Quick Question and Answer Thread / Breeding Questions

It depends on how you want to play...
Starmie is better when you want to damage a lot of Pokémon quickly, therefore Lapras has better Defense.
Id say Starmie is better but it really depends like I said.
 
Which pokémon should I chain? I only have 31 spaces in my PC... Usually, I chain 4-7 of each pokémon (It's a waste to only catch one...). So which and how many of each should I chain?
So here are my choices...

Buizel - Chained it before, but wasn't able to get a shiny...

Wingull - I kinda like its greeniness... But it's kinda weak...

Bagon - Have one from trade, but it would be nice if I get more...

Bonsly - People may think its shiny form looks rotten... But It looks like a cherry tree to me... I like it, but I'm having difficulty chaining this...

Hopip - Also difficult to chain... But area of chaining is better compared to ralt's... Guess I can do it...

Mareep - I have shiny Flaafy, not sure if I'd chain this... But I like the color...

Abra - Risky... (After hardwork... TELEPORT! and not sure if this one is actually good)

More ralts? - I have more than 12.... But it's my fave! T_T

Taurus - Mine is Pearl version... So difficult to get this... Failed thrice already...

Stantler - Its a pearl exclusive!

Budew- a bit too common...

Smeargle - Failed a lot of times already and I'm not sure if I actually want it...

Ditto - I don't think I can do this one... T_T

Misdreavus - Already have one... Just one...

Buneary - Have one... But it's a Klutz....

Tyrogue - I'm not really a fan of fighting types...

Azurill - CUTE! But area is terrible for chaining...

Eevee - Already have one. But area is also bad for chaining and it's difficult to find...

Farfetch'D - Successfully chained twice, NOT A SINGLE SHINY!!!

Psyduck - ... Psy?

Slopoke - Color change is boring...

Dunsparce - I get bored chaining this one...
 
Thanks for the replies guys! So Starmie is for quick sweeping. And Lapras is mostly for staying in longer?
To me Starmie seems too fragile.

Are there any other BoltBeamers?
 
Thanks! I'll stick with Lapras.
 
@Shiny Gardevoir

Something easy, maybe? Like Shinx or Flaaffy with a Static pokemon. Or Bidoof (at night) if you aren't one of the haters. =P
 
About the legendaries respawning..

Does that count for the Psychic trio(actually duo because of Mesprit being a 'running around' pokémon)? (Azelf, Uxie)
 
Cool :) I killed Azelf :(
 
How do you evolve Budew? According to serebii in the little image about evolution it has a sun and a heart. I figured walk in the park would help get him happy, but it wouldnt let me walk him. So what is another way to make him happy to evolve him?
 
Give it a Soothe Bell. Walk around, battle. It'll evolve ONLY in the day.

Use berries, continue to battle with him, give it massages in veilstone city and what GengarMaster said as well

In addition to this, if you have beaten the Elite Four and have got 10 ribbons total in your team party [it does not have to be 10 ribbons on only one pokémon], you can go to the Resort Area and go to the huge building. There you can give your pokémon massages that build their love for you by a lot.
As for berries TG has said you can use, the best ones to raise friendship, is the EV reducing berries. However as the description says, it will lower your EV's in one stat that, that berry lists.
 
In addition to all that was said, make sure the Budew is at the front of the party, and give it vitamins, like Carbos or Zinc. And check route 213 for Dr. Footsteps, as he will give you a ribbon if your pokemon is at max happiness (just in case you want to check to make sure)
 
Aight well I have just started so I haven't beat the elite four yet, I don't want to lower his ev, so I got soothe bell on him and i've been battling. He has gained like 3 levels with the bell on him and hasn't evolved. Is there a set number of steps before they get happy or what? Isn't there a poketech app to tell if they are happy or not? If so bout when can I get it. I'm on 3rd gym now
 
Just as groudonlover said, there is a Poketch app to check happiness. You can get it from a woman in Eterna City's PokeCenter.
