Just thinking about Altaria reminds me of contests, then I shudder in anticipation.

Hmm...dunno if it's worth it but would a payday secret base be valuable?
Right now I got 3 peeps in my secret base that run healing wish blisseys so exp is definitely no longer an issue. I wonder if payday has any value lol

I think I've got myself a keeper:
Thundurus - Timid - 29/18/22/31/31/31 (HP Ice)
This one took around 4 hours.

That is not my problem with her. I just think that she looks and sounds too fake/forced, and I hate that with a passion.

That forced little "cutscene" where you meet her is the low of the entire game.

How do you know/check for IV's?
I'm already past that point so it's too late for me, I soft reset once because the first time I got Latios it had a bad nature and the second time he had a modest nature and higher HP so I kept it.
Would like to know for my second play threw.

You put the stats into an IV calculator, an easy to use one is the Psypokes calculator
You plug in the stats of your freshly caught pokemon and this calculator will tell you what its IVs can be. The calculator will always return a range of possible IVs for a pokemon below level 100.
Did they change the regi unlock puzzles? I've tried:
-Circling clockwise and using every HM
-Circling counterclockwise and using every HM
-Going to the center of the room and using every HM
-2 steps left, 2 steps down from the center of the braille and using every HM
in all 3 regi caverns and I've only been able to get Registeel's door to open.

Flash is no long an HM so that is one you are missing.(i might be wrong on this) and one i thought you have to wait and do nothing for awhile.
We've known about it before the game came out. It's the release event, they've done similar things since B/W.
Dang, I thought this was Game Freak's apology for making me face a shiny before I could get pokeballs.
You can cheat by looking at Serebii.
Your memory has just changed.
Wanted to try to do as much as I could off memory. But I guess I was mixing up the Ruby/Sapphire solutions with the Emerald solutions.
You're right that Flash isn't an HM, but I actually did have it with me. Apparently it isn't needed anyway though.

Time to see if my collection of Zygardes can be used to trade for other legendaries in ORAS. (Half a box of them, all from stupidly cheap trades in GTS)

I just got my Latios and I have to say, I don't know why GF is so obssesed in making this game easier and easier, I mean,
I'm not obssesed with the past or anything, I always embrace change (most of the times) when it comes to Pokemon and I've been playing all the games since Red/Blue, but when I was a kid you had to fight for the legendaries and waste all of your pokeballs to catch them (sometimes having to reset because of running low). Why do they have to make it easier just for kids? I was a kid when I played Red/Blue and I sure didn't complain because it was difficult, I just played the shit out of the game until I was good at it.
Sadly, making things easier will only result on the new generation of gamers being spoiled kids that can't take a challenge and will only play a game in which you press A and win instantly.
they give you a legendary pokemon like it's nothing, it's like:
"Hey look, there's a Latios over there, do you want it?"
"Sure why not?"-Latios joined your party!

because roaming pokemon suck. it's not like the game has any shortage of legendary pokemon to battle and catch normally.

No roaming Pokemon is a huge plus for me.

The only problem I really had with it is that you got its mega stone as well.

I wasn't talking just about roaming, but pokemon like the Regis or the Fairy trio, they're standing there but you have to fight them anyways. Latios is just there, chilling out and suddenly BAM it's in your team. I was expecting at least a difficult fight there.

Any good move sets/ pokemon to use for contests? I've never really had an interest in them but I want the mega stone or whatever. I already did cool with my blaziken so I just have the other 4 left

So, a quick question for everyone in here.
At launch I got Pokemon Y. Put about 25 Hours into it so far (but Animal Crossing took over my life, so it got a lower priority).
The main reason I haven't played more of Pokemon Y is I really just don't like the pacing, and feel the environment and main areas (at the start) are just bland. Side note: It is the first Pokemon I have played since the original Pokemon Red.
Now, with that in mind, would everyone here suggest I try Pokémon Omega Ruby / Alpha Sapphire? I really like the presentation, Art Style and controls of X / Y, but not so much the stuff I just stated.

We can agree that Roaming Pokemon suck, but giving you a legendary in the middle of the game probably isn't the best thing to do.

Wait I was under the impression that you have to fight the Latis anyway. (Game is out tomorrow here)
They just give them to you? Whaaaat

It should be like that for every legendary. Please do that next game GF. Soft resetting is already painful enough.
I'd rather do a battle than an unskippable five minute cutscene each time.
EDIT:
FWIW, Hoenn (the region in OR/AS) is my favourite Pokémon region (despite all the water routes). You also don't have any ridiculous gaps between things happening like you did between the first and second badges in X/Y; the beginning is definitely better IMO.
You can just get a Powersaves 3DS device to alter your Pokémon's IVs if you don't want to go through the trouble of soft resetting.
ORAS' environment is pretty bland imo
A lot of grass and water
It's one legendary and it was done for the story (and to some degree, to highlight an upcoming mechanic)
Don't see the need to complain since you get to capture the other legendaries in the normal way anyway
A lot of people using ubers don't know how to play competitively
It was the same for XY

Ditto is post-game, unfortunately. Can trade one from XY, though.
