    Edit: Never Mind. I figured it out.

    I've really been enjoying my play through of X here recently. I'm now six gyms in, and I'm currently working on some other things before traveling further ahead. I've got three eevee eggs I need to hatch, and then a fourth I still need to breed to ensure I can get all the eeveelutions.

    I've also been doing some wonder trading. Not something I would recomend to most, as it's mostly a crapshoot, but as long as you don't take it too seriously you shouldn't have a problem.

    It's only a level 1 atm, and has a nickname I can't read, but I got a tyrunt in a wonder trade. Poor thing was breed in Japan, but I got it from someone else in the states, so who knows how many people have had it thus far. It also hatched last September, so it's been around for a while either being passed around, or just sitting in someone's box. Needless to say, it's finally found a home with me.

    I also got, and immediately traded away a poor eevee nicknamed 24. I felt bad, but if I kept it, it would have likely just sat in one of my boxes for the forseable future.

    I also got a togapi that I'll definitely be keeping, even though it doesn't exist in the X/Y pokedex. Having been introduced to the Pokemon games with Silver and Gold, I couldn't not keep it.

    Typing all this, I kinda wonder if I put more sentiment into my actions in these games than most others do, lol

    Been doing a lot of evolving and breeding to get my pokedex in shape for when sun and moon come out, taking time but it shall be worth it.

    Rediscovering a lot of stuff about pokemon breeding i had forgotten about, for example, the fact nidorina and nidoqueen cannot breed but a female nidoran can which makes no sense to me.

    Can anyone explain this "Ongoing maintenance" crap? I'm trying to connect to the Wi-Fi on my Omega Ruby and it's not letting me. What the F--k?!

    They do routine maintenance every Monday night 7pm-11pm EST. And sometimes it can take more time than that depending on what they're working on.

    I decided for Alpha Sapphire, to trade over a Sail Fossil from X to add a Amaura on my team.

    Though some of its better moves like Earth Power are move tutor, which is unfortunate since in OR, I haven't bothered with Delta Emerald, now I'm going to raise the team up to level 60 before I do the whole event.

    do I really need to catch Rauquaza or Deoxys?

    You can't not catch Rayquaza. It's a story significant event and the game will force you to fight it again and again until you catch it.
    Not Deoxys, though.
