UPD: We’ll continue our coverage starting next week. Most of the staff have beaten the game and expect opinions article to pop up the coming days. My very own review will hit around Wednesday. Also, keep your eyes out tomorrow October 20th for a very special announcement regarding Pokejungle. It’s the project I’ve been teasing for a while (unrelated to the other mysterious project). What could it be? The first person guessing right in the comments (I won’t tell if it’s right or wrong though) will earn a special prize. See you tommorow. ~Daedardus~

Story

  • The Laverre City Gym is run by Leader Valerie, who specialises in Fairy Type Pokémon, she awards you the Fairy Badge and TM99 Dazzling Gleam. She uses the following Pokémon
    • Mawile Lv.38
    • Mr. Mime Lv.39
    • Sylveon Lv.42
  • After defeating the Gym your friends tell you to meet them in the Poké Ball Factory to the north, Shauna and Trevor are then chased away by the Team Flare Grunt who was previously blocking the gates to the factory
  • When you enter the factory Team Flare are occupying it, Serena says she will take care of the first Grunt and you should head further into the factory, where more Grunts are waiting to challenge and dispose of you. NOTE: The Poké Ball Factory features 3D
  • A woman in a small room on the top left of the walk way will heal your Pokémon for you. You must reverse the direction of the conveyor belt so you can access a room in the top left of the walkway. When you access the room Team Flare Admin and Scientists are found harassing the President of the Poké Ball Company
  • First Team Flare Admin challenges you to a battle, followed by a double battle with you and Serena VS Team Flare and Celosia and Bryony. When you defeat them the President will award you with a Master Ball and a Big Nugget. Before you leave the factory your friend appear again and tell you that Dendemille Town is the next place you should visit. Finally, as you exit the factory a Holo Clip is received with an emergency announcement that the Poké Ball Factory has been attacked
  • As you progress along Route 15, you will eventually receive a Holo Clip from Lysandre, who poses several questions about the theories behind Mega Evolution. Even further along the route the player can explore the Lost Hotel
  • When you enter Dendemille Town Professor Sycamore and Dexio appear and begin talking about Xerneas or Yveltal and then leave. Trevor then appears hoping to have caught Sycamore, but then travels to the Frost Cavern in search of Pokémon
  • Next the player heads north to the Frost Cavern, where they encounter a Mamoswine that seems to sense something is amiss in the Cavern

Dae’s notes:

[spoiler]

  • The hairstylist in Lumiose only has three (male) options the first time you visit. Very Short, Short and Medium. If you get around ten haircuts, she’ll comment how fabulous you are consequent times you visit and you’ll unlock a new hairstyle: Medium Perm. There are bound to be more haircuts, but they are kinda hard to find. I experimented a bit and will let you know when I found out more.
  • Not sure if we mentioned it already but there must be a coupon for shopping clothes somewhere. Some people mention it but I have no idea where to get it. The plot thickens…

  1. Hey guys I’m pre victory road now and trying to decide ehat my final team should look like.

    Pokemon I already decided to bring:
    Delphox
    Garchomp
    Gengar
    and maybe Tyrannitar.

    Any ideas for the other spots in my team?

  2. A new bug / glitch have been found in Pokemon XY!

    This new glitch is called “Pokemon Albino” this bug caused the Pokemon to lose their normal color which made them look black and white (Check the images below). It rarely happens but if you come across this bug just save and turn off the games and the Pokemon should return back to normal appearance.

    Aside from this, someone encountered a bug when using wonder trade. If you receive a Pokemon that evolves by trading, and learns a move after evolving, the move you got rid of and the new move it just learned both disappear.

    Nintendo and Gamefreak are currently working on a patch to fix the”The Lumiose City Saving Glitch”, “The Frame Rate Per Second Error” and “The Pokemon Albino”.

    EDIT: Some Pokemon such as Malamar apparently have attack animation errors.

    • The FPS problem isn’t a glitch or bug, it’s a major design flaw.
      They can’t magically fix it with a 0.5MB patch, it would require a whole new engine. Why do you think the 3D is mostly inaccesible when you know some effects clearly were intended to be in 3D?

    • With all of these problems it makes me wonder if we even should have had a worldwide launch. I know these problems are the worst glitches in the world, but still.

      I suppose growing pains are to to expected in the jump to 3D. I bet by the next set of 6th gen games things will be moving a little more smoothly.

      • The Japanese typically have these glitches. America and other countries fix them, so the games seem perfect. But everything should run smoothly by the time Z or R/S/E remakes or sequels come out.

        • Ah I see. So like I thought. Honestly can’t wait for Z. I’ve missed the “full package” Pokemon game. Black and White 2 were pretty cool though.

          • Most of these bugs I really don’t care about. But Lumiose has my favorite overworld theme, and it’s so awesome! I really hope they fix the bug soon.

          • Lumiose has such great music. Also the whole game! But yeah these bugs aren’t much of an issue. It’s not hindering my enjoyment since I haven’t turned my 3DS off in quite a while.

  3. So i’m a noob at breeding, and i would love to breed my own shiny froakie with the ability Protean and with decent iv´s in speed and sp.attack.
    Can someone expert in the matter give me some guide lines on what i must do? Some sort of tutorial for this, i know it’ll be painfull and it’ll take some time, but i really want to breed one on my own.

  4. So I ordered the Strategy Guide a while back. It looks really nice. It’s hardcover and it’s fun to flip through, but it’s not really useful for much. Getting through the game it seems helpful, but it seems like Nintendo wasn’t letting them share enough information. When showing the teams of Gym Leaders, it named Pokemon like Avalugg, but didn’t show a picture for them. It also doesn’t mention a single thing about post game, and apparently Kiloude City and Zygarde don’t exist.

  7. Currently fighting drasna and I’m so nervous because I’m trying to beat the E4 on my first try. But things are looking grim with the bad amount of healing items I have.

  8. It’s weird how xatu flies in battle. I mean, I think it’s cool and I like it, but I’ve never seen a xatu actually fly before.
