    So, did something about Shiny chances change recently? I've been working on getting my pokedex finished and two days ago caught a shiny corpfish, which was pretty cool as it was my first ever. But then last night while in lost hotel, I happened upon a shiny klefki.

    Seems really crazy to get two in such a short time span.

    Haven't done that yet, but I just got a lv 100 shiny Raikou off GTS. First shiny other than Red Gyrados.

    Speaking of which (LOL), @rockinx, wanna trade back tomorrow night?

    Sure. What time? (specify time zone, too, please).

    Whats the best route to find a Magikarp (poke x). My pokemon staple is making a laser fish asap. I must have a Mr. Fish in my party.

    Okay, seriously guys: How do you beat Gale Wings Talonflame? Mega Kangaskhan and Mega Gengar are easier to counter than that beast. Brave Bird KO's even my Donphan in two hits, and he only gets a single chance to use Stone Edge.

    Personally I beat it by having Mega Aggron tank every physical hit forever.

    252 Atk Choice Band Talonflame Flare Blitz vs. +6 4 HP / 252+ Def Filter Mega Aggron: 33-40 (11.7 - 14.1%) -- possible 8HKO

    Hey so I'm working out how to audition for the Pokemon World Championships commentator gig. I am thinking the best way to handle it would be to provide commentary over a doubles Battle Video. Anyone have a particularly exciting match to reccomend/submit? It'd be rad to use one of your guys' matches, but poking around on Nugget Bridge is an option too. The recent regionals already have some commentary so I figure its best to submit with footage that is not so high profile but not one of my own.

    Too bad I can't get direct feed without some modded 3DS. Should be able to get the lighting right though so that it doesn't look like crap.

    I want to battle (also on doubles), but my connection doesn't allow me to stay online longer than 18 minutes and a half (and very consistently, too).

    Though VGC battles should take a shorter time, so it's possible that I can do them. I might try later. I have some crazy ideas that might even work.

    Unless they changed it since I participated a few years ago, time limit per match is 15 minutes.

    That's perfect. Now I'm going to dedicate my breeding exclusively to VGC style then. I'll play singles when I'm playing locally.

    Just imitate Smash commentators and make up lingo on the fly.

    Pro tip: Rest Talk Mega Aggron is nuts. You stop thinking of moves as "special" and "physical", rather, "special" and "what? did you say something? did your pokemon do a thing? i didn't notice".

    I have seen in the log on PS "Mienshao used Hi Jump Kick! It's super effective! Aggron lost 1.6% HP!"

    Well, after resisting the urge for so long, I've decided that I want to make use of the Pokémon Bank by transferring things (mostly legendaries) from older games to X. That means getting out my copy of Diamond, getting either Black 2 or White 2, and possibly hunting down a copy of HeartGold or SoulSilver.

    I only got Dialga and two of the Lake Trio in Diamond so far; time to hunt the rest with a team of seven year old Pokemon.

    Are there any move tutors in the fourth generation Pokémon games that teach moves unavailable in later games? I know that there are far more tutor moves in the fifth generation games than XY, so I was wondering if there are moves that Pokémon can only be taught in the fourth generation games, too.

    What do you think's the best way to get a foreign Ditto? I've tried putting Dittos up on the GTS for other dittos, but it hasn't worked yet...

    Wow! Hey, I'll totally take one if you can, @RockinX. I just registered you. Let me know if there's anything you could use...the only decent things I have for trade are Porygons with Pokerus and most of the starters. I can give you a heartscale though, for sure.
