Does anybody know how the exp share works? Well, I know how it works, I've beaten the game, but if you have a full team of 6 pokemon, will they recieve less experience than if you only had 2 pokemon? What I'm saying is, is the exp shared among all the pokemon or will each pokemon recieve it's own amount of experience?

Main battlers receives 100% of the Exp they deserves, while the slackers in the team receive 50% instead. {XD}

Ok, thanks! I wasn't sure how it was divided.

Does anyone know the conditions for rebattling a trainer? I don't remember getting rebattles at all on Y but my friend on X seems to rebattle all the time. Not sure what triggers it.

If your rank is high enough in the Battle Chateau, you can have rematches with the Gym Leaders and Elite 4. Of course, you can have rematches with the Elite 4 in the Pokemon League itself.

Plumpyfoof November 7th, 2013 12:27 PM

So I have a habit of pre-determining one Pokemon to use to sweep the entire Elite 4 ahead of time. I used Lucario for White and White2.

My concluded Pokemon for XY is Porygon-Z
My question is, do you think this set will do the job for in-game purposes only?

Porygon-Z @Expert Belt
Trait: Download
Modest nature (+SpA, -Atk)
- Ice Beam
- Thunderbolt
- Shadow Ball
- Hidden Power (Ground)

Porygon-Z is NOT available in X/Y. Wait till Poke Bank. And when it does come out: The lack of STAB REALLY hurts:
-Agility
-Tri Attack
-Dark Pulse
-Hidden Power (Fighting)
Nature: Modest
EVs: 96 HP/252 SAtk/160 Spe
Item: Life Orb
Ability: Download

or
-Tri Attack
-Dark Pulse
-Hidden Power (Fighting)
-Trick
Nature: Timid/Modest
EVs: 4 HP/252 SAtk/252 Spe
Item: Choice Scarf/Choice Specs
Ability: Adaptabilty

or
-Nasty Plot
-Tri Attack
-Dark Pulse
-Hidden Power (Fighting)
Nature: Timid
EVs: 4 HP/252 SAtk/252 Spe
Item: Life Orb
Ability: Adapability

Note that BoltBeam is acceptable over Dark Pulse + Hidden Power (Fighting)

Been trying to plan out my Heliolisk for awhile, and now that I got my shiny I guess I can actually go forward with it.

Main question from a competitive standpoint (and I know this isn't the best moveset, but I'm pretty adamant about having the first three), what should I have for the fourth move slot?

Surf
Rain Dance
Thunder
Focus Blast/Hyper Beam

Heliolisk is too frail to set up Rain Dance. It also lacks a good special Normal STAB (not even Hyper Voice or Boomburst, and before you ask, Razor Wind and Hyper Beam don't count as good Special STABs):
-Volt Switch/U-turn
-Thunderbolt/Thunder
-Hidden Power (Ice)/Grass Knot
-Focus Blast
Nature: Timid
EVs: 4 HP/252 SAtk/252 Spe
Item: Choice Specs/Life Orb
Ability: Dry Skin

Oh I should have mentioned that I am waiting for Pokebank.
Like i said this is simply so I have a single Pokemon to clean up the E4. Used with Exp Share to quickly grind.
I might consider your options for a competitive Porygon-Z so thanks but I imagine OHKOing everything with something 20 levels above is much faster.

I suppose that's true. Hyper Beam is lulzy, yes, but Focus Blast is pretty much the bane of my existence. I'll deliberate some more, but thanks.

BeefTaco November 7th, 2013 1:02 PM

I don't know if this the correct place to ask this but I need help with an error in Pokemon X. My cousin was playing pokemon X and while he was saving the game it froze, he turned it off and when he tried to turn it on again it said there was an error and he needed to turn the game off again. I tried to fix it by downloading the update for Pokemon X, but it still says error. I really don't know what to do, if this has happened to anyone else and they managed to fix it, I would appreciate some advice.

cookie_lovr November 7th, 2013 2:33 PM

Will people be able to bring Pokegen'd Pokemon through Pokebank? Just asking.

Not only does this make it easier to get Gen1-5, but if you bring IV6 Dittos of like the major natures than breeding the Gen6s will be a breeze.

~RNC~ November 7th, 2013 3:10 PM

Hey do any of you know if there's any way to get a cottonee or maractus in X and Y? I need it so I can breed Cotton Spore onto Hoppip

Hiatus November 7th, 2013 3:47 PM

Maractus could be found in Friend Safari. Keep adding more friends, and hope that one of them have it on their list. If they do, then you're good to go! Cottonee—it cannot be found anywhere. Maybe you could find it in the Friend Safari as well, but I'm not too sure. Say, why not request a Cottonee in the GTS? Someone might have one, somehow.

Thanks heading to look for it now.

Maverick827 November 7th, 2013 4:08 PM

How soon can you start breeding, exactly? I know you gain access to the Day Care shortly after getting the first badge, but I read somewhere that you can only leave one Pokemon there until obtaining a few more badges. Is this true?

Anyone know if you can get more then one shiny in one chain?

Nobody knows for sure yet, but since the chain continues even after you've encountered the shiny, I'm guessing you could. It may take you double the chaining numbers, though. For example, if you ran into a shiny Pokémon at about thirty chains, then you probably won't be able to encounter another one until you reach sixty. That's just a prediction, though. I've never stumbled into two shinies in one chain, personally, but definitely could have if I tried. Shiny chaining takes a lot of time, patience, and motivation, which simply I lack. d:

hiff8 November 7th, 2013 7:07 PM

I know that Mob encounters increase Shiny rates (because they're 5 pokemon, better odds). But I've heard along with that there's actual better individual shiny odds for each pokemon.

Earthbound93 November 7th, 2013 7:35 PM

Zubat hordes are in Connecting Cave and Gligar hordes are on Route 19.

This should help you if you need more info. :)

No you cannot. There's rumor that the shiny encounter rate is increased in the Safari though.
