The next generation of Pokémon is finally here! All-new 3D graphics, new monsters, new evolutions, new online social features, and a brand-new adventure is all packed nicely and tightly in the latest entry in the mega-hit franchise. And what do you know, the critics seem to love it, too!
So, who all will be joining me in this latest (and apparently greatest) journey into the world of Pokémon? Will you be the very best? Like no one ever was?
You can't catch a Persian in X and Y it needs to be transfered from a previous game via Pokebank. Here is the list of unobtainable pokemon in X and Y. It consists mostly of starters and legendarys and a few other pokemon. http://serebii.net/xy/unobtainable.shtml
In other news, I went to Barns and Nobel to check out the strategy guide for this game (for after I beat the story and if I still want to "catch them all" which I kind of think I may want to try) and it was sealed in plastic and $20. BOGUS. How am I supposed to know if it's going to be useful to me if I can't flip through it?
Also how are they going to sell something you can basically get for free on the internet by making it HARDER for people to decide if they want it by sealing it? So dumb.
Someone got two shiny Mareep in one hoard battle. That's a 1 in 16,777,216 chance.
I guess, when you think about it, all the thousands of people playing Pokemon X times all the thousands of battles that each person has, it probably happens pretty often.
That they're shiny? The pink ones are shiny. Only difference between shiny Pokemon and regulars are that the shiny ones are different-colored. There's about a 1 in 4000 chance of encountering one in the wild in X and Y.
While trying to fill up the local Pokedex, I went looking for Honedge. The first one I've ever seen in the game ended up being shiny! Of coure I caught her (its a girl).
By the by, anyone have Y version willing to send a Spritzee my way? I haven't encountered one in a trainer battle so I can't request one from the GTS. I'm willing to trade other X exclusives or breed something you're looking for.
I tried that already. If you see the pokemon in the wild or owned by an npc, or if an npc mentions the pokemon in conversation, then itll be searchable in the GTS. (Try searching for any of the Regis, you cant). Sadly, I have yet to encounter Spritzee in any way shape or form.
ah, you are correct. since i stopped at "S" i didnt go down far enough to notice the option to type in a name. Now I just hope someone will find my trade amongst all the requests for legends.
