Is The pokemon dream world the only Way to get a drought ninetales and a drizzle politoed? Or there is a Way more simple to get one. Because reaching 10,000pts in DM in f*** long.
 
For the longest time, since the release of DW, it has never worked. Recently though, the DW has decided to open itself up and actually let me use it so I don't know much about it. So, my questions are:
How many pokemon (to wish for)/items are we allowed to have stored up before we our pokemon wake up? It seems that after a certain amount of times going through the Island of Dreams, nothing ever shows up.
Also, how many total garden beds can we acquire?

Perhaps you recently updated your Flash player. I couldn't get the DW to load on someone else's computer until I updated Flash.

If you're asking how many Pokémon and items you can get in one session, it's as many as you can get before the 1-hour time limit expires or the game stops giving them to you. I've found that you generally get 5-7 trips through the different areas per session before Pokémon and items stop appearing. If you're asking how many Pokémon you can have on the Friend Board or how many items you can have in the Treasure Chest, it's 10 and 20 respectively. However, once you make a wish at the Tree of Dreams, the bridge to the Island of Dreams won't appear for the rest of that session (and until you wake your Pokémon up), so the only way to get more than 1 on the Friend Board is via a special promotion. You can have up to 5 garden beds.
 
Cloned Pokémon are indistinguishable from the original, which is why they are considered legitimate. It's not possible to tell whether a legitimate Pokémon was caught/bred or is a clone of another one. This is because cloning copies the mon exactly, including everything that makes it legal. The AR does not leave any imprint because it's making an exact copy of the legitimate mon and not modifying the end result in any way, kind of like when you copy your video game save to another save slot. It's the exact same thing, just that there are two of them now. Think of cloning as a tool that just cuts out an extra step of having to rebreed/catch/train the exact mon over again.

That said, you are perfectly within your right to consider a cloned Pokémon hacked if you want to. Everybody has different standards on what they consider legal or not. (For example, there are many people who consider RNG manipulation cheating or even hacking.) Just know that you won't be able to check whether a mon is an original or a clone and if that's important to you, you would probably be better off hand catching, breeding, and raising your own mons.

Oh darn, looks like I won't be able to trade for a legit Jirachi then. Thanks for providing your opinion Shining Kestral. I really wanted to hear someone else's thoughts on the matter. I can't consider clones legit simply because my definition of legit is caught or bred in game without the use of an external device to alter the game's code. And well it sounds like an AR would do just that. But yes you are right about different people having different standards.

Since you wanted to hear multiple opinions, I'll put my 2 cents in. I consider anything done with an AR or other external device that you connect to your game to be illegitimate. Therefore, I consider a cloned Pokémon illegitimate if it was cloned using an AR. There are two glitches that can be used to clone Pokémon without using an AR - a very easy one in Emerald, and a more difficult one in D/P (but the latter doesn't work on Pokémon with a Classic Ribbon since you can't upload them to the GTS). No cloning glitch has been discovered so far in 5th gen (it's currently the only gen without a cloning glitch). Therefore, it is impossible to legitimately (by my definition) clone Pokémon with a Classic Ribbon or Pokémon that were bred/caught in 5th gen. I'm guessing the Jirachi you want is the GameStop/Wi-Fi one, which comes with the Classic Ribbon. You can clone the WISHMKR Jirachi in Emerald or D/P, but since it can't be RNG'd, you'd be very hard-pressed to find one with good stats.
 
What is the ordinary reason for, in the Dream World, Pokemon just not showing up? I can't get any sparkling areas for items, or shaking areas for Pokemon. Everything is completely barren. Does this have to do with not entering it for a long time?
 
gastrodon. landorus.

gastrodon of course, but landorus, no. one Hydro pump and you are dead. Tornadus is best in rain(though you must be wary of thunder.) as for the oriinal queston, the 4x steels(scizor, ferro) benefit most, and maggy gets fire resistance and 100% thunder in rain.

hydro pump isnt an electric move...

Well, often going back and forth gives you pokemon and items, albeit a bit uncommon, though not rare. But if it's because of not entering for a long time, I don't know. Probably not.
 
Lets say I have a Hariyama with flame orb, it activates then switch it with something and it uses heal bell. I know Hariyama will be status-free, but will i get burned again next turn, or is it 1 time use like sash?
 
If a move like Skill Swap or Worry Seed is used on Regigigas before its Slow Start ends, will its halved stats be fixed on the spot, or will they stay halved forever?
 
the correct question would be: is Lilligant usable at all in OU? while it has quiver dance to boost its already decent SpA and Spe stats its limited movepool makes it a pretty poor choice when compared to other grass Pokemon such as Celebi, Breloom, Virizion etc. So, to answer your question: no, it doesn't need sun to work, but it's not the best grass type, nor the best QD user, in OU.

Yeah, I personally am not a fan of Lilligant. If you want to use him in OU, use him in a sun team as a supporter, with Sleep Powder / Healing Wish / Leaf Storm / Hidden Power Rock. I could explain this set myself, but I'll just quote Katakiri:

549.png

Kalle Demos (Lilligant) (F) @ Life Orb
Trait: Chlorophyll
EVs: 252 SAtk / 64 SDef / 192 Spd

Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk)
- Sleep Powder
- Healing Wish
- Leaf Storm
- Hidden Power [Rock]


Roserade's little sister. I don't even know where to start about this Pokemon. This team could not even function without Lilligant. There's just no replacing her because no other Pokemon can do what she can do for the team. I'll just start with the basics. Lilligant is usually my lead and for good reason. She can OHKO all other opposing Weather leads (except Abomasnow) and Sleep Powder their common switch-ins. After a Sleep Powder, that's usually Ninetales' cue to switch-in. With the popularity of Tyranitar and the amount of players that seem to forget that Tyranitar does get OHKO'd by a Lilligant/Roserade/Exeggutor/Tangrowth Leaf Storm, I almost just get free wins from Sand teams, especially since Lilligant is never known to run Leaf Storm anyway. When I take out their Weather Starter on turn 1, that's it. Excadrill becomes too slow, Starmie gets entirely shafted by Snorlax, Vaporeon becomes laughable, and the list goes on.

"Okay, so what? Tyranitar can just switch out to-" To what? Heatran? Latios? Volcarona in Sand? Snorlax OHKOs them all and just shrugs off their attacks due to his Special Defensive bulk. The great thing about using Leaf Storm is that Lilligant not only OHKOs Tyranitar, but she OHKOs all of the common faster Sandstorm Pokemon. Gliscor, Garchomp, Excadrill, Landorus? All OHKOd by Leaf Storm. Pokemon like Ferrothorn & Scizor that resist Grass STAB, will have to deal with Sleep Powder the next turn so they're not even a truly safe switch-in without a Lum Berry. Espeon is OHKO'd or at the most 2HKO'd by Leaf Storm and ruined by Snorlax. Xatu loses a great chunk of his HP from Leaf Storm, easily bringing him into HP Rock's KO range even at -2 in Sp.Atk.

Now you might ask "No Quiver Dance?! What is this?!" Well, it's the fact Leaf Storm makes Quiver Dance nearly pointless and Healing Wish is far too good to pass up. Having a Full Restore on the team at the cost of just one moveslot is invaluable. With Sleep Powder, a 140 Base Power attack from 350 Sp.Atk, and a Full Restore coming from 556 speed in Sunlight, Lilligant can completely change the tide of battle against nearly any foe.

you can only make 6 trips a day to the isle, from the 7th trip and onward you won't encounter anything at all.
 
For a Scarf Flygon, is there any replacement for Outrage? The power is nice, but the confusion really sucks, and not knowing if it's 2 turns or 3 is annoying.

Also, are the chances of 2 turns and 3 turns the same? I seem to be getting 2 turn Outrages way more often... :(
 
Hey guys I'm new here :)

Got a question concerning Metagross as I breed Beldum and I want to make it perfectly and not fuck it up when I finally get a good IV'd one.

I'd like to play it as an Adamant nature AgilityGross but am not sure about the EV Spread, I know the one listed here 60HP 252Att 196Spe but is this one also suggestive? 122HP 252Att 132Spe (would outspeed Scarftran+more bulk)??

Btw I am speaking of 4th Gen (Heartgold) but maybe it's possible to make it viable for Gen 5 aswell so I can trade it over sometime and still use it (as I won't be able to change EV's at Lvl 100 once they're given ofc)
 
Yep, there are certain berries which nullify the EV-training you performed on the specific pokemon. Like this, you can always reset the EVs for that pokemon. The nature can't (obviously) be changed though.
