Additional Trainer PR Studio captions

Defeat the Elite 4 and meet Looker, then return to the Trainer PR Studio in Lumiose City. Choose to edit your video to see new caption text options that reference your championship status.

Birthday greetings

Enter a Pokemon Center on your birthday to get a special greeting, including confetti, new music, and a digital birthday cake on the wall.

Dragon Ball Z reference

Go to Route 6 or 7 and a random Psychic Pokemon trainer will challenge you. After you defeat him he will say "Wow! You and your Pokemon's power levels are incredible! They're over 9,000 for sure!".

Earn Easy Money

The Trainers at the Battle Chateau pay out amounts in excess of P1,000 per battle when you start out, but as you gain rank these amounts skyrocket to north of P20,000 per battle. Combining this with an Amulet Coin and/or the Prize Money O-Power can result in a very profitable day at the Battle Chateau.

Easy breeding

After getting an egg or several eggs from the breeders, go to Prisim Tower in Lumiose City. Outside of the tower hold Left or Right to start an infinite loop without worrying about random battles. You can use a piece of tape to hold down the direction.

Friend Safari

After you beat the Elite Four, go to Lumiose City and get the TMV pass to go to Kiloude City. Once you are in Kiloude City go to the top right corner of the map.

Getting Glaceon and Leafeon

To evolve an Eevee into a Glaceon or Leafeon, you must be standing next to Ice Rock or Moss Rock when leveling it up. Ice Rock can be found first; it is located in the deepest part of the Frost Cavern (the cave is not too large). Moss Rock is found closer to the end the quest to defeat the Elite Four. It is on Route 20, between Snowbelle City and the Pokemon Village. Enter the area from Snowbelle to immediately see it.

Getting Mewtwo

Mewtwo can be found in the Pokemon Village. Cross a small stream on the western side using the Surf HM to reach a cave entrance. Mewtwo will be inside immediately after entering the cave. At first, a man will block the cave entrance, but he will disappear once you defeat the Elite Four. Mewtwo is Level 70; use a Master Ball to easily capture him, otherwise it will be a long battle and require a lot of Ultra Balls. As soon as you capture him, you will also get the special stone needed to activate Mewtwo's Mega Evolution.

Getting Pikachu

Pikachu can be found very early in Route 3, immediately after the forest, in small grass patches. Pikachu is a great early Pokemon. He has high special attack and speed stats that give him an advantage early in the game. His special characteristic, Static, works very well early in the game by paralyzing Pokemon that come in contact with him. Pikachu also levels up very quickly early in the game with a lot of bird type Pokemon in the grinding areas. He is overall a great addition to any team early in the game.

Getting Sylveon

To get a Sylveon, you must max out all three stats (Affection, Fullness, and Enjoyment) for an Eevee to evolve it into a Sylveon. To max out all stats for an Eevee, keep petting it and playing the mini-games. It should take approximately one hour to max out all the stats for the Eevee using this method. Note: Make sure to teach the Eevee a Fairy move before leveling it into the Sylveon.

Getting Zygarde

Zygarde is found deep inside the Terminus Cave, which is located just off Route 18. The Terminus Cave is one of the longest dungeons in Pokemon X and Y; thus, make sure to have lots of healing items and strong Pokemon before entering it. Zygarde is Level 70 and dual Dragon and Ground-type; use a Master Ball to easily capture him, otherwise it will be a long battle and require a lot of Ultra Balls.

Heal party anywhere without items

To fully restore your party anywhere in the game, simply start a wireless battle. If your opponent accepts, once you are returned to the overworld, your entire party will be in perfect health.

Infinite Heart Scales

Heart Scales can be used to teach your Pokemon moves you forgot or never learned at the Move Relearner in Dendemille Town. To obtain Heart Scales in Pokemon X and Y you need the Old Rod from Ambrett Town in the Aquarium by the Magikarp Statue and TM46, Thief, from Cassius's house in Camphier Town. Use the Old Rod on the Route 8 - Muraille Coast to battle Luvdics who have a 50% chance of carrying a Heart Scale. Keep fishing for an infinite supply of Heart Scales. Switch spots if Luvdisc doesn't take the bait.

Legendary Birds

Defeat the Elite 4. Depending on your starting Pokemon, you can encounter the corresponding Legendary Bird wandering around Kalos.

If you started with Froakie, Moltres will be available.
If you started with Chespin, Articuno will be available.
If you started with Fennekin, Zapdos will be available.

After encountering the bird, look it up in the Coastal Kalos Pokedex to find its current location. Walk there to challenge the bird again. Repeat the process and it will eventually go to Sea Spirit's Den, where you will have the chance to catch it.

Looker Detective Agency

Defeat the Elite 4, go to Kiloude City, then return to Lumiose City. You will get a Holo Caster message from a detective named Looker, who will hire you as an assistant and allow access to various side quests.

Mewtwo Sidequest

After beating the Elite 4, return to Pokemon Village. At the top of the area, there should be a cave that was previously inaccessible. Inside you'll be given the chance to catch a level 70 Mewtwo.

National Pokedex

Defeat the Elite 4, then return to Lumiose City and speak to Professor Sycamore at the train station.

New clothing

The items in the boutiques are the only way to get new clothes for your avatar, and their stock changes daily. You can find boutiques in the following cities: Anistar City, Cyllage City, Laverre City, Santalune City, and Snowbelle City.

New Trainer Card colors

Complete any of the following tasks to advance your Trainer Card color from green to blue, then silver, then gold.

Defeat the Elite Four and Champion to enter the Hall of Fame.

Get a 50-win streak in the Battle Maison.

Nintendo 3DS and Wii U references

Select the girl trainer. She gets out of bed with a Pikachu Nintendo 3DS XL in her hand and a white Nintendo Wii U on the floor. It is the same for the boy trainer, but instead he has a black Nintendo Wii U on the floor of his bedroom.

Oval Charm

Complete the Kalos Central, Coastal, and Mountain Pokedexes, then return to Professor Sycamore at the Pokemon Lab in Luminose City to receive the Oval Charm. It increases the chance of finding an egg at the Day Care.

Poke Radar

Defeat the Elite Four, then return to Lumiose City and speak to the scientist on the second floor of Professor Sycamore's lab to receive the Poke Radar. It helps locate Pokemon that are hidden in tall grass.

Power Ring Upgrade

After you've beaten the Elite 4, travel to Kiloude City and beat your rival. Then, travel to Anister City and speak to Professor Sycamore at the sundial. You'll receive an upgrade to your Power Ring, which will allow you to find more evolutionary Mega Stones between 8 PM and 9 PM.

The Legendary Birds

After you beat the Elite 4, one of the three legendary birds from the original Pokemon Red and Blue will start roaming throughout Kalos. Which bird you get depends on your starter. If you chose Froakie, you'll find Moltres. If you chose Chespin, you'll find Articuno. If you chose Fennekin, you'll find Zapdos. After encountering one of the birds in the wild, check its entry in your Coastal Kalos Pokedex. It'll show the bird's current location. You must walk - not fly - to the location and challenge the bird again. After fleeing several times, the bird will eventually retreat to Sea Spirit's Den, finally giving you the chance to catch it.
