So I've bred and am raising a Haunter, soon to be en route to Mega Gengardom. I just finished Super Training my Scizor and he's ready to go level up.

A sick part of me wants to pimp out a Slurpuff next. Name it Quina. Basically the same character, right?

When's the guide coming out? This stuff would be easier to plan out if I knew what the hell moves things get. I'm not leveling a Slurpuff until I see if it's like Haunter, where you can basically just evolve it to Gengar straight away and still get moves, or if it should be raised a bit beforehand. Can't be wastin' these evolution items, ya know?

Has anybody found that mysterious coupon? The clothes in Lumiose are so stylish but they cost so much!

It appears you have to do almost everything in the city before you get a discount.

The Looker post game content is pretty interesting. There's plenty of :smith: and :unsmith: moments in it.What is really interesting is that we now have our first instance of a Pokemon we have seen in the past dying (off screen of course.) Sure, Lysander killed himself with the super weapon, but he was a bad guy. In this case the Pokemon was just killed in a police action. It's also interesting that an E4 member was a member of Team Flare.

This is why you check your hatched Pokemon.



My new bro is a GTS acquisition. What did I give for this little guy? Yveltal? Xerneas? Mewtwo?

Nope. Eevee.

What a shame he's got dumpy stats.

It cannot be stated enough how bad not-Paris is to navigate. You cant even turn the dowsing machine on and walk around with the circle pad. You have to use the awkwardly placed d-pad to have a hope of getting around.

My brand new shiny Wartortle that I got from friend safari has "stats that just can't be beat" according to the IV guy and a +SpA nature. I might actually be able to use this shiny.

Apparently mons from the friend safari are guaranteed to have a couple of 31 IVs, so there's that. Too bad I only have one friend and my selection of mons is Krabby, Floatzel, and Azumarill. Blech.

That thing looks hella rad. Congrats.


I just evolved my Kirlia to Gardevoir and while non-lovely stats are nice and all, I'm sorely disappointed how boring it is in Amie. Kirlia used to dance and twirl all the time for me, Gardevoir just waves her arms around a bit.

I personally don't have any spare Frogadiers that were given to me. But if you hit up the Private Server Trade Thread, I'm sure you'll find someone who has been mass producing them.

Alternatively, my FC/IGN is 3368-1262-8650 / Akroma and you can try get one for yourself from the Safari. I also have Wartortle and Krabby

Thing I learned today: The grass you're in actually matters for finding Pokemon; I finally confirmed this for myself on Route 12 when I kept finding chatots and wingull hordes in the regular grass, when in the yellow flower grass you'd mostly find miltanks and mareep swarms. Time to level up an Ampharos :kimchi:

Do you want yours to be a special attacker? If so, Modest or Timid are the best Natures but you could also use Naive or something. If you want a mixed attacker, Naive is pretty much what you want, or the other one that raises Speed and lowers a defense whose name I can't remember off the top of my head.

I think part of the problem is that you have no idea where the other person is in the game. A lot of people have posted about accepting random fights and then going up against Mega Mewtwo, Xerneas/Yveltal etc

Boxes! How are you guys organized? I have a box for each type (two boxes for normal, grass, water and bug), a box for eggs, another for legendaries, a breeding box (where I dump parents), a whole box for Unown types and another for Vivillons. The rest are labelled "other" and it's where I leave trading fodder.

In one of the office buildings in Not-Paris there was a guy saying he was collecting the trash, which I assume was supposed to be a subtle "hey don't bother kid" thing, but I still checked most of them.

And there was nothing.
