Oh wow, you've like SO got Lovrina's personality down.

I just wanted to thank Olie. The battle tower gives out BP so quickly. I reached the 48 points I needed sooner then I would have before. Thanks man.

I don't want to feel better. I want to show the dude that did that to me that a crit psychic is not more luck hax than me hitting myself 5 times in a row.
he's complaining about how he could have won.
his Zapdos was about 50% (HP ice)
he also had tentacruel 100%

I had Bliss 100%
Mix mence with LO about 70%
and Mix ape. 100%

He claimes that a crit psychic won me the match?

WTF? so your bliss used psychic, got a crit and killed zapdos?
it would also do much to tentacruel. And uh... no, you'd have won anyway, barring scarf tentacruel or shit like that.

Edit: I think it's 1/32 chance

I would say yes. But it would be 1/8000+ chance, so you won't find many at all.

It's 1/8192, thankyouverymuch.....
(I've gotten 6 SR Pokemon, all in 3rd Gen, so it's not impossible)


The reason I ask is because some people are thinking it has been coded not to be shiny. From what I've heard, there hasn't been a shiny Darkrai yet (and a lot of people have been trying).
So really I was just wondering about Deoxys. Chances are it's the exact same, different name.
 
I was wondering. I saved before getting Deoxys from the Game Stop event. If I took a Abra with Synchronize. Would that 50% nature thing work?
 
If you receive a pokemon in a trade and you want to EV train it, is it the same as EV training a pokemon that you catch yourself? Since the pokemon that you receive in a trade gain boosted experience, do they also gain extra EVs when compared to a pokemon that you catch yourself?

You EV train as normal. You do not gain any extra EVs for a traded Pokemon.
 
Is it alright to have more than one status effect on your team? E.g. My Wigglytuff has Thunder Wave for sweepers and my Altaria has toxic for walls, while my Mawile has Sing to incapacitate.
 
Got a pretty bad question. I am sure it has been covered before but my search-fu stinks.

Trying to develop a Spore Punching Breloom. So I believe I have to keep my Shroomish to level 45 or something to learn Spore. Is this going to severly hurt my future Breloom as he will see 20 some levels at the stat development of a Shroomish rather then a Breloom.

If this all makes sense of course ;)
 
The stats get recalculated on every level up and when the pokemon evolves so it doesn't matter if you decide to keep it from evolving some levels because all its EVs will be applied in the same way.
 
So when it gains another level after I evolve it, it will readjust the stats to say a lvl46 Breloom rather then a lvl45 Shroomish with one level as a breloom? Or whenever it learns spore?
 
Yeah, that's basically it. It is the way the formula for calculating the stat that makes it that way, the pokemon doesn't actually gain stat points as a steady rate but what it gains is only the difference between the points it should have from one level to another.
The formula is a little more complicated but to put it simply you could say that at level 100 the pokemon has reach 100% of its complete stats and on previous levels it only had a fraction of them.

I know that. That's sleep clause. I was just asking whether it would be useful in a strategy, or would it be hindering in that each Status takes up a moveslot?

That's not really a bad thing. if you run a parahax team however, you would want 2-3 paralysis users, but not in a case like yours.
