Managed to jump in when some pokeyoutubers were wondertrading today. Only thing worthwhile was a Gyarados.
However seeing the youtuber get a Shiny Kyurem live is depressing =/
I've been an avid launch window player for every game over the last several releases (BW, BW2 and XY) but missed the boat on ORAS till now due to being busy.
Just nabbed Sapphire and am wondering if there are any fast facts or need to knows that the community recommends before I start in?
Where's the best resource/info dump for explaining how Bank works with this game? Like, can I bank all my Pokemon and get them into ORAS right away, after the first gym, or post-game only? Etc.
Also, any time limited giveaways happening?
Thanks!

Just got the 7th badge. Team is in the 42-43 range.
Think I'm going to clear out the surfing routes before continuing on win the main story. Going to try and squeeze a few more levels out for my team before I have to resort to VS Seeker grinding with EXP share on. I don't mind finishing the game underleveled but it feels like the EXP curve is starting to suck. Trainers with pokemon in the 40s only have one or two. I crushed the gym leader easy enough though.

I got a 3DS for X-Mas. I have never played a Pokemon game but always wanted to see what they were all about.
Would these two new ones be a good place to start? And do I have to buy both..if not, which should I get?

Get Alpha Sapphire. The newest ones are indeed a great place to start, but you only need one, and Team Aqua has the superior girl. Then if you like it you can get X or Y and then you'll be pretty much set.

Thanks! Sorry for the uninformed questions..but why do they put out two at a time?

By making a few Pokemon exclusive to a version, it forces players to interact with others.
But she's taken. You're not one of those sick people that enjoys NTR are you?
Nah i would say go for Xy if you've never played pokemon before. You can pick it up for under 20 bucks often so it wont be a big deal if you decide not to play it again and it has more pokemon than you can find in ORAS. Unless you want tons of legendary pokemon then ORAS is cool.
Personally i found Hoenn to be boring as hell. It totally feels like you are encountering the same fights over and over again
He'd have to be considering how thirsty May is.
You sure? She looks like she's a single lady.
She only has eyes for Archie.

If you happen to go to other Pokemon communities or come across codes for the Scrap Campaign... you could legitimately get a Victini this generation if it's important.
1 card = Shaymin
7 cards = Keldeo
16 cards = Victini
Only thing is you might be able to trade for a code specifically, but someone might want something pretty difficult to get in exchange for it. Or you could collect the card codes themselves (which is different than the Pokemon specific code). Card code you have to sign up for an account on a Japanese website and it gives you codes along the way for ths specific things you meet requirements for.
On a side note, if anyone happens to get any Pokemon codes (as in you signed up for an account and actually already have Pokemon code in hand) that they need help getting, let me know. Willing to help if/when I can. I plan on doing a lot of restarting on my Japanese game to get some things done before actually playing a game on it.

At least you can speed it up by running. Three days and counting but still no sparkling crescent moon

So I beat the 8th Gym is it time for Victory road or are there other places I should visit first.

I'd say go straight there and explore the waters after.
Blissey makes a good special tank. Aromatherapy is very helpful.
I'm not sick...
NTR's the best... only in fiction and not real life

K, I'll do that, stopped playing for a week because I got kinda lost lol.
Yeah, good idea. Finish the E4 so the game world opens up some more. You can do the Delta Episode right away, and then get into finding TMs, mega stones, plates, whatever else or finishing your Dex.

True, but my Latias is the story Latias. On day #23 now myself. It's been a depressing run at it.

Lately I've been watching some Japanese streamers; been learning Japanese Pokemon names along the way.
How does one get the card codes? You have to go to specific pokemon events or something?
I'm still not clear on the scrap campaign. So I read the website and there are different products with the codes, I went to Mega Tokyo the other day to pick up some goodies, but none of the snacks there had codes, only the cards and I don't play the TCG anymore. What products have you found the scrap codes on?
One of my coworkers was heartbroken to find out that Kamonegi's English name was Farfetch'd.

Can't find the Tohato salad crackers anywhere.
I got buttloads of BP in X. Could get you one or two of those.

You know, I hope we get to visit Cynthia's home region in Gen VII.
I'm still curious about the mysterious souvenir in X......
I'd be thankful if you grab as many as you can.
I was unlucky & my SD card got damaged a few months ago & lost all my Pokemon Y data.
Thus am trying to rebuild my dex in Alpha Sapphire now.
My FC: 2406-5158-6932
Lemme check what I can get. DO you happen to have a HA Pancham or Karrablast?
