Should give Origins a watch. Only Pokemon cartoon I've watched in a decade. It's pretty cool.

Streets date for a video game are an extremely silly thing to be moral about. What would you have done when it came through your door on Thursday, left it sealed until Saturday morning?

obviously not, but like i said, i have(had) no way of obtaining it early, so why not be moral about it?

The Torchic distribution is already running and the servers are up and packed full of players. If Nintendo cared that much why not switch them off until Saturday?

" 'sure, lets not make more money off of the earlier-than-intended release day' says Nintendo" Thats my answer to that

also, its late, and im tired, and i cant think

I'm waiting for the English dub, which I believe is about a week before the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary special/season 4 premiere of MLP: FIM

I've been hearing a lot about the game having a ridiculous amount of filtered words. Some guy on /vp/ tried to name their Chespin Spike and it wasn't accepted because "pik" means penis in some country no one gives a shit about. I'll be severely disappointed if I can't name my character Chdonga.

Also which has better exclusives X or Y? I guess I'm at an advantage by getting it late.

Man, I'm loving the fact that Exp. Share is now a key item that can be enabled/disabled at will and affects your whole team.

Also, when I walked out of GameStop during the midnight release with my copy I played this using my phone's YouTube app

It's hugely overpowered. Turn it off, I was 15 levels ahead of the competition by the second gym. Game is a joke with it on. Still probably the easiest Pokemon without it.

I hate it that you only move in 8 directions and you move on a grid. I've gotten used to it by now, but I was expecting it to play more like Pokémon Colosseum.

It looks like the rate has been raised. Obviously they're still very rare, but people actually trying for them have been finding them much quicker than in previous gens. I'm thinking about doing some Masuda Method once I've beat the game. Can't really start proper competitive team building until I can migrate my stuff from last gen (mostly my army of dittos of various natures), so it's as good a way of any to fill the time.

Hey, I'm like 35 hours in and haven't seen one. Still rare as fuck.

In other news, my cousin got Pokerus in like his second hour of play, so I'll be getting that off him when I see him tomorrow. Wonder if it works with super training.

Apparently people are experiencing a "glitch" where once they catch a Pikachu in the first forest, that's all they find. Apparently the whole "certain abilities increase chance of finding specific types when it's at the first slot in the party" trait added in Gen III got buffed a little too much. So if you wanna get a light ball or a shiny Pikachu early in the game, that's the easiest method.

Also, at the gate that separates Shalour City and Route 12, there's an NPC sitting on a bench and if you talk to her, she says "Pokemon sind im Pokeball. Ich sitze auf dem Stuhl.". When translated from German, it says "Pokemon are in the Pokeball. I sit on the chair."

Made me chuckle that they did that.

So according to serebii, houndour/houndoom are exclusive to X, but the mega evolution stone for them is exclusive to Y...Same with a couple others, but vice versa. What's up with that?

What's all this super training? What is the difference?

It's a minigame that gives EVs to your Pokemon and lets you track how many they have. Just an alternative to the traditional EV training method, seems to be faster if you don't have Pokerus and an EV-boosting item, probably slower if you do.

Do we get to choose where to EV's go?

Yes, there's 6 different minigames, one for each stat.

Actual game is the same, just have different titles telling you what EVs they'll give.

There's no such thing as IV training. They're fixed when the Pokemon is caught/hatched. That's the point, they're unchangeable to make even Pokemon that have been trained exactly the same way different from each other.

You breed tons of Pokemon to get good IVs on the one you eventually choose to train. IV breeding, EV training.
