Oh, I thought it was permenant.

Porygon Z can have adaptability and Download as its trait.
the pre evolutions can only have trace and download.
so when porygon 2 with trace evolves into Porygonz, then Porygonz will have adaptability?

I have a similar question to LemonIceTea but mine involves Yanma and Yanmega.
My Yanma has Compundeyes, but when it evolves will it have Tinted Lens or Speed Boost?
Is there any factors which can determine which ability will be possessed or is completely random?

Tinted Lense yours will get.


If Yanma has speed boost initially, then so will the Yanmega.

Hi all, i have a random question. Is metronome considered hax? I dont plan on using it, it seems pretty sucky to me, but is it actually banned?

Nope, it doesnt function on chance to work.

Meh, i personally dont think its fair that clefairy has a chance of pulling sheer cold out of nowehere lol. Still, i suppose there's just as much chance of getting splash

Whoops, i thought you meant the item "Metronome".

Nah, anyways Metronome THE MOVE still isnt banned lol

 

[sims796]

Also a chance that Sheer Cold could miss horribly. It seems like a fun move to use.

Agreed.

But chances are, you're levels are 100, and Sheer Cold has only lower accuracy when your level is lower then the opponent, and higher when you're a higher level. Hmm... This makes me wonder...

Is Milotic UU, or BL? I think Claydol is BL.

... What? Isn't Millie OU? Unless some sort of revolution against bulky waters occurred that Smogon wasn't informed of, I'm pretty sure that Millie is OU.

 

[sims796]

I thought I heard talk of her being bought down like a person with an STD. It's a funny metaphor, you gotta give it time.

No bro. Milotic is BL. Come on bulky water? As far as that category goes, Milotic is destroyed by Swampy Slowbro and suicune. I'd say it's more on Empoleons level.

 

[sims796]

Not entirely. She also has a REAL healing move, wide array of status, a great ability, etc.

 

[luke]

Yeah, apparently her abilities aren't as good as they were in the third generation. Or something like that. And Slowbro is BL as well. He's weak to too many moves.

 

[sims796]

It's not that she got weaker, it's that everything else got stronger, and she didn't get much advancements (or setbacks) to accomodate this.

 

[Dark Azelf]

Milotic is more BL, Claydol is actually UU, but can still compete in BL, Ou, is a different story, whilst its still a decent spinner, you have things like CB Tar, Weavile coming in to Pursuit the hell out of you. The whole reason you use claydol is for Fighting AND rock resist, although it still has quite a few weaknesses, its also offensively retarded like Cressy lol, cant attack for ass, so its not exactly gonna over centralize UU either, heck youve even got Rotom blocking your spins down there =o

 

[flygonjack]

I'm not really sure if this is where i'm suppose to post this but i was wondering what exactally can i do to speed up the evolution process of a riolu, since it has to be happy and lvl up in the day time. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The EV-reducing berries are great for increasing happiness. In fact, items in general increase a Pokemon's happiness. You can also give it a massage at the Veilstone parlor, and have it hold a Soothe Bell.
