Is this a bad spot to chain fish? Up to about 130 now

Going about 10 fishes every 3 minutes

edit: chain broken after 151, no shiny

Where are you fishing at? i wanna try my hand at that spot too haha
 
Ask GF, not me. :P

I heard that it's because turn order is determined before mega activation.

This is a mechanic that really needs to change. It pissed me off every time I cured slow start via prankster worry seed, yet it was still the last pokemon to actually do anything.

If they changed it so that slot order is determined on the fly, it would be a huge buff to my team.
 
yaaaaaaaaaay

Pretty happy with this team overall, except for when I was fighting
Wikstrom, since my pokemon don't do well against steel.
That was kind of a struggle, but the rest were easy.
 
Good games. I'm guessing you have Assault vest on Goodra? I'm surprised those meteors didn't kill ;_;. Yeah, Pikachu and Mega Mawile definitely threw me off lol. Gonna rethink some stuff for my party.
Yeah, even a Critical Hit still left him alive.
What kind of build are you using for your Goodra?
252 Sp.Atk/252 HP/4 Def
Draco Meteor, Muddy Water, Flamethrower, Sludge Bomb
Assault Vest

Can take a fully powered Draco Meteor from another Goodra.
 
Wtf.

In a friend Safari. My main is Abra with synchronize, enemy is a Wobbuffet. I can't escape, can't switch pokemon and both of is have no offensive moves. Do I have no choice but to soft reset? I haven't saved for ages.

Fight until you got no PP left. Abra will strugle and eventually win or die.
 
I think if it were a 1 vs 1 between Busaiku's Goodra vs Nub's Goodra, Busaiku's will win, but I think Nub's will be better at handling other Pokemon than compared to Busaiku's since it is more mixed.

Should put the last 4 EVs towards Speed because no one with the right mind would bother to fully EV train a Goodra's Speed.

What is this Prankster thing I'm seeing thrown around? Is it an ability or a move? Or a role of a pokemon in a team? Still learning pokemon terminology lol

It's an ability. Gives priority to status moves.

Priority means the move will go first regardless of speed. But there are moves that have a higher priority than others.
 
I caught a shiny imposter Ditto several days ago. I know it sounds like it could be the best shiny pokemon you could possibly get, but it's actually the worst because it transforms into a regular version of the opposing pokemon as soon as it enters battle. So the shiny Ditto only gets about two seconds of facetime.


Here's the piece of shit I caught:

OMG, my favorite shiny Pokémon!! :O

Also, I guess this means you can use the Poké Radar in the Friend Safari? I haven't messed around with the Poké Radar much, but when I tried using it in the Friend Safari it wouldn't let me...

And that is exactly why you would fully do so because the others aren't doing it, ergo you will win in a head to head.
Bleh my team isn't good at doubles with this moveset.
You need at least 4 moves that can hit both opponents. Good ones include the ever-classic SlideQuake combo, the new Dazzling Gleam, Surf, Sludge Wave if you get it, and Heat Wave.

Team on my first run through the E4, it was a breeze.

Will probably end up replacing all of the bottom row before I do some srs battel. E4 and Champion were pushovers.
 
Does the pokemon with synchronize have to be alive for it to work? This Abra/Wobbuffet nonsense is getting ridiculous.

Nope, it will work even if it faints.

And that is exactly why you would fully do so because the others aren't doing it, ergo you will win in a head to head.

Well it should be a split if one is going to EV train Speed since it will be giving something else up that will give a better advantage to another Goodra.

not really, running an extra 4 EVs is trivial?
on a side note, with level 50 being the standard in Nintendo formats, it's more like 8 EVs=1 point in a stat after the first four (depending on your IV); however, 252 EVs is still max for anything with 31 IVs (or any odd number)
 
Never posted my first E4 team from 10/22

Diantha gave me a major run for my money, for obvious reasons. I literally took out 5 of her pokemon with Tyrantrum alone, then... well you know what happens. Thank you based Drifblim.
