The small road leading up to Perfume Palace. They can jump out of the bushes and attack you.
This is one of my complaints about the online. As far as I know, you only have a choice between two rulesets: Normal and Flat. Normal sets all Pokemon to level 50. Flat lowers all Pokemon levels above level 50 and bans "special" Pokemon, duplicate Pokemon, and duplicate items.
I guess I'm just going to stick to Flat unless I'm playing a friend who wants to play with below 50s.
Thanks!
What do you mean by "puts an upper bound at level 50?" Can you have Pokémon over lv. 50 and it'll simply scale them to lv. 50? If so, Flat sounds like the way to go.

The Flat Battle ruleset is what you're looking for, but in every format but Triples you only pick a certain amount of Pokemon from what ya got after seeing your opponents'. Think Pokemon Stadium.
Do note that on the Battle Spot only Rating Battles restrict Special Pokemon.
I'll probably make two Greninjas. One special and one Physical. A timid and a jolly one.
Lol haven't done it yet so I can't say. Also Flat is limited to 3 Pokemon. You can see these rules by setting up a battle and checking Battle Rules.
Oooh, that's how it works. That makes things interesting I guess. I still wish there were a way to set settings individually though.
At least in x version, hes there pretty early. I got mine around level 6-7. Not sure route. Maybe2 or 3.
Edit - speling. On mobile.
May I have one of your leftovers (possibly female) when you're done?
If I get any good ones, sure. Though i've only gotten 3 females out of the 3 boxes of Froakies I have so far, and none have good stats besides the one i'm using now
Just filled my 6th box of Tyrunts. No shiny yet.
I've only gotten shinies using the fishing method, which has netted me a shiny Clauncer, Remoraid, Poliwhirl and Skrep (in Y)
I tried using the Pokeradar for a bit, but yeah.. I lost my "touch"
I used to be pretty good in Diamond (getting shiny Ralts, Surskit, Mareep, Tyrogue and two Snubbull). Can't even get a chain above 10 anymore :/

Just redid the EV page on the site. Someone's probably already posted this but it's a useful tip none-the-less.
Super Training doesn't make EV training easy...Hordes do.
Takes what, 2 minutes to do a Level 3 Mini-game to get +12 in a point. Sounds good, right?
Let's say we're EV training in Speed.
Your Pokémon is PokéRus'd and holding the Power Anklet. That's +8 on any Pokémon.
Battle a Zubat and that's normally +1,+2 with PokéRus, so that's +10.
Go to Connecting Cave and use Honey and/or Sweet Scent. Zubat Horde. 5 Zubats. +50 in one minute. Five of them, and then a standard Zubat, and you're fully EV trained in that stat.
Absolutely glorious, you can fully EV train in a stat in 5 minutes.

Really? There's no option to do a straight six v six at all?

I know your pain... I'm at 9 boxes of Tyrunts.
You gotta get PokeRus though, which is a hassle in and of itself. Super Training is really easy to use and convenient, but it's good that they have alternative ways in the game for others who want to do it the traditional way.
You can turn that off in the options dude.
Speaking of EV training, does anyone have pokerus they could send to me?
Are you using filters? They fubar it for me.
Easy these days thanks to Wonder Trade.

Yeah. I just tried making the same trade without filtering the search results beforehand and it worked. That's weird.

Are there increased chances of finding a shiny in the friend safaris? I've found a Venomoth and my cousin found a Dewgong I think it was.

Got a perfect Mawile now. Now to find the Mawilenite.
Use a Pokemon that is around the similar level as them that knows Earthquake. It will be SE on the Seviper, but should not kill the Zangoose.

So I'm not the greatest at breeding, but I've managed to get an outstanding Scyther with three perfects. Not sure if I should keep at it, or stick with that one.

So it's more or less confirmed that shinies are more common in XY, right? I haven't seen any yet but that's just my luck.

I got one of those last night from Fish Chaining.
I feel your pain bro. Yes, they are more.common but not for us :'( Even though I have 4 of them for previous games.

What
sub-30 seconds or bust
Metagross out and include Gardervoir for your Phsychic and Fairy types
Uggghh, you're right, but I don't have to like it...
Yeah, you start completing Level 3 training regimens in ~10-15 seconds (mostly because of the intro). I usually do 2 or 3 in a row then hit the punching bags. Super Training is awesome and I hope it becomes a permanent fixture in the series. ST, Amie, and PSS are infinitely more useful than the crappy C-Gear in Gen V.

The level 3 mini-games are actually harder than expected with some Pokémon, especially if they are lacking in base stats.
Hordes can give you a lot of them at once... provided that you have both PKRS and the right Power Item. Then there's the thing that you might not want to expose your Pokémon to freaking Pursuit (FLOATZEL).
Both have their places - and, I, for one, welcome our Super Training overlords.

There is nothing wrong with having a large weakness to one type if you have a reliable answer for it. Whether it's through move coverage, abilities, etc.
Fire weakness isn't a huge deal if you have a way to deal with key fire threats. If you're good at predicting pick up a guy with Flash Fire and abuse the boost. This kinda stuff is harder to do against competent competitive players, but your average joe online will not know how to handle it.
Sad how many people I've seen leave their Delphox/Blaziken/Lucario out against Mamoswine.
It's better to just catch a Seviper and trade it on the GTS for a Zangoose.
1. Do tons of wonder trading -> get pokemiles.
2. Trade pokemiles for rare candy on pokemon-gl.com
3. Success!
Thanks, but already took DaBoss's advice. I'm in capture mode at the moment, sweet scent and earthquake, didnt take long at all. Plus I already have a Kadabra sitting on the GTS,
Thanks!
