took me 7 hours to breed a good machop a while ago
i dont care about IV’s though… that was just to get an adamant/ no guard
but thats what the game is all about! fuck rng
All the good TMs are usually available end game, other than that I suggest you save some of the ones you get along the way (after gym fights/stuff you find in caves/etc.) because the VERY good ones usually can only be used once. Some people also just trade with somebody that has the TM they need (get it on a poke you don’t want and send it over).
I gave myself 99 of each. Only one Stealth Rock in all of Diamond/Pearl/Platinum is weak! :tdown:
Update on my progress in SS.
I sent over one of those event shiny Pichu by local DS wireless and I activated the Spiky-eared Pichu event! :woot:
Like I said a week or two ago my offer to trade the event Pichu to you guys still remains though I’d prefer to do the trades after work (around midnight EST).
i made a quick damage excel spreadsheet if anyone wants it
its old-school but it works
IVs are important, bro.
ya i know they are
but im only really going to battle my friends
not in the mood to get smashed in wifi lol
I want event pokemans, but I haven’t received the copy I ordered online. >__>
Yea would be sweet if i could get a copy of the pichu, i let it dangle to long then valentines day popped up then of course gf woulda been salty if i asked to go to gs that day lol. The only event ive missed thus far.
All I did was just make intensely long breeding chains just to passover TM’s I didn’t have anymore. You learn some weird breeding partners that way.
Who knew a Slowpoke could hatch with Earthquake?
I’m just gonna have to find a way to transfer some of my EV’d pokemon once I eventually pick up HG/SS.
anyone got the event GS gamestop for trade? i just need to clone them with my AR. if not, it’s pokesav time i guess.
What berry reduces Sp.Atk EVs? I can’t seem to remember, and I want to have a decent Shiny Gyarados (a meh lonely nature, but has 27-29 Atk EVs)
So I have restarted my Platinum game.
Trying to get a Female and Shiny Piplup to start.
This will take me long time.
Laugh.
I’ve gotten five Females in forty Resets already.
Hope I do not have to do like 64,000 Resets just to get Shiny Female.
I’ll get a few Shiny Males before I see a Shiny Female.
Laugh.
Oh, and after all is done, I will likely get a Piplup with non-favorable Nature and IV.
Even more time to get Female Shiny Piplup with good Nature and IV.
Laugh.
I love the Pokewalker. I uploaded a Pokemon to it and carried it around with me while at work. During the course of a few hours of just having it on me and fiddling with it every once in a while, I got its level to go up, found a few items (including a Star Piece), and was able to capture a Magby.
only IV that are really important is speed and sometimes HP. Nature and EV’s blow IV’s out of the water in importance, except speed where you need ALL of those. Losing a match by having 2 speed points lower than max is super lame. The chance of bringing something down to a couple hit points, or surviving with a couple hit points is pretty low so for the most part attack/spatk/def/spdef aren’t terribly important to have good IV’s. HP can because being divisible by certain number is important(IE optimal leftovers numbers, or optimal substitute health etc…).
In the end I’ve decided that I need a heracross to kill this fucking Miltank…damn cow…
i restarted my HG a few times and got an adamant totodile with decent IV’s. :lovin:
Anyone familiar with the original GSC, help me with this. I lol’d hard when I beat Whitney (Miltank, shmiltank, early-game Dratini owns you) but at the same time… I really don’t remember her bawling over the loss originally. Shit was funny as hell that I had to try to leave to get my badge. Did she do that originally? I swear, I look at Tate & Liza and Maylene and then look at Whitney and go “…seriously? You’re crying over the loss? You’re like twice their age and they didn’t bawl!”
You can save before you hatch/take the egg from the day-care guy or use an AR code that lets you check egg IVs. Nature, gender, and abilities are determined when the day-care guy gets the egg. IVs are determined when you take the egg from him if I remember correctly.
Hondew berries.
Yep Whitney did that in the original G/S/C.
