Howdy,

This may sound odd, but I have an actual in-game question :P -- What ARE the requirements for the trainer stars?

+ Beat E4 (Done, Confirmed)
+ Get 50 flags (Done, Confirmed)
+ Win one (not all) master rank contest. (Done, Confirmed)
+ Complete Pokedex ex. event legendaries (Not done yet, but I'm willing to accept that)
+ ?

Half the sites say "herf derf 100 battle streak" and the other say "durp hurp all gold frontier symbols".

And a corollary from the previous question: if it is "herf derf 100 battle streak", is this a) exclusively the battle tower, and b) exclusively single 3v3 streak (not doubles)?

I ask here because people have actually accomplished the herf derf 100 streak in both categories. :P

Cheers,
SnapperTT
General consensus around here (and the official guide) says "herf derf 100 battle streak". Only Battle Tower. Don't know if you can do doubles to get it though.
 
Thanks, guys.
I have another question, a EV training one.
I don't think any guides cover this.
If my Lucario (Who I'm EV training) is holding a EXP share, and someone else is doing the battles, and the other pokemon is holding a macho brace, do they both get boosted EV's?

Only the Pokemon holding the Macho Brace gets boosted EVSs. Lucario will only get the normal EVs the Pokemon that you faint yields.
 
(didnt get to rwad the answer to my post before this thread was made so ill ask it again) i see stockpileopotamos with stockpile and slack off, but those moves are from breeding with 2 different pokemon. how is it possible to get moves from multiple breeding pokemon onto the one i want? ive tried several ways and i can never get both breeding moves on the same pokemon
 
I can't connect to any Netbattle Supremacy servers. Every time I click start battling no servers show up after a minute it gives some downtime notice. Does this happen to anyone else?

Hippo = Ground egg group.

Smeargle = Ground egg group

Just get a male Smeargle to Sketch those moves and breed it with your female Hippo.
 
In-game question actually: Is there a guide (with move combos) etc. on the Hearthome contests? I've looked for one but I can't seem to find one.

I don't think that there are move combos for Super Contests. They removed Jam in the 4th gen, so they probably took away combos too. If you happen to need some for RSE, I can tell you them.

And since I am posting anyways...

The D/P guidebook volume 2 says what all moves do in contests, and Serebii does too. Just use basic appeal moves and the moves that give you bonuses for going first or last. "Increased voltage added to the performance score" is also useful.
 
I asked this on another Pokemon forum, and no one was sure.

If I give my Flinchkiss a Razor Fang, does Air Slash flinch 70% or 80% of the time?

Thanks in advance!
 
I can't help but think this was asked before, but I don't remember the answer, so I have to ask it again to make sure:

Earlier today, I was watching two of my friends play together in the Battle Tower. Both of them were playing Platinum. They battled in 2v2 together and got 8 BP each when they were done.

By any chance would it be possible to do this between Platinum and Diamond or Pearl, or do they have to be the same (two Platinums or two Diamond/Pearls)? I was wondering if I could combine teams between my Pokemon from Pearl and Platinum to both gain a lot of BP.

With Diamond and Pearl, you can only do it in the Multi-Battle option of the Battle Tower, the far left counter, and it's only local wireless.

In Platinum, you can get on Wi-Fi with a friend and participate in each of the Frontier's facilities.

Between Platinum and D/P, you would just use the Multi-Battle counter.
 
Are you saying Smogon is wrong?

"Moves that already have a flinch chance in the above list do gain an additional chance to flinch when the user holds Razor Fang."

Smogon is wrong elsewhere as well. Smogon's page on choice items lists how they behave when trick/switcheroo'd as they did when it was glitched on shoddy, not how they actually behave (though trick and switcheroo list the proper behavior).
 
Assuming Razor Fang works like King's Rock, the entry is correct. In general, it's true, but there are some exceptions to when it activates even if a move has a flinch potential.

And, if there are any errors on our pages; could you guys post in the appropriate C&C thread (yeah I'm talking to you wildfire393!)? It would take me (or another site staff) a matter of minutes to fix it, if we just knew what was wrong (wildfire, PM me what is wrong with the entries - or post it in the C&C objective changes thread since I don't see the problem but I'm probably just missing it).
