Also, Looker only happened for me after I got the mega ring upgrade. I think the first time I went to lumiose after that it started.
Oh, I'll definitely have to play that then, but how/where do I get the mega ring upgrade?

That's an amazing spread, even for a safari Ditto =o You have someone on your list with a Ditto Safari?

I visited a certain imageboard's pokemon board, I have most of the useful safaris at this point despite having an awful grass one myself (oddish, petlil, gogoat). The ditto one took quite a lot of waiting to get, but I got one to add me eventually.

As for finding that particular Ditto, it did make up for this ridiculous exchange in Battle Test yesterday:

Quote:--Battle Start---
Go! Starmie!
Opponent sent out Glaceon!

Turn 1
Glaceon's Quick Claw let it move first!
Glaceon used Blizzard!
It's not very effective.
Starmie is frozen solid!

Turn 2
Glaceon's Quick Claw let it move first!
Glaceon used Blizzard!
It's not very effective.
Starmie is frozen solid!

Turn 3
Glaceon's Quick Claw let it move first!
Glaceon used Blizzard
It's not very effective.
Starmie is Knocked Out!

Turn 4
Go! Dragonite! (Dragonite outspeeds and has marvel scale to take a hit even if glaceon somehow gets a fourth quick claw activation in a row, and will easily OHKO it)
Glaceon's Quick Claw let it move first! (but this time I am prepared, right?)
Glaceon used Blizzard!
It's super effective! (Dragonite survives with a third of its health left, as predicted)
Dragonite is frozen solid! (wat)

Turn 5
Glaceon's Quick Claw let it move first!
Glaceon used Blizzard!
-POWER OFF-


In retrospect I should've taken the loss and saved the video as evidence but in the heat of the moment I was far too annoyed at the RNG to continue.

I think besides needing to beat the E4 for the 3rd poke to be available, you also need to have been online at the same time as the other person.

Yeah, we need to be online at the same time. It requires some coordination haha.

Speaking of Cannon, bro you never come online. I have no idea what your third is...

Add me mine is Poison
Just got my first level 100 in the game! It's my Noivern, and dang, I didn't expect it to be my first level 100 in X since I didn't even use it on my in-game team. And it's extremely fast with a 354 speed. Next up is probably my Talonflame which is level 97, followed by my level 96 Lapras, and then my level 95 Blaziken. And my team is finally finished as well. All I need now are the power items, which are going to take forever to get. I've also been getting a ton of money from the Restaurant Le Wow, which I spent 300,000 of it on a Charizardite X. About 40,000 more and i'll buy the Blastoisinite!
You do know that the Mega Stone prices can be lowered by increasing your Style points in Lumiose City, right?
Yeah, I know. I'm not only doing the Restaurant Le Wow thing for the mega stones though. I just went to the store, and figured I might as well buy one since I had a good amount of money. Most of the money is going towards proteins and stuff for ev training.
anyone got a infiltrator zubat....I got a calm tyrunt if anyone wants it or a lax flabebe...

You shouldn't need to buy proteins this gen unless you have a tonne of money and want to raise a pokemon's friendship fast really (and even for that you can just farm ev reducing berries very quickly). Horde Battles (thru sweet scent) with macho brace (and preferably pokerus, which is easy to get through wondertrade, or if you really need it I'm sure myself or someone else on the forum who has it can probably transmit it to you via trade) and the new exp share mechanics makes it extremely quick (if it isn't raining on the route with weepinbell hordes, that's 40 Attack EV's per battle with macho brace and pokerus - more in specific stats if you use the appropriate power item), just get a strong pokemon with surf (or earthquake if you aren't training on something that is immune) and something with sweet scent and off you go. Here's a guide to locations to use for it: http://nuggetbridge.com/articles/ev-trai...spots-x-y/

Failing that, super training is also pretty fast once you get the hang of it, and there are plenty of guides out there.

I'd also suggest leaving at least one mega stone until the price drops to 10,000 just so you know when you've pretty much maxed out your style (as without that it's hard to tell for sure).

When you have questions about pokemon games, Serebii is your friend:
http://www.serebii.net/xy/friendsafari.shtml

Currently working on my standard catcher smeargle (Technician, False Swipe/Spore/Soak/(Swords Dance, Mean Look, Recover or Rain Dance, depending on the game/area)), really missing the dark grass from last gen right now haha. After that, it's off to item farm off a few pokemon. Then I'll go back to breeding, but before I got the 5IV ditto I'd already bred most of the pokemon that interested me (that I can be bothered breeding - I don't have the patience to breed for HP Fire Protean Greninja), so I'm kinda at a loss for what to do with this thing haha.
This "Get a strong Pokemon of every type" thing is so difficult!!!
I want all of them to be above Lv 75, but my Alakazam is Lv 55.
I really prefer super training rather than just battling. I don't know why, but it seems faster for me. And I buy the vitamins for my pokemon that i'm super training because it's basically 100 evs to the stat so it goes by quicker. And the Restaurant Le Wow helps me level up my weaker pokemon, and get a lot of money in the process.
I beat the looker! Any other post-games?

Horde training =/= Regular training, and horde training is faster than super training, especially if you need to get the same stat EV trained on multiple pokemon.

EDIT: Quick calc, if you have pokerus and one macho brace (i.e. no spending BP on power items) and a tropius (gets sweet scent to attract hordes, earthquake to kill them (100%acc) and fly for transportation - though the latter isn't 100% necessary, so ursaring, venusaur and meganium could be used (the point being to leave maximum slots available for trainee pokemon, this leaves 5)), and use weepinbell hordes on rt 19 (2 atk per ko/10atk total, afaik the best hordes for a single stat only that are common (also not EQ immune as sweet scent/surf/fly is limited to smeargle (if you don't mind not being able to fly back for heals (eg have farmed leppas) ludicolo gets sweet scent and surf), though to be fair rt 19 rains quite often in my game).
You get one pokemon with pokerus+macho brace getting 40ATK per battle, and four others getting 20 each = 120IV's per battle, even if you're slow to get 12 ev's outta super training is going to take you about as long as finding a weepinbell horde and killing it, so this is about 10x faster.

If you for some reason have 5 of the appropriate power item and pokerus, then for 2EV things like weepinbell you get 12EV's per pokemon, so 60 per horde, times the number of pokemon you are training, for a max of [b]300[b]EV's per horde - though at that point you probably spent more time getting said power items than you'll ever save haha.

If you only need to train one pokemon in a stat with only 1EV hordes, as long as you have pokerus and macho brace (20EV's per battle) it's still slightly faster than super training (20EV's) as long as you don't need to train attack when both route 14 (bellsprout/ekans) and 19 (weepinbell) are rainy and therefore must use one of the routes where there is a common horde with EV's you don't want (which seems to happen to me every time I want to train multiple atk pokes lately). It still requires less attention/effort though, so you can do it while watching tv or whatever too.
