Natures
 
I just got a requested a team. The list said to get my zapdos with a certain nature. How do you change it's nature if it can't breed.

Basically you're screwed and have to start your game all over again to get a different natured zapdos.

=(

You already caught your Zapdos? Sucks for you if you did. As long as the nature doesn’t decrease Zapdos’s Sp. Attack or Speed, then you should be fine. Use the nature list at the top of this forum as a reference.

Zapdos can outspeed most things in-game even with a -Speed Nature. I always get -Speed Natures in-game if I can't lower anything else because even my Slowbro can outspeed a bunch of things.

Zapdos can outspeed most things with a –Speed Nature IF it got EV trained in Speed, and I doubt linx knows what EVs are. Without EVs, its Speed is an icky 212, and that’s only if it has a 31 IV in that stat.

I wouldn't be satisfied with - Speed on Zapdos. Odds are you won't use Drill Peck (and certainly not any other physical attack move) so - Attack would be better. Then again in game the preferred Hidden Power might be hard to get so there's bigger chance of using Drill Peck in game than on NB. But Zapdos can't take a Rock Slide anyway, so I'd prefer - Defense over - Speed too.

I got HP Grass on Zapdos at 65 BP so I guess its not impossible to get the right HP.

^ Hes right

but it takes a while and is based on luck...

It's indeed not impossible and Grass at 65 on Zappy is awesome IMO. But like enyce said, you either have to spend an awful lot of time on it, or be extremely lucky. I guess you are. =P

I have to say bullcrap on this. If you got a preferable HP on a regular Poke that you can breed and to some extent manipulate the IVs, then I might believe it. On a legendary though, that you have to catch, level up to 100, calculate IVs, and then reset if they are wrong, I just don't believe it. Not only do you need a TON of Rare Candies (to the point where you would have to cheat to get that amount), but there are just too many different combinations for you to get HP Grass at 65.
