There's no preowned ones in any of my local game shops yet :(
I want a copy of Y for a nuzlock but I'd rather not pay full price for it after I've bought X already, since I'm supposed to be saving up for a new PC

I can get you a nuzlock if you want.

It depends on the rest of your team, they fulfill different roles within a team. Who else are you using?

I don't battle competitively, so roles don't matter to me. I've just been trying to decide which one I like better. I've had my Gallade for a while and he's on my Hall of Fame team, but Diantha just gave me a Ralts holding Gardevoirite and I'm a sucker for Mega Evolutions. I think I'm going to give Mega Gardevoir a try and if she doesn't work out, I'll switch to Gallade.
 
a friend of mine used Mega Gardevoir + Garchomp against me in a double battle.. that was bloody brutal.
 
I'm tempted to use Snorlax on X, never used it before and I really cannot decide on a third physical attacker. Also I can't get most of the Pokemon I want to use until Route 8 at the earliest, and it's the first one that I can catch that I'd like to use.

That's okay :<
Did doubles with a friend and he spammed Roar and Sleep powder, now that was brutal xD
 
Just went on a TM hunt. Now I've got all the ones in locations throughout the game; too poor to buy the rest :(

- - - Post Merge - - -

Discovered 15 of them.
 
Steadily playing through X, building up a temporary team until I can get the Pokemon I want. Currently on Route 5, so not long until I can get my first, Snorlax. All but one of the others are found between here and Geosenge, although I have to wait a while for Clauncher. Not a problem really, I can just keep using Froakie for now.

Edit: Resetting for a Thick Fat Snorlax now. First one fainted due to a critical hit.

Edit 2: Got one. It has a hasty nature, which is helpful for speed.

Breeding for a Shiny Charmander

If anyone wants a Charmander, let me know cause I have a bunch.

Why you would want a +Spe nature on a Base 30 Pokemon is beyond me. The thing's never going to be fast.

Maybe not competitively, but surely there are times when being faster than the opponent without EV wasting can be beneficial for some teams? Of course, what is slower than a Hasty snorlax other than another snorlax...Shuckle and Ferrothorn are all I can think of.

Question. I'm starting to breed, mainly to actually attempt to get my first personal shiny, can someone explain max EV's? Like how do I tell if a Pokemon has max EV's?

You can tell from the Super Training. If that green bar on the right is all the way up, then its maxed out on its EV training.
(atleast i think thats correct)

if you mean IVs, then theres a guy in the kiolude city pokemon center who will tell you.
he will give you the stat with the best IVs, and if he says something like "it cant be better in that regard" the pokemon has perfect IVs in that stat
 
I don't think you can without resetting your game. I could be wrong, though.
You can change a whole lot, though, so there really shouldn't be a need to reset it.

Ah, okay. I have a ways to go before I can figure it out then. I'm still right before the Psychic Gym.
