Pokemon game discussion

By then you'll probably be able to use a heart scale if you really want to change your mind.

Get rid of Topsy Turvy

Yeah, Hypnosis will be more helpful for catching Pokémon anyways.

Exactly.

So Swanna looks a lot better when it's flying. Let's face it, its pose in Gen V just left it looking awkward.

It looked like a swan, how was that awkward?

It was just its pose, mostly how its wings were positioned. It never looked as elegant or beautiful as it was hyped up to be.

So I've been doin' a buncha supper-training lately. It's quite useful! But, um, there something odd that happened. Both my dellphox and my newly-caught clauncher's Sp. Att EVs "can't go any higher", but for the former, his Sp. Attack goes all the way to the edge of the little hexagonal graph thing, while the latter's merely comes close to the edge.
Is there a reason for this? Are their Sp. Attack EVs both equally full or not? For the record, the clauncher is not yet fully EV'd, so if his Sp. Attack really isn't as high as possible, than this Sp. Attack punching bag thing should not be saying that his Sp. Attack can't go any higher.

My guess is the discrepancy is because of base stats and/or IV's. I wouldn't expect my Lucario's Attack and Special Defense to reach the same point on the graph if they both got max EV's.

I did my first wonder trade! I sent off Calliope the Amaura since she's the only valuable pokèmon I have that I could stand to lose, and in return I got... a Japanese but otherwise completely ordinary Ralts. Oh well. In other news, I have fully EV-trained my entire team of nine! Dang this supper-training thing is useful.

Yeah, my first Wonder Trade netted me a lv.3 Fletchling. It was somewhat disappointing XD

So I have a foreign Ditto in gen 6 now. I'm gonna start breeding stuff. I have Tyrunt, Greninja, and Charizard to breed. Hit me up if you want any of them.

My first Wonder Trade gave me a.... thing. I don't even remember... I know that then I traded it again and again and again and again and then I ended up with a japanese Dunsparce. WORTH IT.

EDIT: ALSO got to the Pokémon League, with basically my team ultra mega completely finished... My favorite clothes customization-wise... A buncha items of all kinds... Hell yeah, let's do this. AND THE POKÉMON LEAGUE MUSIC IS SO EPIC OMFG

jeez sparkler how in the world are you that fast
you started, what, the day before yesterday???
 
in other news i'm doin' some more wonder trades. sent off the ralts and got a modest froakie, wow. alright, then, traded that one out and got... a freshly-caught route 2 caterpie. well now i don't want to send that one back out. who would want to get that thing??? alright, sending Shaotanziten the sigilyph instead...
and i got a freaking sentret
alright you know what??? forget this
 
in other news forget what i said earlier about the roadblocks being better than BW2's. just got back to lemon-os city and both the last two paths out are blocked:
so one has an electrical problem with the gate. i would say "fair enough" but the actual inside of the game works fine and i am allowed to go into it, i'm just not allowed to exit out the route 14 side of it. why??? there are no doors in the gates, and i don't get blocked until the literal last step before the exit.
then the other. two dudes are standing at the route 16 exit, and they say that to go to route 16, i have to be a bad enough dude to have visited route 15 at least once. so you're saying that these random guys would like to spend all their free time making sure nobody passes them unless they've gone to another arbitrary location? how can they even know i've never been to route 15 anyway??? couldn't i just lie to them???

because im fast like a jolteon muffinz

also why is your name "I Say"


BY THE WAY since this gen we can actually have online tag battles and stuff and I'm pretty sure we can tag with other people to go on Battle Maison, should we like organize Tag Battling tournaments and Battle Maison Tag Playthroughs or something? It'd be really cool!

We can also have four way multi battles :3 ps muffinz if I turn my 3DS now and find you're STILL not on my friends list I will be sorely disappointed >

And hanky, if you're looking to breed Greninja... Look no further ;D mind you, males passing on DW abilities seem to have a very low success rate. I'm breeding my Lefrogue with his torrent sister (...) and so far, 16 eggs and all torrent. It's a concern. But the chance of getting 5 perfect IVs is slightly more than 1 in 6 which is pretty awesome.

has anybody else trained one of those pink slugs, if so were you able to evolve it into its final form because whenever i level it up after using rain dance it doesn't do anything, and i can't find any raining routes

Rain Dance doesn't work to evolve Sliggoo, for some stupid reason. Can't really help you with finding "legit" rain, though. Routes 14 and 19 MAY be your best bet due to their general atmosphere, but I can't make any guarantees. In other news, I've beaten Team Flare for good. Thoughts and details under the spoiler, so don't open it unless you've also gotten that far or don't mind plot spoilers.

Team Flare:

okay i evolved slugger and got slugdragon.  it's pretty cool

that makes my team:
-chesnut (Wall Nut)
-firebird (Flying Man)
-aurorasaurus (Brontoth)
-pinsir (Cutman)
-clawdabber (Crawmad)
-battleslug (Plasmar)

still haven't learned the names of all of these since i give them all nicknames

i might be able to wi-fi battle with somebody but it'll be hard to plan

I HAVE TWO SPARE SKRELPS TO TRADE TO WHOEVER IS PLAYING X VERSION

FIRST COME, FIRST SERVE

I HAVE Y WHERE DO YOU GET THEM

Use good rod on ocean routes

Y?

Hey hanky I've been meaning to ask you. *interviewer voice* how do you feel about this generation's massive boons to Crobat, and its steadily increasing likelihood that it ends up in OU? To wit;  

-Poison made more viable with fairy introduction
-Toxic has flawless accuracy when used by a poison type (hits through dig)
-Females van pass egg moves so Hypnosis + Brave Bird set is finally viable
-Hidden Ability (infiltrator) now hits through substitutes
-Defog upgrade, now removes all hazards from both sides (no immunities like rapid spin, but easily taunted and hurts own hazards) 
-immune to the effects of Sticky Web

In addition to the older stuff:

Defog lowers evasion; easy hypnosis (that bypasses substitutes)
Excellent resistances
Super speedy
Solidly average offense/defense
Roost
Generally Badass
Brave Bird
U turn
????


Anyway. I'm done with Lefrogue (for now. Having NO luck whatsoever with those perfect protean froakies so it's going on the back burner. Bit of you guys want decent regular or protean froakies then I'm still your man.) and he is cool. Runs rings around an awful lot since his resistances change constantly. But now I want to train something else and can't decide! I want a full participation vote guys!

rotom is cool beans

Well, Ron Paul has access to Amnesia, so that'd be a good bet.
