Yemachu Posted December 29, 2014 Report Share Posted December 29, 2014 Also having the shiny Beldum/Metang/Metagross with you when you speak with Mr. Stone triggers a (small) conversation about it. Same for the note on Steven's table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted December 29, 2014 Report Share Posted December 29, 2014 I still need to determine an appropriate Poke to deal with the other categories: Cute, Smart, Tough and Cool. I refuse to use LC/NFEs though, because I do mostly battles + as a result, they should be fully evolved. If I ever get the drive to breed a new Metagross, probably can use that for Tough/Cool contests (depends on what its movepool is) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted December 30, 2014 Report Share Posted December 30, 2014 I did not know that was a thing. Thats pretty interesting. Yeah it is interesting. I decided to put the Beldum in my team so I can read that dialogue. I noticed this in my AS run and was utterly baffled by what he was talking about. I knew he was referencing something, but the first part was so ambiguous, because he said something about the "white beauty" I traveled with. Now I realise he was referring to the shiny Metagross. Didn't realise that was the trigger. Out of curiosity did you watch act 2 of the Mega Evo special? If not, that probs be the reason why you were baffled by what Steven was referring to in that dialogue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cin Posted December 30, 2014 Report Share Posted December 30, 2014 I only remember ever rematching in Emerald once (Against Norman) so it's not a common thing so I'm not surprised if people don't remember. Shame you can't force it like you could in HGSS, but I suppose maybe the next easy rematches will be if/when they remake Diamond/Pearl as long as they keep the rematch from Platinium.

I refuse to use LC/NFEs though, because I do mostly battles + as a result, they should be fully evolved. If I ever get the drive to breed a new Metagross, probably can use that for Tough/Cool contests (depends on what its movepool is) The contest levels that do not yield a Ribbon can be easily beat: give your pokemon enough pokeblocks matching the contest's type (or rainbow pokeblock(+)). The amount of points you get from that round is almost, if not, enough to beat the entire competition.Sporting 2 moves of the contest tpye with a somewhat different effect can be somewhat beneficial; scores better at the start/end of the round, getting pumped up (you score 1 more point for each star), etc. Only Toughness is left for me to do; my Latios has beaten all other types. Here is a list of the moves I thought him (at least from what I can remember); this is not to say that this is the best configuration: Cool: Thunderbolt, Dragonbreath; Beautiful: Surf, Psychock, Dragon Pulse; Cute: Tough Claws, Grass Knot, Return Clever: Roost, Secret Power, Calm Mind. On a similar note, it seems as though feeding your Pokemon Pokeblock (or winning contest; though I think the former) raises your Pokemon's affection; similar to Pokemon Amie.

-Berserker- Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 Won the first two levels of the Cool contest with a recently caught Braviary. It already came with Slash, Air Slash, Tailwind and Defog. I'm sure I can beat the next two levels if I feed it some blocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Βyakuya Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 Milotic has been such an amazing Pokemon... My Emilia (Miltoic name) has Marvel Scale combined with Rest/Sleep Talk duo along with Scald for the STAB + Burn chance and Dragon Tail. Pretty awesome with Ferrothorn and other trap setters and Dragon Tail ranks up additional damage. Only relative weaknesses would be Grass and Electric, but Ferrothorn and Gliscor buffers it all out so well. Add on top tough IVs and max EVs in HP and Def and she's a decent tank that can stand up to most Dragon Beaters and Talonflame. Not to mention Rest/Sleep Talk marks as a combo in Cute competitions, and Scald/Dragon Tail takes care of Tough ones. All the moves are TM replaceable, so fitting movesets for Beauty competitions will also be a piece of cake. She ain't a Shiny but she'll be so ideal for all-round contest winning and Doubles trolling. <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 Went up against Wattson last night. Meme(Marshtomp) just Mud One-Shot'd everything, and the I wound up fudging the fight to end up facing against his Magneton last. Switched to Hyenard(Mighteana) who subsequently did Intimidate then Snarl to cut it's ATK then lower it's SP.ATK, to which, I then did Howl and Bite to utterly destroy his last Pokemon. Apparently my game really wanted Wastton dead... .... I miss the TM for Shockwave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myst Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 I have no reliable way of training my Pokes, even to Level 50, without rebattling E4 (takes 2 runs WITH LUCKY EGG) -.- GL rematches should've been in, yeah. Or Restaurant Le Wow kind of place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cin Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 Did you miss the Mauville Food court? That should assist a little, I got all my team to Lv 56 without grinding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Warden Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 So I'm just diddling with Contests, and I find it hilarious that the Castform you get given has 1/3 of its Beauty stat filled, considering all 3 weather moves it knows combos with its 4th move Weather Ball. I really like that kind of consideration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Griffin Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 Did you miss the Mauville Food court? That should assist a little, I got all my team to Lv 56 without grinding. I'm assuming they mean for mass leveling, such as trying to fill a pokedex and needing to level a few hundred pokes. Ideally you want to train 5 pokemon to max evolution in a few battles, and without the League's cutscenes and distance between battles. The best way in this game is to get a bunch of hideouts registered with 6 level 100 blisseys that suicide themselves, its a bit cheaty and requires online, but it works fast, generally levels the whole team to 50-60 from below 10 in one fight.

Myst Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 Ah nah, usually for competitive. But in gen 5, I used the courts in 4th gym city for mass battling. And for some reason, I can't get the Blisseys to be Level 100, even with that computer thingo, and you can battle the Blissey teams only once a day so.. ._.

You have to favourite the hideout, battle them there, invite them to your hideout, battle them there, then kick them out of your hideout ready for the next day.

In XY, I always used the Battle Chateau for grinding. The Audino trainers gave lots of Exp, and money was a non-issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elijah~ Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 I agree. Why couldn't something like the Battle Chateau exist in Hoenn? Since you already have the Batlle Maidon already at the Battle Resort and more easier ways to earn money now there really isn't a point for it.

Jord200 Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 Ok, I have to ask. Has anyone gotten those two TMs in the Safari Zone? It looks like you need BOTH the Mach and Acro Bike to get them.... I got Solarbeam, but it looks like there is two others. Same with the Absolite.

You have to advertise the bikes, then the bike shop owner gives you the second. Mach bike in the desert, Acro bike just before or after Fortree (I forgot), either bike on battle resort island thing. You find someone to talk to, they compliment the bike, and then they don't appear again after you leave and come back, so you might not find 'em because you talked to them before.
