Yeah. It's a little frustrating. I hate when they split things out like this in the game. Pokemon would be one thing; you can trade and breed them. Items were an awful idea to do that to, though. I've been trying to find a Charizardite Y for weeks.

I'll trade a Zardite Y for a chlorophyll bulbasaur

Yay!
It just occurred to me that I only have one left. Let me breed you one. Please give me five minutes.

Okay.

I can give you a 5 IV one if you like. It'll have some levels (daycare) but no EVs. If you choose that one, do you want a particular nickname on it?
PreyingShark

Nah, I'll be using it for breeding. Added your FC from your profile so I'm ready to go.
All right. Ready to go!

Just need a few more Pokemon and I'll be done.
I need the following:
Delcatty
Aromatisse
Slurpuff
Kingdra
Heliolisk
Slowking
Chandelure
Weavile
It would be a real help.
My friend code is: 4596-9625-1154
My mii is wearing blue, glasses and and name is Nate.

Trade requesting now.
Had to reconnect to see you. Hope that glitch is fixed in the next game.
I can't imagine you'd want to use it, but I believe that Bulbasaur also had a Leaf Storm egg move at some point.
That's some trade lol
Chlorophyll Bulbasaur are so common that people here would probably just give it to you for free

It's not horrible, but it's not competitive either. You need beneficial natures. In this case, it basically has neutral nature.

Does anyone have a HA Murkrow and a NA Cacturne from a Safari?

Zardite Ys are easy as hell for me to get and I had a bunch of spares so...
You need to get into IRC chat when you're the gym leader. There are votes for you to fill.
I caught my first random encounter shiny since Sapphire, and it was a male Spinda! Being a wild shiny, it's probably not conpetitive-viable, but I'm still extremely happy that I got it.
Since I grind Spinda hordes to level up my pokémon without spendind any money and have probably battled hundreds of them, I figured I'd eventually get a shiny one (or a Swablu/Scyther), though. >_>

Believe me I've been trying to get in. Could you PM how exactly to find the chatroom
I've sent you a PM.
By the way, I can't curse enough at whoever thought it'd be nice to have Larvesta evolve at level 59. I mean, seriously?!

Thanks to EvilMario. At least I can count on someone in PokeGAF to help.

I have 3 of my 6 dream team slots filled and ev trained. Now im trying to figure out the next 3 and hopefully some of you could give me some advice.
Its Eelectross a worthy investment? I played through most of this game without an electric type and wish I had one several times.
How is Gallade? I really like the pychic/fighting combo but the gardevoir's fairy type is pretty attractive.
I have fire/flying/dragon/ground/steel/bug already covered.

What are some good Pokémon I could use on a Doubles Sandstorm team? Preferably one that is immune to Earthquake and Sandstorm. Maybe Sigilyph?

Sand Veil Gliscor?
PreyingShark
Member
Classics are Garchomp and Excadrill. Though Garchomp doesn't really do the Sandveil thing these days...
Dongs Macabre
aka Daedalos42
I want to try to avoid Sand Veil. Maybe Poison Heal Gliscor with a Toxic Orb or something?
I also need a Pokémon that can reliably inflict burn. I was thinking maybe Sigilyph with a Flame Orb and Psycho Shift.
I already have a Garchomp and Excadrill. Should I use Mega Garchomp, or just give it a Rocky Helmet?
Also, is Barbarcle usefull on a sandstorm team? I was thinking of having a White Herb and Shell Smash to boost its stats to obscene levels.
I really like Eelecktross.
I have Discharge on it to hopefully Paralyze someone since it is slow, though.
Plus it has Levitate so it can't be Earthquaked.
I haven't really got Gallade to work well on my teams, though, unless the opponent has mostly slow pokemon.

Well, im sold on Elecktross.
Does anyone on gaf have a tynamo of any quality to trade? Havent seen it yet so the GTS is useless.

You can search the GTS for the name, its the last option after the alphabet. I have only one, just breed it and return mine. My FC is on my profile.
I am looking for a Cacnea or Cacturne with normal ability.

You can look up any Pokemon on GTS even if you haven't seen it. Just go to very bottom of list and go to What Pokemon? Type in the name and voila.
Edit: Beaten.

If you want to keep Pichu forever you can just slap an Everstone on them to prevent having to press B constantly with each level up.

You're not alone. I got a shiny one and I just kept her a Pichu forever.

One of my favorite "newer" pokemon. Really need to get one for this gen too.

Oh man. After a month of not breeding a shiny at all, and it being a very frustrating month because of it, I've had a golden Charmander surprise me this afternoon. Modest with perfect spread of 31/x//31/31/31/31. THANK YOU HELIX! The other Charmander I did get out before is my physical attacker but sadly is 31/x/31/31/31/31. :| Not 0 in Attack at least and will try to make him work, but this one.. is absolutely perfect. Even got Solar Power on it.

Incredible luck! Very happy for you and your new Charmander friends.

Thank you. Going to be interesting to see the differences. Since I've only played with X, should be fun. Plus Y is better to have as Shiny anyway since mega form looks more badass.
Anyone here by chance have a club nintendo code for one of the qualifying games for the Pokemon giveaway? My daughter wants Pokemon Y on her 3ds, I registered her system for her, just need a code for a game.
I'd be willing to trade my code from Nintendogs, I just can't afford a game this month and I'd like to get it for her.

I have neither sadly.
Thank you for the tip. Sadly, GTS is still FUCKING INSANE.
I cant believe the amount of people asking for every legendary in the book for common pokemon. The only other demand I could meet was a kangeskhan but would require me to raise it 50 levels. Ugh.
Does anyone else have a Tynamo of any quality they would be willing to part with?

I would go with Mega Manectric for an electric type if you have a Mega slot open.
Timid/Modest Manectric @ Manectite Lightning Rod>>Intimidate
4HP 252SpA 252Spe
Overheat
Thunderbolt
Volt Switch
Hidden Power Ice/Grass
This is probably his best set. Its pretty straightforward with Hidden Power and Overheat as coverage moves. HP Ice takes out many of your Dragon threats and x4 weak Ground types after Stealth Rocks. HP Grass is there if you are going against Swampert or Gastrodon and want to put a huge dent in them.
Volt Switch is your main move as you catch switch-ins with a powerful STAB and answer to it with a counter or an opportunity to set up. This makes Manectric an amazing Pivot paired with Intimidate. If you feel they are going to switch, Volt Switch to keep the momentum going.
Thunderbolt for big domage.
Overheat is your answer to Scarf-less (and hopefully without a Sash) Excadrills and bulky Grass types like Trevenant.
Run Modest for a stronger Volt Switch and better consistency with HP Ice OHKOs or Timid to outspeed Timid Noivern.
I can breed you a few if you change your mind.
...
For Fighting types, it depends who you're going for. Fighting types can be your utility Pokes like Hitmontop or your main cannon Choice Band/Life Orb users like Machamp or Conkeldurr.

What good IV (4-5) pokemon with HA do you have?
PreyingShark
Member
The reason it looks "FUCKING INSANE" is because all of the reasonable requests are taken extremely quickly whereas the dumb requests just sit there because they're dumb.
Putting up your own reasonable request is the way to go, really.
Gamer @ Heart

Makes sense. I will have to do that.
Colossal, I have no pokemon with hidden abilities. I just got into this and don't have the patience for it. As far a IVs, I have charmanders, gibles, ralts, and scythers from when I was breeding my own.
Kotto, I sadly don't have another mega slot open. I'm already pushing it at 3. That was a really interesting read though. Made me realize how indepth im going to have to look at my movesets once I have my lineup decided on.
