You already said that you had the right nature. Just because I'm not a perfectionist doesn't mean that I think Pikachu can kill Rhydon by zapping the horn.

Again, not what I meant. Most of the kids at Serebii think that with EV training, anything is possible. What you said made you sound like that. When I realized that only someone who sounded like a Serebii kiddie thought my Cresselia was good, I simply hit reset.

Either way, back to resetting.

Matt-O July 2nd, 2008 6:00 PM

Again, I know that there is a limit on how good a Pkmn can be based on its IVs. But mid to high 20s in all of the major stats is preety good in my opinion.

And for the record, I do use Serebii as a resource for seeing what a particular Pkmns stats are and for finding move parents.

airconditioning July 2nd, 2008 6:06 PM

Not what I meant (again). I use Serebii's Pokedex as well. I'm referring to the POKEMAHN MASTAHS that populate the Serebii forums.

Matt-O July 2nd, 2008 6:11 PM

Well I don't know what they're like, but you do realize that we have the occasional -what you call them- POKEMAHN MASTAH around here too. I was just saying that there is some space between godly and crap as far as IVs are concerned.

Gulpin July 2nd, 2008 6:14 PM

I have this team in the makings:
Crobat, Cloyster, Poliwrath, Jumpluff, Camerupt, Vileplume
Major weakness to Psychic, and Waters w/Ice moves (starmie)
What pokemon should I replace, and what should I replace it with? I came up wich these, but I'm unsure:
Parasect (UU) , Cacturne (UU), and Shiftry(UU)

Matt-O July 2nd, 2008 6:24 PM

Is this intended to be a UU team?

Yes, with a few BL. (I think that crobat is the only BL)

It's either UU or OU. If you put BL pokemon in, even one, it's and OU team, so keep that in mind when you select spots for your team. Crobat is banned from UUs (which is why it's BL), so it would make your team OU putting it in.

devilicious July 2nd, 2008 7:20 PM

Yup. Just like Anti said, a single BL Pokémon makes a team OU.

BL isn't an actual tier- BL Pokémon are just Pokémon banned from UU.

airconditioning July 2nd, 2008 7:21 PM

Unless you play on 4chan. For some reason, the majority of battlers there play BL/UU. :/

devilicious July 2nd, 2008 7:52 PM

The people from /v/ usually just use their favourites. That's why it's fun to play with them.

Lately, I've only been doing roulette battles. They own. ♥

The Hero Without a Name July 2nd, 2008 8:24 PM

I got a breeding question...

So I got a female Buneary with 31 attack IV's. I'm gonna breed it with my Medicham (with all 3 elemental punches), who has 31 speed IV's. If they have a baby, and it inherits both maxed IV's, what characteristic will it show?

airconditioning July 2nd, 2008 8:30 PM

I have no idea, and I doubt anyone else does, either. Keep an eye out for both characteristics ('Likes to Thrash About' and 'Alert to Sounds').

The Hero Without a Name July 2nd, 2008 8:32 PM

Oh...

What's PokeSaving btw?

airconditioning July 2nd, 2008 8:56 PM

Pokesav is a program that allows you to edit every possible facet of a Pokemon save file- including the Pokemon itself. Pokesaving a Pokemon refers to creating/ hacking a Pokemon in Pokesav.

The Hero Without a Name July 2nd, 2008 9:00 PM

Ohh... How do people get it?

It is a program that you can easily download but you need a ds flashcard.
And with what EV's I have to train my shiny Ponyta?

if they inherit max atk and spd it will show, 'likes to thrash about' or 'alert to sounds.'

Houndoom88 July 3rd, 2008 1:55 AM

What physical attacks will my shiny rapidash learn?
Is Megahorn, Flare Blitz, Hypnosis, Will-o-wisp ok?

devilicious July 3rd, 2008 1:57 AM

What's the Rapidash's nature? I wouldn't recommend planning a moveset before taking it in consideration.

Houndoom88 July 3rd, 2008 2:09 AM

Quiet nature.
What do you think about it?

Ársa July 3rd, 2008 2:48 AM

No, definately not Quiet. Jolly would be better suited.

[email protected] Lens/Life Orb
Jolly
252 Atk, 192 Spd, 64 HP
Flash Fire

Flare Blitz
Earthquake / Will-o-Wisp
Megahorn / Will-o-Wisp
Hypnosis / Will-o-Wisp

Houndoom88 July 3rd, 2008 2:53 AM

But my shiny Ponyta is Quiet Nature. It raises Sp. attack and lowers Speed. So i have to EV train the Sp. Attack and speed?
