Spoilers inside! Pokemon X and Pokemon Y - October 2013! :D

The third isn't unlocked but I'm pretty sure I have gotten HA's from others that only have two unlocked. Have another couple that only have two so I'll check and see if I get any HA's from them. The online thing doesn't make a difference as most of the time I don't be online myself and still get the HA's.

Is their an attack that does the same as trace? Could give it to my False Swipe/Soak/Thief Smeargle. Was thinking Spore originally as the fourth.

A Neurotic · 14-08-2014 6:23pm

Skill Swap would do the job I suppose.

My understanding was that HAs only became available after the other person had completed the game and you'd both been online at the same time at some point (you just have to have been online together once and then you'll always have access to the HA).

Angron · 14-08-2014 6:36pm

If I recall correctly any move that changes the enemy ability shows the original ability first before it changes, so alongside Role Play and Skill Swap, Entrainment, Simple Beam, and Worry Seed should all serve the purpose too. I think I used Worry Seed when I was hunting for a HA Nidoran during horde battles.

beaner09 · 14-08-2014 8:08pm

So maybe it's that because the other person hasn't beat the Elite 4, the HA rate is lower, and that coupled with Dugtrio having 3 abilities (and you having bad luck) has resulted in it taking so long.

Regarding the other thing, I just put Gardervoir (or a Ralts) out first holding smoke ball, and when I see the Pokémon has the ability I want, I switch in my False Swipe Pokémon! If it doesn't have the right ability, run!

Saw on twitter, apparently there's to be an event Pumpkaboo (Super sized) released over WiFi this month. Said it's available for the month of October, doesn't seem to be up yet though.

Gamestop Ireland twitter told me they will be giving out the codes, going into town tomorrow to see if it's true!

raze_them_all_ · 15-10-2014 8:22pm

asked a mate who's missus manages a gamestop she's not sure but will let me know in the mara

Angron · 15-10-2014 8:25pm

I have a GS not far from me in Galway, so I'll have a gander in there tomorrow.

beaner09 · 16-10-2014 6:12pm

Went in today and the guy in the shop said they aren't getting them! Then checked their Twitter and the guy said Nintendo cancelled the event for Ireland. In reality though, he didn't know at first and spoofed his way through it at first, then had to back track!

Banjo · 17-10-2014 12:31pm

Well, saves me a trip at lunch time, but jesus Ninty... it's bordering on racism now. Portugal is getting these gengars. F'ing PORTUGAL.

souleater3000 · 06-11-2014 8:29pm

So the Diancie event is Live, anybody got any ideas on how to get a code as Ireland is always screwed over with these?

There'll be none in Ireland, a UK code may work (the UK ORAS demo codes worked here) but you'd have to know someone over there or find a Facebook/Twitter page doing a giveaway! That or trade for a Diancie but you won't get the WonderCard thing then! (which is what I had to settle for)

I manged to grab a code on Twitter on a page that was putting them up and it was 1st come 1st serve, got he last code there.

PopePalpatine · 07-11-2014 12:15pm

Dammit, I've been checking Reddit on /r/pokemonplaza and /r/pokemontrades for those codes.

souleater3000 · 07-11-2014 12:21pm

Got it here, they said they cant reveal if they will be getting more codes, so there is a good chance they will.
You just have to be ready to input the code and be very fast with it

raze_them_all_ · 07-11-2014 12:25pm

and id say we wont get the eon ticket either

Yeah we dont seem to be, 15 people get it in the UK and they have to pass it on via streetpass.

PopePalpatine · 07-11-2014 12:46pm

I hope there's someone with the ticket when I'm in Birmingham over Christmas.

Hears6 · 08-11-2014 7:50am

Actually, I think we're more likely to get the eon ticket this way, well some of us if enough people actually street pass it and the amount of times someone can streetpass it isn't limited. Big downside would be that it should take a while for it to become widespread if it was to jump across the pond.

Banjo · 10-11-2014 12:28pm

You get a lot of UK streetpasses from relays in McDonalds or Starbucks or wherever it is in Liffey Valley, so I wouldn't worry too much unless it can't be sent by relay.

PopePalpatine · 10-11-2014 12:30pm

Yeah, I've picked up a lot of Streetpass signals when I go to shopping centres. When I was in Birmingham I was getting at least 20 Streetpass hits a day when I went into the city centre.

SureYWouldntYa · 04-12-2014 3:29pm

Love this wonder trading. Traded a level 1 Wurmple, got a shiny Mewtwo :P

Angron · 04-12-2014 3:35pm

If you send out stuff like Wurmple or Zigzagoon on the WT, you are the worst sort of person.

Banjo · 04-12-2014 3:42pm

I think the first time you send a Wurmple up on WT, no matter what comes back, a part of you is gone forever. Not a big part, but the part that matters most. Then comes a second Wurmple. A third. Then you start deleting their moves and changing their name to wURMPLE before you send them just to rub lemon juice in the wounds. It just gets easier and easier.

I was actually sending back the pokemon i was getting. Started off with that Lucario you are given in the story.

Shiny Skarmory came not long after too

From now on just release any garbage you get, don't feed them back into the system! People wonder trading the ass from the first 5 routes destroyed the wonder trade in x&y. Also please dont ask for a Darkrai or something equally ridiculous for your random poké. You clog up the gts from being a useful device. /rant.

raze_them_all_ · 05-12-2014 9:33pm

There needs to be a slap a **** option for gts
