Catch rate is not 100%. I chucked a Luxury Ball on turn 1 and it did not capture successfully.

Huh, I did the same thing on turn 1 and caught it first try. Good thing to note on that, though.
Sheer cold is 100% accuracy because I used it once and it hit = your logic

So I'm SR'ing for CosplayChu right now. I got one that's Naive nature with 31/28-31/30-31/27-31/?/31 in stats. Should I keep it? Kinda wanted the 31 in both attacks and speed.
On a side note, does the game seem like it has limited pokemon options in the beginning or is it just me? Seems like generally the same pokemon availability as the originals and I was kinda hoping otherwise. Bummer :(

nah...the transformation cutscene is still there.....no diff...
Yeah, you are right. I was pretty dumb with that sorry attempt on that assumption. I'll make sure to make sound, accurate judgments next time. Go on and take more shots at that blunder if you wish. I kinda deserved it. XD
I can confirm that nothing happens after 100 wins because I watched someone do it on a stream today. Hopefully something at 200 so the cutscene wasn't a complete waste.
That's awful, who would pick a path that has quicksand? Think of all the extra seconds wasted...!
Lol I just caught Kyogre in a regular pokeball!!
Can't get my Gardevoir to fuck anything that resembles a human, so no positive changes that I'm aware of.
In all seriousness so this isn't just a joke, I don't believe there are any changes to breeding since the miners would have informed us.
Catch rate isn't 100%.
He almost swept my whole team, I fainted him because he wouldn't get in the ball. Then when he came back I just used a Master Ball.
w/e
I kept getting wrecked by Primal Groudon, so I devised the ultimate strategy for catching it:
EDIT: No synch, but ended up with Naughty (31/31/17/11/19/31) on first try. Definitely not bothering any more with it. lol
- Spam Flash with Raichu
- Spam Flash with Kecleon
- Fling Light Ball with Gallade for paralysis
- Go to Skarmory and hope it doesn't Rest
- Taunt with Skarmory
- Spam Double Team with Skarmory to avoid Lava Plume
- Use Drill Peck to weaken Groudon
- Pray it doesn't crit
- Alternate throwing Luxury Balls (catch rate of regular Poke Balls) and using Taunt
- ???
- Profit

You have to hand it to Gamefreak. Gen VI has the easiest leveling curve yet thanks to the Exp. Share, the most lenient rules regarding legendaries thanks to their respawn, and even small added bonuses like the chance of critical capture, yet the Primals are probably some of the hardest legendaries to capture so far.
Along with the mention of aal the newwww things they have added iv'e come to notice through all my battle in AS that the Critical hit ratio chance has increased more than usual if im not wrong?....If so i love thay aspect js xD, Overall with all thse new features, including the trainer hordes i can't help but be very mad that they got rid of the previous way of poke'block blending AND OH MY GOSH, WHY DID THEY GET RID OF THE LOTTERY CORNER
The lottery is in the same place it was in RSE. Just talk to the woman on the right behind the counter of the department store's first floor.
We're both talking about the Slot machines right?
They are gone, some laws prevent gambling in children's games now. That being said, be more concerned with how the Safari Zone is basically just a route now Q.Q
I cant remember if it was free last time but thank goodness for being able to fight the pokemon residing inside x'D
How are hordes activated in Meteor Falls? Couldn't find anything on Serebii.
I have never ran into any in the wild i believe when they said trainer hordes, they were saying only trainer hordes
There are lists of where to encounter wild hordes on Serebii, so I'm assuming they're still in the game.
Can anyone help? I wanna catch a Bagon. :]
The bagon are in a certain area only in meteor falls
Its a small room with a small area of land...with a pond then another area of land at the back...its a cave entrance in Meteor falls...its an empty room, cant miss it
I'm sorry if someone already brought this up, but I've read through this entire thread and don't remember seeing it being talked about.
In the Battle Resort, there's a house near the eastern dock with a Magma/Aqua couple. After you talk to them, a cutscene happens and they tell you to come back later. Go outside and come back in and they'll give you a Camerupt and Sharpedo, respectively (you need a free slot to claim them). The Sharpedo is Adamant with Rough Skin holding a Wacan Berry and knows Poison Fang (which I think is an Egg Move?), while the Camerupt is Quiet with Magma Armor and holding a Passho Berry.
