DO IT! JOIN THE LUXURY BROS!
But it's so many :(

Goodra, Greninja, Mawile, Togekiss, Cinccino (currently in premier),Eelektross, Milotic, Ninetails, Salamence.

Ugh. I bred Ninetails and Salamence fairly recently, but couldn't get ahold of HA versions in luxury balls :( Togekiss is easy, so is Greninja. And I already have Tynamo and Feebas in luxury balls, thanks to you. Hmm I might

lol all of my competitive Pokemon (non-genderless) are in Luxury Balls.

I think I started the whole Luxury Ball craze too as soon as it was found out that PokeBalls pass down.

Anything that I bred that can pass down the ball, it has been all luxury balls. No matter how painful it was. Gender-less is obviously plain. >.<

Thanks to you, I am with you on the same path.

Off topic, but does anyone want my crunchy roll 48 hour guest pass? I don't have anyone to give it to and it expires soon.

On topic, I am now going to train a Mega Aggron. That thing is a monster.

@MicH and DaBoss: I've got female frillish in luxury balls for both of you. They know pain split, recover and acid armor. Tell me when you want them. :p

I started with luxury balls about a month ago thanks to you guys in this thread too. Went ahead and rebred all I had. Also went back to gen V and caught the legendaries with the nature I wanted and in luxury ball. Still not sure why, but I can't stop anymore.

Mich, I most likely have extra female Mawile, Goomy and Minccino in luxury balls I could pass you later if you plan on rebreeding.

Thank you! I have a Minccino already, but the Mawile and Goomy will help me out greatly :D

FUCKING YES. As other people have stated, complaining to GAF works. I just got my timid female serene grace togepi. Time to evolve her then breed it with the god ditto. Wooo.

I can go get a HA Vulpix and Bagon for you.
 
ScraftyDevil, whatever happened to the Podcast?

Life got in the way. I didn't want to start it until I have time to edit and produce it, which I will starting in a few weeks.

Would there be interest in something like that, though? Who here would listen to a semi -regular PokéGAF podcast?

I never listened to a podcast before so yours should be interesting. :D

Edit: @MicH: Enjoy, when you are working on the bagon, let me get a reject then. :p

Well I would definitely be up for hosting. If you'd have me.

You, Beef and Emitans still have priority for hosting spots since you were the first three to show interest. There'll probably be a rotating fifth slot though so that we can have special guests and the like.

Is there a stat calculator that incorporates things like stat boosts and depletions from moves like swords dance, sticky web and other things like that?
 
I have a sudden urge to rebreed all my old Pokémon into luxury ball versions

Please stop me

I have this urge too, but I do my best to fight it off. It's not like it would take too long now that Ditto the Gawd exists but still.

I'm happy with what I have, I guess it just gives me more motivation to stick to Luxury/Premier balls in the future.

Eww premier! Get rid of those dirty pokeballs! Lol.

Just use the Showdown damage calculator but ignore the damage.

What?

That's what i currently use

EDIT: Wait i found this on Gfaqs on the Heartgold board. Is this accurate?

Moves that raise stats raise them by 1 level, or get a +50% boost. Moves that sharply raise your stats raise them by 2 levels, or get a +100% boost. Stat increasing moves can be stacked, but your cannot raise a move by more than 6 levels, and each additional level adds 50% to the boost.

In other words:
1 level=+50%
2 levels=+100%
3 levels=+150%
4 levels=+200%
5 levels=+250%
6 levels=+300%

Yeah, that's right. Stat boosts gives +50% per level.

Took me less than 30 minutes to rebreed my Togekiss just now - withut Ditto even. Yay!

Aw shit, the Shellgon was not HA afterall. Who the hell at GameFreak though it was a good idea to have Shellgon have the SAME HIDDEN ABILITY AS HIS REGULAR ABILITY

Thanks anyway, macklelol, I appreciate it :D
Rock Head and Overcoat (HA)

Shelgon's hidden ability is Overcoat and it's normal ability is Rock Head.

EDIT: Beaten by DaBoss

I am pretty sure that's a mistake. I just bred a female Overcoat Shellgon with my male Sheer Force Bagon and got a Rock Head Bagon

EDIT: NEVER MIND I AM AN IDIOT. I got some Sheer Force ones in this batch. SHOOT ME

Isn't it a 60% chance of HA passing on from Females?

There is still a chance of the regular ability passing on if i'm not mistaken.
 
Yo, what the shit. A x4 Fire Punch from Dragonite only took down Mega Aggron's health by around 40%.... that thing is too bulky.

Mega Aggron is pure Steel and Filter reduces SE damage to 1.5x. I'd say 40% damage is pretty good, all things considered.

I want to train one but I don't have the Mega Stone.

I swear...I just read this comment after having been breeding for a shiny charmander for about 2 days...then just now...the miracle finally happened XD

Wait, it doesnt just reduce the damage by x.5? I thought that at x4 damage, it would just take it down to x3.5...

Bulbapedia says it reduces damage by 1/4. Mega Aggron shouldn't be taking 4x damage from anything in the first place though unless it gets hit with Forest Curse.
