If the stone is obtainable in OR and before the game is beat, I'm pretty sure Sharpedo's going to be a main part of my team yet again. Most likely. Have to avoid the trap of half my team being Water types again... But when you need so many freaking HMs and not all of them learn everything...

Well, guess I'll just need a good HM slave this time around.

The three new megas look pretty good in motion. Kyogre's ability isn't as useful as Groundon's since it isn't nullifying a weakness. Not a deal breaker since I tend to not use legendaries anyways.

The "new" 3DS look cool, but I wonder if we would ever get them in the U.S. since we now have the Pokémon Center website. We would need the 3DS to be announced here first, which I'm surprised they won't have it releasing this year in the states.

Blah, simply cannot come up with good inspirations for nicknames for my Spiritomb and Dusknoir.

Pazuzu and Amenhotep respectively?

Where is everyone leveling up there pokemon after they beat the elite four in X & Y? Because all I've been dong is going back at it with the Elite Four which is well pretty much now SUPER BORING after doing it for so long.

I stick them in the day-care and use the Lumiose "eternal bike circle" trick.

I did not even know what Pazuzu was until just now. :lol Second one might not be bad...

And herein lies one of XY's biggest problems: zero fucking postgame and no good place to train afterwards.

I use the Battle Chateau or Route 21.

If you're just doing levelling up the Battle Chateau at full rank + black writ of challenge is brilliant. All those lovely level 65 Audinos :P

Alternatively, my friend safari has Audinos so I've been told that's a pretty good place as well if you have a lucky egg handy :lol

There's the cafe's at Lumiose, that's a good place to grind.

I use a combination of: le wow in lumiose city, exp power o-power, and a lucky egg (lucky egg goes on the Pokémon you want to level up fast). I normally use the rotation battle at café le wow. Also, have one of your lead Pokémon have a amulet coin if you want extra money. (Trust me. The payout is big when paired with the prize money o-power.)
