    Still need it. You wanted piplup, right?

    Here's the deal; I've been breeding them, so you can gave a modest one with surf and hydro pump now, or a modest one with agility and I THINK ice beam in a couple of minutes.

    The second one would be preferable. It'll take me 10 minutes to get my shit together and be ready either way.

    Nah, I'll go with the other one, thanks. I should be on in just one minute.

    I always saw Breloom as a Kangaroo, although I couldn't say why...

    Today I figured I might as well try and get some BP for the move tutors so me and a friend took on the battle tower, we only got 3 rounds of 7 in before we failed but we got quite a lot of BP for it; 8 on the first round then 9 then 11 I think. So that was pretty cool.

    Could someone help me move 6 of my pokemon from diamond to heart gold in a little while? In payment I can offer a combination of bulbasaur, chimchar, treeko, mudkip, cyndaquil, Jolly dragon dance larvitar, Beldum, Eevee and Spiritomb if you need any of them, but I'd need to breed most of them.

    I'll help you with that, and I'll take a Chimchar and Treecko, if you don't mind.

    As for anyone else here, I can trade off an Adamant Larvitar, Adamant Machop, Cyndaquil or Chikorita. I'm mostly looking for starter Pokemon that aren't Chikorita or Cyndaquil.

    Ok, well I'm going to have to give you six pokemon off heart goldin exchange for my six off diamond, so I can give you chimchar and treeko, and I'm also planning to throw in Mudkip, bulbasaur, eevee and beldum, since those are the pokemon I have bred and now just have to hatch, if that's ok with you?

    Just to be clear, you're trading me six Pokemon from your HG copy, then I'm trading them to your Diamond copy, which will end with me having the six you traded in from Diamond?

    I'd love one. Timid would be first choice, but a Modest one would work too. Sorry I didn't reply last night - got stuck in WiFi hell trying to move over some Pearl pokes to my SS game.

    The only one of those that I even have at this point is a Duskull, but I've got a couple of them so I can definitely send one over.

    I've never done an IV battle in my life (haven't even done a regular battle online, actually). I just started swapping mons via wifi a couple days ago. If it can be done quickly and simply I'm happy to do it. If it would be too much of a hassle to show me how, I'll just take my chances.

    Basically we start a lvl 100 battle

    Then you wait about 5 minutes whilst I calculate all the Eevees' IVs

    Then we both run

    And that's it
