appreciate the responses.
I broke down and used my master on it. Don't know what I'll do for Cresselia. :(

 

[El Gofre]

You are on a forum with a bustling trade center, I'm sure you'll be able to find someone willing to trade something for their master ball.

 

[Zowayix]

For catching Cresselia, try getting a Smeargle with:

Mean Look
Swords Dance
False Swipe
Spore

After it's down to 1HP and asleep, you can send in Wobbuffett and toss Quick Balls or Dusk Balls.

i'll try that

Alright, so I heard that if you give the mother of a pair of Pokemon an Everstone, she has a 50% chance of passing her nature to her offspring.
This seemed to work while I bred Snorlax, as I got 4 Careful Snorlax in a row. =3
Now, I have a Modest Gastly with an Everstone on her breeding with a Ditto. I've hatched 8 eggs, and none of them have been Modest. =/
So, did the Ditto negate this, or was I just plain lucky with the Snorlax? (Or unlucky with the Gastly) Help!

 

[El Gofre]

Ditto needs to be the "female" in breeding, so get a male modest timid ghastly, attatch the everstone to ditto and then breed for IVs.

Ditto needs to be the "female" in breeding, so get a male modest timid ghastly, attatch the everstone to ditto and then breed for IVs.

Wait, doesn't he want the Ditto to have a Timid Nature. If the Ditto acts as the female, then the Ditto would be the one passing its nature down, not the Gastly.

 

[El Gofre]

Ohh yeahhh, had a bit of a lapse in logic there :P

[True Justice]

If you've pressed trade, you have to wait for the guy on the other end to press trade.

I"ve been trying to get a relaxed bronzor for so long. Is there can way I can increase the odds of this happening at all? I've currently tried breeding, but have almost a full box full of bronzors.

Instead of breeding, first find a pokemon with the ability Synchronize (Espeon/Umbreon, Ralts, Natu, Abra, Mew). Make sure they have a Relaxed nature, and then go to wherever you can catch a lot of Bronzor (Wayward Cave, Route 206). Put the psychic pokemon in the front of the party, and there's a 50% chance the wild Bronzor will be Relaxed. Once you catch some, then give it Everstone and breed it to get more Relaxed Bronzor. I think that would be easier than randomly hatching 20 or so eggs. You can also try catching a Relaxed Ditto (caught on route 218, must use Pokeradar item). Give it everstone, and breed with a Bronzor/zong to get Relaxed Bronzor babies.

Yet another stupid question from Kev XY!

Is it possible to have 2-on-2 Tag Team Battles in D/P/P? Just like the ones in R/S/E and FR/LG (i think), where two people can have a double battle against another two people?

There are several opportunities in D/P/P where you'll find someone who's lost and they'll team up with you until you find your way out. When you team up with someone, every trainer you battle will be paired up with another trainer in a double battle. Also, wild Pokemon you encounter will be paired with another wild Pokemon as well (excellent for Shiny hunting). Once you find the exit, you and your partner split up. If I recall, you can also use this feature in the Battle Tower with a friend over the Wireless function. Or if you don't have someone to play with, a person you paired up with in-game can compete with you in the Battle Tower.

I already knew all of that...

What I meant was, can you do double battles with your friends over Wifi? As in, battle with four friends at once.
Nevermind though, I already found out that you can't. *shrugs*

 

[DARK_SANDSLASH]

So, you're saying that you can do double battles over Wifi with four friends?

 

[Ravecat]

Not over WiFi, just wireless.

Ok, thanks!
Finally I can feel satisfied knowing the truth. =P
