Okay so lovely situation here. I gat the physical cart of Y and I pop it into the 3DS and it has the logo pop up and then I get this loving message that says "The SD card couldn't be recognized, please end the game an start again." I have tried ending the game and I checked the cart and there is no damage to it as far as I can tell, and my DS works fine because I just played Fire Emblem. so can anyone tell me what the hell.

Okay did they increase the encounter rate for female Combee, because I have found more females than males. I'm now just catching them then wonder trading them.

I know it's been stated before but Wonder Trade is probably the most amazing thing done this gen, aside from making breeding easier. I just got a RockHead Adamant Aerodactyl with perfect attack and speed IVs, above average IVs for the rest. Why would you trade that away? At least I traded him an Adaptability Eevee really good IVs all around so I don't feel like a dick.

Pijeus posted:Apologies if this has already been posted - I want to get another 3ds xl so I can get X and do trades with myself, if I get a US 3DS ( and a few games that aren't coming out here for ages) will I be ables to do local trades? i could just trade via the thread in here but it feels like a pain in the bum to get sorted. I'm 99% certain that you can do exactly that. Also it's not that hard to get what you're looking for in the trading thread, most people are happy to give you whatever or just help you trade back and forth for trade evos.

I am Reverend posted:The one I've been running on Showdown is Play Rough / Sucker Punch / Swords Dance / Brick Break, Adamant nature and 252 HP 252 Attack. I had Iron Head on it over Swords Dance for a while but it doesn't really hit anything the other moves can't. Brick Break is pretty much only on there so steels don't laugh at you. LAY-ZX posted:Iron Head, Play Rough, Sucker Punch, and Swords Dance. I'm not sure Swords Dance is even necessary though, because really the only thing I can think of that none of the three attacks can OHKO is another Mega Mawile.

Lizard Wizard posted:I think it's just safe to say that IVs are complicated and maybe kind of bullshit at this point. If you still think IVs are complicated after this gen then I don't know what to tell you. They were not ever really that complicated, just time consuming because you didn't really have a reliable way to pass them down. Now with the Destiny Knot its so easy.

EGSunBro posted:You ruined the setup that was essentially his entire strategy. Without that setup he figured he stood no chance and just left to go for other turn 2 deciders. Thanks, I don't get that kind of team setup. Why would you hinge everything on something so easily nullified. Does anybody have any good replacement ideas for Rotom-W, he really doesn't pull his weight but I need someone to off set the Dark weakness I have and I can't think of anything better. My main concern is Hydreigon and Greninja who are too fast for or bulky for Aegislash or Chandelure. I was thinking Scizor but that compounds my Fire weakness and I'm not really a fan to start with. I'd really appreciate any advice.

http://pokemonshowdown.com/replay/ou-72781031 And here we see someone who doesn't know what Magic Bounce is. I could understand not knowing that Xatu had MB but the fact that I just threw status after status back at him should have been a good indicator. Also I don't know why he was using Pignite... I assumed some kind of gimmick.

The only way that's possible is if it was boosted or scarfed because even max speed positive nature Haxorous will be out sped by a Gengar that has timid and max speed EVs. The sleep thing is real, the RNG hates you and your team.
