[Nintendo] Pokémon Franchise

Not really a fan of Team Flare due to their plan. None of the members really jump out at me.

And you are aware Malva is a part of Team Flare, right?

Spoiler: show

Yea I'm aware of the fact that she is part of team Flare, but that's what I like about her, she's a bad girl. She's a perfect Tsundere type if you ask me

Errr...

Spoiler: show

You're mistaking Malva with Mable.
Mable is the blue haired scientist from Team Flare, Malva is the Fire type specialist from Kalos Elite 4

.P.S.: By the way, what's wrong with liking evil characters? I like some from previous installments...

Spoiler: show

It's kind of a shame that the only villain who stands out more in Kalos region happens to be the unholy lovechild of Dr.Eggman and Mr.Freeze (Xerosic was it?) from what I could see from LPs in Youtube.
Lysandre would be kind of cool if he wasn't a watered down version of Cyrus. Heck even the plans are nearly identical: "I want to destroy this world and create a new untainted one" (Cyrus)/ "I want to get rid of the vermins that run around the world and turn it into a sutiably beautiful world for me and whoever I see fit" (Lysandre)

Nope. I am not.

[Kaijin]

Thanks for the spoiler... Since no one in YouTube has covered the post game yet (Emiru is bound to cover it or so he told in his run) that's something completely new to me (and while I'm fine by finding things/spoilering on my own (specially if it's something I'll end up getting), I find the fact of others spoilering you painful).

.P.S.: Thanks for such a wondrous gift my dear, I'll be sure to return you the favor someday.

Seems a hacker found two new Mega Evo's and three new legendary Pokémon not gettable in the games yet. Still unconfirmed though.

[Kaijin]

It would be nice if one of those was Mega Galvantula (as it was hinted before the game release).
Since there are no Gen V pokémon to have a Mega Evolution yet (Gen I-> Venusaur, Charizard x2, Blastoise, Pinsir, Kangaskhan, Alakazam, Gengar, Gyarados, Aerodactyl, Mewtwo x2), (Gen II-> Ampharos, Tyranitar, Scizor, Heracross, Houndoom), (Gen III-> Blaziken, Gardevoir, Manectric, Medicham, Aggron, Mawile, Banette, Absol), (Gen IV-> Garchomp, Lucario, Abomasnow).

Maybe they're saving them for Pokémon Z? Or maybe they will be released in an update/dlc patch... Only time will tell...
The only thing I ask is please don't ruin the fun of finding it myself if they appear before I get my own 3DS/3DS XL.

*Kaijin glares angrily at Flare
(Just in case...)

[Jinouga87]

It's the Eon Duo of Latios and Latias that get to go Mega now. Thing is they look the same when Mega.

[Kaijin]

*sigh*
So much for Gen V... Sorry Galvantula, sorry Bisharp, sorry Hydreigon... Sorry whole Gen V... You'll no be getting extra usefulness.

Well, it was to be expected that the twin dragons would get it sooner or later... But hey I was expecting to do something unique like you know...changing... or even fusing into one (that would be sweet and broken as hell most likely).

.P.S.: Well...At the very least there was no fun to be ruined... It was simply a waste of space.

[Pokemonaces]

I'm sure some of the Gen V pokemon will get some love, I mean it's only been less than a month since the game was released, they're probably releasing more pokemon mega evolutions in the Future. Here's hoping for a Mega Crygonal

[Oersted]

Now that I've actively searched for Mega Stones I came to realize something pretty dumb, some stones meant for version exclusive pokemon are in the opposite version... Meaning I won't be able to mega evolve my Manectrike.

Here's hoping for a Mega Crygonal

I have mixed feelings about that, on one hand it'd make one of my favorite pokemon stronger but on the other it might make him more popular which would make me feel less original.

If you need a Manetric, I have plenty of those caught if you want to trade

Also, for those of you who have the VS recorder.

This was probably the closest battle I have ever had in my entire life!

I think you misunderstood, what I meant is that the Manectite, the mega stone for Manectric, is only found in X. In Y you find a Houndoominite instead, problem is Manectric is exclusive to Y and Houndoom is exclusive to X. >_>

Darn, you're right, that WAS pretty darn close! Just one question, why did you keep using Night Slash on Xerneas?

Anyhow, here's my latest win and an example of how my Cryogonal keeps pulling my ass out of the frying pan.

[Pokemonaces]

Ah okay

And as for why I kept using Night slash. Well I was in the middle of training scizor, it didn't know any Steel type moves at the time since it was level 35.

[L337 m4n]

Go to Battle Maison and get BP to get Steel Wing. Though Flash Cannon Magnezone is also pretty useful.

[Pokemonaces]

it's okay, it learned Iron head, which is stronger than steel wing.

[BaroqueSieben]

A lot of things seem to learn Iron Head or Iron Tail, it seems like -- including a lot of Dragons . . . though, if you can work it and your Scizor has Technician, you might find a Bullet Punch to be rather useful as well for your Scizor -- while Iron Head's got more power, Bullet Punch is a priority move that with Technician gets up to 60 power (90 if you factor in STAB), meaning that for something that's weak to it it's going to be a rather nasty blow to take right away.

By the by, I went and got myself X because why not, and I'm finding it rather fun to try to run a team that's different from what I used originally (because really, Honedge is kinda broke for main story). Loving my Limber Hawlucha so far (anyone remember Mucha Lucha?), though I'm wondering if sometime I should be a goof and make a second Hawlucha that has a Hard Stone, Fling, and Unburden, for multiplayer use (because as easy as it is to get Hard Stones, it's still luck-based, and knowing my luck I'll end up buried in Wings or evolution stones if I actually TRY for the dummy prize).

Other members of my X team include a Tyrunt, a female Fennekin named Tamamo (because it's almost obligatory), a Pansage named Josuke (because Simisage, Jojo, and hair), a Wartortle, and I'm debating keeping this Pikachu now that she knows Nuzzle (because wow, did they SERIOUSLY just make a better Thunder Wave?) but she might get replaced later maybe-unsure-dunno. We'll see if something more interesting comes along within time to actually be used/useful.

Diancie is Rock/Fairy
Volcanion is Fire/Water
Hoopa is Ghost/Psychic

[Kaijin]

Hmmmm...You beat me to it...

They're looking cool so far, and one of them has a unique (and rather great) typing.

[Jinouga87]

Makes me wonder what other strange typings will appear.
