Did you read the EV training guide Nutty?

There might be something there like what you are looking for.

 

[Nutty]

Yes I have looked there. The only 2 places that are mention are the fisherman and the bidooof girl.

I wanna start breeding. and i have a bunch of Dittos already.
Which IVs should i be aware of?

I know 31 for a certain stat, 30 Speed for some Hidden Powers
Lowest possible Speed for Trick Room. What else?

Also, what should my Hp be if i want to receive best recovery from leftovers? or least damage from weather effects or Life Orb?

Best Hp iv for such matters is relative to the actual HP stat of the Pokémon. For leftovers, for example, the actual HP stat at lvl 100 should be divisible by 16 to get the best result IIRC.

Oh okay, Thank you.

I have a question about Unaware. Let's say Bibarel uses Superpower, lowering its Defense and Attack. If it gets confused, and then the next turn attacks itself, would it do normal damage because the attack and defense drops cancel, or would its Unaware ignore the Defense drop and do reduced damage?

 

[OmegaX]

Huh. Haven't used this thing in a while. Forgive image quality.

Wow the AR is huge compared to the tiny GB micro, well as long as it is usable I don't care for awkwardness.
Thanks a lot Lorak for taking the time to take that picture.
One last question, is that AR the same as this one:

I hope that it doesn't mind that the gameboy is japanese but the games are english.

X-Act outlined how Unaware works in the Tauntarel thread, but I'll post an answer here, anyway.

Unaware ignores the opponent's stat changes, not your own. (our Unaware description)

I have a hidden power question..

Im going for Hidden Power Flying, Should I make my parents have a Odd SPeed IV, or give them a Odd Defense,Attack and HP?

Im not sure which direction would be best to go with?

Yeah. It is a bit on the bulky side. It's not the Max Duo.

Guys, where is the best place to level up? I've always used the E4, but I've heard of a trainer with a Chansey somewhere that works well too, but I don't remember where it is. So if I'm trying to level up in the least amount of time, is the E4 or this trainer better?

Use the program in my sig.

Does anyone here have Shoddy? I need some help and I'll PM you the details, but I need to find someone first.

You can try the area in the Survival Area where Sand Stream is raging, the area in the upper left under the exit where the trainer has a chansey, ambipom and "rapidash" (it's that or another worthless fire type lol). That gives a lot of EXP, but sometimes I like to run through the E4 because it's actually kind of fun. Don't forget the concept of cloning Rare Candies in Emerald, though, if you can do that.

 

[Tytus]

Yeah, I can clone Rare Candies, but I'm feeling cheap and trying to save as many of them as I can for checking my eggs. I guess I'll go take a run through the Survival Area. I agree that the E4 is fun, I've just gotten sick of them lol.
Thanks

Is it allowed to use AR to modify your own pokemon? Not for trading. I have a good Adamant Weavile that I want to change to Jolly. That's it. Is that illegal...?

If not, what about changing Gastrodon's trait to Sticky Hold... is that illegal?

 

[Lorak]

Yes to both, in the eyes of most others.

 

[Loyal Arcanine]

When a Pokemon is both paralyzed and confused, which is determined first? I'm in a RPG where we roll dice on AIM for determining whether a move hits, a mon is fully paralyzed, whether a mon smacks itself, etc. etc. Since being fully par is 25% chance and smacking is 50%, it matters to see which is rolled first if say the first roll is 34 and the second 61.

 

[TheMaskedNitpicker]

Confusion is checked first.

 

[psyduckoid]

Can you evolve a pokemon and it will be a shiny or is can there ever be an evolved shiny?

 

[Mormino3]

Can you evolve a pokemon and it will be a shiny or is there never going to be an evovled shiny

If you evolve an already shiny Pokemon, it will be shiny. If you evolve a non-shiny Pokemon, it wont become shiny.

 

[Rawbi]

I just got a Bulbasaur with HP Ground 59. Is that any good? It's Bold natured.

 

[GengarCrysis92]

Do types carry over on Subs? If so, if you baton pass that sub, does it still have that type?

Ie. Driftblim using Sub. Would Brick Break affect it? If I were to Pass it, would Brick Break affect the Sub on a different Pokemon since it was passed from Blim?

 

[Fenikkusu]

No. The only thing that carries over is the substitute's hp, which is set by the initial subber.

At Jiggy - Im having enough computer problems as it is, downloading more programs certainly wont help, thanks though.
