Also, what's your Garchomp's Speed at level 50 (since it's the level cap in the Battle Subway)? Its Speed at that level could be whether or not Choice Scarf let Torterra outspeed Garchomp. |

AR RNGt
I was just wondering in which ways the Action Replay dsi can help me to RNG flawless IV'ed pokemon. At first I had hoped to purchase it just to just find my SID, but are there cool codes I can use to count seeds and find exact IV's as well?
Any other helpful information would be great :) PM me please! THANKS |
Quote:
Also, you don't need an AR to find your SID, use something like Pokécheck. Using an action replay kinda defeats the purpose of RNGing anyway... |

how do you increase the occupant in the white forest? because at the moment i dont have any grass or water or anything...
also, ive been reading a bit about EV training (ive never done this before but it seems like the way forward). i think i understand it on the whole, however how do you decide which stat(s) is the best to train? also, as you can only get 510 altogether all the things ive read say to get 252 in 2 stats and just neglect the others...am i right in thinking that? |
Quote:
Generally, I look at the EV recommendations on Smogon, because I'm not great at figuring it out myself and even when I have an idea I don't want to mess it up, lol. However, usually at least one of the stats maxed is its best stat, while the other one can be another great stat you'd like to raise or a lower stat that you'd like to make not such a huge weakness. But I would still look up what EVs are best for individual Pokemon. And yeah, you have it right. With a few exceptions, builds are 252 in two stats, and then 4 of the remaining 6 points in a third stat. |

When using vitamins on a Pokemon to increase EVs, when it says "Doesn't affect <Pokemon>" does this mean that particular stat is maxed out in EVs of that stat, or does it stop working at a lower amount to stop you from only using vitamins?

Ive looked around at some other places to try and get an answer but none of them really have helped sufficiently.
what is the difference between attack and special attack (and def, SpD)? i do kind of know but i dont know where the line is drawn? like, i thought fire type moves would be special attack but then darumaka, a fire type pokemon, has high attack but very low special attack..... |
Quote:
In Gen 4 and 5 (diamond, pearl, platinum, heartgold, soulsilver, black and white) for every attack, there's a symbol on the top right that tells you if the attack uses SpA or regular Attack. The red and orange symbol is for attack power, and the grey circle symbol is special attack. So flame wheel, and fire punch are "physcial" fire attacks, and fire blast and flamethrower are "special" fire attacks. In gen 1, 2, and 3 all fire attacks are special attack. |

This has never happened to me before I think. I went on to the Dream World earlier today, and finished the session like I always do: I picked my Pokemon at the Dream Tree, and I closed my session by clicking the power button at the upper right of the screen and choosing the first option it gives, allowing me to awaken my Pokemon and get in my game what I acquired in the Dream World that day. However, tonight I went to the Game Sync in my game to awaken me Pokemon, and received a message saying how I haven't yet received all of the "dream shards" (or "pieces" I assume) from my previous time in the Dream World, and if I awaken my Pokemon now, I'll lose that stuff.
What's this about? How is it fixed? |

So, I decided I'd like to play some online battles. Random battles, trading and all of that.
I have a DS and I am about to complete the game (as in beat Ghetsis). I have a router with wifi and a functional DS etc etc well within reach of the router. Is this all I need to be able to play? And is there anything I should know before I start battling? Thanks. |
what does it mean when it says "there is a pokemon outbreak on route X"?
also, when you want to EV train your pokemon in just 2 stats do you avoid fighting other pokemon which wont benefit that stat? because if not i dont see how you can get to 252 in 2 stats... |

what about the pokemon outbreak bit? i see it on every bulletin board...

This is a bit confusing but I'll try my best to delineate my question.
In Pokémon Black & White, right before you battle with N, you capture Zekrom or Reshiram depending on what version you're using right? Then it basically forces you to switch out a member of your party for the new legendary. My question is that if you use the legendary in battle against N and Ghetsis, will you get EVs from their Pokémon? When I first caught Reshiram, it automatically placed him in the first slot of my party as I only had 5 Pokémon at the time. I was worried he would get EVs that I didn't want if I used him in battle against N & Ghetsis, so I switched him out for another Pokémon and played on from there, except Reshiram still got some EXP for having been in the fight at the start of the battle after the first opposing Pokémon was killed. Would Reshiram get EVs from that Pokémon even though it wasn't the one who killed it? If so, it's basically impossible to keep your tao legendary untouched 8( |

What does it mean to have flawless IV's?

You can also read more here. |
I used the Metalkid IV calculator, but I have no idea how to read that thing. I put in the information and saw a bunch of numbers pop up at the bottom, which of course mean nothing to me. Any help Forever?
|
I was just wondering if I needed Level 100 Pokemon in order to battle online or if the game converted your Pokemon and their stats to the highest level when battling.
Thanks. |

VGC Hack Check Help
Does anybody out there know anything of the hack checks at VGC? Do you think it would come up as hacked if I checked my excadrill's EV's using an AR code after I maxed them out the right legit way?
The problem is I just can't trust myself to do a perfect job with counting the EV's and I would really like the confirmation lmao |

OK, turns out he buys Rare Bones. As for where to GET rare bones, they're a 1% chance hold item on dwebble and crustle.

Hi, when I EV train I start at training at level 1 and of course the Pokemon I'm training isn't strong enough to defeat the EV giving Pokemon and I heard that using Exp. Share gives the Pokemon that has the Exp. Share EVs wanted or not. What's a good way to EV train?

What pokemon would I have to defeat and how many to get this Ev spread; 252 HP / 184 Def / 72 Spe. Thanks. :)
|
for 252 HP you would have to kill 42 Stunfisk while holding the Power Weight
for 184 Def you would have to kill 39 Yamask while holding the Power Belt and 4 without. for 72 Spd you would have to kill 12 Liepard while holding the Power Anklet Or you could just bring it to me and i'll train it in 10 mins ;) |
Quote:
HP - Audino and Palpitoad both give 2 points Defense - Sewaddle and Venipede give 1 Point. Whirlipede gives 2 points Speed - Basculin, Purloin, Blitzle and Woobat. They all give 1 point. The above Pokemon aren't the only ones to give those Ev's, but they're the easiest to find. With no items or PKRS helping you, you'd have to defeat 72 speed Ev giving Pokemon and so on. For Hp you'd have to defeat 126. :) With items and such, idk because I'm lazy. x-x |

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 pokemon's DW ability so I need to know if I can do it without trading.
Also, does your Friend Board reset to zero when you restart the game? |
Quote:
Um, I'm not too familiar with the DW but I'm pretty sure it won't. Since it'll still be the same Game ID and cartridge, right? \: But then again, I'm not certain. Best let someone else answer this part. I know for certain that it's 50 for the Forest though. :) |
So the box system expands this time.
Is this from manually placing in PC, or will it expand even if my capturing fills up Box 8 with Sturdy Boldore? Am trying for Dragonspiral Tower as catch location for cover dragon. |
Quote:
|
Following what he said, the box will start to expand after you defeat Ghetsis at N's Castle.
|
Quote:
|
That's because you can't get Zekrom/Reshiram from the tower until after you beat Ghetsis :P
|
But to get it to go there you have to fill all your boxes, so if it didn't expand before defeating Ghetsis then you wouldn't have to catch 24 boxes of Pokemon, which is what I've been hearing is happening for people.
|
How to get Zekrom/Reshiram from DS Tower.
1. Fill up your party and all 8 PC boxes. 2. Defeat dragon at N's Castle. It flies away. 3. Beat N. 4. Beat Ghetsis. 5. Catch at tower after credits roll. I don't know about other people, but you only need to fill up 8 boxes for the dragon to go to the tower. And it's not really worth it. Contrary to popular belief, you cannot catch them shiny at the tower anyway. |
Quote:
|
Huh. Looking over my information, it seems that you are correct. I could have sworn Serebii said that after the Elite Four was defeated, the other boxes would become available to you...
|
Quote:
Either way, backing up the fact that it is true you can get 24 boxes before Elite Four, since I've done it myself. |
I have three questions.
What levels are the Elite four? (Just so I know if I have to level up more) What about Zekrom when you have to fight him? (playing Black version) On what level does Larvesta evolve? |
Quote:
Zekrom is level 50 when you battle him. Larvesta evolves at level 59. :) |
Quote:
It's waste of effort since you can catch Volcarona on lv.70 after league. |
Quote:
It evolves at level 59. |
Has there been any other events since the Victini event ended
|
Quote:
There's also been about 5 or so different C-Gear skins which have been given out over the Dream World, but that's basically it. |
Quote:
|
Currently there is no known information, but judging from Japan's release pattern, I'm thinking we'll probably get a new event sometime soon since technically there hasn't been a wifi event for 5 months, and Japan had three wifi events within 2 months, so idk. Keep checking the Pokemon information sites is all I can really think of to know, tbh.
|
Quote:
|
Yup, all passwords are listed right here.

Hey can anyone tell me how many DW pokemon have been released including Events and in game ones eg. Musharna/Munna and Darmanitan/Darumaka. I have counted 118 but i'm not to sure :?

A little help
So, I am trying to get some pokemon from the global trade system, but it only lets you search for pokemon that you have already seen. Is there a way to get a friends pokedex data or some way besides getting all of the pokemon I need by other means?
|
I looked at Serebii but they don't have a list of Events.
I know of: Kanto, Hoen and Sinnoh starters Eevee Evolutions Togekiss Toxicroak Pikachu Smeargle, Eevee and Burmy But are there anymore ? |
Quote:
Croagunk, not Toxicroak. :P Arceus, Mamoswine, Porygon, Poliwhirl, Smeargle, Eevee and Burmy. Those are the events you missed out from your list. |

Hope this helps! I have a question myself - at lvl. 55, Shuckle learns Power Split (or Power Share, as it's sometimes called). It adds up the offensive stats of the user and the opponent, and divides it in half. If you switch out, does the effect wear off, or does the opponent still have the affected offensive stats (and the user)? If so, for how many turns does it remain that way? |
I finally bred a jolly gible but then I found out its IVs were all terrible (as in 0-6) except for its speed which was 31. So my question is should I try for another one and hope for better evs or does it not really matter. Also if I use a garchomp will no one want to battle me or should I just go for a salamence or hydreigon. Thanks
|
Quote:
It depends who you're battling. If it's just friends it may not matter. Random battle have a specific banlist which doesn't include Garchomp. If you battle say someone in the Quick Battle Thread on here then it may matter. Since Chomp is banned. \; I'd still breed one if you want to, but if you want a good Dragon type to use. Breed a Salamence/Hydreigon/Dragonite. |
Shiny Breeding!
Hey Everyone, I am breeding for my favorite Shiny Pokemon, I just got a shiny charmander with Docile Nature which is my FAVORITE nature. I use a japanese version charmander and my own charizard to get him to be shiny. I have a Japanese version DOCILE natured DITTO, if I give that DITTO an EVERSTONE so DOCILE is passed on to my egg pokemon, will this affect/effect the possibilities of the pokemon being shiny? I just want all my shiny pokemon to have Docile Natures. Please advise! :) thanks! |

How do you recognize a shiny Pokemon?
I haven't ever seen one (I guess) but I've been wondering if I actually have, and just didn't know it was. I mean, the image I get is a sparkling blingbling filled pink thingy but... yeah. It probably isn't like that. I think I've seen pictures of a shiny Purrloin which looked awesome but I'm not sure. |

Can I get patches of grass to appear in my White Forest by syncing with another player of White? I know it works by syncing with someone playing Black and visiting their Black City via Hi-Link, but will it work if I sync with another player of White? I know one person who plays White but no one who plays Black, and I want to be able to catch the Pokemon exclusive to White Forest. The writers of the games made this so inconvenient.

As for (Smogon's) competitive tiers, they are both not considered to be in the Uber tier. In fact, they are both in the "Underused" tier if I recall correctly. |
After you've beaten the main game you can catch Pokemon from the older gens, is there a full list of all the Pokemon that you can catch in BW? I mean, I doubt there's all Pokemon from every previous gen?

Gender Dilemma
Is there a better competitive gender for your pokemon? I was once told that females were preferable since most attract users were also female, therefore displaying an immunity. Is choosing boy or girl for your team members a whole lot more than just preference?

If you don't care about them just go with anything you catch =D |
VGC Hack Check Question
At a VGC, if you have legit pokemon that are cloned, will you get DQ'd?
|
No because cloning is just duplicating the data, it is not editing or varying it any way to make it hacked and or edited.
|
As long as your cloning method does not alter the data of the Pokémon, they will pass hack checks.
|
Oh, OK cool. I mean via AR clone, cuz I've heard it's illegal.
|
i have a quick question on breeding. if u save right before getting an egg from the day care man and if its not shiny soft reset, get the egg again until it is shiny? i saw this on a vid on youtube and want to know if its true or not before i spend alot of time on it
