It is more than 20 pages if you do no editing. You might get it down if you change the size, font, etc in Word or something.

I gonna copy and paste it in Word.

Problem/Question solved, many thanks,

Eviolite does it boost stats of the pokemon some or does it just boost it in battle?

Eviolite's bag description says it all: it boosts the Defense and Special Defense of a Pokémon capable of evolution in battle. The boosts aren't visible in the stats screen.

[Hikari10]

Also, adding on to what PlatinumDude said, it only works for Pokemon that can still evolve.

It won't work for fully-evolved Pokemon.

How much of the EV gets shared to the pokemon with EXP. share?

[Cerberus87]

The Pokémon holding an Exp. Share gains the same amount of EVs as the Pokémon that battled.

Is it really possible to beat wi-fi or any competitions w/o near flawless pokemon? I am starting to doubt it.

Of course. By using flawless Pokémon xD

If I breed a Female Durant with 31 Attack IV's holding a Power Bracer with a Male Durant with 31 IV's holding an Everstone, what are the chances that the offspring will have both 31 Attack and Speed IV's?

The Attack IV and nature being passed down is guaranteed. I'm not sure of the exact odds of the Speed IV (if that's what you're talking about), but it has a chance of being passed down.

Joking aside. I only have 1 maybe 2 iv 30s or better and the rest vary below 25. Is it still possible?

I'm going to venture a no. The Wifi (or competitions at least) caps at 50 if I recall and doesn't move yours up to 50. However, even if it does, you're missing all of your high-level moves so the weaker moves don't have a chance.

My levels are 50 at least I know that. I am talking about IVs. I use the strongest common sense able moves per the pokemon. Lot of the moves I use are tm moves

With competitive Wi-Fi battling, near-flawless or flawless is key. Also mostly using TM moves necessarily the best. Try breeding in Egg moves too.

How does one most effectively obtain near flawless?

If I'm figuring this correctly - about 9.5% (9 out of 85, specifically).
The Attack IVs are guaranteed, because of the Power Bracer. The Everstone guarantees the nature from the male Durant, but that leaves the IVs up for grabs. The offspring will get two of the remaining five EVs from one, the other or both of the parents. Out of a pool of five stats and two sources, that's 10 total stats, from which 2 will be chosen. That's 90 possible permutations (according to this), of which 5 duplicate the same stat from each parent (Speed from both the father and mother, for instance), which is impossible. So eliminate those 5 and there are 85 possible permutations, of which there are 9 each with a given stat in a particular position - Speed from the father, for instance. So - a 9 out of 85 chance that it'll get the Speed from the father.

Most people RNG their Pokémon to obtain them flawless. It's a non-hacking way to get flawless Pokémon without an Action Replay. A guide can be found here.

Does every Zorua that people get from Rood have 30 IVs in every stat or am I just lucky? o:

All of N's Pokemon, including Zorua, have 30 IVs in every stat.

The IVs are all fixed so no luck is involved.

Thanks for the quick reply. Probably going to work on breeding a female, adamant one with close IVs. Easier said then done though -____-

Where is the surf HM in these games? I really need it for the gym I am at.

[Medo0]

Hello there, I've just beaten the Castelia City and Gym and I think it's time to evolve my Growlithe to Arcanine, but as far as I know you can start getting those after beating the 6th gym, however, I've seen people at the start of the game with Arcanine on their teams. So is there any other way I can get a fire stone earlier?

[RedWing]

Using the Dowsing Machine, a Fire Stone can be found at the Desert Resort just north of Castelia. However, you can't access the area until you've beaten Burgh and done the Sewer event with Hugh.

Good luck and happy gaming!
