Wow, I just found Trevor's house. His parent's basically abandoned him and his big sister just to go train their Pokémon around the world. :smith:

Yup. Stuff like that is why I actually kinda-sorta like the crew. They have stories and reasons for being how they are. That and the girl who takes the pokemon weak to your starter is rather nice.

Well, then again I really don't like the new actual "rival" friend. He/She doesn't even count as a speed bump.

I've just beaten the game and I'm fooling around with the friend safari. If "Friend A" has beaten the elite 4 and we're online at the same time, do all three of the pokemon in his safari have a hidden ability? Or just the third one? In this case the 3rd is a Braixen who I guess ought to have Magician as a hidden ability, but I'm not sure what this Ponyta or this Slugma are supposed to have. Is there a way to check? I guess with Magician I can just test it out in battle.

Also, if I'm trying to speed level some starters I traded/bred just to get the early pokedex entries filled in, what's the best way? One of the cafes? I haven't been to any yet and I'm not sure how they work.

All of the pokemon will have a chance to have their hidden ability, not just the 3rd.

As for leveling, I like doing the Triple Battle at Le Wow (the 3-star restaurant) because it makes good cash, it's pretty fast provided you use strong, high level dudes (all the pokemon in the Triple Battle there are around level 66), and a few of the pokemon used in it (Audino, Togekiss) give big EXP. Make sure to make use of the Exp and Prize Money O-Powers, too.

Thanks for the advice. Is there a way to check and see if the Braixen I captured (or any other friend safari 'mon for that matter) has the hidden ability?

Yes. Check its ability. The hidden ones for the three starters are Magician for fennekin, protean for froakie and bulletproof for chespin. The rest you'd have to google.

For the one you already captured, just check its summary screen. Braixen's hidden ability is Magician.

For uncaptured pokemon, use a poke with the Trace ability (some Ralts have it), which copies the opponent's ability and shows you what it is.

Macaluso posted:

They're in different caves. Mewtwo is in the cave in the pokemon village, Zygarde is at the bottom of Terminus Cave.

Gym leader characterization feels a lot weaker here compared to Unova. Granted, they apparently show up from time to time at the Battle Mansion, but outside of that, I think I've only met two of the gym leaders outside of their gym. I hope this gets addressed in Z or I/J or R/Θ, Unova has spoiled me in that regard.

Leave the safari and check them in your PC. Ability is listed on the stats screen there. Braixen's hidden ability is Magician, in case you don't know.

Mewtwo: Pokemon Village. If you try to go before you become Champion, someone will block the way.
Zygarde: Terminus Cave just north of where you battle Sycamore the second time. It's pretty deep and if you try getting to where it is before you become Champion, someone will block the way.

Uh, is wild pokemon being attracted to your lead's type a thing? I was trying to find a Hawlucha in Route 10 and had the new Psychic cat as lead. Nothing but Sigilyphs. Sigilyphs for loving days. I could have sworn they were rare my first time through. Put a Fletchinder as my lead, very next poke is Hawlucha.

Just confirmation bias or is this real?

That mysterious Backpacker that gives out the Strange Souvenir is officially not from the other regions.

What I think is more interesting is that, at some point, someone comments that your player character doesn't smell like they're from Kalos and to the best of my recollection while you're said to have just moved to the region you're not said to have come from anywhere else in particular. I'm curious if they're putting in some references to GenVII already, or if Z might not have another smaller region (Poke-London?) that you go to.

We don't need no mega stones!



...or decent type coverage. This team was pretty fun though. Fairy types are really good. I turned off Exp share before the 6th gym so by the end game I wasn't horribly overleveled. The Elite 4 was pretty fun! All of them were challenging except for the fire lady who went down like a chump. Sir Steel wiped out half my team. I was mega disappointed in the champion though. Easily the worst champ in the series, all of her pokemon were OHKOd except for the mega, which just went down in two hits. No idea why she sucked so much compared to the rest of the E4.

Yeah, I'm wondering if they fired the writer from BW between the anemic gyms and the god awful villainous team plot. Did we really have to run with (are we spoiling this? The dude's not exactly subtle) Mister "My Hair Exploded so I will make Everything Explode" after N? I liked N. I'm still hoping he'll pop up at the Pokemon Village at some event muttering to himself about how he has to go back to Unova to stop Ghetsis/return to the Plasma Castle for his weekly rear end-kicking. Why couldn't we have gotten someone else like N?

So if you were to EV train a Mr.Mime, what would you want him to do? I know he's not a top tier pokemon or anything but I want to use one solely because he scares the poo poo out of my brother. That fucker got a shiny Victorebell so I want revenge :argh: I have no idea what to have him do though. Just build him to be tanky so he can throw up reflect/light screen in double battles?
