It's not. Mine had 2/5 Affection when it evolved.

Pretty sure it's max happiness + fairy type move + level up.
I got a Japanese Eevee really early on thanks to a lucky Wonder Trade and that was the method that worked for me.

Bah. Happiness, I forgot.

Fighting IS super effective against Rock, I thought.

Steel, Normal, Ice...

Fighting is super effective against Rock.

By the way, everyone here noticed that the forest is basically a re-imagining of Viridian Forest, right? Dem nostalgia hooks.

The game has a lot of throw back to gen 1 but it does well so that the Kalos region can stand on it two feet without becoming a Kanto 2.0.

Miracle Trading is such a great feature. And I feel like it really came out of nowhere. Like, who expected anything like that?

Are Abras ultra rare in X? I'm running around Route 5 and I haven't seen a single one.

They're rare in both versions. I spent over half an hour trying to get mine. Most annoying thing is they teleport away in the first turn :/

No power ups so far, so here goes nothing. Ultra Ball with full HP, lets go.


WHOOO CRITICAL CATCH, ONE SHAKE AND SNAP!

They had this feature for eggs in Gen V (or IV? or both.) and I thought it was a great feature that was unfortunately limited to local. Glad they expanded it to online and at a touch of a button!

really? I ran into literally like 10 in a row...made for some excellent early training as they gave a good amount of exp even manage to find on both my X and Y

Did you find 1 already and have it in front? Pikachu's Static ability attracts electric types, therefore more Pikachu. I used this to catch more Pikachu so I could get a Light Ball.

Anybody know how to evolve pancham yet??

Should be Lv35, and if the rumors were confirmed (can't recall), with a dark type in party.

Caved in and got X. The presentation upgrade from B/W is fantastic; there's so many little things they got right. Only gripe is that there's no way to play battle animations quickly instead of just turning them off - that'd be a perfect medium for me.

Rolling with Chespin.

The worst thing about all these new pokemon is that I can't identify types at a glance.

Just got rekt by the second gym leader cos I didn't know his pokemon type was rock/dark :(

Hey guys, if anyone hasn't been added by me feel free to PM me your friend code and I will add you straight back :) I want to fill out my friends list for this!

Any info on the EV training and such yet? I've only played a few hours so far but still. I have two peeves so far: 1) Roller blades feel too fast and jumpy, I know you can hold you analog slightly to go slower but who has the time! 2) Moving around the main city with the erratic camera really messes me up, I constantly run into shops trying to read signs. I got told to go to a cafe but couldn't find it :L

am I crazy for doing super training til my EV's are maxed so I don't waste them on feild pokemon since I actually want to use Greninja?
 

BatDan

Bane? Get them on board, I'll call it in.
After a while, I finally found an Abra. Managed to get a critical catch on it with a Quick Ball. Weight has been lifted.
 
The trainer art is so detailed and pretty.

Pokemon breeder female is waifu material. She's practically inviting you with that arm position.
