i just grab a piece of paper and make tally marks after each battle until it reaches the number of EVs i need



when breeding with power items, are the odds of transferring the IVs from both parents 100%?

^ Yes. So two IVs can be passed for sure, one from each parent.

If Clefable is male, you need a Ditto.

If the Ditto is Calm, an everstone. (Give it to the Ditto and Breed. When the mom is holding an everstone, it is more likely to pass down it's nature). If it's not Calm, just breed several eggs until you get a Calm one.

To get a Lileep with Recover, you need a male Corsola with Recover and a female Lileep or Cradily. So if you have a male Cradily, breed a female one from it and a Ditto.

Breed the two. If the female Lileep or Cradily is also Careful, give it the Everstone. Again, if not, just keep breeding until you happen to get one.

Winning the lottery in Goldenrod Radio Tower will get you another Masterball.

Marill is in Mt. Mortar, but I can't find one. Do you have to Surf for it, or is it just rare? Thanks in advance!

It's a 1% chance of finding one on the first floor. If it's the Swarm Pokemon of the day, then the chances increase to 40%.

Depends on your Pokemon.

But yes. It'll be easier to get Ditto with those natures because it'll lessen the amount of eggs you'll have to hatch to get those natures on Cleffa and Lileep. As for Recover, you'll need to have a male Corsola with Recover and breed it to a female Cradily/Lileep in order to pass on the egg move.

so i need to carry over the egg move first?

Ehh, I've read up on lots of walkthroughs but nothing is helping me...
What are the best elements to defeat normal elements?
I know normal is good against none/bad against none.
I don't have a fighting type.

Help me? :L

You have to run around on 1F during a swarm day (when chances are 40%) or attempt for one in the Safari Zone.

Unless you have a fighting move, Rock and steel types are best.. as they resist normal.

are you trying to beat whitney or something?
if thats the case just look up the stats of those types of pokes...like for instance miltank's sp.def is lower than it's def
http://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/miltank

and because of that, special attacks are more effective than physical

Whitney is walled by the female Machop you get from a guy for a drowzee. The machop is female so attract won't do anything.

2nd look at all the edges that have the #'s and if the 2 #'s equall 5 u dont flip any of those cards over becaus none of them are 2s or 3s (usually i mark those with the voltorb memo so i dont forget and flip a possible voltorb over)

3rd u should be low on remaining cards that are possible 2s or 3s so it takes a little pressure off and it just got put right back on because the fewer cards the harder the guesses now u have to be mathematical i will give u a few ex. one row has 6 pionts with 2 voltorbs this means that there is a few possible 2's and 3's involved 2 of the cards are voltorbs meaning 3 are not the 3 cards can vary in possition and number this is where luck comes in the cards remaining could be 1,2,3 or 2,2,2 in any order so in the end the row could look like this:

1 3 V 2 V or 2 V 2 V 2 or anr variation in between

hope i helped get back at me if u have any more Q's

why does my meoth get more exp than my other pokes?

i've noticed this several times, and i can't figure out how this happens...

for example: i was ev training my munchlax by making it hold an EXP share; and my meoth beat a slowpoke with payday, and the exp gets divided up, but the meoth gets 142 exp, whereas the munchlax gets 126 exp

both pokes are from trades, and the meoth is not holding any items...so, why does this happen?

Hey, well i don't know if it's a problem, but I want to know if it's just me or it's happening to everyone, what's happening to me:

When i turn on my game and go to the Mystery Gift section, it used to say "Make a Wish with Jirachi" event, now it says "There were no gifts found"
for the past few days. Is it me or is it that they cut the Jirachi event and are they putting a new event?

Are there any good EV-training places in HGSS?

Places with only those pokemon that give EVs in Attack, Speed, Sp.Attack and etc. I mostly need only these.

Usually I do my EV training in Diamond, but I got tired of always transferring my pokemon from one game to another.

here let me give you another example that i just now did:
my meowth beat a lv2 pidgey and a lv3 pidgey, and then i had my munchlax & pachirisu (which are also from trades) do the exact same thing; and then i had a poke that is not from a trade do it

meowth
lv2 - 25xp
lv3 - 39xp

pachirisu
lv2 - 22xp
lv3 - 34xp

munchlax
lv2 - 22xp
lv3 - 34xp

lucario (not from a trade)
lv2 - 15xp
lv3 - 23xp


it's from Italy (apparently pokes from another language get a lil more exp)
googled the OT = MATTEO and ID number = 30045

i got it from light_mew here on pokecommunity in april
and i found a trade thread from it's orginal owner =)

One hot spot is route 43. You can encounter masses of girafarig, mareep, flaaffy(all of them give sp.atk EV's), and pidgeotto(speed EV's.) And at night, noctowl come out(2 hp EV's.)
Or for HP, national park at night has ONLY hoothoot, which give 1 Hp EV.
