Where do you watch replays of other peoples battles? X|
You can't do it until you've beaten the Champion. You'll then receive an item called the Vs. Recorder when you arrive in Kiloude City, which you can only reach in the post-game. You access it from the Key Items pocket of your Bag. You select it, choose Use, then hit the code button to input the code. Likewise, whenever you complete a battle online, you'll be asked whether you want to save your video. You can save up to 100, and you can upload 12 to share with others at a time. Uploading them provides a code. :)
 
SkullHydra, your team is too cool for school with shiny Trevenant and shiny Aegislash. Also, dat Mega Aggron.

Meanwhile, RAC had a Volcarona and I -always- loving seeing those. Thanks to Imposter Ditto, I got to see two! Such a beautiful Pokémon!
Thanks. Lol. I'm pretty happy with it. And while I know it didn't seem that way in the battle you just watched, that Trevenant is actually quite the beast as well. I've had it hard stall some people.

Here's another battle I did earlier today against a friend of mine, where that Trevenant trolled him: AZ9W-WWWW-WWW2-H3HM
 
So I just got wonder traded a Bunnelby nicknamed Obama. Ha.

Oh, and why are people acting like Japanese players only give out gold? I got plenty of duds from them.
 
Forfeit, and then commit seppuku!

That's right, every time you beat a Japanese player, the blood is on your hands.

Those guys are hardcore.
Well I definitely don't have much blood on my hands yet haha.

Just had the best match in awhile on the Battle Spot with a Japanese player, it was really close. Ended up being down to my Mega Mawile vs his Rhyperior. Unfortunately he got me as I hit him with an Iron Head and he was holding a Weakness Policy, then Earthquake :( it was really close, both of us in the red and on our last pokemon. That's the kind of battle I like.

That sounds like a legit battle. I haven't battled anyone using a Rhyperior yet. I wasn't aware it was actually a competitive Pokémon. Lol.

It's god tier if you're using a trick room team. Low speed, can take a hit, hits like a truck and has insanely powerful (and versatile moves) moves.

Great, thanks buddy!

Need to finish, over 40 hours
at the secret lab with the legendary atm
! :)
 
Thanks for the safari! Caught a Fletchinder.

Incidentally, is it incredibly difficult to find a male Pyroar? I only saw female ones! Over and over and over again! Crazy.
Males are 25%, so not that rare.
Oh my god it worked for the pokemon I needed.

Question for people here. Should I continue doing that reject/save breeding thing or do I do it like I used to? Which was get a bunch of eggs and just run around.
Rejecting saves space and you can only attempt it if you already have plenty of viable mothers and fathers.

I generally dislike it since I like raising my egg counter.

It seems to be the way to go, saves space and time. Unless you want a shiny, then just do it the old way.
 
When should I evolve my shiny Floette?

How does the line play btw? Hard for me to judge if I'm not traveling the region with one in my party.
 
...and fourth disconnect in a row. Literally as soon as his last pokemon fainted. Why? It's never the Japanese people either, they'll always at least forfeit.
Saves time. Do battle videos still just cut out at that point though? That's what annoys me about running from a battle. The battle video just ends without saying anything so to the casual viewer it's not obvious how it ended.
 
uhh....

I saw a random Zapdos, but it fled before I did a single thing? lolwat?

I guess I should level up Wobbuffet then.
 
Hoo, boy. Been breeding, breeding and breeding for my ideal Trick Room 'Mons. I never did do IV breeding until this generation, so at least I started on the easiest gen.

I like the idea of a Dusknoir in Trick Room with Weakness Policy. It's probably not strong enough to pull it off consistently, but I'll have to give it a shot.


Speaking of Dusknoir, pretty much all of the Pokemon I'm trying to breed for Trick Room all require evolution via trading. After breeding, I'll have to grind for the evolution items.

Nah, that's how you do it this time. You have to see it twelve times before you can then capture it in the Sea Spirit's Den.
 
found this way to reset the EV

Yep, I actually raised a Rhyperior in Gen 4 -- EV trained it and everything. Didn't know about IVs at the time, though, so I don't know if it's full potential. But when set up with Speed Boost Ninjask -- Substitute, Swords Dance, and Baton Pass the speed and attack boosts to Rhyperior -- he was unstoppable! :O

This time around, I want to try putting Trick Room on Carbink, and set up Rhyperior with Reflect, Light Screen and Trick Room. Oh, and give him Assault Vest, as well! :O
 
Trying to breed a good Joltik. Going for Timid with Compound Eyes.

Does this sound like a good build?

YEAH! Zygarde in a Premier Ball. http://i.minus.com/iArK8fIzBm162.jpg

that wont effect
you need to encounter him , 10 times before he goes to a cave

This happened to me with an Articuno. Thought I was going crazy.

Oh, I see. That's a bit much! Guess I'll hunt him down later.
 
Grinding Battle Maison for some BP to buy items.

After that, I think I'll be ready to tackle some online. I can't think of anything else I'd like to breed right now.

I know your Trevenant is good. OHKOs happen to all of us, though. :)

I'll check out that video tomorrow. Looking forward to it. :)
 
So my Gengar is basically wrecking everything I come across

Shadow Ball
Thunderbolt
Venoshock (best attack animation in the game?)
Dazzling Gleam

I have both STAB moves, Dazzling Gleam because Fairy gets some useful type coverage, and Thunderbolt for flying/water coverage. Unbelievably fun to just destroy everything.

I have six badges now. I'm sad that Team Flare is more whiny and annoying than anything. Feels like a step back after Gen 5 where the villains felt dangerous.

The disparity between Team Flare and its leader is massive. It's almost like they're two separate organizations with very different goals.

One is a made of a bunch of crazy cult fanatics while the other is a bunch of rich hipsters, what did you expect?
 
Kinda late to the party, but anyone have a Ditto friend safari I can register really quick? I believe I have a dragon safari. Dragonair and forgot what else.
 
Oh, and why are people acting like Japanese players only give out gold? I got plenty of duds from them.
I've had a mix of duds and gold from everyone. Typically when my trades are more towards the dud end (volbeat/illumsie rejects) I get the gold from them.

I think the best I got was a Torchic with 31/x/31/31/31/31 and...Jolly and blaze. I can see why it went on the wonder trade pile...

I also liked the Adamant Beldum (1 perfect IV...got them up to 3 now...).
 
VICTORY!



Meet Kurger, the shiny Froakie.

Timid nature, and fortunately inherited Protean from his mother!

His IVs are
31/x/31/31/31/31

EDIT: Massive thanks to Mother Green for helping me get a foreign parent and Hitsukara for the Friend Safari where I caught Kurger's ancestor :)

Saw this just now. (Searching your own name, heh.) Congrats! I'm using the father competitively. ;)
 
So is super training supposed to be impossible or is it just me

Because I've tried the Venusaur balloon a few times and my Doublade is way too slow and I can't aim for shit. This honestly has to be the dumbest thing in the game.

Are Joltiks only in Safari or can you find them in the wild?

You can find Galvantula in the Safari, not in the wild I'm afraid. Did you want one? I'm (failing) to breed the above build at the moment, so I have a few with random IVs. (I'll be online in half an hour).

If you are giving them away then yeah I will take one. :)

I can give a Brave Honedge with near to perfect IVs if you are interested.
My boxes are kinda a mess though so I might have to search for a good one first ;p

My FC is in my profile.

That would be fantastic, but I fear that would be overcompensating me lol. These things have like 1, maybe 2 perfect IVs.

My FC is in my profile too.

It's cool! I am just completing the cycle. I just got some awesome Honedges from Anilusion here on GAF and have been breeding them now with some of my own at an attempt to get a Shiny. ;)

So I have tons of near perfect Honedges atm. They should all have 3-5 perfect IVs and I have dozens at this point.

Anyone else who wants any can send me PMs. Once I get my Shinyi
t's never happening is it?
I am going to dump the rest on Wonder Trade. Hah.
 
Second shiny ever! Ran into it while hunting Ditto. Almost ran away from it instinctively.


If you guys need good Joltik let me know. I have a few left over all with the right nature, ability and 4 IVs @ 31.
