6th Gen X/Y Quick Q&A

[L0RD G3NGAR]

1. Yes. Seems to be the same as always.

2. Nothing really. The 3DS has a code itself now for all games played on that system. You add people outside of the game with their code (3DS and X/Y are the same thing) and they add you then you're considered friends.

3. The Friend Safari is a new area you can reach after you beat the game. Every friend code is a different area with 3 Pokemon all of a certain type. Again, this depends on the person's friend code. You can get a lot of Pokemon otherwise not catchable, they sometimes have their hidden abilities, and apparently the chance of finding shinies is higher there too. Note that if the friend you add hasn't visited the Friend Safari yet or you two have not both been online at the same time at least once, you'll only be able to find 2 of the possible Pokemon in their safari.

Hope I helped~

Yes you did help thank you ^^ but the friend code needed for the friend Safari, can that be any one of them (3Ds friend code, X&Y Friend code)

To clarify, there's technically no such thing as an X/Y code. It's just your 3DS code. People say X/Y code to differentiate it from the older games codes.

Oh, lol. I feel like a idiot now lol. XD

 

[Yuuto]

No problem. I'm fairly bad at explaining things so I'm used to having to clarify things again. Sorry~ xD

In the future, if you only have a few quick questions use this thread.

How do you unlock new clothes in the game? I've seen lots of trainers with really neat clothes/outfits but all I ever get are different color variations of the same stuff. I have already beaten the game and unlocked the Lumiose boutique.

Hold on—which birds are you talking about, exactly? If it's Zapdos, Articuno, and Moltres, then no, you don't encounter them on the same spot the first time; the first time you encounter them, it should be in a completely random spot, just like the way how you encountered Raikou, Suicune, and Entei in G/S/C and Latios and Latias in R/S/E. When you run into these birds for the eleventh time, though, they'll immediately fly to the Sea Spirts Den. That's the place where you can finally have them captured. Make sure to be prepared! :)

Yes I'm talking about the legendary birds, and I ran into moltres in the same spot on both my X and Y game, I found it weird my self, so I thought I would ask to make sure.

Someone please help me understand Online battling by answering this question.
If I have a Slowpoke: Adamant, 252HP, 252Att, 6Def, and I level it to 50 and bring it online, will it be any inferior to someone who has the same exact pokemon + Evs AND IVs, but they level it up to 100 and bring it online?

are there any male hair styles that are unlocked after the medium perm?

The stock in the boutiques changes on a daily basis (i think)... Dunno if that answered your question

Is there a vs seeker in these games?

It should be exactly the same and it's probably half the point of online automatically changing levels to 50.

No there isn't. Sorry about that. It was VS Recorder I saw.

Where is a Dusk Stone? I am about to fight the elite four and I want to have my Duoblade evolved before-hand...

 

[Eruption]

An ex-Team Flare member will give you a Dusk Stone in Laverre City.

Important moves are learnt at much higher level, most of the time.

I see the flare person but he won't give me anything...

 

[Hiatus]

The Team Flare person over at Laverre Town will give you a Dusk Stone only after you're done with defeating the league, not before. If you want to get yourself a Dusk Stone sooner, then you should visit the second floor of Terminus Cave. The stone is blocked by a boulder, so you'll need a Pokémon with Rock Smash to get to it. d: Another way to obtain Dusk Stone is by playing a super-training mini-game called "Watch Out! That's One Tricky Second Half." You'll need to have a Pokémon with maximized EVs, though, before you're able to play this game. Personally, I haven't played it yet, but the game does sound quite fun! :)

I have a question: Does anyone know where the name rater is? :D

The name rater is in Camphrier Town.

Does anyone know where to find a Flying Gem, or any of the Power Gems that are not Normal? Thanks in advance.
