Is easier to RNG, hell even to SR, cause you don't have to purposely lose to N to see if you hit the right poke, even saves time when you got the wrong one, cause you can see the EV and deduce what seed you hit more easily them all that previously jazz.
If, and only if, he/she RNG...
I can't help but think it would still be faster than catching 720 Pokémon...
 
From what I have heard, if you have all of your 8 boxes filled when you wish to fight Zekrom/Reshiram as well as your party full the pokemon respective to your version will not be forcibly caught, and it flees to the Dragonspire tower
I thought the same he posted. Just 8 boxes. Should I release some or am I stuck with having to fill 24 boxes now? Will it keep increasing? What's the max? About to give up, urhgjggg.

I know it's impossible to get a shiny, but I can't RNG now. I'm sure video tutorials will come out eventually.

You'll have to fill all 24. 720 minus whatever you already caught. Sure it wouldn't be easier to just learn to RNG now? It's not that complicated. Alternately, you could do what I did and do a normal playthrough to check out all the post-game content, then start a new one to RNG the legendaries.
 
You can still RNG for them just by checking the stats can you not? You know what the stats should look like at that point so just make sure they're the same and you should be set.

There's a lot of ambiguity at that level without access to the Hidden Power checker, judge, and so on, and you can't see nature in battle, so you have to lose the subsequent battle before you can check it with any reasonable degree of accuracy. Still possible, but it takes longer than your average stationary legendary (of course, the others don't require you to fill up your entire PC either).
 
A question...related to a trade...would someone be kind enough as to trade me the Power items? (i.e. Power Brace, etc.) If this is the wrong sopt to post this, could someone tell me the link?
 
to icyMan28: What voodoo said, combined to the fact that seeing the actual stats of the pokemon, helps you calibrate to reach the right seed, like i said previously even the wrong spread is important so that way you can know how far you have been for the wanted target time.

Do you know if there's someone who has it up for trade on the forum? I really want to see the descriptions lol.
Dont quote me in that but apparently user "Bond697" have one, from what i heard in the wi-fi forum.
 
It's been awhile since I've played but I'm trying to get back into it. Can someone break it down for me, provide links on where to EV train in Black/White?

Provided you're reasonably certain you were roughly near your seed it shouldn't be too difficult, though, right? There's not that much ambiguity at level 50; if, for instance, you get Zekrom with stats of 175/187/140/126/120/110 you can be certain it's Adamant with either a 30 or a 31 in every stat (and if that isn't your seed, it should at least be good enough to keep anyway!).
 
I need help with IVs/Hidden Power. I cant find a calculator or anything, or one that "works"
Does anyone know where an accurate one is.? For example; I wanna give Metagross HP Water (just an example) is there a place/chart where I can see where to put the IVs to get power 70 hidden power.?

Im talknig about 5th Gen, btw.
 
As I recall, this is one situation where the computer cheats. Against a human player, they won't have the option of switching out until they start a turn with your Lapras not on the field; so you can safely switch out of the last turn of Perish Song, leaving them to be trapped and die. Against a computer player, if you switch that last turn, they'll take their action as though you've already switched and they'll also switch out. At least, I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that's what happens. They might of course have fixed it for B&W; you could ask someone to test it in the research thread...


Wait... trapping moves only work when the Pokemon with the trap move is on the field?

You can't just switch out right away and they'll still be trapped for 4-5 turns...?

FUUUUU-

Can anyone confirm?

or if your to lazy to calculate it you can use Pokemon Onlines Team builder.
 
i new 2 the whole competetive battling and i wanna kno wat does RNG mean?

I can't believe that username wasnt taken.
Anyway its random number generator.
More specifically in the context of competitive battling, it means taking advantage of the way the RNG creates numbers in order to get a particular set of stats on a Pokémon you catch or breed. In other words, it's the most efficient way to get flawless IVs (31 in everything).

There's also a RNG in the damage calculation formula.
 
What's the most used tyranitar set?
I've been on the smogon server and PO server, and I see a lot of MixTars.

On the po server click the stats link at the top of the chat, it shows every tier, click the one you play and you get usage stats for every mon - click a mon for set usage.
 
Sooo question...how does one go about getting Dark Pulse and Earth Power on Hydreigon? They're listed in his egg moves but no possible parents other then its own line...

It can learn Dark Pulse through Arbok or Seviper, and Earth Power through Garchomp. It can't learn both at once, unless I missed something.
 
I was told that the way wide lens and zoom lens work, is by taking a percent of the move's base accuracy. Is the way they work any different in gen V?
Do they apply like Hone Claws, as a simple boost to accuracy, do they provide a flat accuracy increase althogether, or do they really just increase each move's accuracy?

For example with Focus Blast, how would each lens effect it's overall accuracy? Because the way I was told it worked in Gen IV, it would max out at 84, and I really, REALLY hope that isn't the case.



Err, another question too; is there a potential reader dude in Black/White, to tell you if your guys are relatively superior, outstanding, ect, and if so(which I dearly hope), where is he?
 
Remember how there was a trick to evolve trade evolution pokemon in platinum? Well, is there any way to evolve pokemon like gurdurr and boldore through trade without a friend in black and white?
