You want bad advice?

Anything is okay if you don't get caught!

... I hope this helps!
I managed to get an ideal starter Fennekin. Female, with Modest. I've slapped an Everstone on her and am cranking out tons of Modest Fennekin! :getin:

Sadly, the babies don't seem to be flying off the shelves for reasonable trades.

It's named Binacle, if anyone knows where to find it. Also, when should I expect to find a Sun Stone, and does Helioptile still learn things post-evolution?

You can find Binacle by smashing rocks on the beach before the second gym.

Out of curiosity, how early can I get Mawile and how early can I get its mega stone? Mawile is, like, the only mega I'm actually excited for and I really really want to get it.

Mawile's can be found in the glittering cave.

I found a Khangaskan in there too but I accidentally killed it @_@

I'll take one. I'm only up to the second gym on Y (then again, the second gym is a good distance).

My information is up in the trading thread. You should post there that you're manufacturing Fennekins.

You can also find Cubones in there. Also Lunatones and Solrocks (that won't loving stay in their pokeballs. :argh:). Supposedly the Old Amber can be found in the rocks in the back room if you're lucky.

Okay so Wonder Trading lead to the most amazing thing for me. I Wonder Traded a Kakuna to some German guy & got his Panpour, so I decided to trade my Pansear now on Wonder Trade, however I GOT MY KAKUNA BACK FROM SOMEONE ELSE IN GERMANY! So now he's sitting back in my box one and I might just evolve it and keep with me, but I dunno.

Were any other Mega Pokemon discovered today?

So here's my team lineup;

-Greninja
-Vespiqueen
-Gardevoir
-Malamar
-Mawlie
-Carbink

Now, am I right in thinking that all of these pokemone can not learn fly? It only occurred to me after I planned out the whole team and now I don't want to bench anyone just to get a flyer. I assumed Vespiqueen would be able to but then I remembered she arbitrarily can't learn fly.

I got into not-paris boutique - It was either creating a PR video (which is very fun, definitely gonna do another one with more effort) or getting a hair cut and leaving the style up to the barber. So try doing that.

Also everything is expensive as balls in there.

Where are you in the game? I'm just past the gym in the actual city and they keep shutting me down. I've gotten a haircut, done a video, etc., and it doesn't seem to work. Nobody seems to have a reliable answer, unfortunately, it just works for them. But it might be tied to game progression?

Some one said how they got in a couple pages ago. I think you have to have a matching set.


e: found it.

Just figured out how to get into the luminoise city boutique. You have to wear matching gender appropriate clothes. Then they'll allow you in, but the cheapest item in there is around 85 grand.

I've beaten the elite four but I wasn't allowed in immediately after doing that - I had to do *something*. Its a bit anticlimactic as well, all the clothes were terrible to meh and ten times more expensive than the other shops. Although come to think of it, it was the only shop I saw any dresses in.

I think Tyrantrum is one of my early favorites of this gen. It has really good stats all around, awesome bulk especially in sandstorm, absurd dual STAB in Head Smash/Stone Edge+Outrage, solid coverage options to hit Steels and Fairies, and an interesting unique type.

Oh yeah, and it's a motherfuckin' Tyrannosaurus rex.

That's awesome, he's literally been my favourite since he was released and it disappoints me how Gamefreak always sticks him so late in the game. Doesn't seem that way this time.

e: Holy poo poo I found a Croagunk on Route 8. It's like this game was made just for me. It's getting hard to narrow it down to only 6.
