The Pokémon Thread

Yeha that Shuckle is no joke. -__-

I can also attest to people not knowing what to do with a team full of legendaries.

It was time for another update.

This came as a shock to me. Laverre City Gym = Saffron City Gym (except that is on a 3D scale).

Talonflame Lv 49
Sparks Jr. Lv 48
Bullby Lv 48
Vivillion Lv 48
Froggles Lv 48
Blaziken Lv 57

All of my Pokemon's base stats have been maxed, but I felt that I did a terrible job at it, so if I ever get the X version I would most likely do better.

While on the subject of Shinies, I have not caught any out this game yet. My shiny Unown "J" will always be my only wild caught shiny, the shiny Haxorus from the Preservation doesn't count since its out in the open and none of the Shiny Event Pokemon don't count either. I dunno when I'm going to start doing wonder trades, but even those shinies from trades won't count either. So congrats to those who recently wild caught their shinies.

I'm kinda ticked that I didn't have a ground type attack for Sparks Jr. in time for Clemont's Gym. Also I've caught a Karrablast that already knows False Swipe, so I dunno if I'm going to start backtracking or just keep going and then worry about catching the rest of the Pokemon during the post-Story.

damn I missed out on going to the Pokemon center on my birthday.

Thanks for the offer ::CMG(UTOPIA)::, but I've done that in the previous generation. I'm most likely just going to focus on catching the new 69 (70 counting Diance) Pokemon for this game.

There is a reset bag? So even if I reach Lv 100 I can still redo the stats?

any one here watching the show on Netflix? I've just finished watching the Battling Eevee Bros episode.

If you're willing to put up with raising berries, you can use the stat reducing berries instead of relying on a stat reset bag that appears randomly.

you can also mix the berries at the juice shop for a drink to reduce the stats on one pokemon. you can only make it once a day though.

You can also get those stat-reducing berries from the balloon popping thing in the Poke Mileage club. Completely, entirely random but it seems to favor the berries for me.

Isn't X/Y, but I figure I would share this, pretty nifty breakthrough for speedrunning/TASing Gold:

---

Mind... blown. I kind of want to try this now.

I don't understand how that works at all, but cool.

---

Here's the technical back story behind it.



Fresh meat.

---

If I need Waterfall to get through Victory Road, I'm screwed.

---

you did real good in the comments there lol

---

I facepalmed so hard.

And then I remember they take a lot of shit about 'cheating' in TASes so I get where he's coming from.

Still doesn't make him less of a moron. >_>

---

It's impossible to do without TAS and it also needs extreme luck manipulation.


for both of you, huge technical explanation is here: http://tasvideos.org/4205S.html

And here's a more ridiculous video:




Thing is not a lot of people understand TAS... so I suppose that was necessary to avoid making people think that it's cheating while it's only glitch abusing.

---

Yeah, I saw it when Hiryuu linked it before.

---

Yea the blue link against the black text on a white background is kinda tough to see.

Kinda makes me wish they'd choose to have some sort of underline on those links.

---

Wow, I give up on this Nuzlocke. I'm stranded in Victory Road. Guess I'm going to just Escape Rope out of here and get my team.

---

Could be worse.

Friend of mine tried X/Y Nuzlocke.

I think he may have gotten to Santalune Forest before giving up because he lost his Pikachu. :x
