    well I got a female Mawile and I was wondering if I can breed another Mawile but of course with an english name.
    when in the game and at what level can these guys breed anyways?
    Click to expand...

    You can breed at any level, all you need is either:
    The same pokemon that's a different gender
    A Pokémon that is in the same breeding group, but a different gender
    A ditto
    The Pokémon Daycare (located on the route West of Mauville City or the Battle Resort)

    Speaking of Breeding, I have a question about it.
    If I had a Male Espurr/Meowstic, and a Female Eevee (with Hidden Ability Anticipation), and I bred them together (Both from Field egg group), would I be able to get an Espurr with its Hidden Ability?

    No. Male Pokemon only pass down their DW/Hidden abilities when they're paired with Ditto.

    But, wouldn't the Female Eevee pass down the hidden ability, and the Espurr/Meowsitc would pass down the specie?

    With that combination, you won't get Espurr at all, you would always get Eevee.

    When you breed, you will always get the lowest stage of the female species. Except with Ditto of course.

    Why is there 2 pokemon daycare centers?
    Click to expand...

    Well, I can't say anything official, but I'd think the one West of Mauville is there to provide a Day Care to those who haven't completed the story yet, and the one in the Battle Resort is just to make Competitive Breeding easier, since everything is in one place, and the Battle Resort allows you to navigate around while just holding the Up button, and the IV checker is at the Battle Resort as well.

    I know this may be a bit of a noob question, but what's the Berry called (the one that increases friendliness but decreases Attack EV) and where can I get it? I got all the others and I just need Attack one to start growing them.

    The Berry you're asking for is the Kelpsy Berry. In OR/AS, they can be obtained from the Berry Master, from Kiri (requires Surf to reach in Sootopolis). Kelpsy trees are also growing in Route 115 the first time you reach it; again, you need Surf to reach them.

    It can't hurt to check Bulbapedia or Serebii before you ask, though.

    I probably would do that, but I literally didn't even know the name of the berry, so I'd probably get nowhere trying to find it, sorry lol

    It helps if you're gonna breed, as it will increase chances of finding Shinies (Of course, if you're not from Japan)

    There's also a big garden of berries up the stairs just to the left of the Berry Master's house. It has all the EV-reducing berries, contest berries, and super-effective damage lowering berries in it. And once you've picked them, you have all that space to start growing stuff yourself.

    The reason why it's Dex number shows up as ??? instead of an actual number is because it's a Pokemon that is not native to Hoenn; the Pokedex you get at the start of the game only has some of the Pokemon in it. Once you deal with Primal Groudon/Kyogre Birch will upgrade your Pokedex to the National one, which has all 721 Pokemon in it.

    • I just read that the only way to get it is from StreetPass, but I don't know anyone who play the game in my zone, so that means i can't get it... They should have just gave it by WiFi event...
