6th Gen X/Y Quick Q&A

Status
Not open for further replies.
Hey guy. I was just wondering if the max amount of perfect IVs a single Pokemon can have is five, or if they can have all six perfect IVs. If the answer is five, then does special attack count as an stat that can have perfect IVs?

They can have all 6 max, including Sp. Atk.
 
Attack stat determines the power of your physical moves, and strength of your special moves is determined by Special Attack. Fire Punch and ThunderPunch are physical; Gust is special. If you want to know what moves go into what category, search "attackdex" on Google and visit the first result. :)

Also, I'm merging your thread with X/Y Quick Q&A.

Merged.

Thx buddy. Very Helpfull. But i have another one:
Can Pokemon X/Y trade pokemons with Black/White2 and Gold/Silvers Remake?
Thx.

When Poke Bank comes out, you have the ability to transfer Pokemon from the Gen V games to X/Y, but not with the Gen IV games.
I know, but it's blummin' shiny!!
I can't just box it!

While shiny Pokemon look pleasing, not all of them have the natures/IVs to be competitive. I, for one, keep shines because of their value, and only use them when they have good IVs (seen with a Blissey I bred myself, as well as a couple of shines given to me by trade).
 
I have quick question,
Iv seen someone on a twitch chanal offering to duplicate a shiny throu a trade glitch or exploit. Is this possable or just a scam? Im asuming it is a scam and i view that as a cheated pokemon any way but was curios if this is real or not.

And the blue hexogon(or what ever shap it is) is that to conform a pokemon is legit or not?

The blue hexagon means that the Pokemon was obtained through legitimate means.

That person could be offering a legitimate service, but it's more likely a scam. I lost two shinies once to someone who offered to do that exact thing for me.
 
When using the Masuda Method, if your pokemon only "seem to get along" instead of "seem to get along very well" does this affect the method as well or just the amount of time it takes to get eggs?
Just that my Electrike seems to be taking A LOT longer than all the others did.

getting both X and Y?

I got X just after it came out and played to crap out of it, and now considering if it's worth it or not to get Y. I want to start a new game without losing all the pokemon I got now and i don't want to wait for the Pokemon Bank to come out.

Just wondering if there are any benefits of owning both?Are there any differences besides pokemon exclusives?
 
Well besides the pokemon exclusives, there's also the item exclusives. Except for the exclusives there's not really any reason to have both unless you just like collecting them. xD
 
Team Flare's plan is ever-so-slightly different between versions, but that's the only difference besides version exclusives.

I mean no disrespect but I must have missed something... Ive beat y and bear x traded over stuff from x and restarted x again and I don't see any difference in between versions as far as team flares plans. Yveltal and xerneas make changes to some of the dialogue but really only place I can remember that being different is in the mans house in anistar and really the only difference in the dialogue there is what happens when xerneas/yveltals time is up and their vitality runs out.

Really the only difference is exclusives, but I got y for charizard y and mew two y and to me it was worth it. I mean it was super fun to replay the story again also.

As people have said already, there's really not much difference aside from version-exclusives. If you want to own both, though, then go ahead. After all, it's your choice! :) Also, this doesn't need to have its own thread, so I'm merging it with X/Y Quick Q&A.

Merged.

think there could be a way to clean it up a bit? lumping all the questions into one 100+ thread doesn't really help anyone, just makes the answers harder to find. Probably cut down on threads like mine too.
 
Guys I ran into another shiny! And this time it was a ****ing Moltres! I'm so excited to catch this thing. I saved after it fled because you don't get a chance to catch it the first time you meet it.

Two questions. Will the Moltres be shiny every time I encounter it from now on? Including when I eventually narrow it down to Sea Spirit's Den?
 
5IV Croagunk question

Ok So I'm in such a dilemma.

I've got 3x 5IV Croagunk where they lack following...

5IV and miss Speed
5IV and miss HP
5IV and miss Defense

Which one shall I use for my team in competive play? Remaining ones shall I store for 5IV breeding of course!
 
Because I'm pretty sure that I want the other Iv's they all got but not sure which one of these 3 stats that I can live without.
 
ok quick question, i have a vulpix with its HA and 4 perfect Iv's in Spc. defense spc. attack speed and HP but i want defense as well, i have a ditto with a defense iv and im breeding it with my vulpix thats holding a destiny knot, is there a chance that the dittos defense IV will transfer to the offspring who will have the other stats of the mother thats holding the knot?
