Pretty sure you can find Siglyph's pretty early on as well. In addition to this you can find Goletts on the same route as Siglyph, Honedge on Route 6, there are Solosis in the cave with all the mirrors before the third gym, and Ralts and Abra, but I can't remember where you find them.

Bag of Sun Chips posted:Did I miss a certain route/area in the game or are there just not that many Ghost/Psychic Pokemon? The fire starter turns psychic, and you can catch Ralts really early on, so that's either Psychic/Fairy or Psychic/Fighting depending on gender. There's Spoink in the first mountain region, Woobat in the caves, Espurr is solid (if kind of dull, like a faster version of Munna from last gen) and...that's all I can think of. Grass types are everywhere though, I'm loaded 'em. You can find Ferroseed in the Reflecting Cave (they drop from the ceiling) and that's a pretty outstanding grass type on its own. I think there's supposed to be a Grass/Ghost type too, but I ain't seen poo poo. Can anyone tell me when the flower fairy evolves to its third form? I've gotten her up to level 37 and that's usually where everything else likes to evolve...is this another stone evo?

So I beat the game last night and I've started breeding up some mons. How the hell are you supposed to catch up a bunch of L1 monsters in the postgame? There isn't an entire half of the map to explore like in B/W, and it's not like there's a L70 Audino outside of PokeVersailles for me to beat up on over and over. Is it really just "Go the Unknown Cave and/or Elite Four and grind like a motherfucker"?

Not sure if this is the correct thread to do this but I'm looking for more friend safari people. I have a Breloom, Sawk, and meinfoo on mine. I'm really looking for someone with a froakie or frogdier on theirs but anyone else is welcome. My code is 5413-1184-4624 And for something on topic, do I get anything for doing that post-game detective quest or is it just for more story?

Costs 100k to enter, 5 (?) battles of 60+ pokemon (one of which has a audino in it for nice XP) get 150-200k pokedollars in prize money and items back. Rinse and repeat.

It doesn't go away but it stops being infectious is the Pokemon is in your party during the rollover from 11:59PM to 12:00AM, being in a PC Box stops that, I'm not sure if them being in a daycare stops it either.

Egg moves stream lined, EV training actually acknowledged and easy to keep track of, Hidden Abilities easier, heck with Friend Safari guaranteeing good IVs on Pokemon it's going to be a lot simpler to create a competitive team.

In case anyone is confused about this, there are multiple strains of pokerus (?) and it varies how long a pokemon will remain infectious for. The strain mine have goes away if the pokemon is in the party at midnight on two occasions (not necessarily consecutive).

Pokerus doesn't seem to be a very big deal this generation with Super Training existing. Although in theory, if one were to happen to have a friend whose Friend Safari solely contained two pokemon that coincidentally gave identical EVs for a particular stat, would that perhaps be faster than Super Training with all the usual appropriate EV training stuff? Friend Safari has a lot of potential with the ability to restrict the pokemon you can fight in a single grass patch, and if you had enough friends with the right pokemon it could be pretty useful. Not sure if it's more useful or quicker than Super Training though. It'd certainly be a pain unless you had every single goon friended and got lucky with it.
