Guess its a good thing Im not hung up on IVs. Lack of a friend with a Ditto Safari is already making it frustrating enough just trying to get one with the right nature from the Village

Guys, just type Battle Maison. It's only two extra letters and we don't have to explain what it is every few pages
No, never
Battle Noun is an amazing term that works perfectly and can be explained in one sentence
And after going through 30 torturously slow rounds only to lose to some asshole who instantly woke up from sleep and had their focus band proc 5 times in a row you don't really want to call that hellhole by the proper name
Except there are THREE places in the game that fit Battle Noun
And all it does is confuse new players more
Pokemon doesn't really need more insular jargon
Battle Noun is the simplest and least insular jargon ever
And the Chateau and Institute are completely different and pointless respectively
I believe the larger-sized your pumpkaboo is the more attack/health it has at the cost of speed
except that the smallest size also breaks this rule and is slower than regular with more attack/health, but is still weaker than large or huge pumpkaboo
edit: actually riptor's right re: pumpkaboo and what I was talking about was true for gourgeist
"Can" or "should"? Loads of pokemon CAN use it, but it's usually useless. Aurorus and Mega Gardevoir are the only two I can think of that have a reason to use it. Not a GOOD reason, mind you, but it's better than putting it on Aerodactyl if you just wanna be all wawawawawawa.
Same spread, but Crobat is faster because for some reason they gave noivern a nice little 97 in Special attack
Woo dat 123 speed. I mean, Noivern is still wicked fast but its like
Whyyyy
Noivern has a blatantly superior typing to Crobat, and I think a better movepool as well.
I mean, yeah, Hydreigon would be a lot better if he had 122 SpA and 101 speed instead of 125/98, but there's probably a damn good reason why he's specifically not in that speed tier.

I got all of my dittos off the gts. Just look for level 21-30 ones and they should have 2 perfect IV's
A max-size Gourgeist has 85 HP and 122 defense, which is pretty respectable, but its special defense kind of bad at 75 and its typing isn't the best. So it kind of depends on what you plan on switching into. The bigger question is what she's going to do once she's on the field, since her movepool isn't very exciting from what I've seen. Trevenant has way less defense, but has a lot more obvious tools for taking advantage of what moderate bulk it can scrape together what with the life-draining and the abilities that combo well with Rest.
By comparison, Ferrothorn has 74/131/116 (with hazards and very strong physical attacks) and Cofagrigus has 58/145/105 (with Nasty Plot or Pain Split shenanigans). And then there's Aegislash, but that's a whole other story. Actually, now that I think of it, even Eviolite Doublade is effectively 58/225/75 with slightly more attack and generally better offensive and defensive coverage.

Hmm, a lot of good moves are locked behind GenV move tutors huh?
Guess team Fighting needs another re-think.
Although I'm not sure if it's possible to make a fighting team that won't just get swept by priority Acrobatics from Talonflame, there is literally one Fighting type who isn't weak to Flying and its got pretty bad defenses.

I mean, I don't have the game yet, but when I do get it I'll make a Fairy gym.

Really wasn't paying attention and had already pressed yes by the time I figured out what I had done.
My streak wasn't that long, but still annoying.

Half a team ahead of you there.
If I can stop breeding for more Shiny Ralts.
Oh, I think I managed to run into a super sized Pumpkaboo, but I'm not sure. I did catch it.
thank'ee that goomy thing is hidden ability

More hp less speed. When it evolves these numbers increase quite a bit and offer unique roles to all three
Woops
Kinda wish the gym leaders would bring more than two Pokémon or that there was somewhere else to have proper rematches with them.
Sweet Jesus, no one told me
Quick someone tell me who I can put Hyper Beam on
Don't say Dragonite!!!

Noibat
Thank you so much @Huntera
Talonflame is one of my favorite new pokemon
Talonflame and Pyroar
now if only Pyroar was a bit more useful....
I'm really into the idea of a stallbreaker/pivot Noivern.
Infiltrator with Taunt, Tailwind, U-turn, and either draco meteor or boomburst
Taunt and ruin stallers or tailwind and uturn out to set up a slow, bulky sweeper
That's the only way hidden abilities show up for Gen 6 pokemon?
Time to go ram my head into the battle noun.
Apparently you can get hidden abilities from hordes, but you can't find Fletching in hordes.

Look at Noivern as compared to crobat
Noivern Base stats
Hp. 85, Atk. 70, Def. 80, Sp.A. 97, Sp.def. 80. Spd. 123.
crobat´s base stats:
Hp. 85, Atk. 90, Def. 80, Sp.A. 70, Sp.def. 80. Spd. 130.
Same spread, but Crobat is faster because for some reason they gave noivern a nice little 97 in Special attack
Woo dat 123 speed. I mean, Noivern is still wicked fast but its like
Whyyyy
I don't count not wanting to completely invalidate crobat as trolling

even when not needed
Mawile (probably Mega)
Lucario
Scizor
Aegislash
and then some combination of Metagross, Ferrothorn, and Exadrill.
Really don't want to run Klefki because Prankster is dumb and no fun and I don't want to do that to you guys.

Swagger followed by Foul Play is really really fun
bye bronzong and delphox
Looking at its stats, Huge Size and Large Size seem alright for a physical wall
But I mean weak to fire and flying are hard to overcome, I'd assume
