Crosscontaminant posted:Why would you do this? I boxed mine pretty quickly too for the same reason. I also ditched Snorlax because of how good it was and I refuse to download the event Torchic until after I've beat the Elite 4 because apparently it's an unstoppable hellbeast but also out of protest because Blaziken is stupid and I'm still pissed that it isn't a Mega Sceptile.

Has anyone else used a Vivillon for the main game? It learns Bug Buzz at level 35, and way before then you get Draining Kiss and Psybeam. This butterfly is pretty  . Too bad it wasn't Bug/Fairy with Levitate.

If you're on the pokemon list, you can hit the little silver TM icon to get to moves like Fly without going through the menus. Well, it opens the menu right to an expanded "USE A MOVE". Saves a few seconds, at least.

Do I need to have a Pokeball in my bag to get Shedinja or will any other kind of ball do? I just evolved Nincada and didn't get Shedinja even though I had a ton of Great Balls.

Neo_Crimson posted:Because it makes things too easy to the point of being boring? That's the reason why I only use the event Blaziken in emergencies. Yeah I'm getting close to just boxing my entire team and starting over from scratch because they're like 5 levels over the Gym Leaders monsters (c'mon Game Freak let me catch everything without jacking my Pokémon's levels up to insane heights I haven't had a Pokémon this overlevelled since I was 5  ).Which would suck because I like most of my guys but there's zero challenge to any of the fights.

This thread has been moving extremely fast so I'm not sure if this has been mentioned before but all my Claunchers are hatching out of great balls. Do the babies inherit the pokeball of the mother or something? :0 Edit: also post-game I got a Swirlix evo dress in the friend safari town. It's so goofy!

Mennonites Revenge posted:Big thanks for the Amie guide, Onean. One question, does Affection ever decrease? Not a problem.  As far as I know, Affection will never decrease. If it does, it's at an incredibly slow pace. Maybe if the pokemon is in a box? I'm in the middle of a cave right now and can't test that one, but I doubt it. It's probably similar to Happiness or the contest stuff from gen III.And then I just remembered I forgot to mention that Affection is NOT Happiness. I'll have to fix that.

Man, I'm really close to just saying gently caress it and having an all fighting type run. I already have Blaziken, Chesnaught, and Hawlucha(who's quickly becoming my favorite) in my current group and I have a Pancham and a Scraggy in my box that I really want to level up. So many options!

Unbound posted:Do you have any standard pokeballs in your inventory? That's not it. I hatched a charmander (got from GTS in a pokeball), Houndour (caught with a dusk ball) and a... um, crayfish-guy (got over GTS in a pokeball) in that order in quick succession and the kids came out of the eggs in poke/dusk/pokeballs. Other parent was a Ditto every time.

Dehry posted:So I just encountered a ghost in lumoise city on the 2nd floor of an office building. Apparently I am not the one. whoever said there was no post game is lying. Hey I saw that too. I thought it was the lady in Hotel Richissime who would tell you to be quiet because she needed to hear the elevator. I have no idea what it's about, but now I'm curious. Also is there anything more to that haunted house in the swamp? I intentionally didn't tip the guy because he said bad stuff would happen, I was hoping that meant a special ghost encounter or something.

I actually know the answer- my family has a bizarrely draconian stance on Christmas where I, as a younger member of the family, am not allowed to buy myself anything new from October through December to maintain my ability to make a Christmas List. Unfortunately, this prohibits me from playing Pokemon Y (because X is for losers) until basically the end of the year. So the "why" is really more existential.

For pokemon amie, 2 runthroughs of a game will reset your pokemon's enjoyment and fullness, letting you go back and feed/pet it all the way up again.

Get head it mode to unlimited difficulty (play through the difficulties sequentially) play it twice and you should get at least 5 of the treats with swirled cream with a topping. Rub the Pokémon and feed them 5 of those treats. Play 2 times again. You'll max it out in 30 minutes or less. Playing dress up is so fun. Sorry bank balance.

So guys, in the postgame I want to start using some different pokeymans in the battle thingy, but I want to try to get them up to a reasonable level and whatnot. The issue is that I don't know where or how to grind. Do you grind just by sticking lucky egg on a duder, exp share them up in the E4? is there a better location than one that I have a good good chance of just dying in? How do you grind, and where do you grind?

Anybody else using a Carbink? This thing is insanely resistant to damage and I love its goofy little ears. If it gets Recover or any way to heal itself outside of Rest I'll be the happiest person. Storyline Lucario deserves to be boxed because Lucario is lame and I got sick of him being shoved in my face as this "super cool" pokemon.

Ok, so I haven't played since gold and silver, and holy crap am I lost. I broke down and got this game because I heard so many good things about it. Pokemon breeding? EV training? poke amie? How does all this online stuff work? Where can I go to get up on the curve and make a murder team for online play and get boss tote bags?
