In terms of things like IV and EV, how do people judge the IV of a level 1 Pokemon? I mean I've heard you can't tell exactly till level 30 or so but I've read people talk about perfect IV Pokemon at level 1 unless I'm misreading what people are saying

There's a judge in Kiloude City PokeCenter that runs through all the highest and very lowest IVs of a Pokemon regardless of level. If he says the 5 IVs people want, they usually take it as a win. If you want specifics on every stat that's not the highest, you will likely need a calculator online.

Well, I certainly didn't expect this, lol.

It never gets old, seeing people surprised by that. Happy Day of Birth!

Finally beat the Elite Four! I've never loved a pokemon game as much as this one and I've played every single one of them. Wish they'd edited the art for shinies because shiny Staryu is beautiful and deserves to be seen in all its glory.

Also I fell asleep during the credits lol. Did I miss anything worthwhile?
 
I hate 3v3 with a passion. 1 crit or 1 miss can decide the whole match. And I'm sick of dealing with Garchomp and Blaziken.

btw, how did your Haxorus outspeed Mega Houndoom? He's Timid with max speed EVs(115 base speed). I'm still learning. ;_;

Turn order is set before Mega-Evolution occurs. If a Pokémon's speed changes due to Mega-Evolution, it will still not affect turn order that turn.
 
What's a good EV spread for Volcarona?
It's been pretty easy for me lately to get perfect Pokemon for some reason. All in Luxury balls of course. :)
I guess my shiny luck is turning, got my first yesterday (Honedge) and now this just hatched:

Hasty, Protean male Froakie with IVs 31/25/31/31/31/31 ;D

Damn, that's nice. I wanted to get one, but I don't think I'll do the Masuda Method for starters ever again.

Clockwise from the top left, they are Vince, Carnage, Aretha, Danzig, Elton, and Knifey.

Aretha KO'd the champion's Gardevoir, the only Pokemon in the entire League that gave me some serious trouble (and boy did it give me trouble).

Anybody who puts Gallade and Mawile in the same team is alright in my book. (
They should have given you Mawile's megastone pre-E4 >:[
)
 
That's a nice variety of Pokémon you have there. Great job!

When I started playing, I was expecting to take on the League using Greninja, Malamar, and Tyrantrum instead of Dragalge, Gallade, and Aurorus.

Thanks.
Agreed. Mawile was supposed to be the one to take out Gardevoir. Gardevoir one-shot that Mawile with a Thunderbolt.

Go back to the town and then go north. There is an ice cave where something is happening. The pokemon that will help you go through the snow is busy on the cave right now.

Go all the way north in the town. You missed the bridge there.
 
Just bred this Froakie:

Froakie - #656 (Hasty)
Male (♂)
HP: 31
Att: 31
Def: 31
SpA: 31
SpD: 10
Speed: 31

Will that terrible SpD hurt me?
 
Lucky egg + le wow rotation battles for me. Full boosted exp and the low level pokes never have to fight. Unless you are talking about getting to 100. That I'm not sure of how to do quickly.
Wonder trade and redeem pokemiles for rare candies.

It's like being in 5th grade all over again.
 
Having a great time trying to fill up my pokedex post game! I will have them all!

Also: really jonesing for a Staryu...Shoot me a PM if you wouldn't mind throwing one my way!
 
So is Ferrothorn a good tanker/annnoyer for online play?

Caught a few in friend safari with good IVs and natures, thinking about breeding for a good one.

P.S. Just found out I have a bunch of Pokemiles. What is the best thing to buy? Rare candy or Heart Scales?
 
When does the Battle Maison get hard? All these easy battles are pretty tedious.

The beginning modes are super easy and are basically just a tutorial on competitive battle rules/easy way to grind BP. Once you beat 20 consecutive battles you unlock Super versions that are basically the real battle facility.
 
Wtfff. I found an articuno but it fled before my menu even loaded. Dang it

Yeah, You picked Chespin then? Everyone gets one of the Legendary birds depending on their starter choice. You have to meet it once randomly to see it in your pokedex. From here on out, you need to use your pokedex to track where its located. Find it 11 more times and it will go to a cave where you can finally catch it. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Gotcha. Yea I did pick chespin. Thanks for the info!
 
What's a good natuee for togepi? Im thinking timid for the speed boost and its sp attack gets really high when it evolves to togekiss but at the same time I dont know if I should boost up the sp def. Any advice?
 
Ugh, halp.

I'm in the last chapter of the post-game quest, and I can't figure out this stupid
tile floor. I'm going in circles. Is there something I'm missing? Anyone else have this problem? The stupid thing is that I've clearly beaten this before...

EDIT: aaaand never mind. Ugh. Fuck this level.
 
Timid Protean Greninja @Focus Sash. Yay or nay?

It has Ice Beam,Scald,Spikes, Dark Pulse.

I'd swap out Focus Sash for Life Orb, Dark Pulse for Hydro Pump (or Surf), Spikes for U-Turn
hit harder and deal with those pesky contrary users (yeah I'm referring to Serperior once it arrives)
 
I feel like they could have retyped a lot more to fairy then they did. Flying really hurts Vespiquen. That thing is awesome design too.

Yeah, not only is she rare but it has 3 signature moves, all of them good for her. And a Queen bee bug should be on a higher note than some random hornet or butterfly, so the stats could be even better. But you can't tank when you lost half of your life to rock and has a lot of weakness.

Also if I was part of gamefreak I'll give Volcarona some good abilities because jesus, those are mediocre. It's a Moth so it has a chance for cool ones.

Volcarona.
Swarm becomes Compound Eyes
Flame Body becomes Tinted Lens

Hidden Ability: Furcoat

instant beast.
 
I have 3 extra Adamant 31 / 31 / 31 / x / x / 31 Shroomish up for trade.

I am looking for these pokemon with at least 4 perfect IVs:

Protean Froakie (Hasty)
Prankster Klefki (Impish/Bold)
Tyrunt (Adamant)
Noibat (Modest/Timid)
Meditite (Jolly)

I don't know, I actually like Flame Body on Volcarona. With enough defense/hp investment you can almost run bulky set and while it can be really risky to get her in there, Quiver Dance and Roost make her pretty hard to take down all while giving Flame Body a decent chance to kick in.

Tinted Lens would be crazy good on her though, maybe to the point of being broken.
