Not sure if this counts as it only used it once but I've had a wild pokémon kill itself using curse before.

Yeah, just not sure if a Pokemon would use curse if the enemy pokemon is already cursed, or if it would just fail if they try.

 

[McKeeverFever]

Where can I find the camera?

Hey guys is there any other way to get Dusk stone other than super secret training?

 

[toastyToast]

No one wants to help me trade-evolve my Scyther? I promise it'll only take a minute!

Thought you got someone already, I'll help you out

FC is 4742-5329-5117

You need Rock Smash and you need to get to Terminus Cave. It's in a little pocket in the south west/west of the main floor.

Thanks a lot, adding you now.

EDIT: What he said

 

[Vermillion]

Defense.. is it different for different people? And even if it is wouldn't you still put the EVs in attack because you can king's shield first turn?

Ah, wait - it seems like Aegislash's Attack and Defense don't really reverse, but rather one goes up while the other goes down. So you EV train Attack because the Defense is already super high from the start.

 

[Frogstep]

Welp, Mewtwo was a little rough to catch. Almost used the Masterball on him for nostalgia's sake. Zygarde on the other hand was kind of a push over.

Just missing Moltres and all the available legendaries will have been caught.

For those keen, this site has pictures of almost all the shiny megas evolutions and shiny new pokemon in all of their evolution stages (Ignore the article, it's rubbish).

http://www.gameranx.com/updates/id/...-x-and-y-shiny-starters-and-their-evolutions/

Some great ones (Chesnaught, Honedge/Doublade/Aegislash) and some duds. Some that are only slighlty different too.

Cool thanks a lot

Shiny Mega Gardevoir looks crazy.

And Meowstic is the best.

Not a problem, man.

Wish there was text chat, I was trying to give you that Frogadier

 

[Elija2]

Just caught Xerneas. Woohoo!

He then proceeded to faint almost right away in the next battle. Nice.

 

[enzo_gt]

Oh snap. It's cool, I've got a decent Greninja at the moment.

Think I'm ready to tackle Victory Road tomorrow.

[Spiritreaver]

I'm a little sad Aegislash has become so popular. I've dropped him from my final team because of it.

What's looking to be the best counter to him? I was thinking Sucker Punch Bisharp, but someone on Smogon claims he can't OHKO. *shrugs* I don't have much room on my team left anyway. Was thinking of just putting taunt on someone with a SE move.

 

[Shengar]

I am now a Marquis.

Allegedly, the battle chateau is the method of the Gym Leader rematches.


I'd say anything is fair game, bar speed as you want to be slow and HP due to it being mediocre. It actually has a respectable special spread so it could go mixed attacker. You'd probably have to forego a boosting move and/or King's Shield, though.

So I shouldn't invest any EVs because it's medicore? I thought it before that I should invest there instead so Aegislash could take a few more hit when in Shield mode. Now I'm getting really confused here @__@
Also, what's the recommended move pool for it? I'm planning to have King's Shield, Gyro Ball, Sacred Sword, and Shadow Claw.

Yeah a lot of those are pretty great. Really like Aurorus (and Amaura), both Meowstics, the Honedge line, Goomy line, Chesnaught, and Greninja.

Brave Aegislash with 252 Attack 252 HP
Swords Dance, Sacred Sword, King's Shield, Shadow Sneak.

Is the best I've found.

 

[Xenoflare]

Maybe this is covered before, but I would still like to ask....

How many different hairstyles can the male MC have? So far I've only seen 4... Very short, short, medium, medium permed, also, is the hat removeable?

Thanks

That seems to be all there is and no it's not

 

[zhorkat]

Finally beat the Elite Four. Ending was a bit silly.

 

[Shoyz]

Man the GTS only updates in chunks? Been refreshing for a Monsoon Vivillon for about an hour. Finally tried scrolling right to see I missed one for..a Pumpkaboo,.
Edit: And I miss another one because I moved away from my trade Vivillon to the Pumpkaboo. Figures

 

[Xenoflare]

Ahh bummer, but thanks anyways Glad to know.

 

[TheOGB]

Where can I find the camera?

Look for a black camera sign in these cities/towns

 

[Spiritreaver]

Wait, I just got a Lampent with Infiltrator LOL!

Is that even worth it over Flash Fire? Seems too niche.

 

[Gsnap]

Brave Aegislash with 252 Attack 252 HP
Swords Dance, Sacred Sword, King's Shield, Shadow Sneak.

Wouldn't iron head be better than shadow sneak?

 

[jelmerjt]

Why do only two Pokemon appear in my Friend Safari? I have beaten E4 (of course).

 

[Busaiku]

Flame Body does decrease hatching time right?
These Goomy Eggs take forever to hatch...
Pichu went by so quickly.

 

[ramyeon]

Why?

I've found Shadow Sneak extremely effective with Aegislash.

Yes Fletchinder is your best bet.

 

[Niraj]

He's probably like the other pseudos where the base number of steps is around 10k. Pikachu is more around 2.5k steps. Not accounting for the flame body halving, of course.

 

[macklelol]

Goomy eggs probably take 10k base steps to hatch, if it's like other psuedos. Pichu eggs take like 1/4th of that.

 

[autobzooty]

i have a ditto with almost every nature. 22 unique dittos. i just need a few more but FUCK this is so tedious.

 

[Busaiku]

YES PERFECT GOOMY
Will try for Shiny after I get the rest of my team.

So I'm thinking 252 Sp.Atk, but not sure if I should go HP or Def for the rest...

 

[Gsnap]

Why?

I've found Shadow Sneak extremely effective with Aegislash.

It just seems like shadow sneak would be more situational. Iron head has more type coverage, including fairy. And it's just stronger in general. So it seems like it would be more useful in more scenarios, whereas shadow sneak (I would think) would only be better in one situation. Using the priority to kill an opponent with low health before it kills you.

Granted, being a tank and attacker, Aegislash could end up in that scenario quite often...

 

[MegaKungFuRadio]

Am I missing something or does this game have the least amount of post game in a Pokémon game in a long time?

 

[fredrancour]

Yeah. Not that much less than gen 4 if you count megas as new pokemon.... though almost no one seems to except gamefreak.

 

[Busaiku]

Am I missing something or does this game have the least amount of post game in a Pokémon game in a long time?

It's got the most amount of pre-Elite 4 to make up for it.
But go around Lumiose for some of the best post-game content, and then Friend Safari for more Pokemon.

 

[Kenai]

The Looker stuff + Friend Safari + Terminus gave me quite a bit to do. There's probably more but eh, I only have so much time in the day. :[

 

[Frogstep]

Oh wow I didn't even notice lol. Thanks bud!

 

[McNum]

It is. The girl that gives TMs at different times each day has it

Wait, what? I remember getting a TM from a girl, yes, but I can't remember where or who. Can you tell me where to find her? I wonder if Gardevior can learn it, but I suppose that doesn't matter that much since Talonflame most likely can.

 

[unknownstranger]

Holy shit just found a shiny Lickitung on Victory Road. Got really lucky and caught it with a quick ball since any move from my Gardevoir would have probably killed it.

Yeah, I mean, I'm not complaining about the game being too short, but coming off B2W2, where it felt like half the game was after the E4, I can't help but feel a little disappointed that the two "dungeons" that were blocked for champions only were single rooms.

 

[nubbe]

holy crap. Saw this on my facebook timeline...

Free DLC I hope!

 

[TWILT]

Trying to hunt down Moltres is the most tedious shit.

 

[theprodigy]

haha Toxic stalling on Aegislash is hilarious

 

[Busaiku]

holy crap. Saw this on my facebook timeline...

This is the first time we don't know everything about the game because it was released almost a year ago in Japan, of course there's gonna be more.
