Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Indeed. Lately I've been spending more time with other handheld games myself, not necessarily mobile games. I was heavy into mobile games for a while, but realized I was spending a bit too much money on them. :/
Very true. Although, the only reason I began to soft reset is due to Theorymon's thread being closed and him no longer taking requests (at least for the moment).
Soft resetting for Yveltal, when suddenly:
Modest
30/x/31/30/31/31
Not sure if I should keep or aim for something better (can't get much better, honestly). Any recommendations?
Completely understandable. I spent so much time away from Pokemon due to real life issues going on. In the past five years, I've moved at least twenty different times. Now I'm finally in a stable position to get back into it, but since sixth gen (technically the 3DS) made things more difficult...
I never entered races or bothered with "firsts", but I think learning to RNG, for me, was an achievement in itself. I wracked my brain so intensely to figure out how things worked, and eventually it all made sense.
Understandable. It's nice to have you around at least. A lot of your Pokemon were certainly legendary back in the day. I kind of wish the forum thrived in RNG users as it once did.
I've actually been using the Ditto in the hopes that I could get as low of a Special Attack as possible. Your Ditto has 01 in Special Attack, which is why the Absol is also getting 01.
Seeing as Buckert's ideal Absol is having one with 00 in Special Attack (lowest I can get is 01), I'll drop that project and hand it off to anyone else willing to participate!
