Pokemon Tournament Stage I: "Gotta Raise'em All!"

[Skyblade]

At least you didn't burn a bunch of levels waiting for your pokemon to evolve only to discover you have to turn the flippin DS upside down for it to happen.

flipping yr ds upside down.. is this for real or a joke? xD

It is 100% real.

what? naa, ur messing with me, arent you? 0_o
wgat pokemons are we talking about?

686Inkay_Dream.png

evolves into

687Malamar_Dream.png

starting at level 30, when you hold the 3DS upside down.

Notice how the blue tentacles go from being at the bottom of Inkay to being the top of Malamar's head? And Malamar is standing on what was Inkay's head? The evolution flips the Pokémon over. The 3DS's gyro controls are used to detect when the system is held upside down, and trigger the evolution.


Also note that Malamar can have the ability Contrary, which reverses all stat boosts. And it's signature move, Topsy-Turvy, reverses stat boosts on its target. Another bit of upside-down theming for the "Overturning Pokémon".
