Someone sent over a JPN Squrittle with Pokerus. I offered my female Lucario for it which I didn't need on the count of you getting one after beating the gym.

I feel pretty good about the trade though, even if the squirttle was slightly low level. This is my first experience with Pokerus so…anything significant I need to know?

Pokerus goes away after a while if its in your team, but stays if you keep the infected Pokémon in the PC. It can also infect others.

Pokerus only lasts for so long, but boxing it will freeze the timer so you can allow it to spread. It only spreads when on your team, but not while in the box.
And a Pokemon who has Pokerus keeps the effect permanently, even after the time ends, but once the time ends, it can no longer spread it.

And the free Lucario is not very good. The free Lucario was 2 levels below the one I trained up, but the one I trained had stats so much higher the 2 level gap felt more like a 10 level gap.

Yeah, the one I trained myself was a higher level and stronger then the one you get from the leader but damnit I couldn't bring myself to bench it at the time.

I remember my first experience with Pokerus. It was in Pokemon Pearl when it turned out my Flygon had Pokerus. I'm not sure it was a Flygon I transferred from Pokemon Ruby or I evolved it from a Trapinch in-game.

Trained up a Nidoking to take on the fairy gym and all but crushed it.

Btw, if you haven't already, I highly suggest picking up the 'Lucky Egg' from the Coumarine hotel. It boosts the exp. gained by a mon, usually a couple hundred points, sometimes double. It's great for grinding.

Lucky egg plus pokemon amie bonus is a god send for grinding!

I'd also like to recommend the restaurants in lumiose. I do the triple battle one, and you basically earn around 30,000 (although it cost 15,000 to enter) and if you do everything in the correct amount of turns with no faints you get a lot of big mushrooms which you can then sell for a load of money. Makes buying the premium items in lumiose boutique that bit easier.

Oh and if you revive a poke before the battle ends it doesn't count it as a faint

I was wondering if that was still readily available. I'm half happy to see it and half disappointed that gaining experience is easier than it was in gen 5...and that's saying something.

I also can't find a Skull fossil...Plenty of flipping Root Fossils, but no Skull Fossil...

I could help you with those too. Though breeding takes a while(or hatching rather), so I'll just GTS them for ya. I'll let you know when they're ready.
