PR Video

You are able to film a 10 second PR video in Lumiose City. You can edit each second individually with the following options:

  • Background
  • Poses
  • Facial Expressions (eyes and mouth)
  • Music
  • Sound Effects
  • Pokémon (put one of your party members in it)
  • Effects
  • Camera Angle
  • Text
  • Reset

You may also put make up on your characters, this includes the facial hair, but unfortunately facial hair cannot be worn outside of the PR studio. You also get a lens case here so you can change your eye colour in any changing room.

Berry Farm

  • Plant and water berries like previous games.
  • Put 3 berries in the compactor to make a mulch. This will help the planted berries grow.
  • Mulch will have a different effect depending on what berries are used.
  • The berry trees will wither and die eventually, so make sure you pick the berries when they’re ripe!
  • Weeds can grow where berries are planted, so make sure you pull them out.
  • Pokémon may be attracted to the berries, so defeat them when they appear!

Critical Capture returns. When the ball shakes in the air you will have one.

  1. For people who live in the UK like myself.

    GAME stores are releasing X/Y a DAY EARLY. They’ve been given the go ahead so get down there already if you love near one.

  6. here’s a question did any of you preorder through gamestop? if so did you have it shipped to you? and they took the money but gave it back to you?

    Reply
  7. Reviewers and Leakers have the games for over a week and tell us there is no post game, Serebii has it for 2 days and finds a bunch of stuff to do. That’s why I love Serebii’s coverage. No one else does it that thoroughly.

    Reply
  8. Say listen to this Serebii said: Found a new Mega Stone. Won’t say what it is yet, but the Pokémon I’m
    hunting for is just not appearing. Have found the roaming legendary in
    this route twice while looking for it.

    Reply
  9. Seems like shiny encounter rate is actually higher, especially since many of these players encountered one without progressing too far into the game.

    What do you the shiny encounter rate for XY is?

    I am going 1/1000.

    Reply
  10. I’m hoping for a Mega Shiftry, Ludicolo, Milotic, Clefable, Blissey, Roserade, Dusknoir, Golem, Vileplume, Bellossom and.. HYDREIGON. xD

    Reply
  11. So, how many more mega evolutions do we think we’re getting? So far, we’ve got 9 from Gen 1(11 if you count the X and Y forms of Charizard and Mewtwo), 2 from Gen 2, 7 from Gen 3 and 2 from gen 4. I’m thinking we’re going to see a few more from Gen 2 and 4, and there’s gotta be at least a couple from Gen 5.

    Reply
    • PLEASEE!!! but to be honest i don’t know how it could get much better. Serene grace is a great ability and it will probably be retyped fairy anyways, so what more? so stat increases could be nice, but would that make up for leftover or sitrus berry healing?

      Reply
  12. Could somebody please explain to me how the Vivillion patterns work? I’m from europe and my Spewpa evolved into a brown/orange vivillion called the continental form. Help!?

    Reply
  13. Okay so prior to what we originally thought..Eevee does NOT have to have MAX affection in Pokemon Amie to evolve into Sylveon. Mines just evolved with 3/5 hearts of Affection.

    Reply
  14. I hadn’t realised there was a new article. That’s why no one was commenting on the other….I just thought everyone went to school or work!

    Reply
  15. Yay finally got my game. Only thing I hate right now is that my region gets the standard Vivillon evolution.. goo thing you can trade XD

    Reply
  16. Serebii says he’s found a new Mega stone for a version exclusive he doesn’t have. Assuming the version exclusive list on Serebii is correct, that narrows it down to Cloyster, Manectric, Liepard or Throh.

    That’s assuming he hasn’t just found Tyranitarite that is, but he says he’s found Kangaskhanite and no Kangaskhan, so I don’t see why he’d be being coy about it if it wasn’t an unseen Mega.

    Reply
  17. Oh, Mr. Masuda, I am heartily sorry for having offended thee
    And I detest my former hate for Mega-evolutions
    Because I dread my ignorance, and now I just can’t resist their appeal.
    But most of all because I love thee
    I want so badly to be good.

    Amen.

  18. Werster is driving me CRAZY!! He keeps losing the fight with Korrina and refuses to catch another Pokemon! (He only has Quilladin and Wortortle)

    Reply
      • I don’t necessarily disagree, but I think they really want to promote connectivity more. The only thing is, if we only get one per game, as it kind of seems like, then that almost requires you to get both games, which is kind of lame, because whose going to trade away their ONLY Megastone of that Pokemon if they have no way of getting it back, unless they really don’t want it. If there is some way to get an additional Mega stone in each game through some way, then I don’t think it’s that big of a deal.

        Reply
        • Heh, that’s one of the reasons why I got both versions! Only…I just realized that without another 3DS, I can’t send anything to the other game until Pokemon Bank arrives in the US….

          Reply
        • are you trying to say that we only get one mega stone per pokemon per game?? as in 1 lucarionite and thats it, if we trade it its gone?! or do we have chances of finding the same stone.

          Reply
    • aha i see what gamefreak they want us trade the pokemon and see the mega evo i wonder if u can trade pokemon with the mega stone :3?

      Reply
  19. OK I hate you gamefreak….you take my two favorite pokemon and butcher them both….

    Mega Houndoom looks amazing but has a shitty ability
    Mega Manectric looks terrible but has an amazing ability

    -_-

    Reply
    • Actually, Serebii said that he got his Abra from the GTS, and seeing as how Japan’s already gotten their release, and many parts of the UK have as well….

      Reply
  20. Whoever gives me an Electrike, I’ll give them a Houndour. Please ;-;
    I have X, by the way. I really want to use a Manectric! 😀

    Reply
  21. So I just got the game this morning but I’m at work so I haven’t played it yet.
    The first thing you will notice after opening the game is that there is no intro…it goes straight to the start menu. But if you wait in the start menu, then the intro starts. I like this….less time for soft resetting.

    By the way since many of you will Soft Reset for their starter, including me.
    Soft Reset = L + R + Start + Select on the 3DS

    Reply
  22. I’m planning to use a Raichu on my team does anyone know how early you can get Pikachu and the thunderstone? I don’t want to have that annoying yellow rat in my team longer than necessary. #OrangeMasterRace

    Reply
  23. Anything you guys want me to take a look at? Not far in the game at all (spending time looking at everything and checking out wild Pokémon), but f I can do something, I will!

    Reply
  24. Sable is right guys. I’m glad the mega stones are in the game the pokemon is not found in. This would encourage us to get more friends on the 3ds to trade with!! Yay for connectivity!! 😀

    Reply
    • The only thing is they have to troll us*ME* by putting Tyranitite or whatever it’s called in Pokemon X after they gave me Tyranitar in Pokemon Y. Though, it seems a good number of these are post game too, so…

      Reply
  25. The biggest problem in my life right now is knowing when to evolve Helioptile…. i dont want to lose out on any cool moves since it likely wont learn much if anything once i evolve it 🙁

  26. I’m planning on getting Fennekin for my X playthrough and I’m wondering which nature I should get it. Im new to competitive battling. Delphox’s stats are:
    HP75

    Attack75

    Defense70

    Sp. Atk120

    Sp. Def90

    Speed100

    • Some Gamestops (Like mine) are having a Midnight Release. Others are opening an hour early tomorrow. And some aren’t doing anything special. Best to call up your Gamestop and ask 🙂

      • ok thanks, the gamestop that my order went to is doing it midnight but its like a 20 min drive so ill just pick it up in the morning from on my way to work.

  27. Idk if you guys know this already, but they’ve added the ribbons back! There’s now another screen for the things! Torchic has a Premier Ribbon. Unlike BW, they actually have the icon for said ribbon too!

    Hoenn confirmed?

  28. Does anyone know if the guidebook will have the Kalos Dex in the back like in the past? Because that would surely have the moveset for Chespin’s evolutionary line 😀

  29. I always thought pokemon contests were the best sub quests out of all the pokemon games but movies, musicals, etc were lame so i skipped those

  30. OMG I just saw Mega Houndoom!!!! Someone better trade me 😀
    Manectric looks crazy, not sure if I love it or not, but I love Manectric, so I will give the mega a chance; I need to see it in action!

  31. So apparently the Mega Stones for some Pokemon, not only are they version exclusive, they are also found ONLY in the post game… ;-;

  33. So I’m gonna make sure every pokemon I catch is female even starters. I need to know about egg moves….and ditto is available late game. If the guide has all the egg moves….then there’s no point. But I’ll try my best to create a data sheet of new egg moves when I get back from work

  34. This must be the hardest wait i have ever experienced for any game.
    The HYPE is to Intense!!!!!!
    cant believe that the game is releasing very close. It felt that i waited for years and im about to get my reward.
    Pokemon X I CHOOSE YOU!!!

  35. From serebii: It appears that starter Pokémon, such as the Kanto starters, can be found in Friend Safari.

    Doesn’t the Friend Safari have Pokemon with their Hidden Ability? :O

    Reply
  36. Off-topic, but can someone recommend me an in-game moveset for Kingdra in BW2? I would really appreciate it! 😀

    EDIT: It has a higher Sp. Attack stat.

    Reply
    • I might do one, especially if I get an X. The fun thing with a Nuzlocke in this game is we shouldn’t have to worry about running into the same pokemon route after route.

      Reply
    • I don’t find them enjoyable 🙁
      Though, monotypes are sorta my thing! Especially when we can create a type specialist, almost like our own gym leader.

      Reply
      • Which is why I’m doing a Dark Type run in this game. Aside from the fact I’ve never tried a Mono-Type run, there are finally enough Dark Types available all at once for me to do one.

        Reply
    • Not for the first game….there’s too much uncharted territory. Maybe after finishing the game. The game’s gonna feel fresh anyways. Nuzlocke is good when the game starts to feel a little stale.

      Reply
      • Well, it doesn’t have to be right away. I am playing the game normally when I get it. Other than time, the only obstacle in my way to X is, possible long lines at GameStop tomorrow.

        Reply
        • As long as you enjoy the experience it doesn’t matter how you play it. Nuzlocke for me was to make a game getting stale more exciting. But in this game….I’m going into research mode not nuzlocke mode.

          Reply
    • Scope Lens or the Life orb. Scope lens boosts the critical hit ratio by one stage, and with the slightly boosted power of a critical hit, it would go well together. However, life orb is recommended by me because that critical hit boost+life orb would be killer and it’s a great boost in both attack and sp. Attack.

      Reply
    • I thought i would but honestly and i really mean this….this game is LONG enough without having to grind on top of that and the level curve does eventually catch up around the 3rd gym. The EXp Share just helps yo keep your team a little more balanced.

      Reply
      • I always keep Pokemon in my team at the same level, or no more than two levels apart from one another (unless I’m training a lower level with a high-level team for back-up and type coverage XD)

        Reply
    • I am! It’ll be helpful later on but for my first play-through main team I’m definitely not using it. I will also be only using 3 random pokemon (from my main team) for each gym and (If I can) keep my levels on a lesser/similar level to the gym/trainers etc..

      Reply
  37. I noticed that most of the Megas shown by Serebii were female.. It’s probably nothing but yeah something that caught my eye haha

    Reply
  38. Half the people on my friend list are playing the games It feels like I’m the only one who hasn’t got it 🙁 I wish the e-shop would release the game already as I’m getting it from there after having to cancel my order with Amazon after they messed it up. Anyone else getting from (Uk) eshop?

    Reply
  39. I really really really want a Mega Houndoom! Do you guys think it’s easier to get one in Y (where you can find a Houndoominite) or in X (where you can find Houndoom itself)?

    Reply
  40. Critical hits now deal 1.5x damage, instead of 2x as in the previous 5 generations.

    I KNEW IT!!!!!

    That + Hydro Pump nerf completely explains the Politoed and Sylveon phenomena

    Reply
  41. I’m gonna wind up training my Chespin to level 50 before evolving it to see what moves it can learn, rather than take the chance by evolving it earlier and potentially missing out on moves only Chespin can learn xD

    Reply
  42. Female Meowstick can use a new move..Disarming Voice. Don’t know what type it is (Psychic, Fairy or Normal i think) its animation is some lover hearts and stars in a dust clowd shot from the mouth at the opponant. Not sure of the stats for it though.

    Reply
    • the reviewers don’t read between the lines like us pokefans…they probably never even found all of the mega stones yet and gave up…

      Reply
          • When reading most of the reviews it was so blatantly obvious that they didn’t give a crap about the games. It was as if some one just forced them to play the game and write about it.

          • I seems like they copied the descriptions from the back of the game…

            I mean I do it for college essays so I bet everyone does it to finish any assignment. None of these guys are that passionate or have the time as they have other reviews to write, plus the reviews came out on friday so they definitely BSed it to get home early.

        • Also, I haven’t been able to find too much on it, but isn’t the Battle Maison practically the Battle Frontier? Because I saw somewhere that they have at least 4 leaders, and winning 21 battles in a row to face them. Meaning yet ANOTHER thing all the complainers were cursing Gamefreak for not putting in the game, but are ACTUALLY in the game, just under a different name?

          Reply
  43. Right, I’m taking a break. Been searching around Route 7 for hours now. Other staff are still playing through but no one has caught up with me yet.

    Will be back soon, let me know if there’s anything you want to know and if I can answer I will!

    Reply
  44. So, while we await the fateful hour, I have a question.

    I’m don’t usually have much time for people who begin any post with “am I the only one?” on the internet, but this time I’m gonna give it a shot.

    I’m a 31 year old drunken mohawked old school punk rock fan who is also nuts for Pokémon. Internet… Am I the only one?

    Reply
  45. Soo, people who have the game…
    Did you also get a Pidgey encounter 2 steps into route 2?
    I saw a streamer get it, and now it happened on my game lol
    I wonder if it always happens?

    Reply
  46. Guys, for the people who have yet to have 3DS friend code, *cough Pokejungle Mods *cough* I will be getting out at 2:10 and be posting my friend code at around that time 🙂

    Reply
  47. Serebii confirms that the E4 does not have a level increase, but does anyone else find it suspicious that they all have a pokemon either rumored or confirmed to have a mega evo?

  49. X & Y have a really extensive post-game. Funny thing is that it’s actually the longest in a Pokemon game.

    That’s why you don’t freak out immediately without any confirmation of something too bad to be true.

    Reply
  50. Alright, during this lull, thought I’d ask for some opinions. I’ve bred in B2 as near to a ‘perfect’ Tyranitar in terms of IV that I can, all stats but defense and speed are 31, and the Defense looks to be 29 or so, so that should be fine, and well, I’m not running a Tyranitar who is meant to be super fast anyways. But, as I’m getting this guy ready when Pokebank goes live, but I’m having trouble with determining a new nickname. Traditionally, I call my Tyranitar “Ruin”, though I’m in the middle of ‘rebranding’ so I’m looking at a new nickname maybe. Would like to note, Godzilla is completely off the table, because I don’t like to nickname based on existing characters like that, as it as a result doesn’t seem to be my Pokemon so much as I’m basing it off of popular culture. But anywho, these are the nicknames that are on the table.

    Ruin
    Kaiser
    Kain/Kane
    Bane

  53. With all the new info we got in the these days, I can now say that I think X and Y are by far the best games in the series so far. They’re the reason I’m buying a 3DS. To be honest, Pokemon games were the only reason I ever bought a Nintendo portable console but that doesn’t mean I didn’t enjoy other games. Back to topic, X & Y are quite the amazing upgrade. Looking forward to playing with you guys online

  61. Just to hold me off until tomorrow, I’m gonna catch every Pokemon (if catchable) in B2/W2 that get a Mega Evolution so I can transfer them in December to X and Y! So far I have:

    Ampharos (Level 93) *

    Lucario (Level 92) *

    Tyranitar (Level 56)

    Gyarados (Level 48)

  65. I just seen a video of Greninja battling Mewtwo, and I have to say that Greninja has some pretty awesome battle animations! It looks like it is doing kuji-kiri (Ninja hand signs) when it does Extrasensory and Water Pulse, and when it does Night Slash it does this cool chop move. Mewtwo also looks super awesome when it does Aura Sphere!

    • Get delphox 🙂 it’s original, has a cool stick animation, is elegant yet cool and such a good comparison and change from all the awesome but masculine fire types in the past. However I may be biased, as apart from gen 1 and 2 where I chose squirrel and totodile, I’ve always gone with fire 😉

And to every single person here from all parts of the world, I wish you all the very best for your incredible and unforgettable Pokemon journeys for X and Y! I hope you’ll all be the very best, like no one ever was, catching them is only a test, but training is a huge cause. I hope you’ll all travel across the lands, searching far and wide, teach all the Pokemon to understand that the power is inside. Inside you all! Go everyone! Go and catch em all!!! POKEMON 😀

    Male Meowstic, Gogoat, Heliolisk, Furfrou, Malamar, and Aurorus

    Thoughts? Suggestions?

    Reply
      • Meowstic and Gogoat were candidates mainly due to the fact that I like them, I’ll probably get them on my first playthrough, but I probably won’t finish the game with them, I like Heliolisk cause I like reptiles and electric coverage would be nice, I heard furfrou was a defensive tank, which is ironic since its eloquent looking so that was definitely on my agenda

        • Go to the subway terminal, there is an Ace Trainer who will tell you what the best IV of that Pokemon is. If there are any at the same level, he’ll tell you that, and he’ll also tell you if it is average, above average, superior, or outstanding, which generally tells you how many points you have added up. I’m sure there are some other ways to tell, but if you are just going in game, that’s a good starting spot.

          Reply
          • My Litwick is lv. 19 and he said “This Pokemon has relatively superior potential overall” he also said its best potential lies in its HP “It can’t be better in that regard”

          • Hrm. Well, having perfect IV’s in HP is good, and it’s stats are probably mostly high, but breeding to get perfect IVs in Special attack would be good. Do you know the best ways to move stats down, or maintain a nature you want when breeding?

          • Well, don’t I need specific berries to reduce a stat? And I would have to have Ditto hold an Everstone.

          • You only use Berries when EV training, they have nothing to do with IV Breeding. And I guess the Ditto has a Modest Nature? So yeah, having everstone on it works. But to pass down stats, you need the power items. You have power lens, so you have that one, but for this particularly Pokemon, you wouldn’t want it on Litwick for breeding, because it would pass down whatever that special stat is, and it’s not 31, and it would never be 31. Putting the Power Weight, or whichever item gives EVs to HP, would be good to put on Litwick, as it will always pass down HP, which is at 31. This also gives you a measuring stick, because if you get anything else with 31, it will be mentioned in the same breath as the HP. I also use the little symbol markers on Pokemon to keep track of maximum IVs as well.

          • I (sort of) understand what you said, but I’m not trying to increase my Litwick’s HP, I want Sp. Attack. And I actually had to breed quite a few Litwicks to get a Modest one, so I didn’t use an Everstone. Since the Litwick hatched, all that it has battled was Litwick, with the help of my lv. 100 Chandelure obviously.

          • Yes I know, but having 31 IV’s in your HP is only going to help you. What that does though is it always will give you that stat for the purposes to inheriting stats, so that is one less stat you have to worry about. But my point is, you don’t ave 31 IV in Special Attack, so this process is to keep what you do have 31 IV in as you try to breed for 31 IVs in other stats.

        • There’s a gut on Battle Subway (an Ace Trainer I guess) that tells you which os your pokémon’s stats is the highest, he’ll say that “it can’t be better” (or something like that) if it has perfect 31 IV’s (the highest), you can also go in a battle and set the Litcwick’s level to 50 and use an IV calculator,

          Reply
  111. Some tips I kept track of:
    Soft Reset = L + R + Start + Select

    Unlike previous generations, after creating you first save file, there is NO new game option underneath continue. To do a new game you have to delete all of the save data first. In order to do that you have to do the following at the start menu:

    Press: B + Y + X + Up (On the D-Pad) to delete all of the save data

    Hope this is helpful. I tried it myself.
