If you edited the IVs in-game with an AR or something, the game won't let you play because their PID/IV combination isn't valid. You either need to make them from scratch, or catch them in-game and train.

Don't think that's the thing. I just tested all of them separately and Sawk is the bad guy that's not allowed. Not sure why though.
 
Ditto cannot breed no eggs group (including itself), it's really not important to breed for Imposter Ditto; as only its HP IV is basically the only thing that matters.
EDIT: nvm thought it copied IVs, but according to bulbapedia it doesn't.

Well what I'm curious about is whether or not you can breed an Impostor Ditto with say a Flash Fire Vulpix and end up with a Drought Vulpix egg. After all, if the Ditto acts as a female there's a real possibility it passes on it's DW ability tag to the child.
 
Hello,

Could anybody tell me how to really get involved into Gen 5 UU? I have been following everything but never really got into the game. I understand some but not all of the game. Where do I start, is there any basic team, anybody who could coach me through? Any special person to follow?

Kind regards,
 
Let's say I had a SporePunch Breloom as a team foundation. If I run a Specially Defensive Scizor (Rankurusu check), who would be a good partner defensively?

According to Serebii that doesn't work; only female DW Pokemon can pass their ability.

But that's the point. When Ditto breeds with a male or genderless pokemon it acts as a female; for all intents and purposes it IS female then. If the passing down of DW abilities keys off of the female having a DW ability, then an Impostor Ditto could theoretically pass it down. I'm wondering if somebody has tried it, is all.

I know what you meant but Serebii says it doesn't, so do some people in the research thread:
Confirmed Breeding a Dream World female parent with any male parent (but not vice versa) has a chance of giving the offspring its respective Dream World Ability. It does not appear that Ditto is considered the female parent for this purpose. (Maverick Hunter, 0mastar\The Shadow Knight, Kaphotics)
 
jellicent.

Hmmmm....sounds good. I'd need to invest in alot of Defense though if he's gonna be partnered with Scizor............maybe...

Thoughts? I know I'll need to be able to take a fair amount of Flamethrowers and Fire Blast for Breloom+Scizor, so the lesser SpD worries me...
 
Skill Link doesn't work with Clamp, because Clamp does not strike many times in a single turn, unlike Bullet Seed or Rock Blast.

Still looking for an answer to my question.
This is napkin math and I might not be 100% correct on the damage formula, but if I'm right...

6 HP / 0 Sp.D Conkeldurr has 352 HP, 166 Sp.D
252 Sp.A + Timid Whimsicott has 253 Sp.A
252 Sp.A + Modest Whimsicott has 278 Sp.A

Timid + no LO = 265 to 311 damage
Timid + LO = 344 to 405 damage (~88.5% OHKO, assuming damage roll is flat and not curved)
Modest + no LO = 290 to 342 damage
Modest + LO = 377 to 444 damage
 
Would a Timid Hurricane (no Specs) from 252 SpA Whimsicott KO a 6 HP Conkeldurr? What about Modest?

If the calculator I used is correct, timid deals 74.43%-88.07% and modest deals 81.82%-96.59%.

Edit: ninja'd by 3 seconds by someone with more detailed information.

Edit2: or over a minute rather. apparently I can't tell time.

Timid + LO = 340 to 399 damage (~81% OHKO, assuming damage roll is flat and not curved)
Modest + no LO = 287 to 337 damage
Modest + LO = 373 to 439 damage
Ah, thank you. I just need to get past the fact my Whimsicott NEEDS Focus Sash...and thanks also melvni.
 
Which brings me to another question, do I need to fix this set? Try to get the gist of what I'm doing, so don't suggest a Stall set or anything.

What is the deal with the legality of dream world pokes? Like it seems that Poison Heal Gliscor is legal but Shadow Tag Chandelure is not. Is there like a list or something anywhere?
 
What happens if you sign up for the Dream World, then start a new game? Can you still transfer poke's from Dream World? What happens to any sleeping Poke's from the previous save?
