What kind of base stats does Auroros have? I really want to use it, but god it's defense types are terrible.

I can't give you base stats, but here are the stats of mine at level 79 (with a hasty nature and its EVs mostly in the special stats):

HP: 309
Attack: 163
Defence: 135
Sp. Attack: 198
Sp. Defence: 176
Speed: 144

Its a special sponge, which sucks because its typing means fighting and steel attacks murder it. You also get it just before the fighting gym, so it has to sit that one out. But stick with it (and give it leftovers) and it becomes a good wee special sweeper that can tank hits (that aren't fighting or steel type). It probably won't be getting into OU anytime soon though.

Um where'd you hear that? Because in the past week I've seen at least one hundred posts about already finding/hatching shinies in X/Y. If anything it was raised.

So is there a easy way to trade from Black and White to X and Y if you only have one 3DS ?

Also who else is getting both because they couldn't decide which one to get.:v:

I assume you just put the gen 5 cartridge in the 3DS, activate Pokemon Transfer when it comes out, send the pokemon to the Bank, and put them into your X/Y copy from there.

Pokemon bank is the only way you can generation transfer this time around, which only requires one 3ds. But you have to wait till December.

Also yeah I'm getting both because I'm weak and the store near here broke street date but Best Buy is refusing to give me my pre-bought copy.

There's no way for DS and 3DS games to interact so you're gonna have to wait til december when the Pokebank app rolls out. It has a transfer feature for Gen 5 games (Just dump a box at a time to the bank and then you can pull them down into X/Y). It's $5 a year but the first month is free so do all your transferring then if $5 is too much to have essentially unlimited storage that connects to multiple saves/copies of X/Y.

While not the question asked, I'm almost certain a 3DS can interact with a DS for any of the DS games. (So if you have a 3DS and DS you can trade with yourself for gen 4 & 5 )

I'm a game dev and I'm usually against armchair programming analysis, but what exactly about this seems so complicated? Just having a model follow behind you is pretty simple, ESPECIALLY since they decided to force a tile system instead of going full 3D movement.
I would imagine the battle models are higher-quality than the ones for the overworld, so you've doubled the number of models you need to store.

Zaphod42 posted:

I'm honestly surprised they didn't use the 3D jump as an excuse to reboot the series and pokemon count.
Have you seen the amount of bile that gets hurled at me whenever I suggest merely breaking connectivity between one generation and the next, Gen III-style? Outright removing Pokémon would be classed as a hate crime.

Yeah that's true but that's a DS game talking to a DS game. The issue with the X/Y stuff is it's a 3DS game talking to a DS game which, according to some, isn't gonna work without an intermediary, which is where the Pokemon Bank/Transporter comes into play.

Has it been confirmed that Sliggoo doesn't evolve into Goodra until level 70? There's nothing else that can be done?

I can confirm this is true. I currently use Calwitzer and had to do a double take when I took it to the move relearner.

I have a question, if anyone knows: is Noibat in Victory Road? I can't find one anywhere. I'm not sure if it's a regular encounter or a "surprise" encounter (it falls off the ceiling on top of you).

I don't think it's been "confirmed" but since no one has brought up evidence to the contrary I'm pretty sure it's just level 70. Plus it'd be out of place for the pseudolegendary to have an unusual evolution method.

It's a natural evolution of the feet, really. Scizor already had some pointy heels, in becoming more elegant and powerful its feet have become 100% heel.

Also screw type balance, Mega Scizor is on my team immediately.
