Oh if you grew up playing Red and Blue this game is a total nostalgia boner. My party involves a Mega venusaur, a Snorlax I had to wake up with a pokeflute, and I caught a wild eevee. A WILD EEVEE

Has there been any word on how fast/slow battles are in X/Y compared to the older ones? I remember there being some concern over battles being way more slower-paced now that there are full 3-d models that have to act out attacks.

Someone in the previous thread told me that battles are suppose to be faster in this one. The only other Pokemon I played was Diamond, and battles in that were insanely slow.

Sorry if this has been cleared up before but can anyone confirm the number of SD blocks Pokemon takes up? I've heard its 14,000, in which case I'm going to need to do a significant tidy up cause I'm impatient

Ooh wow, I do not have that much space I think.

SD cards are cheap if you can order them online. They're a loving rip off at most stores.

I just have to delete one game and i'm good, it turns out.

Pokemon speedrunner and angry Australian extraordinaire Werster is streaming his first playthrough at the moment "until he passes out": http://www.twitch.tv/werster

It looks like he has a sped up battle option selected, and its pretty fast. That is good for those who are wondering.

None, by the definition you're implicitly using. Skiddo, Rhyhorn and Mamoswine can be ridden in specific areas to cross particular obstacles, and I believe Gogoat can be used to get around Lumiose?

Darn, maybe in future sequels they let you ride certain pokemon that you capture.

No stores nearby doing a midnight release. I guess I'll have to wait 10 hours to join in on the fun.

That or encase myself in ice to avoid the wait.

If you know you are not going to go to a midnight release, then why not just eshop?

Uh.

According to the website

http://www.pokemon.com/us/

It might actually be three more hours, unless it's basing it off the client's system clock in which case laffo

We'll find out in forty minutes or so, I guess!

Website clocks always base it off your region on your computer.

Who lives on the west coast and is able to buy Pokemon right now? Just so we can confirm that west coast does not have to wait until midnight.

Is there a way to take the rollerblades off? Movement on these things couldn't be more annoying if it tried.

Go to the power plant, which is under the 4th city gym, I think. After that, Go to not-Eiffel Tower in Luminose.

Is it at the place with the wind, and the pokemon that hide underground? I cannot find out where to go there.

Is there any setting or reason that my in game clock continues to count up when my System is in sleep mode? I played for only a few hours yesterday but my save says 9 hours.

Do you have the wifi turned on? I think that's what is doing it.

Wifi kills the battery real fast anyways.

Revol posted:

Yes. It's a really annoying flaw that I think is in the 3DS itself and not the game. Nintendo has made strides, but still doesn't quite know how to handle networking.

The whole point of sleep mode in mobile devices is to conserve battery life. That is why wifi turns off. It's like this in all mobile devices minus smartphones. It's not a flaw, it's intentional. Stress Passing still works because that's a pretty low power feature.

Is it true that if I have a pokemon out that is going up against a wild pokemon that is a significantly lower level, I can just throw a pokeball out right away to capture it, even if its at full health?
