I don't suppose anyone'd happen to have a larvitar they want to trade me, eh?

Q: At what rate do O-Powers level up?

RapidaI've noticed they seem to level up after X uses. If this is correct, how many uses does it take to get the next level?

01:41
@OrigamiRobot I got the wrong version.
@Yuki I mean from an older game.
I got Y, but you don't get Larvitar till late.
@OrigamiRobot Oh, I might be able to do that.
:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
How do you transfer from older versions in this one?
No idea, besides pokebank from BW
01:44
@Yuki Pokemon Bank. Available in December.

Q: How do I transfer previous generation Pokémon to X/Y?

Trent HawkinsHow does one go about transferring Pokémon from previous generations this time around? Presumably, due to the 3DS's lack of GBA slot, Gen3 Pokémon would need to be transferred to a Gen4 cartridge. But how does it work beyond this point? Specifically: Which generations can be used to send Pokémo...

I guess you're not getting your Larvitar until December then, @OrigamiRobot.
Prism Tower is totally not the Eiffel Tower, guys.
Totally.
I really don't get the point of Wonder Trade
02:08
@OrigamiRobot It's trading with all the excitement of not knowing what the **** you're going to get.
Not knowing the shitty pokemon I'm going to get?
02:41
Occasionally I wonder what's taking Bulbapedia/serebii so long to update their info, then I remember that they've usually had a few month lead-time getting the info from the Japanese version and all that's left is translating the names of places/things/people/pokemon.
02:52
@TrentHawkins I think this generation had a global release, so we got it at the same time as the Japanese.
For some people, they got it earlier since some stores broke street date.
@Yuki yes, yes it did. That's why I have to remember to give those two sites a break. In the past they've had 90% of all the information handed to them on a 6-ish month localization lead-time.
Finally, there's a shop where you can just buy Premier Balls instead of having to buy 10 Poke Balls at a time.
@Yuki Wassat?
Also, I just got a Gibble in a Wonder Trade
@OrigamiRobot Premier Balls are special kind of Poke Ball. They have the same catch rate as the normal Poke Ball but with a different design.
In previous versions, to get 1 Premier Ball, you had to buy 10 Poke Balls at once.
So why get them?
03:05
@OrigamiRobot Because they look different.
And because it's a bonus Poke Ball for getting 10 at once.
Essentially, 11 for the price of 10.
I don't get it.
@OrigamiRobot Also, the generation in which Premier Balls debuted was the generation that showed which Poke Ball the Pokemon was captured in when that Pokemon got sent out.
So, for example, I caught a Mewtwo with a Master Ball. Whenever I send this Mewtwo out, it'll show me throwing the Master Ball as opposed to a normal Poke Ball.
03:17
@SaintWacko Once you get into Boutique Couture, you'll see why money is easier to make this gen.
All the clothes are upwards of P100,000.
Also, apparently eggs inherit the mother's pokeball now! No longer are your pokemon forced to use regular pokeballs if you're breeding for natures/egg moves!
@Yuki o.0
@Yuki That's awesome. I've never noticed that
When do you get access to the GTS?
@OrigamiRobot As far as I can tell, as soon as you have pokemon. How useful it is when you don't have many pokemon seen is the issue, however.
@TrentHawkins You don't need to have the pokemon in your pokedex.
03:30
@OrigamiRobot no, but you need to have seen it, or you can't search for it.
@TrentHawkins Not according to everything I've read.
Anyway, the only thing I can find now is trading with friends and passersby
@OrigamiRobot I can open the GTS right now, and the only pokemon under "H" is Honedge.
> Previously, you could trade via the GTS only for Pokémon you'd already registered in your Pokédex by seeing or catching them. For the first time in the main Pokémon series, Pokémon X and Pokémon Y allow you to receive a Pokémon not yet registered in your Pokédex via GTS trade!
How do you even get to the GTS?
@OrigamiRobot then that is blatantly wrong. I can search for charmander, but not charmeleon
@TrentHawkins That's from the official site. Also, someone just told me the same thing in-game
03:39
@OrigamiRobot I suppose I've strung you along for long enough... you get to it by...
4 mins ago, by OrigamiRobot
How do you even get to the GTS?
Wow. That gym was easy despite me not having any Ground Pokemon or Ground-type moves.
Nevermind, I found it
I love the way your pokemon tumbles around in its pokeball as you skate
great attention to detail
They really did an excellent job with this gen.
03:43
Yeah
Doesn't feel nearly as much a rehash like the previous generations.
I'm really impressed with it
I hate navigating around
Stop changing perspectives.
@OrigamiRobot Because of the variable camera?
Ah, yeah
That is a bit more difficult
Wait. I've only seen 10 Pokemon on the Mountainous Kalos Dex. How the frick did this kid lose?
03:45
Do I ever have a chance to get gen 2 starters?
I want a Cyndaquil
@SaintWacko If we don't, I can work on breeding them all for trading by the time Pokemon Bank rolls out.
Oh, wow
I just realized that this is the first gen we could make a team of all fire starters
@SaintWacko half of it would be fire/fight! :P
@TrentHawkins Ha
@Yuki yeah, once pokemon bank rolls out, the only non-gen-6 pokemon i'll be missing are melota and genesect.
03:50
@TrentHawkins I'm pissed because I missed the Meloetta event. It was my favorite Gen 5 Pokemon, followed by Joltik/Galvantula.

A: Other Legendary Pokemon in X and Y?

user57186Currently, it doesn't seem like other legendaries will be available. This does open up the prospect of legendary DLC, though, which could be interesting.

This answer seems all sorts of wrong.
@fbueckert That's because it is. Mewtwo is available after the Elite Four as well as the Gen I birds, although no one knows how to actually catch them before they run away.
@Yuki Good. Just wanted to double-check before I left a comment.
I got the fire starter in a Wonder Trade
cc @SaintWacko
@OrigamiRobot Nice. I sorta want to get the Water starter, but apparently I'll get that one after the Elite Four.
@Yuki Those are all listed in the question.
cc @fbueckert
04:05
@OrigamiRobot Eh. Missed that.
OK, got my Ditto. Who wants some baby pokemon?
Ooh!
Just noticed the "Last used item" button!
@OrigamiRobot Where can I get one?
@Yuki http
04:08
Nooo, the trade was outdated!
@OrigamiRobot What does that mean?
@SaintWacko It means the listing was still there, but that trade wasn't available anymore
@OrigamiRobot :((
There we go. That should fix the unofficial wiki link, which was wrong in the previous pinning.
Goodra should be interesting. Only other third-stage pure Dragon is Haxorus.
FFS people, no one is going to give you a legendary for you Ditto
04:12
@OrigamiRobot Oh god, that reminds of GTS.
@OrigamiRobot Welcome to the main problem with previous incarnations of the GTS.
And this one, too.
People are rarely reasonable when it comes to trading.
Now you can filter by pokemon you have
Trading L5 Pidgey for L100 Mewtwo, Genesect, and Rayquaza! Must have all three!
@Yuki Brilliant!
I can't even search for Ditto, because I haven't seen him yet. :(
04:13
@fbueckert I think you can if you manually type in the species name.
@fbueckert scroll down to "which pokemon?"
Caught a Goomy!
Let you type in unseen ones
@Yuki I saw a buncha people asking for that
Well, that Pokedex entry isn't inspiring. It opens with The weakest Dragon-type Pokemon.
04:15
I can get a Pupitar if I give up my Frogadier :(
Really hoping for a Magikarp-type deal, where it gets ridiculously powerful as Goodra.
I'll see if I can catch another one for trading.
Removed special pokemon from search status. That should make it more realistic.
Oh. To evolve into Goodra, it has be raining.
That's fun.
Everyone wants Scizor
@OrigamiRobot Doesn't help that Scizor has a Mega Evolution.
All right, caught a second Goomy.
04:19
@Yuki Yea, but why would you ask for the fully evolved pokemon?
I found one trade for a Binacle, but it was gone already. :(
@OrigamiRobot Because evolving Scyther involves another trade. And using up a Metal Coat.
People don't want to lose their Metal Coats.
So trade with a friend
@OrigamiRobot No, the Metal Coat is actually used up for the evolution.
@Yuki I am aware
04:22
@OrigamiRobot Feh, you think the kind of person who offers those ridiculous trades on the GTS has friends?
If my friend wanted a L100 legendary for his Pidgey, I'd punch him in the face to knock some sense into him.
That's not what I'm talking about at all.
Bleh. I can't get a Ditto until Pokemon Village, which is close to the end of the game.
Ah, well. Wasn't planning on doing serious breeding until after the Elite 4, anyways.
@fbueckert Which is why I wanna trade for one
I wonder if I can get a Ditto for a Goomy...
Oh, my gibble is evolving
Who in their right mind puts a level 27 Gibble up for Wonder Trade?
04:25
@OrigamiRobot Not as bad as someone wanting a Venusaur between level 21 and 30.
That's not even possible.
All right, offering up my Sylveon for a Ditto.
A Japanese Ditto, nonetheless.
Yay for higher chance of shinies!
So I has a Ditto now.
Noooooooooo
I've got an Eevee, so all I have to do is play with it in the Amie game thingy?
@fbueckert Yep. Feed it, play with it, whatnot.
Really? A Pikachu? Dammit...
Kid better appreciate that Goomy.
04:29
@Yuki What?
Oh well, I still got one and a Ditto. I can breed them ad infinitum if need be.
Are you doing Wonder Trade?
Or I can go catch another.
@OrigamiRobot Yeah. Figured I'd give it a whirl.
@Yuki Yea, but why offer your Goomy?
@OrigamiRobot For lols. It was a pretty sucky Goomy. I don't like using Pokemon that have -Speed Natures.
I can always go catch another one in any case.
This Pikachu sucks too. +Attack, -Speed. Pointless.
I'd be slightly okay with a +Sp Atk, -Speed Nature since Pikachu has really high base Speed. But +Atk? That's a no go.
Eh. I'll go see if I can catch another Goomy if someone wants one.
04:32
I wish someone wanted this stupid Fox thing
@OrigamiRobot Fox thing? The fire starter?
What Pokemon are you looking for?
Lots of things
Ditto mostly
Well, I can't get my hands on a Ditto right now.
04:40
Now the fox is evolving :(
I DON'T EVEN LIKE YOU FOX
YOUR EVOLUTION LOOKS STUPID
I don't mind the second stage. It's the third stage that makes me go DO NOT WANT.
2nd Gym leader goooooooooooooo
Note to self: Stop using Fly when trying to catch Goomy. That thing is fragile as f---.
How fragile? A Flame Charge in the rain takes a fourth of its HP off. Mind you, this is a Dragon-type.
Well that was easy
Someone wants a Magikarp for a Ditto T_T
@OrigamiRobot That'll disappear fast...

Q: When can pokemon forget HM Moves in XY?

Ben BrockaI tought one of my pokemon Strength to test if I could erase it with another TM. Turns out that no, you still have to do something special to forget HM moves just like prior generations. How can I forget HM moves in Pokemon X/Y?

@StackExchange Dupers
I HAVE TO WORK IN THE MORNING POKEMON Y U DO DIS
2
05:10
Dammit now someone wants a Fennekin T_T
Man, these Goomies sure like being slow. That's the third one I've caught that has a -Speed Nature.
Want one, @OrigamiRobot?
What are you gonna breed it?
@OrigamiRobot I have four in my box right now.
@OrigamiRobot Yeah... I went a little overboard trying to find one with a good Nature and ability.
05:17
Sure then
Or better yet, you trade for the Pupitar and then trade me a Larvitar :D
@OrigamiRobot Oh, someone wants a Goomy for a Pupitar?
@Yuki No, a Fennekin
@OrigamiRobot I don't have one of those.
Oh I thought you were replying to my Fennekin Lament.
I wish you could look for all trades that want a certain Pokemon...
05:19
@Yuki Me too :(
I have a Kangaskhan that I don't want
Yesssssssss
Got my ditto
Why am I not in bed?
05:35
I'm really liking the more involved storyline with the other kids.
That one girl is totes into me.
I really need to stop catching Goomies.
I have six now.
 
7 hours later…
13:01
Every time I trade for what someone wants, that trade is gone and someone now wants what I just got rid of.

Q: Are O-Powers playthrough specific?

ReafexusO-power's seem to take a decent amount of time to level up. So I was wondering if they are saved across all games or if they are playthrough specific. If I start a new game will I have the same O-Powers and upgrades or will I need to find them and level them all up again?

13:28
0
Q: Is there any way to fight trainers again?

ReafexusIn Pokemon Black & White there was the Vs. Seeker that let you have rematches with some trainers. Do X and Y have a similar item or mechanic?

Woo! Got a Ditto!
Japanese Ditto, no less!
My Ditto is Japanese as well.
Or at least I will call it Japanese out of ignorance.
I didn't actually check.
0
Q: Is there any reward for making it to the highest rank in the Battle Chateau?

ReafexusI like the idea of it and it kind of just throws money at you. I was just curious if there is any reward (like a TM or held item or Mega Stone or something) besides having access to a bunch of trainers that you can fight a lot?

Q: Is possible to sync and recover current profile in Pokemon Y and X?

FabrícioI and my wife want play Pokemon with different profiles, but the game just have one profile. I made a research about, and until now the only way two have another profile is to buy another game. In fact, this seems a strategy from Nintendo, to make each person that want play, buy a game. So, I wa...

My weedle is Steve.
@RavenDreamer What starters did you pick?
@OrigamiRobot Froakie!
And why plural?
@RavenDreamer You get a gen 1 starter too.
@OrigamiRobot I have not gotten him yet, then.
I have not beaten the first gym yet on account of having to restart, lest all my pokemon be named such things as
PURKACHURRR!!!@
DURNSPURRSS!
etc.
(Little brother got ahold of 3DS)
And now I am trying to capture a pikachu
But I have yet to find one, yet.
15:19
There you are, you electric rat.
15:35
@RavenDreamer Sounds like your little brother needs a lesson in not touching your games. :P
@fbueckert 4 hour car trip. I was driving. Hard to stop him at that point ;P
I should figure out my new 3ds friend code
@RavenDreamer Even easier. Threaten to throw him out. :P
@fbueckert Don't even stop
A fitting punishment
@fbueckert What's so great about it being Japanese?
@SaintWacko A non-region Pokemon gives you a better chance of shinies.
For breeding, I believe.
15:39
@fbueckert Ooh, really? Cool
Oh, I didn't know that.
I thought only Shinies begeted Shinies.
I think it's begat.
@OrigamiRobot I think it's fix'd

NolonarI already have 4 Pokémon capable of Mega Evolution: a Lucario, a Tortoise, a Blaziken and an Ampharos. However, when I activate Mega Evolution for one of them, then switch out my Pokémon, the button for Mega Evolution is greyed out (inactive). I understand that for balancing purposes, you shoul...

Q: Is there any way to tell when another player has given you an O-Power?

SaintWackoI occasionally get a message that an O-Power has expired, which is very annoying, considering that I could have been focusing on battling in the time before that, had I but known. Is there any indication that an O-Power is in effect, or that you have been given one?

Q: How do I "speed" rollerblade?

RetrosaurSo apparently, I've been getting some weird controls. I've found that if I mash the analog stick around in circles, I can pull off even faster rollerblading. More rollerblading, per rollerblade. I can't seem to replicate this though. Is there anyway I can consistently "speed" skate, or skate ...

@StackExchange Why does this have downvotes?
FAE
FAE
@TrentHawkins Your Mii's big honking glasses are great. XD
Waiting for my copy to get here is so painful.
@SaintWacko I habitually check the vote count on all posts and accidentally downvoted. Then I got distracted before I could fix it X_X
FAE
FAE
@OrigamiRobot Shame on you!
I fixed it now!
17:43
I'm here for the Pokeymans!
Where do I sign up?
@Krazer Right here!
Ignore the scratched out part at the top where it says Life Insurance. That's nothing.
Just got X today~ looking forward to it
I'm sorry for your bad decision.
@OrigamiRobot ;_;
FAE
FAE
@Krazer I will have X soon! Hopefully.
17:52
@OrigamiRobot Y?!
@FAE I thought you were getting Y?
FAE
FAE
@OrigamiRobot I like Mega forms better, I dunno. I think I'm getting X still. DECIDING IS HARD, OKAY.
Attn: I have error. The friend code provided to you re: me was incorrect. FULLSTOP. Please for use update code.
FAE
FAE
@RavenDreamer That's the same one on my 3DS friends list. Did you get a new system? :o
@FAE I did. And until 5 min ago, I had a diff. number posted up there.
Then I found out I could do a 3DS transfer, so I mod abuse altered my original message to point to the correct friend number.
FAE
FAE
18:00
Oooh okay.
So mostly, this applies to @Yuki, because I think I already had other folks.
@FAE You can trade for the stones!
@FAE why not both?!
Why is the best Dark move only power 95 T_T
@OrigamiRobot Because @#$*@ you and your dark types!
FAE
FAE
18:05
@Krazer I don't have the time to play both and Fluttershy's getting the opposite of whatever I get.
@RavenDreamer :(
@OrigamiRobot My fav. mon is Absol. I feel your pain.
@FAE You can (unreasonably) beat it in 9 hours if you try!
@RavenDreamer Dark type is best type.
My favorite pokemon before Absol was Sneasel.

@Krazer wat
Also, my Weedle is Steve.

Q: Does Lucky Egg boost the experience gain from Exp. Share?

KlokworkkI'm trying to figure out if putting a Lucky Egg on a party pokemon would give it extra experience even if I don't use it in a fight.

Q: When or how does Pancham evolve?

KlokworkkI have leveled my Pancham up to level 40 but he has yet to evolve. Bulbapedia just shows that the pokemon evolves through an 'Unknown method.' I would like to know what the method is so that I can evolve my Pancham into Pangoro.

If I haven't added anyone, ping me
@BenBrocka I. Hm.
@BenBrocka Nope. Have you.
@RavenDreamer are you even on the list?
oh I have you anyway
@FAE Uh. What is your status message?
I can't decide if it's "I love boobs", "Infinity is less than 3", or "Love is g reater than infinity".
infinity is less than three, showing her blatant lack of mathematical skills
18:47
Okay. I think I registered everyone I hadn't registered. CC @Yuki @SaintWacko @TrentHawkins @fbueckert @OrigamiRobot
19:02
@BenBrocka I probably need to add you when I get back
@RavenDreamer I'll have to add you after work.
19:24
Same here
I will also be trying to do a complicated trade dance for a pupitar/larvitar
Once I complete this, i will gladly trade Larvitars to anyone who wants one. Also Gibbles.
Hello, everyone.
@RavenDreamer Wait, so I have the wrong friend code?

Q: Clothing store access in Pokémon X & Y

MrGomezQuestion text contains spoilers: This description is dubious, and doesn't inform the player of what they need to accomplish to gain access. Specifically: Thus, my question, inclusive of spoilers, is:

FAE
FAE
Polyamory (from Greek ['], meaning "many" or "several", and Latin ', "love") is the practice, desire, or acceptance of having more than one intimate relationship at a time with the knowledge and consent of everyone involved. It is distinct from swinging (which emphasizes sex with others as merely recreational) and may or may not include polysexuality (attraction towards multiple genders and/or sexes). Polyamory, often abbreviated as poly, is often described as "consensual, ethical, and responsible non-monogamy." The word is sometimes used in a broader sense to refer to sexual or rom...
19:37
@Yuki Long story short, I did a 3ds data transfer which kept my nickname and mii, but updated the friend code to my original one.
@FAE Hm. You make a compelling case. I still like my first guess, though!
@RavenDreamer Just to double-check, what was your "old" friend code?
@Yuki 1177-7789-4112 (DON'T USE THIS! It's a trap!)
@RavenDreamer Good, I didn't register that one.
Just checking if I had to delete a provisional off my list or something.
@RavenDreamer Why is it a trap?
@OrigamiRobot Because it is a phantom number that connects to no one.
19:41
That's not a very good trap
@OrigamiRobot I asked him for the wrong friend code in case I had registered it before he released the actual one.
@Yuki I know it's wrong, I just wanted to know why it was a trap.
You are now friends with Red Shark!
That's you, I'm guessing.
Also, I have spent ~30,000 Pokedollars on clothing. And I haven't bought anything from the expensive Boutique yet.
What about "Raven Dreamer" does not scream "Red Shark" to you?
Though come to think of it, you might be new here.
Slightly annoying how the guy with boosted EXP question is going to accept his own answer after I edited in affection 2 hours before he posted his own research.
19:46
Eh. it's just 15 rep.
Oh well, I'm not going to miss 15 rep and it's not like he didn't go more in-depth about it.
That's the spirit.
I've already received 300+ rep this weekend for Pokemon.
It's ridiculous.
I'm top answerer, yay!
My Super Training question has only received 327 views :(
I figured it'd be more popular.
Wait, Oblivion Wing is a Flying-type move? I thought it'd be a Dark-type...
19:57
Psh. Dark types don't have wings.
@Yuki That is clearly the flying type half at work.
(Also, I'm being facetious).
Also, I could list Murkrow, but the point is that the Flying legendaries always tended emphasize the not-Flying part in their moveset.
So I was surprised when I found out that Yveltal's signature move is actually Flying-type, not Dark-type.
Yeah. I can see that.
So It's FLYING dark, and not DARK flying
@RavenDreamer Sorta. It's still listed as Dark/Flying though.
And its ability boosts its Dark-type moves.
It's just that its signature move is Flying.
Really weird.
20:02
Hm. Wonder if Vivillon formes are genetic.
@RavenDreamer Apparently, it's geographic.
Different regions get different forms and you get different forms by trading Vivillons.
@Yuki Yes. But if I import a Canadian one with a different forme, then breed it, what does the baby look like?
@RavenDreamer I think it still looks like your native Vivillon. At least that's what the article suggests.
@Yuki should add
room topic changed to Kalos: Talk about Pokemon X/Y here. Battle, trade, and just have fun! [no-sleep] [pokemon-sixth-gen]
Oh god. Just like first gen, my first sighting of Jynx will haunt me in my nightmares.
Also, I picked up Gengarite.
20:11
Are mega stone findings random?
Or are they always in the same place?
@SaintWacko From the way I've received mine, I think they're always in the same place. With variations depending on what version, I'm assuming.
I hate that I can't make concrete conclusions without having played Y.

@OrigamiRobot What?

Q: Where should I be rubbing my pokemon?

Raven DreamerWhen I first started playing with Pokemon'Amie, my Froakie just absolutely loved getting his tummy rubbed. But now when I go in to play with him, he frowns at me when I administer the belly rubs. In general, where should I be rubbing my frog to increase his affection? Is it the same for each po...

Okay, time to beat the first gym.
Get this show on the road.
20:28
Oooo~ Abomasite.
Interesting. Tyranitar only appears in Y, but his/her respective Mega Stone is received in X.
@Yuki Need
@OrigamiRobot Looks like you should've gotten X instead of Y. You can get any number of Tyranitar through breeding, but good luck getting someone to give up the one Tyranitar Mega Stone you get.
Unless you can get more through the Battle Tower or its equivalent.
20:45
@Yuki I got Y for the legendary
@Yuki Where did you see this?
Not that. Look at reply.
Fixed.
Everywhere else lists it as a Dark move.
@OrigamiRobot Serebii is generally very accurate, but I guess we'll see in the near future.
I'm pretty sure someone has caught Yveltal by now.
Both of those types have pretty good coverage from what I recall.
I like how they're messing with type matchups in this gen.
20:52
I love all the goofy types.
Oh there was Dark/Dragon last gen?
I need dis
