Priority moves or faster pokemon wreck it easily. It's annoying but doesn't do much damage, either. Abusing Kings Rock and Skill Link gives more overall damage.Blazevoir wrote:
Technician with Fake Out, Fling (with King's Rock), and U-Turn's the most annoying setup when it comes to flinching...
Obviously that can be countered, but not a lot of Pokemon have Inner Focus.
So we get PokéMiles for transferring, huh... I wonder how many people are gonna abuse this /o/Serebii wrote:
CoroCoro featured some details on Pokémon Bank, due for release in two weeks. It didn't provide much new but did detail that there is a controller of the Bank system and she is Brigette, the same character as from Pokémon Box: Ruby & Sapphire, and that you receive PokéMiles when you transfer your Pokémon and confirms that the Hiker in Ambrette Town and Punk Girl in Kiloude City will have special things happen when you have transferred certain Pokémon, specifically Genesect and Kyurem respectively.

Glad to know there's someone else that loves it as much as I do.

Pokémon Bank - Overview Trailer
In anticipation of its release in two weeks, The Pokémon Company has issued an overview trailer for the upcoming release, Pokémon Bank. It confirms that you can transfer entire boxes immediately within the Poké Transporter system that comes with it and that Pokémon Bank has advanced search filter systems akin to the ones in the boxes on Pokémon X & Y
You can also choose Battle Points to be earned rather than PokéMiles in Pokémon Bank when you deposit Pokémon
If your annual Bank fee ends, you can still withdraw your Pokémon for a short time, but will be lost afterwards forever. The period of time has yet to be announced.
Pokémon Bank ignores the 3DS's region lock so all games can be read and used for depositing/withdrawing Pokémon so if you have a US game, you can put it on a Japanese 3DS with Pokémon Bank installed and put Pokémon on there
just choose wisely the version and starter *cough* *cough* *Tepig*Snepif wrote:
Now I'm regreting the fact that I skipped gen V and I gotta play it from scratch so I can pass my mons from Diamond :/
Yeah, my first Mega-Gengar encounter was pretty much this. I let my Zapdos down it (along with itself) after I cleared the rest save for his last Pokémon.Jinxy wrote:
i keep mixing up cosmic power and stored power asdfjsdlgjldfg
But rating battles are back which is cool
EDIT: Gengar tries to use Destiny Bond on my last pokemon. Unfortunately, my last pokemon is Mega Scizor and his attempts allowed me to go to +6. Then I stall a bit more until he runs out of PP, and Bullet Punch wreck him and the Garchomp lying in wait. He could have won if he actually attacked instead of trying to gimmick me down; I had to OHKO Garchomp or else he would use Fire Blast, and the only way for me to do it was a +6 Bullet Punch!
^ Pretty much this, though I'm not gonna say why. What I CAN say is: just don't get your hopes up too much.Laharl wrote:

I'm not criticizing for no reason.Snepif wrote:
It's an amazing game, dunno what you guys talking about. People always like to criticize just because. It's the best Pokémon game so far. And it's a bit silly to criticize the game while posting periodically in this thread (and having it linked to your signature), isn't it? Get it and you will love it, BrokenArrow.
Of course it's always "cooler" to act/say that you don't like it, so once you get it and play it you are free to do so as well, I guess.
When you have to make the game yourself instead of allowing yourself to be taken in by the game, that's when people start to see issues. I'd agree with you about the fun of those aspects, but they are not the entire game, they are things you do post-game, generally. The pre or "intermediate" game was subpar at best, even for Pokemon standards.Snepif wrote:
That is indeed true, but that isn't nearly as impactful to the awesomeness of the game as the graphics, new features, new mons, etc. are. It's just a plot thingy and let's be honest one doesn't play Pokémon (ANY of them) because it has a good and captivating plot. We play it because we feel we are in an adventure and want to discover new places and mons, or to fill our pokédex, or because of the competitive aspect (which is better in this game also), not because our rival or the bad guys team is amazing.
