Alright then. Starting to make my first semi-competitive team. Mega Venasuar is first up.

First to breed for a female, then breed it with a Amooaguss to learn Giga Drain.

Then I'll make competitive versions of my current Y team.

Mess with them until the metagame shapes up more.


Cool, im goin to start as well tonight! I'll be your first opponent (and your first lost

BTW do we know that we can do 6v6 with friends, not just random battles?

3v3 just isn't as fun


6vs6 of course for single battles! Just need some time! Im making my first pokemon (breeding) and i have to collect those BP to get items!

Yeah I've only gotten Life Orbs so far.  Need to go for some scarfs next.

Any idea on where to get gems?



good questions i haven't even thought of it! maybe caves?


I might want to get into compettive battling for X and Y. Any tips?

Anyone connected to Pokemon Global Link yet? If so (and you beat the Elite Four) show your team from the site!

How can you do that? I cant copy the URL

I asked before but I didn't quote you properly, were you after a noibat?  I have some spare if you want one.

O that was some time ago, back when I couldn't figure who to the alst spot on my team pre-E4.

I decided to just 5 man the E4 anyways. 

Oh right no worries, it looks like we used largely the same ingame team also.

Are you guys using super training or the traditional method?

I found abusing hoard battles in victory road for floatzel a fantastic alternative to noivern ST. 10 ev per battle, would be 20 ev id i had pokerus.

Smogon just found out that if a pokemon is holding Destiny Knot, then 5 IV's are inherited instead of the usual 3 from both parents.

That makes breeding easier.

Luckly I have a perfect ditto on BW2, and a semi perfect as well (0 IV in speed for TR pokes).

So I noticed two things after adding a whole bunch of you here:

 

  • Everyone got Pokemon Y. I went for X because I wanted a different version from my friend, and didn't care about the details (first Pokemon since Gen 1), but whatever. Charizard X looks badass and I got the freakin Deer God, yo.
  • Everyone went male trainer. As soon as I saw zettai ryouiki on the girl, well, it was no longer a decision. Don't judge!

 

(actually I've dumped maybe 8 hours on clothes stuff alone)



I can't get a trainer fight which has swirlix on it for the life of me >_>. It's basically the only exclusive poke left to trade into my game up until gym 7.



Current PC Build

CPU - i7 8700K 3.7 GHz (4.7 GHz turbo) 6 cores OC'd to 5.2 GHz with Watercooling (Hydro Series H110i) | MB - Gigabyte Z370 HD3P ATX | Gigabyte GTX 1080ti Gaming OC BLACK 11G (1657 MHz Boost Core / 11010 MHz Memory) | RAM - Corsair DIMM 32GB DDR4, 2400 MHz | PSU - Corsair CX650M (80+ Bronze) 650W | Audio - Asus Essence STX II 7.1 | Monitor - Samsung U28E590D 4K UHD, Freesync, 1 ms, 60 Hz, 28"

How many Pokemon are there in the game in total now? How many can you catch in the wild without trading?



5 years of breeding later, I finally got a female serene grace Togepi, so now after I evolve it, it should only take another 3 years to get a serene grace Togepi with an ideal nature, woohoo!!!...

718 Total

By not trading or doing friend safari you can get 436 pokes (includes subtracted version exclusives and starters).

By trading and doing Safari Zone that number is over 500.

The rest will open up in December with Pokemon Bank.
