Wait yeah, if there're no seasons, how're Deerling/Sawsbuck gonna work?

 

[Regiruler]

Anybody from the UK want to swap me a Virtual Console code for a Pokedex 3D Pro code, I got it free with the preorder but not really interested in it, PM if interested.

That reminds me: are they going to update the damn thing?

 

[CriterionDog]

Download Pokemon X in about 4 hours! I cannot wait! And so is my brother! He's getting Y! God, I haven't been this excited for a Pokemon game since Sapphire!! : D

 

[Bullza2o]

The wait is getting harder. It will only get worse when I start downloading it.

Anyways is there a list for Pokemon FCs? Mine's 5412-9913-4988
PM me so I can add you too!

Yeah there is a google docs list, just read the OP and it tells you how to get it.

 

[Neo Child]

popped by tesco on the way back

lots of pokemon y, one last pokemon x

snagged it. oh god such a good game cant believe its here

 

[-Horizon-]

I personally like the things in X a little better than Y. Do people on GAF generally like one more than the other? Haven't really been keeping up with it on here.

There was a list going around with TeamX, TeamY, or both. The last time I saw it, TeamX was leading.

 

[Keyouta]

I want to get a physical copy but I don't know if I'll be able to hold off once it's on the eshop!

 

[Flying Toaster]

Yeah on the doc that has everyone's selection and their friendcodes Team X is winning.

 

[-Horizon-]

Whoa what the heck am I reading? Seasons are confirmed to not be in the game?

If so, GameFreak you have failed me.

Yeah on the doc that has everyone's selection and their friendcodes Team X is winning.

As it rightly should

 

[Mik2121]

Just got my first medal and I'm fighting with just Chestpin and Pikachu.
Hope to get some neat pokemanz soon, because I don't think it's too safe to go around with these two guys (I'm putting all the normal pkmn inside the PC boxes, lol).

Oh and I have Pokemon X downloaded.

 

[Flying Toaster]

You can hold off... I know it is hard but what is a couple of hours more of waiting?

 

[Astral/H3X]

Yeah on the doc that has everyone's selection and their friendcodes Team X is winning.

More chances for me to get Mega stones for the X exclusive variety. I, however, will be holding stones of a can you say higher value.

 

[Tusk]

Wait yeah, if there're no seasons, how're Deerling/Sawsbuck gonna work?

Depending on the area you battle with them, I'm pretty sure.

 

[Galang]

A bit late, but added to spreadsheet. Friend code is 3351 - 4299 - 6706, please PM so I can add back! First time adding people to my 3DS.

 

[Bullza2o]

Yeah there is a google docs list, just read the OP and it tells you how to get it.

Oh I didn't notice that. I should have checked first, my bad.

I haven't seen anyone on my friend list playing Pokemon yet, so I'm not getting extremely jealous yet lol.

 

[Mik2121]

Oh and I have a question. I don't know if there's going to be any kind of DLC or updates or anything, but in case there is... I have a Japanese copy of the game but I'm playing in English. Will that affect those updates or whatever in any way, or I should be good to go?

 

[Darth_Caedus]

Does anyone know how long it takes to find Honedge and get a fossil?

 

[DaBoss]

Final starter evos haven't been revealed yet. Please remove the pics. Or just link to them saying it is final evo spoilers.

 

[Busaiku]

How can you not love

Spoiler

Chestnaught?

Cause it's hideous.
And

Spoiler

Chespin

is so adorable.

 

[Flying Toaster]

Cause it's hideous.

But oh so cool in a disturbing fat spiky way.

 

[Symphonic]

Went to Target, two Walmarts, and a Kmart. None of them even had them out.

Brb killing myself

Thats cause us Americans are law abiding citizens... actually I got nothing it does suck that the street date was not broken here in the states.

 

[Hot Coldman]

I love how varied the Pokemon selection in this is. Already got me a team of seven, and I'm not even at the second gym yet:

Spoiler

Frogadier, Combusken, Ivysaur, Pancham, Kadabra, Flabebe and Combee.

Not sure who to drop. I've also got

Spoiler

Butterfree, Spewpa and Pidgey

sat in the PC but I'm probably done with those.

Loving it so far.

 

[Mononoke]

Ah okay. That's very cool.

Yeah on the doc that has everyone's selection and their friendcodes Team X is winning.

Can anyone link me to this doc? Or is it being run by someone. Wondering if it's too late to add me to that list.

EDIT: Nvm, just saw it in the OP.

Question for you: can you switch languages as you go? I'd like to practice my language skills but don't want to be overwhelmed.

 

[Monado Blade]

Anybody manage to log into the Global Link website yet? http://3ds.pokemon-gl.com/

I tried with my account but it says that they're still processing my information. Can't wait to see what dumb minigames they have in store for us this time!

 

[LX_Theo]

Any bets that Z will be full 3d? Seems like they were time constrained for xy and couldn't get around to optimizing it enough.

Well, with only X and Y, they only have 2 dimensions. Its reasonable to have limitation now. When Z comes out, they'll have no excuses left.

 

[GianFrom1987]

can anyone tell me how the exp share work in this game?

Oh man I'm the opposite. Still in the forest and catching everything I find haha. Never did this in the old games.

 

[Mr-Joker]

That reminds me: are they going to update the damn thing?

Nah they will just make a new one and charge full price for that and maybe offer a discount if you own the original.

Does anyone know how long it takes to find Honedge and get a fossil?

Honedge is in route 6 which isn't that far into the game and I think the fossil are early game too.

 

[Hot Coldman]

can anyone tell me how the exp share work in this game?

It's a Key Item. Toggles between on or off, so you don't need to make anyone hold it.

It also kinda breaks the game, so maybe use it sparingly?

 

[Mik2121]

Question for you: can you switch languages as you go? I'd like to practice my language skills but don't want to be overwhelmed.

Nope. Once you choose a language you have to stick to it until the end unless you start a new game.

Oh man I'm the opposite. Still in the forest and catching everything I find haha. Never did this in the old games.

No, no! I'm also catching everything I find, I'm just not using them, lol. I remember every single time I played a Pokemon back many years ago I would just stick to my main until I found other Pokemon that I liked a lot. So I'm not even bothering this time putting others in my team, lol. I will put just unique type ones, not normals.

I'm just getting a blank page, unless this is something i'm supposed to access from a 3DS.

 

[Hero of Legend]

I notice folks are getting avatars Sylveon'ized, can I join in on the fun?

 

[Wilsongt]

Getting X on eShop today. Thank you based SMT x FE $30 deal. Then will get Y when I get off of my trip in a week.

Got the same notification. Will probably launch tomorrow.

 

[Acid08]

How many characters do they give you for your name?

 

[chickdigger802]

So when are y'all heading to the stores tonight?

Going around 11 or so I guess.

 

[Etzer]

A few more hours until I can download.

I'm really hyped for this. Even my brother, who hasn't played since Diamond and Pearl, pre-ordered a 2DS to play Pokémon Y.

Nope. Once you choose a language you have to stick to it until the end unless you start a new game.

Well, that's disappointing. I was hoping to switch between English and Spanish.

 

[Bsigg12]

What time does the eshop download go up?

 

[entremet]

Holy crap the Nintendo world store is packed!

 

[ffdgh]

How many characters do they give you for your name?

The new limit is 12 characters

 

[Acid08]

The new limit is 12 characters

AWESOME!!!! Thank you

 

[Kansoku]

What time does the eshop download go up?

Was going to ask that. Canada eshop.

 

[Styles]

Looks like they've upped the tediousness of acquiring the perfect nature starter this time around.

 

[gazele]

Don't know about Canada, but US is in 3 and 1/2 hours at 12 pm eastern

It get worse when you try and get your Kanto starter, luckily I got my modest Charmander after 3 resets.

 

[Oblivionmancer]

FUUUUUUUDGE should have just bought the 3DS today, how am I supposed to survive 16 more hours without Pokemon

 

[Bsigg12]

Don't know about Canada, but US is in 3 and 1/2 hours at 12 pm eastern

Awesome thank you!
