What are perfect IVs?

To my understanding, IVs are initial values when a Pokemon hatches. Having them add up to 31 is optimal and means they'll scale up best as the Pokemon levels up. Is this right?

How can we know what a Pokemon's IVs are when caught above level 1?

Me no understand.

Not add up. Max IV for each stat is 31. Discretely.

 

[ColossalLazy]

Thanks Spiffy!

 

[Niraj]

Mewtwo is the only challenging legendary to catch. After failing 40 Pokeballs I got him with a Paralyze+1HP.

Damn really? I've been resetting on mine and it usually only takes 1-3 for me.

Just got another adamant with 21-22/31/31/22-23/13-14/31 Might not be too bad for Mega Mewtwo X (I'm on Y though )?

 

[gazele]

Are Chatot literally impossible to catch? I'm getting them down to a sliver of health and they still break free right away.

I eventually caught one, it was weirdly difficult, have you tried putting it to sleep, paralyzing it, etc.?

 

[StayDead]

I have around half a box of Honedges. It didn't take that long in comparison to other people.

*sobs uncontrollably*

I have 13 boxes of eevees. Gotta keep on fighting though. I'll get one eventually.

Either use an IV Calculator or take them to the IV Judge at Postgame City and he will tell you in words.
Can't be beat= 31 IVs in that stat

Aside from the box legendaries, just about all legendaries have the same catch rate. 3. The lowest it can go.

 

[Elija2]

I caught one. Don't remember too much difficulty

I eventually caught one, it was weirdly difficult, have you tried putting it to sleep, paralyzing it, etc.?

Finally managed to catch one. All is well.

I've got a box full and I'm after a timid of ANY KIND.

Are you willing to do an Eevee for an Eevee?

 

[Coldnoodle]

How many did you have to hatch? I've been trying to breed eevees for 15-18 hours, I have over 420 of them and still no luck D:

...I would like three please.

 

[Shoyz]

Can't imagine Xerneas and Yveltal have low capture rates, caught them both within 3 Pokeballs without status ailments.

 

[Prisoner]

Does tipping actually do anything? I've been leaving the minimum tip (100) wherever possible.

 

[Roto13]

Anyone want to trade their non-North American Ditto for my North American Ditto?

 

[GiantEnemyGoomba]

Is there another unlockable boy haircut aside from the medium perm?

 

[Charlie0108]

I was wondering why so many people were adding me for Friend Safari, apparently I have Vulpix! Need some people with Frogadier, Quilladin, Braixen and Wartortle though

 

[ramyeon]

So as far as getting a pokemon with 5 31 IVs... What I want to be doing is catching two from the Safari with IVs I want, breeding those with the destiny knot until I can transfer all 4 over to one baby, then breed that with one which has another until I can finally get the combination right is that correct?

Anyone able to share that friend Safari google doc again?

 

[StayDead]

I'll be trading away my modest eevees, all XXX amount of them when I finally get a shiny. I really can't afford to stop breeding. I hate myself.

 

[GrandHarrier]

Wut. After Gym 5 you'll pretty much encounter Haunter in every cave and on many routes (swamp before Gym 6, for example).

Also, GTS.

Oh. I hadn't encountered it and Bulbapedia said it wasn't in the game.

Everything is a lie.

If you breed with destiny knot 5 are taken from 1 parent and the 6th is random. If you get 2 pokemon with good IVs in two different stats you may have a better time breeding them normally to get 4 desired IVs then starting up the destiny knot.

There is a 5th that I have seen on a few PSS icons. I've yet to become stylish enough to get it though .

I was under the impression it was 5 from both parents from what people in this thread were saying.

 

[?oe?oe]

What are a few really good flying types? I said I would never train Fletchling and 82 levels later... I never like him.

 

[AmICoolYet]

I was under the impression it was 5 from both parents from what people in this thread were saying.

The way I read it was that it took 5 from either parent, 50/50 chance. If that's how it works then that's great.

 

[Niraj]

Here you go man. Let me know if that doesn't work for whatever reason.

 

[Roto13]

Because they're on the box and part of the main story. Their catch rates are probably closer to 40.

even though I haven't caught any of them yet.

Use Serebii's XY pokedex instead.

Right, brainfart. Thought of those as 'cover' legends.

 

[Star Falcon]

Pure flying? The only ones i'd possibly ever use would be Braviary or Staraptor.

Though Talonflame ability is useful for hatching eggs

 

[StayDead]

I know that feel bro.

I think me and you should start a support group.

 

[Berordn]

Oh good, Global Link is finally working somewhat normally.

I used a lot more Gen VI than I was expecting to. Noviern's quite the beast.

 

[AmICoolYet]

Does anyone have a bold ditto or somethign with synchronize? Breeding these Abras is not working out for me...

 

[?oe?oe]

I'll keep him around for eggs

 

[Chie Satonaka]

Turning on the Exp Share changed my life.

I am now back to curbstomping my opponents as I have for the past 13 years.

I'm overleveled.

 

[ramyeon]

Checked some Gamefreak threads and yeah it seems to take 5 from either parents so it could be 3 from dad 2 from mum or whatever.

Here you go man. Let me know if that doesn't work for whatever reason.

Thanks! One on there with a Dragonair, I'll have to add them

Oh wait, I have Ninetales, and I'm the only one on the whole speadsheet who has it, no wonder my inbox has exploded recently.

Masuda has Failed Us.

Hatchers Annonymous.

 

[Jachaos]

So I caught my first Ditto, with 26 HP 21 Atk 2 Def 26 Sp.Atk 31 Sp.Def and 18Spd. Is that any good ?

Also, can anyone add me to tell me what my Friend Safari has in it ? Thanks !

 

[Roto13]

Woo, got mah Japanese Ditto. Thanks, random person on the GTS.

How do you pull that up?
I'm not seeing it anywhere on my Global Link page.
