Thanks Panzon!

Code is DWRG-WWWW-WWW2-24W8. Gotta say I wanna play a match like that again soon.

Where can I find codes for online battles and/or watch them?

 

[QuiteWhittle]

I just got a Zoroark wonder trwded to me with the illusion ability. Is this rare?

It's rare but catchable on route 20.

 

[Niraj]

Thanks Panzon!

VS Recorder. If you're online you'll have to option to search for a video with the code.

Illusion is its standard ability, but as mentioned it's catchable later in the game.

Ah, thanks

 

[AJSousuke]

Caught Yveltal with one quick ball at max HP. Yeah, they seem easier than normal.

wow, it's uber easy then.

i still need to catch articuno, i hope it's easy

 

[Panzon]

Thanks Panzon!

Enjoy and thank you

It is raining in 3 of the four hotspots I need for EV training and my backup-backup EV zone gets Nidoran 3/4ths of the time instead of the hordes that give me speed IVs that I need

I can't believe I'm saying this but fuck random weather.

 

[Delio]

I'm having such a hard time getting extra Leftovers. All the casual players I know arent giving it up :/

Fight zubat hordes in the Connecting Cave, they give Speed IVs.

 

[Fury Sense]

Very very close match between macklelol and me. His weakness policy multiscale D-nite nearly swept my whole team.

Code is DWRG-WWWW-WWW2-24W8. Gotta say I wanna play a match like that again soon.

Also dang seriously Weakness policy is dang broken. Either you have a way to pop Multiscale through rocks or faster Volturn or you get DD swept by +3 attack and +1 speed. If he had extremespeed at that time I'd have lost bad.

That was pretty fun to watch

 

[Otakumegane]

Yo, that was one great game. I really need an Extremespeed Dragonite ;_;

EDIT: I don't think I used my Dragonite much in this game, though. I know I did sweep you with it earlier.

I went though great lengths to make sure that at least I could get Togekiss to survive at least 1 Punch lol. Honestly I don't think Dazzle gleam would have killed you there either so I went for the Flamethrower to at least try and burn.

You could have stayed in and likely swept.

It just started raining where I'm training Attack... Fuck.

Congrats!

Thanks! Took me a little under an hour, but I am pleased.

 

[Panzon]

My togepi eggs are hatching faster than Im receiving them. Is this normal with togepi?

Edit: Im receiving them quite fast by the way. 2 cycles down each end of the road

 

[njean777]

I have only ran into mine once since post game, how often do you run into them?

 

[Caladrius]

Fight zubat hordes in the Connecting Cave, they give Speed IVs.

That seems to be working. Thanks.

It just started raining where I'm training Attack... Fuck.

There's trevenant hordes in the forest South of Snowbelle City. Watch out for Sudowoodo that show up in some of them though.

 

[Beats]

Good match Antiwhippy. I probably should have kept Azumarill in. I might have survived that Ice shard >_<.

Thanks. Yeah, I pretty much threw in weavile because she's the only one with a priority move that can beat aqua jet, and even then I'm not sure if I could kill it.

GGs definitely. That klefki opening is a lot more effective than I expected.

 

[Deified Data]

Accidentally traded away my only Everstone. Is there a way to get another one or am I screwed?

 

[Ultimadrago]

Reflection Cave, farm them off wild Roggenrola with Thief.

 

[spindashing]

Ah, fuck. How can you tell when you've maxed an EV?

 

[Otakumegane]

We need more battle videos up. Did any of ya'll save them lol?

I do wonder why more people aren't putting up vids of their epic wins or losses.

 

[Tan]

Ah, fuck. How can you tell when you've maxed an EV?

When you can do the special super training.

 

[Aytrial]

Ah, fuck. How can you tell when you've maxed an EV?

Try to use a training bag on it or do the basic training of that specific stat if you don't have any. It'll say that the Pokemon can't raise that stat any higher.

 

[Antiwhippy]

I saved it, but I don't know if it's rude or not to post it without the other's approval.

 

[spindashing]

Ah, thanks guys.

I lost count a while back, somehow.

 

[Beats]

Oh, I save all of mine. I just wasn't sure how to access them. I'll try and get it.

Here's the battle I was talking about from the other day

2N8W-WWWW-WWW2-26HR

We discussed for hours about it afterwards. lol

 

[Antiwhippy]

Well if you don't mind then the code for our match is JS5W-WWWW-WWW2-26FY

 

[CrimsonN0]

I know EV training maxed out at 252 in Super Training, but did they change it for normal EV training in the wild.

 

[macklelol]

Yes, EV training from battling wild Pokemon caps at 252 now, as well.

 

[Forkball]

I like how none of my Poke friends are online. HAVE YOU TOSSED IT ASIDE SO QUICKLY?

 

[toastyToast]

How should I EV train Mawile? The thing is slow as shit so I'm not gonna bother with Speed. I'm thinking Attack and Special Defense, or should I do Attack and HP?

 

[Caladrius]

HP. Mega Mawile has good enough defenses aside from that.

Nice match. Dat mystical fire spam.

 

[DarkKyo]

So I have a question... Everyone raves about IV breeding and EV training etc etc.. Is it really that important? Like if everyone else in a tournament has "perfect pokemon" do I not have a chance if I just EV train a Pokemon I caught in the wild who doesnt have perfect IV stats? How much of a game changer is perfect breeding?

 

[Antiwhippy]

SubBelly drum azumarill is hilarious.

 

[Delio]

Same here man. Everyone has just tossed everything aside.

 

[Unbounded]

Is there a battle thread on GAF?

I was looking for one, but can't find one. Do we just do matchups in here, or what?

 

[Beats]

Well if you don't mind then the code for our match is JS5W-WWWW-WWW2-26FY

Yeah, it's alright. : p

Ah, that stealth rock combined with those bad switches. I should get a Rapid Spin/Defog user, but man there aren't a lot of choices for rapid spin.

 

[Keyouta]

So what do you guys think of Project Pokemon and them being able to spoof the GTS and figuring out the Pokemon data formats?

Trying to catch a Magic Guard Duosion in FS... and I keep getting the Hidden Ability. Or Overcoat. Game is just trolling at this point.

If you hit a 4x weakness it doesn't really matter what they did to prepare beforehand.

IV breeding adds 31 points at level 100 which is on top of like 200-300. It's pretty marginal but you take what you can get.

I never understood why you lead with Volcarona. But dang Klefki Swagger+Foul Play is something I never thought to visit.

Personally thinking about using a Dual Screen Taunt lead in my 2nd team.

This is why we can't have nice things.

 

[Ultimadrago]

Nice match. Dat mystical fire spam.

I could not turn back, so I had to lower that Spec. Attack! I wish I used Earthquake as Gyarados though. I don't know why I didn't.

 

[decaf]

Finally got perfect Timid male and female Abras; both in Premier Balls.

I think I'm the only person in the world who cares about hatching locations, but can anyone think of a good place to hatch them on the map? I'm thinking of Chamber of Emptiness... is there anywhere more "psychic" sounding?

Will pass on one of my spares if anyone can think of something better!

 

[SaintMadeOfPlaster]

So I've recently beat the game and I'm interested in getting started with building a competitive team.

Anyone have any good sources/articles for getting started? I know a lot of the basics such as natures and EV training, but that's not nearly enough.

 

[Berordn]

This is why we can't have nice things.

It was bound to happen eventually. Hopefully the game's GTS implementation is a bit more secure this time around so it isn't as easy to get them in-game.
