hopefully in a new game they will add snow! tahtd be awesome! (i doubt FR/LG will have snow though)
 
If it snows . Snowboards would be cool!
 
Hey everyone, I havent been to PC for a long time so dont blame me for dis.... but which thread do you go for FR/LG? Also when are dey comin out??
 
What pokemon knows defence curl and can use ice ball? Because i think the power of ice ball is doubled or something when def. curl is used
 
*That only applies to rollout... and that's rather irrelevant as the double attack power is still poor... not only that you cannot switch or use another attack, the accuracy is not 100% either... If the opponent just switch to Regice... well have fun wasting turn while Regice buff itself up...*
 
...

*thinks that that is because this is for simple questions and most simple questions are answered for RS*
*there's also the new FR/LG so everyone flocked there...*
 
UM i am positive that ice ball is doubled when def. curl is used, and you can do it. But what i dont know is who can use ice ball, def.curl combo. If you meant not to do it frostweaver, i want to. But if you meant you can't your wrong.

OK one time I was reading that if you max out a Pokemon's speed and attack and then use a Rare Candy on the Pokemon it will be ok and it would be like it I just got it to the next level by battling. Is that true?

Well I was reading that if you max out a Pokemon's Defense with 10 Irons then its maxed out. Do the same for speed and all the others. When that is done then it will be ok to give a Rare Candy to a Pokemon (if you give a rare candy to a Pokemon then its stats will be lower then battling other Pokemon).
Thats what im talking about.

Hmm I don't know about that but I'll try my best in explaining my theory.

Leveling up your pokemon through battling also yields extra points to the pokemon stats or what some may call "effort points." So giving your pokemon rare candy will in the long run hurt your pokemon stats. Funny thing about this, if you battle relatively weak pokemon (level-wise), doing so will yield even better stats for that pokemon, due to your efforts (it had something to do with the number of pokemon you fight per level.) Only problem is of course time, are you willing to spend time leveling up your pokemon to lvl.100 by fighting lvl.15 growlithes the whole time?

I heard there was a website that explain the whole process/equation of how "leveling up" works. The url escapes me for the moment, hopefully I can find it for you. Anyway, I hope I didn't scramble your brain too much:P.

*no no no...

1 vitamin = 10 points of Effort values in that category
so 10 irons will mean an easy 100 Effort Values of defense. Now just simply apply the EV formula in...

Rare candy allows you to level up without any physical experience and EV as well. That's what so blessed about it. You can level up to lvl 100 so you're strong enough to beat anything regardless of 0 EV. Then choose your opponents to fight for the correct type of EV. Use rare candy first, not last.

It seems like you just scarred your stat but no. EV has a cap of a maximum of 512 EV in all for every single stats, so battling for unneeded EV (such as a Rhydorn battling Abra for sp.att EV +1) will mean wasting EV. So you must choose your opponents wisely. What Kairyu said was true in GSC but no more due to EV Cap. In RS, candy up to lvl 100, feed it vitamins in areas where you want to focus on, and then battle choiced Pokemon to finish your EV training. Once you get the Effort Ribbon meaning maxed out EV points, put it in your Pokemon box and do the old box trick to see your Pokemin improve in stats by approx 60 stats if you max out EV all in one area (one category of stats accepts a maximum of just 256 EV points though) *

*for the last time, RARE CANDY DO NOT SUCK*

*Head starts to hurt*, never mind I will just go back to training the Pokemon by battling and not use any Rare Candy.

What do you mean by "what kind of place is this"? You mean the forum?
