    Hi folks!

    I hatched a egg with a Piplup and I infected it with PokéRus and gave it a Macho Brace. Now I'm training it and I would to know if my Prinplup (Lv20, Careful nature) has good stats, since I wanna EV it:

    Atk: 32 (no vitamin used)
    Def: 39 (used 10 vits)
    SpAtk: 40 (used 10 vits)
    SpDef: 47 (used 10 vits)
    Spd: 35 (used 10 vits)
    HP: 60

    Moves:
    - Hydro Pump
    - Surf
    - Ice Beam
    - Grass Knot

    Watcha say? Are the effects of Pkrs and Macho Brace visible?

    Please reply-- tnx ^_^

    Wait replies--

    Bye!
     
    Ew. Careful nature with SpAtt EVs? I'd rebreed for a better nature personally (Modest ftw). I can see the logic of defensive EV but remember your are limited to only 510 EV. Don't forget Empoleon has 110 base SpAtt, so pumping that higher equals more damage.
     
    I've got a Modest Piplup too-- tnx
     
    Do yourself a favour and train that one then. Careful is +SpDef, -SpAtt nature, so it hurts Empoleon's main offensive attacks.
     
    yeah dom, modest or calm nature is best for prinplup/empoleon. teach it :

    surf
    flash cannon
    grass knot
    ice beam

    and max out the Evs for sp attack. carful nature is, - sp attack + sp def, and that doesnt help it. use modest becuase you will be lowering the attack stat which it will never use.
     
    Tnx Joe,
    I'll EV my Modest PIPLUP---
    (Actually, I trained that Careful PIPLUP 'cause I wanna trade it someday lol)

    Can I replace Flash Cannon with Hydro Pump? It is too powerful---

    Anyway tnx to others too--

    Bye and wait replies (as always ^_^ lol)

    Bye!
     
    huh.. OK!

    anyway I restarted my game and I received a PIPLUP with a modest nature as starter--

    How happy I am!

    Tnx to all

    Bye
     
    I got Quiet Empoleon. Unusual, I know, but I use Swords Dance on it.
     
    Swords Dance doesn't raise SpAtt, only Attack. Waste of a move for Empoleon. Quiet is meh, but sure, he's not the fastest going and got reasonable defences.
