    Anyone know the best nature for a magnazone, I just chained six shiny magnamites with different natures on all of them.
    SubSalac Sweeper

    Salac Berry Magnet Pull Timid Moveset
    ~ Substitute
    ~ Charge Beam
    ~ Thunderbolt
    ~ Hidden Power Ice
    EVs: 28 HP / 12 Def / 252 SpA / 216 Spe
    While Magnezone is seldom thought of as a sweeper, it can take on the role quite effectively. The omnipresence of (Choiced) Steel-types in the OU metagame provides Magnezone with many opportunities to set up. Thunderbolt and Hidden Power Ice form the infamous "BoltBeam" combo that hits every Pokemon in OU, bar Shedinja, opposing Magnezone, and Lanturn, for at least neutral damage. Charge Beam nabs Magnezone Special Attack boosts needed to pull off a sweep, while Substitute lets Magnezone avoid status effects and can safely lower its HP into Salac Berry's activation range.
    The given spread lands Magnezone at a Speed stat of 234, enough to outpace positive base 110's after Salac Berry's activation. With 28 HP EVs, Salac Berry will activate after three uses of Substitute. An alternate EV spread of 228 HP / 100 Def / 84 SpA / 96 SpD with Leftovers lets Magnezone survive four Seismic Tosses from Blissey, making it much more of a threat against stall teams.

    ^^ Use that.

    Gah, where's the best place to train pre-elite-four? D=

    I need to grind up for the Elite Four and Victory Road is getting weak...

    That and it's hard to train Togetic.
    You can just try beating the E4; it may make you lose money by losing, but I bet you can reach till Bruno atleast and can grind against the E4 members.

    Victory Road... lol

    I'm almost done grinding to 50 there. It takes about 4-6h to grind six unevolved Pokemon there from 45-50.

    ...oh god, FIVE HOURS BETWEEN 45 AND 50!?

    I think I'm going to faint...

    My original plant was that but it took so long I just gave up. =|

    I think I'm ready. Do you?

    42 Sp. Sweeper Typhlosion
    42 Technician Ambipom
    42 Crappy Togetic
    42 Swords Dance Gligar
    42 Miltank
    44 Dragon Dance Gyarados

    I THINK I should be okay now, although I have a feeling Gyarados is going to get over leveled in the beating of the Elite Four...

    ...oh god, FIVE HOURS BETWEEN 45 AND 50?! I QUIT.

    Actually, more like ten in total.

    I just grinded Vulpix, Larvitar, Dratini, Mareep, and Eevee from 45 to 50 and it took ten hours. Dratini's now 52, because I'm using EXP Share to level up my Level 41 Exeggcute, since it sucks hard without Psychic.

    Also, here's a link for all the WiFi events that are expected to come to Europe / America at some point:

    I'm expecting another four hours to EXP Share-level Exeggcute, so that'll be 14h.

    I really don't think you can do that. Just ignore the unimportant calls. xD

    People, please don't go off-topic and hold convos here. Only post here if you have a question, or are answering a question (and not to say 'I don't know/I wanna know too' as that's spam as well), or maybe want to thank somone for answering but that isn't really needed either. This thread isn't for cluttering up.

    I can't get one until the Battle Frontier, after the Elite Four.

    O_O I keep hearing people doing it with mid-30 teams, HOW THE HECK?!

    Item spamming, I suppose?
