Oh and I caught my shiny spinarak the same day I caught my shiny caterpie. I was in the bug catching contest trying to catch a fast natured paras to help catch latias with and I had resetted several times and I was talking to my fiance and little brother and I looked back at the screen and saw a shiny caterpie and it was female! I was soooo excited because I had wanted a pink butterfree for like 8 years ever since I played crystal version. Then about an hour and a half later I was walking under ecruteak city and I was talking to my fiance about how it would be awesome if I found shiny spinarak and then I heard the shiny sound and looked down and about fainted I was so happy. But yea I talk too much when I get excited. Hope I didn't scare you away:)
Oh, cool:) I use ar to clone. I've heard about using the gts to clone but I don't think it's very reliable. If you want I can clone it for you as many times as you want. I think the last shiny I caught myself was shiny spinarak:) It was awesome I caught it in a net ball.
Your honchcrow's evs are 15/59/130/169/91/46. So he can't earn any more ev's. If you want him to be maxed out in special attack I can do it for you by erasing some of the other ev's
Individual values. All pokemon have them. It has something to do with the way they grow. 31 is the best iv a pokemon can have in a stat. I still have to look up info on it. You can go in now. I'll be there in about two minutes.
I just use ar to see it's ev's and iv's. I have no clue how to do the calculations. Yea, I know I'm lazy :) lol. If you bring it in to the wifi room I can look at it and tell you that way if you want.
If your pokemon has the poke virus it speeds things up if you want it to go faster. Other than that what you're doing is basically what I do. Except I have the power lens instead of macho brace, but it basically does the same thing. I can help you check ev's if you want.
