They take down damage each turn, the first time out though it only gains the status. Yoxic Orb gets worse each time and Flame Orb is constant damage. They are used with Facade sets, Poison Heal and Switcharoo sets.

I've started to learn about EV-training, and one question came to my mind: If I have a pokemon that has some EVs for all stats (trained normally, I mean) is it possible to just lower some EVs with berries and then raise them more in needed stats? If you get what I mean. ^^

Haz March 14th, 2009 2:03 AM

I need to get to the peak of Mt Cornet. Does anyone have a map (an actual in-game map?)

What happens with that shiny, polished stone at the end of route 224 just outside of the Pokemon League? Some girl ran off and said that a pokemon visits it?

Indeed it is. That is exactly why it is consistently suggested to use the EV-reducing berries in order to adjust an EV spread.

That is where Shaymin will be once the Oak's Letter event item is downloaded to your game.

Help!! IV Breeding!!
 
I'm Wondering How To Have more than 2 30+ IV on one pokemon

bTw, is that possible??

ow yeah,

one more question..

so, the exact result of IV Calculating and HP is only when the pokemon reached level 100??

because,
yesterday i calculate my Lvl 50 Metagross, the calculator says that my Metagross's HP was "67/Poison"
i checked it by HPing to The Kecleon, but the result was "the Kecleon Turned into FLY Element"

ohhh my....

Yes, it is possible, and competitive breeders do so almost every day. The numbers are mostly random, although the IVs of the parents influence that of the child.

Most IV Calculators are only 100% accurate at Level 100, although experience can allow a player to figure out IVs at a lower level.

Well...I'm trying to breed an Ice Punch Sneasel. It's said on the net that you breed a Male Meditite with a female Buneary, then the Male Buneary baby with a female sneasel. Meditite and Bunery won't mate though. D :
Any tips? x D

jigglyppuff8 March 14th, 2009 12:22 PM

Just use a male Smeargle in a Double Battle with a Pokemon who knows Ice Punch, Sketch the Ice Punch, and use the Smeargle to breed with a female Sneasel. Simplest way I can think of.

Nice. I never thought of that. Lol, I'm so narrow minded. I'll try that thanks. ; 33

Just for the record, I believe that the Pokemon that you actually needed to breed the female Buneary with is Medicham, not Meditite. Several other Pokemon should have worked as well, such as Hitmonchan or Lucario.

Actually, there is an even simpler answer: wait until Platinum is released. There is a Move Tutor in the game that will teach Sneasel Ice Punch without the need to breed it as an Egg Move.

Can a female Pokemon and a Ditto breed?
I know a male can, but I taught my female Espeon Shadow Ball (without knowing that TM moves could also be passed on to offspring, not just pure egg moves -_-), and I'd like to be able to pass it on...

Cacttus March 14th, 2009 6:18 PM

Female pokemon can not pass down moves.

jigglyppuff8 March 14th, 2009 6:20 PM

Females can breed with ditto, it's just that the male and only the male can pass down the move. There is an exception though if both the mother and father know a move that the offspring would normally learn leveling up (but then again, it's not necessarily the mother passing down the move).

Lana. March 14th, 2009 6:20 PM

*sighs* Ah, well. I'll find another way...

jigglyppuff8 March 14th, 2009 6:23 PM

If you want another Shadow Ball TM (TM 30), you can buy another one from the Battle Tower's prize exchange, although it'll cost you a steep 64 BP.

Ru-Kun March 15th, 2009 7:08 AM

Unlike the Sinnoh dex for the national dex do you have to catch every Pokemon to fill it out or dou you just have to see them?

It is still the same, you only have to seem them

Hmmm quick question.

Can a japanese movie regigigas activate the events in US platinum? I doubt I'll be able to make it to TRU for the remainder of the event.

I heard it works the other way around (TRU in Japanese), so most likely yes.

What's the best way to spread PKRS from one pokémon to another in your team?
