i got a Jolly newly hatched Gible. proceeded to EV train it, and grind it to level 50. it's got horrid attack IVs but perfect speed somehow. lucky or what?
i have a friend who got a Fennekin and other people receiving Phantump and Pumpkaboo only for them to evolve into Trevenant and Gourgeist...
Is there any way to get a feel for what Pokemon are available early game based on the Coastal/Mountain/something dexes? I wanna start planning my party out already.
(Also there doesn't seem to be a nice casual XY-spoileriffic discussion thread outside of this one.. So I kinda feel for the other...
I've been doing fine with just Google Docs, wouldn't recommend it if you need any specialized features though.
I'm not a huge tech junkie, but I'd normally tell you not to get a Mac if you're planning to upgrade it or mess around with the parts. I've gone through a couple of Acer laptops myself...

Aura Boosted STAB Super Effective -> 1.5 x 1.5 x 2 = 4.5x damage
Aura Reversed Super Effective -> 2 / 1.5 = 1.3x damage
Aura Reversed STAB...
Gonna start off from the day that I started lurking here, I guess.
Day 19: What is the most unfortunate thing that has happened to you while playing Pokemon?
Found a shiny Weezing. Not that I particularly love Weezing, but it was a shiny! This was while I was grinding my overleveled powerhouse...
Just having fun doing something I like seems to be the trick. Sometimes I get a huge happiness bonus after doing something that gets a nice reaction out of my significant other.
