Boomstick Quaid posted:From what I can tell, it looks like the power training items give their EVs in addition to the opposing pokemon EVs instead of in place of their EVs. So this makes the old way of EV training basically nonviable. If I read that right, they always did that. You get pokemon's EVs + 4 EVs of the Power Item's type.

Complexcalibur posted:Is there any easy place early in the game to raise happiness? I want my Azurill to evolve early enough that it can learn all the actually useful moves that Marill gets. If the leveling progress is anything like BW2, I have until level 20, and I'm at 11 right now. The lady in Satalune City says we are 'Very connected to each other', but I guess that isn't high enough. Soothing Bags? You could also use EV berries.

One of my passerby friends from Norway is a female with pigtails, and it's not one of the pre-made icons you can use. Maybe there are more hair colors/styles than I thought! I did just dye my hair orange, I dunno if that was because my outfit matched or what.

You get more hairstyles by going to the hair stylist a bunch of times - about 10ish times or so. When she mentions an old (or strange, I can't remember) man, you're getting close.

Sit down for dinner by paying 100,000p, get back 207,000 in return after selling the mushrooms and getting paid for winning battles. Can't wait to go to Sushi High Roller and see how much extra money you get from playing there.

Emalde posted:Goldeen has a higher base speed than Aegislash. Max Speed Jolly Aegislash has 480 Speed at +2, which outspeeds everything slower than +1 Base 97 or Base 169. Adamant Aegislash hits 438, the same as Base 150 Speed. It has the speed to pull off Automotize but you'll run into a lot of stuff that you can't OHKO without a Swords Dance boost; especially since it's stuck with weak BP STABs.

I think my one major complaint about this game is that it's way way too easy. Like, never in any other pokemon game did I beat all the bosses,gym leaders, and elite four without taking a single party wipe.

Did Jon Blow work on this game's story? Because god drat at the amount of pretentious bullshit I just ran into in Lumiose. Get the hell outta here with this dumb-rear end storyline, Game Freak. Go back to silly teams who want silly things. No one liked or wanted it when Advance Wars tried going all grimdark, no one wants it here.

Yeah, I really don't think going for speed is at all beneficial to Aegislash. It wants to be as slow as possible so it can tank the hit before it stance dances. Also I'm not totally convinced that Aegislash wants to be a physical attacker. It has great special attack, too, and it learns Flash Cannon and Shadow Ball (which is a higher BP than its other ghost STABs).

Yeah, there's literally never been a main villain in a pokemon game who wanted anything overly dark. Like, say, destroying an entire universe so he can reshape it in his image. And the series has always had light-hearted villains, like the genetic experiment that went nuts and murdered everyone involved in his creation before flying off, and was described as incredibly violent!

Special Aegislash would also be pretty good, but you also have to look at what you're going to be likely to use Steel and Ghost moves against and what kind of defenses they have. The majority of rock types have large physical defenses, but ghost, psychic, and fairy types heavily lean toward special defense. Ice is a bit of a mixed bag. He can do either, depending on what else you have on your team. Also, though Shadow Ball is a bit better than Shadow Claw, Gyro Ball seems a hell of a lot better than Flash Cannon if you set him up to be extremely slow.
