How much Speed should I give my Infernape? It has a Hardy nature, and it has a Speed IV of 13. No, I'm not a complete idiot, it's just that this particular Infernape is shiny, so I'd like to make it somewhat useful. 296 outruns Base 85s with +Speed natures (though only Heracross will probably run that). 290 Speed outruns neutral Base 95s. The only other numbers I'd consider going lower to are 280 to outpace neutral base 90s and 286 to in case I'm facing really slow Leafeon or something. I get the feeling that all the Pokemon with base 90 Speed or higher will be running +Speed natures, to get over 300, so maybe this is all useles...
If you're confused, here are its IVs, which make me extremely angry:
HP: 11
Attack: 21
Defense: 31 (:( :(:()
SAtk: 2 (=/)
SDef: 0
Speed: 13
As you can see, I need absolute maximum SAtk. I just really need help with Speed.
Edit: It is? Aw...well, thanks anyway, Tazzler.
