good game Exe
thank you, you aren’t too bad yourself! 🙂
you and your full fairy force have earned my respect…for now
and you got lucky with those flinches
haha togekiss’s paraflinch strategy remains strong to this day! seriously though, paralyze combined with serene grace air slash leaves I think only a 30% chance the opponent can move… someone correct me if im wrong!
Diggersby scares me…
I love my Diggersby…
It have huge power?
no pick up…
Huge Power would be damn sexy
I have one, wanna trade?
male or female?
4038-5998-9262
What pokemon you have?
lets see…
i gots all kinds of pokemon.. yet none with hidden
0473 8753 9731 my friend code
Do you have clefairy?
earthen that was awesome! I think I’ve decided to use diggersby on my normal team when the time comes!
Well you personally saw Diggers’ power he is a beefy bunny with freaky ears!
diggersby reminds me of some rich fat guy….
he makes me think of those old cartoons where the construction workers do the “Wolf whistle” at the ladies passing by. and his ears make me think of digging machines. overall another brilliantly designed normal type!
lololol
yes he does xD
Hes one of the most “funny” pokemon
dude earthenwarrior, your friend safari is ground. that’s awesome! fits you nicely
Like I said, Fate has destined me to be one with the Earthen Pokemon…
Nice. LOL, something to get my mind off the leak sent to me stating Pokemon Z is the last Pokemon game in the series, EVER. Cried so hard.
ok earthen and I had a battle, it was a blast! I forgot to buy klefki’s held item I was in such a rush to battle haha
Taking a break from consecutive fishing, gonna go inquire more into Pokemon Z, the information a leaker sent me.
.
.
.
CHECK THIS BULLSHIT!! I CRIED AT THE END!
– Pokemon Z will be releasing worldwide once again, and will release in Q4 2014. The main legendary is Zygarde, as probably guessed before. Xerneas and Yveltal, along with Zygarde get new formes, yet to be announced or confirmed by any leaker.
– Pokemon Z take place in Kalos, which is actually three times the size of what was known in X and Y.
– The game is extremely long and very detailed. The overworld is now in 3D, the trainer sprites as well. Professor Sycamore has teamed up with Korrina, now Professor Korrina, to research more on Mega Evolution. The games take place 2 years after X and Y, and Mega Evolution has expanded to Generation VI as well. There are many new Pokemon introduced in Z, bring the total to about 850.
– Team Flare returns, with another villainous team dubbed “Team Pixie,” who, like Team Flare, have the vision of a beautiful world. Team Pixie are dressed in pink, purple and magenta, whereas Flare are dressed in Black, Orange, and Red.
– Malva leads Team Flare in Mainland Kalos. Xerosic and Lysandre now reside in one of the two new sections of Kalos, and lead a yet unconfirmed villainous team. Bryony, Mable, Aliana, Celosia and Diantha lead Team Pixie in a final new location in Kalos. Team Pixie controls Xerneas, Team Flare controls Yveltal, and Xerosic and Lysandre’s unconfirmed team control Zygarde, all to make a “beautiful world.”
GYM LEADERS- NO ORDER
Traffjo- Fire-type gym leader
Clemont- Electric-type gym leader
Chance- Dark-type gym leader
Valerie- Flying-type gym leader
Wulfric- Ground-Type gym leader
Wikstrom- Dark-type gym leader
Wolffrena- Ice-type gym leader
Drasha- Dragon-type gym leader
Elite 4:
There is no Elite 4.
SPOILER: The champion is AZ. How:
When Team Pixie and Team Flare are at conflict, Xerneas and Yveltal awaken and duel to the death. During the battle, Zygarde awakens, and controlled by Lysandre, Mega evolves into MegaZygarde, stopping the feud, and sending both Pokemon to their graves, and both teams are annihilated in the process. Kalos is teared to shreds. From then on, Xerosic is in disagreement with Lysandre’s work, and Lysandre locks Xerosic up in the Flare HQ. The building is then burned down. No remains of Xerosic are found. Before Lysandre goes to claim is position as Pokemon League Champion, although all humans are destroyed, and all Pokemon are destroyed (in Kalos), AZ comes up. He says Lysandre is a fool, a man who cares nothing about himself and power, and duels Lysandre with his only Pokemon (lives of all dead Pokemon revive it)- Floette. Floette manages to destroy Lysandre as a whole. This occurs right before entering Victory Road, in Broadstone City. From then, the player character makes his or her way to Victory Road, which is blocked off by remains of the Great Pokemon War. Being the only human alive besides AZ, the player character finds a lonely Floette with a message to make his/her way to the heart of Lumiose City. There, Lysandre/Xerosic’s team’s HQ resides, in remains, but with a button, triggering a portal, sending the player to Kiloude City, the only location in the game where nothing has happened. The player then chats with Trevor, Tierno, Shauna and Calem/Serena. There, they reside in fear of the effects of the Great Pokemon War, but also state that the Pokemon League resides not too far from Kiloude. Your rivals take you, by plane, to the Pokemon League, where you do not fight anyone due to the death of everything in Kalos, and instead, with Floette, make your way to AZ. You fight him, with his Floette and 5 Pokemon he managed to save. After beating him, he dies of natural old age, as small portions of past Pokemon games play, until the words THE END appear. Pokemon Z the last game in the series.

Umm… wat?
what is this…?
its hogwash…
haha good answer!
IKR!
Its bullshit sent to me by a leaker- XY1012 to be exact.
you stopped consecutive fishing for this?!?
Had to. XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
next time you need a break from boring ol’ consecutive fishing, you can put it in sleep mode during the battle to reserve the chain.
hmm nice
I stopped reading at will be no elite 4 and after pokemon Z there will be hoenn life 3: confirmed
Raiker I promise to mold this Pokemon into a mean “not-so-lean” Earthsplitting machine!
Let’s battle when this happen
“cracks Knuckles” wanna have a battle now?
hey I found a gastrodon! 😀
a kin of the Gastrodon that landed the winning blow on Cynthia!
I don’t remember having a gastrodon during that battle, perhaps you mean a kitten from the litter of the purugly who put that garchomp in its place?
Hmm a teeny Glameow up against a land-shark?
OK, let’s battle then
@TCMets:disqus, your timid synchronizer is ready. Do you have a shellder or heracross by any chance ?
FUCK CONSECUTIVE FISHING I REELED TOO SLOW TWO TIMES IN A ROW FUCK IT IM DONE
no! bad dicie! patience is a key to virtue!
THIS IS FUCKING SHIT ITS HAPPENED 3 MOTHERFUCKING TIMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I know I’m late to this… but… HOLY CRAP, THAT HOBO GUY IS GIANT! [AZ i think it is?]
in pokemon everything makes sense even the ability for Dodrio to learn fly but be unable to participate in sky battles
neither Eelektross…
for some reason he looks smaller than he should be…..it really lost weight
He’s just uncoiled and wiggly and floating
just like gyarados
Wait, where did you found one?
I battled one
friggin’ hawlucha cant do sky battles!!!
But my Scare in the Air can!
LOL wow that’s pretty ridiculous
Good battle EarthenWarrior
As yourself
Never knew a trevenent was so bulky
Trevenant is a beast, i love it
if my Excadrill wasn’t back at home he’d log it!
DANCING HITMONTOP AND ESPURR CONFIRMED AS MEMES
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tB4biMLdpUI
Tierno would crap himself if he saw this…
He would get
HITMONTOP’D
yo Exe you know that yer Safari is normal right?
and Raiker your Fire!
So guys I’ve amassed a few of Protean Froakies each with 4 perfect IVs (Atk, Def, SpAtk, Speed). Let me know if you are interested.
Oh man
i want to but i dont want too
eehhh nice to offer
but water stings…
I’m interested
have a shellder, omanyte or heracross by any chance
.-. No
got anything from friend safari not from kalos
Crosela I think is not native to KALOS
I have corsola, anything else ?
Pretty please!? 🙂
oh hey got that ralts also
Awesome! I’m breeding Heracross now for you. But what can I trade you for a Protean Froakie with those Perfect IVs?
sure. I really want a shellder, you can get one with a good rod on cyclage town
I will hunt for that too!
sweet so hera + shellder for ralts and froakie. I’m IV breeding right now so let me know when you are ready
Okey dokes 😀
now would be the right time to want a shiny while hatching xD….perfect IVs
And nature too I’m guessing? :O That’d be amazing!
yeah the odds are in my favor at the moment xD. Either way, I’m not giving up until I get hex flawless….any shiny in between is guarenteed to have at least 3~5 perfect IVs and Naive
Best of luck!
It will take a while but if can get just one flawless pokemon I can use to to breed other flawless ones and it will be much easier xD
Flawless bulletproof Chesnaught :O
oh yeah…I will use it to breed a buizel (field/water1) and use that for quilladin (field) xD
Will you share one? 🙂
Of course, I have to keep updating the breeding partners …so I’ll amass a ton of good Bulletproof quilladin (but I’m going for impish). And chespin is easier than Froakie because it doesn’t need perfect sp.atk. Froakie needs perfect everything
Yay! 😀 And Impish was the nature I was aiming for with my first Chespin because you suggested that, until I searched for an hour and a half that first night and settled on a Jolly that likes to Thrash About xD
but first Froakie cuz it’s the hardest one, then I’m planning on Quilladin
Heracross hatched, so I’m ready to trade!
sweet..xD I’m ready
Thank you!
no prob now I can finally test if stuff can get shell smash/icicle spear/ice shard
check those froakie ivs to make sure
4 perfect IVs! Yup ^_^
raise it well xD
It’s in good hands! 😀
Allstate xD
Guess tonight will be full of advertisements xD Travelocity, Allstate, what’s next?
YOU CAN SAVE 15% ON CAR INSURANCE WHEN YOU SWITCH TO TREEKO.
You mean “try-cko”
Edited. :O
I’m shiny hunting, IV breeding, articuno searching, and music listening at the same time xD
I’m trying to watch Markiplier, watch Family Guy, listen to the E4 theme of X and Y, and trying to comment with you guys. I feel overwhelmed XD
Completely random, but I had completely forgot Stone Edge got a power decrease. I was battling my rival earlier, and her Delphox was the same level as my Chesnaught, and I used Stone Edge, and she baaaarely survived.
Whaaaa? NOT MY PRECIOUS STONE EDGE ;__; Excuse while I cry myself to bed.
It used to do 120 damage right? Or maybe I’m mistaken and just always thought it did that. Because it’s 100 now.
Always done 100….
really what is it now?
100, but didn’t it do 120?
oh no it was always 100 bp 80 acc just like cross chop
Well you learn something new everyday. Here I’ve thought it did 120 damage and was the Rock version of Fire Blast/Blizzard/Thunder. Wow, so Stone Edge couldn’t even knock out my rival’s Delphox :'(
chesnaut’s stone edge?
Yeah :'(
yeah if chesnaught had like 120 or higher attack and a better movepool I would use it offensively
Should I opt for Poison Jab or Earthquake instead? Higher Accuracy moves that both cover weakness? I usually love having a Rock type move though for Grass because all that type coverage.
I would have kept stone edge if it wasn’t for 80 Acc. Poison jab would help against any grass type resistant to leech seed. But what does it know at the moment?
It knows Spiky Shield, Wood Hammer, Hammer Arm, and Stone Edge.
those look fine…Since you like offense give it Assault Vest and replace spiky shield with any physical move of your choice….EQ would be good
I can’t get rid of Spiky Shield :O I love that move lol. Can I still use Spiky Shield if it has Assualt Vest?
no but Assault vest boosts its special defense by 50%. That’s a lot!
Holy crap! That’s like the perfect item for a Pokemon like Tyranitar or Aggron!
Goodra….MIXED Goodra!!!
Chansey! Nah lol, Chansey needs to rely on the non-damaging attacks xD
You know, thinking about it, it doesn’t seem so bad going Assault Vest, offensive Chesnaught. Wood Hammer, Hammer Arm, Stone Edge, Earthquake on a bulky Pokemon with passable offense. Certainly no Tyranitar, but beggars can’t be choosers!
give it try you never know xD
Random question… What do you think of Mega Heracross. Also, Shiny Mega Heracross looks like a dildo. THE MORE YOU KNOW XD
It looks like the Travelocity Garden Gnome.
that’s a new one….O_O
Well I haven’t gotten myself acquainted with these new Megas yet, so I looked up a picture of Shiny Mega Heracross, and that’s the first thing that came to mind xP
I should have seen that coming. He uses his Punching Bag Hands to force you to go to Travelocity.com. I used the word “to” a lot in that sentence. lol
I’m still hatching Heracross, but I just caught two Shellder. One is in a Premier Ball and is Lax nature. The other is in a Quick Ball and is Impish nature. Which do you prefer?
premier ball xD
Oh btw, today on the bus I caught a Timid Articuno with perfect IVs in HP, Defense, Special Attack, and Special Defense ^_^ I’m gonna use that Timid Ralts for Mewtwo, because I hear it’s a real pain in the ass to catch.
congrats!!! how high is the speed…you don’t really need max speed anyways xD
Thanks!! 😀 And it has 20 IVs in Speed.
looks solid to me xD
IV lady said it was outstanding! Though I’m still mad at her for disrespecting my Talonflame…
I have a Heracross!
Is the deal still on? I would like one if it is. What would you want?
I have plenty more but these might have HP rather than speed or atk, is that okay?
still 4 IVs though
Of course.
do you have a cacnea/maractus/omanyte or any pokemon with a hidden ability ?
I’ll have to check. I think I have a DW cloyster. I’ve been breeding and haven’t spent much time hunting. I can see if I can find some though.
I would really like a galvantula line, metagross…anything not from kalos
Okay. I’ll see what I can find.
I literally just caught a Maractus. It has water absorb.
any maractus is fine xD I’m ready when you are, my name is Anartya
do I have you FC? Mines: 3110-4650-3890
Nope. Mine is 2707 2889 6124
added
Got it!
thanks!! xD make sure to check those IV just to make sure
Lol. No, thank you! And I will eventually.
Lol. I thought I did, but I don’t have your friend code.
Mines: 3110-4650-3890, what’s yours?
If I went Assualt Vest Chesnaught, Power-up Punch seems to be the better choice because it can still get a needed stat boost, while keeping the Special Defense boost from Assault Vest. So maybe Wood Hammer, Power-up Punch, Stone Edge, Earthquake.
Maybe. I don’t like power up punch too much. But the best bet is through experience. btw what pokemon are common in wi-fi?
What do you mean in Wi-Fi?
battle spot might be what it’s called now…random wi-fi
Aegislash. Everyone has one.
what about blaziken?
Honestly haven’t come across it, but I’ve only had something like 20 battles, so small sample size. Some of which were against fellow Pokejunglers 😀
Looks like I gotta bring my Pursuit Houndoom with me xD
I cripple them with Will-o-Wisp 🙂
Sucker Punch Pursuit and Fire Blast….so many mind games xD
I just managed to breed a Modest Protean Froakie, but it only has a Perfect IV in HP.
getting 4 perfect is pretty easy I found. 5 perfect is rare. 6 perfect is very rare.
Hey, I wanted to ask, do you have any good natured Synchronisers you wouldn’t mind trading…like adamant, modest, timid or jolly ones?
I have every synchronizer. I can easily breed you one if you would like. But it would be later tonight.
That would be great. I’d try getting them myself, but i’m kind of busy. I had planned to EV train a competitive team, but haven’t even started yet…Let me know when you can…
sure no prob
I am interested.
check out the post above. any of those pokemon, I’m looking for.
I can give you a galvantula, omanyte, and maybe and eevee.
I want omanyte. Are you available after 7:15 PM PST today. If not, I will be here all day on saturday.
I want omanyte. Are you available after 7:15 PM PST today. If not, I will be here all day on saturday.
i have a omanyte and should be on around that time
Sorry for not replying yesterday. I can probably trade sometime today.
Let me know what time works. I’m free tonight.
i am listening what are you asking for to get one
Looking for: cacturne, omanyte, larvesta, clefairy, drought vulpix, marvel scale dratini, anticipation eevee, foretress, thick fat piloswine, spheal, metang, bronzong, gastrodon, female lucario, excadrill, galvantula, vulaby, sturdy bergmite, rain dish wartortle, solar power charmeleon.
Any of those pokemon or any of their lines (only exception is Female Lucario)
i have an omanyte
Are you available after 7:15 PM PST today. If not, I will be here all day on saturday.
yes i will be
alright I’ll let you know when I’m ready
Hey. I can give you Larvesta, Vulpix, Dratini, Eevee, Spheal, Beldum, Joltik, Bronzor
I would like Vulpix. Does it have drought?
No :/
I’ll see if I can get one though
No :/
See if you can find a drought vulpix, if you can’t then. Marvel Scale Dratini.
I completed life
http://i3.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/629/042/511.png
That is secretly Micky Mouse. I just know it.
Anyone got a Yveltal, I have an extra Xerneas!
How the fuck
My friend traded me for Blastoise w/ Blastoisinite. Like taking candy from a baby.
Your fiend is a pure genius——es
😀
I finally caught a Dedenne and named it After You! 😀
Anybody want my manectricnite for a houndomnite
Anybody on
Anyone have an adamant marvel scale dratini? I have an extra blazekinite if you want
Ditto in there safari anyone??????
Pokemon Village is where you can find Ditto.
he probably wants it for breeding purposes, as I would also
Oh the hidden ability Ditto, gotcha.
no you can’t pass hidden abilities with imposter ditto. all safari pokemon have atleast 2 perfect IVs. And with a synchronizer you can get what ever nature ditto you want.
http://www.serebii.net/xy/breeding.shtml
Sorry I didn’t clarify, i said you can’t pass hidden abilities with imposter ditto and a non hidden ability pokemon. any diito (imposter or not) can pass hidden abilities with a hidden ability pokemon.
Then why a Safari Ditto? I understand what you’re saying, I know about the non-HA Pokemon w/ an Imposter Ditto. That’s why I suggested Pokemon Village. If Braixen is far enough to go to the Friend Safari, then s/he can go back to Pokemon Village and get a Ditto (which has a low catch rate.)
2 perfect IV + everstone on synchronzed nature ditto and destiny knot + pokemon you desire to breed.
You can easily hatch any pokemon of any nature with atleast 2 perfect IVs. Then you repeat process with a 2nd ditto with 2 perfect IV different from the original one to get 4 flawless IVs…repeat until you get flawless pokemon of any desired nature.
It would take forever to do this in Pokemon village
So.. those three hidden pokemon.. one of them, Hoopa, is ghost/psychic…
That creepy ghost lady still haven’t been that explained yet, have she?
Am I the only one getting a sorta theory or idea?
Nope, I thought of that yesterday.
awesome, im not alone on this then! i hope she’s one XD she’s quickly becoming a favorite trainer just because of how scary she is
And there’s also this.
http://i.imgur.com/4BZMyLz.jpg
Lava Dome.
Heatran? xD
..wow
now thats like 100% proof of it now LOL
where is the creepy ghost lady
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMC-s74EFLU
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hOWJQZ-dhvw
annddd there might be more areas but i havent gotten there yet
What creepy ghost lady?
youve never seen the purple ghost lady in the game? o.o when you go in one of the buildings in lumiose city, she appears randomly behind you. then she appears in one of the hotels. and i hear shes in other places too but i havent gotten to that part yet
OMG! I thought she was a glitch or something lol!
LOL
that wouldve been the best haunted glitch ever.
but then again, after the lumiose city save glitch … i wouldn’t be surprise if it was her doing
<..>
XD! omg at first i thought it was a ghost because she came literally floating behind me, the creepiest part was that she was floating with one leg!!! XD
Does anybody have an Own Tempo Espurr?
I’m hunting for some later tonight, I can get you one if you want a certain gender or nature?
What is your name in the game? You have to be online for me to get the HA Espurr, because I want both male and female.
My game name is Evan! Am online now.
“The 40th wedding anniversary is the ruby anniversary, and the 45th is sapphire.” LOL I can’t be the only one who found this suspicious
There are tons of references. Like I wanna say “God! I get it, just stop already.”
There are tons of references with Sinnoh and Unova too, so it doesn’t really mean something.
I think we should more study the “Strange Souvenir” that a traveller form an unknown region give us.
It’s fair to say that Hoenn is remarkably mentioned more.
Also, one I want to point out is that a Psychic said: “Your power, it’s well over 9000” or something like that.
there really are a lot of references in the game
HURENN CUNFURMED!!!!
45-40=5
5+3=8
8-5=3
HALF LIFE 3 CUNFIRMD
Just got two Froakie’s…I really like Wonder Trade 🙂
I was wonder trading away a bunch of Froakies earlier….
i love this game frist thing i find on route 3 a shiny azurill and i got lucky with the fletchling i caught which i named Cpt.Falcon but it’s nature is adamant and it’s characteristic is “likes to thrash about” and it has great potential
