How does Solar Power work? Does it take effect when it's Sunny? Or just activates?

 

[mingoo1109]

The userof the solar power loses HP each turn, and gets 1.5 boost to Sp.Atk when its sunny.

Serebii's pokedex says rhyhorn and hippowdon can breed but when i put them in the daycare i get the message that means they are incompatible. The rhyhorn is lvl 1, would that even make a difference?

Are you sure that you have a male and a female in the Daycare? Also, was the message "Your *Pokemon* and *Pokemon* prefer to play with other Pokemon"? If not, then they can still produce an egg, it just takes longer.

Hey, a question on stat-erasing berries. Do they clear all of the EVs or just the first 100?

Hey, a question on stat-erasing berries. Do they clear all of the EVs or just the first 100?

The first berry you use will set that stat's EVs to 100, if it's over 100. Each berry after that will reduce the stat by 10 EVs. So, to clear 252 EVs, you'd only need 11 berries.

If I hacked the TRU Manaphy event onto my game, would it be considered hacked or would we treat it like Arceus. This question is directed as people who trade in the Wifi Center obviously.

How do you get Wish onto Blissey?

How do you get Wish onto Blissey?

I believe it was a NYPC giveaway. You can't now, unfortunately.

 

[Miamisportsfan45]

Oh... damn, that sucks. Anyone know of anyone that has a good IV'd wishbliss on Smogon by any chance?

Thanks Justin by the way.

Why is this thread stickied now?

 

[the_artic_one]

Because there have been a lot of threads recently that should have been posted here.

 

[Miamisportsfan45]

This is better off being stickied though, in my opinion.

Anyway, anyone know where I can find a good Wish Bliss?

 

[Xênaz]

Does Solar Power take away 1/10th of your HP each turn in the Sun? Or is it 1/16th? Anyone know?

 

[Thomaz]

For the Regirock in my thread, I have been thinking about an EV spread.

Impish
IVs: 27 / 29 / 24 / 30 / 27 / 2
EVs: 224 HP, 32 Atk, 252 SpDef

Does this seem okay? 224 HP allows for maximum Leftovers + 1, maxed SpDef let's it take random Special moves and the rest in Atk.

In a double battle, does Shadow Tag prevent your partner from switching as well, or only the enemy?

Enemy.

[ABILITY]
Shadow Tag ***
[SHORT DESC]
Prevents switching.
[LONG DESC]
Enemy Pokemon cannot switch out unless they have the ability Shadow Tag. Pokemon can also escape by using U-Turn or Baton Pass, or by holding the item Shed Shell.

Why don't people use Stealth Rock/Spikes on the same set on Skarmory rather than choosing one?

 

[Volteon]

I do this with Forretress. I hardly have time to Gyro Ball, so I just took it off and placed Stealth Rock there.
It does nothing against ghosts, but it'd do nothing even with GyroBall. I like Leftovers recovery, so I can't OHKO Gengar, so I just put a decent Pursuit in my team for that.

Hold Start and select when you go to a pokemon's summary. The summary should resemble a pokemon egg summary, and your pokemon should have the animation of the egg (lol). Check your TMs afterwards. They'll list the IVs in the first 6 TMs in this order

HP
Atk
Def
Spd
SAtk
SDef

Focus Sash does work.

Focus Band should work, but thats really risky.
