Thread: Pokémon!

    Closing in on finishing the game finally. Was wondering on my other version for restart, any good 1 pokemon for all "bad" hm's? I kind of want a team of 5 + 1 slave, the 5 can have surf or waterfall obviously, but stuff like cut I'd rather not waste move slots on.

    Also how good is the honey thing when trying to find hordes of pokemon? Is it guaranteed? If so, anyone tested for shiny hunting? Seeing 5 instead of 1 could make it a lot more viable.

    That's true, if you go for a special Alakazam, but if you don't ditch the Adamant alakazam right away because you are not right on your mind and try a physical sweeper with him because he is adamant, then adamant is good for him, whereas docile is crap for ANYTHING!
    I dunno, its fine for playing the game, its just crap for competative gameplay on such a specialised 'mon.

    If it was for just general playing, I would ditch (or wondertrade away) a adamant alakazam, but i would probably settle for a docile one. If I then decided to use Alakazam in any serious battles I'd go and either catch or breed a better suited nature. (and make sure I had the right ability =p)

    Hawlucha can learn most except the water ones, fly strength cut and rock smash - bit of a waste of such an awesome looking pokemon though (probably one of my favourite gen 6 pokes!)

    Cool, thanks! Shouldn't be hard to come up with a team of 5 where one pokemon has surf and another waterfall.

    We are always talking competitively for EVs/natures, since in-game and storywise, it's almost non-important.

    That reminds me, I need to breed for an Abra. Have you seen the stats on mega-alakazam?

    Anyone using Alakazam as a psychical sweeper should be slapped in the face with a smelly Magikarp.

    yeh, mega alakazam will hurt in the face! Hopefully his non ideal ability once mega'd won't hurt too much though...

    Mega Alakazam is fucking insane, though it kind of is but a weaker Mega Mewtwo Y in many aspects.

    Not at all. I find mega-alakazam to be extremely more potent than mega mewtwo Y. That speed <3

    I'd like to see a Mega Marowak that gains a new ability called Flying Club, which is the same as the current thick club but also allows Marowak's 'bone' moves to hit flying pokemon! Has always struck me as odd that throwing a bone can't hit something flying, and yet you can just tackle them...

    Was tempted to make it all ground moves can hit flying, but seemed too much, I just want Bonemarang to be able to hit fliers...

    So what are you guys doing after you've beaten the Pkm League? Personally I've done the Looker missions and lvled all of the Mega Evolutions to 70-75+ and collected all Eeveelutions and a Dragon only team. I've caught all of the pokemon in each of the Friend Safari zones and have come at a point where I've got nothing fun left to do, aside from starting a new game.

    Do you boys n gals have any suggestions? Anything's appreciated

    Battle Maison, completing Pokexed, getting many different kind of teams (all with near perfect/perfect stats), battling people via internet (like Passerby), breeding shinies. Just from the top of my mind.

    Even competitively neutral nature is better for Alakazam than Special Attack hindering ones.

  15. #15795
    I'm sorry for party-crashing/something, I'm having no luck with IV's on caught Dittos, does anyone have a Ditto (pref a foreign one) with 4-5 perfect IV's? Got a few shinies (Geodude/Wingull/Fennekin) to offer up for a trade. Or whatever else would be of interest. Got some pokerus mons as well.

    Again, depends on how you see it, but the point (competitively) is:

    Don't use ANYTHING else, except the preffered nature, and that's where all discussion stops

    In-game and playthrough wise it does not matter even if its adamant, but personally I would prefer an adamant alakazam over a docile/quirky one.

    only have english level 30 ditto hopefully 1 of them have perfect ivs :P

    Why would you prefer adamant alakazam though? I think neutral is still better.
    Not criticizing, just curious.

    Another topic: caught 30 or so dittos, still no adamant or timid one, yet I have like 3 copies of some other natures.

    I did a bit of a ditto farm last night, didn't catch any decent natured ones though =( ideally I want a Japanese Adamant one though...
