    Is the oval charm for just Kalos or the entirety of the dex? If just Kalos do you have an articuno I could get the dex entry from? Last thing I need.

    Took me (quite) a while, but managed to catch a SpA IV Haunter. Love that a long time to even see the first one in the wild (Victory Road cave), but after that one they appeared in force. Now the search continues...

    Still mad about my brother's perfect IV Xerneas. Literally woke up in a cold-sweat thinking about it.

    he tells me he wasn't even trying to get a good one. just took the first one he tripped across.

    this is how the shit with the brother's in the bible started isn't it?

    Eh. Shaky.

    Well yeah, he does need rapid spin / defog support with his Stealth Rock weakness. Being immune to spikes is helpful, though.

    I find that with a 252 Def / 248+ SpD / 8 Spd spread, he can take a super-effective hit from most threats even with Stealth Rock on the field, and can survive anything but a few choice band/specs users (e.g. Crawdaunt) when at full health.

    Like most Weakness Policy users, he does best when going up against something that tries to hit him with a non-STAB super effective hit. Most fighting types tend to carry one, so he's fun to switch in on those guys.

    Anyone have good Poke for a Sunny Day team? I already have: Charizard, Ninetails, Arcanine, Infernape, Talonflame, Houndoom and Venasaur done, I really need some variety in my types. Looking for grass types, anyone that can benefit from Sunny Day or use Solarbeam. So far Rock, Dragon and Fairy types have been doing a number on me...

    After I get out of this Battle Maison ill try and compile a quick list of what Ive bred and can trade.

    Do you have any of these? I was also thinking of adding a Breloom.

    Part of me would be greatly grateful, the other would enjoy actually producing such a thing by myself. At least have a Poké to be proud of, you know?

    Let's see if I'm stubborn enough for that. :P

    (Thanks for the offer. Let's hope that I don't need it)

    Why is it so hard to IV train Dratini's? I tried several batches, but I'm still at the 3 I started with. Everyone is like decent, or superior, but only has one or two P IV's.

    I counted the last match: the chump I was playing against scored three criticals, and I missed three times with a 85-90% accuracy moves

    siiiiigh

    I got frozen in the match before it AND crit twice

    siiiiiiiiiiigh

    I need to stop playing 3v3 online before my 3DS meets an untimely end. The luck factor (or maybe it's just my abysmal luck) makes it feel so swingy and unfair. Blergh.

    So my best pokemon (for playing the game, of course, I have no intention of ever battling any other player) is a level 75 Farfetched. With Fly. Which I super trained without really knowing what stats I should invest in.
    I beat the bad guys and got the Legendary, and will know proceed with the town hopping and getting the 8th badge.

    What were they using? With some Pokemon it's possible to get 100% crit now since they changed the crit mechanics in Gen6.

    So, I just got absolutely destroyed by a japanese guy using mega gyarados. One dragon dance let him sweep my whole team. Time to go find a 5IV magikarp, I think.

    I hardly ever have a problem with Mega Gyarados thanks to Escavalier. He can usually withstand at least one attack, and Megahorn = OHKO (even without max Attack EV investment).

    BTW, are there any Pokemon that learn Leech Seed but aren't grass-type? I'd like to give Escavalier Leech Seed and Leftovers support, but I don't want two Pokemon with weakness to fire.

    Not a Super Luck Pokemon, and not something with a Scope Lens. Just dumb luck, every time. It's enough to make me wonder if there isn't some way some of these guys are cheating (HAX!!!!) because things with extremely low odds seem to happen to me fairly regularly, and with alarming frequency.

    Never to my benefit, though! I don't think I have ever paralyzed anything with Thunderbolt or frozen anything with Ice Fang, and I only crit when a KO is a foregone conclusion. Feh.

    Edit: I mean, if you think about the average 3v3 game having about 6-10 turns and each move having around a 10% chance of doing multiple things (missing, crit'ing, freezing, paralyzing, burning) then the chance of something haxy happening in any given match is actually fairly high. But it certainly never seems to help ME, that's for sure.

    Got one bred, though I am willing to concede to Buster since I responded later. I know Litejedi has breloom in friend safari and has posted rather recently in here. Phantump seems pretty common in safari but none on my list are online. Also have two whismurs from people who I don't think play pokemon....

    I want too but id have to take out Talonflame or Charizard and Tailwind has become pretty useful.

  • CSStheGr8CSStheGr8 Registered User regular
    Does venomoth have the stats to be used in competitive battles? Can learn solar beam, poison stab against fairies and quiver dance is usually thought highly of (I think.) I really have no idea what the metagame is around the competitive scene.
