[Cloud Strife]

Picked up the game at Wal-Mart as soon as it opened and my impressions so far...

HOLY SHIT!!!!!

This game is amazing!!!!! Just beat the first gym and evolved my Fennekin, taking a break now but it's gonna be so hard to stay focused during hmwk.

Anyway to turn roller skates off? Slow moving through grass is annoying...

Sadly no, you have to use the D-pad and B button to run.

 

[Magicman103]

Just got Pokemon Y.

Oh, derp. Thank you

 

[Revven]

Finished downloading Y, gonna have to start playing soonish but got some things to take care of first, unfortunately.

 

[PowderedToast]

just picked it up. first impressions, the UI is butt ugly

i like the dynamic camera as you're moving through towns. the lack of 3D is still disappointing.

 

[kewlmyc]

Is it true that some of the digital versions aren't working when downloaded?

 

[Ark]

At what levels do Scatterbug and Spewpa evolve?

 

[Teknoman]

I've had someone request over PSS to see mine and I had to allow the transfer of my PR Video.

Great, exactly what I wanted to hear. PSS is going to be so much more useful than C-Gear.

Ok is this the same in other countries as in the UK, that the eShop price is £39.99 yet i can get it from online sites (shopto) for like £32.89!!. I expect the DD version to be as cheap as online site or cheaper. Why am i expected to pay more for DD version than a physical retail version, as im not getting anything physical so should be cheaper for the end user right??

On another note what are the main differences between the 2 version, just the 2 cover pokemon ( Xerneas & Yveltal) and Clauncher (X) & Skrelp (Y). And 2 different Mega Evolution forms for Charizard and Mewtwo, Is that all thats different??

If you're wanting a digital version, just buy a digital code from GAME for £35.

 

[Minto]

Is it true that some of the digital versions aren't working when downloaded?

Mine keeps locking up and sometimes my DS just dies. Not good.

Downloaded from the UK eshop last night.

 

[Dr. Buni]

Man, the Gym Leader music is SO good.

At what levels do Scatterbug and Spewpa evolve?

09 and then 12.

 

[789shadow]

Great, just great. My brand new 3DS XL Pokemon edition is ALREADY GETTING LINES OF DEAD PIXELS ON THE BOTTOM SCREEN.

 

[SloaneRisette]

Work in about an hour and all I wanna do is play Pokemon

Everyone please have fun so time speeds up for me.

 

[Forceatowulf]

Picked Y up this morning. At least 15 people there including me. ALL of them grown ass men save for one teenager who had to be 14-15.

Most of them were pretty normal though. I get the feeling we'll all be doing this till the day Nintendo stops making these games.

Just opened up my new red Pokemon 3dsXL too! And.... It's.... beautiful....

 

[Zafir]

Man, the Gym Leader music is SO good.

Yep. Shame the 3DS speakers ruin it mind you.

 

[Shengar]

Yep. Shame the 3DS speakers ruin it mind you.

Don't let that ruin your E4 and Champion battle. Make sure your high-end headset at the ready when the time come.

 

[Dr. Buni]

Yep. Shame the 3DS speakers ruin it mind you.

Headphones help improving the quality a bit, though.

Level 30 onwards turning the 3DS upside down after leveling up

Seriously? That's pretty silly.

Uhhhhhhhhh..... I have half the mind to get the digital version but..... Is this true? Don't want to spend 40 bucks for something that doesn't work and cannot be traded back....

 

[Ark]

09 and then 12.

Wonderful, thanks.

 

[MrCookiepants]

So... I'm guessing that my starter being lvl 26 and the rest of my pokemon around 20 before the second gym is a little too OP?

Might turn off EXP share.

I'm doing that gym now and you're not over leveled.

 

[TheMink]

I approve of this game

 

[suberzat]

i have a tough decision

Spoiler

get Charmander and have two fire pokemon or get Bulbasaur

 

[Uno Venova]

Seriously? That's pretty silly.

Yeah I just hope they tell people that, and it's not something people will miss out on.

 

[Antiwhippy]

I'm doing that gym now and you're not over leveled.

Alright, that's good to know. The second gym seems friggin far though. I just got the coastal dex and still haven't reached it.

 

[RionaaM]

Sorry for the late reply, guys. I went to sleep right after posting that.

Did you have to look at the status screen/battle to see it shiny or could you tell when you picked your starter?

I realized it during the battle. To be honest, I wasn't paying attention when I chose it (it was my 5th time starting the game, because I had traded the previous 4 starters with a fellow GAFfer -2 for him and 2 that he later gave me back on my final restart), but I don't recall noticing anything strange at first.

So yeah, I'm sure it doesn't show during selection, only on battles and looking at the party or Pokedex.

Thats def a shiny, did you have to engage in battle to notice its shiny first?

Yup, and the little icon on the menues is the regular one. You can imagine my surprise when the girl (whose name I forgot) asked me to fight, and out of my pokeball came a silver Fennekin that sparkled for a short while. This made my RTTP of Pokemon feel like a true and important event.

Lucky indeed...still soft resetting for chespin.

Hope you can get one soon! Is there an estimate of the chances of getting one?

 

[Kid Ska]

Kinda wish you could take your Roller Skates off.

 

[froliq]

No, I don't want to give you a tip. D:

GameFreak you crazy.

 

[Magnus]

Finally have it. Will play when I get home.

Exp share on for sure. Grinding is a senseless waste of time IMO.

 

[Uno Venova]

Does X/Y still have trainers that heal your pokemon in caves and in between cities?

 

[Helloween]

was it female litleo that people were after?

 

[MrCookiepants]

Alright, that's good to know. The second gym seems friggin far though. I just got the coastal dex and still haven't reached it.

Oh, I thought you'd reached it already. Yeah, you might be a little over leveled.

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

I know, does that mean

holding it upside down during battle?

 

[watershed]

Just use the d pad instead and you will run instead of skate.

It's a problem that usually appeared on digital version, but apparently the problem didn't persist on all people who used digital copies. If I'm not wrong, I've seen some people experiencing problem with their digital copies of SMT IV but not all. So maybe having a good constant internet connection and pick a god and pray would the best solution. Well, if it didn't work you could redownload it.

Yeah, I've been plugging my audiophile headphones in when I can. It's just I'm often on voice coms so I can't really have two pairs on.

 

[Regiruler]

Bloody hell, my brother pulled a X Y swap and now he's bitching that he wants X now.

Oh thanks!

No, you have to do that after the "Inkay leveled up" text, I'd guess.

 

[EdibleExplosives]

Send their Customer Services and e-mail and they'll refund the delivery charge no problem.

Yep, just did that. I'm not too fussed, I'm gonna be busy for a lot of this weekend anyway. I'm just getting sick of paying extra for next day delivery with Amazon, and them sending it with the Royal Mail. The funny thing is, I always get stuff the next day with First Class Royal Mail with any other website, but it always comes late with Amazon.

Oh well, got my money back so I can't really complain.

 

[Dunkelgrau]

So GAF, which one would you choose, left or right?

It's so similar to Viridian Forest so finding one really brought back memories.

 

[Neoriceisgood]

Obviously right.

 

[Mik317]

There is a long ass line at a gamestop in the ghetto.

Pokemon is universal confirmed

 

[Antiwhippy]

Kirlia has some goddamn adorable animations.

 

[DaBoss]

So GAF, which one would you choose, left or right?

Left obviously.
