    Not in the slightest, 65HP and 75SpDef? You're better off with chan/lee if you insist on a fighting sp wall

    ok guys, i have a simple question regarding IVs, and its gonna sound noobish, lol

    how on earth do you check the IVs of wild caught and just hatched pokemon? like, for example, i go out and catch a lvl 36 diglett or whatever, how do i tell what its IVs are. same with just hatched eggs.

    thankyou very much

    Just go on an IV calculator (Like this one >>>here<<<) and type in the stats as you usually would, leaving the EV sections as 0. For a more accurate reading, have an IV battle, which involves having a level 100 battle and using these scores instead.

    When you go into wifi, you can choose free, level 50 or level 100 battles right? Well say you set it to level 100, it sets your stats to what they will be, taking EVs and IVs into account. The stats displayed are more accurate when it come to calculating, as it shows what they will be like in the end.

    so, basically, with the lvl 100 battles. if i catch a wild pokemon, and use it right away in that system it will automatically become itself at lvl 100?

    also, again this sounds stupid, but how do you get the poketech chaining podium screen to appear on the bottom screen? it doesnt seem to be selectable for me

    @fishyfins: Yeah, it should level up to level 100. Unless you select Open Level. But once the WiFi is over, it will go back to its original level.

    And for the second question, I don't know. Ask it in DP ><;

    You get it in the Pal Park (Rt 221) from Professor Oak

    Answer in bold, hope that helped.

    Is my heracross fully EV trained now?? My goal was 252 Atk/252 Spd/ 6HP
    I battled 76 Magikarps while having Heracross hold Macho Brace
    One Shellos with PKRS and Macho Brace
    38 Bibarels/Kricketunes holding Macho Brace
    I lost the pkrs between the time i battled the Shellos and the Bibarels/Kricketunes
    I also fed it 10 Proteins and 10 Carbos

    And if I am done EV training it, can I use Action Replay's Quick EXP Gain to level it up to 100? Or will that mess it up in anyway?

    Unless it's a bad code, no it won't. once it's EVs are maxed, they cant be changed unless you do it yourself with berries.

    Take a look at this Garchomp's IV's:
    HP: 31 /ATK: 0 /DEF: 31 /S.ATK: 31 /S.DEF: 29 /SPD:0

    Yet, it's speed and attack are higher than all the other stats by a lot. Do the Base Stats affect the Pokemon's stats that much, or is it a problem with what I entered in? I did it twice, too..

    EDIT: I'm going to mention it's EV trained in Attack and Speed. (6 in HP).

    Bear in mind it's base attack is a mighty 130 compared to a rather average 85 SpAtt, and seeing as you've EVed it thats gonna affect it too. It seems a tad strange that they're all either 30+ or 0, I'd recommend having a lvl 100 battle to make sure you're right.
