Pokémon It's the Pokemon thread - Part 2

[SolarTiger]

Anyone have a ditto in their friend safari?

 

[Duke]

I've added WolfCypher

 

[SuperFerret]

I've added Ferret.

I've added WolfCypher

I've added neither of you, but I will do so shortly.


Also, I just traded Skippy for a female Bulbasaur. Huzzah!

 

[SuperFerret]

Added Wolf and Duke.

Anyone else notice the spike in difficulty on Victory Road? I pretty much steamrolled the gyms and everything else, but I'm getting my ass kicked here.

 

[Matt Mortem]

I need a Grimer. How do I get one in X? Does anybody know?

 

[Spidey-Bat]

You can only get Muk which are in the post-game Safari Zone.

 

[Lord]

I don't have a Nintendo 3D, but now you can play against other players online? Can you also trade that way?

 

[Ramsay Snow]

Hey guys trying to get my friends lists up

My friend code 4639-9144-6968

2062-9202-4728

I should post my Friend Code too.

0490-5190-3366

Added you guys. Here's mine too: 3480-3902-3788

The main new way is the PSS (Player Search System). It's in the game's interface and you can connect to the Internet and battle and trade with players who are online, both friends and strangers.

I took a look at the list of mega evolutions, and you know, I find it odd that none of your Kanos starters have one. You'd think they would.

 

[SuperFerret]

I'm hearing theories that all the starters are slated for one, solely because Blaziken has one. It would make sense that they would branch out with that as DLC/Mystery Gift sort of stuff.

 

[SolarTiger]

I'll add all of you guys in hopes one of you have a ditto safari. My friend code is 1864-9326-2464

 

[Ramsay Snow]

I wrote an article that I really think highlights what made the Pokémon franchise a mega hit. Feel free to read it and tell me what your favorite part of Pokémon handheld history!

Another nice and nostalgic article. I think the shiny stuff was introduced in the 2nd generation but not sure if that would qualify as part of an evolution of a new generation.

It's pretty amazing how the small changes can really change something. My fave part of Pokemon handheld history is Pokemon Gold. What a game and what a time to play it.

Not sure if I'll have anything good but I added you.

[WolfCypher]

I'm gonna have to read Blackwolf's article when I get off work, as well as FC-add the rest of you. Anybody wanna battle in about 5 hours?

Don't be shy, there are no "lose records" in this game. If you win, you get a win count. If you lose, it never shows up on your profile as far as I checked. C'mon, anyone, battle when I get off!

 

[Ramsay Snow]

I'll battle you to test out how stable my internet connection is lol.

I won't promise a challenge though since I'm still got 1st badge.

 

[WolfCypher]

Well you know that online battling makes all Pokèmon automatically level 50. Your Pokèmon lower than that be auto-buffed to Lv50, and any above 50 get deleveled to their Lv50 stats.

 

[Ramsay Snow]

Yeah, but my Pokemon haven't evolved since I prefer to evolve them much later on or at certain occassions when they learn a particular move.

 

[Tron Bonne]

Really? Do they keep all of their moves even they learned them after 50.

 

[Ramsay Snow]

Yeah, they're exactly the same except for level and stats.

Everybody knows how Friend Safari works? After you beat the game, you can visit the Safari Zone. Using a friend added to your 3DS Friend List, you explore the Safari Zone and will always encounter specific Pokèmon tied to their Friend Code. They don't have to have Pokèmon X/Y, just so long as you have them registered on your system. Pokèmon found in the Safari Zone frequently have near perfect IVs and/or Hidden Abilities.

Here's the type of Pokèmon you guys I've registered are tied to in my Friend Safari;

Icedrake - Gloom & Garbodor
deano - Trapinch & Camerupt
kidcomet - Bibarel & Gyarados
Stephen - Lampent & Pumpkaboo

 

[SuperFerret]

So I've got a ghost type safari?

Great, now no one will want to be my friend

 

[SuperFerret]

I have actually been thinking of getting a Vileplume, to be honest.

Also, I know the people who make these things deserve credit, but **** any and all credits in video games. I just beat the Elite 4, and the Champion, [BLACKOUT]and AZ[/BLACKOUT], and I just didn't want to sit through the entire (unskippable) roll call, so clearly I need to go back to right after defeating the champ and start over so I can continue playing.

Do you get to choose what Pokemon are in it?

 

[WolfCypher]

You get to choose which friend to use when you go to the Safari Zone. No, you don't choose which 2-3 Pokèmon or type your friend code will represent.

 

[Tron Bonne]

Interesting feature. So, is it just completely random or is based on something in relation to that friend?

Anyone know if there's any Streetpass stuff for X & Y btw? I've got quite a few passes of people playing them, but I haven't seen anything pop up in regards to passes in the game.
