    Disappearing Pokemon

    Hi everyone,
    me and my friend have both lost pokemon completely randomly for no reason at all, we checked our pc's, our parties, everything, they've just disappeared. I was wondering if this has happened to anyone else too? And if there is a way to get them back?

    • Just so many questions, ok I have a inkay which was supposed to evolve at lv30 with the 3ds upside down (really weird method to evolve a poke I have ever seen), I did not know this and now it's lv55 and I tried the method when it went to the next level and it didn't evolve, does it only evolve at lv30 with that method?

    Inkay should evolve at any level higher than twenty-nine. When it levels-up, make sure to turn your 3DS upside-down immediately. If you do it too late, then it may not evolve. d: Also, this isn't totally necessary, but if you're training your Pokémon at nighttime, then try training it during the day. When I evolved my Inkay, it was daytime. If none of this works, then the best thing you could possibly do is catch yourself another Inkay and evolve it exactly at level thirty.

    Wait you have to turn your game system upside down to evolve a poke? What sorcery is this???


    Separate question: Is there a ore manic anywhere in the game? I have a big nugget that Id like to sell.

    I have not found one. I haven't tried near Amberite (the fossil place) though. May be there.

    For inkay to evolve, you have to turn the physivcal 3DS upside down. As in the touch screen is on top of the other screen instead of being below it. It works at any time, any day, any weather, and any level above 30.

    If your Inkay doesn't evovle your 3DS's Gyroscope is broken. If its broken you can't evolve Inkay on that 3DS and will have to buy a new one.

    • I got an error while downloading the patch, and the patch appeared on my Home Menu, It says: Download update data. Do not remove SD card. Close system to resume download.

    So basically I have to turn off the system? I don't quite get the last sentence

    Since it tells you to shut down your system, why not give it a try? If that doesn't work, then what I would if I were you, is cancel the current download and try redownloading. When it gets completed, you should turn your game on and see if the Lumiose City saving bug is fixed or not. If it is, then you're good to go! If not, then, well, I guess you'll be required to download the update again. ): But before you do, take a look into your wifi and see if it's working okay. If it isn't, then unfortunately, you may continue experiencing the same issue until you get it fixed. Make sure that you don't have any firewall enabled, by the way, as they can stop you from getting your update, too.

    Are you sure it's maxed out happiness? Just having five affection hearts on Pokémon Amie might not do it alone. You'll need to get the happiness Value to approximately 220, try giving it a Soothe Bell, battle with it a lot and give it plenty of stat boosting items. It will eventually evolve, there must just be something you're missing.

    Unfortunately i cant give it any stat boosting items i have maxed its EV's out on Super training. I'll try giving it some berries the Happiness raising kind and see if this helps at all.

    Attach it a Soothe Bell walk all over Kalos or have the Togepi (with Soothe Bell attached) in your party while hatching Eggs.
    Remember there's the Massage Girl, residing next to the Cyllage Pokemon Center. ;)

    Is female Meowstic a psychical attacker or a special attacker?
    I mean, which is more effective on her in terms of competitive gameplay?

    The female is a sweeper while the male is a supporter. Both are useful in competitives in their own ways.
    You might try asking in Battle Center, since there's lotta experts there. ;)
