    When should I go to the desert resort? I just got to nimbasa city, but I can only get a few floors down in relic castle before I have to leave and heal, and I don't want to waste all my money on potions.

    Ninja Edit - you guys are too quick. All my garbage is still up for grabs, I'll need to restock on happiny - people love them xD

    I don't have anything super cool in return since I've barely dabbled in breeding, a few awful zoruas/oshawatts ... I do have an army of hatred filled magikarps oh and a supply of white forest stuff like happiny.... if you're into that kind of thing I'm not here to judge.

    Send me a PM if ya can
    I forgot about the weirdness in Nintendo Wi-Fi...we couldn't connect - we'd time out when trying to trade. (I jumped out, turned on C-Gear...I'm guessing you had your C-Gear turned on when you went in.)

    Resolved! :)

    Maybe the next time this topic starts, there is something included in the FAQ:

    I'm having problems trading in the Wi-Fi room, where the conversations stall out - how can I fix this?
    Both people need to have C-Gear on or off - one person needs to exit Wi-Fi, toggle their C-Gear, then re-enter.

    Wait, really? Ugh. That probably explains why 75% of my wifi trades work perfectly, but there's that 25% that always lock up or time out after minutes and minutes of waiting.

    Don't worry about it. You'll be forced to by the story eventually. Unless you really want a Yamask/Cofagrigus.

    You get more as they fill up. Or just put one in every box, exit and re-enter.

    Shall I settle for this Volcarona?

    HP: 31
    Att: 31
    Def: 22
    SpA: 31
    SpD: 31
    Speed: 24

    100 base speed isn't that fast. Was really hoping for a 31 in speed. But man, they take so long to hatch.

    Incidentally, I have 4 or 5 Larvesta with 31s in SPA and random 1-2 others that I can give away. Only a couple are modest but they're all good power item breeding stock.

    I think someone was being an asshole when giving pokémon dream world abilities. Kingler doesn't have any awesome STAB moves to abuse Sheer Force with.

    From what I saw, Crabhammer is not affected by Sheer Force, but maybe the site was using incomplete data. And it also looks like Kingler cannot learn Waterfall.

    Yes, Crawdaunt looks pretty amazing.

    Dream World has been delayed due to the earthquake, so you can't get there yet.

    The middle area is part of Entralink, which requires local wifi, I believe.

    Kingler has rock slide and a bunch of useless special moves that take advantage of sheer force. Crabhammer unfortunately isn't affected.

    In other words, pretty much outclassed by Feraligatr.

    I still carry around the Kingler I raised for Deadliest Catch ... it's better now that I gave it Crabhammer (no point in an all water-type tournament that never happened). Also people generally don't expect me to have gone through the effort to give him Rock Slide, let alone Superpower. He's fun until he breaks.

    I'm not saying Kingler is terrible, just that he's been given one of the best abilities in the game with precious little to utilize it.

    Compare to Crawdaunt, which has plenty of moves to use with Adaptability.

    So let me get this straight, the Electralizer is found out on Route 13 behind a Cut-able tree, but the Magmarizer has to be given to you by the treasure dude who has ~ 20 different items that he gives at random, once a day?

    Pretty pissed that the flutes no longer serve a purpose other than selling for money.

    I understand there are a ton of items they have to fit into the post game, but the fact that they went to the effort to give you an Electralizer on that route but not a Magmarizer is baffling.

    I will fully admit that Magmortar's face is ugly.

    But he has arm cannons (and as we all know, Pokemon with cannons are the best Pokemon) can learn Thunderbolt and has great Special Attack.

    Also, Magmar was a cool Pokemon in Blue and a Magby from my Silver version won me the Baby Cup in Pokemon Stadium 2 almost single-handidly.

    Finally, I had a Magmortar in my (still missing) Diamond version who was a great ally in the Battle Tower.

    Therefore, favourite Pokemon.

    Magmar and Electabuzz are both poop. Like from a butt.

    Flareon and Jolteon always had my preference. So adorable! Second choices are Ninetales and Raichu. Magmar and Electabuzz are like rock bottom.

    Jolteon -is- adorable, but Quilava is better than Flareon, looks-wise. Ninetales is also pretty great. Never liked any of the Pikachu line, though.

    I do like Manectric, though.
