That change is probably for the better. Still worth replacing Brick Break with though.

Internet Kraken posted:I've spent all day catching dittos in the friend safari, hoping to get an ideal one to make breeding simple. 70+ dittos later and this is the best I have to show for it. I'm not even trying for something absurd like perfect across the board, I just want really good stats in everything. Which shouldn't be THAT hard given two IVs are guaranteed perfect, but no. Unless I'm misunderstanding something, the odds of getting something with 25+ IVs in everything, even including two locked stats, is like .14% Which is like 1 in 700 I think. Each time. So still completely loving impossible, just not lottery impossible. County fair raffle impossible. Plus with the new 5 inheritance thing you can breed it with a friend safari catch and have a guaranteed 5 31s. It's a bit more work per dude you want to breed, but it means you are only rolling a single stat, which is so absurdly great compared to what it was before.

So the Battle Facility in Not-Paris continues the trend of being completely bullshit with Pokemon carrying Weakness Clauses (sharply raise Attack and Special Attack) and now I'm fighting a team composed of Heatran and Cresselia

You'd have to catch a mon with the right nature in the friend safari though, which would be really tedious given how many natures there are. It would also have to have the IVs not covered by the ditto, so the odds are even lower. I thought maybe I would get lucky and just be able to use one ditto but that doesn't look to be the case. I think I'm just going to say gently caress it and use that ditto for breeding, I'm not getting anything better and my luck never improves. At least I have a ditto for every nature now?

My Blaziken has maximum speed EVs and its nature doesn't hinder it, it wasn't paralyzed the Bibarel used Surf, it was not scarfed because it used a different attack after KOing Blaziken, and it didn't have Moody. I spent ten minutes frantically searching for how it could have possibly done that and turned up nothing.

Probably one of the most rage inducing items used by Battle <location> trainers, in the same bull-poo poo league as OHKO moves and all legendary teams.

If that's the case a plus speed natured Bibarel would outspeed if Unaware now ignores speed boosts. That's all I can come up with.

Alcatrash posted:Why is the game sync server always busy? This is a few pages back, but I got your answer. It seems like there's a problem if you try to Game Sync more than once. But if you save and quit and come back into the game, you can do a second Game Sync that way. It's bizarre and not really worth setting it up to autosync.

Protean Froakie wants either +SpA or +Speed, with no penalty to the other. Probably +Speed is better. I'm breeding Hasty protean Froakies, personally.

RoboCicero posted:It took me way too long to realize that I could swap any two tiles with each other instead of just the tile immediately adjacent to it. Also, you are seriously a puzzle wizard. 7 seconds? I don't know for sure on the higher difficulties, but at least on Easy, the pieces get arranged so you only need to swap each piece once to get them in place. So at the start, you can find the piece that needs to go in the top left corner, then swap it for the one actually IN the top left corner, and both pieces will be in their correct spots. Once you realize this and that the border of the puzzle is always the same color pattern, you can get your time down pretty easily. This is also probably the fastest way to get Poke Puffs.

Missing a 50% stat boost solely because Gamefreaks don't realize their cute designs are better than their 8 year old power fantasy nonsense. Fighting isn't exactly great defensively, so Quilladin might be better off than some. Probably missing a huge amount of moves though.

I have a three-31s Ditto and on my first try with the Breloom I was given I got one with four perfect IVs! ...the imperfect IVs are Attack and Speed.  Still, with just a tiny bit more work to get a female with appropriate IVs we'll be in business cranking out ubermensch captureshrooms like it ain't even a thing.
