Either by using Rare Candies or Exp. Share. You can also have the Pokemon hold the Lucky Egg to gain Double Exp when winning a battle.

You can only change the names of pokemon you've caught. You find him in one of the buildings in Eterna City I think it's next to the gym.

 

[Shadow-Lucario]

The Name Rater is a old man that appears in the Eterna City apartment
complex (On the first level, if I remember correctly). The name rater
will change the name of your Pokemon as long as it has not been gotten
in a trade.

Is there a way to check the nature of a pokemon BEFORE it is hatched?

storm393:

Where do I find the Name Rater?
The Name Rater is located in the tall building, next to the Pokémon Mart in Eterna City.

That should explain it for ya'. :3

DunderMifflinite:
Nope. You'll just have to hatch it. The values of a Pokemon are set when the egg is obtained, but there is no possible way to find the values out before hatching the egg... except for the glitch that True Justice posted under me.

...lol.

Actually, there is in fact a way to check the nature of an egg before you hatch it. Watch the video here (there is strong language in the video but it's the only video of the way to do it). It is a very useful trick but now all of my boxes are filled with unwanted eggs XD.

 

[Ooka]

Yeah, I haven't watched the video, but the only way to do it is PokeSav I believe.

 

[ClassicRockFan]

The video shows a minor glitch in where switching boxes at a certian time can show the nature of an egg. It's really helpful when you don't feel like hatching all of your eggs.

 

[Ooka]

Oh, well that's pretty nifty. xD

I wish there was a glitch that showed IVs opposed to the Pokemon's stats.

 

[~Kavin~]

Another question about hidden power. I have the IV's for Bug but I still keep getting ice what am I doing wrong? Isn't bug HP 31, atk 31, def 31, spk 31, spdef 30, and speed 30?

Yes, that's the highest IVs you can have for HP Bug... but, are you sure your IVs are 31/31/31/31/30/30?

Hey one question,

Can you EV train a pokemon using the Exp share?

 

[El Gofre]

Hey one question,

Can you EV train a pokemon using the Exp share?

Yeah, the poke with the exp share gets the base amount of exp that it would get from beating the poke normally. So beating a gyara will give both of your pokemon 2 attack EVs. None of the modifiers affecting the actual battler (Macho Brace, pokerus ect) will affect the one carrying the share, but if it has pokerus itself then the EVs are doubled iirc.

 

[Tac One]

In Eterna City, Next to the Gym on the right side, there is a Pokeball, does any one know how you get it?

There is a small opening behind the Gym to the left. You have to go through there to get it.

 

[~Kavin~]

I have a question for an espeon...would substitute be better than morning sun or hp ice?

STUPID QUESTION ALERT!

I heard somewhere that people could watch Wi-Fi battles as they are going on, like there can be an audience for a match. Is this true, or am I just being an idiot? =P

Not that I know of, you MIGHT be able to but I'd doubt it.
