I some how missed the Magikarp trainer. Sigh, all those speed EVs.

Who needs speed EVs when super training exists?

 

You could just Super Train. When you unlock Tier 3 of the challeneges, each one gives 12 points to whatever stat you want, so it's quite good.

The shitty part is that in order to unlock those challenges, the pokemon has to have been fully ev'd at some point in time.

Um...no? You unlock Tier 4 by having a fully EV'd Pokemon. You can unlock Tier 3 by completing all of Tier 2.

I unlocked tiers 2-3 with my Amaura and everyone else had access to them.

 

You get Tier 4 stuff by getting the medal on the first 18 challenges with someone. At least, I assume you need the medals, when I beat the last one I already had all medals, so I don't know if you still get it without all the medals.

I'm currently grinding BP points at the Battle Maison and just faced a Gengar and I lost to it, because somehow, his normal Gengar was able to outspeed my Lax Nature and maxed out EV Speed Mega Alakazam.

Either the Battle Maison is fucking rigged or the programmer's were smart enough to program that 1 Gengar with a Speed+ nature and maxing out its EV Speed.

 

Thank god its easy to grind for points even on the lowest difficulty.

 

EDIT: Had to Sword Dance twice against a Shroomish because an unboosted Shadow Claw from Aegislash only took away less than 1/3 from Shroomish health. The Shroomish didn't had any stats boosts. :mellow:

EDIT 2: A normal unboosted Scolipede without Speed Boost was able to outspeed my Mega Alakazam.

I'm now convinced that the Battle Maison is rigged.

Anyone got a female Skrelp and/or female Amaura they're willing to give me? My Friend Code's on the first page, so it'd be much appreciated. I've made some choices that I regret and I don't wanna have to reset for the third time to do them over. ;3;

(Final team's gonna replace Aegislash for Dragalge, and maybe Tyrantrum for Aurorus. I'll have two Dragons and four Pokemon overall that're weak to Ice, but oh well.)

Well, I just went and severely raped Valerie almost practically with Page. Kain handled her Mawile; though, I won't lie, it was just immensely cruel of me to set down two sets of Toxic Spikes.

 

THIS JUST IN FOLKS: Serebii now have the XY movesets of Pokemon, I repeat, Serebii has the movesets logged in.

In terms of outspeeding your normal Alakazam. And just so you know, Battle Tower/Frontier/Maison Pokemon have always had positive natures and Max EVs. 

 

Alakazam, at a neutral nature, lands at 172 Speed with a 31 IV. Lets assume the Scolipede you were fighting has say a Jolly nature, and 31 IVs in his Speed, and said Speed is maxed. He lands at 180.

 

So Scolipede's in the Maison WILL outspeed your Alakazam. 

 

As for the Mega, it lands at 202 Speed. HOWEVER, the TURN you mega evolve, it will use the BASE Alakazam's Speed. So for the turn you evolve, Mega Zam will only have 172 Speed and Scolipede will still outspeed you. 

 

Outside of that turn, the Scolipede would need a Choice Scarf to outspeed.

Oh, I always thought that as soon as a Pokemon Mega-Evolves it gains all the stat changes immediately during the same turn, since it does gain it's Ability that comes with the Mega. Guess I need to do some proper training of my Alakazam and my other Pokemon as well.

Just out of curiosity, what move did said Gengar use?
 

Where not to save: (Blue areas)

I find it amusing how Nintendo actually took the time to figure out where exact you can't save, and where you should save instead.
