Ion Deluge has +1 priority ingame, but not in PS. I noticed this when I was running a Doubles strategy involving Ion Deluge-ing my Noivern's Boomburst with Electrivire for the speed boost.

When you Mega Evolve and mouse over your pokemon, it displays their non-mega ability as their current one until you switch out. VERY minor, but can be confusing if you don't know a mega's ability.

#1 is NOT a bug. Infiltrator has been changed in Gen 6 to bypass substitutes, Sound moves such as Hyper Voice and Boomburst also bypass substitutes. #2 is not a bug either, but a result of no backsprite having been drawn for him as of yet. Eventually he'll get one whenever someone makes one.

I want to evolve my Helioptile, but I'm waaaaaaaay too afraid of using my only sun stone. I kinda want a Heliolisk later on once I've bred a good natured one too, but I've heard that's the only Sun Stone in the game.

God damn, now I know why Boomburst (Noivern's signature move) is Normal type. A power 140 move that hits all enemies with 100% accuracy and no repercussions would be broken beyond words if it had STAB. It already hits harder than a STAB boosted Dragon Pulse.

I have a Noivern with Infiltrator, and I can confirm that it DOES indeed go through substitutes now.

This is an indirect result of me screwing around with the new Gen 6 stuff, but I just tried something, and got a different error message than the usual one when trying to enter a battle with a gen 6 team plus Politoed I got the usual "THIS POKEMON DOES NOT EXIST" stuff, but PS! also gave me a...

Gonna do some Gen 6 theorymonning now, bear with me. Noivern is an incredibly fast, bulky pokemon with a decent Sp. Atk of 100-105, who also learns Draco Meteor, Hurricane, and a move called Boomburst, a power 100 Normal-Type Earthquake Malamar is a slow but bulky mon who knows a move called...

http://pokemonshowdown.com/replay/ou-55897549 Some idiot decided it would be a good idea to use his Jirachi to Trick a Scarf onto my Shell Smashed Cloyster. It was not a good idea.

This and also some people enjoy winning with Pokemon that they've put real work and effort into raising, as opposed to Pokemon that they generated on PS! in under five seconds. I find it more rewarding, so I usually do Wi-Fi.

Noivern works because he has 115 base speed and 105 base Special Attack. He greatly outspeeds Medicham, and can easily OHKO with Hurricane.

Honestly, something like Noivern's gonna come in on that, shrug, and then Hurricane it to death before it can move. That HP is horrible.

I was thinking 105 sp. atk and 115 speed, but that could be right too.

The person on /vp/ who originally posted the screenshot stated that he leveled the Noibat up on the Elite Four Meaning it does NOT explain where the stats magically came from if it was 90 base Also, assuming it's the same as past gens, the Noibat would only have had to battle one or two of...

We need to recalc Noivern's bases and update the OP. There's no way he's running that special attack with no EVs (Screenshotter confirmed no EVs) if he has 90 base.

Source on Protean? Serebii mentioned it, but I fail to see how he could have found a hidden ability without datamining. Also we need to do something with Noivern's base stats, as different screenshots are displaying wildly different distros, particularly in speed and sp. atk

Does Soundproof now act like the other "immunity" abilities (Provides some kind of boost)? Should be easy to test.
