How is everyone EV training? From what it looks like, the easiest way is to send them to school for a stat for a whole day with the relevant power item. That should max out that stat after 24 hours, right? I guess it is theoretically less work that grinding wild pokes for 20 minutes in US/UM per trainee.

Farming the championship for fashion ball is loving terrible made only slightly less terrible after hyper training a Dracovish that can now 1 shot basically everything you can encounter.

Why is Alcremie relatively high? I wanted to use it but it seemed so mediocre with its movepool.

CubeTheory posted:

I feel ya, I've been desperately farming it for the Flame Orb with no luck. If you get an extra let me know and I'll trade you a beast ball or something for it, assuming you can still do that.

So what’s the ideal nature for Dracovish? Is it Jolly? Or do people go Adamant to just focus on the tank busting?

I want to change the ball that my female that has a hidden ability is in. I am trying to wrap my brain around what bullshit breeding I will need to go through to accomplish this. Is this possible or am I hosed?

Rudoku posted:

Catch a Male of the same species in the ball you want. If it's one gender only you're hosed.

Mesadoram posted:

Its Farfetched. I thought the ball is only passed down via female?

Bongo Bill posted:

If the species of both parents are the same, then the child can inherit either ball. Otherwise, the ball is determined by the parent that determines the species, which will be either the mother or the one that's not Ditto.

All the weather in the Wild Area today is snow for me. That seems... Strange.

Also, the little blurb in the menu is gone, along with the + map shortcut. And I'm pretty sure the available raids haven't reset since I last played yesterday, I only see two or three red towers, and that's how many I had left last night. The berries, item sparkles, and empty glowing red dens did reset though, so I could be wrong there.

I think I read somewhere that the first of each month locks the entire wild area to a single weather for the day.

As for raids, I frequently start the day with only three but get the normal amount to pop after I clear those three.

History Comes Inside! posted:

So does hyper training retroactively make their stats as good as if you'd got their EVs in before levelling them or ???

I raised a jolly moxie Gyarados to 100 with exp candy after stuffing a bunch of vitamins into it and it pretty much just solos anyone who pops up on random linked battles, which is all I ever really wanted out of pvp.

Edit: google says it just modifies the IV, so I guess I still want to hatch a level 1, stuff it full of vitamins and level it and THEN hyper train to fix the bad IVs?
