I didn't know that was an issue. I feel lucky, I've been at the HoF a lot of times to get money but I haven't froze.

Yeah, it wasn't affecting most, but just to be on the safe side, I was doing the same thing as Drako.

Does anyone here actually go for full hearts when they use Amie? back in X I always did, even if the benefits weren't really all that useful after getting two hearts (The EXP increase). But now I have far less time, and I've just been going for three for no practical reason.

Also, really loving that there is an apparently easy way to get multiple Lucky Eggs in this game. Just have to move all my bred Pokémon from Kalos and train them for Hoenn. Hooray for newly competitively viable Chestnaught!

This. I have a tendency in which if I do something to one Pokemon I feel bad for not doing it for all Pokemon; once a handful of them reach level hundred I start getting all of my Pokemon, at least the evolved forms, to the same.

I used to think Quaklin' was Beast till I got my other Pokemon even, level wise.

I don't really even know what it does. I don't like all the minigame crap they've been creeping in so I don't use them.

It makes your pokemon gain exp at a boosted rate, helps them land more critical hits, helps them shrug off status conditions like poison/paralysis, they sometimes hold on after a hit that would otherwise knock them out, and my personal favorite, you can petpet them for doing a good job when an enemy pokemon faints.

Fuck. It sounds like I may have to use it after all. I am not amused. -_-

I don't use Super Training, but for Amie I find Head It to be one of the easiest games. But I've always liked rhythm games.

There's also a tile-sliding puzzle similar to the ones in the Unknown Ruins in GSC, and a "slide the berry to the hungry pokemon within the absurdly short time limit" game. I'm not fond of either of those.

The giant yarn ball messes me up damn near every time, but in unlimited I can get up into the eight/nine hundreds and get the really fancy cuppycakethings.

I'm am seriously enjoying the feature in AS that lets you used the LB for an A button. I can play with my left hand and use the mouse/type on the computer with my right. Perfect for multi-tasky Draggy. Still need an extra hand for the teevee remote to mute commercials tho.

But is anyone else having trouble filling up their DexNav? Frickin' Paras in Petalburg Woods won't show up and it's driving me nuts...

Edit again: just scored a1063 in Head it, with a longest combo of 144. Woot.

I discovered, a few days ago, to my dismay, that one can no longer turn off the power after HOF, and skip the credits scene. No, I have to watch the whole damn thing. So, I'm like, fuck, I'll just read something while this plays. And then I pick it up 10 minutes later, and I'm in a battle with May. Not sure how that happened.

I'm right outside the E4, made it through Victory road and everything. Then went "nah" and decided to update/work on filling up my Pokedex instead, fill out the DexNav and all that.
