toastyToast, thanks so much for the trade! If you ever need any help with evolving a Pokemon, or fancy a friendly battle, hit me up.
Thanks again.
Will do, man. Enjoy that cute little bugger.
I've got another egg for anyone interested. I can hatch it for something halfway decent, got all the starters already. The egg is free though

Since your level is recalculated to 50 any modifiers (Nature, IV+EV) will be also.

Doesn't he need to be Lv55 to evolve?
Serebii says 50 and rain, I've heard different numbers from different people though.

Cause I remember the guys in the manga thread liking it back in the day;
I'm livestreaming my attempts at doing pixelart of all my pokemon so far:

Might as well link it for those who want to see
how the pokemon avatars I make actually get made. (working on Kangaskhan right now.)

Serebii says 55 in the New Evolution Methods page.
I don't think Goodra will lose out on any of Sliggoo's moves because there was no the change.
Awesome! That means I'm more than ready to kick my real-life rival's ass. >=]
Yup I will breed a whole batch of Fennekin's tomorrow. Caught a few Dittos so im ready for that.
Catching everything, Collecting Mega stones,Battle Tower, Building a nice team for doubles and singles randoms and Evolving everything. Stuff like that.
Weird it definitely says 50 on the page for Sliggoo. Oh well, I guess we'll see soon lol.
I evolved mines at 51 in natural rain aka no rain dancing.
I mean it's no complete Kanto region or anything but mannnnnnnnn fuck I'd kill for a complete other region

Finally got a Ditto. Now I probably won't play until Thursday because I have to do stuff.
Also, what town sells the incenses again?

Okay, guess I found the answer to my EV question
Was lucky enough to score a reset bag by randomly tapping the empty bag (what were the chances), so I immediately tested it on my lv22 Frogadier
Base stats were decreased INSTANTLY when I "completed" the bag. Not much - I had something like 45 EVs in Sp. Attack, and losing this decreased the stat from 48 to 46. Again, no need to deposit the pokemon, level it up or anything, it seems like the changes are immediate.
So it seems like EVs are just added on top of your base stats and do not affect level up stats at all. It's probably true that EV "stats" scale with your level, so while you might not see a big difference in the start, once the scaling picks up, your stats will go up more as well.
Also, Exp. Share IS giving EVs to all of your pokemons. It might be half, like the exp, but their "EV bar" is going up and the area is changing even if they are not participating in battles.
If you want my take on when to do the EV training - do a reset when you can do the lv3 training exercise comfortably and just grind it for a while, shouldn't take long if you use the bags you get from the training as well.

Shiny GTS hunt report here. Miltank for Honedge (I won't expect this up for long, would trade mine but its fully EV trained). Also two Nosepass for box legendry.
Secret Super training. Level 6 I think. To unlock secret super training, max out EVs on one Pokemon.

Are there no post game events in this game like Black and White 2 where you fought the Leaders of whatever at level ~80+?

Some people are trolling GTS already. I was just looking through Xerneas results and people want shit like Venusaur (level 20-30), Groudon and higher level Xerneas lol.

Thanks!
It's not scripted, no, but it has been a trend since Gen IV to have the cover legendary be easy to catch.
The stats I max out EVs for always increase by more with each level than other stats - it focuses your pokemon in those areas over others.Okay, guess I found the answer to my EV question

Little kids who don't understand the trading system involves 2 partners, lol.
You've got awhile to go. It's in the town just before the 7th gym, Dendemille Town.
Level 19 Eevee have Baby doll eye as part of their move set, if you run into a level 20 Eevee don't bother as Baby Doll eye will be replaced with Refresh.
When you to go GTS, go to options and turn off people looking for "special" Pokemon. You have to do this each search though.
YOU'RE WELCOME

Here's how it goes.
There are three meters: Affection, Fullness, and Entertainment.
Petting and feeding raises Affection. However, feeding stops raising affection when the mon is full, and petting stops raising affection when Entertainment is 0 (happens after every petting or "face" sessions). You know affection isn't raised when it shows a note rather than a heart.
Affection level goes up when your pet does a continuous heart shower after petting/feeding.
Entertainment is raised by walking with the Pokemon, using it in battle, or playing Amie games (which also stocks you Puffs).

Does nobody read the dialogue?

I took abreak to catch Pokemon and headed to the cafe when I was done and was expecting an event to happen but nothing did so I asked here and was directed to where I was so I went back and talked to the waiters triggering the event.
Look at it this way:
Base stats and IVs: Genetics - Base Stats determine the difference between different species. Under normal circumstances, it's impossible for an Onix to be faster than an Arcanine because their base speed stats are so different.
IVs express the variations within a species. The same way no two people are exactly the same, IVs serve as a unique identifier so an individual Primape might be slightly stronger or frailer than the next.
Natures: Personality - some people are just better suited to certain tasks due to their attitude; this is expressed in Pokémon by natures. By boosting one Stat by 10% at the expense of another, a Pokémon becomes more suited for certain roles.
EVs: Training - Want to have a fast Pokémon? Have it fight against fast Pokémon. Want a strong Pokémon? Have it fight against strong Pokémon. Want a tough Pokémon? You get the idea.

Ah, I see. Still, I've seen the same question asked a few times here. Just thought it was funny because I played that part earlier and was like "how many times are they gonna tell me".
I guess it might display the EV bonus in your level up screen, since the EV bonus is level based, so it may seem you are getting a bonus from the level up itself.

So what's everyone's Vivillon pattern? Mine is High Plains.
There are different patterns?
I have a question about breeding, I've never looked into it before. I want to use Tyrunt but the one I got has the nature I least wanted and I haven't saved for a ages so I couldn't reload, so I am thinking I will breed another. I don't have a ditto and I am not sure what to breed it with. Also how do I control which species the egg will hatch into, or is it just random?
