[spoiler]

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.

    • 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…

          • 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?

  6. 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!

  7. 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?

  11. 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?

  14. 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 🙂

  15. 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?

  22. 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.

  24. 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
    *any other suggestions you might have*
