Thank you, sorry guys
And by the way, RNG is a way of taking advantage of the way the game's Random Number Generator works in order to catch shinies/good IV'd Pokémon. It doesn't directly modify the game – rather, you need to turn the game on at a specific time (among other things, like holding down a button) in order to get the Pokémon you want. It's much harder than it sounds; I don't know much about it besides the basic definition. If you want something more in-depth, there are some threads about it in the post CD_North linked you to and here.
RNG is theoretically possible for X and Y, but the process for it hasn't been discovered yet (and you can breed/TSV hatch perfect Pokémon pretty easily anyway, so why bother), so currently it's only for Generation V and below.
Thanks for the help :>
Edit: I dont have a compatible wifi connection for regular DS and I wanted to trade the Giratina over for Defog. Is the move really worth it?
If you were trying to breed a larvitar in a heavy ball (or a different ball) on the 6th gen and if you can't teach it fire punch or ice punch if you want to give it a moveset for it's mega form, what move would you teach it in replace for the fire punch/ice punch?
Fire fang, Ice fang, or something else?

You could go mixed and teach it fire blast and ice beam with a sassy nature
Why Sassy?
How is a compatible Wi-Fi connection important to whether or not it gets Defog?

For specially defensive without having either attack lowered..you could could also go brave or even hasty but generally you want tyranitar to check birdspam
Assuming you're talking about for the DDance set, Fire/Ice Punch would be okay, but they become a bit redundant compared to STAB. What other options does TTar have? I wouldn't run the elemental beams (I tried, they do nothing).
EDIT: If you're running a different set, then you probably want Stealth Rock.

Fire and ice punch arent compatible with kalos born pokes...theyre tutor moves
you dont need wifi for that, just 2 ds's

Diabolico yes go ice fang...ran some calcs..ice beam is a bad idea
t tar resists talonflame's stabs. Its generally one of the upsides to using tyranitar (defensively)
Sorry to be essentially spamming this board but apparently I also have a shiny rash Giratina. Ball?
Alright. Thank you.
Birdspam refers to the fact that Flying Types are among the most common attacks in the game, between Talonflame, Mega Pinsir, and a few other Pokemon, since Flying is a type with relatively few good resistors, with Tyranitar among them.
Tyranitar is useful because he deters a Flying type from switching in as long as he can 2HKO them, but sometimes needs to take a Flying attack to do so..

If you already have it I would assume its caught in one that cant be changed without hacking
Ahhh. I see. Thanks.
I'm so done with myself today I can't even. I'm just gonna go.
Looking for quiet female lux ball/non-pokeball honedge spitbacks or 6iv-ish, Spd. As close to 0 as possible
