@RobbyBevard:
Anyone else want a modest nature (+spc attack, -attack) solar powered charmander? I got a couple of them now.
Sure I can go for one.
Need anything in particular?

I'd like one and have a bit to offer…

Nah, I got pretty much everything I wanted already, or can evolve/breed for them. Surprise me.
Me too, I have some modest natured, serene grace togepi's for anyone who want's one. They have 4 perfect IV's.
Holy crap. Just caught a togepi with FIVE perfect IVs. Of course one of them had to be attack, and the missing one is speed… eh.
But given that I also got a ton of 3 IV togepis, it should only take exactly one round of breeding because of the predict-the-RNG-to-learn-which-IV-comes-from-which-parent-and-then-switch-in-the-appropriate-parents trick.
Also, if you put the Synchronizer at the front of the party, but fainted, does it still increase the chance to give the wild pokemon the same nature? If so, I've wasted a lot of time starting with Munna/Xatu and then switching to Smeargle... ugh.
Anyone up for a battle :B
By the way, got a great laugh;
Just got level 51 Aegisslash… for a level 1 female espurr. I dunno why the guy wanted that, but hey, good deal for me!
And it's named "Mr. Slash". neat.

Yes it works, from what I understand.
Wow. I've already filled up about half of the Pokedex. As in, I've actually caught 360 out of 718 Pokemon. Crazy.

Hmm. Wouldn't it be cooler if it's name was just "Slash"?
…Damn, someone needs to make a Guns n' Roses Pokemon team.

I've seen about 400, but I'm not trying very hard at all to fill the dex, since once the bank opens I'll be able to fill a huge chunk of it from my old games… including my old favorites monsters rather than their current stand ins.

I like the "Mr". Its cute. (As is mine was named Cutter.) I mostly wanted to get one and try it out before I evolved my duoblade. I understand the perks and bonuses to its stat set and abilities but… I just don't like its design anywhere near as much. And I like the eviolite duoblade. Hrm. But now I know it can use swords dance while in defense mode, so that helps...
And clearly it should be you that makes the Guns and Roses team.

Well, I haven't started my playthrough of Y yet, so…
Axl Rose - Roserade
Slash - Aegislash
Dizzy Reed - Spinda
Well, that's three. But as for the rest....

Finally got my Sheer Force Bagon. I'll be IV breeding it soon, so I'm bound to have plenty extra if anyone wants one.

That is an awesome catch!! Are you gonna try to breed Nasty Plot on Togepi? Or not gonna bother with egg moves?
Also, you are correct; the synchronizer just has to be in the first slot. Doesn't matter if it has full HP or is fainted.
–
I think I'm going to start breeding to get a "perfect" Ferrothorn (31/31/31/x/31/0). Already got a Ditto with a 0 Speed IV (and perfect HP and Atk!) so that should make things smoother. I wanna breed it with Spikes and Leech Seed though, so idk if I want to prioritize the 0 speed IV or the egg moves.. anyone got a suggestion? Either way, gotta catch some Cacturnes.

Nah, not gonna bother with Nasty Plot, thank god. It'll do what it needs to without that.
Why not breed a bunch of 3/4IV relaxed male ferros with the egg moves you want on them (via safari zone caturne and ferroseed), and then go ahead with the 0 speed ditto? No need to prioritize one over the other. The extra step is a little annoying, but totally worth it for that perfect moveset (just did a similar process for one of my all star team members…)
And what's your fourth slot gonna be- power whip or protect?
Looks like you still haven't added me.

If you aren't breeding on Nasty Plot, I have some parent Togepi's you could borrow while breeding - I have a male Timid w/ Perfect HP, SpAtk, Speed and a Female Modest w/ Perfect Atk, Def, SpAtk, Speed. Both have Serene Grace, let me know if you are interested! It's the least I can do for all of those awesome translations you provide.
For Ferrothorn, I'm leaning towards Power Whip. Still not sure yet. The idea of stalling w/Leech Seed/Protect is interesting but idk if I'm patient enough to use it. What do you recommend?
Hey Mugen, saw on the PSS that you're still searching for an Articuno. Got one on my B2 copy so I could trade you the one I have on Y.
Hey, i need the legendary birds to complete the Dex. I would only trade and then trade back. Can Someone help me with that?
Hey Mugen, saw on the PSS that you're still searching for an Articuno. Got one on my B2 copy so I could trade you the one I have on Y.
What would you want for it? I have a few hidden ability Tyrogue with 4 perfect IVs and a handful of Timid Protean Froakies with 5 perfect IVs. Also, is Articuno's German name the same as its English one? If not, could you nickname it so that it is? I'd really appreciate it.

I just caught a shiney Zoroark.
Anyone have a Genesect?
Guys I need help!! I keep getting disconnected evert 2-3 minutes but I don't have a problem getting back on. This cost me 4 battles that I was sweeping :(
Is there some item that boosts speed other than Choice Scarf? I swear I'm getting out sped by Pokemon that I shouldn't be in the Battle Maison.

Tyrogue is fine. I'll rename the Articuno for you. I'm online soon so you'll get it today ;)

Thanks for the offer!
But I actually already got what I needed ;)
I'm no pro (not by a longshot) but power whip also sounds better to me than protect. Too impatient for the long game.

You rock. Thanks for the Articuno, man… :)

Oh. It doesn't actually help with getting all 6. Still need to get 1 in 31 odds-level lucky for that. Mostly it's good for creating more 5 IV things.
1. Put 2 Magikarp with completely different IVs in every stat in daycare. Make sure destiny knot is on one of them.
2. Save immediately (before daycare man outside turns around).
3. Get egg, hatch egg, check IVs.
4. Determine which IV came from which parent, and which one is random. (ex: FFMMFX, where F = female, M = male, X = random)
5. Reset game.
6. Take out Magikarps. Put in pokemon you actually want to breed (with destiny knot, of course).
7. The first egg you get from this point on (no matter what the parents are) will have the same FMX pattern as your last Magikarp baby. Ditto just serves as a substitute for whatever the other parent is not. The random stat will also have the same value as that one did.
So basically, if you've got a box full of mixed gender 3 IV mons, you can get a 5 IV one after just one egg by picking the right combination (after getting the Magikarps to place the random stat in the slot you don't care about. You could also wait for the random stat to be 31…).
If you don't like the FMX spread from a given Magikarp baby, just save, and try again.
You're welcome, Mugen ;)

The X's value is completely random then?
The X's value is completely random then?
Yeah. Because Destiny Knot only transfers 5…
But the thing to note is that the value of the random stat remains constant (for the next egg) after reloading your save.

Does this method help with gender at all?
Does this method help with gender at all?
I believe the gender is determined.
One big discussion of the method can be found here:

I](http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/696959-pokemon-x/67690066)t takes them quite a while to realize that using different-IV magikarps is a superior method than using 3IV anything elses.
Not available right now
Well aware about the Pokemon Bank wait. I meant in general.
I have one on my White 2
Nice. I'm very interested in trading that Zoroark. I've been tipping constantly after catching my Mareep. Anyone confirm that this gen is the easiest to find shineys?

Also added you but I have a question to you.
Since this is the first time for me with the IV stuff wow do you know the perfect IV when the IV judge is a bit ambiguous?
Since this is the first time for me with the IV stuff wow do you know the perfect IV when the IV judge is a bit ambiguous?
Hmm? IV judge isn't ambiguous at all when it comes to perfects. That (and zeroes) are the only time when he's not ambiguous.
But you should always be using metalkid's calculator anyway.
Hi guys, I'm Trying a load of stuff with my team (not aiming for competitive, just for not getting my ass kicked so much) so i'm gonna be challenging people and just doing sometimes strange things in battle with strange teams b: Just a heads up.
Edit: By the way, great Battles Rei (I Messed everything with my decisions :p ) and Obelisk (Wow, your team is really fearful)

Ah! I think I get it, so everytime he talks about a stat in particular it means it's maxed is that it?
