Still don't completely understand O-Power. Are they a one time use or should I be using them often?

 

[GAMERG0D]

I got an Adamant Pancham with Scrappy at the Friend Safari... damn.

 

[KHlover]

anyone know how to get more hairstyles? I have the boutique unlocked already so I know I have enough style, but when I go to the salon I have the same 4 haircuts as ever.

Have you visited the Promo-Studio again? Talk to the lady at the right counter and all that extra stuff should be unlocked.

 

[bluepolicebox]

Beginner request: anyone have/can point me in the direction of information on putting together a varied team that can take on a mix of different types? It's one thing I keep stumbling over and I can't find the help I need.

 

[Moonlight]

Use that O-Power for Prize Money!

I... actually don't have that one yet. Which town does Mr. Bonding give that to you, anyways?

 

[GamerSoul]

Waaaait a minute. Can you ask for Pokémon you haven't seen yet on the GTS?

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

breeding is fucking annoying. i give up.

 

[FunkyMunkey]

So what's the consensus on end-game? I'm worried about there not being much to do :/.

I miss the extra 8 gyms or super elite 4 stuff... I'm on the fence about picking it up (only pokemon I've skipped is B/W2).

 

[pariah164]

Yep. There's an option at the bottom of the name list to type your own in.

 

[Ultimadrago]

Check the hotel in the second gym's town or the one right after that (which you don't need to beat the 2nd gym to get to). That's as far as I am, so it's one of those.

 

[RkOwnage]

You guys are talking about breeding/hatching hundreds of these Pokemon...are you seriously running around with that many eggs and taking all that time, or is there a quicker way to do so?

 

[Deified Data]

Can you trade me a baby version?

I have you added already, right? Did you want the Binacle or the Noibat?

Odd that you skipped b2 w2 if your main concern is postgame. cause the white treehollow/ black tower thing sounds like one of the cooler postgame dungeons (though i don't own it yet).

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

Modest Yanma or Sassy Onix for my Frogadier

 

[Spiritreaver]

What are you trying to achieve? Breeding goes better if you spend the extra time to do a little setup ahead of time. Like getting parents with the right nature/ability/IVs/moves.

Have a pokemon with Flame Body ability in the party to hatch 2x faster

Its not hard; just tedious.

 

[RkOwnage]

Cool, is it a passive thing or does it require something?

 

[Deified Data]

Just requires that the Pokemon be in your party.

 

[GamerSoul]

Yep. There's an option at the bottom of the name list to type your own in.

:0

explains why some people are already asking for cyndaquils heh.

 

[Shoyz]

Congrats! I'm jealous, I gave up after about 150 makes me think I should've kept going haha.

As far as odds go, shouldn't you get one after -2000- or so? I'm crossing my fingers while breeding for my Pokedex but I can't imagine breeding just for shinies.

 

[Azure J]

So can anyone tell me how Hard Mode Breeding (aka what IVs correspond to what element Hidden Power) works? I have a suicide mission to go on soon, namely breeding my based Protean Greninja for a Timid Protean Greninja that learns Hidden Power Fire.

 

[ramyeon]

Oh man. Togepi and Shinx are so damn cute in Amie.

As far as odds go, shouldn't you get one after -2000- or so? I'm crossing my fingers while breeding for my Pokedex but I can't imagine breeding just for shinies.

Around 1400 with the Masuda Method I think.

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

OMG YES Modest Yanma. One down, one more to go.

 

[takriel]

So Delphox, Sylveon and Doublade are a nice combination in battle. I won many battles with this formation. I might just build a whole team around them! Loving the new pokemon so far! Don't yet care about megas. But it's only a matter of time, I guess.

 

[Mr-Joker]

Is there any way to turn off the battle music? I don't like it very much.

Just turn the 3DS volume down.

 

[Trey]

Nidoking, I can't quit you. Your balanced but pedestrian stats, impressive move pool, not terrible typing. All these years and you're still a mainstay in my party.

 

[Seibmoz]

Does anyone know how to check your pokemon's friendship level?

 

[Nitsuj23]

Nidoking, I can't quit you. Your balanced but pedestrian stats, impressive move pool, not terrible typing. All these years and you're still a mainstay in my party.

I used to use him all the time as a kid. Is Nidoran in X or Y?

 

[FunkyMunkey]

That's what I've heard. I don't want to miss out again if that's the case here too haha.

 

[zewone]

WHERE DID YOU GET THIS

NPC in Kiloude.

Look at my little dude!

 

[Spiritreaver]

Prize money 3 while I'm farming E4 for EXP.... Thanks Ultimadrago.

 

[Kenturoxx]

anyone figure out the best post game grinding spot yet?

 

[pelicansurf]

I'm going to second that UltimaDrago is the (wo?)man!

 

[Roto13]

NPC in Kiloude.

Look at my little dude!

I want it noooowwww

 

[Aggrotek]

Eviolite Doublade is amazing.

 

[Deified Data]

Nidoking, I can't quit you. Your balanced but pedestrian stats, impressive move pool, not terrible typing. All these years and you're still a mainstay in my party.

In R/B/Y I usually abandoned my starter in the PC and made Nidoking the pillar of my party.

 

[Azure J]

I find it funny that Ultimadrago's been such a bro/broette/Drago with me talking Theorymon in here yet I haven't added him to my knowledge.

 

[GamerSoul]

I love Nidoking, I'm thinking of raising him too. Most of my team are my old favorites though. I gotta change it up.

 

[trixx]

Lol at german charizard name Glorak. I keep facing gloraks online, traded a bunch of haunters on wonder trade called mileycyrus enjoy

 

[Panzon]

Jaw fossil or sail fossil?

 

[Charlie0108]

Are Delphox, Quilladin and Frogadier only available as the "third" pokemon on Friend Safari?

 

[Aggrotek]

Jaw fossil or sail fossil?

Sharptooth or Longneck?

 

[Ultimadrago]

I find it funny that Ultimadrago's been such a bro/broette/Drago with me talking Theorymon in here yet I haven't added him to my knowledge.

Pm'd!

BW2 is probably the best in the whole series for postgame stuff IMO. Upgraded Elite 4, Black City/White TreeHollow, and the World Gym Leader/Elite Four/Champions Tournament. Lots of stuff to do with Kyurem, Reshiram and Zekrom too.

So far, seems like much less in X&Y. Main things for me to do are to breed and train a team before importing from White 2 in December. Probably my only fault with XY, along with poor framerate in battle sometimes.

 

[MasterShotgun]

OH. MY. GOD.

The Xerneas battle music is the most amazing thing ever. I just want to listen to the song over and over. I'm actually going to reset for a good nature just so I can hear it more.

 

[zewone]

Here's my team for completing the game:

Soul Silver, Heart Gold has most post game. I would argue that even Emerald and Leaf Green/Fire red and platinum have more to do

 

[Frogstep]

Did most of you evolve Doublade right away?

I waited til 51 when it learned sacred sword
