Pokemon X and Pokemon Y

For those of you who care, I have native River pattern Vivillion. What type do you guys have?
 
River pattern as well. Received a few of the other patterns from a few of me mates 'round here, and one from wonder trading.
 
My native pattern is Modern.

It's probably the same for all of Australia then. I wonder why we got that one. When I think of Australia, the last thing I think of is 'river'.

EDIT: I'm going to start Wonder Trading as soon as I...actually have enough Pokemon to trade with.

So, I just started! Yay!

My Fennekin is Jolly, (of course :-[) but I got a female on my first try, so screw it. It clearly wants me to have one with a bad nature. I guess I can just use super training, anyway.

Vivilion has different patterns on its wings depending on your 3DS' registered location. There's a whole bunch of 'em, but River Pattern's exclusive to aus.

Hawlucha's Attack stat really needs the boost from Adamant nature. 126 or so base Speed is really high, most people who are that high don't have +1 speed so Hawlucha outspeeds anyways.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that Hawlucha could get KO'd before it even has a chance to activate Unburden, if it's not fast enough. If it normally outspeeds all the Pokemon with base speeds below 118, it'll have a better chance of triggering Unburden, and can wipe out the threats that can easily wipe it out if they get the first strike. No +Attack nature may sound like a burden, but when you look at the bigger picture, having a +Speed nature may make a big difference.

Maybe for one example to use, Hawlucha faces Galvantula, and Hawlucha's Unburden ability has not been activated yet. A Jolly Hawlucha can 1-hit KO Galvantula with a Flying Gem boosted Acrobatics, while a Timid Galvantula can 1-hit KO Hawlucha with Thunder. If Hawlucha isn't using a +Speed nature, Galvantula will most certainly wipe it out, especially when you realize that Compoundeyes raises the odds of Thunder hitting its mark.

Thanks for that! I assumed it was a location by location thing, and that map clarifies everything. Yeah, river pattern isn't too flash either, I'd've probably gone with sun or just plain meadow.
 
I have Polar pattern for my Vivillion.

But Michigan is such a water state (there is a body of water within 6 miles of anywhere you go in Michigan), I'm surprised we don't have the River pattern.
