Sounds good to me. But why not Giga Drain on the defensive set? Stab and heal. Over Sludge Bomb or Synthesis.

Could if you wanted to, forgot to slash it but stronger, 30% poison chance, and with the introduction of fairies, just deemed it the more viable STAB option while also dealing decent damage to incoming Fire-types. Giga Drain alone isn't enough recovery especially with no investment, won't be hitting hard unless you want it to hurt Rotom-W.
Ok, ive been breeding honedge:
31 / 31 / x / 31 / 31 / 0
x / 31 / 31 / 31 / 31 / 0 (both quiet)
Hunting a 31 / 31 / 31 / 31 / 31 / x
I have getting unlucky (according to a calc) and after about 50 eggs, i havent got what i want. Instead, i have git a few 4 31 Iv's with 0 in spe. Are those worth anything? The 0 in speed was on the origonal and got passed through randomly.
Its ok, i just got a 30 / 31 / 31 / 31 / 31 / 0
31 / 31 / x / 31 / 31 / 0

I know that the earlier thread on Volcanion, Diancie, and Hoopa - the unreleased Kalos legendary trio - was closed due to lack of information. Now that their (rough) stats and some moves have been leaked, would it be okay to open a new thread on them? (Of course it's possible that the leak is fake and I'm just getting overexcited).
If it was up to me I wouldn't allow it. We literally have 0 confirmed information other than the fact that they exist in the game's code.
212 if it's timid max speed Greninja, which I think is what generally gets run. 208 if it was level 100 battles.
Lots of Pokemon can only get Stealth Rock from the tutor. Machamp and Conkeldurr both seriously appreciate getting Knock Off from the tutor as well; it makes AV Conk especially a sheer nightmare to switch in on. Really there's too many to list.
A special attacking Sylveon does appreciate having Hyper Voice, too, for what it's worth; the only way to do this is to teach a HA Eevee Hyper Voice then transfer it.
No.
Speaking of Conkeldurr, should I go 252 HP/252 Attack for AV, or 252 SpD/252 Attack? Also, on a Timid Victini, is V Create still the preferred option, or am I better off running something else?
For an offensive TR Reuniclus, I believe the preferred nature is Quiet.
252 SpD / 252 Atk
Quiet and 0 speed IV; Reuniclus has to hit as hard as possible before the Trick Room runs out. Only CM Reuniclus runs maximum defense and it is not wise to have both CM and TR on one set.
I think there's more information now though. Does this count as confirmed information?
EDIT: There's one for each of the trio, this is just an example.
Why does gengar run 4HP evs. Shouldn't he have an odd number of HP so he can sub 4 times?
yes
When using Foul Play, your own Atk stat isn't used for calculation. Is it safe to assume that using a -Atk nature wouldn't weaken its damage output as compared to a neutral Atk nature or a +Atk nature?
That is correct.
Those have been out for ages, did you really only just hear about them?
The problem with them is that:
- we don't know their whole move pools
- we don't know their abilities
- we can only make rough guesses about their stats
It's different from when BW started and we knew all about keldeo, genesect, etc because we could decompile the game. We can't do that with 3DS games (yet) so any "discussion" will just end up being "I hope it learns this" or "I hope this is its ability so it can do this" and so on. There's really nothing to discuss.
The hack detection is better than it was in december but it's still pretty easy to trick.
Event legendaries are a pain to transfer though, especially if they've been edited. (Apparently it even blocks legit shiny WISHMKR jirachis)
It blocked my 100% legit extremespeed linoone from box. That is just really annoying. I couldn't transfer my shaymin either, which is a bit more understandable as I glitched to get to the island, but it's still not technically hacked! With all the reports of actual hacked pokemon getting through, this is just beyond annoying.
Anyone else get their linoones blocked?
Anyone else get their linoones blocked?
I didn't, but something even sillier is happening to me. It happens that I've obtained all event IV gen legendaries through hacking the event in-game (I've hacked to get the event, I haven't insert a code and... puf... wild Arceus appears), and it does let me pass them, bar Arceus, which, for strange reasons and unlike Manaphy Darkai etc... is considered not legal. Other example: my event Mew isn't getting through. Also, it appears that no Jirachi manage to get to X/Y.
