6th Gen X/Y Quick Q&A

[Flushed]

Yeah I find in this game, moves are learned very late. You might want to try going to the Move Relearner to see what you've missed though. I want to say Talonflame has Flare Blitz, but I can't remember.

 

[jazneo]

you can buy more fire moves from pokecenter

 

[Wobbu]

Talonflame will learn Flame Charge @ level 39 and that's the last Fire type attack it can learn through leveling up. Like Flush'd said, most Pokémon don't learn good moves until higher levels like 40+. My Carbink learned its first and only Fairy type attack at level 50, Greninja doesn't learn its only Dark type attack until level 70, and Phantump doesn't learn any good STAB attacks until the mid 40s. My Talonflame still knew Tackle until the 60s...

Master ball or Big nuggest? Don't think I need the money, is the only master ball in the game?

Haha I think he gives you both. At least if you pick Master ball.

 

[Brolijah]

He'll give you both nevertheless. I chose the big nugget cuz I don't need the master ball xP The past few games I haven't used it

 

[Cyclone]

TMs can be very useful! By late in the game, you also have very many of these, and can buy even more. With the flow of money after you reach higher levels at the Battle Chateau (I ought to buy a suit...), it shouldn't be too difficult to make enough to buy TMs over a few days.

Also, there can be some surprises. Try Leaf Blade. Bellossom supposedly knows it at "birth", but is of course born as an Oddish, which cannot learn the move. The only way to get the move is through a move relearner. Take Talonflame in and see what you get! Make sure you take a Sweet Heart from Camphrier Town!

Talonflame can learn Flare Blitz through the Move Relearner lady. :)

 

[Hiatus]

So, does anybody have a clue how to get the "big smile" face to register on Pokemon Amie? I've searched around to no avail.. Another face people had trouble with was "wide-eyed", but that's easily detected by raising the eyebrows. I'm wondering if there's a certain action that needs to be done for this to be detected?


Super Training maxes out the stats at 252, and that can still be done twice. After that, there's still 6 leftover EVs. So still a total of 510 EVs.

The camera will be having a hard time finding you if you're in a dark place. I've experienced the same kind of issue before, but I was able to have it fixed by going under the light. Maybe you should do that, too—relocate yourself to somewhere bright-looking. If that doesn't work, try keeping a good distance between your face and the 3DS. Once you're ready, hold still for ten to fifteen seconds, and it should be able to detect you immediately. If none of this end up working, then I'm not exactly sure what you could possibly do, to be honest. Sorry. D:

Is there an IV calculator for Generation VI yet? I know there is the guy in the last toen, but I want a calculator that could at least give me accurate/close to accurateresults fpr my Pokemon's IVs.

Not yet, but I assume the fastest we can get one is in a month or at least three. :)

3ds Pokemon X save file query

Hi peers, I hope I can find clarification in this thread, so if this is answered, it may also provides answers to those who may want to try this as well. My doubt is as follow:

I currently has a Pokemon X cartridge, 3ds XL console and a 4GB SD card (name it card O). I have a save file on card O. I have been reading some online articles (please clarify its truth) that if I use a new SD card (name it card N) and play and save new save file with the Pokemon X cartridge, in the event that I can switch back to my old save file, I can still put back my card O and continue my old save file.

Can anyone please enlighten if this is true? If not, is there any other solution to do what I intend to?

Edit: also, I am not sure if this is answered previously as I do not know the truth of this story. Thank you for your understanding Admin :)

 

[Shiny]

After battling Prof. Sycamore he mentions there is a gift or present awaiting you in town. Does anybody know what this actually is? I can't seem to find it.

When this game saves it always saves on the cartridge, SD cards do not matter in this case, iirc.

That's pretty much what the MM is. Breeding two Pokemon from different regions, it just increases the chance of hatching a shiny Pokemon; it doesn't guarantee a shiny.

The standard encounter rate for a Shiny Pokémon (either in the wild or by breeding) is 1/8192, the Masuda method multiplies this rate by 5 (to 5/8192 or about 1/1638) in Generation IV and by 6 (to 3/4096 or about 1/1365) in Generation V.

Korrina's Lucario

Hi everyone!~

I was wondering if it's possible to get a female Lucario from Korrina.
I've done quite an amount of SR's, but so far no luck.

Can anyone confirm if it's even possible to get a female from her, or is it all males she gives out? :pink_giggle:

Thank you so much!~

Nyaa~

Fishing and Luvdisc

First of all apologies if there is already a thread for this. I did search and found nothing.

I have been trying to catch some water type Pokemon after getting the fishing rod. Every time I use it I catch a Luvdisc. EVERY TIME! I have fished in rivers and seas from Route 3 to 11 so far and still nothing but Luvdisc's. Is this by design or is there something wrong with my game?

 

[metalhand]

I think its just because lucario gender ratio is 87.% male, so just like the starters, its really hard to get female one.
