So, I've always only completed the storyline in these games. Beat the gyms and all that jazz. If I wanted to start playing this with any amount of seriousness, where would I start?

I assume you mean battling against other people on a simulator, in which case http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/ is one place.

http://www.smogon.com/ is a pretty informative site for this, with guides etc for people of all levels.

Hatched a shiny Eevee, was just trying to breed the nature off a Japanese Bidoof and then yeah.

The IVs probably suck but I guess I won't complain.

So, I got version Y and it's the first time I'm seriously playing since G/S (god, I feel old typing that), I stopped caring about Pearl 30 minutes in.

Anything I should know by now? Any useful resources besides the ones on OP?

FC is 4656-7364-3662 if anyone's interested.

Are X & Y just set in one region?

I just started playing like a week ago.

How do I add people so I can access their Safari after I finish the league?
Also Mega Gengar is best pokemon ever.

Add them on your 3DS homepage. There's an orange button near the top of the touchscreen and you can add friends there.

oh my fucking God I hate Showdown so much

Random Battle today, my opponent had a paralyzed Tornadus-Therian which I was Air Slashing with Serene Grace Togekiss. He was using Hurricane, which is an inaccurate move.

He hit 5 times in a row, perfectly. I haven't even done the odds on it but I'd say they're astronomical.

There's a 30% chance to miss with Hurricane, there's a 60% chance of Air Slash flinching, there's a 25% chance of paralysis.

3/4/ x 2/5 x 7/10 is 42/200, off the top of my head. That's, what, 42/1000? 4.2% chance of that happening, apparently.

My math could be off here but eh.

Dude, it's not Showdown's fault the RNG decided to take a crap on you. Just shrug it off.

so excited for ar/os

in other news i've taken a break from mafia in order to restart pokemon x- i lost a hard copy of pokemon y, and my original x save file got corrupted on my sd card somehow. this time i started the game in french.

i've also been looking for a moody female snorunt, and checked the first post to see whose friend safari had it- ironically only me, on the copy of y that went missing. ;(

also blah blah blah i'm at the third gym at all level ~60 gym gaps too large blah blah blah
