Watering berries yields more berries, but you also get dream points for watering berries too.  Dream points basically just act as a gate to further content.  Have a link.

I have actually used the swap shelf a bit.  Helps to find some of those rare berries, and just grab additional items.  I'd friend you, but I'm not sure what info you need.

Oh yeah. I knew about dream points, but I forgot you get bonus dream points for watering friends' berries. If I friended anyone from here, it's just be to do some berry watering. I'm trying to get 300 Watmel/Belue berries for the tropical house, and I feel like I could get a shit ton per plant if I could water them more than once every 24 hours.

More information: It's Black 2 and White 2 only, and the event only lasts until February 12. Hopefully I'll have a job by then so I can grab this.

Welcome to "We made new games. Why didn't you buy these new games?"

And the EV training of Cervuwyn the Sawsbuck is complete. I like obnoxious nature names. And this one includes 4 of the last 6 characters in the alphabet! I don't think you can get more obnoxious than that.

edit: Fuck the battle subway. I blaze through two of this dude's pokemon with Volcarona, then he sends out a Weavile. Easy peasy. Night Slash! Crit! Volcarona goes down. I send out Sawsbuck. It'll be a little more difficult, but still winnable. Night Slash! Crit! Sawsbuck goes down. Well fuck, all I've got left is Cofagrigus. Night Slash! Cofagrigus is slightly above half health. Cofagrigus misses the Will-o-Wisp, which is a death sentence.

Team weakness discovered: Dark type sweepers. And lucky crit streaks.

Technician Scizor with bullet punch will take care of that real nice.

Technician Scizor with bullet punch takes care of most things.

[Heron TSG]

My Battle Subway team is a fully EV trained Bullet Punch Scizor, Ultimate Critical Absol, and SubPunch Breloom. Usually only need Scizor, but if he falls there are still two incredibly powerful Pokemon to use. It's fantastic.

[penguinofhonor]

All physical damage? What happens if you go up against a... wow, not one of the highest defense Pokemon is resistant to steel. I guess that's the real secret behind Scizor's dominance.

[Heron TSG]

Aggron? Superpower. Shuckle? Bullet Punch. Steelix? Superpower. Skarmory? U-turn to Breloom. Not to mention that Absol's 50% critical rate makes for a ridiculous amount of wallbreaking. Might train a Jellicent or something neat from Unova to replace Absol, as that one's kind of a crapshoot. It's either incredibly powerful or... really unlucky.

[Aklyon]

But Absol looks cooler than floaty jellyfish pokemon

Jesus fucking christ.  Still no Meloetta distribution?  Gamefreak is royally pissing me off.  I mean, it makes absolutely no goddamn sense to have Meloetta/Genesect as part of the newest generation if there isn't going to be an official way to obtain them in the game!  I'm referring to BW1, for the record.  You couldn't get Genesect until the damn -sequal- came out, and Meloetta still hasn't had a distro and the 6th gen game has already been announced! 

The fact that a game (BW1) can say "here's a list of all the 5th gen pokemon" and then have no in-game or external way (short of trading with someone else who -has- the sequal) to get two of them is mind-bogglingly stupid.  I can't think of another game where you had to buy a sequal in order to unlock all of the content in the original game. 

[penguinofhonor]

Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire. I think you could only get Deoxys in FR/LG/E.

[Heron TSG]

Yep. Also Giratina-O/Shaymin-S in Platinum. And you could only get a Manaphy in DPP by trading from Pokemon Ranger. (Or from My Pokemon Ranch with the Platinum update.)

More Battle Subway. More "fuck weavile".

I send out Volcarona. "Ha," I say. "I'm a full health, you can't one shot me." It uses fake out, crits, deals half my health. Next turn it uses night slash, crits, gets the other half. So I send in Cofagrigus, land the Will-o-Wisp, then switch to Sawsbuck. I smack it down with Return at the cost of most of my health.

She sends out Steelix. Easy, right? I use horn leech, but the Steelix outspeeds me and uses night slash. What the fuck. I hit it, revealing it as a Zoroark. Yay, she managed to get two Weaviles on her team! I try to kill it with Return but it crits on Night Slash and kills me.

Only Cofagrigus remains. I go for the Will-o-Wisp, and manage to burn/hex it down with like 20HP left. Then the real Steelix shows up. Its strategy is curse+chestorest with its only offensive move being Earthquake. Luckily I have Haze to render its cursing useless, and Will-o-Wisp to ensure that its earthquakes can only deal like 14 damage at a time.

I heal slowly off leftovers but realize that I can't kill it if it keeps using Rest, so I curse it while it's asleep as soon as I break half health. I immediately realize it's impossible for me to Will-o-Wisp it on the turn it wakes up. It uses earthquake, which deals like 28 damage and kills me.

Moral of the story: fuck dark types and fuck lucky crits.

edit: And another round! I wipe this dude's team and my Pokemon are damaged, but nothing ridiculous. Then his last pokemon... WEAVILE! It outspeeds my Cofagrigus, takes down the rest of its health. Outspeeds my Sawsbuck, killing it in two hits while Sawsbuck takes it down to like 3HP, then outspeeds my Volcarona and one-shots it. It didn't even need to crit. I need some fucking priority moves.
