Spoiler tabbing this since it talks about mega Evolution:

Spoiler

Just realized that the only Pokemon on either of my teams that can Megaevolve is Abomisnow, and that's only because my brother made me pick a Pokemon that can Megaevolve, I didn't even want to use it.

Okay, it seems that I have no extra PC boxes even after beating the Elite Four. Am I eternally bound to just 7 storage boxes and 1 battle box so I can be disappointed by the fact that I have to actually release pokemon to complete the Pokedex?

[Haylee]

Is everyone seriously trying to complete the pokedex? ._. I was just kinda playing through the game.

 

On another note, The final slot in my Alternate Team officially has been taken by Tangela!

You get more boxes after you place a Pokemon in the last box.

I'm trying to get a full Eeveelution team.  I have all of them, but their natures are wrong, and I need to utilize Hidden Power to give a wider range of move offsets.

At the moment, I gave my Vaporeon, Hidden Power Poison, so that it can handle fairy types, since I'm sure they'll be used a lot in the metagame.  I would want Flareon on my team, but just it just has terrible stats, and there aren't many worthwhile physical fire attacks it can learn.  Flare Blitz, while powerful, can't be used often due to Flareon's horrible base HP stats.  I can 3 shot myself, even without the opponent attacking me.

For now, I'm contemplating abandoning Sylveon entirely, since Espeon can learn Dazzling Gleam.  The only way I'd choose to keep Sylveon would be if I needed a Special wall, of which Umbreon fills out already.

So far, my team consists of Jolteon, Espeon, Leafeon, Umbreon, Vaporeon, and Sylveon.

The reason I'm not using Glaceon, is the same reason I'm considering not using Sylveon.  Vaporeon can learn Ice Beam.

If anyone else has any pointers for a full Eeveelution team, let me know.  I'm trying to have the most diverse attack moves as I can, whilst utilizing Hidden Power.

Well, you're going to have overlap no matter what you do. Espeon covers all the types Sylveon does, and with a lot more speed and special attack.

 

Anyhow, on one hand, I'd consider Glaceon still as it has higher base Special Attack than Sylveon and it learns Frost Breath which is a little bit more accurate Blizzard (60 Base, 90% Accuracy and always results in a critical, can be useful if you have something raising it's Sp. Def up as I believe Criticals bypass stat boosts).

 

Though on the otherhand, while Flareon is indeed terrible, you don't have anyone other than Leafeon whom can deal good physical damage. Even if it takes itself out, it may be able to help when facing a Special Sponge. Flareon could possibly work more as a mixed attacker too and has relatively decent Special Defense.

 

Statwise, between the three, Flareon is actually faster than Sylveon slightly, though Sylveon has slightly more Defenses than Flareon in both. Glaceon while still slow as Flareon (Screw you Gamefreak for this), it has higher Defense than the others, but lower Special Defense and Ice is a terrible type.

 

In the end it matters more to you. Going with an all Eeveelution team is probably still not the best idea for a team.

I mostly did it until I can move my team from Pokemon White over.  It won me a couple local tournaments, so I wanna see how it can be handled current gen.

 

I have the most random team ever, but it works.

 

Zapdos Timid Nature

Moves:  Baton Pass, Substitute, Agility, Thunderbolt  (in case you wondered how the hell I got a Baton Pass Zapdos, you can get one in Pokemon XD)

 

Starmie Timid Nature

Moves: Surf, Thunderbolt, Ice Beam, Rapid Spin

 

Heatran; Naive Nature

Moves: Flamethrower, Earth Power, Explosion, Hidden Power (Electric)

 

Machamp; Adamant Nature

Moves: DynamicPunch, Payback, Bullet Punch, Stone Edge  (Point with him is to get Zapdos to Baton Pass Agility, so he can be fast enough to hit something)

 

Scizor; Adamant Nature

Moves: U-Turn, Bullet Punch, Superpower, Roost (not sure about this move atm, might swap out for something else)

 

Gengar; Timid Nature

Moves: Focus Blast, Thunderbolt, Shadow Ball, Hidden Power (Ice)

 

I've a couple here that can Mega Evolve, once I trade em over, so I can't wait for that.

So while trying to get some new Vivillon forms from the GTS I picked up a few Scatterbugs in different languages and I noticed that when I evolved them, their names changed to the English names of the pokemon. It doesn't work with custom named ones, but with the ones with the standard name from another country it seems to work. So it may be possible to get some of the really cool forms in English names if you can obtain a Scatterbug or Spewpa that will evolve into it.

 

12 down, 6 to go in my hunt of Vivillon forms. People certainly go nuts for certain forms like the Sun one..

 

Anyhow, if anyone would like to add me for the Friend Safari, my 3DS FC is - 1633-4544-3539. Just please PM me instead of posting here if you do. I don't really do much with Trades or Battles. I always train stuff I like which turns out to be terribly unbalanced teams and I usually get most of the pokemon I need without trading.

[thepsynergist]

Oh great...

Pokécheck owner Xfr and Pokécheck administrator/Project Pokémon Super Mod Bond697 have dumped, decrypted, and documented the Pokémon X and Y Pokémon file format.

It's only a matter of time now until we get gen 6 hacked pokemon.  If I had to hazard a guess, they'd use the same method as custom GTS uploading via an internet proxy.

-_-

I dislike when people do things like this to Pokemon games. Do they really have to ruin the experience and make new Pokemon or edit the stats of the ones they already have?

[Haylee]

Whats the point of hacking the game if EVs and IVs are made very simple in this game? Training the Pokemon is actually the funnest part IMO.

 

Meanwhile, I'm giving out a bunch of Vulpix if anybody wants them.

Spoiler tabbing this, since I'm not sure if the wherabouts of a Pokemon counts as a spoiler.

Spoiler

Basically, Vulpix is unobtainable through normal gameplay, It can only be obtained by luck in the after game.

So yeah, whoever wants a Vulpix egg, just ask.

I want one. Are you looking for any pokemon in particular?

 

Anyways, I'm currently training random Pokemon from my PC boxes in the Victory Road to get them to evolve. Just finished up evolving Skitty. Sigh... 10 Pokemon down, 90 or so to go. Beware, you will very occasionally encounter Floatzel horde battles, which have Pursuit. Keep that in mind because that will very likely KO your pokemon as you switch it out.

Nah, if I wanted a Pokemon, I would either request it here, or use the GTS, now then, what is your FC? :3

 

(Mine's in my profile.)

[thepsynergist]

I could use one.  FC's above, or you could PM me.  I'll be on tomorrow, its almost 1:30am here.  xP

[Haylee]

Sure, I'll get you one too.

 

I waited to respond just so I can post this:

I'm a baaaaaaaaaaad man!
