Alright, finally got Wi-Fi working, any tips for finishing the Scenario (pokemon for E4 etc) and breeding Pokémon for trading/competitive play?

Hey, was wandering if anyone would help me come up with two additions to my VCG Team. So far I'm pretty much decided on a sandstorm team with Hippowdon and Garchomp to start. So any ideas on the other two team mates? Tyranitar is banned along with Rotom and most of the Legendaries except for the legendary trio's and Heatran.
For a Mild, level 47 Giratina-O, what stats guarantee 31 IVs? Also, is Mild viable, or should I run all the way back and try to find a Lonely/Naughty Abra?
Yes.
After fighting stall for long periods of time, as well as using Mind's stall team for tests, stall can work. However, stall isn't something you can just pick up without some experience in it, as it differs from the usual offensive pace. Also, be very careful of tricky Pokemon such as Darkrai, Mewtwo, Dialga, and Giratina-O, as all four can cause massive damage to stall teams.
Is outrage a TM? If so, what number is it?
No, it's not; it's a Move Tutor move in Platinum, though.
I think Ill have to do this way
But, does this pokemon need to be random shiny?
(Ive seen this in a lot of other sites =o)
Well, your starters just bend over and die to Ice-type attacks, so you'd best have some backup Pokes to take their weaknesses. I'm thinking a Steel type to resist Sandstorm, ice, and dragon moves directed at Garchomp. Another problem I see is that Garchomp (and Hippowdon, to some extent) will miss having their Ground STAB in Earthquake, since neither will be immune to it. Since you want a Sandstorm team, Hippowdon should lead with possibly an Aerodactyl. Hippowdon can then freely Earthquake, while Aerodactyl will provide you with the valuable Taunt, which helps with the furious set-ups in Doubles. Garchomp can then be your backup sweeper waiting, paired with maybe a Heatran? *shrug* I just realized suggesting that Aerodactyl just added to your ice weakness. XD
If it's using Pokesav, it doesn't have to be shiny. It just has to be caught by you.
How do the honey trees work? Do I just slather them with honey and then wait? How long do I have to wait?
What does CMT mean? I keep seeing people use it in the Wi-Fi forum. O_o
It stands for "check my thread"; usually people say it when they're asking people to look at their threat in Wi-Fi, if they mention wanting a Pokemon or something that they have in it.
GTS cloning won't work for me anymore on Pearl... Whenever I go back in to withdraw (after the reset and without the clonee in my party, meaning the cloning didn't work in the first place) I get a message saying 'X was not traded.' The clonee then appears in my party again. Any explanations?
In Platinum, is the glitch where you can see an Egg's Nature without it hatching(Put in box and switch at right time) still work?
Like Macle said, you can find it at Turnback Cave in the old place it was at in Diamond and Pearl and have completely new stats independent from it's earlier encounter.
