I'm really not to sure if I'm posting this in the right thread, but hey, I'll ask anyway.
I used to do breeding back before I lost my Diamond game, but I never really understood IVs and EVs. I still don't, but I caught a Chansey and I was looking at it's IVs and I was wondering if they're good...

HP - 9
Speed - 23
Attack - 13
Sp. Atk - 25
Defense - 30
Sp. Def - 30

>_<
If I remember rightly, 31 is the max IV value, so I'm assuming this Chansey has good Def/Sp. Def stats right? It's nature is Calm aswell if that means anything xD!

Sorry if this is in the wrong thread xD

Your question is alright in this sticky, and if you wanted to, it could've been in the Quick Questions and Answers sticky instead.

Anyways, Chansey is mostly good in Sp. Defense and HP, so your Sp. Defence IVs are pretty good. However, your HP IVs are really low. Calm nature is actually a great nature for your Chansey as it raises Sp. Defense, but lowers Attack which is fine as Chansey isn't good in attack either way. It'd be best to keep it as that nature, but you'd probably have to find a new Chansey with better IVs in HP if you want to EV train it or whatnot. So basically you should try to find a Chansey that has good IVs in both HP and Sp. Defense [30 IVs is fine]. For natures, try to find a Chansey that has the nature of Calm, Sassy, Careful or a neutral nature.

Thanks for your reply it, it's greatly appreciated ;)

I'll go out and find a Chansey with better HP IVs.

If by before the Elite Four (and Champion), you meant before the National Dex, to get Fake Out on Aipom before then, you have to breed a female Aipom with a male Glameow. I don't see any other Pre-National dex chains that allow it.

Abilities are random regardless of the parents'.

Not exactly a question directly related to breeding, but whatever. Aipom can be found by slathering honey on honey trees.

Sorry, there's no way to get Fake Out on Aipom without the National Pokedex or trading. Once you get the Nat'l Dex though, it's pretty easy.

Meowth (Fake Out [Level - 9]) -> Aipom
Glameow (Fake Out [Auto]) -> Aipom
Skitty (Fake Out [Auto]) -> Aipom
Makuhita (Fake Out [Level - 13]) -> Spinda -> Aipom
Sableye (Fake Out [Level - 18]) -> Spinda -> Aipom
Sableye (Fake Out [Level - 18]) -> Chimchar -> Aipom
Sableye (Fake Out [Level - 18]) -> Buneary -> Aipom
Makuhita (Fake Out [Level - 13]) -> Chimchar -> Aipom
Makuhita (Fake Out [Level - 13]) -> Buneary -> Aipom

Someone forgot Smeargle, Seel and Spinda to name most missing.

No, Unown isn't breedable (same as most legendaries and all baby Pokémon).

EDIT: As well as Nidorina and Nidoqueen, for some reason :\

ugh, the no-URL thing killed my previous attempt at this post since I quoted a URL, lol.

1. If your pokemon had more than one IV @ 31, is it random which of the multiple possible characteristic phrases you get? For example, if you had all 31s, then the phrase could be, "Often dozes off," "Likes to thrash about," "Capable of taking hits," "Mischevious," "Somewhat vain," or "Alert to sounds." Which is chosen? Or is it random?

2. Not sure if you really have to be at level 100 to confirm that the IVs are at 31. If you check and record the ranges on serebii after each level, and combine the highest minimums with the lowest maximums, you can confirm one value if they're the same number, and I've been able to do it in the lvl 20s. For example, at level 15 you get 20-31, then 15-28, then 28-31. From this, you know the value must be 28. (it's usually not that easy) This only assumes that the serebii ranges are always correct. They seem to be, but I'm not sure.

You Know, I really don;t know the whole deal about breading other then the fact that you get your egg and hatch it. It could just be you have bad luck or maybe you did do something wrong, I don't know. So you know, I really, can;'t help you ^_^ sorry man but if I find out I'll tell you.

I think that only works if the pokemon holding the everstone is female.

Is the Ditto foreign? Everstones don't work on foreign Pokemon.

BTW, it works for females and Ditto.

Perhaps as a trade off for the whole 1/2048 chance of breeding a shiny thing?

...Yeah, I don't even know anymore. That's how those Game Freak guys made it and you'll just have to deal.

How are the members of the hitmon family able to get egg moves? Like getting bullet punch on hitmontop.
I'm sorry if it is an easy question but it doesn't make sense to me.
