    Yeah, I agreed on W being the winner (and yeah, I'm keeping a clone for myself). I thought Q might make your list as well; I was surprised you chose A and C over it.

    I'll be on Wifi later this evening; going to be doing a trade to obtain a Liechi Berry before actually trading the Jirachi. That way, it's technically "complete". Have to remember to clone it before trading, as well. :D

    We had a quick bad storm last night in NY, hope you're okay.

    W is for Winner I think ;) Top four for now are A, C, E, and W. My son prefers Jirachi's special attacks as well (and he wants to know if they can be nicknamed). However, for your own uses, you might want to keep Q as well. Jirachi is supposed to have an even spread of potential (though, imo, his cooler moves are special) and Q is very good for an attack-based Jirachi.

    W is my favourite. Just in case you have more you want to move over, I'll leave them in order of most wanted to least so you can leave out the not-as-desired ones if you need to :)

    1) W
    2) E
    3) A and C are pretty even...only 2 better SPA doesn't make a whole lot of differences, but the rest of the numbers are nearly all much better...So I guess C.
    4) A.

    Thanks again! Will be looking more regularly here now, had some household chores to do for awhile there :D

    Pick your top four. If I need to narrow it down to 2 or 3 to accommodate other transfers (not likely), we'll get to that later. Otherwise, you can let me know later (don't make the final decision yet) which two are the ones you want for you and the boy. ;)

    Just got real dark suddenly. Is it evening already? Wow, must be a bad storm out there.

    I think the "bad egg" came about because I kept the buttons held down while asking for those two. I don't really want to test that right now, so I'm not going to run that as a test. As long as one just presses the buttons and lets them go before talking to the deliveryman, it comes out correct. And once it comes out as an actual Jirachi, it's bug-free, nothing can go wrong with it. The "bad eggs" did claim to be Jirachi when received, as well, which is why I think holding down the buttons was the cause of the problem.

    Going to start that list now. Stay tuned here. See above.

    Pursuant to the below VMs, I just realized something; I don't have Liechi Berries. To "complete" the Jirachi, I should be attaching one of them. Do you happen to have Liechi Berries? I'd love if you can attach one to a Pokémon traded to me for the Jirachi if you are able to buy them yourself. A certain strain of the Flower Shop in Join Avenue has them at Rank 8, but it's a 25% chance that you even get that one as there are four shop strains, each with two different Berries at Rank 8. I might have to replace one of the shops I don't use with another Flower Shop and go for it, or even have four Flower Shops! (Sorry Janus, fitness isn't a big deal. LMAO)

    I'm posting a QT request as well, but I'd still like the one in W2 so I can eventually swap Jirachi back to Black to clone it there holding the Berry.

    I just made a discovery. My Lv.53 Pidgeot has HORRIBLE IVs. No wonder I've had trouble training it. XD

    I have 24 Jirachi in my box. Generating four more to sit in my party and may eliminate up to four from the box. This box will form my list. :) I'm keeping the bottom row free to move the final candidates in. Good thing I did a final four; this 18/30/29/28/18/25 is going into the group. After eliminating about eight candidates, I ended up doing another final four and got one that I think has five IVs in the 20s (Speed is the low one). (Oh, and yes, ANY Pokémon can go to the DW from a registered card; Victini is a very common one people send to Dreamland, according to the Global Link site, but I've seen many others as popular in other areas as well.)

    What I'm doing now is recharging the DS in question since I don't want to run out of juice while getting all the IV info. From the first 24 I've eliminated most of those with three low IVs or incredibly low Special Attack (there might still be a couple I left due to other really high IVs or with Sp. Att. being the lowest number but the rest decent), and I haven't eliminated any in the last eight generated. I sure have a lot of Liechi Berries in SS now, too; too bad those items can't transfer!

    Later today I'll list them six at a time, assigning a letter from A-X to each. This will correspond to their organization in my box (A-F, G-L, M-R, S-X in respective rows, if you're wondering), and I will promote a couple I like to the final group myself (yes, those are still available to you, they're just going on my transfer list for W2). What I want to do is have you select a top four, and if any differ from mine, it will still fill the six (I can import other Pokémon anytime). You don't have to trade for all four, either; I'm just trying to help the selection process, and then when you decide I'll have them narrowed down. :) (This is turning into a reality show...the Pokémon Bachelorette. LMAO)

    I'll take a peek around my SS PC in case there's other things of interest, as well; for instance, if EVs aren't a concern, I could get a VGC Shiny Eevee or a VGC Crobat. I also have a Shiny Milotic code that I haven't used yet myself, though it's in the AR.

    For now, back to finding employment again. :)

    Haha, I fell asleep too. :P

    Just started working on more Jirachi now. Somehow, a couple of Bad Eggs surfaced, and trying to check one froze the game. Reset, and whichever two Jirachi came up there are lost. However, now have 12 and still generating more.

    Have a laugh at this random one: IVs of 08/06/07/04/01/06.

    I responded directly on my own page by mistake, gonna go to bed now before I pass out if you don't mind going to my page to read my replies. Still getting used to the intricacies of this board (I just joined today lol).

    (obviously don't need to read my replies tonight).

    Good night!

    No, not anxious. Getting sleepy though, so won't be trading this evening. :)

    I'll give it a few tries, I wasn't going to stop on that set. Maybe I can generate a few more sets in the morning and see if I can come up with a list, then narrow it down to a top five (or even three if they really stand out) to choose from. Then we can figure out anything else (simple by comparison) and trade tomorrow. :)

    I like the third one best so far as well. I can be anal about the perfect IV arrangement (I reset my black meloetta about...30 times?) so, since you're being so nice and taking a chunk of time out to help me like this...yeah, asking me when you should stop isn't such a great idea lol.

    I still have about 10 DW pokemon in my entralink forest resetting those common little guys.

    I would love a few more attempts especially if they turn out Modest/Mild/Rash/or Quiet and Mischievous...I have a soft spot for Quirky too >.>. Other natures such as bold are fine too if the stat line ups are good and don't lower SPA or raise ATK. I know how they can be like a slot machine lol. The attack can be 0 for all I care, I'm gonna stack Jirachi special, as I said.

    Might need to pick this back up tomorrow morning though, I'm prone to insomnia. If I don't go to bed soon I'm gonna hit my second wind and end up awake all night and sleeping during the day for several weeks again lol.

    I'll still stay up though if you're anxious to get this done tonight. I definitely appreciate the effort and don't want to take advantage of the situation nor make you play slot machines to the crazy-headed extreme that I do lol. On the upside though, if you do get a better Jirachi than that the clones will likely be worth more? Not sure if clones have any limitations.

    Also, once I have a Jirachi to trade, I'm going to just clone it a couple of times and ship all with a couple of other imports for W2 (I have to clear my Unown entry as well, so picking one of those 28 specimen, plus I have kept an untouched Lv.70 Ho-oh and might find a couple other legendaries as well in there). That way I know I don't have a problem coming up with transfers. I'll make sure you get the original generated one. :D

    I just had to enter the EV/IV Checker code; turns out it wasn't there. Had generated four Jirachi and went pushing buttons getting nothing for my presses. Realized I had the code in my B and my W2, but not SS. It's entered now. :D

    First four IV sets:
    13/25/10/02/12/26
    24/00/03/06/06/15 (I'm eliminating that from contention, but has Bold nature)
    20/12/11/25/21/20 (I like this one, 25 Special Attack, Docile nature)
    08/24/28/19/05/22 (also Bold, not bad numbers except the 05 for Sp. Def. - and the 08 HP - but that 28 Defense is the highest number so far)

    Will one of those latter two be good, or do you want me to go for higher? IVs literally are like a slot machine here, so I'll be making a lot of trips to get one really decent one each time, but I'll literally have to fight to hit the jackpot. ;)

    I'm willing to grab a lot of the normal pokemon and legendaries on my own, I like earning them :D

    I don't need the Jirachi tonight, so I'm willing to wait until you do all those steps and find some nice ones. The clone ideas sound nice. I still have a legit Meloetta on Black, but a clone or two will be nice (are clones considered legal?). You can keep my legit Meloetta in exchange with the basic pokemon you said to send for the others. Or you could clone your Meloetta if you want to get your end finished all at once. If you get a couple good AR Jirachi and don't mind, I'd be willing to snag a second for my little boy...or a clone for him.

    My friend code is 1464 5841 8554 and you can just get back to me about setting up a meeting time or whatever when you have it all done. Within the next week or two is perfectly fine, you don't need to rush unless you really want to. I'm mostly still working through Pokemon Emerald (then I plan to move to Pearl, then soul silver, then black, the meloetta is on my black 2). I would like to dream with Jirachi soon though ;) I still do the daily DW.

    So we're looking at 2 AR event Jirachi with good stats (preferably 27 or better SPA) and a clone of either of our Meloettas, doesn't matter which to me. I reset my Meloetta in black until I got an epic one :)

    In case you still need my Meloetta's stats to compare to yours (for figuring out which you like more for cloning) She's Rash and Mischievous

    Possible IVs according to legendarypokemon.net are
    HP 6-7
    ATK 0-1
    DEF 10-11
    SPA 31
    SPD 30-31
    Spd 12-13

    Again, you can still have the original in trade for your work with the AR for me whether she's the one you want to clone or not.

    No, the last VM was just for you. I've traded with Dyl before. :) I was asking if you had any missing Pokémon you needed, as I have babies who need a good home. :D

    Regarding the Jirachi, as a disclaimer, here is where I get a good chunk of the codes I've used. There is a Jirachi code there. Here's what I need to do:

    1. Open game, and have both Jirachi and the IV/EV code activated.
    2. Give myself about four or five at a time.
    3. Check IVs.
    4. Return to the PC and say goodbye to the weak ones.
    5. Repeat steps 1-4 as necessary.

    Sooner or later, I'll come upon a good one. I may keep a clone on SS and eventually use it in my game there when I eventually pick it up again. Once I do have it, I then have to import it to Unova (this time, I might use W2).

    6. I select six Pokémon to transfer; probably mostly the generated Jirachi, but I might clone other non-Unova finds to clear in the Dex.
    7. I save.
    8. I reset and remove the AR, then plug in SS without the AR (so it boots to the main DS menu, skipped with an AR in place).
    9. I use the DS Download Play with the W2 Transfer Lab. I play the little minigame. I get lauded by a really excitable dude in the lab. (La meh.)
    10. I locate the Jirachi to trade you in the PC and prepare it for trading (move to that box, etc.).
    11. At this point, I'd be able to meet you in the room. ;)

    Did you need it this evening, or do you want it in the morning? I can trade the one I have in Black literally right now (already cloned, I think) if you want that, but hey...maybe another Meloetta wouldn't be bad. I can also clone the Meloetta for you and send a couple extra back (I'll trade them all back for Patrat, Woobat, and other basic finds) if you want to try finding other legendaries via trade; Jirachi is one of the rarest Pokémon and could fetch something nice. :) Problem is I'd have to clone them on my end, so another option for that is I can clone my own Meloetta (the one I know is decent, nothing under a 12 I think) and send those clones as well. :)
