So theoretically, I can feed it 10 berries with the Soothe Bell in Route 7, and level it up once, and then immediately have an Espeon? And also, is the "extra boost mechanic" referring to the O-Power?

Great info, I'm really glad you posted this. But can you tell us how the Luxury Ball affects things? Asking because I'm about to start working on an Espeon this weekend, which I bred in a Luxury Ball. EDIT: Never mind, I just read the Luxury Ball stats on Serebii. I feel like it is worth noting...

Appreciate it man, thank you very much!

Sorry for the double post, but I need to know: Did Pokemon X and Y change up EV training? I know the old limit was 255 in one stat and you had to keep an eye on it yourself as to not waste the excess 3 points, but my brother and I have been experimenting and it looks like the game now limits you...

Okay, that sounds fine. I'll be on for most of the day, just let me know. I added you.

So I just finished breeding my Jolly Rough Skin Gible and I plan on making it a generic Garchomp (252 atk/spe, 4 hp,) and I'd like to know, is Swords Dance still worth using on it? Or would I be better off using Life Orb with 4 attacks? I'm not fond of the Mega set considering the speed drop...

Sorry I took so long to reply. Funny you should mention that, one of my best friends told me he has the game this past Friday and he had Noibat in his Safari! So Noibat is no longer an issue :) I'll gladly take you up on that offer though, as long as the Gooey Goodra is a female and if you don't...

I'm looking for a Friend Safari with Sliggoo and/or Noibat. If anybody could help me out I'd really appreciate it. Been looking since the middle of January, but I lost access to my 3DS up until a few days ago. Now nobody is hunting Friend Safaris, and nobody is offering. Twitter used to be...

Hi there. I found out through some forum posts that you have a Sliggoo in your Friend Safari. I've been looking for Friend Safaris with Sliggoos and/or Noibats for almost 2 weeks. Could I possibly convince you to add me so I can be done looking for at least one of these guys? I also have Dragons...

No, he means use a lead Pokemon with Synchronise to make sure you get the Timid nature you want. Then use an IV Calc when you catch it. Rinse and repeat until you're successful.

Okay, I can't find the thread for some odd reason, so I'm going to say it here. I'm looking for Friend Safaris with Sliggoo and Noibat. I have Dragons, but I don't have any friends irl that have the game so they can't trade me. Alternatively, I've got some 5 IV Modest Deino spitbacks, Timid...

Sorry, I'm still pretty new to Smogon's forum comment system. The numbers are the stats of the female/male/baby at level 50, respectively. I tried to space them out to be easy to read but it didn't work out like I had planned. I might have found the problem though, as somehow my male Magikarp...

I tried this method this morning and got a perfect Adamant Dratini on my first egg. And I spent maybe 5 or 6 hours each, breeding a perfect Gyarados, Hydreigon and Aegislash by replacing the parents and praying, so needless to say I was impressed. I didn't get Marvel Scale though, unfortunately...

I have a question about breeding: I have a female Dragonair and a male Magikarp. Dragonair has Marvel Scale. Magikarp has Swift Swim but really good IVs. My question is, can the baby Dratini inherit Marvel Scale even though the mother and father aren't the same species? And if so, how likely is...
