On the odd occassion in battle, you will notice various things in the background, ranging from trees in the field to rock formations in caves. These seemingly inocuous background objects do have a specific function, they can be destroyed and cause you to receive an item.

The Float Stone can be acquired by destroying background boulders using the move Rock Slide in various caves and routes.this is what you should look for while battling wild Pokemon (the big rock in the background):

Natural objects are a game mechanicintroduced in Pokémon X and Y. In both wild and Trainer battles, theycan appear behind the opponent.These objects can be hit by specificmoves that would hit multiple Pokémon (even if used during a singlebattle). If they are hit, they break or drop Berries and remain thatway until the end of the battle, when the player will pick up oneitem. If a natural object can appear, a platform will be visiblebehind the opponent; any natural object will appear on this platform.Only one natural object can appear at a time, and once it is broken itremains broken until the end of the battle. The item is picked upafter the player’s Pokémon have gained experience from defeating thelast Pokémon. The player will not be able to pick up the item if theylose, run, or catch the Pokémon.

The Float Stone can be obtained the same wayYou will have to battle at Spiky Rock 1 which can be located in the Connecting Cave, The Sea Spirit’s Den, Terminus Cave, Victory Road(internal) and the Unknown Dungeon. In order to trigger it you must useRock Slide or Hyper Voicein a battle with a Pokemon and you mustnotcatch or run away from the battle, youmustdefeat it.You will need a little patience with this because there is also a chance of encountering the Hard Stone.

It can be found in random boulders in battle. No other way.
