Exp Training
Alright I have been doing some tests with the Exp Point Power and there seems to
be a way to abuse the 3 minute timer by battling at Restaurant Le Wow!
Simply use the Exp Point O-Power on yourself then do the Triple Battle
Option. You will keep the Exp O-Power bonus for every battle since it is a battle
chain! The Pokemon that you will battle are in the mid 60's.
To test this I started the first battle, waited 4 minutes to make sure the O-Power
should have ended, then continued to the second battle which has an Audino.
Guide
Lucky Egg: Coumarine City Hotel (Fly to Coumarine and take the
train back, then exit the station and go north when possible into a
build. Girl will be on the left)
Amulet Coin: Parfum Palace (Inside the fireplace in one of the
rooms)
Statistics/Numbers
Sample:
Other Notes:
•I highly recommend getting your Pokemon that you want to train to full
affection as it increases exp by 20%, as well as use a Lucky Egg.
•Use moves that hit multiple Pokemon as well! Im currently using Earthquake,
Heat Wave, and Dazzling Gleam with my Garchomp, Charizard, and Sylveon
respectively.
•You'll gain Balm Mushrooms for doing this which currently gives me around
$100,000 per run as I don't go for the recommended turns. Finally, give one
Pokemon an Amulet Coin to increase profits :)
•If you want to gain the most money possible, be sure to do it in the amount of
turns that you're told before the battle. This will help you get the 25 max Balm
Mushrooms that is possible. Personally, I choose to ignore it and kill in 1 or 2
turns as you'll be doing this a lot and gaining a lot of money anyways :)
•O-Powers recharge rate depends on how many steps you have on your 3DS
step counter throughout the day. Once you hit 4,000 steps your O-Power's will
recharge at 4x the normal rate.
•This will work with all other restaurants! However, do not use this at Sushi
High Roller to grind as the difference in Pokemon levels and the $500,000 fee is
not worth it.
PokeMart
I looked online for some sort of guide to what shops offered which items, and as I
found nothing I decided to make one myself. All marts offer the same basic items
depending on how far you are in the game, but in certain towns you can purchase
specialty items from the right-hand clerk.
All prices listed here are standard and do not factor in Bargain Power (O-Power).
The marts in Central Lumiose, Camphrier, Ambrette, Geosenge, Dendemille,
Couriway, and the Pokemon League do not sell any specialty items.
Balls
*Snowbelle City Mart sells all seven of these balls at the listed prices.
NORTH LUMIOSE CYLLAGE COUMARINE
Heal Ball, 300 Net Ball, 1000 Quick Ball, 1000
Net Ball, 1000 Nest Ball, 1000 Timer Ball, 1000

Coumarine is also where you can find every type of Incense for 9600 each. Ride
the monorail to get to the merchant. Next to him you will find a stand that offers
one free random berry everyday.

Breeding Pokemon
I have posted replies with this information in a few threads and I'd like to share it
with all of you, in one place, so hopefully you can take advantage of IV breeding
in gen 6 (which is easier than ever). This is my first time doing IV breeding, but
I've successfully bred a 5 IV adamant dratini w/ hidden ability (the toughest of
my future team).
(READ! Not sure why people are still asking 'How do I know if my IVs are
perfect? How do I check IVs?')
How the IV judge (ace trainer, inside the Kiloude City pokemon center, on the
left) works:
His dialog is similar to what's laid out in the tables there. Basically he will look
over your pokemon, and the first thing he says is a general comment about its
potential. If he says "outstanding" (the highest rating), it means its combined six
IVs are 151 to 186 (the max).
Highest IV Range
Rather Decent 0 to 15
Very Good 16 to 25
Fantastic 26 to 30
Can't Be Better 31
He will then go on to list its highest IVs, in the order of HP, ATK, DEF, SPATK,
SPDEF, and SPEED. Keep in mind, the order he lists them off is always like that,
and it is NOT the descending order of the stat values. If he mentions more than
one stat, it means they are tied for your highest IV.
He may say something to the effect of "your highest stat is HP, ATK is also good,
SPDEF is also good, SPEED is good too." This means HP, ATK, SPDEF, and SPEED
are tied for your best IV, even though it's not explicitly stated as such.
After listing those stats, he'll make an overall comment on them. This is
important. If he says "they can't be beat", that means the stat(s) he just listed
are 31 IVs each. That's what you want.
He'll then go on to tell you if you have any particularly low ones. He might say
"how do you get through battle with a DEF stat like that?" This means DEF is
really low. I'd like someone to confirm if this means the stat is 0, as I'm unsure.
Sometimes you actually WANT a Pokemon with the lowest possible speed, for
example.
Another clue that you might have a VERY low IV somewhere in the mix, is if he
lists 4 or more IVs as being very high ("fantastic" or "can't be beat") and yet your
overall rating at the very beginning was NOT "outstanding" or even "relatively
superior" but just "above average." This means that some of the other,
unmentioned stats are dragging down the total.
1) Catch your pokemon with its hidden ability. Let's use Dratini as the
example. Make sure it's male, so it can breed with a Ditto and pass down the
ability. (In future steps, assume the Dratini is MALE, when breeding with a Ditto,
to ensure the hidden ability is passed. I don't think a female will work with a
Ditto, but someone can correct me IF they experienced otherwise.) Both male
and female pokemon can pass down hidden abilities through a Ditto. It is NEVER
a sure thing the offspring will carry it, so keep trying til it does.
2) Breed with a Ditto of the right nature. The Ditto should be holding the
Everstone. Hatch the Dratini.
3) Attach Everstone to the offspring (Dratini). Put it back in the daycare with a
Ditto that has the IV you want (Let's say it's ATK). Make sure the Ditto is holding
power bracer. This will guarantee ATK is passed down. Hatch the new Dratini.
Attach the Everstone to it (repeat on every step, always attach Everstone to the
non-Ditto).
4) This Dratini has perfect IVs in ATK. Next we want SPEED. Attach power anklet
to a Ditto with perfect SPEED IVs, then pair it up with our most recent Dratini.
Here's where we might have to try multiple times. The next Dratini will be
guaranteed to have max IVs in SPEED, but it may not have max IVs in ATK
anymore. Why?
The resulting Dratini inherits 3 stats from its parents, and 3 are randomly
generated. If ATK is one of the randomly generated IVs, it won't be max (unless
you get lucky, which is unlikely). Even if it IS one of the inherited stats, it may be
inherited from the Ditto, and not the Dratini. Remember, our Ditto does not have
perfect ATK IVs, only SPEED. However, if you catch a Ditto with perfect ATK AND
SPEED in the friend safari, this makes things easier. That means that as long as
ATK is one of the 3 inherited, it will be perfect, cause both parents have perfect
ATK.
We want to keep breeding until the judge in Kiloude city tells us both ATK and
SPEED are max. This may take (quite) a few tries. NOTE: Attaching a different
power item to both parents does not guarantee two perfect stats are passed
down, and nature becomes randomized again since you took off Everstone, so I
advise against this.
5) We now have a Dratini with perfect ATK, and perfect SPEED. Repeating the
above steps with the other Dittos will only get you as far as 3 perfect IVs. The
way to get 5 requires Destiny Knot, and preferably a Ditto with multiple perfect
IVs (at least the two you are missing), in my case my very lovely 4 IV Ditto,
which I caught with perfect HP, DEF, SPATK, and SPDEF.
6) Once you have parents who, between the two of them, have your five different
perfect IVs, you can start using the Destiny Knot. I gave the Destiny Knot to the
4 IV Ditto. My ideal Dratini has perfect HP, ATK, DEF, SPDEF, and SPEED. I don't
need SPATK. It can possibly inherit ATK and SPEED from the Dratini parent, and
the other three from the Ditto, thanks to Destiny Knot.
It's important to note that Destiny Knot simply expands the number of inherited
parental IVs from 3 to 5. So 5 of Dratini's 6 stats are now coming from either of
its parents, not necessarily the holder of Destiny Knot. This means that although
we have the potential to produce that "ideal" Dratini I described, but it may not
inherit the right stats from the right parent. I want SPEED from the Dratini
parent, for example, but it may inherit imperfect SPEED from the Ditto instead,
which would make it a dud.
All you can do now is hatch, hatch, hatch. Probability is a bitch. But here's a tip:
during this step, you may hatch a Dratini with ATK, SPEED (the stats which the
Ditto can't pass down for me), and other perfect IVs, but not all five you want. At
this point, switch out the Dratini parent with this new Dratini to increase your
chances of passing down perfect IVs. You may even decide to switch out the Ditto
with another opposite-gender Dratini, assuming it has MORE perfect IVs. Just
ensure that between the two, all five IVs you want are present. Eventually you'll
get one with your five desired perfect IVs. This may take hours (as it did for me),
especially since the hidden ability being passed is never a guarantee.
7) If you want six perfect IVs, do step 6 AGAIN, until you get another fiver with
the same stats, of a different gender. Breed the two fivers together, one with
Everstone, one with Destiny Knot. Destiny Knot can still only ensure 5 out of 6
will be passed down, but eventually, the sixth randomly determined stat will be
perfect too. There's no trick to this part, just lots of hatching. However, I don't
think this is necessary at all unless you run a mixed attacker, right?

Hatching/breeding tips:
•Flame body and magma armor have the same effect: they halve the number
of steps you need to take before hatching. Having both abilities in your party
does not stack the effects.
•If you do have access to a Ditto safari zone, catch a bunch and try to find ones
with more perfect IVs. If they have commonly bred natures like Modest or
Adamant, keep them too. I nickname my dittos based on their IVs and natures
so I can reference them later. ('Atk/Def' is literally the name of my Ditto with
perfect IVs in Attack and Defense). You might want to keep a few Dittos with
Imposter in you encounter them (not that rare, in my experience), as there is
no other way to obtain them.
•Since you'll be doing a lot of walking, you might as well keep a pokemon who
evolves via happiness in your party, with a Soothe Bell. For instance, I am
breeding Togepi at the same time as another pokemon, because Togepi has to
evolve into Togetic before I can breed him again (ugh).
•One of the best places to hatch is right outside the day care, as the dirt road
stretches from the cave entrance, through Camphrier City, to a ledge at the
entrance of Route 5. The benefit of this is that you can see if the day care man
is holding another egg when you pass him. Obviously, you want to be holding
as many eggs as possible at one time so the steps you take hatch them all.
Stay on your bike, and use the D-pad to go in a straight line, as the circle pad
may make you veer off.
•Another good place to hatch is the circle around the tower in the center of
Lumiose City. You can get on your bike and just hold left or right, going around
and around instead of back and forth.
•Don't wind up with too many eggs, because you can't release them or get rid
of them, except trading with someone else, which is tedious.
What is chaining?
Chaining, in simple terms, is the act of encountering a pokemon over and over
again using an item called the PokeRadar. For those of you that don't know, you
get the PokeRadar after the Elite Four in Professor Sycamore's Lab in Lumiose
City on the 2nd floor. The PokeRadar works like this: you use it in some grass and
patches of grass around you shake, indicating a pokemon is in one of those
patches. The PokeRadar recharges after you take 50 steps.
Chaining on its own is very boring, and seemingly unimportant. However, if you
are able to chain a pokemon 40 times successfully, certain "shiny patches" will
start to show up every few resets of the PokeRadar. These patches indicate a
shiny pokemon dwelling in this grass, aka when you enter the grass, you get
shiny.
While there are no concrete laws to chaining and everyone has their own
methods, I will explain the method I have found works 100% of the time for me.
It took me a disgusting amount of testing to figure these principles out.
1.Buy super repels. A lot of them. These will ensure that you do not break a
chain of encounters by running into wild pokemon in the middle of chaining.
Also, I should emphasize the phrase a lot of them. I usually bring around 200.
Nothing is worse than running out of repels at a chain of 20. (I should mention
max repels work fine as well, however it is more cost effective to use super
repels as max repels only give 50 more steps for $200 more.)
2.Put a pokemon with moves that have a lot of PP in your party. I would highly
suggest a pokemon with 2 moves with 20pp or 1 move with 40pp, as it makes
counting much easier.
3.EDIT: /u/bgw92 says to register the poke radar and unregister any other
items, as using another key item breaks the chain.
4.Find a field of grass with at least 5 patches of grass by 5 patches. It is
important to have a large field and this will be explained shortly.
5.Walk into roughly the middle of the field and use your PokeRadar, making
sure you've already used a super repel. Several patches of grass will shake.
6.Walk into one of the patches of grass, being sure to remember the nature of
the shaking. There are two types of shaking, I will refer to them as rough and
soft shaking. Rough shaking is, well, rough shaking and soft shaking is the
opposite.
7.If the pokemon you encounter is one that you would like to chain, KO it. This
will ensure that the chain continues off of that pokemon. Congrats, you now
have a chain of 1. (You can use a notepad to count your chains, but I find it's
easier to count with your pokemon's PP.)
8.After you KO the pokemon, more grass will shake. PAY VERY CLOSE
ATTENTION TO THE SHAKING GRASS. This is easily the hardest part of
chaining as well as the most confusing. Not every grass will yield the pokemon
you previously KO'ed. There are a few rules to making sure the pokemon is the
same. 1: The grass must be of the same nature of shaking, ie: if your first
grass was a rough shaker, only go to rough patches. 2: Only go to a patch that
is at least 4 spaces horizontal or vertical away from you. There is much
disagreement among this rule and you may find that another distance works
better for you. However, if you're just starting, I would recommend doing
everything in a very formulaic fashion. 3: If no patches meet this criteria,
simply reset the PokeRadar until a patch works. Do this by running back and
forth inside the field of grass, taking care to not run over one of the patches
that wouldn't work. 4: If you KO a pokemon in a patch that is on the edge of
the field (ie if the grass is not surrounded on all sides by other grass) you must
reset your PokeRadar. Many chainers believe that KO'ing a pokemon on the
edge of a field is a death sentence for your chain. This is only true if you do not
reset after you KO an edge piece. If you neglect to reset, there is a good
chance a shaking grass (even if it fits aforementioned criteria) will give a
message saying "It seems there is no pokemon here," which will break your
chain in a very demeaning manner. 5:When you finally reach a chain of 40, pat
yourself on the back and take a bathroom break (it's been stored up for awhile
now I'm sure). When you come back, it is unnecessary to chain any more
pokemon. Getting a chain of 40 or 70 yields the exact same odds of getting a
shiny. What you should do is reset your PokeRadar over and over again until
you see a patch that shines. I would suggest having the volume turned on at
this point because when shiny patches appear they emit a pleasant sound. You
shouldn't be able to miss the shiny patch, as it is made very clear which patch
is shiny. 6: Catch the shiny and bask in its shiny glory.
1.Entering a patch of grass that does not have the pokemon you have been
chaining.
2.Entering a patch of grass and having the message "It seems there is no
pokemon here".
3.Leaving the field you are chaining in.
4.Turning off your game.
5.Using the roller skates.
6.EDIT: /u/thekingofnarwhals said he hatched an egg while chaining and it
broke his chain.
7.EDIT: /u/Minkelol said his chain broke by encountering a wild pokemon even
when he did everything right. This could confirm a very small chance that
another pokemon can show up even if you do it right.
1.Sometimes if you enter a patch of grass on accident that does not fit the
criteria, you may still encounter the pokemon you were chaining. In this case,
you are very lucky. However, next time you may not be so lucky.
2."Hey, I accidentally entered a patch of grass that had a different shaking than
the one I've been using and I still found the same pokemon!" If you happen to
notice when this happens (which you likely won't) you have two choices.
Essentially, what has just happened is you have "reset" the type of grass your
chain is associated with. This means you could continue the chain with the new
grass shaking and everything is fine. However, if you're like me and cannot
notice one patch as well as the other, I would suggest just resetting your chain,
if it's still a pretty small chain.
3.After the Elite Four, you may have noticed a certain legendary bird
occasionally occurring in wild grass. These guys are unaffected by repels, so
many have come to believe that encountering a bird messes up your
chain. THIS IS NOT TRUE, PRAISE GOOMY. The legendary bird runs away
and has no effect on your chain. Zip. Nada. Zilch.
4."Help! The pokemon I've been using to KO the others is out of PP!" Calm
down. Using the menus for anything does not break your chain, even if you
save. However, saving in the middle of a chain does nothing because when you
reset your game a chain is broken.
5."My power died!" Sorry, chain broken. Next time pay attention to the lovely
notification on the bottom screen when your battery is low.
Well, I think that about covers it! If anyone has any additions, let me know and I
shall add the information into the tutorial, giving you credit.

Pokemon-Amie
What is Pokémon-Amie?
Benefits
Pokémon with the strongest bonds will see the following benefits:
•20% increase in experience gained;
•Increased critical-hit ratio;
•Increased evasion chance;
•Chance to "shrug off" status effects;
•Chance to endure a hit that would otherwise knock it out;
•Certain Pokémon evolve when they reach a high Affection level.
Pokémon Stats
Each of your Pokémon has three stats that can be improved through playing with
it in Pokémon-Amie.
Hunger: Obviously indicates how hungry your Pokémon is. Can be increased by
feeding your Pokémon Poké Puffs (see below). This stat decreases slowly over
time, however playing mini-games will make your Pokémon more hungry more
quickly.
Enjoyment: This stat is increased by petting and playing mini-games with your
Pokémon. Decreases over time.
Affection: Denotes the strength of the bond with your Pokémon. This stat will
never decrease. Once Affection has increased to 5/5, you don't need to play
with that Pokémon again, and it will see all the above in-battle benefits. Affection
can be increased by collecting small hearts that your Pokémon emits when
feeding it Puffs and petting it. Each level requires the following number of small
hearts:
•Level 1 - 1 heart;
•Level 2 - 50 hearts;
•Level 3 - 100 hearts;
•Level 4 - 150 hearts;
•Level 5 - 250 hearts.
Poké Puffs
Poké Puffs are treats that you can feed your Pokémon whilst playing with it
Pokémon-Amie. You can feed your Pokémon a Puff by tapping the icon in the
upper left of the screen, then dragging the chosen Puff down to the Pokémon's
mouth. Smaller Pokémon may take 3/4 bites, while larger Pokémon may only
take 2. Pay attention to the speed at which your Pokémon eats. You'll be able to
sense whether your Pokémon's getting full when it eats a Puff very slowly. When
full, your Pokémon will refuse to eat the Puff you're holding.
Poké Puffs fall into one of 5 categories, each awarding different numbers of hearts
when fed to your Pokémon. The better you perform in mini-games, the better
Puffs you will receive.
•Regular Puff: awards 2 hearts - no decoration;
•Frosted Puff: awards 3 hearts - swirly frosting;
•Fancy Puff: awards 4 hearts - fruit/chocolate topping;
•Deluxe Puff: awards 5 hearts - swirly frosting + topping;
•Supreme Puff: awards [unknown] hearts - [unknown decoration].
Poké Puffs come in a variety of flavours, and your Pokémon will have a personal
preference based on their Nature. See this link to find out which your Pokémon
prefers: Bulbapedia->Flavor
•Sour: Citrus Puff (Orange)
•Sweet: Sweet Puff (Pink)
•Bitter: Mocha Puff (Brown + Light Brown)
•Spicy: Spiced Puff (Dark Brown)
•Dry: Mint Puff (Green)
Note: This info regarding flavours has come from other sources, and I'm not
convinced that the flavour has an effect on the number of hearts received when
feeding. There seems to be no change in the number of hearts, regardless of
theoretical preference.
Mini-Games
In order to collect Poké Puffs (and to make your Pokémon hungry), you'll need to
play mini-games with your chosen Pokémon. The number of Poké Puffs you'll
receive upon completing the mini-game will be dependant on both the difficulty
setting and how many stars you earn. Obviously, the harder the difficulty and the
better you do, the higher quality Puffs will be awarded.
Berry Picker
Up to three of your Pokémon will appear at the bottom of the touch screen with a
berry icon in a thought bubble above their head. Simply drag the corresponding
berry from the tree to the correct Pokémon.
Easy: Three types of berry. Pokémon will wait for quite a while;
Normal: Five types of berry. Pokémon are more impatient and will leave
promptly if you don't retrieve their chosen berry quickly;
Hard: Seven types of berry. Pokémon are very impatient and will leave quickly if
you keep them waiting too long.
Head It
Balls of yarn will fall from the clouds above one of three of your Pokémon. You
must tap the Pokémon when the yarn is just above their head to 'head it' back
upwards. Pokémon have a 'sweet spot' where they can head the yarn. You get 3
points if you hit it in the sweet spot, or 1 point for a slight miss-hit. At the end of
the game, a large ball of yarn falls. If you manage to head that one back up you
get a large point bonus (and must be a wizard, because that's near impossible).
Easy: Yarns falls more slowly and is less frequent. The sweet spot is largest.
'Fever' mode kicks in at 5 consecutive heads (double points);
Normal: Yarn falls at a moderate speed and is more frequent. Slightly smaller
sweet spot. 'Fever' mode after 15 consecutive heads (double points);
Hard: Yarn falls very quickly and very frequently. Sweet spot icon removed.
'Fever' mode after 15 consecutive heads (double points). Introduction of very
quick-falling purple yarn.
Tile Game
You will be shown an image of three of your Pokémon, which will then get mixed
up. All you need to do is rebuild the image by moving the tiles. Tip: Place the
corners first, then work along the borders. Extra tip: Pressing B will pause the
timer. This may help you locate the tile you need.
Easy: 5x4 grid. 2 colour border;
Normal: 6x5 grid. 3 colour border;
Hard: 8x6 grid. Multiple colour/pattern border.
