Quick Question and Answer Thread / Breeding Questions

I'd suggest you look at a website with AR codes to find what it can do. Google could probably help you.

I tried that, but all that came up was changing for wild pokemon. I just need to fix the mistake from breeding my in game chatot with a naughty nature.
 
Where is the guy in Platinum that tells you what type of Hidden Power your Pokemon has?

I can't find this guy for the life of me, I thought he was in the Battle Tower but that was the IV guy, I thought he was in Celestic Town, checked, not there....

And there's no way I can find something like that in the guide.

I could just get on Wifi and figure it out through a calculator but I just want to know the type. I feel bad right now and just want to continue... U_u;

He's in the Game Corner's Prize exchange, I believe.
 
will nintendo be able to track if you have "legal IV" or not on wi-fi? and how bout world champ, do they check and how do they know?

Do you mean in the championship or in-game? In-game they wont allow you to post videos with pokemon with too many 31 IVs. Im not sure about the championship though, i suppose since it is possible to get good IVs like that that as long as its possible they will accept it.
 
Is there a way to get an egg the nature you want?

Also in the wild is there a way?

You can't get it exactly but you can alter the odds greatly.

With eggs, just have the female Pokemon or Ditto hold an everstone. This will make it so the egg has a 50% chance of having the nature of the parent holding the everstone.

For wild Pokemon, if the first Pokemon sent out has Synchronize, the wild Pokemon will have a 50% chance of having the nature of the Pokemon with Synchronize.
 
I have another question....


You see, I'm going to breed some Torchics.

Now, I know there is a way to get natural learnset moves onto babies BEFORE the level they learn them.

I was wondering if I put two Blazikens knowing Brave Bird and Flare Blitz in the Day Care, would the Torchic babies know them...?

I don't think so since in Torchic's learnset, those moves aren't there. And if that's the case I'm not going to waste my time raising a female Blaziken when I can just put Ditto in and get started right away.


Help?
 
Moves can be passed down from the parents in the following ways:
1. The father knows an Egg move.
2. The father has a TM move that can be learned by the baby.
3. The father and mother both know a move that the baby can learn leveling up.

If the move(s) doesn't meet this criteria, the move(s) won't be passed down. Torchic can't learn Brave Bird or Flare Blitz, so those moves can't be passed down. So, if I understand you correctly, you should "get started right away".
 
Just one question...

You know the ability Klutz, is the item Macho Brace affected by it? Are there any other items exempt from the effects of the ability?
 
EXP. Share, Lucky Egg, Macho Brace, Power Anklet, etc. will all work on a Pokemon with Klutz.
 
Can you soft reset for the platinum birds? Or are they set when they are announced?

They're set when they're announced; you can SR for one of them by saving in front of Oak, but the other two probably won't be that good.
 
How can I achieve all the special PC wallpapers in Platinum? Yes, I know about the German website that updates one weekly, but how else? Will I just have to stick to that website for good, or is there any place / way I can get my greedy hands on them faster? XD

I have checked for them too but Im not finding any other sites. This is the most popular sit for them so I guess no one else competes.
 
i really need an answer to this.

if you giratina in distortion world,i heard he is in turnback cave after the elite four.

is this true?
 
I have a big question dum dum dum.

If I breed a pokemon in it's evolution, say Scissor (Spelling error ) Why does it have different egg moves then Scyther? Will I get a scissor if I breed it?

And, do I need a female/male eevee for the male female pokemon?
 
How do I find the Pink Legendary Pokemon? I know how to get the other two but I can't find her now.
