I got mine from GAME, they had it sent like 5 hours before it was on the store so I'd imagine they just send them straight out now. :)

Wonder traded a dunsparce for a zubat.
Then the zubat for a psyduck and now a flabebe. This is only going downhill.

Is he being passive-aggressive?

Possibly, but you level up the O-powers by using them a bunch. If you have people on your friends list playing, you might as well throw them an O-power once in a while. Sure, you can use it on yourself, but that takes more energy.

I got the lovely fire one after that. Fuckin' wonder trade is the best feature. Anyone farther along in the game actually get good returns from it?

How do I add people to friends in this one?

I heard something about being able to reset EVs with Super Training - how do you do that?

And what exactly should I be doing with EV training? I assume with someone like Fennekin/Delphox you'd want Sp. Atk and Speed Evs?

Did I gently caress up by getting my Charmander in Y instead of X, or will there be a way to get the evolution stones needed without needing to get to the point when I select my Kanto starter, trading it and Chespin to Y, then starting X over again?

Occasionally you'll get an item called a reset bag to drop and that'll do it.

I think it may be over capacity or something, it was working this morning but as more people get it and start connecting I reckon it's causing quite the strain.

You can get items? I've been nonstop wonder trading because it's addictive, I didn't know I could actually get something good out of it. Save my level 37 gourgiest, which I think is giant.

All comedy is derived from fear.
I literally just got a shiny Woobat from the Wonder Trade.

Guys, this game is :krad:. I'm having an inordinately large amount of fun playing with Wonder Trade and the random strangers you can give O-Power to (why did Nintendo not realize how dirty that sounds?). I got a female Chespin with a nice nature without having to reset the game once, and with the EXP share it is super easy to pick up a pokemon and play with it for a few levels.

Also, is it just me or does saving your game happen a LOT quicker this time around?

Yeah, pokemiles or something like that. You can trade those in for items. I've not looked too much beyond grabbing a handful of ultra balls because they're like 60 a piece.

No, saving is definitely way faster. It's pretty much instant.

The notch in a Pikachu's tail is sexual dimorphism. There are creatures in the game that have different female and male models. All of the notched tailed Pikachu are female.
