Hey, I just reset for a near flawless Calm Diancie... HP, Defense, Special Defense, Speed are all 30-31, special attack is 24-25, and attack is 4-5. My question is if there would be any demand for a Calm nature on this guy? I was naturally aiming for an offensive Mega set. Would be a shame to waste the IV spread; hoping this would be good enough to trade for one.

I would toss that unfortunately, if it's not too late.
Not too late. Calm is just that bad eh? Thank you.
Not bad at all, if you had 30/31 in Special Attack then it's awesome.
Can anyone help me evolve my Haunter into Gengar?
What people can say is "realistic" is entirely dependant on how many resets you're willing to do.
If to you it's realistic to do 300,000 resets, then hex flawless is entirely realistic. If you're more in the range of 1000–2000 resets, then yes, that's not realistic. To give some benchmarks however:
I will assume you'd be willing to settle for one of 2 natures (for example, Timid/Modest; Jolly/Adamant, etc.). When I say 5IVs, etc., I mean in stats relevant to the nature, so not counting 31/31/x/31/31/31 for example.
• 5IVs at 30+ (30+/30+/30+/x/30+/30+ for example):
- 1 in ~892
• 4IVs at 30+, Speed at 31 (30+/30+/30+/x/30+/31 for example):
- 1 in ~1,123
• 6IVs at 30+:
- 1 in ~7585
• 5IVs at 30+, Speed at 31:
- 1 in 10,114
If you're wanting a certain Hidden Power too, this severely lowers the odds.
For example: 5IVs at 30+ (ignoring Attack) with Hidden Power Fire:
- 1 in ~71,390 (up from 892 in the above setting)...
• 5IVs at 30+ (30+/30+/30+/x/30+/30+ for example):
- 1 in ~892
• 4IVs at 30+, Speed at 31 (30+/30+/30+/x/30+/31 for example):
- 1 in ~1,123
• 6IVs at 30+:
- 1 in ~7585

Different people have different standards.
Just know if you want to trade it then that standard is going to be very high to perfect.
Personal use? Do what feels right, just don't go tooo low of course.
Like currently I'm softrestting for Adamant Groudon, and my best so far has been 31/31/22/9/31/31, decent but too defense low...
Here's what I've caught so far in Gen 6:
Timid 30/6/31/28/31/31
Careful 28/31/31/8/31/27
Calm 31/13/31/29/31/30
Adamant 31/28/31/16,17/31/31
Some would say these are trash but IMHO unless you are playing in actual tournaments for money/prizes then less than perfect is still fine.
Very rarely have those stat differences costed me games among battling randoms on wifi and friends who actually play competitive.

Unless you're running a Soak team, you probably don't want to be running Volt Tackle this competition. Too many things with Motor Drive and Lightning Rod that would love to take advantage of you. Also, you need a Speed boosting nature, otherwise your Pika will be good for one Fake Out and that's it (you might not even pull one off if your opponent runs a Raichu like me). The set I'm running on Raichu (which also works for Pikachu) is this:
Raichu @ Air Balloon
Lightning Rod
Jolly Nature
252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Spe
- Fake Out
- Encore
- Helping Hand
- Knock Off
I'm working on new banners for "Tangela's Trading Thread" and can't decide on what to call the "Transfer-only HA female spitbacks"-section. Any ideas? Preferably a title consisting of two words.
Dream Ball + Shop Ball females. No Apricorn Balls...
@Wifi-Mods
If the banners, I have right now, are to big, please let me know and I'll make them smaller.
EDIT:

Yeah.
I can help you later when I send you the fossils. I still need to breed two more though, so let's hope that RNG doesn't mess with me today...
That's a toss. Speed's too high for that nature, and you've only got the three guaranteed flawless stats.
Looking for someone to clone a rnged shiny rotom (31/17/30/30/30/30 modest) caught in a premier ball, looking for 2 copies + original and you(whoever clones it) can keep a copy for yourself.
Simple toss. Speed to high others non-31
Looking for these females:
Dream/Repeat Ball Damp Paras
Dream/Repeat Ball Contrary Spinda
Premier/Luxury Run Away Lillipup
Luxury Ball Sand Force Roggenrola
Dream Ball Speed Boost Venipede
Luxury Ball Shadow Tag Gothita
Dream/Repeat Ball Damp Paras
Dream/Repeat Ball Contrary Spinda
Premier/Luxury Run Away Lillipup
Luxury Ball Sand Force Roggenrola
Dream Ball Speed Boost Venipede
Luxury Ball Shadow Tag Gothita
Still in need of assistance? I can clone in bulks if you need more than 2 and it's quick. Let me know.
aye I still need assistance and I don't really need that many just the 2 clones and the original.
Edit: thank you very much

Sorry for the late reply, and alright I'll get on right now and add you.
edit: seems like I had you already added from before, going online.
edit 2: the first Rotom I sent back is the original by the way.
