So, does anyone actually use the bike any more? I find that the rollerblades pretty much make it useless.

Dude... Save beforehand. Saves you from the headache of money loss.

I do do, but if I reset every time I lose then I lose all the EXP I gained and as there is no audino trick that I am aware of, about the only way to win in this game is to keep losing until you've levelled up enough to win.

I mean save before important battles like gym leaders and Flare bosses. Then you can just reset if you lose that and you've lost nothing.

If you're losing in the wild against random Pokémon and Trainers... well maybe you should go somewhere easier to level up? :/

And there are Audino in the game.

I've not had a single point where I felt like I was losing, and I'm not overleveled either - just fought Team Flare in the Poke Ball factory and their Pokemon were only a few levels below all of mine.

Oh no it's only important battles - Team Flare's Leader, the psychic and first and second gyms but you get loads of EXP from those which is why I don't reset.

My team is broken as fuck though, wild Pokémon are around level forty, but Pokémon like Blaziken who I use every battle and has EXP boost is like almost level sixty and I physically can't close that gap. Even other mainstayers like Lucario is almost ten levels behind him.

If you want to get easy levels in this game there's a restaurant in Lumiose city that gives you good expirience and money.

I don't really remember having any trouble with the Team Flare boss. I think my team was Chesnaught, Charizard, Tyrantrum, Lucario, Talonflame and Lapras although the last two I don't think I used much.

Dont tell me that! Im just starting to deal with Zubats... Darn caves...
