And guess what? I followed through with it! This is a thread for people (n00bs especially) to ask simple questions that require simple answers, such as:

How does the Endure-Reversal combo work?
How high can Sceptile's speed get?
What is the best EV spread for a Nidoqueen?
What types is Garchomp weak against?
How much damage does Rock Slide do?

Stuff like that. It all belongs in this thread.

Follow all PC rules, and have fun!

Anti August 1st, 2007 3:55 PM

Good, this was made. Also ask questions about EVs and IVs here-DON'T start a new thread for something that's been answeres 600 times. Enjoy everyone! Thanks Lord Mike!

Thanks again, for this thread. saving it in Favorites.

Anti August 1st, 2007 4:00 PM

Could this be a sticky? It probably should be since many people have these kinds of questions. I guess we need some Q&As first, but it would probably be a good sticky thread.

Yeah, please Sticky Mod's. though it's their Desession, not our Crictism. too bad though. where are the mod's when you desperatly want them to sticky a good thread? Edit: Read my post's on this thread for Ev's http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=96984
Iv's are like your pokemon's Genes, more here http://www.serebiiforums.com/showthread.php?t=105223 Btw, can you ask for movesets here? if so, Read this Thread http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=97378 as you can see, i would like a rampardos set. sorry for all the links. two of were useful (if you read my post), and one was just Me wanting a Rampardos Set.

~Mithos~ August 1st, 2007 4:26 PM

okay, how do I use everstones to get the same nature, it won't work.

I Was thinking of asking the same question. how does Everstone work?

Anti August 1st, 2007 4:37 PM

Give it to a female pokemon or ditto and breed and there's a 50/50 chance the pokemon with the everstone's nature will match the nature of the baby pokemon.

So, that's what i'm doing wrong my Rampardos was Male, and i didn't put it on Ditto. Thank you. why hasen't this been stickied? please Sticky it mod's

Anti August 1st, 2007 5:00 PM

Guess the mods haven't read it yet. Here's an example of the everstone. Let's say you want an impish onix, so you have a male onix/something from the mineral group and a female onix/ditto with an impish nature. Give the ditto/female the everstone and there's a 50% chance you have an impish nature. Makes breeding for HP/IVs much easier. That was just in case you didn't understand my last post.

Yes, that probably the Answer. too bad the mod's never actually read the thread you want them to.

Anti August 1st, 2007 5:10 PM

Maybe you or I should PM them and tell 'em to check it out and sticky it if they want to. I hope they do!

MKDS_PoKE August 1st, 2007 5:10 PM

Sticky please. This will prevent many of the useless threads at PC.

Anti August 1st, 2007 5:13 PM

Yeah that's pretty much what we said at first. It's kinda the point of this thread. Other RMTs and more non-n00b questions are bumped back for useless n00b questions that have been answered 700 times. So mods please sticky this.

Yeah, the Mod's of this Forum are Smarties-Kun (i See him almost all the Time). (aragornbird it's night over here, this is the time i usually see him on). so a Pm to one of those two would be great.

Alakazam Lost the The ability to Use punches in 4th Gen, but this is 3rd Gym so all the Elemental Punches, plus Timid Nature with Leftovers, and as the last move Calm Mind/Psychic/Shadow Ball. Ev's 4 hp/252 Speed/252 Special.Atk

Anti August 1st, 2007 6:01 PM

I mean w/o calm mind. Why shadow ball? It's physiacal in 3rd gen.
So basically the punches and psychic. Can that work?

Yeah, pretty much Psychic Get' Stab, or same type Attack Power. and Heracross Can't Switch in on that. so it's Standard, and therefore works. Edit:darn we had a mod Viewing this Thread and She/He Went away. well there goes our Sticky, unless She/He's Infoming another Mod About This Thread. The Sticky has Officially been cleaned, and Thrown in the Garbage/away. btw, i forgot that Shadow Ball was Physical in 3rd genaration

Well, they'll come on in a few Hours or something like that. better yet, since you Pm'ed Smarties, he'll be looking at this thread. btw, they are 10% Boosting Item's, and that isn't a lot. you should be using Item's like Choice Specs in 4th gen, and Item's like Leftovers in 3rd Gen. Leftovers is the Most Commonly Used Item in the Whole Game, and the fact that you're able to clone in 3rd and 4th gen, you should do it with Leftovers. here's a link to a cloning guide, http://faqs.ign.com/articles/787/787198p1.html

Outspeeding is Important, so you're right, with Jolly Nature+Choice Scarf, will be outspeeding a lot of slow things, plus the fact that nobody's expecting a Jolly Nature Rampardos. just Adamant. Edit: Smarties-Kun is on now. and in this thread.

Smarties-chan August 2nd, 2007 6:16 AM

Many of these questions could be asked in the D/P simple questions thread, but I do see the logic behind this. The GB Strategies and Movesets forum is getting cluttered with pointless threads.

I haven't decided whether or not this thread deserves a sticky yet, so I'll watch over it for a couple of days and see how much it actually affects the amount of pointless threads. However, I don't want to see any where-can-I-find-this-Pokémon/item etc posts like Lord Mike put as his examples; I want the questions to be strictly about moveset related matters.

*edit* I'll also wait until I hear Aragornbird's opinion on the matter.

Exactly, why wadn't i thinking? this the Pokémon Strategies & Movesets Forum. so this Thread should pretty much be about about R/S/E or DP Movesets. but mainly Dp, also, Breeding Questions should go here, http://www.pokecommunity.com/forumdisplay.php?f=63 but i don't know if they can go here or not, but i don't think so.

Of course I am aware of the breeder's corner, but since it's hardly active enough for a simple questions thread, questions like ''what Pokémon can Zigzagoon breed with'' can go here as well. (and yes, I know there's a faq about egg groups and such, but there are always people who don't bother reading them, and many people don't even seem to know the breeder's corner exists.)

I'm just gonna put a Link to the Beginners Breeding Guide, http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=15870 btw, if you didn't read the First/Second page, if you Put an Everstone on a Female Pokemon/Ditto. there is a 50% chance that the Baby/Offspring will have the nature of Ditto, or the Female Pokemon. and it's also good if the Female/Ditto has High Iv's in one or more Stats. that way it will breed off the Iv's to the Baby too. Calculate the Iv's with these Iv Calculator's http://www.serebii.net/games/iv-calcdp.shtml or, http://www.serebii.net/games/iv-calc.shtml

I don't about the Rest but use/Calm sassy for Bellosem, Mightyena Jolly/Adamant,Shaperdo Adamant. Use this Ev Spread for Both Mightyena or Shaperdo, 252 speed/252 atk and Either 4 hp or Defense. btw, Garchomp is weak Agenist Ice, or Dragon. but mostly people use ice, because it has a 4x Weakness to it.

Umbreon, this is the standard:

[email protected]
Bold Nature
EVs: Can't remeber but someone knows
~Mean Look
~Baton Pass
~Toxic
~WISH

I'm pretty sure that's it. Use mean look and BP it to someone who has a good type matchup on the pokemon who is trapped.

EDIT: Wish is usually in confuse ray's place. Sorry on the mistake.

How many times do I have to battle Magikarp man WITH POKERUS in order to complete my EV training in speed for Raichu? Its speed was only 273, but I don't see how it wasn't higher.

When pokerus wears off, it leaves a smiley face.
does that mean they will still get double EV's, they just can't spread it?

Salamence is better, no doubt about it. but if you like less used pokemon, then it's perfectly fine to go with Dragonite. but Dragonite's More Bulkier, and won't be Ko'ed from unless it's from a Strong Dragon/Ice Attack

It's your choice. so sure if you if you feel like you need for your team. it's kinda if your team is defensive or not. if it isn't use it, if it is don't use it.

Anti August 3rd, 2007 5:21 AM

Flareon lost the Most, and some Ou pokemon such as Tyranitar, Alakazam, and Some others gained the most.

Zam? I though he lost the elemental punches...Zam rocked with those. I though flareon sucked anyways in 3rd gen too.

Yeah, Leftovers is the Best Item for Umbreon. btw, i wasn't even that good at Pokemon until i figured out about all these sites. Umbreon has Lost it's lost it's use in 4th Gen due to Close Combat, and all these New Attacks severely Reducing it's Walling Cabalites. in third gen however, it makes a pretty good wall. but doesn't have a very good movepool, and it still doesn't in 4th genaration. that's why it's Rarely Used anymore in 4th Gen. but Players who are Not Experinced, Such as your Friends. My Old Friend Ricky didn't even Care about Natures/Movesets and all that Techinal Stuff, he even thought there was such a thing as a Cheerful Nature in R/S/E. I could beat kids like that. Just read my sig, i'm willing to breed for decent Iv's. I wouldn't be scared/crying if i lost to your friends or mine, i'd just be thinking to myself i'm doomed/ can't belive i lost. After all, it does take skill to win. And they don't have it. I'd also faint, and therfore would have to go to the Hospital. It's like having a heart attack/Getting Ran over by an Ambulance. Got anymore questions anyone? We're happy to help.

My umbreon on Leafgreen had leftovers with;

Umbreons now gone a bit easy to kill in the 4th generation... a Megahorn from Rhyperior, or Heracross, a Close Combat from Inernape, Heracross, or Staraptor etc.

Movesets/EV stuff for BP Umbreon and Ninjask would be fantastic.

Bold Nature
EVs: Can't remeber but someone knows
~Mean Look
~Baton Pass
~Toxic
~WISH

I'm pretty sure that's it. Use mean look and BP it to someone who has a good type matchup on the pokemon who is trapped.

EDIT: Wish is usually in confuse ray's place. Sorry on the mistake. Copy and Pasted from page two, as for ev's 252 Hp/252defense/4 Special Defense. Not sure on Special Defense, but Umbreon want's to be able to take hit's. like said before, Umbreon doesn't have much of a Movepool. so if you don't like using this set, there probably isn't anything else you can use.

Thanks. I think I actually asked the same question yesterday but hey, oh well. =D
Better here so people can see it right? ^____^

I have a question about breeding with the Everstone. Im breeding a relicanth for an Impish Nature, and I caught an Impish Male, but he had the wrong ability. So if I give him the Everstone, will I probably get an Impish one?

And if my Pokemon has a face on its page after getting Pokerus, I know it still gets double EVs, but what about using EXPshare?

i think it was the first/second page, but i'll copy and paste it. Give it to a female pokemon or ditto and breed and there's a 50/50 chance the pokemon with the everstone's nature will match the nature of the baby pokemon. Exp.Share doesn't double ev's or anything, but if you switch out to a different pokemon it will gain the same ev's as the first pokemon you had out. more here, http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-dp/hp.shtml and third Gen, http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-rs/hp.shtml that's how you find out how much Ev's the pokemon you were fighting gives.

And whats the best berry for evolving Feebas, and where do i find it?

azupanda August 3rd, 2007 10:44 AM

Another question that you'll most likely be able to answer Itachi. Much questions from me most likely today because I'm trying to learn the whole EV/IV thing. When I hatch a Pokemon at it's at lvl 1 what do I do from there? Do I want to go start the training with him as my first Pokemon and fight or do I put exp share (or whatever it is) on him and switch to a stronger Pokemon?

Wiki Berry, that's the Berry you're looking for. azupanda, i would put the Exp.Share on, as a level one pokemon won't even harm the pokemon on route 201. because the pokemon are there are levels 2-3.

Calm, Bold, or Modest. Milotic can do those things good. some things you can consider are reading this Milotic Thread, http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=96689 I think that when your using Bold, it's Role is still Special Walling. even though your increasing Defense, not Special Defense. Calm, still Special Wall. Modest, it can do a decent Job as a special Sweeper. But Milotic does Special Walling best. Use,

Milotic @:Leftovers
Trait: Marvel Scale
Bold Nature
Ice Beam
Surf
Rest
Sleep Talk. or,

Milotic @:Leftovers
Trait: Marvel Scale
Bold Nature/Calm Nature
Surf
Ice Beam
Rest
Hypnosis/Mirror Coat. Don't worry about the last set, Milotic' a Bulky Water, and probably will able to take hit's while the Rest goes on for 2 turns. btw, don't switch out when using Rest. otherwise, Rest it doesn't count as Rest, and the Pokemon could wake anytime. not just 2 turns. i experinced this on Netbattle. Btw, they made Cloning harder then it was. becuase it's actually risky to do in Dp. Very Risky. I think Cloning was Easiest to do in G/S/C.

Use this Ev Spread for Both Mightyena or Shaperdo, 252 speed/252 atk and Either 4 hp or Defense. btw, Garchomp is weak Agenist Ice, or Dragon. but mostly people use ice, because it has a 4x Weakness to it.

Remember this back from back from page two? i already said what Ev Spread you should. is it the moveset your Looking for? is it 3rd or 4th gen? obviously 252 atk and speed makes it a Sweeper. sorry if i sounded rude, but i wasn't trying to be.

Yes but Night Slash get's a crictal Ratio+Stab 140 power+1.5= powerful. While Crunch rarely get's crictal hit's.

They work better, which i suggest using some fast flincher's. while slow pokemon can't do it as well as the fast pokemon can, such as Aerodactyl btw, where is metalkid's Iv Caculator? i've been trying to find it, but can't.

Moi. August 3rd, 2007 12:24 PM

this might sound like a stupid question but how do pokemon get EVs. do you battle certain pokemon or use certain moves?
could someone explain or give a link?

Here. full guide explanied, http://www.serebii.net/games/evs.shtml what pokemon gives what Ev's? http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-dp/hp.shtml http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-rs/hp.shtml Can somebody answer my question from before? here it is, btw, where is metalkid's Iv Caculator? i've been trying to find it, but can't.

azupanda August 3rd, 2007 1:07 PM

Hmm for EV training for HP what do you reccomend I fight.
I was looking at that list on Serebii but none of them seem very common.
Either that or I was looking at it to fast.

Bidoof, route 201. that's where you commonly fight bidoof/Starly. btw, trainers who have pokemon that are not very common you can use Vs/seeker to fight them over and over again. just switch out to a pokemon you don't use very often if you don't want that Ev. Edit: or is level 100. because if you don't get Exp.Points, then you don't don't get any Ev's. Lickilicky gives 3 Ev's, combined with Macho Brace. and Pokerus (if you have it), then you get a total of a whopping 12. 12 divided by 4, (yes the number has to divisible by 4) =3. 6 divided by 4=2, (and yes you can get 6 Ev's).

Eos Aduro August 3rd, 2007 1:31 PM

Ok, I need EV's for 6 Pokemon

Gardevoir - Modest
Metagross - Adamant
Tyranitar - Adamant
Tangrowth - Impish
Milotic - Calm
Relicanth - Impish
Hitmonlee - Jolly

And Im also either going to use Milotic or Tangrowth, I cant decide whether or not to wait for a Tangrowth Swarm.

sims796 August 3rd, 2007 1:31 PM

I always EV train in front of Pal Park for HP EV's. Gastrodon & Skuntank gives 2 each, along with Shellos & Stunky, 1 each.

Yeah, those would be the second best. but more commonly is bidoof. The Chatot Pirate

Garderivor (sp?) 252 spd/252special attack/4 or 6 hp.

Metagross will sinch he's adamant 252 atk/252 def/4 special defense

Tyranitar 252 atk/252 speed/4 hp

Tangrowth 252 hp/ 252 special atk/4 defense or it could be 252 defense and 4 hp

Milotic 252 defense/252 special defense/4 hp

Relicanth 252 defense/252 hp/4 special defense?

Hitmonlee 252 speed/252 atk/4 hp.

Leftovers is the Most Commonly Used Item in the Whole Game, and the fact that you're able to clone in 3rd and 4th gen, you should do it with Leftovers. here's a link to a cloning guide, http://faqs.ign.com/articles/787/787198p1.html
