I felt like backtracking one day out of boredom.
I've been using the EXP Share, believe me.
It may be that I just blazed through and rolled with punches the entire time because I did have some trouble with a few fights later on, but I just wrote it off.
I don't know, maybe at some point I'll say [tornado fang] it and import my competitive team from X and sweep the E4.

That's so weird, what kind of team are you using?
I've been importing some Pokemon from X for my team. Got my max Speed Abra waiting for me and I plan to send over a few other babies. I need someone to help me transfer an egg over, though. My Elemental Drowzee awaits~

It's kind of wonky atm but I barely tried balancing. Right now I'm running Pikachu, Samurott, Torkoal, Mightyena, Azumarill, and Sceptile. I did use Latios for a while but I swapped for Samurott because I'm too proud to have legendaries in my hall of fame.
So like I said, I might use my X team because that's properly trained and balanced and just clear the game.

Yeah. Mostly because it's adorable. Probably not a good idea, but it's so adorable :3
Did you find the Light Ball on Route 120?
Also Spear Pillar is actually a good place to train Pokemon up to level 50, but hearing the Organ music all the time is going to get annoying.

Yeah, I missed the Light Ball. Good call, I'll pick that up at some point.
I could grind there, I guess. Good call. I just hate grinding in Pokemon because battles are so comparatively slow-paced vs. other JRPGs.
Oh no I meant for myself, you can't get to the Sky Pillar til Post Game. I'd stick to Victory Road, maybe you can turn off the animations to make it go faster.

Oh crap, right. In Emerald you had access before post-game, so I was thinking of that. You could actually catch Rayquaza before E4. I remember always just using him as a kid to sweep the E4 haha
Yeah sorry about that, I'm just training a Weavile and Quilladin I'm raising.
Caught a Horsea and Seadra on the route outside of the Sky Pillar I missed getting.
Well sadly Groudon and Kyogre can't be traded to X/Y... if they have their elusive new move Origin Pulse (Kyogre) and Precipice Blades (Groudon) along with Blue and Red Orbs on them to use their Primal forms. Which is a major downer, I even think Rayquaza can't be traded if he has Dragon Ascent learned which gives him his Mega Form.
They can update the games, but they don't update X/Y to allow them to get some of the ORAS new moves and forms, also dislike not being able to trade Pokemon with HM moves on, so I hope they correct this in the feature and give us back Trainer Customization with more features. I liked that in X/Y.
But I do like ORAS as well, just wish there was more to it.
I honestly miss the Battle Maison, even with Trainer Rematches the Battle Maison made it really easy to make money.

PS: What image hosting sites do you guys use for your Avatar pictures? For some reason Photobucket doesn't work and gives me this Cat pic.
I use Imageshack, but I pay for it. Other people use Imgur.
And that is a bioluminescent Drowzee with translucent skin.
Oh and you know what really sucks with ORAS, not being able to use the Item Finder under water.

Weird, but cool looking Drowzee. You plan on doing Hypno next in the same style?
Also thank you Quickman on the Imgur site for images. Finally my Avatar Picture is set!
I plan to. Right now, I'm focusing on the Drowzee. It came from Ringman's dream, which I posted in the dreams thread.

U KIN DEWIT WAIRY I BELEEB IN U
You know what I really don't understand about ORAS, Gym Leader's having a Trainer's Eye entry but no Gym rematches. I mean it was the same in the original Ruby and Sapphire, but it still bugs me.
Hey, what would two more team members should I go for my these 4 Pokemon for my ideal team:
Charizard (Fire-Flying)
Lucario (Fighting-Steel)
Sableye (Ghost-Dark)
Gardevoir (Psychic-Fairy)
Not sure who to pick, and seeing there's Mega Evolved Pokemon now I was thinking two more to fill the gap that can use Mega Forms too like Aerodactyl (Rock-Flying Type, right?). Hmm... perhaps Aerodactyl as well.
I'm going with both a Competitive Team for online battles and a Friendly Team for in-game battles versions of both of these 6 Pokemon so lots of breeding for the Competitive one.
Any suggestions guys?
I've got a Milotic that fills in the water gap pretty damn good. Garchomp takes the dragon slot but I'm not sure if you need that.
Gardy's my mega so no concern about that, but if you want Aerodactyl, that's viable too imo.
Maybe a Swampert or Blastoise?
Hmm...
Milotic
Garchomp
Swampert
Blastoise
Aerodactyl
Good choices and funny enough I had a Blastoise on my old team with Rhyperior as well. I could have Blastoise once more on my team, but was hoping to mix it up a bit. I'll have to look around to see what I decided to do first.
Having a Dragon-Type is good as well, though being weak to Dragon, Ice, Fairy-Type is a disadvantage so having a Dragon-Type with resistance to Fairy-Type would be handy.
Not sure on Swampert with his 4x weakness to Grass-Type moves though he is tanky a bit. With Mega Evolution I was thinking having Charizard take on the Fire-Dragon Type slot, thought Garchomp is powerful as I had trouble with him in Diamond/Pearl/Platinum.
Then again Aerodactyl has the fastest Mega Pokemon in the game and his Mega Form is beastly too I hear.
Though having a Water-Type like Milotic is nice to fill the gap, but it's a Pure Water Type. Hoping for some Dual Type Pokemon to help cover the field a bit.

What were you trying to hatch again for a Shiny? Do you have an Overseas Ditto to help increase the rate of getting a Shiny via an egg? Though trying to get a Shiny with perfect IVs... whew... good luck on that.
He's got a Japanese Timid Trace Ralts from my batch of foreign Pokemon. The current challenge is getting a male for femboy purposes.

I trained up my Female Ralts and Shiny Beldam I ended up with so many training bags that I maxed out. The next Pokemon I'm training will be an Eevee that will be an Umbreon so I can get rid of them.
I've gotten a female Ralts in ever pokemon game I play now, it's become my favorite one of the bunch. Can I change from Machop to Ralts if we ever do another pokemon trainer rp? XD
If we ever do go for it, but I really don't want to do another Pokemon RP.
Aw oh well. XD
Though you might be able to work it into Mana-verse or Wilypocalypse along with that Machop somehow if you want. Heck if you want I can get that running in Wilypocalypse right now no problem.
After the big space battle I'll be open for any plot stuff actually, got plans to get rid of some of her more overpowered stuff from the adventures.
Okay then.
We could do another Pokemon RP. If you don't want to join, Sakura, then don't. But, don't discourage those who want an RP.
Just because you don't want one doesn't mean that we won't some day have one.
I want another Pokemon RP.
Fair enough.
After some thought, maybe the next RP could be a Mystery Dungeon RP. We'd have random dungeon generation. Ringman expressed interest in joining that.
As long as someone else Dungeon Masters I'm game.
That sounds like a good idea to me.
I could do the DMing. I'm thinking of using Dungeon Plungin' rules for it, because they're easy to convert. Everything aside from the plot and character actions are randomly generated.
Going to use Dick Celebi? :P
Tsunlebi and Dickalgia. 8D
Though, I'm debating on using Wally or Obie (the translucent glowing shiny). Obie would be very useful in caves.
"[parasitic bomb], it's dark in here... Send the Drowzee in, first!"
As I was curious I check if Pokemon could be Shiny in the Mystery Dungeon series and other than a plot Celebi and Ho-Oh there are none. Not surprised really. But eh I say Wally would make more sense since you can use a Fire, Electric type or whatever else for caves.
Wally's also a shiny. I has two. :3
And even if they games don't have shinies doesn't mean we can't have shinies.
Fully aware he was shiny, like I said it was more of a curiousity. Besides he'll be plot important not an NPC so he can be shiny. 8D
I never played the MD pokemon games what would I need to know?
They are roguelike dungeon crawlers with random map generation. Characters have to be fed.
If you've played any roguelike, the mechanics are pretty much the same (toned down for a younger audience).
As for the lore usually the Protagonist is a Human that has turned into a Pokemon, meets a Pokemon that will become their partner, and they join a Guild that does things from odd jobs to rescuing other Pokemon. Eventually weird [parasitic bomb] and disasters happen and the reason the Protagonist turns into a Pokemon is revealed to prevent that disaster.
Something like that.
Ah okay, I played the Chocobo Dungeon games so I know the genre.
Ah I forgot since Ralts are practically defenseless when they are born Sakura is going to have to lend Blue some TMs for the Ralts.
I can't remember what skill they start with. XD
Just Growl, and as spoilers the Ralts will probably start as an Egg that Sakura's Gardevoir laid after doing stuff with Zeta's Gallade. Hench why I can give it to Blue whenever you want.
Sounds good.
Ringman's sending me some RP systems that he thinks will work for a Mystery Dungeon RP. It's like what I planned to do, but with less numbers to worry about. There will be some checks and balances in place, and the veto system from the Mana Verse. Once I get that stuff, I'll drop it into the General RP thread.
He's thinking of joining in, but he works late and a lot. He doesn't have a whole lot of time and can really only post on the weekends.
Seems just fine to me.
*locks Darkrai outside*
So I'm a trainer and I control the pokemon then?
If we do a Mystery Dungeon RP, there wouldn't be any Trainers, so you'd be the Pokemon.
You talking about Mystery Dungeon? If you are then no you're a human who turned into a Pokemon, so in essence you are a Pokemon. In Pokemon Mystery Dungeon the Human is transported to a World with only Pokemon. Guess I should have mentioned that.
I'm calling dibs on Quilava right now.
Just thought you should know.
For our RP, we don't even need to include the human-transformed-into-a-Pokemon element. Just have Pokemon.
Yeah that would probably be a good idea.
Can I call Ralts still?
Yeah you can.
I'll be a Weavile! 8D
... Or a Dark-type in general. XD

If you are a Weavile I expect you to be the most flamboyant player in the RP since Weavile has the girliest mannerisms I've ever seen.
I claim either Wally the shiny Hypno or Obie the freaky glowing Drowzee. 8D
As an NPC, I want either a male Gothitelle or a male Lopunny. Because femboy~
Male Lopunny as Shop keeper!
As long as it isn't a creepy pasta Hypno. ;^;
Don't worry I'm pretty sure she won't.
Quote from: Blue Valkyrie on August 19, 2015, 05:33:53 AM
As long as it isn't a creepy pasta Hypno. ;^;
Wally is a sweet babu. He has Down Syndrome.
Obie... not sure. He's hairless, translucent, and glows. Haven't decided on a personality, but he's pretty much mute and friendly enough.
Oh wait if there is a Male Lopunny Femboy as a Shop Keeper he should be Shiny since Shiny Lopunny has pink fur.
Methinks I'll use Wally, as he's pretty much figured out in terms character. Obie, not so much.
Not to mention Obie came from a Creepy Pasta like dream anyway.
Only problem with Wally is that his Down Syndrome causes hip problems, and when he first appeared, he was wheelchair-bound.
You can probably omit certain things to make him less physically disabled.
Yeah, he'll be able to walk, but have reduced speed.
Yeah that should work, besides Drowzees aren't fast in the first place and would be just as capable in a fight since they fure psychic blasts and what not.
Wally is a Hypno. Obie is a Drowzee. I might still find a use for Obie, but until they're fleshed out, they may stay as a NPC at most. Obie is mute, anyway.
Anywho, we should continue this discussion in the General RP thread.
To get things back on track here... Super Mystery Dungeon is set to launch next month and will have StreetPass and local WiFi functionality.
I evolved the Shiny Beldum and the Ralts is close to Evolving.
I think my hunt for a shiny Ralts is hit by the same bump as in my X.
... The dreaded multiple-of-4. D:
What do you mean, I think this is the first I heard of it.
Well, in my X, when I was trying to hatch a Shiny Ralts, I had caught 3 shinies prior. So the Masuda method took a LONG time to work, 1000+ iirc.
Now, in my OR, I'm currently trying to hatch another shiny Ralts. This time, I also have 3 shinies prior (1 caught Wailmer, and 2 hatched Ralts). And this one, as of my last count here, broke the 800 Eggs mark, when my previous 2 hatches were kind.
I think it's just my luck, but my evidence is pretty conclusive for me. D:
Oh I see, well I haven't run into any Shinies in AS yet, mine were either gotte from Wonder Trade or Events.
I've only hatched one shiny, found two, and the rest were from Wonder Trade.
Nearly finished my second run of X, and you know what--I know the various enemy teams were never meant to be deep or taken all that seriously but Team Flare? Worst baddie team by far.
Lysandre claims to want to get rid of all the evil in the world so he hires an army of egotistical psychopaths who don't seem to care their boss is about try and murder the entire population of the world outside their group? So his big plan is to restart the world with the only survivors being essentially theifs and rufians--people who embody the worst elements of humanity that he claims to despise. I miss fighting the pokemon mafia--I really do. :\
Back to continuing my Alpha Sapphire run, Team Flare's stupidity has made me appreciate the two teams from that generation more. XD
Honestly I think the point is Lysandre is a hypocrite, or at least was too insane to think things through. That and maybe with less people to eat up reasources laws would be stricter or maybe he figured with a smaller population the amount of fighting wouldn't destroy the world?
I don't know it's weird, even Team Galactic made more sense than Flare and a lot of the grunts had plenty of screws loose.
What kinda annoyed me more than anything was that NO ONE POINTED THIS HYPOCRISY OUT, everyone acted like Lysandre was some misunderstood tragic hero with extreme methods. He was as you said just an entitled nutcase who thought he was better than everyone else.
His claims of pollution and over population? Where in any of the pokemon regions have we ever really seen this? 90% of the pokemon world thus far seems lush with only small pockets of humanity living here and there and not really having any major negative impact outside of a few areas. Even the biggest cities seem rather clean and hardly draining of what resources we know exist in the world. If anything the world of pokemon seems like a paradise.
I obviously thought about this more than game freak did. 8D
Yeah admittedly while the plot was there the writing really wasn't. Like I said Galactic, and Plasma of course, made a lot more sense.
I feel like the one giant guy would have made a batter villain for this story, he would have at least lived long enough to have seen the worst elements of humanity over Lysandre who was some rich guy who had never done any hard work in his life from the sounds of it. 8D
Eh I don't know I think it's because he's rich, and the descendent of AZ's brother and thus of royal blood he thinks he can decide/and do things like that.
The way I see Lysandre is someone who thinks he can do everything and be right, with 'good intentions', but since he couldn't find a solution to the 'problem ' he described he decided to blow everything up. I mean he's threatening, but not well written.
Nothing too special in tonight's Wonder Trade extravaganza. An Armaldo, Bouffalant, Meowstic, a Gurdurr (which evolved), and a Gourgeist. Still have the Bouffalant and the Meowstic, but I traded the rest a while ago.
I helped another person with their Dex and gave them a Chingling for their Italian Hypno. I will feed him Puffs until he's chubby and I shall call him Fat Tony.

What kinda annoyed me more than anything was that NO ONE POINTED THIS HYPOCRISY OUT, everyone acted like Lysandre was some misunderstood tragic hero with extreme methods. He was as you said just an entitled nutcase who thought he was better than everyone else.
His claims of pollution and over population? Where in any of the pokemon regions have we ever really seen this? 90% of the pokemon world thus far seems lush with only small pockets of humanity living here and there and not really having any major negative impact outside of a few areas. Even the biggest cities seem rather clean and hardly draining of what resources we know exist in the world. If anything the world of pokemon seems like a paradise.
I obviously thought about this more than game freak did. 8D
Villains have never been the Pokemon franchise's strong point IMHO. Since Gen4 my main interest in the evil teams has been how badass their theme music would be, and Team Flare delivered on that if nothing else.
If we are looking at teams rather than individuals, though, I'll pass on the entire main series and say that the franchise's best villainous group is Cipher.
Ugh Gale of Darkness left such a hook too with Ardos but will people not liking double battles I doubt we'd get another Colosseum game. Cypher is just pure nightmare fuel.
Still Ghetsis is still probably my favorite of the Villians by virtue of being a complete bastard with Cyrus being a close second and Lysandre being third despite being poorly written. I wish Cyrus had a bit more background as to why he wanted to [tornado fang] up the world, I mean beside him being a complete sociopath, and I hope the inevitable Diamond and Pearl remakes expand on that.
Though I wonder how they will make Galactic's costumes even more ridiculous than they already are.
Give them opaque space helmets. *nods*
Eh maybe some visors like Lysandre's hot scientists.
You know another thing I didn't like about X and Y were how weak the side characters and rival were except Xerosic and maybe Shauna, even though I found her too cutesy at times. Sina and Dexio in particular really awkward, Tierno was kind of flat, Trevor was boring, and the rival was all over the place. The hot scientists could have definitely used more screen time.
I believe Z will refine them a bit more. My concern was how forced the final arc of the Flare plot was thrust into your face from nowhere. The previous Flare encounters just didn't mesh up well to that point.
Yeah I agree and the fact that you had to go to 2 different places plus the amount of battles really didn't jive with me either.

Been hatching some Eevees today, hoping to get a Female with the same IVs as the father and evolve her into an Umbreon.
I've been wanting to work on Mystery Dungeon sprite edits, but my niece's party is today and I have to be social.
...screw, I'm gonna drink beer and play Pokemon.
I missed the part where Gardevoir was announced for Pokken. That's...actually pretty cool. Still wish Mewtwo and/or Dragonite were in it, but oh well, it looks pretty badass as-is.
Yeah it's pretty varied.

So a question about Cherrim's Fairy Gift, does it only work in Double and Triple Battles or can it benefit in Single Battles as well?
Yep, only Doubles and Triples.
Figured as much.
Also started to Wonder Trade the Horde of Eevees I hatched, I decided to raise 2 of the 3 females I hatched so far into a Umbreon and Sylveon. I also think I might give Mean Look to the Umbreon, I admittedly wished that Umbreons could learn Hypnosis, but then again I wouldn't even know how well Dream Eater would have benefited an Umbreon in the first place, especially with access to Moonlight.
Up to 701! Right now it's mostly raising Pokemon, getting Legendaries, trade evolutions, and hunting down a few that I missed.
Like Stantler. If anyone has a Stantler, I'll be back home Saturday and ready for it. If you've got Legendaries that you can bounce and time to help me do a couple trade evolutions, that'd be great, too.
Yeah I have a Stantler I can give you.

Bravo to the swift action. Bravo.
And at the very least, the two guys will be charged with unlawful possession of a firearm.
And banned from any competitions.
Hmm I just realized that I still don't know what kind of EV spread I want for the Umbreon, it's a Calm nature and I want it to have Toxic, Moonlight, Foul Play and Mean Look.
Up to 704 now. I'll put together a list of what I need later. Hopefully most are just stuff I need to raise and/or trade evolve. But, I think the bulk of what I need now are Legendaries.
And can a 3DS support more than one internet connection?
Yeah I think it can support up to 3, just go into settings and try to set it up.
EDIT: My friend who is very critical about Pokemon in general helped me out with the EV spreads for the Umbreon (basically said what I was thinking 252 HP, and 128 for both Defenses) and I decided I'll teach it Heal Bell over Mean Look. Now I just have to wait for 8 PM to evolve her. Thank goodness my game went back to normal after I changed the time and Monday Vitamin sales.

Oh, and.... avoid the comments section at all costs.
Yeah my brother still think they are still idiots who were making a stupid joke, since one of them was a hunter and gun aficionado and the facebook page they were part of is notorious for being "uncensored" and the members post the most stupid, outlandish and inappropriate things since they think it's cool and would make them more popular with the group.
Until we get a confirmation from an interrogation we won't know for sure, but either reason is a possibility anyway.
Considering that they brought the weapons with them, methinks it's a bit more than empty internet threats.
It's a sad state of affairs when gamers aren't even safe to play Pokemon.
Yeah like I said either is very likely I'm just neutral about the why, I mean whetther it was a poor stupid joke or with intent, until we get more updated facts but yeah it's a very sad thing indeed.
The Daily Beast (http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/08/23/boston-pokemon.html) gives us more information regarding the online threats. The two were part of a group called Mayhem Pokemon Crew and threatened violence against those they battled.
And there we go, I had a feeling it was with intent.
Anyway I found a Mirage Spot with a Vullaby.
Very appalled by the perceived thinking of these individuals...
Pokemon should be enjoyed by all ages!
I have my Umbreon, oh she's so cute.
I got a Stantler off of GTS, along with a Reshiram (sacrificed the Wonder Trade shiny Rayquaza for it) and a Mesprit.
I got a shiny female Combee! O3O
Been tweaking some of the "filler" moves on my team. Apparently, high critical does not count as an additional effect for the purpose of Sheer Force. Sableye is not getting much use out of Fake Out. And as long as I'm still battling on X/Y, Mewtwo needs either an Ice or Electric move to deal with Yveltal.

.... avoid the comments section at all costs.
...I don't even want to know. I support private ownership, but only by people who aren't out of their [tornado fang]ing mind. A video game event is no reason to make threats with a weapon, nor does "it's on the internet" excuse you from responsibility.
Ah interesting to know since I have a Sheer Force Totodile that I need to train.
As for gun ownership considering my Dad has a ton of rifles in the garage it's safe to say that I'm not completely against guns since he used to use them for target shooting. I never touched any of them myself, I don't know how many he has anyway.
I thought you all might appreciate this story. So there's a player in the Yankees minor league system named Aaron Judge. He currently plays for the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders, and he's one of the Yankees' best prospects. Someone on another blog I went to accidentally spelled his name Aron Judge. Which prompted me to ask if anyone could photoshop a Judge Dredd helmet onto a pic of Aron. Which led to this...

Female too even... A shiny Vespiquen...
The first thing that I'll do once I get out of this "chalet"...
IS TO CONTINUE HATCHING FOR ANOTHER FEMBOY SHINY RALTS 8U
I just had a random thought that if Raikou talks to a person via telepathy.....he would have an Irish accent......
Well, I raised my shiny Combee into an orange Vespiquen.
Her name is bees?

Yeah, that's enough to make me wish they'd bring the Petit Cup back. 8)
She also has great stats. Outstanding potential, 6IV, stats can't be beat. Really, the only downside is her name is bees?
Well I decided to catch the Johto Legendary beasts since my shiny Metagross is at a high enough level with Hold Back. I already caught Raikou but he was kind of a [sonic slicer] since I didn't use a Status Ailment on him.
Also he's kind of boring in Amie, he could have been a freaking Lol cat but nope he's stoic as [tornado fang].
EDIT: Entei is also stoic as [tornado fang], and only took a few Ultra Balls. Good thing too since was pretty damn powerful.
EDIT 2: And Suicune is once again as stoic as [tornado fang] if not the most stoic as [tornado fang]. Also eats the slowest and I caught the guy in a Great Ball though I wasted 10 Ultra Balls and 5 Net Balls before I tried the Great Ball. Think I'll go after the Genie next.
I just got a shiny Gogoat through Wonder Trade. It's awesome looking! Gold horns.
Accidentally ran from Thunderus, going to try again.
EDIT: Caught it in 1 Ultra Ball. Guess I'll go for Latios now.
Kinda wish I had a Thundurus that was not nicknamed and native to Gen6. Trouble is, my current one is pretty solid in terms of Nature/IVs, so finding one that will also match it in competition is tricky.
Still enjoying ripping apart people who just throw random legends/megas into Doubles online. Watching my Mewtwo beat down Arceus just doesn't get old.
I need someone to lend me a Tornandus sometime so I can get Landourus.
If you have a Thundurus you don't plan to use, I can swap my Tornadus for it.
Thing is I need both on my team to get Landorus. Also apparently I didn't need both Ho-Oh and Lugia for the 3 Johto Beasts.
And I finally caught Latios, it took a lot of balls too but I got him in a Luxury Ball. He must like the velvet lining.
EDIT: Caught Virizion, she took a little while but I got her. Sacred Sword does a ton of damage when she maxed out her Attack with Swords Dance. Probably be a good idea to bring a Ghost type with you for the Muskedeers.
Shiny Gogoat confirmed for classiest shiny~
So I took Cobalion to Amie and discovered he seems to have buck teeth. Or at least derpy teeth. Who knew Cobalion had it in him to have a derpy aspect to him......
Chain-traded a Rayquaza for Kyurem for Deoxys. Then, I traded Tornadus for Thundurus. Up to 710!
So I went back to White 2 to get Reshiram with the Master Ball and then I decided to get Kyurem the hard way. It's a nightmare to say the least.
EDIT: And then he killed himself. [tornado fang] it I'll try again later.
Anyone have an Uxie? Also, I might need the following bounces: Arceus, Shaymin, Manaphy, Darkrai, Keldeo. I'm not too concerned over Meloetta and Genesect, but if you have them and are willing to bounce, I'd be grateful.
Right now, I'm debating on what to deposit Deoxys for. What is Deoxys worth?
Deoxys would be worth any of those Legendaries except for Uxie.
I deposited Deoxys for Darkrai. Then I tried to chain-trade for an Uxie, but the Ho-Oh I grabbed was the wrong level. Not a total loss, as it's shiny~
Gave up Victini for a shiny Arceus.
Hey Quckie try going to Sycamore once you get Uxie, most of the event Legendaries such as Shaymin and the like aren't needed to get the Shiny Charm.
http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Event_Pok%C3%A9mon (http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Event_Pok%C3%A9mon)
Sycamore didn't give me the charm. Do I need to catch every Pokemon, or just see them?
Need to catch everyone except the Event Legendaries for the National Dex unlike the normal Region Dex.
EDIT: [tornado fang]ing Azelf took forfuckingever. I thought I was going to have more trouble with Uxie but no [tornado fang]ing Azelf took nearly all my Dusk and Timer Balls.
EDIT 2: Dialga took 1 Ultra Ball.
EDIT 3: Giratina hits really hard, but he didn't take too long to catch. I have to wait til Saturday to get Terrakion and I still need a Tornandus to get Landorus but that's every Legendary I can catch for now.
Now if you'll excuse me I'm going to feed Giratina some cupcakes.
I need to bounce five Pokemon. I need Slowking (got a Slowpoke with King's Rock ready to bounce), Slurpuff (Swirlix with Whipped Dream ready to bounce), Vanillish, Vaniluxe, and Aurorus. Is anyone on here able to help me with that?
I can probably do that tomorrow, I'm just worn out over the fact that I binge caught so many Legendaries.
I'm not sure I'll be available tomorrow.
Well whenever you are I can probably help.
Also if anyone has a Tornandus they can lend me so I can ge Landorus please do so. I'm also pretty close to getting the Hoenn Dex completed too, perhaps I should evolve that Ryhorn to Rydon so I can get a Ryperior.
I gave away my Tornadus a while ago. Currently bugging PB to see if he can help.
Maybe I can bug Wily if he's far enough in OR or maybe he has a Black version one.
EDIT: Jeez I have 5 Protectors and 3 Reaper Cloths in Y.

Well I won the Master Coolness Contest, I used my Shiny Blaziken from SS to do it since he had some really good moves for it.
My first shiny hunt with the charm will be for a PANK Murkrow. bees? has Sweet Scent, so... HORDE CHAINING~
Yup definitely the best way to start.
I got a Tornadus for a Meowth, don't know why they wanted a Meowth but I gave them a Meowth. He also came with a Life Orb.
EDIT: ......He's also Shiny.......
This isn't limited to this game but how do you grind more effectively with your lower level Pokemon? It seems that when I catch a Pokemon I got to grind it or release it because I do not have time to grind any of it. I am not doing a Nuzlocke challenge but how do I grind any sort of Pokemon from any generation?
Rematch Trainers if it's possible, Exp Share, Lucky Eggs. It's tedious in any game that's not gen 6th but that's really what you have to do.
Well, I grind the lazy way. EXP Share is on, the Pokemon I'm raising is holding a Lucky Egg, and is thrown out into battle first, before being swapped out. This way, they get double the full amount of EXP per battle.
I also grind in the Battle Chateau. Constantly. And I splurge on Rare Candies and Rare Soda and I raise the lazy way for those I need Dex info on.
If you're grinding up a friendship-evolution, I used a Soothe Bell, Colorful Berry Drink, Massage, bike riding, and lots of battling. Raised up a Swoobat in about an hour.
Yeah but that only works in Gen 6, I think he might still be training in Gen 4.
EDIT: I caught Landorus, only Terrakion is left. Also since the Tornadus is most likely pure hax, especially with 6 perfect IVs and the Shininess, I put it in the GTS for a Keldeo and hope I get lucky.
EDIT 2: I got a Keldeo for the hax Tornadus.

Where in ORAS is Ash?
It's a Hack, Ash never shows up in any of the games. They just reskined the rival, they also reskined the player charater as Red.
Bah! I was about to start plowing through AS just to find him, too! So much for that. Guess I'll just go shiny hunting...
Yeah the games and anime never intersect other than a reference here or there except Yellow, which I honestly personally don't treat as game canon, and I honestly prefer the continuity seperate for various reasons.
There's also the occasional events in Japan where you get Ash's and friend's Pokemon, his Pikachu is always a Naughty Nature, with their current moves in the anime but other than that they have very little to do with each other.

There's no easy way out of it, only Gen 6 has a shortcut in the Exp. Share.
If you love your Pokemon... YOU MUST LEARN TO GRIND :W
I don't understand why you'd release it if you don't want to grind it. Let it rot in the PC like I do! 8D
Pretty much what I do, I don't really release anything unless I'm tight on space, which is never. And that was before Wonder Trading was a thing.
Yeah, I haven't even gotten to full PC yet. Got about sixty boxes in the Bank, though! 8D
My OR boxes are completely full. >.>
And I used about 85 boxes in Bank. <.<
I think you need to start wonder trading and GTSing some of those Ralts Doc.
NO
I NEED MORE BATTLE POINTSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
That's how I get my BP. Banking all of the Zigzagoon and Wurmple I get off Wonder Trade.
Maybe I'll just put all the fully evolved Pokemon I won't use in the Bank and hope I get the BP for AS. I'm also wondering if I should train a Gallade with a different Nature.
Also it's an Eeveepalooza right now.

It is gonna take me hours. Grinding lower level Pokemon is gonna take a Lucky Egg or more EXP Shares.
I see no problems in that. 8U
I never found grinding gruelling at all.
It's an RPG, grinding will always take hours unless the game was built around you getting enough experience with just going from point A to point B like Chrono Trigger or Paper Mario and Pokemon is certainly not built that way.

I played those games but then Paper Mario and Chrono Trigger were a lot more 'lenient' in regards to grinding.
That's what I just said......
Here's what I do:
Get three low-level Pokemon and give them each a Lucky Egg (since I only have three).
Make lead Pokemon a lvl100.
Go to the Battle Chateau and fight Audino.
You'll have them leveled in no time. I was able to level a dozen Pokemon an evening. That's maybe three or four hours of gameplay, total.
You can also do this with friend-evolutions. Soothe Bell, Colorful Berry Drink, Massage, bike trip, battle for a while. I had a Swoobat evolved in an HOUR.
Gen 6 indeed made grinding a lot easier with the Battle Chateau.
... Now back to hatching...
For AS I just rematch trainers since there is no Chateau. I hope in the inevitable DP remakes they put a Chateau like place where the Ribbon society and villa is.
EDIT: So I just remembered that I have a Surfing Pikachu in my Pearl but since I have to delete Surf and the Move Reminder in ORAS can teach moves that Pokemon have learned regardless if the Pikacha can learn Surf again.
Use Platinum as a base, and bring back the Battleground.
One thing that I gripe about ORAS is the lack of Gym Leader rematches, but especially May/Brendan rematches.
With the Battleground, we can rematch the Sinnoh Leaders, and those IV Trainers.
Seriously having Gym and Rival rematches would make it so much better.

In X I always go to the three-star restaurant to grind. Lucky Egg, Exp. Boosting O-Power, send them out with a Protect TM and have their teammates wail on the opponents in a Triple Battle. It works fairly quickly, and also give a Luck Incense to your high-level lead, and you should be making money once you sell off the Balm Mushrooms you get at the end.

If you have a Thundurus you don't plan to use, I can swap my Tornadus for it.
You know I still have a spare GTSed Thundurus sitting in my PC, right? Crummy Nature, but you're more than welcome to keep it. Every time I see you online you're doing something else and I can't trade with you.
Also could have bounced a Tornadus to Sakura but it sounds like she's taken care of.
Yeah I was lucky enough to get a hax Tornandus then when I got Landorus I traded it for a Keldeo. I also caught Terrakion in 1 Ultra Ball yesterday after realizing he wasn't part Ground. Now I'm going to try, most likely in vain, to get a Meloetta for an extra Zekrom. I might change for Xerneas instead.
EDIT: Yeah I changed to Xerneas and got it because I noticed Thunderus had less Meloetta offers so I decided to use the extra Thunderus for that.
Also I seemed to have found a Secret Base that pays homage to Lt. Surge's gym with trash cans everywhere. However he needs a Guitarist, an Old Dude and a Swimmer since you can't be a Sailor and unfortunately his Pokemon don't match Surge's. They were HM slaves, but I'm still putting it into my favorites since that amuses me.

And remind me who you are on my list, again?
It seems my Hoenn Dex only needs a Roserade and Marshstomp to be completed, guess I know what I have to raise tomorrow.

i still haven't finished kalos dex even though i know it'd be [acid burst] easy at this point

I never finished a Region Dex before so you aren't alone. SS was particularly low when I checked it.
I got the diploma in platinum, so never again will I try

For AS I just rematch trainers since there is no Chateau.
Blissey super secret bases!! 8D
Hey at least it wasn't the Gen 3 Hoenn Dex.....the horror.
But yeah I haven't found a Blissey Secret Base yet, even then doesn't help with the money issue.
Money? I just rematch Gentleman Walter between Safari Zone and Lilycove with Prize Money Power and Amulet Coin
There are tons of Blissey base QR codes. I filled all the Secret Meadow and Secret Shore, so I can flute my way over from the Battle Resort
Thing is I spend a lot of money on the Monday Vitamin sale, Walter can only do so much. That and I'm still recovering on the binge catching of Legendaries. Seriously [tornado fang] you Azelf, just [tornado fang] you.

I should haul out X and actually start my shiny hunt.
Luckily I was able to afford the Vitamins I needed though I still need to breed that Electrike later. Admittedly I kind of want to breed a Shiny Staryu but don't have a Foreign one to help. Nor do I have a Foreign Torchic.
Do you have a foreign Ditto? I'll see if I have another, but I can't be too sure.
No I don't, and even if I did I'd at least need it to have a Perfect Speed IV.
I have a 6IV Japanese Ditto somewhere, and one names Att/Spat/Spd. I'll check Attspat Spud's nationality later on and see if it's foreign.
Dang that fanfare from completing the Hoenn Dex is amazing.
In the mean time something I've been thinking about is that when Gen 7 comes around I hope that the graphics are more vivid, some of the Pokemon look pretty washed out like Mr. Mime.

Timid Female, Proud of its power, with Synchronize.
Potential above average overall, with an IV of 30 in Att (Judge said it was fantastic).

Another thing I want for Gen 7 have another Pokemon or Mega Evolution with Dizzle since Mega Charizard Y has one, maybe Mega Empoleon with increased Speed. I'd like more options than Politoad or Kyogre.
Dizzle?
Tonight I shall be starting my shiny hunt.
Oh my bad, Drizzle. What it basically does is when you send the Pokemon out it automatically rains. It's basically the Rain version of Drought, Sand Stream and Snow Warning.
At first only Kyogre had it then they gave it to Politoed.
You forgot to mention they nerfed it in gen6. Making them automatic versions of Rain Dance, Sunny Day, Sandstorm, and Hail respectively.
Eh I felt it wasn't really necessary. *shrug*
IT IS
PERMANENT WEATHER WAS THE CRUX OF MANY A TEAM UP TO GEN5 :W
Yeah it seems like if I transfer my Surfing Pikachu up to gen 6 it wouldn't be able to relearn Surf, that's such a shame.

THIS. The fact that those two are my best options for a special attacking Dragonite's teammate really grinds my nerves.
Empoleon would be a joy. Having a Steel type to run alongside a Dragon helps a lot; my physical Dragonite is darn near married to Mega Lucario.
Seriously Empoleon would be perfect for such a Mega Evolution. I also really hope that the next Pokemon Bank event Pokemon are the Sinnoh Starters with hidden abilities, I want my Shell Armor Torterra.
Still going through the story but here is my team in Alpha Sapphire, some of these are going to be replaced as soon as possible. Just beat the Team Aqua Leader and go the meteorite, had the worst luck with confuse. o-O

Grimer Lv 23(Just in the party because I caught it and never removed it 8D )
Minimize
Secret Power
Mud Bomb
Sludge
Jeez everyone is using Treeko here huh. Anyway let us know when you want to trade to Evolve that Machoke. Also is the Cosplay Pikachu going to stay or go?
Ooo thanks I will want a Machamp at some point yes! The Cosplay Pikachu will go if I find a better lightning type--right now it's nice to have an ice type attack without the weaknesses that typically go with the type.
My true starter is Torchic in OR! Although I have all 3 starters in OR... AS was Mudkip. 8D
Also, keep that C-Pikachu! A Light Ball awaits her calling! 8D
Yeah Cosplay Pikachu actually isn't a bad choice since you can find a Light Ball in Route 120. Electrikes are also good since they can learn Fire Attacks like Flamethrower. You're also going to need a Water Type soon though.
If only Grimer/Muk can Surf...
IMAGINE FLOATING ON WATER ON A PILE OF POISONOUS SLUDGE
She could just get a Zigzagoon for Surf until she gets the Good rod on the other side of Mauville. Though you need something for Flannery.
Mmmm pollution surfing, but yeah I need a HM slave at some point. Oh this isn't going to be permanent but Muk just go traded out for a shiny Rayquaza--what the hell nintendo? 8D
Edit: LEVEL 70, WUT.
Yeah he ain't going to be listening to you for a while....but he can learn Surf.
Oh not going to use it, but at level 70 I don't think listening is an issue when it's going to one shot anything with any attack it uses randomly 8D
Yeah as long as he doesn't take a nap. 8D
Thanks for the Thundurus! 8D
And I was Wonder Trading with someone named ManMan who was requesting "Sqrutle Plase".
Sqrutle.
Yeah it's amazing how people don't know how to spell. -AC

Speaking of which I should really look for a Squirtle on the GTS, because Wonder Trading people hate their Chamanders.

Speaking of Gardevoir...
I dread the day that my nephew discovers Gardevoir and decides to look up images on Google.
Oh god yeah, though really there's plenty of other Pokemon that suffer from that as well. Ninetales comes to mind.
Female Trainers and Machoke/Machamp.
I don't even want to know considering Pokemon Amie.....
Don't forget Greninja! 8D
And Jynx! 8D
I just got Mewtwo through Wonder Trade.
AND HE'S GENTLE~
Well that certainly is lucky.
After about twenty horde encounters, I'm in a Murkrow horde encounter and whittling down the others for my PANK Murkrow!
Yay PANK PIMP Murkrow!
It's male, so while I'm chucking ball after ball at it, what should I name it? I'm thinking Giovanni.
Best Pimp name at the moment.
And currently on my team is my catcher Hypno. I'd switch out to him, but I reeeeaaaaallyyy doubt his Hypnosis would ever work.
Back to chucking balls...
Nah Hypnosis works on Dark Types, it's just the accuracy kind of sucks.
The Murkrow has Insomnia.
OF COURSE.
Well that kind of sucks. -AC
I'll be chucking balls for a while, it seems.
For the next time I recommend raising a Shroomish until Level 45 before evolving so it can learn Stun Spore and the almighty 100% Sleep inducing move Spore. Also give your Gardevoir or something Thunder Wave to cover all bases since Grass are imune to Powders but I don't know if Spore counts.
EDIT: Yeah Grass types are immune to Spore.
Caught the Murkrow.
(http://imageshack.com/a/img540/3198/bOuqYL.jpg)
Giovanni's stats are pretty meh. But, he's a PIMPIN' PANK.
Well yeah Murkrow alway sucked until Gen 4 came around.
I now have more confidence for when I begin my shiny Abra hunt.
Make to pack a Pokemon with Taunt and pray.
I intend to just chuck Quick Balls. Though, I do have three Master Balls, so if I see a shiny Abra, I'll just chuck a Master Ball. Guaranteed tear-free capture.
Oh better yet bring a Pokemon with Arena Trap or Shadow Tag abilities. That will prevent it from teleporting.
EDIT: Speaking of which are all the shinies you want Pink ones?

*twitch*
I have no idea what you are talking about! *spazz*
My precioussssssssssssss
It really is the source of all evil. I was losing my mind when shiny breeding. It took me so long because I had to take breaks between breeding runs because I was going to crack.
And then I got so discouraged and so depressed that I was afraid that when I did hatch a shiny, that I'd be like "meh" and not care.
And to think I went through that FOUR times, although 2 of them were pretty "painless" (hatching a shiny within 3 digit numbers).
And currently on my 5th (hopefully "painless") run now.
I guess I'm just a sucker for self-inflicted pain, and misery.
or I really turned mad from all dem hatching.
And this is why I will never try 8D
I'm glad my first baby shiny was hatched to much fanfare.
And my first horde chain shiny was pretty exciting. Easy, too! I think I went through at most twenty hordes, though I wasn't counting. I had to replenish my Hypno's Dazzling Gleam twice, and knowing the amount of PP I had left each time, plus the amount of PP from the horde prior to the shiny horde... 23 hordes.
Plus your Shiny Charm helped too. :3
So I have Horde shinies... Hatched shinies... Fishing (but not chain fishing) shinies... Wild shinies...
Only DexNav shinies, and PokeRadar shinies left to hunt! 8D
I got a Salac Berry, I better plant it now.
I'm getting swag off of the Global Link site. Trying to figure out the points system for Graffiti Eraser and Balloon Popping, but I've managed to get some cool swag.
All the games are bloody random whether it be score or the prize you get, you can do amazing but only get the crap prize or do terrible and get an awesome prize. I only really play the Balloon Pop game since it has evolutionary items.
One constant is that in Graffiti Eraser, Legendaries are always worth 50 points.
Gotcha, also it seems the mine cart game and the crane game is actually not random though I think the prizes still are.
I'm testing a theory that the faster balloons that stay onscreen for a small amount of time (that drift off to the side) are worth more, because if I hit only those, I'm getting 10 points each.
Yeah I tested that before as well but the result was never consistent, I sometimes got like 1's or 5's. Trust me nothing you do in that game will make the score better and the score doesn't matter because the prizes are random. It's all up to chance.

Eventually, they will.
I'm still waiting for my Master Ball from them. 8U
Yeah I have all the Sun and Moon Stones I need, now I'm just getting Treasure, Berries, and Normal Items while seeing if I can get that Master Ball.
So I decided to evolve the Eevee Reaper gave me a while ago into a Galceon and try to see if she would be good for Contests since I don't really plan to ever use a Glaceon for Battle. Either that or train another yet another Florges for Beauty Contests.
EDIT: Glaceon won the Master Rank Beauty Contest, also since my Vulpix won the normal rank before it was able to jump to Super right away, guess it has to do with the fact that you only get a Ribbon for Master Rank.
EDIT 2: I got a Phany to win the Master Cute Contest. Combos work pretty well.

*One wants a lv 1-10 Gallade*
Ugh they really need to fix the GTS so impossible [parasitic bomb] like that doesn't happen next gen. -AC

EDIT 5: HOLY [parasitic bomb] SHINY GERMAN NINTALES! She's Timid and lv 100 with 6 IVs so I'm not sure if she's hacked though it does have that pentagon on it and she was egg hatched. Either way I'm keeping her.

I personally would go for Modest, but then I'm not into special walls, so it's an easier decision for me.
And here, have a Mewtwo Zoid. Because that should totally be a thing.

Also the pic needs fixing.
Pic works fine on my end.
And I adopted another Hypno from GTS. She's Japanese, so I call her Sleepette, and she has Thunder Punch!
Yeah he fixed it after I posted, personally the zoid doesn't look enough like Mewtwo.
Also started to hatch a mass amount of Bunearies until I get one that has decent IVs and no Klutz because [tornado fang] Klutz. The Alpha one had 5IV's Encore, Switcharoo, Fake Out and Ice Punch as egg moves. I'll only keep the latter 2.

The hatching of Bunearies continue while I grow some berries. I got a Petaya and Salac berry from the Ranger in my Secret Base and an Enigma berry from that Shiny German Nintales.
EDIT: I have so many Tirtougas and Cranidos in my PC, I really need to evolve a Cranidos and choose a Tirtouga for breeding purposes and Wonder Trade the rest.
EDIT 2: So hey remember that theory about Shiny Pokemon attracting predators? Well I've been looking for this comic for a while and finally found it. Now prepare for feels.

So, last night, I dreamt that I had forgotten I left my 3DS on for days, and when I opened it, I saw that I was in the middle of a sextuple battle.
That's right. Six-on-six. And you could have another six on-hand.
Thankfully, the game was in tutorial mode, so it was giving me all sorts of instructions. And then if Pokemon used a certain move for long enough, they "mastered" it and you got a ribbon. My Marill and Raichu mastered some moves, but when I was given the option to reward my Raichu, I couldn't read the menu and accidentally gave him Herbs. The cutscene showed him opening a package, and then giving me a look of disappointment.
And Mewtwo was carrying the entire team, and I had to use a Max Potion on him at one point, as the other team were about to torture him! O_O
Oh, and I was getting my ass kicked by a Lopunny who dressed as a Scrafty.
Was Mewtwo like... Literally carrying your whole team? o_O
And a Lopunny as a Scarfty...
Well, everyone else was underleveled, so Mewtwo was doing all the work.
I literally imagined Mewtwo putting the rest of your team on his shoulders, haha. XD
So I got 18 Enigma Berries, 42 Salac Berries and 7 Petaya Berries. Now I have a Kee Berry I need to plant.
EDIT: I got a Turtwig with Shell Armor through Wonder Trade! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
EDIT 2: I also got a PANK Sneasel but my Weavile is much better. I'll evolve her and use her for stuff.
I went on a fruitless shiny Abra hunt, then took a break and Wonder Traded for a while. Got a shiny Onix that evolved. It purdy~
I randomly got a Tyranitar with perfect IV's, guess I can use him for breeding.
I got a shiny Vaporeon named Julie-Su.
Your Shiny luck has indeed two-fold'd!
And just got a shiny Slowbro!
MEGA-EVOLVE IT 8U
Also got a shiny Tangrowth, but I sent it back. Not a real big fan of Tangrowth, and the shiny version is rather meh. It's fully-leveled, and I'd much rather someone else have it.
... Seriously, if only I don't need to work at this current time. XD
I do have other shinies. Still got that shiny Slugma. Recently got a shiny Honedge. I've gotten enough shinies now to consider trading them.
But, I'm going to bed.
Aw I think Tangrowths are interesting.
Anyway it seems that Gamefreak is going to announce some new partner companies soon and talk about future business plans.

What kind of other shinies do you have, I may be interested in some.
I'll write up a list tomorrow. Going to bed now.
If you can when you make the list include the Nature any Perfect IV's and Egg Moves they have.
There's supposed to be some kind of Pokemon announcement at the conference.
http://youtu.be/z4pyT0r66ks (http://youtu.be/z4pyT0r66ks)
Not sure if it's only mobile games.
Yeah it seems they're doing something with mobile phones and AR that involves catching and battling Pokemon.
I hope they have more news on the hard-boiled detective game.
The Pikachu one, not Looker.
Seriously that Pikachu Detective game seriously dropped off the face of the earth.
[yt]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lKUwVYUKii4[/yt]
Not gonna lie, this will probably consume a good part of my life! XD
Seems they took the Google April Fools Day Joke and expanded it ten fold.
Honestly, it's a brilliant idea.
Indeed, it certainly has me curious about how it'll connect to the main games like it said on Serebii.
The more I think about this game, the more I realize that this is going to make them [tornado fang]ing billions.
I'm slightly skeptical of it myself until I get more info but it's definitely interesting. While it's a cool idea it doesn't make me go 'OMG I WANT THIS NOW, TAKE MY MONEY!' just yet. Then again I don't use my Phone for gaming so that's my bias right there.
I just really need more info about this.
EDIT: The app will be free with in app purchases.
Do you realize what this is???
IT'S REAL LIFE POKEMON!!!
Or at least the closest thing we might ever get to it. What this trailer is telling me is that I can walk around NYC, or walk around wherever I'm travelling to, and there will be Pokemon hiding in the bushes, or in my alleyway, or in the Hudson River, and I can battle them, capture them, and trade them on the spot. It combines all the addictive qualities of a regular Pokemon game with the sheer addictive qualities of smartphones. In-app store purchases could be a detriment, but that doesn't seem to stop people much these days.
Argh... I guess this gives me a reason to get a iPhone/Galaxy...
Yes I understand that but at the same time I again don't use my phone as a gaming device.
Don't get me wrong I probably will try it but I don't know how long I would keep with it since I drop mobile game really quick.
I literally never use my phone as a gaming device. If this game does what it says it can do, I'll start for this. Especially considering that it can connect to the main game in some way.
Yeah I am certainly curious about that, though I hope there's more than just Gen 1 Pokemon. And I also hope there's a way to interact with the Pokemon like Pokemon Amie but better and more expansive.
Considering I live in Unova, there might be Gen 5 Pokemon here!! 8D
I want a Zigzagoon, I like my Ziggys so much. And Swinubs. And Joltiks. And Umbreons. And Torchics. And Arons. And Shinxes. And Turtwigs. And Panchams. And Weaviles, the girliest Pokemon ever especially since I have a PANK one now.
Basically I think a lot of Pokemon are cute.

OMG IMAGINE IF I CAN RIDE MY BIKE IN REAL LIFE AND HATCH POKEMON EGGS ON MY PHONE!!!
Hope you have a Magmar or something to make them hatch faster. But yeah egg hatching would be a great way for people to get their daily steps in, I certainly would like that.
WE'LL FINALLY BE ON THE ROAD TO VIRIDIAN CITY!!!!! 0v0

I have no idea where Gettysburg would be located in the Pokemon world.
We'd have to wait until they make another place close to Unova since Unova is specifically New York and parts of Jersey.
Just saw the Pokemon GO video.

Apparently, Pokemon GO is free-to-play.
No thanks.

YES!! JOIN ME, QUICKIE!!!
I just got a shiny Delibird!
Sorry, it's not for trade. I'm gonna hold onto it for Ringman's dream underdog team.
Later on this evening, I'll write up a list of the shinies I'm willing to trade. Some of them I started raising and grew attached.
Yeah that's fine, I wouldn't have wanted a Delibird anyway.
I almost feel bad because I traded a Poochyena, but a Poochyena isn't too bad a trade.
Yeah Poochyena for Delibird isn't too bad. Besides if they're like me they'll Wonder Trade the Poochyena for something else.
Okay, wrote up a list. I have a few Legendaries, but I'm not giving them up just yet. Others are promos, ones I caught, and ones gifted to me. Most of the ones I'll part with came fro GTS.
Ludicolo, lvl100 6IV
Mild, Swift Swim
-Ice Beam
-Hydro Pump
-Hidden Power
-Energy Ball
Slugma, lvl15 1IV (SpDef)
Quirky, Flame Body
-Rollout
-Rock Throw
-Harden
-Incinerate
Froslass, lvl100 6IV
Timid, Cursed Body
-Ice Beam
-Taunt
-Destiny Bond
-Shadow Ball
Steelix, lvl1 6IV
Relaxed, Sturdy
-Stealth Rock
-Heavy Slam
-Thunder Fang
-Rock Blast
Alakazam, lvl18 1IV (SpAtt)
Naughty, Synchronize
-Charge Beam
-Energy Ball
-Shadow Ball
-Psychic
Honedge, lvl1 5IV (HP, Att, Def, SpAtt, Spd)
Adamant, No Guard
-Tackle
-Swords Dance
-Destiny Bond
I may end up Masuda Methoding a shiny Abra as my hunt for one was just... argh.
Hmm yeah not really anything I would be interested in myself. But yeah Masudaing Abras would probably be your best bet there.
Honedge with an IV in Speed?
... Why. D:
... Oh right it was traded away...
Still... It IS a blood sword... D:
Starting my Abra shiny breeding project...
*salutes*
Best of luck, comrade.
Wonder Trade Abra adoptions will go up. The babies have Egg Moves and their daddy has 6 IVs and is holding a Destiny Knot.
To all those Trainers who doubt Hypno... Behold this TANK!
*standing ovation*
THAT was a Hypno for the ages.
I'm so impressed that I may start playing around with a similar gimmicky set. Need to breed out a Drain Punch Hypno for the right set, though. Already got Hypno for three Elemental Punches.
Based on the commentary... He max'd SpDef, and HP. No idea on the nature... But I guess it might have been Sassy (+SpDef, - Spd).
I may have a Hypno with those stats. Got a few with max HP and a few with max SpDef. Also have several Ditto with those stats, so I can breed out the right Hypno.
Drain Punch is my biggest hurdle. I have a couple Barrier Hypno.
Unfortunately the only way you can teach Hypno Drain Punch is with the Move Tutors in ORAS and you have to beat the game and the Delta episode to access them. It can't be learned by breeding.
33 Abra, no shiny yet...
Zygarde formes (http://www.serebii.net/news/2015/12-September-2015.shtml)
So, we got some more info on the little blobby thing...
Looks like Pokemon Z is more or less confirmed and Greninja might have gotten a Mega Evolution of some sort though it seems strangely subtle. The magazine only mentioned it being a new look so I guess we have to wait for more info.
But Doggy Zygarde is something I want to play with in Amie.
Quickie beat me to it huh...?
I was just about to post it.
I'm just glad I can dress up again and forget ORAS ever happened.
Yeah I might actually get Pokemon 3rd Expansion Pack for once. I'll chose Fennekin this time.

best starter kalos 2015 i don't understand why anyone would doubt
I don't know man I likes my Chespins and Froakies too. Honestly the Kalos Starters are some of the most awesome starters ever, especially since I was so disappointed in the Unovan Starters......
I may try Froakie for a change. I know what to expect with Fennekin, and Ringman used Chespin, so Froakie would be what's left between us. May try a different team setup than I had before. As opposed to raising an Abra, I may run with a Meinfoo and Meditite.
I usually try to use as many different Pokemon as possible when it comes to new games. Though I have never used a Charmander in the main game, but since I decided on Fennekin I'm going with Bulbasaur this time. Maybe a Mawhile too.
I got around to scanning all my Obie sketches.

... Zygarde sure is a Transformer...
Still, finally some official information... Though now have to wait for next year for Z...

THINK ABOUT POKEMON GO FOR A SECOND
Pokemon GO starts vibrating at 3 am and you find a Mr. Mime in the darkest corner of the room... watching.
You wake up from a nightmare and find a Darkrai. Or, you wake up from a sudden nap to find a Drowzee or a Hypno.
Random battles at the grocery store.
Real life Team Rocket.

That would be freaking annoying to be honest. Even the grocery store battles, because I came to the grocery store to shop not battle random people. Now finding Pokemon in a grocery store I wouldn't mind.
Edit: The power of Mega Lopunny is officially insane.

I admit that part with AZ made me chuckle a bit, though I agree I would have prefered a X2 and Y2 instead of Z even though Z is very likely....or XZ and YZ......or X squared and Y squared......because that would be nerdy.....
And dem Cell parallels indeed.
X^2 and Y^2 was my first idea after X and Y came out. I would've loved that.
There better be a "NEXT TIME ON POKEMON ZEEEEE!" parody somewhere.
Considering they referenced 'Over 9000', My Body is Ready and there being some Power Ranger expies in Hoenn I'd say it could be possible.

I always thought Porygon Z were a bit unsettling due to their Pokedex entry.....but Pokemon Amie makes them worse.
So, you know that I'm now Masuda Method breeding for a shiny Abra. No luck yet and I'm taking it slow so as not to crack. After hatching half a box, I decided to take a break and Wonder Trade.
I got a shiny Kadabra through Wonder Trade.

I'd like to think that she's a bringer of good fortune. She had come to tell me that soon my shiny will hatch.
True.
Also... I wonder if Masuda-ing with a Shiny parent would increase the Shiny odds.
Well, my new shiny Alakazam is German... 8D
But, nah, I really want my shota Abra's egg moves.
GERMAN SAUSAGES
... Ahem. -_-
I shall call my new German Alakazam... Franziska. Franziska Spoonstein.

Are shinies different from regular pokemon at all by the way? Other than the colour scheme?
Not really no.
I've never encountered one so I'm guessing it's more for bragging right then? Given all the breeding you all do to get one. XD
Yeah pretty much it's like a 1/8192 chance of finding one normally.

Not really, most of the Shiny Pokemon I got were from Wonder Trading.
Most of mine came from Wonder Trading, too.
And yeah, they don't have any special stats unless bred that way. They just look purdy~
Someone just gave me the Froakie you get from Shauna after you beat the game.
Speaking of which let's talk about how stupid the concept of Ash Greninja is......
I'm the one still shiny breeding. *twitch*
The Ralts told me it's all for the greater good. *twitch*
Yes... They told me so... *twitch*
I'm shiny breeding too! :v
Sssssshhhhhh... The Ralts will hear you... *twitch*
They... They said they can... *twitch*
I realized that my game has a bias towards PokeSatan. Anyone have a spare PokeGod they won't mind shipping over for Puffs and cuddles? 8D
I have the Dex info, I just wanna play with God. Because I had to give up God for Shaymin. And then I gave up Shaymin.
Yeah sorry I don't have Arceus.
*Gets a Zapdos through Wonder Trade* Cool, another one!
*sees that it's shiny*
*spit take*
It's a sign...
TO HATCH MORE EGGS
More info on Zygarde and Ash's Greninja (http://serebii.net/news/2015/14-September-2015.shtml)
Ash-Greninja is the form Greninja takes when the bond between it and Ash is raised to the limit. The phenomenon is said to have happened once several hundred years ago and is, of course, shrouded in mystery.
And Ash is a giant Mary Sue.
Yeah like I said before let's talk about how stupid the concept of Ash Greninja is.
It's irritating because everything happens to Ash. Ash is a magnet for every world-changing event, every Legendary, every special thing that only happens to the chosen few, everything that is super special maxi-supreme awesome happens to Ash.
And yet...
And YET...
He's as dumb as a sack of rocks.
If Ash was a Mary Sue, he'd won at least one regional League. 8D
Hench why I have stopped caring about the anime, that and they never give the other evil teams the screen time they need over stupid Team Rocket shenanigans. I'm sorry but I think the anime is the reason I really don't like Team Rocket more than I should.
I mean this would have been solved if they just retired Ash and Team Rocket after Johto, but of course it's just going to get worse.
Quote from: Dr. Wily II on September 16, 2015, 01:57:54 AM

Which is another problem, the Anime never changes. I think the most shocking different thing that happened was Ash losing to Roark in the DP anime, but not really.
Y'know... I'm about as skillful a trainer as Ash, so I can't really fault him for that. It does bring me some comfort that someone as terrible as me can still progress like he does.
But, this Legendary and super-special-maxi-ultra-awesome Pokemon luck of his is just ridiculous. Ridiculous, I say!
*hides Legendaries, shinies, and shiny Legendaries*
Well hey he doesn't catch the Legendaries, and he only has a Shiny Noctowl. Really like I said I think the problem with Ash was over exposure and perpetually keeping him at 10, but mostly over exposure.
But really the way Ash lost the Unovan and definitely the Sinnoh arc was nothing more than complete and utter bullshit. Seriously who the hell was that Tobias dude?!
Gotta love it when the writers had to pull out LEGENDARIES to stop Ash's plan for League greatness in Sinnoh.
Unova... He sucked throughout. No exceptions.
*stuffs Wonder Trade Hoopa back into the bag* -_-
Ash's relationship with his Chimchar/Infernape was heartwarming, though. :3
It was that bad? Jeez and I thought the way he lost was the low point. [tornado fang]ing Unova anime arc. -AC

That's the type of trainer we all aspire to be. :3
At least those of us who are otherwise terrible. Seriously, I can't battle my way out of a paper bag unless I'm running the world's most gimmicky team. And if I know how to use said gimmicky team. Which I don't. So, I still suck. :B
The whole Ash Greninja thing is just... weird. So, does that mean that when your Pokemon starts using Slot-top Screw and Deep Hole Cushions to make Mysterious Eggs with you, they'll take on your wardrobe appearance?
If that's the case, my Mewtwo, Alakazam, and my many Hypno are all wearing boot-cut jeans, hi-top sneakers, and random SW shirts right now. And the Hypno all have buzzed manes.
I'm hoping it's an anime only thing.
Psssst... He befriended Hoopa too. 8D
So want to watch Clash of Ages... Even if it's just for the sheer Legendarg pwnage abound. XD
To be honest, Ash was at his finest in Sinnoh. He TRAINED.

VOLCARONA
OUCH
It was clearly a bias towards Infernape. *nods*
SQUSIHY FIRE MOTH SQUISHY
Probably the same kind of bias that didn't allow Piplup to evolve......stupid guy who thought Empoleon was ugly.
At least I gave Zeta an Empoleon and he's a lovable jack ass.

Oh, the shiny Gardevoir is named Princess Lea.
o:
That's... fitting. Even without the i.
Neat name, I usually name my Gardevoirs Athena myself.
Yeah, I got all nitpicky about the name spelling, but shiny Gardevoir waifu~
Maybe they were thinking of another character who wasn't Princess Leia but had a very similar name.
The other day I got a shiny Zoroark named Doppelganger!
That is freaking awesome, what Nature and Attacks did he have?
Quirky, and he knows Scratch, Night Slash, Pursuit, and Foul Play.
And speaking of Foul Play and Scratch, I'm gonna play with him in Amie~
Yeah that explains why he was traded, poor guy. Give him lots of Puffs.
Played with him and gave him lots of Puffs and he made that funny doggy face that I absolutely love~

So Pokemon Black and White are officially 5 years old. Strange enough hearing that of all things makes me feel old, it came out in my last year of High School.
I should make a character out of Doppelganger...
I should also figure out how to make a sprite of Obie. There's a challenge right there!

Yeah I usually make my Pokemon into Characters of some sort and thanks to Wonder Trading and Event Shenanigans some of them are Shiny. Anywho I'm finally getting closer to 500 flags, though getting 1,000 is going to take a while.
Also thinking of raising a Heracross but I don't know what kind of Nature or EVs to give and the only Moves I know I want to give it are Pin Missle and Rock Blast. If only Arm Thrust had 25 base power instead of 15 but I guess they didn't want to have a Fighting Type Move slightly more powerful than Close Combat with no draw backs when you have the right ability despite Pin Missle basically doing just that with Mega Horn. Probably going to have no choice but to teach it Close Combat but I really need to figure out that last move.
Maybe it's the headache and fatigue talking, but I started thinking about that "[Pokemon move] in my pants" game and, well...
Mega Horn
...in my pants.

I did this for MegaHera, but I was lazy and gave it Swords Dance for the last move
Eh it might be a good idea but I have a lot of thinking to do. Still don't know which Nature to go with though.
Adamant or Jolly tbh. I would stick with just Pin Missile and Rock Blast as your skill link moves, don't lock yourself into Mega with Arm Thrust when you can activate Moxie with a Close Combat strike.
Then again, Mega into Substitute would be an interesting thing to try.
It just sounds so weird to raise Speed on something so Slow, but if the idea is to kill something for Moxie to activate before you Mega Evolve then I guess you do need as much Speed as possible.
If I could raise the Speed of a Hypno and breed out the fastest mutant Hypno, you can do the same for Heracross.
BELIEVE IN THE POWER OF MUTANTS :W
Well yeah breeding the Speed in there is no problem since I have a Ditto with a Perfect Speed IV, it's whether it would be worth it or not since again even at Max Speed Heracross is pretty damn slow.
Just got a shiny Zangoose named Ryokilos. Lvl 100, Adamant, Immunity. Moves: Crush Claw, Facade, X-Scissor, Close Combat.
ONLY FIVE DAYS OLD. O3O
Must have power leveled the hell out of it though I wonder why they gave him Facade when he has Immunity.

I will never stop being bitter over the lack of artist credit in the most viewed upload of that song. It's warinside/Blankfield (http://blankfield.but.jp/). Check out their other stuff. Some Mega Mega in there even. Also a proper MP3 of that theme you posted.

EDIT 2: Oh god not only is DP 9 but Red and Blue are 17. I expect a 2nd remake on the 20th anniversary all things considered despite Gen 1 kind of being some of my least favorites. Not to mention the worst Victory Road in the series in my opinion.
... I go to Zepy Games all the time!!
Thanks for the heads-up, Sakura. *brings all 4 Gen6 games*

Yeah I was checking it when someone told me Australia got Hoopa and then that was staring at me in the face.
;( not yet
It's a problem here, the events are never advertised in mass media, only in niche publications like Coco Singapore (which not everyone buys), or you stalk Maxsoft's webpage.
After you showed me Serebii, I checked Bulba, and indeed, it showed a WHOLE LOT of places.
... And it APPARENTLY STARTED SINCE AUGUST 21 :W
Sounds like serial cards, so hope that you find a store with some?
I called Zepy Games near my area, they still have some.
So I'll head there tomorrow after work.
Finally got the second Destiny Knot I needed from Graffiti Eraser, now I'm going to get some more evolution items from the Balloon Popping game.
EDIT: After 3,000 years I finally reached Gold Rank for Secret Base Flags.
I'm still trying for that Master Ball. Keep trying to line up my cart with the tree with the most berries and I've gotten A Rank a few times.

Another box hatched... nothing yet. I think I'm seven boxes in.
Another box hatched... nothing yet. Box number 8.
On the plus side, got some decent Wonder Trades tonight, including a Tyrantrum.
Codes ran out, but there will be a new batch coming in tomorrow, so I'll try again then.
I'm amassing a collection of Pokemon with naughty names. So far, I have Pokemon with names such as SEEBUTT, ButtButt, Poopface, C*ckbunny, Toad c*ck, TitLegs, Plz fk me, Prickmer, Pusylicker, and now WeepingDick.
... Who's Plz fk me...
[spoiler]Cloyster?[/spoiler]
Seedot. I'll have to check what ButtButt is, but Poopface is a Frogadier, Pusylicker is a Lickitung, C*ckbunny is a Litleo, Toad c*ck is a Tympole, TitLegs a Medicham, SEEBUTT a Seedot, Prickmer the Whismur, and WeepingDick the Weepingbell.
Litleo? I was seriously thinking Lopunny. XD

Speaking of which what do you even want that Master Ball for anyway, just to have it?
I need it for the rare event that I find that shiny Abra. And for any shinies, really. I have three, though.
Figured as much, come to think of it I wonder if I should just use that Master Ball I have in Y to catch Zygarde or just wait for Pokemon Z or whatever.
I used mine on Mewtwo. Zygarde took maybe... six or eight Ultra Balls.
It's more like I'm too lazy to drag myself to his cave to get to him than just catching him.
So, I got another Latios through Wonder Trade.
I now have four.

So a new Battle Competition was announced that's kind of interesting.
[spoiler]A new Battle Competition has been announced.

Registration runs from October 15th 2015 to October 23rd 2015 while battles run from October 23rd to October 25th 2015. All entrants get 10 Rare Candy.[/spoiler]
I think the reason Pikachu specifically is allowed, beside being Pikachu, is because of Cosplay Pikachu. I don't know why Hypno wasn't there though, maybe they thought he was too scary/not scary enough? Then again Mr. Mime and Driftblim are there......
EDIT: Oh and the latest products on the Pokemon Center might have something to do with Pikachu's inclusion.
HYPNO DISCRIMINATION :W
Maybe.
Anyway Wily gave me a code for Hoopa. That event to get the Prison Bottle was sure something else.

It's okay, guys; some day, you'll get to be featured in a competition... ;3;

whaaaaaaaaaaaat... No kidding!
Ahem... I actually have 2 more spare codes for Hoopa to share, that works for American games, and maybe Japanese games.
Please PM me if you are interested. I'll check my inbox 26 hours from now. If there are more than 2 requests by then, the lucky 2 will be chosen randomly.
The fact that this was coming from what seemed like a teenager or young adult made it worse, and by that I mean the tone of the dialog. Seriously I feel for the guy.
[spoiler]It was a stick-up after all. The burglar was "kind" enough to give the attendant the Bottle.[/spoiler]
For those who want to see the dialog....
[spoiler]Hey, do you have a minute for a story? This is something that happened when I was watching the store one time... It was, like, a totally dark night. Moonless. And I was all, "No way! This is so-o-o-o creepy!" Then, suddenly—whoosh! Out of nowhere, the automatic sliding door...slides open. And then this super-duper-scary old guy comes in, kinda unsteady, you know? Kinda shambling... So I'm thinking how terrible and scary is this, and then the old guy shuffles over to me... He has a package, like, clutched in his hands... He's mumbling that he has to show it to me... Then he asks, "Do you know what this is worth?" He keeps staring right at me and not even blinking. I was so freaked out. I was, like... "Oh yes. It's, uh, really something, isn't it?" So the old guy grins at me, and he says... "Then I'll just give you this instead of money. Now give me everything you've got in this store!" That's what he said! Really! I was like, "What is this? Too weird, my dude!" But I was scared, so I started shoveling over Potions and, like, whatever I could reach. I gave the dude everything for his stupid package. And out he goes, like, with a wicked grin on his face... As he's walking out, he says, "Three days... For a mere three days will Hoopa be unbound..." Really! I was all, "Stop freaking me out with this nonsense!" I was, like, sweating. The back of my shirt was soaked. Anyway, nothing I could do, so I open the package. It's just a dirty old bottle. Li-i-i-i-ike, really. So I go, "Weirdness. Wonder what's in it." I grab the stopper and carefully pull it loose. Blapt! It popped open, but there was nothing inside! So I figure I totally got fooled. ...Thanks for listening to my story. Know what? I'm gonna give you the bottle from that night 'cause you're so nice. It's not doing me any good anyway. Really."
Recieved Prison Bottle
"Sometimes I wonder if it really is only a dirty old bottle. Those last words that the old guy said as he left... "For a mere three days will Hoopa be unbound..." Just can't seem to get that out of my head..."
After obtaining (top floor of Mauville City)
"Oh... You're that kid from that time... What did you end up doing with that old bottle? Though...I guess it doesn't matter anymore. Really. It's just, even now, it's still bugging me, you know? "For a mere three days will Hoopa be unbound..." That's what he said. I just can't seem to forget it..."[/spoiler]

Will those work codes work by the time I get a New 3DS and a copy of Alpha Sapphire? (Read: not anytime soon.)
If you need, I can take one, bank it for you, and trade it off?

The codes expire on 30 Nov, but like Boris mentioned. If you want, he can grab for you first, and trade later.
*gets a Feebas named Vajayjay*
Another one for my collection!
Okay that definitely should have been a Cloyster.
HOOPA UPDATE:
So, I have 1 PM at the moment... But I have another free code.
So... That means I still have 2 free codes remaining. Haha.

Hiya all...
I still have one free serial code for Hoopa. It works for American games (XYORAS), and perhaps Japanese games (XYORAS). With it, you can unlock the Prison Bottle in ORAS.
So... COME ONE COME ALL
The code expires on 30 November 2015. D:

WONDER TRADE GENOCIIIIIIIIIDE :W
I haven't checked mine yet. Though, I did have a dream that I got a shiny Mightyena, so maybe I should Dex Nav for a shiny Poochyena, or just shiny hunt in X because Shiny Charm.
I do love my AS Poochyena, though. Harley Quinn knows Thunder Fang and she's a great Pokemon.
I just placed all my previous X Ralts into my Y game... That frees up about 14 boxes. XD
I may soon begin the Zigzagoon/Wurmple genocide. I have tons.
I never catch as much in my Y and AS games, so their empty boxes becomes fodder for my X and OR breeding needs! >BD
How many boxes in the Bank do you get again?
And, want any Zigzagoon? 8D
100 boxes, each holding 30 mons.
I have Ralts. 8D
I'm up to 63 or so, so it's soon time for Zigzagoon/Wurmple genocide.
Quote from: Serebii Pokemon anime titlesThe Newtype magazine has revealed another new episode title for the second episode of Pokémon XY & Z. In this episode, Ash & Co. continue to travel to Snowbelle City, with their new friend Squishy (Zygarde Core), when a wild Quilladin appears. It is due to air on November 5th 2015
Episode 898: Hot-blooded Quilladin! Squishy is Being Targeted!!
THEY CALLED IT SQUISHY~ *o*
Guess you'll nickname it too in the future Z game. XD
If I nickname Zygarde, it'll be Gudis, if only because the cell-gathering thing is ironically the one element that does not fit with Cell from DBZ.
My Zygarde's name is Zardoz.

Seems like the entire plot of this week's episode of the anime for the most part is Olympia pointing out Ash's Frogadier is special and showing his past. Also Frogadier got beat up by lots of Froakie before getting to Sycamore.
This week on Pokemon: Ash is super-special maxi-supreme awesome and attracts super-special maxi-supreme awesome Pokemon who have troubled pasts and latch onto Ash like a growth.
In other words: Water is wet. :P
But he'll never get that Dunspace he wants.....
It's not special enough. If it were a pygmy Dunsparce with a checkered past full pf abuse, and if it had some hidden talent that is unlike all other Dunsparce, then he'd have it.
But, since it's just a garden-variety Dunsparce, then Ash will never catch it.
That thing is definitely more outlandish than Narancia the surfing dwarf Raichu...I think.....
EDIT: Actually looking at the definitions it seems Narancia being a midget would be more accurate than a dwarf since he doesn't have abnormal body proportions.
I got a shiny Entei named Sacred.
Are you guys at all aware today was the 15th anniversary of G/S?

I'm trying to vary up my Abra hatching with horde hunts because they're relatively easy.
At some point, I plan to radar-chain for a shiny Absol, though.

As for PokeRadar shiny Chaining, best to read it up on Bulba. It is a very complicated and precise mechanism.

After starting my new job and getting my paycheck, I finally got Alpha Sapphire and I am going to play it later. Here is my FC: 4270-2072-8683. I am finally apart of something......I think.
I've banked the contents of my X boxes and I'm starting a new file. I'm gonna be a cute grill tho.
Mostly doing this for the hell of it because I want to play through the story again. When Z comes out I'll probably transfer my old competitive team to that and use them there.
I really should start thinking what kind of Team I should make for Z, having Fennekin for my first Starter and Bulbasaur for my second really drastically lowers my options, especially Fennekin.
Fennekin and Bulbasaur was my set.
BTW Sakura, I have three eggs I can't bank. I think one's a Bulbasaur and two are Eevees. You want them for like zigzagoons or something?
Nah I'm fine.
Also I decided to use Hawlucha in my Z team. However I'm having a hard time deciding if I want Azumarill, Grandbull or Mawhile as my Fairy and if I don't use Azumarill what Water type I should use. This is all assuming any of them don't get omitted in Z.
Alright no loss. I have a couple Bank boxes full of bulbasaurs and eevees so it's no big deal. Just didn't want them to go to waste.
Hawlucha so based. I use Milotic as water type. (I can feebas charity u~)
Anyways lemme bank my battle box and I'm all set.
Eh I figured since I won't use Talonflame and Hawlucha can Fly and is Fighting type I decided eh why not. That and Luchadores. But yeah I'll decide my Water type once we get enough info on Z, Water types are usually the last type I finalize since it's so hard for me to choose for multiple reasons.
Never forget.
(http://pokebot.everyboty.net/pix/3160.jpg)
My Z team... Would most likely be the same as my X team... Except some moveset changes. Maybe.
I try to make it a rule to use as many Pokemon I've never used before on a Team as possible in every Pokemon Game.
I usually do that, which I did in my Y. I only had Emerald for Hoenn, Pearl and Platinum for Sinnoh, there's no third game for Unova, but my 4 teams there were different because of different regional dexes.
Unless Z has an expanded dex... I really see no other alternatives (One com mon bird that's not Pidgey/Fledgeling, a False Swiper that's not Pancham/Honedge, and a third option).
....How about Aerodactyl and Beedrill? Hell Cubone and Mawile too.
Fossils are too awesome to use!
Beedrill... Doesn't matchup well. Even as Mega.
Mawile is a choice though.
Marowak... Not so much either.
Hawlucha? Charizard? Dodrio? Crobat? Sigilyph?
... I think I got it!
Venusaur, Charizard (X), Blastoise, Crobat, Magnezone, and... Argh, I still need a False Swiper.
... Shedinja. 8D
Mawhile can False Swipe hence why I suggested her.
Huh. Didn't know that.
Still... Think of all the Shedinja shenanigans! Plus no Shadow Tag-Ing!
... Though those Fire, Ghost, Dark, Flying and Rock Pokemon would be hard to catch... Haha.
My Z team will have a different starter, but it may end up being more or less the same. May go with an unconventional Fly slave early on.
I usually find changing the Starter results in a drastically different team for me when at least half my members change. Especially if the starter is dual type.
Huge Power False Swipe... I guess that is worth something.
As such Shedinja gets axed. And switching Magnezone out for Weavile.
Considering I'm a lackluster trainer, I'll most likely be using the same basic types on my team. I want to change it up at least a little bit and raise up a Medicham, but I'll most likely still have an Abra.
I'll start prepping Zubat, Mawile and Sneasel eggs for Z!
... After my Shiny Ralts run.

I traded the shiny Zangoose and Delibird.

I'm not trading all of them. Just a couple here and there. Keeping most of them, especially the ones with nicknames.

And besides; I replace them so fast that my shiny total barely budged.

Pokémon XY & Z - Episode Titles
A TV Guide has revealed another new episode title, this time for the fifth episode of Pokémon XY & Z. This episodes is set to air in Japan on November 26th and features the secrets behind Squishie (Zygarde Core) being revealed
Episode 901: Pikachu Dreams of Squishy!
Pikachu... Oh my... o:

Pikachu... don't have squishy wet dreams about Squishy. Squishy is an innocent cinnamon roll; too pure.
Does anyone's game just turn off and out receive error message telling you to restart the game? I bought the physical copy and it still works so far however it still worries that it could happen again.
Never happened to me. I own all four, and OR is the only digital version I own. The other three haven't given me issue.
I've had the occasional connection error during Wonder Trade that would force a restart, but that's it.
I never had any messages that forced me to restart the game. I mean yeah I had those connection issues during Wonder Trade but nothing that forces me back to the title screen with my progress lost if that's what you mean.
Nope, never had that problem.
So I guess it is just me then. I am going to work soon but I will again to see if I get the same result as this never happened to me before with my other 3DS games.
The force restart only happened twice, and the error message says that it's a connection error. Usually happens after a few basic connection errors. Since I save before every trade, I don't lose any progress.
But even then, the error never shuts off the game.
Okay yeah that never happened for me before then.
Next time it happens, I'll write it down so I can troubleshoot it. Most likely a connection error due to dodgy nets.

Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire - US Hoopa
Following the accidental reveal on the official site yesterday, the Hoopa event has been reconfirmed for the US. Running at McDonald's restaurants from November 27th to December 23rd, it is now confirmed that Hoopa is distributed through the McDonald's Nintendo Zone meaning you'll need to take your 3DS and a copy of Pokémon X, Y, Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire with you.
Well I already have a Hoopa, and I don't want to go to a McDonald's so I think I will pass on that.
Time to head to McDonald's! I have a coupon for a free sandwich anyway.
It seems to work now as it doesn't close up on me, I wonder if it was a wifi issue that caused it?

[spoiler]Its body is known to be soft and tender; however, its shell is said to be harder than diamond. Prehistoric Shellder were apparently preyed upon by Omastar. Once ensnared by Omastar's tentacles, its hard shell stood no match to the Spiral Pokémon's deadly powerful bite, and its soft insides quickly devoured.[/spoiler]
And sure enough it's in Omastar's Pokemon Gold entry......

[spoiler]It's a Pokemon-eat-Pokemon world.
Even though Omastar's Att isn't much to write home about.
Then again, back in GSC, Bite was a Special-based attack...[/spoiler]
[spoiler]Yeah I know, still disturbing though.[/spoiler]
New OP is pretty good. All the signs point to them making a Z game, I'll be really surprised if they don't.
Yeah it's pretty much at least 90% confirmed it'll be Pokemon Z with maybe a 10% chance it would be XZ and YZ or something. But it's probably going to be just Z anyway, either way I'll probably get it for once since I don't really get the 3rd version expansion pack most of the time, except Crystal since that was when I got a Gameboy Color.
There's a new Mewtwo form in Pokken Tournament, seems to be a "dark" mega evolution.
! No longer available (http://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=7&v=3VKwYaDIh14#)
We all know some manner of X/Y expansion (Z, X2/Y2, whatever) is coming on account of the new Zygarde forms, but seeings how Mewtwo had the "ultimate" Mega Evolutions in X/Y, I'd say there's a good chance we could see this form in the main games around the same time. I wonder, will he be able to dethrone Mega Rayquaza, or is that too much to ask? Guess we'll see...
Eh I think it's more likely it's just going to be exclusive to Pokken Tournament like Primal Dialga in Mystery Dungeon and Shadow Lugia/XD001 in Gale of Darkness.
Though maybe Zygarde Complete will dethrone Mega Rayquaza.....doubt it though.
EDIT: Also this coincidence since I saw Omastar's dex entry before this came up.

Yes, yes it is.
Obviously the only thing that would surpass Mega Rayquaza would be Mega Arceus followed by Mega Giratina.
Still hatching Abra... nothing yet.
Got a shiny Aerodactyl through Wonder Trade, though.

Introducing......the Pikachu intern plush?

But, that plush is adorable. I love how they're bringing over offbeat stuff.

Perhaps so; a new video was released which refers to the base form as Shadow Mewtwo. The Mega is apparently just Shadow Mewtwo's version of Mega X.
We got another event here.
For those of you in North America, a Zoroark event has randomly begun over the Nintendo Network. This Zoroark is available through Mystery Gift > Receive Gift > Receive Via Internet only on Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire games and is special in that it has the move Sludge Bomb, a move it can't normally know. Currently no end date is known. Our Event Database has been updated with details of this event
Can confirm. Just got my Zoroark! XD
Meanwhile I'm trying to get a specific nature since I want to raise this Zoroark. I mean it has Sludge Bomb and I am not going to waste that.
EDIT: Got it on the 3rd try with a Perfect Speed IV to boot, strangely all the ones I got were Male even though there was a 50% chance of them being female.
Females are only 12.5%.
... Looks like I have to break my Ralts chain again.
Okay then that makes sense.
Just got mine. He's Careful and Impetuous and silly.
Mine is Gentle! Awwwwwww!
I wonder... could Sludge Bomb be bred from that Zoroark?
Nah it can't.
Has anyone tried?
Zoroark can't legitimately learn Sludge Bomb, so the move would not be able to be passed down.
Bah. I was hoping there'd be a loophole and it'd be treated like a TM or Egg Move.
*gets a shiny Furfrou* GONNA STYLE YOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUU~
Grabbed my Zoroarks. Back to shiny Ralts.

As a fan of Surfing Pikachus I feel your pain.
Also details on the Zoroark event for Europe.
Following the surprise release last night of the special Sludge Bomb Zoroark over the Nintendo Network for North American Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire games, details have been revealed for other places. It has been confirmed that this event is coming to Europe. In the UK, it will be distributed via serial code in GAME stores from November 6th to November 26th and can be redeemed in Pokémon X, Y, Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire
Tiny update.
The US online distribution for the Sludge Bomb Zoroark will end on 20 November 2015.
Also if for some reason you haven't gotten them yet or just recently got the game the Johto and Unovan Starters with Hidden Abilities distribution will end on the 30th. The Johto Starters can be gotten via the Bank and the Unovan starters can be gotten with codes which you can find on Serebii's event page as a reminder.
Though we can also breed those Pokemon in case you missed them.
I've gotten Johto/Unova so if anyone misses just call and I can breed them out.
Got the Johto starters, need to get the Unova starters. Are the codes good for XY? Or just for ORAS?
Just ORAS.
The codes are here.

I changed my background to Mickey's Hypno from Ariados Amigos and the message icon is RIGHT ON THAT HYPNO'S JUNK.
AND THEN I STARTED GETTING MESSAGES.
I HAVE TO LITERALLY TAP DAT.
*DIEDEDDEAD*
Oh, in case you doubt that the message icon is problematic...
(http://i.imgur.com/oI3MuEQ.png)
Go ahead.
Tap that. 8D
The only thing that would pake that worse is if it was a Machoke......
The look on the Hypno's face, also. He's just like "I freakin' DARE you!"
And two more boxes of Abra... nothing yet.
It looks more like he's daring someone to throw a rock at it.
(http://i.imgur.com/ja8JJYO.jpg)
So... a little bit ago, I was lurking on GTS hoping to snag a Yveltal. I saw the shiny ones and they are PRETTY and I thought, "You know what would be cool? To get one through Wonder Trade."
Guess what just happened.
yoz the lucky o:
is it the japanese event one?
Doubtful. Level 50, OT is Kevin (my nephew's name), and location is Team Flare Secret HQ.
Probably hacked, but I honestly don't care because Eminem is purdy~
Oh yeah he's definitely hacked since the one at Flare HQ is Shiny Locked. But enjoy him none the less.
His name is EminemRapGod and I feed him little puffs and pet his neck floof and he loves it~
Okay, someone's cloning these hacked Yveltal because I JUST GOT ANOTHER ONE.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

And it looks pretty damn nice.

Awwwww yeaaaaah
Hatched more Abra... nothing yet.
So there's a second Squishy Core in the anime only it has a Blue core instead of a Red one, much like the 2 Movie Deoxys with a Purple and Green core. Come to think of it Zygarde Complete had both Red and Blue markings on it too.....
Another box of Abra... nothing yet.
Holy [tornado fang]ing [parasitic bomb] Pokemon RBY is coming to the 3DS eShop! And you can trade with them! :O
Now they need a 3DS Pokemon Stadium.
Or Wii U stadium at the very least.

Oh how I miss the N64 Stadium and its awesome Gym Leader Castle music. Yeah, they totally need to bring that back.
So many Gen1 memories to be relived. The exploits, the Hyper Beam finishers, the fact that Speed impacted accuracy so that Paralysis made 1-hit-KO moves an actually worthwhile risk, and Blizzard's ridiculous perma-freeze rate. Mewtwo, Zapdos, and Moltres were all special tanks, Articuno could dish out some damage, Ninetales was actually worth a damn, and Dragonite was the best of the oddly common STAB-less physical attackers.
Poor Nintales, if only her Special Defense was actually her Special Attack since she can learn Extrasensory and Energy Ball now. Still no Shadow Ball though, which doesn't make sense.
But seriously we need a Mega Nintales and Mega Jynx.
It's hard for me to get excited about the idea of a new Mega Evolution since Mega Lucario makes such a surprisingly awesome Doubles partner for Dragonite. It'd be tough to break that.
But YES, we need a Mega Ninetales! She is my favorite non-flying Fire type.
Also a Mega Arcanine, one that makes him insanely fluffy.

*hits up GTS to see if I can get an Arceus. Sees a shiny one offered for a Starly. Makes the trade*
8B
Dude can I borrow that for my Pokedex and give it back?
Later this evening, sure. Need any other Pokemon?
Not that I can think of at the moment, unless the impossible happens and you acquire a Meloetta even though the GTS doesn't offer it. But yeah I don't think so, I'll let you know if I do.
Er, I have a Meloetta if you need one. It's in the bank.

I'm good. I'm just doing a for-fun run in X. Lemme get online before I leave.
And I should just give it back to you right?
Nah bounce it over to Quickie and she can play around with it while I'm gone.
Okay I'll do that when I bounce for Arceus.
Well I'm on now and I leave in about 5-10 mins soooo
I don't have any Pokemon, but I'll be happy to bounce with you guys.

LOOOL
hold on lemme do that
EDIT: There I am. Sorry! Must've slipped my mind.
That's weird I do have you registered, unless you have another 3DS.
Nah it was on my end. Must've slipped my mind.
Cute mii.
Aand there you go!
Alright I'll be back online later fam.
Okay I'm going to teach Meloetta Relic Song to get the Step Forme.
*Gets a male Ralts named Hellboy*
...I have to raise him to a Gardevoir. I have to.
Honestly I'd say that's perfect for a morally ambiguous Ronin Gallade unlike normal honorable Gallades but I don't blame you for wanting another Trapevoir either.
It's mainly for the image.
Pretty Gardevoir in a pretty dress...
Named Hellboy.
Eh fair enough, as badass a Gallade named Hell Boy would be a Gardevoir named Hell Boy is pretty great too.
I think it'd be a better Gallade but that's just me.
Yeah I feel the same but if Quickie wants yet another Trapevoir so be it.
*can't ever raise my Pokemon right by you guys* :c
I mean yeah personally I don't really get raising the same types of Pokemon all the time but if that's what you want just ignore us and do what you enjoy.
Especially since you caught all of them already and thus have a Gallade already. I mean in the end it doesn't matter if you want to make Hell boy the most badass sounding Gallade ever or the most badass Trapevoir ever.
If you want a Gallade named Hellboy, get a male Ralts, name him Hellboy, and then raise him into a Gallade.
I just think that the imagery of a male Gardevoir named Hellboy is hilarious.
Yeah I'm happy with my little Miyamoto Musashi. I'm still debating if I should retcon Zeta's Gallade from Kenshin to Musash in Wilypocalypse. Then again I'm debating retconing a few things.....like the Shuffle Alliance......I really want to retcon that the most so I can just ignore it because I realized that the entire thing was/is pointless now. I was really dumb back then, then again I'm still such a crap writer but I feel I'm slightly better now.
But it's not like that matters as long as I'm having fun and don't [acid burst] off people too much.......
*gets a shiny Mismagius*
Aww yiss puke-green witch-ghost!
Jeez maybe you should make an update the list of all those Shinies again, and then do that every month......
Oh, I also just got another shiny Furfrou, a shiny Spinda, and just now a Terrakion.
I've traded away one of my many Latios (I HAVE FIVE), along with some assorted shinies as I either catch or breed my own.
Can I have a Shiny Furfrou?
Sure. Right now, I have one on my team so I can get that medal. The one I just got is named KillRoy.
I'll just call him Pierre or something. Anything you want for that or the bounced Arceus?
Aside from bouncing the Meloetta? Otherwise, I'm not really looking for anything.
And I just got a Pachirisu named CRAPHOLE. I shall add them to the collection...
Right slipped my mind there, okay just trade Arceus first and then the Furfrou.
As for the Furfrou, I am looking for an Espeon if you have an extra. If not, I'll take whatever.
Yeah I don't have an extra Espeon.
Make sure to get that Furfrou styled at least once. The shinies look great styled.
Yeah I will once I get it back to Y.
*trades a Pikachu and gets a Meowth*
Lol
Seriously Quickie, I need to rub you all over me. XD
Ship confirmed canon.
Uhh...
I mean yeah you've got some good luck with trades. It's weird.
Good times to go on Wonder Trade are usually late afternoon-evening, night from 11-3 am, and Wednesday is Wonder Trade Wednesday.
Got a shiny Mightyena tonight.
ITS SO SHINY I COULD DIE
I'll update the shiny list later when I have time.
*Gets a shiny male Lopunny named Liam Kneeson*
HE'S PAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNK :W
And he's mine.
[tornado fang] yeah pink femboy bunny!
Once you get to Mauville in AS to get the Mega Stone, Mega Evolve him, teach him Fake Out and watch him wreak [parasitic bomb] up to high heaven. Seriously Mega Lopunny is one of my favorite Mega Evolutions to see things go down.
He already knows Fake Out.
Then the wrecking of [parasitic bomb] can commence once you get the Mega Stone. What other moves does he have?
Ice Punch, Drain Punch, and Return.
Speaking of which... Would I be able to breed out Drain Punch onto a Hypno? I got a few others with different elemental punches, and some odd moves (Guard Swap and Flatter).
No Hypno unfortunately can only learn Drain Punch from the Move Tutors and you won't have access to them until you beat the Delta episode.
But yeah that moveset for Lopunny is pretty great, though you can replace Drain Punch with High Jump Kick once he hits his 60's.
He's at lvl66 currently.
In that case when you get to Fallarbor town find the Move Reminder.
I got a Hypno off of GTS while helping others with their Dex. It's a Hidden Ability Hypno, so now I have all the Abilities.
Wow I didn't think you didn't have a HA Hypno until now.
My first Hypno was a Forewarn from GTS. Through breeding, I got Insomnia Hypno. Never had a breeder for Inner Focus Hypno because I don't have a Drowzee Safari.
SHINY BULBASAUR!
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! 0v0
I wish he had a better Nature but I don't care, Shiny [tornado fang]ing Bulbasuar!
SHINEH CABBAGE~
The only way this could have been better, besides Nature, is if the Bulbasaur was Female so it gets that huge spike when it evolves into Venusaur.
But I will cherish my Cabbage.
I've been having Zigzagoon hold Rare Candy and sending them back through Wonder Trade.
I just got a shiny Bulbasaur named Surprise.
What's the Nature?
Gentle.
I'm just Wonder Trading as a distraction right now.
Yeah I don't blame you for doing that, hope you gte more shiny luck tonight.
Got a shiny Kingdra.
Final reminder that you must get the Johto Starters via the bank and the Unovan Starters via Codes you can find on Serebii before Monday.
Though like I said before most of us can breed them for you if you missed them.

Damn that is the most extreme OCD Pokemon related thing I have ever seen. I mean the Pokedex Numbers is pretty cool but holy crap even the gender differences.
Alternative forms as well. Holy [parasitic bomb], indeed...
That's some dedication.
The most I've done was separate my shinies and Legendaries into shinies I got, shinies I caught, shiny Legendaries, and Legendaries.

Ah great now the ocean turned purple.

[yt]https://youtu.be/VhKYU2tJ8II[/yt]
Volcanion trailer.
Fire + water type? Weird...
Yeah thing is Volcanion has been leaked for quite a while since people data mined X and Y along with Diancie and Hoopa, who was the first one were really knew about despite being the second to be distributed. But yeah we already knew the type of Volcanion, however we didn't know Hoopa had a second form until ORAS nor did we know about Diancie's Mega Evolution til it was revealed so I'm wondering if Volcanion will also have another form like those 2.
Volcanion also has Water Absorb for an ability so think of him as a huge living Steam Generator and his signature attack being a beefed up Scald.
Went to McDonalds and got a Wobbuffet toy. I should make a Mandalorian helmet for it.
Wobbu Fett.
Yes, you should definitely do that. You should do something for the tail as well since it's kind of implied that the tail is the real Pokemon and the blue body is merely a decoy.
The tail will get its own little helmet~

Sold. Gotta say I really like that design and the concept of both fire and water is weird, yet intriguing.
Yeah he's a mixed attacker as well and can learn Flare Blitz and Overheat naturally.
Once again, SOLD. Now go catch it and bring it to me.
Well unless someone hacks the thing in we can't get it til it's distributed next year. Though if there's an early distribution in say Australia and Ruri/Archer/whatever other name he had back then is around he could give some codes for us. Or randomly Singapore gets one unannounced like the Doc and Hoopa.
I have complete and utter no confidence in you whatsever. You Will get Volcanion for me, you have the pokemon sorcerific experience. Bring him to me so that way I have a fateful companion and then star in a buddy cop film.
I also don't know how to hack unless an Action Replay worked with the 3DS.
Give me a bit and I'll get it over Wonder Trade and ask for someone to clone it. :P
Yeah she has the Wonder Trade Hax, it's how I got Arceus in my Dex and a Shiny Furfrou since she had an extra.
Arceus came from GTS. I just luckily scored it for a Starly.
But, my Wonder Trade Hax has brought me many a shiny Legendary, many shiny Pokemon, many random Legendaries, a Hoopa, two shiny hacked Yveltal, and my own Drowzee that came back after traveling the world.
His name is Wally and he's a Hypno now.
As I Wonder Traded a Cyndaquil I noticed it blinked. How does something with it's eyes close blink?!
EDIT: Also suddenly shiny Politoad, with Drizzle and a Modest Nature. Well unless we get a Mega Evolution with Drizzle I migth use him on a Rain Team.
EDIT 2: Oh I got that error thing Waifu was talking about a month or 2 back, kind of odd.
Got a Shiny Yanmega, with the same trainer as the Politoed as the OT. Hope they're not hax, hey Quickie are any of your Shinies from Ace, particularly the Yveltals and Arceus?
Edit: Also got a Shiny Pawniard, with an Ability Capsule, Pokerus and perfect IVs. From a person called Cat Hacks.....
EminemRapGod's OT is Kevin, and the other Yveltal is Brandon. None of the shinies have an OT named Ace.
Though, one of them has AuSlove.tv, and a lot of my shinies came from people sporting that in their messages.
How about X-Player, Cat Hacks and Sakati.TV?
Not that I recall. Just AuSLove.TV. Though, I do see Sakati Pokemon on GTS and a non-shiny may have crossed my path, which I may have traded or have buried in my box somewhere.
I see, well hacked or no I still think I'll keep them. I mean despite perfect IV's and shininess they shouldn't be too out of the ordinary.
Embrace the free hacked mons~
I know I enjoy my hacked Yveltal~
And I just got another Zekrom. Non-shiny.
Yeah I think I will, besides it's not like I'd enter a Tournament anytime soon.
I once had a hacked shiny Typhlosion with Wonder Guard.
never again
Just got a shiny Liligant from SAKATI (OT: Sakati.TV).
I think them and AuSLove.TV distribute clones through Wonder Trade.

Yup. Sakati S does Wonder Trade stuff. Their YouTube channel is entirely in German.

So the ring can disconnect as well and become hoses, awesome.
I got my THIRD shiny Furfrou.
What's the name of this one?
Dakota.
Not sure what style I'll give her.
Well at least it makes more sense than Killroy.
Someone sent me a Hawlucha named GAY. That Courtney person who named him that is a jerk, I really don't like when people do things like that.
However I decided to trade him again unfortunately, since I kind of don't stop a Wonder Trade chain til I get something new or interesting, and got a female Typlosion. I just hope Mr. Hawlucha can find a good home eventually........
EDIT: Also got a Shiny Ampharos, this one doesn't seem hacked because she has some crap IVs and an odd nature.
I had a Flabebe named Gayflower for a bit. And a Wurmple named Gay.
Yeah like I said I don't particularly think that's cool.
Also I noticed that my Shiny Pawniard has it's Hidden Ability Pressure, like most of the other most likely hacked Shinies. A bit odd since I think Defiant would have been better, like how Beck the shiny Luxray has Guts even though I think Intimidate is much better.

3 shiny female Ralts, 1 shiny male Ralts, 1 shiny Wailmer (fished)
Now you can Wonder Trade the rest and get Zizagoons to retrade because jerks trade over so many Zigzagoons. And Charmanders. And Fletchlings. And Marills. And more Ralts.
I'll eventually do that, I have one box of 2-3 IV'd Ralts ready for WT.
I'm mostly Wonder Trading to fill up my Pokedex and get Shiny Pokemon. I have 564 so far.
Speaking of which can I have a Shiny Female Ralts?
I have no intention of trading them though, sorry. >U<
Spent WAY too much time on them to part with them. >U<
Fair enough, I understand.
Quickie.....I think you may need this in your life.......dear god.......

That is so goofy.
"Hey Ash, have you got more wood?"
Ash: Oooooohhhhhh yeah~ 8D
How about Jessie and James sounding like they're making a porno and Meowth being a bastard? 8D
Yeeeaaaaahhhh, totally turned on~ 8D
Though, Meowth's Yom Kippur line was a bit uncalled for. But, since we're reaching for stereotypes, Meowth has a bit of that New York Jewish in his accent, so maybe he's knocking on it to hide the truth; Meowth is Jewish. :B
Gives new meaning to them yelling "We're blasting off agaaaaaaaaaain!" 8D
And I thought giving Galick Gun new meaning was bad enough.
And here I had assumed the infamous mistletoe song would be the weirdest thing on that CD. Holy crap, that was equal parts fun and mind-breaking. ~w~
o/` And a Farfetch'd with great A-GI-LI-TYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!! o/`
Started playing with Princess Lea the shiny Gardevoir. Got her rated, too. She's got 4 IV in HP, Att, Def, and SpDef.
I don't know what it is but seeing the Snorunts shiver so much makes me want to cuddle them, but I have no idea if they're actually cold. It's jarring.
Oh, McHoopa ends this Wednesday, so get it while you can!

Well I don't need a McHoopa thanks to Wily. Now if only McDonalds sold Onion Rings......someone draw Hoopa eating Onion Rings.........
Get a McHoopa anyway! Get all the Hoopa!
ATTENTION!!
There is an Arceus serial code distribution going on the Maxsoft Facebook page.
Here's the link: http://woobox.com/g29wrv (http://woobox.com/g29wrv)
The distribution will end on December 25th 2015 or when the codes are exhausted.
Last Day to redeem Arceus with your code is on January 30th 2016.
It works for US and JAP XYORAS games.
You need to have a Facebook account, and you can only have one code per account.
I just grabbed my code, so I know it works.
HURRY!!
Limited codes!!
Awesome, I just got mine.
Does Quickie have an Arceus...
Yeah she has that hacked Shiny one but she can get an official or something.
I guess I can't complain that Singapore doesn't get enough Pokemon events anymore...
[spoiler]Then again, complaining is in the blood of all Singaporeans!! 8D[/spoiler]
Haha, I missed out!
Jeez that was fast, I was lucky.
Hmmm... Maxsoft went quiet... They restocked some codes earlier, try again?
Nevermind... Maxsoft have posted that all Arceus codes have been redeemed.
So what Pokemon did you recommend for the next distribution, I said Keldeo but in retrospect I should have said something like Jirachi, Shaymin or Darkrai.
I said Darkrai.
And wished to see an Emerald remake. 8D
... Come to think of it... Manaphy, Meloetta, Genesect works too.
New Pokemon GO! news:
Quote from: WPM
In an interview with VenutureBeat, Niantic's John Hanke and Mike Quigley revealed various new details about Pokemon Go, including that it will feature real-life Pokemon Gyms. Check out the full interview for all the details. Here's the main points:
- Pokemon GoNinantic (the game's developer) has raised $30 million in funding from Google, Nintendo, and The Pokemon Company.
- Pokemon Go will be made so that it can be played everywhere, from small towns with a 1,000 person population to larger areas like San Francisco. If the game could only be played in large areas, it would alienate most populations, so they wanted the game to work well everywhere.
- There will be Pokemon Gyms! Just like in the real games, you can train and level up your Pokemon here. However, Gyms will be hard to find, so you will want to make use of every one you come across.
- Pokemon will be readily available almost as soon as you walk outside of your house – you can usually encounter a Pokemon within five minutes, though it might not be the rarest Pokemon. This means that no matter where you are, you will always see a Pokemon. There will be a population of Pokemon living near every player.
- Different Pokemon will live in different parts of the world. For example, Water Pokemon will be in areas with lots of water. Legendary Pokemon will be in very few locations.
- You will have to trade Pokemon with other players to catch them all unless you plan to travel the world (and they expect there will be dedicated individuals who will actually do that). You can always trade with a friend in another area to get what you need though.
- The "Pokemon Go Plus" device will vibrate when you're near a Pokemon. After pressing a certain button sequence, you can capture that Pokemon and look at it later on your app.
- There's a large possibility of live events for Pokemon Go, similar to what Ninantic has done for Ingress. (Imagine if The Pokemon Company partners up with retailers or businesses to offer special Pokemon at their locations – would be a good way for TPCi to make money. /theory)
- There will be a Team function where you can be part of teams with other Trainers and compete against other teams. How this will work was not detailed.

Sounds very interesting indeed.
I am really looking forward to this game.
Officially hyped.
Time to save up money for a trip around the world in 80 days. XD
I wonder what legendary Pokemon will exist here in NYC.
Maybe one of the Unovan legendaries.
Say... Victini, haha. XD
Oh good, Gettysburg will have Pokemon!
I don't travel much (no monies), so going to certain places won't be feasible. However, it's good to know that I'll still have catching opportunities.
I want a Hypno. GIMME :W
*notices Skitty also blinks*
How?!
Just like how Brock can see!
I got a Shiny Cryogonal with Perfect IVs in everything except Attack. Also came with a Never-Melt Ice.
I really underestimated how unremarkable looking shiny Seaking are, it's almost as bad as Shiny Garchomp........
I got a shiny Delibird named Santa.
I had a Linoone named Christmas.......
All in the holiday mood, haha.
After all the hatching, finally decided to rest ORAS (although I have yet to do the contest spectacular...).
And play Moemon FireRed. 8D
I'm probably going to Wonder Trade all my Torchics for Christmas. Along with some other things.
It is possible to get all three starters? I really cannot decide between any of them. :'(
Trade with people.
So, I was playing with my shiny Gardevoir waifu and she gave me Mysterious Eggs.
My Pokemon love me in a very special way~ 8D

Buy both games, and self-trade.
GTS is also your friend.
Or, just ask someone to breed some starters for you.
I was just derping around in an Ice Safari (VC's Ice Safari, if I recall), and my nephews were watching me try to find the third Pokemon when I fiND A SHINY SNORUNT O3O
Her name is Elsa, her stats are meh, BUT SHINEH~
She's gonna be a beautiful evil Glalie~
I would have imagined Froslass would represent Elsa more but Froslass doesn't have a Mega Evolution......yet. Not to mention I think Glaie looks coller as a Shiny than Froslass. I believe people usually use Froslass as Suicide Leads with Destiny Bond since she has high Speed and crap everything else.
They also freeze people and keep them as Ice Trophies.
I have shiny Froslass, so I'm set on those. I want a shiny Glalie because EVIL RED EYES
Oh yeah I forgot you have a Shiny Froslass, in that case go nuts with Exploding Mega Glalie.
Shiny Froslass is a meh shiny anyway. Pretty belt, but that's it.
Yeah it's about as interesting as Shiny Jynx, but at least Jynx tunrs into a Platinum Blond.
Evolved Elsa and now she's evil.
She can chew your head off! D:
I played with her in Amie and she's frightening. D:
Let it Go is like Hypno's Lullaby now. D:
It can't be as bad as Porygon Z in Amie.
But Porygon-Z is a GOOD glitch!
It's just unsettling man.
Gonna post my status of Moemon FireRed because. :P
Cleared Victory Road, so I'm just grinding my team to lvl60 before I Tackle the Elite 4 and [chameleon sting]ing Green Oak.
Pidgeot-chan and Nidoking-chan are both at lvl60.
Currently grinding Charizard-chan, who's at lvl52.
Blastoise-chan, Venusaur-chan and Raichu-chan are all lvl53.
... Pidgeot-chan really looks like Skyla to me...
Is there a Hypno-chan? Can I see it?
There are chans everywhere!
... Let me see if Google turns up anything. If not, I'll take a screenshot when I get back.
Double-posting, haha. 8D
(http://i60.tinypic.com/j5yzgm.jpg)
Google has it after all. :3
AAAAAAA CUTE~
And shiny pink nightie~
A lot of the Moemon is just plain DAAAAAAW.
Some... Looked too mature to be moe, haha. XD

*UGUU* O3O
Now I wanna play Moemon...
There's a lot of crazy Pokemon romhacks out there, there's even a Touhou-mon version that's like Moe Mon but with Touhou characters who have different types than the Kanto Pokemon if I remember correctly.
Yea, Touhoumon has different elemental rock-paper-scissors as well iirc.
I'm still planning on getting my nephew a GBA emulator and some roms. Though, his tablet is on the fritz, so that's not an option currently.
He also needs to learn some basic fundamentals about Pokemon overall; like how Strength isn't everything, and how he should focus on at least half a team and not on one single Pokemon. He'll be shocked to learn that he doesn't get Legendaries right at the start (no hacked versions for him), and how he'll *gasp* have to train his Pokemon!
He uses the "all power single Pokemon" strategy with the card game, which will bite him right in the butt should he actually play against someone who knows what they're doing.
I used to have a deck based around the original quite broken Rayquaza ex card (http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/b/be/RayquazaexEXDragon97.jpg) from way back. It sucked because I had too many Pokemon that can give me the energy I need to power up Rayquaza's sole energy discarding attack... But the Pokemon cannot fight back whatsoever. XD
Also had a deck with base set Mewtwo (http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/8/84/MewtwoBaseSet10.jpg), 55 Psychic energy, and 4 Maintenance (http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/4/4e/MaintenanceBaseSet83.jpg). The whole point was to use Barrier, and stall the game into making the opponent lose by drawing out his/her whole deck. Never tried it to see if it really worked. 8D
as for moemon, I'll PM you the link when I get back, Quickie.
Even those decks have a strategy behind them. My nephew's strategy is to grab whatever strongest Pokemon he has and hope the other player has nothing but crap in their deck. And even then, he barely knows how to use the Pokemon he picked.
I should devise a deck made up of really underrated cards and weak Pokemon, but with so many support cards that it'll take out that Groudon he got for Christmas.
Though, it is a Groudon, so I could take it out with a garden hose. :P
A GROUDON FOR CHRISTMAS!? D:
and that hose will do nothing but roast. 8D
He got the winning TCG deck with Primal Groudon EX for Christmas and he has no idea how to use it.
ENVY
Ahem... Time to Google said winning deck!
I WON THE MASTER BALL IN THE LOTTERY
Wow congrats on that.
Aaaannnnnd someone just Wonder Traded me a Celebi named Pizza Hut.
Well people claim that Celebi looks like an onion......
Just got a THIRD hacked shiny Yveltal.

Just got a THIRD hacked shiny Yveltal.
... Ffffffff-
Y'know what I should do?
Go have a triple battle with all three.
TRIPLE OBLIVION WING :W
Soooo.... which restaurant should fall victim to the Yveltal Squad? 8D
THE 3-STAR ONE
At Le Wow and so begins the Yveltal Triple Battle...
...
Realized that these guys are too low level, so I have some backups...
Somehow, they survived the first battle. I still have other Pokemon in case these two lvl ~50 Yveltal need help. Only one is at the right level. :B
Onto the next battle...
Audino uses Protect because [dark hold]. Amoonguss puts Yveltal to sleep, so switching in Prof. Hypno. Got the other two Yveltal ganging up on Audino. Battle took longer than I planned.
Third battle...
Shieldon avoids the Heat Wave, Milotic uses Blizzard, Shieldon uses Taunt... Yveltal gets the Heat Wave on the second turn. Milotic is being a real pain in the ass. So, gonna gang up on it.
Didn't need to switch in a backup this time. Fourth battle...
Floatzel uses Protect, but I'm throwing out a Heat Wave so whatever. Concentrating on the Togekiss and Lucario mostly. Lucario is a pussy and uses Protect. Togekiss is a pussy and uses Protect. Heat Wave falls flat. [tornado fang] that Floatzel and its Protect spam. Battle is taking [tornado fang]ing forever due to Protect spam. [tornado fang] that Floatzel. It's hanging on by a thread.
Time for a Yveltal gang-beat on the Floatzel. It's down. One turn over the recommended amount thanks to Protect spam. Onto the final battle...
Heat Wave to start in case there's any spammers and I like me some spread-fire. Took out the Chatot. Gonna keep that strategy. Took out the Exploud on the second turn. Gang-beat on the Aurorus...
Battle went swimmingly. Off to sell my Balm Mushrooms. That was amusing.
Yea... Always hated the team of Togekiss/Lucario/Floatzel.
Either way, the phoenixes of death brought you profit!!
AND PLENTY OF DEATH AND DESTRUCTION :W
The Bacon Bird Crew grew several levels during the battle. The restaurant Pokemon had a 13-level advantage over EminemRapGod and Yveltal #1, whereas Yveltal #2 was at the same level. If it wasn't for the Amoonguss using Spore, I probably wouldn't have switched out to a backup. But, we had a sleep-inducer and Prof. Hypno is my switch-in to counter that.
After a few battles, I started to get a feel for using Yveltal and around the last battle, I actually had a strategy.
HEY GAIS
Pokemon Spin-Offs (http://www.dorkly.com/post/76787/bizarre-pokemon-spinoffs?ref=homepage)
We know of most, if not all of them already. But, the first one has burned an image into my brain that I will never unsee.
[spoiler]Clefairy dick.[/spoiler]
[spoiler]Oh yes... That Clefairy... Chuangyi used to translate it... Never bought it though, haha. XD[/spoiler]
*WILL NEVER UNSEE*
*FLAILS*
Though, one of these days, I really need to sit down and watch Pokemon Live.
Aye. Me too. I never knew such a thing existed until I joined RPM back in the day. XD
It will give me cringes like never before, but these cringes must be experienced to be a true Pokemon fan!
I just beat Green Oak in my Moemon FireRed.
Venusaur-chan lvl60
Charizard-chan lvl60
Blastoise-chan lvl62
Pidgeot-chan lvl60
Raichu-chan lvl61
Nidoking-chan lvl60
Game time: 38:10
... Which all means nothing...
BECAUSE THE GAME CAN'T AUTOSAVE :(
SO NO CONTINUE O^O
NO POSTGAME :'(
IT ALL RESETS TO NOTHING ;^;
...
...
Hopefully... Moemon Emerald doesn't have this issue...
Not even save states can save it? ;3;
I have a savestate right at the "The End" screen...
... IT DOESN'T WORK ;^;
NUUUUUUUUUUUUU ;A;
So much for playing it... I'll just draw pics of the cute Hypmoe.
I'm going to Google some more, and hopefully, what I have planned in my head works...
[spoiler]Basically, find a FireRed rom that doesn't have this in-game save issue, patch it with the Moemon patch, and hope that my savestate can work with the new patched rom.[/spoiler]
Oh, after battling in Le Wow, I went to talk to the Maid at the back and she showed me to the bathroom.
You can go to the bathroom.
YOU CAN GO TO THE BATHROOM
... WHAT'S INSIDE!?
It just fades to black. But YOU CAN POOP.
LOL I DIDNT KNOW THAT
GO TO LE WOW AND POOP
I MUST GO TO LE WOW AND POOP
[spoiler]Also, I managed to find a saveable FireRed rom. I'll moe-ify it and test it out.[/spoiler]
[spoiler]Well... The in-game save function does work!
... But the moemon patch turns Pallet City into Glitch City.
GEN1 GLITCH CITY WITH GEN3 TILESET
Once I exit my house, I cannot enter it ever again. Also cannot enter Rival's house... Nor Oak's Lab. The forced Oak event, where I try to go into Route 1 without a Pokemon (after some difficulty...), will get me into the lab, but I cannot return inside again to deliver Oak's Parcel.
So... The game is unwinnable. Right at the very start. ._.
Just to confirm, I tried the unpatched FireRed rom. Pallet Town was just fine. ._.
Also, I tried my savestate from my previous moemon game. Apparently because that savestate is based on the in-game save function of the previous game... It can't save over into the current in-game save function.
I CAN'T PLAY MY MOEMONSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS ;~;[/spoiler]
Go to Le Wow and poop your disappointment. ;3;
[spoiler]I'm just going to play unpatched FireRed... And maybe after I have cleared everything in the postgame... I'll apply the moemon patch again. >.>
... And now, even unpatched is starting to show... Problems... <.<[/spoiler]
TO LE WOW ;3;
Sounds like a bad rom in general to me.
Well, the problem earlier with the unpatched was a false alarm.
With the reset, I now have:
Squirtle lvl8 <- starter
Bulbasaur lvl7
Charmander lvl9
Pidgey lvl9
How exactly did you get more than one starter?
Simple.

Just curbstomped Brock, and my team is shaping up nicely.
Squirtle lvl12
Bulbasaur lvl14
Charmander lvl12
Pidgey lvl12
Pikachu lvl12
Onwards to Route 3 to get my Nidoran (M)!
That too. XD
Caught my Nidoran (M), he's currently lvl13.
Will grind my whole team to lvl15 before I head into Mt. Moon.
Misty's down... Her Starmie is still evil...
And one-shot Lt. Surge's Raichu with a Dig from my Nidoking.
Current team:
Wartortle lvl22
Ivysaur lvl21
Charmeleon lvl21
Pidgeotto lvl21
Pikachu lvl24
Nidoking lvl25
... I might be a bit overlevelled, haha. Gonna clear out Route 11 before heading back to Cerulean City and make my way to Rock Tunnel.
The Shiny Xerneas event is live in Japan, let's see if Quickie can get 3 shiny hacked Xerneas.
ON IT
*goes to Wonder Trade*
On the shiny Xerneas Wonder Trade front... Nothing yet. Though, I did snag a Darkrai off GTS for a Metapod.
DARKRAI O^O
Erika's down after some effort, Rocket Hideout cleared, Pokemon Tower cleared, caught both Snorlax.
Current team:
Blastoise lvl36
Ivysaur lvl30
Charmeleon lvl35
Pidgeotto lvl28
Raichu lvl35
Nidoking lvl35
Gonna grind Pidgeotto with some Doduo before heading to Route 12.
Mmmm... Grinding...
I will baby Darkrai and feed him Puffs~
Lurking on Wonder Trade. Current hauls: shiny Ponyta and a shiny Ditto.
Oh my god I've always wanted a Shiny Ponyta, lucky!
Well, this is my second. Whatcha got to offer for it?
Would a Torchic be alright, or is there anything in particular you would want?
I'm kinda looking for a Sylveon, but I'll take a Torchic. Ready when you are.
Yeah don't have a Sylveon lying around. Let me just put the game in.
Enjoy your new Ponyta~
Eeeeeeee, I have a shiny Epee now! 0v0
i have rarely seen you this happy
I think I'll pick up X again and try and get a bit more playtime into it. I've been neglecting it lately.
Hey, you wanna know some dumb shiny luck? I was horde-chaining for a shiny Trevenant and caught another shiny Foonguss. Because Trevenant is trolling me.
Foongus are so cute. :3

I think I'll pick up X again and try and get a bit more playtime into it. I've been neglecting it lately.
Should have seen me when I got a Shiny Nintales and Bulbasaur, though I'm pretty sure the Nintales was possibly hacked. My Shiny luck may not be as ridiculous as Quickie, but it's pretty decent all things considered. I just wished I could have gotten a Shiny Mareep when I got that shiny Ampharos.
My shiny luck works best on Wonder Trade. In-game during horde hunts and general hunts and breeding... not so much. Both breeding stints took about about 1300 eggs each, and only one horde hunt gave me the shiny I wanted. The Safari shinies are encountered by sheer chance.
Wonder Trade has knocked more shinies off my shiny wishlist than any actual hunt.
>attack ev training nidoking on route 18
>shiny doduo appears
>mfw
>CAUGHT
The second shiny Foonguss went to a friend, so that shiny isn't available anymore. I've been sending Hatching Powers to them, as they're shiny breeding, so my Hatching Power is now at lvl3!
ANYONE NEED HATCHING POWERS? 8D
Got a Japanese shiny Bayleef. AUTUMN GRASS TYPE~
Oh man that's awesome, let me know if you get a second one somehow.
Anyway I'm looking at the Darkrai Ruri gave me years ago which I believed he cloned or something.....and noticed it had Spacial Rend and Roar of Time. Thank god I don't use Legendaries because that is some crazy hax there. He can't even learn those in an Event.
Got a shiny Haunter (now a Gengar) from someone trading Breedjects.
Poor Shiny Gengar.

But there was an event Darkrai with those moves... The movie Darkrai. *checks*
EDIT: Yep, Gen4 event. (http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Darkrai_(Pok%C3%A9mon)/Generation_IV_learnset#By_events)
Ah I see, didn't think to click the Gen 4 button, that at least makes me feel better.
Ruri clones legit event mons. *nods*
I'm thinking of a sad backstory for Kidnapper the Hypno. Maybe he did kidnap a child, but maybe that child was in an abusive family and the Hypno wanted to rescue the kid. So, he broke in, hypnotized and took the kid to save them. But, since he's wild and incapable of properly communicating with humans, he was hunted down. The Hypno and the kid were found and the Hypno was captured and dubbed "Kidnapper" by the media frenzy surrounding the case.
Though... would a wild Pokemon be punished for interfering with human lives? Maybe Kidnapper was sent to a wildlife rehab for a while. Maybe he was kept in seclusion because people feared that he would get out and keep on going after humans. So, Kidnapper was deprived of contact with other Pokemon and only really interacted with his handlers, and maybe the public became so involved that they deemed Kidnapper a public menace. Maybe he was scheduled to be destroyed.
Until someone decided to adopt him. After crawling through considerable red tape, a Trainer managed to secure the permits to adopt Kidnapper, and they took him home, where he'd be cared for and loved. And Kidnapper the Hypno would have a happy ending~
Aww... *hugs Kidnapper*
Finally reached Indigo Plateau... But I'll grind until lvl65 before I Tackle the Elite 4 and Green Oak.
My team:
Blastoise lvl61
Venusaur lvl62
Charizard lvl60
Pidgeot lvl61
Raichu lvl60
Nidoking lvl62
I got a Ho-Oh through Wonder Trade and I need to take some time to organize my PC and make another box for Legendaries. I have so many Legendaries that they require three boxes.
Speaking of legendaries...
Apparently, the third Pokemon movie (the one with Entei and Unowns) wasn't the original script. The original script had a rampaging T. Rex fossil. Not Tyrantrum mind you, a REAL T. Rex fossil. And it would also address an age-old question of whatever happened to real-life animals in the Pokemon world.
Pokebeach (http://www.pokebeach.com/2016/01/original-script-for-3rd-pokemon-movie-involved-a-t-rex) mentioned it, but it's Dogasu (http://dogasu.bulbagarden.net/movies/pm_lord_unknown_tower_entei/lord_unknown_tower_entei_mythical_third_movie.html) that has the main article.
I have not watched the third movie myself... But the original script sounded interesting too.

Charizard lvl65
Pidgeot lvl65
Raichu lvl66
Nidoking lvl65
... AND THERE'S POSTGAME TO CLEAR
So, it successfully saved?
Oh, and post a pic of Moetwo when you catch her~
I've been wondering if I would prefer Nidoking or Nidoqueen in a Gen 3 game, it's a very hard decision I mean they're mostly the same but their differences makes it difficult for me.

Well, I've always liked the more offense-orientated Nidoking over the more defense-orientated Nidoqueen. Plus Nidoking is speedier.
Blastoise - Ice Beam, Bite, Surf, Water Gun
Venusaur - Cut, Sleep Powder, Leech Seed, Razor Leaf
Charizard - Strength, Flamethrower, Ember, Rock Smash
Pidgeot - Fly, Wing Attack, Gust, Quick Attack
Raichu - Thundershock, Quick Attack, Thunderbolt, Thunder Wave
Nidoking - Dig, Thrash, Megahorn, Double Kick
Completed the Ruby/Sapphire quest to "connect" to the Hoenn region... Lorelei has returned to the Elite 4, and have solved the puzzle at Tanoby Key.
... Time to catch all 28 kinds on Unowns in the Tanoby Chambers. ._.
I got a Master Ball from the Lottery!
Looks like everything's coming up Master Ball! 8D
I haven't gotten any Shinies lately though. The Shiny Ponyta is almost 40 and I'm still a few Levels away from my Lopunny learn High Jump Kick.
I got a Shiny Deoxys, it's most likely hacked because it has 6 perfect IVs.
EDIT: Now I have a Shiny Diancie and it doesn't have perfect IVs in all Stats for once. Also has an Ability Capsule.
It's finally time for Hoopa... NEXT WEEK :\
Code cards :/
At least it's not some exclusive event you have to go to like in the Gen 3 days. Especially when it involved e Reader cards which most likely would be worn away today.
Or a Pre Order Bonus Disk, which I still have.
Wifi is just easier, because people take all the cards and sell them, and Nintendo don't care.
Besides, as far as Ruby+Sapphire goes, I have Pokemon Channel for downloading Jirachi, and my e-Reader has EonTicket on it :)
It feels like you haven't posted in forever.

Hooray Hoopa!
Got a shiny Pidgeot.
After hours running around trying to catch Unown !... I FINALLY caught all 28 Unown types.
Gonna catch some balance Safari Zone Pokemon (Parasect, Kangaskhan, Scyther, Dratini, Dragonair) before I starting grinding my team to lvl80 to tackle the upgraded Elite 4 and Green Oak.
Oh yea, Water Gun on Blastoise has been replaced with Waterfall. :P
Has anyone heard anything about the next Pokemon game? Like the next real installment, not Pokemon Go?
It usually takes them two years to make the next Pokemon game, which means that it should be arriving in the US later this year and in Japan this summer. Since Pokemon Go isn't being developed by GameFreak, it's safe to assume that GameFreak is working on a new 3DS title--or maybe it'll be a launch title for the NX's mobile companion.
Nothing has been said yet, I'm hoping the next issue of Coro Coro will have something on that. As for the NX that's going to be announced at E3 so I don't think it would be for the NX.

You think it may be too optimistic to hope they're bringing back trainer customization?
If it's in Kalos I'm sure there will be customizations with more clothes and possibly hair styles. Gen 7 I'm not sure about, except we'll most likely have Sinnoh remakes assuming DS games are not compatible with the NX if it is indeed some Hybrid console.

That's what the rumors say about the NX. It's going to be a console/handheld hybrid. Then again, maybe I shouldn't be putting so much stock into patents that Nintendo may not end up using for the NX.
I really hope trainer customization comes back. That's been something I always wanted the Pokemon games to have. When it was given to me in X/Y and then ripped away in ORAS, it was jarring to say the least.
My justification is they don't want to wear fancy clothes while Diving, in this game you actually get a maguffin that let's you breath underwater because it makes sense, even though that wasn't in the original game.
But yeah the NX patents are all over the place, weird controllers, cloud based systems, I just want to wait for some confirmation than assume anything.
The Pokemon games have a sad habit of one-offing a feature that makes the game feel more personal (remember how we could have ANY Pokemon out of its Pokeball in HG/SS?). I certainly WANT customization to come back, but I agree with Sakura in that it's unlikely unless they intend to revisit Kalos. But God, I hope I'm wrong.
I suppose we can take some encouragement in that X/Y was actually the second trainer customization game, after Battle Revolution. Not that there was much else to that one, but hey, it also let you change your battle text, which was cool.
Yeah I liked what they did with Battle Revolution and you could change your age too more or less.
But yeah I mean as cool as Pokemon following you was I can't help but think they would have a hard time making a Wailord follow you or restrict it to Pokemon of a certain size in a 3D game. I did like having unique surfing models though for certain Pokemon. Sharpedo made the Water routes much more tolerable thanks to his increased Surfing Speed.
While its unlikely to happen, given Pokemon's target audience, it would be interesting to play as an adult at least once. It would certainly change the formula a bit. Maybe you work at a PokeMart for a few years and you get tired of these entitled trainer kids coming in and demanding Masterballs all the time. :P
Maaan, Pokemon GO is going to take over my life! XD
I'm still very skeptical of GO. :\
Quote from: Sakura Crockett on January 10, 2016, 09:18:27 PM
I'm still very skeptical of GO. :\
I like the idea of it, but I'm also skeptical of its execution. There's a reason why GameFreak hasn't done a Pokemon MMO and it's the reason why I'm leery of Pokemon Go. The Pokemon games have a very strict progression. The progression doesn't work when you think about it as a world, but I'm willing to guess nobody here really cares about that. The game is designed to make the player stronger as they progress into new areas. This can't be the case if every trainer in the game was replaced with another player. It builds a very anti-newbie environment from the beginning.
If Pokemon Go has trainer battles, it'll become difficult to compete with other trainers pretty quickly for most people. A hostile environment toward new players is poison for MMOs. While Pokemon Go isn't exactly an MMO, it has the potential to be. Just saying that competitive online Pokemon battles only lures in a specific minority of Pokemon players. Most players play Pokemon casually. It's a recipe for a lot of toxicity if the game doesn't have proper mechanics in place to not allow preying on weaker trainers.
But it's not an MMO. It's real life Pokemon!!!
But we can't hold them, and hug them and call them George.....
I'm hugging Cyndaquil right now! XD
My Chespin is too tiny.....
My Sylveon is too small too. :|
I'm also not willing to spend $45 on a huggable Chespin either.....
Is Pokemon Go just about catching Pokemon or do you raise them by fighting other Pokemon too? I never really saw anything that talked about it that much other than: it's Pokemon IRL, yo! :3
I think you raise and maybe trade, but like I said I'm not getting my hopes up until we see it.
It's kinda funny because when they announced Pokemon Go, my initial reaction was that I thought it was cool. Then I thought about it for a second and thought, "I hope this doesn't mean there isn't going to be a 3DS Pokemon game in 2016." At the end of the day, I would rather have a real Pokemon game than some gimmicky spin-off.
I'm sure there's going to be something in the next Coro Coro, I'm really curious about how those Zygarde forms are going to fit into the games. Also wonder if Mega Butterfree and Fearow would be a thing.

Mega Butterfree?! Really? Butterfree is almost always in my starting party. It's pretty good in the early game. Adding a mega evolution would finally give me a reason to keep it longer. Butterfree is actually one of my favorite Pokemon, for some reason.
I mean they gave Beedrill one so why not I say.
mega creep is going to be a problem in future games. i mean, look at mega ray.

That's actually why Colosseum is one of my favorites: You're playing as a renegade from the evil team, and it's the only time you're given the role of an experienced trainer.
Also it's the only game where I felt the need to raise/bond with your Pokemon was properly executed in gameplay. Any other game just has you leaving droves of critters rotting away in storage.
I thought a third Kalos game (Z, or XY&Z to concide with the anime) is pretty much a given by this point, since they made Zygarde into a morphing thing now. Like how Rayquaza and Giratina before.
... Unless they go the way with Kyurem and have sequels to XY instead. X2Y2 anyone?
WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP FORGETTING MY X^2 Y^2 IDEA I WAS SO PROUD OF THAT BUT it hurts my feelings ;_;
Also @Yuffie, the protags age keeps increasing. XY protags are around 17ish IIRC so we might actually get a fully-fledged adult if the cycle continues.
I'M SO SORRY I DIDN'T MEAN TO HURT YOUR FEELINGS O^O
Actually, the only confirmed older protags are Hilda/Hilbert. The ages of Serena/Calem really depends on their clothing, but their default implies either about, or slightly younger than Hilda/Hilbert.
I'm not sure what my source is but I definitely recall seeing them consistently cited as being older than BW protags. Maybe I'm wrong.
Well, it's one of Pokemon 7 greatest secrets, so there's always speculation about the protags, haha. XD

Yeah I'm sure they definitely aren't, I say somewhere between 14-16 max.
EDIT: Actually the BW protags are listed as 14+ and 16+ in B2W2 according to Bulbapedia. XY protags are ambiguous, but I still say younger than Hilda and Hilbert. Rosa and Nate are also ambiguous, but I'm pretty sure Red and Blue are 11 in the original games and May and Brendan seem to be 12.

I thought that they looked older, but I wasn't sure they were that old. I thought they were 14 or something. Still what I would consider kids. They trainers from BW2, on the other hand, look like they may be older teens.

Mythical Pokemon Events
[spoiler]It has been announced that the Mythical Pokémon are all to receive special distributions for the Pokémon games starting in February 2016. These are Mew, Celebi, Jirachi, Manaphy, Darkrai, Shaymin, Arceus, Victini, Keldeo, Meloetta and Genesect. We'll bring full details on these as they come. Mew will be distributed from February 1st through February 24th at Gamestop, unknown elsewhere while Celebi will run from March 1st through March 24th on the Nintendo Network, Jirachi in April on the Nintendo Network, Darkrai in May at Gamestop, Manaphy in June via Nintendo Network, Shaymin in July via Nintendo Network, Arceus in August via Gamestop, Victini in September via Nintendo Network, Keldeo in October via Nintendo Network, Genesect in November at Gamestop in the US, unknown elsewhere and Meloetta in December via Nintendo Network
[/spoiler]
Standard size New 3DS bundles.
[spoiler]For those of you in the US, a special New Nintendo 3DS bundle has also been announced for the 20th anniversary. This bundle comes packed with two coverplates featuring Charizard and Blastoise as well as Red & Blue pre-installed on the system as well as an exclusive Pokémon Nintendo 3DS theme. It's not currently known what this theme will include.[/spoiler]
2DS bundles for Europe, no news for US 2DS bundles just yet if they will show up.
[spoiler]Following their announcement in Japan on Christmas, it has now been confirmed that the Pokémon Red, Blue and Yellow 2DS bundles are to be released in Europe. These bundles contain the coloured 2DSs as well as a copy of the Virtual Console game, a code for a special console theme, most likely matching their Japanese counterparts, and various stickers of Pokémon.[/spoiler]
Lol, why are those spoiler'd?? 8D
Separation and size space so it doesn't look like a wall of text more or less.
>jirachi WiFi [tornado fang] yes
>manaphy WiFi [tornado fang] yes
>darkrai GameStop goddarnit
We'll make sure to get you codes when the time comes.
I wuv yew all :3
I haven't bought a New 3DS. There's just been no real reason to jump that ship. I was tempted when I saw those Pokemon bundles, though. Not going to happen, but I was still tempted regardless. Unless the new Pokemon game coming out (maybe) later this year is a New 3DS exclusive, I don't see myself buying another 3DS.
Yeah that's understandable, only reason I got one was because I had the original 3DS and for Xenoblade Chronicles 3D when I eventually get it.
(http://o.aolcdn.com/hss/storage/midas/5e8748ca3201127f5c1bae486368c8ed/203249478/New3DS_PRB_Render.jpg)
I admittedly would love that classic Charizard faceplate!
I really like that Blastoise one myself, shame we never had a Pokemon Green since I would like a Venusaur one too. *o*
Well the next Coro Coro has been leaked but so far it only has info on the Volcanion movie with the Febuary 15th issue having more info on it was well. It's been revealed that Volcanion hates humans and we don't know why, next one teases a reveal that will change the entire world of the movie. I'm guessing perhaps a Volcanion form maybe. There was also some more Pokken Tournament stuff too.
Guess we may need to wait for the March one or the next Nintendo direct for Pokemon Z/whatever.
I blame Lysandre. *nods*
For Volcanion hating humans or lack of Pokemon Z news?
BOTH! :W
I thought they already said they weren't going to make Pokemon Z--I would love to have it, though.
I don't think they said anything firm one way or the other, only that they try not to do something so predictable when they can help it.
I took that with a shaker of salt: Who here DIDN'T see "Emerald Version" coming as soon as they laid eyes on Rayquaza in Gen3?

I expect the next Pokemon may be New 3DS enhanced, but it most certainly will not be New exclusive. Pokemon games always drag their feet when it comes to hardware.
Yeah, Xenoblade and Smash screenshots on Miiverse are about the only things that make New 3DS relevant.
In non-main-series news, three new fighters were announced for Pokken Tournament: Braixen, Garchomp, and the standard non-Shadow Mewtwo.

I look forward to Mewtwo beating up his own evil self. A shame there's no Dragonite, but life ain't perfect.
First three Pokemon movies are seeing a Blu-Ray release. ...and I'm really kicking myself for buying probable bootleg DVDs of the first two off of eBay a few months back. O:<

Didn't hear anything like that what so ever but with the anime arc called XY and Z it's likely to be Z, however with B2W2 I can't say for sure it's Z either hench Pokemon Z/whatever.
EDIT: Also had another idea for a name if they made a X and Y sequel instead of the third expansion pack version, X^Z and Y^Z instead of XZ and YZ or X^2 and Y^2.
Z^X, Z^Y since Zygarde is the focus!
Back when they first first announced XY, I thought a third Z was inevitable because it seems weird to leave it at XY. Why would they stop one letter short of the end of the alphabet?
It would be like having a Zelda series of games based on the Triforce and only releasing two games instead of three--wait.
Everyone was expecting Gray/Grey back in Gen5 after Black/White.
Instead, we got Black 2/White 2.
Nothing's for sure. We are speculating names. They might stick to Z in the end, kudos if they do.

The difference between the Oracle games and Pokemon is the Pokemon versions don't have different story lines to continue into it's the same thing from a different point of view. Besides that was during the late GBC/early GBA when the technology limitations compromised and complicated the idea of having 6 different scenarios instead of 2 depending on which order you played the games, it's not really relevant here in the 3DS era.
I never expected a Gray. It wouldn't fit the Pokemon name theming. They have never done a third game that is a mix of the first two game's names. Any third (or fourth) game in a generation has always had a name that stood on its own within the theme. Yellow wasn't Purple. BW was the first generation that I didn't think there would be a third game because the name theme didn't support one.
Well Kyurem is Grey and it kind of fit into the Yin/Yang morality theme of Black and White. Not to mention Kyurem is based off of Wujin which is the absence of Yin and Yang so Grey would have made sense.
Perhaps, but going with the color themes of the cover legendaries of Gen 5, White (Reshiram) and Black (Zekrom), Grey/Gray (Kyurem) might have worked out.
I got also say the same that the third games were mix of the first two games, which Gen 5 broke the streak by being pure sequels.

I guess that's true. Thinking about this, though, just reminded how dumb the name theme was in Diamond, Pearl, Platinum. Diamond is a quartz crystal; Pearl is just polished sand (not a gem stone); Platinum is a metal. What the heck was that about?
Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald mirrored the Red/Blue/Green coloring of Gen 1.
Just throwing that out there.

Getting back to Pokemon Z, it actually hadn't occurred to me that they might do a BW2 thing on us and make Pokemon Z two new games that continue XY's story. I would eat that [parasitic bomb] up.

You know what's weird? RBY's eShop release date is the day before my birthday (February 27) and I originally received Pokemon Red and Blue for my birthday in 1998. So I'm most likely going to be getting those games again for my birthday (for myself) 18 years later. That feels weird to me.
Also, realizing that I got my first Pokemon games 18 years ago makes me feel old. ;O;
Before the new Pokken character reveal tomorrow, has anyone made a list of all the candidates with a "ra" in their Japanese name? Cause I did. And it's wild how many of them could actually work.
[spoiler]Metapod (lol)
Rattata and Raticate
Raichu (troll pick of the forever)
Nidoran F and Nidoran M
Vileplume

Lanturn
Umbreon (it would be weird if this was the only Eevolution to make it)
Murkrow and Honchkrow
Gligar and Gliscor
Granbull
Heracross (would be an obvious pick, but it is in the background of a stage already so...)
Sneasel (highly doubtful cause we have Weavile already)
Raikou (I think Suicune is enough)
Larvitar, Pupitar, and Tyranitar (last one could work)
Swampert (we have the other Hoenn starters so why not?)
Mightyena
Silcoon (see Metapod)
Ralts (again, we have Gardevoir)
Sableye

Solosis, Duosion, and Reuniclus
Vanillish

Reshiram
Landorus
Spewpa (see Metapod and Silcoon)
Flabebe, Floette, and Florges
Malamar
Dragalge
Tyrunt and Tyrantrum
Goomy (lol)[/spoiler]
There were some others that are already confirmed to be supporters, like Jirachi. Also some of these do appear in backgrounds, but that doesn't necessarily discount them from being playable.
That's a lot. D:

Started training Kidnapper. I set him up with an experimental moveset (Grass Knot, Dazzling Gleam, Shadow Ball, Psyshock), got him rated (meh with decent SpDef), and started playing with him in Amie.
Then I got his memory read.
Kidnapper got teary-eyed when I gave him treats. ;3;
I got a Shiny Squirtle named Squad with perfect IVs in HP, Special Attack and Speed, Modest Nature, Rain Dish Hidden Ability and has Dragon Pulse and Aura Sphere. I'm training this little adorable guy.
EDIT: Perfect IVs are actually in HP, Defense, Sp Att, Sp Def and Speed.
After finally grinding my team to lvl85... Time for E4 part 2.5!
[spoiler]Still can't OHKO Dewgong... But at least Lapras, first Gengar can be OKHO, and ALMOST OHKO Misdreavus and Arbok. I wasn't expecting to OHKO second Gengar anyways.[/spoiler]
At 59:06, game cleared. Time to tackle the last obstacle. Cerulean Cave, and Mewtwo Moetwo.

Hmm I'm thinking of raising an Arcanine, but I'm wondering how I can raise him to be a Mixed Attacker in terms of EV spread since I don't want to resort to using Flare Blitz and Outrage but also want to use Extreme Speed and Crunch.
Max speed is a must.
For me, I would split the balance 130/126, depending on which attack type you want more focus on.
I finally EV trained Squad and Coco the Lopunny finally learned High Jump Kick after 3,000 years. Seriously I love Mega Lopunny, I just hope we get more unexpected Mega Evolutions that are just as awesome as Mega Lopunny.

I named her Holly. Would've been great if male, but female BLOO is fine, too.
Tried to fit in "Golightly" but it wouldn't fit. Her full name is Holly Golightly, though.
Hehe, punny, yet fitting.
And I got Kidnapper's memory read again. Planting berries makes him happy. He's just so happy to be loved. ;3;
Awww... He's a gardener at heart. :3
I don't know why, but I feel BW Cookie, in reference to the classic Black and White Cookies, would be a good name for a Snorlax......
So the digital Manual for the VC Gen 1 games has been released, seems that unlike all the other games in the VC you can't set Restore Points and back up your save for some reason. Serebii theorizes that it's to prevent cloning Pokemon but maybe there were some limitations in order to enable the local trading so those other functions had to be sacrificed? Either way this isn't that big of a deal for me.
Holly evolved. Now she's a BLOO Gothitelle.
I still need to Evolve Squad into a Blastoise.
I never really liked the Gothita line. I started taking a shine to Gothitelle, but that was about it. Then I caught Holly and started training her and playing with her. Gothorita in Amie are adorable. Like an emo Kirlia.
Squad is now a Blastoise, purple turtle is purple. :D

So the digital Manual for the VC Gen 1 games has been released, seems that unlike all the other games in the VC you can't set Restore Points and back up your save for some reason. Serebii theorizes that it's to prevent cloning Pokemon but maybe there were some limitations in order to enable the local trading so those other functions had to be sacrificed? Either way this isn't that big of a deal for me.
You cannot clone Pokemon and/or rare candies?!! Awww.
I don't think that affects whether Missingno is in the game or not.
Pfft, rare candys.
Master Ball should be the cloned items.
was it mentioned if the VC version is a direct port of the original games? Or a tweaked version?
We're still not sure, but there has to be minor tweaking in order for local trading and battle to be possible, but I would think that would be all the tweaking that would be done.

You want Rare Candies? I have a big bag of Rare Candy. Not family size, not party size, but the big Costco bulk size bag of Rare Candy.
It's not compatible with Gen 1 though.
Gen1.5 you mean. :P
Eh I say 1.4 (Original Red and Green -> Updated Blue which the international Red and Blue were based on -> Yellow -> VC Gen 1 games).

Concept for a semi-realistic Gothitelle.
I didn't expect it to be so animalistic, I'm getting Radiant Historia flashbacks.
I like PokeGoats. Gardevoir and Gallade would be similar.
How would that work for Gardevoir and Gallade?
The hair on a Gardevoir would be horns like on a ram. Same basic body structure as the Gothitelle, with a similar face.

Got Kidnapper's memory read again. Getting him massaged makes him feel good. He's just so happy to be loved. ;3;
Massages always feel good. :3
Took Kidnapper on a horde hunt for a shiny Trevenant, and usually I just run from hordes to save on PP, and Kidnapper was still happy to run. He's so happy. O^O
Oh, and never found that shiny Trevenant. Found a third shiny Foongus instead.
Soon... SOOOOON!
Kidnapper started Super Training. He loves it. I won PP Ups in the lottery. He loves it. He loves everything, I love this Hypno~
A loving home was all he wanted. ;3;
He's such a sweetheart and I love him. ;3;

I just realized something.....they missed an opportunity to have a Fantina cameo in X and Y. Must have been because there were no Contests.
So... y'know Mewtwo vs Bicycle?
3,335 notes on Tumblr and counting.
I'm not surprise because it's so ridiculous.
*finally sees the Detective Pikachu video*
I'm intrigued.
Yeah if it comes to America I'll definitely get it.
Someone elsewhere commented that a talking Pokemon is strange.
Meowth says hi.
So they said that hearing a 40-year-old's voice come out of a Pokemon was strange.
Mewtwo says hi.
And then I rode a bike by him and he freaked out.

Yeah seriously I don't get that.
Also....if this does get a US release.....Pikachu should be voiced by Dan Green.
I support this, but at the same time, we'd end up with three Pokemon who all sound the same.
They could have a support group.
I guess, which other Pokemon does Dan Green voice besides Treekco?
EDIT: Ah Mewtwo and Entei.
Whoever voiced Looker in the anime could work.
Or the one that did Prof Oak in Origins.
You would think that we would have heard of something by know about a new main Pokemon game. 2016 is being called the "Year of Pokemon" because it's the 20th anniversary. There's a bunch of spin-off games, sure, but no news on a main Pokemon game? It just feels like if there was a new game coming out this year, there would be news by now. If a new game doesn't come out on the anniversary, that just seems like a missed opportunity.

Honestly as hilarious as it is I don't think DeVito would do it, he's never had a gig in Video Game voice acting. In fact Gottfried has a better shot since he voiced Iago in Kingdom Hearts but even then the guy is kind of controversial.
Gilbert Gottfried as Meowth though would be cool. Can we have that instead?

I'm gonna try and get into Gamestop soon and get you a Mew.
Mew mew! :3
I need to get me a Mew and later Arceus.
I might not be able to get to Gamestop until next week. Gonna be busy this weekend.
Oh, and update on Kidnapper. He did more Super Training the other day and he still loves it. I love this Hypno.
I got my Mew-put it on Alpha sapphire, not sure if I will ever use it. 8D
So is this Mew distribution only for ORAS?
No it's for X & Y too.
Okay so I can get one for my brother and 2 for myself. I could probably get some for Wily but I think 7 would be weird and excessive. :\
Does anyone have an extra Fennekin? I gave up my starter for reason because I was trading some Pokemon with a user and I was too deep into trading at the time. >_<

Oh hey, if I'm near a GameStop tomorrow, I can pick you up a Mew card as well, Wily!
Haha, when I went to the one near me, here's what happened...
GS Employee: "Hey, welcome to GameStop."
PB: "Hi. I am lo..."
GS Employee: /holds up Mew Cards "How many do you need?"
PB: "On.............T-Two???"
GS Employee: /hands me two cards
PB: "Thank you!"
Haha, so I got one for my Y game and one for Omega Ruby!
MOAR MEW! 8D
Hey Waifu I have a few extra Fennekins I can trade you later, I wasn't able to yesterday since my school's wi-fi doesn't exactly like doing stuff like that.
Okay so I went to Gamestop to get the Mews but unfortunately, for that Gamestop at least, they had a limit of 2 per customer. I'll be going to another tomorrow so I can get some more for my Brother and at least 1 for Wily.
I'm going tomorrow so I'll grab a couple.
Moar Mew... MOAR MEW! 8D
If you get many Mew, will you do an all-Mew Triple Battle and post the results? 8D
The Pounds would win SOOOOOOOOOOOO many battles! 8D
I support the All Pound Mew Battle. owob
So I'm making a Pokemon Team since I have some guys I can battle at school but I'm struggling with what my last Pokemon should be. I have my Galvantula, Escavalier, Mega Lopunny, Assault Vest Goodra, and my Lighting Bruiser Choice Scarf Florges of Doom and Sadness.
Glalie.
I don't know why. Just Glalie.
Glalie unfortunately sucks unless you Mega Evolve it and I like Mega Lopunny when I'm not using Mienshao. I also need to teach my Escavalier Drill Run.
Mutant super Hypno. Or just a Hypno running the most gimmicky set ever.
Honestly my Florges is the most Gimmicky thing I've ever made.
NOBOBY EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION TO BE LED BY A FLORGES!
Besides you know I don't care for Hypnos.
But... big friendly yellow marshmallow... O^O
And my Goodra is a big slimy Marshmallow, named Marmalade.
EDIT: Eh I think I'll go for Life Orb Sheer Force Feraligatr, he would have the coverage I need.
EDIT 2: Actually should I go for Mega Lopunny and Feraligatr or Shiny Mega Blastoise and Mienshao?
Try both combis once.
First I need to raise that Totodile tomorrow, I already gave him his Vitamins it seems.
Are those MEw Cards free? Or do I have to pay for them? Also, I'll trade in any Pokemon for a Fennekin.
They are free and I'll have to do that tomorrow since it's 11 PM and I'm studying for a Midterm.
My big yellow marshmallow is named Kidnapper~
And yes, the Mew cards are free. Hence why they are a promotion. Promotional items tend to be free.

EDIT: I have one. I've moved it to X. I don't know if I have good IVs on it because I didn't really breed my starter out but if you want it I'll give it to you.
I have a few Fennekin lying around and a Safari with Braixen. But, unless I can head to the library and connect there, I won't be able to help you.
Heck, I'm gonna have to connect at McDonalds just to get my Mew. Lack of nets is a problem.
I went to the other Gamestop but they were out.
I got one. Had to explain to the guy that I needed one for a friend in Singapore, otherwise you're only allowed one.
I went to the Gamestop I went to Yesterday and they were out too. Yeah I knew they were going to run out quick so I was lucky.
Okay, Waifu? I have nets currently. I can dig up a Fennekin for you.
NO I ALREADY DID THE BANK I HAD TO RENEW MY SUB TO IT AND EVERYTHING I SPENT MONEY TO GET THIS FENNEKIN TO HIM IT'S MY JOB NOW GO AWAY sorry ilu

We have a new Pokemon named Magiana.
Interesting development...
I HAVE INTERNET
TIME TO UPDATE MY BANK SUBSCRIPTION
WOO NETS
*floods with Porygons*
Got 23 days left until I have to renew. In the meantime, I'm Wonder Trading. Got a second shiny Pidgeot.
Hmm... I guess I need to check my Bank sub when I get back home later.
Let me know if you need an eShop card and I'll try and get into town to get one as soon as I can.
I believe I still have balance for 1/2 years... I'll check that too.
How much do I have to pay a month for Pokemon Bank? I really would some of my Gen V Pokemon to appear in my X and Omega Sapphire.
It's 5 dollars a year for Pokemon Bank and it's mostly for higher level players like breeders to keep MASSIVE amounts of Pokemon on a server outside their game. Pokemon Transporter itself (the standalone app that allows transfers between Gen V and Gen VI) is free IIRC.
Also handy if you're a massive Wonder Trader. It's where I keep the Zigzagoon.
I should rename it as Ralts Bank.
Since that's all it holds at the moment.
Same for me and Eevees.
Drowzee and Abra for me, at least until I Wonder Traded them all.
So Japan has an event to get a Pikachu with Fly, Surf, and Celebrate to celebrate the reopening of the online Japanese Pokemon Center. I want a Surfing and Flying Pikachu too! O^O

Jessie?
I'm okay with that.
We have clean art of Magearna now, and I finally not only figured out how to pronounce Magearna but also the pun behind it.
(http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd124/sakuraleic/Magearna-Pokemon-2_zpsctk0bdza.jpg)
The lovechild of Diancie and Klinklang.
And I keep accidentally adding an extra N, so it's always reading to me like Mangina and that's just not right.
Well there's no point to that anymore since it's Magearna now.
Also I say Claydol and Dianice love child who would most likely be part Steel at least.
She gives me toy and doll vibes.

Calm down Dr. Cox.
I just have to know... has Waifu ever really played Pokemon? I mean, I went from Gen 2 to Gen 6 and I adapted fine. And even then, I kept apprised of the games just enough to know of the lack of backwards compatibility when it came to transferring Pokemon back to older versions. Hell, I don't recall being able to do that with Gold and Silver!
Well actually you could trade between GSC and RBY but it was ridiculously complicated. Basically you obviously could only trade Gen 1 Pokemon, but they could only have moves they could learn in Gen 1. This was a separate function in the cable club known as the Time Capsule, which can be accessed once you get to Ecrutek if I remember correctly.
So say that you had a Venomoth with Gust, well you can't trade him because Venomoth can't learn Gust in Gen 1, which I remembered thanks to having a snarky GS player's guide. You had to delete Gust to trade that Venomoth back into RBY whether by learning a non HM move that was in it's Gen 1 moveset or the move deleter in Blackthorn.
This was the only time you can actually trade Pokemon between different generations, but it was so complicated that people would get easily frustrated and not bother. On the other end trading certain Gen 1 Pokemon into Gen 2 had a chance of them having certain rare Hold Items depending on the Pokemon.
Oh, right. But overall, you couldn't trade back if you didn't meet those criteria.
Yeah like I said needlessly complicated and frustrating.
Honestly related to that I still don't get why all games to this day still bar transfering Pokemon with HM moves until they were deleted. It's so archaic, especially since there are safeguards in place to make sure you can't transfer Pokemon if you only have 1 so it's not like you can be locked out of the game forcing you to reset.
I played in the past but I had never traded outside of emulation.
We get it man. X was my first properly "social" Pokemon experience too, but I didn't feel the need to ask questions to people on a forum every time something stumped me when Google was less than two clicks away.
I mean, I like you man. I just don't want you to get in any real trouble for being annoying. You gotta stop that. Look [parasitic bomb] up for yourself. Educate yourself. Don't piggyback off others.

Nah, you're fine.
In terms of Pokemon stuff... my nephew's birthday is coming up and he likes Victini. I'm thinking either getting him a shirt, a plushie, or a vinyl statue I saw. Your thoughts? He's turning eleven.
I'd say plush or statue, how much does the statue cost compared to a plush?
I say plushie. Then he can reenact moves!
Plushie is around $15-20 depending on seller. Statue is $10. Shirt is that cute one from The Dex.
He wants me to crochet him a Victini, so I'm considering holding off on the plushie and getting him a shirt.
Take pics of Crochetini! :3
Gotta get some more yarn so I can start. I've pretty much figured out how I wanna make it. Though, for the ears, feet, hands, and wings, I'm considering making those from felt.
Yeah felt for the ears should work as long as they have good support, same for the butt wings.
For my Hypno hoodie, I put plastic strips in the ears. Washable and they stand out. I could also use wire. Also, the wings can be stuffed a bit to stand up.
RENEW YOUR BANK SUBSCRIPTION!
A friend of mine lost his Pokemon in the PokeBank Massacre of 2016 because he remembered to renew too late.
... Must check tonight! D:
AND RENEWED D:
It was coincidentally the 14 days warning.
Mine isn't up until July.
Pokken finishers.
[spoiler]Shadow Mewtwo is clearly ripping off Frieza's Death Ball. XD[/spoiler]
Mine was in the 14 days warning when I renewed.
Pokemon direct kn Friday, it should be only 5 minutes long.
3rd Kalos game! 3rd Kalos game!
Or it could be surprise Gen 7, I mean who the hell expected Black and White and Black 2 and White 2 so close to the end of the DS's life span. It's most likely Z due to those Zygarde formes though. Though even then with Regigigas appearing a generation after the Regis it wouldn't be too out of left field to be gen 7, but again it's probably unlikely.
There's also been a rumor of a trademark for a code name Pokemon Rainbow, code name mind you most likely not the final name, but I doubt it because said leaker said he got the info from a NoA employee in the marketing department who also gave him the marketing budget information for the 3ds and Wii U as well. I would think an employee wouldn't risk that considering what happened with that Smash Bros leaker way back, though dumber things have happened.
What would be a good flying type Pokemon to defend against Emolga? I have strong Flying types but they are weak against Electric moves.
Why, are you in a Sky Battle or something because you shouldn't use a Flying type otherwise.
Aerodactyl works
No he is actually weak to Electric.
But is typically faster and can use rock tomb for ohko

Quote from: Waifu on February 25, 2016, 07:10:33 AM

There is a list of eligible Pokemon for Sky Battles on Bulbapedia you can look at that includes the non Flying Types. If you can I recommend a Baltoy since they are immune to electric but Aerodactyl is also good since his speed is ridiculous.
Try a non-Flying type with Levitate.
I do have a Lunatone that I could use.
Yeah Lunatone should work for that situation, just throw rocks on them.
I don't recall who I used for that particular Sky Battle. Knowing how many Trainers I managed to skip during my playthrough, that battle might've been done when I was toting a high-level Pokemon and just won through overkill. And now that I think about it... it might've been a Legendary.
Is Gligar eligible? *checks*
Yep.
Ground/Flying even.
I don't know when that Emolga fight is but I know Gligars are found kind of late game. :\
Yea, I just checked.
The Emolga battle is at Route 11, before heading into Reflection Cave.
Gilgar is a horde in Route 19.
... Still, Sky Battles are optional. I avoided a lot of them throughout Kalos.
I probably avoided a few, honestly I just think of them as a novelty really.
The only ones I did... Were the ones I could see from afar.
The hard-to-find ones aren't worth it, especially when they are pixel-perfect in trying to get them to fight. XD
Yeah I'm not going to scourer the land for battles ony my Aerodactyl can fight. :\
I KILL ALL WITH MY TALONFLAME It's not Gale Wings... But still!!

[spoiler]Looks like I might be right about gen 7......looks like we may need a new thread as it is tradition to make one for every new generation.[/spoiler]
EDIT: And it seems it's been confirmed to be fake, or at the very least the logos certainly are, got to wait until tomorrow. Curse you Ninlendo of America!
I got a shiny Sylveon through Wonder Trade! He pretty bloo~
Lucky! :O

It's too bad it seems fake though, again curse you Ninlendo.
Also it seems Missigno is still going to be in the VC gen 1 games.

Dang it. I wanted one. >8|
Get on Wonder Trade and get lucky! 8D
If you get any extra shines I would be very interested. Also was that Sylveon at lv 100 or something?
Lv100 male with Pokerus.
Probably one of those clones with Perfect IVs and Hidden Ability too huh?
Perfect IVs and Hidden Ability. Though, the original trainer is Azura.
Yeah I talked to a guy in school and he said those types of Pokemon are most likely clones.
Azula trains Pokemon!?
... HOLYSHI-
Also mind blown that the moon is clouds.
I think you mean the blue haired chick in Fire Emblem Fates.

But the Syvleon... IT IS PERFECTION
LIKE AZULA
But Slyveon can't breath fire.
THEN IT MUST BE ABLE TO SHOOT LIGHTNING!
... Apparently it can't.
... ITS FEELERS ARE OUT OF PLACE
inb4 quickie draws sylveon with amputated feelers
Dude why?! :o
quickie did this to me
...Nah, I have an art trade to work on, first.
- Pokemon Sun and Moon confirmed!
I hope I can have a wolf named Moon Moon! 8D
-Gen 1 Pokemon you catch in the VC games can be transfered to the bank and into the gen 6 games!
ARGH
Lappie crashed just as the Direct was starting...
Well it's over now, I'm happy Sun and Moon were confirmed.
Bless you Ninledo!
Argh... Heading to Nintendo to rewatch...
Well, that was a nice surprise.
... Adding Chinese huh... I'm sticking to English. XD
Guess we'll need a new thread for when we get more info on Sun and Moon, as it is tradition. But yay Gen 7 confirmed!
EDIT: Wait Missingno is still in the VC games, and now you can transfer Gen 1 Pokemon to the modern games. There was a conversion when Missingno was transfered to Gen 2 or prevention right........
EDIT 2: Also one of my friends has told me that thanks to being able to Transfer Gen 1 Pokemon Machamp has access to Fissure with the ability of No Guard. Arceus help us all! I mean granted he probably won't be Tournament legal due to most likely not getting that Pentagon, but still Arceus help us all!

Because I couldn't resist... (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LS9KzVetUwE)
New Pokemon! All aboard the squee train!!
Me and my friends are discussing what kind of Mega Evolutions we want. One guy said he wants a Mega Snorlax. I replied that since Snorlax took 6 generations to stand up he must be preparing for a Mega Evolution. Seriously everyone go look at all the Snorlax sprites from Gen 1 to Gen 6.
I wonder if Mega Snorlax would just be an even fatter Snorlax. Like, he would just become a perfect sphere with pointy ears poking out.
I'm thinking Jojo Snorlax, or maybe something with spikes. Whatever happens it'll probably hit like a truck.
Also I got something wrong, it seems you can only transfer the Gen 1 Pokemon to Gen 7, not Gen 6. Sorry for the false info there.
In the mean time I'm breeding some Eevees.
Wooooooooooooooo!!!! 8)
I doubt this would happen but I wouldn't be surprised if we get a little bit more info for them tomorrow since it is Pokemon day. Perhaps even the Starters.
Also if they do continue the trend of all the Fire Starters coincidentally being part of the Chinese Zodiac I wonder which one will it be. Bunny? Horse? Goat? Ox? Tiger? Snake?
I'm not remotely hyped since I have absolutely no idea what this Pokemon game will be about. Is it a sequel to X/Y or a new gen or fuckin' what?
The trailer did nothing for me.
It's a New Gen, Pokemon UK confirmed, as well as Pokemon.com, it will be a new region with new Pokemon. Also for a split second you can see a new bird Pokemon in Wire Frame.
Oh that's nice.
I'm honestly a little miffed. It was the most pointless trailer I've ever seen tbh. It's like they had to, HAD TO shill the 20th anniversary as soon as possible before anything was done and yet it's Zelda's 30th and not a [parasitic bomb] was to be given.
Yeah it could have been better, I would have liked to see the new starters at least but hey them's the breaks. At least we know we can transfer the VC Gen 1 Pokemon to Sun and Moon, and they probably will have some special properties and possibly some exclusive hold items like transfering to GSC back in the day. I mean honestly that's pretty ground breaking from a technical stand point, we could probably get VC Gen 2 for the next console with similar capabilities.
But yeah we need more Zelda news.
I gotta agree. One thing that bugged me about the Pokemon Direct was how little was actually said about Sun and Moon. Aside from announcing the titles and a few, very quick looks at development, nothing else was revealed. I wasn't expecting much, but a basic premise would have sufficed. If you pay really close attention to the video, you find out two things: it's a new region and it's tropical. That's kinda it. Maybe it's going to be based on Okinawa?
One of my friends suggested Hawaii. It could be something in the Caribbean for all we know. Or something in South America.
That's true. GameFreak has seemed to be interested in foreign inspiration the past two generations. The trend could continue.
I'm just curious about the emphasis on vehicles in the concept art, we even have a Fire Truck with a Blastoise on it, but yellow.
Probably just concept art for object assets.
Also, I just went on eShop to see how much RBY are... $10. Aren't the other Game Boy titles $5? I could be wrong.
The highest is $6 it seems.
Besides with how [tornado fang]ing huge Pokemon is compared to other GB games, plus the local trading and battling plus the Gen 7 compatibility it's definitely worth the $10. I mean think of the how much hell that must of been to even make that.
MEGA HYPNOOOOOOOOO :W
We just might, judging from that Fire Truck and that Horsea statue there seems to be some Kanto Pokemon.
Maybe they finally get Mega Flygon down.
I've wasted my time messing around with emulators and Gen 7 is happening? I gotta see the direct to see what I've missed. One part of me is like "awwwww yeaaaaaaaah!!", and another part of me is like "dammit, Nintendo, let me catch up with Gen 5 and 6."
Yeah the direct is only about six minutes long an just shows some concept art but not much else except you can transfer the Gen 1 Pokemon from the VC games into Gen 7 and the games will have 2 Chinese options bringing the language total to 9.
But yeah Sun and Moon confirmed, I want a Moon Exclusive Legendary Wolf so I can name it Moon Moon. 8D
I can believe I have to wait like ten more months now. I know I said earlier that I wanted them to announce a new game, but now I have nothing but hype. And none of my real life friends like Pokemon, so I have no one to fangirl with! AHHHHH!!
This wasn't as much of a trailer as it was a teaser. Just letting people know about RBY on the Virtual Console and that hey, a new game is coming so YAY! Personally I wanted more info on Pokemon GO, but they'll probably have a new Direct later on to delve more into both games. They could also be waiting for E3 to hype both Sun & Moon and the NX and stuff.

Honestly Pokemon games usually come out in the last quarter of the year anyway, with a few oddball exceptions. Just go play through RBY in the meantime so you can have something to Transfer into Gen 7.
I mean there has to be something you can do to occupy your gaming time Pokemon related or not. I mean Bravely Second is coming out in April and there's going to be a 10 hour demo you can play in the eShop soon, I imagine next month but they haven't confirmed the demo date. If you haven't played Bravely Default I highly recommend it, despite having a bit of a drag close to the end.
Not to mention Undertale if you haven't played that, it's also only 10 bucks.

But we're getting three Zelda's this year!
I mean, yeah, one of them is a 3DS port of a Wii U game with some extras, the other is an HD upscale of a 10-year old Gamecube and Wii game that's still playable on the same hardware, and the last one is still possibly gonna get delayed. But y'know. 8D
Anyway, with Gen 7, basically I want my character customization back. If you're gonna do the UK knockoff I want to look like a qt british girl.
Like, lets be clear here, other than like, Gen 3 May, Leaf and Touko, standard outfits generally look awful and ORAS had some of the worst standard outfits yet.
I'd also love if the game doesn't do XY's Railroading plot again. I just wanna collect the damn badges and catch mons.
Also it'd be criminal if I didn't get Pokemon Moon.

This Direct seems to have been made by Game Freak, or at least it focuses on Game Freak efforts. Since Pokemon GO isn't being made my Game Freak, they don't know anything about it. You may have to wait for an official trailer for it. Hopefully your phone can run the game because I already know mine can't. ;O;

It's most likely not Pokemon UK since it seems to be a tropical area. Could be another part of Japan, with the massive popularity of Yokai Watch in Japan, Greece, Singapore Eurasia, South America, Hawaii or the Caribbean.
But yeah I don't really care about clothes so long as it's not an outfit like Lyra's, don't care what anyone says the only thing I like about Lyra's outfit is her hat. Next time I play Soul Silver I'm going to cross play and play as Ethan. However I would love Trainer Customization again with more hair and clothes options, but I won't say ruined forever if it's not there.
As for railroading I say it was worse in Black and White than X and Y, but it's Pokemon tradition to have bullshit road blocks.

You don't have a Smart Phone?
I do, but it's an iPhone 4S, which can't play any games anymore. Games just crash on it because it's old. So unless the game is from like three years ago or later, it won't work. Fair to say, I don't think this game will run on it. I'm far too poor to buy a new phone.
Ah yeah, one thing that sucks about Apple is that they offer IOS hardware updates for hardware that can't really handle it if I read a somewhat recent lawsuit against Apple correctly regarding the 4S.
But yeah I don't think it would work on your phone in that situation.

Come to think of it the 4S doesn't even have a 4G/LTE connection doesn't it.
I hope mine can run it. ;3;
I need to change my phone. 8D
Also, to be honest, I think trainer customizations is a purely Kalos thing now.
Not that I don't like it, I had a lot of fun playing around with the clothes and accessories, but I think they only meant it for Kalos.

What the hell kind of creature is that and what country did it originate from?
I think basically everyone wants trainer customization to come back. I don't expect it, though, unfortunately. They did say that it was a Kalos-only feature because the region was based on France. Honestly, it just felt like it was a feature that should have been in the game since the beginning. It felt so right to be able to make my trainer look and wear what I want.
I've ranted enough about this in this thread...

I'm mostly just upset that with all the nice QoL and other additions they added to XY they decided to axe my two favorite things in Roller blading and Customization for really no reason at all (The excuse that "Oh customization was only for Kalos because lol france" is some supreme bullshit and everybody knows it.)
At least with Black/White's plot I mostly went on my own with the only interruptions being the rivals coming to fight which I didn't mind. XY decided that instead of just having two really chummy rivals they also needed Bud and Zack from Star Force to come in and just... either be Exposition, mention some thing in the area you just got into, or just to say something and walk off. If anything I'd really like them to dial it back to one/two rivals that you have constant contact with.
I think it was more like those weren't in Hoenn not that it was Kalos only.
Besides I think Roller Skates would kind of be very inconvenient in Hoenn with how many Water Routes and Water blockades there are, the landmass is kind of small you know? I was completely fine with the Mach Bike anyway, especially with being able to register 4 items at once.
As for not changing clothes would you want to get your fancy dress wet while diving? I sure as hell wouldn't, it might even fall apart with the underwater presurre or something.

Well Mach Bike sure is nice, I would just at least have had analog movement instead of "HOLD B TO RUN" again.
And as we all know both May and Brendan wore perfectly normal clothing in RSE and they went underwater all the time. They just made them look... stupid in ORAS.

Please don't start with that.
I'm sure my phone (HTC One M8) can run GO but the connection might gimp it. I only have 3G connection.
I think that Brendan and May look equally silly in both ORAS and RSE. May honestly just wears her bandana backwards. Otherwise, her character design is exactly the same. Brendan's clothes just aren't baggy, otherwise they're nearly the same too.
They clearly seem to have designed them to look older in ORAS, though.
Actually May's kind of wearing her's like that woman in the poster used to motivate Women to get jobs in WWII. It's just a different way of wearing it not backwards.
Besides nothing beats Brendan wearing 2 pairs of pants in Emerald, seriously what guy wears 2 pairs of pants?!
I think wearing pants under shorts and skirts was a thing that some people did in the early- to mid-aughts.
Pants and skirts are one thing, that makes sense. Brendan is wearing pants cargo short like pants but without the pockets, that doesn't make sense.
As for Pokemon GO, I just realized that I have a Kindle. I just got it as a Christmas gift a few months ago. It might be able to play it, if it ever gets on the Amazon App Store--which it probably won't.
Is it a Kindle Fire?
Yes. It's a Kindle Fire HD.

HMMMMM...
(http://i.imgur.com/3yNo5NR.png) (Maybe cheating since its the anime design but its the same either way really)
vs.
(http://i.imgur.com/AjoWwEr.png)
Full Bandana Vs. Basically a cloth/hairband
Sleeved shirt with collar vs. High schooler tanktop/brastrap wombo combo with strange ruffly bits
Bizzare white thing that's most likely more shirt + Bike Shorts vs. Impossibly Short Shorts + Bike Shorts
and finally...
Gloves vs. bare hands.
Of course that's just clothing. Honestly i'm probably biased as I really really like RSE May's design but its certainly somewhat noticeable that redesigns always seem to look... off to those who are more accustomed to the originals.
I dunno, i'm mostly just nitpicking.
ORAS May is cuter imo.
Maybe it's because I'm also really biased, but I hated RSE and loved ORAS. RSE is the reason I skipped owning a GBA. The Pokemon of that generation felt weird. The sound chip they used for the GBA was awful (trumpets of doom). And the overworld sprites they used in RSE looked nothing like the previous two generations from the GB/C. There's a reason they changed them for FRLG. They were ugly. Then there was the half-assed day-night system that wasn't acknowledged graphically at all. If they couldn't get it to work right, why include one at all?
That's the reason I wasn't really enthused about ORAS. But I eventually gave in and I'm glad I did. The sheet music for those games was clearly great because the music in ORAS is awesome. Like I said, it was just the sound chip that made the music sound bad.
Given all that, I prefer the newer designs. But, like I said, it could be my own bias.
But Zigzagoon is so freaking adorable and Absol is one of the most badass Pokemon ever! Also I honestly think Route 13 in ORAS needed more Trumpets. Way more trumpets, I have no idea why they made it so techno.
As for the sprites I think I actually prefered the RSE ones over FRLG. Have you seen the sprites they used for May and Brendan when using the Cable Club? They look so ugly and May's colors are way off. And besides I much prefer having a Day and Night System over having No Day and Night system. You know why? Because I have to trade over my Eevee into RSE after doing nearly all the post game stuff just so I can get an Espeon or Umbreon!
I'll be honest Kanto is my personal least favorite region and I didn't like the second half of Crystal because I could own everything due to the levels being so low but I still have to deal with Red who has the highest level Pokemon in the game. Really FRLG while cool is probably my least favorite remakes. You can't have Johto Evolutions until you get the National Dex which requires you to catch like 60 Pokemon and save the little girl on Two Island if you didn't when you had the first opportunity. Locking Evolutions like that should not have happened, it makes getting a Zubat completely pointless.
And say what you will about the Victory Roads in Hoenn and Sinnoh requiring too many HM's, which I agree is really stupid, but at least it goes by faster than pushing those damn rocks on to buttons! Seriously that is the worse pace breaker I've ever seen when it comes to any block pushing puzzle in any game. Not to mention it's just way too slow, why can I only push the rocks one step at a time instead of continously. What is my Machamp so lazy and mad he has to push these too? Why can't he just lift the damn rock and put it on the button instead of pushing it an inch at a time?
Not to mention while I agree the GBA sound chip sucked I much prefer the RSE sountrack over the FRLG soundtrack, the majority of the FRLG sound track sounded too MIDI for my tastes. However Blue's Champion theme in FRLG is the best version to me and tropical Violet City theme is pretty nice.
Over all HGSS is my favorite remake and FRLG is my least favorite. ORAS did some very neat things, making May/Brendan much more relevant, the Delta Episode, the Latis becoming an Airship, Secret Bases being more awesome but somethings didn't sit right with me since I also broke the game in half, which I acknowledge is mostly my fault, next time I play the game I'm not using the Exp. Share and Gardevoir. Gardevoir is just such a Game Breaker in Hoenn it's not even funny. I also wish I didn't have to backtrack to get my Aron because they locked them behind a Mach Bike slope but it was only really minor inconvenience, and they also got rid of those Mach Bike puzzles. [tornado fang] those puzzles, why do I need such tight precision with the most unwieldy bike ever in my Pokemans. So really I think ORAS is alright but not outstanding like HGSS, and it's certainly not as bad as FRLG was.

the GBA sound chip sucked
The entire MMZ soundtrack says hi. >:T
Let me rephrase that, the GBA sound chip sucked, but there were people who knew how to use it to make it sound good while everyone else didn't.
It's Capcom. Capcom always made the best with what they had. All of the Mega Man games from the GBA had awesome music. Objectively, though, the GBA sound chip was awful. And this isn't my own opinion. Many Pokemon fans believe that RSE and FRLG had the worst music in the series. Game Freak didn't do that great of a job with it. Like I said in my previous post: the sheet music is obviously good because the music in ORAS is great. It was just that whoever translated the sheets into the chiptunes did an bad job.
When comparing FRLG to RBY, many prefer RBY despite the limitations of the GB's own sound chip.
Actually I heard a split with RSE, just as many people like myself love the trumpets while there are others who felt the trumpets were overplayed.
Seriously I love these 2 route themes.

[yt]https://m.youtube.com/watch?list=PL46A49E65817F8577&v=gM0oVe4qpHQ#[/yt]
Like I said while ORAS is okay some places could have used more trumpets.
Eh... Preferences and opinions. We all have them.
Agreed, meanwhile I got Blue and finally found a Spearow. I named them X-Wing because I couldn't think of a better name. I'm training them now because while they hit like a truck they has tissue paper defenses, but they seems better than the Male Nidoran.
I'm refering to all my Pokemon as 'they' since I don't know what Gender they will be until Gen 7, except probably my Bulbasaur who will most likely be male and my future Vulpix who will most likely be female, and I don't want to refer to them as it.
Male Nidoran is Bulldozer because I couldn't think of any better and Bulbasaur is Scarboro because Scarborough would not fit.
I'm actually interested to know how they assign genders, natures, and other stats not in RBY for Sun and Moon. Are the eShop RBY actually generating those stats and not showing them? Or are they generated when they are uploaded to Pokemon Bank?
I have many questions that no one can answer. :)
It probably be similar to what they did for GSC since when you trade into them from RBY they do have genders and even hold items.
Oh also Jynx is purple in Yellow and some attack animations in all the games have been changed to prevent seizures.
I'm actually thinking about getting Yellow. That was actually my favorite version of Gen 1. I liked being able to get all the starters.
Speaking of the eShop versions: how do trade evolutions work? You can't trade, right? You can only upload to Pokemon Bank.
No actually you can trade but you can only do it locally. They actually made it so you can trade and battle locally like the old days, except without the link cable.
Also I found another Spearow, I think I'll catch it to get the Farfetch'd because I wouldn't be surprised if it was holding a Stick when transfered to Gen 7.
Why would it be holding a stick? Farfetch'd has a leek. Did they change that?

I think Farfetch'd's unique held item has always been called a Stick. By that, I mean the Cubone line gets a boost from holding a Thick Club, Farfetch'd gets a boost from holding a Stick.
Nah the special item of Farfetch'd is always called a Stick despite the fact he's holding a leek. The Stick raises crit rate of any Farfetch'd. There's also the Think Club for Cubone/Marowak that raises their Attack and the Lucky Punch for Chansey that also raises their her Crit Rate.

You can! Cable Club brings up a Local Wireless matchmaking prompt on the bottom screen.
I finally beat Brock, it took way longer than it should because I was determined to get X-Wing the Spearow to beat the Jr. Trainer all by themselves and then Scarboro the Bulbasuar one shoted both of Brock's Pokemon.
The only Pokemon-related thing I did today was bounce costume ideas off of Ringman. Otherwise, we worked on a costume and talked about comics.
I'm debating whether I should keep Pikachu as a permanent party member or replace them with Jolteon later. The main thing is I don't think Jolteon will learn Pin Missle when I need it most.
EDIT: Also I found a Clefairy but ran out of Pokeballs. Guess I'll get one in the Game Corner.
EDIT: And then a Rocket with a Raticate knocked out my Ivysaur and Pikachu. Good thing I have an extra Escape Rope. Perhaps I should buy a few more Potions, I have about 4 left.
Ah, that good old TR Grunt with Raticate... Fun times...
In Yellow, I usually box Pikachu. Jolteon was my main electric Pokemon and Psychic killer.

May have been a good thing since I needed to deposit my items and Pikachu was running out of Thundershocks from frying all those Zubats. That Geodude I caught saved my butt and my Spearow got half the experience. I also managed to catch a Paras so I know who to teach cut to.

The thing is since I am playing Blue I can evolve Pikachu into Raichu and I can probably just use my future Sandslash and Fearow to kill the Psychics. Not to mention Pin Missle isn't exactly the most reliable move......
Plus Jolteon learns Pin Missle at level 54, by that time I can just take Sabrina with pure Strength thus making Pin Missle moot.
Evo yourself an Alakazam, and beat Psychic with Psychic!! :W
Also, it takes a while to tune back to the Physical/Special split back in Gen1... Wait.
THAT MEANS PERSIAN WITN HYPER BEAM WILL SEE THE LIGHT OF DAY AGAIN!! :W
Yeah Persian could rock a Hyper Beam but I think Snorlax would be able to handle that better due to his sheer bulk.
Also I think I'll just keep Pikachu, I can teach it things like Mega Kick and Seismic Toss. That's more than Jolteon can do. Or I teach it Body Slam, it's not as powerful as Mega Kick but it's 100% accurate, it's more powerful than Mega Punch and it should still Paralyze stuff.
EDIT: Also thanks to the wonders of Gen 1 TMs Raichu can learn Pay Day.
EDIT 2: And Body Slam can't Paralyze Normal Types in this game, because glitches.
EDIT 3: Ah and Hyper Beam ignores the recharging if your opponent faints, so Persian would probably be fine depending on if they can knock out their opponent.
You forgot that critical hits are depending on speed.
Higher speed stat, higher chance to get critical hits, and Persian is naturally pretty fast.
Yeah that's true, in that case Hyper Beam probably would work better on a Persian. In the mean time I caught 2 Sandshrews because the first was level 6 and the second was level 10 and the average level of the Pokemon there were like 8 or something.
I can use that extra Sandshrew as a bargaining Pokemon for an Ekans or something.
Also, in case it's needed...
Normal, Flying, Fighting, Rock, Ground, Bug, Poison and Ghost are Physical, and rely on the Attack stat.
Dragon, Fire, Grass, Electric, Psychic, Water and Ice are Special and rely on the Special stat.
Yeah I pretty much almost memorized those since I've been trying to memorize Gen 3 mechanics.
Can you bring up that picture with the list of all the Gen 1 glitches, I think you were the one who posted that.
... The pic isn't stored on my phone, haha.
Think to scour the forum!
Yeah I know it's in the picture thread I just can't find the right word to search for in the search function to lead me to it.
FOUND IT
(http://static.fjcdn.com/large/pictures/ca/d9/cad9bb_3856475.jpg)
Yeah that thing about Super Effective Moves only affecting the second type must be why my Ivysaur resists Poison moves.
EDIT: Nope Electric is still Super Effective on Slowpokes despite Water being the Primary type. I think Poison just may be bugged in general.
EDIT 2: Yeah it is, it's supposed to be Super Effective against Grass so it should be a Neutral hit on Ivysaur, but it's Not Effective.....
EDIT 3: Also Slash Claw the Sandshew learned Slash. I'm going to have fun with that.
EDIT 4: Misty why would you use X-Defend when Starmie's weaknesses are Special Attacks?
Oh, how I missed 90% accurate/30% freezing Blizzards, and Hyper Beam finishers. Also, insta-kill being based off of Speed led me to ye olde Thunder Wave/Horn Drill combo. Fun times.
I thought the bugged-attack-effectiveness-identifier thing was only in the event of the two types allegedly cancelling each other out? Maybe that was just the most obvious, it's been a while. Poison is obviously a frequent offender since their hybrids were common in Gen1, but I believe Dragonite had the same issue when faced with Electric attacks.
Leech Seed/Toxic exploit I didn't know about back in the day, but I honestly don't see that as imbalanced for its time. I mean, besides the fact that Grass is defensive suicide in Gen1 anyway, your best attacks to choose from are Razor Leaf and Mega Drain.
You know what stinks? I actually restarted my physical Yellow cart not too long ago because I wanted to start from scratch (and exploit the hell out of that Mew glitch) before transferring a new team to Stadium... Not something the VC games are going to let me do, obviously.
Quote from: Psycho Yuffie on February 28, 2016, 12:19:33 AM
I'm actually interested to know how they assign genders, natures, and other stats not in RBY for Sun and Moon. Are the eShop RBY actually generating those stats and not showing them? Or are they generated when they are uploaded to Pokemon Bank?
I have many questions that no one can answer. :)
Part of me wonders if Sun/Moon is going to revamp Pokemon stats again, given that they will not allow the VC titles to transfer to the 3DS games already out there. Of course, it could just be laziness. But some thoughts are:
-Natures. Either remove them or allow the player to select them during a VC transfer. There is no way raising a perfect Gen1 'man only to have it ruined by a random crap Nature will not suck.
-The total EV cap of 510. Gen1's "stat experience" system has no total cap to it and is impossible to train in only a single stat at a time. If that cap is not removed or the system is not redone entirely, it would often be impossible to "convert" a VC 'man into a legal current-gen 'man, you'd have to just kick their EVs to 0 and start over.
-This may be wishful thinking, but I would LOVE it if VC transfers got their Dream World abilities.
Speaking of Hyper Beam, Fearow has 100 base and 90 base Attack. So I guess I'm teaming my Fearow Hyper Beam.
Also if all the Gen 1 Pokemon have their Hidden Abilities that's going to suck for the Machamp getting Fissure in this game and the No Guard Ability in Gen 7, but that might be for the best.
Well, they could always just add an exception to what moves No Guard will effect. Wouldn't be the first time they've tweaked mechanics that way. But yeah, EVERYONE is afraid of a No Guard Fissure Machamp.
One thing I love about Gen1 having no total-stat-experience cap: Zapdos's Drill Peck is actually worth a damn.
Also there's an interesting exploit I read about while looking up glitches on Bulbapedia.

*looking up Gen 1 glitches on Bulbapedia*
Huh, so if I had something that needs to Evolve with a Thunder Stone and a Growlithe, sent out the Pokemon who needs to Evolve with the Thunder Stone then send out the Growlithe and have the Growlithe faint the Pokemon the other Pokemon will evolve without needing a Thunder Stone.
I might just try that, there's also other Pokemon that do that like Exeggcutor and anything that needs a Moon Stone to Evolve so that gets around only having 4 Moon Stones in the entire game. Unfortunately the Pokemon with the Fire Stone flag is Missingno......
Was it mentioned Poison is super-effective on Bug?
If not...
Poison is super-effective on Bug. 8D
Oh yeah that's how I got through Viridian Forest, I caught a Weedle and just destroyed everything that wasn't another Weedle or Kakuna. I also murdered like 5 or 7 Pikachu while grinding.
Such massacre!!
Good job!! owob
Also Slashclaw is almost to Level 22, then I will head for the SS. Anne and Slash everything with their massive pointy claws.
SLASH THE RATICATE TO DEATH
... Ohwait
His Raticate was the lowest level mon on his team. Honestly never liked the theory that Red killed Blue's Raticate because it doesn't make sense since Red is a kind trainer that would probably make sure both Pokemon didn't over exert themselves.
Just cleaning up on the S. S. Anne before I rub an oldman's back.
Celebi is now available to DL.
Guess I can get them when I get home.
Anyway I'm in Lavender Town. Normally I love the Lavender Town theme but that god damn buzzing due to the Gameboy limitations is so grating.
2 Celebi down. 2 more to go~
I finally evolved my Vulix Kit-Kat, I had to use 4 Rare Candies though to get her to level 35. Only having Ember was murder despite the fact she took on Erika all by herself with just Ember. Normally I consider Erika a complete pushover, but having Gen 1 mechanics and the fact that her Vileplume has Petal Dance makes it surprisingly challenging.
I was in the Pokemon Tower but got out once I found the last Rare Candy I left to evolve Kit-Kat. I'm taking on all the Team Rocket missions before continuing any gyms to get my Lapras ASAP since it's at Lv 15. I left some unfought trainers at Rock Tunnel and the Route before the Underground Passage to Celedon for that purpose.
Got my Celebi. Three Celebi have now occupied space on my game.
Now to Wonder Trade...
So uh I was looking up stuff about Silph Co and Blue's Exeggcute only has Leech Seed as a means of Damage. Leech Seed. -AC
It's still annoying!
I'm grabbing four Celebis for each of my games. Just so you guys know.

There's a new Pokemon Bank distribution gift.
From 4 March 2016 to 31 October 2016, players that have paid the annual fee for Pokemon Bank can receive Regirock, Regice AND Registeel with their Hidden Abilities of Sturdy, Ice Body and Light Metal. The three Regis can be transfered to X/Y/OR/AS through the Pokemon Link feature. Just make sure you have received any prior BP/PokeMiles before you can receive the three Regis.
All three Regis are at lvl50, with the following movesets.
Regirock - Explosion, ICE PUNCH, Stone Edge and Hammer Arm
Regice - THUNDERBOLT, Amnesia, Ice Beam and HAIL
Registeel - Iron Head, ROCK SLIDE, GRAVITY, Iron Defense
BOLDED moves are either Move Tutor moves, or TM moves.

God Rock Slide sounds [tornado fang]ing terrifying in the Gen 1 games, holy [parasitic bomb]. Also I'm pretty impressed by the Hypno Sprite in the game, it's pretty darn accurate compared to other Sprites.
I seem to remember Slash being broken as [tornado fang] on certain Pokes back then, too. IIRC, PERSIAN of all things was godlike if it had Slash and some sort of basic elemetal move (Thunderbolt? It's been a while and my memory's a little fuzzy.)
Probably Thunderbolt, but yeah even with my Sandslash, who is pretty slow compared to half my team, it's broken as heck. I've been trying to get Hyper Beam for my Fearow but my god those stupid slots suck in this game.
Also got my Lapras, I decided to teach them Body Slam on Level up since Sing is kind of useless and their Attack and Special are practically even. They're taking on the Fighting Dojo since I taught them Psychic.
I think the first time I played R/B I soloed pretty much everything with m'Blastoise. Surf, Skull Bash, Bite and....I can't remember the fourth move. Don't think I ever needed it, TBH.
My Lapras is catching up pretty decently, they're already at Level 27 compared to the rest of my Team in the 35's.

Yea, it was due to the critical hit mechanics back then that took the Pokemon's base speed in the calculation. Basically the higher the base speed of a Pokemon, the higher the chances of critical hits to land.
Not to mention a move with a high crit chance is much more likely to crit than in other generations.
Yep.
Just make sure you don't use Focus Energy beforehand. 8D
I don't think any of my Pokemon could learn that move anyway.
Where is my Regirock, Regiice and Registeel? How do I receive a gift from the Pokemon Bank?

I cannot say that I soloed with any starter however I did Blastoise more than once in a battle. Leveling up is kind of difficult in previous generations except that you could level up with either the Elite Four or with some sort of rare candy cheat. -_-
You just use the Bank and you should be able to get them. If you have any leftover Battle Points or Miles from the Pokemon Link you need to get those first and then you can get the Regis. The Regis are also gotten through the Link, which will be on the file select like the Mystery Gift and other things.
Well, I got my wifi Celebi with a Jolly nature, hooray. Too bad they couldn't do the same thing for that freaking Mew giveaway, I went to three Gamestops and ALL of them were out of those lousy cards. Oh well, there's always the Gen1 glitch.
Yeah I was lucky to get one for me and my bro, and it's going to get worse with Arceus.
One step at a time... First comes Darkrai... B(
I'll check my Gamestop this week if I can. I plan to get at least two, but I'm gonna ask for three.
What, Mews? I would think they be gone by now.
I thought we were talking about Arceus.
No Arceus is like months from now.
Plus Darkrai comes before Arceus, in May!

I'll camp out for Genesect.
So sometimes people make fan made cover plates for the New 3DS using a 3D printer on esty and Shapeway. So this morning I found that someone made a Venusaur and Pikachu plate similar to the 20th anniversary plates for Blastoise and Charizard and I was estatic.......until I realized they were just decal stickers.
*sigh* I should have guessed with how cheap they were, they were like $12 when such plates are around the $25-30 range, and the fact they were selling the Blastoise and Charizard stickers too, so of course they wouldn't be plates or else they be sued for selling the Charizard and Blastoise plates they made. On the plus side they also made the same stickers for the New 3DS XL too, so there's that. But seriously I would so get a fan made Venusaur plate similar to the Red and Blue Plates if someone makes one someday.
Well... Ringman is getting a 3D printer...
I still haven't gotten my regis, woo.
I think I'm holding off on Sun/Moon 'til I get confirmation that they're good, now that I've thought about it. I got burned on ORAS and I'm not letting that happen again.

There's still the choice of turning off the Exp. Share...
I really don't think that turning the EXP Share off makes the games harder. It just means it takes longer to get through the game. Waiting ≠ difficulty. Pokemon games have never been hard. They are made for small children, after all.
The one exception to this is the Red battle on Mount Silver in GSC.

No the real [sonic slicer] was Lenora's Watchog, screw that thing. I forgot because Lenora is not a gym leader in B2W2.

Steep grinding curve can be considered as a fake difficulty, but still a difficulty nonetheless. Turning off the Exp. Share reverts ORAS to RSE steep grinding.
I think the answer may be turning it off or on depending on the circumstances to make sure I don't over level. However I think the Gyms could use better strategies. I remember Korrina and Valerie being kind of tough, and Viola actually had a good strategy, but everyone else weren't particular good.
I was toting a Psychic Type, so Korrina was a pushover.
I had Honedge. Total curbstomp.
I think I had some trouble due to using Aerodactyl, or maybe just because Hawlucha or Lucario was kind of a [sonic slicer] to me.
I also putzed around between each Gym and was massively overleveled by the time I got to them. 8D
We all did~ 8D
It's my strategy for every game. 8D
We shall see if it still works next gen. XD
IT WILL ALWAYS WORK :W
I just want the gym leaders to have better strategies.
EDIT: So I decided to replace X-Wing the Fearow with Overdrive (Ostrich) the Doduo since I've always wanted to use a Doduo and Dodrios and Fearows being ridiculously similar while Dodrios get Tri Attack, so I can have something before I get Hyper Beam.
Leak??
It hasn't been confirmed so possibly fake and gay but anyways

If it's real, female protag is cute. Male is fuccboi. Hopefully customizable.
But i'm not taking it as legit yet
I think all of this is being discussed in the Gen VII topic.
And it also seems to be most likely fake according to Kotaku, for various reasons. Not to mention Serebii would have mentioned it so that's another flag that it's not real.
WHY IS THERE A SEPERATE GEN VII TOPIC
i give up every time i think i have news you guys get to it before me im just done ;_;

Maybe I should had kept that Doduo.
I don't know how those 2 quotes were related to each other but I was talking about Pokemon Blue just in case you didn't realize. Otherwise Dodrio is pretty good.
I hate the Gen 1 Safari Zone, just [tornado fang] that place. I was able to get Surf and the Gold Teeth on my first run but I only caught a Ryhorn.
I found a Female Nidoran, Paras, and Doduo, which I already caught before, and the Exeggcutes kept running away. There was Parasect too but that also ran away.
EDIT: Second trip I got that Exeggcute and the rest of the items, 3rd trips I got a Nidorina and Venonat. I also found an Pinsir and Kangaskhan during those trips but you can guess what happened.
EDIT 2: So it seems that I need 120,000 Poke Dollars in order to get Hyper Beam for my Dodrio if I just buy the coins. I have over 95,000 right now, and the slots suck, but I'm still not sure if it would be worth it.
I'm turn between Red and Yellow right now. I like Yellow a lot because Pikachu is one of my favorite Pokemon, but I also enjoy getting all the starters. But I played the [parasitic bomb] out of Red back in the day. Red got me through my back surgery when I was a kid. Huge nostalgia points for Red.
Get both.
I am low on cash is I cannot really buy anything however I do have other.....'means' of playing the game. It may not be the same as having on my 3DS but it is still good game. I wonder if there is a glitch where you could copy items such as rare candy. Does anyone know it?
Missingno, look it up on Bulbapedia for details.

You could use the Missingno glitch, pretty famous. Basically, get the old man in Viridian City to show you his tutorial, then fly to Cinnabar Island and surf the coast until you find MISSINGNO. or 'M. After that, just run, and the sixth item in your inventory will be multiplied to 128 I think. Though your hall of frame data will get corrupted permanently, so if that's a problem, don't do it.
I thought that only happened if you caught Missigno.
Quote from: Sakura Crockett on March 18, 2016, 02:50:35 AM
I thought that only happened if you caught Missigno.
No, just finding one is enough. I think catching actually causes more problems in some cases, since getting it into battle will corrupt all battle sprites until you open a Pokemon's stats menu. Maybe it doesn't last when saving and resetting, but I'm not sure about that.
Yep, just encountering Missingno. will duplicate the 6th Item Slot.
I think if you do it before beating the Elite Four, the Hall of Fame data won't be corrupted.
... I think.
Hmm if that's the case maybe I'll try to get those near infinite Master Balls.
Also I got Hyper Beam, turns out I just needed 5,500 coins instead of 7,500 coins, I got confused with the GSC amount but at least I still have plenty of cash.
I also got a Dratini in the Safari Zone, I at least got all the Water Pokemon I could catch. But seriously I hate those Safari Balls.
Missingno. works on TMs too. 8D
The only one I'd probably use that for would have been Body Slam, but it's too late.
Missingno-duplicated TMs was such a godsend, back before they had the sense to make them re-usable. There are all too many Gen1 'mans who darn near require TM use to be viable. Not to mention the Petit Cup for Yellow/Stadium players.

Jirachi event has started, just download them via the Internet.
FINALLY IT FELT LIKE IT HAS BEEN 1000 YEARS
Yet another reason the bonus GCN disc that I tracked down on eBay all that time ago is completely meaningless.
I was reminded that Mewtwo could learn Self-destruct in RBY. I'll have to bring that old moveset back.

Anyway Pokemon TCG Online is coming to Android Devices and is currently in Open Beta.
Does anyone know how to add friends in Pokemon XY? I was trying to do it with a friend last weekend and we couldn't figure it out. We're friends on each other's systems, but that doesn't seem to translate to Pokemon XY friends.
Are you both online at the same time? I think for it to register, you both have to be set to online mode at the same time and then it should update.

No, we were over at a friend's house at the time, so we didn't have wifi access. Thanks. I'll try it next time we're both online. :3
Yeah it'll show up if both of you are online.

No problem~ Lemme know if it helps. And if you're looking for people to play with, I also don't mind fishing out my cart either.
Incidentally, totes check your PMs. >_>
PMs? WHAT PM!? :W
... Darn it Sheep!! :W
We're talking about a super secret that we can't tell you. It's so secret that it'll blow your mind!
Also, Kayla says hello. Also, stop not being online when we're on! Gosh! You've missed out on so much, Doccy.
It's always your fault Sheep!
YOU created timezones! :W
Oh no... he figured it out! I mean... what? Why would I do that?! Time variants based off of the positioning of the sun and moon? That sounds like SCIENCE and as we know, I clearly only dabble in MAGIC.
Oh right. Starting to get off topic here. I hope S&M has outfits... X&Y are my favorite games for this function alone. I need to whip out my Y and check on my pretty trainer~
While it wouldn't be a deal breaker I really hope we have outfits again as well. And if we do have outfits both genders need a lot more variety in outfits.
Outfits would make me very happy. That's the best part of XY. I love me some futzing around and changing my clothes and being a total attention whore about it.
I'm just hoping for some more challenging Gym Leaders, maybe not Black and White Levels but at least Diamond and Pearl Levels of hard. I'll probably also limit my use of the Experience Share too depending on how the levels scale from Gym to Gym. I'd also hope for some better pacing, I think that's probably the main thing I was iffy about in X and Y.
For someone who was getting back into Pokemon after not playing for YEARS, I think XY did a fine job of easing me into it.
Oh yeah for sure, for new comers and people who stopped during Gen 3 it's pretty good. I think my complaints for lack of Challenge were more for ORAS than X and Y. I did have trouble with Valerie and [tornado fang]ing Wilkstorm or whatever the name of the Steel Elite 4 is.
But I do recommend you try HGSS sometime if you want to see a fun balanced game that's not too hard or easy, that will always be my favorite in the Series though Black and White is high up there. Also Totodile is very fun to use in that game.
Wikstrom. Yeah, he was a pain. I scraped through with an Ariados I got off Wonder Trade and Quacklin' the Farfetch'd. It wasn't pretty.
That Aegislash was a nightmare, especially since I was dumb and didn't use my Houndoom against it.
But yeah other than that I don't think I had too hard of a time, I think Korrina was also a bit annoying with her Hawlucha, I don't remember how well I did against Clemont and Grant, I don't think I curbstomed them so easily but they weren't challenging either. Everything after Valerie was breeze, especially since Olympia just had her Meowstics. Diantha is also the easiest Champion fight ever, not just because of levels but her team had a lot of exploitable weaknesses too.
However Ramos was probably the biggest pushover, his team just sucked, he's worst than Erika in games that aren't in Gen 1 due to the unbalnced battle mechanics in Red and Blue. Honestly the only challenging Grass type gym is Gardinia's in DPPt because she has a freaking Roserade. Really a lot of the difficulties in DPPt is you fight a lot of unexpected fully evolved Pokemon very early, and I'm not sure how much I like that. It almost feels bullshit at times, especially with freaking Mars' Purugly, [tornado fang] that thing so hard when you first fight it. Black and White relies more on crazy strategies while DPPt is kind of brutal difficulty that catches you off guard, however later in DPPt does rely more on strategy than burtality around the time you fight Crasher Wake in both DP and Pt I find since they change the order of when you fight certain Gym leaders in Pt.
I just found out that I spent way too much time grinding in Mt. Moon in Pokemon Red. My Pokemon are all Lv 20. I was thinking that the rival battle in Cerulean City was going to be tougher than it actually is. Oh, well.
Yeah the Rival battle isn't that hard, but I wouldn't say the same for Misty depending on your Pokemon and moves.
Quote from: Sakura Crockett on April 10, 2016, 11:02:15 PM
Yeah the Rival battle isn't that hard, but I wouldn't say the same for Misty depending on your Pokemon and moves.
That Starmie is no joke.
I didn't have too much trouble since I had an Ivysaur and Pikachu, but I know Misty is kind of infamous, not to the point of Whitney and Morty, but she's up there. However she's worse in Gen 3 with Water Pulse.
I have a Charmeleon, though. I'm probably going to catch an Oddish on Route 24 and train it up before I take on Misty. Mainly because Vileplume is a beast, plus I need a grass type.
Yeah Oddish should be okay with enough training, just keep in mind it will take a while to wittle that Starmie down since it's bulky thanks to the pre Special Split. Also I recommend not evolving Gloom until Level 38 at the earliest so it can learn Petal Dance.
So I got back to Blue after taking a break due to the Pokemon Mansion being slightly frustrating and my Item Storage actually got full. Yup, I need to figure out what to do about those crap ton of TMs, too bad I can't get rid of those stupid useless Key Items either.
So... A Zygarde is up for grabs on the Nintendo Network.
Available for XYORAS, it matches the Japanese release that was part of the Shiny Xernes & Yveltal event.
It's lvl100, no held item, a Classic Ribbon and has the moves Land's Wrath, Extreme Speed, Glare and Outrage.
More details of the Zygarde event and we're getting the Shiny Xerneas and Yveltal event as well, the info has been copied from Serebii.
Some new details have been revealed for the Zygarde distribution. First, in Europe it will end on May 26th. However, for North America, it will end on May 8th. Following the, from May 11th through May 17th a Shiny Xerneas will be distributed on the Nintendo Network. After that, a shiny Yveltal will be distributed from May 20th through May 26th, also on the Nintendo Network. European distributions of the shiny Pokémon are yet to be confirmed out of Spain.
We finally get our Bacon Yveltal. So happy :3
Awesome, legit shiny legendaries!
They will look great with legit Shiny Rayquaza. :3
Indeed! :3
... Darnit I need to make more space on my OR now. XD
I'm gonna have four bacon birds.
FOUR BACON BIRBS
EY KNO RITE
Well, I just received my codes for all the 3 HA Legendary Birds in my email.
Go grab them too.
EDIT:
Snow Cloak Articuno is lvl70, no items, a Classic Ribbon, in a Cherish Ball, and comes with Freeze Dry, Ice Beam, Hail and Reflect.
Flame Body Moltres is lvl70, no items, a Classic Ribbon, in a Cherish Ball, and comes with Sky Attack, Heat Wave, Sunny Day, and Safeguard.
Static Zapdos is lvl70, no items, a Classic Ribbon, in a Cherish Ball, and comes with Discharge, Thunder Shock, Rain Dance and Agility.
I doubt I'll be able to get out to Gamestop this week, but I'll try.
Why we can't get Darkrai through Mystery Gift? O:<
I stopped trying honestly. I haven't gotten an event legendary in months and - again - I have all four games.
I've already stopped, since I don't even play any more. I have VC Yellow and that's all for now.
Yeah, having missed Mew, there's little point to the rest. Except maybe the birds, Static Zapdos beats the heck out of Pressure Zapdos.
But it's Darkrai! D:
My only interest in Darkrai is laughing maniacally when my Mewtwo gets the upper hand over one. Same deal for Arceus.
Now, if they put out a Thundurus, I'd be all over that. I still lack OR/AS, and my GTSed Thundurus isn't native to Gen6.
Yeah after the Mew fiasco Gamstope has taken precautions for Darkrai in the event it runs out.
I also got an extra Darkrai Card if you want it Wily, my bro doesn't seem to give much of a damn.
I hope the Darkrai thing turns out well for Gemscope.
Gemscope, is that a person?

If he doesn't want it, sure, I'll take it! 8)
I'll try and get in to my local Gamestop this week.
MOAR :3
I probably won't be getting to a GameStop until near the end of the month.
I was thinking of going into town today, but the weather's too crummy to hoof it. So, I'm just going far enough to get laundry money. Will try and get into town later this week.
In the meantime, I picked up some random booster packs. Got a Greninja BREAK card and a Golduck BREAK card.
So the shiny Xerneas event has started.
Lvl100, with the moves Geomancy, Moonblast, Aromatherapy, and Focus Blast.
I was Wonder Trading to see if I could get Shinies and I got a Shiny Arceus wIth a free Earth Plate.
O:
that's sum catch.
I want to randomly get a Shiny Charmander to complete my Shiny Kanto Starters collection.
Happy trading then!
On a related note, bacon birb starts tomorrow~
I haven't Wonder Traded in a long time. I think I'll do so for a while...
I just downloaded my bacon birb. So I think it's live now. GET YER SHINY YVELTALS NOW
Good to know.
Meanwhile looking at a Pokedex entry I don't understand how Avalugg can be mistaken for an aircraft carrier when it's so tiny compared to an aircraft carrier. I mean the Pokedex isn't exactly known to make sense, but still.
An aircraft carrier to the Pokemon of the world. Plus it's just a way to explain why Bergmites can be found on Avalugg's flat back.
I now have four bacon birds.
I'll get me bacon birbs when I get back in 7 hours. XD
And I've got my 4 bacon birbs too~
TIME FOR A BBQ
I got my Bacon Birb, it's so cute. >w<
oh bbq
So nothing really interesting with Wonder Trading tonight, but I got a Pancham named Sewer Pickle of all things. It has a really bad Nature but I think I'll keep him just for that silly nickname.
Got some Zigzagoon named Analshart and fuc me plz. Yeah, I'll be releasing them eventually.
Ugh I don't blame you, poor Ziggies. :|
I used to just toss them into the Bank with my growing collection of dumb names, but I'm too lazy to care and need to thin out my collection anyway. Gotta make room in case I do another shiny breeding project.
Yeah I still barely use the Bank myself, but I'll probably use it for Moon, if only for my Gen 1 Pokemon.
My Bank is still completely filled with Ralts. XD
GENOCIIIIIIIDE :W
I got a Shiny Jirachi, and it's legit since it's a Bashful Nature.
... How is that legit?
Because that's a Neutral Nature, not to mention the IVs are not Perfect and it matches one of the Japanese events.
A Hacked Jirachi would never have a Neutral Nature period.
FOOLS
NEUTRALS ARE THE TRUE WINNERS
Not in a competitive scene unfortunately.
FOOLSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS *Flails*
But yeah this little guy was definitely not hacked, but it has been trained to level 100 however.
Just got a shiny Kyurem.
Now I feel bad because I sent out a Wurmple.
Serebii reports that if you missed the 20th Anniversary Mew, you can get another crack at it by signing up for the Pokemon Trainer Club newsletter before June. It is identical and thus cannot be redeemed by those who already got the last one.
http://serebii.net/news/2016/26-May-2016.shtml (http://serebii.net/news/2016/26-May-2016.shtml)
I guess this is their apology for crapass distribution. I went to three different Gamestops looking for that freaking card.
Crapass? I went to a Gamestop and this was what happened...
GSE: "Welcome to Gamestop!"
PB: "Hi yes, I need..."
GSE: "Mew cards? How many?"
PB "On.........Twoooo?"
GSE: /hands me two cards "There ya go!"
PB: "Thanks!"
Yeah that was basically my experience PB lol
They should do it for Darkrai, Arceus and Genesect too.
One Gamestop I went to only allowed two cards. Another I went to allowed more.
And I was unable to get into town to get Darkrai.
I am the fail.

Catch at least 20 Pokemon, talk to Professor Oak for the Truck Key, use the key to move the truck and there will be a newsletter invite code underneath
One thing I hope they do in Sun and Moon is fix some of the cries again because some of the updated cries in Gen 6 just sound bad.
Using the G1 chirps for VC-imported mons would be cool
I quite prefer the computer-generated screams of the damned.
Quote from: Reaper-tan on May 28, 2016, 07:45:20 AM
Using the G1 chirps for VC-imported mons would be cool
Especially for something like Vulpix.
I also hope the color pallet of some Pokemon gets better too, the reds on say Mr. Mime just don't look right.
That being said I did hate Pikachu's static cry before 6, though I'm not sure having the anime voice replace that was the right call either.
Oh man I completely forgot about the shiny Xerneas and Yveltal distribution until now. Anyone have a surplus of them they'd be willing to share?
*looks at my bacon birds*

I think I missed shiny bacon bird as well
Wily has four.
Yay
Let's bug him! 8D

Rude.
But Doc, we all live in a Pokemon World! :V
But... BACON BIRBS D:
The goodness of Bacon is better to share. :)
But they aren't surpluses! D:
Neither are mine, since three of them came from Wonder Trade, and only one of them is a promo.
Ah well! XD
Currently Wonder Trading. I'll let you know if anything comes of it.
QuickEdit: Shiny Flygon.
Manaphy wifi event is live! Get your Manaphy while you can! I just got mine!
I also just got a shiny Roserade through Wonder Trade.
Dammit I would have loved a Shiny Roserade!
And I just now got a shiny Tyrunt!
My Wonder Trade Shiny Box is filling up, so I'll soon put together a list of which ones I'll trade.
Did anyone get their Mew code yet?
I assume it would come with the newsletter. Did you get June's newsletter? If not, then I assume that the codes haven't been distributed yet.
I didn't sign up because I already have a Mew and Serebii said that the codes are the same so it won't work for me anyway.
None on my end. I signed up back with the legendary bird promotion earlier, so I SHOULD be getting it.
The Mew Codes are starting to send out now according to Serebii.
Yeah I just got mine.
Also my fiance, who loves his death birb, forgot to get his bacon death birbs :C
I just found out that Swirlix and Slurpuff can learn Surf....
I think I may need to draw something in response to that........
Swirlix will become part of the water... that's a bit creepy...
I decided to do Slurpuff since it's easier to draw for me.
I suck at drawing water though.
Don't forget to grab your WiFi Manaphy. The event is due to end this coming Friday.
My Mew Code was actually in the fine print of the Manaphy newsletter. Got both today.

So the Shaymin WiFi event is up.
Go grab your own adorable hedge-hog.
Grabbed my Shaymin. Will check its Nature later. Also did some Wonder Trading. Got a shiny Piplup.
Also, don't forget to grab the Gracidea at the Berry Master's House at Route 123 in ORAS, or the Snowbelle City Pokemon Center in XY, with Shaymin in your party, so that you can get change Shaymin into its Sky Forme.
SHINY PENGUIN
Just got a shiny Spiritomb!
That's a cool shiny ghost. O:
So, I recently restarted my Alpha Sapphire (after saving all of my mons into the pokebank) and downloaded a 2nd Manaphy. XD
I forgot how much Shaymin sounds like a tiny bird. Hedgehog why you sound like a bird?
It's the inner Sky voice! 8D
But a tiny flying Reindeer sounding like a Bird makes even less sense......
#PokemonLogic
Kind of unrelated, but if anyone's interested, Games Done Quick is about to start their Pokémon block with Pokémon Red.
Global Link is going to shut down and change for Sun and Moon.
It has been confirmed that the Generation 6 Global Link will end its service as of late October 2016 to make adjustments ahead of the release of the Global Link in Sun & Moon. When this happens, all features using the Global Link such as Logging in, Game Sync, Returning items into the game and Rating Battle will go offline, though the GTS, Wonder Trade and Free Battle will remain online. As part of a Thank You campaign, from July 26th everything on the PokéMileage Club will be 50% and Ability Capsules will be re-added for 5,000 PokéMiles a piece.
TIME TO GO SHOPPING
With how many PokeMiles I accumulate, I'll buy Ability Capsules in bulk!
I'm thinking of getting lots of Rare Candies myself.
Yep, time for some shopping indeed~

It seemed like only yesterday I was already trading for starters and now I cannot do that anymore. That is life I suppose but it does tell me that I need to complete my Pokedex before October.
.......This has nothing to do with the 3DS Wi-Fi, you can still go about your business. The Global Link is a completely different thing unrelated to that.
No skin off my back. I can keep the Feebas Charity running so no big deal.
Also I never used my pokemiles. Ever.
Although granted I started new files on all my games except Y (which I don't even play) so it doesn't matter either way.
I have like 97,000 on my Global Link for AS, I can get almost 800 Rare Candies.
Yeah but why would you level with rare candies ever?
...Actually that's unfair I'm like the only one here who cares about META
Considering there's a new Mechanic in Sun and Moon that requires your Pokemon to be at Level 100 to use it'll help.
Yea, with Super Training for EVs, and Hyper Training for IVs, Rare Candies are the rage for fast leveling up.
I know about Hyper Training but I didn't hear they removed regular Super Training or plain old EV Training?
EDIT: Wily ninja'd me ok
I still feel like it's more rewarding to level normally... But I guess...
Yeah I need it for the Pokemon I already EV Trained.
I'm not saying there's anything wrong with normal grinding, just taking advantage of conveniences. XD
I usually just grind up to at least 50 unless there's a Move I need to learn at a level higher than that.
I leveled with Rare Candies when I was trying to complete my PokeDex. I had over 100, so I had a couple Pokemon binge on Rare Candies. Normally, I just grind.
I grind for money. :P
Grinding for money is good. That's what the Grind Chateau is for! 8D
Did someone say grinding? [eyebrow]
.......PB grinds all the Pokemon? :-[
He grinds for money. 8D
Grinding is such hard work. *nods*
I put long hours in my grinding! 8D
Long and hard. 8D
The Global Link Poke Mile Sale is now live.
Time to transfer my PokeMiles between accounts! 8D
Is it just me, or is PGL having login problems?
It seems Volcanion is going to be distributed in October at Gamestops in North America for ORAS, it will be holding an Assualt Vest.
...
...
...
*internal screaming*
Now they just need to release hoopa outside of MacDonald's. |D
Yesssss... Volcanion will be coming soon... I guess I'll be scrounging up my legendary Pokemon and renewing my bank account pretty soon too
To US Players who missed out on getting Darkrai during May...

And that's the highlights during the World Championships Finals, some moments shared in multiple divisions.
Arceus' in His Hall of Origin, all's right with the Pokemon World.
Time for some nuclear rabbit power!
So yea, Victini is now available over the Nintendo Network, until 24th September 2016.
Hiya all!
So the 2nd chance Darkrai is finally out, but it isn't distributed in the Pokemon Trainer Club Newsletter as initially planned.
It is now out using the shared code Darkrai20 from now until 31st October 2016.
So if you missed out on the initial GameStop release, go grab it now! *yoinks*
And it's the 1st of October!
... At least it is for me. :P
Keldeo is now available over the Nintendo Network via Mystery Gift, until 24th October 2016.
Don't forget to head to Crooner's Cafe in Mauville City in ORAS, or to a house behind the Pokemon Center just left of the Abomasnow in Snowbelle City in XY, to teach Secret Sword to Keldeo. This will turn it into its Resolute Forme.
Finally! I can have a Keldeo!
You can also nab a Darkrai if you missed the Gamestop one. Enter the code Darkrai20
And to top it off Volcanion will be available at Gamestop on Oct 10 in the US.
Volcanion! *winkwinknudgenudge*
Uh speaking of which, I need to give Wily something that's long overdue......
:3
Also, the events keep coming!
There is now a 2nd chance Hoopa distribution for XYORAS, using the shared code 2016HOOPA.
This lvl50 Hoopa knows Hyperspace Hole, Psychic, Astonish and Nasty Plot, and holds a Smoke Ball.
With this Hoopa in your Party, when you enter a Pokemon Center in ORAS, you will receive a Prison Bottle that allows you to change Hoopa into its Unbound Forme.
EDIT: Oops, it should be entering a Poke Mart in ORAS, not Pokemon Center.
The above 2nd chance Hoopa event will end on 9th October 2016, so quickly grab it before time runs out!!
The Volcanion event is now live, so head to GameStop for your codes! *winkwinknudgenudge*
Just got back from Gamestop. I'll send the code over when I get home.
*vibrates in his seat vigorously* >0<
Finally got my Volcanion codes. Turns out EB Games can issue them as dlc items in the checkout, since I couldn't find any cards.
It's November, and time for Genesect to rise from the depths!
Don't forget to grab your codes from GameStop! *winkwinknudgenudge*
Yeah I'm grabbing mine after the next day I work and I'll send you one of those codes.
Yesssssssssssss *vibrating*
MOAR!!
Went to get Genesect. GameStop said they won't have them in until Wednesday due to a shipping issue.
Okay.
WEDNESDAY!! *vibrates*
Day after Election Day. So, Genesect will be here on the apocalypse.
Sounds perfect enough.
Purging and such.
To end the 20th anniversary Mythical Pokemon event, Meloetta's WiFi distribution is live. Go grab her, and once you do have her in your party, take her to the cafe in Mauville City (man near the entrance) in ORAS, or a house in Snowbelle City (behind the Pokemon Center, on Abomasnow's right, talk to the male Ace Trainer) in XY to learn Relic Song, that allows Meloetta to change formes.
Also, for Genesect last month, if it is in your party, talk to a guy in Mauville City (Northeast staircase) in ORAS, or a Hiker in Ambrette Town (in the fossil research lab) in XY to receive Genesect's 4 Drives to change Techno Blast's type.
ALSO!!
If you missed out on Arceus' GameStop event, a 2nd chance event is announced, used the shared code ARCEUS20 for US games, and ARCEUS2016 for Euro games. The event will last until 31st December 2016, so don't miss out on God again!
For those that missed out on the GameStop Genesect, the second chance event is now live! From now to 28th Feb 2017, you can get Genesect via the shared code GENESECT20 for US games, or GENESECT2016 for Euro games.
This will bring a complete end to the Gen6 events. Good night sweet Prinplup.
