I have some trouble. This problem was also the same in platinum. The thing is that there are so many HM's in the game and i really find it hard to teach them onto any of my pokemon because there are many other better skills to use than those of HMS. So i have trouble deciding which HM's will actually be useful in the long run and which will be useless. Also i need to know if there is a pokemon which i can teach many HM's too, a sort of HM mule if you will. So you see my dilema.
The HMs you will need all depend on the situation. I mean, if you're going into a cave, you're going to want Rock Climb, Strength, Rock Smash, Surf and Waterfall. If you're out in a forest, you're going to want Cut and maybe Surf. It really all depends on what situation you're going to be in. For HM slaves, I can personally recommend Tauros. It can learn 5 of the 8 HMs, and they're usually the most needed (Rock Smash, Strength, Rock Climb, Surf, and Whirlpool, which isn't needed as much). Like the person above says, Bibarel is an excellent option as well, but for use before the E4, I like Tauros. I also use Farfetch'd for Fly and Cut.
Hi there, this is my first post.
I was just wondering if anyone here has any idea when people living in Australia will be able to get the Wi-Fi Mew Event. Serebii doesn't seem to give any information on this and I was just wondering if anyone here knew.
Also, if anyone knows an alternate way of obtaining a Mew on Heartgold/Soulsilver please reply :P
Thanks alot.
... The Mew event hasn't been announced yet. The only place it has happened is in Japan, so I wouldn't expect it to come out for a while. You'll hear about the event when it's announced. I'm sure the Gen IV forums will be abuzz.
Hi all, I was wondering if someone could explain this to me.
I am EV training my blissey. She has Pokerus. I fainted 100 hoothoot which equals 200 EV points gained in HP. When she leveled up she gained 16 points in the stat. Shouldn't this number be much higher? Like closer to 50?
To give a little clarity to the above poster: 4 EVs do equal 1 stat point at level 100, and only level 100, so you will not receive the full effect of EV training until level 100. The EVs are gained gradually, so don't expect the gains in the EVed stat to be much bigger than the other stats after the first few levels after EV training it. You'll get 4s and 5s, but that's about it. Fear not though, I promise that at level 100 your Blissey will have 50 hp more than if you hadn't EV trained her. Let me just ask you a question though: why 200 EVs? Why not max out at 252 EVs? There isn't any competitive set with a spread like that. In fact, there isn't any competitive set with more than 152 HP EVs.
Sorry if I was a bit circular in my way of talking in this post, but I'm a bit tired, and I'm not quite sure how to explain it another way.
