Pokemon X and Y - Gen VI for the 3DS (SPOILER WARNING)

The registration has already started 14 hours ago. It will last untill the 24th or as long as slots are open. Go to Global link and follow instructions.

The battling starts on the 25th. Beware of trying to alter your battle box before the contest is over, as errors might occur if you do.

Kalos only right?

Yeah, Kalosdex only.

Rate my team. Rate my team.

I've taken to account several possible gaping hole, and I know there are several more, but I simply just stopped caring.

252 Atk/Spd Jolly Staraptor - Choice Band: Brave Bird, U-Turn, Close Combat, Double Edge

252 Atk, 216 Spd, 48 HP Adamant Talonflame - Choice Band: Brave Bird, U turn, Flare Blitz, Filler(Will-o-wisp)

252 Atk/Speed Adamant Dragonite - Lum Berry: Dragon Dance, Extremespeed, Fire Punch, Dragon Claw

252 Atk/Spd Adamant Mamoswine -Life Orb: Icicle Crash, Ice Shard, Earthquake, Stone Edge

192 Sp D, 64 Def, 252 Impish Ferrothorn - Leftovers: Protect, Stealth Rock, Power Whip, Thunder Wave

252 Atk/Spd Jolly Crobat - Black Sludge: Roost, Brave Bird, Defog, U-turn

This is supposed to be an all out physical team; focusing on raw power, and having the two most horrid statuses (Paralysis, powdered sleep moves, burn) covered. Intimidate is a pain, but Landorus hates Mamoswine. Mawile loaths most of the damn team, and Gyara is covered by Ferrothorn.

That team has a massive Stealth Rock weakness.

I have come to the conclusion that I really am getting tired of training 'Mons to level 50.

Why does Vullaby evolve into Mandibuzz at level 54? I just want to be done training. Furisode girls don't show up enough in the Chateau, and the juice shop doesn't have rare soda often enough.

What I wouldn't give for a postgame area with level 50 Audino.

Doesn't matter much for Staraptor or Talonflame; they'll die early anyway, and oh, my bad;

It wasn't Crobat, it was mega Scizor.

Aren't Xerneas and Yvetal banned even in the Nintendo circuit?

But not in the April Friendly, which has unique rules.

My team is (Mega) Blastoise, Tyrantrum, Ferrothorn, Stunfisk, Swoobat and Pangoro. I've used all of them before, just not on the same team.

Does anyone feel like fightin

SO how feasible would it be to breed a Hidden Power Fire Froakie using a HP fire Ditto?

Not very. 30 hatched Froakies, only 2 with HP Fire, and both have Torrent.

I'm...Sorry to hear it, man.

Are you aiming for the highest I Vs for HP Fire, or just going with what you have?

... Z or the 3makes or Gen VII need to introduce a "Dream Capsule" or something so that Hidden Abilities are easier to get after breeding.

Breeding with a female with a HA has a higher chance to pass on a HA, since breeding prefers the mother's ability.

That would be heavenly, aaand we'll finally see DW Serperior, Feraligatr, and Dragalge in action; to see if they are as good as they seem.

Even with a female, there's still that shitty chance. Insurance just incase that thirty percent roll pulls through wouldn't hurt.

Here's another kind of capsule to add to the wish lsit; nature capsules.

There, Breeding's 1/6th easier now.

More like "personality override".

While we're on it, IV capsules. I don't care if they each cost 200 BP for an individual stat. Still completely worth it.

As of right now I can easily just deal with having any HP Fire Froakie, I just need it to also have protean. The real funny thing is those 2 Frokies were the only ones that had Torrent.

Direct IV manipulation would be amazing, but changing Natures doesn't seem like something that would fly from an in-story standpoint.

That's why it's on the wishlist; it doesn't fit with the "be yourself. use what you want" thing, because you aren't accepting your partner's personality, so fuck you.

I'm trying to decide whether brainwashing or abandoning thousands of newborn domesticated animals is the morally worse thing.

Well, you can Wonder Trade them and so this way they might get to someone who'd actually use them.

I've said this before, but: Item that changes the stats affected by the nature, but doesn't change the nature listed on the summary page. So you can make your Sassy Froakie plus-speed-minus-attack or whatever, but it'll remain nominally sassy.

Guess what Froakie number 39 hatched into?
