I believe that the Spe Evs were originally placed in SpA to help dealing with Garchomp. Then they were moved into Spe as they didn't achieve any important result when placed in other stats. But yeah, Metagross, Skarmory, Scizor and other slow Pkm which have a low investment in Spe are the tagets of the spare 68 Spe Evs on Vaporeon. Btw outspeeding CB Metagross can make the difference between being 2hko'd by it and finishing it off if it's low on health.
Something like a strong fighting type can help Manectric against Pokemon such as Cradily! Spiritomb can be a good partner which takes care of special walls such as Grumpig and Hypno!
If I have a Smeargle in 3rd gen with ability 1, it will NOT have Technician once migrated to 4th gen, as the ability can only change when a Pokémon evolves, right?
Yeah, the actual ability is hard-coded into that specific Pokemon and won't change unless it evolves.
We could test it in the actual game. Of particular interest to me is that it appears that Celebi is the only grass type that can learn Baton Pass, though it's not the only grass type that can know it. The other one would be Leafeon; it would have to learn Baton Pass as a level 36 Eevee. Perhaps someone can correct me if I'm wrong?
I've never played Shoddy, hence my quick suggestion for this course of action.
What are credits? Because I saw this tournament and if you win you get credits from a user.
I don't know how to use the RNG, but should I bother with Lugia (I have SoulSilver)?

I was curious myself so I tested it!
At least from what I've read, it has something to do with said user's Shop in the Wi-Fi forum. I could be wrong, but I believe the credits themselves could be cashed in for prizes in said shop.
Basically, think of credits as a "monetary" system of getting items/services/etc. for doing a certain thing for the user.
Lugia is an awesome Pokemon!

Has everything about RNG!
So does pretty much everything mingot say in that link he posts apply to HGSS?
Yeah, including 2nd post
I was just wondering how much a calm mind or nasty plot actually boosted your special attack (or other boosting moves). I know that they are +1 and +2 but what exactally is a stage boost. Like if I'm using a 307 SpA Infernape and nasty plot up what is my SpA at now, for example.
Hey, I like to use gengar. Now that latias is gone, is there a point to using timid? Can I still outspeed max speed 100s with modest? Is the power worth it?
@Above: +1 = x1.5 +2 = x2.
@Above: +1 = x1.5 +2 = x2.
252 Speed EV + Speed boosting nature on 100 base Speed >(is just barely higher than)> 252 Speed EV + non-Speed boosting nature on 110 base Speed
I say still use Timid.
Ah, cool! Thanks for checking it out for us!
Aren't the increased stages all in 50% increments? Like this?
- 150%
- 200%
- 250%
- 300%
- 350%
- 400%
I once had an issue with trying to view recorded videos on the GTS, but it eventually went away by itself. For the most part, though, I can't say I've had this problem.
Are you able to make trades with individuals? Conceivably someone on these forums could help you out.
X in all of these are your stats.
+6: 4x
+5: 3.5x
+4: 3x
+3: 2.5x
+2: 2x
+1: 1.5x
+0: 1x
-1: .66x
-2: .5x
-3: .4x
-4: .33X
-5: .2857x
-6: .25x
If you don't want to remember that, imagine multiplying your stat by 2/2 if there aren't any stat changes. If you get a stat boost, change the numerator of the multiplier so that you are adding the level of that boost (so if you use Swords Dance 3 times, your stat is +6, so the multiplier it (2+6)/2, or 4x).
If the stat is reduced, add to the denominator instead. (e.g: Leer 6 times = -6, or 2/(2+6), which is 2/8 or 1/4x)
Skymin_Flower
It's Seed Flare time.
Yes they increase in 50% increments.
The % of decreasing stages are:
-1: 0.66%
-2: 0.5%
-3: 0.4%
-4: 0.33%
-5: 0.285
-6: 0.25

There's not enough information to tell there, by a large magnitude. A really good hack cannot be detected via any sort of hack check; if you want to be able to catch a sloppier hack, then knowing things like stats at level 100 (use a lv. 100 wifi battle), characteristic, and gender would help the calculation out; it might also be marginally useful to know the date it was caught (according to the ingame information). (Also, hack-checking via an Action Replay is much more accurate than trying to do it with information visible in-game.)
The information you gave implies that it's a wild Machoke from Rock Tunnel, which therefore must have been caught on 1F in encounter slot 8 or 10. Those slots are both rare enough to hit that it's quite possible that an imperfect hack would be detected if all the information were available.
Skymin_Flower
It's Seed Flare time.
Looks pretty legit to me! It is possible to get a level 14 Machoke, albeit very rare, and then you simply have to trade it to evolve! Of course it could still be hacked (any Pokemon you get off the GTS could be) but its looking pretty legit.
