Everything that matters, at least. Gender, nature (though it doesn't matter with an Everstone), ability, color, IVs...Is everything set in stone, or only the IVs?

Could before, ya know. It's not like it was impossible to get good IVs in earlier generations.Just bred a quint-Vivillon using this method. I'm so happy that breeders' Pokemon can now match RNGers'. :D
I have a 31/31/31/31/24/31 Xerneas Modest, took me 2 days of SR. You just need a Synch.Pokémon XY has so many good things going for it and now this little bit of info has been revealed...
I wish that legends got more than 3 perfect IVs though cos we can't breed them. What is the chances of getting a flawless legend in this gen? has anyone got one yet?
Think of it like this. It's like playing coin flipping and you get to pick which coins to use before the game. You can pick coins with two heads, two tails, or a normal coin. You want to pick coins with two heads and avoid coins with two tails. With IVs it's the same principle (which is to say, avoid using two parents that have the same stat with imperfect IVs). Destiny Knot will still pick a stat to be determined at random, but the other stats will come out as always 31 if both parents have 31 IVs in those stats.Regarding breeding, not sure if this has been tested.
But if the parents have the same IV's are they automatically passed down as part of Destiny Knot inheritance?
Yeah you're gonna have to clarify what big root does for breeding.Then just attach big root and everstone and hatch eggs like no tomorrow.
My bad, for some reason I wrote big root instead. I mean the destiny knot and it passes down 5 random iv's among both parents.Yeah you're gonna have to clarify what big root does for breeding.
Out of curiosity, have you actually tried breeding in XY already? I have a friend who has 3 quint-flawless pokémon with dozens of good parents in three days. It really IS that easy.It's still a pretty mixed back because even though you get 5 IVs from parents, getting the first mon with 5 flawless IVs in each breeding group, or even just the first mon with 5 flawless IVs is something of a nightmare. Still, I suppose this means when you breed 5/6 IV'd Pokes you don't have to recross that threshold over and over again which is quite nice.
I concur. They really threw several bones for competitive breeding in this game. I've never tried for perfect or flawless Pokemon in any previous game because it was too time consuming, but yesterday I managed a 31/31/31/x/31/31 Magikarp within 60 minutes. It helped a lot that Magikarp eggs hatch so quickly (and with the hatching O-power, it takes less than 2 laps of the breeding bike path to hatch a single egg), but the +2 perfect IVs from Pokemon at the Friend Safari and the added mechanics really make things beautiful.Out of curiosity, have you actually tried breeding in XY already?

After you max out your style in Lumiose City and get all 16 other O-Powers from Mr.Where do you get the hatching O-power? I've been looking all over for it.
Finding a 31/31/31/31/31/31 ditto in the safari is still very rare. It is a 1 in 1048576 chance. (1/32^4) The best way is to find multiple ditto and chain breed until you get two clawwitzers with perfect iv's in 3 or 4. Always use the destiny knot to breed more than 1 perfect IV. The power items are obsolete now because ditto's with 2 perfect iv's are readily available.Okay, so I'm new to this whole breeding thing, so somebody help a poor noob out...
I have a modest Synchronize Kirlia. I used it to catch a modest Clawitzer.
I need a Ditto with perfect IV's. I can find a Ditto at a friend safari which will always at least have two.
From there, I give the Clawitzer an Everstone and Ditto the Destiny Knot. Is that it? Where are all these other perfect IV's that people seem to be getting coming from? Do I just need to get lucky finding a Ditto somewhere?
Talk to the purple-haired NPC inside the Pokemon center in Kiloude city. He tells you which stats are perfect. And you can use old stat calculators for Pokemon whose stats haven't changed, or if you really want, manually calculate the IVs by hand by solving for IV in the base stat formula.This looks promising however how is everyone verifying the iv's? is ther a iv calculator for gen 6

I simply go have a talk with the Stats Judge in Kiloude City, as it takes no effort in spotting Pokémon with perfect IVs and distill them to perfection. Extra points if you have friend safari Dittos, who almost always come with two perfect Ivs.This looks promising however how is everyone verifying the iv's? is ther a iv calculator for gen 6
You breed your initial Clawitzer with your ditto until the baby clawitzer (1) inherits the 2 31 IVs from the ditto.Okay, so I'm new to this whole breeding thing, so somebody help a poor noob out...
