I'm trying out a casual poison monotype challenge (meaning I won't bother posting about it) and I just found my first shiny pokemon. It's Rattata, a pokemon I like, but I can't use it. What a bummer. My very first shiny that wasn't Gyarados! Has anything like this ever happened to you? What...

Most of my pokemon are utility-based. Each one is a specific tool to manipulate the game in some way. How can I ever be attached to a toolbox? The way I play is monstrous to pokemon, I feel. I breed and catch hundreds only to select one with the best IVs. I have a stack of Rare Candies that...

I just caught a bunch of pokemon out of the Entree Forest and among them was a pair of male and female Lotad. The male was caught first, just so I could have it in my pokedex. Today I found a female and chose it over female Lickitung (shudder) and Sunkern. Anyway I found out that males and...

Dream World limit I was reading up on the Dream World, and apparently there's a 50 pokemon limit. I'm confused about what this means. Can I only catch 50 pokemon per cartridge, and then no more? Or is it just that the Entree Forest can only HOLD 50 pokes at one time? I want to have every...

I have a question regarding EVs. When your pokemon is holding a power item, such as Power Anklet, and your EVs in both Attack and Speed are nearly finished, you fight against a pokemon that gives Attack. Which EV gets added in first, the EV from the wild poke or from the power item?

Well, apparently it's Berserk due to the nature of the move Rage, and Gene due to the incorporation of Ditto. I tried using Copycat against both opponents' Pachirisu, against Ditto and against Smeargle. Each time it became Pachirisu. I guess it doesn't work with Copycat...That's fine. I knew...

Berserk Gene Glitch http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Transform_glitch To put it simply, I want to have in my possession a Transforming Blissey. I got a Happiny with 0 IVs in Defense and a Hasty nature, just to make it slightly more fair. With this glitch, it should be possible...

The only thing I really hate is how you can't buy coins. I hate stupid chance minigames in any videogame. No Porygon for me. :(

I'd have to say the follow-me feature, and the Poke'tch with all its wonderful apps. Maybe the stat EXP mechanic from first gen.

I usually use a Dusk Ball, not for its catch rate but for how it looks on a legendary. It looks especially good on Mewtwo.

As soon as I found out you can't use most of the legendaries in Wi-fi battles, I stopped caring about them. I don't even use them in-game anymore, the exception being Mewtwo because he's a badass.

Azelf kept powering up and then killing my team with a single Swift attack. I haven't had a chance yet to take on many of the others, so it's the hardest I've attempted to catch.

Is it possible to recieve some kind of one-on-one tutoring through IMs or some such? I want to brush up my skills but I have no desire to meet people, and I have no means of transportation. Please, please, please, PM me the answer. I'm scared of big giant threads.

Scenario: You're EV training, and a pokemon (we'll say Tangela) Knocks Off your Macho Brace. Do you still get the double EV gain for having a Macho Brace? I've checked around and there are answers that say yes, and some that say no. I tested the same principle with the Lucky Egg on Heartgold...

Hands down, I value my utility pokemon over my fighters. Utility pokemon are capable of an enormous variety of tasks that either eliminate the need for certain items, or make catching/hatching the best fighter way faster and easier. My most useful pokemon...it's hard to say. I just finished...
