Honedge Perfect IV Breeding

One of the best way to catch all Pokemon is by catching them from Friend Safari. Apart from that, Pokemon from Pokemon Safari got at least 2 perfect IV(31), good start to breed perfect Pokemon(for battle).
So , add me up >> 3196-4020-3001 and please reply your friend code. =)
My safari type is ghost with the following pokemon - Shuppet/ phantump/ drifblim


I managed to get a few dittos from friend safari, one of them got 3 perfect Ivs.
After countless number of eggs and generation, i finally manage to get all 6 perfect IV. Actually i only desired 5, but luck give me all 6. Getting 5 perfect IV from both parent with 4 perfect IV is the hardest part.

It inherited some crappy skills

You could check for your Pokemon IV with him, at Kiloude Poke Centre


Still Level 1, time for Super Training!

(Pokemon X) Journey So Far - 2nd Gym ; Grant

There is so much to do that i only reached the second gym after logging 16 hours of playtime. To make thing worse (or better), 2 of my Pokemon already leveled more than 30. They now refuse to follow my order and start loafing around. Wau, i never had this problem before. I barely grind or train my pokemon unlike previous generation.
After some climbing

He uses rock type Pokemon ; Amaura and Tyrunt. I thought using grass type Pokemon should do the trick. However, his Amaura knock out my Gloom in 1 move. Grant is actually hard to beat due to his Pokemon type, that is not purely rock. Amaura is Rock+Ice and Tyrunt is Rock + Dragon.


His powerfull Tyrunt
 He will use Rock Tomb skill that will lower your speed. He also use Bite occasionally , annoyingly causing your Pokemon to flinch and miss the turn. He also use Stomp attack. I barely beat him using my Gloom. I think it would be much easier with Frogadier but my Frogadier fainted during trainer fight before reaching the gym leader =(.

I won



My current line up

(Pokemon X ) Wonder Trade wonder - Pokerus

I spend a lot of time trading Pokemon , because of the thrill of getting unique or rare Pokemon. And today i got this ;

Mawile with Pokerus
To be honest, i didn't really go in depth while playing the previous Pokemon series. Getting this Pokemon got me super excited . Information from Serebi indicates that Pokemon with this status would grow faster than normal (higher Effor Value or EV). And this thing is actually very rare and i am very lucky to receive this Pokemon. Thanks random Japanese person!

Edit
Oh ya, from internet research, this Pokemon is kinda rare in the game. Thanks again Japanese guy/girl!

I have spread the virus to my whole team, if you want one, i can trade one Pokemon with you. Just tell me



Edit 2

Pokerus helps a lot in EV training, but introduction of Super Training makes EV training easier and simpler in this game. But you can still use horde battle for a much faster EV training! Use sweet scent to get horde battle often with weak Pokemon that give 1 EV each. But with Pokerus , that would total up to 5*2 = 10EV per fight. Skill such as surf would be very usefull here! Sweet!

Pokemon X & Y

The first Pokemon title for 3DS was officially launch on 12 October. And I only got mine two days ago (14/10). Why am i excited? They finally move away  from the traditional 2D sprite and tonnes of new feature e.g Pokemon Amie (i can pet my pikachu! =D)

Anyway, proceed with caution, they could be some spoiler
Here it is !

My Pokemon X

Why Pokemon X? (Spoiler Alert)

Charizard X looks cool! To those who don't know yet , you will be given an option to choose between 3 classic starter (Charmander, Squirtle, Bulbasaur) somewhere in the beginning. They come with Mega stone  You still receive one of the new starter(Fennekin, Chespin, Froakie ) in case you are wondering.

Mega Evolution !

Well, some Pokemon will have an additional evolution stage, called the Mega Evolution. However it is not similar to the normal evolution as it only last during the battle. Plus, the Pokemon need to hold some sort of stone to allow it to Mega Evolve. The evolution type depends on the stone it is holding. FYI, choose your Pokemon game wisely (X or Y)  because they will give different stones for you. For example, Charizard must be holding Charizardite X or Y depending on the game to become Mega Charizard.

X or Y ?

Torchic Gift

For a limited period of time, you could claim this Torchic from the mystery gift. Well, i doubt you could find torchic in the wild without trading from previous gen. To make it extra special , it have a superb hidden ability and also holds a Mega Stone (ooowh!!) So, be quick and claim the Torchic before February 15 2014.

Special Torchic

Starting my game

I choose Froakie as my starter because i would want to choose Charmander later. I could also choose Chespin, but i guess i am not a fan of grass starter. But now my Froakie have evolved into Frogardier ! And, shocking enough, someone traded me another Froakie!

Froakie =D
Wonder Trade

There is so much thing to do in this game, and i chose not to rush and enjoy the game slowly. One features that stand out the most to me is the wonder trade. Here, you put up a Pokemon and get a random one from a stranger. I got a lvl 1 Froakie from this, a Japanese guy got it from the daycare and decided to trade it away. I also got a lvl 38 Poliwhirl while i haven't even beat the first gym. Of course my Poliwhilr wont listen to me and decided to sleep during battle.

Horde Battle

Horde battel where you encounter 5 pokemon at once. Best if you got skill that can hit all. My first horde battle? 5 Psyduck! Hahaha


My adventure so far

I just beaten the first gym, and i could say this new Pokemon generation is awesome. The new fresh ideas really makes me enjoy the game. It really bring back the memories of First Gen game (red/blue/green). Well, you will notice  a lot of similarities with the original series in this game. I really didn't enjoy much of the previous gen (except gen 1& 2) because it feels so repetitive, and "grindy". All i do is level up and battle , and i  just rush to finish the game.

I guess GameFreak finally learn what their player wants, such as the new interface, availability of older gen pokemon from the beginning. Or having the option to have the nostalgic first gen starters. I hope you all would enjoy this game as much as i do. =D

Final Fantasy : A Realm Reborn . Starting my new adventure !




Finally got my copy of this game. Stunning graphic! It is so beautiful yet not so heavy on my laptop. I expect a lot of lag/jerk or completely unplayable running it on my old Asus laptop to play this game (Nvidia GT335). I have played most of the game in FF series (mainly Ps1/Ps2 titles), but i never played the original Final Fantasy Online(because it is online?) . This time, because of the hype, i guess i wanna give it a try. Note that, i come from games such as Ragnarok , Dragon Nest but not World of Warcraft, Guildwars etc. So, some of the things in FF is completely new to me. 

Well, the first let down is the large update after installing the game. 3.5 Gb update. Ouch. Well, that's acceptable since they are a lot of updates going on, which mean the developer (Square Enix) is doing their job well to ensure things to balance up and running well. But, 3.5GB with no resume capability? Major letdown. For you who have uber fast internet , thats not a problem. But im using slow internet with quota. Super ouch. Luckily i finished updating during nighttime where the line is more stable but it still takes 5 hours . Imagine the fear of disconnection and having to start over (I try sleeping until it ended ;( ).

I start up as a pugilist, expecting to become a monk . Little did i know that the classes/job is distinguished from the beginning for 3 different roles, damage dealer, healer and tanker. I thought that the roles would depend on ones build (skills and equipment). But in this game, i can actually play all the job/class. So, i just proceed playing pugilist to learn and familiarize myself . 

Some pictures ;
Nice Beach !


Svara Fate


FATE stands for Fully Active Time Event, events that spawn throughout Final Fantasy world. This is the best way to level up at the moment. The exp offered is large, and the quest is very easy especially with large number of people. I'm quite surprised that my laptop can handle the crowd well, or is it because of the game engine? Apart from the EXP, i also get gil and GC seals. The seals can be exchanged with guild equipment and other stuffs.
