I'm around 1400-1600 rating. I'm totally new to Pokemon and haven't played it since my childhood days, so if anyone wanna give me some advice both on my play and team building, that would be greatly appreciated. Pretty sure some do. Do you play OU beta or Pokebank OU beta? I'm 1650ish on OU beta. So I'm sorta average? I've learned to play a little better, but I've never been good at teambuilding no matter how hard I try haha. The fact that you have to account for so many different threatening Pokemon, their held items and movesets... the sheer number of them is staggering. I've found a team I'm comfortable with so I'm starting to try and get that done on my game right now. Edit #2: Found out that I have a Dark FS with Vullaby, Cacturne and Sableye if someone wants a Prankster Sableye to WoW stuff with :D | ||

My mate found a shiny of each of my three inside an hour :/ Supposedly safaris are the equivalent to a chain of 40, which is why they have 2 perfect IVs. It would also lead to a huge increase of shinies. | ||

Can I breed these two together with destiny + everstone and still get proteans or do I need to breed the male with a ditto for a protean female? | ||

It just wants to travel alongside you on your quest of becoming a pokemon master!

I liked the looker side story but after that there really isn't much. I've already got 3/5 of the battle maison statues and once the pokebank comes available I'll have all the gen 1-5 pokemon there (Minus meleotta because I was out the country when that event was on) Coumarine's god damn tram. Friend safari in general really. I hate the static 3 pokemon per file and how you have to constantly be going in and out of the safari when you want to change pokemon. Pokemon hordes being at a lower level than you. When I first heard about them I thought they would be a lot like monster houses from the mystery dungeon games but they were just something you ended up running away from because their speed values were so low. Although yes they are useful for EV training. Both mewtwo evolutions are strictly better than the original, pressure is a pretty useless skill on mewtwo in the first place when his defenses aren't exactly stellar. You could maybe make an argument the original form is a more bulky than then Y as a special sweeper, but I don't think you can ignore then 40 spatk boost + the speed boost. X really I think is about the same despite gaining fighting as an extra type, 190 physical attack is pretty ridiculous, on top of the fact that both X/Y have the highest respective atk/spatk in the game(beating out deoxys by a significant margin) makes me pretty much go with the fact they're both superior in pretty much every way, besides X looking pretty derpy tho. | ||

Stat wise / ability wise yes they are strictly better. However why wouldn't I just use a life orb and psyshock if I wanted to break a physical wall and Y may have more speed but on the first turn its still going to be using mewtwo's speed and its defenses means a SE move (Sucker punch) is probably going to just kill it before it gets going (Although that makes a point of saving the mega evolution I guess) . | ||

Mewtwo is basically a glass cannon sweeper in the first place imo, If you get either of the MegaEvos out safely you should pretty much dominate the enemy team pretty much totally, which I guess is a case of a lot of the megaevos tho. | ||
