That's one of the downsides of this game. Only 70 new pokemon.

Mine egg that was from an Espurr and Skidoo(I put them in the day care thinking they couldn't have eggs) hatched.
And with exception of it's hp every stats of him is 6, so in honor of that I named it "baphomet son". -
@CCC:
It's kind of getting me down that there are only 70 new pokes…
I honestly can't find a good/interesting/worthwhile (and new) sixth team member that doesn't overlap with something I already have (Greninja, Pyroar, Tyrantrum, Hawlucha, Doublade).
There's a crazy lack of electric and poison (don't like Heliowhatever and the seahorse is super frail). And that giant iceberg fuck is way too slow for me to even consider.Not sure what to do. Really don't want to use the legendary :P
Could go with Trevenant I guess....inb4 goat.
Try a fairy type. Sylveon is great. You need to put a little effort in PokeMonAmi to get it though.
-
I finally bred a modest Abra after filling almost 2 boxes of them. If anyone wants an Abra or Pancham with a specific nature, I might have one. I also have quite a few caught, not bred, Honedges, Zubats and Meditites.
Meanwhile, the first two Meditites I caught were both Adamant. Mega Medicham is going to be such a great physical sweeper.Also, I don't mind the low new pokemon count at all. Too many Pokemon is a massive downer for people who just got into the game.
-
Overlaping is cool! In GenV I had to try my best to not have, like, 4 bugs in my team, but I still ended up with one grass, one bug and one bug/grass. I mean, it's not like the game is that hard, you can afford repeating some types.
Anyways, sad that there is only one save slot. I was hoping to play my with my cousin's game once he finished it, but I doubt he would be ok with me erasing his save state.
But talking about what really matters, it seems there are some rumours of altered base stats in these games. Serebii is looking at it, but I really hope this becomes true to some useless pokémon.

Yeah. Fairy coverage would be great, admittedly… I just hate eeveelutions. They're really boring :P

lol I just got a Sliggoo in the "wondertrade" with its hidden ability from Japan^^ So what should I do with it?
Keep it and train it, or trade it and catch me a Goomy? Or should I bread a Goomy? Is there a posibility, that the baby Goomy will have the hidden Ability too?Females have a high chance (guaranteed?) of passing the hidden ability, and new to this gen, males have some chance of passing it.
What IS the ability, anyway?
@CCC:

That's one of the downsides of this game. Only 70 new pokemon.
Plus 25 or so Megas. And unreleased legendaries. It's about 100 monsters total, the same as gen 2 or 4. (Gen 4 had 18 evolutions of old things and a dozen legendaries out of its 100 monsters, so it was only about 70 new things up front too)
Yes… once it narrow it down from families its basically only 32 new monsters, but its still enough to be fresh among everything else.
Except the rabbit. The rabbit sucks. I refuse to use it. It looks awful in its first form and somehow manages to be way worse in its second.
On the other hand, we're now at like, 730 monsters. To keep exploding the count every couple years is getting to be a bit much. I know a couple people for who this is a new game, an the 450 monsters is still overwhelming... even older things like Hairayama are totally new to them. (And adding fairy type has made some old things practically new again. I always wanted to use Mawhile and Marril... and now I have an excuse!) ANd since SO many things are scattered about... its easy to forget that not everyone has played every gen... and the games are aimed at kids.
The third generation games haven't been playable in TWO handheld systems lifespans!

So remember the backpacker everyone thought was talking about Hoenn? If you talk to him more it seems he reveals that he isn't talking about hoenn, or kanto… or johto... or sinnoh.... or unova. In other words, he's hinting at another entirely new region. Seems way too early for that IMO unless they incorporate a new second region into pokemon z or whatever the upgraded version might be

Can someone explain what the fuck was the point of the haunted shack in the middle of route 14.
-
Also magikarp's pokedex entry is hilarious

@CCC:

Try Spritzee then. It's the Y version's exclusive.
If you have X I can get you one and trade it with you.@Cyan:

That awkward moment when your Pokemon don't reconise you smiling

Cool, one of my recently registered friend safari's give wartortles. Too bad I started with Squirtle

This here is great advice. F*cling love Spritzee, my favorite this gen. Haven't evolved it and yet it's the reliable backbone of my team. Enemy is killing my pokes? Send Spritzee, wall a couple hits to set up calm mind, then sweep. And with Draining Kiss giving back 75% of the damage given, you even leave unscathed.
Tiny flamingo head here has saved my team so many times it's absurd. Even more absurd when you consider the team has powerhouses like gogoat. -

He could be talking about Orr

Anyone know when the fletching line learns some decent attacks? He just evolved to Talonflame and still is using Peck and ember!
-
Speaking of, there's no limit to how much you can do Pokemon-Amie at a time, is there? Like, the Pokemon won't get annoyed at you for playing with it or rubbing it too much?
….............Goddammit Pokemon, why must you sound so dirty?
Not really, no. It gets full so you can only feed it so many Poke-puffs, but playing games uses up energy which drops it's fullness.
Just do what I did: Every now and then switch it out for one of your other pokes, play with them for a little bit, switch back in and play, rinse and repeat until Poof! Five hearts!
That awkward moment when your Pokemon don't reconise you smiling
Dear god tell me about it. "I'm winking! I'M WINKING!!!!!!!"
-
He could be talking about Orr
Except he also gives you an item that is said to depict a guardian pokemon from his region. I've seen screenshots of said item and it doesn't look like any pokemon I've seen before

You sure it doesn't look like Miror B.?

@Capt:

He learns Flame Charge with 39, which is decent. You can teach him Fly as soon as you get it. Then there is Steel Wing, Brave Bird and Flare Blitz, but he doesn't learn these until Level 60+.

This is the first time I've ever completed the game with a team of 5. And honestly, it didn't matter. I didn't lose a single god damn battle.
Trying to catch Mewtwo equipt with 21 pokeballs, 1 premier, 1 ultra, 4 repeat and 2 luxury
yahoo.I just caught it, getting odd stares on the bus when I yelled out "Yes!"

You can smack your Pokemon in amie!?
The hell Nintendo? I was just trying to pet Skiddo, not smack him!
-
I didn't even know amie (and super training? the hell?) existed until today, when I saw some of my friends playing. Might have to try them out.
Also….some of you have cool trainer outfits! I'm jealous.

-

There's really no reason not to do super training immediately with anything you intend to use in the long haul/competitively. For someone as neurotic (borderline OCD? nah. wouldn't go that far) as me, it was actually kind of annoying because whenever I got something new, I HAD to spend the next hour and a half super training it (before even fighting a single battle and giving it unnecessary EVs).
On the other hand, I can't wait to import my original R/S, D/P/P, Heart Gold, and B/W teams to super train them and make them perfect after so many years… :D

Oh yeah, how can scientists from the pokemon world know the gender of a possesed sword and key holder (seriously how do they know if a sword is male or female) but even after 6 generations and we still don't know diglett's feets are.
-
Everyone who has tried to see digglet's feet has dissapeared.
-
…Fletchling gains a fire typing when it evolves? I....didn't expect that.
-

Diglett's are actually 4th dimensional beings and what we are seeing is it's 3rd dimensional shadow.

Does Goodra learn any moves between level 50 and 54? Ive been training Sliggoo too long :/
-
Friend is going on about how Mega Mawile is pretty ugly.
Really look like it is with Sucker Punch too.
-
Got a Charmander and a Zorua from Wonder Trade. Finafuckingly.
-
…Fletchling gains a fire typing when it evolves? I....didn't expect that.
I think I knew that in advance it evolved to fire/flying, and managed to forget it over the months. And so I was raising mine… and it evolved on the battle with the professor that gives you the second set of starters. ANd I knew that was coming because the friend I'm playing with was a couple minutes ahead of me, so I was starting to choose... I wasn't going to use bulbasaur cause I already had grass starter... and I was really considering charizard because the flying is useful.
Then BAM, on that very fight, right before making the decision, the bird becomes fire/flying, and my choice is made. (Squirtle obviously).
I shortly after renamed the bird Charizard, and he's been awesome since, pretty much my lead.

YOU'RE WELCOME
Mine egg that was from an Espurr and Skidoo(I put them in the day care thinking they couldn't have eggs) hatched.
And with exception of it's hp every stats of him is 6, so in honor of that I named it "baphomet son".Your goat is blessed. You must raise it to be the conqueror of worlds.
-
Finished for the day, have a:
lvl 41 Greninja
lvl 40 Gengar w/ Megastone
lvl 40 Roserade
lvl 39 Pangoro
lvl 39 Charizard w/ Megastone X
lvl 39 Miltank
lvl 38 Malamar
lvl 38 Exeggcuter
lvl 38 Tyrunt
lvl 38 Gabite
lvl 38 Doublade
lvl unknown Snorlax (daycare; was 29)
lvl unknown Pidgetto (daycare; was 25)Beat 6th Gym too, so…yeah.
-
@Robby: Glad to hear the final evo is useful, but I picked Charmander without knowing Fletchling would gain a fire typing. So potentially I'll have TWO fire/flying types….which, since I'm raising more than 6, isn't bad....but...hm.
-
Hey, does anybody want the alternate forms of vivillion on their Pokedex? I can offer them for free. You just have to return them to me so i can keep spreading them. Currently i have like 9 models i think. Just give me a shout in here.
Wow, i just got a shiny exeggcute by wonder trade. Cool.

I hope I cut myself shaving tomorrow
I hope it bleeds all day longThey say that it's darkest before the sun rises
But I'm pretty sure they're all wrongI hope it stays dark forever
I hope the worst isn't over -
So, today I will officially join the fray (thanks to belated birthday gifts). My Friend Code is in my sig, so feel free to add me to the list on the first page and I'll start adding people after I play for a bit.
I'll be playing Y, by the way…
-
adding you mugen

Aparently my first Ditto has perfect defense IV (31).
Just today I read a guide of all the things "breed your monsters silly with the power items to get three perfect stats in just 3 generations and 40 poor forgotten monsters"
I don't have the patience to breed the things that much.
I'd love if at least you could ignore the steeps to fuck and the steeps to hatch someway.

So this gens daycare man is an ass. All the previous ones would call you out as you passed by f there was an egg. This one just stays silent. Lame.
At least the road in front of the center is a nice loooong stretch to bike up and down, just like the daycare centers always have.
Oh yeah, how can scientists from the pokemon world know the gender of a possesed sword and key holder (seriously how do they know if a sword is male or female) but even after 6 generations and we still don't know diglett's feets are.
Same way they have no idea how eggs are created or why they happen to have the species or moveset of creatures you happened to put in there.

Alright, I'm done for the evening. Currently in Cyllage City, about to face the gym.
Team still stands at 3 pokemon:

I don't recall ever being called out to in Pearl when there was an egg waiting for me; I used the Poketch app to let me know when one popped up. You mean there's no more Poketch-like app to let you know when your Pokemon have bred? That sucks! Is the Pokeradar still around, at least?
