As we all know after you connect to the internet, you will be able to see GTS, Trading, and all that other good stuff in the yellow page below the Pokemon x or y game your playing. And then there is the Favorites List which is also in that same function. See I want to move people I have in my favorites list and register them as my friends. I know how to register friends, but the info I need to register them(especially the friend code), does not show in the people who are in my Favorite's List, I have tried several things to find a solution. Call a game shop-no help, ask a friend-no help, view yahoo videos for technical solutions- no help. Any help would be gladly appreciated. Thanks and respond back to this message when you have a solution. Thank You.

Sincerely, Chad

Hello, i was looking for a few a answer about the new gens before i buy a 3ds and pokemon y since i havent played pokemon since emerald ( though i played the old gens thousands of times lol) and didnt know anything about EV, breeding, and natures. I simply built a team i thought looked cool an played till the elite 4 lol. ive had a huge craving to get back into it and this time around want to go more in depth with building teams and playing competitively since im older now and can understand much more. I was wondering if anyone could tell me how online battles work on the 3ds ( are battles matched for me or do i need to find friends to battle), is there alot to do after you beat the main story, and how or where can i find other players to trade with? I would really appreciate help, im kinda lost. Pokemon y will be the first pokemon game ive played thats not for GBC or GBA 😕

You can find online battles by going to Battle Spot. Just connect to PSS and click Battle Spot from the PSS menu. You can choose Free Battles or Rating Battles (in Rating Battles, you gain and lose points if you win or lose, respectively). Then you'll get randomly matched up with other people on Battle Spot.

After you beat the main story, you can challenge the Battle Maison, which has a style similar to competitive battles (levels are normalized, strategy and team building is required, etc.) It's a good way to practice, and you'll also win items and TMs that are useful in competitives.

Good luck :)

The PSS is the bottom of your screen most of the time, and it's in the game. And, no, it's almost never hard to find someone to play with. Pokemon X and Y are two of the best-selling games in the series, and people from all over the world play it. So, you will almost always find someone to play with. :)

Oh, I forgot to mention. I don't know if you already know this or not, but a new type was introduced in X/Y called the Fairy type. I suggest you Google a new type matchup table of some sort to understand them better.

Hiii - Well, I used to play pokemon back in the day, looking to get back into it, so have a few questions regarding some of the changes that have been made.

Punching bags - How do I get more - specifically, the reset bag - I've been punching the Default black bag for about 20 minutes and nothing has dropped, this doesn't seem right. Do I need to meet certain criteria, or be at a certain point in the game??

Also, EVS, not entirely sure how they work - Say I have a level 40 mon with Maxed EVs trained in the stats I wanted - Can I now fight any mon I want regardless of the EVs they would usually give, up until say, level 100, without this negatively effecting my mons stats?

Thanks for time

I'm pretty sure it's just random on getting the reset bag.

Yeah, once you've maxed out your EVs you can just fight whatever you want, your EVs won't get replaced or anything.

I am sorry if this is in the wrong section. in Snowbelle City you can have a lady play a jazzy remixed song of a town from Diamond and Pearl. What is the name of that city, and what is the name of that song?

I'm almost certain it's the music for Jubilife City.

I have a question about the GTS, If you deposit a Pokemon with Pokerus and it has not been traded for a day or more. Will the Pokerus go away?

Guys i just bought pokebank yesterday and it was fine. But today when i want to open it again today, everytime i tried save and quit it gave me error code 006 0112. When I google it everyone said that the i should change my DNS to googles, but it still not working and i still cant save and quit from my pokebank.

I want to ask, is this problem come from bank's server or my connection? Any solution guys? I cant find the answer from google cause its all old threads from 1-2 years ago :(

Alongside changing DNS, I would also try reinstalling the app. If this problem still persists, I'd recommend you to call Nintendo at 1-800-255-3700 and see what kind of suggestions they're able to provide.

YOu get the shiny charm which gives you an increased chance for shiny pokemon (This is the national pokedex).

There is a simple questions and answers thread for things like this for future reference.

Ok I want to buy a Jap. X game but my 3DS is US, I know this is most likely just a simple answer, but google says things about PAL and region locks and such, but will the Japanese game work on my 3DS?

The 3DS in general is region-locked, so if you wanted to get a Japanese copy of the games you also need a Japanese 3DS, and same goes for other regions - you can't play a game from a region if you don't have a corresponding system.

Ok sorry for maybe the dumbness here, but I have heard and with the recent shiny events that ppl from France have the french DS but the Japanese game, are other regions and exception? I mean I bought the Jap. games every time for my US DSi and they work just firne, but never tried with the 3DSs.

Starting my first real attempt (following a feeble attempt back in the Black 2 days) at the Masuda Method.. Must have gone through about 100 Cyndaquils so far. How many eggs does it usually take you guys?
Related, does any EXP make an event Pokemon worthless?

Some real life events are strict:
- Codes based events are 100% strictly region locked. Note that EU regions can share codes, while UK, US and AU cannot share codes.
- Real life events are usually region free, unless otherwise stated. For example, Hoopa can be downloaded if you watched the movie this year, regardless your 3DS and Game Card's region. While the Movie Legendary Pokémon were region-locked.

Unfortunately breeding for shinies, even with the Masuda method and the shiny charm can still take a while and just comes down to pure luck. Sometimes you'll get a shiny within the first 10 hatches, and sometimes it won't be until after several hundred hatches. Pray to RNG gods.

As for the second question.....it kinda depends on who you're talking to. Some people prefer that event pokes are untouched, some don't mind if it's gotten some exp or EVs.
