No, that's because the parent's nature does not effect the newborn's nature.

Yes it does, if equiped with an everstone there is 50% chance that the nature will be passed from the female parent. As such, you are just getting unlucky Destiny.

I completed the dex last night so now it's time for me to move on to battling but I don't really have a set team. I know next to nothing about what moves are good, IVs/EVs, which items are best ect, so hopefully you guys can help.

Here's what I've used mostly:

Staraptor lvl72 with Macho Brace
227/216/117/86/90/173
Aerial ace
Close combat
Fly
Brave bird

Roselia lvl73 with Rose incense
169/123/99/167/148/128
Aromatherapy
Mega drain
Cut
Grass knot

Empoleon lvl73 with Wave incense
222/161/179/196/171/120
Drill peck
Surf
Waterfall
Hydro cannon

Bellossom lvl73 with Miracle seed
220/142/143/158/167/111
Lucky chant
Drain punch
Leaf storm
Giga drain

Shaymin lvl 73 with Micle berry
237/198/178/178/175/171
Seed flare
Aromatherapy
Substitute
Energy ball

Obviously I'll need one more but I can't decide what to choose, and I'd also like another suggestion in place of Shaymin for situations where I can't use it.

Thanks in advance =]

OK,i'm not going to rate,i'm jsut going to point out the obvious:On wi-fi all your pokemon atomatically go to lv.100,so its EVs that are important,not their current stats

I hate to tell you, but it's going to be less effort to raise a competetive team from scratch. EV training is done by battling very certain pokemon- battling anything and everything distributes the EVs badly and to places they are not needed. The only way to save these pokes is to EV wipe via the use of -EV berries, and you will need hundreds to wipe an entire team. Read through the sticky in this forum call Compiled 4th Gen Guides, it details how EVing and IVing is done, the art of team and move composition, and is generally a very helpful thread. Sorry, but you're in for a lot of work to get into competetive battling

That's the impression in-game gives to many a player: It's extremely easy to beat.
 
>.< i'll try later tonight, but is outrage on a garchomp a must? or can i use dragon claw if i'm lazy?
 
Okay so what should I do now? Do the stats of your Pokemon have to be around the same number, like all in the 200's or anything? Or should I pick which Pokemon I'm going to use before I go any further?

I'm having a huge problem putting outrage on my Garchomp, I've got a male Dragonite(With OK IV's finally) with outrage, and a female jolly gabite, even when i put an everstone on my Gabite my baby Gible isn't Jolly Nature? Have I done anything wrong, or is just my luck?
Click to expand...
It's just luck. Keep trying, you'll get Jolly Gible eventually.
 
can someone give me the best EV spread of a mixape. Im trying to decide whether to go with Smogons
23 atk/ 252 sp.attk/ 232 speed

or Serebiis
128 atk/ 252 speed/ 128 sp.attk

Whichever one works best
 
ok but the moveset lets say if i didnt have HP ice, what moves could i substitute it with?

Infernape@life orb
Naive
Close combat
grass knot
flamethrower
????
i was thinking either nasty plot or mach punch what would be better
 
I would change grass knot for thunder punch and maybe choosing nasty plot would be better for flamethrower. Is just my opinion.

grass knot is used to take out swampert, hippowdown and other heavy ground types like rhyperior so thunderpunch does not make too much sense and flamethrower is a must have with me maxing out its Sp.attk so that does not make too much sense either.

What TGA said.

Anyway, the final slot is either taken up by Nasty Plot or HP Ice. HP Ice is there for salemence and DNite who otherwise resists the entire moveset. I myself find NP to be more beneficial, but it's dependant on the rest of team.
 
I think you didn´t understand me... I said that you should put nasty plot as your fourth move to power up flamethrower.
You are right grass knot is more usefull, thunderpunch is for water types but grass knot is also effective to them.
 
Still, do you support the idea of Hypnosis-using Drifblim? It's trait can make it faster than Deoxys-S with absolute max speed with just 136 EV+nature or 228 without.

I appreciate the help from Froslass, Zurich, and Fabian the fastman thanks a lot for the advic!!! =)

Um are there any other picks than Glicor for a good physical, and what would be a good last pick for the last slot? (if there any changes I should make please point them out I would really appreciate it^^;)
 
For alakazam i would use the next moveset:
Choice specs, timid nature
psychic
shadow ball
focus blast
and maybe grass knot/energy ball/trick ( you need good prediction if using trick)
Evs are ok for a timid nature

For a phsicial wall i like weezing

leftovers@ bold nature
fire blast/flamethrower
t-bolt
will-o-wisp/haze
