All i've learnt really is that usually if you put the move you wanna pass on 3rd in the list it passes better odds of being on the baby, if it doesn't help i'm sorry, i never had trouble with it

Seems better for simple questions, after seeing the replies. Anyway, after googling it, the answer seems to be no, but if it helps, my Lillipup managed to gain 39 levels while I went through all 8 badges. Maybe get a second game and keep replaying the main story up til the 8th badge? idk best advice I can give right now. XD

Simple but frustrating problem: trying to pass stealth rock and spikes to a ferrothorn through breeding with a dwebble, but I can't get an egg. Level 29 male dwebble and level 52 female ferrothorn; should be compatabile, but am getting nadda. May there be anything I'm missing?

Bulbapedia says Spikes can only be learned through Chain breeding, so you may want too look into this.

Does those wings (Clever wing, Genius Wings, etc) work just like the vitamins ?

Yes'ir!
However, they only give one Effort Point for the corresponding stat. You're better off with vitamins. xD;

Can someone tell me where I might find the Effort Ribbon in these games?
Click to expand...

I think the lady in the house North of the Pokemon Centre in Opulucid City gives it to you.

She keeps saying:

"Oh, your [Pokemon Name]...
next;
could try a little harder."

which is the typical behaviour of the Effort Ribbon NPC from prior games.

Where am I supposed to go to find the Team Plasma Grunts that Clay said escaped when the bridge lowered?

Cold Storage, a bit down from the Pokemon Centre. Go inside the first building on the left of your screen, swish around on the ice a bit, and there's an open, giant blue crate at the very top left-hand corner where they're literally "chilling."

Can the Musharna that I captured in the Dreamyard can it not pass Telepathy down? It does have it as an ability I caught on the Friday Event thing.

I think it can pass down the ability, I can't see why it wouldn't \:

Dunno if this question has been asked, but why is it that your own character is pixelized during battle? It annoys me, looks like red, blue and yellow all over again.

It's because the sprite is drawn far away, and then they move it in so it gets pixelly.

They should've drawn it close-up; it wouldn't have gotten pixelly far-away then u.u'

I'm trying to breed a shiny Heatmor using Matsuda method but, I have a question:

If I use a Japanese Ditto and an Female UK Heatmor in Daycare, will I (eventually) get a Shiny Heatmor?

As far as I know the Masuda method is still in effect in B&W.
A Japanese Ditto and UK Heatmor do count as two different regions, so yes, you will eventually get that shiny sooner than normal. :D

I can be a little bit of a fail when it comes to shiny hunting so heres my question;

Is a Pokémon in an egg determined as a shiny when you recive it or when it hatches? I'm hatching Eevee's at the moment so it would be cool to know. :P

Breeding in B/W has kept the same features as previous games. The main new inclusion is with the Dream World abilities, and how those are passed on to offspring (only the mother can pass them down if bred with anything in it's egg group, and can't if bred with Ditto).
