Pokémon X & Pokémon Y introduced some great new social features to the Pokémon series, and we understand that our readers are keen on battling, trading and interacting with one another in the game. A week or so back we created a Friend Safari post so that our readers could swap their codes for one another to add. Since before X & Y released we wanted to create some sort of database that would work alongside a set of systems we would release after release, only now are we starting the project though. A mention to the Pokémon forum at GameFAQs must be made for the inspiration for the execution of this.
We’re launching this database in preparation for some of the future systems we’re going to release and us such it’s a very crude and simple version of what the final product would hopefully look like. While initially only the database will be available we’re hoping to launch several other features for X & Y, which will include a Battle Spot and Trading Post. These two will allow our readers (and hopefully anyone on the internet) to publish requests for battles and trades, much like the GTS in game, but with a more social approach. We’ll provide further details on those soon, so stay tuned!
To submit your details to the Friend Code database you simply have to fill out the submission form. When filling it out please use correct grammar and punctuation and follow the simple guidelines we have listed, this helps to organise the information and allows us to filter out any inappropriate content. In order to view and check both your own and details of others please view the Friend Code Database.
It is important to note that we are essentially launching this as a beta, in order to test the simple functions and scripts Google provides; it is not final. If successful the feature will become an important part of the site. If the project doesn’t take off we will reconsider our approach and make future decisions based on feedback and reception. As always we’d like to hear your feedback on this project, and any suggestions you have for other things you’d like to see us implement on the site in the comments. Feel free to ask any questions or raise any issues you have with anything site related and we will do our best to resolve them.
As always, please Like us on Facebook and Follow us on Twitter. Don’t forget to register on our forums, and take part in some great discussion with other Pokémon fans. Please remember to follow our Community Guidelines too!
I got two shiny fraxure , and traded one to my friend,
I have a terrible stat shiny skrelp,
and a shiny heliolisk – Good stats, good nature, bad ability.
I NED MOAR SHINY POKEMANZ!!
The greed is real…
I ned them too.
As much as I like Delphox, Serebii’s right. Delphox is the best example of a jack of all trades, but master of none
How so?
Delphox has the speed and power of a special sweeper, but a very sparse movepool to support it. It has a wide range of support moves, but it lacks the stats to go with it
So delphox is RU or UU?
fuck smogon tiers, but yes, its stats are too good for NU but its cursed movepool and stats relegate it to UU and RU
True. Wonder what GF was thinking with that movepool? Why so little variety?
I have no clue whatsoever, its not like it has a good ability or anything (but of course ninja frog and nut foretress got great abilities)
Ken Sugimori talks about gen 7: http://www.gamespot.com/articles/pokemon-art-director-wants-to-take-series-back-to-basics/1100-6416046/
Kinda old news
I just looked at the title and thought of genwunners.
lol
Looks like even game freak is a genwunner
XD but i think going back to basics is a good idea
You’re talking about the pokemon designs or about the game?
The designs
U a genwunner!?!?!?!/!?!?!?!?!
XD arceus no
I was joking. I guess I should put XD at the end of jokes,
I know lol
this would be the worst business decision in the history of ever
That would mean no battle frontier, no battle tower, no post game…
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wOxt9PoJNkg
I hope not. Hopefully with x and y they realized fans didn’t like the small amount of post game
WHAT? Ken Sugimori, jeez, god…
“simplifying the designs used for Pokémon”`
NONONNONONNONONONO
he did also say that they would gauge the popularity of this idea first
ugh e__e no no no no no D;<
i know it's odd to hear, but i didn't play gen 1, mostly because the variety of poekmon was so little. i like the vast amount of choice we have now ;3;
i know he says its just a possibility, but i dont think i'd enjoy it too much..
though thats just me. i know a lot of people loved red and green and blue.
I didn’t play gen 1 either, just the remakes; and yeah thinking about it again i don’t think decreasing the amount of pokemon is a great idea
I just reached the 100 hour milestone on my file! This calls for a celebration! 😀
Would you like an Xatu from your Safari as your present? (With it’s Hidden Ability)
I got one a while ago, thanks though 😀
Could you get me a Shelgon from my Safari then? XD Sorry
Yeah, let me go catch one.
Yay, thank you! 😀 I need one for the Pokedex anndd I may or may not use it for my competitive team 🙂 Also could you get one with Rock Head? It should be easier to find since it’s its regular ability.
In the process of catching one, I’ll go check it.
Impish, Rock Head, Male.
Perfect! Thank you very much! 🙂
Of course 😀 ready to trade?
Yup!
hk
I didn’t know Amie raises evasiveness 😀
Me either, until now.
I won’t say which Pokemon it is (it’s a surprise), but I “judged” it, and the guy said it had “outstanding potential overall” and he only mentioned Attack. Does that mean the Pokemon has 31 IV”s in Attack?
If he said it cant be beat as the last thing he says,
If he said it was unbeatable, yes. Outstanding means overall stats are high but not necessarily 31
“Stats like those… They simply can’t be beat!”
Fabian, you just wonder trade? My bro wonder traded with someone named Fabian.
No lol XD
Oh, well. I thought there was a chance
I ran into like 10 Electrodes in a row without PokeRadar. If I run into 40, do my chances of finding a shiny increase, or does this only apply to PokeRadar?
I think it only applies to Poke Radar. 😛
FUCK. Well, found a Helioptile anyways. Trying to get a Shiny one through your Friend Safari. Wonder what other places work just as efficiently.
I love wonder trade. I got all the starters I didn’t have and I got a whole bunch of egg move lv.1s. I even got a volt tackle pichu.
I got a Japanese Gible with Rough Skin and almost perfect IV’s in HP, Defense, and Sp. Defense. 🙂 Oh, and it has a Jolly nature! 😀
That’s good. I’m trying to get a lv. 100 garchomp as we speak. I’m no where near it though.
I should probably breed it to get Attack and Speed, but I’m not too fond of M. Garchomp, or Garchomp overall.
holy —
are you able to breed that pichu and get more volt tackle pichus? ouo….
When are our fellow jap players online? I hear their WT generosity is without bounds
I have a lv.96 barbaracle, a lv.96. florges, and a lv.96 charizard, and I’m not even trying. I’m just training my competitive team wit hthe exp.sha . . . er, exp. all.
In the Friend Safari, there is a certain patch of grass where Helioptile always appears. Shiny ratio increased?
That’s just a coincidence, Dedenners.
Yup, it is a coincidence. After 15 encounters with a Helioptile, ran into an Electrode. 🙁
A shiny Electrode wouldn’t be THAT bad…right? XD
ITS A FUCKING BLUE POKEBALL. XD
Yeah, it’s pretty bad isn’t it? 😛
Terrible. XD
correction: A FUCKING BLUE UPSIDE-DOWN POKEBALL
Does anyone want a sneasel with icicle crash and ice shard?
wow o-o .. thats awesome!
id ask but.. ive asked for a lot from you now LOl;;;
i can give you one for free
O: wow! ^^ thatd be awesome!
thanks!
that dunsparce have pokerus btw
You’re welcome
i cant wait to transfer all my old pokemon especially my zoroark and swanna and lucario
Thanks for the Rotom data Jordin, I didn’t catch one yet.
No problem, did you catch a Kadabra/Alakazam yet?
whenever anybody shows the slightest bit of negativity towards goomy http://laddersintothegrave.files.wordpress.com/2013/01/eg04ythqmti_o_nostalgia-critic-james-and-the-giant-peach-part-1.jpg
I’m getting really upset right now… I need confirmation on this!
If I give my “special” Pokemon a Destiny Knot (it has IV’s in HP and Speed), and give the Ditto a Power Bracer, is it possible to get a certain Pokemon with IV’s in HP, Attack, and Speed? Or do one of the items cancel the other out? I need to know, so far, I’m only getting Pokemon with IV’s in Attack…
Can’t stack a power item and Destiny Knot. Just use the Destiny Knot and an Everstone to pass the nature. Destiny Knot passes down 5 total IVs from both parents, so after some time, you’ll eventually breed one with HP, Attack, and Speed from the parents.
I KNEW IT! Someone told me before that it was possible… ;-;
Thanks, by the way! 😀
You’re welcome 🙂
Someone has been lurking… LOL
Nope, actually just got out of bed about 30 minutes ago when you told me “Nice” so I thought that meant YT xD Was playing my Y game most of the morning though, training Saikou to Lv 100.
B-but was there someone else playing for you? You have been playing since I woke up like 3 hours ago xD I will only do it when you need to check YT then. I see, that’s why you were using Exp. Power. 😛
I was laying in bed playing my game xP Didn’t get out of bed until you said “Nice” xD
I have been in bed all day playing. So comfy and at night when you’re sleepy just save the game and voila! Wake up in the morning playing Pokemon!
Exactly! xD I really should go eat breakfast (at 1:46 in the afternoon) and get ready though, so I’ll be back later xD
I ate breakfast at like 4:00 PM one time XD I’ll be here… Hatching some eggs xD
Alright, I have a Shiny Braixen, Pikachu and Spritzee. I will trade one of these for a shiny, preferably a Shiny Helioptile. If not, I am accepting and considering trade requests.
Q___Q …….shiny..braixen.. -reach- agh curse me and my fail luck of not getting shinies T-T
I WILL SEARCH FOR A SHINY HELIOPTILE FOR YOU Q__Q
hopefully no one beats me to it like last time q 3q
Alright! I’ll be here!
What does shiny Spritzee look like? :I
Blue.
*O*
I see what you did there, giving me an Alakazam 😛
No… I gave you a Kadabra ;P
CRAP I need Kingdra as well XD I’ll do it later.
I’ll be here XD
Does anyone have an Adamant Imposter Ditto they’d trade me? :3
Anyone have a pinir mega stone ill tade you my heracross mega stone
Guys guys guys!
Imagine… Avalugg with, wait for it… HEAVY SLAM! O.O
meh, a movepool of Recover, Rapid Spin, Avalanche, and Curse seems more useful IMO, but Heavy Slam could work
I’m just thinking of the damage that would cause… o.o
I’m going to train avalugg, any tips?
Get on with Sturdy. 🙂
moveset I mentioned earlier and sturdy with Relaxed/Impish with 28 in Sp. Def., 240 Def. and 240 HP with leftovers, make sure to switch out from strong special attackers
