Are Metal Coats sold anywhere in game? I've found one, just wondering if I use it to make a Scizor for my playthrough now whether I'd be wasting the only coat available.

Can you get all 3 gen 1 starters in one run without trading? I would much rather run with them through the game than the new starters because I'm old and stupid.

Just wanted to know if it was something on my end or not. I know someone was wondering about Pumkaboo sizes earlier. I caught an adamant female one and I'm going to try breeding her and see what sizes I get!

Can anyone confirm/deny if the Pokeball Store in Lumiose starts selling the Kurt balls post-game? If not it's a real fuckin tease that they'd show them but you can't even get them

Had the story force me into getting a Lucario, stole it's mega-stone, named it Buttdog, and gave it away on wonder trade. Enjoy Buttdog, random japanese player. Because I sure don't have room for that rear end in a top hat on my team. (Megablastoise for life)

I put the free Lucario on GTS for a ditto, then bred Torchics and Squirtles (I had already Wonder Traded Braxien at this point). Put a female starter up on GTS and request another starter of any gender, wait an hour or less and it will be there. Trading isn't really anything like you probably think it is from previous games and GTS is available at any time from a touch screen menu. As long as you have a wireless internet connection you can get anything you want traded.

I just have a quick question, what EVs should a chlorophyll venusaur have since its speed is doubled on a sun team? Thanks, I'm not sure what i'll use it for but if i can shut off my brain during the bp earning places then its a big help. vv GauchoNaut2085 fucked around with this message at 07:06 on Oct 17, 2013 |

However, with the weather nerf (all weather is 5 turns now, even with a weather starter), Thick Fat Venusaur may prove more useful anyway. Chlorophyll Venusaur is garbage outside of the sun.

Is there any way to get more than two shiny stones (training/Skiddo Ranch)? Same with Dusk Stones, is there a way to grind for them later on?

I tried to take pictures with my cell phone but they came out super lovely, but both shiny Meowstics looks pretty cool. They traded the blue/white motif for a pale yellow/white motif, with the male being predominantly yellow and having blue eyes and the female being predominantly white and having crazy red pupils. They're both Timid and both Keen Eye, so it's almost like they're twins. Unfortunately for the boy, his best IVs are in Attack and SpDef according to the Kiloude City guy, but the girl got a rating of outstanding and he mentioned her HP, SpDef, and Speed, so I guess all three of those are 31.

No shops I'm able to reach had the game. So I had to order online for my copy of X. Then I bought Y on the eShop anyway. DOWNLOAD FASTER drat IT.  Also, I think I may need to get a bigger SD card. The stock 2GB only has 400 blocks left after installing Y. Is there any way to back up my save data or do I lose everything when I swap cards?

I had a Froakie on the GTS looking for a Dedenne for over 8 hours with no bites. I am still baffled.

60 hours in and I haven't even touched Victory Road. I'm experiencing a drought or something as I've not seen rain at all today. This Sliggoo is burning a hole in my pocket, monster of a problem I'd say.

I don't know the exact specifics, but your save data should be good if you just do a simple copypaste of data from one card to another, but trying to reload a game from a backup will erase everything as part of Nintendo's bizarre data management.

By a copypaste, do you mean by copying it onto a PC and then putting it onto another card? The game itself I'm not worried about, 1.7GB is chump change for me. I just don't want to get deep in the game, decide I need a bigger card and then have to start from scratch.

GauchoNaut2085 posted:I just have a quick question, what EVs should a chlorophyll venusaur have since its speed is doubled on a sun team? Generally the fastest thing you'll ever see are base 110 scarfers, though the most common 110 scarfer in Gen V, Latios, really doesn't want to be using choice items anymore with fairies around so base 108 scarfers (Terrakion, Keldeo, Infernape) might be a better benchmark. How much EVs you need to do that depends on your Venusaur's Speed IV so I can't give you specific advice there. Also if your Venusaur doesn't have a + Speed nature you won't be able to beat 108s anyway so you should just max Speed, which I believe is just enough to beat 105 scarves like Mienshao.
