According to Serebii there's a ton of trainers you can battle in the Domes in Nimbasa City. Some of the trainers have quite low-leveled Pokemon, around 30 and they're Unova-native, but the rest of them are above 60 and from any region. Can any of these trainers be battled pre-E4? Last time I went to Nimbasa City, all they did was talk to me about sports...
Naw I skipped wild Pokemon and I wasnt underleveled. Thats not the problem.
Where exactly is the Scald TM? I even have the walkthrough guide but I just can't find it.
I had similar problems finding that tm as well. Lol it's in the bottom right corner of the first large ice patch you find when you enter the container. It's blocked from view by a container somewhat until you're almost on top of it.
Well after taking a break of about a week or so from White after getting bored during my 2nd playthrough of the game I just started playing again.
In Pinwheel Forest at the moment with a team of
Atlas (Dewott) Lv 18 Naughty nature
Flair (Pansear) Lv 18 Bashful nature
Sanger (Blitzle) Lv 18 Lonely nature (thanks to synchronise Munna)
Hammertime (Venipede) Lv 18 Hasty nature (with a possible 31 speed iv too)

It's in Cold Storage, on the first patch of ice. It's hidden by some of the containers, but I think it's in the bottom right corner.
EDIT: Ninjask'd/Accelgor'd -_-
mumble grumble
Just hatched an adamant guts timburr with 31s in hp, attack and special defense, but it has a blithering 0-10 in defense.

Ever consider just ramming Scrafty with Archeops's Acrobatics? Darmanitan could have cleaned up the rest...
Otherwise give your Eelektross Acrobatics as well, another good weapon he (unexpectedly) has iirc.
Also, who seriously pays attention to in-game tier lists, people use what they like I thought for the most part lol. The concept of an in-game tier list is pretty laughable...
I love my Eelektross. Thunderbolt/Flamethrower/Crunch/Brick Break destroys all. Mine has equal attacking stats though, so I guess one of them has a high or low IV. I would have kept Acrobatics over Crunch but the only time I ever needed to use Acrobatics, I switched out to Archeops.
hey, if you get him fast enough you wont have to worry about his defense being to low because you will ko the other pokemon before he has a chance to touch you
Saying conkledurr can be fast is...hilarious, the fastest conkledurr is still slow!
Use it as a parent. You have a pretty darn good chance of passing any of those down.
I put a Quick Claw on mine
It feels so good to see it activate and outspeed for the OHKO while my HP bar is still full
I'm not sure what you're trying to say, but are you suggesting that speed is important on this thing? Because it isn't.
Also I don't know how i'm gonna evolve this thing. Don't know anyone else that plays. F you, stupid trade evolutions.
*looks around at the hundreds of Smogon users*
I'm sure you won't have too much problem if you ask someone, I'm sure plenty of people would like to get their trade evos done too :P
Pursuit doesn't work over the internet when a wild thief appears.
Anyway:
Dokkora - #532 (Adamant)
HP: 31
Att: 21, 23
Def: 31
SpA: 29
SpD: 31
Speed: 19
Best Timburr yet, but I think i'm gonna keep trying. I want higher attack.

Epic tank. :O
I think you can run a Bulk Up sweeper with that. Conkeldurr's Attack is so high that it doesn't really mind a loss of 10 stat points in Attack.

Yeah i'm gonna keep this one. It will be a fine bulk up sweeper. The chances of getting 31s in hp/def/spdef again are too low to worry about a measly 10 attack points.
With max hp, I can hit 369 attack and 200 spdef, or 350 attack and 217 spdef. There's no point in maxing special defense while i'm adamant. I wanna put that nature to good use. Not sure which configuration I should shoot for yet.

Actually, max special defense with adamant is love ._.u
370 HP, 370 Atk, 240 Def, and 220 Special Defense is hands down the best spread ever, kudos to whoever devised it here at Smogon. My IVs were 31/31/20/x/31/2, Brave. I'm thinking of making it a trick room sweeper. <3
Well after 8 days or so, I finally caught my near flawless Reshiram (30 SpD, but eh), so I can finally go on with story mode XD
So after all's said and done, ended up with the following after beating N/whoever:
Lv 51 Samurott
Lv 50 Reshiram
Lv 49 Excadrill
Lv 49 Darmanitan
Lv 49 Sawk
Lv 48 Galvantula
In terms of upgrading the in-game team, I think I'll do the following:
-Catch Fraxurus (or whatever its Stage 1 name is at Victory Road) and evolve it to Haxorus for something with False Swipe to catch in-game Pokemon with, as well as for a decent sweeper with DD. Replace Reshiram since I can't properly EV train it since I need to axe off whatever EVs the stupid Zekrom and Cofangrius gave it...boo
-Try grabbing a Starmie out of the water along Rt. 13 (always loved Starmie since R/B), replace Galvantula with it.
-Grab the Larvesta Egg (rng it if possible? If so, EV train it as well) and train up a Volcarona for in-game use. Tough call, but probably ditch Sawk for it if I opt to get it, or maybe Darmanitan due to type redundancy...or, this could also be used in Starmie's spot if I can RNG it...
Other than that, just gotta figure out breeding, move over some of my old beloved Pokemon, and have fun with the end-game I guess. And eventually buy White I guess.

You could always just get the level 70 Volcarona in Relic Castle. Which as a static Pokemon, is perfect for RNGing.
Do you guys Audino grind all the way to 100? If not, what level do you start beating the e4r2?
I'm wondering how best to level my guys to 100 from mid 70s

True enough, but at the same time I don't really desire something that'll just overpower everything in the post game so...easily I guess? lol, yes I'm odd in that way.
