Yeah it's a lot easier this way, I use a frisk trevenant with thief for that. Saves me a lot of time GangGreen
Thank you all!!
Now LF: Someone to EV Train 2 pokes for me:
PM me if you can
yes lol
Over 20 for any nature that hinders a defensive stat, I'd say.
I do :) [Togetic/Porygon/Ditto]. PM me to arrange pickup if you want it.
(Unless you're just asking about whether people have them... Then yes.)
I am requesting one. The Ditto is good.
Though I am kinda surprised anyone has them.
I have a bunch of Pichus for trade. ALL Have Lightning Rod, come in Heal Balls, and the following egg moves: Fake Out, Wish, Encore, Volt Tackle

Does Altaria function well as a special attacker or no? Furthermore, what is the projected set for Mega Altaria?
DDance/Return(?)/EQ/Dragon Claw?
Hyper Voice/Dragon Pulse/?/?/
(Special attacker if viable)
DDance/Return(?)/EQ/Dragon Claw?
Hyper Voice/Dragon Pulse/?/?/
(Special attacker if viable)
Reposting.
CMT for the 6IVs Modest one please.
I think you should be using these for Mega Altaria:
Physical Altaria
Dragon Dance
Return
Earthquake
Roost
Special Altaria
Hyper Voice
Draco Meteor
Fire Blast
Roost
Dragon moves have redundant coverage with Fairy attacks , so I don't think weaker ones like Dragon Claw are useful. Draco Meteor is there for Poison types, which Earthquake hits if you want to go physical. Not sure if Dragon Pulse would be better, but I wouldn't think so. I'm not really good at battling or anything, so these probably aren't the best, but they seem pretty decent on paper to me.

Gen V tutor move. Wait for ORAS tutors.
So what other good moves would go with jolly mamoswine? I have earthquake, icicle spear, icicle crash, and ??? what should I have?
Ice Shard, Stealth Rock are the most prominent ones.
Minor thing, but the ORAS tutors are confirmed to have most of the same moves as Gen 5 offered, so you could breed a Gen 6 one and tutor it when those come out.
It really depends on what you are using it for and what it needs to kill. Stone Edge has good coverage with Earthquake but its accuracy makes me sad; Ice Shard is yummy priority but it's not particularly powerful and you also already have 2 Ice-type moves; Stealth Rock is a useful move but might not work well with your set if you're going for an offensive approach. If it were me, I'd probably go with Stone Edge for the coverage and added power, but Stealth Rock might be better depending on what purpose Mamoswine serves your team.
EDIT: Or do a Tutor when ORAS rises. I don't know those lists off the top of my head.
I am going to choice scarf it. so what moves besides ice shard, icicle spear, and earthquake?
I'd drop Icicle Spear for Ice Shard and keep Icicle Crash, or go Naive and use Freeze-Dry to help handle Water types.
If you want something right now, then probably Stone Edge. Waiting until the Tutors arrive will give you access to other moves. Superpower sticks out the most, but Iron Head could potentially maybe possibly have some utility for Fairyslaying if you want.
You could use Freeze Dry if you reeeaaallllllly wanted to, but I don't think a 70 BP Special move will do a whole lot coming off Base 70 Special Attack, even if it has STAB and has a type advantage over Waters. I'm pretty sure Mamoswine could usually do more to Waters with an Earthquake or something, unless the water is something like Gyarados or lolMantine.
