Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
I'm guessing that they gave the ship a name (The Sea Mauville) and some more backstory.
Isn't new mauville just that power plant place we went to in the original?
Where is the official announcement/information on this? I looked on the global link and google, but can't seem to find it. Especially since I'm confused about the rules (sneasel and murkrow in a "middle" cup? doubles?).
EDIT: NVM found it on serebii

Well it appears as if this is no longer really updated but, I finished 8th (yay my favorite number) in the USA on the special board season 4. Theorymon beat me out with 3rd. I probably could've gotten higher if I had played more, but I got fed up with seeing high ranked Japanese players with...
87.5/12.5 and 75/25 (and 25/75) are in the same group as 50/50. The only difference is in the gender of the resulting pokemon, and is not guaranteed. As such, you can test the IV spread and ability inheritance with the magikarps. If you want a specific gender, you can either acquire suitable...
Yeah I wasn't paying attention to the value of the random stat. Good to know. I find it particularly interesting that the one that didn't change the value is the same one that became randomized when you set the power item to the random stat, assuming your memory is correct.
There are two different possible inheritance spreads, one for monogender and one for bigender. Masuda shiny inheritance being constant was known, but its good to know that it stays across spreads.
I have already experimented with the power items, my results are in one of my earlier posts...
Assuming no everstone, the nature is locked in like the IV inheritance. This lets you use power items instead of an everstone if you have a good nature/ are making a 3-5 IV intermediate step.
And xDaydremer2: Assuming the goomy is female, you have it right. If male, you have it backwards...
Yes it is. If you get a good nature and a subpar spread, you can use power items to manipulate the spread a bit. My post on the subject.
Also, with the spreadsheet, you must now message me that you want to add to it. No one but me has actually added to it yet (correctly at least) and people...
Yes, we know that HA ability passing down is locked. What I wanted to test was if it was the same mechanism for normal ability inheritance. I'll just test it myself after pokebank comes out (I sorta have less than a box of empty space left and nothing that I want to release...).
Your experiment does not contradict my hypothesis, although I expect that like iv spreads + nature this would be affected by the bigender/monogender split and would have tossed the data on that assumption if it had contradicted. If you still have the egg in this experiment, can you check to see...
On this whole ability 1 vs 2 thing: I believe the mother's ability has a higher chance of being passed down, rather than a straight 50/50 coin flip. Because of that, there will be cases where changing the mother will change the ability, as above. However, if it works how I expect (will need to...
If it does fix it, you could in theory just delete the update info and use the method, and then re-update when you want to go online. If you can put the update on a SD card and remove it when you want to breed would be even better since then you don't need to keep downloading the update. This...
