Wouldn't that be incredibly slow?

I personally create a super mon first and then use the RNG exploit to make good mons. The only problem was what I talked about earlier where even after doing it 9 times I didn't get a single one with the stats I wanted. Guess I was just unlucky.

Haha, I just discovered that you can save 100 battle videos (I thought it was just one) and can watch them at any time. Anyone want to see the epic battles between nuclearwhale and me? They almost always come down to one last pokemon.

You can boost your chances by giving one parent the EV boosting item for the IV the other parent is missing. That should increase your chance of a 5 IV pokemon to 3/5, if my math is correct. 'course, you can't pass on natures if you do this...

(On that note, I bred a 6 IV female Eevee yesterday, so I can now work on passing down natures. Yay!)
Yeah, but if you want a specific nature, then you have to multiply that chance by 1/25.

What I do is get a female mon with the nature I want, then introduce IVs one at a time.

I suppose you have a couple choices. You can start with two 5 IVs, use the EV booster and breed a 6 IV pokemon (~1/50 chance), then introduce the nature you want (~1/50 chance) or you can start with two 5 IVs, breed the nature and 6 IV that you want (1/192 chance if they both have the same not-perfect IV, 1/384 if their not-perfect IVs are different...)

Those odds can be further modified by gender, of course.

Or you could just use a 5 IV pokemon instead of a 6 IV pokemon and it gets a lot easier...

Yah, it sounds like minecraft with content, you have obviously missed the point, people dont like content, they like different coloured blocks.
Seems to work fine with my copy. As soon as I loaded the human caravan came by and the world burst into fire.

So, I just saw a thing and OH MAN CHESPIN IS ADORABLE. :))
I also discovered that EB doesn't get more copies of the game(s) until November 21. Bummer. No doubt the wise thing to do would be to wait, save my cash for now and buy a physical copy when I can, but D'AWW CHESPIN I can hardly see myself being that patient. Ehehe.

The RNG does not like me, so this is what I do.

But all the Vulpixes that were coming out were 3IV or 4IV. That doesn't even make sense. Destiny knot is supposed to guarantee 5 of the parents' IVs will be passed on, so I should almost always be getting 5 IV. Not sure if supremely unlucky or what but after a few hours of this I sat there wondering why I was trying to make a 6 IV Vulpix the first place since I don't even like Ninetales. At least now I have several 5 IV male Vulpixes to serve as bases for almost every other pokemon in the game.

If you have a spare female Vulpix with Draught ability, would you like to trade for it? Somehow I'm drawn to Mega Venusaur and may build a sun team around it.

Also is everyone here aware of the this RNG-trick in breeding? I haven't used it but I thought it might be useful to know.

I had tonnes but I wonder traded them all away. I can breed some more if you give me an hour or so, with pokerus if you want it.

Who are you in game?

By the way, does anyone have a regular Gliscor or a Gligar with immunity?

Thanks, I can be online in an hour or so. I am Elle Ciel/Elsior in the game. I haven't caught Gliscor yet, though.

Hoo boy, downloading it now.
Expect lots of stupid noob questions in the near-ish future. (Because come on, who actually reads instructions these days?)


Edit: Oh wow, Nintendo don't even give you an estimate of download time? What the heck?

Venusaur loses Chlorophyll when it mega evolves.

Actually managed to get some Wi-fi at my cousin/barber's house. I added a 2 of you guys Kansa and  Rekka.  I can find all 3 of Kansas pokemon. So I assume he friended me back.

Kansa,  if you can, could you see what type my friend safari is?


Also, I tried some wonder trading. Didn't get anything really neat besides a Protean Froakie and a Japanese ditto.

I'm sorry Kansa, I mistaked your character for Umiman for whatever reason. I just remembered catching a Braixen from the persons Safari.
