Pokémon XY |OT2| Would you like to leave a tip?

Not open for further replies.
So instead of displaying my inventory, my Pokemon, or maybe even a minimap of the current location on the bottom screen, I can watch my Pokemon hit a sandbag or jump around on an empty field, or view a list of random other players.

And is there seriously no way to display the Pokedex as a simple list?

edit: A low battery warning? ..I just plugged the 3DS in. This is so stupid.
 
30 hours into the game and I just got
Lucario
, feels like I'm taking this game pretty slowly compared to most people here.

I'm pretty impressed with the artstyle and animations they chose for the game. GF really nailed it in my opinion.
 
So what was the point of the Scary House? That scene was so pointless and I messed up and didn't tip because the prompt was so sudden.

It said something scary would happen if you didn't tip so I purposefully didn't tip. I expected something like he'd battle you or something but nope. Nothing.
 
So if I have beaten X but am playing through through Y (3rd badge) will it still count my safari as having beaten the E4?

Edit: Sorry sent as private.
 
What's the Friend Safari guys?
A town unlocks where you can go into a building and everyone on your friends list has their own safari. It's a small pen-like area that consists of two to three (You get your third once you beat the Elite Four.) Pokemon of the same type. Everyone has one, and the more friends you have the more friend safaris you have to explore.
 
Is the high roller sushi place a waste of money? I'm pretty sure I lost some when I went.



Punch the default bag until one drops.
I think it is just a random drop. I got one while just hitting the normal bag.

No training, just keep hitting the regular bags (i.e. no special attribute) and you might get one.

Alright thx. No idea how I've ever got one in the first place then lol
 
Nintendo is new to the internets
please understand

I use Game Sync everyday at night with no problems. What are you talking about? The GL page has been up for like a week.

If anything, this game is a perfect sample of what Nintendo games should be doing online-wise.

Also will people ever get through their heads that Nintendo /= Game Freak
 
Added you :D
My FC also is in my profile.

Thanks! Got some badass Frogadiers. Did you happen to check mine?

Also, a question for the breeders: do perfect IVs get passed down when breeding? Like if I had a female worth perfect atk/sp at and a male worth spd/def would all those categories come down or is it still as random add ever? How does one go about getting more than 2 perfect IVs?
 
So so far, it seems...

1: You can continuously battle the elite four
2: You can battle strangers in Lumoise City
3: You can battle people in the battle chateau. Lots of money for that.
4: You can earn money doing jobs in Lumoise City.
5: You can battle your rival again.
6: You can do the restaurant battles, and also earn a decent sum from those.

Any others I'm missing?
 
Welp, that was easy

Breed Pokemon, Wonder Trade them, use PokeMiles to buy Ultra Balls from Lumiose PokeCenter/Global Link and sell them back.
 
Get Bargain Power 3, use it. Buy Premier balls one at a time until you get 300 or so, and then sell them back.

You. I like you.

One question though, I'm being offered the mega stones for 10k now, which is max right? I've scoured the hotel for the o-power guy and I can't find him. What's his exact location in there?

I have all the other powers.

EDIT: Ignore me, I was looking in the wrong location...

If you've got a napping Pokemon (laying sideways) wake them up and they'll refreshed and you'll see a happy face. Once they're in that state start hitting the neutral bag and it'll start raining bags. No way to guarantee a Reset but this is probably the best way to get as many bags as possible
 
So...
Tell me about these item buffs.

essence, plates and others..
is essence stronger than plates? or vice versa.
The essence shop sell a variation of the same type of essence which should i get?






FC: 3153-3811-3474
PM me i add back.
 
Well.. I take back what I said about the new Exp. Share. I thought it just spreads the EXP as if all 3 took part in the battle, but it somehow gives birth to EXP out of nowhere. And worse of all, it doesn't even negate EXP management because the one fighting is still getting more EXP than the rest. That's, um, unusable.

Now the situation is worse because I don't get the normal Exp. Share either. I'd take sharing EXP between a part of my team over not at all :(

As far as my team goes, it's progressing, but I doubt I'll be able to keep a Gen 6-only team for another playthrough. My plan B, in case that happened, was to have a mono Fairy team for the X playthrough, but I'm not sure if that's realistic either.
Plan C is to have a power team of 3 instead of 6, last time I did that in Black it was really fun and surprisingly challenging.

Starting to get a bit overwhelmed because I had my most successful blackout ever leading up to XY. I really know nothing and the amount of new touches is crazy. Weather abilities only last 5 turns? Tips? Wonder trades? I might just sit on a wiki after all, because I'm not used to playing without knowing everything.
 
essence, plates and others..

The incenses that give certain moves power buffs would be identical to their equivalent plates, but for the most part their main purpose is to be used in breeding for baby Pokemon in evolutionary lines where the baby was introduced after the the second evolution. Most incenses are identical to other held items in the game too.

Plates will power a certain move's type by 10%, but they have another purpose of changing Arceus's type.
 
Wow, they turned Druddigon from looking really stupid to looking almost cool. I was sad to see sprites go originally, but the 3D helps make a lot of the old Pokemon look much better.


It's still a weird design...

He is huge though, I though he was a small pokemon. Some things are weird though, I saw Banette blink and it caught me by surprise, I though his eyes where painted no real.

The size are still weird, Noivern looks huge but he shouldn't be any bigger than Altaria.
 
Where can I get a more powerful Psychic move for Medicham than Confusion?

You'd probably want to use Psycho Cut or Zen Headbutt, but the former is an egg move and the latter was a tutor move and I don't think there's any tutors in X/Y yet. Psychic is a TM as usual, so that'd be an option though I don't remember where it is.
 
If you beat the game a new town is unlocked. There every friend you have registered has a small "garden" with two (three if said friend has beaten E4) Pokemon of a fixed type that you can catch in the grass there. Furthermore, the Pokemon there have two IVs maxed. We have a sperate thread for the Friend Safari, including a list of members and the Pokemon you can find there.

That's crazy!

Honestly I feel swamped in all this new stuff. It's too obvious I haven't played Pokemon for over 10 years.
 
Quick question, I'm at the 5th gym, the one with the questions. Should I do the wrong answers too for extra xp or does that mess something up?
 
Fuck, where's that other clothes shop other than Boutique Couture? I thought it was in Lumiose City, but the map shows only one clothes store.

Oh ok. thanks for the info.
 
don't know if anyone else tried this, but does the PGL allow you to sync more than one game?
I just "finished" Y earlier this morning, and gonna start X later today.
I'm assuming it doesn't, but just checking
 
I finally managed to get all the Kanto and Kalos starters. Now I need to figure out how to get all the Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, and Unova starters. I should probably continue the game though. Only have 4 badges so far and I spent like 3 hours yesterday just trying to hatch Eevee eggs.
