I doubt Swinub is time related. I think it's just in the Tanzan Mountain. I found mine west-ish in there.

Well, it depends on what the rest of your team looks like. I mean, if you have a team full of special attackers, then Gallade could be better. But, that's the only way I really see him being better, unless you desperately need a fighting type.

If you don't want to go with a pickup "army", per se, just get a 1-3 Pokemon with pickup while you're level grinding. That running around for wild Pokemon helps me grind longer when I bring Zigzagoon with to grind on Unown 'cause the little guy gives me potions and stuff and helps me grind longer.

Finally got it. Granted, it was after beating the gym. Thanks for the help anyways, though. Just needed max friendship.

I've been sitting here in the Obsidia Ward for a long time now trying to get the Vulpix from the salon. I don't know what I'm doing wrong and I just want a Vulpix on my team because it's adorable and I'm about to battle Fern then Florinia. I think it has something to do with friendship but if that is the case my Marshtomp should be enough for her to give me the Vulpix. :I
