I was thinking about Air Cutter, Haze, Roar, Reflect and Tailwind. Any suggestions?
 
All AR codes affect legitimacy, since you're modifying the game's code directly with an external device. It's best to tell people what AR codes you've used before trading with them to see if they'll accept your offer in any case. Some people don't care while others will, it's all a matter of preference.
 
On the Wifi board I notice many traders use and accept the Quick Hatch and Check IV codes, but the use of the Instant Egg code is generally never accepted.
 
I know it's a rule to discuss how to use AR / when to use it directly on the site, but can someone link me to the exact wording?

I was under the impression that it's perfectly okay to talk about what kinds of AR a trader will accept, or what traders use, just not how to use or get said codes...
 
If you use the TM modifier to teach a pokemon a move, it will not be detectable, as long as you don't teach it an illegal move or illegal combination of moves.

The Policy on Hacking

Chris, that's the thread in the Wifi Forum that lays out the rules regarding AR and Pokesav.
 
Sticky Hold users (Gastrodon) are immune to Trick. STAB Earthquake can 2HKO Jirachi.

You could try something like Gengar to take the Trick and with an immunity to Body Slam it may be benefitted by the Choice Scarf.

Otherwise, just have Trick target something that doesn't mind only using one attack and likes Speed.
 
A joke, mate. Personally if I was certain he was going to Trick, and not something like U-turn, switch in a Choice user of your own. Almost any Choice user will be able to benefit from Choice Scarf, which makes them act more as revenge killers than wall-breakers. Dugtrio would be the perfect choice of switch in as you can get rid of his Jirachi there and then, and then use your ScarfTrio later on to trap his Heatran, Jolteon, whatever.
 
The problem is that Jirachi still has a Choice item to Trick again later. Gastrodon is a good Jirachi counter anyway, and isn't actually that bad, though it's a bit of a stretch to use Gastrodon just for Trick...
 
Apparently my username has/ begins with a lowercase "s". Would anybody happen to know howcto change it to an uppercase "S"?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
 
Lets say hypothetically I have a resttalker who gets tricked a choice item. If I'm locked into sleep talk, will my other moves still be used?

Also, if a priority move (bullet punch, aqua jet, those) is chosen in sleep talk, does it just work as a normal move? Your sleep talk won't activate first?
 
Currently attempting a Sunny Day team, cant think of a solid lead not weak to fire. any suggestions?
 
Ok just read that BL and UU will be combined for testing BL pokemon. When will this be happening? And is there a thread where how the testing will work? Thank you.

Not sure about first question. However, if you are slower than your opponent and use Sleep Talk, any priority move will go last.
