Sticky Have a question? Ask it here! (NOT SM QUESTIONS)

I tried a forum search but I couldn't find it there, so I'll try here.

Is there a thread or a guide somewhere that can tell me the location of all the wild berry trees and their respective colours?

what breeds with sneasel to get icicle crash and knock off respectively?

Beartic learns Icicle Crash at Lv. 37. Knock Off isn't an Egg Move for Sneasel and the only way to get it on one is through the move tutor in Gen IV/V. This means it's illegal with Icicle Crash.

is the Masuda Method still possible in X & Y? And if so, what is the multiplier?

We won't know the actual multiplier until we get into the game data, but it seems to be about the same as BW, so it's probably still the 6x rate.

well I might have a real dumb question but say my honchkrow has a taught move like sucker punch and I breed it, is it possible that my murkrow will have it as well? Just wondering with bp/taught moves from other generations like a treecko with thunderpunch

Tutor moves do not pass down unless they are also egg or TM moves for the offspring.

What happens when you have +5 viable egg moves between parents? Are only 4 passed on at all, or are the extra's only available through move reminder?

What's there to do in this game on my birthday?

You can only pass 4 moves.

TheMantyke tested this. Males moves are passed down first, then the females moves override those in the same way the daycare would.

So Daddy can pass down moves A and B and mum passes down C D E Child gets B C D E (Assuming it can have them as moves).

Yeah I checked myself just now and came back to say that. Thanks.

What Pokeball (available in XY) looks best with Dragonite?

 

[Panda]

Asking the following again:

Is there really no way to access your Battle Box when a friend/acquaintance challenges you to a battle over the internet?

Also, I'm trying to breed an HP Ice Alakazam under the unfortunate circumstance of currently having no access to another 30 speed IV human-like Pokemon. So far, I've managed to breed two Timid Magic Guard Abras with a spread of 31/31/31/31/31/28. Are these ultimately worth using, or should I keep trying my luck for that 30 speed IV? Put another way, are there any specific threats that I wouldn't outspeed given the 2-point IV difference (aside from other Alakazam, of course)?

Edit: Just got another one with 28 Speed. AAHHH.

Double Edit: OK, never mind about the Abra. Finally got one with 30 speed, and oh is he beautiful.

that's pretty subjective, but you can get:
pokeball, great, ultra, premier, dive, quick, dusk, repeat, timer, nest, net, luxury, heal, master

Alakazam has 120 base speed. So does Dugtrio, which will outspeed you. Hawlucha has 118 base speed... With an IV of 28, you should still outspeed it by one point at level 100. At level 50 you might tie, I didn't calc the stats. Everything else you should outspeed still.

That pretty much what I was thinking, yeah. Even if I was going for a 31 speed Alakazam, there would still be the issue of Dugtrio using Sucker Punch so that was always a lost cause. Other than the moles, both Arceus and Sceptile have 120 base speed, and given that the former is banned to Ubers while the latter is rarely used in the higher tiers the only real issue (unboosted-wise) is an opposing Alakazam. Plus, even had I opted to go for the Mega Alakazam route, the only notable unboosted threat I see is Mega Aerodactyl which won't likely be one of the more common megas, anyway.

Regarding scarf-mons, I noticed that 28 speed timid Alakazam still outpaces jolly scarf-tar. That's cool. Not sure if anything notable between base 61 speed and base 74 speed would commonly run scarf/neutral-nature/max speed EVs/IVs. At least, nothing outside of Tyrantrum which 28 speed Alakazam still outspeeds.

In any case, I think I would have been pretty safe running 28 speed Alakazam had I not just hatched a 30 speed one.

Is it possible to find a Corpish with it's hidden ability in Pokemon X and Y? If so, where?

Crawdaunt can be found in dark-type friend safaris with its hidden ability.

I just buy pokemon Y and I had plan team this

Delfox
Venusaur
Lucario
Yveltal
Azumarill

I didn't paln for the last on yet. Any suggest?

 

[Red G]

Your first three pokemon will win the game for you, run anything you want. One of the fossil 'mons is fun, and you get it for free.

Lately I've been trying to do the Celebi Egg Glitch in Gold, but I've been having trouble getting a bad clone. (A couple of times I got a level 255 clone, but I tried it; it doesn't work). Since I don't have access to Pokemon Stadium 2, what's the best way to get the bad clone?

Is there any evidence to confirm the rumour floating around that tipping increases shiny encounter rate?

Rumors, but that's it. No one has any real evidence that tipping does anything.

Can I use Pokebank (when it will exist) to stock Pokemon then I erase my save and start a new run and get all my Pokebanked Pokemon ?

I'm pretty sure you can. You can't store items in Pokebank though.
