You Should have aquatail. I thought azumarill learned that earlier than level 40?

That's level 47 according to Serebii, assuming they haven't moved it from B/W. I was hoping Azumarill might get whatever physical Fairy attack people were talking about earlier.

Sending out baby Chespins with Shadow Claw and Bulldoze into Wonder Trade makes me really happy, for some reason. Like, some poor little guy is sending out his stupid bunny thing and getting back the ultimate luchador warrior baby.

And I got a German Goomy from some guy. It's called Viscora. :3:

For anyone who didn't notice (like me), on the GTS you can search by "what pokemon" and it will let you type in the name without needing to have seen it. Traded one of my egg Froakies for a Ditto and now I can breed like mad. Maaaaaaad!

Aww crap. These vivillions actually gained two levels in the battle they evolved in, so now they can't learn struggle bug hilariously enough. Of course I'm not going to use them, but I need to remember that incase I get another pokemon that learns a move on level up as to avoid messing them up.

Fly is good for non-competitive purposes. Strength is OK as well. Cut sucks, though. I really don't think either Strength or Cut should be HMs any more; you can't even trap yourself in any way with Strength since the rocks stay moved forever, and I havn't encountered any places in X where I could have trapped myself with cut (ie, no screen transitions after Cutting that have no other exits).

I really wish they would make the HMs into items or something. Give me a pickaxe to smash rocks/an axe to cut trees or whatever. I don't want to teach any of my main guys those moves but I don't want to waste a team slot lugging around a useless Bidoof.

To be fair it doesn't seem like you need HM moves as much in this game but it still bugs me

There's also a struggle bug TM in not paris, but I won't be wasting a heart scale or money on either of those guys.

EDIT: Just got a pupitar from a wonder trade, level 45. Too bad it's both male and has no nickname and as such is completely and utterly useless.

I evolved mine at level 52. It has yet to learn anything, though I did have to go to the Move Relearner for King Shield, so it learns that at some point.

Being said, my doublade learned Sacred Sword at I think 50. So I would wait for that.

Where is the move learner? Is he standing next to the move deleter? If not, do you know where the deleter is? What currency do they use?

You get pokemiles when you trade (such as wonder trade). The further someone is from you, the more pokemiles. You also get a few just from walking around in the game. You can trade them to a dude in Paris's Pokecenter for items, such as PP Up.

You get them from doing stuff online like sending O-Powers or trading, and they're essentially like flight miles in that there's one guy in Lumiose City's South Pokecenter who trades you items for pokemiles.

You get them for trading with people. The distance from their selected geographic location between yours is converted to pokemiles, which you can trade at an NPC in one of the early towns for things like Rare Candy/PP Up/whatever.

Yup, in order to evolve Sligoo, it has to reach level 50 and level up in the rain while it's actually raining on the world map. This can be rather annoying if, like me, no where in your game is currently raining. Thankfully waiting an hour and trying again got me rain.

Guh, I don't get why I'm so slow. I'm just taking my time catching pokemon and messing around in the Amie/Training so I only have two badges. Seems like everyone I know is way ahead of me now, so I'm kind of bummed out since I can't fight with them now.

I don't know why I seem to move through this game at a snail's pace.

11 to 12 hours in and, I only have one badge that I just got today. I only get to play through and be excited by all the little things once, y'know? Like the fact my hands lift up to rustle the tall grass, that I kneel to talk to kids, that trainers turn to look at me, and that I put things in my bag and that it takes a moment to build up speed on my skates. I spent 5 minutes spinning around the fountain just north of Santalune.

And this is probably just a personal thing, but I'm so delighted to see trainers of all skin tones in the world. I've been playing Pokemon since Gen1, and everyone was just so....white. (And I had to cross dress.) It took really until Gen5 to not have the world a sea of pasty paleness and then other than Lenora it was....dancers and sports guys, go stereotypes. But now there's things like the schoolgirls are brown! It's nice to really feel a little more included in the world of Pokemon.

You get them from wonder trades and normal trades (and maybe streetpasses? I got 1 "PM" from a streetpass. Possibly battles too?), and there's a vendor in notParis that will trade them for items e.g. 60PM for 1 ultra ball, 1000PM for a PP up, that sort of thing.

Apparently they'll also be used for the new dream world, and old DW points are converted into PMs or something.

One of the kids you start your journey with will be standing ouside. It's a Red cafe to the left of the Pokecenter by about a block or so.

I'm still in this Mirror Cave and I found TM74 and now I'm standing in the middle of a slightly purpleish circle. Is this where the Alakazamite is, and do I need to have an Alakazam with me?

Use Fly to go to the center of town (Lumiose has 3 different Fly destinations). Immediately turn around until you spy a Team Flare guy. He's right out front of a red cafe. That's your destination. Remember that spot for later, too.
