I really dislike when i quote someone and it posts it like that.
Also trying to find articuno again is nearly impossible. Ive been doing the whole walk out of town check pokedex thing, and it hardly ever moves. Its very irritating. Because i fly or go on foot to the route, then check the pokedex and it is literally at the route i started on.
Gah! This is a nightmare. Stupid bird.
Oh also als fs gave me loudred and tediursa. Fml.

Weird quote-replying as usual...
But yeah, Flygon's 4x weak to ice, and 2x to dragon. And fairy now. But hey, it's the same typing as Garchomp, and that doesn't stop it from being an uber-contestant. He has pretty good resistances to common types and levitate excludes it from stealth rock and spikes, and he's resistant to toxic spikes. I don't think it's too horrible, it's faster than my Emolga right now at about the same levels, and my Emolga has a speed nature. Yeah, I did super train Flygon for speed but even at level 60 it wouldn't make a huge different like that if his speed wasn't good to begin with. Emolga's also slightly trained for speed.
Its overall stats seem balanced now. I wonder what his Sp. Attack would be now if his nature didn't lower it... Because before super training it was pretty decent compared to his Attack, while his nature lowers it.
Switchy - Level 65: HP 214 (Super Trained) EV: ~90 Attack 177 (Super Trained) EV: ~200 Defense 116 Sp. Atk 112 (Lowered) Sp. Def 119 (Increased) Speed 186 (Super Trained) EV: ~170
At level 60, fully super trained stats would be around +30 right? This one's still has a little training left and spread out a bit. I'm thinking of throwing in the rest in HP or Sp. Def.. I think he could survive an Ice Beam (non-STAB) after Emolga uses Light Screen, because that defense is pretty decent and it has pretty impressive HP with not that much training. It has more HP than my level 68 Golurk (207)! Golurk's not super trained, but still... Without super training Flygon would be very close. The only real downside I see here is his attack isn't too amazing, but that's still pretty good.
Oh, and I'm pretty sure you have to be online at the same time as Al at least once, so your games sync and it confirms that he beat the Elite 4, unlocking the final Pokemon. As a side note, if you're looking for hidden abilities, the chances are increased while that person is online, too.

He'd be faster than Blaziken, maybe after one speed boost, but not two. But Accelgor is outmatched by very few in speed, I think by only Ninjask for non-legendaries. Mega Alakazam just says nope and goes first anyway and OHKOs. Mega Lucario also OHKO'd my Floatzel with Aura Sphere. Mine has an Sp. Def nature, and it's still not that high, but come on... Not to mention megas in general getting me to yellow HP with ineffective attacks... Forget ubers, now there's a new tier. Anyway, I think Flygon may have been buffed a bit. Mine has at least 115 in every stat at level 60. I super trained attack and speed around 80% their max, and they're about 175 and 185. Sp. Attack is around 145, despite its nature that lowers it. Did I just get something with godlike IVs? Or am I missing why many consider Flygon horrible? Competitive battlers consider Flygon a monster. ...in UU. It's only there because Garchomp is in OU wrecking everything. Oh, and Zygarde now. It's by no means bad, just outclassed.
I'm currently IV/EVing a Litwick, since I love Chandelure. 31 IVs in Speed and SAtk, Timid nature, 252/252 EVs in speed... Mentioning of which, I now have a lot of Litwicks, if anyone wants one. I STILL never found a Modest one, which is what I wanted, but Timid was a good alternative.

Guess that makes sense. He's outclassed for sure, but it doesn't seem like a whole lot like other Pokemon, and does resist two of the meta-game's most used moves. Well, I know OU and stuff are generally pretty unmatched, but for years I've been seeing people laugh at the mention of Flygon saying it's terrible and unusable. And having caught one myself in older games, I remember it not being very useful to me as it is now.

Tiers. AKA other people having already sorted the Pokémon to determine which 90% of them are crappy XD Kind of ironic timing on that question, really.

In unrelated news, Pokemon Showdown already has most of Gen 6 in their system already. Here's a battle I did with a stall team. I lost, but it was a test team anyway. WooooooActually, here's a better one.

Oh damn, I've been playing this game so much that I've forgotten to check out how this board is liking it. But yeah, I bought it on launch day and have beaten it. I'm currently working on the Kalos Dex so I haven't really spent much time working on a competitive team but there are a few Pokemon I'm really interested in using.
Hey, you who have been playing the game as well, can you PM me your friend codes or at least share what your in game name is? My in game name is "Calamity" as usual.

I got two really great ones i guess. It upsets me that its diggersby because i hate that thing. Its the bidoof of gen 6. Bunnelby is kind of cute, and then it evolves and its like "nooooooooo what happened!?" As bad as getting ground type is, at least i give out camerupt and trapinch right?

I have 18 Mega Stones. Am I missing any that aren't X-exclusive? You're missing five of them, and there are 5 others that are Y exclusives.
Did you get the other starters' mega stones from the stone emporium?
