Just two more Unowns now. I don't even know why I'm collecting them again when they don't give you those seals anymore. I suppose I can still write rude words in boxes.


One of those jerks (I think Masuda?) has a team of three cosplay Pikachus. I want a team of cosplay Pikachus too, drat it. Oh well, I guess if anyone deserves perks like that it's the devs.

It was a shame I had to look it up, because that would have been awesome to be blindsided by. Although apparently it has Memento so it could be annoying.

No idea about that, it ended like most of my captures do. By a single Quick Ball.

Latias - #380 (Timid)
HP: 31

SpA: 31
SpD: 30
Speed: 30

At level 30 it all looks like max IVs. I'm not reseting that. Too bad the Hidden Power ended up being Bug.

Here's a link to a specific post on Smogon with a ton of secret base Blisseys:
ORAS Super Secret Bases Thread

There a huge number under the "Multiple Locations" tab, and I can confirm that the Hex Maniac on route 118 works; I scanned her in yesterday and just fought her right now. Given where I am in the game the Blisseys are level 40, but even so I watched my Level 1 Treekco become a level 35 Grovyle in one battle.:getin:

E: Also, there's a strategy to get two battles a day per trainer:
1. Fight the trainer at their base, recruit them and then fight them again at your base.

2. Do the reverse: fight them at your base, dismiss them, and fight them again at their own base.

Here's a bunch of codes that fill the Secret Meadow with triple battle Blissey bases. They all have Toxic Orbs and only use Healing Wish for easy leveling.

On the topic of secret bases, does anyone know what I need to do to get flags from the trainers in my base? Is it only a one time deal or just pure luck if they give me flags or not?

McDragon

I think they have to be Streetpass ones, and it's only if they've actually got flags themselves that day. So basically, yeah, pure luck.

Since it has a base 150 attack... maybe. But a 120 in sp. attack, so a specs could be surprising.

You can get like a hundred a day with this process:
Delete as many existing bases as possible
Spend some time online so you get Passersby
Wait for the mailbox looking icon on the BuzzNav to appear (once daily? I don't know how this works), click it to get new secret bases (you'll get like 20-30 if your slots are free).

Go talk to them all in their bases; your first chat with them gives you an item and the second reveals their lifetime flag total. Ignore those with 0 or 1000, you are trying to find people who actively hunted flags today. Invite the ones with decent totals to be your secret pal.

When you have five pals, return to your base and chat with them.
If someone is gonna give you any flags they'll do it instantly when you chat to them in your own base.

Had a good time fishing today, caught shiny Wailmer, Carvanha and Feebas all within about half an hour of each other. The Wailmer seemed like it took ages, the Feebas wasn't quite as long, and the Carvanha was in two or three goes, and I wasn't even looking for that one! Gonna send em all over to AS, with the mega stone once I get it, so they can have their fun there

You should definitely use Shiny Milotic in contests.

So I gave playing Pokemon X in nuzlocke mode (first time ever doing it) where every pokemon's name is a randomly generated monster name. The whole style of playing really adds a survival-ish spin to the game. I lost nearly me entire team to the first gym, had it not been for Saintly Raft the Pidgey outspeeding that Vivillion.

e: It occurs to me that the move tutors are in ORAS, not XY, and I'm not in the postgame yet. Sorry.
Though, if you need BP, you could always check PokeBank? Assuming you've got a few pokemon in there, the pokemiles/battle points rack up all the time. I have BP out the wazoo because I'm storing my Living dex in there.

Infinite ammo vs. CYBER PUNCH!!
I returned to my Super Singles run, and am now sitting at 55 wins. I had some close calls in the battles leading up to the chatelaine, evasion-ridden as they were. Then I faced Nita and crushed her with zero trouble. I don't think they even did any damage to my MegaMence. The only attack any of the genies got off was Hurricane, and it missed. Now the battles are easier than before, though I did switch out Cloyster for Weakness Policy mixed Aegislash. Cloyster's last significant action in the Maison was killing Latias with Ice Shard.

Does the Maison only keep track of one streak, or can I get started on doubles/multi/whatever and still keep my Super Singles win count?

I did it with a shiny Feebas that I'd fallen in love with, and little idea re: strategy. All i did was alternate between two solid moves that excite/are neutral, and I won everything.

Just max out its stats with rainbow poffins (four different coloured berries) and get the scarves, you'll get a massive headstart that way.

From what I can tell, you can win any master rank contest just by having the appropriate stat maxed and holding the appropriate scarf. I've had my Chesnaught win two so far like that, and when it counted up the scores, no pokemon's total score was able to exceed Chesnaught's condition score. I dunno what's going on there.

I had it come close to a tie, but yes, with the maxed stat I never once lost.
