Don't know what's more of the 'Oh. Okay' feeling.
Getting a shiny through an event or friend means, or getting a shiny in the wild, catching it, and then it disappears randomly. -
I hate those shop distributions.
Why not all via Wi-Fi?No chance of getting it. That's why I couldn't get Meloetta as well …:/

Why not all via Wi-Fi?Because the shops have some sort of deal with Nintendo. Presumably money is involved.
Any give-aways needed to unlock story events though are always given on wi-fi.

I like a lot of the Mega Evolutions, but I'm not sure I like the idea of Mega Evolution itself. Mainly I'm concerned that it'll make some Pokemon God Tier, especially Pokemon like Lucario who are already very powerful. Or at the very least, give it only to Pokemon who actually need the boost.
P.S. By "God Tier" I wasn't referring to the metagame tiers; I just meant that they would seem indestructible 99% of the time.

On the subject of Shinie's only legit Shiny I ever caught was a Chatot in Platinum anything else I got was via AR which I can't use for Black or White anymore.

There's a balancing agent. For one thing, only one monster in a team can do it, we know for sure.
Plus who knows whatever other circumstances are involved around it. It might only last 3 turns, or take a turn to do. Getting them in the first place might be a super involved process, or it might take time to recharge. Plus since it changes abilities and in some cases typings, it can open them up to things if its expected. There will be weaknesses and balances.
-
Actually, it's already 100% confirmed that it doesn't take a turn to activate and that it lasts until the end of the battle (with no way to cancel it once it's activated)

i was wondering, how many people here have tried pokemon hard mode a.k.a. the nuzlocke challenge? I got bored and thought i'd get into the pokemon spirit so i started playing it on blue as i'd never done it before. I decided to name all my pokemon after one piece characters.
So far i'm up to vermillion city and i have:
Lvl 22 Wartortle : Franky
Lvl 22 Pidgeotto : Nico robin
Lvl 17 Butterfree : Usopp
Lvl 18 Zubat : Moriah
Lvl 15 Bellsprout : Zoro
Lvl 12 Sandshrew : Crocodile
Lvl 14 Meowth : Nami
Lvl 14 Rattata : Helmeppo
Lvl 10 Spearow : TashigiI also had a Lvl 15 Rattata called Coby but sadly i lost him :'(

Picked up a cheap copy of Pokemon White because I actually skipped that Generation, and if I'm going to take part in the next one, it might be nice to be up to speed. Though it's also been a massive temptation while I've been depressed so I'm restricting my access to it. Still picked up a shiny dialga on the way back home this morning because I may as well. It's not anything like a self-found shiny though…I had a few of those on Pearl, though mostly through using the Radar. I did once come across a shiny Krikitune when playing waiting for a train at Lübeck Hbf in Germany, and given I was drunk on mixed fruit mulled wine at that point, I proceeded to announce it to the rest of the platform. It added to the experience. Shinyface became my HM slave XD
-
I'm gonna save up so I can afford the game on release day.
I'll either try and convince someone to lemme go to a midnight release, pre-order so then I might get it like Animal Crossing (a day early fuck yeah) or just try and compel someone to lemme go and get it XD hoping it's not a university day though cause I wanna play the shit out of it so hard.
Then again I did finish Pokemon Emerald in a week.
And Professor Layton in one day. -
I'd need to get a 3DS, which is the financial snag in this otherwise promising plan. Maybe if I manage to get another job by then.
I'm still using a DS Lite >_>
-
I pre-order both games and i'll get however the one that my little brother doesn't want.(is his late birthday present from me).
(have to take advantage now that i have a job). -
I should probably prepurchase it soon. I just still dont know which one to get.

Years of maths classes taught me to become very good at finding X.

[qimg]http://abload.de/img/1377991696222rssiz.gif[/qimg]The hero can actually step over ledges 6 inches off the ground? FINALLY!
Shame its probably just the goat that's rideable, and only in certain areas…. (or late in the game after you've already had to take the long path around everything...)
-
@RobbyBevard:

I see absolutely no problem with this.

I recall something about people mentioning Rhyhorn is rideable as well. So there'll probably be others.
Watch it be an hm though.
-
I see absolutely no reason why you would ride a Rhyhorn.
-
Yes we have seen videos of Ryhorn being ridable, apparently it works as a strenght/rock smash pokemon even if you are riding it but I'm not sure this extras are confirmed but yes we ride them in rocky areas.
-

The question is, can you ride on a Rhydon?
-
Screw Rhyhorn…

I know it needs an item to do it too, but is it a one time use item?

I'd be more surprised if we can jump ledges from the opposite side.

That's what the goat was doing.

Guessing I've gotten too comfortable with the usual inability to do that have noticed it.

We wouldn't be all "YAY! jumping ledges" if it was the same thing we already did :D.

^ I thought Robby was being sarcastic.

^ I thought Robby was being sarcastic.
I was, but not the way you're thinking.
The sarcasm is towards the games always being stupid for the last 15 years about the hero not being able to pass blatantly short tiny half step ledges (That on the return trip he has no trouble jumping down.)
Finally being able to skip past that nonsense is legitly cool, regardless of how limited and late it is likely to be.
-
I'm still disappointed by the fact that the Acro Bike could only do that when small stones were present and curiously arranged in lines as straight as an arrow.

I'm going to miss only having 4 directions to move in.

-
