[TheTurtleOnceCalledGod]

So far, leveling is a grind in this game, more so than other pokemon games.

[.Nu-13]

Yeah, exp farming is sooooooooooooo boring

[Cin]

Hello, Lucky Egg, makes it so much more simple. I've not grinded nearly as hard I have in the past (I got Deino up 25 levels in one day) . Heck I used to spend several times longer training than I did playing through the gyms/E4. How else would I have my team at Lv 65 so fast?

[Twig]

Yeah, exp farming is sooooooooooooo boring

 

I didn't even need to grind with the lucky egg. I just battled the wild as I went through the routes. Just finished ghetsis. Now to explore the other half of unova...

 

Also, I love dem bridges.

[.Nu-13]

I don't have Egg yet :/

[Cin]

When you get up to Lv 21 you could use a Will-O-Wisp/Hex combo, on Yamask. Impish is rather a bad nature, since Yamask (and its evolution) relies on Spl Atk rather than Defense. (Although Defense is its highest stats). Impish reduces Spl Atk.

 

Careful doesn't really benefit a physical attacker, since it increases defense, but is neutral to attack. I suppose with an average defense however, that could be useful.

 

Lonely, increases attack, but Sigilyph doesn't rely on attack, they rely on special attack. And Sigilyph's move set is more or less all special attack based, bar the last move it learns.

 

You will find Veekun and Bulbipedia useful for deciding natures.

 

(I use Veekun over Serebii sometimes, because of the bars used to show the stats distribution)

 

Lucky Egg is from Pro. Juniper in Chargestone Cave.

 

Not paying attention to natures is how I ended up with a freak of a Milotic, a physical attacker, when Milotics are always specialists.

[Tentacruel]

Help guys

Focus on special moves with Sigilyph, with Pignite a mix, leaning physical, and for Yamask, Special.

 

 

Evolve Pignite and Yamask asap.

 

With Yamask, give it Shadow Ball when the opportunity presents itself, and give it one other attack, which is up to you. My personal preference is Grass Knot until you get something better. Also, teach it Will-O-Wisp or Toxic. I prefer Will-O-Wisp. If you plan on using one of those often, you can use Hex instead of Shadow Ball.

 

Sigilyph has some decent support options that are worth looking at, while for damaging moves, Pyschic or Psybeam and Air Slash are what you want to use.

 

With Pignite, you might as well go with all damaging moves, as it can learn little else.

[.Nu-13]

So it would be

 

~Hex

~Will'o'Wisp

~Shadow Ball

~Grass Know

 

for Yamask?

 

And can someone give me a good movest for Sigilyph? Don't feel like checking all his moves...

 

And what about items? For Sigilyph, I'll probably go with Life Orb. With its Abillity it's pure hax. And for Yamask?

 

And how much do Natures affect stats?

[Cin]

10% sway on the stats.

 

If its in an in-game team doesn't matter drastically, but I think your Yamask will suffer.

[.Nu-13]

Eh, so I'll just catch another one

 

What Nature should it have?

[Cin]

It rather depends on the whole moveset you require, to which stat you 'sacrifice', but def. not Quiet, as that reduces Speed, which to be honest Cofagrigus' speed is awful anyhow.

 

Modest: +Sp Atk -Atk

Mild: + Sp Atk - Def

Quite: +Sp Atk - Speed

Rash: +Sp Atk - Sp Def

 

I'm not really the best person to ask about the best natures.

[Grunt Issun]

I chose Snivy... now I'm having trouble on the second gym, and I can't catch Victini, tips?

[DeathSDelano]

^ go the the grass just outside of pinwheel forest entrance and catch a fighting pokemon such as throh, sawk, or timburr.

than train it to about 17-20

[Grunt Issun]

Alright, I have a level 23 Timburr, so I guess I should just spam Wake-up slap?

[Tentacruel]

Golurk can learn Fly. How epic is that?

[DeathSDelano]

Dropped Throh for Scrafty and now working on getting to the 7th gym than after that get druddigon for a 5th slot inplace of scolipede (im just gonna use 5 pokes again against e4 for main story so i dont have to worry about what im gonna put away for zekrom

[Flame Dragon]

Golurk can learn Fly. How epic is that?

I love that he can do that. Really, it should be a rule that if you use him you give your mech his booster rockets.

 

Anyway, just collected all the plates. How do you get past the second floor?

[DeathSDelano]

Has anyone else noticed the large number of rare candies this game compared to the past games (using dowsing machine(
