I just want to remind everyone that I got a beautiful 31/31/31/x/31/31 Adamant Landorus <3

Go to hell.

What's the total number of egg moves learned via breeding now? I forget, but I recall at least 5 (the fifth would need to be Heart scaled).

You can narrow it down to the specific IV using the Battle Institute and Super Training. The Battle Institute auto-levels to 50 so do that and calculate the IVs. If you get 28 - 29 then add in 4 HP EVs through Super Training and check again; if the number increases then congrats, you have 29. Remember to save before starting a Battle Institute run though, so you can just SR after checking IVs instead of going through 5 battles.

Cool beans I'll try that.

But is he shiny?

Just a competitive team

Got two Rayquaza codes. They are actually quite rare here in Germany. Many Müller distributed it already even though the event actually starts today. Glad I got at least two, but its the same OT and ID as the American and Australian one.

 

[StoneFox]

I'm currently SRing the Shiny Rayquaza event and just pulled a Naive 23-24/31/30-31/31/31/31.

Should I keep it? I would have preferred Jolly or Adamant but the IVs are nice.

edit: decided to keep it, I just have to avoid special attacks if I ever use this thing

That's not bad at all. Mixed Rayquaza is pretty cool.

Just try not to get hit too much XD

I'll send ya my FC. I should have spare flawless if not they're just 5IV with egg moves, you can train them to be your own too or rebreed them. I am in Japan so if you're in the Americas time wise it may get crazy.

That's good to know, which other non-Anglo countries have this Rayray? So I can just collect in those languages for myself.

Naive is good, and Draco Meteor or Dragon Pulse or Fire Blast or Overheat work great with naive as they're surprise or converge or even fuck you moves.

Congrats, I'm still SRing for Shiny Story Latias in my eshop JP AS game, I've already started a cart JP AS game and same goes with my eshop NA OR game.

I have more luck hatching a bajillion eggs than SRing without a shiny charm. Lol

I'm currently breeding a 6IV naive rock head Bagon for shiny with the foreign ditto. I wanted a 6IV naive sheer force parent but I haven't hatched one yet.

I can't do your recommendation yet since the Scyther is just level 1, so is the starly but the bird is flawless.

I'm going to try and breed as many shinies but I have 5IV flawless and 6IV perfect non-shinies ready to be trained.

 

[PreyingShark]

It's fine the Scyther is level 1 because the Battle Institute will make it level 50.

[ohlawd]

anyone got HA Dragalge or HA Tyrantum? pre evos are ok, females if possible

I'll give you my love

and 4 IV Houndour >_>

 

[JoeM86]

Well, we did it

 

[Hegarol]

Came close at #3

 

[JoeM86]

Came close at #3

Indeed. It was #3 in both Juniors and Masters

Here's the Masters Top 12

 

[Qurupeke]

Of course Electrivire is first. It's really awesome that Pikachu ended up on Top 3 though.

 

[JoeM86]

Considering the amount of teams I saw without Pikachu or with Cosplay Pikachu, I am surprised.

 

[lupinko]

Indeed. It was #3 in both Juniors and Masters

Here's the Masters Top 12

Emolga making the top ten!

Edit: Oh shit, first one I tried to hatch when I got home.

Naive, Rock Head, 31/x/31/31/31/31.

 

[PreyingShark]

Damn, that is pretty much just like how I got my shiny Blitzle, lmao. Congrats!

 

[lupinko]

I did a comparison with Super Trained +4 and without, but anyway vanilla @ Level 50:

Bagon Naive
30–31 HP; 18–19/30–31 Physical; 30–31/30–31 Special; 30–31 Speed

Scyther Adamant
28–29 HP; 30–31/30–31 Physical; 30–31/30–31 Special; 30–31 Speed

Starly Jolly
30–31 HP; 30–31/30–31 Physical; 22–23/30–31 Special; 30–31 Speed

I trained them afterward and did the test on a SR and the stats didn't increase for any of them, so they should be:

Bagon 31/18/31/31/31/31
Scyther 28/31/31/31/31/31
Starly 31/31/31/22/31/31

For Starly it's better I guess. Lol

 

[JoeM86]

According to the PGL, it seems only 1 person used Blitzle in the Pikachu Cup. It only had Thunderbolt and held the Red Orb.


The new meta!

 

[lupinko]

Hey Joe do you know the max number of egg moves a Pokemon can learn via breeding this gen?

 

[backlot]

Well, we did it

Don't suppose that Pikachu has any guaranteed IVs, does it?

 

[JoeM86]

The Championship Point tables have been updated following feedback: www.pokemon.com/us/play-pokemon/pokemon-events/pokemon-tournaments/earn-championship-points-vg/

Don't suppose that Pikachu has any guaranteed IVs, does it?

Based on what a couple of people and I tested, it's 2 guaranteed max

What do you mean max? It can't have more than 2 perfect IVs?

 

[JoeM86]

What do you mean max? It can't have more than 2 perfect IVs?

No, as in two of them are guaranteed as being maximum

 

[backlot]

No, as in two of them are guaranteed as being maximum

Oh, ok. I was expecting none so that's not bad. I assume you can evolve the Pikachu too, right?

 

[JoeM86]

Oh, ok. I was expecting none so that's not bad. I assume you can evolve the Pikachu too, right?

Of course

Hey Joe do you know the max number of egg moves a Pokemon can learn via breeding this gen?

Should be 4 I think.

 

[lupinko]

Of course



Should be 4 I think.

Is it called Raichu when it evolves or is it another Colosseum Pikachu situation?

And thanks!

 

[JoeM86]

Is it called Raichu when it evolves or is it another Colosseum Pikachu situation?

All non-nicknamed Pokémon change names on evolution. Regardless of if they're yours or not.

 

[lupinko]

All non-nicknamed Pokémon change names on evolution. Regardless of if they're yours or not.

Colosseum Pikachu when evolved is still called Pikachu. Lol

 

[Andrefpvs]

Colosseum Pikachu when evolved is still called Pikachu. Lol

That means the "isNicknamed" flag is set to "true", for some reason.



By the way, I can't find the serial code for Pikachu on the PGL. Do they become available in waves?

 

[Starwolf_UK]

According to the PGL, it seems only 1 person used Blitzle in the Pikachu Cup. It only had Thunderbolt and held the Red Orb.

The new meta!

It was paired with a Blue Orb holding Shinx (there were two of those).

I also find it funny two people used Electrike and both made the same mistake of bringing Thunder Wave.

 

[Busaiku]

So how long do we have to claim Pikachu?
Or is it given to the delivery girl?

 

[JoeM86]

You have to redeem the code by October 30th, then it's delivery girl just like all other events

 

[PreyingShark]

Man, SRing Entei is so much more efficient than SRing Landorus, what with the speed check due to Pressure and not having to spend time soaring. Hopefully I won't go insane this time. lol

 

[PreyingShark]

31/31/28/X/27/31 for Adamant Entei

Wow, Entei clearly likes me a lot more than Landorus does.

 

[JoeM86]

Did another new video, focusing on the Pikachu Cup, albeit a bit late

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tY2N9gbaEQg

A common unusual strategy that was seen, but I found it fun

 

[SenorArdilla]

The prize was just Endeavor Pikachu with its HA and Light Ball? That seems anti-climatic.

 

[backlot]

It's the only way to get an Endeavor Pikachu. I'm looking forward to trying Endeavor on a Raichu with Focus Sash.

 

[SenorArdilla]

I guess if you wanted a FEAR Pikachu/Raichu it's alright.

 

[Aveyn Knight]

The prize was just Endeavor Pikachu with its HA and Light Ball? That seems anti-climatic.

To be fair, we knew about it before the competition started.

Plus event collectors (like me) will collect anything : P

[PreyingShark]

Hooray for taking centralization to its natural conclusion!

 

[JoeM86]

The Pokémon Company has put up a survey for an upcoming Online Competition. Here are the five options:

No Mega: Mega Stone held items are prohibited.

Inverse Double Battles: All type matchups are reversed.

Anything Goes: Triple Battles in which multiples of any and all Pokémon and items are permitted (including Pokémon brought over via Poké Transporter).

Anti-Evolution: Only Pokémon that can&#8217;t evolve and haven&#8217;t evolved are permitted. (Mega Evolution does not count as having an Evolution.) All Legendary and Mythical Pokémon are banned.

Underdogs: Pokémon that finished among the top 12 in any 2015 Double Battle Online Competition are banned.

https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/R3CWWXV

Hooray for taking centralization to its natural conclusion!

This is just a Battle Competition, not the new format.

 

[Robin64]

Always thought Underdogs would be an interesting standard rule.

 

[Firestorm]

The prize was just Endeavor Pikachu with its HA and Light Ball? That seems anti-climatic.

And its egg moves. Personally I like this a lot more than yet another Darkrai or Mew or whatever event. Adds an interesting new option to a Pokemon. I had zero interest in the event until I found out it would also have Fake Out and Encore.
