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
[/spoiler]
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…

Looking at the Smogon forums, Both MegaZards might be OU, BL at worst!
they need to do a mega tier
for Blaziken
Blaziken and Mewtwo Y. Kinda shocking how overpowered Blaziken has become. The best starter overall.
Mega Mawile.
Second Best Mega Ever. Blaziken being first.
My team in Y so far:
Chesnaught Lv. 40: Seed Bomb, Spiky Shield, Bite, Rollout
Charizard (Y) Lv. 40: Flame Burst, Fire Fang, Dragon Rage, Fly
Doublade Lv. 39: Shadow Claw, Night Slash, Aerial Ace, Swords Dance
Granbull Lv. 39: Charm, Bite, Lick, Headbutt
Lapras Lv. 34: Surf, Ice Beam, Body Slam, Rain Dance
*Notes: I’m planning on getting Hammer Arm on Chesnaught.
Granbull doesn’t get Rough Play(?) until Lv. 43, so no Fairy STAB until then.
Lapras has yet to get Thunderbolt.
Mega Charizard Y is overpowered as fuck.
Would Foul Play be good for Mega Mawile?
not with intimidate
Mine has Hyper Cutter.
if it already has sucker punch then no. other wise yes
Maybe. It can hurt Excadrill with that now.
Where do you get the Eviolite?
Up yo bumhole.
lawlchespins
4th gym in a building have seen 70 coastal pokemon I believe
70? Dang……
I might be wrong about that can’t remember. I know it’s the city of 4th gym.
Well I’m there XD
talk to every moving person (and alive)
Can’t find it.. Is it in the other part of Courmine City?
most likely
It’s actually in Shalour City, where you get the Mega Ring. Just looked it up.
Seems Pokemon Amie effects don’t work while in Mega form.
Seems fair, IMO.
Oh well, not like Mega Mawile has to do much dodging when it slaughters everything in its path.
Yeah, they are too overpowered to actually tell XD
I haven’t used megas yet so I don’t know…
My Mega Mawile hasn’t had any Amie effects even though its max Affection. Also, with other Pokemon after the battle I can swipe the touch screen and a hand will appear petting the Pokemon. Doesn’t work with Mega Mawile.
hmm interesting
The remix of Emotions in this game is heart breaking and beautiful. ;__;
agreed
I’m just waiting to hear the Hoenn gym leader theme with 3DS trumpets. The B/W2 version was a massive disappointment.
I liked it, but trumpets could have made it much better.
The part with the shift to the flute? Ugh, doesn’t fit at all with the theme. Completely kills the mood.
BW2 disappointed me also….also champion theme….
Am I the only one who didn’t think BW2 was a disappointment? 🙁
Oh i meant the music for BW2 hoenn….BW2 was fine. I disilked BW the most.
Ahh. Thank goodness. XD
They nailed the Hoenn Trainer theme, even though it wasn’t in the game, it was on the ROM. Similar to when they had unused music from G/S/C on Ruby and Sapphire when they were testing the soundfont.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uj-mWbvfBfc
No, it had plenty good remixes. Like the G/S/C Champion theme, the Sinnoh Gym Leader, Cynthia’s theme, etc. But they screwed the pooch with Hoenn.
Sinnoh Gym Leader they improved vastly! I hate the original one, but BW2 version was beautiful!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4K-uLejBnpU
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vcuRkzitpYI
The Hoenn Champion theme wasn’t butchered as much as the Hoenn Gym Leader theme was imo.
I got a fracture
the pokemon
LOL i thought the same as TC
For a minute I thought you hurt yourself xD
xD
What’s your favorite battle track in the series so far? Mines easily Colress Battle!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q4UTKk5eF1c
route 10 BW
One of my faves as well 😀
Rival encounter music. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OdbCwrVjlig
Wait, do you mean B/W or the entire Pokemon series?
Entire series. Including spin offs.
Oh, in that case, without question my favorite: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBVwtashteQ
I love love LOVE when the main melody repeats at 0:27, if you listen with headphones, you can hear an 8-bit tune playing something different than the melody, but it fits so perfect.
Just a question, but what did you think of this theme?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3hKjfYcPb1U
Needs more brass, but still really like it. I love when the song gets kickin at about 0:29 haha. Much more distinct there than the original.
Yeah. Did a great job recreating the Hoenn experience. MOAR trumpets could be cool, but it has the mixture of the feelings of Hoenn and Johto.
And someday, I hope to hear something like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3oqhsQnDkdw
3DS could easily handle it. I know that for a FACT.
including X/Y?
Yep. Everything. Including future titles that have yet to be revealed…. XD
Oh then that completely changes everything.
X/Y: Everything….I can’t choose
Do you have to catch the legendary to progress through the game?
I’m not sure, but I’ve read it’s extremely easy to catch anyways. Able to be caught in a Quick Ball easy.
I don’t want catch it. So I can listen to it’s battle theme forever. And I have this habit of preserving legendaries at their location.
But these legendaries have 31 IVs in 3 random stats!
but…but…music
But….but….youtube 🙂
I found the youtube ones are not as good quality as headphones on 3DS
You can battle Zygarde!
so I guess I have to catch xerneas…No I’ll kill it so it’ll respawn after beating E4
wait it’s not possible…..ughhhhh
Nah, I know what you mean. I’m gonna be sad when I hear Sycamore’s theme in the game for the last time. Just like Alder’s :'( How I wish Alder’s theme played before challenging him at the Pokemon League 🙁
I mean, this is simply a masterpiece: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KE1iXYzRmw
Naow listen to dis
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnbEtq3Y_bg
I think this has become a music fest.
Pretty nice! Some Mystery Dungeon game?
Yesh. One of the best plot lines in gaming history, and a soundtrack to boot!
It’s easy to catch because it wants to help you. It felt like somewhat of a rehash of B/W. Otherwise, rather awesome.
Do we know of any other Dual Type moves besides Flying Press (Shiftry’s worst nightmare)?
FREEZE DRY
Confirmed or Hopeful thinking?
Wait, I’m thinking of that Kyurem move, nevermind!
Confirmed. http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/other_pokemon/#Aurorus
Sorry, I was thinking Ice Burn/Freeze Shock lol.
that’s not dual type technically its just 2x to water
And is super effective against Dragons and stuff.
what dual typing would you give freeze dry? Flying Press has in it’s description that it’s both flying and fighting but what about freeze dry?
It can technically count as a Dual Type move, but you are right.
Does Hawlucha get double STAB from Flying Press?
nope
Oh thank God! That’d be so broken!
Hawlucha unburden flying gem acrobatics with sword dance high jump kick and roost…..
It’s powerful!
I’m not denying that! It’s been the toughest Pokemon for me to face so far in X/Y. I’m just so glad it’s not even more powerful with double STAB xD
thank fully it’s base atk is low
92 Base Attack isn’t that low.
compare with dragonite or any pseudo legendary yes….92 vs 134 and higher. plus conkel, darmanitan, archeops etc
Well, yeah. But it’s pretty high for many other full evolved pokes.
It is O_O I would’ve never realized that seeing as how it’s kicked my ass.
Well not really kicked my ass, but been more of a pain in the ass.
Not thankfully. I want Hawlucha to be the most useful thing in the world because i adore Hawlucha. He served me well through the game though. Has a good set of moves. Roost is very nice to have.
Just encountered a Horde Battle against Pelistorm.
I had a horde of pumbloom earlier!
Just visited the Museum in Lumiose. There’s a painting of Mr. Briney and Peeko! I saw it and I thought of when Chuggaaconroy did some voice acting xD http://youtu.be/KoROrXOfbcE?t=1m45s
I’m sorry but remember Deoxys’s battle theme?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vvbU64EbFM0
Prepare to cry.
That was one of the best battle themes imo
You like the remix? And it is one of the best themes of Gen. 3
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w12R_PmXHEM
I forgot to put this one in the first comment. meow
Meh, 2 minutes of buildup for the actual tune is overkill.
Are you Simon Cowell? lol
Nope, I just don’t like drawn out intros.
I like them, if done correctly, like this one. Sounds like a battle between Mewtwo and Deoxys IMO.
When I saw that I was like HOENN CONFIRMED but then I remembered that the game references almost every generation of Pokemon.
Just found shiny Weepinbell in horde battle! 🙂
I finally understand now why those houses in geonsage town don’t have doors….
Oh gamefreak getting lazy here I see…
What?
can’t spoil plot for you 😉
Ohhh, yes please don’t! 🙂
O-O
It all makes sense.
Anyone willing to trade their hidden ability Ivysaur (or bulba or vena) for my Hidden ability Charmeleon?
some one just gave me an O-power on the perfect battle….team flare boss
I’ve got a shiny Froakie!!
What color is it?
@Dominic sorry only saw your comment now. I have PKRS ready 🙂
Any thoughts on the Strange Souvenir?
http://www.serebii.net/itemdex/sprites/strangesouvenir.png
Well it’s not from Kanto – Unova so new region hopefully soon
7th gen confirmed, begin speculation
any one have FC
4210-4808-7585
1907-8131-0200
How do I make Pikachu learn Iron Tail on Pokémon X and Y?!
This place is abandoned…
I know 🙁 I feel so lonely
If anyone has any Y Mega Stones they could trade me, it would help a lot
I have Charizardite y right now if you want it, but not any others.
What would you want for it? (I don’t have much)
Could I trade a haunter with charizardite y to you and get the gengar back? My fc is 0619-4072-9457 and my name is NICLASC.
Yeah, that’d be fine (sorry I fell asleep) 2878 – 9575 – 8471 is mine, hopefully I’ll be on in about 6-ish hours at 12GMT
Ok. I’ll be online again in
about 5 hrs.
I’m on now if you are…?
Oh, I was on a
3G phone
Dw, we’ll work somin out soon
Ok. Will you be on in 2 hours? I was wrong about my earlier estimate.
Hahahah, this is difficult, what timezone are you?
Lol, yeah. I’m in the mountain time zone, so I guess you guys are 7 hours after us. Maybe we could trade around 10 p.m. your time on Thursday? That’s what I’m thinkin’ might work.
10pm my time on Thursday, I’ll mark it on the calendar ^^
OMG, I’M SO SORRY. ANOTHER thing came up (Dryland training for ski team from 2:45-4:30 my time)
Dw, no hurry, just gimme another time when it’s reasonable for you and me
Ok, great!
Can you trade right now??
I can do right now!
Sweet!… I’m on again
Reece is my IG name, you’ve added me right?
2878 – 9575 – 8471
Thank you so much!!!
You to, if you have either the Heracronite/Aggronite, that would help as well (last 2/28 needed)
OK. I don’t have those yet, though. Hopefully, I might get them soon
Well they’re post game anyway
Yeah. EDIT: Why do you want all of the mega stones? Just so that you have them all? Just wondering
Basically, partially yeah and partially to have all the perfect Nature/EVd ones in case I might wanna battle online, tbh, I’m just a collector
Oh, who’s your favorite Mega?
I like M.Mawile cause awesome typing, M.Scizor looks badass and M.Lucario (aka my favourite Pokemon now mega)
so does anyone has a ghost or dragon friend safari
