[Nah]

I have seen some ester eggs on youtube and I was wondering, I can play these ester egg to?

...what's an "ester egg?"

I take it she means easter egg.

Amourshippingfan23, do you have a video of one of these so we can see? Would be able to help better that way.

Oh, like those. Yeah, you can do that, and should be able to do all or most of the other ones you've seen. That one in particular though only happens once in the entire game though, so if you've already see it already, it won't happen again.

 

[Amourshippingfan23]

I have not seen it yet.
how do I see the easter egg?

For the ghost girl, all you have to do is go to the second floor of that building like in the video.

okay, I'm going to try that:-)

Befriending Players With Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire

So I added someone who plays Pokemon OmegaRuby or AlphaSapphire and I wonder if I can get three pokemons in their friend safari, if they have beaten the league in their OmegaRuby or AlphaSapphire?

I would presume that no it doesn't. Mainly because ANY friend in your 3ds friend list can appear in the Friend Safari whether or not they even played X or Y in the first place: http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Friend_Safari

So since the friends that never played X or Y still appear in your friend safari with their two pokemon, I would imagine OR/AS players are in the same boat as any other 3ds game; regardless of if they finish or not, they don't give a thrid pokemon until they get a copy of X or Y and finish it.

I'm trying to discover something but I'm sure that Pokemon X and Y can cope with people with people OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire, I'm testing to see if it works.

I recognize those words as being English, but I don't know what you meant to say with them in that order! ;-)

Hey guys, I have a question.

Is there a way to tell what what character belongs to each friend in the friend safari? I have a lot of people added, but some are a lot of repeats or haven't been on in a while and I would like to delete them, but I don't know who is who in my friend list because the names change between the in game names and ds names.

One hit KO?

I'm a noob and I just want to know...
If you faint a pokemon with one move, it's a 1 hit KO
Here's the question:
if I hit a pokemon with a move like bone rush (Ie. a move that hits multiple times on the same turn) is it still a 1-hit KO? :2:

So my 3ds xl right hinge broke (just started cracking and the crack got bigger and bigger until it broke) and going online it looks like the predominate break for the system is almost ALWAYS the right hinge (turns out the prevalent theory is because the right hinge is much more hallow than the left and isn't made as sturdy) so I'm very annoyed because I always took such good care of my systems over the years and this crack developing over normal use is just frustrating as it show cheapness on Nintendo's part, but now *I* need to pay for it. And it was most definitely under normal use because I never mistreated it, but also when I first noticed the crack forming, you could see it open up at certain points while actually closing the screen, so the stress on the plastic housing was most certainly from the normal stress of the hinge inside.

Anyway, since I have had to wait to save up for either a repair or new system, I opted to get a new system, so when I do a system transfer, what do I need to look out for? SPECIFICALLY with the street pass/spot pass, Pokebank, friend list (cause I have 100 friends on my current system and don't want to lose them all!) and just the all around data on my SD card? Is there any way to transfer my data on my SD card to the SDHC card that comes with the new 3ds? (I have a mac, so if you need a PC specifically to read the data, I'm hooped!) Thanks for any help!

Only if the first hit of the move KO's the opposing Pokemon. E.g. if the 2nd hit of Bone Rush/Fury Swipes/Water Shuriken etc. KO's the opposing Pokemon, it is not an OHKO

Is there seriously no difference between Aromatherapy and Heal Bell anymore? I know Heal Bell USED to not affect pokemon with Soundproof or behind substitute, and nothing is not affected by Aromatherapy, so except for the fact that Aromatherapy now activates Sap Sipper, is there literally no difference between either one now (other than Sap Sipper activation) so there's no drawback for either move now? or does Aromatherapy activating Sap Sipper mean those pokemon do NOT get thier status ailment healed?

I am breeding a Chansey at the moment and want to know which healing move I should go with.

I did a bit of looking into it, and yeah it appears both moves do the same thing, other than Aromatherapy triggering Sap Sipper if a teammate who has it is on the field in double/triple battles.

Can anybody tell me what's a fast way to level a pokemon after EV training it?

Rotation battles at Le Wow is one of the best ways to get exp. The Battle Chateau is pretty good too if you seek out the higher level trainers, particularly the Furisode girls (they use Audinos). Lucky Egg and Exp O-Powers help it go more quickly as well.
