You're most welcome. Ditto had been waiting patiently for his new home. Hope he helps out!
For my Y playthrough I'm going to try using premier balls, or continue my using Quickballs.

I still did not know what an Adamant Orb was. In other words I never bothered to get Zygarde or Mewtwo.
However, in doing that I forgot one important thing. Assuming Sap Sipper works like Flash Fire (which similarly cancels the attack) the boost only applies once but nullifying that type will happen every time.
As for Nidoking most people expect life orb, it might be worth sacrificing the life orb boost and going with choice scarf. The getting a Nidoran with Hustle is not the fun part, especially if you like non-Pokeballs like me (means getting a female).
For online honestly I'm someone who knows the rules, knows the tactics but can not formulate them into a strategy (this step is very hard) and so my victories come from when my opponent makes what I see as fundemndal errors (e.g. not running weakness policy on Dragonite, choosing to fake out the Medacham that switch out due to fearing a shadow ball from Gengar leaving Ninetales to heat wave).
Monotype teams may be able to work but are vulnerable. Someone in Japan qualified with monotype Psychic but maybe that types works for monotype. I was thinking of monotype Ghost but ghosts seemed rather imbalanced in stat spreads and I thought it woulds be too hard to use.
*-I think powersaves requires to connect to the web to make use of the codes and the codes have been pulled from the server.
Right, I just figured it out. Sap sipper cancels an attack which is why bullet seed did not work (i.e. thew whole duration got canceled) which is why I suggested two attacks (i.e. Karn) as this would be two cancels.hmmm , let me try it
nope , same thing
However, in doing that I forgot one important thing. Assuming Sap Sipper works like Flash Fire (which similarly cancels the attack) the boost only applies once but nullifying that type will happen every time.
For online I really wouldn't try doing hazards (maybe if you've forced a switch, doubles or 3v3 you just don't have the manpower to take hits). That aside, Garchomp is quite often choice banded which (having not done the maths) I'm guessing made the difference. Air baloon might be a worthwhile hold item but I don't know if Banded Garchomp still wins with other moves.

Assuming you have a cart there is powersaves but the codes for Diance have been C&D'd by the Pokemon company* so instead you'll have to find someone that a Diance before that and can clone one.

Well, found out how to get the preorder movie tickets at the theater this evening (Went to see Cpt America). Gotta go to one of the approved dealers to do so. Daiei, 711, and some other places on the list. 711 is easiest to get to no matter where you are, haha. Gotta use the machine there. Costs 1400 yen. Got my code, but will redeem it after my dinner here in a few moments.
It was interesting because just a bit before we went into theater I found out there were special dealers for it (never saw it mentioned til my search while waiting on movie). But previews showed short clips and about the Darkrai thing and all and I guess 711 advertising "buy tickets here".

Before this generation I'd save my Masterballs for the stupid running legendaries.Though Gen 1 and 2 I used Masterball on Mewtwo.
I'm the crazy one that tries to catch a legendary inside an Ultra/Dusk/Quick/Timer ball.
Nearly gotten Zygarde in a Luxury ball lol
I Premier Balled shiny Ho-oh and shiny Mewtwo in HeartGold. It literally took me longer to catch Mewtwo than to find the shiny one.
Oh I can get a ticket from 711? So is it just purchase from the machine and get the cashier to print it for you?
Muku

The machine (never dabbled in one at 711...tbh didn't know 711 even had ones.. until this evening, only ever used Lawsons) you go through process and it prints out something for cashier. Take it to them and pay and they give you the ticket with your Darkrai code on it.
Booklet they give you gives you directions on how to redeem it if ya need it.

I have x3 Darkrai with Phantom Force up for grabs right now. Really looking to give them to cloners, that don't mind helping pass them out. Let me know if interested. Comes with its Enigma Berry.
Edit: I'm sure once I hand them out a list will start forming. Would prefer to pass them to folks who can help pass them out, since I imagine it'll be a popular one.

I'd love to grab one of the clones but sadly I can't clone, so yeah, I'll wait for more people to clone him.

An Enigma berry huh...I'm noticing a pattern with event Pokemon holding it
Pokemon traded by GTS (according to PGL).
2014-04-15 77,756,448
2014-04-20 79,145,450
Not really trying maths implies it has been more active in the past (as you would expect...game launch, bankrush)
I probably won't keep this up to date...

I could use the enigma berry. Been trying to gather all the berries to farm up in my game. But like Sleep, I dunno how to clone.

I tried the Graffiti game today and I got 5/6 power items. notbad.gif
Edit: 7/6 now (double'd with a power band). For 3000 miles I think that's a heck of a better return on points than the ballon pop one is.

Magby-Magmar-Magmortar for breeding, anyone?
Think I'm going to collect all the fire types and see what party is better.

Game gods were good to me last night and saw fit to bless me with a 6IV Premier Ball female Adamant Justified Growlithe with Flare Blitz, Close Combat, Crunch and Morning Sun I'm hatching her sons now.
I can help you clone

Torchic doesn't learn Knock Off, Blaziken can learn it via move tutor and it would have to be imported from B2 or W2.

I have some with Baton Pass, but they're all dudes I think.
But I do have access to field Pokemon with Knock Off and Low Kick, so it's doable for me in theory...
Do you have an Absol with Justified BTW?
EDIT Nevermind, Knock Off isn't an egg move.

Damn. Really wanted to try a new Mega Blaziken build too. Ah well, guess I'll wait for Z or try my hand at breeding a good Blaziken in B2.

I breed Ocean buggies. I have a bunch of 4IV and 5IV Timid females in Premier Balls or fresh-caught female Scatterbugs in PokeBalls. If you'd like a boy or a specific ball just let me know.

didn't expect the 2nd vivillon. thx for the additions!
The Diancie distribution is given via local wireless at the movie theatre playing the movie itself.
So you have to be there in person.
Muku: ah ok, that's like buying concert tickets or psn/XBL vouchers.
i know that , and because i don't live in japan , i am asking if someone could lent me his Diancie for while and i will clone it and return it
how the movie anyway ?
Either is fine.
The only code given out right now is the prepurchase bonus for Darkrai. You don't get Diancie until the movie is actually out in theatres, so July.
oh, my mistake , i read it wrong

It was my first set, I only have a jolly 6iv ditto so i just go untill I get desired nature and then I use everstone.
Such is my life too. Trying to get a random bold rotom.
Jeff Vader

Oh wow. That just sounds hella crazy to breed like that.
Is there an easier option in my case. Anyone have a bold ditto with good Ivs?
