Nakar posted:Working on my Elite Four planning. The types represented are Fire, Water, Steel, and Dragon, and I'm not 100% on who to bring. Vivillon really ought to have a spot, and could do okay against Water-types with Energy Ball. Blaziken obviously is coming because he owns and is a Mega-capable evolver. I'd use Yveltal but he doesn't seem very good other than the usual legendary BST. My starter, Greninja, can spam accuracy/evasion moves to basically cheap his way through any fight, but his movepool is kind of weird and a bit assy and he seems like a much more awkward mixed attacker than Infernape was. And then there's Gengar, who hits 9 types super-effectively, all types neutrally, can't be trapped, immune to Normal/Fighting/Ground, Thunderbolt access, and has a Fairy-type move because what the hell. So I got Poison/Fairy/Ghost/Electric covered. I think Greninja really wants to be a special attacker: its SpA is higher than its Atk and its special movepool is generally a little better too. I know its signature move is physical, but something with that much Speed doesn't need priority. Teach it Surf, Ice Beam, Dark Pulse, and then you have a few interesting options for the last moveslot depending on what TMs you have available and what you want to do: Extrasensory, Taunt, Substitute, Grass Knot... quote:Mostly I'm concerned about the amount of Rock and Ice available to my team*. I also have, and have had all game, exactly gently caress-all in terms of pokemon capable of using Ground attacks. Grabbing a Gible and raising up a Garchomp seems like an option there, and then I could use his Mega form in postgame for hilarity. But some Ice is also something I think I need, and I don't know what to use. Lapras is too slow, most other types are too fragile, Abomasnow can go Mega which is nice but he causes Hail and that's awkward and he's also fragile as all poo poo. Something else with Ice Beam maybe. I guess there's always good old Mamoswine. It actually has slightly worse bulk statwise than Aurorus, but less utterly depressing defensive typing.

Managed to get a Gabite from Wonder Trading, bred up a few Gibles, traded one on the GTS for a Cubone, then got my friend to let me borrow a Japanese Ditto he got on Wonder Trade to breed up a bunch. Wonder if I can get a second Ditto without having to trade and arm and a leg. Next I'm gonna breed some Bulbasaur for fun and profit on the GTS and Wonder Trading with the Cubones. I don't even have the second badge, dicking around with Pokemon is too much fun! This game is AWESOME. Now all I need to do is figure out how to get my hardcore max-Attack Marowak from Heart Gold into this one to use as breeding stock...

Started a wonder trade chain while doing some homework this morning. Started with a German Bunnelby, about 15 trades later, I end up with a Japanese Fennekin. Best feature.

Gaseous Snake posted:I hate GTS because it'll have Dittos that ask for things I can easily trade and have them already be taken. If they'e taken, take them off the listing!!! This has happened to me quite a bit.  I don't want to wait for the end-game to start breeding my dudes easily. I was all set to get one that just popped up that wanted a Smeargle in return, but boom taken. Gotta keep at it.

When do Dittos and the day care become available? Also, this game has some crazy diverse Poke distributions. It seems like every route has 6 or 7 guys that don't show up anywhere else.

Maybe I'll have better luck in here...Would any kind soul be willing to trade me a female Noibat? Level, nature, etc. doesn't matter. I just want my little bat buddy before the 7th freaking gym... I only just got to Lumiose, so I don't have a lot to offer. Friend code is: 3007-8093-8361.

It was 300k  And it was a women's model, don't know if they have one for men too. I think they have some pretty cool clothes, like a vest with a tie.

I would also wish to borrow someone's female Noibat for one of my own in the midgame, though I've never really dabbled in breeding.

Nakar posted:Something else that just happens to have Ice Beam would probably also be fine. What does Aurorus focus on anyway, physical or special attacking? I didn't raise it enough to see how its stats diverge. Aurorus definitely leans more toward special attacks, with an estimated 120 base SpA. Estimated base Speed is 70, so it should outspeed most things ingame if you EV it for speed and level it up a bit. On the defensive side it has good HP and SpD but low Def, so it'll probably be able to take neutral special hits okay, at least.

Dr. Red Ranger posted:Yay, got wonder traded a sap sipper female goomy! It's nature lowers speed for attack, is that bad for it? It's not the best, since Goodra normally wants to be a special attacker and has decent enough Speed that you don't want to lose 10% of it. Still usable, though -- a 10% stat difference hardly matters ingame anyway.
