The DSi isn't region locked, which is why you were able to do it then. But unfortunately, the 3DS is the first Nintendo handheld system to be region locked :c Not sure about the French DS/Japanaese games situation. Perhaps they were just events that happen to be available in both Japan and France?

Do you get the Shiny Charm by catching all the Pokemon or just seeing them?

You have to catch them all. You don't actually have to have one copy of all 719 species in your PC boxes though; just having owned the Pokemon at one point is good enough.

If you can't clone with using their usual method, I believe they might have patched it.

Can I sell off the clothes I don't want? Accidentally bought stuff when I was trying to get that sundae skirt.

I have Pokemon X and my Zorua was traded for a Darkrai through GTS.
Isn't Darkrai a special event pokemon?
Then why can't I trade Hoopa on GTS? Do I need to wait for this Hoopa event to be over in order to trade on there?

Darkrai is hacked. Yes, event Pokémon cannot be traded over the GTS. Their special ribbons prevent them from being traded there. Hackers remove the ribbon, so the event 'mons can go through the GTS.

If I were to pick a starter besides Charizard, such as Blastoise, would I be able to get both of Charizard's mega stones later or just one?

Only one. Which one you'll get depends on what version you're playing on.

Once they are triggered, does anyone know the actual probability for the appearance of a pokemon with a hidden ability in a friend safari? Everywhere I've looked references a "chance," but I've yet to see an actual percentage/source.

Edit: after more digging, I found a comment on bulbapedia where a user tested mons with two slotted abilities and the percentage appears to be roughly 33% for all abilities. That only leaves the question of probabilities when there is only one slotted ability.

Hey, I don't want to double up types before I head into the Elite Four. Which Pokemon would be more valuable against those trainers: Steelix or Lucario?

I'd say Lucario. While Ground moves are effective, the problem is Steelix focuses way too much on its Defense, whereas Lucario is more offensive and learns much better move coverage.

So, I was wondering, how do I know if my local McDonald's is doing the Hoopa event? Also, since the event ends on the 23rd can I still receive the gift at the pokemon center after the 23rd or does it end then as well? Is the pokemon still receivable the WHOLE day of the 23rd, or does the event end on that day? Thank you all for your insight and information, it is greatly appreciated!!!!! :)

I'm not sure if there's any way to know if your local McDonald's is participating in this event or not, other than visiting the place and seeing it for yourself, unfortunately.

If ONLY the super sized Pumpkaboo is holding the Miracle Seed, then will having a pokemon that has the Compound Eyes ability (which increases the chance of finding a wild pokemon holding an item) increase the chance of running into a supersized Pumpkaboo?

Also, sinc eyou can use in game double battles (like Restaurant Le Nah) to teach Smeargle moves from your partner, can you use this to duplicate items? So for example, I have two pokemon, one with no item. I use my main pokemon (Delibird, Smeargle, whoever) to bestow it's item to the second pokemon and then on the next turn have it use Recycle, will I effectively be duplicating my items once the battle is over? (and before anyone says it, yes you can in fact teach Smeargle moves using this technique at Restaurant Le Nah as I do it repeatedly)

No, it'll just increase the chances of a super-sized Pumpkaboo holding one if you run into one of that size.

Unfortunately you can't. Recycle only works if you consume the item, transferring it will cause Recycle to fail/not restore the item.

I'm genuinely surprised that after 2 years I can't find a clear answer on this question, but how do I get Venusauraite in Pokemon y? I chose Charmander (and got the charizardite for that) and ended up getting Blastoisinite from my other game and met the guy in the stone emporium that is selling Blastoisinite for $100,000, but am I screwed now and cannot get Venusaurite at all, or what? As I said, I have looked through multiple message boards and literally no one seems to KNOW how to get it, just guessing or saying to use Power Saves. I don't want to trade for it if there's a way for me to get it in game, but the problem is I can't find anything to tell me conclusively whether or not it can be done. Even Serebii only says "Lumiose City" with no further details listed. Thanks for any help!

If you didn't get Venusaurite from Professor Sycamore, you're able to buy it from a man for 300,000 in Lumiose City (his stock changes every day) after you finish the game.

I believe that guy will sell you the other starter Mega Stone after you buy the current Mega Stone he's offering you.

Oh good, okay, thanks! I'll buy that now and check again tomorrow (as long as I didn't lose my chance completely!)

All the legendaries encountered within X/Y are shiny locked, so it's not possible to get a shiny.
