Can I please get a Togepi from someone? I need a fairy-type and I need a flying-type. Togekiss is the answer.

I have a single female Hustle Togepi, if you wish and are online at the moment.  I'll try to stick around for a bit, but I can't make too many promises regarding that.

EDIT:

Where do you get Togepi in X? Is it even available?

Friend Safari.  I don't think we have any, though; I picked mine up through Wonder Trade.

Behold the dreaded Swoobat sweep: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/randombattle-94368131

What were they even trying to do with Avalugg? And why no sucker punches from Kangaskhan?

[neotemplar]

I actually have like 1/2 a box of 3-4 star togepeis with serence grace...  I sorta was breeding them.. so if you need one...

(Also I bred an 100% perfect Porygon so woot)

[Culise]

Wonder Trade definitely cleaned up quite a bit with the release of Pokebank, it seems.  I barely received any early route fodder in trade, maybe around 50% or so.  Trading out 59 Dratini (most HA, some not), I still received the following quality Pokemon:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

2x Dedenne (one special, one mixed)
2x Synchronize Ralts (with natures I don't have)
1x Adamant Immunity Gligar (already have one, but it's nice)
1x Leafeon
1x Prankster Impish Klefki
1x Adamant Mawile (already have one, but it's nice as well)
1x Adamant Trapinch
1x Protean Froakie (already have...yeah)
1x Beautifly
1x Infiltrator Espurr
1x Gourgeist
1x Phantump (evolved immediately to Trevenant)
1x Swadloon (creatively named something I won't post here to keep the thread clean, but actually the only such Pokemon I received with such a "creative" nickname)
4x Charmanders
1x Cyndaquil
1x Chimchar
2x Honedge (one physical, one special)
1x DOGARS!
1x Emolga
...and...
1x Adamant HA Dratini.  For a Jolly HA Dratini.  I hope the other person was as amused as I.

I still have another box of Dratinis plus another three of assorted Pokemon (HA Vulpix, HA Fletchlings, Swinub, HA Eevees, miscellaneous Dittos and precisely one HA Bulbasaur) to clean up, but it's getting rather late and Tawarochir seems to have gone offline.  If you'd still like that Togepi, my Friend Code is in the OP.  Feel free to post yours, and we can try to meet up in around 20-24 hours from the time of this post.  Alternately, neotemplar likely has a much better selection than I, if he's been breeding. ^_^

So I haven't played a single game of Pokemon since Emerald, and that was on an emulator.

Thinking of trying SoulSilver or HeartGold. Wish there was a rom that let me have ALL THE POKEMON, instead of having to choose between em. Mankey, I love you! ;-;

I think he expected me to switch out the Swoobat when the Avalugg came out.

No idea about the Kangaskhan. I was expecting a fake out at least.

[Silfurdreki]

I've finally started breeding a team in-game. Just filled a box with Eevees with the wrong ability... Is it impossible to get offspring with a HA if only the father has it? It sure seems like it at this point.

I'll not go for perfect IV pokemon, though, it's just too tedious without a good Ditto.

Anyway, here's the planned final team:

Disregard my own notes on where attacks come from and such.

I'm kind of starting to doubt the choice of Tyrantrum. I originally included him to have something to counter Talonflame, since pretty much everyone else in the team will die to it. Any comments or suggestions?

[Greiger]

I ended up replacing my tyrantrum with a Rhyperior, tyrantrum sounds good on paper but the dragon typing really seems to have become a massive disadvantage to everything that has it, and it would often die the first round it was out.   

Rhyperior with an assault vest, solid rock and some defensive EVs however can take hits even from 4x weaknesses and hit back just as hard with it's crazy base attack and stab rock/ground.  If it didn't hit a weakness it might as well have been wonder guarded, so talonflame can't do a thing to it.  It can also learn metal burst with some breeding, allowing it to directly counter anything that hit it for 1.5x damage.  There are probably better pokes for the role, but I found rhyp to be significantly better than tyrantrum in almost every way.  As a bonus he's incredibly slow, slower than even a lot of trick room pokes, giving them a nasty surprise.  Only leg up tyrantrum has is stealth rock.

Note that I primarily play doubles and triples, so take this with a grain of salt if yer doing singles.  He probably isn't as useful if you don't have another poke available to snipe out what he's weak to as your opponent wastes a turn underestimating his defenses.

I'd suggest Aerodactyl.

I'm pretty sure you can, but it's a relatively low chance.

Ah, whoops, I missed this.  Yes, an HA father can pass along his HA if he's breeding with a Ditto, but only with a Ditto.  HA father + non-HA mother = non-HA children, even if the breeding pair are the same species.

Check out the Reddit remake Pokemon Zeta / Omnicrom.  Seems to include all Pokemon so far.  I have barely started, but a lot of people like it.

Rhyperior or Aerodactyl. Aero is more offensive, and while it can take a resisted hit it's not going to enjoy it. Rhyperior + assault vest = bullet sponge. My Rhyperior has Poison Jab/Megahorn/Rock Wrecker (gonna replace that with Stone Edge if it can learn it)/Earthquake.

That would explain it, then. I'm breeding two Eeevees.

that's a scary rhyperior.

I think both are good too. Only problem with aerodactyl is that it must have mega stone. So no good items.
