So what I'm gathering is, I should keep it? Lol

In all seriousness though, thanks so much for the help! I saw his stats and I was like "hmm, I think there might be something to this one..."

Thanks again!

You should have Wonder Traded it!

Don't look here.
I got negative reputation for saying Zygarde is more badass than Mewtwo. I cannot stop laughing. So I have been soft resetting Zygarde, and I was thinking of going adamant. Zygarde's special attack looks really underwhelming so far. I know for a fact that will change in the "3rd" version.

Definitely go for Adamant/Jolly. Zygarde has access to Dragon Dance, Outrage, and Extremespeed through level up after you catch it, and knows Earthquake upon capture. I made the mistake of catching a Mild one since I thought it had good Special Attack and that Dragon Pulse was its only Dragon STAB.

There's many hints already in the game that we'll likely get DLC, such as the Strange Souvenir (Or possibly relating to a new game?). Also worth noting is that Gary (Or Blue) is supposed to be in the Kalos region, and the fact that 3 out of 4 doors to Kalos Power Plant are unable to be opened. I also suspect that the Anistar Clock will have more use than it already has.

we will have to wait 2 years until nintendo lazily reveal them?

"Lazily"? No.

This isn't a DLC franchise, and the people responsible for making those decisions are on the record repeatedly saying as much. Any content we have yet to find is in the form of event Pokémon, which is only DLC by a fairly narrow definition.

I just caught a Modest Xerneas with 201 health, 114 defense, 165 Sp Atk, 118 Sp Def and 119 speed.

Did I do good saving him? I was trying to get a perfect Xerneas for me for 2 days non stop and just got fed up with it.. The only downside this one has is only 28 or 29 Sp Atk IVs, but his defenses are pretty damn high giving him above average bulk.. Any opinions?
 
So i was talkin to the taxi guy in the main city and I never been to the Press before so i went and this lady told me about how the Head-Chief person left to go do something and left a note...I read it and it says she went looking for a "Mythical" pokemon on a mountain but to my knowledge of the legendaries of this season...none are on mountains....2 are in labs (Xerneas Yveltal) and the rest are in caves (Articuno/Moltres/Zapdos/Mewtwo/Zygarde) So does anybody know who she is talking about?

The nature is good and if you are fine with the IVs, I don't see much of a problem, especially since you likely won't be using the Attack stat in this generation. I thought there might be a problem with the Speed, but it seems that it has 30 IV in that regard, if not perfect. So keep it.

We clearly have no idea.

I actually mistyped, his speed is 119 so perfect IV, editing it now :p

I have an Adamant Yveltal, I'm assuming that's probably not what it needs to have, and that a S. Attack nature would benefit it much better?

It actually has a larger physical movepool, but its efficent STABs are both in Special Side(Hurricane, Dark Pulse, Oblivion Wing etc.). Phantom Force is decent physical move, so is Dragon Claw, U-Turn and Rock Slide, but it gets Focus Blast and Psychic as well(along with the redundant Shadow Ball).

If it got something like Night Slash at least, it could at least run Acrobatics, but alas, it only gets Sucker Punch.

Edit: Though Foul Play might work with it, because of the Dark Aura. But seriously, who doesn't this thing get Dragon Pulse, BRAVE BIRD and Night Slash?

I got myself a Timid Yveltal, and that thing it's a beast!! Dark Pulse, Oblivion Wing, Psychic & Shadow Ball are my current moves, still in training...

So, 600 BST for Zygarde - I can see it getting new forme(s) or mega evolutions. If Tyranitar and Garchomp get 700BST when they mega evolve, I think we'll be getting two 700 BST Zygarde mega evolutions. Maybe the games would be ZX and ZY?

Just caught a naive Xerneas with:

201 hp
151 atk
100 def
151 sp.atk
104 sp.def
119 speed

Should I keep it, or sr for a faster Xerneas?

Keep it. it has max speed, sp. atk, atk, and HP.

So then, I just looked at the basestats of Xerneas and Yveltal. Anyone else think it's weird that they have the exact same basestats? I don't mean total basestats, I mean that their stats are exactly the same.

It looks almost exactly like mine. :)
'Cept mine is bold with everything but Atk being Perfect. ;)

It's just me, but I'd go for a more defensive nature.

But, perhaps that's just me.

"Life and death are the two sizes of the same coin" and other pseudo-philosophical generic JRPG stuff like that.

I am a bit more interested in Zygarde's stats, especially its low HP. Both Giratina and Kyurem had significantly higher HP than their counterparts, even if they were just as "undead" as Zygarde is. I am actually starting to believe that it might get a Mega Evolution or two instead of a standard forme change, as the largest BST change through different forms belongs to Cherrim's about 111 stat change, and that is because of its ability(the more standard changes belong to Rotom with 80 and Kyurem with 40 and everybody else has 0).

Edit: Not to mention, both are fusions. Darmanitan does get an impressive 60 Base increase, but that is also because of its (Hidden) Ability and that only activates when it is in pinch.

I hate to say, I don't think there is anyway to go about getting a shiny legendary.
They're pretty much clones of Zekrom/Reshiram, and we couldn't get shinies of them, no matter how many times you soft or hard reset.
Sorry.
