Picked up OR recently, and what hidden functions does the DexNav have? I noticed that Pokemon I search for can have egg moves and a hidden ability for one. (Hello Quick Feet Bullet Seed Shroomish. ) What does potential mean?

Man I wish I'd found a Shroomish with Bullet Seed, the first physical grass move Breloom gets is Seed Bomb at level 44. It's ridiculous.

Legendaries all have 3 guaranteed perfect IVs and a set move list so I don't know what it could tell you that you don't already know.

Glad to see they're getting use. I'm thinking of making a couple more but had trouble deciding which three/six moves would be most useful. Thoughts? Soak, Sticky Web and Geomancy are high on my list already. Also if anyone can get me a Smeargle with Hyperspace Fury I'd be enormously grateful.

Is there a somewhere that will tell me what in pokemon y, and possibly at what level, will evolve WITHOUT pictures? I've never played any pokemon and I much prefer the idea of my team changing as I play  Keep getting trade request but pretty sure people just want to show me they're level 100 whoever lol

Thank you I'm I a team pretty much strictly on looks and a touch of different elements for my first time ever playing Bonus points collecting bad rear end creatures that evolve 3 time Don't even want to admit how long I've been farming to get the female honey comb pokemon just because it's rare to get I'm still in zone Like 5 out leveling things by 6 plus levels. I capture new ones and change them in just so I don't get past 20 already when everything else is like 8 to 10

Try and find a male with Cute Charm. If you have a Pokemon with Cute Charm at the front of your party, you'll increase the odds of encountering Pokemon of the opposite gender. It even works if the Poke is fainted!

I'm making a super single team.

PSWII60 posted:I'm having difficulty thinking of something that Brick Break would OHKO that Earthquake or one of the other moves would not, and all I can think of is stuff with Air Ballon. So Yes. Ferrothorn is the big one. Even just a 252/0 Ferrothorn is 4HKOed by Earthquake and 2HKOed by Brick Break. Max defense Ferrothorn with Leftovers isn't even 5HKOed by Earthquake. Ferrothorn actually completely walls this team so something to deal with it is a good idea. Hammer Arm is an alternative to always 2HKO (more defensive sets are 3HKOed by Brick Break) but the imperfect accuracy and speed drop can be a problem in the Maison.

Thankfully putting your 3DS to sleep doesn't break the chain so you can just do 50 chains here or there while you're waiting on something. If you run out of PP just teach one of your mans a new move with a TM. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DoahiJMkO4A Arrgytehpirate posted:I have almost beaten the game and I've decided that the first Pokemon I want to breed is the following Bisharp. You'll want to run 252 Atk, 252 Speed to outrun bulkier pokemon with base speeds in the 80s like rotom and cresselia. If you're playing doubles, life orb can be useful for extra damage, but focus sash is a bit better since it will usually mean you get a whole 'nother turn to sucker punch something if you get hit with a supereffective or strong neutral attack. If this is for singles, then I guess use the life orb, but you definitely want 252 speed regardless of format. Also if you're playing at level 50 (since this is on a cart after all) you generally want to EV things in increments of 8, starting with 4, ie. 4, 12, 20, 28, 36, 44 due to how stats are the stats are rounded. quote:In order to get that I need to do the following; Pretty much, assuming you're using a 6IV ditto. If this is for maison, I would go with iron head over meteor mash since iron head has perfect accuracy, a chance to flinch, and only 10 less power. Also I'd use ice punch over thunderpunch, since ice/ground has excellent neutral coverage. Pomplamoose fucked around with this message at 06:35 on Jan 6, 2015 |

Sash is just super weak and makes it a lot harder to pick off weakened fast things like Kangaskhan or Garchomp or what have you. Unfortunately a lot of better players will specifically EV to survive attacks from Life Orb Bisharp on things like Cresselia, Togekiss and Aromatisse but plenty of bad players will just run bad 252/252 sets.

If anyone is looking for an answer to this, Pokemon is this best I've found it has the reddit maps built in, it has all the typing stuff and locations for EV-hunting hordes. Only thing it's missing really is an IV calculator and I can do that in my head by now.

Would any kind goons be willing to add my latest Smeargle Base and playtest it for me tomorrow? The first two have Soak and Sticky Web, which will work fine; the third has Memento, and I'm not too sure on the finer details of how you Sketch a suicide move. (Getting it on him in the first place was very contrived, hence my desire to simplify it with my Base). Does Mr Memento: Use the move succesfully, thus become Sketch-proof on account of being dead? Use the move, which fails, allowing it to be Sketched (like Blisseys with Healing Wish?) Something else? Thanks goons.

So... how do Secret Bases really work? I'm at the Blissey Base, and the first time I was there I talked to the person in it and instead of choosing that I wanted to Battle, I chose to add it to my favorites. That happened, the trainer avatar inside disappeared, and now there's nothing. Do I need to wait a full 24 hours or something?

I was all set up to do that with the blissey bases, and then I ended up training a batch of 18 pokemon up to lv. 50 with less than one full rotation of the meadow/shore. I can't see myself ever needing to train more than 18 pokemon in a single day.

Probopass gets Wide Guard from the move relearner on OR/AS if you have that and want to avoid the stupidly long chain it took before.

I was running a DD set before Mega Mence was banned in Smogon Doubles. Salamence @ Salamencite Ability: Intimidate Happiness: 0 EVs: 140 HP / 252 Atk / 20 SpD / 96 Spe Adamant Nature - Frustration - Aqua Tail - Substitute - Dragon Dance 96 Speed beats neutral base 100s before boosting and everything relevant after a DD and the defensive EVs guarantee surviving a Shuca Heatran HP Ice. I prefer Aqua Tail over Earthquake for hitting Tyranitar and Shuca Heatran harder though you'll want something that can deal with Mawile, Metagross and Aegislash (I used Scarf Landorus-T.) I never really missed protect much. I think DD is by far the best Salamence set but I can see 3 Attacks + Sub or maybe 3 attacks + Protect as decent enough sets. Fully special Salamence is poo poo, though.
