Need to evolve my Sligoo and it isn't raining anywhere, grr. Anyone have any advice or am I just going to have to get lucky?

If you have a Rare Candy, check towns out as well. I evolved mine in the second gym city when it was raining there by using a candy.

It often rains in Cyllage City, I've noticed. Try flying to and from there a couple of times.

 

[nubbe]

Fighting Mewtwo, keep on throwing balls at it, it runs out of moves, uses struggle and kills itself

Mewtwo will not accept anything less than the Master Ball

 

[darkpaladinmfc]

Mewtwo will not accept anything less than the Master Ball

I got it in a regular Pokeball.

 

[Macka]

Cheers, it was raining in Cyllage after a while. Goodra is amazing!

Another question: did they update the cries for all old Pokemon? I don't think they have but my friend is convinced they've all been redone...

 

[nintendoman58]

Wow. I actually feel kind of cheated. I caught Mewtwo in a dusk ball.

On my second throw.

What am I supposed to use my Master Ball on now?

 

[nubbe]

I got it in a regular Pokeball.

How dare you treat a god like a filthy peasant?

 

[MegaMelon]

Hold up, I thought you could only get 2 of the kanto stones in one game? One from the professor and one from the stone guy?

 

[darkpaladinmfc]

How dare you treat a god like a filthy peasant?

Master Ball is treating him like a peasant. He deserves to be able to put up a fight ;(.

 

[MicH]

I caught Mewtwo in a Quick Ball. I fucking love these!

 

[Edag Plata]

How dare you treat a god like a filthy peasant?

I dunno, I somehow managed to catch Yveltal with more than half health with two tries of a PokeBall. Still trying to figure that one out.

 

[Nocturnowl]

I caught Mewtwo in a Quick Ball. I fucking love these!

Caught Zygarde in one this morning myself boosted further with that catching O power, so good.

I'll have to try the same for Mewtwo due to its annoying recover move.

That is just an event

You get to re fight him indefinitely if you accidentally kill him... like I did 3 times in a row

Wow are you serious? I was actually nervous about killing Xerneas since I forgot to save beforehand.

 

[Kiraly]

Is there a list of things to do after beating the Elite 4?

 

[nubbe]

Wow are you serious? I was actually nervous about killing Xerneas since I forgot to save beforehand.

It is similar for Ho-Oh and Lugia in HGSS

DAT PANDERING TO OLD FANS

GF DOESNT KNOW INNOVATION

 

[afoni]

So is that current mega stone list absolutely complete or are there potentially more?

 

[strangedopamine]

Found this on Smogon which they found on /vp/:

Something is definately up with the shiny encounter rate...

 

[nubbe]

Shiny aren't that special when they become common

In the old games, I could get 1 to 3 in 200 hours for one game

 

[aett]

Are there any move lists for the starters available? I want to know when Greninja finally gets a Dark move.

night slash at 70 i believe

You're better off looking for the Dark Pulse TM. Not until 70.

Movelists in general, your best bet is probably Smogon.

 

[DSmalls84]

I unknowingly picked Amaura over Tyrunt. Is one better than the other for competitive play or both pretty much equal?

 

[Kiraly]

I still haven't found any shiny

 

[Spiderduff]

Mewtwo will not accept anything less than the Master Ball

Lies! I caught him with only my second duskball.

Holy crap.

Wtf. This is a shiny fluffy paradise.

 

[strangedopamine]

and another thing I found:

Contrary Serperior is now legal.

70? Wow. Thanks guys!

 

[xeleion]

I dunno about Amaura, but a Lonely Tyrantrum with with max Atk and Spe EVs is downright terrifying. They know Bite from the getgo but I'm pretty sure they will learn Crunch eventually.

 

[Zelias]

and another thing I found:

Oh my. How do you get Serperior? Is it available through Friend Safari?

 

[Starwolf_UK]

If you kill Yveltal, you get to rebattle him... indefinitely

Does this mean that if you have no Pokeballs at this point you can get the game stuck in a loop? Well, until you run out of PP and struggle yourself to death (or otherwise purposely white out) I suppose...

 

[strangedopamine]

Serebii doesn't have it listed on the Friend Safari page. So I'm not sure.

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

So, I realized from that list of trademarked names awhile back...

ディアンシー, Diansii
ハリボーグ, Haribougu - Quilladin
ゲコガシラ, Gekogashira - Frogadier
ボルケニオン, Borukenion
デデンネ, Dedenne
ホルビー, Horubii = Bunnelby
ニャオニクス, Nyaonikusu - Meowstic
ブリガロン, Burigaron - Chesnaught
トリミアン, Torimian - Furfrou
テールナー, Teerunaa - Braixen
ジガルデ, Jigarude - Zygarde
マフォクシー, Mafokushi - Delphox
フーパ, Fuupa
ゲッコウガ, Gekkouga - Greninja

Diansii, Fuupa, and Borukenion do not match up with any currently known Pokemon's JP names. These could simply be unused trademarks, or non-Pokemon names mistaken for them, but it's still a bit interesting since they sound like possible Pokemon. Event Legendaries coded in the game?

 

[speedlolita]

Are you able to buy Vitamins anywhere - with money?

 

[Exterminieren]

Interestingly, it doesn't seem that version exclusives are as exclusive as I thought. Just caught a Spritzee in X, from the Friend Safari.

Where the hell do you get Serperior?!

 

[nubbe]

No.
You go into the over world if it faints

So you can run back, heal and pile up on more balls

 

[strangedopamine]

Where the hell do you get Serperior?!

A quote from the person who posted that picture:

The guy who took the picture said that his NPC multi battle partner in the Battle Maison was the one who had the Serperior. I haven't made it to the Friend Safari yet so I don't know if it's there or not but this at least proves that Contrary Serperior does exist and will be obtainable somehow.

We'll just have to wait and see.

 

[AnkiRendan]

Aww damn, got my hopes up. I'm just one Pokemon away from trying a dream team playthrough (Oshawott).

 

[Zelias]

Are you able to buy Vitamins anywhere - with money?

You can in one of the Pokemon Centers, forget which one exactly. I'm thinking the city with the Fairy gym.

 

[Troubled Bat]

What are some good things for Fenneken? Or just the entire line in general. Just asking, to help somebody out.

 

[speedlolita]

Speaking of Fennekin.

Not perfect by any means but it has +Sp. Atk (-Sp. Def) and good EVs.

There's probably a sweet spot between common and ultra rare. 1/8192 is a bit too rare I think. Some people never see one in 600 hours of play.

 

[entremet]

and another thing I found:

It was never illegal. They just never released it for Gen V.

I guess they're at the friend safari as all dream world pokes.

Is that how that works? Hmm... well, better than playing (really annoying) browser minigames. Do friends/I need to be online for it to work, or you just register them?

 

[Deleted member 13876]

Wtf. This is a shiny fluffy paradise.

It's hell at the same time because you can only catch one and you'll forever wonder if the one you didn't catch didn't have a better nature etc.

 

[Caladrius]

I haven't seen one in over 1100 hours across 13 years.

 

[speedlolita]

I had 1100 hours on one of my Sapphire saves..

Lol. I've only seen two in my experience though.
