real shame that you can't change the names of traded pokemon, throws my theme of pop star names out of whack : (

i suppose it makes sense cos it gives you an incentive to catch them yourself, but for those that can't be caught it sucks. i wanted my kanto starters to be destiny's child!!
 
Me. I'm just doing things at my own pace.

I just reached Amberette last night because I've been goofing off (a.k.a catching Pokémon and whatnot). Two full boxes of no doubles. Team is kinda OP too, considering. 31, 29 X 2, 28 X 2, and 27. Just from trying to catch as many different ones as I can.

i suppose it makes sense cos it gives you an incentive to catch them yourself, but for those that can't be caught it sucks. i wanted my kanto starters to be destiny's child!!

I hope someone appreciates the Pikachus I sent out into the world Saturday night. Frank Zappa (my personal fav), Arch Enemy, Manowar, Baroness, Opeth...

That's why we have breeding.

I would totally use a Charmander one. As I'm not particularly attached to any of those Pokemon, I'll let someone else have 'em, but yeah those are pretty awesome!

Just found some time to play this after the launch. So awesome! Loving almost everything about it.

Its weird though, that I played for about 15 hours and still only fought one gym leader. lol Feels like I am doing something wrong. At least I don't remember it taking this long in the first games. It was ages ago though, so I may be wrong. >_>

Where do you get rock smash at?

After the first cave you visit, in that city that you reach by jumping those spiky rocks (forgot the name lol), I think you just need to talk with the first lady walking around the Pokémon Center there. She is just by the entrance.

Oh my. Your art is amazing Neorice! :drools:

By any chance do you have a Lightning (totally not Poke-related, I know :X) one ready or planned? I would love to use it if you ever do one. :D

Found it, thanks.
 
Wow; people are extremely generous on wonder trade. I go a Pancham, Honedge, and a Charmander. I'll breed Froakies and start giving them away to keep the karma rolling.

The one downside to using a team full of traded Pokemon right here. I wanted to get playful with names too. I've never named my Pokemon before.
 
I've gotten a Japanese Pikachu, Litleo and Ditto.

BTW, Ditto means I can breed Torchics and Bulbasaurs for y'all, as well as Froakies. So PM me (or Tweet me) if ya want anything.

Yea, this post-game content made X go from "Top 3 of the year" to probably GotY for me. That is no small feat in a year with FE: A and SMT 4.

In completely unrelated news, the first message I got walking around in the Friend Safari was "A wild
Growlithe
appears!", which was...much appreciated by me.

Thanks. I guess I should go beat the 2nd gym leader now.

You honestly don't even need to fight them yet if you don't want to for the stone.

He introduced himself and when he left to wait for me at the gym, I just walked away to get the Everstone in the next town.

My body is ready for pokemon and I'm leaving shortly to buy either X or Y. Is it cheaper than $39 anywhere and is there a definitive version since they were released?
 
Is there a region you noticed that gave out better ones, just curious.

Yes actually: All the good ones came from the Netherlands and Germany. Everyother countr failed if I remember correctly; The japanese seems to be only giving dross away for example.

When I saw how appearent the country of origin is; I went on wonder trade mostly to get crappy pokemon from around the world because my german Charmander's name was awesome, but he evolved into charmeleon :(

I am in North America.
 
Gardevoir being part Fairy is soo handy. She loses Dark/Bug weaknesses and gains Steel/Poison(LOL who uses those), and has immunity to Dragon. Psychic+Fairy is a pretty good combo too except for against Steel.
 
Holy shit Zangoose is tough to catch. They only appear in Seviper hordes and the Sevipers actively try and kill it. How can I defeat four Sevipers before they KO the Zangoose?
