Quick Question and Answer Thread / Breeding Questions

In a way, yes;
EVs aren't a necessity. Without EV training the HP of your pokemon will still grow.

You just have 1 HP EV on that pidgey now. When you gain 3 more, you will get an extra +1 in HP in one of your future levels.

Sine your pokemon can gain a max of 255 EVs in one stat, say that you trained that pidgey to have it's HP maxed with 255 EVs.
That means when it's level 100, it will have gained an extra 63.75 HP. (255/4 = 63.75)


Your pokemon has a base level of HP that it will automatically gain.
EVs, IVs, and natures work in conjunction with the base stat and effect the stats growth, for better or for worse based on how you breed it/train it.
 
My next question:

IV Breeding... How does this go over? Because it turns out that the Ralts that now has 236 HP EVs has 0 HP IVs (luckily however, it has 30 Attack IVs :)) So I need a better-IV'd Ralts for EV training.
 
When a Pokemon is breed it is given random IVs, then:

- One random IV is overridden by one of the parent's IV for that stat.
- One random IV (other than HP) is overridden by one of the parent's IV for that stat.
- One random IV (other than HP or Defense) is overridden by one of the parent's IV for that stat.

So you end up with 3-5 completely random IVs and 1-3 IVs being inherited.
 
So then it takes a very long time to get flawless IV's... Thanks Myles :)
 
Just to make a quick point - "No-one wants hacked Pokemon" I want hacked Pokemon, especially the hard to get ones & shineys.

I tryed for 8 hours to get a shiny Red Gyrados,, without success so in the end i bought a hacked one off ebay, & i was just as chuffed to get it when it came via GTS - I dont want to waste 20% of my waking life searching for computer sprites, & neither should you all. Also I would have liked to trade for one, but no-one in this community are prepared to trade you anything rare unless youve got some Japanese event super rare or something, to offer in return . Am i right ???
So yes im in the market for hacked shinys if members want to offer them, cos i just want to play with them & battle, not hunt for them for hours on end - Rant over.

Question - Who else felt deflated when after spending 6 months to get all 493 pokes in the Nat.Dex. You went to see Prof. Oaks expecting to get a special item as a reward, & all he says is well done (bugger off with nowt). You'd have thought Nintendo would have given some special item or unlocked something in the game to recognise all that effort ???
 
No one wants hacked pokés since there is no effort in getting them and they are banned from all official tournaments. Also, hacked shineys if you've taken an already existing Poké and made it shiny, no one is complaining. However, giving a Poké ultra-high stats and illegal moves is considered cheating, and is nooooot good.

Also, since completing the NDex requires you to have all the GBA games, Nintendo wouldn't want to lock something up on that you have all of them since it would create unecessary jealousy and encourage hacking, something Nintendo is trying to discourage.
 
Does Pokemon Platinum run off it's own time or DS time?

Because I'm trying to catch rotom and I wated until my pokemon time was 8:05 but it was still daylight out... so, which time should I wait til in-game until I can catch rotom?
 
This question has probably been asked a hundred time before but oh, well...

What is the fastest most efficient way to get a team of four to level 100 without cheating? I have two DS's and I traded my Pokemon back and fourth to abuse the double experience but I just wanna know the best way. If you don't mind send me a VM/PM so I can tell when it's answered or not without me having to comes back to this thread.
 
Since having 1 Poke with Magma Armor/Flame Body decreases the steps it takes to hatch a Pokemon, does having more then one Poke with Magma Armor/Flame Body decrease the steps even more?
 
Where can I find a Razor Fang? Serebii says in Route 214, but where exactly?
 
I don't have enough BPs and I need one right now so I can evolve my Gligar.

Click to expand...

To trade back and forth dosent give you more exp boost the only thing that does give exp boost is if your pokes have a differnt Id no then your own that and having a lucky egg equipped is the best way without rare candys or cheating to get to lv 100
