So, does anyone know if aegislash learns new moves or if I should keep my duoblade for awhile?

It's signature and most important move King's Shield is apparently learnt as an Aegislash but I have no idea when. I also am scared to evolve it so I'm probably going to hold off and Move Relearner anything I missed when I evolve it

Just found TM Shadow Claw, Honedge power up!

 

[Trigger]

They won't let me name my fletchling, feltching?

This is criminal.

Lewd.

 

[Dryk]

What's the earliest I can catch Rhyhorn in the game? I know I can ride but I wanna catch it!

Glittering cave, directly after the Rhyhorn riding section

Everything in this cave looks amazing in this art-style too

 

[trinest]

Wait how do you unlock hair styles? Can you do the same for the boy?

Also why do the stores sell such shit clothes :|

 

[Wazzy]

Lewd.

In a fit of anger I was deleting the name and somehow I smashed fp and entered it. Now I'm stuck with it being named fp until I find a renamer. Ugh how will I survive?

Also team so far is Pidgey(Flyboi), Froakie(Choakie) and Fletchling. When do I get to choose my second starter? I'm in the forest.

 

[Goldenhen]

Where can I find Eevee? and where can I find GOOD ROD?

Thanks.

Wait, how do you evolve doublade?

 

[Forkball]

Hey all! I just got my Spewpa to evolve into a Vivillion and lo and behold, he evolves into a pattern I haven't seen yet! I was wondering if anyone had a list of all the patterns so far, as I'm having a little trouble finding one myself.

My pattern, the High Plains Pattern (I'm in Oregon, btw):


I actually really like it. I'm glad, I was kind of worried I'd be stuck with that unfortunate green pattern :\

I have the "modern" one though I'm not in Ohio.

 

[PaulExcellent]

Utah = High Plains.

Oh, and the game is so good.
Have spent 9 hours, and haven't even seen the second gym.

EDIT: Where is the name-changer guy at?

 

[Antiwhippy]

Wait, how do you evolve doublade?

Dusk stone.

 

[trinest]

Okay where are all the Noibat's hiding? Can't find them. (on Victory Road now)

 

[Mista Koo]

Vivillon's Sandstorm Pattern (Saudi Arabia):

You have a town map? You get the second starter in the big city in the middle (not for a while).

Name Rater is in the Pokemon Centre in the town at the end of Route 5 I think. Once you get to the town it tells you on the map so I'll double-check.

EDIT: Can confirm it's Camphrier Town

 

[roflwaffles]

Was this image just a hoax?

 

[FSLink]

Was this image just a hoax?

Yup, not real.

 

[Wazzy]

I'm finding it incredibly hard to find a male Pikachu. Found four females already but I don't like their tail.

Sweet, thanks.

Are you keeping a Pikachu in front while searching for them? Static ability increases chance of an electric Pokemon encounter so you should run into tons of Pikachu. Good for searching for the Light Ball item too.

If you are already, then unfortunately you just have bad luck, haha.

 

[Dryk]

There's so many Pokemon on every route, bad luck happens a lot. Apparently there are hordes of Taillow on Route 8 but damned if I can find them.

Okay where are all the Noibat's hiding? Can't find them. (on Victory Road now)

I was wondering where all the Woobat's in Glittering Cave where, turns out that the big shadows are ground-dwelling Pokemon and the second section has smaller shadows indicating flying Pokemon hanging from the ceiling. Maybe its something similar?

I wasn't actually so thanks for the advice! This will hopefully make it much easier, heh.

Edit- Just found one after doing what you said. Aw. Yiss.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Holy shit.

Did anyone else encounter the haunted office building in lumiose?

 

[Forkball]

HOLY SHIT A SHINY SIGILIYPH

 

[FSLink]

Now have fun finding a Light Ball. Took me like 10 Pikachu.

Thanks! You just made my day.

 

[Kurita]

That was said on Smogon, I hope so, didn't confirmed yet but sounds like it is true



no hats confirmed?, I like that

No, you can't remove your hat. That just happens when you get a haircut.

 

[Wazzy]

Found it on my first pikachu

..............

Oh well. Got one now. Gonna breed to get Volt Tackle since I've raised a Timid EV Trained Pikachu in Diamond already.

Possibly, but I've been looking for ages now. Havn't had any luck.

Would be better if I had a clearer idea on where to look. Or the rareity etc.

 

[Partition]

Best region ever? Best region ever.

After Hoenn, I agree.

 

[greg400]

I'm assuming IV's are still in this game, are they handled any different this time?

 

[Milennia]

7th gym is def my favorite of the game, but could also be either one of or my favorite gyms ever...

 

[Dryk]

Has anyone figured out if tipping does anything? I'm always buying ridiculous numbers of Pokeballs so I'd rather have the money.

 

[fraktur]

I'm assuming IV's are still in this game, are they handled any different this time?

they're still in. but we don't know how they fully function yet. there was a rumour that they get maxed out for wi-fi battles. we do know that breeding/inheritance system was changed though.

 

[Kinokou]

just hit route 8, how do I get Skrelp? old rod is letting me down so far...

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

That got debunked fairly quickly.

I wish they'd just put an NPC in the game that just gave you the exact IV's of your Pokemon instead of the stupid estimations they've been giving us up until now.

 

[Dryk]

I really wish we could get bred Pokemon in different balls.

 

[Kouriozan]

Do you know where? I could really use the move deleter.

It is in the town after route 15, after the 6th gym.

 

[harmonize]

Where do you battle Serena in Kiloude City? I need the Absol megastone, and Serebii says you have to battle her first.

 

[Exterminieren]

I dunno if you have to try the Friend Safari and Battle Maison first, but she's on the top deck next to the fenced-in pond.

 

[speedlolita]

Anyone know how to get the Discount Coupon for a 50% reduction in boutiques (seems to be hinted at by a few NPCs at least) or any information on entering "High Roller Sushi"?

These two are driving me mad in Lumiose.

I unlocked the hair styles by wearing items with a black background bought in the Lumiose Boutique, spent about $500,000 on one outfit for that reaction.

Have been doing the cafe battles too. May cost 100k to enter the 3* café but you get money per win plus the mushrooms you receive for winning total 137k or so.

Also went to Terminus Cave and caught the "Z" legendary with an Ultra Ball - pretty easy stuff again.

Looking forward to the guide coming out to reveal more boutique/reputation information.

The pigtails look amazing BTW, especially in motion.

 

[Spiritreaver]

Are there any fire TMs before the 5th gym? My Houndoom has had no special fire moves since the dawn of time.

 

[Exterminieren]

How do you get to meet the boss in the Lost Hotel? I was wearing the same outfit that got me in to the Lumiose Boutique, but no dice.

 

[PsionBolt]

It is in the town after route 15, after the 6th gym.

Thanks. I still have quite a ways to go before that, unfortunately.

Is there a maniac who buys those mushrooms?

 

[Styles]

Wait, so Noibat evolves straight to Noivern? I thought there would be another evo before Noivern. :/

 

[speedlolita]

Is there a maniac who buys those mushrooms?

Dunno, I just sell them in the Pokémon Centre.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Dunno, I just sell them in the Pokémon Centre.

Alright. In Unova you can find someone who buys them at a much higher price.

 

[Dryk]

Is it just me or do the Gen 3 Pokemon benefit massively from the shaded 3D models? Everyone I've seen has looked waaaay better than usual

(So happy, finally found the Taillows on Route 8 after searching all damn day)

Mine isn't on this chart. I got the "River" version and I live in Denmark

South Australia (possibly all of Australia) gets River too, it's nice

 

[MicH]

I have the "modern" one though I'm not in Ohio.

That's interesting.. Maybe there is someone the same in this game.

I remember seeing your post that you downloaded the Australian version I think? That'd probably be why, the River one is all of Australia.
