^ I'm hyped for Hyper Training because it means I'll be able to make my decade+ old monsters competitively viable (Morning Sun Scizor from XD among others)

Good OP, but you're missing that big-rear end effort post that dude made about how to transfer Pokemon up from previous generations. People ask about that poo poo like every 4 pages.

Can we ban the "subjective opinion presented as objective fact" meme from this thread? Thank you all for your cooperation.

e: why isn't there a word filter for "Cool and Good" yet?

The only shiny i ever encountered was a Graveler. Thankfully i had a damp Psyduck with me who i was levelling up, switched him and prevented a selfdestruct. I named him Bubba Klump and will hyper train him in beautiful Ahola

Hey thread, I'm re-playing XY right now and have a problem- I am raising a Murkrow and a Lampent but only have one dusk stone.

Don't you have an Eviolite by now? Just evolve whichever one you think looks cooler at its final stage (Chandelure)

Maybe you'll be able to summon the UBs like how the big kahuna Pokémon (or whatever they're called... Gumshoos, Fat Mac Raticate, et al.) can summon helpers. There's no way they'll let you capture humans. Unless they bring in some kind of XD-esque "purification" mechanic where you can turn them into actual Pokémon.

You don't use False Swipe to do damage :psyduck: it really shouldn't matter which attack stat it runs off.

Because I want to use my Butterfree for item finding AND catching.

So I hatched a shiny Adamant Trevenant and I'm having some difficulty figuring out how to EV him. Smogon recommends a banded set but it helps with Harvest rather than Natural Cure so I'd rather do something that gives him a berry preferably Sitrus or Lum I would guess since reusable. I guess I could do a trick room set but if it doesn't have a - speed nature would that make his speed to high to be usable in trick room?

Leech Seed, Will o Wisp, Shadow Force, Protect. Curse instead of WoW maybe

Getting back to real talk, I would absolutely adore if your Pokemon followed behind you again. That said it might cause some problems now that we've moved away from sprites into full models and something ATTEMPTING to approach real size parity.
