[HawthorneKitty]

Checking for your Legendarie's Nature takes an immense amount of time; settled for a bad nature.
Yay me.

 

[nintendoman58]

Good lord at what Pokémon Amie can do. I finally got my hands on an Eevee, and after an hour of minigames, petting, and feeding later, it suddenly is my best friend and it evolves into Sylveon. But now it's getting critical hits left and right apparently because of the massive affection.

Is this permanent? This seems waayyy to good to be true.

 

[Busaiku]

How do I get Rustling Grass in Route 6?
I've been running on safe ground for a while now, and it seems like the grass is too tall anyways.

 

[Alcotholic]

So quick questions, if I never played any previous games in the series will I enjoy this? And secondly, is the consensus that the game is really well made and fun?

it's Nintendo. You're guaranteed a quality experience.
if you're into jrpgs with grinding and a collectathon, this is prime stuff. Plus meta-gaming this shit can get really deep.

also the creatures are adorable as fuck.

 

[Beast Legacy]

Headed to a birthday party... and not at all happy about it. I want to play Pokemon.

You're telling me. I've had it (my X copy) since Thursday evening but haven't been able to play too much. Busy weekend.

Finally got started tonight though. Friend code is 1736-0566-3303, PM me if added so I can add you back. Mostly going to be on my Y copy gotten from midnight launch and leave X for after I get to Y's endgame.

 

[ryan-ts]

How many badges do I need before I can get Goomy?

 

[Save 'N Quit]

Beat the first gym, walked towards the grass on the right of the city, and immediately caught myself a Riolu.

I'm so ecstatic right now.

 

[GamerSoul]

Can't decide between Pidgey and Fletchling so I'm raising both right now ._.

 

[AzVal]

is there only one chance for the Mega charizard X item? i am about to choose the Gen I starter, was going to get Bulbasaur as Combusken is my fire type, but then remembered that the Mega ChariXard is a version exclusive.
should I balance my team with a grass I dont have or take the exlusive Pokemon of the type I already have covered?

my game is halted until I decide. Help me decide GaF

I'm gonna have a Delphox and Charizard on my team, fuck yeah ChariXard.

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

Why are all the tourists Japanese.

There's a legit medical condition called "Paris Syndrome" that effects Japanese people, look it up, basically Japan LOVES Paris or something.

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

But I got a Snorlax! And a Japanese Caterpie!

luck you!!! snorlax that is..

how so? I haven't used it yet so what's wrong with it?

random bunnlby over and over lol

Yeah I'm kinda in the same boat. I feel like I need to stop progress until I get your same question answered and my question about exp share answered.

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

What's supposed to be in the circle of light in Reflection Cave?
It's 8:38pm PST so it can't be a Mega Stone unless it only shows up post E4.
Edit: Postgame Alakazamite found here

 

[KLonso]

For anyone who's done super training, does it notify you when you've maxed out the EVs for a particular stat, or should I still keep track of them?

 

[jelmerjt]

Hi guys,

Should I keep this Froakie? Female, Hasty, Often lost in thought.

 

[DracoBlade]

Does anyone know where/if I can catch a Dratini in Y version?

 

[_woLf]

My Froakies characteristic is highly persistent, nature is naive. Is that okay? It's a female so kinda dont wanna reset....

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

For anyone who's done super training, does it notify you when you've maxed out the EVs for a particular stat, or should I still keep track of them?

Yes it tells you it can't be raised anymore. You can still do the mini game but won't get any EVs.

 

[Teknoman]

Game Chat = Voice chat?

 

[Elfforkusu]

You guys... aren't helping me resist buying this game.

 

[Trey]

For breeders, would you say it's easier to simply breed for a nature rather than soft resetting for a wild Pokemon's nature? I'm trying to get an Adamant Honedge, but it's already rare in this area and I don't know how long I'll be here...

Gotta catch an adamant something at some point, so you may as well do it now!

 

[Regiruler]

Wonder trade is bad.... BAD!!!

Don't put anything of significant value on it. It's meant to just increase exposure and gain acquaintances.

Hi guys,

Should I keep this Froakie? Female, Hasty, Often lost in thought.

You're EVs will be fucked up in the story playthrough (I know there is a bag that resets them but I have yet to find one). As long as it's female you should be able to breed more.

 

[ramyeon]

I'm a huge newbie to this whole EV training thing. What should I be training my Chespin in? Can anybody give me some suggestions?

Anyone have any ideas?

 

[Kave_Man]

I had to put the game down now. Found a honedge and then got snorlax, I'm overstimulated right now.

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

Music is hit and miss this time around. WIld Pokemon theme and Trainer Battle theme are very average imo.

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

Anyone have any ideas?

Attack Defense or HP.

 

[Mik317]

why is the Bike theme so gdlk?

 

[Busaiku]

For anyone who's done super training, does it notify you when you've maxed out the EVs for a particular stat, or should I still keep track of them?

For the record, you do not want max EVs for any stat.
You want 252.

 

[afoni]

Done with my first day of play and I'm slightly ashamed of the time I've managed to spend on the game in a single day.

 

[ramyeon]

Attack Defense or HP.

Just regular attack not sp. attack?

 

[Hattori]

what are the advantages of using a reset bag? When should I use it?

 

[afoni]

Just regular attack not sp. attack?

Yeah, just regular. Considering Chespin's eventual typing, special attack would be pointless.

 

[yami4ct]

Want a double check, is it possible for the Kanto starters to be female? It's a long reset to get them, and I haven't seen a female yet. Also, are the ones he uses against you the ones you get? So, if he doesn't use a female version of what you want, are you free to reset?

 

[niunhuiio]

Is the music good in this game? I preordered X a long time ago and got it today but I don't have any headphones for my 3DS and I refuse to play X without them. I know I'm nuts.

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

For the record, you do not want max EVs for any stat.

I think it stops you at 252 because after maxing out both my Amaura's SpA and HP I gave it Speed Bag L which normally gives 12, it gave me 6.

 

[Squall516]

so wuts the best natures for the starters? I think my Fennekin is sassy (i know thats pretty bad but it was a female so i just kept it prob could get a diff one if i restart again) my chespin i think is impish and my froakie is hasty. Is that any good. I was also thinking of trying to grind and SRing to get a shiny froakie but you think it would be easier to just breed one?

 

[Dr. Feel Good]

another call out for Plusle?? Anyone?

 

[Inferno313]

Yes it's quite good, but yes you are also nuts.

 

[Jintor]

Better to focus on making specialties even better or shoring up shortcomings?

Have 6 Pokemon before fighting him, and he can hold onto it, allowing you to soft reset. And yes they can be female/shiny.

 

[chronos4590]

Should i let my Farokie Evolve yet? He was starting to but i stopped it. I wanna enjoy my little frog a bit longer ;_;

 

[Anura]

Specialties. Always.

 

[DeVeAn]

So, only 69 pokemon this time around? Gotta say, its noticeable. I seen and have most of these pokemon stacked across previous games. Don't feel like catching the same ones again ESPECIALLY since I plan to transfer them over in Dec.

 

[Lenz44]

I've been really enjoying this game so far. My friend code is 2809-8640-3222- send me a PM if you add me and I will add ya right back. Just got a 3DS so I'm hoping to get some Gafers to fill my friends list.

 

[Moxx19]

DAT BIKE THEME

 

[yami4ct]

Wait, really? It just asked me to send one to the PC. Can I just cancel out of it?

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

Just regular attack not sp. attack?

I don't think Chestnaught has high SpA base stat to begin with. I could be wrong though.
