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

The cost to do this is $100,000/run! You will make ~$170,000 back total after selling Mushrooms and using Amulet Coin1. Go to Anistar City Pokemon Center and talk to the man in the top left corner to gain the Exp Point O-Power2. Fly to the center of Luminose City, then make your way to Hibernal Avenue (between Rouge Plaza and Jaune Plaza).3. Enter Restaurant Le Wow (Black building with 3 stars).4. Use the Exp Point O-Power (Second page in PSS, under the GTS button).5. Talk to the lady and choose the Triple Battle option.6. Battle the 5 trainers (If you want more money, pay attention to how many turns they ask for you to complete them in).7. When finished, exit the restaurant and repeat from step 3.

Other Item Locations

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)

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.

PokeMartI 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.

Breeding PokemonI 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).

Things you'll need before you start:

•Dittos with perfect IVs in the five stats you want

Try to catch these in the friend safari: unlike in the wild, anything you catch there will have at least 2 perfect IVs, but it can have up to 5 supposedly. It's easier if you have a ditto with a lot of perfect IVs right off the bat.

•Destiny Knot

Found in Cyllage City, from a maid in the hotel. When attached to a parent, it ensures the offspring inherits 5 out of its 6 stats from either parent (no matter which parent holds it).

•These items (except macho brace): http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/EV-enhancing_item

16 BP each at the battle maison.

•Everstone

From a scientist in the house on the left of Geosenge town. Passes down nature (can't forget about that).

•Pokemon with the flame body or magma armor ability in your party to speed up hatching

..................................................................................................................

................

Understanding the IV judge and checking for perfect IVs

(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).

Pokémon's Potential IV Total

Decent 0 to 90Above Average 91 to 120

Relatively Superior 121 to 150Outstanding 151 to 186

Highest IV RangeRather Decent 0 to 15

Very Good 16 to 25Fantastic 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.

Step-by-step on getting a 5+ IV pokemon

Does your pokemon have a hidden ability you want to pass down? If not, skip to step 2. If it has two standard abilities, I recommend just disregarding the ability for now, win 200 BP in the Battle Maison, buy an ability capsule, and use it later to switch abilities to the one you want.

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.

Pokemon ChainingDuring my playthrough of Pokemon X this past week, I found 2 shinies (Quagsire and Absol) in the wild. After I completed the game, I felt the thirst to acquire more and more shinies. I tried the masuda method, got the foreign ditto and everything, however I was instantly bored with it. My grievance with MMing for shinies is that there is no assurance of when you will get your shiny, if you ever actually do; it could be 3 eggs or 3000 eggs. I knew about chaining from previous gens, but never tried it out of fear for its complexity. Chaining can be frustrating, however it is very rewarding, as if you do it correctly, you are guaranteed a shiny.

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.

Why should I chain?

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.

What are the rules/steps to chaining?

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.

Ways in which a chain can break

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.

Some rare occurrences and how to deal with them

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.

Mega Stone LocationsA lot of people are asking how to obtain the mega stones. Here's a list of them all and where you'll find them. Obviously, there will be some spoilers so proceed with caution.

__Abomasite

This is given to you when you save Abomasnow in Frost Cavern.

Absolite

You will get this stone when you defeat your rival in Kiloud City in the postgame.

Aerodactylite

This one is in Ambrette Town, where you'll get it from a scientist in the Fossil Lab. The scientist is located on the right side of the lab.

Aggronite

This one is found at night and is exclusive to Pokemon Y. When you enter Cyllage Gym, go to the right and climb the first wall, then climb the next wall on the right. It is on the ground around the corner.

Alakazite

This one is found at night. Find this Mega Stone on B3F of the Reflecting Cave in the postgame.

Ampharosite

Go in Azure Bay and you'll find an old man on an island who will give this to you. The man is standing next to a fisherman and the island is just south of the Sea Spirits Den entrance.

Banettite

Find it in the Chamber of Emptiness at night.

Blastoisenite

When you get to choose one of the former starter Pokemon from Professor Sycamore, pick Squirtle and you'll get this Mega Stone. If you didn't get it from him, you will be able to buy it from a man in the Stone Emporium in Lumiose City in the postgame. It costs 150,000 and is only available every three days.

Blazikenite

You get this from the event Torchic. You need to go to the main menu and choose Mystery Gift. Select Receive Gift, then Via Internet and you'll get the Torchic after visiting talking to the woman to the left of the desk in any Pokemon Center. It's holding the Blazikenite.

Pokemon-Amie

What is Pokémon-Amie?

Pokémon-Amie is a new mechanic introduced in Generation 6 that allows you to build bonds with your Pokémon. Pokémon-Amie can be accessed in-game using the L/R bumpers to switch between the PSS and Super Training tabs.

Trainers who have taken time to forge bonds with their Pokémon will see an improved performance in battle. More specifically, Pokémon have an increased chance to perform critical hits, evade incoming attacks and endure otherwise 1 hit knock-outs, amongst others.

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.

Petting Your Pokémon

Most Pokémon have an area which they prefer to be petted, as well as an area they don't like you touching. You'll get more hearts per pet if you rub them in their preferred spot. Your Pokémon will give you visible clues to where they prefer to be petted (closed eyes, open mouth, head back, etc.). Additionally, the game will produce a low-pitched noise in areas the Pokémon dislikes, and a high-pitched noise in the area the Pokémon most prefers. Listen closely.

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 Puff Types

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 Puff Flavours

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.

Fastest Method to 5/5 Affection

To do this, you will need to have unlocked the Unlimited game mode for the Head It mini-game.

1) First, select the Pokemon you wish to play with.

2) Pet it in it's preferred place until no more hearts are released.

3) Feed your Pokemon the highest quality Puffs you have available until your Pokemon is full.

4) Start an Unlimited game of Head It, and play until you will have at least 100 points. Then, purposely miss the remaining yarn balls and let the game end. You should be awarded at least 3 of the highest quality Puffs.

5) Play another Unlimited game of Head It, and play up to 100 points again.

6) Go to Step 2 and repeat.

Using this method, I was able to get around 35-40 hearts per cycle.
