The least liked one always ends up with the coolest looking evolution

That's easy. Fairy beats EVERYTHING. (Not really. But it curbstomps dragons, dark, and fighting, which is awesome and is why my Sylveon has outleveled my starter)

You can get a Ralts early on, and it's part fairy now. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to learn any fairy moves, and is pretty useless until 30.

Also, how are you all fashioned up? I've found two fashion stores so far. One gave me hats (why can't you take those off? Not that I'm complaining...), and the other gave me the option to show my skin everywhere. Where are the dresses, man?

Aww...

I actually liked it when the story mode gave a few challenges.

Though I heard they made it so that you don't have to grind your pokemon to level anymore.

Zorafim

They did? That's news to me. They gave exp share early, but each non-battling pokemon gets 10% of the exp given with that.

Leveling is way, way, way easier in this. No more walking in circles in fields - leveling just happens as you stroll through content.

One of my friends told me about this too. Even though I saved multiple times in Lumiose before I heard about this and experienced no problem I haven't done it since. I've actually avoided Lumiose as much as possible since. At least, according to some sites, Nintendo are aware of it and plan on patching it.

Other than this I've been enjoying the game a lot :D

I've read it's actually 50%.

This... might make me pick up the game. I haven't finished the last few Pokemon games since I always find myself without a Pokemon of a particular element that's strong enough to help me take on whatever I'm up against. I just don't have the time to grind like I did when I first played Pokemon.

gigawuts
Oct 17, 2013, 03:46 PM
It is 50%, yes. That's a really big part of the faster leveling, since every single thing gets 50% and that adds up fast when spread across 5 other pokemon.

Exp is ridiculously easy to get in this game. Money as well once you rank up in the battle chateau.

Also I highly recommend signing up for the Pokémon Global Link site. It has a crazy amount of stat tracking and the poke mile shop on there is currently the same as in game but every thing is half price. Also you can upload photos with out messing with your sd card.

I got it and have beaten Elite Four, caught Mewtwo, Yveltal and Zygarde so there's only Zapdos left (not sure I can be bothered when I have one on White 2 anyway...). Good game as usual, but I do feel it's a bit lacking in post-Elite Four activities. Legendaries seemed way easier to catch as well, I caught Zygarde on almost yellow HP with no statuses with the first Ultra Ball I threw :lol:

There's the restaurant you can battle at but it costs 100k a visit which I don't fancy doing :lol: Kind of wish the game had the same key system as Black/White 2 where you could increase the levels of Trainers/Elite Four.

Guess I can look for shinies :wacko:

Of course, I could sperg out and get into the metagame crapola with natures and AVs or whatever they're called, but that's not for me, so I'm out of activities.

After you try out the battle facility and do the post-game rival battle, a plot line starts up when you go to Lumiose.

Been there done that and I thought Looker's role came to late in the series. If he were introduced in Pokémon Colosseum which was a den of crime and villainy to start out with it would have made more sense to me. Kind of like Hal in PSU it was a good idea just used at the wrong time.

Who am I kidding; Pokémon Colosseum was epic as was!

Bumping this thread since I've been playing this a lot lately (I have Y version). If anyone else still plays, feel free to add me, though lately I've been breeding like crazy to try and get good IV's on the team I'm building (aside from playing FF14), so I probably won't be battling much yet. Even if you don't play much anymore, I'd still love to get access to more Friend Safaris!

My friend code: 0318-8097-4335

My Friend Safari is Grass-type, and should have Oddish, Stantler, and Gogoat, if I remember correctly.

I'll go ahead and add the people that have posted their codes already; feel free to PM me if you'd rather do that.

Also, I think Pokemon Bank opens up on the 27th, so there should be a lot of people importing stuff from the other games soon.

Poke bank has been delayed due to Nintendo's servers being overwhelmed by new wii u / 3ds and jp poke bank users.

http://www.serebii.net/index2.shtml


Nintendo have announced that they have temporarily removed Pokémon Bank from the Nintendo 3DS eShop. This is following the massive influx of users on both Nintendo 3DS and Wii U coming on Christmas, plus the addition of Pokémon Bank causing the Nintendo Network to drive to a halt. This means users cannot download it anymore and currently cannot access the features of the game.. It is currently unclear when Pokémon Bank and Poké Transporter will return, or if the western release is delayed. They have made it clear that the 30 day trial for previously registered users will restart when it returns.
Edit @ 13:14: Pokémon Bank is now listed with a release of TBD (To Be Decided) on the North American and European eShops. We'll bring details on this as soon as we can
